Jesus christ, you’re really going for it with this post. This is incredible. You make it sound in the headline like they’re just chanting it for no reason, because you know “singing along to a song” makes it sound much less bad. Then, when we’re primed to feel bad, you post the sad, desperate text messages of some…

It’s pretty stupid to sing this. It’s pretty stupid to record it and post it online. But as stupid as these kids were, I find it hard to believe that they’re malicious. I’ve never heard this song before, because I’ve crossed into Old Man territory, but these are, in fact, lyrics in the song. That doesn’t excuse it,…

This isn’t really hating on black people at all. It’s a group of girls having fun singing along to a popular song.

The asshole was driving completely smashed WRONG WAY on the parkway. The DA of Nassau Co. wanted him charged with murder.

I really liked the song, and then a friend of mine told me about the backstory and yeah. I just get depressed now when I hear it.

uhhgg they’re from Merrick 11566 no wonder

Good Christ...I remember this story. I had already moved away from Valley Stream, but I remember reading Newsday..Katie was in the car with her Aunt and Uncle. The aunt was found by Nassau county cops with the girl’s head in her lap, smoothing her hair. I think about that story every now and again.

Devil and God is probably one of my top 5 favorite albums period, but god damn this one is definitely up there. If it weren’t for the nostalgia factor I’d probably put this at the top.

Never have to lose my baby in the crowd...

My child’s mother has a t-shirt with the cover of this album on it after we broke up (we were together for almost decade) and this exchange happened.

Fuck yes Brand New

I knew this would be You Won’t Know.

I love it so much, and it’s made me appreciate Devil and God even more too - I kind of think of them as companion pieces.

The story behind “Limousin” almost broke me.

I’m seeing them tomorrow night!

Man, what an album.

Did you listen to their new album yet? It’s damn good.

I love love for brand new

Eh, I’m a Mentos guy anyway.

Thanks...you rock...may you be blessed with many hours of the “Wings” series on American Heroes Channel instead of an I (Almost) Got Away With It Marathon.
