I remembered another thing: Somebody said they didn't really care for Fall Out Boy with the exception of "Sugar We're Going Down" and the other FOB tracks given as examples were (I think) all older songs. I wanted to say that "Sugar..." is from the album "From Under the Cork Tree" which I bought without knowing anything about FOB except that I couldn't get "Sugar..." out of my head and I was afraid that would be the only song on the disc I liked. Boy was I wrong. I still haven't checked out any of their older stuff but I can wholeheartedly recommend the entire FUCT record.
Anya: It's lovely! I wish it was mine! Oh like you weren't all thinking the same thing. Giles: I'm fairly certain I wasn't.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

That was me, and, of the current FOB songs I've heard -- "Thx Fr Mmrs" (or however they spell that vowel-less title, which is LAME) and that heinous cover of "Beat It," which makes me want to retch -- I'm not feeling the love.
I think that "Sugar We're Going Down" is just an anomaly for me.

Oh, Tep! You didn't like "Bang the Doldrums"?! ::sobs::
The lyrics absolutely kill me, but the tune is hella catchy, too, with those drums. I'm thrilled you like "Sugar," though!

"Thx Fr Mmrs" (or however they spell that vowel-less title, which is LAME)
It's "Thnks Fr Th Mmrs", and they titled it that because their record label was bitching at them to shorten their notoriously long song titles. So they took out the vowels as a joke.
So yeah, it's lame on purpose.

My favorite is "Our Lawyer Made Us Change the Name of This Song".

that is a great song but I think it's emo.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Sorry, sorry.

I ... was going to start quoting and then realized I'd have to quote the whole song.

If we're going to have a conversation about what constitutes emo, I'll just sit in the corner with a bottle of scotch and drink until someone signals that we're done.

Can I sit with you?
