Just like to add that this song was used on the soundtrack for "Black Hawk Down", a truly magnificent film, & what a great song to go with it! |

Actually I've been a huge fan of MxPx for ages & I have 3 of their albums. That does not, however, bias me against Simple Plan just cos they are more poppy... I'd never try & persuade someone to like a band, I really dont care what you think, I jsut wish people wud broaden their horizons a little & stop being so narrow-minded |

I find MrBigThought's comments very interesting, cos I thought I had this song's meaning all worked out, & I agree with most of what people have said on here, but then I watched the video on Sugarcult's official website, & it really flummoxed me... it seemed to be suggesting something completely different, like poverty or something. I don't know if the band are religious (in fact I dont remember them ever using swear words in their songs) but I thought this song could almost have religious connotations - the "he" being jesus or god, the references to confessing, & I don't know... its not what I would have thought on my first few listenings to the song, it's just watching that damn video - it really confused me!! |

Yeh, Midtown, whoever mentioned them, they absolutely rock!!!! I luv this song too, altho I didn't always - at first it was just TOO pop-punk, even tho that's my fave type of music... but, it's really grown on me, & now I just cant get enuff of it!! Mark Hoppus on backing vocals, what cud be tastier!
Oh, and xurfavoriteweaponx, why be ashamed to like them because theyre popular. I liked sum-41 before anyone had heard of them, & despite the huge increase in popularity & all the crap that everyone says about both them & their fans, I have never stopped liking them to this day... Don't be swayed by popular opinion, its always so much more rewarding to rise above it - you mite say what the fuck? liking sum-41 is not going against the majority, but as a matter of fact, I know far more people who absolutely hate them than those who listen to em. |

W H A T E V E R. Who gives a shit... if you hate this band & you hate this song, why are you wasting your time hanging round here? Obviously there's gonna be GC fans here. Oh sorry, thats the point isnt it? Youre trying to piss people off... why? I'm sorry, I just dont see the gain in it. Personally, I luv them & luv this song, & I listen to music that I like, not what other people say about it. I hate the whole MTV scene as much as anyone, i hate it when people like stuff just to fit in, but I honestly like this song & this band just for what they are. And who on earth said that this is true, fast punk, or even that GC themselves reckon they are? For me theyve always been pop-punk and who can argue with that? its what they are. And pop-punk is meant to be simple, just somethin to listen to & make you happy (if u like this kind of thing). & if you dont like it, fine. it doesnt make a hell of a difference. Oh, & what kind of band would not take up the chance of touring with rancid?
Oh, & can I just point out that one of u guys who was trashing this song a few minutes ago has actually (presumably accidentally) given this song a five-star rating... obviously you guys really know your minds so well :/ |

well not being american i can relate to much of what you're saying but don't see things in exactly the same way... but i do agree more than anyone that Bush is an absolute asshole, & by the way I found Michael Moore's Oscar speech extremely amusing & very effective too... obviously he knows his stuff (I'm sure you may do too) & is liable to think his own thoughts & tell everyone... BUT from what i can see in my country(UK) at least, so many of the protesters & those opposing this war know absolutely nothing about it whatsoever... their ideas are black-and-white, and that's what does my head in. These people probably never watch the news, they don't properly think about the consequences of anything - it seems to me they've never had the chance of protesting before, so now seems a fine enough time to try it.
OK, Saddam is hardly as powerful in world terms as Hitler was, and I wudn't particularly ever suggest that, but that just emphasizes a certain point- some people aren't bothered about getting rid of him because he doesn't touch their day-to-day lives... but the Iraqi civilians do have to live with it & pictures today of countless coffins & human bones make me feel that conflict has come too late if anything. I am not the sort of person who believes everything that is put in front of me - in our countries thankfully we do have the right to have independent thoughts & express them without getting shot, & these are my feelings, that's all. I'd never dream of conforming, & I think it's great that some Americans have the strength of mind to break away from the whole patriotic way of living (which I'm afraid is the side of America we tend to see most often on TV). It is awful to think of good coming out of such a horrible event but maybe it will, if more people come out in the open & express their views against the capitalist system.
And well, I've never liked Tony Blair (even before he was elected) so I wud be more than happy to see both him & Bush stand down once all this has *hopefully* blown over. |

Sure, I agree that war is never a good thing but how many people wud have been against WWII & the thought of getting rid of Hitler? I wudn't call myself pro-war or anything but I do think that since it has begun we shud support our troops as much as possible. What is their morale going to be like when they turn around and find their own country is against what they are risking their lives for? I totally sympathise with those families who have already lost dear relatives in this horrible battle, & it almost seems for nothing if no-one believes in the cause.
As for the reasons for going to war, there is a small joke in which Bush says "I have thought of 710 reasons why we shud go to war with Iraq" then somebody says "no George, you've got the paper the wrong way round"
710=OIL!!
It's not a very likeable reason but that's the truth of it, surely. |

Well, being English, I abhor the way Tony Blair goes along with Bush’s every comment like some lost puppy. As for the whole argument that’s just been going on, I’m afraid I don’t seem to be as knowledgeable as most of you guys, but what I can tell is that many people on here are seeing things far too simplistically. To start with, it is ridiculous to generalise about “Americans” — it is far too vast and cosmopolitan country to place all of its citizens under one label — I mean how on earth do you define “an American?” We also should remember that it was not only ‘Americans’ who were killed in the Sep 11th crisis — there were people of other nationalities in both the plane itself & the trade center if I remember rightly. That aside, to some extent I am against the over-patriotic American society which the whole nation seems to conform to. (I’m not being ignorant about this, I do have cousins in the US who tell me how they have to fit in at school.) And I also strongly disagree with the way the American media seemed to handle the whole crisis, as if it was some great publicity stunt to demonstrate their all-important strength and “God Bless America” attitude. In my opinion, I think it is usually best to handle such a horrible event as this without the rose-tinted glasses, to look at it more sensibly and objectively, to find the best solution (did that sound far too English?) OK, so I don’t agree with the way the US handled the event, but I do not believe they were responsible for starting the war issue. World superpowers are always despised by those less fortunate countries — it is human nature — and the US didn’t have to do anything to incite hatred from the Afghans. Just look at how the British Empire faded after years of domination. Hopefully we (Britain) as a country are not as hated today, & we all know that in the 20th/21st centuries, the US has become the dominant force which, whether we like it or not, governs much of the world’s affairs. And I, like many others, do not completely agree with what they are doing, and planning to do — I’m not professing to know anything about politics, but good reason would suggest that there must be an alternative to the all-guns-blazing resolution. |

I luv what this song is saying - I guess we all feel very alone sometimes, and people can often seem really cold and heartless. Some days I go home & feel like the world is against me (who'd be a teenager?!) & I think that's what this song is relating to. Just rely on yourself when the human race has let you down. |

Oh no, I agree entirely with u NFGprincess - I still adore a lot of bands which are now hugly popular (I'm a Blink fan, put it that way!), I just like to listen to a range of songs from any band, not just the singles which make the radiowaves or get into MTV charts. Some bands, such as Millencolin springs to mind, never seem to release what I think as their best songs anyways, which is why I much prefer to download rather than watch the music TV channels. |

I can relate to what many of you are saying, don't wanna waste comments space, but for ages I've liked a lot of 'unknown' bands such as [spunge], Alkaline Trio and believe it or not Incubus, who whenever I mentioned my friends looked at me blankly. But as soon as these bands started appearing on Kerrang! and becoming popular, every1 else suddenly acts as if they're the biggest fans & the only songs that matter are the ones released as singles. I woz watchin NFG at the Leeds fest & every1 sang along to 'My Friend's Over You' but as soon as 'Understatement' came on they were like "huh, what's this?" Pisses me off. |

This is a pretty nice, simple song which I don't think is meant to say anything too profound. I like the idea tho of a guy who just wants to get away from the life he has now, a nice simple concept i think. |
