[MAJOR METAL]

Here are the lyrics

The Man I Didn't Know (S. Weiland)
Step out on the pouring rain
Left out on the evening train
I was just a little boy
thinking about the memories
father that you used to be

San Jose is a sun-drenched town
Your old truck with the windows rolled down
Jerry Jeff riding high on the radio
I wanna know why you had to go

Took a plane to California yeah
End of summer 1970's
Telling you that you're the man
that taught me how to sing
Why did you go
Leave me so young..so young..so young

Tell me things that I wanna know
Now I'm a man with a family of my own
Why'd you go and leave me in the cold
with the face in the mirror of the man I didn't know

In the desert where the warm wind blows
where'd you go when I was so alone
Those California nights would be so cold
I wanna know the man I didn't know

Now I'm the one with the radio song
The wife and kids that tell me what's wrong
I need the man in my life
who made me who I am
I don't want to lose you again

Took a plane to California yeah
End of summer 1970's
Telling you that you're the man
that taught me how to sing
Why did you go
Leave me so young.. so long.. so young

Tell me things that I wanna know
Now I'm a man with a family of my own
Why'd you go and leave me in the cold
with the face in the mirror of the man I didn't know

In the desert where the warm wind blows
where d'you go when I was so alone
Those California nights can be so cold
I wanna know the man I didn't know

Go...

(guitar solo)

Tell me things that I wanna know
Now I'm a man with a family of my own
Why'd you go and leave me in the cold
with the face in the mirror of the man I didn't know

In the desert where the warm wind blows
where'd you go when I was so alone
Those California nights can be so cold
I wanna know the man I didn't know

I wanna know

The man I didn't know.

Why because he is so thin?.

For the past week i have been starting my day off with this song, here is the MP3 if anyone is interested http://belowempty.com/downloads.php

[Droog]

OK so it sounds like he is doing an impression of David Bowie doing an impression of Neal Diamond. I think Weiland is a great vocalist but I don't think I care for his taste as a solo musician. Thus far STP or nothing for me on the Scott Weiland front.

[tplyons]

I like it. Totally different direction.

[Droog]

I don't think its a totally different direction entirely. I really think that is the kind of tunes that Weiland digs. You can hear him dip into in the later STP. The guy can sing.

[MAJOR METAL]

Yeah i really like the diversity of STP and Scotts ability to go in other directions vocaly.

[Mon Rominee]

Did anyone enjoy his first solo record? There were some nice moments on that (excluding Barbarella...crap song)

Jimmy was a stimulator was really great.

Yeah their was really trippy kind of stuff on it, i am hoping he does another solo record before and VR one.

[DigMe]

I dug some of the stuff from his first solo album. It has never really in regular rotation for me though.

On a side note: Velvet Revolver cancelled the concert here in Iceland
