8. Little Things (Good Charlotte, 2000)

“This song reminds me of my years in the school yard. I bought Good Charlotte’s first album and instantly fell in love with this song! I love the intro at the start and I love Benji’s back in vocals and the video clip is awesome… I don’t think I’ll ever stop being a GC fan and it’s all because of this song.”

7. The Motivation Proclamation (Good Charlotte, 2000)

“I like how the guitars chime in the verses, the chorus is quite anthemic and overall it’s reasonably mature. It even has a simple but decently-fitting guitar solo. No Joel Madden’s voice will never be great and the interjections of ‘rock!’ just before each chorus make me roll my eyes slightly, but this is overall perfectly fine.”

2. The River (Good Morning Revival, 2007)

1. The Anthem (The Young and the Hopeless, 2002)

“This song is really catchy, but that is exactly why it is pure boy band punk emo evil. Everyone knows they shouldn’t like this song, but now and then it will pop up in the minds of even the best of us. It is all part of their evil worldwide brainwashing-through-catchy-yet-admittedly-terrible-music scheme. They’re in it with Godsmack and Boston. Mark my words.”
