For a while, I had a disturbing amount of friends who loved this band. I though they were joking. No. They liked Counting Crows. A lot.
I had to admire their unbiased love for an un-hip band, but sorry guys, they are total crap.
But, for other reasons, I'm not really friends with any of those people anymore. I no long endure Mr. Duritz, his fat ass, and his fake dreads.

I want to kick them all square in the nuts, just for their friend of the devil cover.

I hate this band with all my being.
Which isn't as much as I hate Dave Matthews, but it's a lot.

Six NOT CRAP votes?! I suppose I can't throw stones, since I mistakenly added one of those. But that means there are 5 people out there with a lot of 'splaining to do!
There's nothing defensible about this band. It'd be nice if they and the Spin Doctors spent the next 30 years or so passing syphilis back and forth.

I will paint my picture
Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray
All of the beautiful colors are very very meaningful
Grey is my favorite color
I felt so symbolic yesterday
If I knew Picasso
I would buy myself a gray guitar and play
...
Mr. Jones and me stumbling through the barrio
Yeah we stare at the beautiful women
"She's perfect for you, Man, there's got to be somebody for me."
I want to be Bob Dylan
Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
When everybody loves you, son, that's just about as funky as you can be
seriously.
what the hell, people.

And then that chalala part is so stolen from Wire's "Mannequin".
Plain rip-off.

i think long december is an excellent song. i don't think counting crows are very good on the whole but they could have been better. also, if you ever spot that talking heads record on yr shelf and wonder if cc covered the song "mr jones" i would put the record down immediately cause they didn't, although both songs do suck equally. so the theme is: don't name yr song mr jones. it's doomed from the get.

Had work-related happy hour/mixer thing last night. Walk into the back bar where it's being held and the first song I hear is by Counting Crows. The follow-up? Yep, the Spin Doctors.
They're dragging the East River for the DJ's body this morning...
