So ug
Forest 
@sonic olive WHY.
IF RUBY DOESNT WIN IM CANCELLING BREACH
I'm sorry ruby but i'm gonna go with forest
I need to go with Forest
Just tell me which to vote
You’ve gotta be kidding me rn
||the rain||
This is not what I had planned 🤷♂️
Forest has my heart
But Ruby
Slowtown
Forest
Kitchen sink
ruby my beloved
RUBY I HOPE I SEE U
Oh Ruby is like my third favorite song of theirs. Frick yeah
RUBY
forest is one of two songs i enjoy off rab so
I don't like any of them they sound bad to me
ruby sweep
Ruby sweep
STOP
Ok
Ppl glaze Ruby too much
anathema will win
LOL
Forest
Ruby for real
forest was a vessel track to the uk clique 😼
I'm going Forest though Ruby will probably win
then don’t vote bruh
AAAAAA
dawg its forest
No
It’s just a good song
😔
Wow
Does it bother anyone else that someone else has your name?🗣️
I can’t choose bro
respectfully if ruby wins i will riot
Quickly moving towards a storm
You can't you're not blurryface💀💀
Ruby
YOUR AN ANGELLLLL
this is EVIL
Moving forward torn
Ruby obviously
forest but only if it's the vessel bonus track version..
my neck was literally turning black a few weeks ago
Into pieces over reasons of what these storms are for
forest 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
without forest we wouldnt have so many fun fan creations (iykyk)
The WHAT?
I don't understand why everyhing I adore
YOU'RE AN ASIAAAAAAAN
or alternatively
URINATIOOOOOON
Real
Okay actually maybe Ruby won't win despite the amount of love I've seen towards it
Because Forest is good
And your hands?
RUBY ❤️
Maybe clancy can seize me and use my body to defend himself from nico 🙂↕️
yes i think
Takes a different form when I squit my eyes
Idk I think it's actually pretty close
YOURE AN EGGSHELLLLLLLL
the version that's on vessel as a bonus track, cause the one on rab is shit ngl
😟😟
Did not know about this, will need to check it out
I thought rab forest was the same
everything takes a different shape when i squint my eyes have you ever done that when you squint your eyes and your eyelashes make it look a little not right
Forgot what time this was I just left my house lol ssshh discord I got things to do
Well dang
forest!!
This is hard because the bridge of Forest EATS.....but Ruby as a whole is an AMAZING song
never heard ruby but i love forest too much to let anything beat it
FOREST MY LIFESAVER
should i listen to ruby
nooo, that has a lot of autotune, I do not like the autotune 😭
yeahh.. is it NOT the same?
LISTEN TO RUBY WTF
i’ll listen to ruby and comment back bang
you're thinking of the wrong thing what
Forest ftw
Forest autotune is NOTHING compared to some other songs
RAB trees
oh I know, but still too much 😭
RUBY SHOULD WIN
rab lovely
idk it sounds fine
RUBYYYYYYYYY
RUBY I HOPE I SEE YOU
lovely was amazing on vessel
RUBY
exactly
FOREST MY PEAK.
Like everything on RAB it’s not peak
Ruby clears. Only reason forest would win is cause its one of the only rab songs still played live
I actually love that song even though the quality is kind of terrible
just wait until you hear the vessel version, you'll get it then 😌
Ok I voted Ruby I love that song
peak vs peak, difficult to choose
Not true
Ok this is hard
Memegod piss off
Nah
Fr
The Clancy PFP you’re so cool
Ruby is nothing compared to Forest
What you don’t have bees to glaze
forest sucks
You can get your ears cleaned for free depending on your location btw
Go listen to overcompensate or something
Love Forest’s lyrics, but love the screams in Ruby too
They both suck, but Forest is better
FOREST GET BEHIND ME
I think I will
Ok just started listening to it, it sounds the exact same
LEVEL UP: You are now level 2!
The ruby scream is worse
I'm taking Ruby here, it's a lot sweeter imo. Forest might have been a contender but it has the 'I scream you scream' line and an awful rap verse
????
Tyler seems to prefer Forest more considering how much he plays it live, but Ruby is still special
Much*
Forest is the stressed out of rab
you think the regular ass scream in ruby is worse than the corny whiny forest rap
Actually not even the scream just the whole ending of it. It just HAS to turn into an overproduced mess at the end
where he talks about squinting the whole time shit is ass
both ass songs
Hi Indigold
cringe
THANK YOU
yall suck
Forest is way fucking better than Ruby. I skip Ruby 9/10 times
but thats what you get when you do shitty at best
Ruby clears icl
No Ruby sucks
what the hell ruby is so good guys but i still prefer forest
This lack of taste is criminal
Low tier bait
I mean tyler doing forest on the street is peak but ruby clears everything
My ears are just fine. Ruby sucks
i’ll listen to forest rab tho 😔
I didn't know RAB had this many haters
Wdym lack of taste, RAB lacks good
Contradictory statement
ruby is so goated i rememver having the lyrics stuck in my head during primary school
Literally
hey bestie
Wasn't bait. I genuinely skip it almost every time
ruby is all time best tøp song im dying on that hill
RAB is universally voted the worst TOP album not even fans just anyone who’s heard music before
'i scream you scream we all scream cause we're terrified'
💀 💀 💀 nah bruh no way this beats ruby
i listened to RAB trees and had a very big 😨 on my face the whole time
I'm sorry but forest
They’re both really good, might put it to a coin flip
Shame
wait I haven't listened to the rab version in a long time hold on -
It's their weakest album for sure, but it has several good songs
i do think forest is better
I don’t think either of them is winning the whole thing, so I’ll just have to pick one
For real 💀💀💀
someone let me know when r*gional at best is done
no way u prefer sai over rab
My top 2 RAB songs are the RAB versions of guns for hands and HOTY but I already know ppl are gonna vote them out
die
RAB is undeniably hot and cold, but inbetween, its like, boiling hot to icy cold. 70% of my favourite songs are there
oh so now masterpieces are slurs too 😔
what masterpiece
NO WAY YOU JUST DISSED SAI LIKE
THAT
now thats crazy, i do love sai but i love rab so much more
im going to send you to hell
more of an RAB diss than an SAI diss imo
hating one but then loving the other is a strange take
Nah this guy is saying SAI is on RAB’s level
Okay but sai actually is better quality wise. I like both but sai was created at a time when they had more skill and experience and they all actually sound pleasant
forest made me fall in love with tøp
i want to call you slurs but that will get me banned
shy away is like the only song i truly bop to from that album
^
PREACH
DOWN IN THE FOREST WE’LL SING A CHORUS ONE THAT EVERYBODYYY KNOOOOOOWS
Damn, that one’s my least favorite from the album
i dont hate sai
why did you wake up violent today 😭
okay it's less autotune than I remember please disregard what I said before, but it does still sound different to me somehow
gng we ALL reprising rab 🙏❤️
Forest my beloved (I love ruby so much as welllll this isnt fairrrr)
RaB has perfect writing, the only problem is that it was made using a potato
I forget we not getting the bonus tracks in the vessel battle
yes and Clear is still the best tøp song
"i scream you screm we all scream cs were terrified"
thats good writing to you?
THANK YOU
It's not bad
It’s very bad
All albums have weird lines like that
it's extremely bad
worse than blurryfaces writing
It's the ice cream rhyme
they have worse
Rab stopped being sold for a reason. They said themselves that they wanted something more professional or something, I believe.
But rab is still so peak in some ways
yes why is it in a song
that doesn't make them good lines
I didn't say it did
It's a play on a popular kids rhyme because the point of forest and a lot of tøp songs have to do with growing up too fast???
yes but it sounds like crap
It's a play on words It's good writing
yeah but its not good
I thank my lucky stars RAB isn’t available on streaming. A TERRIBLE look for the band for someone getting into them
I love that line it's so jarring in a good way
I just really want Be Concerned, Clear, Ruby, Anathema and Slowtown on spotify
i just think sai is extremely different from their previous sound and ik its due to lore but im not a fan of it at all
i still bop to it ofc but rab is def better
You see, that one line isn't the entirety of rab
hi helioks
You can dislike it but it's not a bad lyric
THIS PLEASE I BEG
hi
it really is
MY TOP FIVE 😭
Oh yeah it's probably a good thing only people who are more into them will likely find it
Idk i appreciate the meaning over the sound most times. Rab has a lot of lyrics that just clicked with me, even if it was made with a potato
ouch i love both of those but ruby means a lot to me so… im so sorry forest
ruby 😭😭
also I need No Phun Intended on Spotify but that's another battle... 😭
Let's see your songwriting skills then?
HA, indigold go ahead
This is easy guys righhttttrrrr
okay but why are you so against rab? can i ask who asked (politely no rudeness intented)
it is absolutely a bad lyric, they could have written it and sung it in so many different ways but they didn't. it comes off very unprofessional and it sounds bad
ah shit 
As much as I love rab I fully admit it is somewhat low quality
gotta be forest even though the concept of ruby is really cool
Back when I was 8 years old and I hadn't even heard a quarter of their discography I found forest and I loved it
ill give you mt spotify when i release music
Ruby play for sure
nri; no rudeness intented holy moly - im a genius (its 3am)
I kind of thought it was meant to sound childish
Better quality than a lot of rab
im working on it 😔
even thought RAB is definitely questionable in terms of sound quality and quality as a whole i still really like it tbh 😭😭😭
imo they could have referenced the childishness of it without actually sounding bad
prolly bc it was josh and tylers first album together and they were experimenting
rab is charming for alot of the songs
dw that wasn’t directed at just you, I just think the band is so consistent in certain areas that I find it hard to dislike one album then love a similar album at the same time, feels contradicting in some ways
Yeah I get it
RaB was almost all Tyler
true yeah, but it’s the mark of the true fan if they actually search for rab
Charming in the same way DJ Khaled as a person is charming
forest is the best song on rab
guys i ESPECIALLY love rab house of gold i say wearing the lie hat
Idk if you know it’s universally thought of as the worst TOP album for these reasons. The vocals are terrible with the cracks in most of the songs. The mixing is ass with those ear grating high frequency synths on songs like anathema and clear, and the autotune on RAB lovely and RAB trees, just the sound on most songs from RAB makes them unlistenable
Fr
glowing eyes and forest the best two songs
“my treehouse is on fire and for some reason I smell gas on my hands” versus “you should bounce bounce bounce man”
me who actually likes RAB house of gold:
bounce man worst on Sai
LMAO so true
matter of fact he didn't learn how to rap until Trench but ik that's a conversation nobody is ready for
Ugh
THIS IS NOT WHAT I HAD PLANNED
Still A tier
Never Take It is worse
!!!!
That’s debatable
HAHA YESSIR
i hope next time you eat smthn it dissapears and you die of starvation
never take it is actually a banger and idc what anyone says you CANNOT change my opinion
No. It's the mark of a fan who wants to listen to it. There's plenty of 'true' fans that don't go searching for more obscure things. They're still 'true' fans either way, there's just some fans that want to get more into it /lh
i love sai dearly but my least fav is good day 😭😭😭
hds has the only good Tyler rap verse pre-Trench to be honest
never take it is so politcal
how can yall shit on rab thou for bad quality but eat up no phun
I will say that while they are all definitely worse versions than the later versions, the best songs off of vessel all came from rab
That’s fair
The rain
Tell our dad I’m sorry
glowing eyes is so good i hope it wins
Who eats up NPI what
save the SAI opinions for the SAI vote, don’t want to get all the hot takes out now
I love never take it so much
drown blasphemy and save
hey I like Never Take It, it's just the most filler track of the album imo. it is the least important thematically
still a bop tho
The autotune thing is entirely opinion. I don't mind the autotune on lovely, but i understand why some people do. The quality is mid tho. At least in anathema I find some meaning in it (I just wish it didn't give me a headache)
yeah true, usually i mean “true” fan when they go deep into it, people can still be true fans without listening to rab /thismakesnosenselol
Drown is easily the best one, blasphemy close second. Idk NPI is unpleasant on a bunch of the songs but still easily better than RAB
RUBY
erm somebody here was literally like "i want npi on spotify"
I mean technically Saturday is the most filler track because it was just literally designed to be like a 'radio hit song'
Save's screams give me goosebumps everytime but its still mid
Just to clarify that wasn’t me
alot of NPI is mid but drown save blasphemy are peak
Sai is my favorite tho nothing will make me hate it Saturday is amazing
I would say Saturday is more important because of the video it got, on its own I'd agree tho
Ah yeah I see. Apologies if I came off as rude or anything, I just have a huge issue with gatekeeping the community
SAAAAAAAAAVEEEEEEEEEEE
i didn't realize people disliked NPI and RAB
i don't listen to either as much as i used to these days but i still love them. opinions are valid tho!!
I never got the hype around save but drown and blasphemy…
forest!
save is just very strong with the scream
i have a hot take but it is not one i can share here
I mean yeah the video makes it important but I still think the song in general is basically designed to be a filler
say it
that's fair
Also I think forest or slowtown should win but it's prolly gonna be kitchen sink
Nah you’re good, i’ve been a victim of gatekeeping too and i rlly hate it
real i love both but i also don’t listen to either as much as i used to 😔 i never really got into NPI though tbh
Eh I honestly think shy away is more of a filler than Saturday
DOWN IN THE FOREST WELL SING A CHORUS ONE THAT EVERYBODY KBOWS
Hope it’s Glowing Eyes
it better be lovely or glowing ehest
this
Same!!!
glowing eyes is so amazing
Guys we all know forest solos
kinton let me call you names
AND I HOPE THEY PERFORM IT LIVE THIS TIME AROUND
glowing eyes is by far my favorite RAB song honestly
I think shy away was designed to help Tyler's brother learn to songwrite so I think it has more meaning than that
Come at me lil man
nah Shy Away is for his son, it's very cleverly written and it makes sense in the context of the album. def better than Saturday and Never Take It
glowing eyes my beloved
Son?!
LEVEL UP: You are now level 48!
Sick
W TAKE
I don't see any sai songs as very filler tbh. They all just fit together well imo
Sai is a peak feel good album
real, same
That's how I feel too
hold on gangalang gotta see how much words i types
wait elaborate, i’ve nevee heard this but it sounds rlly interesting
typed
Plus it's so short it doesn't NEED any filler songs
YES
His son was born 3 years later
feel good as long as you don’t look too deep into the lyrics! Just listen to the sounds because that’s all there is!!
I thought shy away was for his brother
Wait Tyler has a son
future son then right? I was sure it was for like a child he would have
your father shouldve worn contraception
LEVEL UP: You are now level 4!
Yeah he was born lastyear
WHAT
Tyler has 3 kids
yes but its happy to listen to
!!!
NPI my beloved, Self Titled my beloved, RAB my beloved, Vessel my beloved, Blurryface my beloved, Trench my beloved, SAI my beloved, Clancy my beloved, Breach my (soon to be) beloved
@buoyant mesa sorry for ping gonna dm you gng
I knew he had at least one daughter, maybe two, didn't know about a son
message is yoo large for what id like
yes!!!
Sai is imo the most heartbreaking and dark album they've ever made
Uh, ok?

LEVEL UP: You are now level 4!
This is criminal wtf
YEAH 😭
lmaoooo how did you read it
I thought the top was normal shy away and bottom was Livestream 😭😭😭didn't realize they both were but bottom was the weird album thing Spotify makes
XDDD
LMAOOO
W pfp
While we're on the topic of SAI lyrics have y'all seen the OH Redecorate lyrics
Cuz it fits into my allegory and theory of the song so well but it's so heartbreaking
i need an explanation though how tf does fm think i have 3000 scrobbles..
ty!!! MTV's Downtown my beloved
gone too soon but never forgotten (by me)
Real 💔
I think thats of all time
NO
It was so good for like no reason at all 💔
Like in total you have 3k+
literally!!
SORRY
yea but like i listen to music almost every day how is it only that 😭
THAT WAS ME ACCIDENTALLY TAPPING
fm hates me
Lmaoo
Too real 💔
Said allegory is the lyrics representing someone who's trans btw I made a whole ass twt thread about it cuz it fits so well
Real. I think it skipped over 90% of my streams for the contract
THIS
It says heathens is my most listened to (I don't like heathens and I've only listened to it twice on this account)
RUBYYYYYYY
344…
It has chlorine as my most streamed this month, I've only listened to it like twice recently
The pronoun switches talking about name changes like BROOOOO
i think thats a bit low 💀
Your Last.FM username isn't connected!
WHAT
the vocals seem crisper (same audio format, quality) but i still don't really hear autotune in the original
Accurate
Y'all how do I connect Nico 💔
LEVEL UP: You are now level 3!
It should be like /. Fm link or connect or smth idk
yeah seems I misremembered that, thinking all of rab was mostly autotune 😅
I dunno
I'm figuring it out
Tyyyt

Forest is sooo overrated i'm pickinh the drum-screaming masterpiece Ruby
Ruby is a winner for me
Forest is fantastic
im sorry yall, but fuck forest
I wish Ruby would win, it kinda clears imo but unfortunately forest is a fan fav
And the only rab song I’ve heard live thank you Forest
forest is a good song but im sticking wit ruby until the end of my days
Forest is good but I love ruby
I love Ruby too
I just like Forest more
Forest🎄 🌳 🌲
i keep changing my vote 💔 this is too hard
Forest might have had a good chance of winning for me but the rap verse sucks and it has the i scream line so
ruby it is
also ruby is so sweet
I absolutely love the backstory to it
Ruby is sweet but forest is the goat
Nah I fw the rap in Forest heavy
Forest, glowing eyes, and slowtown are the goats
Glowing eyes is my favorite for sure
So we all agree glowing eyes is winning this
hopefully
Slowtown is peak
I don't remember the last time I listened to Slowtown
I'll add it to my current queue
I do enjoy Slowtown I wouldn’t be mad if it won
rab lovely better not win
I’m sorry lovely is ass
I wouldn’t be mad it lovely won I love it
Vessel lovely is great
I just like rab
Vessel lovely is amazing
rab lovely is some of Tyler's worst vocals ever
Rab lovely is booty
I do agree this version is better but I still really enjoy the rab
It’s just so nostalgic to me
you're welcomee
And I enjoy that feeling
I wouldn’t say it sounds like he’s bad at singing they just hadn’t figured out how to use autotune properly yet
You were 6 when rab came out tf you nostalgic for?? 😭
💀
Bro was nostalgic for pre k
Obviously I didn’t listen to it when I was 6, songs I listened to at 13 are nostalgic for me
bro forgot you can be nostalgic for things that you learned about after they released
David Bowie songs are nostalgic for me and I wasn’t even alive yet for most his songs
So does trees RAB
No it wasn’t I’m a liar
rab trees is worse by a mile tho
Yeah
it's varying degrees of suckiness
But forest and ruby are both goated
I don’t really want either of them to be out so quickly
Only one I have on my playlist other than the non re-recorded (forest glowing eyes kitchen sink and lovely don’t count in American) is ode to sleep cause I lowkey like ots rab more
Forest is close to being goated but it has the rap verse and the i scream line
so I can't vote for it
in good conscience
I scream line is fire
no it isn't
The rap verse is my favorite part of any song they’ve ever made
Yes it is you don’t know ball
forest wins
it's straight up bad writing
I have Travis Scott saying yee in my ears you think I know what bad writing is
In good conscience is crazy a song doesn’t have to be perfect in order to like/enjoy it, but fair enough
TB Saga is perfect
I'm not saying that, I just mean in good conscience in terms of being true to my taste
I wouldn’t trade any lyric in forest for anything
I don’t think I take these as seriously
Even if the I scream line is a little weird
Having weird lyrics is their trademark at this point
Also the rap in forest is just cool
but they have a bunch of songs with weird lyrics that aren't also bad
Quickly moving towards the storm moving forward torn
I love the rap in forest like a weirdly large amount that shit needs to be played at my wedding
Anyway I still don’t know which one to pick
Agreed 🙂↕️
The thing I’ll give forest is my love
fair
And my hand in marriage
well if it's gonna be played at your wedding that's a conflict of interest
Yeah that’s a good point
forest sweep
I love both so much 💔
Ruby is too much sometimes, Forest is my pick
forest is one of the best tøp songs of all time, even though ruby is also a banger, but i have to pick forest for this one 🫶
FOREST MY BELOVED
if forest doesn't win I'm cancelling all of you
nah i voted for ruby i'm sorry
I mean.. forest but it sucks I have to vote against ruby so soon
okay so
okay so i dislike you :(
I've relistened to Forest
and I think I'm gonna vote Forest
I still hate the I scream line
but the chorus is too good
Isn’t it??
let it never be said that Mental is closedminded
Ruby is simply just better
Not to mention it’s beautiful live
I've been listening to forest on loop for about 23 hours straight
I have not seen it live but I can imagine so
no don't get me wrong forest is objectively better but we gotta give ruby a chance it's such a good song and it's not far from forest
Well neither have I I just watch recordings of it
nope forest is miles ahead
I really love ruby, it’s so pretty…
It is!
And I still have not voted
Ruby is so good
Because I cannot decide
I dont remember how ruby sounds so forest
no vote forest
propaganda
if you're so confident in forest's superiority, you shouldn't be worried about people hearing out both options before voting
the forest is burning and the fire is glowing ruby red (chemical leak)
my favorite album is sai i love spreading the propaganda
shhh stop being logical
So you admit to it then!!
nahhh i just remembered taxi cab lost against trapdoor not by much but it still lost i hate y'all
oh ive never denied being anti propaganda
im too lazy
Pitiful.
then don't vote
but i did
me when friend please lost to air catcher
Then suffer without the knowledge of ruby from RAB
FRRR
ive listened to it but i forgot about it
abstain from voting in solidarity with rab trees
friend please best song on self titled I'll die on that hill
ohh so you are lazy enough to not listen to ruby but you weren't lazy to vote /j
friend please is my second favorite from self titled
That’s so sad!!!
that's fair i like trapdoor more but friend please is a close second
this is the only correct answer
No /j you’re right
nah but fr make some justice for my boy rab trees
I just think Friend Please is an insanely mature song and it works so well. it's like atrofd but better
Oh my cheese here we go again
okay no /j then
My brain is weird.
Trapdoor is melodically gorgeous tho
yeah, trapdoor was the first self titled song i liked so its special but they're both amazing
not better then taxi cab tho it should've been
- taxi cab
- trapdoor
- friend, please
Daaamn friend please is better than attrofd is a very hot take (not that I necessarily disagree w you)
okay that's fair
and friend please is DEFINITELY better than air catcher
I have historically not been fond of atrofd. I feel like they have evolved so far in their writing stylistically and atrofd comes off very straightforward and on the nose which I don't tend to enjoy from the pilots
sonically it's nice
but not enough for it to be more than like a 6/10 for me
Oh this is criminal
I agree to an extent? It is a very blunt song. But also I’d argue that songs like that being blunt and straightforward while every song around them is so poetic is kind of necessary and probably intentional
currently we are in very peaceful territory but i'll torture y'all if you don't vote for the right things on vessel and bf
sometimes you just need to be told, "hey, check in on your friends". especially with the fanbase that twenty one pilots have
I do get that, but I also think if they were gonna do that it should have been earlier on in the album, next to like Lavish and The Craving. not the penultimate track
Bc like, a straightforward, easy to understand. Request for you to man up and check in on people
Fair
MY FAV ALMBUM YES
forest my goat
DOWN IN THE FOREST
WE'LL SING A CHORUS
i really like ruby and forest
ONE YHAT EVERYBODY KNOWS
should i just flip a coin?
Me rn
Yes
Flip it for me too
I can’t choose
just vote forest
definitely but it could have been done with more tact I think. like they have an insane track record of songs about suicide with Neon Gravestones and Redecorate etc and atrofd just feels kinda blunt and forced in a sense
Heads forest because heads is best and forest is best
heads for forest, tail for ruby
Hey we can all flip a coin!
wasn't handled as delicately as it should have been imo
Yeah that’s fair I guess
alright we going for ruby

Yippee!
i do like ruby a smidge more than forest
It’s just so pretty
but not enough to have a clear favorite
example of a song that handles suicide in a blunt way but ALSO very tactfully and beautifully: Russian Roulette by Porter Robinson. listen to it y'all you will not regret it I promise
I can’t. Close the chat. To see the vote
I will do that
I will plug Porter Robinson forever
And hey, also friend please
As you were saying
the whole album is like that tbf but Russian Roulette is specifically on that topic
That’s understandable, although I think the bluntness is part of its charm — the song is a reminder and also like a personal feelings thing, but I know what you mean
truth
yeah that's fair, I just think that it wasn't done to their usual standard
it has charm but charm doesn't save it
True
Hey to each their own
yep
It’s my no means a bad song, it’s still special to a lot of people including myself, but compared to other songs it could’ve been done better
yall
I think the only song by them I dislike bc of the bluntness would be smithereens, I love the song for its instrumentals but don’t care for the lyrics much
anyway listen to the album SMILE! :D by Porter Robinson y'all I promise it's goated
See I think I have to be loyal to Forest but RUBY IS SO GOOD
i read the fic the my non tøp fan friend group
no way im not voting for forest
I cannot
so close after that incident
Choose
I think Smithereens is a great song but it should have been next to Legend or something, not in between Chlorine and Neon Gravestones
Ik we flipped the coin
But still
Feels wrong voting for Ruby
No we going forest
Because the intro heals my soul
Even though Ruby is fire
Yeah, but also just lyrically it feels kinda bland. Like every other Jenna song has felt so poetic and clever but smithereens lyrics I feel could be in a pop song on the radio
that's understandable
I actually can’t pick with this one
IKR
i love ruby but F O R E S T
RUUUBYYYY I HOPE I SEE YOU
vs.
DOWN IN THE FORREESSTT
songs on the radio are ok
I can’t pick bc I can’t figure out how to close the thread and see the poll
goated pfp
Thx
Ye but my taste in music *dies
There should be an arrow at the top
That just takes me away
but my taste in music is your FACE
Stay alive, stay alive for YOUR FACE
Maybe reload/close and reopen?
you’re an anGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEL
vs
this is not what you’re supposed to see please remember me i am supposed to be king of a kingdom or swinging on a swing something
also y'all I got my dad to watch all the lore videos the other night and explained the whole thing to him, I don't think he's quite a clikkie yet but he's on the right path and I think I'll get him pre-Breach 🗣️ 🗣️ 🔥 🔥 🔥
Nope
YOU’RE AN ANGEEEEEEELLLLLLL
Pain
look if slowtown doesn't make it i will be sad
I did the same thing w my sister the other day 🔥🔥🔥
I’ll cry but also forest
TELL OUR DAD I'M SORRY
BUT WITH YOUR GREAT ARRIVAL, THAT SHADE HAS TURNED TO REDDD
he likes The Judge a lot
sickk
The Judge is peak
Real. Except for RAB Trees
My dads favorite song is routines in the night
I can hit the high notes and he only just can't which is fun lmho
I can ONLY hit the high notes 😭
I think she was overwhelmed with the sheer amount of it all but she sat and listened through it anyway
mine was too but she's fully into it now
her fav album is sai
They usually are overwhelmed lmao
when i was younger i forgot religion exists and just thought he was incestuous
Omg that’s my favorite too
still loved the song
Oh you KNOW she’s goated if it’s Sai
HUH
my sister is absolutely goated
TELL OUR DAD IM SORRY???
The boys including mark and Paul need to see how much we love RAB around here and get FBR to give it to us officially
best sister in the world
Do you not know the song?
I DO
SAI took a while to grow on me, but once it did, it GREW on me
I just looked at the above convo 
forest was my first ever tøp song, so I'll definitely go with that one
2 of my all time favorite songs are on Sai 💕
BUT THE WHOLE SONG HAS LIKE SEVERAL REFRENCES TO CHRISTIANITY?
Redecorate and Saturday 💪
I think our dad refers to God?
YESSSSSSSS
I HAVE REALLY STRONG CRUSHES WHICH FEEL LIKE WORSHIPPING A GOD SO I PARTIALLY GOT IT
I still remember someone saying Saturday was ass and I FOUGHT for it
I love Saturday but I can only listen to it on Saturday
I am neurodivergent and also stupid a little so when I was littler listening to tøp less obsessively than I do now I did not understand the metaphors and thought they were being fr, so guns for hands actually had guns, for hands
ME TOO
ALWAYS fight for Saturday
ik this message was ages ago but UGH I love this song
RAHH
Saturday is one of my favs
wait it’s SATURDAY TODAY
I promise I will listen to it
is it truely saturday if its not on a saturday?
let me know when you do and what you think
AAAAA
Sorry, sorry…
And I pray that that word was heard
Tell our dad I’m sorry
Someone else said he knows she’ll sadly probably get to see our dad sooner so he wants her to pass it along
If I’m interpreting this correctly, I’m the same with crushes
Tyler casually being a lyrical mastermind at 17
Guys listen to Saturday today
I WILL
and then made the lane boy line
Someone told me I write lyrics like Tyler but in my own style and that fulfilled me
wild I turned 17 3 years ago, I still feel 17 now
The raised in the hood part?
I listened to NPI soon before Mr. Misty Eyed and it’s so good. Tough to listen to chase it’s from a place in life I’ve been, so meaningful.
yep thats the one
I’m turning 17 this November. I wanna make songs but like I can NOT 😭 give me your skills Tyler plz
Raised in the hood line is so funny to me
I gotta hear your songs now
I write music too
Oops wrong reply
Bro was raised on Clancy Way with all the gangs
I write music too lemme see your shit bro
Fun!
That sounds so weird
Lemme see your shit
Okay
Nahhh my lyrics are TRASH
😭
bro I was the opposite of musical for my whole childhood and then I started practicing and it clicked after a bit, you can do it
like i undestand the idea behind the wasn't raised in the hood line, but come on
it's very out of touch
Same
I can mimic some songs on my keyboard, like the In the End intro and the Jurassic Park theme
can I song trade w you in dms
Every time I try to defend blurryfaces name to someone they go “yeah what about the hood line then” and then all of a sudden I have no way to defend the album
Jurassic park 💪
Don’t trust a song that’s flawless
I love Blurryface and I will ALWAYS defend it
I can’t trust the Line 😭
WHAT IM SAYINT
i got some random lyrics i been writing on my phone and they kinda suck because i'm just trying to get the ideas down
I ain’t got shit recorded because my bandmate and I are in different states right now 😭
Heartbreaking
fairs but you can send lyrics 😭
most of my songs are unrecorded too
but my fav one is done
WAIT that tracks cause he’s turning into a bishop in The Line so of course you can’t trust it 🤓
Oh yeah I can do that
REAL
No matter how "cringe" the song 💔
i just really wish the pilots would just make their songs the way they play them in concerts
I love ruby but… i need to vote forest
like i just want to hear the screams
I listened to Blurry fully during mowing the lawn a few weeks ago. It was PEAK. The transitions 🔥
People who hate blurryface just bc it’s a little cringe at times need to grow up fr
Besides, “you can’t trust me I’m open thenddjwjdjrnwjxjfnwndn lost at sea”
Real
IMOPENAMOMENTBEFOREYOUKNOWITIMLOSTATSEA
I probably missed a line
Yeah you did LMAO
Yup 😂 You missed the SICHEJSICJRJWIFJRHDCHHE
I love HOTY
Blurryface is PEAK even if it's cringe
And I’ve always said this
Shoot Vessel song battle is gonna HARD
To be cringe is to be free
LEVEL UP: You are now level 4!
I love the Entertain my faaaiitthh part
REALLL
i really love the "la la lalala lala laaa"s
‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
And then the drop into the rap section is AMAZING
LEAN WITH IT
ROCK WITH IT
WEJ WE GONNA STOP WITH IT
LYRICS THAT MEAN NOTHING
Bruh I didn’t mean to reply with that
WE WERE GIFTED WITH THOUGHT
IS IT TIME TO MOVE OUR FEET TO AN INTROSPECTIVE BEAT?
TO AN @eager vigil
IT AIN'T THE SPEAKERS THAT BUMB HEARTS
Vessel is going to be so hard omg
ITS THE HEARTS THAT MAKE THE BEaEAT
Real 💔
So is Clancy
LEAN WITH IT ROCK WITH IT
Every song on clsncy needs to become my personality
All of them are hard 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
ahAHahhhhAHahAH
ITS THE HEARTS THAT MAKE THE BEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHAHHAAAATTT
Bro I love tear in my heart
*Vignette transition enters the room
UGH EVERYTHING IS SO PEAK THAT I CANT EVEN PICK A FAV
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeEEEEE
DUN DUN DUN DUN
DUN DUN DUN DUN DUH
That’s what vignette sounds like lmao
JOSH DUN DUN DUN
I love that we’ve collectively moved on from the actual song battle 😂 
I can’t wait for scaled and icy and choker and redecorate to fight it out in the last battle
STAY IN YOUR LANE BOY
WE GO WHERE WE WANT TO
We gotta stay in our lane, boy 💔
THEY THINK THIS THING IS A HIGHWAAAAY
BUT WILL THEU BE ALLVIW TOMMOROEWPWLW
BATTLEBATTLEGAMBLING MAN SOMETHING SLMWTHINF YHHHH
He’s doing it!!
You skipped a few lines but YOU DID IT!!
Bro that verse messed up my head I love it but oh man
I have a stutter, an accent and a lisp I can't do it for the life of me 💔
Here’s my brother and his heads screwed up but that’s alright
Real I just can’t do it lmao
TIME GAINS MOMENTUM IN THE MOMENT WHEN A MOMENTARY SINNING AND WAY PAST AND AFTER
MOMENTS MENDING ME PRETENDING
SENDING ME STRAIGHT TO BENDING ME BUT I BET
MY BAD BEHAVIOR
Heyyy you pulled up the lyrics!!
He does go very fast
COPY AND PASTE CAUGHT ME AND COPY
Heavydirtysoul and kitchen sink are my rapping enemies 💔
I can just barely do hds if the lord allows it some days
My boyfriend says they're so easy and proceeds to do them flawlessly
Maybe your boyfriend is secretly Zac Joseph himself
Lucky ahh doesn't have an accent, a lisp or a stutter 😭
Maybe...
Now that I think about it I've never seen them in the same room....
Suspicious….
Very suspicious...
hopefully not
TIME GAINS MOMENTUM IN THE MOMENT WHEN I’M LIVING IN ‘EM
I’M WINNING A MOMENTARY SINNING A MOMENT PASSING AFTER
A RE-BEGINNING MOMENTS MENDING MEMORIES
PRETENDING ENEMIES ARE FRIEND OF ME
SENDING ME STRAIGHT TO BENDING ME MY BAD BEHAVIOR BUT I BET I COULD HAVE BEEN A BETTER MAN
COPY AND PASTE CAUGHT ME AND COPY BETTER RHYMES BOTHER ME
THE BETTER THE RHYTHM THE BADDER I AM BUT I BET I’L BATTLE WITH ‘EM BATTLE
BETTER I AM
GAMBLING MAN
BETTER BET I AM A GAMBLING MAN
I AM?
that would be problematic
THISSS
That’s true
Yeah he would be like a good 20 years in front of me 💔
icl I hate this verse
I hate it too lol but it’s so good
I’m ☝️ neutral about this verse
I can do part of HDS but NOT kitchen sink at ALL
My phone is at 1 and I have no charger 😭😭
Ye your probably right but it’s iconic
He's exactly 20 years older than me 😭
Buh-bye now👋🏻
Bye local dreamer wit a pen
See ya
Bye dude
Omg I love 🌳
Good luck
I’ll return with a charger eventually 💀
Eventually
ts is gonna be the death of me 💔
It’s such a hard choice
fr
I still haven’t picked
maybe so I just can't like it at all
it is extremely amateur
It’s been like an hour and a half
i chose ruby but like i still love forest but i love ruby more as a personal thing
Fair ig
I love that for you
I think I love forest more as a personal thing
I don't even know which one I like more
Oh hey Gerard way
chose forest anyways
gulp
Gerard jumpscare
no
Ruby is a nice sounding song but I just don’t connect to the lyrics the same as forest
I still don’t know who Ruby even is 😭
It’s about a little girl that went to his church and died
That’s fair I guess
Think you need Christian trauma to get it immediately
Yeah that
Still get what you mean abt forest connecting more (and I think I can say the same)
But ruby is beautiful
If ruby loses I'm leaving the server
Well with that added context I’m definitely gonna appreciate the song more
Ruby is such a good song
I didn't know she died??? I knew it was about a girl with down syndrome I think? Or some kind of autism, can't remember now
Yeah I dunno if that was confirmed or if the "tell our dad I'm sorry" line gives the impression she's in heaven
But I assumed she died bc the tell our dad I’m sorry line I thought was about how she was going to heaven
I'm just asking because I have no clue if she died or not
Jinx lol
Now I’m confused 😭
As far as I know, he's saying he's sorry because he's not as perfect as her
That's why he says she's a queen
And all of the rest
I saw it as a bit of both
But hey that’s the magic of twenty one pilots songs, up for interpretation
Music in general, up to a certain point but yeah
please don't make it slowtown v glowing eyes next round 🙏
Twenty One Pilots performing their new song "Ruby" Live at New Albany High School on 7-8-11. This was twenty one pilots CD Release Show which took place in New Albany, Ohio. Before the start of ruby Tyler Joseph had me rollin at the 1:00 mark he had mentioned it was their last song of the night but really it wasn't because they were gonna go off...
I found this
He explains the meaning at the beginning
Ayeeee
Her parents being there ❤️ tyler is the sweetest, imagine somebody wrote a song about your kid and invited you to there show like whatttt
That’s what I was thinking
That is so sweet
as a songwriter one of the hardest things on this earth has to be showing someone the song you wrote about them or their loved ones
so not only is that very sweet it's very brave ngl
Wait I thought I already watched it but looks like I haven't, I didn't know he did that omfg
He is such a good egg
I wrote a song for my great-grandmother and it got played at her 80th birthday last year, I had to leave the room it was too much 😭 😭
Awwww
Yeah I can't even imagine
I’ve been practicing playing legend so I can play it on the piano for my grandma next anniversary of my grandpas death
Love Tyler for that
And the lyrics make more sense now
I still vote forest though
The bridge goes so incredibly hard
The bridge in forest might be my favorite thing they’ve ever written
