Billy Talent - Beach Balls

[@hansolzy]

I haven't heard this in like a decade. Same with all of Pezz stuff. This is so nostalgic jesus..

[@priscilagaro6997]

And now they remastered and released the whole thing. Still awesome.

[@EtherSkunk]

Always loved how this track seems to blend their styles from Billy Talent and Pezz together.

[@Stoicreposts]

2023 still haven’t forgotten this gem

[@LostKefin]

praying that they play this live if they do a 20th anniversary tour

[@marklacika4500]

And 24, 25, 26 etc. We shall meet here yearly, in a glory of this gem haha . Fingers crossed for the Spotify remaster as much as Waatoosh !

My memory lane's now paved, but this still isn't on spotify. Pezz isn't either.

Ich liebe dieses Lied Ich kann aber nicht sagen, dass es mein Lieblingslied von Billy talent ist, da es so viele geile Lieder von ihnen gibt !!!BILLY TALENT!!!

[@nicolasgralewicz4727]

Everyone hating on their newer albums. They changed styles and Dead Silence from a technical point of veiw was probably their best album. All their albums are loved by critics and generate thousands of new fans.

[@davelovesdrums]

Agreed. I actually probably love Dead Silence the best and I've loved them since Billy Talent I. It's less raw but the songs are fantastic and maybe a bit darker? If I had to rank them right now (at least by which albums I listen to the most), it would probably go Dead Silence I II Afraid Of Heights III (this is the only BT album I was a bit disappointed with)

[@JesusRocksTryPrayin]

The bridge makes me feel like crying :D it's so good! I miss being a teenager and even though most bands fuck up after an album or two.. i really liked their first 3. Almost as much as Finch (i cried after i heard finch was dead :( after say hello to sunshine.) I don't cry often but music is more real than life

[@mennims]

At first when I listened to this 3 years ago, before BT became my favorite band, I didn't like this song, it just didn't sound right, and a year later, I stumbled upon it and, BAM!!! Now it is one of my favorites! I can play the entire song, the whole guitar track on guitar, I love it. One of my favorite songs on guitar

[@muffinpurpergurk2960]

same here, but I'm still learning on guitar lol I can almost play prisoner of today.

[@Neverwinding]

"If we break up Don't write a song that would Drag my name through the shit, the mud" and then few years later he drops "The Ex", am I the only one who finds this hiliarious?

[@airhead3333]

its not hilarious. Lots of their songs are about ec girlfriends and just shitty people.

[@Bobbyrambles]

I always find his lyrics hilarious first off, but I think that's the point Neverwinding. Thats his territory. He is the one who writes the songs about the shit people because he's the actual honest one. And very satirical :P

[@Neverwinding]

***** I meant it makes him look like a hypocrite. The songs itself doesn't trash his ex that much, but if you`re a fan and you watch their concerts you should know he trash talks her before every "The Ex" they play live, so I do find it hiliarous, but in the kind of funny way :).

[@Neverwinding]

Bobby Soto I didn't mean't hiliarous in a bad way, I just find it funny :P. Of course he's the artist so he`s entitled to write songs about whatever he wants, if she cheated on him she trully deserves every verse of it anyway :).

Bird in the Basement confirmed.

[@jinnyjapp]

I am surprised that this did not make it onto one of their albums.

[@peel432]

It was on their Try Honesty LP. It sounds kinda "gay" because it's kinda going back to their old ska roots, which was the genre of their old band Pezz. But it also has the idea of their new style, especially in the chorus, whereas the verse is more like the old them. Listen to the song 'Nita' by Pezz. It's still them, but different genre. And it's sooo funny!

[@ThrashinGames]

I never understood why they don't bring this song back for a new album a lot of fans are missing out on this one. Might be the standard tuning..

[@pahaorly]

"Do it again" She said to me. So I nailed my hand to the baseboard floor. Hysterically, Laughing at me, She begged the question and I begged for more. Now I water, The thorn you rammed, Deep into my side watch it fertilize. 'Cause you shoved your finger, Right down my throat, And you made me puke up all of my pride. Pop the beach balls, Burn the photos, C-4 your safe, And you'll never grow old. So get out of dodge, And become a thought, Cause once you’re a thought, hopefully you're forgot. If we break up, Don’t write a song that would, Drag my name through the shit, the mud. 'Cause I’ve seen some solid swimmers who drowned, When you unleashed the dam and cause the flood. But with free choice, There comes freewill. And I’m so happy she decided to leave, 'Cause now I’m alone. The demons come home And now my pen is rolling up it’s sleeve. Pop the beach balls, Burn the photos, C-4 your safe, And you'll never grow old. So get out of dodge, And become a thought, 'Cause once you’re a thought, hopefully you're forgot. Pop the beach balls, Burn the photos, C-4 your safe, And you'll never grow old. So get out of dodge, And become a thought, 'Cause once you’re a thought, hopefully you're forgot. Because my morals have begun to decay, And all my friends have the same thing to say. They say that good times have faded away. They say that their all worried about me. 'Cause I feed birds in the cemetery, And I rake leaves off the grass in my grave. Because my memory lane is now paved. (Nothing wrong) My memory lane is now paved. (There’s nothing wrong) My memory lane is now paved. My memory lane is now paved. (There’s nothing wrong) But now my memory’s back and there’s nothing wrong! There’s nothing wrong. There’s nothing wrong. There’s nothing wrong. There’s nothing wrong. I said there’s nothing wrong! There’s nothing wrong. There’s nothing wrong. There’s nothing wrong.

@whatever13130: nah don't blame yourself for being german, just learn english (it's possible - and i can tell you because i am german too). hm i am not that good and analyzing. this song has three aspects being mentioned. 1) a boy-/girlfriend split up 2)obviously becoming older every day 3)a voice against pop-punk songs, because usually those bands write songs about splitting up all the time and well the rest is just awesome billy talent writing metaphor mingle-mangle (correct me if i am wrong)
