	If you don't agree with my above translation, whatever. :p

No Picture AJ Rhythm Player	#2 by AJ Frank at Feb 11, 1974 at 8:50 AM EST
	This song is amazing, when i listen to it, it's like i'm taken to a different place... it has all the perfect elements to it... simply perfection...I love the message of fuck you to society... im me... ye

No Picture darren Wanna Be	#3 by darren sackaney at Feb 15, 1985 at 9:02 PM EST
	this is an amazing song...though this submission's lyrics arent exactly right (afterall, the lyrics are in the sleeve of "morning view" so i dont know how they could be misconstrued...) "if this is sight, i'd rather be blind" i agree. these lyrics, as with many other incubus songs, can manage to say 'screw you' in one of the strongest ways while saying so little words. it puts up so many errors in the world today for ridicule; and i love incubus for it: finally someone is willing to say something.

No Picture thomas Wanna Be	#4 by thomas staken at May 24, 1988 at 1:35 PM EST
	Yes, you're right.

	This song to me, is just a response to all those bands out there that think you have to be angry at everything, that you have to be full of hatred to be smart or on the right track. He's basically saying "These eyes are not the colour that your arid eyes might be" No I don't see the world in such a bleak light, but I refuse to kneel before the sights you choose to see, and if this is the way the world should be seen, I'd rather be blind. I think it's a brilliant song, and it's a great anthem against the Slipknots and gay bands like that out there, that think anger's the one true way.

No Picture chris Average	#6 by chris ovari at Nov 2, 1997 at 11:22 AM EST
	ur right... and i like mrclean's translation a lot... this song is yet another amazingly written incubus song

No Picture Terence Wanna Be	#7 by Terence Sharp at Feb 19, 2001 at 8:47 PM EST
	Ok, You are ALL wrong so far. Not every damn song on Morning View is about his break-up. There's a lot more to Boyd than a broken heart. He wouldn't waste away a whole album about a break-up when theres a million other, more important things he could write about. The message of this song is clear. "No I was not around, when those eyes of yours decided so, I refuse to kneel before the sights you choose to see." What he's saying is, He disagree's with something, it could be anything, and when that something was decided, he was not around, and had no say in it. And now that he is around, he feels he has the right to defy it, because, in the beginning, he had no say in it. Simple as that. Now, back to the whole Morning View Break Up B/S. Yes, there are a few songs about the break-up, Blood on The Ground, Mexico, Circles, and I believe thats it. Whoever said "Nice To Know You" is about a break up, they're wrong. I can see how it would sound like that to the untrained ear though. Its not about a break up, its about Brandons Finger Falling asleep. Don't believe me? Then check out http://www.enjoyincubus.com . He portrays the meaning on their website.

No Picture Mark Wanna Be	#8 by Mark masta at Sep 9, 2004 at 5:27 PM EST
	if this is sight i'd rather be blind what the fuck, does it get any better than this?

No Picture Ryan Average	#9 by Ryan Patrick at Sep 29, 2004 at 3:34 AM EST
	i love this song because it depicts someone who doesn't get swept up in the mainstream of what's popular if it's something he/she dislikes or doesn't agree with.
