Goo Goo Dolls

Friends

Goo Goo Dolls

Their original name was The Sex Maggots. They changed it when a promoter refused to book them until they got rid of it. They got the name "Goo Goo Dolls" from an ad in True Detective magazine.
They released 4 albums before their fifth, A Boy Named Goo, became a hit in 1995. Their early albums did well on college radio and in their home town of Buffalo, New York.
Their biggest hits, "Name," "Iris" and "Slide," are ballads which are not typical of their ordinarily harder sound.
Rzeznik started living on his own when he was 15.
Goo Goo Dolls have contributed to the soundtracks of Ace Ventura II, Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare, Tommy Boy, Batman And Robin, and City Of Angels.
Malinin replaced their previous drummer George Tutuska shortly before the just before the Boy Named Goo tour. He knew all their previous songs and was a fan before he joined the ranks.

Lyrics:

We keep heading in the same direction
�You become my own reflection
�Is that your soul that you're trying to protect
�I always hoped that we would intersect, yeah
�
You need time to cope and time to heal
�Time to cry if it's what you feel
�Life can hurt when it gets too real
�I can hold you up when it's hard to feel
�
Alive alive
Alive is all I wanna feel
�Tonight tonight I need to be where you are
�I need to be where you are
�
Hey you look around
�Can you hear than noise it's a rebel sound
�We got nowhere else to go
�And when the sun goes down and we fill the streets
�You're gonna dance till the morning to the rebel's beat
�You can take everything from me
�Cause this all I need
�
You know that life is like a ticking clock
�Nobody knows when it's gonna stop, yeah
�Before I'm gone I need to touch someone
�With a word with a kiss with a decent song, yeah
�
And it gets lonely when you live out loud
�When the truth that you seek isn't in this crowd
�You better find you're voice better make it loud
�We've gotta burn that fire or it will just burn out
�
Alive alive
Alive is all I wanna feel
�Tonight tonight I need to be where you are
�I need to be where you are
�
Hey you look around
�Can you hear than noise it's a rebel sound
�We got nowhere else to go
�And when the sun goes down and we fill the streets
�You're gonna dance till the morning to the rebel's beat
�You can take everything from me, oh yeah
�You can take everything from me
�Cause this all I need
�
We are free tonight
�And everything's alright
�Put your arms around me
Baby show me how to move you
�
Cause there's no worry there's no cares
�Feel the sound thats everywhere
�Take the sound thats ours for once
�And run like hell
�
Hey you look around
�Can you hear than noise it's a rebel sound
�We got nowhere else to go
�
Hey you look around
�Can you hear than noise it's a rebel sound
�We got nowhere else to go
�And when the sun goes down and we fill the streets
�You're gonna dance till the morning to the rebel's beat
�You can take everything from me, oh yeah
�You can take everything from me
�Cause this all I need
�Yeah this is all I need
