Fall Out Boy: Infinity on High

Radio has a it's place and outlet in the media and our lives. Thou I don't it will ever be as great as it was in the Roaring twenties, but it is heard everyday more than some mothers hear from their childern. And the radio is everywhere, it is almost mandortory for car companies to install them in their cars. So there's music everywhere for everybody, but I choose at times to steer away from the mainstream its dulled to me. So instead I choose to listen to band music or live music, like one of my favorite cd Infinity on High by Fall Out Boy. Their cd starts out with the song 1.)Thriller featuring Jay-Z, which is a dedication to their fans and those who don't like what that they have become some what mainstream. Saying that it's not their fault or their choice that some scene childern love and adore them. That doesn't mean thou that they have changed, but with all the fans and crowds they win and lose. They will keep writing, sing, and performaning for their die hard fans. 2.)The takes over,the breaks over, speaks out to theri old fans who have dubbed the sell ots and Sell out boy. Saying that they can't act like they were never theri favorite band at one time. And that no matter what they do or say the media will always cut it up and disset it until it means nothing anymore to anybody. Like it or not people change like the season and so do their music, so just let it go. 3.)This ain't an scene, It's an arms race, states how there some indiviuals and circumstances that happen in peoples lives that just get blown out fo proportion, i.e the Pete Wentz photos. 4.)I'm like an Lawyer with the way I'm always trying to get you off(me & you), is just a song getting at the boys being famous does nothing for theri relationships. They have fame, fortune, but noth theri happliy ever after yet so two out of three ain't that bad. 5.)Hum Halleluujah, is a by chance love affair or attaraction you might have with someone you meet in a club or a resturant. And as your leaving you say all these nice things to eachother to never call one another again if ever. 6.) Golden ,takes a look at how the world loves you when your a celebrity but their not in love with you. 7.)Thnks fr th Mrms, the last time you might have with an ex or old flame, recalling on all the good and bad times. 8.)Don't you know who I think I am? Is your classic kiss off, to those who think the band should quit while theri ahead. 9.)The (After) life of the party, comments on how you can be so close to really accomplishing some big or important. When you caught a snag from your past that slows you down, so its time to cut that thung or person loose. 10.)The Carpal tunnel of love, is a reflective look on how you've grown, and how at times you might miss your old self. But you just have to tough it out and make it through another day. But you will always have thoes ice cream headaches to look back on. 11.)Bring the Doldrums, saying to all the ex fans that its ok, and that they forgive you. And that its easier to make up with an ex friend or fan than a lover. 11.) FameInfamy, to just stay to what your good at and not to become too cocky with whatever talents you may have. 12.) Your crashing but your no wave, how sometimes are world is corrupt and catch in their own stubborn ways. 13.)I 've got all this ringing in my ears but none on my fingers,the truth is in the end fall out boy is a good band, and that they have been for a long time. So no amount of hate mail can deter that and besides the best payback is another reward for best band of the year. Or thanking in them in one of your speechs, than I think it's real cute that at the end of this song they say "now press repeat". But all in all I really enjoyed this cd i had to listen to it a couple of times to get the meaning. It wasn't a bad experience so i coukd care less if i had to listen to it a dozen times. Just not all in a row, back to back, because even the best things lose there touch if their played out and soon they die.
