20. Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown on a Bad Bet (Folie à Deux, 2008)
“This song is very powerful and really great! This songs proves Patricks awesome singing skills on so many levels. His singing can go from high to low which has him hitting those beautiful notes, setting an amazing impact on the entire song. The music all together has a really strong melody, bringing you in and filling you up with all these emotions. Emotions of how beautiful and fantastic this song is. The first time I listened to this song, it sucked me in and took forever to get that song out of my head. But I loved it! It should have been top ten, honestly, because its too perfect!”
19. Our Lawyer Made Us Change the Name of This Song So We Wouldn’t Get Sued (From Under the Cork Tree, 2005)

17. Young Volcanoes (Save Rock and Roll, 2013)

16. The TakeOver, the Break’s Over (Infinity on High, 2007)
“I love this song. It sounds amazing and catchy. And although, the music video was rather enjoyable in a humorous way. The beat is great and so catchy, the song really gets stuck in your head, I love it. Easily one of the best fall out boy songs.”
15. Jet Pack Blues (American Beauty/American Psycho, 2015)
“The pure emotion conveyed through this song is just heart-stopping. I felt everything the subject felt and how they questioned whether or not they actually loved a past romantic interest while simultaneously mourning her loss. I still get chills whenever I hear this song.”
14. Save Rock and Roll (Save Rock and Roll, 2013)
“The greatest band in the world managed to get someone who was knighted by a queen to sing in their song and made one of the greatest songs I’ve ever heard, it was an instant classic that brought back what rock and roll was all about.”
13. I’m Like a Lawyer with the Way I’m Always Trying to Get You Off (Me & You) (Infinity On High, 2007)
“One of the classics that get me every time. Makes me feel something when I hear it, unlike some of their new music. Though their new music is great, I don’t feel anything that makes me think. This song is beautiful and I love it!”
12. Alone Together (Save Rock and Roll, 2013)
“This is my absolute favorite song. I can listen to it for hours and not get tired of it. It sounds amazing and has an important message in it if you listen to the lyrics. The lyrics are fantastic, all the chorus are brilliant, and the last part always makes me cry. All the rhythms sound great.”
11. A Little Less Sixteen Candles, a Little More Touch Me (From Under the Cork Tree, 2005)
“This song is one of the best, I think it should be in the top ten. Not to mention the instrumentals in this song are amazing, along with an amusing video to top it all off! Great piece of musical art”
10. What a Catch, Donnie (Folie à Deux, 2008)
“This is probably the most heart-felt, beautifully written, sung and played Fall out Boy song out there. It still has their feel to it, and their witty lyrics on top of that. I almost died during the ending when they made a tribute to all their past hits. If FOB had just stopped their career after this song, It wouldn’t even be so bad.”
9. Grand Theft Autumn/Where Is Your Boy (Take This to Your Grave, 2003)
“People are always in a rush to get better. But do they ever like what was the best in the old days? no, they say that is old so I’m just going to listen to pop! pop is just people that can sing taking the credit of the band. There are reasons the classics are appreciated by the people that remember past present and future”
8. I Don’t Care (Folie à Deux, 2008)
“Such a great song! Brilliant riff with a driving rhythm, great lyrics and lyrical style, and the rest of the gang on backing vocals do themselves proud.”
7. Centuries (Centuries, 2014)
“I have to agree this is a great song, but it isn’t their true style of music that got them to where they are. They lost many fans, but nevertheless, they are gathering a new generation of a young fanbase looking for innovation. Producing the music they produced in the 2000’s would not get them anywhere.”

6. This Ain’t a Scene, It’s An Arms Race (Infinity on High, 2007)
“Awesome beat. I wasn’t overly impressed with other Fall Out Boy songs but this is the one that got me hooked! Sugar may be the obvious choice but I like this one much more.”
5. The Phoenix (Save Rock and Roll, 2013)
“The chord complexity utilized in these piece shows a clear maturity in FOB’s work. The lyrics are edgy whilst not trying too hard, and the vocal work is more than worthy of note.”
4. My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark (Light Em Up) Save Rock and Roll, 2013)
“This song was word of the best things that happened to me. I remember the day that this came out I was really happy because it was the return and the reunion of fall out boy and I just screamed of joy and excitement because I was really sad and depressed during the hiatus because I thought that they would never come back. So that’s the reason that this is my favorite fall out boy song and also the lyrics I really relatable to me and the song is just pure awesome”
3. Dance, Dance (From Under the Cork Tree, 2005)
“Good beat, good drums and guitars. Both melody and backup guitars are extraordinary. As usual, amazing vocals and pure alternative rock. My personal reason of loving this song is that it reminds me of a beautiful past time memory. Glorious.”
2. THNKS FR TH MMRS (Infinity on High, 2007)
“So catchy and the vocals are just impeccable! I remember I went back to one of my primary school dances ages after graduating and this song came on and I just lost it at the chorus. No matter how many times you hear it, it never gets old.”
1. Sugar, We’re Goin Down (From Under the Cork Tree, 2005)
“This is THE FALL OUT BOY SONG. This is the only song that both the hardcore fans and the legions of new fans love. It is a universally great song and is the song that everyone sings along in the concerts. This song made fall out boy to what they are today. No ands, ifs or buts.”
