Queens Of The Stone Age - Quick And To The Pointless Lyrics

the stooges sound. shake appeal

Kurt Cobain?

that "yeah yeah yeah" might've been the inspiration for dinosaur pile up's thrash metal cassette cheerleader part.

Damn, this rocks

commercials and rock music don't mix

I don't even know what im doing here

Just learned that several lines are in Dutch. Dass ist kühl

this song makes me want to break into jail

0:00
Me everyday when I wake up

Pena by Captain Beefheart

I've had it as a ringtone for years... I swear it was impossible for me to answer my phone. Best. Ringtone. Ever!

Strong BLACK FLAG vibes :-D

Make me go crAAAAAAAAAAZZZZZZZZZYYYY WHOOOOA
das leben ist hard

A great take on The Stooges' "Shake Appeal" from "Raw Power", one of Josh's favourite
albums "Raw Power". It didn't come as any surprise that he would eventually link up
with the Ig. Both men are brilliant talents.

"Rated R" is a true classic.

What's impressive about this song is that it only took one take to record. They recorded all the instruments and vocals in one go and nailed it first time. God I love this band.

This song is so insane I love it so much

dammit I want this song to be about me!!!! YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!

EVERYBODY EVERYONE LET'S GOOOOO!

I can't stop hitting repeat. i love this song!

This would have also been a good opener to the album.

Prison School in a nutshell.

this song gives me so much energy

I ALWAYS REFER TO THIS AS 'THE PETIFILE SONG'

I didn't even know what I'm doin' here.

"Neighbor" by in the whale. Borrows a lot from it

sounds like stain by nirvana, the guitar anyway.

I Will Bury You i thought i was the only one who heard it haha

I will bury you I swear this is the 3rd time I've seen you in about 2 weeks. I saw you on some video about Catholics or Christians talking about gay marriage and then maybe on a Black Flag song. Your music taste is great.

Ein Walroß
They aren’t even close in tone lol.
I think it sounds closer to the ramones in the guitar.
And some Shonen knife with the clapping and the “yeahs”

Nick Oliveiri sounded like he was getting an orgasm!

a very violent one

the third ring began and the door opened easily. welcome to the craft. am I still slow? sword swingin as people come to mind? because you know, rub it in, the hole thing. get the picture? IM DEAD!!! and more than just a cigarette in the corner of his mouth.

+kelly stone takes courage too by the way. the betrayal. going going off on balance. and im numbering them spread out. I see three times a lady. the light seems to be fading. when the cry of a bird struck her and filled her nostrils with dusty roses. and pierced your memory.

+kelly stone blood running counter point ---naked in your bed and rising above another horizon. aren't you manson? dying for this beauty? out of the corner of his eyes, they hung there like exotic jewelry. but he grows a temper. he looks down at the dirty livin. and enter my atonement. open the conversation now.

+kelly stone and to hole, your a G-- line baby. for the beauty of making a living. I don't waste love.

this is the second song today I cannot like bcuz I don't want to b 667

+TheMaddd9 740

Hairspray Queen ?

more "Stain" that "Hairspray Queen," me thinks

+WiseMan Negative creep, my opinion

Vocals: Hairspray Queen
Guitar: Stain

I've bought this album twice now, but it keeps getting "borrowed" and never reterned :C

I can see why because this album is gorgeous.

this album costed me 20 bucks and 32 cents

That's 20 dollars and 32 cent worth the perfection.

digital purchases exist

Bitch I got it less than a dollar

sounds like system of a down, you know the singing style on the last two albums

I was honestly thinking of MSI.

But like... fused with SOAD for sure.

More like Nirvana I'd say

@Bombtrack913 nah soad

Is this songs a bit pedo or it's just my impression?

+walnuthorse fuck you

+Uso Indevido Dude..sorry, I don't even remember posting that. I apologise.

walnuthorse now I really want to know what you said

incomprius I wanna know too

Uso Indevido Yes, this is a song about a pervert, from his perspective. It does not glorify in any way such behaviors, it is rather a way to tame evil by learning the mind of a criminal. Something like in the movies of David Lynch. Josh said that they recorded song at the first attempt and felt cleansed "as if we escaped from a very, very bad place"

This is the song that instantly made me love this album.

Let's just stay in and fuck. Anyone?

What has saying something as dumb as that here gained you?

 
Now playing on Captain Freezknots Stoner Rock Circus on Freezknotable channel.

Samantha Fisher, I am not one to get into arguments over people who don't like the kind of music I do. But saying that you are glad they don't "produce this kind of drivel anymore," means you haven't heard of Justin Bieber, and if you have...then you must like his music.

het leven is hard, mensen worden bang!

Ik zeg van Ja maar Nee

hahaha damn die had ik er eerder niet in gehoord :P

Glad they don't produce this kind of drivel anymore.

That's exactly what they did. It's called quick and to the pointless for that reason. They wanted to bang out a punk/garage/thrash song for fun.

that was comedy. thanks guys.

Haha they used to be good they're utter bollocks now

This song crushes their latest pop songs like TWYUTD

Villains sucks dick

Godverdomme!!

waarom de Nederlandse comments?

I am Dutch and I always assumed he was saying something in English wich just sounded dutch,
We call that a Mama Appelsap.

yeah there are a few moments in here where he sings in dutch ("het leven is hard, de mensen worden bang" for example) so I kinda doubt he just made up all the lyrics on the spot. I'm calling bullshit on the whole 'made up as he went along'

ifw6giughhhhhhhhhhhhh SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET URGGGGGGGGGGCFXVHJH rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRR

I am very curious why he speaks Dutch.
Because I always tought that it sounded familliar but never assumed that it was in fact Dutch that he was singing in...

I sang this at lunch at my school.

Hilarity ensured.

I miss Nick & Mark...

...and Grohl?

THIS FUCKING SONG ROCKS!!!

That's what she said

its so short but I love it!

I dont even know what Frusciante is doing here

Well, that was not what I was going for, atleast. I don't think they sound alike at all. They both have their own sound. Actually I haven't heard any band that sounds more or less the same as either of them. Just this one. And yes, you're right.

I LOVE THIS FUCKING SONG, GREAT TUNE HERE...

Haha, ''Het leven is hard, de mensen worden bang'' translated to English is ''Life is hard, the peole are getting scared.'' So you're your friend Google did it's job:p. Awesome song though!!

it's funny earing john at the 0:01

this is the sorta song you wanna dance and sing to........in nothing but your underwear

Shame he went downhill and got fired

This song is way too short :(

Lol, exactly! xD And the riffing in this one sounds a little like Darons as well I think, but yeah, probably mostly because of Nick and Serj being equally crazy. xD

tru dat. never noticed it until you said so. probably because nick and serj are both utterly batshit insane, lol.

Haters gonna hate probably, but I'm tellin' ya, this has a certain System of a Down-vibe to it.

I agree man

YEAH YEAH YEAH

DRIVE FAST DRIVE FAST !!

Oh yeah it does!

I love the shit out of this song.

Sorry, my bad. I always thought the song title was The Quick & the Pointless. :)

Hmm...?

That's s a wrong title you got there.

Ik ben zo oud, jij zo jong! ;)

and without a doubt one of the best songs on the album

This song always reminds me of Dillinger escape plan XD

haha yeah its all good no worries. I was just saying he probably had a few lyric ideas already then just added to it as he went

Yeah, I've realized my comment is misleading because it suggests that he made the whole thing up on the spot. It's obvious that they had to have written and played it a bit before recording it, but regardless, it has the energy and power of someone just nailing it on the first try.

If this was the first take them damn, he is good with his Dutch, or had a basic idea of what he was going to say haha

i can never remember the name of this song. thats because in my head, its called 'the awesome slutty cheerleader song'. i dont know why it makes me think of slutty cheerleaders, it just does.

@Karathi87 Dat hoor ik ook echt elke keer xD

@Karathi87 ik denk ja, maar nee

The most crazy song ever! I could listen to this song all day long

@mimickick haha, really?! That does put this song in a different light lol. The fact that there's Dutch intertwined in a couple lines makes it even more amusing.

Thanks for sharing

oh I see that's a cliché by now :p

how about this: FUCK YEAAH!! this song is awesomeeee

hahaha
'Godverdomme
Het leven is hard de mensen worden bang
Ik denk van ja, maar nee'

QOTSA is just not the same without Nick ;_;

@mimickick Replying so everyone sees this at the top ;)

Everybody knows that this was the FIRST take of this song right? That Nick made up the vocals as he went along? Let that shit deepen your appreciation...

holy shit nick oliveri is amaZing!

Ik zeg van ja, maar nee! Little girl, listen what I say!

@MasterScribler it's godverdomme... means goddamn!

Kinda reminds me of Eagles of Death Metal :)

OLIVERI'S DICK IS SO YUM

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAA.

i love the energy of this song

so sweeeiiiiiiiiiiiiiit

yah yah yah= sexy

is this song about albert fish? that first spoken line is what he said before he was fried in the chair and some of the lyrics would suggest it to be also at least in part.

Govendomme this is a good song

@poepiefacepj
Three actually: Ik denk van ja, maar nee (I think yes, but no) at 1.11

me gusta mucho *.*

babahom xD

everybody everyone lets go
