Why no love for Help Help???

this song is awesome, it's got such a stoner, no code-yieldish sound to it, and nobody gives it the respect it deserves. The boys need to bring it back to the live show, i'm sick of people hating on Help Help. that's all i'm here to say.

    Listen to it live ... if u can get a copy of the show from Michigan in 2003, grab it

    the live version brings this song to a completely new level

    It's not in the Sweet Lew category but it is definitely one of their weakest songs.

    I love this song, it's a strange but good song in the PJ catalogue.. But I can see why people dislike it, it's not a song for everybody (I don't mean that I'm better of the people who don't like it, anyway)..
    The one thing that I do not understand is that more people consider a generic song like Comatose to be a kickass song.

    love help help, great song and lyrically is perfect for riot act.
  • BrainofBGABrainofBGA Posts: 4,183
    Id agree! One of their better songs from the Riot Act album, lyrics in particular are strong and one of my fave Jeff songs.

    Adelaide 2003 is an example of how this song is much better live!

    God, that Sweet Lew song is so fucking crappy! I'm sorry no offense to Jeff but that song is just horrible.
