"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

You never hear these on the radio or anywhere.
I was watchin a surfin video and they had a ska song on there so i finally remembered the genre.

The only band ive really heard in the past was this christian band called "The O.C. Supertones" ... actually ive also heard "The mighty mighty bosstones" cuz they had that one hit lol.

Anyways, i think ska is pretty cool and upbeat, but i dont know any good bands... or any bands at all for that matter. Could any of yall point me out to some?

Less Than Jake has a ska song called Best Wishes to Your Black Lung on their Anthem CD. The funny thing is I was listening to this exact song when I saw your thread. The rest of the CD is great too so you won't be disappointed.

Listen to Reel Big Fish or Suburban Legends for kickarse upbeat ska.

Also Mad Caddies play a cool brand of punk-ska
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

first of all, its not ska dude

it doesnt sound ska at all

doesnt have ska essentials


secondly, maybe you should read what you just posted

RELATED STYLES


RELATED STYLES


RELATED STYLES............ the key word is RELATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is not the style of Smash Mouth

Its saying, ok smash mouth is so and so tsyle ( rock or w/e) ... and there are styles related to rock like classic rock, punk rock, ska rock, etc...

besides the fact that you just proved yourself wrong, trust me, SMASH MOUTh is NOT ska.

i dont hear any offbeat strumming, trumpets,trombones, along with the regular band parts such as distorted electric guitar

Most of the popular bands out there considered "ska" are really more punk/ska, or whatever. I would not consider Smash Mouth real ska.

Good ska bands are bands like Hepcat or The Slackers. Now that's ska.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
