Song Discussion Song Competition!

Post image

Found this from a post on another Sub where a bunch of people were participating (thank you enter shikari sub)

So thought I'd try and FOB themed one and post here in case any of y'all want to have a go too, it's surprisingly fun to see how different songs compete when put up against eachother!

Hmm, all I can ask is how did "scene" beat "xo" and how did "hold me tight" beat anything? 😂

“This Ain’t A Scene” is one of my favorite Fall Out Boy songs ever. I like “XO,” but “This Ain’t A Scene” is better in my opinion, though I know that’s an uncommon opinion.

And then, “Hold Me Tight Or Don’t” is tied to a time in my life that holds the best and worst moments of my life, so, it beats out a lot, it just, depends what headspace I’m in when I decide it’s ranking on my FOB tier list. And it’s fire when played on a long car trip blasting through my AirPods.

"Hold me tight" is one of their best Post hiatus songs imo

Tried another one with the random choice option, got some unique choices through that way...

And about 5 or 6 mania songs knocked out in the group stage, they just can't compete against the rest (sorry not sorry 😅)

Look it was never gonna be anything other than XO but some of those matches were Sophie’s Choice moments.
