To compensate, I'm picking three:

many excellent choices on this thread already

― strongohulkington, Friday, 20 April 2007 21:33 (eighteen years ago)

Oh. And I want to change my Thursday choice to "Sugar in Sacrament." And I want to add Something Corporate's "Heroine."

THAT'S RIGHT! I'M A RULE BREAKER!

Taking Back Sunday - Cute Without the E (Cut from the Team)

― ablaeser, Friday, 20 April 2007 22:21 (eighteen years ago)

if early screamo's in, Born Against's "Albany Academy" is a scorcher

― Hans Rott, Friday, 20 April 2007 23:12 (eighteen years ago)

Blood Brothers - "The Salesman Denver Max"

― admrl, Friday, 20 April 2007 23:47 (eighteen years ago)

HELENA

This is probably otm, but "Sing The Sorrow" was the first thing that occurred to me.

― 31g, Friday, 20 April 2007 23:53 (eighteen years ago)

"Helena" was the first thing that occurred to me, but it had already been said and there wasn't any SDRE yet.

― marmotwolof, Saturday, 21 April 2007 00:01 (eighteen years ago)

Rainer Maria "Artificial Light"

Any answer besides "Sugar We're Going Down" by Fall Out Boy is just plain wrong!

― Whiney G. Weingarten, Saturday, 21 April 2007 02:07 (eighteen years ago)

"Dance, Dance" is better

― A B C, Saturday, 21 April 2007 02:09 (eighteen years ago)

Fuck it:

Smokey Robinson And The Miracles - Tears Of A Clown

― Whiney G. Weingarten, Saturday, 21 April 2007 02:12 (eighteen years ago)

I can sort of understand why someone would like "Sugar We're Going Down," but it contains none of the elements that make emo fun for me (which I guess are mostly long whiny choruses and self-pity). I want to say that it's too teenage-sophisticated and has no heart, but I know I'm in rockist hell as it is.

― mox twelve, Saturday, 21 April 2007 04:55 (eighteen years ago)

if cursive is in, then i say 'sierra'

if fugazi is in, then i say 'cashout'

if you disallow both of those, i'll say 'seven' by sunny day real estate like i just don't care

― Charlie Howard, Saturday, 21 April 2007 07:00 (eighteen years ago)

saetia - "the sweetness and the light"

― latebloomer, Saturday, 21 April 2007 07:18 (eighteen years ago)

Brand New - "Limousine (MS Reprise)"
