"Sorrow"

Father can you hear me?
How have I let you down?
I curse the day that I was born
and all the sorrow in this world

Let me take you to the herding ground
where all good men are trampled down
Just to settle a bet that could not be won
between a prideful father and his son

Will you guide me now for I can't see a reason
for the suffering and this long misery
What if every living soul could be upright and strong?
Well then I do imagine

There will be (sorrow)
Yeah there will be (sorrow)
And there will be sorrow no more

When all soldiers lay their weapons down
or when all kings and all queens relinquish their crowns
Or when the only true messiah rescues us
from ourselves it's easy to imagine

There will be (sorrow)
Yeah there will be (sorrow)
And there will be sorrow no more

There will be (sorrow)
Yeah there will be (sorrow)
And there will be sorrow no more

Yeah there will be (sorrow)
Yeah there will be (sorrow)
And there will be sorrow no more

1. Hey, those guys ain't half bad. In fact, they're damn good. I'm off to youtube now.

2. Glad you like them. They're one of my favorites.

I thought there would be more Bad Religion fans on this board. Where are you at?

:shrug:

3. I just watched it again. They're better than not bad; in fact they're terrific. Straight-ahead

rock, well-written lyrics, and you can actually HEAR the vocals.

I'm going to buy some of their CDs.

4. Big BR fan

I think the lead singer (if not the others too) is a Harvard grad.

5. Greg Graffin (lead singer)

from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greg_Graffin

Graffin double majored in anthropology and geology as an undergraduate at the University of California, Los Angeles. He went on to earn a masters degree in geology from UCLA and received his Ph.D. in evolutionary paleontology from Cornell University. However, according to a video clip originally from the Bad Religion official website and also available from The Cornell Evolution Project homepage, the PhD thesis was officially a Zoology PhD thesis, supervised by William B. Provine at Cornell University. The thesis was entitled "Monism, Atheism and the Naturalist Worldview: Perspectives from Evolutionary Biology". It is described as being essentially an evolutionary biology PhD but having also relevance to history and philosophy of science.

6. Greatest band ever.

Every album is a lesson in civics and philosophy -- and, usually, vocabulary. :D

7. Favortie band when I was teenager.

I got backstage/photo passes and hung out with them back in '99, when they played Anchorage. B-)

One of my favorite bands. They brought me back to punk in the mid 90s.
