So I recently found out that one of my favorite bands changed their name. They used to be Starting Tuesday and now they are The War. I don't really know why they changed their name, but I'm sure there's a story behind it.
I'm not sure which I like better. They didn't change their style too much. They remade one of their songs Satisfied and I definitely like the original version better.
Check them out. If you click on Starting Tuesday you'll go to their website and you can click on Music to hear clips of their songs, or I could let you borrow their CD. If you click The War you'll go to their myspace page where you can listen to their whole CD (only 5 songs).
They're both favorites.
My favorite song of theirs is also the first song I heard by them in Jamaica from someone from Maryland , and the band is from/in South Carolina. Go figure. The song is Armies and Nations:
We stand on top of the world
As if we're all gods casting lots for the nations
The stage is laden in red, the blood of our sons
Look what we've made of creation
Let it all fall down, let it all cave in
It's not till we're broken that we can begin
Let yourself go, let your fears show
It's not till we're open that love can come in
We stand on top of the world
And look at ourselves as if we're something to worship
We may be covered in gold
And shine like the sun
But soon enough we'll be naked
Let it all fall down, let it all cave in
It's not till we're broken that we can begin
Let yourself go, let your fears show
It's not till we're open that love can come in
What is salvation
Without armies and nations?
What is creation
Without armies and nations?
Tell me what is salvation
Without armies and nations?
And tell me what is creation
Without armies and nations?
Let it all fall down, let it all cave in
It's not till we're broken that we can begin
Let yourself go, let your fears show
It's not till we're open that love can come in
