Man I love this song and when they played it live they prefaced it with “people don’t seem to like this song as much so you gotta clap like it’s your favorite at the end” and I wish they knew how much we actually loved it cause I sure as fuck wasn’t just clapping cause they asked me to.
I was about to pass out but PUP decided to drop a bop so
It's in 12/8 with some measures of the verse and chorus in 11/8. The intro is all 11/8 and the way you count it from the very beginning is 1 2 3, 1 2 3, 1 2 3, 1 2, 1 2 3, 1 2 3, 1 2 3, 1 2 etc up until the verse which is 1 measure of 11/8 followed by 3 measures of 12/8. Then it repeats that same pattern one more time, but then the chorus is one measure of 12/8, then one measure of 11/8, then back to 12 for two more measures. It changes it up a few more times, but if you're trying to count songs like this, the best way is to break the beats into groups of 2 and 3
The rhythms in this song are so crazy I had to get my professional musician friend to explain it. Apparently the bridge is in 11/8 time and the syncopations in the chorus make it sound like the time signature changes when it doesn't. Well done!
You got to feel it dude. You can't go off a metronome, its sloppy punk shit brought up a level.
I've been listening to it a bunch of times and it really sounds like the second measure of the chorus is in 11/8. I think they just hold the last note of that measure a tiny bit longer.
@gifgoldblum7940 Syncopation is when a note is on the off-beat rather than on the beat itself!
You guy came here needing a capo, you must listen to american football?
I feel like this song in particular isn't getting enough attention from this album
To be fair this album is full of bangers, its hard to look at all of them
I feel tha tnn way about Scorpion
That's easily my favorite song of all time I listen to it around 5 times a day
Usually the live one where hes wearing the red flannel
LOVE the outro there the most
This one has an absolute killer hook
That earworm in the chorus is bloody amazing. PUP thank you for your vocals, guitars, and beats guys!
It's only a game
I hadn't thought about it in years
Repeated her name
Three times into the mirror
The candles went out
And you started to laugh
I heard a sound in the attic
But you don't believe in all of that
Are you real or fake?
Are you alive, am I awake?
This must be some kinda mistake
A trick of the eyes, or the drugs that I'm taking
Walked through the door
With some gasoline in a can
Put some on the floor
In the shape of a pentagram
And I lit a match
As we stood in a circle
Flames shooting up to the sky
Like some vision of hell
Satan send me a signal
There's blood in the sink
There's blood on the windows
I need a drink
I need to, I need to, I need to know
Are you real or fake?
Are you alive, am I awake?
This must be some kinda mistake
A trick of the eyes or the drugs that I'm taking
Are you real or fake?
Do you prefer Ashley or Mary Kate?
And who let you outta your grave
Can anyone see this or am I just tripping?

the lyrical connection between bloody mary and mary kate and ashley makes little sense to me but i fucking love it. so goddamned clever.
When you hear that opening riff, and your like, yup, thats PUP.
I saw Pup live and they said they don’t know how to play this song lol. They decided to try anyways and I could hear they weren’t together for the first 30 seconds. It was still awesome though.
Listen to Steve’s lead guitar part from 2:12 to the end. Makes the ending of this song really soar compare to the other choruses. Absolutely one of his best parts.
best song pup has ever written
I’ve heard nothing bad from this album. Or any PUP album at that...
Lmao I misread this as I've never heard anything this bad and I was about to attempt to verbally beat the shit out of you
I mean they hate some of their songs but that's mostly because of their pessimism
There no way Mary kate and Ashley dont hear this soon
Hopefully they remember their mystery Series they did when they were little. :)
@@ccedfagabc god, I haven't thought about that in at least a decade and a half.
There’s always that one song on every pup album that will give me goosebumps every time I listen to it.
20 years ago, when I was 8, I loved the Mary Kate & Ashley mystery series. This song is awesome.
THREE TIMES INTO THE MIRROR
this song has been my earworm for the last week or so (and it ain't the first time to be)
Oh my gosh, I've been trying to find this song for ages 😂. I'm so glad I found it. Love it.
Pethony Puptano brought me here...
Beautiful in the first seconds already
can you repeat your fall canadian tour because that was the last time i truly felt happy #thankscovid
I love it, amazing as always

"Are you real or fake?
Do you prefer Asuka or Ayanami Rei?"
Is that a little bit of 11/8 I hear?
uhhhh... I just caught some drool.
I fucking love PUP
RIP Heath.......

MMM THATS PRETTY GOOD 😏
I'm a witch and this song is hilarious
FUCK YES
So. Fucking. Good.
Some bozos must've tripped real bad and hit the dislike button....
They were moshing too hard to tell which button was which. Happens to the best of us
Oxford comma says no?
whos here from hlvrai lol
woah does anyone have a link or know what it's called? I'd really love to see it.
Love them both but Ashley, sorry MK.
:)
Gotta end my life some more huh
First Tia and Tamera and now this. What’s next? A song named after the Sprouse twins or something lmao?
When Mary Kate and Ashley were little, they did a mystery series (I.E. the adventures of Mary Kate and Ashley: The Case of Thorn Mansion). I assume this is sort of an ode to that.
What is the meaning of this song?

this reminds me so much of weezer
Those was an interview with PUP shortly after this album released in which they stated that they take a lot of inspiration from earlier pop punk bands like Weezer.
i thought it was someone send me a signal but ok
FAVE OFF THE ALBUM
soy el segundo

First haha
0:20 second mark, the lyric is "repeated her name/three times into the mirror" and as that's said, the drummer hits his snare three times quickly. Pretty clever stuff.
