Lyrics?

staplegunned-
it was in the lobby when i set my sights on you
should have kissed you in the elevator but i was too scared too
it was in the mourning when i made up my mind
i want you staplegunned right to my side all of the time
oooo

(chorus)
do i have to spell it out for you, or scream it in your face
o the chemistry between us could destroy this place
do i have to spell it out for you, or whisper in you ear
o just stop right there i think that we've got something here

we were all alone when i finally made a ??pass?? at you
it didn't work i know it never does, but you know i do
we were on the phone when i made up my mind
i want you staplegunned to my side all of the time
woah

(chorus) x2

woah's

[TheNumberOneFan]

this is amazing. i'm shocked he's not on a major label yet.


THEY

[SonEric84]

haha. same here man. i am working on the lyrics for the dutch courage and this is for keeps


They accidentally labeled "break a leg" as "this is for keeps" on PV.

[juan_believes]

pretty good

[straythumb]

the dutch courage gets better and better everytime i listen to it. haha they are gonna get so many plays on purevolume.

[Jared Kaufman]

the dutch courage gets better and better everytime i listen to it. haha they are gonna get so many plays on purevolume.
The intro / beginning of that song reminds me of Iron & Wine for some reason.

[TheNumberOneFan]

im slightly more partial to the non-acoustic songs... but they're all so amazing.... :love:

[SLADE775]

holy shit i am freaking out


me too. holy shit me too....and I dont even have speakers.

[TheNumberOneFan]

im slightly more partial to the non-acoustic songs... but they're all so amazing.... :love:

I lied... i listened to Self-Conclusion...

wow that man can write an acoustic song like nobody's business

[Jason Tate]

The Dutch Courage is so good, I love that song. And from what people have been saying, "this is for keeps" is labeled wrong, it's actually the song "break a leg." What a great album; but of course, everyone already knew I was going to say that.

[straythumb]

back to back amazing news. i got pumped for cartel, and now these. today was a good day

[Jared Kaufman]

What a great album; but of course, everyone already knew I was going to say that.

haha

[unwritten]

Wow, this is great. :love:

[HailTheHartBrak]

Wow what a great surprise. This album does sound like it will be as good as tate was saying. Someone more talented than me should rip all of these right away for out listening pleasure.

[Handsome&Smart]

Wow, so far this sounds like quite a step up from Sunsets and Car Crashes, and that is a pretty good compliment seeing as Sunsets was so amazing.

[daBNmaradona]

wow :)

[xacex]

My goodness... it's good stuff. The songs are all about love and girls which can get old, but they find ways to make the lyrics more creative than cheesy, which kind of makes it okay <3.

[Jason Tate]

"The Dutch Courage" is about our forums ..

.. or it should be.

[xacex]

"The Dutch Courage" is about our forums ..

.. or it should be.

Hahaha. Yet, a great song.

[AreTwoKay]

Damnit now my anticipation is growing even more for this album

[Handsome&Smart]

Right now after 3 listens of all the songs, my favorite song is "Break a Leg" (titled This is for Keeps on PV). It is just so catchy.
"Not even hell could be hotter than you right now," I love :luvu: that line, it is so catchy.

[muzik4lyf5000]

Big step up from sunsets. good stuff

[Mitch]

OMFG The song Dutch Courage is awesome, haven't listened to the others on their Purevolume yet

[ummmmmmmmm182]

When is this album coming out again?

[jstplainamy]

this is heaven. those spill canvas boys are so nice to give us a few more peeks at the new album, which, by the way, is going to be the album of the year.

[beauty is dead]

what ever happened to 'the tide' video? that ever come out. if anyone has it, id love to see it.

[tenmmowned]

I never really liked "Sunsets and Car Crashes," except for The Tide. That song is damn amazing, but this new shit is crazy. Staplegunned just screams "Listen to me!!!" And the Dutch Courage gets better with every listen, like the others have said. This cd is going to be high on my To buy list.. When does it come out again?

[Ender217]

for whatever reason, i think the demo version of Self Conclusion sounds better. and i didn't the added strings part fit correctly.

[Fullcollapse3k]

This won't be Sunsets and Car Crashes, but it sounds good. A lot better than I thought it would thankfully.

[jstplainamy]

[I am Brad]

I agree it wont be Sunsets and Car Crashes, but this is still gonna be one of the best cds of the year by far.... The Dutch Courage great song

[beauty is dead]

http://www.111records.com/v3/subpages/media.html

hey thanks

[CarrieTheGreat]

oh my god oh my god oh my god.
i am so excited.
this is going to be one of the best albums of the year hands down.

j'aime staplegunned. :)

[SicTrnsitGloria]

This won't be Sunsets and Car Crashes, but it sounds good. A lot better than I thought it would thankfully.
Sunsets was amazing. But I'm a bigger fan of their acoustic songs, so ill see how i like this album. But all that aside, i still think this album holds the top seed for best of 05, that is, if brand new doesn't release.
They re-labeled "This is for keeps"...it reads "Break A Leg" now as everyone thought.

But the whole full band thing makes me skeptic. Nick and Joe are clearly the brains behind the whole operation. Reminds me of Max Bemis in Say Anything.

[LPMagic]

Is the tracklisting out for this? I see the 5 new songs, but I just want to make sure Teleport: A&B is gonna be on there. Either way, these are awesome.

- Jeff

[theunibomber]

:love:

[archamedes]

Teleport A to B is my favorite song on the album but its not up there. There are so many more amazing songs on the album.

[k80inator]

:insert multiple orgasms here:

yeah... this is going to be.... awesome.

album. of. the. year.
hands.down.

[TheNumberOneFan]

Is the tracklisting out for this? I see the 5 new songs, but I just want to make sure Teleport: A&B is gonna be on there. Either way, these are awesome.

- Jeff

search the news posts.. its in there somewhere

and yes A&B is on there

[splitsecond]

This stuffy is really really good, but I dont think its album of the year.

[hipvlr06]

1. A Prima Vista
2. Staplegunned
3. Polygraph, Right Now!
4. Dutch Courage
5. Natalie Marie and 1cc
6. Teleport: A & B
7. Break A Leg
8. This is For Keeps
9. Himerus and Eros
10. Valiant
11. Secret Oath
12. Bound to Happen
13. Self-Conclusion

I believe that is correct.

[1000shadesofred]

wow good... i might fall in love with this band again!

[walshknilb281]

I said to myself today I need a Brand New update or some new Spill Canvas. Kinda made my day ...except i got puled over for throwin water ballons at kids

[so typical]

good stuff

[Bucc4019]

it sounds like a acceptance song or something.

[BrandFuckingNew]

I said to myself today I need a Brand New update or some new Spill Canvas. Kinda made my day ...except i got puled over for throwin water ballons at kids
i used to do that shit in high school. so much fucking fun. hitting old people and whatnot.

[Rohan Kohli]

Good stuff, I really like Valiant with the "new" vocal and instrumental harmonies (based on what I heard from the demo).

[Jim Morgan]

"The Dutch Courage" is about our forums ..

.. or it should be.

being a coward isn't a legitamite career

[atticusfinch]

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME.

"The Dutch Courage" has to be my favorite track out of the five.

Yummy.

[Tomte]

i really like the new songs.
but the PV version of self conclusion ruined the good feeling of the demo which was up on here.
it´s too fast.
i prefer the relaxed feeling of the demo. good songs though.

[JunkBondTrader]

so far i dont really like "staplegunned"....reminds me of a number one fan/coheed and cambria (withouth claudios vox) i have no idea why...who knows everyone will probably think im crazy

not liking the dutch courage either......better than staplegunned though

i dont know...i guess i just dont get this band.....i tried tate

"ooo not even hell could be hotter than you right now"......ehhhhhhhh i cringe whenever i hear that

[mediocrgreenday]

ehh.. not bad but not amazing.

[tom lascola]

leaked.

[CarlRyan]

self-conclusion is the best out of the 5

[socrushmebaby]

Hmm...listening to these finished songs kinda makes me wish i didn't listen to the demos for some reason...i keep comparing them.

[AreTwoKay]

I said to myself today I need a Brand New update or some new Spill Canvas. Kinda made my day ...except i got puled over for throwin water ballons at kids
Hahaha nice

[emoboy83084]

god i dont know about you all but my fav is self conclusion that track rocks dude like 20 times in arow now i have listen to it

[badnewsherald]

and they are on a major labe;Sunsets was amazing. But I'm a bigger fan of their acoustic songs, so ill see how i like this album. But all that aside, i still think this album holds the top seed for best of 05, that is, if brand new doesn't release.

wow. i think it is unfair to say that, especially when you don't know any of them and didn't see how the songs were constructed.. they (and I mean all 4) have poured their hearts into this cd. i'm sorry, that just pisses me off.

[yedttl]

this bands vibe is three doors down meets other generic rock bands of the mid 90s. talk about over-hyped.

[TheNumberOneFan]

i fail to hear any generic 90's in this band

ESPECIALLY 3 doors down


you blew it man... :headshake

New Spill Canvas

Honestly I want to like the albums I'm listening to but the music industry is sucking majorly right now.

Does anybody else think Lust A Prima Vista is trying a bit too hard to be "Me Vs. Maradona vs. Elvis" in terms of taking advantage of a girl.

Then the following track , "Staple-Gunned", is cornier than many MXPX songs. So he went from taking advantage to being scared? Holy Sic Transit Gloria to Me Vs. Maradona vs. Elvis.

Polygraph,, Right Now - LOL - King of this pity party - I won't lie this is insanely catchy but it just seems sophomoric and seems like a step back lyrically.

The Dutch Courage - This is an amazing song with killer lines like "as inebriated as you can get on your last pay check." and "coward career" and they do a killer outro on this song and I think this is what Spill Canvas needs to do to mask their repeating of lines much like TBS/Brand New. They should do this more often cause a major flaw of this album is some lines he writes are good but get tiresome after the 4th time he repeats them.

Natalie Marie - Like I said before this is boring, too much repeating.

Teleport - yawn..... he's a lot better when he just lets it go.

Break A Leg - Holy Matchbox 20

This Is For Keeps - If you're into slowed down stuff than this might be for you but his voice is kept in the background far too much for my liking. He's got talent, he should use it.

Himerus and Eros - Again, I'll pass. I'm just not buying this, it just lacks the intensity of the first and I 'm wondering if he's even buying into this song.

Valiant - Probably the worst song on the record, too slow for my tastes. A secret garden, too? What with magical gnomes? And lowering into the bay... Play Crack The Sky? Good lord, why doesn't he just change his name to Jesse Lacey Jr.

Oh cause he still writes lyrics like jealous ZOMBIES

Secret Oath - Good premise, bad presentation

Bound To Happen - Did he forget how to rock out?

The problem is with these slow songs unlike Deja, it just completely kills the momentum.

You guys can shit over it all you want but this is a mediocre album masked by two killer songs
The Dutch Courage and Self-Conclusion.

Self-Conclusion - Very cool because it's his element that he should go afrer a lot more... Drama punk/story-teller rock/ the other stuff is just mediocre compared to what he's capable of . So while I'd give it about a 7 out of 10, it's not the album of the year, and the fact of the matter if this is even being considered I think I agree with Night mare of You...

Dear Scene, I Wish I Were Deaf

Lesson To Be Learned: Don't try to be Jesse Lacey or Rob Thomas

no one will ever respect your opinion.. you make very few understandable and valid points..

Also, I dont understand where all of these Brand New references are coming from... :huh:

But the whole full band thing makes me skeptic. Nick and Joe are clearly the brains behind the whole operation. Reminds me of Max Bemis in Say Anything.

remember my friends:
there's no "i" in "team",
and no "i" in "album of the year." :)

The Spill Canvas - One Fell Swoop
A Rebuttal by Yours Truly

Honestly I want to like the albums I'm listening to but the music industry is sucking majorly right now.

One, the music industry does not exist. There is no industry. There's bands making music everywhere as has been the case for decades now. Look at all the labels and genres there are now. Maybe there are a lot of crappy albums out, but there are a lot of good ones too. Open up your ears, read around, and you'll find them.

Does anybody else think Lust A Prima Vista is trying a bit too hard to be "Me Vs. Maradona vs. Elvis" in terms of taking advantage of a girl.

Were you asking a question or making a statement? In either case, I don't think it sounds like "Me vs. Maradona vs. Elvis" at all. Brand New's "Deja Entendu" is on a level all it's own and you seem to try and make multiple comparisons with the two albums. Please, go out and listen to more albums and stop trying to make the point that you (as most of us have) have listened to Deja Entendu dozens of times. "Lust a Prima Vista" is an appropriate opening track with clapping and a very steady beat.

Then the following track , "Staple-Gunned", is cornier than many MXPX songs. So he went from taking advantage to being scared? Holy Sic Transit Gloria to Me Vs. Maradona vs. Elvis.

Again, an off the wall comparison. MxPx??? Are you sure you're listening to The Spill Canvas?

Polygraph,, Right Now - LOL - King of this pity party - I won't lie this is insanely catchy but it just seems sophomoric and seems like a step back lyrically.

I'm not sure what "sophomoric" entails, but this is TSC's 2nd album, so I guess in a way you're right no matter what it entails. The lyrics seem pretty typical, although I do admit that THIS song is a bit corny with that "king of this pity party with my jewel encrusted crown" line.

Blah, blah, blah, this album is boring.

I don't know how you could find this album boring if you're a fan of TSC at all.

Teleport - yawn..... he's a lot better when he just lets it go.

Best song on the album, in my opinion.

Break A Leg - Holy Matchbox 20

The first thing I read that I could at least follow you on. Although next time I think you should expand or at least sound more intelligent than saying "Holy Matchbox 20."

This Is For Keeps - If you're into slowed down stuff than this might be for you but his voice is kept in the background far too much for my liking. He's got talent, he should use it.

What do you mean? He's singing on a song. Blame the producer, don't blame his supposed lack of talent.

Himerus and Eros - Again, I'll pass. I'm just not buying this, it just lacks the intensity of the first and I 'm wondering if he's even buying into this song.

Again, what do you mean? This song has solid intensity... it may rely more on the instruments than his vocals, but some songs should.

Good premise, bad presentation.

Kind of what I want to say about your review. It's fine if you don't like the record and want to go through it song by song, but your points are awful and lack evidence.

Bound To Happen - Did he forget how to rock out?

Yeah, because Sunsets and Car Crashes was Nick's answer to Metallica. :headshake

Dear Scene, I Wish I Were DeafYou deserve to be if you're going to review albums like that.

Lesson To Be Learned: Don't try to be Jesse Lacey or Rob Thomas

Lesson to be learned: You're not a good album reviewer.

yay... Jeff knows what he's talking about! :animateds

This will be amazing
