Bleachers - Take The Sadness Out Of Saturday Night (July 30, 2021) Album • Page 55

fun ass song

 

This is like if the last album sounded good. Excited for the album!

 

sounds better than i remember the last record sounding but it’s been a while, i need to brush up

 

Hell yeah, fun track. Immediately made me think of Touch Me Bad. And that horn part after the final chorus sounds so much like I’m Yours by Jason Mraz it has to be intentional, right?

 

Only pain will you find.

 

jesus this is a TUNE!

 

That’s more like it.

 

On paper this band is everything I should like, but I haven’t really loved a Bleachers song since Gone Now.

 

We are so back

 

Doesn't sound similar enough to be a reference/ homage to me.

 

Thank you, trying to pinpoint what that sounded like was driving me crazy lmao

Song is fun!

 

Great song! Plus you don’t have to max out the volume to hear it!

 

“Back to work to make the vinyl deadline” so the album ain’t done lol

 

So it's "Jack Antonoff & Bleachers" now?

 

Song is up on streaming as just Bleachers

 

It's Bleachers, it's always been Bleachers
It's Jack Antonoff, it's always been Jack Antonoff
It's Jack Antonoff and Bleachers and it always has been and always will be

 

Got it, was just curious if he was pivoting to a Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band or Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers type of thing.

 

I should like this song but I don’t and I can’t put my finger on why

 

Do the random and frequent shouts bug you?

 

I think it’s cause it just sounds like several other songs thrown together. He’s influences are showing too much I think? I don’t know.

 

Is it the fourth wall breaking self references

 

It really feels like him cashing in a blank check so they can cosplay as Bruce and the E Street band. So I guess it depends how willing you are to indulge that.

 

All the above is true but like 90% of this band’s songs just put a huge smile on my face and this one’s no exception. As far as first singles go it’s about a million times better of a song than Chinatown so it has that going for it too.

 

If he wants to cosplay as Bruce, more power to him. I’m here for it.

 

I don’t mind the borrowing from Bruce here. Jack has tons of other projects/credits to his name that sound nothing like Bruce.
