Panic! At The Disco

Ryan Ross; 吉他手, 鍵盤, 副唱
Spencer Smith; 鼓手
Brendon Urie; 主唱, 吉他, 鍵盤
Brent Wilson; 貝斯手

他們的故事是怎麼開始的呢? 想當年 Ryan Ross 十二歲的時候 在拉斯維加斯 Las Vegas, 向他父母要的聖誕禮物是一把吉他。然後, Spencer Smith 向他父母要了一套鼓, 所以他們才能夠一起練習。Spencer 說 「那個時候我們所做的都只是參照 Blink 182 的曲風。」 不過他們技巧越來越成熟, 加上 Brendon 主唱 跟 Brent 貝斯手的加入, Panic! At The Disco 人就這樣都到齊了。他們是從 鼓手 Spencer 的 祖母家客廳開始一起練習的, 慢慢的, 他們開始對 Fall Out Boy 的 Pete Wentz 的 Record 公司(http://www.fueledbyramen.com/) 有興趣, 因為這家公司給了他們很多自由 且開始發掘新音樂。

他們被簽下後, 就開始往專輯努力, Spencer 跟 Brent 高中畢業而 Brendon 則是半工半讀。至於 Ryan, 他決定在大學的第一年放棄學業, 而這也使得他與他的父親吵了一架。在沒有 Ryan 父親的支持下, 四個好朋友離開家裡, 在製作人 Matt Squire 的指導下朝著他們的首張專輯著手。(Matt Squire 指導過 Thrice, Northstar, The Receiving End of Sirens )

他們最喜歡的樂團是 Fleetwood Mac 與 Counting Crows。最後他們回到他們的家鄉, Las Vegas, 並舉辦了一場演唱會 (實際上, 這是他們第一場現場演唱會)。 兩百多個人出席, 包括他們的雙親及 Ryan 的父親!! 就是在這個時候 Ryan 的爸爸了解了, 他們的音樂是極有創作力的, 且成為了官方樂迷俱樂部裡的一員。

Back to the street where we began
Feeling as good as lovers can, you know
Now we’re feeling so good

Thinking of things we shouldnt read
It looks like the end of history as we know
Its just the end of the world
Back to the street where we began
Feeling as good as love, you could you can

Into a place, where thoughts can bloom
Into a room where it’s nine in the afternoon
And we know that it could be
And we know that it should
And you know that you feel it too

’Cause it’s nine in the afternoon and
Your eyes are the size of the moon
You could ’cause you can so you do
We’re feeling so good
Just the way that we do

When it’s nine in the afternoon
Your eyes are the size of the moon
You could ’cause you can so you do
We’re feeling so good

Back to the street
Down to our feet
Losing the feeling of feeling unique
Do ya know what I mean?

Back to the place
Where we used to say
Man it feels good to feel this way
Now I know what I mean

Back to the street, back to the place
Back to the room where it all began
Back to the room where it all beganCause it’s nine in the afternoon
Your eyes are the size of the moon
You could ’cause you can so you do
We’re feeling so good
Just the way that we do

When it’s nine in the afternoon
Your eyes are the size of the moon
You could ’cause you can so you do
We’re feeling so good
Just the way that we do
When it’s nine in the afternoon

Your eyes are the size of the moon
You could ’cause you can so you do
We’re feeling so good
Just the way that we do
When it’s nine in the afternoon
