No Picture Brandon Average	#6 by Brandon Weathers at Sep 23, 1984 at 12:28 AM EST
	Hate to break it to you JohnnyFender, but yellowcard signed with Capitol Records earlier this year, a big record label, meaning that they will almost surely be on the radio when their next full length is released.

No Picture Pablo Rhythm Player	#7 by Pablo Muñiz at Oct 28, 1987 at 12:50 PM EST
	I love this song so much! Ryan's voice sounds so good in this song. I am totally for the verse "I slip another smile in your pocket". Wut gr8 lyrics these are but the only thing is they are kinda messed up some. OMG! I just totally love this song so much! I can't wait till I get the EP! Yellowcard is such a gr8 band! They really know how to write and produce gr8 music! Yellowcard is by fare my all time favorite band eva. They are just so good! I do agree with lobstergirl also it also reminds me of that verse from Something of Value. Yellowcard is awesome and I totally love this song!:) ~aMbEr*
