  • An Innocent Man… because I identified with it a lot as a kid.

Hey hello I’m sorry for bothering you but I really need to speak to someone about this. I’ve felt trapped bottling up this confession and need to tell someone and as tumblr is usually a place open to people of all opinions and preferences I figured this is as good a place as any. ‘When You Were Young’ is a better song than ‘Mr. Brightside’.

I’m going to play the middle and say Mr. Brightside is an objectively better song, but I prefer When We Were Young.
