OLP

 

ive been listening to the new Our Lady Peace song "Angels Losing Sleep"... i dont know if its just me but i swear i hear the bass riff from the Coldplay song "Ode To Deodorant"...... its kinda hidden in the song a little bit its in the begging and the middle.. its just the bassline in "Ode To Deodorant" is very unique and i think Our Lady Peace defintly uses it in that song.. lol

:dozey: Uh... I just gave both songs another listen... the bass lines are totally different.

 

I'm not sure what you heard, though I suppose the rythms of the two lines are similar enough in a couple of spots that you could see a similarity if you could only hear less than half of the notes.... *shrug*

 

Anyway, the official OLP thread is here:

If OLP ever made a 'best of' album, it would go like this:

 

1. RK Intro

2. Right Behind You (Mafia)

3. RK 2029

4. In Repair

5. Life

6. Middle of Yesterday

7. Are You Sad?

8. RK 2029 (Part 2)

9. Made to Heal

10. RK 1949

11. Everyone's a Junkie

12. RK On Death

13. All My Friends

14. If You Believe

15. The Wonderful Future

16. RK and Molly

 

:D

:D

 

lol

 

Honestly though, I think I might do this for best of:

 

1. Superman's Dead

2. Thief

3. In Repair

4. Life

5. Angels/Losing/Sleep

6. Starseed

7. Clumsy

8. Made to Heal

9. 4AM

10. Is Anybody Home?

11. Somewhere Out There

12. Boy

13. Right Behind You (Mafia)

14. Middle of Yesterday

15. Potato Girl

 

I think that's good.

Add 'Are You Sad?' , 'Stealing Babies', 'Will the Future Blame Us?' and the live version of 'Naveed / Life' and that would be one great album. :D

^ Ha you know I actually went out and bought that book just because OLP made an album using it's name. Great fascinating read.

After you've read the book the words to 'Made to Heal', 'In Repair', 'All My Friends', 'If You Believe', 'Life' and 'Everyone's a Junkie' make so much more sense.

 

That is a great book, you're right.

 

Glad to see another olp fan somewhere in the world. :)

2. "The Birdman"

3. "Naveed"

4. "Superman's Dead"

5. "Clumsy"

6. "4am"

7. "One Man Army"

8. "Is Anybody Home?"

9. "Thief"

10. "In Repair"

Not too bad, actually. I think it's pretty close to my own. Anyways, I'm kinda confused: Naveed was released in 1994, 12 years ago, not 10. Who knows?

I had no idea! Any news about a new album tho? Their last was Healthy in the Paranoid Times, right?

Well personally I'm really into OLP, they're my favorite canadian band. Happiness is not a fish that you can catch is an AWESOME album!

What is the name of the book? I want to read it.

I don't actually think that was the first time it was played at our concert. http://ourladypeace.cc/tourarchive.htm It was played a month or so earlier.

shhh...but it was one of the first times so whichever

Yes it was within the first 20 times. :P still pretty cool.

What is the name of the book? I want to read it.

 

"The Age of Spiritual Machines: When Computers Exceed Human Intelligence" by Ray Kurzweil (the man who reads the passages on the album, aka R.K.)

 

It's quite interesting if you like reading about what's probably going to happen with computers in the next few years. (Though on a sidenote, the book is now 6 years old)

I'll see if I can find it at Chapters or something or maybe order it online. Doesn't the cd also mention one of George Orwell's books?

R.K. (1949-97)

 

"1949

George Orwell portrays

A chilling world in which computers

Are used by large beaucracies to

Monitor and enslave the population, in his book 1984."

I want to read 1984. I read Animal Farm by George Orwell in high school. It was a good read.

"Jack Kerouac/On the Road and in my head"

 

 

 

 

-I'm trying to come up with an essay on this book and another one, its brutal.

Yeah....I really don't like Gravity. It's too normal.

Gravity was the first OLP album I bought. I really enjoy some of the songs on it, but it is an average album in my opinion.

 

I enjoy Do You Like It, Sorry, and Bring Back the Sun

"Raine: You guys are all real people out there, right? Real people have real problems, and a problem...I find with a lot of people is, usually at some point in your life, there's a person very close to you, that you love, that needs help. The problem is that, usually, the time that the person needs the most help, is the time that they don't want your help. This next song is about that person that

everybody has, or will have. It's about trying to connect with them and help them and save them

and all those things that you wanna do but sometimes as human beings you can't do. It's called Are You Sad. ...Three, four..."

 

 

Those words have been so relevant to my life lately.

I used to listen to the them when I was 14. I was obsessed with 'Superman's dead'. Mhm, havent listened to them in ages.

I had gone for a long time without listening to them but lately I can't stop.
