On a better note I know everyone lost their shit over this girl's cover of Be Quiet and Drive a while back and I've noticed she also did Change. I like it quite a lot.

omg (positive way!)

not a fan at all

Ugh...is there ever going to be a female cover of a Deftones song that doesn't try to inject semi-hipster Lana Del Ray and Colbie Caillat frog vocals?  As I've said before, this ranks almost just as bad as the countless latino cover vocalists that have shit vocals and even shittier English pronunciation.

I think that's far from the truth but I love those lyrics for there abstractness, every listener can detract their own meaning and it means people can really connect to the music because in their eyes the song is about something they are familiar with, but in reality it's probably not, White Pony's a great example of this because there is a ton of people who are all bonded to the same songs for such a wide scope of different reasons.

Why far from the truth, because a professor of English didn't mention them? but yeah the rest I pretty much agree with.

I taste you much better off teeth taste of white skin on red leather check the claws we got night time cavity to come in downtown pony work your pitch / I came to in feathers like leaves and you rubbed me together with claws like we got night time cavity to come in downtown pony work your pitch / day time dancer I'll come inside got my teacher now carve your niche

Well there's just a long list of people who do it better than them, Shakespeare is probably the king of it basically every line uses it to great effect.

nah, Shakespeare is a bore, I'm sure he has better than what I've known, but I don't care much for what the partial college system has to say about much.

Yeah that's sad a lot of people find the language too daunting and get put off, also a lot of Shakespeare's word play is lost on modern readers but once you figure out the language his talent becomes apparent. All his work is full of clever puns and metaphors and he had a great understanding of human nature, the themes of his work are still relevant to modern society. Chino's still awesome though he actually writes a lot like Shakespeare, lots of metaphors and hidden meanings but with modern language.

i'm so sick of this guy's weed addiction, he's almost forty-five years old and still acts like he's 15

How does he act like he's 15? he never brags about it he just keeps it to himself and only talks about it when asked, as far as i'm concerned he's an adult and he can do what he want's, and weeds not even a big deal there are much worst habits he could have.

Well, despite whatever looks like he's enjoying it.
Good for Him.

there's plenty of pictures on twitter or whatever. it's still horrible for your mind and body if you do it daily, probably the most underrated drug of all time, even more than alcohol

I think people probably exaggerate

I guess he believes the calm it gives him is better than the possible side effects, Not a bad risk if you ask me the chances of getting seriously damaged from weed are probably less than him getting hit by a car tomorrow. I think alcohol is a lot more underrated mainly because they sell it in stores, I think in moderation it's all right but by selling it the public get the false impression it's safe,Plus  I've never heard of any one dying from weed,I haven't even seen someone become aggressive because of weed, most of the negative stuff that happens around marijuana is because it's illegal so like every other illegal drug you get the criminals involved, I'm not even a weed smoker but I think it's ridiculous that it's illegal especially when they still sell tobacco despite knowing how many negative effects there are, surely if alcohol and cigarettes are deemed fit for sale with there long list of side effects weed should be.
