The fact that i’m choosing heathens rn feels wrong but it’s backed up by one of my favorite movies
heathens sweep 
Heathens
Roblox hands up hands up sway sway sway
I don't really care for either of these, but I like Heathens more
omg I remember when heathens came out
Heathens.
all my friends are eatin steak n snow
i don't care much for the doubt demo so 😭
My mom's cat says Heathens/silly
doubt demo is so overhyped
The doubt demo genuinely sucks ass if it gets through I will be in disgust
No
Heathens isn’t my favorite tbh 😭
Heathens aint even that great either but come on
Heathens. I play drums, my brother plays bass, together we sound… good enough!
Woaaah the hate for the doubt demo is crazy
heathens beats both versions of doubt tbh
i WILL get flanked for this but i really don't see the hype with doubt demo
why does everyone hate doubt demo😭
If it was heathens/trees id say that but doubt demo sweeps regular heathens
no
Its purposefully unfinished and the autotune is awful
The hate for both of these is crazy
I love the original Doubt more but demo is chill
Heathens still better tho
doubt > doubt demo FOR LIFEEEE but omg heathens is sweeping i have to defend it’s honor 💔💔
Definitely heathens cause nostalgia points
Actually wait I like heathens better wait no doubt demo wait AAAHHGGHHH
there’s no gif for roblox hands up hands up
Doubt demo is ass
Heathens 
doubt is my #2 off blurryface
But it’s neat
ykw valid
doubt demo is tied with not today in rating
Calm, my friend. Heathens is better, we know
heathens 100%
Can people stop hating like bruh
I am calm bum
It’s just a bad song
It does not sound good
Doubt demo is EASILY better than the OG but heathens is EASILY better than doubt demo
heathens 100% for losing yes
🤷♂️
i don't know about that...
Doubt demo is so bad
y'all have some insane takes
Ok kinton💀
so much doubt hate omg 😔😔 (both versions)
I’ll just say my truth
Fuck y’all
Go home bro
ok mr bounce man over pet cheetah
I want to like the doubt demo, but I don't even like the OG one that much, but there is a sound in the background of the demo that irritates me sesnory wise
Bounce man easily over pet cheetah
ONE DAY a mod has to see this n do smth right 🥀🥀🥀
i had this for weeks 😭
Doubt (Demo) is the worst song the boys have ever released; mainly due to the fact that its literally unfinished and the autotune is god awful
(RAB doesn’t count as officially released)
most obvious ragebait ever dawg
i just added the border yesterday
Some people are so silly
-# hmm wonder who did that
ahem ahem
guys it's not heathens because tøpxmm heathens is better than normal heathens ⚠️‼️
anyways heathens even tho i kinda dont like both of these
my thing is, I don’t listen to heathens nor doubt demo very often
heathens easy
Fr tho when TOP announced doubt demo I was not excited one bit cause I thought the snippet from the vessel livestream was also ass but when I heard it I thought it was SUCH an improvement. All I’ll say, THANK YOU PAUL MEANY

Im honestly kinda indifferent on both of these
When I listen to Heathens, it makes me think I should be in a Hot Topic.
Heathens
Studio heathens is kinda the worst version of that song anyways
I think you just say these things on purpose 😔
heathens >>>
Brother doesn't get the silly autotune tyler 🥀
The autotune was in such bad taste on OG but I love when he fully embraced it on doubt demo
but like OG Hot Topic when they were kind of spooky and my dad would give me money and not go in with me lol
Sorry but it embarrasses me when I have to tell people TØP is the band that made heathens so I have to go w/ doubt 💔💔😭
Heathens is my fav instrumental it’s literally perfect
I used to not care so much for Heathens, but then I have a few friendships that the lyrics described well so now I relate
You can just talk about stressed out it’s better than heathens anyway
I mean he was clearly experimenting with shit and I think it has its charm!!
i love heathens
Doubt demo just came on my playlist, about to enjoy it
Lovely might have been too autotuned but not the same can all be said for RAB n shit
HEATHENS RAHHHHH
Majority of the time I end up having to say heathens anyway 💔
heathens infinitely better than doubt demo
That sucks
Agreed
hating on heathens cause it's popular
Highly agree but partially because doubt (demo) is genuinely bad
oh god
I like Heathens Live
both these are ass im so 😭
roblox...hands up hands up...sway sway sway
I dont hate heathens at all its just not as good as their album work lmao
me watching everyone yap like im the client observing a fish tank in a nail salon
Heathens cause genuinely can't stand doubt demo, it sounds terrible (in my opinion, everyone can like what they like)
FR THO!!! Like if y’all can’t come up with a real reason to dislike heathens why are you in the battle chat
YESSS
I just don’t think heathens is their best song 
Chat hating so much on these songs 😭
i think the lyrics are bad 
this is so specific 😭
heathens is a good song some of y'all just hate the movie it's associated with
God forbid people just dont like a song as much as others 
ur welcome
Also, Doubt is an alt version of an album song...is it really a single?
But y’all hating on it just cause it’s popular and not focusing on the song itself
im not someone who likes the doubt demo at all
I dont hate it ❓
That’s too bad lowk. I am
usually how it goes
be competing out here
shrug
yea i think its just overplayed, still a good song but i dont ever listen to it cuz 2017/2018 i listened to it enough
I like both of them both so much but I'm voting Heathens only because I'm not a huge fan of auto-tune 
I bet that’s true I’m just saying this for everyone who does
I know Heathens is a single, but fits in with BF lol
Heathens is well produced, doubt demo just feels more authentic iykwim
yea, i have a fine line of autotune tolerance
both these songs are fucking goated i fear i just fw doubt more
doubt is literally a demo its not gonna sound as good as their fully finished songs
likewise lol
Spotify streams for comparison 💀
Obvs this is not really comparable with how recent doubt demo was released but anywayyyy...
doubt demo isn't THAT bad but compared to my glorious queen album version doubt it's NOTHING.
I would listen to doubt demo over RAB Trees
Real
The OG doubt sounds so much worse tho. All I’ll say, keep Ricky Reed AWAY FROM TOP
the Tribute version of doubt? 🔥
Heathens is one of those songs I never really listen to on my own but when it’s played live I lose my mind (in the good way)
I love heathens
Despite what I’ve said Heathens live ver is so gorgeous though,, 
This is like Lovely to me. I adore the song but I like the Vessel remake better because there's no auto-tune
heathens is amazing i'll take it over doubt demo any day
I won't turn heathens on myself, but I don't skip it either
genuinely I HATE doubt demo
I love the og doubt vs doubt demo, doubt demo is just crinkly auto tune (I'm not a big fan of auto tune unless used in doses like the contract)
Heathens live is 100% better
I love the Vessel version of Lovely fr the RAB version is BOTTOM 5 TOP
Doubt was never a fave of mine off Blurryface so when the demo started getting big I just felt “meh” about it. Like I was happy for the boys but I don’t have much of a stake in it
i feel like the doubt demo is great in the backing track, like, miles better than the original, but the autotune outside of the chorus HURTS me
i need someone to
Now give me Royal and the Serpents version of Doubt
parse it
Let's be real Doubt Demo is not that good
just replace the autotune in the parts it doesnt belong
and its better than heathens
The line is gonna win the singles battle anyway so do it really matter

neither are my favorite im tempted to say doubt demo because i like the original
I actually really enjoy the music in Heathens like it isn't a bad song
I fear I personally think it should be LOC but yeah I think you’re right
I'm not the craziest Heathens fan but it feels like a complete package. I can't really listen to the Doubt Demo without thinking that it needs more time in the oven or that it's inferior to the OG
The Line with Level of Concern runner up
I love The Line but I genuinely hope Level of Concern wins 😭
I would be okay with those two flipped, too
I fear the recency bias will win out
I loved the line so much I made characters inspired by it 😭
Tbh, I listen more heathens than doubt demo.
But the line or level of concern is going to win so I'm fine with any of the two songs
fr its banger
I think both of them are very good songs
Ikrrrrr
The Line goes crazy but LoC has my heart 
Josh always does so well on the drums man 😭
You know what LoC live from outside is peak
Real
Level of Concern made me giggle when I heard the "would you be my little quarentine" part since it was like...within a month of lockdown i think
If it was the outside version vs the line, it would be a different story
doubt sweep
My favorite version of Heathens is the one mashup they did with Car Radio
OMG YES
and the Heathens/Trees mashup
"Try to think"
Idk which one I like better.
REAL
That's my favorite version of heathens and trees both
Heathens Next Semester 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I think I like both mashups equally, it just depends on what tempo I'm wanting to hear
Honestly for me it depends on my mood haha
HEATHENS/NEXT SEMESTER TOO it scratches my brain in a good way
Hearing it live was like heaven
obv heathens
I wanna hear it live one day 🙏🙏
lmao doubt demo atw
I think the common factor in the live streams is Heathens is slowed down
I'm relistening the Car Radio/Heathens and the Car Radio parts are blowing my mind lol
if we’re talking heathens/trees then heck yeah but that sentimental aspect isn’t even a part of the song itself so i’m going doubt
DONT FORGET A BOU BOU BOU BOU BOU ME
ALSO
OLDIES STATION WON IM LITERALLY SO HAPPY OMGOAKSHFKLAOWJD
skip
this
like
i love heathens/ trees it is SO beautiful but normal heathens.. it’s overplayed and generally not as good as doubt
heathens live is good and funky but again idk doubt still sweeps even live like
have you heard heathens /trees??? (rq)
ROMANIAAAAAAA
doubt plz
recent release will be the only reason doubt wins if it does
Heathens is lowk just better
Doubt also eventually made it to a full album
A very different version to the demo though!
It is a good song.
It was the very very first song that I've listened of the band back on 2017.
And years later, and begin a fan of the band, I still loving the song
SAME
Heathens sweep
Heathens
I don't listen to Heathens a lot and I have a love hate relationship with it, but its way better than the doubt demo in my opinion 😭
Doubt demo is just mid imo
i havent listened to it
💔💔💔💔
Doubt demo for the win
doubt demo is a bit forgettable but heathens is maybe their worst song so
heathens
heathens isnt bad at all its just kinda corny and it was so so so overplayed
heathens is one of the better live performances
yeah doubt demo was just meh for me
the autotune isnt bad but i dont like the way the song is structured
voted heathens out of nostalgic bias 💔
No duh it won. .it's the Clique's song
I prefer the studio version
this is like choosing between wanting to be mauled to death by wolves or lions
Real
there is no winning
I love doubt but omg I actually respectfully hate the demo
Also, Oldies won the Clancy battle 🥺💙
I like Heathens
i think the line is going to win the whole thing
I will give my vote to tje demo for this one
Alright, I respect your opinion. I chose Heathens
dont count out time to say goodbye
Heathens sucks
heathens goes hard and is a bop
if u dont like it cus its overplayed you are literally gaslighting yourself 🙏
heathens is such a banger
all my friends are eating steak and snow
i hate heathens so anything is gonna be better than it
bro why’d you gotta make it hard
lowk i like heathens because of nostalgia but as a song its like the only tøp songs i dont fully like
Doubt Demo is so underrated oml
oh this is like a really interesting battle, im go heathens
i like doubt demo but i think i prefer heathens as a single
lowki dont like heathens, i like other versions of heathens but not this one (that bass is crazy tho) the overplaying got to me 💔☹️
heathens. the backing vocals. yes
Doubt demo is overhated. I hate the OG doubt but I like the demo for sure
i like the demo instrumentals
Yeah facts
yeah same
No more autotuned cats in the demo
Eh when I hear the original vocals I completely realize why Tyler wanted to use autotune so much
doubt demo is better to me maybe js cos like, ik i wont hear it a gazillion more times lmaoo
but putting that aside, i do just like doubt demo more tbh
i would put it on over heathens
also i’m pretty sure the demo we got had re-recorded vocals. it sounds different than the one on vessel livestream
tyler shows us a never heard before demo version of Doubt

the doubt demo only got 6m views on youtube. i really thought it was gonna blow up
can you just sybau-bau-bau-bau-bau plz
can you just sybau-bau-bau-bau-bau plz
when i am around you
i want you to sybau, dude
no
no
anyway, voting doubt demo
hot take. after getting back into tøp i think heathens is so far down on my ranking of their songs that this isnt even a competition for me
i was thinking about this the other day. i almost wish they had kept the old vocals, but we take what we can get lol
Fuck this is hard but Heathens is such a classic
my history with heathens is too strong
I think Doubt (demo) is gonna get a little bit of recency bias boost. Plus, Heathens is probably overplayed for a lot of people.. so this could be close?
If you get past both of those things, I think Heathens is overall the better song.
Very good tracks
doubt demo gonna win by recency, yes!
Heathens is definitely overplayed. I still hear it on the radio occasionally. But hey I won’t complain too much since that means tøp gets to be on the radio
I've always loved both so so much, when I heard the original Doubt I fell in love with how it made me feel. So many emotions in one song, and Demo made me fall in love 1000× more
I do too, but I also prefer the demo version to Heathens
One of my two favorite songs from them
HMO... I actually particularly don't like either but I like doubt WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY more
this
neither is great
but heathens is much worse
so the vote is easy
If I could double upvote this I would
I'll do it for you
YAYY
It's so weird to see people say they hate heathens, I've only ever seen how popular it is, I personally like it but it's not my favorite
PSA I did not upvote my own message, I did it on the behalf of a second party
Yeah it's definitely popular but I just don't like the sound of it lol
I listened to it recently (as someone who did not experience the timeframe in which it was overplayed, it was my first time actually giving it a shot) and I really disliked it. I had a lot of reasons but it was just very basic in every way to me
there's nothing interesting happening lyrically or melodically
it's just there
the only thing Heathens has ever been good for is transitioning into Next Semester
I was LITTLE (5-6) when it started playing but I still remember my mum putting it on a CD so we can play it in the car
I remember always having a hatred for it 💔
your mom was a tøp fan before you?
My mom hated Heathens but I loved it and made her turn it up every time it played, same with Ride and Stressed Out, it just became one of the three favorites that I could listen to from TØP back then
My mums been around when self titled released lol
My first song I ever heard was Johnny boy lol (as my mum recalls)
That's genuinely so cool lol
She's not a good person but she did give me a good music taste lmao
It feels like tøp hasn't been around for long enough to be that multigenerational but it's very cool to hear stories like that
WHAT
WHAT
Both are pure fire
typa shit that make you feel gangsta
heathens is just entirely uninteresting in every facet of its being
Real, my mum recalls me absolutely BANGING to semi automatic and all of blurry when it was on the radio
Song is insanely well produced, catchy and solid pop song with a dark and brooding theme
it's not that it's bad, I just feel nothing whatsoever listening to it
which is arguably worse than bad
Formidable is the best Jenna song 😭 😭
I get a lot of enjoyment out of it, when i first heard it back in 2017 it was so refreshing
they're both so bad
i like both 😢
heathens is the first song i heard from them, my friend showed it to me, and i really like it
i like doubt demo more than the blurryface version (even though both are great)
maybe heathens, but idk
I can definitely imagine heathens being an interesting listen after Blurryface and Vessel being all they really had out; cause it's a different vibe. But as someone who only learned about the pilots in 2021, it just feels very derivative of the sound much better done throughout Trench
heathens solos
It's less about the band, the song transcends the band
That sound is so fuckin cool
quan deca
representing the great nation of Bulgaria
My own first reaction was leaning towards Doubt (demo), but once I thought about it, I loved Heathens when it first came out. It’s only now that it’s been all over the radio and everywhere else forever that I feel any negativity toward it.
its so overplayed. i just fell out of love wiht ride after hearing it 100 times
yeah i think im gonna go heathens (sorry)
legit only reason i voted for it is because i’m nostalgic for it 😭
Roblox hands up Hands up! Sway sway sway! 🗣🔥‼️
Erm Doubt demo goes hard guys 🔥
hot take but doubt demo is pretty dookie
the original doubt is LEAGUES better
it’s a skip 90% of the time
i like the autotune on the chorus but when it goes to every part of the song i’m just like “blerugh”
no i agree
i couldn't get through very long
the one perk of being me is that i can listen to a song a kajillion times and still not get tired of it. even though heathens is SUPER mid, i'm gonna go with that one 😭😭😭😭
HOW DID YOU GET TRASH
(its the firebreather role icon)
Special place in my heart for Heathens, it made me discover TØP (thanks to my guitar teacher who taught me how to play the song) 
I love Time To Say Goodbye. It's so great and sad at the same time
The only reason why I don't like it is because of the autotune, but I think the studio version is great
ik its a fan favorite, im gonna have trouble choosing between that and The Line
Yeah, true!! The Line and TTSG are just so 💙💙💙
this is too hard i love the doubt demo for the echo so much but heathens beat is so coooolll 
roblox hands up hands up‼️
i ♥️ doubt demo sm 
i love doubt demo sm but i hate that everybody uses this song to say they like tøp 😭
One of the biggest hit songs of the late 2010s vs a demo that was unreleased for a decade that came out without warning early this year-
I’m one of the biggest doubt fans so I obviously voted for it tho tf
doubt demo , all the way
Yesssssssss exactlyyyyyyyyy
wait are people saying the demo is better than the original
who is saying that 💀
I fear ill have to go with doubt demo
Heathens bc the BF Doubt is better imo
Heathens SWEEP
heathers doubt demo not that good
doubt demo is doubt but lyrics switched around and instrumentals different
a lot of ppl (me 😭) think that!!! i think it's just because it sounds aged and its nostalgic but new/fresh at the same time
Yesss, someone who shares the same opinion as me!! 😇
Geez idk
Flip a coin
Doubt demo bro
I love the og
And heathens carries nostalgia
But the demo got me back into BF as a whole and I can't forget that
heathens I think
Doubt demo is so fire but Heathens is just iconic
Battle of B-tier songs
heathens is c at best
Hot take, I don't like the doubt demo. The original is so much better
i agree
but then everyone is like "doubt demo is so good it's so much better than the og!!!" and im sitting there like "wtf do you mean are we listening to the same song"
Why do people put palestine flag
Yeah
i hope the line wins single battles overall
it probably will
🇵🇸
I respect people's opinions, but yeah, I feel like I can't relate to the people who like the demo version
I think it's because they either support Palestine or are from there
I like doubt demo more than regular doubt except for the fact its missing the chant at the end
By spreading the message everywhere, it enters the public consciousness.
I think doubt demo is a 7/10, but I absolutely despise the original, even before the demo came out
And when the demo came out I REJOICED! WE FINALLY GOT A GOOD VERSION OF DOUBT
Heathens solos doubt demo tho
doubt for me is a 7/10
doubt demo is like a 3/10
Reverse that and bring OG to 2
Heathens dude
Doubt demo solos the original
Nooooo...............
Its ok we can agree to disagree on this
I just dont fw the autotune
The demo doesn’t have autotuned cats
The cats are the best part!
The autotuned vocals at least are in good taste on the demo
This has to be lying
The cats are by far one of the most cringe things TOP has done
Dude cringe is a social construct invented to make you never have fun ever. Those cats are so fun
The cats are annoying asf. Saturday is fun. OG doubt is ass
LEVEL UP: You are now level 7!
Made it my pfp the day the listening parties were announced
My one wish is to hold my pfp in my hands within a month
Omg manifesting
Let’s hope so
doubt demo clears hard
DID HEATHENS WIN
NO

as it should
YESSS
How was this close
Not even
949 of you are crazy
all my friends are eating steak and snow
Doubt demo is ass
voted for it bc heathens is literally ass
ass vs diarrhea
i voted for heathens but i love doubt demo sm :( sad to see it go
The fact that this was actually close scares me
