Spite

[InDireNeedSF]

Which is a more spiteful song? (or meaner whatever)

I can't seem to decide

[dbs521]

seventy times 7, but i guess i'm partial to brand new anyway.

[hobbes2809]

70x7

[aCe_]

seventy times 7..because my favorite number is 7.

sweet. you're from horsham. i'm from doylestown.

but I pick Seventy Times Seven.

"Is that what you call a getaway?
Tell me what you got away with.
'Cause i've seen more spine in jellyfish.
Seen more guts in Eleven year old kids.."

[metallicpunk]

Is "Tell That Mick" about an actual person because I think everyone knows the story behind the Brand New song?

[Stereo Mike]

Don't apologise, i hope you choke and die.

So spiteful.

[Indiepowell]

This is a really good poll... and a hard one too. "stop burning bridges and drive off of them, so I can forget about you." <--- that's pretty spiteful too. Kudos to both songs.

[A000lex]

70 x 7. Listening to it right now

[SoCoSquid4]

70 X 7!!! any song about hating john nolan is pretty uh...yeah. same with TBS' no i in team. yeah. thats what should be up instead of FOB.

[ilovebsb]

wait wait wait ! i wanabe filled in. what is 70x7 about or whos it about and whats the deal with cute without the "e". could someone fill me in?

[Neo Cassady]

definitely 70x7

wait wait wait ! i wanabe filled in. what is 70x7 about or whos it about and whats the deal with cute without the "e". could someone fill me in?

it's about adam from tbs, and tbs's retaliation song is "there's no i in team," not "cute without the e."

[ilovebsb]

i dont get it though because cute without the "e" sounds like him getting cheated on some stupid slut. like what did the dude from brand new put the mack on adams girl? someone please explain more

[Jezebel in Hell]

wait, im pretty sure its theres no i in team not cute. And its about John nolan.

[domesticyeti]

it is theres no "i" in team.
tbs took the bridge part of seventy times seven and used it in that song without permission. but i didnt know that 70x7 was about John Nolan.

[InDireNeedSF]

it is theres no "i" in team.
tbs took the bridge part of seventy times seven and used it in that song without permission. but i didnt know that 70x7 was about John Nolan.

That's not what this poll was about, however, I thought like everyone knew the whole TBS/Brand New thing...guess not

[Shatter_Glass]

"Have another drink..... Greatest "spiteful" set of lyrics ever.

[angel_words]

Seventy x 7 isn't about John Nolan. They shared the lyrics. It was a Long Island thing. And I don't think they stole the lyrics...but I could be wrong. I had second hand knowledge..

And anything is better than Fall Out Boy.

[cahrishurr]

funny how no one who voted for fall out boy commented

its obviously 70 X 7

[ThatGirl]

it is theres no "i" in team.
tbs took the bridge part of seventy times seven and used it in that song without permission. but i didnt know that 70x7 was about John Nolan.
ironically enough those are each my favorite songs by each band. well not fob. but bn and tbs. eh. whatever. i vote bn. much much meaner.

[a speedo model]

i voted for the wrong one, i wanted to vote for brand new. fuck

[domesticyeti]

Seventy x 7 isn't about John Nolan. They shared the lyrics. It was a Long Island thing. And I don't think they stole the lyrics...but I could be wrong.

yeah, i didnt think it was about Nolan either. But i think that TBS did steal the lyrics, cause that's supposedly what alot of "Okay I Believe You..." is about.
i.e- these are the words you wish you wrote down.
this is the way you wish your voice sounds.

[LostSymphonies]

are they cool with eachother yet? lets not forget about the Brand New T-shirt stating "Mics are for singing not swimming" clearly a shot at adam

[InDireNeedSF]

are they cool with eachother yet? lets not forget about the Brand New T-shirt stating "Mics are for singing not swimming" clearly a shot at adam

yea they have been for a long time, they even toured together wayyyyyyyyyyy wayyyy back, and they were cool until the whole TBS split, where Adam did whatever which they called creative differences and Nolan and Shaun formed Straylight and now Brand New and Straylight hates TBS as do alot of people

correct me if any of that is wrong

[alcoholandirony]

not this shit again.

[angel_words]

I love how nobody even gives a shit about FOB. It makes me laugh hysterically. Realistically, though whatever happened between BN and TBS was for the best because we got some amazing songs out of the ordeal.

[underthetalking]

This shouldn't even be a poll.

Brand New's worst song is better than FOB's best song. Brand New is about real stuff. FOB's lyrics are just little catch phrases that don't even make sense put together.

[Apocalypse Now]

I love both songs, and they both are incredibly hateful.

"Have another drink and drive yourself home, hope there's ice on all the roads, and you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt and again when your head goes through the window" - Brand New

"I hope you choke on those words, that kiss, that bottle - confess (So bury me in memory). Now ash yourself, yeah, out on the insides, said I loved you but I lied" - Fall Out Boy

I sort of think everyone goes with Brand New:
a. because it's the cool thing to hate on FOB, even if that song's from their old album, before they "sold-out"
b. because everyone knows the story of the Brand New/Taking Back Sunday drama fest.
c. because everyone who loves Brand New, is going to pick Brand New, and everyone who loves FOB won't pick them because their afraid to get torn to peices by the people on this board.

I love both Brand New and Fall Out Boy, but I voted for Fall Out Boy, because no one voted for FOB.

[lesto17]

How do people here seriously not know what actually went on???

Anyway here is the deal....

Jesse Lacey and John Nolan grew up together, played in bands together, and were/are really good friends. John hooked up with Jesse's girlfriend. Jesse wrote 70x7 about John and Taking Back Sunday wrote "There Is No I In Team" in response to 70x7. Jesse and John had made up however, which explains the sharing of the lyrics in the bridge (Long Island bands from around the same time as Brand New and TBS liked to create lyric pools where they would share ideas and what not). There is no longer any bad blood between Jesse and John, and there hasn't been in a long time. Neither song has anything to do with Adam at all.

[lesto17]

are they cool with eachother yet? lets not forget about the Brand New T-shirt stating "Mics are for singing not swimming" clearly a shot at adam


Brand New made the "Mics are for singing, not swinging" shirts right after John (Jesse's good friend) and Shaun left TBS. This was a shot at Adam. TBS retaliated with their "Proudly Swinging..." shirts. After the drama between Taking Back Sunday and their ex-members (John and Shaun) died down, all parties just got over it and moved on.

The t-shirts have absolutely no relation to "Seventy x 7" or "Theres no I in Team."

[bigal00004]

seventy times seven, and its such a great song

[crowquill]

no fucking contest

"i hope there's ice on all the roads"

[Jonas900]

i've never heard that FOB song, but if i had the option i'd have voted for "Through Being Cool" by Saves the Day.

[Empty hearts187]

brand new, no doubt.

[oxfordqueef]

I love both songs, and they both are incredibly hateful.

"Have another drink and drive yourself home, hope there's ice on all the roads, and you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt and again when your head goes through the window" - Brand New

I love both Brand New and Fall Out Boy, but I voted for Fall Out Boy, because no one voted for FOB.

hearts,
danny

Oh don't be such a martyr. Maybe people picked Brand New because it's a better song. I hate it when people say, "Oh, you just hate Fall Out Boy because it's cool to." Maybe they just think that Fall Out Boy is shit. I happen to like Fall Out Boy. I happen to like Brand New as well. But just because a person doesn't like fall out boy, doesn't mean they're doing it to be cool.

I don't mean to blow up on you, it's just something that generally bugs me, and I pounced on this specific post.

-Jim

[greeleyxcore]

im gonna say brand new cos theyve always had that spitefulness in their lyrics.

[HoboAdam]

didnt this dicussion die in 2003

[myplasticyou]

fall out boy couldn't be spiteful if they tried

[rewindthistime]

on the basis of those two songs, i choose seventy times 7. as bands, fall out boy absolutelyyyy. tttyg is such an angry cd, lyrically.

Is "Tell That Mick" about an actual person because I think everyone knows the story behind the Brand New song?
yes. all of tttyg is about one girl [with the exception of grenade jumper...].

[Punkdc]

This was a tuff one, but voted for BN

[Mula225]

Ummm, both songs suck???

[Branevember31]

also, jesse said "your as subtle as a brick on the small of my back" in a phone conversation with john (thats what i heard)

[Alex DiVincenzo]

I'd say 70x7 but both are good and spiteful.

[1000shadesofred]

this is too tough to call

"have another drink and drive yourself home
i hope theres ice on all the roads
and you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt
and again when your head goes through the windshield"

or

"i could have died with you choke
i hope you choke on those words that kiss that bottle...
lets play this game
called when you catch fire
i would piss to put you out
stop burning bridges and drive off of them
so i can forget about you"

i would have to say seventy times 7 is def. more hateful, but tell mick is def more creatively meanspirited

[sbalfourish]

also, jesse said "your as subtle as a brick on the small of my back" in a phone conversation with john (thats what i heard)

It's from the song "I Am Hated For Loving" by Morrissey.

[heytheredelilah]

definitely 70x7



it's about adam from tbs, and tbs's retaliation song is "there's no i in team," not "cute without the e."

WRONG

[Zeran]

nothing beats brand new. nothing.

[pretty_in_punk3]

"so have another drink and drive yourself home
i hope there's ice on all the roads
and you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt
and again when your head goes through the windshield"

the most spiteful lyrics ive ever heard...and i love it...i choose 70x7

[boysdontcry17]

old tbs>bn

ANY day of the week.

[boysdontcry17]

WRONG

yep

[-DRUNKFACE-]

the song is 70x7 is about how adam was friends with him and then took over his place in tbs, ang they stole the lyrics from tbs!!!!! now get over it and die (Y)

[meliisssaaaa]

both classics.. but i picked seventy times 7.

[MIKEY_HORROR]

70x7 by far

[Gumbyjag]

hate to burst your guys's bubble but fall out boy wins on this one.

[flyeast]

I sort of think everyone goes with Brand New:
a. because it's the cool thing to hate on FOB, even if that song's from their old album, before they "sold-out"
b. because everyone knows the story of the Brand New/Taking Back Sunday drama fest.
c. because everyone who loves Brand New, is going to pick Brand New, and everyone who loves FOB won't pick them because their afraid to get torn to peices by the people on this board.
...Or, y'know, maybe because they like "Seventy Times 7" better. Just maybe.
