all killer no filler welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top ten
sum 41 songs
[Music]
for this list we’ve chosen our entries
based on the combination of the artists
fan favorites and their most
commercially successful song
[Music]
number ten motivation friends never
knowing when every step I take is always
do you ever find it hard to put on a
fake smile for society or have trouble
doing actual work if so motivation is
the perfect Kickstarter for your day
[Music]
sure you may not find yourself doing
anything productive except rocking the
heck out but the lyrical tenacity just
may help you think about the idea of
getting something done the song kicked
off each home game for the Detroit Red
Wings in 2003 and millions of videogame
rockers produced epic guitar faces when
motivation was featured on Guitar Hero
warriors of Rock of course it just
wouldn’t be a punk rock jam without a
kick-ass punk rock video
[Music]
number nine with me but dough is mama
[Music]
so
some 40 once loaded down and turned back
the clock for this song about intense
devotion with lyrics and music video
structured around poignant memories with
me rose to the top of the Canadian
singles charts while hitting number five
on the since discontinued US Billboard
Pop 100
lead singer deryck whibley allowed his
heart to bleed out for listeners while
still providing a heavy pop punk sound
for the more hardened crowd all in all
with me stands the test of time as a
powerful punk rock anthem of love
[Music]
Oh
number eight we’re all to blame please
just
written after a trip to the Congo this
track succeeds on various levels
becoming one of the Bands biggest
critical triumphs
[Music]
lyrically we’re all to blame conveys the
madness of corporate manipulation and
the greed that often destroys lives
while the chaotic tempo symbolized a
fear of death and war some forty one
transcended genres with this
philosophical song which earned the band
a devoted new following wind we’re all
to blame served as the music backdrop in
Godzilla final Wars
who knows maybe it was about Godzilla
all along although it’s quite unlikely
[Music]
number seven over my head better off
dead
ah the morning after you have a hangover
you have to apologize and you have a
story to tell
over my head is all about the
repercussions of late night antics when
you simply don’t want to deal with them
the dual nature of the lyrics highlight
someone at odds with posers while
acknowledging the brutal truth of their
own misgivings
in other words the smallest bit of
information can often become the
centerpiece for disaster
number six makes no difference to
missing Russia not helped in the early
2000s had its fair share of teen
comedies and this sum 41 tracks served
as the perfect soundtrack for reckless
abandon
but the message rings loud and clear
don’t worry be happy
the hammering riffs and vocals were
featured on EA Sports NHL 2002 along
with Dave Mirra freestyle BMX 2 and the
music video even featured DMX on an ATV
[Music]
it’s hard not to love this killer some
41 song which makes for the ideal anthem
for summertime house parties
[Music]
so am I still waiting for this world to
stop hating can’t find a good reason
can’t buy number five still waiting
[Music]
at a time when garage rock bands all
embraced the same aesthetics musically
and physically some forty-one changed
things up for their second album and
reinvented their sound
still waiting takes a stab at people
filled with hateful ignorance while the
music video scoops a well-known
production by The Strokes
lead singer deryck whibley powers
through his vocals with vigor and the
overall tone of the track is filled with
disgust for all the proverbial haters of
the world
[Music]
number four pieces I tried to be perfect
but nothing was worth it
the keyword for this reflective ballad
is image you know the people who convey
a perfect life on social media but are
secretly filled with regret and crying
themselves to sleep my pieces may
symbolize broken relationships for some
but it’s ultimately about leading an
honest life and knowing when to cut the
cord
in other words are you dependent or
independent life can be a crazy thing
and sometimes you just need to take a
long walk down an empty street to sort
out all the pieces
number three the hell song everybody’s
got a problem
everybody said to save saves ooh yo this
hellish number deals with conflicting
emotions of processing a friend’s
illness tinged with frustration the hell
song was written after deryck whibley
learned that a friend had contracted HIV
from her cheating boyfriend
[Music]
at the heart of the song however is the
idea that one must move on and find a
way to deal with the hard facts of life
everybody says the same thing to you
it’s just a matter – musically the hell
song allows for a good deal of head
banging and remains the definitive sum
41 song about friendship
things were looking up you said it
wasn’t good enough but still we’re
trying one number two in too deep okay
ladies and gents this one is for all of
you who refuse to end relationships for
the lamest of reasons I’m afraid to be
alone it might get better she or he has
my CDs
[Music]
radio-friendly and undoubtedly relatable
into deep reflects the inherent madness
of a broken romance you do things
together because you’re used to it
[Music]
while older listeners might catch the
music videos parody of Rodney
Dangerfield’s 1984 film back to school
anyone who grew up in the 2000s just
recognized the song as another sum 41
banger
[Music]
before we unveil our top pick here are a
few honorable mentions
[Music]
Oh
[Music]
number one fat lip there’s never been a
Sun 41 song that reached the masses
quite like this one by combining hip hop
with pop punk and allowing their
personalities to shine through padlet
became not only an MTV favorite but a
cultural phenomenon seen in film video
games and television
[Music]
released during the spring of 2001
Fatlip gained momentum throughout the
year and led the ban to the bright
lights of Saturday Night Live lyrically
some 41 captured the essence of punk
rock along with a brand-new following
well beyond their native Canada
