    Interesting in that it came from a Christian singer, but:

    "Without Condition" - Ginny Owens

    You find this situation just a bit uncomfortable;
    You'd rather stay far away from reality.
    For you to understand would be clearly impossible;
    So you shut your eyes and swear you can see.
    Claiming there is a God, but does that mean anything?
    So condescending to those that you don't understand;
    Just too easy to make them your enemies.
    Like an ostrich, you bury your head in the sand,
    And then shout about all the things you believe.
    But if there is a God, don't you think He can see
    What you really mean? What you're doing?

    Chorus:
    You can't find the answers
    Till you learn to question;
    You won't appear stupid
    Just ask for direction.
    You're insecure and it clouds your perception
    So stop and listen
    And learn a lesson in love without condition.

    So place all the souls that you know
    in their own little box;
    Quite convenient to handle them that way;
    You're the only one you know who carries a cross
    You don't care what they care about anyway.
    You talk to your God,
    Prayin' for those who sin,
    For their eyes to be opened.

    Chorus:
    You can't find the answers
    Till you learn to question;
    You won't appear stupid
    Just ask for direction.
    You're insecure and it clouds your perception
    So stop and listen
    And learn a lesson in love without condition.

    A song about tolerance and love being the important lesson. What are the odds? Maybe there is hope for the world...

    (Oh, also on the Roswell series. Did I mention I like the producers taste in music?)

    eek it's scary when people get into lyric typing mode ...

    ok - the new Korn album, untouchables, is amazing ... however ... my most favourite rock album of all time is

    Korn - 'Follow the Leader'

    also i love:

    • hed(PE) - broke
    • system of a down - toxicity
    • pitchshifter - infotainment?

    these albums are constantly in my cd player ... x

    Hmmm...I think we left the rock requirement some time ago. But, that said, Liz Phair? You don't find her...I dunno...a bit whiney?

    One of my personal faves has always been Carol King. Love the Tapestry album.

    I'm also a sucker for just about anything by Carly Simon.

    Just remembered another one...So Much for the Afterglow by Everclear

    Brian

    Thanks Moe for that explination of the lyrics, you've brightened up this otherwise dreary day in Chicago. That song even means more to me now.

    Whiny?

    Sheryl Crow is Whiny, Alanis Morrisette-whiny...

    C'mon when liz phair howls into the mike, "I wanna be your blowjob queen" you find that whiny?

  • Xander

    Sheryl Crow is formulaic, not whiny. Alanis Morrisette is whiny.

    Granted, my exposure to Liz Phair is fairly limited. What I had heard just came across as...whiny, sort of.
