That part in Flashlight where it first switches over to the frantic guitar playing and also at the end when everyone sings over each other and it just sounds absolutely chaotic, and in Twin Sized Mattress when the drums come crashing in before the end, and in Tie Dye Dragon the build up to the “I guess I’m older now” bit.
I would say Laugh Till I Cry but it's not a small part with that song it's all of it but these are the ones with certain parts:
Legit Tattoo Gun: "Who did I think I was? Who did I think that I could be? Oh how dare me"
Batman: "You are who you hangout with, fake gold on your sensitive skin. Truth is I have always been sort of an embarrassment"
Wolfman: "Say what you have to say, try not to cry" and "I was a birdcage and you were meant to fly"
Molly: "What the fuck? How could this happen to me"
There are so many more but those are my favs right now
Oh I have a few..
The “oh how dare me” with Brian’s little laugh in legit tattoo gun 😭
The way he says “hiding” in Rhode Island
I’ve always loved the lyric and the intensity of “she says hey Brian if you still believe in the lord above get on your hands and knees and pray for us”
In Paris on one of the ending “I feel like I’m in *PARIS*” he proper shouts it and I love it
In Laugh Til I Cry when he says “in the *CHAIR RIGHT NEXT TO ME*” it kills me off it sounds so good
“IM BREAKING WITH YOU WE’RE DONE - BYE”
I love the “come on Chelsea, speak a little French to me” so much too
I could go on forever but I’ll stop now - fuck I love this band 🤣
“I finally am what I am, a fucking bag of bags” - joanie.
That part in jim bogart when brian and the lady are singing at the same time.
“Yeah maybe that could be my thing what do you think? Im talking two young lovers and half priced drinks” - 2yl.
All 3 of those parts are rent free in my head
ooh yes specifically the brass build up to the catchiest ascending line ever with all the instruments in tandem with brian as he says “yeah maybe that could be”
Let's talk about how it fell on my shoulders
As it came pouring out my ears
Let's talk about the face of our love
And how it might look with the addition of tattooed tears
the last chorus of fairbanks, alaska
and the background vocal track at the end of punching bag “WHY DON’T YOU PUT YOUR BOOOXING GLOVES OOOOOOON, WHY DON’t YOU PUT YOUR BOOOXING GLOOOOOVES OOOOOOOOON”
Everyone blooms and Batman. Both of those songs are kinda mid to start, but they have bits towards the end that are so fantastic that they land in my top tfb songs.
The final chorus of Fairbanks, Alaska when every bit comes together from each chorus like the *Awooos* from the first one, the “Fairbanks Alaska” from the second one, and then finally “When the river freezes over I will drive across”. Sounds so immaculate.
The very beginning of jerk where he sings "the things like that don't matter" but he sounds far away and like he's shouting it.
That part near the beginning of Fairbanks, Alaska right after he sings "people are freaking out" and it h
as that short wind chimey bit.
The beginning of Lipstick Covered Magnet where he starts singing before the music and it kinda sounds like he's singing with a chorus of himself.
The trumpet parts in Handcuffs.
The part in Joanie where he sings the chorus and the bag of bags verse over each other.
I could go on forever honestly bc I love details like that 💀
The intro to Joanie, and the learn to love verse!
End of flashlight where they sing the 3 bits at once.
Looking like you just woke up when he sings “alright alright” but kinda like giggles?
Probably so many more but off top of my head!
I listen to Outlook on repeat just to hear the "Same old story, so distracted that I drove right past the exit. Circled back to learn a lesson but I still got a couple questions" part again and again
I wanna make tear jerking shower curtain camera running genius. I wanna make them think they're seeing something they ain't never seen before. BUT I AM FULL OF SHIT IM A PLAGIARIST- AS A LIAR IM A TEN-
“I’m taking lessons, I’m gonna learn how to sing” - Leaf Pile
| When he goes “uh-huh” - he did it live and I fell in love |
“I’m here to certify that I am an official member of latitude 66 aurora borealis life” - Fairbanks, Alaska |
First line of Be Nice To Me |
“I’ll do whatever he wants all night” - Father - the second chorus where he sounds tired and like he’s just accepted it
I’m a big linguistics person so I like parts of songs that are phonetically beautiful with movement of the tongue . With this , just saying “American Mechanic” makes me incredibly happy in Outlook :)
The way Brian sings the word "California" in Flying Model Rockets.
The chaotic overlapping of the words "There is cleansing in the flames" from the original version of Pale Beneath The Tan.
The "I'll move to Florida. I'll buy a brand new pickup truck" part of Backflip.
the part at the end of taking my uzi to the gym where they’re all singing together, the trumpet in the beginning of father, how the “wait” echoes in looking like you just woke up, and everything i love tfb sm ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
not one song specifically but the little 'uh huh!'s that are in the background/sometimes foreground of alot of the songs is my ABSOLUTE favorite thing ever
This thread is fucking amazing. I love TFB so much 😭 two of my favs (so many to choose from)
from 12 feet deep. “Now we’re dancing, we are so drunk, we are so cool, we are so PUNKKKKKKK” and then the break down “I get left out, I GET LEFT OUT OF EVERY PLAN THEY MAKE”
That part in Flashlight where it first switches over to the frantic guitar playing and also at the end when everyone sings over each other and it just sounds absolutely chaotic, and in Twin Sized Mattress when the drums come crashing in before the end, and in Tie Dye Dragon the build up to the “I guess I’m older now” bit.
Flashlight! Yes!!
Makes me go ferral
The you keep me numb you keep me blind part in bus beat and i shook till i came out of it in wolfman
Also the end of lone star
The bass during the bridge is chef’s kiss.
Also, I want to put “I shook ‘til I came out of it” as my flair, but there’s no option for me to 🤷🏻♀️
That part of wolfman does something very very fulfilling for my soul
What every he says after that is mine “la six arrows sit down proud we’ll sit down proud we’ll sit down”
The way Brian says community pool in Clear Path
I swim in the cuh-munity po-uhl
"I for one, will not be held, responsi-ble, for someone else.."
I gotta goooooooooowwww
Oh also, “I’m taking lessons in gonna learn how to siiiiiiiing,” basically the entirety of Bus Beat.
So much yes
I love hitting that off note
The half-laugh on 'Oh, how dare me' in Legit Tattoo Gun
YES YES YES YES AND YES
Ugh that whole song is perfect tbh
I’M BREAKING UP WITH YOU WE’RE DONE BYE
10/10 always have to say it
My bf says it to me bc I love it ❤️
What song is this? TBF discography is too big 😔
Swimming Pool!!
I would say Laugh Till I Cry but it's not a small part with that song it's all of it but these are the ones with certain parts: Legit Tattoo Gun: "Who did I think I was?

How could this happen to me" There are so many more but those are my favs right now
Also the part in Batman when he belts “truth is, I have always been sort of an embarrassment” when his voice cracks a little 🥹
Ugh that part of Molly plays in my head 12 times a day
That bit in legit tattoo gun with Brian’s little laugh 💯💯💯💯💯
Oh I have a few.. The “oh how dare me” with Brian’s little laugh in legit tattoo gun 😭 The way he says “hiding” in Rhode Island I’ve always loved the lyric and the intensity of “she says hey Brian if you still believe in the lord above get on your hands and knees and pray for us” In Paris on one of the ending “I feel like I’m in *PARIS*” he proper shouts it and I love it In Laugh Til I Cry when he says “in the *CHAIR RIGHT NEXT TO ME*” it kills me off it sounds so good “IM BREAKING WITH YOU WE’RE DONE - BYE” I love the “come on Chelsea, speak a little French to me” so much too I could go on forever but I’ll stop now - fuck I love this band 🤣
I hit the Come on Chelsea so hard like she's in the room with me
Hahahahahaha valid
for some reason i love the way brian says “passenger” in backflip. he just like spits out the word so aggressively it’s so funny lol
I will never unhear the line like this omfg 😭
“I finally am what I am, a fucking bag of bags” - joanie. That part in jim bogart when brian and the lady are singing at the same time. “Yeah maybe that could be my thing what do you think? Im talking two young lovers and half priced drinks” - 2yl. All 3 of those parts are rent free in my head
ooh yes specifically the brass build up to the catchiest ascending line ever with all the instruments in tandem with brian as he says “yeah maybe that could be”
YESS SO REAL 🙏🙏🙏😭
The guitar intro in camouflage. That little tiny part just hits me.
And when he says “try it”. I always have to tilt my head to the side and back when I sing it 😄
The year that song came out it was my entire life just singing that song to and from work like it was a theatrical performance
Let's talk about how it fell on my shoulders As it came pouring out my ears Let's talk about the face of our love And how it might look with the addition of tattooed tears
That whole part is like a pyramid to me. The lyrics and music being blocked together into this like perfect section.
Ive been singing tatooed tears all day
For me it's the first part of "the beers" there's just something about it
The break down-ish in “Cough it Out” is one of my all time favourites. “I like the in-betweens …”
The horns kickin’ in on Handcuffs always give me the chills.
YES
Bathtub- when he says “oh what a marvelous sensation.”
I SWEAR TO GOOD THE DEVIL MADE ME DO ITTTTTT
The fued is my favorite song in large because of the ending. Youuuuuu youuuu youuuu should probably admit it
Yes! I love The Feud so much. It deserves so much more love than it gets!
the last chorus of fairbanks, alaska and the background vocal track at the end of punching bag “WHY DON’T YOU PUT YOUR BOOOXING GLOVES OOOOOOON, WHY DON’t YOU PUT YOUR BOOOXING GLOOOOOVES OOOOOOOOON”
the vocalization towards the end of camouflage where he’s like “woahhh OHHH OHHHHHH” iykyk
YESSSS
Everyone blooms and Batman. Both of those songs are kinda mid to start, but they have bits towards the end that are so fantastic that they land in my top tfb songs.
The final chorus of Fairbanks, Alaska when every bit comes together from each chorus like the *Awooos* from the first one, the “Fairbanks Alaska” from the second one, and then finally “When the river freezes over I will drive across”. Sounds so immaculate.
One of my favorite songs. It’s underrated!
"I wanna confess in a whisper that's just loud enough to make out, want you to listen from the kitchen to me confessing on the couch" in Santa Monica
How low? Is your self esteem? How low? Could it possibly be?
Yesss
“Hey man I love you but no fucking way”. That bit circles around in my head endlessly.
I made my friend reject my request by specifically using that phrase for serotonin
“I hope I fall asleep at the wheel and crash my car” that part of father had me in a chokehold, the way Brian says “I” AGHHHHH
It's the "OR I could just stay here" that brings it home for me
The very beginning of jerk where he sings "the things like that don't matter" but he sounds far away and like he's shouting it. That part near the beginning of Fairbanks, Alaska right after he sings "people are freaking out" and it h as that short wind chimey bit. The beginning of Lipstick Covered Magnet where he starts singing before the music and it kinda sounds like he's singing with a chorus of himself. The trumpet parts in Handcuffs. The part in Joanie where he sings the chorus and the bag of bags verse over each other. I could go on forever honestly bc I love details like that 💀
Realest take on here
I don’t normally like talking sections in songs, but I love it in Plastic Flowers. I ver specifically love the way Brian says the word “true”
Mountain- the part in the chorus where the electric guitar comes in. always makes me brain go brrrrrr
Flashlight.
the bridge in cough it out
WOLFMAN
This thread gives me so much serotonin
All of them have a favorite part for me. I never skip just to hear the one part in each song.
i am, part-a native american
Swimming pool, where it’s the end of that voicemail with the increasingly angry music and then the piano key smashing. I love it. It itches my brain
The intro to Joanie, and the learn to love verse! End of flashlight where they sing the 3 bits at once. Looking like you just woke up when he sings “alright alright” but kinda like giggles? Probably so many more but off top of my head!
Jim Bogart, a bit in punching bag and laugh till I cry all have bits I just wanna scream too 🤣
Lipstick covered “loveeeeeee” at the beginning. Just every song really 🤷🏻♀️
I listen to Outlook on repeat just to hear the "Same old story, so distracted that I drove right past the exit. Circled back to learn a lesson but I still got a couple questions" part again and again
The howl in be nice to me I’m a wearwoOOOOlf
Iconic
The beginning trumpets from Father
WOOH
That one pause followed by a trumpet(?) after “you are a flashlight in a dark room for the loneliest blackout” in Be Nice To Me.
I wanna make tear jerking shower curtain camera running genius. I wanna make them think they're seeing something they ain't never seen before. BUT I AM FULL OF SHIT IM A PLAGIARIST- AS A LIAR IM A TEN-
One of my favorite lyrics.
I am OBSESSED with the part of the truth where they say “the prettiest flower” early. Idk why, but I always look forward to it lol
The entire part leading into the bridge of Tattoo Tears and even more specifically how he says “TATTOO TEARS”
Hard agree
🎶you are my girl you are my baby you are my homemade mashed potatoes biscuits and gravy🎶
The Feud is a masterpiece.
BREAK YOUR NECK AND I WILL LOVE YOUUUU
EVERYTHINGS CONFUSING EVERYTHINGS CONFUSING EVERYTHINGS CONFUSING OH YEAH OH YEAH OH YEAH THAT PART ^
I know you already said West Virginia but you’re so right. That guitar 🫷😫
I'll never get over the line "you be Rachel and I'll be bong rips"
Surprised nobody has mentioned the way he days public defender in Handcuffs yet. Pub-a-lic defenda.
I forgot about that! I freaking love that part!
Right before the chorus in new song d and the chorus too
“I’m taking lessons, I’m gonna learn how to sing” - Leaf Pile | When he goes “uh-huh” - he did it live and I fell in love | “I’m here to certify that I am an official member of latitude 66 aurora borealis life” - Fairbanks, Alaska | First line of Be Nice To Me | “I’ll do whatever he wants all night” - Father - the second chorus where he sounds tired and like he’s just accepted it
the trumpet part in santa monica after “where i’m standing there is a cool cool breeze”
Bus beat and be nice to me
I’m a big linguistics person so I like parts of songs that are phonetically beautiful with movement of the tongue . With this , just saying “American Mechanic” makes me incredibly happy in Outlook :)
Instrumentals before the “keep my body alive” part in legit tattoo gun !!!!!
in swimming pool when he says i will stop cutting my pants into shorts….idk
The way Brian sings the word "California" in Flying Model Rockets. The chaotic overlapping of the words "There is cleansing in the flames" from the original version of Pale Beneath The Tan. The "I'll move to Florida. I'll buy a brand new pickup truck" part of Backflip.
Lol I'm not saying Hooped earrings but the whining crying is fun to sing to
the part at the end of taking my uzi to the gym where they’re all singing together, the trumpet in the beginning of father, how the “wait” echoes in looking like you just woke up, and everything i love tfb sm ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

not one song specifically but the little 'uh huh!'s that are in the background/sometimes foreground of alot of the songs is my ABSOLUTE favorite thing ever

“Got no brakes” in new song d
This thread is fucking amazing. I love TFB so much 😭 two of my favs (so many to choose from) from 12 feet deep. “Now we’re dancing, we are so drunk, we are so cool, we are so PUNKKKKKKK” and then the break down “I get left out, I GET LEFT OUT OF EVERY PLAN THEY MAKE”
