Rusted Root Neologisms

(btw still mad at old lunch for introducing me to this abomination)

I was cranking the Root when I got the ying-yang tatted on my neck back in '96, and then again when I got my dickhole pierced in '98. No better anesthetic imo.

(You'll come around, bg. Might I suggest some musically-accompanied body mods?)

I decided to get both eardrums pierced after hearing this song.

Also performed some minor self-trepanation to let out all the ill humors.

Wicked mods, bro.

It had to be done. Ehbubadeesaybubadeeyon, as they say.

If I didn't have my Rusted Root CD with me, I would just spoon Rainforest Crunch directly into my ears.

The single peaked at #72 on the Hot 100, and the album got no higher than #51. So why was this on the radio all the goddamn time?

DJs be hittin the ganj

this song is a persuasive argument for instituting the death penalty for marijuana possession

got a blacklight poster in yr dorm showing an alien smoking weed? you're doing 10 years hard time sonny

own a tie-dye tshirt? that's a public flogging

got a problem with that? blame rusted root, they ruined this for everyone

'Your honor, I only have one thing to say to you: simmyommaway.' (shimmies out of the courtroom and toward the awaiting paddywagon as a pennywhistle plays from the jury box)

*sounds the hibernophobia klaxon, awaits dmac's arrival itt*

Let's be fair: the music of Rusted Root is a hate crime against all people.

Bubbadesay bubbadeyon, my damie.

ITT: people who hate the ending o matilda and thus hate joy

Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong

Under the shade of a oombayseeyou tree, 

He sang as he watched and waited 'til his seemoobadeeyah
You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me

if you take the oombayseeyous out of the Rusted Root, you're left with Yeasayer

so sorry to take a swing at ilm's most talked about and loved band, Yeasayer

actually there might be something to that. take out the oombaseeyous and they might've been capable of making at least half a good album like side one of odd blood

their first 2 albums (which were essentially the same album, btw) were good

If you liked our first album, you're gonna wonder why you paid for our second!

Knock on Yeasayer all you like, just don't ever let me catch you badmouthing Yesyears.

ombaysee how this poll turns out

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

*wise old Native American man grins and nods sagely at the poll results; gestures for all of ILM to follow him toward mysterious doorway*

this is some fucking bullshit

mods, please delete my account

oombayseeyou later ilx

Yessssssss, fucking knew it. OOMBAYSEEYOU LATER!

Lol, xpost

seemoobullshitbadeeyah

I demand a re-poll with the critical 3rd option.

I'm happy to repoll if we can agree to exclude the obviously inferior 'oombayseeyou' option.

It wouldn't matter because the resplendent "ehbubadeesaybubadeeyon" would obviously stomp on anything you put in there, up to and including "ommaway," "covfefe," "sloopy," and "sussudio."

I appreciate their absolute nothing of a Wikipedia entry. These are the only two paragraphs, the rest is basically stats stuff -- discography, membership, etc.

Rusted Root is an American worldbeat rock band formed in 1990 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, by singer-guitarist Michael Glabicki, bassist Patrick Norman and percussionist Liz Berlin. The band got its start as the house band playing a weekly gig in Jack's Back Room on Pittsburgh's South Side. The band achieved fame in 1994 with its platinum-selling album When I Woke, which included the hit single "Send Me on My Way". The song has been featured prominently in many films and commercials. Rusted Root has sold more than three million albums.

The band is known for its fusion of acoustic, rock, world and other styles of music, with a strong percussion section that draws from African, Latin American, and Native American influences. Michael Glabicki has acknowledged the popular success of Peter Gabriel's 1986 album So as an influence on his decision to incorporate worldbeat into his own music. The band's lyrical content varies but often talks about Christianity and Judaism.

So, are you saying you feel a little bit of distance from the Rusted Root material, a lot of which was written when you were in your early 20s?

Yeah, there’s been moments on stage when I’m like, “What am I doing?” Like, “I don’t know what this is.” But, then, luckily, I’m fortunate enough that the music was so open-ended and wasn’t written about a certain time in my life. It was sort of like this collection of images and it was more tonal than it was lyrical. “Send Me on My Way” had “moobahdesee, moobahdeyah,” which aren’t even words, so now I can just sort of like adapt the tone to where I’m at now. It’s more ritualistic at this point for the audience and for myself, and improvising in it and opening it up, there’s a lot more in it to find.

big if true

I'm very embarrassed to learn I've been misspelling it this whole time.

moobahdesee, moobahdeyah

What the HELL, man, I mean Windchimes?

We have spent years on this and are just barely able to comprehend the subtleties of "oombayseeyou." Now you throw us two new mystikal inkantations to process?

Better open up them chakras, bruh, let the Rusted light come shining in.

My brother was just telling me about Rusted playing the restaurant where he works, I was so jelly, my dudes, as I'm sure you can imajh.

can't believe this guy is ceo of twitter now

I assume you mean twibbattasayehbubaderon.com
