"you give love a bad name" - atreyu
i must say i just bought the new atreyu cd a couple days ago and believe their cover of this song is simply amazing. i hate bon jovi except for the cool drum noise before the chorus of its my life….
i won't bore you with my well written review of the cd because none of you care but check out the fucking song.
finally something has replaced somebody told me by the killers….it's not confidential i like that song, does this mean i have potential?..hehehee

That song from Jet is now in every commercial and it's on 121% of all radio stations.
Dave Barry said several years ago that when a guitar is thrown off a cliff it plays "Gloria" as it bounces off the rocks ("'Gloria' is so easy to play…"). Now it plays Jet.
The neighborhood mockingbird? Sings Jet.
The Weatherbug alert sound is now Jet.
The 11 O'clock news theme is now Jet.
….. Jet ….. Jet …… Jet …..

hey flawd, you know age of ruin has been covering that song at their shows long before atreyu. I don't think its a coincidence either, since they completely rip off "for the soul of the savior" by darkest hour (another local band) on the new album also.

Haha. A friend asked me a couple of months ago what shows I have been to (he's not a show goer) and I listed some, one being Jet. He said, "Jet??? Wow!" I gave him a quizzical look, as to why he was so excited for me. He said, "Well, they have a song on a commercial." It brought to my attention the affect of marketing among the masses. And explains the crowd at the concert.

I'm going next weekend to NYC to see Sloan open for Jet…it will be interesting to see both the crowd and how long I hold out. I got the album from a friend, since I'm going, but still haven't listened to it. Whenever I start, I switch to AC/DC…. ;)

Most recently, it was Killing Joke's "Europe." Before that it was Moose's "I Wanted To See You To See If I Wanted You."
Both of these songs just wouldn't leave my head! For the first day or so it was OK but then it became seemingly unbearable. :)

I will agree that as soon as i saw this topic , i thought of JET.
look, when we got this advance CD at my work last year. WELL before it was on any radio station or anything like that. I heard this song and thought…."this sounds like the theme song to some bad TV show" like i thought it was going to be the theme to the 21st century version of 21 Jumpstreet.
whatever, this song is played more often than that Nelly song was 2 years ago.
its a crappy song. a crappy band. and they just comfirm that Austrailia and New Zealand (whichever one they are from) dont put out very many good bands. I cant think of one (INXS and Midnight Oil are NOT good bands and neither are the Datsuns or Silverchair).
the weatherbug theme song is Jet? how odd.

From what I've heard of it, I would agree it's the weakest of the three. But they are still a great live band.

>>> Midnight Oil was one of the best live bands EVER!…..and Silverchair are one of the worse bands EVER….another couple bands from Australia who were great live were Hunters & Collectors and of course, The Celibate Rifles….

Yes, Midnight Oil - definitely one of the best live bands, that is for sure! Both times I saw them (1990) and then (when was it? - one of their last shows at the 9:30 Club - I am thinking 2001/2002) it was fantastic!
More bands from Australia (that I've not yet seen listed in this thread) - The Go-Betweens, Real Life and Ikon.
P.S. And I love INXS - so there. ;)
