A screamo/post-hardcore band from Orange County, California. The original lead singer, Anthony Green, left the band in early 2004 to pursue his new project Circa Survive in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Anthony was replaced by Cove. As of early fall 2004, Saosin has begun touring and working on their follow-up to the Translating The Name EP.
I love the band Saosin. The lyric "Don't say that I'm the one you want to lose" really gets to me.
The californian hardcore, amazing voice, beautiful drumming, and it also is an old chinese proverb "Small heart" the fathers used to tell their sons to keep their heart small and don't get attached to things because you can lose them anytime.
here is a quote from former singer Anthony:
"It’s pronounced SAY-OCEAN. And it’s a Chinese proverb from the 15th and 16th centuries. It means “small heart”. Fathers used to marry off their youngest son's for money and used to tell them that they weren’t marrying for love, that their wife doesn’t matter. She could die at anytime so don’t get attached. They had to love with caution and raise their sons to be cold and unfeeling as well. I found it in the 8th grade and loved it, I used to name all my old bands that and write songs about it."
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murdererused a serrated blade.
When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
