Talk about A.W.K? Have you listened to "I Get Wet"? Their isn't a spoken word allowed on that CD, it shouldn't be allowed here. Andrew fell out of the intensity sky and hit a million adoring (and screaming) fans all the way down. I told my buddies to get tickets, the best they could come up with is Disturbed. I love Disturbed as much as the next guy, but i wanna get all riled up. Let's face it, sometimes Disturbed, well ..... they stop. We know as much isn't true with Andrew. Keep up the good lyrics with tasty ass guitar licks, the people are asking for it. My bad, they're screaming for it.

ciao andrew wk
>>By culo
you are so awesome especially your song party hard it keeps going through the day and gets me pumped for tomorrow
>>By theo
she is beautiful.
Andrew is the most energenic and to the point music I've ever heard. I enjoy listening to it all the time. It gets me pumped up for all sorts of things. Before a party, after, or durring his music is the kind to listen to. Today in order to get a good party tape you need to mix it from different songs. On "I Get Wet" you don't need to do any of that. It is all good songs that can relate to any happy get-together. However, the organization of the songs could be alot better...

>>By Jarryd

i so love andrew wk. when im out and they play that i get well hyper and excited... just something about him that attracts me and makes me happy.
does anybody know the name of a slow song he did? I seem to have a memory in my head of a song he did that was like a slow song but for the life of me i dont remember it. i dnt even know if it was him im almost certain it was but its doing my head in.

Hey! Go do a line of Drano! This guy sucks! Really! If you played a timbalee through a stretched pigs anus and into a cheap mic... maybe as good as A.Wk. but its "a long stretch"! HA! Really... please... support so many others that are ahead of this by leaps and bounds. Ok... riiight... I'm not official... lemme look on the net............. here:

Sorry that I didn't have the normal post of (pick one): 1) He's great/awesome/sweet/cool. 2) I've been to a AWK concert, and it was great/awesome/sweet/cool. 3) Writing as if AWK reads this. ("your song kicks ass!")
I have good points for disliking him: hearing him in Michigan, reading his interviews, and having people who talk about him that are wired or incoherent or adreniline junkies spawned by watch waay too much Jackass.
Last time I checked, this was a discussion forum, not a fanclub. Deal with someone not liking something.
>>By Johnny L
theres not liking something and theres just looking for fights... you come onto a site and everybody likes him and instead of thinking hhmm well they are entitled to thier opinion and leaving it you swan in and give shit purely to write something different.... im so sick of people trying to be different for the sake of it.. its pathetic. You have your opinion by all means but there are ways of giving it... nobody on here was being abusive about it until you came along and you think you have the right to say things like that and not get something back? Discussion means you get a reply and thats what you got from me.... did you honestly think that you could say something like that and not have someone retaliate?
it was a friendly discussion until someone came looking for a fight... and thats all you did you didnt say those things for any other reaosn other than to do that... if that was your opinion of him i doubt you would have come in here.
>>By spookygoth
[sigh] What? Really, your a little too worked up Spooky Gothic Chic.
I saw that people were discussing him and I wanted to find out what others thought of his music. Instead, the "discussion" (if you could call it that because nobody is "discussing" anything) only gave my theory of AWK's music, and listeners, even more credibility. And now you.
I gave three valid points, no four - including the article, why I don't like his music. Have you even read the article? I haven't heard any response as of yet. And "looking for a fight"? Comon now, that's just silly. Why would I want to change your mind about AWK? You already like him. I'm just putting my post up there for anybody else that wanders in here and hasn't made up their mind about him. You know, to let them know that they can either spend their money on his album or give it to a local squatter to take a crap in your shoe. It's roughly about the same type of entertainment. Didn't I mention in my first post that there were plenty of other bands that could be supported instead of him?
And Spooky Gothic Chic, you didn't happen to notice the DATES of the other posts did you? Ol' Andy has been looong gone. But, I bet he's still making the rounds for the punters.
Thanks for your wonderful and informative reply though! Cheers! PS: What's a "reaosn"?
>>By Johnny L
i dont believe everything thats written since the majoirty of the time they get it wrong... mis quote and more often than not dont have a clue what they are on about.. Never said your points wernt valid... but it doesnt mean you didnt say them purely to cause some kind of reaction. You were looking for a fight dear... why else would you post such a thing... if you posted something like i dnt like him or his music.. then i would have left it... but you used a somewhat patronising arrogant tone "If you played a timbalee through a stretched pigs anus and into a cheap mic... maybe as good as A.Wk. but its "a long stretch"! HA!" Now expressing an opinion is one thing but if you wouldnt call that starting something then what would you aside from physically abusing him and his supporters?
there are bands better than him admittedly... but still there was no need to be so fuckin rude and childish about it.... like you know better than everybody else... and why becoz you read some article... expolre the web and see how many articles you find that contradict that one of yours... as if you believe every word a piece of media tells you... if you did that then you really are truely pathetic dear.
incidently dates mean nothing unless your sad enough to take them into account... the dates of peoples posts dont make me like him any less or you any less of an arse.
i hope this makes your day... you got what you wanted, you caused a little fight... go brag about write it down in your diary "today i wrote something stupid and unnecessary just to cause trouble and it worked *giggle* " then when youve grown up look back on it youll see what i mean. I knew kids in school more mature than this.
>>By spookygoth
Wait wait.. I'm sorry, I was going to let this die, but this is just too funny.
What in the hell are you carrying on about?!
How can an opinion article "be wrong"?!? It's an OPINION. People who don't "have a clue" might get weeded out of the music review business pretty quickly, so I think that the columnist has a lot more knowledge then you or I.
My lord.. the rest of your post just reads like a tyrannical rant from a three year old... "physically abusing him"... "rude and childish" ... and somebody is "pathetic" if they do a little research before posting? (You might take a lesson from that.) BUT, this is my favorite part... some prattling on about writing in a diary and growing up and "looking back" with some sense of remorse! Oh man... sorry, but that was a great laugh.
Without really going into to many "off topic" comments... you can calm down the rhetoric and try and concentrate on why you think Andrew is so good. Unless, of course, you use a lot of meth... then that might be a good reason.
>>By Johnny L
haha three year olds cant rant... nor write or form opinions of there own.
Hmm your entry sounds familiar... ahhh yes i had similar responses in school when i said i was going to make something of myself.... funny how all those that behaved like you didnt get into college or university and i have more under my belt than most students.
ahh graphic designer yes i can see now that obviosuly makes you a musical expert.
if opinions arnt wrong then niether is mine.
>>By spookygoth
Again, you... are ... mental!
But this is so funny I can't stop! Who cares that your classmates didn't get into a university? For that matter who cares what "you have under your belt"? This isn't a motivational speaking forum. You idiot, I was waiting to hear why you think he is so good. But there you go, off again.
The only expertise I'm getting from this conversation is that AWK fans lack communicative skills. (I'm amazed that you got through high school with your train of logic.)
Yes. I am a graphic designer and from my expertise, your senior picture bio shot looks incredibly cheesy. But of course that's just my humble opinion.
Oh and PS: Could you GET any more depressing with your bio?! Maybe you need to switch to jazz and stop listening to AWK altogether.
>>By Johnny L
lol i love the off again bit... care to note punctuation... no exclaimations (unlike yours) therefore not ranting.
i wouldnt expect you to understand my profile...people like you dont,
i like andrew wk for the general catchyness of the tunes. the lyrics probably suck abit but i love the riffs. And i like andrew wk himself but for some very odd unknown reason.. he just seems like a nice guy thats not up himself through fame.
i give up on you
>>By spookygoth
"And yet, some of these 'punk' and 'indie' kids are still willing to back WK up with a number of ridiculous excuses that they deep-down know are inherently flawed. "It's catchy" is no kind of argument. Every pop song you've ever truly hated is catchy. "It's ironic" is wack, too, since there's exactly zero irony to be had on any of I Get Wet or in WK's motivational interviews." -Ryan Schreiber, July 8th, 2002
Finally, after four messages you say something about AWK.
And look at what you said: "the lyrics probably suck abit". You realize that making up the lyrics and singing them is his only job, right? He's the front-man, not the band. Other people make up the music that he sings to.
"He seems like a nice guy"?! Where did you get THAT from? His lyrics? You must have, because you said that you don't read any reviews.
Oh yes, I understand your bio all too well. There are hundreds of others on Flork that are so scorned by the emptiness of life. Your not new. So depressed, so woeful. So lemming-esque.
So full circle in the discussion: He does suck.
>>By Johnny L
the stuff written on spookygoths profile makes a lot of sense, and unfortunately thats what the world is like, why are you giving her such a hard time?
>>By scarletnikki
i actually meant his lyrics sucked because they were basic... but did i say anything about his singing them? no i didnt because i actually like his voice. Dont jump to conclusions because its what you want to hear.
And if you have never read a review that said something good about AWK then you should maybe read more than a couple and see what other people have good to say about him. Or better yet stop reading them full stop and find a better use of your time, because it abviously seems to be doing you no god reading them. Besides that i didnt think there was anybody dumb enough to believe everything they read in them reviews, my mistake.
>>By spookygoth
alas, where has johnny gone?
>>By scarletnikki
aww can you not handle two people criticizing you? I told you you was behaving like a child, you didnt mind having ago when it was just me but now someone else has joined the que for your blood you dont want to play anymore... typical bully attitude, ive come across plently like you, your all the same, did you think your smart arse digs were something special that no one else had ever thought of? get real, ive heard the same shit time and time again only normally its from 15 year old muppets who dont know any better!
Needless to say i expected you to suddenly disappear from discussion the minute someone else got involved, bullies dont like a challenge.
>>By spookygoth
im still waiting for him to come back!!!!!!
>>By scarletnikki
i know me too, guess he he cant take the shit he gives out! What a surprise...
come on johnny im only 19 that must make me such an easy target for you... or have you found some poor kiddy you can steal candy from?
>>By spookygoth
maybe he's still trying to meet designers from around the world!!!
>>By scarletnikki
with that attitude i doubt hes having much luck... hes probably pissing them off as much as he is everybody else.
I can see it now "hey im looking to meet other designers from around the world, but everybody elses ideas suck but mine".
