You probably listen to a lot of bands that most people haven't ever heard of and have quite the wide palate of musical taste. If so, this is a good thing. It's something you and I have in common. But I would like you to stop for a second and think to yourself whether or not you may have gone too far in saying that Fall Out Boy continues to reinvent nothing. This is not Nickelback. The lyrics of these songs are very well written, as they are a mix of sarcastic puns and pure seriousness simultaneously that only a duo like Wentz/Stump could give us. The tunes are not rehashed, and they are very good. Now, given the entire album is Beatles influenced, especially the blatantly copied formula of What a Catch Donnie (anyone who doesn't believe me go listen to Sgt. Pepper's and see that both singing out old songs at the end and inviting tons of guest stars to sing in the chorus has been done before), but WHO CARES?!?! When a formula works, there is no reason not to do it again (provided, of course that you let some time go by before you copy the formula, like say the 40 years it's been since Sgt. Pepper's). All of music is comprised from things that have worked for others before, what makes them interesting are the different combinations in which this is done. Using the standards you have set forth, almost all music nowadays would be reinventing nothing. Hey JP,

You're supposed to have everything spelt correctly. God, I could write a better more accurate article on this song!!!!!! Fall Out Boy rocks!!!!!!!! Fall Out Boy is amazing!!!

When I first heard it, I thought "Here we go again, another slow one like Golden", but after hearing it a few times, I began to like it much more. The part towards the end with the tribute to all of their older hits is absolutely genius! Good job, boys! Keep up the amazing work! I am absolutely in love with this song.

Sure, they've always been kind of indulgent in a sense, but they're also clever as hell. This song is good but doesn't compare to their earlier stuff. Patrick sounds amazing though.

Their songs are just a sad conglomeration of the best that others have already done. They are actually getting worse. What A Catch is at best playing off cliche pop song architecture with the strings guitars and vocals. It's not striking or original in any sort of good way.Though i hate saying this Panic At The Disco is the one doing it right. The last record definitely had the members bathing in a sound of the Beatles, <i>Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band</i>, but for its extravagance it struck the right chords.Liking this music is akin to wanting Sarah Palin to be president. It's nice, comfortable and you relate to it, but it's also disarmingly intoxicating in the sense that you're more likely being duped into thinking its good vs. actually exploring your options.I mean its as bad as Coldplay's new stuff.Listen to Braid's <i>Frame and Canvas</i> if you're looking for excellence.
