Boxcar Racer
Bienvenue !

Pour commencer , une petite présentation du groupe :

Le groupe a été créé à la suite du premier break du groupe Blink 182, dans le but de: "recréer la musique qui m'a donné envie d'être dans un groupe au premier abord." Ce projet est donc lancé principalement par Tom Delonge. Pour l'enregistrement de l'album éponyme "Box Car Racer", Tom et Travis ont enregistré à eux deux tout l'album, avec l'aide de David Kennedy. Tom s'occupant de la guitare et de la basse, David s'occupant de la seconde guitare, et Travis s'occupant de la batterie et de tous les arrangements.

C'est seulement après la sortie de l'album que le groupe se décide à chercher un bassiste pour les concerts. Ce sera Anthony Celestino qui viendra remplir les rangs de Box Car Racer. Il apparaît dans les deux clips du groupe, à savoir "I Feel So" et "There Is".

On ne peut pas vraiment dire que l'idée de base de Tom est respectée, mais en tout cas Box Car Racer devient un peu plus hardcore que Blink-182 et les textes sont plus tristes. La musique de Box Car Racer ressemble en fait beaucoup à l'album éponyme "Blink-182".

On peut donc penser que "Box Car Racer" est un album d'essai. Tom et Travis ont voulu essayer de faire de la musique triste et mélancolique, mais sans vouloir l'associer directement à Blink-182. Ils ont donc créé un second groupe, juste le temps de composer un album "de transition".

Voyant le succès de Box Car Racer, nos deux protagonistes ont décidé de continuer dans cette voie mais cette fois-ci par l'intermédiaire de Blink-182 (plus connu).

Maintenant que l'album "Blink-182" est sorti et que le groupe s'est séparé on peut être sûr que Box Car Racer est un projet achevé...

Le nom du groupe provient du bombardier B-29, qui largua une bombe atomique sur Nagasaki, au Japon. Le nom de l'avion était "Bockscar". Tom a dit dans une interview qu'il avait déjà vu ce nom mal écrit en "Boxcar", et qu'il souhaitait un nom de groupe a 3 mots, d'où provient donc Box Car Racer

Membres du groupe :

Tom Delonge : Chant, guitare et piano, actuellement chanteur et guitariste d'Angels And Airwaves.
David James Kennedy : Guitare, actuellement guitariste d'Angels And Airwaves
Anthony Celestino : Basse
Travis Barker : Batterie, actuellement batteur de +44.

  • Titre : There Is
  • Album : Boxcar Racer
  • Année : 2002

Paroles :

This vacations useless, these white pills aren't kind
I've given a lot of thought on this thirteen hour drive
I miss the grinded concrete where we sat past eight or nine
And slowly finished laughing in the glow of our headlights
I've given a lot of thought to the nights we used to have
The days have come and gone, our lives went by so fast
I faintly remember breathing, on your bedroom floor
Where i laid and told you, but you swear you love me more

Do you care if I, don't know what to say
Will you sleep tonight, or will you think of me
Will I shake this off, pretend it's all okay
That there's someone out there, who feels just like me
There is ...

Those notes you wrote me, i've kept them all
I've given a lot of thought of how to write you back this fall
With every single letter, and every single word
There will be a hidden message, about a boy that loves a girl

Do you care if I, don't know what to say
Will you sleep tonight, or will you think of me
Will I shake this off, pretend it's all okay
That there's someone out there, who feels just like me
There is ...

Do you care if I, don't know what to say
Will you sleep tonight, or will you think of me
Will I shake this off, pretend it's all okay
That there's someone out there, who feels just like me
Do you care if I, don't know what to say
Will you sleep tonight, or will you think of me
Will I shake this off, pretend it's all okay
That there's someone out there, who feels just like me
There is ...

  • Titre : Watch The World
  • Album : Boxcar Racer
  • Année : 2002

Paroles :

I watched the smoke
As it grew darker
And blew up through the roof
I watched the fad
Who sobbed in panic
As the fire grew
I saw Virginia
Get rid of langly, and it's secrets too
I held your hand
And sat there knowing
That we'd make it through
I saw this man
Dispose of hunger
And soap opera too
I saw this field
That grew perfection
Full of things you do
I saw this box
Get rid of heartache
And cure cancer too
When I awoke
I sat there hoping
This is what we'll do
If we can
We will leave our letter and this song, for you
We'll write, once a day
And float it through the sea, to you
We'll regret, all those things we thought of but didn't ever do
If we can, we will leave our letter and this song, for you
And we'll write, once a day
And float it through the sea, to you
We'll regret, all those things we thought of but didn't ever do
When the sky, seems to clear
Who will then be left, but a few, me and you

  • Titre : Cat Like Thief
  • Album : Boxcar Racer
  • Année : 2002

Paroles :

I fell down a gutter, but I cant complain
Another false step could drive me insane
All I got myself here, to blame so
I shake off the seat and I, start again
Oh no I said I want to go back
But I cant win the shit, and I'm gonna stay on track
Yeah, make a deal like that
I keep my head up, but I never react

I wrote it down a list a month ago
Sixteen chapters of one thing you've blown
She best thing yet to help you through and through
That she was i feel her more than you

Don't leave
Don't leave her

I get up, just to get knocked back down
I sit up, just to get knocked all around
I wanna say something, but your out of town
I don't wannna have another, short down
Say stand up (hey, yo) lets make it clear
Follow you home (no) you were not there
You saw him comin (jump) you disappear
Home alone every night, seems so clear
You think you see me here, all along
Got my crew comin now, one by one
Two by two, three by three
Four by four, lets do some more

Call me back, when word is that she's gone
Cat like thief, she stole air from my lungs
Leave me standing on this lonely grave
I dug it out incase she turns away

Don't leave
Don't leave her
Don't leave
Don't leave her

You think seen it, all along
Got my crew comin, one by one
Two by two, three by three
Four by four, lets do some more

Don't leave
Don't leave her
Don't leave
Don't leave her
Don't leave
Don't leave her
Don't leave

Paroles :

Caught off guard
All worked up
The air is as dark and cold as night
Let me go
I'm not done
I swear i'll take just one lifetime and i

I won't lie
I won't sin
Maybe i don't wanna go
Can't you wait
Maybe i don't wanna go

I should've asked
I could've helped
At least a fucking 1,000 times before
Will this offer get me in
Or does this prove that they gave more and i

I won't lie
I won't sin
Maybe i don't wanna go
Can't you wait
Maybe i don't wanna go

And i
I won't lie
I won't sin
Maybe i don't wanna go
Can't you wait
Maybe i don't wanna go

And i
I won't lie
I won't sin
Maybe i don't wanna go
Can't you wait
Maybe i don't wanna go
