MarioTV : Episode 1: American Head Charge

Welcome to the first episode of MarioTV.

Straight from his myspace source:

Favorite music: Heavy metal. I.E. Mudvayne, Pantera, American Headcharge, Static X, Tool, Alice In Chains, Slipknot, Rammstein, OLD Metallica, Motorhead, NIN.. etc...I won't change so don't try, but I don't force it on anyone. If you like shitty music, that is your business. Also, music should be able to be played loud enough that it hurts or you feel it.

There's a lot of music out there Mario enjoyed, and this is going to be the first of the videos I'm going to post in his memory. Several others will be coming soon, but there's just something about this one that catches my eye. If you should choose to watch it, take a close look at the hand gesture the lead singer makes between the 3:34 and 3:36 mark (it means something). Where possible lyrics will be listed right below the video.

American Head Charge : Just So You Know




The surface is so cold and worthless
All the things that I have still come from there
So paint the windows in front of my face
When you know damn well there's no one behind them

I wish your body was not so warm to me
I wish your body was not so warm to me
I wish your body was not so warm to me
Just so you know

And all it was was something beautiful
When tides and dreams don't seem so tall at all
And all it was was something beautiful
When tides and dreams don't seem so tall at all

It's me against the world, still I'm losing ground
And I'd kill to taste what it must be like
Cause it's every one of my empty parts
That you fill, now

I wish your body was not so warm to me
I wish your body was not so warm to me
I wish your body was not so warm to me
Just so you know

And all it was was something beautiful
When tides and dreams don't seem so tall at all
And all it was was something beautiful
When tides and dreams don't seem so tall at all

Pause silence
Another moment dropped off
Left behind and
Hanging still

You won't see me
You won't see me
You won't see me
You won't see me

I can't see you
I can't see you
I can't see you
I can't see you

And all it was was something
And all it was was something beautiful
When tides and dreams don't seem so tall at all
And all it was was something beautiful
When tides and dreams don't seem so tall at all


In memory of Mario Frassetto.

i don't think i want to know what the meaning is behind the lead singer's hand gesture...

ignorance can be bliss...especially when i'm at work.
