Carr Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 I was addicted to GC's first CD and then their second durring soccer season last year, but now I only listen to them if I need a pickmeup. They're real good tho I love [color=red] "Bloody Valentine"[/color] :therock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadClown Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 They were good untill they sold out and started singing stupid songs about shallow and meaningless things..."Girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money!" Or better yet "Lifestyles of the rick and the famouse, they're always complaining..." Hypocrites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artemis Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 I think they're pretty good. I don't own any of their CDs, but I like a few of their songs. I have some friends who are completely obsessed with them. In my opinion, there are definitely worse groups I could be forced to listen to.

Spikey Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 They are not the best bands out there but they are okay. I do like some of there songs but some of them have no meaning at all. They are a pretty good rock group, then again not the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matto Tradagen Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 [color=navy][i] I never really got into them. I find they have very few meaningful songs. As it's already been posted in this thread, i'm not going to give examples. And personaly, I think they are posers. They like to give themselves titles like "punk", and their "style" looks really manufactured. As music terms go, they are no more punk than the Bakstreet Boys. Meh, they're not all that bad. While they have many, many pointless and meaningless songs, they have still produced a few good tracks. I've heard worse..and much, much better. ~Matto[/color][/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VP-Master Posted September 2, 2003 Share Posted September 2, 2003 I liked their song "anthem", but the other songs were downright senseless. They're alright but nothing special. Chris Rock probably said it best @ the VMAs, "Good Charlotte? More like a mediocre Green Day." They're not a bad group but not one of the best the genre has to offer.

Pex Posted September 2, 2003 Share Posted September 2, 2003 I dont know I dont really like them much there just not my style pf music at all im pure rock and roll, like ill listen to metallica or maybe linkin park for an adrenline boost and maybe some incubus, sublime or weezer if i want to chill. I'm really like mostly all forms of rock, but they are girl rock. and they kind of sing wimpy songs...sorry if that offended anyone but i really dont think they are that talented Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zanarkand Abes Posted September 2, 2003 Share Posted September 2, 2003 I love GC, especially their Valentine song. I don't know why I like it soo much, I mean I am not morbid at all, but it is a good song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doukeshi Posted September 2, 2003 Share Posted September 2, 2003 No, I'm not a GC fan at all, in fact I find them quite irritating. One of my friends is obsessed with them and he seems to have converted a few of my other friends in the process. I do think Chris Rock put his finger on it...mediocre Green Day it is. However, having said that some of the songs are quite catchy, even though the voicalist's voice irritates me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/B][/QUOTE] [size=1][color=CC0000]Yes the songs are very catchy. That's why I don't like them, I don't want crap songs stuck in my head all day when I could be humming a much better tune in math class. I don't like them (at all) because they have possibly some of the worst guitar riffs I, personally, have ever heard. I mean, if they're trying to be a punk band, then at least they should try and sound a little more punk than they are. Also, I don't like the way that the singer and the guitarist with the dumb hair (big spikes) dominate all of their music videos. It does sincerely suck. I can sing, play guitar, play bass and play drums better than they all can, seriously. *finishes rant* :)[/size][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yami Asura Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 I like GC. I think their more punk than most bands. On the first album, they're more of a Emo band though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knight cloud Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 its not my favorite group, but i can think of a lot af my friends who are obsessed with them ive heared alote worse than GC though :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biida Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 I admit to liking Good Charlotte (to a certian extent). To [b]me[/b], they qualify as pop-music, and are one of the very few "pop" bands I'll ever listen to. The vocalist annoys me, and the riffs bore me. The songs are catchy though, which isn't always a bad thing. Plus, Riot Girl isn't that bad of a song, and neither is Bloody Valentine. *shrugs* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sharpie Posted September 7, 2003 Share Posted September 7, 2003 I don't like Good Charlotte, at all. I don't like the way they sound or their angsty attitude. But I admit, I did go to the Civic Tour were GC was performing. I just went for Less Than Jake and New Found Glory. After LTJ was done and GC came on, I left the pit (to avoid the girls and little kids trying to mosh to GC) and went up into the stands to talk to LTJ. I talked to them for GC's whole set. It was pretty kick ***. I returned for New Found Glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hansolowannabe Posted September 7, 2003 Share Posted September 7, 2003 If there's one thing that I can't tolerate, it's a bunch of dorks that dress like punks, play music considered punk, and then call themselves punk. I just put them in with Avril and Blink and all the rest. Deal. DKM RULES!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they live hard lives when they were children? Well, what does it matter now!? They get free crap all the time and well, they're rich! I don't like them because of the image they give off.

Guest Magdalena Posted September 8, 2003 Share Posted September 8, 2003 I dislike them very much. I mean their hot, but thats not a reason to like their music. Too made for mainstream, if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagger Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 I liked GC's first album (partly because the band comes from the same area as me, and I knew about them before most other people), but then they went really mainstream. They were never a punk group--borderline pop/punk, and that's stretching it. Their songs make for easy listening, although they aren't exactly interesting or innovative, and I can't stand to listen to more than a few in a row. I love the guitarist's makeup..... but that's just cause I'm weird. GC's second CD, by the way, was terrible. ~Dagger~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naru Posted September 10, 2003 Share Posted September 10, 2003 I like them. My favorite songs by them are Bloody Valentine, Lifestyles of the rich & famous, The Anthem, Young & hopeless, & girls & boys. Bloody Valentine is the best...I'm not obbsessed with them though. ~NaRu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genkai Posted September 10, 2003 Share Posted September 10, 2003 I hate their music.. It's just? uggh. I first heard a GC song about 4 years ago, and everytime they've had a hit since (about twice, though they seem to have actually gotten somewhere this time), I try to like their sound but I can't... I also dislike people who think that their music is punk. It's not. The members of the band dress "punk", but their music is not.... it's pop/punk, a form of punk that is much lighter and more commercialized to what I like to call the "TRL audience"....
