I like 'Walking By' by them. Andrew is a little sweetheart.

[clarissa]

they're one of my favorites.

[sweetdreamsx3]

I like one of their songs, but I forgot what it's called. The girl on xanga told me before, but that was several months ago.

[PurchasedRebelli...]

I love every single song of theirs. But my favorite would have to be "Cavanaugh Park".

I absolutely cannot wait for the new album out this summer!!!!



Oh, and on November 21, there was a show and it was SoCo and Dashboard (they're two of my favorite bands). I so wanted to freaking go... but it was in Ohio and I live in CT. >.<

[D1SMANTLED]

yeah. you wouldve missed a pretty good show there. too bad you couldnt go. =(

cool! i'm one of todays top posters! =)

[flyonthewall4590]

will you marry me? jk. soco is AWESOME! I LOVE THEM! they are oneof the best bands ever in my opinion. i can't pick just some song by them ALL of the are great! my current obsession is the song Bad Day. but i can't find their cd audioboxer and it saddens me. does anyone know where i can get it?

[Froshy]

<3 something corporate <3


they're so dreamy....

[me1issaaaa]

I like them! My friend Kelly has seen them.. I think 2 or 3 times, and apprently they're just as good live.
...The first time I'd even seen them was when she sent me a picture of one of the guitarists shirtless... and so... that's when I started listening. Heh heh heh...

[May]

How can there be 15 replies and not one person has even mentioned Konstantine?

One of my favorite songs, ever.

"This is because I can spell confusion with a "K" and I can like it
It's to dying in another’s arms and why I had to try it
It's to Jimmy Eat World and those nights in my car
When the first star you see may not be a star."


::random::
Yesterday I met a guy that looked exactly like the lead singer.

[simx]

Something Corporate is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!
Favorite songs:
Konstantine
Punk Rock Princess
Watch The Sky
Forget December
well... I haven't come across a song that I DIDN'T like yet... so yea, how about all of them LOL

[angelrevelation]

i havent heard many songs, but they're pretty good i love how they actually have a piano playing in every song! (i think)

i like konstantine and down

[RandomHero]

I was really really into them a while ago. I love their song "I woke up in a car".

[IamRad]

I love Konstantine and i think this song called "ruthless" yup yup they are a good band. =)

[silver-rain]

Yeah, I like them a lot too. I can't pick one favorite song though.

[Rachel]

OHEMGEE. I love SoCo!!! Konstantine is my favorite damn song STILL. I also love Globes and Maps<3

[*tweeak*]

not a fan. punk rock princess is from hell, for example. ie, when alecia showed scott my bright eyes cd, i was very insulted that he would respond by saying, "how should i know what that is? something corporate?" i hate himmmmmmn

[[Mediocre]Artist]

Punk Rock Princess made me laugh. If U C Jordan annoyed me to all hell. Woke Up in A Car was cool. Konstantine I've played for hours straight (literally) and still love it.

[*tweeak*]

actually, i enjoyed if u c jordan (even if it was an annoying shitty song) because it completely reminded me of my then-friend jordan. my friend played it for me one morning, and i objected until i heard the lyrics and then i get the point, and now it makes me happy because its just so apt

[jordanriane]

I used to be quite the fan, back in 2001 up until mid-2003. Just grew out of them. Not sure but I used to run a fansite, soco-online.com. Not affiliated with soco-online.net, a kid who decided to use the same name.

anyway, I haven't even listened to their latest cd, I don't care to either.

Songs I used to love:
Cavanaugh Park
Ben Franklin's Kite
Wait

[racoons > you]

is THAT who sings that punk rock princess monstrosity?

castrate them all.

nicki i must hearthis jordan song

[*tweeak*]

yes, you really, really must. because its just so perfectly jordan, minus the part where theyre talking about a guy

[jordanriane]

I haaaaaaaaaaaate that song with such a passion.

I think the reason is due to when I used to work for Hot Topic (well, Torrid, but Hot Topic is the actual company) I'd go to Hot Topic on my break to chill with co-workers there, and the Asst. Mgr at the time, Carolyn, would shout/sing "iF U C jordan." At first it's like, hey cool! After awhile it just got excruciatingly annoying. That and the numerous amount of teenyboppers that asked me if I changed my name to be Jordan because of that song.

Yeah, that's something I'd do; Change my name after a horrible excuse of a single.

[*tweeak*]

i didnt even know it was a single. but who the hell would change their name after a very, very bad song?

[racoons > you]

^

would anyone do that?

[jordanriane]

i didnt even know it was a single. but who the hell would change their name after a very, very bad song?

Yeah, it was a single.

Their singles thus far (from Leaving Through The Window, pre-north) were:

if you c jordan, punk rock princess, forget december, i woke up in a car..

and that's about as far as i can remember.

soco-online.net, or beyondthefandom.com might have more information.

[*tweeak*]

the only one i wzs actually aware of baing a sing was punk rock princess, because i read it in a magazine, but they dont play them on the radio here, and i dont wathc mtv, so i never know

[racoons > you]

my goodness. is jordan really that bad?

also, she doesnt have red hair.

and those lyrics are not good. the word masturbation really fits into very few songs well, and that wasnt one of them

[jordanriane]

the only one i wzs actually aware of baing a sing was punk rock princess, because i read it in a magazine, but they dont play them on the radio here, and i dont wathc mtv, so i never know

I'm not sure about them being a regular on MTV.
I don't think they really ever hit the popularity on it.

Those singles I mentioned were out in 2002.
They're not singles now, nor are they really played now.
Any [official] singles they have out now are from their '03 release, North.

[sadolakced acid]

is THAT who sings that punk rock princess monstrosity?

castrate them all.

nicki i must hearthis jordan song

grrrrr.

SoCo rocks.

all their songs. rock.

[*suddenly she*]

i can listen to konstantine for a very long time. what's even cooler is that it's easy to sound out on the piano :)

but the others, i'm not so sure. some of them are still good and some.. aren't? usually it's the bass that bothers me.

[*tweeak*]

my goodness. is jordan really that bad?

also, she doesnt have red hair.

and those lyrics are not good. the word masturbation really fits into very few songs well, and that wasnt one of them

you havent seen her lately. besides her hair being died vaguely red, she is a stupid bitch. personally, i prefer not to be friends with stupid whores who do drugs and act like sluts just to be cool

i never noticed the word masturbation in that song

i knew they were old, because i knew of the new album, as i have several friends who are obsessed with soco, but all i really paid attention to musically then was the radio

[racoons > you]

^^

yeah.. it was something like if you go hom enow will you still have time to masturbate or something

for some reason the image of jordan on drugs makes me laugh. i think i may hav emissed the whole 'it being bad' thing for the moment.
lol

[*tweeak*]

dumbass. im glad to know my incessent PMs telling you not being a idiot worked

jordan on drugs has the intelligence of an especially spastic fly

[racoons > you]

actually, my running out of money worked, but we wont quibble.

anyway, on topic.

yeah, we did a pop idol thing when we were in costa rica, and the guy who won did punk rock princess. lol i was simon cowell. lol.

i didnt vote for him, but go figure

[*tweeak*]

too many lols at one time. im going to continue to rant at you anyway, because it makes me feel better. because it really is a stupid thing to do. ciggerettes are just disgusting and pot is illegal for a reason. i dont care if other people do it. but i care if you do it.

anyway, i am mightily unimpressed by this konstantine song everyone is always raving about

[jordanriane]

That's because Konstantine is an overrated song.

Those who claim "it describes me so perfectly!" or use it as a love song are idiots.

This song is possibly the best/worst "break up,"/"i'm dumping you" to be honest..


Anyway, I think it's because it's such a long song, that's soothing yet irritating, and there are no choruses probably contributes to why this song is on everyones favorite list.

You should really check out anything from their Ready...Break release.
Most of the stuff on their is quite good, aside from konstantine.
It's definitely a lot better then that crappy single, and other songs they put out lately.

[racoons > you]

i smoked pot TWICE that is all. lets drop it. as for cigs, well... w/e i have no money so at the moment it really isnt an issue

That's because Konstantine is an overrated song.

i read the lyrics... they weren't good. i've taken a real dislike to this band.

[*tweeak*]

im very, very bad at dropping things that bother me this much. but ill move on for now

dont tell paige you dont like thm, shell hurt you

[jordanriane]

i read the lyrics... they weren't good. i've taken a real dislike to this band.

No offense, but just simply reading lyricsis not the best way to go about deciding on a band. Granted, lyrics are a major part of it all, but there are other aspects of a band. Then again, sometimes lyrics ruin it. To each their own.

[racoons > you]

oh i know there are other aspects of a band... but fo me the lyrics are the most important part. if i dont care about what they're singing, i dont wanna listen

FINALLY SOMEONE ELSE REALIZED THAT! I was always thinking "Okay guys, why would you want this to be "your song"?! He is talking about breaking up!!!"

But I still really love it. I can just...relax/let go when I listen to it. And the fact that it doesn't have some annoying/catchy chorus makes me like it even more

[sadolakced acid]

i love konstatine.

lovely piano parts; and nicely thought out.

all their songs are quite deep. you have to listen carefully and be knowledgable to know thier meaning. or look them up online.

like Straw Dog.

anyways; i like thier gushy/lovey piano based songs. they're mostly breakup songs, which is nice.

[*StanleyThePanda*]

I love the runaway
thats probably my fav by them
but I love them too
and konstantine is good!

[PinkTrash]

konstantine is like my loverrrrrr;
and omgg HELLOGOODBYE!!<33

[DisneyPrincessKa...]

i love them, my favorite songs:
Straw Dog
Astronaught
Cavanaugh Park
Walking by

poor rew. i hope he recovers soon. he's my idol<3

[yupimchuck]

oh wowww.
i really started liking them a while ago.

&i woke up in a car.
me and the moon.
as you sleep.

[sadolakced acid]

ehhh.

leukemia sucks.

[Paradox of Life]

I've only heard one song from them and I wasn't particularly impressed. They are good musicians though and I have a lot of respect for them; they've left a better impression on me than some other bands, but they're just like any other band it seems. They have good songs, not hit songs.

[PurchasedRebelli...]

I think it's better to have lots of good songs than just one hit song.

I know they're new album is coming out sometime this year, does anyone know exactly when??

[yellowcardrox22]

something corporate=AWESOME! lol i love the songs if u c jordan and straw dog

[waitwaitwait]

Too bad Andrew has leukemia.
YOU ALL WOULD KNOW IF YOU WERE REAL FANS.
Pitiful.

[ahhniee]

i've only heard a couple songs.

ahh..i see you like gravy train, also. haha.

[swe3txprincesz]

<333333333 My all-time favorite band. I love all their music.

[*xcaitlinx*]

Something Corporate is great! my favorite song is punk rock princess (hence my sig.)

my favorite band is chronic future! <333

Umm I knew he had it. But not knowing about it doesnt prove anything.

Actually, Jack's Mannequin, Andrew McMahon's side project, is coming out this year. August 9, I believe.

[lilliannnn]

I like them. I don't really listen to that type of music but when I do, SoCo, is one of my faves.

[PinkTrash]

I love the runaway
thats probably my fav by them
but I love them too

i met a girl who kept tattoos
for homes that she had loved
if i were here i'd paint my body
till all my skin were gone
