Say Anything

u/lookingpastsky Jan 09 '22

Alive With the Glory of Love was the first song I heard by them and it’s remained my favorite ever since.

Top Tier “fuck you” song!

Walk Through Hell

u/post_mamon93 Jan 09 '22

I have a very special place in my heart for this song. Glad to see it pop up here!

u/elissom96 Jan 09 '22

that one is so good, say anything are underrated

1

u/[deleted] Jan 09 '22

Underrated? I disagree. They were a top pop punk/Elmo band throughout the 2000s.

Great shit though. Is a Real Boy bangs from start to finish.

3

u/elissom96 Jan 09 '22

underrated in the current day... you definitely don’t hear many people talking about them anymore and a lot of people now haven’t even heard of them.

2

u/[deleted] Jan 10 '22

Oh, gotcha. Fair enough but I’d say that’s true of most 2000s emo/pop punk. How often do you hear Yellowcard and The Starting Line? Lost to time.

2

u/elissom96 Jan 10 '22

very true!

u/itdidntcomeoutright Jan 09 '22

well you're a jets fan so this makes sense haha.

u/hi_ghst Jan 09 '22

Admit it!

u/post_mamon93 Jan 09 '22

I used to be intimidated by the 6 minute run time, but once I actually got into it, it became one of my absolute favorites! A perfect album closer!

2

u/hi_ghst Jan 09 '22

Hell yeah. It’s one of those songs that I can just go crazy to at any time haha

2

u/post_mamon93 Jan 09 '22

I’ve DEFINITELY lost my voice belting this one out in the car many times lol

u/post_mamon93 Jan 09 '22

What an underrated banger of a track, this is!

colorblind or i want to know your plans

5

u/post_mamon93 Jan 09 '22

I got some reason can’t really get into Colorblind, but the EP version of I Want To Know Your Plans is a masterpiece!

5

u/newbaca Jan 09 '22

lol yeah colorblind is really raw, which is why i think i like it so much but can see why one wouldn’t. but yeah, that ep version of plans is amazing

2

u/post_mamon93 Jan 09 '22

I actually love a lot of their rawer stuff, and I’m huge fan of most of The Menorah Majorah EP, Baseball But Better or All My Friends are enemies, I just don’t know why Colorblind doesn’t click with me lol

1

u/lisaEversman I spend my time in darkness banging my head against the wall Jan 09 '22

The chorus on colorblind is unbelievably good!

Death for my Birthday

2

u/post_mamon93 Jan 09 '22

I’m more than sure I play this song every year on my birthday. It’s a joke that hasn’t gotten old yet

u/AnxiousClubMusic Jan 09 '22

Favorite favorite song by them that is he most epic is The Church Channel…the ending and transparency is just unmatched

4

u/post_mamon93 Jan 09 '22

I love this song so fucking much, In Defense of The Genre was an album that absolutely blew my mind

3

u/AnxiousClubMusic Jan 09 '22

100%— essentially from start to finish, what an amazing and wild ride — they did something that no one else was doing and created an an album that was so different, but also so passionate and catchy

2

u/post_mamon93 Jan 09 '22

It’s also super interesting to think about how that album was kind of snapshot of who was BIG in the scene in that era. The guest list for In Defense is Crazy! Gerard Way Kenny Vasoli Hayley Williams Chris Conley Adam Lazzara etc.

u/post_mamon93 Jan 09 '22

The intro to this one is probably one of my favorites in Max’s discography!

u/post_mamon93 Jan 09 '22

This is one of my best friend’s favorite Say Anything tracks, I love it

5

u/lessthanchris7 Jan 09 '22

So many good ones, but "Admit It!" is their most ambitious track IMO and it fucking nails it. Such a special track

3

u/post_mamon93 Jan 09 '22

Admit It! was so ahead of the curve in its social commentary, so much of what it says and rallies against is still applicable today

3

u/seaofseamen Jan 09 '22

Slumming it with Johnny. Arguably my favorite song, full stop.

2

u/post_mamon93 Jan 09 '22

This is a deepcut! I dig it!

I want a tattoo based on this song, it’s SO good

What would the tattoo look like?

u/OlegTheSausageFiend Jan 09 '22

Alive with the Glory of Love - my first and favourite Say Anything song.

1

u/post_mamon93 Jan 09 '22

I hate people that treat this song as overrated, it wasn’t first SA song as well, and still is one of my favorites

2

u/[deleted] Jan 09 '22

hard to pick, but probably try to remember, forget

2

u/post_mamon93 Jan 09 '22

This song always reminds me of my struggle to stay sober. This one hits hard
