This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Come one, come all you're just in time
To witness my first breakdown
'Cause there's a mile gone for every minute passed
When I'm stuck in this town
I've got a bone to pick with you, Mr. DJ
The traffic in this town is just as bad as it is in L.A.
So go on and lock me up
You better throw away that key
Before I find out where you broadcast from
Because your playlist is killing me
I'll change that station
Light it up like the 4th of July
It's me, I'm caller fifteen
Time to play my last request
Come one, come all, you're just in time
To witness my first breakdown
'Cause there's a mile gone for every minute passed
When I'm wasting space in this town
Don't call the doctors, I don't need no medication
I just need one more vacation and make it last
Hear me out please, judge and jury
I'm an innocent man
And it would be such a terrible injustice
To put me away without thinking about
All the terrible mistakes
That goddamn radio jockey makes
I swear, he's out to get me
Oh, I swear he's out to get me
I'll change that station
Light it up like the 4th of July
It's me, I'm caller fifteen
But it's too late for explanations
This broadcast will be your last
Come one, come all, you're just in time
To witness my first breakdown
'Cause there's a mile gone for every minute passed
When I'm wasting space in this town
Don't call the doctors, I don't need no medication
I just need one more vacation and make it last
Hear me out please, judge and jury
And I swear he's out to get me
Oh, I swear he's out to get me
Go on and lock me up
You better throw away that key
And I swear he's out to get me
Oh, I swear he's out to get me
I've got a bone to pick with you, Mr. DJ
You really oughta lock me up
Because your playlist is killing me
Come one, come all, you're just in time
To witness my first breakdown
'Cause there's a mile gone for every minute passed
When I'm wasting space in this town
Don't call the doctors, I don't need no medication
I just need one more vacation and make it last
To witness my first breakdown
'Cause there's a mile gone for every minute passed
When I'm stuck in this town
I've got a bone to pick with you, Mr. DJ
The traffic in this town is just as bad as it is in L.A.
So go on and lock me up
You better throw away that key
Before I find out where you broadcast from
Because your playlist is killing me

It's me, I'm caller fifteen
Time to play my last request
Come one, come all, you're just in time
To witness my first breakdown
'Cause there's a mile gone for every minute passed
When I'm wasting space in this town
Don't call the doctors, I don't need no medication
I just need one more vacation and make it last
Hear me out please, judge and jury

Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
According to their interview for 100 bands you need to know in AP, it's about murdering the DJ who plays the same song over and over again.
omg i don't know what's wrong with people this is my favorite song on the album. personally i hate djs in gneneral and the fact that all time low wrote a song about it just is really funny to me. i mean yea, this song has like no depth or anything but it's just hillarious. you people are all crazy.
this song is about alex wanting the DJ's on the radio. i kind of agree with him, coming from maryland, the radio stations suckkkk. and they keep repreating the same shit over and over.
Well, this is a good interpretation.
This is actually my favorite song on the album, and I disagree when everyone says it has no depth.
Honestly, I don't know what the TRUE meaning of this song is. But this is what it means to ME: I always connect certain songs with certain people. And for me and my ex-bf, music was a HUGE part of our relationship. After we broke up, it seemed as if every single freaking time I turned on the radio, I would hear a song that connected with some sort of memory of him. It was driving me so crazy, to the point where I can't even listen to the radio anymore. It's like, I wanted to get over him so badly but I couldn't get away from all the reminders, so I just broke down. So for me, this song worked PERFECTLY.
Tha's just my opinion on what the song means for me though.
it sound realllllly similar to the ataris - radio #2 to me. :-/
IT reminds me of the bad little sibling of Break out! Break out!
sounds like alex wrote after a bad day stuck in traffic. which would make sense being he hates traffic.
i agree. this song is really good.
i forgot to add murder* lol
