Got to show No One Knows some love since I can’t choose between NGFL and Nuclear Family XD

Voted for Nice Guys Finish Last because I love that song and especially its video; however, I am kinda sad over not voting for Nightlife because I believe Nightlife does not get anywhere near the respect it deserves. It has a certain deliciousness to it and is very unique.

Music is obviously subjective. . . I won’t talk crap if you like Nightlife.
Actually, yes I will. I hate that song with a burning passion

What do you hate about it?

Nightlife really does not deserve the hate it gets.

Nightlife is definitely one of the Green Day songs ever

It’s just annoying, poorly written and feels like a missed opportunity. You can like it if you want, but I don’t see why you would.
EDIT: Just listened to it again. I stand by it feeling sloppy.

No One Knows by a landslide for me. Nuclear Family is meh. No Pride is forgettable. I like NGFL but it’s nothing special. I like Nightlife but I get why people don’t, there’s definitely a fair bit of cringe in there. Whereas No One Knows is beautiful, lovely bassline, catchy lyrics and melody, and even tho the vocals are kinda monotonous I found it fits the song really well. Definitely a favourite from Kerplunk.

I think Nice Guys Finish Last is my favorite out of these, but Nuclear Family is a great track too. The countdown at the end is cool

Glad to see No One Knows holding its own. Underrated song. Nightlife works if you take Lady Cobra’s voice off. I always wondered if I’d like it better if it were released as a Foxies song.

Ooh it’s a tie at the moment. What happens if there’s a tie? Does one of them come back as one of the wildcards?

Maybe. Not sure yet, open to suggestions!

I voted No Pride cause I love the vocal delivery and all the lyrics and harmonies, but would
love nothing more than a kerplunk song like No One Knows to win

I feel like they deliberately made it a song not to be taken overly seriously, a joke essentially. And they made a conscious choice to do something very out of character stylistically, and I think they executed it well. Still much better than all of FOAM, where the execution did not seem to match what they were trying to do stylistically.

I don’t feel like it would work without Lady Cobra though. It makes the most sense as a duet. And I like how they gave the publicity to someone from a lesser-known band.

Nightlight musically is really good but holy hell are the lyrics and vocals garbage. I’ll take Nice Guys any day. Just feels like pure punk rock/pop punk

I do like it musically as well. I wouldn’t call the lyrics garbage; I just think, as I said above, that it’s just supposed to be a dirty/funny/guilty pleasure joke of a song. It wasn’t like Billie was trying to demonstrate his songwriting prowess with this one LOL.
