    Sublime is the only Ska I listen to.

    Brad Nowell.... sad though, losing him to heroin. Ick. I can't stand people who shoot. They'll rape a blind man for a dollar.

    Their cover of Scarlet Begonias is interesting... :D

    As I was walkin' down rubadub square
    not a chill to the wind but a nip to the air
    from another direction she was caught in my eye
    It could be an illusion but I might as well try
    might as well try

    she had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes
    and I knew without asking- she was into the blues
    she wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls
    I knew right away she was not like other girls
    like other girls

    Well I ain't never been right as I ain't never been wrong
    as heaven works out the way it does in this song (hey)
    'cuz once in awhile you get shown in the light in the strangest of places
    if you look at it right

    It was the summer of love and I thank the stars above
    because the woman took a lovin' over me
    and just to gain her trust I bought a microbus
    because I sold off all my personal property

    A tight tye-dye dress she was a psychadelic mess
    we toured to the north, south, east, and west
    we sold some mushroom tea we sold some ecstasy, we sold nitrous, opium,
    acid, heroin, and pcp

    and now I hear the police comin' after me
    yes now I hear the police comin' after me
    the one scarlet with the flowers in her hair she's got the police comin'
    after me

    but there ain't nothin' wrong with the way she moves
    all scarlet begonias and a touch of the blues
    and there ain't nothin' wrong with the love that's in her eye
    I had to learn the hard way just to let her pass by
    let it pass by
    oh just let her pass by

    Whoo.. mushroom tea.

    my ears have been beatin into submission by sublime...all through high school, every party, thats about 92% of all they would listen to. I cant really listen to them much anymore, just way to much...

    i like the specials though. Sublime covered part of "a message to you rudie" at the end of one of their songs.

    Yeah, that's the only problem. Way too much overplay.

    although there really ARE many different types of music, some are just so close to eachother...its cause people feel the need to sound more original then the band before them, even though they sound very much alike.

    Some ska is real sweet, and some is obnoxious. Like Reel Big Fish, IMO.
