Obsession is an understatement.
As you may, or may not have noticed, and as i think quite a few people i know do not know that Good Charlotte is my favourite band and have been since 2002(thats like 5 years). When i got my first Good Charlotte CD. Yeah, i know its not their first album and yeah i havent been a fan since the start, but that doesnt make me any less of a fan than some people might say. Five years is a long time to be dedicated to one group of people who make amazing and inspiring music. Throughout those 5 years, ive changed ALOT especially my music taste. Ive moved on from listening to Simple Plan and Green Day, but i stuck with Good Charlotte, I now listen to stuff like Cradle Of Filth, Wednesday 13 and Rammstein. Every single one of their songs, i love. They have pretty much saved me from becoming one of those girls i hate. But you never know, i might have latched on to some other rock band. I dont think, having like a million t-shirts, badges, stickers or anything else you may have GC on makes you more of a fan than anyone else who truely loves their music and knows every word, can sing them without even thinking. Its about the music, not the t-shirts and how much of a "hardcore fan" you are. I remember the first time i saw them live, was the most amazing experience of my life, yet. To see them in the flesh and right in front of me singing the songs that i had spent hours and hours listening to for years, was just great. When i bought my ticket, it made me so happy that i cried when buying it and the person selling it, looked at me strange, But i didnt care, all i cared about was that i was going to see GOOD CHARLOTTE live. Never have i felt so strongly towards one band, been so obsessed and wanted to know everything i could about them. It angers me how GC fans are labeled "posers", What is a poser? I think a poser is someone who trys to copy people to be cool, not someone who loves a genuine band that i know alot of people dont like. I am proud to say i am a Good Charlotte fan and i dont care what other people think of them, I love their music, and them as people and thats pretty much all that matters. I cant ever imagining myself not loving Good Charlotte, i think even when i become older, there will always be that memory of them, and how they have changed and had a small part in who i am today. If i could tell them anything, it would be to thank them for having such brilliant minds to create such great music that has inspired so many people all over the world. I love them so much! ar!
