The band originally formed as Pezz in 1993, when vocalist Ben Kowalewicz, guitarist Ian D'Sa, bassist Jon Gallant, and drummer Aaron Solowoniuk, met at the same high school in Streetsville, Ontario. They released a few independent recordings and caught the attention of Juno-nominated producer Brad "Merlin" Nelson, with whom a full-length CD, "Watoosh," was recorded in 1998. After toiling in indie rock obscurity and many repeated cycles through the Toronto club circuit, the quartet changed its name to "Billy Talent" in late 1999 after a character ("Billy Tallent") in Bruce McDonald's film adaptation of Michael Turner's 1993 book "Hard Core Logo". The change was also a reflection of the band's sound and attitude: aggressive emotional punk rock. With the goal of crafting memora More... (Submit New Billy Talent Lyrics) (Submit New Billy Talent Lyrics) Review about Billy Talent hey locke | Reviewer: Joe ------ About the song Devil In A Midnight Mass performed by Billy Talent i thought i was one of the only ppl that liked death metal and this band lol this song is awesome but its missing the second verse either way i love this song but id have to say cannibal corpse is better XD How Ironic | Reviewer: The Fan ------ About the song Diamond On A Landmine performed by Billy Talent Some things in this song just make me wanna give up right now. The whole part about "im just a puppet, she pulls my strings" hit pretty close to home. since I am into the whole femdom scene anyways. And it just makes me sad to think about really loving someone, and willing to do anything for them, and they just hate you. Thats why I think it is so sad and Ironic how he would never let her go if the ice cracked, even if that meant he might die as well. Dying for someone who hates you. Makes me want to cry with frustration. this hits me | Reviewer: woutor2 ------ About the song Surrender performed by Billy Talent this song hits me deep inside i same just overcame me i always loved someone but she didnt love me whe are now still friends but no more then that (just like anonymous under me) "snik" *wenks a tear away* rock on billy talent! P.S.: billy talent always was my favorite band but this is the best song of them wow hello reality | Reviewer: punkrocker ------ About the song Surrender performed by Billy Talent wow, this song just hit me like a brick, it tottaly explains how i feel still, even though its not happining. i tottaly understand because i know i would do anything for this guy and i had a small hope that it would work out for us and yesterday i found out he's hooking up with another girl, he sounds crazy about her but everything in me just shattered and i don't know how to pick up the peices. I know that im still going to let him cheat off my answers and help him with his essays because even though we can't be any more than just friends, it a friendship i don't want to lose. ps. if anyone knows some more songs like this please let me know Wow guys | Reviewer: Riley ------ About the song The Ex performed by Billy Talent I can see why a lot of people posting here are so upset, but sometimes breakups aren't just horrible things where one person betrays the other. Saying that you would give your life for her is probably the least attractive thing you can do. Don't be her bitch. Find someone new. Girls want a man in their life, not a whimpy girlfriend who will surrender their balls on command. Think about it. If you can't stand up for yourself, how could you ever stand up for them? Great song! | Reviewer: anonymous ------ About the song Nothing to Lose performed by Billy Talent I remember when this song came out like 5 years ago, I had it on my ipod and I used to listen to it all the time at break and in class. It helped me through so much crap in school, from grade 5 to grade 8 I was bullied and made fun of because I never fit in with the "rich" kids. By the end of grade 8 I was having suicidal thoughts, I was so used to the lifestyle I knew nothing else. For grade 9 I moved with my mom to a smaller town she grew up in, I became friends with lots of people, 4 of which are now my best friends and I hang out with daily. I'm glad I never did something suicidal, because there is always something different out there you just need to find it. Awesome song billy talent helped me through alot! america is spoiled wrong | Reviewer: minas ------ About the song River Below performed by Billy Talent you guys r trucking retarded. let me start with this.... how can you worry about what party you are gonna go 2, or what person your gonna go date, when there are thousands of people dying everyday. America is so spoiled we dun even no it. its all about this... were trying so hard to do the right thing, that when knowone else is because its not the "cool" thing to do, we go mad because the so called "normal" people try to convince the world that we're the crazy ones. so call us crazyt cuz we care so much about the unjustices, and there are many, in this world, but we cant do anything about it, but we wont stop trying. so you might be right about the crazy thing, but do you think he wants to be crazy? if so than i think your fuckin crazy..... bitch Like many of you it relates to me | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Surrender performed by Billy Talent This band was mine and a girl i loved favorite band. We never dated because we were shy and now she moved long away. i wish i told her more than anything or go back 2 years. This song and its lyrics make me want to cry. General Topic/ My Oppinion | Reviewer: T34GU3xD ------ About the song The Navy Song performed by Billy Talent The song is generally about someone's view on a military ship that was shot down while he was trying to save it and everyone on it died. But one little problem with my oppinion is the first verse/stanza. It sounds like the "you" and "her" words in the song are ship itself. 1, because he was trying to save her, and 2, because what else would you do when your on a ship in the rain but hold on to something. If you think im wrong please email me back, i like to hear others oppinions. AMAZING SONG BTW. RIP brave warriors of the sea and thank you dad for living through it to make me be. Yea, that rhymed xD freakin awsome | Reviewer: Creepers ------ About the song This Is How It Goes performed by Billy Talent Billy Talent is a better band best to listin to live. I would much rather listin to "666" over the studio. They are a live band and I love watching them perform they are awsome... We need to get them more recognition in the states though GO BILLY TALENT | Reviewer: punkrocker ------ About the song Turn Your Back performed by Billy Talent once again, another kick ass song by billy talent, tottaly spot on. im so glad for my guy friend for getting way more into billy talent tottaly killer band. and lets hear it for canada :) lol keep killin it BT review was done on a PSP, thats why a few words are cut off | Reviewer: Tucker ------ About the song Red Flag performed by Billy Talent People on the internet need to learn how to spell, if you want to be respected as someone who passed grade 4 IMO. Now that Ive said that, I would just like to tell everyone that when you argue with trolls, they win. To the small percent of ignorant (matt) 11 year old dumbasses (matt), ask your teachers about what happened when the USA tried to invade Canada. The song is one of the few Billy Talent songs I actually like. BTW, I Have nothing against the USA, and as a Canadian, I admire most Americans passion GO BILLY TALENT | Reviewer: punkrocker ------ About the song River Below performed by Billy Talent kay ya tottaly agreein with Church (RvB)on the whole name of the band thing, it makes sense that people would be confused and its not the end of the world if someone thinks that, i didnt noe that either when i first started listing to them and besides, some people mite think that its the lead singers name (which it is not) but hey now they no that and like church said, its not the end of the world, its not the first time someone has made this mistake and it sure as hell wont be the last so lets shut up and get on with our lives sorry bout the novel there lol rockout | Reviewer: bryan ------ About the song Fallen Leaves performed by Billy Talent cool awesome video this is like the 23rd time i sing this music lol xd cause its cool im goin to play runescape lol im only lvl 46 my borther is lvl 74 and my other brother is lvl 87 he is serious hes username is mnd freak1 lol bye bye cool amazing video Awesome | Reviewer: Hannah ------ About the song Living In The Shadows performed by Billy Talent Billy Talent is a punk band...not a rock band... Sorry. They have such good songs! <3 <3 <3 <3 Anyone who hates them should be shot in the back...not really....maybe with just a paintball gun...XDDD Simply amazing... | Reviewer: Clarkyboy ------ About the song Fallen Leaves performed by Billy Talent I loved this song the second i heard it, and cant believe anyone can be so narrow minded and stupid as to say this song is crap etc. So heres a big FUCK YOU to anyone like ( i might as well) george, who cant keep his opinions to himself because he needs the world to know of his sad, shitty existence. Anywayz... Awsome song xD reply | Reviewer: Teal ------ About the song River Below performed by Billy Talent reply to" Not that anyone cares, but to my mind it sounds like a guy who is crazy, and wants to be known for something. And he's gonna kill someone, and for that everyone will know him 'you'll all know my name' He wants people to know him. 'I'll take all the blame the front [page and the FAME]" The media will be all over him. I'll prob/ way off base... well it isnt that he IS insane or so much the fame, but to be known. he believes himself perfectly sane, hence why it says everyone will think hes crazy. its more about the fact he did everything right, he was a working man, he wasnt extrodinary in any way, he did what he needed to do just like we are all told and then he ended up alone and doing nothing atall, he was alone, he was going to probly live that way for ever, and he couldnt stand it. this would make people see he was somthing more then this invisiable working man. not everyone who kills is insane... Happiness and Disaster | Reviewer: The Sorrowful Heart ------ About the song Surrender performed by Billy Talent This isn't just another review about how it relates to my life. I've lived this song my whole life. To me, dating isn't about a good time, or a fun fling. It's about searching for a marriage parter, the beginning of courtship. I vowed never to date until 18, and yet by that time it was too late for me. The woman of my choosing has chosen another, not surprisingly, but rather than wallow in sorrow, I decided to stand behind her in every decision she makes. I will wait in line for eternity if I must, 'playing the referee.' I even attended the same private university so that she'd always have a good friend, someone to turn to when things are bad. Her other friends abandon her when she needs them most, and so she comes to me. However, I doubt that I'll ever be more than the crutch, but I can be content in that, for now. Know this, however, that even though she dates another, I will NEVER actively or passively seek to end a relationship, even if there were possible gains. When she tells me things that she would only tell her closest friend, things like a proposal fantasy, how she wants romance, or what she wants in love, I respond as a friend should, meanwhile knowing all the while that I am the person she speaks of. However, I will not voice these words. Instead, if I could, I would contact the boyfriend to tell him her confessions, so that he could make her happy, for that is all I desire. Am I a hopeless romantic? Perhaps I am. For now, I feel the words of this song resonating in my heart, it's sorrowful lyrics and harmonies echoing inside me, offering some respite from the unrequited love that resonates within my soul. What Ben said about this song | Reviewer: toothy =] ------ About the song Perfect World performed by Billy Talent For anyone who doesn't know, for example they may have just discovered Billy Talent, Ben Kowalewicz is the singer of the band. In an interview Ben was talking about the meaning of this song. He wrote it about his girlfriend who cheated on him while he was away on tour with the band. He came back home to find a room full of boxes and his girlfriend said "I'm seeing someone else, it's over between us". The reason for the chorus: "In a perfect world… her face would not exist In a perfect world… a broken heart is fixed In a perfect world… I’d see no therapist In a perfect world… this wouldn’t make me sick" Is because Ben's heart was broken by his girlfriend... Poor Ben... Great song | Reviewer: magma9495 ------ About the song Red Flag performed by Billy Talent I'm not canidian but I love this song and band. Nothing wrong with canada. Wish I could actually go there, would be a nice vacation from USA. Anyway, doesn't it sound like he's saying "the red flag WOMEN" not "red flag WARNING"? just what I think ;P You could review the artist/band Billy Talent in Biography page You could review Billy Talent album by visiting Albums page and selecting an album You could review Billy Talent song by clicking the song which you like  Download "Billy Talent" Music | |
