it is my 19th birthday today i've been listening to this song all day long and i did last year too.. i love it thank u max for creating this band and the number 1 birthday song!!!
i hate my birthdays, i feel really fucking empty for 24 hours every year, last year i woke up at 530pm, so i slept through the most of it, and had to deal with the crushing depression the whole night, it was terrible, this song makes me cry all the time
@thediaryofjane21 not on ...Is A Real Boy. it is on their EP Menorah/Majora. but i do agree with you ...Is A Real Boy is defiantly the climax of the this band in my book.
@russianglowsticks No, it's generally accepted as fact that people would like to hear all music in the highest quality possible, because it sounds better.
@newskateteam That would be cool. Although part of the reason I like these songs so much is the roughness of them. It just feels more...real? If that makes sense.
@dougsan123 Crappy quality? The quality of this song and their other early ones aren't that bad. They sound like they were recorded in at least a small scale studio.
@dougsan123 I agree... All I can think of when I listen to their older stuff is about how black and white photography helps the viewer better appreciate the shape and mood of a photograph when all the pretty colors are gone. It's raw, and the pure emotion of it is better experienced.
@newskateteam He/They won't until they stop making money. We petitioned the band for years and all we got was a Walk Through hell re-make and a rework of a hook into an IDoTG track.
This is without a doubt my favorite Say Anything song. I really connect with what Max is saying.
He's reflecting on his spiral into drug use, and how it's affected him. It didn't ruin his life or anything, but it left him feeling...disconnected. Not quite himself. Alienated from his personality and his friends.
He feels disgraced ("I have smoked away my pride") with how he went from enjoying that "spark", to ceaslessly chasing after a feeling he knows is gone. This song is really personal.
Donning business suits to show the faceless master what we're worth.
From our Huggies to Armani and it all seems so rehearsed.
We're chosing our options at school and talking about our future's and i'm 13.i want 2 live a little first before being depressed about money and all that stuff.they say we hav sum choice but they pressure us 2 do what they want. max's lyrics r so easy 2 relate 2.
dont ever get depressed about money, it doesn't mean shit... just live life the way that will make you the happiest thts wat i say ive fought major depression and thn i realized im just gonna fucking live... nvr grow up
Excuse me, I owe the unimaginable experience I had listening to this song to the step sister of the wildest and craziest child I've ever met. But it is her who = amazing. Thank you <3
i am a true say anything fan haha. i have all their songs that theyve ever made or played. thats a good place to start but wont give you everything. has most of it tho
Good for you, but people that leave comments usually leave comments on how good or bad the song is, most perferably how good it is. Saying that you own every cd out there and not saying that they rock or that they are badass shows that you arent a TRUE fan. Anyway, Say Anything rocks, and i dont have all their cd's cuz i cant find Junior/Menora/ or Baseball..but they still ROCK!
nearly cried when i listened to this on my 18th... story of my life

they should just do new songs instead of remaking old songs that they've already done.

I think the roughness of their old music gives it character. It shows just how much they've progressed.
