No Picture ~Ivy Loves Shav Rhythm Player	#1 by ~Ivy Loves Shavo~ at Sep 29, 2007 at 3:44 AM EST
	I love this song. It's one of the better ones off the album.

No Picture john Average	#2 by john at Sep 30, 2007 at 1:10 AM EST
	I think it's about consumer culture. It's very blur/pulp. My favourite on the album, followed by OMG.

No Picture Taylor Lead Player	#3 by Taylor Dutton at Oct 7, 2007 at 1:59 PM EST
	Ahhh I love this song. My sister has their album and me and her are obsessed. I've had this song stuck in my head for aout 4 days now! Lol, it's all good though. Yeah I think it's saying "This is the modern way" and today everyone is just complete fakes, it's all about acting like someone else to get what you want. Good on ya, Kaiser Chiefs:D

No Picture RoBsN Average	#4 by RoBsN Stalder at Oct 11, 2007 at 9:08 PM EST
	Yeah i agree! "this is the modern way, faking it everyday" So true! There are so many people out there who act a certain way and like certain things just coz its "cool" rather than just be themselves.

No Picture Jordan Wanna Be	#5 by Jordan Ivory-Marcotte at Oct 15, 2007 at 6:12 PM EST
	Best song on the album, with IPAR close second, this song is special because it's like nothing else i've heard in their genre, which is usually crap. I think that he's just trying to tell his fans/friends that he won't change, that he's "faking it everyday" for the camera's and "taking them as they come" as in big interviews. Then again the great thing about great lyrics is that they mean different things to different people.
