i think The Academy Is... is pretty awesome. but i have this thing about bands when they get popular. like when they get on MTV or the radio, i just start hating them. so i don't like them as much as i did before.

Wait... TAI is on MTV and the radio? When did this happen?! But yeah, same with me, I hate when bands get popular, because then their original die-hard fanbase sort of...Isn't any more. I used to be a HUGE Green Day fan, but now they've basically lost it.

I heard The Acadamy Is ... a while back, my friend introduced me to their music and I liked it. Slow Down is a good song

TAI is alright. I only got a couple of songs by them. I only like 2-3 songs by them overall.
OK Go's pretty cool. |

So what's your all's favorite song by either of them? Mine's Classifieds and Season for TAI, and I don't have the OKGo CD so I don't know what the songs are called...

I've heard of The Academy is...... because they're with the same company Paramore is and I love Paramore.
I've never listened to them, are they any good? |

I've been a huge fan of The Academy Is for quite a while now. I actually made THIS THREAD last year on them [:
I haven't listened to much of OKGo, but I have heard "You're So Damn Hot" and liked it a lot. |

The only thing I really know about OKGo is that they had this video with this incredibly funny dance. (:

I used to be a HUGE Green Day fan, but now they've basically lost it. tai was on mtv in january i think. i don't nessicarily like it when they get teenies for fans, but i'm happy for them. and the diehard fanbase only dies when you let it. i still love them as much as the first time i heard them. as for okgo, haven't listened to them. |

Yeah, I love the A Million Ways dance...My friends and I all learned it 'cause we're cool. Heck yes. Oh, and Lyra, you mentioned Paramore? I like them too! Hm, aren't they going to be on Warped Tour? I know TAI is, and I'm reeeally excited for that.

I like "Black Mamba" by The Academy Is...
And "Get Over It" is pretty much Ok Go's best song. |

I love The Phrase that Pays, Classifieds, Skeptics, and True Believers from the Academy Is. They're the band I listen to when I wake up every morning.

I've been listening to their CD ever since I got it last month. I think I might have listened to Panic! In between maybe...once? Yeah, I'm a little obsessed. O_o
