I'm so sick and tired of the shit on the radio
And MTV, they only play the same thing
No matter where I go
I see Ashanti in the video
I want some thing more

We are in need of a musical revolution
We are in need of

How can you make your way through the world today
When everybody is so angry?
And what we hear affects our hearts
There's got to be a better way to communicate
So show your love not hate

We are in need of a musical revolution
(We're so tired of the same old)
We are in need of some spiritual evolution
(We're so tired of the same old, same old)

We are in need of love
We are in need of love

I'm calling, calling, I'm calling out
Calling you
Doesn't anybody wanna do something new?

I'm calling all creators in the movement
It's time to offer a solution to the dilution of what we love
And the greats would be so disappointed
'Cause we've sold our souls for what we don't own anymore

We are in need of love
Lets start a musical revolution
(We're so tired of the same old)
We are in need of some lyrical evolution
(We're so tired of the same old, same old)

I'm so sick and tired of the shit on the radio
And MTV they only play the same thing
No matter where I go
I see Ashanti in the video
I want something

'Cause I'm sick and tired of the shit on the radio
And MTV they only play the same thing
No matter where I go
I see Britney on my video screen
I want something more

Lets start a musical revolution
I want something more
Lets start a musical revolution

Tell me why
A grown man can rape a little girl
But we still hear his shit on the radio
A grown-ass man can videotape a little girl
But we still see his mug up on our video screens?

I want something more
I want something

    I cant believe no one has commented on this song... I really like it. Its about how all the music of today sounds the same and we need something more, something different.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
