Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
You will never understand it cuz it happens too fast
And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass
It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
It's so groovy, it's outta sight
You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
But it makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet
You want it all but you can't have it
It's cryin', bleedin', lying on the floor
So you lay down on it and you do it some more
You've got to share it, so you dare it
Then you bare it and you tear it
You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it
It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
It's sad it happened and it's a shame
You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?...
Yes
Yeah so this is a bop
i dont know who that is
Just about every musician I've known has gone through a Mike Patton worshipping phase, or a Maynard worshipping phase
i was also in high school
I fucking wish I knew about this music in high school. I was still listening to the fucking radio im a late late bloomer
I thought Maynard was deep when I was 13.
lmao Patton means "bigfooted" in Spanish
what a stinky bigfoot man
You know what they say about big feet
I know a lot of people who at one point said they were obsessed w/ mike patton, but none of them really care about him anymore.
Even in retrospect he's an interesting guy, old live videos of mr bungle still stand up. I really respect how in that interview he's talking about how the best music is made by people who are just so far gone, like right said fred
yeah kind of.
btw, i remember buying the 'adult themes for voice' cd back in the late 90s and faith no more were giving autographs, then i give the cd to mike to get it signed by him and he goes...
>why did you buy this stupid shit? really, why? is there something wrong with your head *laughs* pshhh you are an idiot
dude didn't sign the cd and people were booing me and laughing at me. probably the worst day ever. i really didn't know mike was a huge cunt irl.
the bigger the stinkier hehe
Sorry man that sucks he should have at least signed it and it wouldve been cool. I like his cynicism usually but yeah dick move
>'adult themes for voice'
I had that too. What a pile of shit that was.
Haven't gone the Maynard worshipping phase, just the God Patton.
>is this a phase everyone goes through?
Unironically yes, I through it at 16 or 17. I still love his work, just don't think he's the bestest singer ever.
He went to my high school
i went through it.
such a badass
Usually, if i'm "obsessed" with a musician it's not really a phase...no, although there are phases in life, it usually got to stay with you forever i guess, i'd say you just need to realize they are not special at all tho, i mean, still a person.
There are no special beings in my library...
wow, what a jerk!
overrated imho.
lmao you fucking idiot
big socks
Everybody goes through a Mr. Bungle phase. Faith No More are eternal though.
dumb leftist cringelord
large toes
here's the thing about mikey
I would have answered no, but I remembered I too had a Mike Patton phase. So I guess it is.
The man has some serious pipes. He has a six octave range and excelled in any octave. He writes brilliant songs. And his stage presence is only matched by Adolf Hitler. Seriously, Watch Mr. bungle play Pink Cigarette live at Bizarre Festival 2000 and then watch a video of the Nuremberg rallies. We better thank our lucky stars Mike didn't go into politics or he would have taken over the world.
But Mr. Bungle as a whole had a brilliant dynamic. It wasn't just the Mike Patton backup band. They all made huge creative contributions to what made bungle what it is.Yes Mike wrote Girls of Porn, Sweet Charity and Air conditioned Nightmare. But Trevor Dunn wrote Retrovertigo,the holy filament and phlegmatics. Trey Spruance wrote Desert Search for techno allah, None of them know they were robots and golem 2 the bionic vapour boy.
Other bands like Nirvana for instance were not like that. Nirvana was basically the Kurt Cobain backup band. Me bungle was the perfect storm of legendary talent and Mike Patton was the face of it all. The delicious cherry on top of an already delicious sundae.
He was the ambassador that allowed the amazing talent of the combo that was Mr. Bungle Robb's brought to our lives.he was the prism that focused the laser beams from the brains of Trevor, Trey, Heifetz and McKinnon and amplified them until they were powerful enough to blow out our minds through our ear holes.
Yes he is the greatest frontman who has ever lived, hands down.
Ok this is epic
Eric Burdon > Mike Patton
Happy birthday to him then.
The Real Thing, Angel Dust, Tomahawk's first two records and Mr. Bungle's discog are great. The rest of his stuff I can take or leave.
who the fuck is this man?
give me a quick rundown fanboys
Huge vocal style range, anti-consumerist, questionable lyrical themes
