1/24 Update: Like many others, I bolted awake this morning to the news that Brendon Urie is officially retiring Panic! at The Disco. I can't say that I'm at all surprised given his online presence disappearing, the content of the few interviews he gave for the album, and the album itself over the last few months, but there is still a part of me that can't believe it. To any Panic! fans who find this video in the meantime, know that everything I say in this comes from a place of deep love, because I wouldn't have made a 2-hour video about this album if I didn't care. This band and the music gave me and a lot of others a lot to love over the years, and it's refreshing to see a music artist step out to retire. Finally, congrats to the Uries! I wish their family luck and love and a relaxing life out of the spotlight.

I would die of happiness if you did an in depth review of too weird to live too rare to die. Every album, even.

For me it’s so clear that the whole album is just screaming “I want to be done with p!atd” and oh surprise he is done

20:54 the last cigarette just so happened to be laced… with… NITROGLYCERIN

Vices and Virtues will always be the best panic album idc who you are. Trade Mistakes, Memories, Nearly Witches. And oh so many more

I can't express how much i loved this analysis. After the death of Panic! everything just makes more sense and the fact that your video was kinda on that same page just highlights the effort you made to break it down insted of just tearing it up like most of twitter and tiktok users. Keep up the good work, hope to see your channel grow soon! P.S: Nice New Perspective cover :D

i love it whenever someone becomes so obsessed with an extremely niche topic that they just HAVE to make a two hour long documentary about it

The chorus of _Middle of a Breakup_ became incredibly ironic when he broke up the band because he's about to become a father.

Fun Fact : When I think about Panic At The Disco. In 80s there's a band from English/German name "Picnic At The Whitehouse" which lead singer Edwin(Eddie) Hind, Have very much lookalike with Brendon.

ok but have you considered that literally nobody else on earth can operate my heavy machinery? just a thought

I am still BAFFLED by his decision to play the album in full. Panic! At The Disco shows used to be such high energy, people were almost in awe of his stage presence and as you said, it goes against what he’s said before. It’s a bold move to play any album in full at a show, never mind a new one that’s not popular with fans. I hope the setlist changes for the UK show I’m at.

It would be amazing if you make a video about V&V! Was a surprise to hear that's your favorite album, 'cause I think its a weird mixture between old panic with Ryan and the post split panic with Spencer and Dallon, but somehow it works and have an unique sound. So underrated.

"hacking at my feed, act like you are me" is referring to a stalker he had who managed to hack one of his social media account. She pretended to be him and spoke to Ryan, she even arranged for them to meet up while pretending to be Brendon

idk how to explain this but watching her take the album apart like that made me like the album more

AAAAAAA as an ex panic stan who used to be super obsessed with them (used to be as in,,,,, i lost interest after pray for the wicked lol) this was so interesting. musically i really dislike viva las vengeance but damn this analysis was great and knowing now that panic is officially over it makes so much sense. its kind of depressing that this is how the band ends but the older albums will always have a place in my heart!! and i have to give panic credit for being my gateway to getting into so many other bands that i love, and basically being my introduction to the terrifying but also fun world of bandom. i hope you make more album analysis videos, this one was so awesome!!

Seeing this video after Panic's death announcement is crazy! Did the man write a bad (in my opinion) album on purpose, so people could leave him alone? Also, he announced the band's end through an album, and nobody catch it?!! I feel so dumb! Your theories are sooo amazing! They made me notice great ideias in this project, that I've never seen before. Looking back, Viva Las Vengeance clearly looks like a desperate letter of goodbye. It's chaotic, but now it makes sense, so thanks for making it make sense! I found the music videos kinda disturbing (even for Panic! standards). May Panic! rest in peace. Thanks for the masterpiece of a video! ♥️

this is so so well done and speaks perfectly to older/"ex" fans

I genuinely loved the album, and I like Star Spangled Banger, but your commentary made me laugh so hard 😂 despite my love for the record I love and respect your analysis! There’s a lot I’m learning hear about the references and the lore behind the album, especially after the breakup.

the ending of your video made me tear up. the thing you said about this being a love letter to your younger self is beautiful and very touching. thanks for all the immense effort you put into this for us to enjoy! as for the album, it really looks like a cry for help to me. i actually feel kinda bad for brendon after listening it and watching music videos. it looks like he is extremely done with all of this, and if so, i'm glad he can start a new chapter of his life. as an intense panic! fan it makes me sad with how it all turned out in the end, but panic! had a unique incredible career and so much good music that brought a lot of joy and meaning to my life. for that i will ever be grateful to everyone involved.

I'm kind of bummed that Panic! is over bc I wanted to hear him sing don't let the light go out in person just ONE last time. This song was a gem.

Me and my best friend went to see PATD at their last ever concert. The crowd went INSANE at the first few songs, which were all the hits between AFYCSO and DOAB. Then he performed the ENTIRE Viva Las Vengeance album 💀. The crowd went mild AF. Nobody cared, people just wanted them to move onto the good songs. Then the last TWO songs were the songs we actually wanted to hear. The crowd again went insane for those, but it ended so fast. Everyone walked away disappointed

Something cool I noticed was the lines "Didn't want to kill the DJ / But it can't hurt to try" in VLV reference the very origins of P!ATD. The band name was inspired by The Smiths song "Panic", in which Morrissey sings the lyrics "Burn down the disco / Hang the blessed DJ / Because the music that they constantly play / It says nothing to me about my life" followed by him repeatedly singing "Hang the DJ". Brendon writing these lyrics serves as a sort of closure (Especially with it being the last two lines of the song like hello?? Genius). The DJ has finally been killed because the music no longer speaks to Brendon.

wow it took me like three days but i finally finished the video... i think like many other former diehard panic fans i listened to the album when it came out and then kind of disregarded it and almost never thought of it again... but something about it pulled me back at some point. after the anouncment i got so depressed thinking i'll never get to experience panic live again so i impulsively bought a concert ticket and a flight ticket to europe. i just know i'll regret it for the rest of my life thinking that panic! at the disco, the band that got me into music in the first place, just... ended without me. i hate all the hatered and toxicity in the fandom in the past couple of years, hate that we went back to this stupid division between pre-split vs post-split fans, ryan vs brendon etc when really we should be celebrating the band's entire discography and history. it's been almost twenty years. people change, and that's okay, as much as its sad for us, its gonna be okay.

This video was so entertaining and well put together my jaw dropped to see it only had 6.5k views! I absolutely enjoyed this entire journey as an ex-panic fan who was obsessed for years and saw him live during the DOAB tour but stopped listening after the disaster that was Pray for the Wicked. I hope you’re proud of this video because I throughly loved it.

god I wish you'd do this for the other albums, that was FANTASTIC and totally worth the time!

I'm part of the minority that really enjoys the album and I love the change in direction that was made from PFTW , going from a more mainstream pop sound to the nostalgic 70s/80s glam rock/rock-n-roll approach that was done here. Brendon absolutely made this album for himself and it's brilliant to see such a personal side to his music, especially showcasing the rawness of his emotions, even down to the methods used on the album in comparison to DOAB/PFTW. While there are some icks with the album, the storytelling is so layered and the lyrics, while somewhat simple, let you underpin different meanings within songs: Are the characters in Something About Maggie/Sad Clown just characters used to tell a love story, or are they representative of opinions of Brendon in the real world? Who is Local God about? Is it even about anyone in particular? Does the focal character change between the bridge and the verse/chorus? Do It To Death is very clearly about burnout, but could it be to do with anything else? Trying to please fans who dislike the new direction? Struggling to express himself (and eventually exploding after bottling everything up, hence the video) after the events of 2020 which led him to go radio silent? MOAB/Sugar Soaker are very similar in theme but placed on different sides of the album; was Side B representative of a failed resurgence which happened due to the same damaging things repeating over and over again? The list goes on, and context is especially important when unpicking this album but the lyrics are simple enough to let you believe whatever story you want, if you even think there is a deeper meaning. I truly don't think you can really compare VLV to any other album because of just how different the themes and goals of the album are. The basically-zero promo (one interview and some Times Square posters) for the album could also be for so many reasons too. I think it's totally understandable when people say that this album can be the reason to turn them off from Panic!, but there will never be another AFYCSO, another Pretty Odd OR another VLV, and nobody is forcing anybody to listen to anything they don't want to listen to. If there is an 8th album, I'm looking forward to it because we know that it won't be anything they've done before.

The most entertaining part of this (other than the lyrics lmao) is watching you struggle with the ryden demon screaming in your head. I salute you and your struggle

I went to see it in birmingham and he definitely seemed to have so much fun and he was very chatty but I think he was also seemed drunk but he was living his best life might just be him soaking in the British culture obviously. Crying that I will never see them live again.

The heavy machinery part killed me lol. Mostly because the first time I heard that I thought it was so clever and I still really like it.

I will definitely be watching this later but I salute the time and effort you’ve put into this! I’m making a panic essay of my own and it’s taken months, and probably half the run time as this!! Impressive as hell

Loving this video! I've seen P!ATD four times live, and the VLV tour back in September of last year was my last time. I had a feeling it would be the last tour. Or the last one for a while at least. Urie's silence on a lot of the album's details and the lack of press really made it seem like he wanted to quietly fade away from Panic. So glad I got to go since I figured the album wasn't gonna sell well and this would be my only chance to see these songs live. The only bummer was the lack of Vices & Virtues tracks in the set list, cuz like you, that's my favorite Panic album. Glad I saw Panic on the V&V tour as well back in the day. They played more than half that album and it was amazing.

I was so happy when you said v&v was your favorite album. I think it might be a close second for me after A Fever 😁😁

The Vices and Virtues vinyl definitely won’t be an easy find. It’s sold out at normal retail stores, and I couldn’t find it anywhere around where I live until I went into this local nerd shop and they had a single vices vinyl. Had to get it cuz it’s my favorite too🤭🤭

ok but having a roommate you can theorize with?? that's so cool. like that's so fun. one of my theories is that so many of the songs sound the exact same because it's playing into the theme of "doing it to death" or repeating yourself over and over again. it helped me appreciate the album slightly more... not enough to say it's a good album but enough to be like Hey! that's actually a pretty cool way to do it if that was intentional!

I was at panic! show in summer of 2016, in Moscow. Back then we had a lot of foreign acts coming with shows, relatively often, I think either Twenty one pilots or Gerard Way had a concert in the same weekend. And the concert hall was full the the brim, lines were insane, I had a balcony seat because I didn't want to be in the crowd, but the pit/fanzone looked like a human ocean under me. And it was one of the biggest concert halls in Moscow. And Brendon was so alive during that performance, amazing stage presence. Sure, I think he was drunk, and he was wearing a jacket over bare chest, and became topless one song in, but he talked SO MUCH with the audience, made quips, had iconic backflip from the piano. It was great, and I'm so happy I went. And everyone knew all the words, and it was magical. I have to go back :(

This video is 100% responsible for putting me back into my P!ATD era and I thank you for it 🎸

This deserves more views. Fun fact- I'm doing something similar to this as my senior thesis! Except it's a rhetorical analysis of a famous punk rock album. Excellent video essay. It was well written, and you gave a very insightful, thorough, and detailed analysis! Edit: I just read your description. You wrote and filmed this 20k word video essay WHILE WRITING YOUR THESIS?! Damn that's unbelievable dedication! What was your major?! I'm Communication and Media Studies.

Man I can’t imagine how weird it would be to go to a concert where the band/singer plays their new album from start to finish, even if I loved the album. I’ve been a fan of the band since I was a kid in 05 and album is really weird for me since I’m extremely indifferent towards it but now that the band is done that kinda adds something to it. I do think a deep dive like this is pretty interesting though since bands like Panic and FOB have plenty of lyrics that make me go “idk what you’re trying to say but it sounds cool” lol

Mamas and Papas are literally shittin bricks though

IM SO GLAD YOU MENTION THAT HE COULDVE BEEN INTOXICATED DURING THE CONCERT- the whole time during my concert he was slinging back drinks and then started dancing in a circle with his shirt off 😭

Watched this video in full last night with my roommate and I was absolutely stunned to see you only had ~90 subs?? This is so well done!! I can't wait to see what else you create

What's interesting about local god is that people interpret it in one of two completely different ways, and both sides are pretty adamant that they're the "right" side. Either it's mocking, and about how he did better than the local god, or it's some form of admiration for the local god as they were satisfied with doing their own thing, even if it kept them small. I don't really like the album, so I've only listened to the songs a handful of times, but my interpretation of the lyrics has switched between these polar opposites almost every time. I guess it sort of depends how you're feeling when listening to the song or reading the lyrics. But I also think it's impossible for Panic! fans to listen to the song objectively as we all know too much about the band, what went on, and our opinions on the members.

Middle of a breakup is about Brendon and the fans being in the middle of a breakup (this last tour) and makeup sex is this awesome album

Perhaps "Take me to the limit" means "Let's sing the entire VLV album in its original key every night on tour until my voice blows out and it doesn't matter since I'm never gonna do this again and my band is at the end of its lifetime

This album is so personal to Brendon. I absolutely love it!! I love 70s and 80s music and the way he pulled in the influences of some of my favorite bands through the music and lyrics is just brilliant. The videos for this era are phenomenal. I can’t rave about this album enough. Saw the tour and was blown away by his talent. He was AMAZING!!!

Firstly, thank you so much for this video, I really enjoyed your analysis! Saw one of the UK shows a couple of weeks ago knowing that it was one of the last and was so glad I got to see it live. Was sad it was an album tour rather than a farewell tour though. Loved it but also very sad I didn’t hear some of the old classics. My take on all this. I feel that it was always going to end this way, and the timing/manner of the end of Panic! had been meticulously orchestrated to feel pretty abrupt and unsatisfying for many fans, even though VLV pretty much spells it out. It hurts like losing a loved one who had been ill. We all kinda knew it was coming but the timing wasn’t expected, and they left us sooner than we would’ve liked and without the last big farewell with all the classics. EDIT: But then I also doubt that would’ve ever been possible as the “band” has become unrecognisable from its inception, so maybe that was also why, because trying to do a farewell tour would’ve been a disappointment too. It’s a lose-lose situation. I wonder if it was an intentional decision to play the whole album through to show that Brendon has turned into something he doesn’t like? The fact he’s contradicted his original stance on live shows almost ties in with the album and his feelings about what’s been done to him as a result of the fame. The foreshadowing in this album is actually a masterpiece. In my eyes, the tour played out exactly as the album portrays. Brendon’s lower energy, not interacting with the audience, and not being able to tell if he was enjoying it, all rings true. The songs that were omitted would no doubt have left much of the audience feeling shortchanged. The album itself can be seen as an album too far, with Panic! being “done to death”. The lack of engagement in the middle of the shows mimicked the album petering off in the middle. The parallels are so strong, at least to me they are. That in itself makes this swan song a piece of art, even if it missed the mark and is not as enjoyable or memorable as previous work. I also actually really like Sad Clown… the chaos is so distracting I get lost in it! However, I totally get it could also be anxiety inducing (Probably intentional like you said)! EDIT: OR I’m completely overthinking it all and he was always planning on stopping when he became a father, and that’s just how it worked out timings wise as the tour dates would’ve been locked in before his wife was pregnant. 😂

I only listened to this album once and had internalized it as BAD, so I felt like this video was vindicating...but by the end, I'm sad (in a good way) because this video reminded me of how much I LOVED Panic! and still do in many respects...ending with New Perspective is a crazy touch because that is my FAVORITE Panic! song and frankly this acoustic version (by you??) is beautiful....anyway, thank you for making this video. I really appreciate everything about it and thank you for helping me appreciate old Panic! again even when I can't enjoy new Panic! :)

You singing Star Spangled Banger KILLED ME I couldn't get through 2 seconds without pausing the video and laughing you are so amazing!

Vlv is a amazing album in love with it so much

it took some time but I absolutely ADORE this entire album now ive streamed it an ungodly number of times. and your analysis made me love it more i laughed way too much

This was such a fun way to spend 2 hours. Thanks for the in-depth analysis!!! :D

This is wonderful! Put together very well and it's engaging the whole way through. Also glad to see another Vice & Virtures lover, good taste

I actually really enjoyed the VLV album because it feels like a really good goodbye album

I think the Line "Hacking on my feed act like you are me, no one really cares" can be referencing the Ryan Ross catfish situation

Although we disagree on the album (I absolutely love it), I’m just happy there are other people out there who made up a dance to Middle of a Breakup and performed said dance at the concert 🤣💃🏻🕺🏾

I went to the Viva Las Vengeance tour as well and also got upgraded seat after walking around confused for 10 mins!

I haven't listened to this whole album, so I could be wrong. But STP (was also a band in the 90s/early 2000s.) It stands for Stone Temple Pilots. Vocalist Scott Weiland left and became the vocalist of Velvet Revolver. Might be a dual reference there?

While P!ATD is no more, I do hope we'll get more music from Brendon after he's had time to rest and enjoy becoming a father. The way a lot of the fanbase has treated him since the stuff about Zach came out is pretty shitty IMO. I know he didn't respond to the accusations in a timeframe that most were happy with, but that isn't a good enough reason for people to go out of their way to ruin his career and quite literally bully him into exile. Digging up the stupid shit he said at seventeen is just a low, low blow. I understand holding people accountable for the things they've done, but in Brendon's case, I think it's safe to say he is not the young, dumb kid he was when he made those comments. There are so many celebrities who have said much worse and yet, they're allowed to keep on keeping on. Regardless, this was an excellent video. Your analysis was spot on and if you were to ever make another about any other albums, I would watch it. Thank you for the energy and time you put into this.

I personally love viva las vengeance, I understand why people hate it because its not the same like death of a bachelor or pray for the wicked. 12: Something About Maggie 11: Star Spangled Banger 10: Middle Of A Breakup 9: Local God 8: Sugar Soaker 7: Say It Louder 6: Do It To Death 5: Don't Let The Light Go Out 4: All By Yourself 3: Sad Clown 2: Viva Las Vengeance 1: God Killed Rock And Roll I can't believe I'm seeing panic for the 2nd and last time, now knowing it's the last tour ever! 😭

I know you mentioned that this album started your feeling of being over Panic! BUT I really like your interpretations of it! I've been a fan since 2006 so I also have a bit of a soft spot for them/Brendon no matter how much time passes and it's nice to see a more unbiased take on the album, especially because I recognize there are some uhh misses in there tbh. Also, Say It Louder and Star Spangled Banger are my least favorite songs & I cackled at your interpretations basically being that they weren't good lmao

So interesting how one of my favourite songs from the album is the most forgettable one for you! "All by yourself" really brings some comfort to me 💗💗 Nice video 💗💗🐈🐈

God imagine in 2010 people not rocking out and sitting in their phones at Patd show😭😭😭 The whole tour section was insane to listen to. I knew things were bad but I had no idea they could not even sell all the tickets😢

I loved your analysis/deep dive it was fun and i think you did a great job im just relatively new to this band but im heavily obsessed with them. An interesting thing I can point out about the earlier mentioned going back to the beginning... Brendon in song titled Viva Las Vengeance says: I don't wanna be a diva, I just wanna be free On a sofa with Sativa, Living the dream... Meanwhile in the A fever you cant sweat out (more specifically in the song titled there's a good reason these tables are numbered honey, you just haven't thought of it yet) Brendon says: Talk to the mirror, oh choke back tears, and keep telling yourself that "I'm a diva" ... anyways... At first i also hated this album but now i got used to it and its kinda my most favorite album now because its not the best but its fun. I can compare this album to a drug: you dont like it at first but its from your most favorite band you have listen to it you have to like it. On the second listen your already familiar with it you know what it does what songs are there what emotions it triggers. On the third listen you think that its an okay album. On the fourth listen you like it and you are absolutely used to it and you have no problem just vibing to it. On the fifth listen your fully in love with it, youre basically addicted at this point.

Saw brendon live on the viva las vengence tour and my life is complete

I didn’t like the album at first but now that it’s starting to grow on me and after seeing how much fun y’all had at the concert I kinda regret not seeing them live one last time

Thank you so much for making this video! This made me feel all kinds of things

have watched this video three times and have only just noticed the brendon urie funko pop taped to the wall behind you. iconic

This video so deserves a million views

keep it up!!! this video is awesome!

great video. love how transparent you are with your opinion on this album some fans aren’t willing to admit

The mix was done like that on purpose.

I like to think that Sugar Soaker is about having a sugar mommy/daddy and that alone makes it my second favorite song on the album

I'd love to know how you would sort a "chronological" order of these songs. Whether it be by metaphorical story concepts or by references to past panic! eras

The line: "I don't wanna be anonymous but I don't wanna be you" is a variation on the line "I don't wanna be a diva, I just wanna be free". These lines are talking about the same thing. I think they're drawing a dichotomy between the free-spirit and the industry baby. He's saying that being free comes at the cost of being a nobody ("I don't wanna be anonymous"); But being popular comes at the cost being a sellout. Therefore, I think the line "I don't wanna be you" is directed at the big dogs of the industry who he sees as sellouts, and he's maybe even seeing himself in them to some extent.

Ngl I’m SO surprised you said Star Spangled Banner is the worst song on the album when Something about Maggie exists 😭😭 Edit: I stand corrected haha

You should listen to the outtakes of the album, Y-O-U Don’t Want Me and California

The thing is, if you are going to play an album from front to back, then you do have to keep it interesting. Melanie Martinez does this through set and costume changes as well as choreography to give every song their own atmosphere and aesthetic. Even if you don’t like her music, it keeps the performance interesting. It also works because her albums are stories from start to finish. It makes sense. But if you are not going to go through that extra effort to give every song it’s own aesthetic and atmosphere and just play the songs front to back, then it’s understandable for an audience to become disengaged when they know you from your older ones.

man, i wish i got a free shirt at the tour :( Unironically, the columbus ohio part of the tour was really packed though, so hearing your story makes me understand why, but man, the only thing i kept was some confetti lol

P!ATD is one of the big scene bands who never really took a break or hiatus!!!

Whats insane too is that do it to death ending. Translates all the way back to the begining of panic's first ablum's song "Introduction"

I have always felt like middle of a breakup was describing the album itself. That hes "breaking up" w the industry aka ending the band. Not to mention the relationship between him and the general public has already been steadily declining in the past few years w many ex diehard fans even walking away. So I think he knew there wasn't really anything he could do to fully bring Panic back to its glory days. But this album was still a last hurrah of him just throwing something out there to give the remaining fans something aka the "make up sex". He probably knew the album wouldn't do well so he just had fun without thinking of what would be successful as he already peaked. It makes me so happy to see somebody go so in-depth to these lyrics because I honestly assumed most of them were just gibberish and wordplay. So from one ex diehard to another, great video!

This video is amazing and i think truly shows what being a former/current panic stannie is/was like. Just be careful. The mythos of this band sucks in new kids everyday and because there’s not much VLV content. You might become a new figurehead in this sad fandom.

Love your video! And I was obsessed with the album 😅

hey if u wanted to do more video essays on any panic! albums I'll listen all the way!

Wonder if P!ATD / Brendan had obligations to the label for one more record and that this album is a sort of FU to the music industry/fans who "turned their back" on him after all the scandals in his mind. I hope he enjoys fatherhood and a more quiet life with Sarah

Literally forgot this album existed until I saw this video reccomended. As far as I know the last PATD album was Death of a Bachelor.

39:37 worst part of this entire video, I enjoyed it very much

I think local God is his way of saying that after all is said and done his being “almost famous” is not any better than Ryan following his heart. I don’t think it’s a dis , I think it’s a concession or even perhaps an olive branch. Besides, Brendon doesn’t pull punches when he doesn’t like them he just says it-usually with several well chosen curse words in it.

Brendon did say somewhere that this is his rock opera. Which kinda makes sense listening to this album. That being said, I have loved this album, it was refreshing after listening to the mainstream album everywhere for 3 years. (If I hear high hopes 1 more tiiimmmmeeeee) lol. Sad sad sad news he's retired the band. I just got to my 1st Panic show in 2022 after 18 years of listening to the awesomeness that is Panic! The gf and I were talking about how we need to go to another show, and I was so pumped to. And little did I know, it was the end of the road. Like a slap in the face. I'll just have to hold out hope after being a father for a bit, he'll want to make another album, or at the very least, a proper farewell tour. Keeping my fingers crossed.

uhm ur cover is SO beautiful whats the tab LOL too good

When I first saw the album cover my first thought was that he looked like Christopher Pelant, a season arching villain from the show Bones

This is awesome !!!!!!

He’s in pain doing what he loves and he’s done 🤷‍♀️

i wonder if he chose that mask for panacea because it is in the museum of failure - a fitting theme of the viva las vengeance album

i can't believe i just watched all 2 hours of this. we have the same interpretations and icks with the album (but i actually liked the album). i'm kinda sad when you said that this video's the start of the end of your love for them :(( but i guess that's fair. thank you for the video, i love you

1:00:14 "he seems like he possibly could've been intoxicated for parts of it" 1:00:36 *cuts to bro looking like charlie sheen* Theres NO way he was sober for this 😭

I also had tickets for the Portland, OR date but couldn't make it because i couldn't get the day off from work. I wasn't too bummed at the time because i had been to the previous 2 tours and didn't like the VLV album, but i had no idea it would be the last one..... It was bittersweet. Don't like the album, but i will surely miss my fav band 😭.

I loved this video even tho I didnt really understand the point about how the first single is not supposed to be one of the best songs of the album but who cares I LOVED YOUR PERFORMANCE MAKE MORE CONTENT PLEASE

Ah, also, probably a colossal stretch, but still... Fall out boy have a song " save rock and roll" and the song and music video prominently feature Elton John as The God. Brendon releases a song called God Killed Rock and roll. I don't know but it might be a connection... I pulled it out of my ass

Tbh I love God Killed, so I'm now excited to hear God gave you lmao
