View Full Version : Good Charlotte
Rickenbacker 06-25-2003, 07:23 PM I know nothing about these new guys except that the "real" punk rockers can't stand em. But a few days ago, I actually heard them for the 1st time & Man, I gotta admit- I liked what I heard. Caught a song on the radio called "Boys & Girls". No, I don't think they'll change rock music or stick around for more than another 5 years, but this one song was catchy. I was told by a punk/metal-loving friend that these kids had the nerve to say they were the next Sex Pistols. Such an outrageous statement couldn't've been serious. Probably said for the sake of getting attention. (ala Oasis- "We're the next Beatles")
Anyway, based on this one song, I like em. Good power pop. I have a soft spot for this maligned genre because of guys like Cheap Trick, Sweet etc. I even heard a hint of Beatles influence in the bassline. I just *may* end up getting this cd...maybe. :)
JDS84 06-25-2003, 09:33 PM I like Good Charlotte. This CD is great.
Mr. Stefani 06-25-2003, 09:38 PM I like a few of their songs(Boys and Girls not being one of them).
Hollow 06-25-2003, 10:48 PM i dont like their music but benji is hot
Rhiannon 06-25-2003, 11:02 PM I like their CD The Young and the Hopeless
Kay Scarpetta 06-26-2003, 04:49 PM I'm a die-hard Good Charlotte fan, both of their CD's are awesome, but they are not Punk. Far from it. If anything, they are like a sappy-Punk-Pop. They aren't the Sex Pistols, nor are they The Clash, but I still like 'em :D
Brandon 06-26-2003, 05:00 PM I hate them! they suck! and they have annoying lisps! so i can't even watch that 1 thing they host cuz they're so annoying! and there songs are stupid.
~*Hannah_Lee*~ 06-27-2003, 02:25 AM I'm not a huge fan, but I do like their song "The Young and the Hopeless." It's a good song...but they are not punk. I'm gonna agree with Karly, they are" sappy-Punk-Pop."
¤I Love Clay Aiken¤ 06-27-2003, 10:17 AM I dont really have an opinion about them. Their songs arent that bad, but theyre not something I would download. I tolerate them but think Joel is such a hottie! IMO theyre the new boyband for 2003. 2000-2001 was NSYNC & BSB, and now the boybands/groups have turned into the punk pop. The only difference to me about the boybands from the boygroups is that they play instruments and dress more on the "edge"- but the music is all the same. Its like that whole Avril thing- shes pop too IMO even though her music style is a bit different. Shes the Britney Spears for 2003.
AllIWantIsYourClutch 06-27-2003, 02:06 PM I love Good Charlotte. Even though half the songs on The Young and the Hopeless annoy me...
fr00ti 06-27-2003, 02:13 PM Ive only heard them a few times, but I dont really care for that type of music. So I have nothing against them.

well, I am not wild over GC, but unlike Hilary Duff, at least I know adults who are aware of their works who aren't parents of 7-12 year old girls.
Hollow 10-18-2003, 05:36 PM Their music sucks ass except for girls and boys. benjis hot though. but they must be a bunch of ****ing poseurs if they say theyre the next sex pistols.. well the sex pistols suck too but theyre punk and gc is pop-punk. and is it just me or did they copy nirvanas smells like teen spirit video with the cheerleaders?
IownTheDivision69 10-19-2003, 02:02 PM "hold on", "bloody valentine" and "wondering" are the BEST songs :)

heeeeeeeey WATCH IT :p
But anyway, yeah I'm still a fan, not a die-hard fan anymore, but I still like them. Paul and Billy are the best... they aren't poseurs. They're just off in their own little world. Benji and Joel kinda annoy me after a while.
ABlairican Pie 10-19-2003, 04:12 PM Good Charlotte will coming to Key Arena in Seattle next month.
Kristina 10-20-2003, 05:39 PM ugh they suck! I hate their phony repetitive pop-punk garbage, they think they are so hardcore but personally I don't think they have a punk look going on, more like clown. Apparently they think having "punk" music makes them superior to the world :lol: I think all punk music sucks, but obviously they are not punk. Not in the least!
AllIWantIsYourClutch 10-20-2003, 05:55 PM Okay my opinions have changed. I don't hate them, but I don't love them either. They get on my nerves. Benji and Joel are the most annoying people...oh my god. And a lot of their songs are extremely stupid and have no point.

I agree 100% they suck! They say there "punk" but there so pop. They are posers.
JoelsEvilQueen4L 10-25-2003, 08:11 PM Good Charlotte kicks some @$$!!!!
If you think that their songs are stupid and annoying then you are saying that you think they're lives are stupid and annoying and because of their lisps..its not a lisp its a friggen accent!..obviously you have never been in the south!! because almost everyone there talks like that!!...
and also..I dont think that they are music "wannabees" obviously if they can have sold out concerts..they arnt wannabees!!!!!!!!!!
Actually I dont really care whatever you wanna think..dissing Good Charlotte like that!..I could care less because I love them and nothing that anybody says about them that disses them could make me change my mind about them..and also I think that they will be around for longer then 5 years! and the arnt "Sappy-Punk-Pop" They arnt totally punk but they are VERY close to it! and for the sappy I disagree!...
So all of you that say that Good Charlotte sucks and that the people that like them shouldnt like them I have seven words to say to you!
"Shut your mouth because you suck too!"
:yourock:
Good Charlotte ROCKS!

and also..I think that they are "wannabees" they are wannabees!!!!!!!!!!
Actually I dont really care whatever you wanna think..dissing Good Charlotte cause I like that!!..I could care less about them! because I hate them and nothing that anybody says about them that disses them could make me change my mind about them they'll always suck!..and also I think that they won't be around for longer then 5 years! and the are so "Sappy-Punk-Pop" They arnt punk at all! but they are VERY far to it! and for the sappy I disagree!...

Changing people's posts isn't very nice, not to mention very mature...
Rickenbacker 10-26-2003, 07:41 PM Man, it's weird to see this thread get dragged back up. I did it ages ago.
Look, I know lotsa people hate em & whatnot. They won't be around forever & they're not even close to the bands I mentioned in the original post, but they're catchy. For someone who tries to listen to a lot of music, I do hear an old school influence in their sound.

Ok, I do admit it was a little mean. Just because someone dissagrees with me. Sorry.

That song annoys me to no end.
But really, c'mon now. If you can't respect other people's opinions on a band, JoelsEvilQueen4L, then we are in no way gonna respect yours.
:rolleyes:

:yourock:
Good Charlotte ROCKS! I understand that the songs are about their lives, but they're sooooooooo repetitive and a lot of em are just plain stupid.
No one cares about lisps.
Their concerts might be sold out because they go on tour with decent bands. *hacks* Or the little teeny bopper girls who say "LyKe OHMIGAWD BeNJiiiiiiii HaVe My BaBiEzZZzzzz" buy all the tickets.
We're not here to change your mind. We're stating our opinions.
They are not close to punk.
And I do not suck. So shut your mouth.

Do people really type like that? LOL
Czas na Zywiec 10-29-2003, 09:54 PM God, I can't stand Benji and Joel. Whenever I'm up late and flip through the channels, they're always hosting some video countdown on MTV. I like the countdown but I haaaate the part where they comment on the videos, then they think they say something funny and become all quiet like they're expecting people to laugh.
There's no worse feeling of pain in the world then watching the "twins". They're the male MK&A, only grundgier.
DianeChambers87 10-29-2003, 09:59 PM My only problem with Good Charlotte is that they are completely commercialized. It's not even FOR the music anymore, it's corporations making money off of Mtv videos and shows. I'm sorry but I just get turned off when I see that the band did not write at least 2 of their songs. I mean they aren't outstanding singers, or musicians...I guess I looked for some sort of poetry or dare I say meaning to their music and found nothing.
It's all just a big scam to get you to buy their things.
