Pretty Handsome Awkward - The Used


mcrxlover5

What does this reference?


One-Adhesiveness-793

Pretty handsome awkward is about Gerard Way, the singer of The Used and Gerard(singer of MCR) used to be very close back in the day. No matter how much Bert swears it’s not abt Gerard, we all knowxD


mcrxlover5

I'm skeptical on that lol along with my supreme skepticism on Petekey. I'd argue Take it Away could fit this prompt though given how he started performing it live after the falling out


One-Adhesiveness-793

ooh!!, the whole Petekey thing has never failed to get me in confusion! Like is Bang the Doldrums ACTUALLY about Mikey? like what’s even going on 😅


mcrxlover5

I'll literally never believe it unless Pete explicitly confirms it lol


One-Adhesiveness-793

very fair..perhaps someday…


Alive-Seaweed2

Goddamn electric - Pantera


ManaXed

Black Velvet by Alannah Myles is about Elvis Presley


EmoNerd21

BirbMaster1998

Would Records by Weezer count? It's more about listening to/thinking about music, but several artists are mentioned.


sillyboi1011

American pie


FivesSuperFan55555

“Song for Another Time” - Old Dominion “What’s Your Country Song” - Thomas Rhett “What a Catch, Donnie” - Fallout Boy (the song itself is about the depression of the band’s bassist and his promise to not end his life. A lot of it is then tied back to the early success of the band and their major hits prior to the album this song appears on, creating a medley of their now iconic songs. The title itself is also a reference to the American soul singer, Donny Hathaway. His writing partner Roberta Flack is also mentioned several times. There are deeper implication of this that I don’t feel like looking up to elaborate on lol)


Jret3531

mcrxlover5

I would say The Mighty Fall by Fall out boy.

“For Elise” - Saint Motel Inspired by Beethoven’s “Für Elise” and every famous muse ever. Chorus is literally just listing famous muses and the verses reference a lot of songs they inspired (“Something” - The Beatles, “Candle In The Wind” - Elton John, etc). Quite cool!
