The song is by Fuel, but it's not the one listed above. The song is called "Bad Day".
-
They are working on a new album now. They've never gone away, just tend to fly below most everybody's radar. They put out a live album earlier this year.
-
I would say....
"Secret" by Maroon5
"A Murder of One" by Counting Crows

I'm with you Muzik...her performance in Monster was fantastic. An Oscar-worthy performance if I've ever seen one. I'd never been much of a fan of hers, but I became one after seeing that movie.

"Semi-Charmed Life" by Third Eye Blind
"Running to Stand Still" by U2

It appeared on his album Faith, but I believe the correct title is "One More Try". I would say he wrote it because he often did, at least back in those days.
To me, the song has always been addressed to a new lover, who he refers to as "teacher". I guess he calls them teacher because he feels he has a lot to learn about love. It seems that he is reluctant to enter into this new love because of past experiences. It seems that he has been burned and is very bitter to the aspect of another relationship. Lyrics are as follows:
I've had enough of danger
And people on the streets
I'm looking out for angels
Just trying to find some peace
Now I think it's time
That you let me know
So if you love me
Say you love me
But if you don't just let me go...
'Cos teacher
There are things that I don't want to learn
And the last one I had
Made me cry
So I don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
When you were just a stranger
And I was at your feet
I didn't feel the danger
Now I feel the heat
That look in your eyes
Telling me no
So you think that you love me
Know that you need me
I wrote the song, I know it's wrong
Just let me go...
And teacher
There are things
That I don't want to learn
Oh the last one I had
Made me cry
So I don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
So when you say that you need me
That you'll never leave me
I know you're wrong, you're not that strong
Let me go
And teacher
There are things
That I still have to learn
But the one thing I have is my pride
Oh so I don't want to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because there ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Who just isn't willing to try
I'm so cold
Inside
Maybe just one more try...
I don't know, maybe you guys can come up with another explanation based on these lyrics. By the way, this qualifies as one of those songs where the title is in the last line.

Mike, I just answered this question in your post about the worst sequels.
My choices are "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Toy Story 2".
-
To me, no sequel ever lives up to the original. With the exception of "The Empire Strikes Back". No wait, "Toy Story 2" is better in my opinion.
Back to the question at hand. I would have to say the second Jurassic Park movie, "The Lost World". Fabulous book, horrible movie.
-
Too many to mention. Album tracks are usually the ones I gravitate to. A few that come to mind are....
"Slaves and Bulldozers" - Soundgarden
"Until the End of the World" - U2
"Raining in Baltimore" - Counting Crows
"Driven to Tears" - The Police
"Sea of Sorrow" - Alice in Chains
"If You Leave" - Train

Mindcrime....I've never known INXS to use a flute. Hang on, I'm singing the song in my head now....
It's been so long since I've heard that song, I'm not sure. I would have to say probably not, as they usually just used the sax. I have seen Kirk play a soprano sax so that may have been what he used.
-
Bono
When the Police were still around, I wanted to be Sting. Not anymore....too AC for my taste now.
-
They lost me after Dookie.
-
The Beatles
Pink Floyd
Rush
-
Several Hall & Oates songs have sax in them. "Maneater", "Say It Isn't So", etc.
INXS has some too. "What You Need", "New Sensation", etc.
Both of those groups sport a resident sax player.

Dave, I agree that the opening scene in "Ghost Ship" was pretty cool. I even found myself watching the DVD extra on how the scene was shot. I'm inexplicably fond of cheesy horror movies.
-
Sorry I was thinking of this one hit wonder from the 90's called The Verve Pipe.
I always got those two bands confused.
-
Are they still around?
I remember one song by them that was really good. I think it was called "The Freshman".
-
U2
Our Lady Peace
Counting Crows
The Police
Alice in Chains

From what I can remember, she wasn't with Bob anymore. I do remember that some sh*t was going on between Bob and her and it somehow involved her and Michael's daughter. I think that's right.
I had also heard a rumor that he didn't really hang himself, but died due to some auto-erotic asphyxiation. Who knows?

Audioslave blows me away. Velvet Revolver just blows.

It was on his self-titled album released in 1982.

The music for Sting's "Russians" is based on a piece by Sergei Prokofiev.
