Full Version: Should have written the name down
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
So I was watching late night music tv, and a pretty good song came on (imho) and I totally failed to write the name of the band or the title down.

Thanks to my addled by too much aluminium in the water brain I have no clue at all who they were, so I am after the help of the more cereberally gifted out there.

The video was at a wedding, with all of the brides side in make-up with eyes painted on their eyelids. No-one on the grooms side until the singer (dressed as a ringmaster) arrived with a group of sideshow stars, stilt walkers and bearded ladies (not found on match.com, been reading other thread ;-))
They were basically trying to tell the groom that his girl is a bit of a slut & he shouldn't marry her, which was handy as she left & got off with a member of the congregation.

I dimly remember the chorus having the line similar to 'Doesn't anyone close the door?' or something similar.

There was even a firebreather in the vid, as my 3 year old was very impressed that that used to be one of my circus skills.

So this isn't exactly to mission impossible standards, but at least you know your screen won't blow up as it self distructs.

Cheers for any help people can offer, and please don't tell me my musical preferences suck, as my wife does already all the time...

I think you are talking about Panic! At The Disco.

I'm pretty sure the song is called something like "I write Sins, Not Tragedies" or something like that.

Hope that helps.
it sounds like Panic! as lampshade said.
Here are the lyrics, if that helps

Chancellor, don't be so hard on everyone just because they have different opinions. Some people like bands for their ability, while some like them for their image.
And some like them for the purley shallow reason that the singer was pretty hot... That is the only reson I have to explain my purchase of a Republica album...

Yes, I was that superficial.

And Chancellor, no problems :-)
And in the even that you think the comment 'or lack in some cases' was directed at you, then please don't. If you see the 'Len' comment at the end you will see it is most certainly directed at me!

It's a cool video and the song's okay in the scheme of what's getting airplay.

To be honest, about twelve seconds into the video I turned to Mrs. 'tude and commented that they wannabe The Killers. Mrs. 'tude agreed.

We're kinda partial to and prefer Taking Back Sunday. Cool tune, very cool vid.

I was thinking the same thing and found out that it is the track 'Martell' by The Cribs. It's definately catchy! Enjoy!

Damn Telus, their service sucks but the music they pick for their commericals is usally spot on!! (Maybe i just like their marketing firm more).

All for now,
Aaron
Thank you sooooooooo much!
