    truc de malade !!! enfin ! quelqu'un qui nous comprend ! hihihi ! merciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii !

  10. U.... R....

    I’ve never heard an angrier song in my whole life, no swans, no metal, no hardcore punk. This takes the cake and it is awesome

  11. j.... ....

    He sounds like a desperate and frustrated man. The music and the lyrics fit perfectly together.

  12. b.... ....

    Me when I apply to full time jobs and don't get any interviews

  13. T.... ....

    Can someone post the lyrics?

    T.... ....

    WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEEEEEE?!!!!!!
    WHY DONT YOU LIKE MEEEEEEEEEE?

  14. e.... ....

    This is the MItt Romney theme song.

    e.... ....

    Jeb Bush too

  15. A.... A....

    lou vocal on this track was intense mannnnn

  16. B.... O....

    When Lou was done singing this, he actually started coughing up blood, according to Michael Azzerad's "Our Band Could Be Your Life"

  17. p.... f....

    yyyyyyyyyyyyyy

  18. S.... T....

    This song broke my smartphone. Had it plugged into my Alesis so the neighbors could get a taste. Vibrated right off the top and shattered the screen ..thanks Lou. #worthit

    S.... T....

    Perfect anecdote for this story

  19. S.... A....

    Does anyone know the story behind this song? I've heard its more about record labels than girls.

    S.... A....

    The book "our band could be your life" has a Dinosaur Jr chapter, I think they talk about it.

    If I remember correctly there is no grand story behind it, just J was this confident weirdo and Lou the emotional, shy dork. I guess during the phase when they started hating each other J wrote this song for Lou to sing as a joke but he took the trolling seriously.

  20. K.... D....

    This is what I imagine the inside of a teenager's head sounds like.

    K.... D....

    Being a teen when I first heard this album, I can say you're spot on.

    K.... D....

    ...just before they shoot up the school cafeteria...

    K.... D....

    not only teenagers !

    K.... D....

    I'm 50 and that's what's inside my head.

    I should probably seek counseling though.

    K.... D....

    can confirm this is what is inside my head.

  21. J.... P....

    Yeah, J wrote this song, not Lou. But I'm sure performing this was very cathartic for Lou.

    J.... P....

    I heard he gone to it with such intensity he coughed up blood when the recording was over.

    J.... P....

    Yeah. That's what I had read in their segment of "Our Band Could Be Your Life". If I remember correctly J wrote the song for Lou, because he didn't like Lou.

  22. F.... S....

    This is some heavy shit man.

    F.... S....

    +Foolish Swami Fuckin A man.
    I used to listen to this all the time.
    J mascis is god

  23. k.... ....

    lol..On glue near Edinburgh, wrong part of town with the wrong people. We were looking for somebody.. Course i was younger then.

  24. A.... B....

    I've been through plenty of heavy music phases in my life, and this song is one of few that has the power to actually scare me.

    A.... B....

    @Adhesive Boi Well put. I do not "like" this genre so much. But when it's done well - like this - it expresses the sorrow of life quite effectively. "KIds" has a track - "Daddy Never Understood" that emotes this, too. Definitely has that Dark Place feel. :)

    A.... B....

    +Adhesive Boi scary music i recommend


    Suicide - Frankie Teardrop
    Swans - Weakling
    My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult - A Daisy Chain For Satan
    Coil - Are You Shivering?
    Paysage D'hiver - Eishalle
    Current 93 - The Inmost Light
    Orchid - Epilogue of a car crash
    Throbbing Gristle - Discipline
    SPK - Slogun
    Nurse With Wound - The Bottom Feeder

    A.... B....

    Flipper - Sacrifice (the live video)

    A.... B....

    i'd include The Cure - Pornography to zetsubou's list

    A.... B....

    also most Swans albums

  25. S.... C....

    @b Ross you realize J wrote this song right?

  26. B.... R....

    It's absolutely aimed at J. and nobody else.

    B.... R....

    I thought it was aimed at Uma Thurman

  27. d.... ....

    omg that sounds so amazing

  28. C.... S....

    Few songs match this one for sheer fucking savagery and its power to turn a shitty day at work into the best goddamned day of work you've ever had.

  29. C.... S....

    "Sounds like you still like me a little bit, Lou."

  30. t.... o....

    best comment ever!

  31. r.... w....

    Yeah. Not sure where I read it but it was in the early 90's, possibly in a music magazine. But it makes sense. There was at one time alot of dischord between them if what I read is true.

  32. E.... ....

    It says pretty much that in Azerrad's book, OUR BAND COULD BE YOUR LIFE.

  33. s.... ....

    It is actually more aimed towards people who you really want to like/not hate you, and they always do. for no particular reason at all.

  34. N.... ....

    friendzone song

  35. A.... ....

    Nice, sounds like you lucked out

  36. T.... Y....

    I feel dirty...

  37. D.... S....

    ummm.......fuck yessss

  38. B.... S....

    Kim Gordon doing this last night at the 25th anniversary show was just tooo gooood. best show i've ever been to.

  39. R.... ....

    Dont know if it is true or not but I read that Lou Barlow 's screaming question was directed to J. Could be bullshit but its just something I read in a music mag.

  40. M.... A....

    It still sounds better then that teen sprit crap lol

  41. S.... ....

    GNARLY!!

  42. S.... ....

    the loudest song I've ever heard.

  43. S.... Y....

    Amazing!!!!

  44. S.... ....

    SO sick.

  45. t.... ....

    well shit.

  46. s.... ....

    That was good Lou, but could we just hear it one more time with a bit more intensity?

    s.... ....

    synthstatic for some reason I read this with butch vig's voice in my head

    s.... ....

    He came close to hacking up blood after he did this.

  47. f.... y....

    This band isn't even metal you idiot.

  48. f.... y....

    All black metal bands suck dick.

  49. G.... ....

    My favorite Dinosaur Jr. song, and the perfect song to blast outside of your ex-girlfriend's window at 3 in the morning.

  50. d.... i....

    I used to think this was a pixies song... :)

  51. S.... ....

    @daimonicpossession and by far

  52. J.... L....

    fucking dappy advert - how insulting

  53. T.... ....

    @Rickswars Dude, I gave you a compliment! Who wouldn't want to be Marty McFly? He travels through time, has a hot girlfriend (in the first movie), and skatboards on the back of cars. I compare you to that dude and get called a troll, not cool bro. You truly are an enigma. I hope you respond to this, because I'm starting to enjoy reading these comments. Maybe you should write a book.

  54. T.... ....

    @meatpuppetsucd I'm pretty sure J wrote this song as a dick move, making Lous sing it. There's some irony to be gotten from the line "why don't you like me", get it?

    T.... ....

    And Lou was coughing up blood after the take

  55. T.... ....

    @Rickswars Haha, just admit it man, you have no idea what the fuck metal is. I don't know why you keep making these stupid comments defending your original post, it's getting a little ridiculous at this point.

    I must admit, now that I know you "rip the guitars into and blow out the amps", I do think think you sound like a badass. Kinda like Marty McFly or something.

  56. T.... ....

    @Rickswars This is the most fucking pointless comment I've ever heard...

    You should be commended on your ability to come off like a moron, though; the comments with no spaces are top notch.

  57. F.... A....

    @Rickswars Distortion pedals aren't EXCLUSIVE for metal music

  58. r.... ....

    @Rickswars Its sort of black metalish but its noise rock really.

  59. a.... ....

    @Rickswars Are you five? You misspelled "butt".

  60. r.... ....

    @Chickenpainter111 exactly, listen to sebadoh. lou writes incredible songs.

  61. R.... w....

    @AdoreWasAmazing i know that but face!

  62. F.... A....

    @Rickswars Distortion pedals aren't exclusive for metal music.

  63. p.... ....

    @Rickswars...Do a little more investigation before you make a comment...this band most likely influenced MUCH of the "Alternative" music you listen to today...It is not "Black Metal" by any means...like @AdoreWasAmazing said, "...this is fucking dinasaur jr." !!! Haha!!! :)

  64. A.... ....

    @Rickswars this isn't black metal asshat, this is fucking dinosaur jr.

  65. I.... ....

    @FuttBucker667 I saw them back in june, Lou didn't even sing it because he said his voice would be shot for weeks if he tried. Lol, they got some random dude to sing it.

  66. C.... Z....

    This is the heaviest song I have ever heard.

  67. S.... P....

    @wcleighty but it is so good as a deterrant for getting vermin out of yur digs ! I use it often and not as much as I should . !

  68. D.... T....

    WHY DON'T YOU LIKE MEEEEEEEE???????????????

  69. X.... ....

    @Booshtastic96 yeah, AWESOME show, but those dudes singing this one didn't give it the proper treatment.

  70. P.... R....

    @Booshtastic96 I was there too, it was an awesome show. I wish they would've picked me to sing, though.

  71. T.... G....

    I got to hear this at Cat's Cradle tonight it was insane.

  72. J.... ....

    @ItsNotColdEnough Ditto, saw them at the electric factory last night.

  73. I.... ....

    @FuttBucker667 I saw them live last night. Amazing show they played the full Bug album and 2 more songs as an encore. Best show i've ever seen in my life, but Lou didn't end up singing 'Don't' they got another singer for it but the show was still amazing, my face melted with all the lights and noise in the pit. Dinosaur Jr can really put on a show even now in 2011.

  74. M.... ....

    @kittenkraze13 fuck dude... i can relate

  75. G.... ....

    i'm gonna have this song play at my funeral

  76. F.... A....

    hoLY FUC

  77. n.... ....

    @FuttBucker667 im seeing them do it in june, im gonna look for it

  78. n.... ....

    @FuttBucker667 after he recorded it, he sang with such force.. amazing.

  79. H.... t....

    i love lou barlow

  80. A.... T....

    There any live videos of this song?

  81. f.... l....

    @Calvin324 that is absolutely horrible. good song, though.

  82. T.... T....

    Pure awesome. You can actually hear his emotion.

  83. E.... M....

    heard this song on a bside of a testprint---fukkin brutal

  84. N.... ....

    As soon as I hit 21 I went to a bar.. they played this album, and then cut this song off as soon as it came on... I shouted "What the fuck man!"...... and my bar life has been the same ever since.

  85. C.... ....

    Poor Lou.

  86. K.... S....

    Story of my life...

  87. A.... ....

    ^^^^^^^

  88. j.... ....
