Count 'em One, Two, Three This Is the End You Left Me (I've always had a really random soft spot for this song. Maybe my favorite on the album besides We'll All Be) Girls Do What They Want
Fun fact about this record, the track sequencing was originally much different and Fearless decided to switch it all up last minute, despite what the band actually wanted. IMO, this album flowed much better before — I thought I’d get used to it eventually but the official version still sounds really disjointed to me.
CURRENT TOTALS We All Roll Along: 8 Count 'em One, Two, Three: 4 ---------- This Is the End: 8 Time to Go: 4 ---------- You Left Me: 1 I Must Be Dreaming: 11 ---------- Everything I Ask For: 7 Girls Do What They Want: 5 I expected You Left Me to get completely shut out. It's probably their worst song.
I’ll have to check later to be sure if this is right, I’m pretty sure it is but it’s been a while since I’ve listened to this record Time To Go I Must Be Dreaming Girls Everything I Ask For Into Your Arms Kiss And Sell This Is The End Whoever She Is We All Roll Along You Left Me Count Em We’ll All Be
IIRC the band didn’t want Count Em on the record, but Fearless reeeally wanted them to include an old song, so they compromised by recording the only song they thought would fit and revamping the bridge. The band also loved how the closer on ...Is A Real Boy had all of the background yelling and stuff going on, and they wanted theirnrecord to be like that. You can hear that influence coming through on songs like Time To Go, We’ll All Be, EIAF, and This Is The End (two theee four one!). This story’s been told a million times, but Squire realized very early on in the studio process that the band hadn’t written any songs in 3/4 for the record, so he came into the studio one day and told them he was going to run some errands and to have one written by the time he got back — but have no timeframe. When he came back after a few hours, they’d written Kiss And Sell.
