Collective Soul - Counting The Days Lyrics
Hey baby are you listening
I've batten all the hatches down
I've taken all of your prescriptions but no remedy I've found
[Chorus:]
Until some freedom can scream my name
Counting the Days (yeah)
Until the gods break these chains.
hey baby are you watching
I'm saddling for your side show
I never want to become precious
This life is so touch and go
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
Dig it, get it, dig it what your looking for?
Dig it, get it, dig it what your searching for?
Dig it, get it, dig it yeah, dig
Yeah, dig
[Chorus]

This is one of the songs from my preteen years and teenagers and I just thought about it randomly so I decided to look it up I remember how awesome the song was brings me back good times.
I always come back to this song for a good ol’ quick line of ear coke 😜
Wwe smackdown new theme 2020
underrated group
Why was "Youth" the album so underrated?
Me and my gf enjoy getting twerking naked to this song when we play it on here
Dude...
Trailer mortal kombat Armageddon
The first time i heard this it for a MK video trailer for a game but i never knew who sang the song so when i bought Injustice 2 i kept thinking about the song each time i play Sub Zero this song is awesome
SOUNDS LIKE MATELLICA'S KING NOTHING!
*Metallica
this band is nice. the guitar guy ROCKS!
Now is "Architects" so better than this
Best song in Load Album, hail Metallica lml

Thank you..
WHERE'S YOUR CROWN, KING NOTHIIIIINNNGGG??

Oh hijo de perra, creí que era el único.
Who's here because of Dolph?
l saw his tweet.
Dolph brought me here! Snap - vegagotem
King nothing
They also pretty much lifted the bassline from "freaks of the industry" on "no more no less".
larga vida al rock
YEAH !!!
top essa música
ae br comanda
Awesome riff - great band, very underrated
Dave Abbott kinda reminds me of Headbangers Ball
They ripped the riff off from Metallica
hahahahaha. Get dafukowtahere. You mean Metallic ripped the riff off them. No fucking way is Metallica capable of creating a decent riff anymore. They haven't had shit since the Justice album.
rofyle Metallica used this riff in King nothing. That song is from 1996. The song from collective soul is from 2004. So your comment is a bit stupid.
rofyle are you that fucking stupid
THIS SONG REALLY ROCKS :) IT SOUNDS LIKE METALLICA "KING NOTHING"
COLLECTIVE SOUL ARE A GOOD CHRISTIAN METAL BAND
That's why that riff sounded so familiar
Its essentially the same riff.......vanilla ice anyone?
@1IMPALASS but the album came out in 2004?
Collective soul is my favorite band ever!
crank it at the solo
fucking love CS, have all there albums
there are 8...
@jayPB08 I think he meant "all their albums"
Yeah brother love all their solos they're so like crunchy or something
+goochsurfer not so crunchy here but in other songs like shine
Along with the Foo Fighters, Pearl Jam, VR, Tool/Perfect Circle (same singer so might as well be same band), Silvertide and maybe even RHCP one of very few lone bright spots from the douchebag rock era (aka the era of Nickelback, Creed, Limp Bizkit, Korn, Linkin Park, Staind, Puddle of Mudd, Chevelle, Three Days Grace, Papa Roach, Breaking Benjamin, Disturbed, Hoobastank, Seether, Trapt, Theory of a Deadman, Saving Abel, Earshot (aka fake Tool/Perfect Circle), Lit, Eve 6, Third Eye Blind, Lifehouse, Vertical Horizon, Daughtry, Coheed & Cambria, and a whole lotta sucky wimpy soft rock (a la John Mayer, Coldplay, Train, Five For Fighting, Jack Johnson, Matt Kearney, Gavin Degraw, Keane, Snow Patrol, the Calling, Ninedays, etc) and cheezoid pop-punk/emo (Blink/Boxcar Racer, Avril Lavigne, Paramore, Good Charlotte, Simple Plan, Ataris, BFS, AAR, FOB, NFG, Sum 41, MCR, BFMV, 30 Sec To Mars, Unwritten Law et al) plus you might as well toss in all the other talentless rap-rock acts from that era with those douchebags. CS, FF, PJ, VR, Tool and all the talented acts were very lonely company (in terms of good rock acts) in a very large pond of rubbish.
bucky468
Thumbs down for the run-on sentences and no break down.
Anyway, that period had a nice mix of anything rock or rockish.
Seriously, look what we have now?
Harden Thicke - Come on, all those bands I listed stunk. I'll take ANY 80's rock 'n' roll over the rock of the past 2 decades - even lame ass glam hair bands - and I hate hair metal unless it's Tesla, GN'R, Whitesnake, Ratt, Dokken, Great White, QR, early TS, W.A.S.P., Yngwie Malmsteen, Fastway, Autograph, MSG, Bonham, Blue Murder, Vandenberg, Giant, Alias, Bad English, Hardline, Vixen, Bulletboys, Junkyard, Bang Tango, Tangier, Dangerous Toys, Giuffria/House of Lords, King's X, Babylon AD, Killer Dwarfs, Atomic Playboys, and a few others - over the "douchebag rock" of Y2K. That's how much I hate that modern alt/indie garbage. However, AOR, prog-rock and southern rock are my go-to genres of rock n' roll music.
Collective Soul and Blue Oyster Cult together would be one great show.
@Ed Foley What made you say that about CS and BOC?
Everyone died
Mortal Kombat Armageddon music video xD
I think he's trying to make a point, I'm not 100% certain...
COLLECTIVE SOUL AND METALLICA ARE BOTH ON WARNER MUSIC ;) IM SURE THERES A REAL CONNECTION FROM METAL TO ALT-ROCK
:D exelent song!!
I like the solo
Oh yeah, I agree. You have any idea how many times Metallica stole? Wasn't just the video I showed. They've taken many guitar riffs from Deep Purple, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, the likes. And Led Zeppelin has taken so many songs it's unbelievable. Everything is sourced in something.
It is hard to find a original guitar part in the rock music world. Collective Soul used the tempo and made a really kick ass song out of it.
haha this is completely in different time collective soul loves metallica n rush where do u think king nothing came from....ps every songs has a note isthat infringement lol u people cant read music
They also sped up the tempo a little bit and added new lyrics. But, yeah, it's practically a cover. It's insane how much people can steal and get away with. You ought to check out this video: /watch?v=letLBUrt7yA (Disclaimer: I am a huge Metallica fan)
They literally just changed the notes! Unbelievable.
I smell King Nothing.
ROCKN'!!!
im a diggin you babe what?ya gooooiiing to do about it.
close but not quite at all, its not even in the same time and same melody with different and better sounds. however CS loves metallica, also rush and there wouldnt be metallica without rush
was just about to post the same comment
This riff sounds identical to King Nothing by Metallica.
I agree with the comment at the top of this page about the only that sucks about the song is that it's too damn short.
@Knightslayer35 Allright im going to listen to this every first day
@ASGninja replay it then it's twice as long
This song ROCKS!!!
Great song!!!
When applying to colleges in high school, I ended up not getting accepted to the only school I wanted to go to. Freshman year, at a local university that I couldn't stand, this was my theme song while I waited for my transfer application to be evaluated. I ended up graduating from where I wanted. Thank you, Collective Soul.
i broke the replay button
me gusta la cancion
like #200 :P love this song
nfs most wanted :D
One person cant break his chains
@MustangAce36Kills They use to keep taking it down,,, people got tired of looking for it
@MaximumPayne12 i belive armargeddon
should have had a video. the song rocks.
@Asiangrades which mortal kombat has this song??? o.o
@ericdxx Yep.
Only 41,111 view?! That's ridiculous! This song deserves way more!
YEAAAAHHH
collective soul deserves better
i dont get it does this song have a shitload of views
@youboob6022
mmm, go fuck yourself. Totally disagree.
MORTAL KOMBAT :D
I saw this because of mortal KOMBAT!!!!!
@ericdxx Metallica are an overrated pile of crap.
@schumisebas hillbilly
1 dislike??....ahahahaha!!....
yeah, dig!
1 person forgot to count the days..:(
If it were not for the basicly pathetic waiting for something to free yourself from chains which ain't gonna happen, this would be right up there. Sounds cool.
[switching vocals to instrument mode-replay]
cho-ness!
@xboxerman21 ziggler used it in ovw...
Suprised They Haven't Used This As A WWE Theme Yet..
that song is catchy
i used to listen to it in 2002
and pops in my mind in 2010
strange
still love it
Only one thing sucks about this song. It's too damn short.
@schumisebas jaja me too.!!! :P I sing every time they pass it xd
de puta madre!!!
one of the greatest of all time im all ears on this one
@lovetaride FU loser.
@schumisebas haha yeah me too. that's awesome song
Clearly a ripoff of Metallica's King Nothing riff.
I can't believe that this CS is the same band form the 90's. It seems it's all just downhill since their 2nd album.
there is another version of collective soul u think so
that they played with acoustic?
@kybusch18 me three!
Great song! I knew it by Nascar!!! jajajaa
