Fun.: Carry On (Audio)

[gigglehead24]

Any CTFxC fans out there?

[clasala6]

Saw them 2 years ago, loved them then, loved it when he was in the Format, and I love them now. Glad to see them finally getting the notice that they deserve :) only sad part is now ticket prices will go up... I'm already broke!

[TCY2018]

this song's cool, hipsters aren't

[rainnyfunn]

So I just started looking at Fun song's, because let's be honest, We are Young.

I thought this was okay at first, then they started really singing, and I got shivers.

New Fun lover, right here :)

[Jmswlks]

This song probably sounds the most like The Format of all the songs on the new album, and that's a good thing! The "Some Nights Intro" sounds a lot like them too.

[RedlineLV]

This songs amazing. fun is one of best bands the meessage really helps you if your having a bad day

[MissAwkwardSwag]

i love this song so much i dont think anyone will understand my love for this song omg.

[Harusupex]

I'm going to see FUN. on 4:20!! Can't wait!!

[xblackrousex]

That solo from 2:38 to 2:55 is so Brian May :) lol

[DreamWeaver1988]

tHIS IS A GOOD SONG.

[trooperjoe73]

I dont think you understand Queen.

[mkaras4]

@trooperjoe73 are you saying you disagree with the comparisons between Fun. and Queen? Fun. has shown some of Queen's style going back to their first album, especially with Nate alongside Andrew Dost on piano.

[trooperjoe73]

@mkaras4 It's fair to compare, but to say they are the modern day Queen is erroneous. Do you know how many artists took their inspiration and ideas from Led Zepplin? It didn't make them the modern day Led Zepplin.  This is a young group, putting out great music, with a ton of potential. Unfair comparisons and expectations, change the way people look at them. Just look at everyone that was compared to Michael Jordan. Judge them on their own merits.

[mkaras4]

@trooperjoe73 oh, I'll entirely agree that saying they're the modern day Queen is reaching and, well, entirely off. Like you said, certainly band early in its career and certainly a ton of potential.

[rgasp12]

The modern day Queen. Enough said.

[Jmswlks]

@rgasp12 "We Are Young" is their "We Are the Champions".

[mrctlover]

If you're lost and alone and you're sinking like a stone carry on. May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground carry on... :)

[servivian]

i love them so much<3

[MrAic7]

remember all the pretty girls

[MegaDuderanch]

Ive been looking for you Freddie M.

[15coloradogirl]

@MegaDuderanch he sounds just like him right? well almost :)

[radicaldreamerkid1]

Fun. and Steel Train 4EVER <3

[Drewcifer6789]

new favorite song

[dontshoottheyeti]

Is emily moore still with them?

[SpawnofDarkness3]

The Guitar sounds like Special Red

[perfectblackdot]

he starts singing, i start stripping,

[musicvampsguys]

his voice is so dreamy <3

[AlienCow6991]

@girlanachronismDD lol Nate (the singer) is the singer from The Format

[dangab111]

If you're lost and alone or you're sinking like a stone, carry on.

May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground and carry on, carry on, carry on!!

[girlanachronismDD]

They sound like the format.

[zippy2100]

@girlanachronismDD *facepalm.

[girlanachronismDD]

@zippy2100 Oops, well I was pretty spot on with that comment, no? lol

[emahlee26]

When can this album be bought in Australia? :(

[Ellasaysrawr]

Hit the dam replay button -3

[Musicmaster182]

Seeing them live at a special show in an hour. Be jealous. :)

[kaellamarie]

@edscizorhands Clearly you have an issue with your own sexuality. Admit it: Nate Ruess is stunning and when you look at him he gives you the butterflies. These things happen, just listen to the music.

[MrAsdfghjkl2330]

but i like to think i can cheat it all, to make up for the times ive been cheated on <3 fav line!

[edscizorhands]

These guys are talented for a bunch of queers

[MrOrangeRhinoceros]

@edscizorhands I don't know if the members are gay or not, but I don't see how that would effect their music.

[IGuessIllCallUrBluff]

Ironic how a band named "Fun." has so many bitter sweet and beautifully depressing songs.

[913zaira]

I dont know why long time fans get mad at new fans, like come on you should be happy that your favorite band is getting more recognition..

[concretespecial]

QUEEN~ I listen to this and just hear QUEEN.....

[brendanismyhero3]

@concretespecial I dont here queen with this band but have you heard of foxy shazam now that sounds like queen!

[EpicRubberband]

@brendanismyhero3 I freaking love Foxy Shazam, I thought they sounded like Queen too!

[VidraMala]

pure perfection!

[TatjanaHornof]

Honestly I thank Glee for helping me find this band. I love We Are Young. And so I didn't some digging on their music. AND THEY ARE AMAZING<3

[seepearson1]

Loved this band sense before they were formed. The Format was my favorite and it was heart breaking that they broke up but Fun is just fantastic! I love Aim and Ignite so much it is often what I'm listening to on my ipod. I have been waiting for this new CD for 2 years and Cannot wait to see them tomorrow at Zia. Nate, Andrew and Jack keep doing what your doing. I love you guys! And Jack keep it up with Steel Train too! You guys are fantastic!

[ElGoodo]

@seepearson1 "Loved this band SINCE before they were formed" ...not possible. Did you also love Nate before he was born?

[syngt]

Thanks to Chevy I found an amazing band :D

[Duckbearbonnell2014]

It's not the fact that I discovered a band before people or that a song is on the radio. It's the fact that all the douchy kids constantly sing the same song for four months straight which makes me not to want to listen to that song ever again. The radio and mainstream culture causes the music to get abused.

[abigailcaruana]

@Duckbearbonnell2014 UGH so true Iove them and think it's great they're becoming popular just hope it doesn't ruin them

[ElGoodo]

@Duckbearbonnell2014 Hmm...how to avoid hearing a song on the radio....hmmmmmm....AH HA! Don't listen to the radio. I have this thing called an iPod...and I never listen to the radio and I don't watch t.v., don't have cable in my dorm so I just watch what I want to watch online, and lastly, don't hang around douche bag kids, all these problems can be easily solved.

[jacobly46]

Track #3 on my personal breakup soundtrack

[Kanamein]

march 9th cant wait to hear this song and many others live :D

[bubblesluvsgleealot]

thumbs up if u think the dude in the glasses is hot :)

[123hey321]

great band

[rowanthecobra]

seeing them next wednesday! (: #fuckyes i cannot wait. omg.

[TheDeuceWins]

I love this song...thoroughly amazing.

[CaptinDuh]

Oh and you can't forget Andrew!!

[CaptinDuh]

I remember Nate from the format then to aim and ignite then to their "new" sound, and there new song is amazing because right here his voice sounds like Queen, and anyone who sounds like queen is amazing

[adamsteinbring]

Not at all surprised with Fun's surge in popularity. They deserve it. Who cares when you discovered them.

[Czesiowaxd]

@adamsteinbring who did?

[ilikeepotatoes]

i totally loved them from the start. then when people found the we are young song, they became obsessed.. okay.

[WiseAnt]

Can't hardly wait till Tuesday!

[sophiamama1]

This song makes me happy!

[iamjrocketeer]

You guys are on rails! Sounds amazing...can't wait for the album to be in my hands. Congrats on the amazing response. I'm definitely a FUN:FAN!

[Greenlightandgo]

Me before hearing this: You know there just isn't enough awesome guitar solos in songs anymore.

[FunDetonator]

This really reminds me of Queen! Holy shit <3

[CaitlinMutt]

The Drop!!~ OH my.....I cant wait for the album

[PaintMeInSunshine]

still great music.

still great quality.

still great fun.

<3

[freedomfry555]

Queen + Matt and Kim= Fun.

[MayzingAl]

*Dead* Nate's voice is just like WAHHH :)

[SweeterThanPinkCandy]

***Nate Ruess is from The Format***

[friedicee]

Epic guitar solo @2:35...reminds me of the best Billy Corgan guitar solos....

[batman7760]

i raped the replay button

[CampLo]

This sounds like The Format decided to start making good music

[MagicMan741]

23 people don't know how to have fun.

[Jmswlks]

This sounds like The Format and Flogging Molly had a baby.

[Fobsessed99]

My ears caught fire as he started singing the second verse. <3

[Lazerjo2000]

does it make sense that this song feels kinda irish?

[bward0531]

@Lazerjo2000 prolly because of the bagpipes.

[sophiamama1]

If your lost and alone or your sinking like a stone CARRY ON!!!!....love this song..on repeat!

[MrWwe32]

Wow!!! How have I missed these guys?/!!! Awesome!



[AddienaSaffir]

@MrWwe32 That is what i thought when i heard this. Like really self you missed out on this?! what was i hiding under a rock? jeez just so glad that i caught up with this trend.

[gabriavella]

My next favorite band :)

[rodmorrison1]

good!!

☺☺☺

[zzzzzushi]

cant wait for the new album! who's with me???? :D

[FrazzlesTheSquirl]

His lyrics tell a story, but his voice takes us on a journey

[zzzzzushi]

if they come back to town im going...for sure! they were so awesome!

[BluVortex]

I Wanna Be the One to Carry On

[oddymay]

Soooo Happy that they have a new album coming out! Sad it took so long, but happy it's finally happening! Ahhh! I know you'll get more popular when more people hear you <3

[requiemforatrain94]

Walk the Dog and Carry On

[nunesrafah]

Seems like Queen... AWESOME!!

[womanteria]

<3

[xstarbucksjunkie]

Can't stop listening to this song. I love it.

[twiligt1129]

I think this sounds like this albums version of " be calm"

[TheBKelly13]

@twiligt1129 I'd say it sounds like this albums "Carry On"

[dmgamboa]

@twiligt1129 Be Calm and Carry On?

[daniysworld]

I just love it! One of those bands you just can't stop listening too!!

[dougthedog32]

@Tonezone come on man. I love this song. I love fun. no one is in any position to tell them what kind of music to make. my point was that its hard to watch a band that i've liked since the format will be considered in the same group as some music that i dont like at all. sorry for whatever the hell it is i did to you. because your obviously just a much better person than i am.

[MusicsMyOnlyEscape]

I love this band a lot oh man. This is amazing.

[FrazzlesTheSquirl]

beautiful.

[antoniomearse]

why do their songs sound so EPIC?

[laurizzzle]

I can't stop listening to this song. I can't wait for the 21st so I can buy their album! I'm sure the whole thing is going to be amazing :3

[ColinWrites]

This is my band. This is your band. It doesn't matter how long you have been with them, we all feel it. We all Carry On.

[1112lovepink]

this song is awsome! i cant stop listening to it!!

[ZackandNickPresent]

God yes.... just yes...

[footballplayer50one]

Just found Fun. Thank God I did. They are truly amazing.

[katietheawkward]

I've loved Fun. for a year now and I can honestly say their music has reached me in a way that I've never experienced before. This song is a perfect example of that. These guys are meant to be something great, and I'm so proud of them for finally getting the attention they deserve. I love indie music and the idea of having a song to myself that the average person doesn't know, but that honestly won't stop me from loving Fun. and being proud that millions of others have found beauty in them too.

[kolaidman67]

Don't worry about them being mainstream, people. Look at Panic at the Disco. They enjoyed some success and then faded back into oblivion. If the hipsters had their way, fun. would have no 15 minutes of fame.

[RiseorDie420]

thumbs up if you were/still are a fan of the format

[XxRiOtALLTiMeLoWxX]

@RiseorDie420

lol i just spazzed out because i didnt know the lead singer was part of the format BUT IT ALL CLICKED TOGETHER asdfsfhj no wonder why his voice is so familiar

[Amari0s]

Dude. The instrumental on "All Alone" is BADASS. I feel a freestyle coming on

[DONTREADTHS]

They remind me of mumford and sons



[justiceking1994]

@DONTREADTHS holy shit yes the american version though

[machz5605]

ok the reason cobra starship is around fun. is because they are on the same record label!

[dougthedog32]

#1 on itunes.. call me a hipster, but I liked it better when you'd tell people their name, you'd get a crazy look, and when you finally get the person to listen to them, there's another fan. nate ruess is a tremendous lyricist, but the fact that this will be dragged into the 'mainstream' is disgraceful.

[xnorcrossx]

@dougthedog32 Be happy that people are realizing they are talented. They deserve recognition for how good this sounds:)

[TheHerpderpExpress]

@dougthedog32 you sound like an enormous hipster tool.

[lexxmaskell17]

@dougthedog32 couldn't agree more. I loved the reaction on someone's face when I told them "oh, yeah, I love fun." and they'd give the strangest look and be all happy with response of "OMG me too". No, I mean the band idiot. Same thing. Just so sad and it feels like I've lost that awesome music that no one else had, but I did...

[kolaidman67]

@dougthedog32 its not disgraceful. you are a hipster

[Tonezone]

@dougthedog32 Get your head out of your snobbish ass and move along. You would probably be the first one claiming today's artist ruin music, when in fact music snobs and everything they stand for are the worst things to happen to music, IMO.

[HoldAgainstAres]

FUN. NUMBER ONE ON ITUNES? yeaaaaaaaaaaahhh they are.

[TheSmrtAlec]

Quick call John Milton!!!! I found paradise and it's called Fun.!!!!

[preludepatriots]

whats up with cobra shit all over these guys. They are related or?

[kolaidman67]

@preludepatriots same label

[preludepatriots]

I like turtles

[xForkinxRediculousx]

Nate's voice, Andrew's keyboard bashing.. oh gosh this is too perfect. <3

[bubbles3520]

Keep "Calm" and "Carry On" Listening to FUN :)

[dmgamboa]

Just when I thought Some Nights was going to be subpar. I love you guys. Keep 'em coming.

[Jdaddy997]

cobra starship still looks like an asshole

[wednesdayswithrhetta]

I EAT SO MUCH RAMEN JUST SUPPORT FUN!

[jcanze11]

I come to comment on this and look at that, the comment before me is my sister. I LOVE NATE RUESS <3 He has such a different voice and always stays true to his unique sound in all of his music. I was obsessed in the days of Interventions and Lullabies and I still am. No matter how popular they are, I'll be at every show I possibly can be

[maryunleaded]

I have loved Nate Ruess for the past 6 years of my life. He is absolutely amazing and so talented and I'm so glad he stays true to his own unique style. I was heartbroken when The Format broke up, but thanks to fun., my heart has been mended <3 can't wait to see you guys perform in Michigan in April!

[BDIDDY2526]

its a TRAVESTY most of us are just hearing of this group..........They are baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!!

[hpgenius100]

holy crap this is AWESOME! fun. is back! for a moment i thought they were lost to mainstream soundalikes.

[AbominableToast]

Be Calm and Carry On.

[ajanatorfly]

@xfrancesK but the song is Be Calm.....

[AbominableToast]

@xfrancesK Be calm is another of their songs. I said it like that for a reason.

[mkaras4]

@AbominableToast lol'd @ everyone's NO WAIT U WRONG reactions

[MrCaliber199]

Only band that turns me, a very manly man, into a little school girl.

True Story. 

[Jdaddy997]

cobra starship looks like a fuckin asshole

[yanyyanz]

Brilliant

[chazfosse]

I love this because not only is this album completely new and as good as the first, but they also retained their original sound and I'm so happy!

[hynesa02]

@chazfosse you've heard the album?

[tenaciousbynumbers]

I looooooove FUN.

[NessoftheLoch]

I am so happy that Fun. is finally getting some of the recognition they truly deserve. They are so magnificent that they were bound to spread to the farthest reaches of the music scene. I wish they could continually stay my own little precious secret, but I also want them the most success possible. I hope all of you who come here enjoy their music as much as I have.

[TheFunkyMuff1n]

@NessoftheLoch Thank you for discovering this band before a single person knew of them. You are truly the original fan, you should be proud of yourself. Also whenever a friend mentions Fun., you should tell them they are fake fans and you liked Fun. before them - Just like people do with other trivial things like favorite football teams... This comment was dripping with sarcasm.

[poblos432]

Is it only reminds me that voice ,the voice of Freddie Mercury?

[KonnerScottMusic]

@poblos432 i always introduce them to people as a modern day queen

[AlligatorBombaytrays]

@KonnerScottMusic i always say they're a modern day beatles. weird.

[metchieson]

Love this.

[iNickMidget09]

@Coolestkylie I am so, so sorry.

[DizzyBrat]

The more I hear from these guys the more I love their music. Powerful lyrics and powerful music!

[martafarr]

February 21st cannot come soon enough...

[RandomMusicGirl7591]

It's amazing! <3 :D

[Marialeberry]

carry o o oo ooooon :D

[tebow555]

It kind of disappoints me that the top comments aren't about how awesome of a song this is..

[ExternalTooth]

@tebow555 Neither is yours, really.

[SamanthaElaine12]

this song makes me feel like how a fat girl would at an adele concert :)

[CArrigoProductions]

Album. Now?

[griff5476]

should be called fun bags

[chadapillar1984]

Whoa this has crazy amounts of views for only being up a short. This album is going to be big.
