re: Ben Burnley speaks about gaming and controlling

Rob — Sun, 18 Dec 2011 23:04:27 GMT

Ben, ive looked up to you for most of what i remember of my life. you were my role model in life. i basically worshiped you lol. i wanted to grow up to be like you, when i first heard you guys started as a cover band i begged for a guitar for my birthday and started doing all kinds of covers of your songs.... back then though that seemed easy. now.. life sucks... and even when i drink, smoke, party, write songs, play guitar... i know i fail.. ive failed pretty hard my whole life now that i look at it. i tried to be me but i didn't know who me was. still don't... tried to love and.. well it just never works for me, i loved her but i know its not meant to be... epically failed school, and for some reason thought it would be easier to do what you do... now i understand all of your songs and seeing what your going through now...its scary seeing your role model go through this. and now im grown up and living. i dont know if you drank the pain away or made music to help separate your mind from this fucked reality... or what you did to get thru with life. idk why im posting this. you probably never read these things but for some reason i got this deep feeling i should. and i just have one question... dont know why im asking you on this website of all. but what do i do? to be honest... im scared shitless of whats going to become of my life... spent so much of it trying to be like you... didnt think i would fail but i did... so only thing i can think of is.. well to ask the one i looked up too all this time... its not your fault i looked up too you. i just liked the way u guys sounded and how awesome you were for playing all the same games that i like to play, how all of your songs and most covers inspired me... how easy and fun at the time i thought you made life seem.. now i know that your life wasn't easy either, still isn't from what i hear... my life is my own fault and now i know im just a screwup who doesn't know what to do, where to go, why im still alive, and cant find anyone that has the answer. for some dumb reason here i type this hopeing for a answer that i know im not going to find. but for some reason i got a really deep feeling i should, sorry everyone for the huge comment.

From your failing fan,

Rob S.

I am so glad he sat down with you, Frank. I have been to so many Saliva shows I have lost count. Josey Scott has come a long long way! I can appreciate how difficult that is in this crazy music industry.

re: Ben Burnley speaks about gaming and controlling

mandy graham — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 00:31:28 GMT

side note..how does ben burnley not remember the words to "water"? thats one of thee best songs he has wrote. i can sing that song word for word. in fact on my earlier comment when breaking benjamin played the staircase in 2002 they sounded amazing on that song. i was in high school when nirvana came out..old BB is heavy with a nirvana vibe to their stuff..he has no idea how stellar their older stuff is..for me the songs on "saturate" and "we are not alone" i connect more to..both albums are well crafted..in fact in opinion "saturate" is just as good as nirvanas "nevermind"

re: John L. Cooper speaks about the fight to get Howard Benson to produce

Kermit Singer — Sat, 11 Jun 2011 10:43:51 GMT

Two years ago my wife had a brain aneurysm burst and has been in a persistent vegetative state. One night I dreamed she was healed. The next day I listened to Don't Wake Me for the first time and bawled like a baby. I still cry every time I hear it. I can honestly say this is the most powerful, emotionally charged song I've heard in my 59 years on this earth!

Nastassia David Holmes — Mon, 18 Apr 2011 14:54:42 GMT

I would say that this interview speaks about the human condition, and the reality of our humanity. i do agree on what steven wilson talks about, but then again, he can believe that our life could be better if we didn't have our conventional things in life. The reality, we have lost thes things and must look forward. i think steven can teach us stuff but it's up to us to figure it out.
