That was kewl. Hey Peggy! hoping that you have learned to stop screaming at your boyfriend. Sometimes, though you stand us up, against the gates of h*ll, we won't back down.
As if this doesn't suck! You mean ya can't even PLAY your bookmarks it's all about Pandora & what Pandora thinks is good for you. Otherwise ya have to go to f**king apple, & buy the :son of a b**ch? So yea, i won't back down either, America sucks & so does Pandora. I am going to cancel my subscript & start picking up on the millions of FREE radio stations available around the world ....
And, by the way, lortiz6182, Johnny Cash sucked too! F**king Drug Addicted Hillbilly!!
I always like this.

This song is an anthem. Your right our society has become sheep, willing to accept all types of injustices. I'm fighting one now. I can do all things through Christ Who strengthens me. Phillipians 4:13 I am going to use this tune as a battle cry. Rev Rob

When I was little I thought he was saying "I want back down" haha.

Great song.
I like the darker version of the song on Barnyard. Even though it is angled a bit more towards young people, i still love the deep, dark sound. Love the song!
His voice reminds me of Molly Ringworm as an actress...ev e r y place has a need for the bizarre.
