honestly, while I like the solo in the 8m Drown cut, I think Shine is probably the better song

Billy's Instagram might be the best thing about the band right now.

"the spiritual lyric “Heaven let your light shine down” oft-quoted between the “yeahs” that pepper the instantly recognizable song."

The b0llster continues his brigade of grooming hot 20 year old artist women who are just happy someone famous is taking an interest in them.
Linda, Jessica Veronica, Chloe.... Fucking disgusting. Not to mention Courtney’s twitter remark a few years ago about Billy being weirdly obsessed with Frances Bean. Guy is a fucking CREEP. |

Hahahaha, I just saw Collective Soul play with Gin Blossoms over the weekend. I'm not a super fan or anything but here's some rambling thoughts...
Shine was the 2nd song they played...probably wanted to get it done early. They played it with a piano intro. It sounded pretty good! Ed Roland walked out before their set and I didn't even recognize him. He was wearing a weird scarf hat with his hair in a ponytail. He went out to talk about a guitar they were auctioning off (one at every show?) that was signed by both bands to raise money for a cancer charity that Robin Wilson works with. They have a new album coming out in a few weeks and they were selling CDs of it at the show but they sold out before I could get one. I'm surprised I haven't seen it leaked online yet. It seemed like a short show. They kind of dragged out the endings of their songs. I wish they'd gone right into the next song more often...maybe fit more songs in. I was more interested in watching their drummer Johnny Rabb though and how he played and had his kit set up. He used to be the world record fastest drummer, and has worked with electronic drum companies and has played drum and bass style stuff. If Billy is still upset today about losing a lawsuit over a song that doesn't sound very similar to his (to me, at least) that's really pretty lame. I'd hope there's more to it than that. It should be aincient history at this point. |

I never thought Drown and Shine sounded anything alike. The only similarity I see is between Shine and Snail. The brief guitar riff Billy does with A chord before the full band kicks in is similar to the Shine riff, but in a different key, Shine is in the key of D. Either way it's sour grapes and he was just pissed because they had a huge hit before SP did. I would even venture to say that commercially Shine was a bigger hit than any SP song period.

I think it's kind of a dig at how soft and left-wing the overall vibe of Netphoria has become... That's why he tied in the gluten-free dig.

Well, they were probably listening to more than the 90s "throwback" station on Sirius FM, if that's what you mean

I can't believe no one brought up the Collective Soul, Billy Corgan diss track
Beggar's description Of what I've been missing Exploit your position Don't think I didn't listen Hey I hope you're feeling A little better now Success is so tragic Pain is your gadget Your tongue's just lashing Just bitching by habit Hey I hope you're feeling A little purer now Hey I hope you're feeling Securer now Help me I plea I don't understand Your ways and your means You smashing young man Help me to see The good you have planned You're wearing me thin You smashing young man You preach synthetic-like Peace is an oversight It's nothing to ignite Your self-lit spotlight Hey I hope you're feeling A little special now Hey I want to tell you I think you're special now Help me I plea I don't understand Your ways and your means You smashing young man Help me to see The good you have planned You're wearing me thin You smashing young man I don't recall asking for guidance I don't recall wanting to I don't recall bowing before you But I'm so impressed With the kindness in your attitude Help me I plea I don't understand Your ways and your means You smashing young man Help me to see The good you have planned You're wearing me thin You smashing young man... repeat.

Dude can’t even get his analogies right.
When he was young it was Nuclear War. In the 90’s it was the Millenium. He’s right there will always be ‘End of Days’ fears, but Climate Change isn’t weather, you ignorant moron, Billy. It’s always one step forward, two steps back with this guy, he’s a fucking lunatic. |

It wasn't a hit in the UK / Ireland. In fact, I don't think Collective Soul ever had any reach this side of the pond. I certainly had never heard of them, and I grew up listening to alternative rock in the early 90s, read Melody Maker every week, etc etc.
