(Asked and Answered) I'm trying to remember a song a vaguely remember listing to in the late 2000's I think. The dude has a really mono tone voice and he's just kinda talking.. I'm pretty sure the chorus says something about a fountain?? Sorry the song is on the tip of my tounge I just can't remember the words enough to find it.
Good suggestion! but as far as I remember. his voice I wouldn't even really catagorize as singing like he is just talking
Sounds to me like Pepper, by Butthole Surfers. But it’s ‘mountain’ and not ‘fountain’
You're my fucking hero
Naah, dude. Just another passenger. Happy to help.
Well take my gold and keepa ridin ' Thanks you!
Here's the real question...
Were they surfing on buttholes or were they surfers that were buttholes?
Losing My Edge by LCD Soundsystem???
It was Pepper by but hole surfers, lol but I just listened to that and it definitely fits the description!
U2 - Numb?
Wellnyou could expand that discussion. Before they were the butthole surgers they had another band name.
I never even thought to question this, I thought they surfed on buttholes.
They were all in love with dying, they were drinking from a fountain that is pouring like an avalanche, coming down the mountain
Oh haha you DID figured it out but I stick my word out lol
Surely U2 is never going to be an answer if someone is asking for a song
since it's already been answered, I will just pop in to agree that it is indeed a strange song
though the stranger thing in that instance was having a song played on the radio and MTV by a band called THE BUTTHOLE SURFERS
Weird that you requested this, I heard that song for the first time in years yesterday lmao

What a great band. They're as much a part of Texas as oil.

Oh, and son... When you see your mother.... Tell her I said..... SATAN!
Pepper is from 1996. I had the tape of Electric Larry Land when I was 12. In 8th or 9th grade, I think.
Ponch from CHIPS (Erik Estrada) is in the video.
On September 2, 2010, Hesta Prynn and Shawn Crahan of Slipknot released a cover of "Pepper" as a 7-inch vinyl single.The B-side of the single is the previously unreleased track "Seven Sisters"

I hadn't ever heard this before, but it turned out I have heard a small snippet of it; Todd in the Shadows used this cover for the outro to his "One Hit Wonderland" video about the Surfers
I DON’T MIND THE SUN SOMETIMES!!!!
Ohhhh… I always thought it was “they were all in love with Diane” ha ha. Always thought she just be pretty hot 😆
[despite being answered] If you're up for another song that fits that description from the late 90a you could do worse than this. https://youtu.be/8B0ztHiREUs
This song came out in 1996. It was # 1 on the US Modern Rock charts. You couldn't escape this song in the summer of 1996.
I appreciate it!
I'll check it out thanks for the suggestion
That song is fucking hilarious, it's one of their best
The Todd in the Shadows video in question:
Almost lol, but Texans are very inspired by our own alternative rock scene, I think. Butthole Surfers, Pantera, Mars Volta are all really influential groups. Toadies.
Ahh nice I had no clue when it came out just when I heard it
Yep pepper. Still like this song
There is something very unique about Texan music. Those cats you mentioned, Townes van Zandt, Roy Orbison, The Geto Boys, DRI, countless weird punk bands, plus all of the early blues/country/folk artists who probably fostered newer artists sense of adventure
Another Mikey took a knife while arguing in traffic,

Fun fact, they hate what this song did to them.
Wasn’t enough juice to break them fully in to the mainstream, but just enough to make them “uncool” to their long time fans.
