No Picture camilo Average	#1 by camilo velasquez at Apr 27, 2006 at 10:03 AM EST
	haha i'd say so ... "let's get fucked up and die" is pretty much all over that topic. not necessarily alcoholism i'd say, more of just using alcohol as a crutch. he hates that he drinks, but drinks cause life sucks sometimes. totally relatable.

No Picture GRIM Professional	#2 by GRIM at Jun 8, 2006 at 10:30 PM EST
	i think it goes further than just wanting people to like his record. it's about having felt insecure for a really long time and waking up one day and wanting to like yourself. he doesn't care if people don't like him, it's only important if he feels attractive.

No Picture floyd Lead Player	#3 by floyd lloyd at Jul 10, 2006 at 9:23 AM EST
	My favorite song. It's amazing

No Picture nathan Average	#4 by nathan skidmore at Jul 30, 2006 at 5:50 PM EST
	i loveeee this song. its really cool how its really short. and i also love how the guy says "i like you" i didnt hear it til i was listening to it in my headphones. and then i heard it. and i LOVED it.

No Picture chris Average	#5 by chris ovari at Sep 18, 2006 at 12:56 AM EST
	I think it comes off as he's sick of how things have been going so shitty for him but he doesn't want change cause he's afraid of change. he just wants things to get better and he wants to feel confident and "attractive today" on the inside if not the outside. and does anyone else see the lines in many of their songs that seem to pertain to a little bit of alcoholism or is that just me?

No Picture Hey Retard Wanna Be	#6 by Hey Retard at Nov 5, 2006 at 9:14 AM EST
	this song is currently my "anthem". It is scarily true to whats been happening lately in my life. Excellent song.

No Picture Joshua Wanna Be	#7 by Joshua graham at Mar 7, 2007 at 7:51 PM EST
	The first time I heard this song I thought it was about when you're sick and you're just like "Ahh! I want to feel better and pretty agian." I know that's what it's like for me when I'm sick and it's no fun...Another good song from MCS

No Picture anthony Average	#8 by anthony clark at Mar 11, 2007 at 6:40 AM EST
	yep I'd say drinking is a big part in a lot of their songs as well as anti depressents, also the 'breaking point' is a common theme, which is why I love them, because I'm at the breaking point all the time. Their songs are sarcastic, witty, painfuly honest, and upbeat. They're anthems for my every day life, and when I'm feeling like I'm going to crash, or I have, I can just break out into song and start rocking out, and I know I'm not alone, that's why I love MCS. They make me happy. I listen to this song just about every morning, something is always screwy, whether its relationships, grades, or my hair, and this just makes me smile. I always say or mouth 'I like you' when that comes on, it just makes everything seem so much better.

No Picture Chris Rhythm Player	#9 by Chris Pray at May 11, 2007 at 11:37 PM EST
	"For the first time in my life, I just want to feel attractive today." I feel like this everyday of my life.

No Picture Josh Average	#10 by Josh Braun at May 20, 2007 at 4:47 AM EST
	sometimes you just get frustrated and nothing goes right and you just really want to feel "attractive today" ya know

No Picture mike Average	#11 by mike duncan at Jun 27, 2007 at 5:50 AM EST
	it's 'wishing i'd been better designed'

No Picture Razor wrist Lead Player	#12 by Razor wrist at Jul 19, 2007 at 7:47 AM EST
	This is probably one of my top favorite songs on the new album. Its really short, but well done.

No Picture Robyn Average	#13 by Robyn Paul at Jul 22, 2007 at 1:02 PM EST
	in this song the "i like you" is justin pierre, the singer. and this song is about fitting in and wanting to like yourself.

No Picture Bassdude Average	#14 by Bassdude at Oct 6, 2007 at 3:26 PM EST
	this song is short. feels weird listening to it since its so short heh..
