As if.

God appeared to me in a dream and told me to abuse those skinny little redneck motherf**kers at every opportunity (God looks a lot like Shaft by the way).

Seriously, how can you not look at these guys and just laugh. If they offered to introduce you to their mother and their sister you would definitely only be expecting to meet one woman...

We are different. There's no doubt about that.

[QUOTE=HarryPeters]I like musicians for their music not their looks.


Ironic that you should make that comment about a band with probably the most carefully manufactured image of any contemporary act. Just because they are a "southern rock" boy band doesn't mean they aren't a boy band.

And just to be clear, I hate both their music and their image.

Where's his "United Till I Die" scarf? Must have fallen off while he was nobbing his sister/mum.

Liked their first two albums, think their last ones are sh*te.

Sex on fire is utter tripe, just radio fodder or whatever you call it.

It's probably a sad attempt at 'maturing', like linkin park failed at also...

KOLS are nothing special. You can't compare them to Linkin Park as they are completely different styles of football... It is like comparing Smeltz to moss in footballing terms.

Lay where you're laying
Don't make a sound
I know they're watching
They're watching

All the commotion
the kiddie like play
Has people talking
Talking

You
Your sex is on fire

The dark of the alley
The break of the day
The head while I'm driving
I'm driving

Soft lips are open
Knuckles are pale
Feels like you're dying
You're dying

You
Your sex is on fire
Consumed
With what's to transpire

Hot as a fever
Rattling bones
I can just taste it
Taste it

If it's not forever
If it's just tonight
Oh it's still the greatest
The greatest
The greatest

You
Your sex is on fire
You
Your sex is on fire
Consumed
With what's to transpire
And You
Your sex is on fire

They are both completely sh*te though. Kings of Leon and Linkin Park that is, not Smeltz and Moss.

If the point of printing these lyrics was to prove just how awful Kings of Leon are then you've succeeded.

I know they are different mr gangsta, I was merely comparing them in that they both have deserted their original styles of music, and failed with their transformations.

Are you sayin' my home boys Milli Vanilli look like dorks?

If you gonna step up to a brother like that you better be prepared to bring it boyee. You feel me?

That said you obviously have 'nuff respect for MV and their great contribution to the fine art of lip-syncing so fair enough.

Kings of Leon have contributed f**k all to anything except the fine art of pretending to be Lynyrd Skynyrd. If you don't know what that means kids just look up Lynyrd Skynyrd on Amazon and listen to Free Bird - that's where your precious Kings of Leon are going to end up suckers!

Agree with you there Strummerboy - although possibly not as harsh on the last two albums.

Their music has always been honest. It would be ridiculous for them to try to and be four young 'innocent' Alabama bumpkins now that they have become genuine rockstars who have conquered the world.
