myLot Discussions on Jimmy Eat World CD| What Jimmy Eat World song is most powerful to you and why? | | I have two Jimmy Eat World songs that are extremely powerful to me...
---the first one being "Hear You Me". this song is powerful to me because it reminds me of all the important people I have lost so far, and people who I will be losing soon from old age and health problems. it gives me chills everytime.
---the second song is "Drugs Or Me". this song is very powerful to me because my (now ex) best friend in the whole world who its always been 'with you thru thick and thin no matter what we'll always be together love you til the end' with is now addicted to many drugs and i dont even know who she is anymore. iv tried everything i can do to help her and its all just useless. | |

| | Feel-good songs. | | I know that everyone has one song that comes to mind whenever they're bored, in a foul mood, sad or angry that just seems to change their mood automatically for the better. You know what I'm talking about? That one song that just makes everything seem okay regardless of how bad it truly is. That one song that just gives you this funny warm, happy feelings all over and you find yourself dancing and singing along and just enjoying yourself. What song does that to you? My list includes "The Middle" by Jimmy Eat World and "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" by Wham. | |

Singer/guitarist Jim Adkins and drummer Zach Lind, who had been friends since kindergarten, joined forces with guitarist Tom Linton and bass player Mitch Porter to try their hand at music. In its early years, the band emulated the style of their punk-rock influences, eventually recording and releasing three singles and a full-length on local label Wooden Blue Records.The name Jimmy Eat World did not refer to lead singer Jim Adkins. Tom Linton's younger siblings, Ed and Jimmy, fought constantly when they were younger. Jimmy, who was stronger and heavier, would usually win. Ed, at 8-years-old, as revenge, drew with crayons a picture of Jimmy shoving the entire world into his gaping mouth with the caption, "Jimmy eat world." The picture, and by extension the band name, may have been inspired by an episode of the cartoon show Tiny Toon Adventures, where the main characters put on a student film festival. Dizzy Devil's film, "Dizzy Eat World", was a 5 second piece drawn crudely in crayon where Dizzy's gaping maw engulfed the Earth.[edit] Static Prevails
