rebellious_L Posted November 18, 2009 Author Share Posted November 18, 2009 We'll take what we wanna! Yeah we'll take what we wanna! I never understood the hate for this song. It's a nice, fast-paced song. It's funny, people used to mock me for liking this song when I used to like it, but now that I've converted to their view people tell me it's a good song. Oh well, it was actually one of my favourites off of this album when it was first released, and then I put the album away for 2 years and since I've started listening to it again I haven't liked it at all. I've always enjoyed the blatant narcistic lyrics though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vance Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I've heard a lot of negative talk about North American For Life in the past on here as well, and always really liked that song. I think every time I listened to that song I would wonder how so many big fans didn't appreciate how good it is. It's a perfect example of typical sarcastic writing from MG combined with a killer beat and sound. Same type of song as Everything is Automatic in my mind. Glad to see people talking good about it. I'm not the only one!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as i look to see who agrees i think there is only one vote for htb rooms version. I surely hope its life in this competition is short lived Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that the original is that great but the Rooms version is just so DREADFULLY, painfully almost, BLAND, DULL and BORRRRRING. Sorry but I felt compelled to say something about this unbelievably atrocious choice. Easily one of the worst things Matt's done. Still just an opinion though.

Still just an opinion though. ;) Ya I agree with you there, I honestly haven't listened to this song since the second time I listened to rooms the day after I bought it. Your post was so angry it inspired me to do so and I couldn't even get halfway through, just couldn't stand it. The lyrics to this song lose all their meaning when slowed down like that, it just doesn't work at all IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
