THOUGH some critics have derided them as a mere novelty act, Barenaked Ladies offer testimony that persistence and hard work can pay off in big ways. Thanks to relentless touring and impressive media savvy — as well as undeniable pop smarts — the Canadian band has seen its grassroots following grow into a solid fan base both in its native country and abroad. By sticking, for the most part, to a philosophy that espouses good times (as opposed to grand statement), the group has carved out a niche of its own, and its prospects for a long musical future look better than ever. Initially a duo, Barenaked Ladies got its start in 1988, when childhood friends Steven Page (vocals/guitar) and Ed Robertson (guitar) discovered they enjoyed singing together at summer camp.

(Submit New Barenaked Ladies Lyrics) (Submit New Barenaked Ladies Lyrics) Review about Barenaked Ladies Halmet | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song When I Fall performed by Barenaked Ladies Greatest Song Ever. And, it's themes are straight from Hamlet's "To be or not to be" soliloquy. The guy is depressed, he's afraid of heights, he's suicidal, but afraid of death all the same - "that fear of something after death...thus conscience makes cowards of us all" - what happens if we die - when we die. great song | Reviewer: Phex ------ About the song Pinch Me performed by Barenaked Ladies i just heard this song from a friend and had to look up the lyrics and listen to it again. its amazing, and totally makes me look at life in a whole different perspective. Its great. All in all: Fantastic Song Its a great song ... | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Lovers In A Dangerous Time performed by Barenaked Ladies used to listen to barenakeds back in high school ... with their song ...its all been done ... happened to listen to this one some time back ... knew what they were talkin about was true ... but didnt know i will fall in the same situation soon ... : ) ... changed a job and met this girl during training ... fell in love sort of with sweet anjali ... when she was about to be engaged in arranged marriage ... now i see her slipping away ... and not sure what i can do when she doesn't want to go against the families wishes ... lovers in a dangerous time ... : ) ... lets see what life has in store for us ... god bless all the lovers and otherwise too ... : ) ... namaste ... Barenaked Despair | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Pinch Me performed by Barenaked Ladies Everyone seems to be implying this is a light-hearted song about happy memories... it is nothing of the sort. It is a song about despair... depression... meaninglessness. If you disagree that's fine, but listen to the song again, and (as I did) read the sleevenotes to BNL: All Their Greatest Hits. It's all there. Sorry to dampen the mood, but I think this is a thousand miles away from your opinions. It's a beautiful, tragic song about modern existential futility. In my view. =) It also helped me a great deal when I was in high school and didn't realise these kinds of feelings affected other people, too. P.S. The Ladies ARE a funny light-hearted band, which is admirable. They can fuse dark topics with upbeat music, a bit like EELS. Great Song | Reviewer: Glitch ------ About the song Pinch Me performed by Barenaked Ladies I have loved the Barenaked Ladies since I was seven years old, and I recently got back into listening to them. What people need to realize is that "childish and immature" is their style. For those who say that: Have you ever listened to their music?! These guys have fun with their songs. So what? It's still a LOT better than most things out there today. best song ever | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song One Week performed by Barenaked Ladies ok I just love this song I herd it and now i know the whole song off by heart i think people love this so because on youtube some guys calling every store and asking for Chickity China the Chinese chicken. lol bye peoples :D BARE NAKED LADIES ARE HOT!( the band duh) sweet bebe' | Reviewer: becca ------ About the song One Week performed by Barenaked Ladies lol this song is awesome. i remember hearing it when i was little, say ten yrs or so ago. went and picked up "one hit wonders of the 90's" cd a couple of months back and re-heard this. its a shame we dont have music like this on our radios anymore. anyway, came here to pick up the lyrics so i can sing it on the bus to drive my friends mad. haha. :) thanks to the submitter of these lyrics. nice job. agree | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Alcohol performed by Barenaked Ladies Mr. Manning... I totally agree with you... unfortunatly for me (and alot of people) I have been going through an alcoholic period in my life... and this is definatly a love song to alcohol... but from the other side (someone who can legally drink, and does too much) I can see a bright side in this song... the first stanza pretty much sums up my life... but all the asking for apologies... that really hits home... and like you said, very catchy tune, and memorable lyrics, I'm glad other people like it, and I'd be glad to hear others opinions... dumb | Reviewer: me ------ About the song Pinch Me performed by Barenaked Ladies sorry to say this but some parts of this song is just dumb. Underwhere? it might make u think of ur childhood but to me (still in childhood) its really... crappy. "theres a restauraunt...people like to eat" probably a 5 year old wrote this mwahaha | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song One Week performed by Barenaked Ladies luv dis song..... ^___^ i sing it all the time ta annoy meh friends. esp the chickety china verse. love<3 friends hate me for it <3 <3 <3 like somebody mentioned, it took me few dozen times listnin ta it ta catch "sailor moon" in lyrics... i got some old vids uf da show, but never watched it much on tv....... dis song so freakin random ^^ jus like me!! comments | Reviewer: comment commentator ------ About the song Pinch Me performed by Barenaked Ladies wow...the internet has turned into my grandparents house: nothing but one BIG FREAKIN' argument! It doesn't matter where you go, a barenaked ladies lyrics page, a webcomic, even a documentary video, there's one person voicing an opinion, and another person making a personal attack on the first reviewer and completely forgetting about the original statement. From now on can we keep to the actual material instead of these stupid personal attacks? please??? oh, and as for the song, the way he mixes the strong feeling of being completely trapped with the nostalgia of a life without consequenses is very intriguing and i like it. drama | Reviewer: Puppy Luv ------ About the song Pinch Me performed by Barenaked Ladies wow you guys! you are supposed to be reviewing the song, not each others maturity level! btw I enjoy the song because it is funny and doesn't have some deep meaning you sit around discussing. it's fun to listen to. enjoy it don't freak out if it's immature. if it's too childish, don't listen to it! everyone needs a little immaturity every once in a while! live a little! regarding Barenaked "pinch ME" | Reviewer: tonzi of the Philippines ------ About the song Pinch Me performed by Barenaked Ladies well, citing the kind of songs they make, I think the "immaturity" aspect makes BARENAKED LADIES different from the usual songs that other bands play out there. This song alone is a standout song that puts out the childish memories that we had as kids before and realize how happy it was as all of us. As adults are now crowded with the real world problems, the song puts us into realization that wishingful thinking of childish happiness and bliss are only dreams that we need somebody to "pinch" us to realize that all of that kind of thinking is not real as we are all bounded by the sad realities of adult life. my first place with the hub | Reviewer: taiesha davis ------ About the song The Old Apartment performed by Barenaked Ladies i love this song. recently my husband and i spilt up due to wantin different things in life. we had a house on ft stewart army base and there where holes in the walls he punched. this song reminds me of all the good times we had there together. i miss em. great song! Wow | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Pinch Me performed by Barenaked Ladies That Anonymous guy cracked me up... he is scolding someone for being "immature and childish" on a barenaked ladies comment section. First of all he wasn't even being immature he was just recalling childhood nostalgia. Second, many of their songs are about childish immature humor so is their band name. hymn to defeat | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Falling For The First Time performed by Barenaked Ladies doesn't anyone get it? this song is about the bitterweet feeling that you get once you realize that you're not all that great, that all the things you believed in don't really matter, and that your life is falling apart and you don't know if and where you're going to get out of this mess. but there can be so much liberation in defeat. that's the beauty of this state and this song. it's a hymn to defeat. Great song! | Reviewer: Colin ------ About the song Satellite performed by Barenaked Ladies This is such a great song! I have listened to it on Youtube several times but I can't seem to find it to download. I know it is by Jason Plumb and Ed Robertson but when I search for it, I haven't had much luck. Stupid Girls | Reviewer: CMon ------ About the song Pinch Me performed by Barenaked Ladies Hi there this message is for that anonymous retard that seems to think its ok to write rude and immature comments about what everyone else is blogging. this message is for you. I can see why you want to remain anonymous. second, please, please, please, leave this site alone. noone wants to hear your bitching and your worthlessness. to tell someone that you know how they are feeling or the maturity level of another human first look at urself. good job trying to put others down what are you eight? stupid loser go cry at home in your bed by YOURSELF and leave smiles and jeremy alone. plzthx! <3 | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Pinch Me performed by Barenaked Ladies Hi, Smiles, please stop being an immature little child. This is a great song, and you're ruining it. Please come back when you're more mature, plzkthx. And now for you, Jeremy person. You can't say that it doesn't mean as much to anyone else. That's stupid. News flash: You're not the only one whose father died or left them. Other people have problems too. Sorry if that sounds harsh, but you can't just assume that you're the only person with problems, it just makes you seem naive. Anyway. This is a great song. I love it. BNL rocks, I hope Steve works all this drama out and that they will continue doing S&D!
