The Lyrics

First, read parts 1 and 2 first. Again, all 12 tracks are in order along with all 5 band members are mentioned in one song. Reaching for straws here as most AIC fans know this already, but maybe a few more will be after this.
WE DIE YOUNG, is track one, a sad one
Yes you need , to get this, great album

Out came MAN IN THE BOX
Very first big hit
Won't you come and play me, play me

Such a crime ( SEA OF SORROW words )
BLEED THE FREAK ( I CAN'T REMEMBER )
LOVE, HATE, LOVE ( IT AIN'T LIKE THAT ), ohh
Black SUNSHINE ( PUT YOU DOWN I heard )

ah ah ah, ah ah ah, ah ah oh
ah ah ah, ah ah ah, ah ah oh

CONFUSION has odd beat
I KNOW SOMETHIN ( bout ) it
Won't you try the REAL THING, something?

Learn these rhymes ( can you open up )
Jesus Christ ( deny Seattle )
He who tries ( they are wasted ), ohh
Learn this time ( now you've opened up )

( solo )

Layne Staley ( He was lead vocals )
Jerry, C. ( Great guitar player )
Mike Inez ( Starrs* replacement ), ohh
Sean Kinney ( He was on the drums )

ah ah ah, ah ah ah, ah ah oh
ah ah ah, ah ah ah, ah ah oh
* Mike Starr, who was with AIC through FACELIFT, DIRT, and SAP, then Mike Inez ( bassist )replaced him.

This is a great one too! It's cool how you incorporate all the songs (in order) and band members names into these songs...that's not easy, but you successfully pulled it off. Excellent!!

Yeah, this one required alot of corrections. Had to make a FEW small changes here and there to make this work, but I do not think that a parody has ever been made that included all 12 ( or however many )songs ( in order ) off a album/8-track/tape/CD AND included all of the band member names into one parody ( though I'm probably wrong again lol ).

WOW, HOLY I mean I can't sing a song sayin' those tracks. HOW DO YOU DO IT? It's so wierd, so cool. Dude you are WAY better than me. Those triology song ROCK like he*l! My favorite guy in that band is Jerry Cantrell. I can play some of their songs on my guitar. I've got all of the albums except for Last Action Hero and Greatest Hits. You are so awesome!

If I recall correctly I gave you a 534 on your parody. I am by no means better than you but do happen to have the most AIC songs here. My first few were pretty bad as far as pacing and spelling mistakes. I have even gotten the SONG NAME wrong on 2 of them.

Not sure is you are being sarcastic or complimentary, but I will assume the latter being the naive self that I am. :)

Thanks Step-chan. Getting to your works soon, just need downloaded lyrics as well since most of your stuff I do not have lyrics to.

A song about AIC to a song from AIC on a site where very few people know AIC, I can now see why you didn't applied for the position as spin doctor in Kristof's party!

Interesting idea, 5s from me, and we all tend to write one or two about our favorite artists sooner or later, mine is and was hence about Motörhead

Yeah, I guess a bad idea on TOS choice, but considering if anyone knows an Alice song its either this or Rooster, I fiqured I'd try.

Well, lyrics wise, I obviously give it a 5 because well, I did on the other two, but I can't vote because I am not yet capable of matching the lyrics with the way he sings the OS, too hard for me, but good job on the writing.

Thanks for the look. What might be choking you up a bit is on this is that the intro "ah ah ah" is the first 18 words here, which I had to change to fit in "We Die Young". There is some major stretching of syllables here and the paranthetical words are the background vocals.
