The Adolescents, Social Distortion, Agent Orange and several other local early punk rock pioneers were the breeding ground from which DI was born. DI branded their own form of punk rock that complemented the Orange County Punk scene in sound and attitude. DI was thrown to the forefront after the band performed "Richard Hung Himself" with the original line up that recorded the bands first EP in the 1984 movie, "Suburbia", directed by Penelope Spheeris who's previous production was "Decline of Western Civilization." When the band went through a line up change after the first EP titled Team Goon, members of emerging Fullerton band Almost 21 became the backbone for the sound that DI is known for today. During that line up change, front man Casey Royer known for his cutting and outrageous social commentary through humor is joined by Rikk Agnew of The Adolescents on guitar. Rikk brought to DI a handful of songs written in previous years, such as "Falling Out" and "OC Life" which were featured on Rikk Agnew's solo album, "All By Myself" and were made wildly popular though Casey Royer's style and personality. Over the many years that DI has been on the scene, the band has went though a lot of line up changes that has made DI a very incestuous family of players. Most of the former and present members were all part of the Fullerton and north Orange County Punk scene which proved to be the key ingredient to keeping the personality that makes DI what it is. DI has toured extensively throughout North America and Europe, and everywhere they performed DI left the audience not wanting the show to be over. The current line, which many have stated could very well be the hardest hitting and most cohesive line up ever, made up of Casey Royer on vocals, brothers Eddie and Joey Tatar as the rhythm unit of bass and drums, Chickenhead on rhythm guitar and brought together by lead guitarist Clinton Calton.
DI is proud to bring you the band’s 8th release, “On The Western Front”.

Well, I got somethin' to tell ya, baby
You can't do
You can't love me
An some other man, too

But you don't love me that way
You don't love me that way
You don't love me that way, babe
An I don't care what you do, now

Well, I met a old lady
Wit' 'er face right full of frowns
She lovely in the front
But she's all broke down behind

She don't love me that way
You don't love me that way
You don't love me that way, babe
An I don't care what you do, now

Now, if the river was rich
An I was a divin' duck
I'd dive on the bottom
Never would come up

'Cause she don't love me that way
She don't love me that way
You don't love me that way, babe
But I don't care what you do, now

Now, the corn's gon' shine
In my backdoor someday
The winds gonna rise
An blow my blues away

'Cause she don't love me that way
You don't love me that way
You don't love me that way, baby
An I don't care what you do, now

Chile, I got somethin' baby
I wanna say to you
Ain't none a-yo' bad treatment
I want no way you do

But you don't love me that way, now
You don't love me that way
You don't love me that way, babe
An I don't care what you do, now

You made plenty money, nineteen twenty two
You let these cats make a fool of you

Now, you don't love me that way
You don't love me that way




You don't love me that way, babe
An I don't care what you do, now

Overall Meaning

The song "She Don't Love Me That Way" by D.I. is a bluesy tune that speaks to the inevitability of lost love. The lyrics suggest a man who is coming to the realization that his partner's affections are no longer his alone. He warns her that she cannot love him and another man at the same time, but acknowledges that she doesn't love him the way she used to. He speaks of meeting an old lady who once appeared lovely but is now "all broke down behind," a metaphor for his relationship with his lover. He proclaims that he does not care what she does anymore because he is resigned to the fact that things are not what they once were.


The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "You don't love me that way," emphasizing the idea that the man feels the love in the relationship has diminished, while the final verse speaks of letting go of negativity and moving on to brighter days. The lyrics are straightforward and poignant in their simplicity, capturing the essence of a relationship that has run its course.

The fact that Sonic is laughing while he's trying to "apologize" makes this scene feel more authentic.

Lynk

@Zack's Dumb Stuff Alfred is the ultimate MVP in the whole vid

Zack's Dumb Stuff

I think the fact that Alfred manages to completely stay in tone and not laugh a single bit is just amazing

Little Moth

Ironically because his apology is made less authentic
