Yeah, but they totally missed the point. Instead of a series of things stated in phases, it's just a pile of words.
Yeah that's probably true of all Fallout Boy songs generally.
Off the top of my head: Iraq, 9/11, the PATRIOT act, Afghanistan (and the withdrawal), Katrina, Obama, Trump (and maybe a mention for J6), the Ukraine war, the Uyghur genocide, Snowden, the Panama Papers, Epstein, the Gaza genocide, the Queen dying, and maybe a snarky verse referencing Liz Truss and the lettuce.
The pandemic, Maduro, something about Brexit and Nigel Farage, Elon Musk, Tim Cook, Bezos and Jensen Huang, Jewish space lasers, Netanyahu, bitcoin, Kim Jong Un, Xi Jinping, Modi, Julian Assange and Kim Dotcom.
all excellent contenders as well, yes, though I'm not sure Greene's space lasers insanity was a big enough "thing" to qualify for a verse
Pretty sure Trump is in the original.
Is he? Because I can recite the lyrics from memory and I can't recall singing anything about the tangerine toddler terrorist.
No, you're %100 correct, I had it mixed up with end of the world as we know it, but it doesn't call him by name it just says the word. I looked up both sets of lyrics. I just woke up, I hope that you and Billy Joel can forgive me. My coffee is still brewing.
funderstandable, have a nice day
I don’t know that we could do it. That song would be filled with [REDACTED].
The Undertaker throwing Mankind off the top of Hell In A Cell and through the announcers’ table.
You could probably do one longer than the original just from the trump administration
I came here expecting to find this in the comments. Lemmy does not disappoint. You are also 100% correct.
Billy Joel was a major baseball fan, so I expect some baseball references in the new song.
Home run records shatter in the 90's caused by steroids.
Yankee dominance in the 90's but couldn't win in 2001.
World Baseball Classic where the US doesn't win.
Dumpster Astros.
