most bands write and play their own music. its only a small percentage of the tv/radio pop stars that don't. and sadly, those are the ones that youre most likely to see.. | shadowbug26 |
yeah like kelly clarkson...jessica simpson and ashlee simpson...hillary duff probably doesnt write her own shit....its pretty pathetic | SpunkXheroE |
actually, kelly clarkson writes her own stuff now that shes out of her american idol contract. ive got a lot of respect for her. shes done good. | shadowbug26 |
you say you give them credit for not being jerks...but when my friend met them pierre was the biggest asshole to her | XXmusicgurlXX |
My friend met him and she said they were really nice . . . maybe that day your friends met him he was in a really bad mood or something or maybe he was in a really good mood when my friend met him . . . who knows . . . i just want you all to know that i give them credit thats all | DEATH_to_SIMPLE_PLAN |
You know that is super great that even tho you don't really like SP you do give them credit for being song writers and performers. Making music is not easy.
It makes me feel bad for a person who disses a band or artist because they don't relate to or like their music. It is still a fantastic thing that they do write music, perform it, and can impact so many other people through their art.
I can not understand how anyone could not recognize the beauty in that. | GrayBeard |
i'm not saying that making music isn't hard. i couldn't do it. BUT. i do not like simple plan. i respect them for playing their own stuff and stuff i just don't like what they're "art" sounds like. | climacaphobic_katie |
i rekon the word that simple plan write are rwally to inspire teenagers with there emotions and let them know there not alone wich is really good so i give them a lot of credit for that and im glad how the ppl that dont like them have a respectful way of saying it and not "oh simple plan are fucking shit" so i give you credit aswell for respecting
laterzzzzzzzzz | simpleplan_chick |
A lot of ppl think bands like SP write songs that focus on the emotions of teens, and that is true all right, but those "teenage" emotions don't go away when you are no longer a teen.
The emotions you experience in your teens impact you your whole life as I am sure you know. It is totally amazing to me how ppl my age (I am an old shit) still have the same relationship with their parents and peers, emotionally, as they did when they were in their teens.
So actually, SP songs chronicle the emotions of many age groups. | GrayBeard |
yeah ok watever no offnce greybeard but ur 52yr old what would u care about today's music i dunno anyways ever since simple plan came in my life it has changed it alone it has let me known that im not alone to go thro with my problems even know i think and i'v heard alot of story's about teens and simple plan and how sp has effected there life in a good way | simpleplan_chick |
no offense simpleplan_chick, but you are 14...and you know nothing about life or good music or spelling. leave greybeard alone and play nice. | SpunkXheroE |
no offence to you to spunkxheroe but you know nothing about me so you wouldnt know that i do know what music is or watever u said honestly its pathetic like you and i dont need to know u to know that | simpleplan_chick |
you misspelled "offense" again, right after i made fun of you for spelling it that way. also try using some punctuation whilst typing. i do know a lot about you. you can learn a lot about a person from the things they say, the way they type, and the music they listen to.
i have determined you to be another victim of the public school system and a follower by nature. you do whatever MTV tells you to do. | SpunkXheroE |
ummmm...school...wow.... yeah, everyone knows just how horrible education is. | SOADfreak |
if you were addressing the comment i made about public education, public schools really are horrible. the teachers are shitty and the kids are retards. kids these days have a vocabulary similar to that of a small primate. they have terrible grammar and make poor decisions | SpunkXheroE |
that's what sucks about being a celebrity. we all have our shitty days, and the one time a celebrity acts the way a normal person would on a bad day they're considered 'assholes'. | turnuptheradio |
The bottom line is that SP songs have impacted many people in a good way. Very very very few people impact others in a way that helps them.
SP did and they all deserve credit for doing so. That is why I respect and appreciate their art. | GrayBeard |
It's like I'm the one
You love to hate
But not today
So shut up, shut up, shut up
Don't wanna hear it
Get out, get out, get out
Get out of my way
Step up, step up, step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today
Is gonna bring me down
There you go
You never ask why
It's all a big lie
Whatever you do
You think you're special
But I know, and I know
And I know, and we know
That you're not
got those from A-Z lyrics.com
if you are impacted by those lyrics, then you might as well read fucking childrens books. those lyrics are so generic and took ZERO creativity and difficulty to write. | SpunkXheroE |
U LIAR SIMPLE PLAN ARE CRAP ALWAYS HAVE BEEN ALWAYS WILL BE
| greb_princess |
Don't blame it on the schools for all the retards we have, blame it on the retards who choose to be retards by not paying attention. Look at greb_princess, there is no way that a school could possibly have failed that miserably.
Fuck dude, go to Africa and see how great the schools there are. Hah. That would suck. Africa. Hah. | SOADfreak |
i am not a reatrd i am slitely dyslexic thats it. but i can spel this BASTARD. | greb_princess |
Good start, but you still have a lot of work to do. A lot. A real lot.
Have you ever considered summer school, or perhaps going to Sylvan Learning Center? | SOADfreak |
Hey, I see a hell of a lot of ads about that Sylvan Learning Center and how great it is (by their own judgement) but I never met anyone who actually used it.
Does anyone know anyone who has gone to Sylvan? And did it really help them? | GrayBeard |
Maybe they're all too embarrassed to say so.
Except the ones on the comercials. But they get money I'm sure. | SOADfreak |
| stop it | greb_princess |
i dont care what ya all say i love simple plan and allways will!!!!!
there songs r great n davids sssooo hot!!! | lilsissy21693 |
greb_princess u better shut the fuck up simple plan is awesome allways have been and allways will be | lilsissy21693 |
| Hm. Neh, they suck. | SOADfreak |
| are u gonna make me shut the fuk up? | greb_princess |
| wow you are retarded | FattyMcfatfat18 |
hahaha. oh man im pissin myself laughin here u kno why? coz no matter wat anyone says, no matter how much anyone hates them simple plan r not gonna give a fuk! they dont kno u and neva will so how could they care wat u think? with all the fame and all the money comin their way i doubt that the opinion of some close minded fuks are gonna impact them too much.
"People that hate our band, they will never hate me enough to make me stop it" -Pierre Bouvier, Simple Plan
CHECKMATE FUCKERS! | simplefan |
who said that i would want to stop a band that i hate, i just think its funny that fans like you are getting your money taken away by a shitty band,hah ha. | FattyMcfatfat18 |
Majority over minority buddy thats the way the world works. Millions of fans on an international scale, not just me, pay for simple plan's music becoz it quite simply fkn rocks! so plz come back wen u have an argument that might have some kind of foundation to it.
P.S. This may involve thought on ur behalf, sorry for any inconvenience | simplefan |
maybe they have millions of fans because those millions of people are between the ages of 11 and 16 and dont know that there is much better music out there. | SpunkXheroE |
The point is not the age-group of the fans, the point is the copious ammounts of them. You can't deny that SP's fan base is nothing short of enormous, even if they are YOUNG music lovers, it makes no difference. | simplefan |
"Majority over minority buddy thats the way
the world works."
Not on iSound. I have seen two smart people completely whipe out a forum full of idiots. | SOADfreak |
That, and it wouldn't matter anyway, because there is no final point to be made on that matter.
And I could care less what Simple Plan thinks, because it's making fun of idiots around here where the true fun lies. | SOADfreak |
"I have seen two smart people
completely whipe out a forum full of idiots."
Let me guess: TheVampireArmand is one of them?
| snowflakesback |
this is so stupid. there can't be any wiping out if there's no argument in the first place. All i've seen in this forum is when people get backed into a corner they go off their nut and start sayin "yeh well simple plan sucks! simple plan fans should die!" and various other completely unintelligent comments. Seriously if you want to argue a point, first make the point clear and don't just throw random insults, it proves nothing. | simplefan |
and when you say Oh they are so awsome thats completely diffrent from those people in what way? | FattyMcfatfat18 |
I think fatty has a point there. And i think he has a base to it also. It makes me sick seeing all these simple plan fans qouting there lyrics as something inspirational. So what if simple plan has and enourmous fan base. How exactly are you going to prove that. Oh wait its true because you like simple plan. Watching simple plans class act videos and SIMPLE lyrics. They are really not anything special that isnt out already on the market. | thefrothymonkey |
haha I HATE THEM im gonna make a we hate simple plan website lol | greb_princess |
| HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHH...no | thefrothymonkey |
mcdonalds chicken sandwiches are made with chickens with unusually large breasts................. | DEATH_to_SIMPLE_PLAN |
At wat point did I say the words, "oh they are so awesome"? It is completely BELOW ME and my I.Q for that matter to say something that "unworthy" of a debate. Fatty, making a point and having something to base it on involves first of all having "facts". go get them and then try again. | simplefan |
Facts. For what do we need facts. Nobody gives a damn about your I.Q so you can go ahead and lay that to rest. Just the thought of your screename simpleplanfan and the mention of the word I.Q in the same sentence makes me roll over in a fit of laughter. We dont need facts as long as this is not an "argument". If you were so smart you would have obviously seen the comparison to this:
is when people get backed into a corner they
go off their nut and start sayin "yeh
well simple plan sucks! simple plan fans
should die!" and various other
completely unintelligent comments.
When fatty said how is it different when you say they are so awesome he was making an example and a fool out of you at the same time. You read it out of context because you are ready to fly off the handle. | thefrothymonkey |
"It is completely
BELOW ME and my I.Q for that matter to say
something that "unworthy" of a
debate."
a debate there was no debate before you started saying things like this. facts, facts to prove what that something said in different context is the same? why | FattyMcfatfat18 |
hey sorry guys if i was gettin on your nerves which i probly was. I know that sometimes i go overboard and get angry for no good reason at all. i'll try to not be such a dickhead in the future k?
P.S. im not bein sarcastic incase anyone thinks that. | simplefan |
| k | thefrothymonkey |
| thanx dude | simplefan |
we still hate you, i cant simply just forget that you are an idiot. i think we should get a divorce | SpunkXheroE |
| HA HA THAT WAS THE FUNNIEST THING EVA | FattyMcfatfat18 |
| lmao | thefrothymonkey |
no argument hey? hmmm looks alot like your tryin to start one. | simplefan |
see this is wat i hate about fucks like you. you demand that i stop bein a dickhead, atleast i then had the guts to recognize wat i was doin and apologize for it, and your still not satisfied. well fuck yas all then i'll be a dickhead all i want n i simply dont care how much you insult me you cant make me stop. | simplefan |
hey dont get ur underwear in a bundle that was spunk. I laughed because it was funny. simple as that. Y are you trying to please everybody so badly anyway. | thefrothymonkey |
Simplefan - don't ever apologize for saying you like a band anyway you say it. These forums are here to voice your opinions on bands & music you like, so don't let others try to make you feel guilty for saying you like SP.
The real sad part about these forums is that there are some ppl who only use them to try to put down other ppl. How sad.
So much good music out there and yet all they can do is piss on everyone else's opinions and tastes.
| GrayBeard |
first of all, dont laugh at the expense of a man who has the BALLS to apologise in the first place.
Second of all, graybeard; no other way to say it ur dead set right dude, i think ur the only one in this forum makin any kind of sense.
now thirdly, which coincidently is what i've been tryin to say all along. Some ppl in this forum, and im not sayin its all of u, some ppl feel the need to, instead of just expressing their opinion normally, pull the piss out of SP. the one rule that everyone should live by is this: "don't insult anyone who is better than you". If you can write and perform better than simple plan can, come back to this forum and THEN insult them, but until such a day, a simple "im not too fussed on them" will do. | simplefan |
um...i can write and perform better than simple plan. literally, i play all four instruments. drums, guitar, bass, vocals. im pretty sure an 8 year old could play drums better than the drummer, i fucking know i play guitar better than the guitarist, the bass player might as well not even play his bass, and i know damn well i can sing better than pierre.
so can i criticize simple plan now? because ive met all the requirements | SpunkXheroE |
| hmmm i think you have. | thefrothymonkey |
you really expect me to take ur fkn word for that? sing better than pierre? oh plz id love to hear it you'd probly sound like a dyin cat gettin a sharp instrument shoved up its ass, give up. if you're so great why dont you have as many hits as they do? probly coz you dont even have a band coz noone wants to be in one with you. | simplefan |
dude, do you think before you type? shall i send you pictures of all my instruments? shall i send you mp3s of my playing them? because i dont have any mp3s. im not in a band, i play my instruments as a personal hobby. i sang in choir in high school and i sing karaoke. im afraid you are just going to have to take my word for it. making uneducated assumptions just shows that you are a retard | SpunkXheroE |
-burn- "I would like to see you sing as good as pierre" What? So your automatically assuming none of us can do things. How closed minded can you get. Pierre sounds like a a whiny baby whos been strangled with a belt and has had a prarie dog shoved down his throat. | thefrothymonkey |
the fact is that they're out there makin millions and you fucks are on a loser internet forum crtisizing them for doing it. if you got the talent get out there and use it and until your on a higher level than them dont critisize them. | simplefan |
its called luck the band has no talent and until you get to a higher level then us dont come back and critisize us. | FattyMcfatfat18 |
you dont have to be on the same level as someone in order to criticize them. besides they arent any better than you or me. well, maybe you, because you suck...well....they suck too, so i guess you are on the same level as them, the rest of us are above | SpunkXheroE |
Why do you keep referring to being on a higher level before criticizing them. We already by not put that crap they dish out on the market. We are doing the world a favor. unlike them. Everything is money too. You dont have to be a misguided band to make money. That is not the only profression that you can do. I am damn sure im going to sit here on the forum and criticize them. Oh fucking well | thefrothymonkey |
Man, some of you people take shit so seriously. Christ, look at simplefan, he's all clusterfucked. Then I hear all this bullshit "Duhhrr, don't come to a forum just to piss people off, durrrrrrr."
Sorry, but I'm not going to speak along the lines of all this morality bullshit you people bitch about all day. Poons. | SOADfreak |
im 5'8" duh duh duh duh duh duuuuuhhhhh | FattyMcfatfat18 |
i like em n all but in there songs they act like their the only ones who are feelin like this u no linke welcome to my life 'have you ever been lied straight to your face' damn boys iluv ya but quit wit tha pity party im in a treatment center i did my shit but im not victimizing myself even more | urXaXdudeXhehe |
| that was hard to understand | FattyMcfatfat18 |
"they act
like their the only ones who are feelin like this"
Well, that's because they want tweens to feel as if they relate to them. So they whine about how awful their lives are and how no one understands them.*
Of course, this happens to attract a bunch of whining preteens who mistake Simple Plan as for something worth listening to; So there you have it-The Simple Plan Fanbase.
"damn boys iluv ya but quit wit tha pity party"
Hahah, that's never going to happen. That's their technique:
The more they whine=The more fans they get=The more money they make.
P.S. Please learn to properly type, or is that too much to ask for from a Simple Plan fan? Just kidding about that part, but really; Learn to type.
Go ahead and correct me if I'm wrong. | snowflakesback |
| true ^ | thefrothymonkey |
why shouldnt they act like they're the only ones that feel like this? if you were makin millions doin it you would to and dont lie i know you would. | simplefan |
I'd like to think that I still have a small trickle of dignity left somewhere that would prevent me from doing that. Ugh, can you imagine all of those little girls obessing over you, telling you how you've changed their lives? GOD. | SOADfreak |
They're a bunch of whiny morons.
You don't see them starving in Africa, do you? What is it that they write about in their life that is causing them so much dread? What, did their mommy forget to wipe their ass one day?
"if you were
makin millions doin it you would to"
1. I'm not in a band.
2. Nor do I want to be in one.
3. But if I was to start a band, I'll make sure the music I make would atleast be good quality, and not a fucking scam.
| snowflakesback |
| ^ true once again | thefrothymonkey |
if you were makin millions doin ANYTHING you wouldnt stop doin it, same principle. | simplefan |
For all of you who play instruments or sing that is super. And if you write music that is even greater.
But, and this is a BIG but, PERFORMING is a whole different thing, and is the ultimate expression of music. There is something magic about bringing music to life in a performance.
So while I can appreciate someone saying they play an instrument better than someone in SP, or sing better than them, or even write songs better than them, it is not the same as performing.
Bottom line to me is this: The BEST guitar player, singer, or writer who doesn't perform is not as much into music as the WORSE guitar player, singer, or writer who DOES perform.
| GrayBeard |
if you were makin millions doin ANYTHING you
wouldnt stop doin it, same principle.

Oh I see. Does that mean that you yourself admit that all Simple Plan care about is how to get money off of their young fans, and you voluntarily hand it to them? Smart. | snowflakesback |
Graybeard's a legend.
"Oh I see. Does that mean that you yourself

Do not put words in my mouth, i never once said and/or implied that. I'm just saying that if you were at that level and your music wasn't exactly what EVERYONE wanted, you wouldn't stop and especially if you were makin that kinda money. | simplefan |
"But, and this is a BIG but, PERFORMING is a

expression of music. There is something
magic about bringing music to life in a
performance."
I agree. That's why it's annoying when people get overboard on the whole 'sell-out' deal. There is a point in every serious band when music becomes more than just expression or originality, it becomes business, too. What kids need to realize is that there *is* a happy medium for that. You don't have to simply be the crazy original band that gets nowhere, but you don't have to be a bunch of teeny bopper sell-outs. If you have fun, and make money while doin it, why wouldn't you? | SOADfreak |
"Do not put words in my mouth,,"
----
I didn't. You misinterpreted my post.
"I'm just saying
that if you were at that level and your music
wasn't exactly what EVERYONE wanted, you
wouldn't stop"

Gee, did I not just reply to something similar of this nature a few posts back?
"and especially if you were
makin that kinda money."
-----
Ohkay, I'll put it this way: I'd rather not waste my time rewriting all of my posts for your sake. Just look back to what I've said earlier. Is it really that difficult?
| snowflakesback |
complete ignorance, you missed my point in te first place. yes you replied to the post but you went off the point. | simplefan |
fuckers fuckers fuckers i got nothin to do anymore, write bak!!! | simplefan |
you missed my point in te
first place. yes you replied to the post but
you went off the point.
-------
OKAY!
Back to the point:
They'll keep playing their music even if the majority doesn't like it because they get money off of it. | snowflakesback |
yeh thats true, thats umm yeh exactly wat i was saying | simplefan |
SOADfreak makes a good point and has just helped understand something about bands that has bothered me for a long time.
I have always wondered why a band stays together during the hard years when they are trying to get discovered, then they get successful and in just a few short years, they breakup, just when they are in the possition to really get their music and message out there.
But like SOADfreak points out, there comes a time when the business end of the music rears it's head, and that changes a lot of stuff. So I guess some bands just never learn to how to do the necessary "business" stuff pushed on them due to their success and continue with their "art". So they quit or fall apart.
SOADfreak,thanks for helping this old brain understand a little more about this music world. | GrayBeard |
:)No problem.
How ya been anyway? | SOADfreak |
I've been OK, but the last couple of months I have been been going thru some stuff with moving and stuff and haven't had as much time to do any music stuff like I like, so I haven't really been on iSound much.
Thanks for asking dude. | GrayBeard |
Moving huh? Is it like a big move to another state? Moving is gay, I know, I've done it like seven times in my life, but luckily none of them have even gone out of the same half of the state. | SOADfreak |
cant beleive this thread is still going

ATTENTION BLINK 182 FANS!!!!
I AM JOSH TALBOT. I come from a country town in Australia. I am just a small percentage of the blink fans in the world but I’m fed up with waiting, something needs to be done! This is my plan- ROCK FOR BLINK 2012! If you hav seen this post on either a forum, bebo or the like, keep it moving! As Blink fans, we need to make a commitment. We ALL meet in Blink 182’s origin of San Diego, California in 2012 and we ALL play/sing/dance/whatever in a massive concert called “ROCK FOR BLINK”. Featuring ONLY blink 182 songs and a massive screen with heaps of videos from when Mark and Tom were friends!! Posting shit on the internet like “I wish they would make up” isn’t gonna work guys! We need to make a stand! If you are a dedicated Blink fan you WILL be in San Diego, California in 2012 wearing a Blink 182 or Atticus T-Shirt!! The reason for the T-Shirt is so that all of us other fans know that you are there for the concert and so we can locate each other easier. Now, this isn’t going to work without cash. So if you are going to be there, EVERYONE has to pitch in 50 bucks. If you would like to contact me about this plan, my MSN address is scolded_cat@hotmail.com. My home Email address is jayenem@westnet.com.au. And my bebo is http://punk-rocks-89.bebo.com. Please if you email that home address put the subject as “ROCK FOR BLINK”. Remember the good times guys? Lets MAKE these stubborn ass boys remember em too. | simplefan |
Dude ya know this is Simple Plan not Blink 182??? ne ways could ya sum that up. Im to lazy to read the whole topic | Retard-4-Life |
Blink 182 will NEVER get back together dude. Look at Angels and Airwaves. Do you think he'll ever go back to a Blink sound. They broke up because they had different views on where their music should go and that's why their last album was horrible. I'm sorry their old stuff is alright but they're long gone.
And as for the original topic. I agree with you man. They aren't talented writers at all but they do deserve props for being working musicians. I'm just saddened to hear people say that its the deepest thing they have ever heard. | weneedskapunk |
And to the argument going on a few posts up. I'm surprised that no one has made the argument that music should not be about making money, but about expression of self. And honestly, I think either:
1) These guys exploit the feelings of young teens to make money. They try to make these kid's "problems" seem much worse then they actually are. I have a young cousin probably around the age of you simple plan fans. I show him music such as Operation Ivy and Defiance, Ohio. Two very different bands with similar messages. And I feel he now knows what really matters in this world, and that there are worse things then your parents not understanding you.
2) These guys really believe that these are the biggest problems anyone can have in their life. If so then I envy these guys. They have lived very sheltered easy lives. | weneedskapunk |
I hope all you non-SP likers don't think that all they're fans are retarded and "omfg he's soo hott!!1!!11!!1!" and unintelligent like lots of the people on Isound act. Or that all of them think they're hardcore or anything.
I can assure that not all of the fans are! I'd like to think so, at least, seeing as I like them and I'm not retarded and dumb.
I say this because sometimes I think the fans can say a fair deal about a band. I find it kind of hard to explain, but hopefully you get the gist?
Also I respect people who don't like a band but don't act all stupid and immature towards them/their fans, and give them props and such. | XratedRomance |
so much has happened since i was here last :)
