Tenacious D Lyrics

    ------ About the song Tribute performed by Tenacious D

I agree with stie. Ok, it doesn't matter whats what really, this is a great song. Tenaciuos D are excellent at creating songs that actually take the piss out of Rock and sound as good as if not better than many Rock groups! It is of general opinion, including mine that this song is a tribute to 'Stairway to heaven'which is judged to be the greatest song in the World (it's just a matter of opinion). When they say they couldn't remember the greatest song in the World may simply refer to the fact that under pressure/fear (the beast had threatened to eat their souls)they simply forgot it therefore played the first thing that came into their heads (a tribute).

may i say to the second replier that you have some bad grammar and tenacious D was not referring to every good song in the world, in my opinion rap music is bad and i personally like rock but if you are going to say that there referring to every good song in the world you can go fuck yourself your a little bitch who complains about this. Tenacious D were referring to there song that they sang on one faithful night. there the hero's of our past and future, not so come at me bro.

    ------ About the song Jesus Ranch performed by Tenacious D

This really is an amazing song :) shown to me by my Christian boyfriend who LOVES it... I am also Christian and I feel it's just a fun song, by a pretty rad band :) life's too short to get touchy about such petty issues ^_^ and besides if you're that bothered about it you really haven't understood God properly at all.

    ------ About the song Tribute performed by Tenacious D

Some of you state that this song is about "stairway to heaven" but according to the lyrics that is wrong, even though in some way this song is a tribute to it since they in the long version have a guitar solo from "stairway to heaven". Therefor this song is a tribute to at least 2 songs, where one of them is "stairway to heaven"

But in the lyrics they also state "Just a matter of opinion." in the last verse. Then this song might also mean that the greatest song in the world is whatever song you think is the greatest song in the world, as long as it's not this song or "stairway to heaven" since they are excluded through the lyrics saying "the song we sang on that fateful night it didn't actually sound".

U all got it wrong.
This song is just a tribute nd they [tanasious d] just want 2 say dat every song made is the greatest song.
They just explained it through the song.
1st they just tried 2 think by looking at each other bt they could not remember the best song in the world so they sang their own song as it came 2 their heads at first bt in the middle they say it is just a 'tribute' for all the songs ever made nd afterwards they chase the devil by saying they are men but rock.
And then they finally chase the devil by mocking him.
Thats it

"the d f****** owns" is wrong. In The original version of "Tribute" by Tenacious D, from the band's self-titled show on HBO. As seen here, on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BH35ahbWO_E, at 6.03, kyle plays "Starway to Heaven".

    ------ About the song Tribute performed by Tenacious D

You are all wrong, Tribute cannot possible be about the movie because the movie was made after the song. I don't think that it was actually based off of any song at all but was just simply created or they had thought of a great song previously but somehow forgot it.

Tribute references to 'We are the D/Beelzeboss' in The pick of destiny film, they play the song and defeat the devil, but not with the song, Jack black deflects the devils magic back at him with his guitar, however at the end of the film, Jack black and Kyle misinterpret that they defeated the devil with their rock, and state it must have been the best song ever coz it beat the devil, but they can't remember it.

Stop arguing about it. No need to get angry about other people's opinions. This is mine:

They managed to beat the Devil at the rock-off, so they believe they played the best song in the world, Beelzeboss. But, according to the Devil, they lost, but the Devil's lightning bounced off JB's guitar and he was sent back to Hell.

After the credits, where they smoke the "Bong of Destiny" they cannot remember the "best song in the world" so they sing about it in tribute.

There is no best song in the world. They believe it was Beelzeboss, but they lost with Beelzeboss.

    ------ About the song The history of Tenacious D performed by Tenacious D

its CUTLASS supreme not CUTLET supreme. Cutlass Supreme is the type of car that they drive in the movie so I'm pretty sure that's what they're referring to. I don't see what cutlet could mean, so I think I'm right.
