So is it just me, or was Bryan Danielson's best theme song without a fucking doubt "Self Esteem" by the Offspring when he first started in ROH? Seriously, what a great entrance. I miss the American Dragon days. Final Countdown holds nothin' on Self Esteem.

Yes.
My brother and I used to listen to his Offspring CDs together, so I'm biased. Great song, great theme. Love the Final Countdown though, and that's what I want him to use in the E.

Yeah, I sometimes forget how good the Offspring were when they started out, from like 89-99 they were a pretty fucking awesome band. Then "Kind of Fly For a White Guy" came out and they just became awful. Such a shame, Smash was probably one of the best albums of the 90s. Self-Esteem is probably their best song IMO. Could listen to it a thousand times and never get tired of it.
I'd love to see him use Final Countdown in the E, but no way is that happening, no way would WWE buy the rights to the song just to use for Danielson. They might do a Jimmy Hart version of it though, I could see that happening.
Wish I could find some YouTube videos of Danielson's entrances when he first started in ROH. All they have is the Final Countdown.

I remember when Raven began using "Come Out and Play (Keep'Em Separated)" in some indies
Damn, Smash is such a good album

Is it okay if I gloss over that FAIL of mine?
I love "Genocide" and "Not the One" from that album, while the taster of "Change the World" at the end of "Smash" is great too

Has a pretty good dick.
It kinda upsets me that I had nothing to do with Twist's banning

Final Countdown would be awesome for Danielson's debut match as an 'official' member of the roster in WWE if nothing else.

They hardly ever use non-original songs anymore. Or they'll have some shit modern rock band write song. If they used it it would be a cut and butchered rip off much like Jericho's theme in WCW.

Cut and butchered as in...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBhcz2NGCx0
Yes, definitely.
I also wish Spanky would have stuck with Christina Aguilera's "Genie in a Bottle" as his theme. Every one in ROH he used after that sucked.
I always liked it when he used Jurassic 5's "Quality Control" much more actually, thought that was his best theme ever, he went back and forth with that one and the Genie in a Bottle song, but Quality Control was awesome, made his entrance epic as hell and every time he won a match that sick beat would start playing again, lol.
Some awesome themes back when ROH first started. I still can't watch Christopher Daniels enter a ring without hearing Disposable Teens.

Best angle of all: retirement
On a short list of 5 albums I can get into everytime beginning to end, "Smash" is up there. I think there's one track I may skip, and that's because I heard "Come out and play" too many times at Jr. High dances.
EDIT: Also, FUCK! I was waiting for the other shoe to drop with Twatofrko. Why'd I have to miss it? That's the nature of this place, I suppose. Many thanks around to those responsible for deciding to can the turd.

I would say that after the success of "Pretty Fly for a White Guy," Dexter and co. stopped trying to produce great albums and focussed more on trying to garner singles success with more mainstream type music.
They have produced plenty of songs that I consider enjoyable - Staring at the Sun, Kids Aren't Alright; A Million Miles Away; Rage Against Myself; You're Gonna Go Far, Kid to name a few - but they have increasingly moved away from their original sound. I still enjoy listening to them but for different reasons.
Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace is far more in the 'easy listening' bracket than their 'neo-punk' roots and that saddens me.

"All I Want" is good but because it was released before "Pretty Fly", I left it off my previous post.
Pretty good Steve, watching Smackdown from this past Friday, having a drink, don't have to work tomorrow so I'm just relaxing. How about yourself?
All good, man. Going to check in on the game in a bit. You better hope the Celtics win now. And hopefully, I get a reply to Tastycles' thread in the music section up as well, plus I actually get a thread in the Cigar Lounge started.

Don't do it. That is where good threads go to die, especially if you post on a very niche subject that comes off more as a history lesson than actually starting a debate
