Husband of Kim Kardashian, what? Are we really going to generalize rappers again? lol I'm not the one generalizing rappers and football players

After hearing the album, I think there were better choices to follow up "Centuries". IMO "Irresistible" or "Novocaine" are more suitable as singles than this. I love "Novocaine" but I don't think it's really radio friendly. It reminds me of "Death Valley" from the last album, which was my favorite from that one. I hate "Irresistible" though. I would have gone with "The Kids Aren't Alright". This is too poppy for Alt, but it fits on CHR.

I gave the album a listen last week. It's not as bad as I thought it would be. I don't hate it, but don't really like it much either. After listening to some old Fall Out Boy this past weekend, I just really don't like the direction they've turned since reforming.

I'm really digging this. I love the chorus and the surfer vibe throughout the song.

heard a good quality version of this song. It's still not knocking off my socks, but sounds 10x better. I still think Panic! At the Disco woulda done it better?

Okay, this is slowly growing, but I still hate the album. Post-breakup Fall Out Boy is, to put it bluntly, nothing but a fucking mess. There’s no way the same band who made the quintessential 2000s pop-punk radio smashes “Sugar, We’re Going Down” and “Dead on Arrival” are the same ones who tarnished Suzanne Vega’s good name on the absolutely limp and vocally awkward “Centuries”. After Save Rock and Roll proved that Fall Out Boy’s increasingly poppier direction was stripping away any sense of energy or identity that they had before calling it quits, one would think they would do something to improve. Yet, at least Save Rock and Roll had an “Alone Together” or a “Young Volcanoes”, a song that stood out amongst the “My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark (Light ‘Em Up)”s of the record. American Beauty / American Psycho has absolutely nothing. Well, at least close to nothin

I am not surprised. Their last 2nd single (The Phoenix) didn't do much too.

of course its gonna move up a few slots in the comming weeks, but nothing big. I'm guessing it will perform along the lines of "Da Vinci" maybe scrape the top 30 for a few weeks. We'll have to see?

This somehow got resurrected from the dead. I still don't see this going beyond top 20 though.

This is now top 50 on CHR and Hot AC, and growing at a healthy rate. As it climbs those charts it could get more alternative airplay and approach the top 20. At the very least I think this will be spending a full 20 weeks on the chart regardless of its peak.

That song must be pretty confident if it thinks it gonna spend 20weeks on the chart just dancing around the 32-30 chart slots. For what its worth; I think it's gonna fall out in the next few weeks.

It's higher on CHR than it is on Alternative (by one slot)
