But as you said they don't listen to the lyrics the just i don't know how to explain.I don't like such peopletell me about it, I can't stand ppl who doesn't listen to the lyrics of songs...aka...the ppl who actually enjoy "shake your booty" crap...it's just nuts...and I also find it annoying when ppl ask me what music I like and I reply with finnish bands and they look at me like big and I say HIM and they go: " HIm yeah, HIM are nice" and I sooo know that they only like Join Me cause that's the one song they've heard, apart from the DL album...agh...to me HIM is 80% lyrics and 20% the rest...the ones who never listened to their lyrics and who doesn't feel what the lyrics mean shouldn't be allowed to say they like HIM....but hey...that's just me thinking
And yes, people have called the heartagram a bamagram to me before. I used to hate Bam with every fiber of my being. Then I realized he's a fan just like me, Valo shared the rights of the heartagram with him, and being a fan he's slapping the heartagram everywhere to get the word out about the band. I met him in an airport in Chicago and asked him about it, and he said "yeah, it's for a great band from Finland called..." and I finished his sentence. lol. He's telling people about the band, and I respect that. Hell I do the same thing with the street team, I'm just not a celebrity, lol.
hehe
Second, HIM never needed Bam to be a quite important Rock band in Europe... HIM's European success is quite prior to any involvement by Bam with the band... I feel that it's important to clarify that the fans HIM won with Bam were mostly outside Europe because the big popularity "explosion" of the band in Europe was with 'Razorblade Romance' and Bam's image was not associated with the band at that time.
