(Jamie Foxx Gets Two Oscar Nods, 'Aviator' Leads Pack ). ''MTV.com''. January 5, 2005.〕
The band's influences include Van Morrison, R.E.M., Mike + The Mechanics, Nirvana, Bob Dylan, and The Band.
==Origin of band name==
Singer Adam Duritz and guitarist David Bryson began playing San Francisco coffeehouses together, performing under the name Counting Crows. The name was taken from ''One for Sorrow'', a British divination nursery rhyme about the superstitious counting of magpies, a member of the crow family. Duritz heard the rhyme in the film ''Signs of Life'', which starred his close friend, actress Mary-Louise Parker.〔 Developing a following in the Bay Area and deciding to expand the band, Duritz and Bryson kept the name as they added members.
The most common modern version of the rhyme:

One for sorrow,

Two for joy,

Three for a girl,

Four for a boy,

Five for silver,

Six for gold,

Seven for a secret never to be told.

The rhyme is featured in the third verse of the song "A Murder of One" - "murder" is the collective noun for crows - ("Well I dreamt I saw you walking up a hillside in the snow/Casting shadows on the winter sky as you stood there/counting crows...") on the band's début album ''August and Everything After''.
