Bullet

A bullet is a projectile propelled by a firearm, sling, slingshot, or air gun. Bullets do not normally contain explosives, but damage the intended target by impact and penetration. The word "bullet" is sometimes colloquially used to refer to ammunition in general, or to a cartridge, which is a combination of the bullet, case/shell, powder, and primer. This use of 'bullet', when 'cartridge' is intended, leads to confusion when the components of a cartridge are discussed or intended.

Bullets fired from slings, slingshots, and many airguns (including BB guns) travel well below the speed of sound (about 343 m/s or 1126 ft/s in dry air at 20 °C or 68 °F). Low-power handguns have muzzle velocities generally less than the speed of sound (subsonic), while bullets fired from high-power handguns (such as a .44 Magnum) and from rifles have an initial speed faster than the speed of sound, meaning they are supersonic and thus can travel a substantial distance and even hit a target before a nearby observer hears the "bang" of the shot. Bullet speed through air depends on a number of factors such as barometric pressure, humidity, air temperature, and wind speed.

Bullets (Creed song)

"Bullets" is the second single from Creed's third album, Weathered. It is regarded as the heaviest single of the band.

Meaning

"Bullets" departs heavily from the previously established "anthemic rock" sound heard throughout most of Creed's recent singles leading up to Weathered. The song was written during a period of difficulty for the band where they were forced to dismiss Brian Marshall from the band for comments he made on a radio show. There are currently two versions. Some believe that Marshall defended Scott Stapp in response to Fred Durst from Limp Bizkit's criticisms on a radio show. Most, however, believe that Marshall was dismissed due to his criticism of Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder, not Fred Durst. According to Stapp, in a later interview, Marshall left the band on his own wishes.

The song is very aggressive both lyrically and musically; it has a thick distorted sound with heavy palm muted guitar riffs and pounding double kick drums.

Music video

A video was also released with the single which was also aired on MTV as a follow up to Creed's first single, My Sacrifice. Developed by Vision Scape Interactive, the team behind games such as Twisted Metal 4, were responsible for characterizing and developing the storyline in the video with the band. The team spent $473,000, and dedicated 15 employees working more than 18 hours a day to complete the project, according to Matt McDonald, President of Vision Scape.

Bullets (Editors song)

"Bullets" is a song by British post-punk revival band Editors and is featured on their 2005 debut album, The Back Room. It was originally released 24 January 2005 as their first single. The single was mixed by Cenzo Townshend and the video made for the song was directed by Mike Brady. Both editions of the original single were limited to 500 copies. It was then re-released 26 September 2005 as the fourth single from the album (see 2005 in British music). A new single version was re-recorded and produced by Jacknife Lee and a second video was made for the song, directed by Martin de Thurah.

    Bullets

    by: Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back Soundtrack

    I gotta freak I gotta flow
    I gotta throw my ass overboard don't you know
    The tip I'm on yeah it's the bomb
    Did I ever tell you that you look a lot like my mom
    Yeah and your smart I can tell you pull me apart as well
    And then you put me back together hey hey don't break my heart and sell it for
    Ice cream and fudge give me a nudge
    Yeah is it live or is it dope honey I'm not the kind to judge
    If you got the bullets I got the time
    You bring the bullets I'll bring the wine
    You bring your bullets I'll bring my bat
    I can tell you where it is but I can't tell you where it's at
    Now money honey's your only friend
    You know your friends may take a walk but money'll be there till the end
    You're in a spin it ain't no sin
    To drink some gin and have yourself some fun oh every now and again
    Oh man I'm bleeding so I'm going to bed bro
    Because the mad hatter's crazy and having a party in my head and though
    I don't mind big baby 'm getting sleepy
    And baby that look that you've been giving me is getting kinda creepy
    If you got the bullets I got the time
    You bring the bullets I'll bring the wine
    You bring your bullets I'll bring my bat
    Let's get the hell out of town before they find out where we're at
    I can tell you where it is but I can't tell you where it's at
    And I gotta pig p it wears a wig see
    It tells me every single morning boy you're going to be big b
    It's kinda cutie it plays the flute g
    And yeah a flute playing wig wearing pig's a fucking hootie
    I ain't no blowfish I'm light as air so
    I've got a million dollar smile and I take it everywhere I go
    But you know I keep it hidden deep inside my big ole head
    And I only take it out at night when I'm alone in bed
