My fav IDOTG songs Disc 1: Skinny, Mean Man No Soul The Church Channel Retarded in Love An Insult to the Dead (favorite song from D1) Disc 2: Vexed (favorite song from D2) About Falling You’re The Wanker, If Anyone Is Spores Plea The album reminds me of The Dark Knight because I was listening to it a lot from May - July 2018 when The Dark Knight hype was building. The film also reminds me of this album.
It was under the single release video on YouTube posted by Dine Alone Records so it's the best source we have right now.
One of my favorite elements of IDOTG is all the guest spots. I wish that was more common in indie rock.
It’s good but I was only picking the top 5 from both discs. Baby Girl, I’m a Blur is another one I really like but didn’t list.
The first song I heard from Say Anything was Wow, I Can Get Sexual Too and I didn’t like it at all. I still don’t. It doesn’t help that the girl I liked at the time was seeing other guys and was the one constantly playing the song.
I remember watching the Anaheim performance, think it might have been someone from AP that managed them. It was when Ahh...Men was premiered and I remember being in awe of such a raw, acoustic performance.
Sucks its a bad memory. I'm sure he removed that from the setlist, too, because of the image it promoted.
Yeah, the reason I disliked it at first is because the lyrics are really juvenile and dumb. I don’t care for any of the added songs from IARB, though.
Not sure I’m psyched to wait till January for 1-2 minute SA songs. Unless he’s adding more or redoing it, don’t think it’s a good move. Also, I have a lot of thoughts of IDOTG that I can’t write right now but one thing I never understood were the single choices for that album. Terrible terrible choices.
Hmmm the single choices for that album seem really obvious/solid to me. Only other I song could really hear as a single is "No Soul"
I just listened to IDTII all the way through for the first time ( I never finished it originally because I hated it ) and I kinda fell in love with it??? Which confuses it because I remember vehemently hating every single piece of it when I first listened to some of it whenever it was released??? Miles better than Anarchy, My Dear, which I can remember literally two songs from.
Funny thing: when SA was re-releasing IARB with ‘was a real boy,’ it was also set for Oct (2005), but then moved to Jan ‘06. Then to Feb ‘06...:
Gerard's part just seems super out of place and ruins an otherwise great song imo, but I can deal with it
Absolutely love Shiksa. IDOTG is my favorite SA album- I don't think there's a song I don't like, although there are some I like more than others.
