Bad Astronaut - Linoleum

[@JPSoler]

When I was 14 years old and a Freshman in HS, I had a project for my history class, and was at the library. I went to checkout a book about John Kennedy, and in that book was a burnt CD labeled simply "Bad Astronaut" and I took that CD home and popped into my stereo. This song was on it, and I loved NOFX, and I loved this version. That was one of my favorite CD's I had for the duration of my HS career. My senior year, I took that same CD and went to the library, and I inserted it into a book about Nikola Tesla. I did the same with a handful of other CD's for artists I listened to at the time. Music is meant to be shared, and I loved discovering this band the way I did and I want to pass on that experience.

[@ChainsGoldMask]

He didn't try to make it a NOFX cover, but rather a Bad Astronaut interpretation. And in that, they were successful.

[@dwaynebarnes2639]

The beauty of music, at its finest

[@1401chan]

Joey is amazing!!! My inspiration for 20yrs and still counting! ! !

[@briancasler1612]

His cover of violins is awesome ......... these punk song really bring me bact to the late 80 early 90s... Its 2018 and sometimes i catch a glimps of that16 year old with a red fishtailed mohawk his best go to hell grin...... and tickets for the show in his pocket..... I really miss that kid ...................

[@BobaBassTabs]

Feel the same here in Lyon ...

[@SeanKanary]

What do you mean his cover of Violins?

[@Fox_torn]

best cover of Linoleum ever!

[@danybotravez]

uno de los mejores temas cantado por una de las mejores voces.

[@dongonzulman6478]

I appreciate that Joey went with the lyrics from NOFX live shows

[@lawrence9012]

It’s what he wanted to write but he changed the lyrics in studio on the spot, the dog was to be named dog but changed to bob in the last minute

[@kstutz81]

Lagwagon is my jam. Friend just turned me onto these dudes. Love this version! Bought a couple of their albums immediately:-)

[@eddycore84]

I never imagined this song played like that. it's AWESOME!

[@houshitsu]

かっこよすぎる！！！！

[@GreenRaph06]

A great cover Cape's voice is awesome

[@saicopunk]

me gusta esta version :)

[@CumulusSky]

I'm just happy I can hear different versions of Linoleum

[@u2besmurf]

Between Streetlight Manifesto's cover, the original and this cover, all very different, all very well done.

[@negolegal]

awasome... this is the best music ever.. bad astronaut just made this more awesome! thats me inside your head

[@vassman1]

I like listening to the shai hulud version, immediately followed by this.

[@NA-rs6wz]

and I was just about to do that 💪👏

[@billyalarie2841]

i didit the opposite way

[@rsandor]

it's been said. but Cape is very talented. i'm just glad he's still makin music. the covers are good as well as the Lagwagon accoustic re-releases. keep it up brashua

[@nathanmciver6496]

Wow! This is quality!!!!! I also like the other vershion with the cover! Lol, slowed or speed up and odd variation here seems to be a wonderful experience! Personaly I like this vershion because its relaxing

[@nicolabrami8783]

Shit, this is the sound of my teen years getting farther and farther away

[@skifullydone8165]

We are still punks at heart!

[@GunjerSpinners]

It's more of an ode than a cover. I was about 13 when I listened to Punk in Drublic. Left them after The Decline but always kept an eye on the caper and his projects...If you come from there like so many do, shattered around the world, you would apreciate this wether you liked it or not.

[@ghostjs]

holy crap. i never expected this to sound like that. nice!!!!

[@ordinary7sasha]

So awesome! Def one of my fave song. And now being sung by one of my fave singer! JJOOOOEYY CAAAPE!

[@Reido]

I love Joey Cape. I must say, it was awesome being able to finally see Bad Astronaut last year.

[@John-ju9dt]

That banjo is such a nice touch

[@ibaneziceman2007]

I like this. I like hearing what certain songs would sound like if another band wrote them.

[@Janine80]

Wow great cover!!

[@DoYouFeelBetterNow]

best cover ever, so heartfelt...Joey rules

[@iplaytennis7]

I don't know that one is necessarily better than the other...I like them both: they're different. Depends on my mood which one I listen to.

[@Lannd84]

There are a lot of versions of this song, but hands down this is one is the best one after the original.

[@jpunk39]

THEY ARE BACK Untethered Coming This November YAAAY!!!!!

[@danframpt0n]

unreal cover

[@Liebjuice]

this is a goooood cover. i havent been able where to find a download tho. Streetlight Manifesto's version is also pretty good

[@EmilSvendsen]

i love this cover

[@reedabook99]

This is one of the best covers I've ever heard. Anyone know where I can download it?

[@KILLAKRLL]

joey cape is one of my heros good cover

[@lawrence9012]

This is my new favorite thing ever

[@Phantom_Mountain_Art]

This is an awesome cover.

[@maddogtbutcher]

Epic cover!

[@rodrihpunk]

Great cover!

[@jayalamarock]

fantastic cover

[@wide_awake]

Incredible..as with anything Joey Cape touches.

[@daniel-ek9kf]

Just when you're sad that you think you won't hear any new Bad Astronaut then you find some thing like this =)

[@Overdrivenpower]

i am a HUGE streetlight fan (been listening to kalnoky since he was in catch 22), but i have to say that i like this cover of Linoleum more than streetlight's, just because this band approached the song in a more creative way, making it sound like their own. nothing will ever beat NOFX's original version

[@fallvisionstudios]

wauuuuuuuuu que emocion yo creci escuchando esto y canta por Joey Cape uff brutal

[@deaguirre]

most awesome. bad astronaut is my favorite band. nevertheless. rest in peace , derrick. - friends in thoughts!

[@NibiruMagick2012]

Possesions never meant anything to me I'm not crazy Well that's not true I've got a bed And A guitar And a dog named Bob who pisses on my floor That's right I've got a floor So what? So What? So What? I've got pockets full of lint and holes Where everything important to me Just seems to fall right down my leg And onto the floor

[@kth5077]

... It's "..a dog named dog", not Bob

[@kenhomhotwok]

It's a reference to GBH, the band. NOFX also use this line live.

[@overthhhrow]

the best part of this songs starts at 00:00 and it ends at 2:49 Superb!

[@NOFXRamon]

great cover

[@lubberink]

I was listening to all those crappy metal covers of this song, but this is the first cover i hear that is quite good.

[@anthonyp3450]

So good.

[@leandromarzz]

awesome

[@billyalarie2841]

holy shit this is incredible

[@barrycrawford1133]

Great song! Smack Da Beat!

[@Craddockabilly]

so good.. oh my

[@NibiruMagick2012]

My closest friend, linoleum...linoleum Supports my head, gives me something to believe That's me on the beachside combing the sand Metal meter in my hand Sportin' a pocket full of change That's me in the street with a violin under my chin Playing with a grin Singin' jibberish Thats me on the back of the bus Thats me in the cell Thats me inside your head Thats me inside your head

[@sciscia79]

so nice!

[@nmank34]

Thanks for uploading this video!! Do you know from what record it belogs? Are there any other great covers like this one?

[@PrankCallFan845]

Everything important to me just falls right down my leg.

[@imnotzeusimnotzeus]

[@ZoojerZ]

You, my good sir, are correct.

[@LiberationArmyGer]

@overthhhrow nono 2:12 to 2:29 the rythm change is sooo nice

[@faizalsmolik]

Cool slow songs !!

[@rabonour]

@shoydis What does that even mean? Yes, Bad Astronaut and SLM are different kinds of bands. That doesn't mean I can't enjoy one version of this song more than the other.

[@AnnihalationonaStick]

Gives me somethin to believe.

[@Its_Syxx]

This is fucking amazing.

[@dlxmgr]

Can I buy a cd with this song somewhere?

foda pra caralho!

[@rociomilagros3261]

lo maximo!

[@hayatotheninja]

Joey emailed me and said fat owns the recording and would eventually put it on a comp, but that was about a year ago, so I dunno now.

[@parisemichel6484]

the best song in the world

[@cannabiscze]

Better than original NOFX (for me)

[@greenday1991ful]

[@lespulley6634]

Yes

[@andrewscales3400]

[@chefsipoet2498]

Great minded

[@Fistfury42]

[@piebarnett]

No, Derrick Plourde the drummer. Joey Cape said without derrick there could be no Bad Astronaut

[@Markbelka]

Joey Cape?

GREAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT

[@edgaralvarez3968]

🔥

[@GabeJax]

Nice

[@MormonJew]

forced me to go straight to the nofx version. i love BA and never heard this track though.

[@letsgobluengold1027]

"Sporting a pocket full of shit" and "Playing with a grin, singing G.B.H." are the lyrics Fat Mike himself uses when performing this song live most times, to all of you people bitching that Joey Cape fucked the lyrics up. Reference "I Heard They Suck Live" if you need further evidence. Thank you.

[@KILLFIGHTA]

is that the bad-ass thing that makes it sound like it's sliding through a pipe?!

[@shoydis]

@AkiraMusic Apparently someone doesn't understand the difference between Bad Astronaut, and a ska band.

[@overthhhrow]

so what does GBH mean?? i´m from spain and i don´t know what that mens...
