I think a Toxicity track is going take out the whole thing.

I'll say this: I think the melody to "My Sacrifice" is very nice. It's always had a kind of 90s-Disney-animated-movie feel, to my ears. Like something that Hercules would sing or whatever. With different instrumentation (AND LYRICS) I think I could actually like it. But yeah, as it stands, it is a bad song, and "Chop Suey" is legitimately great.
If you haven't seen this, it goes into great detail on everything going on in the "Chop Suey" composition, arrangement and recording

That guy's channel is great! He belongs in the 'Videos About Music (Not Music Videos)' thread.

Scott Stapp's ability to extend his lower jaw past normal human limits is pretty impressive.

My Sacrifice: Haha to another example of the singer rejecting a hot woman. What a stupid high budget video. Waste of money. I get why the song was popular. It's catchy. But goddamn I hate that voice. 2:10.
I don't even have to listen to Chop Suey again. Great song, duh.

This is probably the first time I've heard "Chop Suey" in 15 years -- holy crap, what a great song. That last chorus is spine-chilling.

Much better than the poor bird singing "Bodies", that should be considered animal abuse.

What is his sacrifice? I dont get it. The song makes no sense.
