Limp Bizkit is an American rap rock band from Jacksonville,
Florida. Their lineup consists of Fred Durst (lead vocals), Sam
Rivers (bass, backing vocals), John
Otto (drums, percussion), DJ Lethal (turntables), and Wes
Borland (guitars, vocals). Their music is marked by Durst's
angry vocal delivery and Borland's sonic experimentation. Borland's elaborate
visual appearance, which includes face and body paint, masks and uniforms, also
plays a large role in the band's live shows. The band
has been nominated for three Grammy
Awards, sold 40 million records worldwide, and won
several other awards.
Formed in 1994, Limp Bizkit became popular
playing in the Jacksonville underground
music scene in the late 1990s, and signed
with Flip
Records, a subsidiary of Interscope,
which released their debut album, Three Dollar Bill, Y'all (1997). The
band achieved mainstream success with their second and third studio albums, Significant Other (1999) and Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored
Water (2000), although this success was
marred by a series of controversies surrounding their performances at Woodstock '99 and the 2001 Big Day
Out festival.
Borland left the group in 2001, but Durst,
Rivers, Otto and Lethal continued to record and tour with guitarist Mike
Smith. Following the release of their album, Results May Vary (2003), Borland rejoined the band and recorded The Unquestionable Truth (Part 1) (2005) with Durst, Rivers, Lethal and drummer Sammy Siegler before entering a hiatus. In 2009, the band reunited with Borland
playing guitar and began touring, culminating with the recording of the álbum Gold Cobra (2011), after which they left Interscope and later signed with Cash
Money Records, but DJ Lethal quit the band
soon after before returning in 2018. As of November 2018 the band is still
recording their sixth studio album, Stampede of the Disco Elephants.
Results May Vary is the fourth studio album by American rap rock band Limp Bizkit,
released on September 23, 2003, through Flip and Interscope
Records. It was the band's only release under the
sole-leadership of vocalista Fred Durst after the temporary departure of guitarist Wes Borland,
who left in 2001. Snot guitarist
Mike
Smith was initially brought in to replace
Borland, although the band's falling-out with Smith later led to his departure,
with much of the material recorded with him being discarded from the final
release. Durst
and a number of guests ended up handling the majority of the album's guitar work.
The album differed from Limp Bizkit's
established sound up until that point; although the album still featured
elements of hip hop and nu metal,
it also branched out into other musical styles, including alternative rock,
acoustic,
funk,
and jazz. It also featured less rapping and
more introspective lyrics related to heartbreak, bullying, and self-pity. An
alleged affair with Britney Spears by Durst (denied by Spears) during collaborating sessions for her
2003 album In the Zone and resulting rejection by Spears was cited as an inspiration for
some of the album's material as well. To promote the album, music videos featuring high-profile actors were created for "Eat You Alive"
and a cover of The Who's "Behind Blue Eyes";
the former featuring Thora Birch and Bill Paxton and the latter featuring Halle
Berry.
Upon its release, Results
May Vary peaked at number 3 on the US Billboard 200, selling at least 325,000
copies in its first week of sales. While the album still eventually went platinum, both the debut and
lifetime sales were still well below prior albums Significant Other (1999) and Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored
Water (2000). Results May Vary sold at least 1.3 million copies in the
United States and received mainly negative critical reception as well. Results
May Vary was Limp Bizkit's last studio album released before they went on
hiatus for three years, starting from 2006 to 2009.
When I reminisce ignorance
was bliss,
Back in the days where the magic exist
Never be the same as it was, 'cuz the way it was
Just another day in the maze of a myth
Had a lot of fun living life on the run,
Never had a chance to pause to get a better glance
Everything was free and everything was fast
Never even thought it wouldn't last
When you got the mind of a man in the middle
Life is just a big fat riddle, so figure it out
Always thinking that you know
Every little thing there is to know
But you don't really know, ya know?
It's like love, some people get it
For some it's just a glove that just never fitted
For me it's just a pain in the ass
But i'm addicted to the taste of hopin' it could last
Another day another
night inside a lonely world
Another game another fight inside a lonely world
Another wrong another right inside a lonely world
Such a lonely world, such a lonely world
Who's the man (the man in the middle) x4
Maybe I'm a target
for people that are bitter
At least I can say that I've never been a quitter
I remember high school, man I hated high school
It was like prison with bullies always putting me down
Just a little skater boy they could pick on
I learned to forgive'em, now I got the balls they can lick on
I loved sneakin' out when my mom was asleep
With my gothic girlfriend makin' love in the creek
With the mind of a man in the middle
It could be the end of the world as we know it
Still I never want it all, and I never want it now
I just want a cruise, if i lose then I'll figure it out
How the times flies, even with the blink of an eye
When you're young you absorb like a sponge in disguise
Then you get a little older and gather your thoughts
It's amazing what you learn
When you've never been taught, ya know?
Another day another
night inside a lonely world
Another game another fight inside a lonely world
Another wrong another right inside a lonely world
Such a lonely world, such a lonely world
Who's the man (the man in the middle) x4
No matter how hard I
can try inside a lonely world
No one can hear me when I cry inside a lonely world
I'll never know the reasons why I'm inside a lonely world
Such a lonely world (such a lonely world)
Another day another
night inside a lonely world
Another game another fight inside a lonely world
Another wrong another right inside a lonely world
Such a lonely world, such a lonely world
Who's the man (the man in the middle) x4
