Listening Party! Track by Track: YSP!WSD!
It's a party at my place!! No not really, I'm just listening to "You Say Party! We Say Die!" But it sure feels like a party in here.
Here's are my thoughts as I write them down while listening to each track from their album LOSE ALL TIME (with maybe a beer or two) .
1. Five Year Plan
Woah, if the first 30 seconds of this song doesn't hook you into loving it, there is no hope for you. In fact, stop reading this and go back listening to whatever crap you've been listening to.
"the chemicals in our bodies...."
"will you take my place for a while?"
Will you please take her place for a while? Will ya?! Cmon! Nobody will notice!
2. Downtown Mayors Goodnight, Alley Kids Rule!
I love the way she says "all is stirrrl... shhhh!". I have no idea where she got that lovely accent to roll her L's like that. Can someone explain?
3. Opportunity
"COME IN CLOSER!!"
Not sure what this song is trying to say...
But I love the pace... awesome guitar too.
4. Teenage Hit Wonder
Ok I get it... you just want to be friends! Yeah yeah?
The way she sings "You said" is difficult to get out of my head. I can't help singing along in her ridiculous pitch. It's 12:19am, and my neighbors probably think I've gone bonkers.
5. Monster
Wow.... It's so different than their other songs, but it's just so fucking nice. The song just gets better as it nears the end. Perfect.
One of my favorite videos.
Woah she's hot too!
6. Like I Give A Care
THIS IS THE BEST FUCKING SONG ON THE ALBUM. I can see myself going completely nuts with this song at one of their live shows (I have to wait 'till 2011). I might want to fly out to Canada just for this song.
"SHUT OUT THE WORLD SHUT IT SHUT IT OUT!!"
7. Poison
Just when you think it couldn't get better, we get this. We are at the peak and reached the maximum velocity of this roller coaster ride.
I think I understand the concept of this album now. It's all about paranoia and the irrational fear of being caved in by unseen walls.
8. Moon
Alright.... it's not over yet.
Holy crap. I am going to shout out these lines for the rest of my life:
"IT WAS FOR THE SUN IT WAS FOR THE SUN!!!!!!!!"

Fuckin' A it was!
9. Giant Hands
Love the visuals in my head when listening to this. For some reason it reminds me of the Seinfeld "man hands" episode.
I can't believe how many ridiculously catchy and memorable phrases there are in this album. For example, in this song you got...
"LIIIIIIIIIIEEEES"
and
"My giant hands..."
forever implanted in my inner ear.
P.S. Sorry for all the caps. There is no other way to convey her voice and lyrics.
10. You're Almost There
Damn... it's almost over! I can see the finish line.
11. Dancefloor Destroyer
Good fucking lord. Looking at the track title, you'd think this song would be the baddest beat infused dance song of the year. But it's not! Instead it's FUCKING GENIUS. It's exactly what it says it is ... a song about her mother. Correction... her "muuuuthherhrrrrrr".
This is fucking beautiful and brilliant.
12. Quiet World
Wise words: "Don't say goodbye, say good journey"
This album isn't just pure sugary ear candy. It's full of good advice with vitamins and shit for your soul.
Hmmm... I don't think I can sleep. Well fuck, this track is 22 minutes long. I guess they added 18 minutes of noise and silence so you could pass out easier after a night of partying (or drinking alone in your apartment).
Ok. Time for bed. Bye.... I mean Good Journey to you all!
