View Full Version : CAKE
CAKE, which I've only recently started listening to because I'm a heathen, is so fucking awesome its not even funny.
Every song I've found (About twenty so far) is awesome. The music is so soothing...It just makes me want to close my eyes and drift back and forth in rhythm to it. Makes me a bit sleepy, but in a good way.
Also, before anyone else makes the Portal joke, me and my friend, who sort of introduced me to CAKE, had the idea to make a parody band of CAKE and call it LIE. The songs would be completely opposite, heavy but with the exact same lyrics and such.
I had heard quite a few of these songs (Short skirt long jacket,I will survive, The Distance [Especially The Distance], etc)
Anyone else like CAKE?
...Or are you all heathens?
Seriously, many of these songs almost bring a tear to my eye...

Cake is one of my personal favorite bands.
Favorite songs include Comfort Eagle, Nugget, Rock and Roll Lifestyle, and their rendition of I will Survive.

I have what can only be called a discography of them. I have everything I could possibly find, I even purchased CD's.
And Fenris introduced me to them ages ago.

We are building a religion
We are building it bigger
We are widening the corridors
And adding more lanes
We are building a religion
A limited edition
We are now accepting callers
For these pendant key chains
To resist it is useless
It is useless to resist it
His cigarette is burning
But he never seems to ash
He is grooming his poodle
He is living comfort eagle
You can meet at his location
But you'd better come with cash
Now his hat is on backwards
He can show you his tatoos
He is in the music business
He is calling you "DUDE!"
Now today is tomorrow
And tomorrow today
And yesterday is weaving in and out
And the fluffy white lines
That the airplane leaves behind
Are drifting right in front
Of the waning of the moon
He is handling the money
He's serving the food
He knows about your party
He is calling you "DUDE!"
Now do you believe
In the one big sign
The doublewide shine
On the bootheels of your prime
Doesn't matter if you're skinny
Doesn't matter if you're fat
You can dress up like a sultan
In your onion head hat
We are building a religion
We are making a brand
We're the only ones to turn to
When your castles turn to sand
Take a bite of this apple
Mr. corporate events
Take a walk through the jungle
Of cardboard shanties and tents
Some people drink Pepsi
Some people drink Coke
The wacky morning DJ
Says democracy's a joke
He says now do you believe
In the one big song
He's now accepting callers
Who would like to sing along
He says, do you believe
In the one true edge
By fastening your safety belts
And stepping towards the ledge
He is handling the money
He is serving the food
He is now accepting callers
He is calling me "DUDE!"
Do you believe
In the one big sign
The doublewide shine
On the bootheels of your prime
There's no need to ask directions
If you ever lose your mind
We're behind you
We're behind you
And let us please remind you
We can send a car to find you
If you ever lose your way
We are building a religion
We are building it bigger
We are building
A religion
A limited
Edition
We are now accepting callers...
For these beautiful...
Pendant keychains
Cake is an awesome band, and their best song and album incidentally have the same name: Comfort Eagle.

I really enjoyed their version of Gloria Gaynor's "I will survive."
If some jackass who dumped me showed up sitting around my house out of the blue I'd cuss them out too.

They did this cover of some old country song called Ruby Sees All I believe.
It is pure unadulterated awesome in sonic form.
Also, Stickshifts and Safety Belts.

Cake is great.
Comfort Eagle is an awesome song but god damn it generates the weirdest flash animations. (http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/comforteagle)
