Last of the Ghetto Astronaugts, Audio of Being, White Light Rock and Roll Review and Avalanche went gold. Underdogs and Beautiful Midnight were 2X Platnium

I have found all the demos on a torrent site once. I downloaded it all. Not on my iPod, but on my iTunes, I have: 99 songs, 7hrs 16mins 18 secs, 532.6mb of Matthew Good. That doesn't include Beautiful Midnight, Last of the Ghetto Astronauts or White Light Rock and Roll Review purly because I can't find Beautiful Midnight in this apartment (I think my sister got sick of me playing it and hid it on me), and I"m just tired of the 2 others.

Don't like Hope, eh? yeah, I wouldn't blame you!!

If you had a choice of picking out the singles for each album, what would be your picks? you don't have to give a reason, but it would be nice, because I'm not giving reasons right now because I'm tired, and I think this is a good thread and I didn't want to forget about it...later on I'll add my reasonings... GOOOO CRAZY!!!! Last of the Ghetto Astronauts 1. She's Got a New Disguise 2. Symbolistic White Walls 3. Fearless 4. Haven't Slept in Years Underdogs I think that the 3 songs (other then Rico) were excellent choices as singles. It was hard, but I picked FIVE...yes FIVE... 1. Industructable 2. Everything is Automatic 3. Prime Time Deliverence----When ever I listen to the song, I can picture a music video for it. The song has many different parts to it, and I think it could have a video kind of like Apparitions 4. Deep Six---This one would just be a really good rock radio song to be played during the summer/fall months. 5. Apparitions Beautiful Midnight Now, with this album, I think it's a tougher pick. Nothing really screams "SINGLE" except for Hello Time Bomb and Load Me Up. I'm trying to figure out a good "kick off" single for it, but I guess Hello Time Bomb was meant for the first single...and it works...It's just one of those albums where you HAVE to listen to it all to appreciate it. But as the title says, what would I pick as singles. 1. Hello Time Bomb 2. Failing the Rorschach Test 3. Born to Kill 4. Let's Get it On 5. Going All the Way Loser Anthems I think that the songs are here are AWESOME! The are just so...I don't know the word right now, but yeah...I think it deserved a single to it, even though Flashdance II was played on some radio stations. I'm going to have to say 1. Life Beyond the Minimum Safe Distance---This is my favourite song off this album. It just feels so sad...but make me feel warm inside... Audio of Being Audio of Being is another one of those albums where there really isn't anything that strikes you as "single." I think it is another album where in order to really appreciate it, you have to listen to it all the way through. 1. Carmelina---because I love the song, and I love the video...nuff said 2. Tripoli 3. The Fall of Man---could have had a really dark video too it. So much imagery in Matts songs...whenever I listen to his songs, I can think of some grand video... 4. The Workers Sing a Song of Mass Protest Avalanche Now, this is a grand album. It has songs I can think of as singles, but it's another album where you have to sit and listen to it. But it seems like it was written for singles. The only WRONG single that came off of it In my opinion was In A World Called Catastrophe. I think that song is terrible and the video was hooky... 1. Weapon 2. A Long Way Down 3. 21st Century Living 4. While We Were Hunting Rabbits 5. Lullaby for The New World Order White Light Rock and Roll Review Hmm...I dunno...I really like the album...but...yeah... 1. Alert Status Red 2. Empty Road 3. Buffalo Seven. In A Coma Oh be Joyful was the wrong song to be released. It shouldn't have...but as it was, it should have had a killer video for it. I think that Big City Life was a better fit, but whatever. 1. Big City Life 2. Tripoli (Rooms) 3. Truffle Pigs (Rooms) I picked the two songs off of Audio of Being from Rooms because I think that it gave the best representation, how songs really can be changed from one format to another. Tripoli just has this sense of sadness that would fit really nicely in a black and white video. Just sadness...could just be him sittion on a stool playing the song on guitar. I was utterly bored when I made this, but it's fun to do it I find. Now, you guys pick what you think would be! I want to see peoples choices!!

Then stop bumping them up to gain more in your post count so you can get stuff from the store! DAMN YOU! Anyway, at first I said Apparitions, but at closer inspection, I can't say it's overrated anymore. I have been able to listen to the song again, and I can't stop listening to it. As an overrated song for me, it would have to be The Rat Who Would Be King. Don't get me wrong, it's a good song, but there is only ONE part of the song that I like and that's closer to the end, otherwise I just find it boring. I'm not going to mention the singles other then Apparitions.

Okay, I'm like...totally broke right now...and I have enough for rent...luckily I just got a full-time job which rocks, but I guess I won't be getting a pay cheque for a few weeks or so... But anyway, I have no food in my house, as usual...but I can't really afford food right now, well, I can. My sister owes me money, same with a friend. But anyway, I was soooo hungry this evening, that I went and searched high and low in my cupboards for food and then I found the glorious, most awesomeness thing in the world---LIPTON CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP!!! Yum Yum Yum Yum Yum!!!!! And yes, that's what I"m eating RIGHT NOW!!! It's oh soo good because I threw in some extra speghetti noodles and put less of the stock in because it's icky when too much is in it. But yay!!! I forgot I had it! ;) Random thread!!!! JOY!!!

I went to G.P. Vanier...graded there...yup.. At one point I was supposed to move to Princeton...I think it was like 2004 or something like that and do grade 12 there. I don't know if that would have been a wise move on my parents behalf.

He's coming here in August. I really want to see him, but I can't. I really, really really really really really want to see him. Anyone want to buy me a ticket???!?!?! I want to meet him. I really do. I just want to chat with him, perhaps go get some food or something, and just sit and talk to him. I think it would be a very good conversation I would have with him. He just is soo cool.

I hated it when people clap after a movie is finished. I hate it soo much. That's what happened and I wanted to shout at them to stop clapping.

It was decent...for some reason I felt a little disappointed. I loved Phoenix. Oh man, the action was amazing...but...other parts were boring.
