Daily Dose 7/12 Shinedown - Call Me
July 12, 2008 by Scott
“Call me a sinner, call me a saint
Tell me it’s over I’ll still love you the same
Call me your favorite, call me the worst
Tell me it’s over I don’t wan’t you to hurt
It’s all that I can say. So, I’ll be on my way
I’ll always keep you inside, you healed my
Heart and my life… And you know I try.”
Shiedown - Call Me
Here is a cool song from Shinedown’s new album The Sound Of Madness. No comments to be said about this song. It’s just one of many great songs from The Sound Of Madness. Lyrics after the fold.
Daily Dose 7/11 Aerosmith - Janie’s Got A Gun
July 11, 2008 by Scott
“She had to take him down easy
And put a bullet in his brain
She said cause nobody believes me
The man was such a sleeze
He aint never gonna be the same”
Aerosmith - Janie’s Got A Gun~
Closing out the week of Aerosmith Daily Doses with Janie’s Got A Gun. Great song, great video. Now a few words…there is absolutely no denying that Aerosmith know how to put on a great show. With one of the biggest mouths and widest ranges of vocals Steven Tyler has it all. One of the greatest front-men in rock and roll backed up by such a cohesive and talented band, there is nothing anyone can really say to discredit a band that has been going strong for over 35 years. There are only a handful of bands still around that can fit into that bracket. The band has seen their ups and downs, ins and outs of rehab but have still held strong throughout the years and still never sold less than gold records even in the digital age of today. Although the band has always had a pop-driven sound to them, these days it’s more evident but I still can’t find a negative thing to say about Aerosmith. How much longer can we expect Aerosmith to keep on doing what they do? Who honestly knows but Aerosmith. No matter where they go or when they stop we will always have everything they have left in their wake of their rock n roll legacy. Lyrics after the fold… Read more
Daily Dose 7/10 Aersomith - Big Ten Inch Record
July 10, 2008 by Scott
“Got me the strangest woman
Believe it, this chicks no sinch
When I wanna get her goin
Then I whip out my big ten inch”
Aerosmith -Big Ten Inch~
Big Ten Inch what?? You’ll have to listen to the song or read the lyrics to find out…but chances are if your not an Aerosmith fan or have never heard the song before, your guess is probably not correct. Another older classic Aerosmith hit. The blues are obviously an influence of the band, and why wouldn’t the blues be an influence. The blues pretty much influence every rock song in history and if you think I’m wrong then you need to check the history of rock and roll. Lyrics after the fold.
Daily Dose 7/9 Aerosmith - Sweet Emotion
July 9, 2008 by Scott
“You talk about things and nobody cares
You’re wearing other things that nobody wears
You’re calling my name but you gotta make clear
I can’t say baby where I’ll be in a year “
What’s there to really tell about Sweet Emotion. Another classic Aerosmith hit about groupies and living the rock star, love on the run lifestyle. Lyrics after the fold.
Daily Dose 7/8 Aerosmith - Dream On
July 8, 2008 by Scott
“I know what nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know its everybodys sin
You got to lose to know how to win”
Aerosmith - Dream On~
It doesn’t get much more classic Aerosmith than this. The music has a deep sound to it as do the lyrics have a deep message. “Everybody’s got their dues in life to pay” and “You got to lose to know how to win”. Those are two statements to live by. I’m not the first to say this and I won’t be the last. Nothing is handed to you in life without a price. One way or another you have to pay for the spoils of life and work hard to achieve your dreams through perseverance and pain…Dream big, Dream on! Lyrics after the fold. Read more
Double Dose Aerosmith - Back In The Saddle
July 7, 2008 by Scott
“I’m back in the saddle again
I’m back
I’m back in the saddle again
I’m riding, I’m loading up my pistol
I’m riding, I really got a fistful
I’m riding, I’m shining up my saddle
I’m riding, this snake is gonna rattle”
Aerosmith - Back In The Saddle~
Back In The Saddle was one of my favorites as a kid. I don’t know what it is about this song, but it just gets you going. Used in various movie sound tracks, this song is undoubtedly an anthem for someone getting back on their feet, making a comeback, coming back to life, etc. There is really not much more I can say about this song besides it’s just a classic Aerosmith song. Enjoy the live, 20 year old performance from Houston 1988. Lyrics after the video.
Daily Dose 7/7 Aerosmith - Angel
“You’re the reason I live
You’re the reason I die
You’re the reason I give
When I break down and cry
Don’t need no reason why”
Aerosmith - Angel~
The beginning of a weeks worth of Daily Aerosmith Doses Begins today! Of all the great power ballads that Aerosmith has come out with, Angel has hands down got to be my favorite. From the explosive way it starts to the chorus, everything about this song screams classic 80’s power ballad at it’s best. Since Permanent Vacation, the album that Angel is off of, Aerosmith have seemed to find a niche that works by putting at least one power ballad on every album since. That’s what most people know them for now. The younger rock enthusiasts of today know them more for their power ballads from such songs as Crazy and Don’t Wanna Miss A Thing. I grew up on Aerosmith and a cassette tape of their Aerosmith Greatest Hits (The classic red label) was never far from my tape player. Lyrics after the fold. Read more
Daily Dose 7/6 Trapt - Headstrong
July 6, 2008 by Scott
Seeing that I just did a bit of news and review for Trapt’s upcoming album Only Through The Pain, I figured why not post the Daily Dose for them as well with the song that everyone knows by the band. Headstrong.
Conclusions manifest, your first impression’s got to be your very best
I see your full of shit and that’s alright
That’s how you play I guess you get through every night
Well now that’s over
Trapt - Headstrong~
Lyrics after The fold…

Daily Dose 7/4 Sublime - Doin’ Time
July 4, 2008 by Scott
"Me and my girl,
we got this relationship.
I love her so bad but she treats me like…
on lock down like a penitentiary.
she spreads her lovin’ all
over and when she get home there’s none left for me"
Sublime - Doin’ Time~
This is a nice slow groove dub song. With this I’m going to close out a week of Sublime Daily Doses. Perhaps this is how I’m going to do every week for the "Daily Dose" by featuring a band of the week and maybe even a Double Dose, with another band every now and then. Lyrics after the fold.
Daily Dose 7/3 Sublime - Badfish
July 3, 2008 by Scott
I know it’s kind of late for me to be posting the Daily Dose, but it’s been a hectic two weeks and I’ve been busier that a one legged man in an ass kicking contest. Here is a great chill song from Sublime. There is really nothing I can say to build this song up. there is no need to. Just enjoy it!
"Ain’t got no quarrels with God, ain’t got no time to grow old.
Lord knows I’m weak, won’t somebody get me off of this reef? "
Sublime - Badfish~
