- (FBE) So today we're gonna see how well you know
various punk rock songs from the 2000's.
- Ooh! Interesting.
I don't know a single punk rock song.
- I feel like I'll know them, like, they'll all sound familiar,
but I won't know any names.
- I'm not gonna know nearly as many as I look like I should.
- I swear, you guys love playing things for me
that you know I won't know.
- I'm not gonna know anything,
unless Green Day's considered punk rock.
- (FBE) So many people label these bands as pop punk,
which many of these bands do not like.
What do you think about that?
- Pop punk?
I didn't even know that was a thing.
- I don't like how we label music in a different genre,
as it seems very arbitrary.
- I guess when you are punk, you want to just be punk.
You don't want to be that in-between.
- They don't want to be pop.
Pop is like these little basic songs you hear on the radio.
- It's kind of like a pansy version of it,
so they're like, "We're not pop punk."
Like, I get that.

- No.
- I've heard it, but I don't know it.
- That is "The Anthem" by Good Charlotte.
- "The Anthem" by Good Charlotte?
- "Anthem" by Good Charlotte.
- (FBE) This is "The Anthem" by Good Charlotte.
- Yeah! Good Charlotte is a very underrated band.
- (FBE) So Good Charlotte has had quite the appearance change
since the early 2000's.
Here is what they looked like then versus now.
- I think we've all had appearance changes since the early 2000's.
Oh! Wow.
- They're still edgy, just a little less eyeliner.
- Finally got out of mom's basement.
Heh.
- This is the picture I imagined when I think of pop punk
and this is hilarious.
- I wonder if they look back on their pictures
and were like, "What were we doing?"

- I do not. No.
- No, I can't think who it is.
- I know the song's called "Ocean Avenue,"
but I have no idea who it's by.
- "Ocean Avenue" by Yellowcard.
- (FBE) This is "Ocean Avenue" by Yellowcard.
- "Yellowcard," I think I've heard of Yellowcard.
- When I hear "Yellowcard," I think of soccer.
- I know who Yellowcard is at least.
I used to listen to them all the time,
but I listened to more of their sappy songs
when I was younger.
And I felt bad.
All those albums my brother gave me have gone to waste.

and I know it doesn't make sense.
- This is like every girl song
when you're going through that middle school/high school.
When you just don't feel like you fit in,
this is the song you listen to that gets you back on your feet.
- (FBE) Do you know this one? - I don't know it, no.
- No.
- I do not.
- No, I don't think so.
- I don't know the artist.
I know it's called "The Middle."

I've heard of Jimmy Eat World.

that's the intro to every movie like that.

Crap! I can't think of the band's name.
- (FBE) This is "My Friends Over You" by New Found Glory.
- Okay, yeah, I've never heard of the title nor the band.
- I knew it was New Found--
I didn't know it was New Found Glory, otherwise I would have said it,
but I love New Found Glory.

I don't know the band.
- "Dirty Little Secret" by All-American Rejects?
- "Dirty Little Secret" by All-American Rejects.
- "Dirty Little Secret" by All-American Rejects?
- (FBE) This is "Dirty Little Secret" by All-American Rejects.
- Really? (giggling)
I don't know where I pulled that band out of.
- All-American Rejects is early 2000's pop punk gods,
I feel like.
Like, they're way up there.
- (FBE) This song has been used in quite a few movies,
including Bring It On: All or Nothing, John Tucker Must Die,
and She's the Man-- all classics.
- Yeah, that's probably how I know them.
- She's the Man, yeah, that's why this song sounded
kind of familiar.
- She's the Man, that's a classic.
They're old movies.
They're historic. They belong in a museum.

- Dude, ten-year-old me thought that was super deep,
and 19-year-old me still thinks it's pretty deep.
- (FBE) So do you know it?
- I know it, but I'm flatlining on the name.
- I don't know the title, but is it by Coldplay?
- Is it "I Walk the Line" by Green Day?
- Green Day.
I don't know the song title.
- "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" by Green Day.
- (FBE) This is "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" by Green Day.
- Shit! Aaaaah!
See, I knew it! I knew it.
- They're a classic and they're still relevant.
They're "clarelevant."
- (FBE) So the lead singer of Green Day,
Billie Joe Armstrong, called for the death of the term pop punk.
He tweeted his mission for 2016 was to destroy the phrase.
He feels the bands all sound different from one another
and the phrase lacks diversity.
- Oh wow, he'd hate me then.
I think they all sound the same.
- Why does he really care?
He should just make good music.
- The term "pop" really softens it,
and so it kind of takes away from the point of punk.
I can see where he's coming from.

- No.
- I do not know it, no.
- "Sugar, We're Goin' Down Swinging"...
Panic! at the Disco?
Wait, no, that's not it.
- I know it's Fall Out Boy.
I feel like the chorus-- it should be like "Sugar, Goin' Down.'
- Fall Out Boy, "Sugar, We're Goin' Down."
- "Sugar, We're Going Down" by Fall Out Boy.
- (FBE) This is "Sugar, We're Goin' Down" by Fall Out Boy.
- (gasping) This is Fall Out Boy.
I'm triggered.
- Why did I say Panic! at the Disco? (giggling)
- (FBE) So Fall Out Boy's label told them this song
would never be played on the radio
because the guitars are too heavy and the chorus is just too wordy,
but the song became the band's first top ten single.
- Props to Fall Out Boy.
- Dude, good for them, you know?
Way to stick it to them.
- Wow, that's kind of crazy.
So it's like, "No, that's not gonna work,'
and then it totally blows out of the water.
- It's so good.
I don't know. All the songs are just songs you can listen to
at any point, just jam to, and it just makes
you feel so much better.
