Maybe its just me but have you ever noticed how artists tend to use each others riffs. Im not in this case talking about rap...For example..Hammer sampled the music from Prince's "When doves cry" in his sorta hit "Pray"....Im referring to rock rip offs...Ive noticed that the intro to Tesla's love song can easily be compared to Creeds 6ft from the edge song..same chords just played different..Even Steve Stevens from Billy Idol mimics the guitar style of Leo Kotke in "Rebel Yell"....A real tricky one is ...and this is for all you Kiss fans out there...Listen to Avril Lavigne's pop hit "Complicated"..then the Kiss classic "I love it loud"..The vocal patterns are the same...the only difference is Gene rocks it..and lil Avy drags it through the mud.........I will say that I do love cover songs...Manowar did an amazing cover of Deep purples Highway Star..Billy Idol has covered Van Halens Jump...and I keep hoping that The Rolling Stones will cover Sheryl Crowes If it makes you happy..only because Mick Jagger can give that song the soul it needs..Anyway.Happy buckets of love my empty page friends list....................Jt White

sleeping beneath the angels all alone
eyes peer up to heaven,wondering when
I'm going home
I've done all I could with this thing
they call a gift
what's left to do when all you do is live

I've seen the dreams of the dead through my eyes
felt the walls of purgatory there in the dead of night
Once had such faith in myself,it could have given me wings to fly
but only to awake with empty hands..time after time



It's a cold and lonely world..but the skies don't look so blue..
there's a place where angels and eagles fly..someday your darkened eyes will take you to..Dream all you can because it's the key to magic doors..
heaven awaits you my friend,even from a broken floor
