My Life In A Nutshell

27/4/17

WARNING: SEVERE RANT MODE

SO FALL OUT BOY CAME OUT WITH A NEW SONG TODAY, AND PERSONALLY I LOVE IT. ASK AIDEN AND LILLY, I WAS LITERALLY SCREAMING. 

MY PROBLEM IS THAT SO MANY PEOPLE ARE DISSING IT. THE SONG HASN'T EVEN BEEN OUT FOR 24 HOURS AND PEOPLE ARE ALREADY HATING ON IT. I UNDERSTAND HOW SOME PEOPLE ARE HATING ON IT BECAUSE IT HAS A VERY DIFFERENT FEEL FROM THEIR "USUAL" MUSIC. BUT I RECOMMEND SOMETHING.

IN AN INTERVIEW PETE EXPLAINED THE SONG AND VIDEO WHICH WAS REALLY HELPFUL. IF YOU'RE A FOB FAN, I REALLY RECOMMEND LISTENING TO IT. 

IN THE INTERVIEW, PETE HINTED THAT THE ALBUM IS GOING TO BE LIKE THIS SONG, YOUNG AND MENACE. HE ALSO SAID THAT HE KNEW EVERYONE WAS GOING TO HAVE MIXED FEELINGS ABOUT IT. ANOTHER THING HE SAID WAS THAT IT'S KIND OF BASED OFF OF REAL LIFE SITUATIONS, OR CAN BE INTERPRETED THAT WAY.

PERSONALLY, I THINK THE LYRICS KIND OF HINT AT HOW THIS SONG WILL CAUSE MIXED EMOTIONS.

  Oh, I only wrote this down to make you press rewind
And send a message that I was young and a menace

THAT'S LITERALLY SOME OF THE LYRICS. NOW I MIGHT BE WRONG, BECAUSE HEY, I'M JUST A CRAZY WEIRD TEENAGE GIRL, BUT STILL. 

I'VE COMMENTED ON A COUPLE YOUTUBE COMMENTS JUST BECAUSE I THINK THEY'RE BEING OVER-DRAMATIC.

NOW, YOU'RE ENTITLED TO HAVE AN OPINION. I CAN UNDERSTAND HOW SOME PEOPLE DON'T LIKE THE SONG. THERE ARE A FEW PARTS THAT I'M EVEN ON THE BORDERLINE OF LIKING IT OR NOT, BUT OTHERWISE I LOVE IT. BUT SOME COMMENTS ARE GOING WAY OVER THE TOP.

THEY'RE SAYING HOW FALL OUT BOY IS DEAD NOW, THAT THEY'RE TRASH, THEY'RE JUST DOING IT FOR MONEY NOW, AND A BUNCH OF OTHER TERRIBLE THINGS. NOW, I UNDERSTAND IF YOU SAY YOU DISLIKE IT AND YOU HAD HOPED FOR SOMETHING BETTER. BUT SERIOUSLY? SAYING COMMENTS LIKE THIS?

LIKE I SAID EARLIER, IN THE INTERVIEW PETE SAYS THAT HE KNOWS HOW THE SONG WILL GET MIXED FEELINGS. BUT HE ALSO SAID HOW HE'S JUST DOING SOMETHING HE LIKES. HE ALSO SAYS HOW HE KNOWS THAT PEOPLE WILL BE OVER CRITICAL.

AND HE'S RIGHT!!!

LIKE WOULD YOU SAY THESE THINGS TO THE BAND IN REAL LIFE, AND NOT YOUTUBE COMMENTS?!

BECAUSE I DON'T THINK YOU WOULD.

I'M SORRY FOR POSTING THIS. BUT I WAS SO HAPPY ABOUT THIS SONG RELEASE, AND THE SECOND I FINISHED WATCHING THE MUSIC VIDEO, I FOUND A MILLION OTHER PEOPLE DISSING IT AND SAYING IT WAS THE WORST THING THEY'VE EVER SEEN.

AND SOME PEOPLE ARE BEING NICE ABOUT, DON'T GET ME WRONG. I WATCHED ONE YOUTUBE VIDEO WHERE THE GIRL LOVED FOB BUT SHE WAS STILL NICE ABOUT IT. SHE SAID SOME MEAN THINGS, BUT IN THE NICEST WAY POSSIBLE. 

I RESPECT THAT. BUT I THINK SOME PEOPLE ARE JUST USING IT AS AN EXCUSE TO HATE ON SOMEONE. NOT A LOT, BUT A DECENT AMOUNT.

SO THIS IS HOW MY MOOD WENT FROM EXCITED AND HAPPY TO SERIOUS AND DISAPPOINTED IN PEOPLE ALL IN ABOUT 15 MINUTES.

SORRY FOR THE RANT, BUT THIS IS HOW I CALM MY EMOTIONS DOWN.
