Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Tab Wanna Be	#1 by Tab at Mar 22, 1982 at 9:28 AM EST
	i really like this song, it's one of my favorites on bssm. ironically, i read in ak's autobiography that it's like his least favorite song. he just wrote it for rick rubin because rick said he liked songs about girls and cars. but anthony said he "never really found my place in the song". okay, it scares me a little that i know that. have to go reevaluate my place in life-- j/k

No Picture tane Wanna Be	#2 by tane at Mar 22, 2003 at 5:40 PM EST
	Did anyone know that AK hates this song? It was suggested to him to write a song about cars for radio play by his producer or someone. It's in Scar Tissue.

No Picture Tom Average	#3 by Tom Someguy at Apr 24, 2003 at 12:43 AM EST
	Lol I hate this song not because Keidis does its just the only RHCP song i hate

No Picture Al Average	#4 by Al Turner at Oct 7, 2007 at 8:29 AM EST
