The Worlds Hottest Bands
 
Our Lady Peace Rocks
 
Here's some info of the band. Our Lady Peace
formed in 1994 when Mike Turner placed an ad
in "NOW" magazine looking for new band members.
Raine Maida responded to the ad. Raine was friends
with Duncan Coutts at the time, but Duncan didn't
want to join the band right away, because he
wanted to finish school. Our Lady Peace got there
name from a poem by Mark Van Doren.

After the realease of their first album " Naveed"
in 1994, Chris decided to take a different path
and left the band. That's when they decided to let
Duncan into the band for the recording of there
next album " Clumsy" which was released in 1997.


Raine Maida

Raine Maida is the lead singer of the band. He
writes many of their songs with Mike Turner. Raine
studied criminology at the University of Toronto
before becoming the lead singer of Our Lady Peace.
Raine is a passionate song writer who's not afraid
to express himself. Raine's real name is Michael
Raine Maida and he born on April 18, 1970.

Jeremy Taggart

Jeremy is the youngest member of the band but is
certainly a great drummer. Many people critized him
on the band's freshman record," Naveed", but I
believe them to be wrong. Anyway there is nothing
to be said about him on "Clumsy" or "Naveed" except
awesome. I love those awesome rolls. Jeremy was born
on April 21, 1976.

Duncan Coutts

Duncan didn't join the band until 1995 but he has made
himself right at home. He is a great bass player
but he can also play the keyboard as you know in
Automatic Flowers. Check out Duncan's bass in Car
Crash, it's great. Duncan was born on February 4.

Mike Turner

Mike Turner is an awesome Guitarist. He helps Raine
co-write alot of songs and he writes virtually
all of the music.Before playing with Our Lady
Peace, he used to work in a machine shop. He grew
up in England before moving to canada. Mike is
a cool down to earth guy along with all the other
members of the group. Mike was born on June 5.



Here are the Lyrics to their cd Clumsy


Superman's Dead

Do you worry that your not liked
How long till you break
You're happy cause you smile
But how long till you fake
An ordinary boy an ordinary name
But ordinary's just not good enough today

Alone I'm thinking , why is superman dead
Is it in my head, we'll just laugh instead
You worry about the weather
And whether or not you should hate

Are you worried about your faith
Kneel down and obey
You're happy your in love
You need someone to hate
An ordinary girl an ordinary waist
But ordinary's just not good enough today
Doesn't anybody ever know that the world's a subway


Automatic Flowers

And Sara think she's died once before
She's crazy
A pop up book of flower from grade four
Are driving her insane
No one knows why she'd sad tonight
No one can help her find

Crying, she couldn't afford the view
Crying these automatic flowers won't do

Another brick
Another window frames the confusion
Her graden blooms but Sara can't see straight
She drinking herself blind


Carnival

You know you not a strong man
And your just about to cry
Hang on it's alright

You worry about the future
The sign said " Yoga class for cats"
It's okay
It's not fun

Your frustrated by the cracks
In the pavement
And every mother's back...
Once again the carnival closed down
But if this world ever turns around

The dynamite is waiting
They bankrupted the sky
It's okay
It's okay
It's not fun

You're frustrated by the cracks
In the pavement
And every mother's back...
Once again the carnival closed down
But if this world ever turns around
You'll be there when everybody sane


Big Dumb Rocket

I've never seen your breath before
But I'm disgusted by the thought of
Waiting anymore
If I look up in your eyes
Will you notice me or notice it or
Fade into this accident

I don't want to find
The big dumb rocket on your mind
It's mostly you and mostly me
And a tired gun that's not empty

I've never been this sad before
But I'm disgusted by my fingertips
And what they've done
If I look up to your eyes
If it must be true you must believe
I've never held such violent things
I've never talked to god before tonight
But I'm disgusted by...


4 am

I walked around my good intentions
And found that there where none
I blame my father for the wasted years
We hardly talked
I never thought I would forget this hate
Then a phone call made me realize I'm wrong

If I don't make it know that
I've love you all along
Just like sunny days when
We ignore because
We're all dumb and jaded
And I hope to god I figure out
What's wrong

I walked around my room
Not thinking
Just sinking in this box

the Blame myself for being too much
Like somebody else
I never thought I would just
Bend this way


Shaking


So you fucked this up again
It's time for you to leave
You never had many friends
And you thought this was alright
Your rushing to mediate
You should eat but probably wait
you never thought of yourself

Why are you shaking
Why are you right
When I will be the only one who gives
And lets you in tonight

Walk you could never walk away
From this speedfreak collagen
Caffeinated place
You were always reaching out
Looking for somewhere to go
Nobody needs to find out
Nobody needs to know what you know

So you wonder about you past
When you know that's it's already been
Nothing seems to last
Can it last will it last
Clumsy
Throw away the radio suitcase
That keeps you awake



 
I will be moving my belongings in shortly.
