While I never expected With Teeth to win this, I'm surprised it may go now. It had 3 songs go to number 1 on the modern rock charts, and went gold in the US (and double platinum in Canada, haha) in a decade where that's a real accomplishment.

Maybe if it had bland guitar solos forced into more songs it'd make it farther.

Quotes from MLK that make it hard to hear one of the good solos on the album wouldn't hurt it either. 16

I hope CD doesn't win this.

The more I hear this song the less I like it.

There's no real hook to it like most AIC songs have.  And when hearing this next to any of their other singles, it doesn't stack up.  Listen to this song and then Man in the Box.  Man in the Box is light years ahead of this song. 

I'm hoping their official single is better.

One thing about his music that I'm sure alot will disagree with me on,  is it all sounds dated. As great as it was for the moment it hasnt stood the test of time in my opinion. It sounds like 80's pop fluff. Better than alot of the 80's fluff? Sure maybe but honestly his music to me is far from timeless the way The Beatles, Elvis and yes even Gn'R and U2's music sound.

Thanks for making me laugh. 

Throw on a Beatles, Elvis, or early U2 record and it sounds dated.  The U2 albums that don't sound dated are the ones released after 2000. 

Like James said, when people look back on the generation of the 80's, Michael Jackson will be playing in the background.

Muse- Black Holes and Revelations was eliminated in the last round. Actually surprised to see it go that early.

Oh and why does an 8yo boy or girl  often refuse to have other gender friends it's because to little kids the others are "eww gross" wink

When I was 7 and 8 I was throwing erasers and shit at little girls. At 10 I was "playing doctor" with various girls who lived at my apartment complex.

You outgrow that "eww gross" phase awfully damn quick. To insinuate a grown man is in that phase is a giant leap I'm not willing to take.

By the way, anyone who looks at pornography of any kind is not asexual.


Child abuse or no child abuse, to say he was eccentric would be the understatement of the century. You could write volumes of books on this guy and not even include any of that.


Also, he had 50 sold out shows booked for his upcoming tour. That in a nutshell shows the impact he still had on people. No one else on this earth could sell out shows like that.

I agree, I really doubt he was stuck in any 'eww gross' stage.   However, there are personality disorders where the person prefers masturbation over sexual intimacy with any other humans.  For Michael, it could have been he feared intimacy with adults. 

It's a very tragic story.  RIP.
