Pretend To Be (2008 Demo)

[hawk]

For those people who pre-ordered LPUX, what do you think of the song?

 

It's different, but I like it.

[Ashwhisker]

It's a cool song. The guitar style reminded me of No Roads Left, it's still a very MTM track in my opinion. I like the part towards the end where everything drops out except for the drums and bass, and the lyrcis are really catchy. It's pretty poppy, but I like it.

Chester sings it all except for the bridge, where Mike sings the Oh-ohs. Then, Chester joins in on the oh-ohs and Mike goes to harmony.

guitar epic

[Astat]

It's okay. Pretty run-of-the-mill song that they probably churned out in a couple days.

Exactly.

 

Then I listened to it and it grew on me and i love it.

 

Buts it's generic stuff, for those people saying this is how ATS should be, dont make me LOL.

[avo17]

Yeah I like this song but the lyrics aren't that great and the verses' melodies aren't as catchy as the chorus. I like the guitars and the oh-y bridge though.

[ChuckCheese]

It's a cool song. Very chill but still has a nice groove to it.

[Pez]

I actually really like this song. It would be a very radio friendly song.

Thats a sweet guitar riff too. Big props for a good song.

[FaiNt]

So, this is what LP sounds like when they Jam.

 

is this one of LP most difficult song(s) to play? lol

[hawk]

You say that you're proud of me / oh

You take something out of me / so-oh predictable

Why do I have to see this through? / Why do I have to take this?

Isn't there something I can't do?

To make myself finally say that,

 

Theres no give taking this too far

Exposing who you are for all to see

but not the one who you pretend to be

 

You stop with apologies / oh

Then take another shot at me / so-oh predictable

Why do I have to see this through? / Why do I have to take this?

Isn't there something I can't do?

To make myself finally say that,

 

Theres no give taking this too far

Exposing who you are for all to see

but not the one who you pretend t-

Theres no give taking this too far

Exposing who you are for all to see

but not the one who you pretend to be

 

[oh]

 

No give taking this too far

Exposing who you are for all to see

but not the one who you pretend t-

Theres no give taking this too far

Exposing who you are for all to see

but not the one who you pretend to be

[Sucre06]

Chester a straight romantic in this song 

 

 .....Really super demo-song PRETEND TO BE

[Ashwhisker]

You say that you're proud of me / oh

You take something out of me / so-oh predictable

Why do I have to see this through? / Why do I have to take this?

Isn't there something I can do?

To make myself finally say this

 

No, you've taken this too far

Exposing who you are, for all to see

you're not the one that you pretend to be

 

You stop with apologies / oh

Then take another shot at me / so-oh predictable

Why do I have to see this through? / Why do I have to take this?

Isn't there something I can do?

To make myself finally say this,

 

No, you've taken this too far

Exposing who you are, for all to see

you're not the one that you pretend,

Just know, you've taken this too far

Exposing who you are, for all to see

you're not the one that you pretend to be

 

[oh]

 

No, you've taken this too far

Exposing who you are, for all to see

you're not the one that you pretend,

Just know, you've taken this too far

Exposing who you are, for all to see

you're not the one that you pretend to be

A couple of those I'm not completely sure about, but here are my corrections.

[leftshoe18]

I like the song. It's pretty neat, but nothing special.

[Danche]

A great song! Very catchy and radio friendly. Really enjoy the guitar it sounds awesome.

[Geki]

I love this song, something about it I love. The lyrics are obviously about Sam IMO, like In Pieces.

[hawk]

Thanks Ash for the corrections, you are correct.

[Geki]

I'm pretty sure it's 'Then you take something out on me' instead of 'Then you take something out of me'.

[Ashwhisker]

Thanks Ash for the corrections, you are correct.

 

I'm pretty sure it's 'Then you take something out on me' instead of 'Then you take something out of me'.

Could be indeed.

 

I hope we end up with official lyrics.

[leftshoe18]

Could be indeed.

 

I hope we end up with official lyrics.

I'm sure that Mike's blog will be flooded with lyric requests and then he'll post them.

Who is Sam?
