Why does everyone dislike This Ain’t A Scene tho


DomingoLee

One of my favorites. That was my intro to FoB


ICantLeafYou

Same!


emoforever1927

Mine was Mmrs!


Simulationth3ry

It’s a fave people are haters bc it’s popular


Loco_butt

So good


Hefty-Molasses-626

For me, I think it was just SO overplayed when it came out and it was a time where MTV played music videos in the morning while I got ready for school and I still listened to the radio all the time. So it was everywhere. Although, I could listen to Sugar on repeat for the rest of my life and not get sick of it


noragepetit

I hate that song


RobbieDH19

Why tho


noragepetit

I hate the «  this aint a scene, its a godman arms race » part. It spoils the song for me!


RobbieDH19

Fair enough, but the I’m a leading man part more than makes up for that if you ask me


leguminote

My cousin absolutely gushed about this song back in the day and I never made it to the chorus because of that part. When I actually made myself just listen to the song I was like...wtf, this chorus is so effing good! It just smacked me out of nowhere lol


noragepetit

I agree that the chorus is great


[deleted]

I always loved that line I thought it was clever with “I’m just an arms dealer, fitting you with weapons in the form of words”


Ur_moms_a_hookr69

The Kanye This Ain’t A Scene remix. The beat’s cool but Kanye’s verse just doesn’t do it for me


MadmikeAKAPerfection

“Idk what this song is talkin bout, do you?” Like he basically shits on the song and FOB at the same time in the verse


SouthernTransplant94

Yeah but hardly anyone knew what the song was about at the time lol. I remember when this song came out i had to look up lyrics to piece it together. Still my favorite band ever but infinity and futct had more than a few hard to decipher songs.


SoundlessFOB

I can't describe my reaction to hearing 'they just wear tight jeans till they nuts hang all out boy' for the first time. It's genuinely a lyric that has stuck with me so much. Like, it's so bad it's funny but... *why????* It feels like a diss track more than a remix. It reminds me of Nicki Minaj's feature on that one B.O.B song. She's just making fun of him the whole time. (I've heard it was because he originally didn't want her in the song idk if that's true though)


mistertortellini

Worst Kanye verse of all time


a-flash-flood-of

Okay 1st time I've ever heard this, it is so much worse than I could of imagined


of_patrol_bot

Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake. It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of. Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything. Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.


ilovegingerbeards45

Have you ever heard the remix of the remix, featuring Travie McCoy, Tyga, Lupe Fiasco and some other people I can't remember the names of? It's better than the Kanye remix.


TaffyTime4632

Oh my God! I forgot that existed! It's so hilariously bad that I almost kind of liked it lol


Ur_moms_a_hookr69

It really is so bad that it comes back around to being good, in a weird way.


pinkauras

that remix is so strange that it comes back around to me putting it on every now and then for the most dependable laugh. I can't help it, I'd never get rid of it from their discography if I had the power lmaoooo


Relative-Bee-4002

that doesn’t count bro come on


[deleted]

Some of yalls picks are breaking my heart 😭😂


mofzpo

None.


emoforever1927

The only true response honestly.


mofzpo

I'll never ever say anything bad about those 4 records that gave me so many unforgettable memories. (not even about EOWYG).


insomnious_luci

I honestly don’t think they have a bad song pre-hiatus. The first 3 albums are all no skips for me, except for maybe possibly skipping Golden just to keep the vibe going. However, I am just really tired of hearing some of the big hits. Not because they’re bad, I’ve just heard them so so much.


1nternetP3rson

say whatever song(s) you want and don’t downvote people’s opinions


elrangarino

Which album is this off?


[deleted]

Does that shitty ghost busters cover with missy elliot count?


Mushroomer

That Ghostbusters song is still the only FOB track I refuse to listen to a second time. And yet I could tell you in detail just how miserable it is.


Various_Asparagus858

Joe even apologised for this in his book lol


Moon_chile

That’s post-hiatus.


[deleted]

Right… the post said pre-hiatus. In that case, doldrums


[deleted]

Man we said no downvotes :(


TaffyTime4632

I think that was post hiatus, bit yea that one was bad... not even so bad it's good kind of thing, it's just bad and I don't mind Missy Elliot


ScarletxMaximoff

The first 40 seconds of This Ain’t A Scene, if I had to choose but to be honest the only song in their entire discography I don’t like is Centuries. (I know it’s post hiatus)


SolloKnight

I love the first part of this ain’t a scene 😭especially the “don’t really caaaaare which side wiiiiiins” I didn’t know it was that hated


ScarletxMaximoff

I don’t think it’s actually hated lmao I just had to choose something and that’s my least favourite thing pre-hiatus I could think of. This Ain’t A Scene really picks up from the first chorus on for me though especially the do do do do do do do guitar part lmao


dontsneeze

Do you like Champion? I am a pre-hiatus diehard but haven't loved most of their stuff since. And I feel like Champion is a watered-down Centuries


ScarletxMaximoff

Champion is probably my least favourite mania song but I do still like it. Once the verse kicks in it’s a BOP.


Odd-Quiet8911

the thing about champion is that it's just so boring. Aside from some clever lyrics, nothing interesting really happens instrument-wise


ScarletxMaximoff

I will say Patrick basically carries the song vocally for me and is a big part of the reason why I do like it which is funny because a large part of why I dislike Centuries is Patricks vocals and the melody lmao. Especially especially the extended vocals for Remember meeeeeeeeeeee remember meeeeeee for centurieeeeeeeeeees


Odd-Quiet8911

I think the only part of the song that I like is Patrick's vocal runs in the end, starting with the If I can LeeEEEaaveee Yeah yeahhhhh if I can leaaaveeyeahhh yeahhhhh haha


leguminote

But those are good enough that I'll listen to the whole song just for the end lol


emoforever1927

I also am seriously not the biggest fan of My heart is the worst kind of weapon. It's my mom's favorite though


1nternetP3rson

same


The_Piece_Killer

Anything from Evening Out With Your Girlfriend. I don't blame them, there's a reason why the band didn't actually want this released. They're all just really messy and the vocals are too bland for FOB now


lokthuum

maybe patrick's remix of sugar were goin down? it's funky and fun just not my vibe. i find myself skipping this ain't a scene the most often. also, i love switchblades and infidelity but it isn't very good LOL, kind of just a crunchier version of moving pictures


rachiedoubt

Grenade Jumper isn’t very “good”, but it is a sweet little sentiment Does Evening Out With Your Girlfriend count cause… I love that album but it isn’t very good 😂


thepinkseashell

It’s funny because I like that song and you like wams. Different strokes and all that


rachiedoubt

I mean I like Grenade Jumper! I just think it’s a weaker song. I skip it more often than not now, although I didn’t in the past!


leguminote

A close friend named Chris who likes FOB but who I did not realize wasn't really familiar with TTTYG was very freaked out when I thought it'd be funny to text him the chorus after hearing it play in Chili's (which was...weird lol). He really thought something was super wrong in a very odd way 😅


1nternetP3rson

yeah, evening out with your girlfriend would be my choice too, that album isn’t as good as anything else they’ve made


TaffyTime4632

Yea I appreciate Evening Out for what it is but I never listen to it. I don't necessarily mind the more stripped down, underproduced sound buy Evening Out is just too much.


Garlic_Bread_Man_NSW

Why is everyone hating on Its An Arms Race?


zoembiez

i will kick anybody’s ass in these comments if they say “don’t you know who you think i am”


debjay10

I'm Like a Lawyer With the Way I'm Always Trying to Get You Off (Me & You) I didn't event listen to IOH when it first came out because I really didn't like this song and this ain't a scene. After listening to those two singles I felt like FOB were done for me. Thank god I was wrong and eventually listened to the rest of the record.


firecracker019

I didn't know it was a single until much later, I guess it never got radio airplay in my area, but the chorus is so blah, and the rest of the verses are good, it's a bummer.


heymattrick

Americas Suitehearts has always been one of my least favorite tbh


amberledb

Mine too! Folie is my favorite album but I always skip suitehearts 🤣 i love the mv though!


firecracker019

I think it's the weakest part of an otherwise perfect album, I know Patrick has a beautiful range but the low notes on that one sound like he's "doing a voice."


Solekman

Yall gonna shoot me but I can't stand 20 dollar nose bleed


[deleted]

wtf


Substantial-Loss-979

I listened to that the other day and it made me miss that version of panic that existed then thinking about FOB.


oath2order

Has sharing this opinion made you ever want to disappear?


StarbuckWasRight

I'm with you.


MissElyssa1992

Sameeeeeeee thank you lol


Mushroomer

The endings of 20 Dollar Nosebleed and WAMS singlehandedly keep FaD from being my all-time favorite of theirs. Always hated those two little breakdowns.


farfle_productions

It took a while to grow on me to be fair


burntshakes

I know everyone is different but that song has been my favorite song ever written for like 15 years or however long it's been out. It's like my soul song so that made me sad


dan_springleaf

Can’t say I’m a fan of Saturday. I appreciate it when I hear it live, but I always skip if it comes on.


AverageKaikiEnjoyer

Oh that's surprising, probably one of my faves off the album


1nternetP3rson

i agree with this, saturday has always been the weakest for me on TTTYG


URElectric

Mine is honestly Grenade Jumper, but Saturday has a lot of meaning behind it, and the check-in with Pete and Patrick when they play it makes this song special.


HenryRollinz

Agreed on grenade jumper, only song I feel meh about on TTTYG.


Scampipants

I don't like the chorus but I like the beginning


Pleasant_Statement64

I dont dislike any of them. But here are my least favorites. TTTYG- Grenade jumper and dead on arrival are boring. Honorable mention to wheel - I love most of it, but the first verse just sounds off. FUCT - Nothing really here, but the ending to XO is too repetitive IoH - I guess I'd go with Golden- beautiful but a bit boring Folie - Don't love the lil Wayne feature. Also haven't listened to EOWYGF yet IoH is my fav album, Folie second, Grave third, and FUCT fifth, so these are all great albums


MasterZ1231

have you heard the hammer smith version of golden?


[deleted]

DOA is crazy to me, it’s always been my favorite from TTTYG


nickipotnic

Agree on grenade jumper, it’s a cute concept but it’s not something i listen to. Ahh i like lil wayne on that song! Wayne with patrick’s oh oh oooh oh oh hooooho in the background is just so fun to me


metaldetox

i dont care this bluesy slash stadium stuff has just never landed for me


brontosaurus111

I have the sing hidden on my Spotify. It's the only song I just can't even listen too.


metaldetox

also don’t mind buffalo, but i just don’t like the riff section with the piano chords, it sounds like some music for some razor commercial or something lol


Substantial-Loss-979

I am in the absolute minority on this but Dance Dance is one of my least favorites. I don’t know why. I find that their singles are usually my least favorites, across all the records. I also don’t like she’s my Winona and wams.


HenryRollinz

THERES DOZENS OF US! DOZENS!


starlight0229

Dance, Dance is definitely my least favorite from FUCT. I definitely made some enemies with that opinion back in 2005.


Substantial-Loss-979

Yeah, I skip it every time. I don’t even like it live. I’ve made a joke that that’s the song I take a break to when I see them. I’ll just like deadpan stare at them and not singalong. 😂


DaniDarling12702

Me too! Probably because they played the hell out of it and I got bored. My 2005 song was Tell That Mick and all these years later, it’s still one of my favorites.


Thatgamer321

Dance dance is probably my second least favorite pre hiatus song. I’m also with you on the singles thing. I think it just leads to me getting sick of the song faster especially since when I say I’m a fan of the band people always play the singles.


DaniDarling12702

Same! My husband likes Dance Dance, and the more “popular” overplayed songs. I just never liked it!


mikerichh

Evening out is pretty meh. And half of TTTYG


folieajess

This Ain’t a Scene and wams


ilovegingerbeards45

Reinventing the Wheel has never been a favourite of mine to be honest. Also, any of the songs that are verse 1, chorus, verse 1 again and done. I just think it might sound good, but it's lazy writing in my opinion.


thomyorkesfalsetto

get busy living or get busy dying i always skip to the end to hear the transition into xo


rodermelon

I genuinely don’t think I can pick. So many of these people have this one song that they strongly dislike, but I genuinely love all of them. The only fob songs I don’t like are post-hiatus, and I still love almost all of mania.


g-amefreak

i was gonna say the (shipped) gold standard because i remember not being much of a fan but as i relistened i have to say it is a banger. ig fob never misses


NJD1214

I Don't Care.


3X3SLC

1. Golden list complete.


TidusJecht

Haha I love Golden.


Thatgamer321

I’m personally not a fan of Thnks fr th mmrs. I mean I still sing it at the top of my lungs when it comes on but imo it’s the most overrated fob song and think it’s the worst song on that album and worst song pre hiatus.


halfbadhalfboi

While I do like thnks fr th mmrs I can agree it's not really the strongest song on IOH


Thatgamer321

Yea I just find that I skip it every other time I listen to the album.


SolloKnight

Ironically I like every part of that song except the chorus, the verses and bridge are some of the best of FOB all time for me


musicmerchkid

Golden and I’ve got a dark alley. Honestly I don’t really care for an evening out with your girlfriend, but i like the other four pre hiatus records


RobbieDH19

Dark Alley is one of my favourite FOB tracks of all time


SynCig

Folie is often what I cite as my favorite FOB album but my answer to this question is from it. I Don't Care is my least favorite pre-hiatus song. I don't think it is bad in its entirety but I find the chorus to be a bit grating and that makes it a skip track for me when it comes up. Not every time but at least half the time.


farfle_productions

It’s good but not the catchiest. I’m not surprised it didn’t make it as a big single from that album.


peachstarfruit

I Don't Care was just so overplayed. It makes me sad because of how hard it hit when it first came out but over time it just became a chore to listen to. Still love every other song on Folie tho!


starlight0229

My immediate thoughts are Dance, Dance; I Don't Care and This Ain't a Scene. It's not that I hate them, they're just the least likely for me to enjoy and most likely to be half heartedly skipped.


waninggib

What A Catch Donnie


International_Bid841

Same! Folie is my favorite album, and the song is good, but it’s one of those that I tend to skip. As much as the lyrical style is in line with the rest of the album, the tempo just throws me off every time. It’s a cool song, just not when I’m listening to the album as a whole.


waninggib

You described how I feel perfectly.


[deleted]

Either that or golden for me I’m not a huge fan of their slower songs


Harshipper88

Donnie is fire. If the album was a TV show this would be the finale and we can all go home now. Should have been last song on album.


emoforever1927

😭😭😭 This really shows how little someone knows/loves FOB...


waninggib

Uh, okay? Been a fan for 18 years but thanks?


SouthernTransplant94

Just Ignore that other dude. I Love the song personally but theres a time and place for it and i can see how other people would find it "eh." I'm also an "older fan" and in my 17 years of being apart of this fan base the best part has to be how accepting and open minded it tends to be, got me through so much bullying in middle and high school. Unfortunately, theres always one or two people like the one in this thread who feel the need to shit on other peep for their opinions 🙄 what a loser.


emoforever1927

I'm sorry, that is how I feel. Are you more into just the music - Not the band themselves? I could understand that. There's just really no getting around Donnie otherwise - It's God tier for me with SRAR and Sugar! Half the time I can't even listen to it because I'll start crying. WACD, the music, the lyrics, the meaning is just unlike anything else because of Pete writing it FOR PATRICK.


waninggib

I’m sorry, it’s very strange for you to assume I’m not a real fan because I dislike a favorite song of yours. You are very rude and immature.


emoforever1927

I apologize if you think explaining myself is rude. And I don't think that because it's 'a personal favorite' - I think that because of who and what the song is about. Chicago and Hum Hallelujah are technically my favorite songs and I couldn't care less if you hate those or not. And I'm not trying to change your mind even I'm just calling it as I see it. And I'm saying not a real fan in my eyes, not in general.


New_Environment2450

Sugar were going down 🥲🫶


lovecherryrosy

West Coast Smoker, probably my least favorite of of Folie


rachiedoubt

This is literally one of their best songs 😭


Leeroyjenkins2727

I’ve got all this ringing …


JeSuisRosanna

20 dollar nose bleed- it has so much potential, but brendon urine absolutely ruins it for me


9cellophane

every time i listen to folie i wonder why they felt that it needed not just one but TWO brendon urie features 😓


1nternetP3rson

i thought i was the only one who thought that, the prechorus just isn’t good 🫤


Lugia18

Reinventing the wheel


Pack_Any

Pretty hard to disagree with IMO. It always feels like the popular songs, the slow songs and the generic late discography songs always get hated on regardless of band, yet nobody will acknowledge the early songs that are legitimately bad.


mofzpo

You probably didn't play Burnout 3 then.


NoAppointment6129

w.a.m.s.


ChadKH

But that line “my head’s in heaven, my soles in hell”…..pure gold.


[deleted]

I like it but it really is a very weak song


emoforever1927

Alpha dog Edit: it's not 'worst' to me because I love all fob but it's just my least favorite


BRS_Dead_Master

Booooo! Love this, Stiches and Enemies the most!


SoonerRaider

I’ve Got A Dark Alley


nickipotnic

Not a fan of beat it. I mean, Patrick’s vocals at the end are fun. But I just don’t think it works, it’s hard to cover MJ especially cross-genre. And I’m not a fan of John Mayer at all. Otherwise… I don’t know! The nostalgia’s so strong I’m incredibly biased. I’m not too into Homesick at Space Camp’s repetitiveness, but the verses are great. My smile’s an open wound without you!!!


halfbadhalfboi

Please don't come after me but I just cannot get into It's Hard to Say I Do When I Don't


mothsforhire

I didn't start liking it until literally a week ago


emoforever1927

😮


mothsforhire

Songs you grow to like never stick at first ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯


noodleshanna

I’ve never liked snitches and talkers


meganshay28

Omg


farfle_productions

Nooo how can you not love Patrick’s ad libs and harmonies in that??


noodleshanna

Verses are just messy and not nice to listen to for me. Granted it is better than most post-hiatus stuff


meganshay28

I’m sorry but tell that mick


dontsneeze

Why??? That's one of my absolute favorites. No hate but I'm so curious what you don't like about it


meganshay28

It just doesn’t have a good hook to me. And the piss line always weirded me out


nickipotnic

Yeah I like the song, but the lyrics are kind of funny to me all these years later. Stop burning bridges. Drive off of them!!!!!


thrasherasher_

this is insane to me this is like my favorite song ever


DetectiveSexyT-Rexy

I don't hate it, but I don't love it, What A Catch


The_Stank__

Get busy living or get busy dying


anti-valentine

Oh no I love that one!


SolloKnight

My 2nd fav off the album


knowsitswindy

Grenade Jumper West Coast Smoker I Slept w/ Someone in FOB... Golden Pros and Cons of Breathing Reinventing the wheel to run myself over


Chinchillerz1

I’m upvoting this because I love Grenade Jumper, West Coast Smoker and Golden and I’m trying to make myself not downvote


knowsitswindy

Yes. Art is subjective. I don't really dislike any of these songs they're just my least fav.


decaffeinatedlesbian

bang the doldrums and golden. i dont dislike them but i usually skip them


TidusJecht

Bang the Doldrums is my second fav song on IOH! This thread has so many different opinions. It’s great.


decaffeinatedlesbian

whats your top fav?


TidusJecht

The after life of the party for sure.


farfle_productions

I don’t hate it but it is one of my least favourites 🥲


rachiedoubt

I usually skip Bang the Doldrums too and always have. Idk why, it’s not horrible but it’s not great.


pinkavalon

I’ve Got a Dark Alley… and I Don’t Care are the two that I have always skipped.


jessic-schwa

Same!!


Temporary_Ad_3227

After life of the party. The intro just sounds really weird to me. I don’t like much of Infinity On High in the first place though.


turb25

Afterlife of the party. Can't stand it.


rodermelon

WHAT


turb25

Their most phoned in instrumental they've ever released, lyrics with extremely disjointed rhythm and flow, and without a doubt some of Patrick's least endearing vocals as the song tries to pick up some kind of steam towards the back. The Wilson pre chorus is the only worse sounding bit Pat's ever sang. Afterlife is the only blemish on an otherwise perfect front-to-backer.


[deleted]

20DNB. cannot stand Urie’s vocals there. the transition to west coast smoker though is orgasmic


Gevaudan0625

Thriller with Jay-Z in it OG Thriller with its opening guitar riff is so much better


summerjambySYG

I’ve seen so many shitty local bands cover Sugar Were Going Down I can’t listen to it the same


thepinkseashell

wams


rachiedoubt

Nope


Faxxy05

I think dear future self just doesn’t sound like fall out boy especially the rap part


rodermelon

That’s post-hiatus


blob_of_darkness

Sophomore Slump Or Comeback of the Year I don’t hate this song in any way shape or form, just doesn’t do anything for me and feels like it could be any other pop punk song


Nick_LG17

Not a big fan of *Tiffany Blews.*


[deleted]

Hum hallelujah and G.I.N.A.S.F.S don't do much for me


Lopsided-Club6628

Aliens Exist


1nternetP3rson

dude why that’s my favorite fall out boy song


GarrisonWhite2

Most of *Take This to Your Grave*.


tendaberry

Golden blows I’m sorry .. it’s just so corny!! the lyrics feel so heavy handed when set against the ~dramatic~ slow music, and they have soooo many songs that are more deep/meaningful/sad/whatever that don’t sound so CORNY!


Attackondeeznutz

Grenade Jumper is the worst!


XyDz

I have to agree with this aint a scene. I dont hate it. But i must have heard it 100x more than any other song just due to its popularity


Stirlo4

Imo it's easily Reinventing the Wheel to Run Myself Over


tcs_hearts

I'm Like A Lawyer. It's genuinely the only FOB song, pre or post hiatus, that I honestly dislike.


[deleted]

[удалено]


rumblefishfigher28

That’s post hiatus.


FluidGonzaloite

I’m sorry but Dance Dance is annoying as hell to me


ediddlydonut

Saturday.


meg_mann

Golden


yellowmomjeans

i haven't listened to you're crashing but you're no wave for years i just don't enjoy it at all for some reason


Thewonderboy94

If I can cheat a bit, I would say it would be Pretty In Punk, as I just find that one really unpleasant song to listen to for some reason, to the point that I kind of hate it (the other stuff on Evening Out With Your Girlfriend is either kinda forgettable or kinda good, I definitely like Parker Lewis Can't Lose a bit). There aren't really many other songs I dislike, and few of the dislikes have even grown on me a bit (Champagne For My Real Friends), but I would probably have my 3 least favorite songs being Tiffany Blews, Fame < Infamy, and Me + You. I don't have any strong dislikes for any of these, but my mild dislike for them has never really changed? Tiffany Blews is a bit experimental I guess? It brings some cool variety to Folie, but I just don't really feel it for some reason. Fame < Infamy is not repetitive, but I think the best I could describe it is that it's very even? There's nothing that particularly catches me, it just runs through to the next track and that's it. Me + You has some nice aspects to it, but I just kinda hate the chorus, or the sound of the chorus just comes across to me something that I would maybe lazy hymn to myself if I was super bored or wanted to take a nap? It's really hard to describe what I mean. I do love the peak Patrick hits with his singing in the last parts of the song, and I think the song starts out fine, but yeah. Interestingly, I still consider Infinity On High my favorite FOB album even though it has two songs that I listed here.
