My favorite thing about both of these is that they have amazing instrumentals and outros - Holly Wood Died is the better song though
hollywood died FAF is fucking GREAT don't get me wrong, but to consider it their best song is absurd. I am fine with considering HWD their best song. I think it's top 5 easily for me.
On what planet could "Holly Wood Died" possibly be considered their best song? I don't think "Fields and Fences" is their best song either, but there are a lot more qualities to that song that make it worthy of that title than there are in HWD.
I didnt think there would be this much backlash for a song with a crazy catchy chorus, great guitar solo and epic string jam ending winning over a folk song that pauses halfway through to become a different/better song
That’s because it doesn’t. It’s got a few good songs that are still the worst songs they wrote ... and the rest are soooooo much better.
I've always thought HWD was pretty much a consensus favorite among fans. Never would have expected it to be this divisive. Personally, it's definitely a top 3 favorite song from them.
