248. King For a Day by Pierce The Veil (Pat's Birthday Extravaganza!!!) - a podcast by Tom Kelly and Pat Holmes
from 2021-11-05T09:00
It’s Pat’s birthday so we’re breaking decade and going DEEP into a song that has totally overtaken his life, King For a Day by Pierce the Veil. This is a band that, honestly, neither of us have ever listened to before YouTube shoved this thing down our throats for months, but who are we to question the algorithm? it always knows best.
This banger from 2012 has become a staple on emo Twitter/meme culture, largely due to its absolutely incredible music video of some scrappy young bank tellers who make a grown man piss his pants because they had to come into work on a Saturday. it’s just… the best. Hail Mary, forgive me…
