I Saw U2 Live Twice's definitions

fuck

OK, everybody seems to have their definitions of this nasty word. Here's one you all missed. It's the name of an indie band from the San Francisco Bay Area that got together around 1993 or so. They have put out several albums over the years. The music is pretty much alright, there are some good songs there, and their albums are critically acclaimed but because of the band name radio won't play their music, most record stores won't stock their albums, and most clubs won't book them. If it weren't for the Internet they probably wouldn't be going anywhere. Go to Wikipedia, type in the name and go to the proper entry. At the bottom of that page is a link to the band's website.
Fuck is a band that is in a situation where because of their name their prospects for success are limited. The success they have is largely due to word-of-mouth and of course, the Net.

freedom

1. Liberty, the ability to do what you want to as long as you're not hurting someone else. A cornerstone of the United States of America.

2. A 1985 hit for British duo Wham!. Note how singer George Michael puts on the image of being straight in the lyrics.

3. Of all the hit songs that were written after 9/11 that truly expresses America's heritage of liberty, this song by Sir Paul McCartney does it best without turning patriotism into money. It's by a Brit, too. Imagine that. All the other "patriotic" pop and country tunes that the damn radio played are trend-chasing garbage.
1. The U.S. Constitution embodies American freedom and democracy.

2. ... I don't want your freedom
I don't want to play around
I don't want nobody baby
Part time love just brings me down
I don't need your freedom
Girl all I want right now is you
Du du du...

3. ... I will fight for the right
To live in freeee-dom...

Madonna

1. the Italian name for the Virgin Mary, Mother of Jesus

2. a pop entertainer who has some decent songs and does stupid image things to start controversies and sell albums and other items like her book "Sex". Some of her videos have offended many people and some of them have even been banned by MTV, VH1 and other video networks and programs. They have featured things like sex with a dead man, burning crosses, S & M scenes, violence, her in a VERY tight sweater (Vogue)and more. She has posed for smut mags and porno flicks. Her current tour features a skit where she acts as a dominitrix and sings while strapped to a cross, mocking Jesus. The shitty teen pop phenomenon (Britney, Xtina, etc.) is entirely inspired by Madonna, so she has a lot to answer for.
1. I saw a Madonna and child painting at the art museum today.

2. While on tour in Italy Madonna invited the pope to see her show in Rome. Needless to say, he didn't go. He, the local Jewish community and the local Muslim community asked her not to reenact the mock crucifixion scene in her Rome show. She did it anyway.

Rush

1. to hurry
2. sensation (sometimes a "high") you get from something powerful
3. the first name of a hypocritical extremist demagougue drug addict radio talk show host
4. a very intelligent progressive hard rock band from Canada that plays kick-ass songs with mature, "thinking-man" lyrics. Now that Pink Floyd is disbanded, the award for giving the best and most spectacular concerts in the world goes to Rush. See them before they grow old and retire. You'll get a real thrill, guaranteed.
1. We gotta rush if we're going to be at the football game on time.
2. I get a rush from being with you, honey.
3. Johnny listens to Rush Limbaugh on the radio, he says he's a Christian but he follows Rush L. instead of Jesus.
4. Rush has been around for over 30 years and have influenced many bands like Living Colour and Queensryche. Rush should be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

pedo

1. "Pedo" is a slang abbreviated form of the word "pedophile". That's a disgusting individual who likes to sexually molest children, from babies to teenagers. Sick-o's.

2. A Spanish word for "flatulence" or "fart".
1. In the seaport of Subic Bay Eric and Larry disembarked to get some panama. A little girl age around 7 offered 'BJ'. Eric said, "No. You're too young". Larry took her by the hand and said, "OK. Gimme one". Larry is a pedo, a perv, a sick mother fucker to the max.

2. Donald Trump said, "I want all you spicks out of this country. Leave now or I'll kill you!". Latinos and Latinas then turned around, mooned Trump and let off a collective pedo in his direction as their tribute to his Pompous Ass-ness.

cruel to be kind

when you have to be cruel to be kind, it simply means you are dishing out tough love to your lover. (S)he will later recognize that you have his/her best interests in mind and will later be grateful for what you are doing. Things will all pan out in the end, your lover just has to trust you.
"Cruel to be Kind" is a late 1979 hit for British rock'n'roller Nick Lowe. He's made other great witty songs as well, check out his 1989 greatest hits release "Basher: The Best of Nick Lowe", it's terrific. Also, a different song of the same title appears on the debut album "Resident Alien" by Spacehog, from 1995.
... cruel to be kind
in the right measure
cruel to be kind
it's a very good sign (dit dit)
cruel to be kind
means that I love you
babyyyy
you gotta be cruel, you gotta be cruel to be kind
woo hoo hoo hoooo hooo hoooo...

riot

1. a violent disturbance. Mayhem, may result in people getting injured, maybe even killed. Property damage and destruction, arson and vandalism usually occur during a riot.

2. a trip, a blast, a gas, anything that is funny and/or cracks people up. Something that is fun.
1. In the spring of 1992 many people believed that the "Rodney King riots" that erupted in several American cities was a case of "black rage". I saw on ABC-TV live coverage reports that the rioters had plenty of non-black people in their ranks: there were a lot of white and Hispanic looters and vandals as well. Also, one morning that week, ABC showed that some black-owned shops and businesses had also been trashed during the disturbances. The weeklong ruckus was not a "racial" thing. It was for most of the participants an excuse to chuck a brick into a pharmacy window, or to steal a stereo from an electronics store, or simply just to "fuck some shit up".

2. I was driving in Canada when I heard that Phil Hartman was murdered by his wife, who then killed herself. Still, to this day nobody knows why it happened. It'll probably forever be a mystery. Nonetheless, it was a tragic event. I've seen Phil on SNL and other TV shows and movies, and he was a total riot.
