Brand New - Failure By Design

[noteshade]

they really don't believe in filler

[levicrouchgmailcom]

I lost my virginity to this. Just saying.

[djt1967ss]

@levicrouchgmailcom

Because your cock was failure by design

[someoneone]

@levicrouchgmailcom lost my virginity in a public park that nobody likes to visit

[stapledhearts]

@levicrouchgmailcom Lost mine in a friend's room with a girl who I just met at a party while black out drunk. I had an interesting freshman year.

[TRIPPYtheHIPPYboy]

We don't believe in filler, baby. If I could I'd sit this out. <3

[kaitxcore]

I love Brand New! This song is so good. <3

[CaptainDaphy]

Do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do.

[DropssLikeStars]

WTH this is not country music nakedspaniard!

[nakedspaniard]

ill never like country music

[cooldude2154]

forever my least faovrite band my sister made me listen its stupid and no one has respect for classic rock

[anthonysjb]

@cooldude2154

cool story, bro.

[thefalloftroy9]

@cooldude2154 god damn you are stupid

[BrandonRecondite]

@cooldude2154 you like balls...big ron jeremy porn balls

[cooldude2154]

@BrandonRecondite fuck you u little basterd i hate u and i am not gay u can go suck and ur dads probably got no hair probably microscopic jack ass pussy ass dick u little piss so kiss my ass and go fuck ur mom and dad

[BrandonRecondite]

@cooldude2154 This my friends is a sad sad case of a guilty conscience. He has no means of release and therefore projects his life experiences on to others as a way of coping with his closeted homosexuality and raging love for butt-fucking every member of his inbred family. I'm sorry that you can no longer fart and make a noise man...

[cooldude2154]

@BrandonRecondite so uh still being a stupid dick ass mother fucker who cant freaking get a life because i dont like this song and my sister made me look at it I'm homo huh uh no you are stupid gay five year old.

[BrandonRecondite]

@cooldude2154 Dude...this was over...and go get some form of education. You have the grammatical ability of sling blade singing at a waka flocka concert.. Chill out and finish having sex with your dog so you aren't so high strung.

[JamesDowdyBN1]

Forever my favorite band because of Jesse Lacey, What a beautiful man.

[norcalgirlforlife]

Wow, bands like Brand New and the like have become my oldies.

[PunxRevenge69]

I can't get enough of this album.

[eddiesgun214]

Sadly, this will always be my theme song come finals week.

Was in high school. Still is in college...

[S0uRxCHAMPAGNE]

@eddiesgun214 im another day late and one year older :(

[TinaB1990]

@eddiesgun214 lol...same here! This song is currently on repeat for me right now as I try to survive my midterm period. It's so weird because my first boyfriend in grade nine actually got me into them with this song. I am now in my 4th year of university and still listening to them even though I haven't talked to him in years :|.

[serenduckity]

@eddiesgun214 Literally my exact same sentiment... ♪ No one sleeps till we get this shit out on the shelves ♪

[Jester0004]

"We don't believe in filler" means that they wont add a filler track to their album. They will perfect every song, and make sure every song is a hit. Which if you read the lyrics, it shows of the struggle of trying to put out a song on time, without half-assing it.

[guitarupfrontt]

my friend put the lyrics to this on her facebook before she killed herself.

[xFumblez]

I FIND THIS HUMOUROUS.

[mjm2z]

@guitarupfrontt dude thats terrible

[Mitch81596]

11 failed by design



[CallsignPatriot]

@Mitch81596 You do realize that Jesse failed by design too, correct?

[NJsnowboardsKGB]

11 people are dumb.

[Ronnyisthegreatest]

In the chorus of this song where they kind of talk over each other reminds me of another one of their songs. And i cant even begin to think about how the song goes. Anyone have any idea??

[182182TheBlink182182]

@Ronnyisthegreatest --70 times 7??

[Ronnyisthegreatest]

@182182TheBlink182182 No, i finally found it out. It was Sic Transit Gloria.

[darkmoon66]

This song is awful, especially in comparison to the stuff on Devil and God / Daisy.

[blinkmefx]

@darkmoon66 daisy is awful. most of it's not even music. it's just.....noise. "your favorite weapon", "deja entendu", and "the devil and god are raging inside of me" = quality

[jayzee5035]

@blinkmefx Daisy is amazing xD Along with the rest of their songs. All their music is amazing xD

[CommunityServesUs]

@darkmoon66 are you fucking high, that shit is the bad stuff.

[robslater90]

@CommunityServesUs No it's the good stuff!

[CommunityServesUs]

@CommunityServesUs well, i guess people just have different taste in different in a bands Music?

[pixiedust237]

@darkmoon66 Are you retarded?? Daisy sounds like shit. This is what Brand New sounds like. If you dont like it then you dont like Brand New

[darkmoon66]

@pixiedust237 if you really believe that Your Favorite Weapon is better than Devil and God and Daisy you clearly have horrible taste in music.

[anthonysjb]

@darkmoon66

no, i deffinitely think the same.

yfw is their best stuff by far.

[scrumpyJ5]

@pixiedust237 'This is what Brand New sounds like'? If there's anything that anyone knows about Brand New is that they have no defined, absolute sound. Both this and Daisy are quality in their own ways. YFW is good because you know that's when they were starting out and Daisy is a later sound of their progression. YFW is their weakest work because it is the most generic, but that's not to say it's a bad album at all. It's just youthful and they probably knew they'd write better things.

[robslater90]

@pixiedust237 Dude Daisy is amazing, you just got to take more time getting into it. Not as catchy but alot more interesting. It's waaaay better than their first album.

[fallforthesky11]

@darkmoon66 I actually think Your Favorite Weapon might be my favorite Brand New Album. Deja Entendu is amazing but almost every song has the same structed, quiet verses and loud choruses. It's not a bad thing but it's predictable. Devil and God is a great album too but I just like this stuff better.

[nickrivera1234567]

this song reminds me of a red dodge caravan and mint lip gloss, fucking great.

[kayyocep]

BRAND NEW IS AMAZING.

[XEmoElmo]

I hope they stay underrated, i think they're better that way and it would only be about the music not the money

[nickrivera1234567]

ughhh =/

[Jinisinsane]

Haha I just got sent home because by blood pressure soared to 140/100 yesterday,Now I have nothing to do in my dorm because I was advised to rest for a day,Now its 1 am and im listening to this kick ass song.

[Magnumxl711]

This song describes me pretty well, I have a shit load of homework left to do tonight, its already 2 am, and I cant just BS it, it has to be grade A material, because I don't believe in filler, baby, but if i could i'd sit this out.

[XxPrincessEllexX92]

Your Lyrics Are A Little Messed Up, You Should Fix Em Up A Little

[superganjaaaa]

sick song I love emo punk

[inluvwithBJsince2005]

this is one more late night basement song

[EsmeSD]

Amazing Guitar But The Voice Is Just Too Much Like Busted

[daBlackBaron13]

I'm out of everything.

No one sleeps until we get this shit out on the shelves.

It's late, I'm faltering.

but this time I got nothing to say besides...

DO DO DO, DO DO DO

Ain't it the truth, my brother, my lord?

[aly710]

this is pretty much my life.

[kenzandmom]

i luvv this song and band!! omgsh

[Swiftlygothedays]

Not to mention, I have a lab report to write, and 40 math problems to do. One more sleepless night.

[Swiftlygothedays]

This has been my theme song since I was 12. Nothing has changed through these years.

[njdohass]

@Swiftlygothedays me too man

[ISykos1sI]

I want to have sex with this band!

[Mnizzle420]

in high school this band is what i lived for, shit just changed everything! love em'

[MrDaveeness]

This songs just means so much to me... I made a Youtube account just to make guitar covers and this was the first one i chose. :] If anyone wants to check it out at my channel go for it and I'll make more! I'm not amazing but hey it's Brand New right? :P

[Blaque1002]

Why does this remind me of "Say It Ain't So" by Weezer?

[oOoScreamXxX]

probably the unique distortion in the guitars which is in both songs. i havent heard it in alot of other songs.

[LackoJam]

it doesn't

[SheSellsSanctuaryy]

I love Brand New!!!!!!!!!!!!! damnnnnnnnn xxoo

[fruitluver899]

@hahalala134

me 2

[adambraller971]

haahaha great song i started listerning to this song coz of drake lawls midnight trip to wal-mart lol

[kylerguitarist]

this song kicks ass yo

[hahalala134]

haha i started listening to this song after watching drakes trip to wall-mart off of his youtube channel drakeLAWL

[xxvelvetinmyveinsxx]

@hahalala134 haha me too

[banloo29]

i love this band! i was making a play list when i accidental clicked it and it was the best!

[Musicmaster182]

Whats this about? Like all of brand news songs have all this deep meaning. i dont get this one :O (sorry)

its a sick song though :)

[Xxsoon2bxX]

fuckin amazing song and band

[Punkrockrulez]

♥

[onebadponygt89]

i love brand new, great song

[XxBlackxxDiamondsxX]

oh i love this<3

[savethedamsel]

well.... they sound kinda a like but they are two different songs... i can play both and they are nowhere near the same tabs so your stupid.. and ps... this songs ten million times better :)

[pageseventyfive]

Well if you knew anything about music, you would know the tabs don't have to be the same. It could be in a different key

[pageseventyfive]

This song is totally ripped off from Built to Spills' "Distopian Dream Girl". Look it up. Brand New has covered Built to Spill and they are obviously fans. They're both still god songs though.

[3dgizdabestt]

i looked it up, didn't really notice any similarities.... at all.

[pageseventyfive]

Then you're fucking stupid.

[xskeetskeetdinosaur]

LOL stupid for opinions. Gotta love people these days [:

[freekdrmmr]

there kinda the same but its not "totally ripped off"

[pageseventyfive]

No, I probably should have worded that differently. What I meant is the guitar parts are the same.

[stoopkid827]

haha and they'd most likely admit to it. and if you can't see the similarities in the guitar parts, you are pretty fucking stupid.

[Jakeiskwl]

That song is terrible. Dont you dare compare them to Brand New. The nerve of some people.

[CATastrophiclovers]

Despite this song being about the tyranny of trying to finish off an album, the lyrics are uncannily true to my life at the moment... I'm so sick it's not even funny, frustrated because I'm half a world away from everyone I love and get angry constantly just because people are trying to help. Oh and also, becoming a recluse! Fantastic song, definitely one of my favourites.

[MarlboroShinobi]

god this brings me back to long island.

[mattgener]

this music brings me back to the good ol days

[gahlex]

still my favorite. <3

[insertnameplz1]

wow this song just like captivated me.. so great.

[FuckyouBrookex33x]

Oddly...

I really like this song...

:]

[biconditionals]

Don't you all listen to the lyrics? It's totally about procrastinating while recording their album.

[GuckFoogle]

yea it is but it can be applied to so many other scenarios which is what makes them so great

[hurleyskateava]

what is a filler exactly?

[footpedalscott]

a filler is song on an album that is there to take up space. a band might want an album to have a specific number of songs, and if they don't have enough good songs to fill that number, they use fillers to make their cd longer.

[yamanick92]

i.e. tatuo?

[footpedalscott]

I actually enjoy that song. It is a great intro to blend into Sic Transit Gloria

[yamanick92]

@footpedalscott aw no lie no lie, it's not a song that i skip or anything, that's still a good song, perfect with sic transit, yes.

[footpedalscott]

Oh ha ha I see

[remoscreamodrummin]

idk, but my last name is FILLA so my friends and i sing it "dont believe in FILLA baby" hahaha and thats my nick name

[armyman736]

i don think it's about suicide. i think it's just about procrastination in general. i mean almost everything in the lyrics talks about how he is putting whatever he is doing off.

[Skate4flips]

this is a great song

[frickingidiot543]

oo i like this song!

[zappaballoon]

I kill myself because I'm so frustrated.

kinda obvi :P

[CriMxDelAxCriM]

did you really just say obvi hahaha

[jamesmcgrawx10]

ithink he did obvi is for bros and frat boys who arew losers

[CJtheGreat77]

Is this song about suicide? reply and let me know

[burdman0606]

this song is just about how they hate putting fillers in their cds

[CJtheGreat77]

now see thats what i think. But my friend in my band thinks its about suicide. We were going to do a cover of the song, but he didnt want to because it was about suicide.

[Jereer5]

Nope... pretty sure that it's about the frustration that comes with trying to force creativity. It's about trying to work on your art and not being able to, so everything else in your life suffers as a result.

Or, as the guy below said, speaking a bit more literally, it's about how they hate putting filler in their cd's; they want each song to mean something so they "kill themselves" (meaning, push themselves to the breaking point) to churn out better quality stuff.

[Jereer5]

You also could say that it's about frustration/procrastination in general, too. I mean, I identify with it because I write books and I've been there, but I know my little sister understands it because she has a bad habit of putting off her essays for school until two a.m. the night before.

[CJtheGreat77]

Thanks Jareer. That's pretty much what I thought. Actually, I didn't put too much thought into it.

[revengeissweeterxx]

um. no.

it's procrastination.

[BR3AKUPBR3AKDOWN]

amazing song.

amazing band.

need i say more?

[bailee123ify]

@BR3AKUPBR3AKDOWN nope i think you covered it all... =] <3

[iatse17]

i love this song!

[hollywoodpurplehaze]

>.....but... im really drunk and its late... stumbled on this not my typical style but i like it!!! nollie 360 flip my bad i'm skatin dgk all day!!!!!!!!!

[hollywoodpurplehaze]

like it

[cttaylor01]

No this is the only song he swears in on CD....However in concert he will through the F bomb in the lyrics to 70times7...."I hope you choke and die"...Is changed to "I hope you fuckin die".

[Sw33tp3a90]

I think this is the only song they swear in. Just an interesting observation.

[RoseOnlineU]

in archers there is the line "you were freezing over hell"

but this song, archers and 7X70 are my favs :)

[CRCody]

hell isn't a swear word, dawg

[RoseOnlineU]

Some people get touchy for "hell" and "shut up" LOL

No idea why.

[lynch92]

Yeah, people like that need to grow some balls

lmao!

[14HiddenFlame1]

i havent heard this song in 4 ever. FAV :P

[crystalBALLZZZ]

man new brand new stinks its all whineing at least this tune and acouple others are pritty good

[ikilledhannahmontana]

maybe hes referring to the same thing SUM 41 is in ALL KILLER NO FILLER .

still im curious.

[rubiconrocker]

i love ur name.

[hawtpotato90210]

"we don't believe in filler baby but can I sit this out" is in contrast to the "do doo doo" part.

[mygirlfriendismusic]

@ikilledhannahmontana

filler is a term used by musicians to describe songs that are written simply "fill" an album. usually, a band will have a song(s) in mind that they'll invest more time to record and make a video for. "filler" songs are just songs that they might not have spent much time on or songs that the band didn't really care about.

[ikilledhannahmontana]

anyone know what it means when he jesse says

"and we dont believe in fller "

[KMCMATT1]

I believe he's referring to the fact that they need to write more songs to get the album out on time, but he's been procrastinating and he doesn't want to just add filler (filler is just basically bs used to fill up space).

[skate4lyfe2009]

that makes you a toolbag cwebb90uk

[MCFace07]

thanks for the upload =D

[cwebb90uk]

i might get some of these lyrics tattooed.

[manutd7ronaldo]

which ones were you thinking?

[cwebb90uk]

im not sure, there's loads of good ones.

Perhaps just Failure By Design.

[Quikxsilver17]

dude i was actually thinking of getting Am I Wrong tattooed across my back.

lol good to know im not alone

[xMyStorysEndingx]

This is a lesson in procrastination.

I kill myself because I'm so frustrated.

And every single second that I put it off, means another lonely night I got to race the clock.

.. that's my favorite parttt. (:

[RoseOnlineU]

omg, i was going to post that, but i went through comments :)

[xxashleybaby]

da doo doo, da doo doo

Come on every one join in HAHAHA

[ShoutaChan]

da doo doo, da doo doo

^___^

[mollwivani]

(8) da doo doo, da doo doo (8)

=]

[mygirlfriendismusic]

this song sounds suspiciously similar to Built to Spill's Distopian Dream Girl. whatever, this reminds me of my high school years.

[eminemgirl2000kr]

brand new is the shit

[andr123w]

a friend told me to listen to them also im unsure if i like them or not. what are some of the bands you like to listen to?

[laurend53]

:O This song is the shizz :]

[Topyftw]

Brand New has always understood me so fuckin well....

But this song, its me, right now, last night, tomorrow night, everyday, its me. Br& New pwns.

[gizzuworld]

this sound is so much better then the new stuff

[LAZYLAZERIOUS]

I liked this sound better than their new stuff

[caracullen]

I agree, but I wouldn't call them fags. This song is old, as well - they've changed since then.

[ShoutaChan]

I love it *___*

[trillionaireted]

Obligatory post regarding the "coonless" of the song.

[sourgummyworms95]

Jesse Lacey is my baby!! BRAND NEW is amazin

[IIurmomII]

me 2 wow bro ur mom really gets around

[gobblemup]

brandnew is on a completly different level than taking back sunday... taking back sunday to me went mainstream and made what ppl wanted to hear brand new stuck with their own inspiriations and keep growing you see this with every album they put out. always changing fucking love it
