by my best guess, Louis takes another of my top 5 with
5th place and 8 points
This actually started off sub 8th, but I get into it more with each listen. The lyrics (if you can catch them) are brutal and disturbing, which is exactly what I want to hear in my “Fuck Catholicism” music. Also, a couple reallllly good fucks in here.
Another song that started off closer to the bottom, but when the music really kicks in after the intro verse, it gets really really good.
Also, we’ve all been here, right? Nobody likes to feel this way, but when you do, having something to really put out with force how youre feeling has to be a great cathartic pillow screaming good time.
Another 4th for ya boy seities. I actually try not to listen to this song too much because it has this ability to get stuck on repeat in my head for days/weeks at a time, and well…its just not the best thing to have on repeat kickin around in there…
A lot of people are going to boothisman.gif for putting The Offspring ahead of legends The Dead Kennedys and Replacements, but I don’t care. I’ve heard both of the others before and this is actually a new Offspring song for me, and it rocks. The opening flurry of fucks is also really perfect for this song. Loved it, great time, gonna add it to my playlists.
Submitter comments: Amazing how this song is still so relevant while being dated at the same time. At 2:37 Michael Stipe finally says what we’re all feeling.
Yeah, this is good. 100% agree with the submitter here. What an apt song for our current times. Nobody does reading off lists of shit better than Stipe. No idea how he makes that stuff interesting or fun to listen to, but he does every time. Its a really special talent in my mind. Not much to say outside of this being just a very strong, interesting listen with a great use of the word fuck multiple times through the song.
Heyyyyyyyyyy, guess what got number 1 from the first listen?
In 1st place, scoring 12
ohhhhhhh man this is good shit. Like, Anyone who cant take this back to their school year summers and just float away for four minutes missed out on a good childhood.
Thanks for the reveal CM! Liked quite a bit in this category and appreciate the reveal.
Also, congrats to @anon29622970 who is having quite the grab bag considering the madlad went straight into hosting one before ever having participated.
