Mr. DS

Hopefully we should get a lot of nominations for this thread.  Looking mainly for songs where the lead singer is complaining or whining about something.  For example...

Not to knock the bands, cause I love em, but couldn't this thread exist SOLELY on material released by Alice in Chains and Nirvana?

Yeah.  But to be fair, it is a rough lifestyle.  Granted, I'm sure nobody pointed a gun at him to make him start, but once that first taste of the apple gets bitten, it's VERY hard to deal with the consequences, based off of experiences I've encountered.

Most anysong by Black Flag,the Dead Kennedys,the Sex Pistols...and most punk bands. Except the Ramones or the Cramps. Theres "b***hin' about s**t" punk-and-"We just like to act like idiots and have fun" punk.
