We did an acoustic cover thing of FOB’s MSKWYDITD some time ago. Just thought I’d share it here too.

Real Friends | Late Nights In My Car

“If you never break, you’ll never know how to put yourself back together.”

I sort of changed how it goes a little to have it make more sense if I sing it.

Good little girl, always picking a fight with me.
You know that I’m bad, but you’re spending the night with me.
What… do you want… from my world?
You’re a good little girl.

You say I’m a bad little boy,
You think I’m acting and you really don’t buy, I’m that kind of guy 
But I, really am, so why do you still hang out with me

Don’t you know I’m a villain?
Every night, I’m out killing
Sending everyone running like children?
I know why you’re mad at me.
I got demon eyes… and they’re looking right through your anatomy,
Into your deepest fears.
Baby, I’m not from here,
I’m from the Nightosphere. To me, you’re clear… transparent.
You’ve got a thing for me, girl. It’s apparent.

La da da da da,
Da da da da da da da da da da,
Da da da da da da.

“You Can’t Say Kingston Doesn’t Love You” | Title Fight

I’m nervous about staring across the room
and waiting for the walls to move
I don’t see anybody else
and I don’t need anybody else
I’m dirt beneath your feet
step all over me

i think my priest might be gay????? i mean he keeps saying “ah, men” after every prayer

Friday Discussion: Punk Goes…We’d Actually Like

propertyofzack:

You’re kind of tired of Punk Goes Pop 1-27 every year aren’t you? Well, we are too. If we look back a little deeper in the past, the series of releases from Fearless Records used to be a little less predictable and a lot better quality wise. We thought it would be fun to do a new  PropertyOfZack Friday Discussion on Punk Goes..We’d Actually Like with many different routes the series could, and hopefully will, take in the future. Check out our Discussion below and feel free to reblog with some of your suggestions as well!

Punk Goes Disney
I mean, come the fuck on. How has this not happened yet? We know what All Time Low is picking Aladdin. Disney songs are built with insanely catchy melodies and they’re either super inspirational or extremely sad. So between the posi pop-punk bands and the sad emo acts, (sup, Evan Weiss?) the Disney catalog is ripe for the picking. I want to see The Wonder Years cover that Phil Collins song from Tarzan. I want to see Polar Bear Club or The Menzingers offer their take on an Elton John song from The Lion King. Can I get Hayley Williams and Paramore doing a Little Mermaid jawn? This is the greatest idea I’ve ever come up with in my 22 years on this planet. PS: Fearless Records, for real, I’m officially calling dibs on this idea and would like royalties if (read: when) you cash in on it. - Thomas Nassiff

Punk Goes Acoustic 3
Acoustic songs tend to have an easier time making their way into our hearts than their big brother: full band songs. They’re slow, they’re airy, they’re lead by lyrics, not rhythm. The first time I ever heard Taking Back Sunday was on Punk Goes Acoustic with their acoustic rendition of “Tell All Your Friends,” and I fell in love in a way I could never have today if I heard Taking Back Sunday cover Katy Perry’s latest of 10 Billboard hits. 

Punk Goes Acoustic Volumes 1 and 2 gave fans the chance to hear some of their favorite songs in a great and emotional new way, and also helped fans to find other artists they had never heard of before. A Punk Goes Acoustic 3 would most likely be easier financially for Fearless Records, and it’s something we all want. Lets do this instead of Metalcore Goes Pop 12. - Zack Zarrillo

Punk Goes Punk
Look, we all know it’s become a running joke at this point: none of the bands that contribute to the Punk Goes… series come within a neutron bomb’s blast radius of anything that might reasonably be called “punk.” And it’s not like those bands are lacking in self awareness — most would sooner label themselves “pop” or “metal” than safety-pin the “punk” decal to the leather jacket they don’t even own. So why not have them take a crack at some real punk classics? 

Just think about what Punk Goes Punk could be! Woe, Is Me covering Screeching Weasel (because who can be reasonably expected to keep all those members straight?) Forever The Sickest Kids covering Bad Brains (can you “Pay To Cum” with fake Rolex watches, or is that a cash-only transaction?) Escape The Fate covering TSOL (shitty hair metal phases: not just for washed up 80’s punk icons!); Falling In Reverse covering The Sex Pistols (bet they really kill this one!); Jonny Craig covering Minor Threat (…you don’t actually need me to explain this, do you?); Blood On The Dance Floor covering GG Allin (OK, this one’s just here because I want to see Dahvie Vanity covered in his own feces.)

Tell me you wouldn’t drop a few clams for that. Sure, it’s the kind of silly lark you’d only listen to once and then shelve forever. But let’s be honest, that’s still one more time that you listened to the last few Punk Goes… albums, isn’t it? - Jesse Richman

This has been happening for all of time but never “officially.” Throwing $10,000 to Breathe Carolina to cover “Angels We Have Heard on High” might seem stupid (because it is)  especially since no one’s doing that track better than Relient K already did, so let’s make sure to choose these bands carefully. Like Moths To Flames? Chunk! No, Captain Chunk!? Sorry dudes, sit this one out. We need to enlist poppy bands or soulful crooners to whisper sweet Christmas nothings into my iPod headphones. 

So I want Nate Ruess and fun. tackling “Jingle Bells.” I want Brian Fallon and The Gaslight Anthem (or Horrible Crowes, dude, whatever, I’m just a slave4u) showing me their chops on “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas” (while I weep softly, gently, alone in the background). I want Patrick Stump and Fall Out Boy doing “Santa Claus Is Comi-” …Nevermind. Just let me get a reprise of “Yule Shoot Yr Eye Out.” - Thomas Nassiff
