But they seem to like to sing along to Don't Stop Believing by Journey (who doesn't?) and It's Tricky by Run-DMC. haha.

[wewascontenders]

assistant. assistants. by trophy scars

I remember when we were just sixteen and dreaming.
Drinking in the basement, just shouting and screaming.
Listen to our favorite records all while thinking,
Some day were gonna be there on stage all singing.
Remember breaking hearts and getting hearts broken?
Lying to our parents on what we were smoking?
Solving all our problems with bottles and women?
Even though we knew were better off without them.

how can you sing along to ABR?

[SLoT]

lamb of god, dethklok, and improving songs about plinko.

[bowl of oranges]

how can you sing along to ABR?was wondering the same thing...

[ShimmerAndSpill]

Just makes no sense.

[wewascontenders]

ABR is doable, but heavy heavy low low doesn't even have audible lyrics.

[bowl of oranges]

ABR is doable, but heavy heavy low low doesn't even have audible lyrics.haha i didn't even see them!

[ShimmerAndSpill]

ABR is doable, but heavy heavy low low doesn't even have audible lyrics.

No, i don't think ABR is do able. It would just be chanting and what not. NFG and SYG are good sing-along bands i find.

[wewascontenders]

No, i don't think ABR is do able. It would just be chanting and what not. NFG and SYG are good sing-along bands i find.

not if you can scream.

[bowl of oranges]

not if you can scream.but you'd look/sound like a bunch of idiots

[wewascontenders]

but you'd look/sound like a bunch of idiots

yes, but it can be done.

[ShimmerAndSpill]

yes, but it can be done.

a lot of people can't scream, and most who do sound like shit.

[wewascontenders]

a lot of people can't scream, and most who do sound like shit.

okay. your point?

[ShimmerAndSpill]

okay. your point?


ABR do not have good sing along songs.

[Jumpoff]

Singing along with friends barely ever sounds good, I don't think anyone does it outside of just having fun... Obviously it's not going to sound good for screaming either.

[wewascontenders]

ABR do not have good sing along songs.

let's read the title again, shall we.

[ShimmerAndSpill]

let's read the title again, shall we.

Sing alongs that sound bad aren't fun, they're just awkward.

[Jumpoff]

Sing alongs that sound bad aren't fun, they're just awkward.

I don't know about your friends, but my friends aren't exactly what I'd call skilled in the vocal department. Singing along is fun regardless of how bad it sounds... it's actually easier with screaming for a band like ABR than singing some songs... (consdering ABR's scream isn't that hard. It's not like he said he sings along to converge...)

Niether are a number of mine, especially the ones who listen to ABR, we've actually tried singing along to bands like these, it never works.

[wewascontenders]

i'd have to disagree, any song can be fun as long as you and your friends aren't douche bag perfectionists (not directed at you). and i also just realized i'm arguing on august burns red's behalf which i would rather not do.

haha, my friends think they're douche bag perfectionists, sometimes.

[kearn1tm]

There's nothing like going home from college to see all your buddies during a holiday, where you all congregate to one of the friend's houses which invariably has all of said friend's family there. The family all want to say high to friend's buddies, of course and have them join in on Christmas Caroling.

Last year, all seven of us just starting singing Death From Above 1979's Pull Out until everyone gave us the oddest looks. Nothing like singing about pulling that bad boy out before you dispense the pearly soup around a family to liven things up and invoke the spirit of togetherness.

[Renee]

any song can be fun

and isn't that what this tread is about?


who cares if there's "screaming" or if the song is do able or not.
if you have fun, that's what matters.


and most songs that are sang, end up being screamed and sound inaudible when sang with friends for fun.

One of my points is that ABR is not fun to sing along to, that's just for me though.

[Renee]

none of my friends listen to the movielife (wtf, right?), so i just sing it loud when i'm by myself.

[HangsLikeHeaven]

Weezer's Say It Ain't So is fun around the campfire.

[Chris Fallon]

Def Leppard songs

[RickRoll]

Weezer-El Scorcho
Green Day-Basketcase and Hitchin' a Ride
Queen-Bohemian Rhapsody(duh)
U2-New Year's Day

[LV03]

i'm a big fan of the jukebox at the bars. I'll usually put on some old TBS or Say Anything to sing along to

[3mpire]

Queen used to be very popular at parties, especially Don't Stop Me Now and Bohemian..

My friends and I usually sing along to JEW, Blink and Set Your Goals in the car.

[SanePsychotic]
