- Hello underachievers!
That's a guy!
That's Corry, say hi, Corry.
Do you like his top-- - Hi, hi.
- Do you like his top? - Hi, this is my top.
- Buy his top.
So, I make music.
Did I just release a new song called "Growing Up On the Internet"?
- You did just release a new song called "Growing Up On the Internet".
And it's very good!
Listen to it, download-- - No spoilers...!
For the video...
It's bad, but you should listen to it.
And if you want to see me play it live
as well as another, maybe one, unreleased song,
you should buy tickets to this tour right here.
- You're just playing two songs on tour?
- Just two songs.
- Just two songs... - That's the whole thing.
So, this is Corry.
I've been with him for over five years,
which means that I've been with you since
before I release any original music.
- That's true. - That's crazy.
- He heard "Asthma Attack" before it was out.
He also heard another song that I recorded at the same time
that I recorded "Asthma Attack"...
- There are two others.
One that I don't prefer and one that I do prefer.
"Asthma Attack" square in the middle.
- No spoilers!
So, Corry, you heard all the demos that I've had, right?
And you probably heard me recording
or writing the songs as well.
- Yeah.
- A lot of them? - Yeah.
- Yeah, we used to have our bedrooms used to be back to back,
so he heard literally everything.
- There was one time he was writing a very sad song,
"Chasing Daylight" and I wasn't feeling very happy
for an entire day...
Sad song! - Yes.
- Through my wall.
You have a stain.
- Everyone look away.
So here's one of the few people whose opinion I value about my music.
That's a joke.
I value everyone's opinion on my music.
- You value my opinion? - No.
So, today we're gonna be looking at all the songs
that I've released so far
and he's going to be rating them on a tier list.
I'm going to try and veer away from giving too much in my opinion
because I do want to make a video myself,
just rating my own songs.
If you want to see that, can we get a 5 000 likes?
Can we hit that like?
Can we hit that subscribe [ ]?
- Hit the subscribe [ ]?
- Hit the subscribe [ ].
- No, no, it doesn't sound like there's a comma there.
- The subscribe [ ].
So, what we have is a tier list.
If you don't know what a tier list is...
Welcome to the internet.
A tier list is pretty much--
We're just gonna rate the songs.
And by "we", I mean "he",
and by "he",
I mean "rate" and not "roast".
- Some of them suck.
- What?!
- As I was saying to you the other day,
this is all on the scale of your songs.
Some of them have to suck in comparison to the others.
In comparison to all songs...
- There's a pen as well.
That's the pen.
- Yeah, this is my iPad.
- First song we have to rate today is "LALALA".
I wrote "LALALA" about not want to write a song for TikTok.
- S tier! - Why? Explain.
- Because it's just...
You listen to "LALALA" and you're like, "oh..."
I don't know-- - An official review by Corry Will.
- Right, so every time you do new music,
there's little batches of them, right?
So you had the first batch... - Yeah.
- Which there was only really one good one from there.
- Okay... - The unreleased.
- Oh, okay, sure.
That's the "Asthma Attack" batch, by the way.
- And then the second batch were good.
So like, you had "Underachiever" and stuff,
they were good.
And then they just kind of [...]
And "LALALA" was like, the first one where I'm like...
It's the first one where I couldn't stop listening.
I would just put it on whilst walking places.
- Okay, yeah.
- I think that was the first one that I did that with.
- That works. - Also...
I should have a writing credit on it, really.
I don't, but like, I should.
- Oh, my God... - I'm exposing Noah.
He hasn't read "1984"! - My bad!
- But he put it on the song.
- I understood what is about. - He came through--
No, he didn't understand! - No, I did!
- He came through and said:
"Hey, just a question, what is '1984' about?
- Because I knew what it was about,
and if you had said it back to me,
then I would have been like, "yeah, cool" and you did,
so I was right!
And I should not be ashamed.
But I do need to read it now.
- You should. - Before put this on the internet.
Next song, "Better Days"!
- "Better Days"
- "Better Days" was on my last EP which--
- S tier!
- Really, I don't know why you like that song.
It's fun. - Yeah.
The entire reason this video is happening
is because Noah was talking about a new set list for a new tour.
- Because I have,
as you can see, a lot of songs.
- I said from the start:
"This should have been a single".
- I think there should have been a single over "Chasing Daylight".
- Yeah, true.
Actually, no-- Absolutely, yeah!
It's good,
but "Chasing Daylight" is the EP track
that's different from the other ones.
And you're like: "Oh, Noah Finnce,
"he has range, he isn't just a pop punk boy.
"He can also have emotions".
- Anyway, "Better Days" S tier...
I don't agree, but I'm not the same on that.
- "Asthma Attack", C tier.
It's not for me. - Oh...!
- It's not for me!
- Oh, they're not gonna like that one!
- I don't give a [ ]. That's not for me.
- It's not for you, but does that make it C tier?
- Yes.
Because this is my [ ] tier list.
It's C tier!
Well, "Asthma Attack" is...
It's fun, it's nice. - It's fun.
It's a song about wanting to kill myself.
- Yeah... - So it's fun.
Kids used to come up to me at meetups and be like:
"Hey, can I sing you your song?
They look me in the eye and be like:
"I am the physical embodiment of
"Everything I never wanted to be".
And I'm like, "wow, I wrote that about hating myself.
"Thank you for singing it".
- If I want, like, ukulele music...
- You just listen to Dodie! - Well, I mean,
YouTube was around for a long time.
Like, I had my fill of-- I had my fill of like, ukulele music.
- That's true.
I already had my fill of ukulele music when I recorded it.
If you want to hear more about that...
Want to hear more about that?
Watch the video that I'll make about writing my songs.
So, the YUNGBLUD cover I did of "Parents".
- I'm gonna put that in B tier.
And here's for why, because I cannot,
for the life of me,
remember how that sounds at all.
- So you don't remember how it sounds--
- But what I do remember-- - But you put it above "Asthma Attack".
- But what I do remember is filming the video
in this room,
with a green treadmile.
- That's a good memory. - And Luke, with the green screen...
It was great!
Also, it's Doll Skin, right?
- Yeah, yeah.
By the way my editor Veggard asked me to do this all the time,
because he likes when I do this.
This video is going to be late already, but...
- What is this?
- It's ally.
- Oh, ally!
I'm not an ally.
- Next we have "I Know Better",
which is my second most recent release.
- Here's what happened with "I Know Better".
I really... I liked it.
I really liked it.
And then it came out.
And I listen to your songs before they come out.
- Oh, yeah, yeah.
- And then, when they come out,
I'm not sick of them, but like, I've heard them so much...
- So, how would you rate it?
It's A tier. - Thank you.
- I like it, it's good, I know it's good.
Yeah, it's good.
You should do that on stage.
You should walk out and...
"After Therapy", D tier.
- For some reason, Corry doesn't like the song.
- [ ] no! - So, why does it suck?
- "After Therapy" and "Worms" are like...
Not the same song, but they're very like...
They're related, exactly.
And on the set list, they're pretty close together.
Get rid of "After Therapy"!
- My favorite albums have like--
They're full of songs that like,
all sound quite similar in the way those do.
- Yeah, I like Green Day too.
"Weirdos".
- This is many people's favorite I've come to find.
- I'm going to do this the way I want to
and say it's the live version of "Weirdos", not...
- Oh, yeah! - Not the studio version.
- And there's nothing wrong with the studio one.
- Live version is A tier. - Yeah, but like...
- It's A tier! It's really really good.
The studio version, there's nothing wrong with it.
I think the song is just made to be played live.
- Yeah.
Well, it's about being in community with [ ] weird people.
- Exactly.
And you need hundreds of weirdos singing it at the same time.
- Yeah. - Because one weirdo singing it...
- You look like a weirdo in a weird bad way.
- "I Just Won't Care".
- Oh, I know your thoughts on this.
- S tier!
- Can I just say, by the way, we're not even halfway through this.
He's already put the two EP tracks...
[ Corry Laughs ]
- The only two tracks on my last EP
that were not released as singles,
because I was like, mad.
He's already put them in S tier.
- I said they should have been singles and I was right.
- But "I Just Won't Care", not just like, a bit repetitive?
- It's crunchy, it's fun...
There's a maximum that like, a studio version can hit.
And I feel like it kind of hit that.
And the live is obviously gonna be better,
but they're both, like...
Like, if you were to like, compare studio to live,
and like, you know...
I know words!
I just woke up like, 15 minutes ago.
- Do you not feel that maybe when I play it live
I'm kind of like, hyperventilating and exhausted,
out of breath...?
- I, like, really mostly look at Matt.
Your drummer. - He drums like...
- "Pity".
- I remember showing you that on your bed
and you're being really excited about it,
because it sounded like a video game.
- Yeah, that was like, one of the first ones that I heard,
where it was like, you were adding weird stuff into it.
- I wrote it with Jason Perry,
who by the way, like, writes most of McFly stuff with them.
And he's crazy.
In the most lovely way.
- Oh, I'm almost regretting-- Is that a moth up there?
- It doesn't matter.
- I'm almost regretting putting "Parents" in B tier,
because I... Do I want to--?
- You can move it around.
- I don't know if I want to put "Pity" in A tier.
I'm gonna put "Pity" in B tier before "Parents".
Because I do like it, but I like others a lot more.
- Okay. - "Tell Me that You're Okay".
- Hold on, hold on.
[...]
- C tier.
- Yeah, I guess this one's boring.
- I think it's... - It's about my trauma.
And it bores you? - It's not about me.
It's boring.
- I made a joke about my own [ ].
- You can do that anytime you want.
"Worms" is A tier, isn't it?
- What's wrong with it?
- Nothing's wrong with it, it's just like...
- What's wrong with it?
- Oh, no, actually, do you know what?
I'll put it in A tier, and there's one reason,
entirely unrelated to you, your drummer.
- Oh, just before the "isn't he crazy that I'm still sad",
he has a drum pad where he plays like,
the xylophone notes that I recorded.
- I just like the fact that it is done live for no reason whatsoever!
- There is no reason.
- Like, next time you go to a Noah Finnce gig,
just watch Matt, the drummer.
Look past Noah and Charlie running about,
kissing each other and doing whatever is they do.
- We have only kissed a few times!
- What's this one? - "Chasing Daylight".
- Did you release the acoustic version?
- I mean, I have an acoustic version, yeah.
- Oh, so you just got it. - Anyway, we're talking about this.
- Oh, it's the same-- - Sorry, I'm currently having a hot flash.
You just blowed smelly breath towards me!
- I brushed my teeth!
- Could be worse.
- You treat me like a dog!
"Chasing Daylight", no...
It's one of the best music videos, definitely.
- But that's the only one that he's filmed
and directed and edited.
- Yeah, it's good.
It's either high B tier or low A tier.
- Really? - No, hold on.
I'm gonna put it above "Worms".
- You think that "Chasing--" Okay...
- No, hold on. Give me a little...
Give me a little...
- Oh, where did you go?
I like that, yeah!
"Life's a Bit".
That's actually a banger.
That's going S tier.
Lowest of S tier, though.
- You think that "Life's a Bit"
is worse than "Better Days" and "I Just Won't Care"?
- Wait "Life's a Bit" is worse than--
Yeah. - Wow.
We were talking about the set list the other day,
and I was like, "well, at some point,
"you're gonna have too many new album songs
"that you can't have all of these".
What was it?
"Underachiever",
"Life's a Bit"...
Oh, "Stupid"!
And realistically,
get rid of them all except from "Life's a Bit".
- It would be so messed up if I didn't play "Stupid".
- So, what's this one?
Is this "Mind Blank"? - Yes.
- "Mind Blank No Thoughts"? - "Mind Blank No Thoughts".
- I really like "Mind Blank". - Yeah.
- Oh, I'm being too nice to all of these.
- You can never be too nice.
Don't worry about being too nice.
- "Mind Blank" is S tier.
I feel like I've got too many S tiers.
- I don't think so.
Maybe they're just so good.
- I really like "Mind Blank".
The experience of doing a music video was fun.
- We destroyed a TV
and we did not know how dangerous it was going to be
and it made a very loud noise.
- There's movement in that shot because Evan was so scared
by how sudden the loud noise was
that he dropped his camera.
- "Mind Blank" is really good...
And it's fun live.
"Mind Blank" live it's the only time you get like,
something resembling a proper pit.
Oh, so much fun. - It's fun.
"Underachiever",
my first release after "Asthma Attack".
- You know what?
All of these first ones are pretty iconic.
I like hearing them live because they get like...
- Better. - Because you've kind of...
Not better as an artist, necessarily.
But like, you've got-- No, no, hold on, hear me out.
I don't think you've gotten like, better.
I think you've just gotten more confident,
and then able to do more.
- Sure! - No, I just mean, you know...
- I know what you mean.
I also do just think like, the way that I sung
on half of the first few songs that I released,
I had no idea what I was doing.
I didn't know how to record vocals,
didn't really know how I wanted to sing
because my voice had just dropped,
so like, when I listen to the recordings now,
I'm like, "oh, God, why did I sing like that?"
- Exactly, and you have gotten better, obviously.
But like, I think a lot of it is down to confidence more than...
Knowing what you want to do.
You literally just said you didn't know what you want to do.
- No, I just didn't know how to sing.
- Oh, it's high B tier.
It's good, but it's fine.
Like, "Life's a Bit" is better.
If I have to like really choose, "Life's a Bit" is so much better.
And you know what, actually?
I like "Pity" more than I like "Underachiever",
so "Pity" is high B tier. - Sure.
- What's this? "Growing Up On the Internet".
S tier.
- And is that because it's new? - No, no, no...
It's because, annoyingly,
I can't get that [ ] up my goddamn head.
What's this one? - "Stupid"!
- "Stupid". - I'm stupid...
That was about you.
- C tier. - That was entirely about you.
Wow... - Above "Asthma Attack".
- You did not appreciate it. - No, I do like it!
I do like it, I just think...
How do I put this?
It's the... I wouldn't say not as polished...
- It's so much more polish than the other two.
- No, no, what I mean is...
It's just not got the...
You've added more as you as you've gone on, right?
And I feel like, if you were to do this again,
I'd like it more.
- I don't see that at all.
- You don't agree with it?
- No, well, I think it's...
Well, it's like, it's just like, a cheesy pop love song.
- No, and it's good, it's good.
I just I can't even pinpoint what I would change.
I don't think I would change anything.
What is this? "Kicking Trash?"
Oh, I [ ] love "Kicking Trash", though.
Is it on the same EP?
Okay, so "Mind Blank" and "Kicking Trash",
those two are astronomically better than the other three.
For me.
I'm trying to... This is the issue:
I feel like I put too much in S tier.
Oh, my God, and the music video for that.
- The music video was really good. - Okay, then...
Sorry, that's putting it above "Mind Blank".
The image of Noah in a mattress
just walking around our High Street was brilliant.
And then we went past the park
and kids recognized him.
- I have this selfie with a bunch of 10 year olds.
They were literally children.
- Also, what he's doing with the ice cream there,
where it's like, spilling all over his hands,
that's not a bit.
Noah just... - I was playing a character.
- He sucks at eating ice cream cones.
- There is one left. - D tier.
- I don't like Bears in Trees.
- So, why D? - No, it's not D tier, hold on.
I think it's A tier easily,
but I'm moving "Asthma Attack" down to D tier.
Same with...
No, "Tell Me that You're Okay" can also go in D tier.
"Parents can move to C tier,
and above... - You're just... Okay.
- I think I'm happy with that.
- So your final-- - No, wait.
I'm moving "Asthma Attack" to the left, actually.
I think that's about it.
- So, how do-- How do you feel about this?
- A lot of them are at the top.
Too many are S tier, to be honest.
They're all iconic.
That's S tier for me, is like, this is iconic.
They're all iconic for different reasons,
and some of them are not because of the songs themselves.
- Yeah, I really disagree with some of your ratings,
but that's fine. - No, but, like...
I'm looking at this and I'm like:
"Oh, 'Life's a Bit' is up there because it's 'Life's a Bit' ".
- I'm mostly just thinking like, the songs that you've rated higher
just should be way lower.
Well, you're done now, you're finished.
- I don't know if I-- - No, I've stopped it, you'll finish.
Final thoughts:
Do you think people will agree with you?
Be upset with you?
Be happy with you?
- I reckon-- I'm not even joking.
If people don't agree with me, they're wrong.
There are some people that just have the wrong opinions about
which ones of your songs are the best.
- Such as you.
So that's the end of the video!
Hope you enjoyed it.
Let me know how you rate my songs,
how you feel about this rating,
and if you want me to do myself this thing,
have a good day or don't.
See you later losers.
Goodbye!
