The Official "Myles Kennedy RULES!" Thread (Fort Myles)

[SWhite]

Biggity biggity bump!

[Mr. Slash]

Every time Myles has used the word "Deny" or variations of the word in his songs:

"No More Heroes" -I won't deny it leaves me cold x4
"You're A Lie" - Everything you are I will deny x1
"Halo" - Don't deny it x3
"Bad Rain" - Still she denies everything so brazenly x1
"Hard & Fast" - But I can't deny x3
"Shadow Life" - And still you just deny it all x1
"Wicked Stone" - 'Cause I can't stay and I can't deny that x3
"30 Years To Life" - What I did I can’t deny x3
"Stone Blind" - It's the truth I can't deny x1
"The Dissident" - There is something that I can't deny x1 / But I can't deny x1
"The Unholy" - Don’t deny x1 / We will deny you x1
"Back From Cali" - The lights are faded and I can't deny x1
“Cry of Achilles” -Nothing left to do but deny the truth x1
“Addicted To Pain” - You can't deny, the house of cards just hit the floor x1
“Lover” - If you deny the wounds of your lover you will discover x5
“Calm The Fire” - And now you know you can't deny x2
“Waters Rising” - There's no denying we were so wrong x1 /There's no denying we are so lost x1
“Cry A River” - All you need I will deny you x2/ I will deny! x2 /All you need I will deny x2
“Fortress” - In the end, too far gone, this I can’t deny x1
“Slip To The Void” - But it's all in the way you touch and you obey denial x2
“Still Remains” - You’ll deny it all x1 / You’ll deny me once again x1
“Zero” - All that you’ve known you deny x1
“Break Me Down” - I've denied x1

Total So Far: 50 times he’s denied something. Still MF4 and maybe Citizen Swing left.

Someone should update that list.

Nah, it's just for the lulz. Myles is our favorite goof.

It was never intended to be taken as I "crapping on Myles". I was simply just noticing a pattern in his lyrical content and did a word count for shits and giggles. No negative intention on my part.

Someone should update that list.

I'll get on that later today!

If you listen closely to the first line of Addicted to Pain, he says: "Tell me how it feels to live denied."

... then like a silly person, he rhymes that on the next line with "deny."

Pretty sure it's "tell me how it feels to live a lie"

Pretty sure, actually, what you really just heard was the whoosh that went over your head.

[Arctic]

I don’t think any other lyrical repetitions he does come anywhere close to the ‘deny’ thing, but I’m pretty sure I’ve heard him use the phrase ‘save tomorrow’ a few times. He also likes ‘forevermore.’ I think there are one or two more but I can’t remember them off the top of my head. Gotta love him.

The words aren't all exactly the same, but phrases like "What have you done," "What have we done," and "What we've done" appear in Slip to the Void, This Side of Fate, and The Last Hero, respectively.

(speaking of "done," there's also the song The Damage Done and the opening lyrics to In Loving Memory is "Thanks for all you've done.")

But yes, he uses "more" quite often in "forevermore" and "anymore" a bit as well. Sometimes he also has things "come crashing down" or something to that effect, lol. He has also stated that things have been "consumed" on multiple occasions as well, correct (at least in Bleed It Dry and Fallout)?

And of course, they have referenced birds/wings and such plenty of times, starting with Broken Wings and carrying through with Blackbird. Even the song "Words Darker Than Their Wings," though it doesn't contain the lyric, idealizes that symbolism once again. It's actually quite beautiful when you think about it.

I kind of like when artists have a staple such as this, so long as the context doesn't feel repeated every time.

Whenever I use the word "deny" in everyday speech, I literally stop for a moment and think of Myles, and it makes me very happy.

Definitely a whoosh, because I still don't get it.

[MuffinMcFluffin]

I was just being sarcastic, nothing else to it. I thought the last line of me saying he rhymed "denied" with "deny" would have given it away, heh.

A lot of my posts have sarcasm, just a heads up. It's pretty blatant when I do it. I can stop at any time if someone feels it's too overbearing, heh.

Ok I think I get it now. Kind of like how people poke fun at Eminem's "mom's spaghetti" line and replace the actual rhymes with the same "mom's spaghetti". Sorry it was just hard to pick up without spoken word, just came off like you really thought those were the lyrics

[Torsten]

Huge promotional campaign, issue of Sandbox.

[TenaciousBe]

You might be cool, but you'll never be "Myles Kennedy playing Hallelujah on Jeff Buckley's guitar at The Olympia" cool.

[Mr. Slash]

Alter Bridge even uploaded a pro shot.

[gbruin]

Besides that pro shot performance being so good I get chills, I am just so happy for Myles about this. Playing that song on Buckley's guitar in that venue must be one of the biggest thrills of his musical life (the others being playing with Led Zeppelin, the Royal Albert Hall show, and meeting me at a M&G).
