Sorry if I made this thread seem promotional....

Favorite 311 song and why...Lets hear them...


Mine is " Amber" The lyrics are sweet, and significant, and I love getting stoned and singing it... Read the lyrics..Its beautiful...


Brainstorm
take me away from the norm
I got to tell you something
this phenomenon
I had to put it in a song
and it goes like

Whoa, amber is the color of your energy
whoa, shades of gold displayed naturally
you ought to know what brings me here
you glide through my head blind to fear
and I know why
whoa, amber is the color of your energy
whoa, shades of gold displayed naturally

Whoa, amber is the color of your energy
whoa, shades of gold displayed naturally

You live too far away
your voice rings like a bell anyway
don't give up your independence
unless it feels so right
nothing good comes easily
sometimes you gotta fight

Whoa, amber is the color of your energy
whoa, shades of gold displayed naturally
launched a thousand ships in my heart, so easy
still it's fine from afar, and you know that
whoa, brainstorm take me away from the norm
whoa, I got to tell you something

Purpose because its so mellow and the words flow so well together. I don't know, I just love that song.

311 - Down

I used to work at the skating rink, and they would be really strict about the music we could play but the one manager loved 311 so he let me play this all the time. (once i became manager there would be hatebreed and nothingface playing during a family skate and the 'couple' skate song would be flaw - only the strong (acoustic))

'have you ever made out in dark hallways
displaced a kiss that made your day'

that line rocks

I HATE HATE HATE that song. Sorry...... I do like Down though.

[BrandNewDream]

My favorite 311 song might have to be Random. I just love the guitar parts and the hooks right before the chorus. Great stuff.

[angie710]

To each his own...I just love "Amber" because it special.....


Down is great, too....Randowm does have a catchy hook...

People who cant see obvious sarcasm and "ball busting" amuse me .... **points up**

[Absolute Mest]

I like 311 but I've only seen their videos and never actually bothered to listen any of their songs other than what I hear/watch on Fuse/MM

Down was the first song I ever heard by 311, on MTV, when I was like 7. I've listened to it ever since.

Random's hook.

Jackolantern's chorus is catchy as hell.

You Wouldn't Believe is just an all around amazing song, it blew me away the first time I heard it.

Creatures did the same.

Amber is just a real good mellow song.

[angie710]

Thanks for the breakdown, Jerry! Yeah, Amber is quite the mellow song...I <3 it...

...wait a minute *looks around*.... i'm not a three one one fan.....
