My absolute favorite band in high school... well besides Fall Out Boy... was Cobra Starship. I was and am in love with Gabe Saporta lol. I didn't think I would like their music as much now... but I was mistaken!
I haven't relistened to Viva La Cobra just yet, but I really like Hot Mess and While the City Sleeps We Rule The Streets. Their first album is probably my favorite, but the others are good too! A few songs really stuck out to me as good.
1) The Church of Hot Addiction- This is always a favorite. It's kind of the sexiest song that exists... in my opinion lol. It's just plain hot, theres no other way to say it. The video is really funny also. Gabe falls in love with a Bunny... its good. They used to play this on a TGI Fridays commercial. Lol. Which is weird.
2) Being From Jersey Means Never Having to Say Your Sorry- This is a great first song of an album. And it leads into Hey Mr. Dj which is just such a good combo. Also I'm from Jersey, so I find this pretty cool. Lol. It's very short, chill and just a great song overall. And its quite sad but in a good way lol.
3) Fold Your Hands Child- This one was always a favorite of mine. It's just very deep, which is uncommon in cobra songs. It's very sweet too it's just such a nice song.
4) The Scene is Dead, Long Live The Scene- Again very deep. This is one of my favorite songs ever, it used to be my favorite until I discovered David Bowie... but it's still really good and its sad but relatable and kind of hopeful at the same time. I really like it.
5) Nice Guys Finish Last- Didn't always love this song, but now it's somehow one of my favorites. I like that its got a pop feel but also a swing feel... I like the girls singing with him... basically I just like it overall.
6) It's Amateur Night At The Apollo Creed- I really like a good angry song, and this is a good one. They played this when I saw them for the first time and they just said to tell people you don't like to listen to this song or something like that. It was funny and really cool. I like angry songs lol.
7) Pop Punk is Soooo '05- Another good angry song. I liked this song a little more that the previous angry song, but they're both good and cool songs.
8) Wet Hot American Summer- First off I love the title of this song because I love the movie Wet Hot American Summer. Second it's just a laid back good song about summer. It's like a chill break up song, which sometimes you just need. Break ups aren't chill at all, but this is a chill song. lol.
9) You Can't be Missed if you Never Go Away- Another really sweet song that I've always loved, but now I just find it really good and just nice. Sometimes you need some songs that are just nice and nothing else. lol.
10) Living in the Sky With Diamonds- Another one I've always liked a lot, but it's recently become a favorite. It's an interesting story and it is quite relatable. You feel for this self-destructive girl and you really do want her to change and that she finds a friend other than the reflection in the mirror. I love songs that are about a specific girl? Is that weird? I always feel inspired or something, even if this is kind of negative. I like it a lot.
So yeah, that's it.
Byee!
