Holy. Shit. Funky is just not the word.
buuuhhh you suck, this is not an exclusive, and antiquiet sucks because they like dave matthews band and paramore! if you want some exclusive stuff talk with me and i’ll give you nothing because i’m that cool
awesome! nobody makes skeletons dance like Liam Lynch !
Liam Lynch for president! :)
@Flick – nobody called this an exclusive but you, jackass. Your nonsense is a better fit for the messageboards you came from. Doesn’t translate here. p.s. We trashed the Paramore album. Get a clue.
I wanna dance to this shit! Groovy!
Ya…this is nice…much better than New Fang.
Waiting sucks, somebody leak it already…
Mick from Fleetwood is a douche, there I said it. Now hush and enjoy.
Mind Eraser, No Chaser is a free download on iTunes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Play that funky music, white boy! Anything that makes me shake it while in a seated position is a score. And ironically, yet unfortunately I was just having a conversation about “Play That Funky Music” being Vanilla Ice’s only other musical claim to “fame”.
Vanilla Ice covered “Play that Funky Music”? I musta blocked that one out. :)
