fall out boy - folie à deux poll

Jay-Z intro to Infinity On High is another awesome/bizarre moment...

that Jay cameo being so awkward and half-assed is the reason why the Wayne cameo surprised me

Well yeah, the Wayne cameo is obviously far superior.

I only realized this morning that Pharrell produced Folie à Deux.

he only did "w.a.m.s."

Pretty great Debbie Harry AND Lil Wayne cameos on this (compared to, I guess, Liza Minnelli turning up on Black Parade?)

he only did "w.a.m.s."

Ah, OK. You're right. I was reading an old review of the record this morning that seemed to imply he did the whole thing.

it was an extreme pleasure to discover the two "new" tracks on the believers never die comp, which i had never listened to before, are as good as anything on folie

guys

time doesn't care about anyone or anything

I WILL NEVER BELIEVE IN ANYTHING AGAIN

this is the best album ever

2013 is my Fall Out Boy discovery year. Finally got to this one. B-b-b-b-b-benzedrine! Oh hell yes!

welcome!

ooo baby you're a classic

blows my mind that there's a rock song w/ Lil Wayne on it that's actually pretty great

otm

ilm stanning for this album is truly one of its shining moments

being acknowledged by Wentz on twitter and immediately being like YO PETE FOLIE A DEUX WAS A CLASSIC was one of my shining moments of the last few months

i'm not
a crybaby
i'm
THE
crybaby

"nobody puts baby in the corner" is my favorite song even tho it has some o__O lyrics all over the place... esp the outro

haha i can never keep the titles on cork tree straight; is this the one that goes SO WEAR ME LIKE A LOCKET AROUND YOUR THROAT / I'LL WEIGH YOU DOWN I'LL WATCH YOU CHOKE / YOU LOOK SO GOOD IN BLUE / YOU LOOK SOOOOO GOOD IN BLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUE cuz yeah

i prefer cork to infinity (i don't blame you / for being you / but you can't blame me / for HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATING it) but folie is another thing entirely. singing along to this band is The Most Fun, Ever

yes, yes it is

damn, doing the lord's work

i almost wrote wentz an email after he posted that sad (well, self-pitying, but it is fall out boy) thing abt folie's reception and the subsequent tour and his solo album and etc.. wish i had. pete! folie a deux! i liked it!

i mean lol patrick stump. fuck pete wentz i guess.

Folie A Deux/Soul Punk is probably my favorite pair of back-to-back albums any one person has made in the last decade, it's really heartbreaking to hear the personal toll the reaction to those albums took on Patrick. at least the FOB comeback was kind of a happy conclusion to that period, but it still galls me that the world not only ignored those albums but actively made him miserable about them.

terrific album

oh baby, when they made me, they broke the mold
girls used to follow me around when i got cold

destined to bump this thread every two months

I will never believe in anything agaaaAAAAAAaaaaaAAAAAAiiinn

3 2 1 we go live

10 whole votes, huh.

my body is an orphanage
we take everyone in

are we gonna have some kind of Monumentour fap or multi-show ilx road trip?

omg

as soon as we hit the hospital i know we're gonna leave this town
and get new passports and get, get, get, get, get out now

wish i didn't i didn't i didn't i didn't i didn't i didn't i didn't i don't
just want to be a footnote
in someone else's happiness

little girl, you got me staring odd
or was that just a telescopic camera nod

the fact that disloyal order of water buffaloes didn't win this is blasphemous, even if coffee for closers is also pretty fuckin great

so I know nothing about FOB, but I did d/l this album because ILM, and I had Winamp on shuffle and this bombass awesome rock ballad type song comes on and I'm like what the fuck is this, and it was "What a Catch, Donnie". so different than what I had expected.

it's a jam! that's my favorite song on the album

Wrong album, but since this is the top FOB thead at the moment - I just heard "Snitches and Talkers..." for he first time today. Good song - new fave, actually - but I was struck by the use of the phrase "why put a new address on the same old loneliness" - doesn't that come from a Songs: Ohia track? I thought at first there was some older common origin they both knicked it from, but some quick googling turned up a thread on a MEC forum where Molina had this to say. Made me a bit sad:

These lyrics were stolen from me. I heard it first on the stereo at the Brown Elephant Charity shop in Chicago. I almost dropped the Elton John records I was buying. It really has hurt my feelings that this band has stolen these lyrics. I am owed.

Err, wrong track, it's at the end of "Get Busy Living..."

pete also borrowed a bunch of lyrics from the cold cave dude on infinity on high

really tender detail about the elton john records there. dang

head like a steel trap
wish i didn't
i didn't
i didn't
i didn't
i didn't
i didn't
i didn't
i don't

...just want to be a footNOTE in someone else's happinesssss

def the best FOB song

the only thing suicidal here is the door

turns out this record is pretty great. think “headfirst slide” is my pick.
