4) Mitchell is punk rock band from Grand Rapids, Michigan. Influenced by classic punk bands like The Sex Pistols, Dead Kennedys, Black Flag and The Misfits, Mitchell rose from the ashes of Paul Goodno and Dustin Anderson's 2-man punk/metal band super*room*sedative. Looking for a fuller sound and a way to jam live, Dustin and Paul recruited their old college friend Jay Kincer to play bass. During the initial jam the trio clicked and recorded a cover of the Sex Pistols classic Holidays In The Sun. Feeling good about the track and wanting to jam more the trio began to work on tracks for a full length album. After a few months of writing and jamming, the boys set up shop in Dustin's home studio and laid down the foundation for their debut Small Mouth Bass. Over the next few years the boys would record several more albums and play an aggressive live show schedule around western Michigan building a loyal fan base. Mitchell is a true punk rock band. Nothing fancy, just a case of PBR, some MST3K movies and a stack of amps. Current members are Dustin Anderson: Vox/Guitar, Jay Kincer: Bass/Vox, Paul Goodno: Drums/Vox.

J'ai beau me dire que tout s'arrange et que tout ira mieux demain
Je voudrais tant que tu deviennes un ange
Mais tu t'en moques et tu me tiens
Notre Amour ne tourne pas rond, non, non, non, non
J'ai eu tort de t'aimer, maintenant tout est raté
Je t'ai tout donné en ce monde, tout ce que tu sais vient de moi
Tu m'as remis une de tes mèches blondes
En disant "Souvenir pour toi"

Notre Amour ne tourne pas rond, non, non, non, non
J'ai eu tort de t'aimer, maintenant tout est raté

Je sens en moi une chose étrange, je sens le danger qui revient
Il va falloir que tout cela change, je ne suis pas Barbe-Bleue pour rien
Notre Amour ne tourne pas rond, non, non, non, non
J'ai eu tort de t'aimer, maintenant tout est raté

Je n'peux pas supporter que Barbe-Bleue soit lésé
Barbe-Bleue voulait t'aimer, tant pis pour toi, c'est raté.
