Recommended Posts

EXPLOSIVE AS FUCK, I LOVE IT

 

Lyrics:

 

Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you now
Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you now

Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you now
Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you now

This is that gather round it
And wonder where I found it
This is that wake up naked agent, have your tour rerouted
This is that drama come up pain and there ain't no way around it
Cause somehow still it's hard to know what I could say about it
I buckled up
Told myself to suck it up
I was scared to death to get up there
And spill my fucking guts
I was saying "pull your stupid self together buttercup"
Get it cracking, Back in Black until you have them Thunderstruck
But

Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you now, oh
Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you, about you

No
There's not a single thing that I could say
Not a single solitary
Every meaning changing shade
Even when there's not connection back to you in any line
All the sudden it's about you
And it gets me everytime

But
What the fuck is left to offer anyway?
When I've basically been writing since the Raiders ran L.A.
I'm afraid that maybe I said everything there is to say
Maybe I should make an exit while there's ways to get away

Can't find the words to a memory
But these are just words to a melody
Find something that works, twisted symmetry
But only a quick broken remedy
And I'd give anything, the truth
Pick up the words I'd bring home to you
How can I make it?
Put a smile and change my attitude
And even though it's not about you
Everything is all about you
All...
All about you

(Oooooh)

Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you now
Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you now

Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you now
Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you now

Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you now
Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you now

Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you now
Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you now

(Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you now
Even when it's not about you, about you
All the sudden it's about you now)

 

lmfao the actual lyrics are on genius, but I was almost right with everything

Whether it's right or wrong, I honestly think people will ask about Chester and Linkin Park forever. Even if Linkin Park makes new music again and tours, Chester will still be at the forefront. The man was a pure legend and he'll never be forgotten, especially with the name ''Linkin Park''. Most people think of Chester and Mike when they think of Linkin Park and they will forever be intertwined with it. Just my opinion. Mike was Chester's brother, he was extremely close with him. That's partially why people don't understand that Linkin Park isn't like a lot of these other bands who have lost vocalists. Chester and Mike had a bond that was very unique and special, IMO. And they had a 20 year career practically. Massive album cycles, spending massive amounts of time together on the road and in the studio, etc. Mike even saved Chester's life a few times basically. I don't think Mike will ever get angry or sick of hearing/talking about Chester. He will continue to create music for himself and for the fans, etc. I think this album was really about his grieving process of losing Chester so I think he knew going in that releasing these really personal songs and stuff, he would be asked about Chester a lot. Mike is also very smart, he knows the business, etc.

It's a good song to sit and bob your head to. Not my favorite but still enjoyable. Could have benefited from additional verses..or at least maybe a whole minute of "about you" at the end.

Agree with this.

My least favorite of the bunch, but still a very good song overall. Kind of glad in a weird way there's a divided response to this one, gives more of an incentive to discuss it.

 

That's a good point, when the full album drops, I bet the discussion will be interesting in a lot of ways. We still have a lot of new songs to hear and I'm sure a lot of them will be different like this one.
