The song version of a straight to DVD Disney sequel nobody wanted and done without the involvement of anyone who made the original great.

I don't particularly care for this cover, but if people are asking why they aren't listing things in chronological order, it IS a song after all and they're trying to rhyme the lyrics.

Also, the lines about Michael Jordan,,Jordan became a star long before 1989! The Bulls didnt get a title until the 90s mind you, but it's not like he was some star who came out of the woodwork. I dont even watch sports but I know that.

the biggest issue is there's just such a wide gap of stuff that happened that how do you decide what gets in and what gets left out.
Politically, pop culturally, etc.
not to mention even Billy Joel doesn't really like the original as he thinks it's a clunky mess and not really a song that works...

Holy shit. It's absolutely hilarious and mystifying that a band as successful as FOB decided to release that. I'm going to need a Netflix feature on the making of this.
ISIS/Lebron James/Shinzo Abe blown away/Meghan Markle/George Flord/Burj Khalifa/Metroid... is an absolutely bonkers line.

We all need to come to an understanding that Fall Out Boy has always and will always suck. Their "good" songs are absolutely nothing and their reinvention of themselves over the past decade has been one gigantic mess. I'd rather listen to Nickelback than Fall Out Boy any day of the week.

Since all of them are straight edge, they can't blame this on drugs.

WWF Superstars flowed better www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPECdI0xDZQThan whatever it is Radioactive Man's sidekick sang. Wasn't that good. Let's not even start with their other brilliant cover song: Since all of them are straight edge, they can't blame this on drugs. They can blame it on....Coke? Coca Cola that is.

I got as far as the start of the second verse. I was already miffed that it wasn’t in any specific order, and decided not to annoy myself further.
‘Alright lads, we’ve got 34 years to cover. Try and find things that rhyme and whack ‘em in there. Nah, don’t worry about any order, no one will notice....’

This song is such a f***ing abortion and if we didn't have "Toxic Gossip Train" the very same week would be ripped on much more as the worst song of the year. I don't particularly care for this cover, but if people are asking why they aren't listing things in chronological order, it IS a song after all and they're trying to rhyme the lyrics. Because: 1) The original being in chronological order was part of what made it so impressive and distinct. 2) All these Fallout Boy rhymes f***ing sucks. Super forced like "Bobbit, John" into "Pokemon."
