-How did you discover them?
I was on youtube for some reason and clicked on something that looked like a cover for a real song and it was them singing Three Cheers for Five Years and I liked it and then searched for more songs of theirs.
-Did you like them at first? If not explain...
I did besides the fact that they looked like three dweebs on a couch.
-Favoritre Song(s)...
I have 3.
-Jersey

Lyrics #1
If You Wanted A Song Writen About You All You Had to Do Was Ask- Mayday Parade
Take me home
I'd rather die than be with you
Take me home
You have a problem with the truth
Take me home
because this happens every time
and I knew it would...


Lyrics #2
Ocean and Atlantic- Mayday Parade
So I will run
Until my feet don't touch the ground
And as the waves carry me out
Keep listening
She'll never make a sound
So keep it coming if it keeps you quiet
She's like the girl that keeps you up all night
And she'll be a secret you can keep
Keep me


AND...
#3
Jamie All Over- Mayday Parde
Please don't tell me that I'm dreaming
When all I ever wanted was to dream another sunset with you
If I roll over when it's over
I'll take this Cali sunrise with me
And wake up with the fondest memories

So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
I should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

mayday parade is amazing =]

I went on someone's myspace and heard the original version of "when I get home you're so dead" (off their ep) and I instantly fell in love with their sound. I just had to find out who they were.
Then I saw them at Warped and Bamboozle xD

My favorite song off of "Tales told by dead friends" is one man drinking games
and "A lesson in romantics" has to be jersey or black cat =]

favorite lyrics:

Walk Down Or Water Or Drown

As I'm looking to the sky to count the stars
I wonder if you see them where you are
I'm down on both my knees and pray tomorrow brings no pain

And then I fell into pieces and she fell into me
Saying, "Play me a song. It's been too long since I've heard you sing."

I had 'Walk on water, or drown' as my sig for a bit before the fall out boy line.

-How did you discover them?
A friend of mine thought they were pretty good, so i listened to a few songs and knew why (:
-Did you like them at first? If not explain...
It took about 1 day to love them :D
-Favorite Song...
Walk on water or drown,
When I get home, your so dead, or
Three Cheers for Five Years. I also love the acoustic one of it (:

-Best lyrics...
I have to agree, I love the walk on water or drown lyrics, but maybe Three Cheers for Five Years. I love the first verse.

Walk on Water or drown;

Oh, and everybody knows this is the part
Of breaking down in anybody's arms
I'm reaching down and hoping this one's ours

God, please let this stay
And then I fell into pieces
And she fell into me
Saying, play me a song
It's been too long since I've heard
You sing


Three Cheers for Five Years;

I swear that you don't have to go, I thought we could wait for the fireworks
I thought we could wait for the snow
To wash over Georgia and kill the hurt
I thought I could live in your arms and spend every moment I had with you
Stay up all night with the stars
Confess all the faith that I had in you (I had in you)


Oh wait..... I love the lyrics from When I get home, your so dead as well!
I can't really decide which is best. My fave songs are pretty much the ones with the best lyrics in my opinion (:

The words are coming I feel terrible
Is it typical for us to end like this
Well it's just another scene
From a movie that you've seen 100 times
Cause baby you weren't the first or the last or the worst
And I've got to fill the blanks in this past with a verse
We could sit around and cry but frankly you're not worth it
Anymore


:D

I liked Mayday Parade a lot when I first heard them but that's kinda cooled off now. I still think they're pretty good though

-How did you discover them?
My friend sent me the ep version of "When I get home, you're so dead" and I had it constantly on my ipod for a good 2 weeks
-Did you like them at first? If not explain...
Yeah I did, they reminded me of a lot of bands I'm into
-Favourite Song...
When I get home, you're so dead ep version
Black Cat
[b]-Best lyrics...[b]

"And flashback on the girl, as we montage every memory" - black cat

-How did you discover them?
On the "Punk Goes Pop" thing... Their cover of Somebody That I Used To Know was just HANDSOME ! I felt the need to hear what this band had already done...

-Did you like them at first? If not explain...
I loved them... I loved the voice and the emotion the singer was putting into every single lyric !

-Favorite Songs...
Aww... Terrible Things, Miserable at best, Without the Bitter the Sweet isn't as Sweet, Happy Endinfs are Stories that Haven't Ended Yet, Three Cheers for Five Years, Ghost, Angels, Even Robots Need Blankets, Girl, Ocean and Atlantic, When You See My Friends...
...
Well, I think I can say I love them all XD !

-Best lyrics...
"I know I'm good for something I just haven't find it yet"
"And even if it's dark at least we'll be together
Slowly sinking in the earth to lay forever
You better grab a hold and hold on for your life
Because you don't get lucky twice"
"We'll find a way, to run away, tonight"
"I'll take the first train out of this town
With a glare in my eye and my pockets full, ready to die
And when I get hazy I will think just maybe you're out there somewhere"

I think this band has eventualy became my favourite band... I don't know why, but they're so touching. Their lyrics are beautiful...
