  • Scare Crow

  • DeuceIsABitch

    Sounds like a mix of something from swan songs and desperate measures. Sweet :)

  • mrPoPo

      Zero content? Coming from a fat bitch luvin douche whose name is mrpopo? I ain’t ever had love for the cops and for u to even be associating with them makes u a bitch ass retard whose comment means nothing…..go slap ur wife up and narc out some jaywalkers ha to da ha

        While many people here really are Ignorant to their “criticism” toward HU, and want Swan songs back, even though it was influenced by an band member no longer there. However, you might want to calm down. Just because you passed the 4th grade a couple weeks ago, doesnt mean you can go just throw words around and it automatically makes sense. Seriously, you sound like a retarded fan-bitch. Now i know, you’re going to be really insulted and try throwing 10 “curse” words at me, and act as if it makes you look intelligent, but try to restrain your idiocy from now on please.

    It’s OK, too simple in lyrics.

  • PoPoHu

    awesome as fuck

  • NeuralBlast

    I used to love you guys, not ‘cuz you were great musicians -let’s be honest, you aren’t- or your elaborated lyrics, wich you don’t have, but for the fact that you were really feeling something, you did have something to say, and you transmit it really great, like songs such as “Young” or “Undead”, with really strong messages and a bleeding heart screaming out. Now you’re just tryin’ to sell records n forcing your songs to be “funny” and “irreverent”. Sayin you wanna fuck everything n get wasted all the time is not either of ‘em, is just being plain stupid. Try to get spirit back boys, you proved you have it in ya’. Get back on the right track please, you got great shit to say.

    • DidntThinkOfThatDidYa?

      Clearly you haven’t heard We Are

    • John Doe

      I think they have already responded to this matter on several occasions, but I’ll just repeat it here.
      They have said that each individual band member writes and composes songs from time to time, so that songs have a wide variety of feelings, beats, lyrical content etc.
      I agree with you that some songs have shitty lyrical content, but they tend to sound and feel differently. Some people do not only appreciate the lyrical content of the song, but also the feelings that the transmit.
      Personally I love the touch of the soft piano in this otherwise “cool” song. What you interpret of this is up to you ^^, let your mind wander and fall in love with the song in the process.
      Yeah, I smoked some wierd shit.

      They’ve always had songs like that, dumbshit. Bitches, el urgencia. It’s the exact same as this. They have songs like you just described, and they have good songs. It has nothing to do with them getting worse over time. ‘We are’ has a message to it, and this one doesn’t, really. But that’s okay. Young had a message to it, but Everywhere I go didn’t.

    • http://www.facebook.com/jestin.braker Jestin Braker

      Ur full of shit and need to shut the fuck up cuz life is all about getting wasted and having a good time…..why the fuck wouldn’t you wanna live it up if u had it big? U gotta be some Steve Urkel lookin’ mutha fucker that wants to pick lyrics apart when u should be out tryin’ to live yo life instead of fucking up ur parents privacy time LOL

    • wynne

      I totally agree with you man, they totally semi sold themselves out.
      i still do like the song a lil cuz its fun but still its disappointing.

  • Rangerdanger

    Too mainstream pop garbage. And I loved swan songs
    This sounds like you wrote the song with Lindsay lohan
    Where’s the dirty gritty HU we all know and love

  • adam94

    simply awesome :) can’t wait for the album :D

  • BackOffBitch

    Hollywood Undead where do i start. You have changed, you are still an amazing band but you just lost some vibe. Just like NeuralBlast said it, you dont put as much effort into your songs anymore. They are good songs but after you listen to them 5 times it dies. Undead, Tear it Up, Young, The Loss, ect had your hearts in the music and when a song doesnt have heart its not as good as it should be. #BackFromThe(Un)DEAD

  • boo boo

    Ehhhh.

  • amerikentragedy

    Dead Bite and We Are are better than this, as long as this song is the odd man out this next album’ll still be the shit. Not a bad tune but definitely not what I expect from HU

  • Sean Lerner

    I hate the lyrics, this is crap compared to american tragedy or swan song

  • Steve Medel

    You guys said this album would go back to sounding more like Swan Songs did. All you guys are doing now is trying to get air time and to sell records. Even your party songs were way better back in the day. Bring back party shit like “Everywhere I go” and “No. 5″. Bring back the strong shit like “Young” and “My Black Dahlia”… Before I said you were one of my top 3 bands… Now I can barely listen to you

  • Wicked Shmo

    Hollywood Undead needs to take some serious criticism because Swan Songs was definitely their best album to date. i hope They get back to their roots and stop with this mainstream bullshit

  • thekid

    Well i got a few things to say…1- this is a pretty decent fuckin party song no matter what anyone says… 2- funnyman did a hell of a job with this video, it really goes with the song… 3- this may not sound like swan songs but honestly who cares, the rest of the album is still gonna be fuckin sick, and i personally dont care if it has a message, i just want somethin to get fucked up with and chill haha…..

  • Leesachan

    I didn’t like the song very much…it’s kind of blah.

  • Coldsoup

    They’re not “forcing” anything. They’re writing and doing what they want. I’ve been listening to them and been a fan since, well, “The Kids” was posted on their Myspace page. Yes, there is difference between Swan Songs and American Tragedy, and there is DEFINITELY a difference between those two albums and the new one coming out. I loved them when they first started, and I still love them. They still have a variety of songs (We Are compared to Up In Smoke) and they’re doing what they love and having fun while doing it. In a Q&A thing last night J-Dog said that yeah they like making the fans happy but if they’re having fun, then that’s all that matters! Can’t wait to see them again next month!

    If you don’t like it don’t listen to it. I’m not into partying but I love Hollywood Undead’s party songs. They’ve changed yeah – it’s called growing up. If they didn’t change at all ya’ll would STILL be complaining.
    Gah. Just shut up and listen – or don’t. It’s not that hard.

  • Juganaut

    This song is way too damn catchy…me and this song go together like Charlie and J-Dog…….I just had to

  • http://www.facebook.com/jestin.braker Jestin Braker

    That was the shit….for real, these guys are on the SAME level I’m at….if you’re a hater AKA Beiber masturbator then go listen to that pop garbage LOL

  • HU4L

    HELLO EVERYONE SAYING THEY HAVE CHANGED & LOST THEIR POTENTIAL AND SKILLS AND ALL THAT SHIT!! THIS SONG IS THE SHIT, 2 OTHER SONGS HAVE ALSO BEEN RELEASED ALONG WITH THIS ONE. WE ARE & DEAD BITE AND THEY ARE THE SHIT. ITS NOT BECAUSE THEY CHANGED. THIS IS JUST SUPPOSED TO BE A FUN SONG!! LISTEN TO EL URGENCIA THAT IS OFF OF DESPERATE MEASURES THEIR SECOND ALBUM. AND THAT IS COMPARABLE TO THIS AND IT WAS AWESOME. THEY ARE JUST HAVING FUN!!! AND MAKING THEIR FANS ALONG WITH THEMSELVES HAPPY!!! -_- thank you.

  • Dally

    Haha not going to lie, not one of my favorite but still definitely HU. And too all those saying they’ve “changed” or gone “mainstream” have you actually listened to all the songs on all their CD’s? They have plenty of songs that go from ones with deep meanings to party songs and then just to chill ass songs with catchy lyrics. So what? Don’t like it, don’t listen.

    I think it’s legit, fuck the haters, keep the music coming. <3

  • meh

    Its a catchy tune but its not great the band has changed and not in a good way. I miss the old HU

  • Dominic

    At least there putting something out

  • shutup!!

    Alright kids listen Hollywood Undead never said NFTUG would sound like swan songs. They said they will have creative access to the album.its o in an interview. Look it up.

  • RockGenreAddict

    not very impressed but like Neutral Blast Said i miss ur days when u did have something to say and not just about you guys ruining ur health but we are is a really good song, and dead bite. But please have a few more meanigful songs

  • NaughtyElf

    Some songs are just for fun, roll with it, HU has some great songs on all their albums if every song was serious how depressing would that be you have to livin’ things up a bit. If anything they have gotten better, American tragedy has some great songs with messages, like “Been to Hell,” “Pour Me,” “And Comin’ Back Down” to name a few and what about S.C.A.V.A? I love how HU is evolving while never compromising themselves or their art. And as for selling records, well, isn’t that sort of the goal? If they don’t sell records then HU won’t be around very long will they? That would really piss off their fans, do buy NFTU, love it and love HU. HU4L baby!

  • Undead 4 Lyfe

    everyone thats dissing HU shut tha fuck up! i mean goddamn listen to tha rest of tha songs on tha cd when its released before you go an jus dis…i dont see any of yall making any labels

  • Scare Crow

    heard this song a few minutes after it came out and it’s one of the best songs I heard!

  • makayla

    sorry for the dumm question HU4L<3
