the all american rejects

i love their song spin spin, and damn they're not bad lookin either!

biography While growing up in Stillwater, Oklahoma, both All-American Rejects vocalist/bassist Tyson Ritter and guitarist/programmer Nick Wheeler played guitar in junior high bands, turning to music to escape the small-town doldrums. Yet the two budding musicians didn't cross paths until Wheeler and his band performed at a party one night, where Ritter--who'd never played bass before in his life--impulsively joined them onstage as their bassist. Determined to stay in Wheeler's band, Ritter immediately purchased a bass guitar and learned to play within weeks. Wheeler, a big Def Leppard and '80s glam-rock fan, and the AC/DC-inspired Ritter built a songwriting friendship throughout high school, and as the rest of the group disintegrated, they stuck together and played gigs around Stillwater as a duo, backing themselves with programmed drum loops on Wheeler's keyboard. The pair recorded several demos, which gave them plenty to choose from when laying down tracks in the studio with producer Tim O'Heir (Superdrag, Sebadoh) for their self-titled debut album, after the band became official with the addition of Mike Kennerty (guitar) and Chris Gaylor (drums). The All-American Rejects released their first independent album in spring 2000, which hit the airwaves of local Oklahoma radio stations, consequently creating a massive local buzz and helping them land gigs opening for the Flaming Lips and Caroline's Spine. The following summer, they released the EP Same Girl, New Songs and toured the Midwest, returning home with a record contract with Doghouse Records (Get Up Kids, River City High). DreamWorks re-released The All-American Rejects a year later, and the album's unbelievably catchy, powerpoppy first single, "Swing Swing," immediately received nationwide radio airplay.	swing swing lyrics Days swiftly come and go. I'm dreaming of her She's seeing other guys Emotions they stir The sun is gone. The nights are long And I am left while the tears fall. Did you think that I would cry, on the phone? Do you know what it feels like, being alone? I'll find someone new Swing, Swing, Swing from the tangles of My heart is crushed by a former love Can you help me find a way To carry on again. Wish cast into the sky I'm moving on Sweet beginnings do arise She knows I was wrong The notes are old, They bend, they fold and so do I to a new love. Bury me (you thought your problems were gone) Carry me (away. away, away...)	Heading4 Description here

So bottle up old love, And throw it out to sea, Watch it away as you cry Now a year has past The seasons go Please just don't play with me My paper heart will bleed This wait for destiny won't do Be with me please I beseach you Simple things, that make you run a-way Catch you if I can Waiting, day to day it goes through My lips, are sealed for her My tongue is, Tied to, a dream of being with you To settle for less, is not what I prefer Summer time, the nights are so long The leaves fall down, and so do I into the arms of a friend Winter nights My bedside is cold, for I am gone And spring blossoms you to me	anuva of nick THE LAST SONG LYRICS This may be the last thing that i write for long Can you hear me smiling when i sing this song, for you and only you As I leave will you be someone to say good-bye As I leave will you be someone to wipe your eye My foot is out the door, and you can't stop me now You wanted the best, it wasn't me, will you give it back Now i'll take the lead, when there's no more room to make it grow I'll see you again, you'll pretend you're naive, is this what you want Is this what you need, how you end up let me know. As I go, remember all the simple things you know, My mind is just a crutch and I still hope, that you will miss me when I'm gone This is the last song The hearts start breaking as the year is gone The dream's beginning and the time rolls on It seems so surreal, now I sing it. Somehow I knew that I would be this way, Somehow I knew that I would slowly fade. Now i'm gone, just try and stop me now. And will you need me now, you'll find a way somehow You want it too, I want it too.
