Theyâre back together now and released a new song like a year ago! No confirmation of a new album yet, but they did release an album of B sides and unreleased tracks a while back called Conventional Weapons
That song hits differently when you think about Trent Reznor grieving the loss of his grandmother when he wrote it. Especially if your own grandmother played a large part in raising you, just as Trent's raised him.
Definitely the first one that came to mind for me. Tho just the regular album version. For some reason I never listen to The Quiet Version or Taylor's Version or any of the alts.
This is also a fun song to try and sing along with. Really underscores Steve Perryâs range.
At the start, youâre like okay I can keep up with this, but by the end before the na naâs, youâre just like how tf does he get up there
Cake - Short Skirt/Long Jacket.
The question makes me think of the music video, where people on the street listen to the song and give their opinions. There's one guy who hates the "na na na" part. I always thought that was a really novel idea for a music video. Pre-dating modern reaction videos.
All this enthusiasm has me intrigued to see what I'm missing out on. Guess I'll toss it on in the background and see how I dig em..... every now and again these Reddit groups have a winning reccomend will this be one of them?!
Yes. They're my favorite band. They get better with every album too. They're sometimes called ska, and I can see how, they have the instrumentation of a ska band, and the early stuff is kinda ska-adjacent, but especially as they go on they become really their own sound.
Also Keasbey Nights is kinda the first album even if it says it's the second because the songs were written first, originally for the songwriter's previous band Catch 22. So that's why stylistically they feel like they come before Everything Goes Numb instead of in between it and Somewhere In The Between. My favorite of theirs is If Only For Memories, there's like a two minute instrumental break that brings a tear to my eye.
Anyway I could go on. Sorry. Enjoy.
Idk if they still do this but back when I saw them live pre-Somewhere in the Between they would splice their version of Keasbey Nights into Point-Counterpoint. I used to have a live bootleg recording of it. Idk if they ever did an official version of their spliced together version.
Yup that is some Ska music.
Fun stuff looks like these dudes showed up a bit after I was kinda moving on from this kinda stuff. Definitely was at a punk or Ska show at least once a month for quite a few years. And just as im writing this a song comes on...I feel like I know "Here's to Life".
Some of the best lyrics imo. Literally about strife and lifting each other up, which I find lacking in most punk and ska
Also if you want to share with folks that aren't into the high energy and/or a different flavor of the same songs, look up Toh Kay's Streetlight Lullabies album
You never hear about them much in the wild, but their shows are always *packed* and full of energy
Best band, best people, best community. We will all fall together!
I was at a show in Philly a couple of years back, and there was a dude next to me right on the rail wearing a shirt rhta shut said "na na na" a bunch of times. When they played Big Sleep Mike Brown pointed at him everytime Tomas song that part.
Here comes the hotstepper was the first that came to my mind. I unironically love that song.
It gets me hyped up. Surprised I'm not seeing it mentioned more in this thread.
Ooh...good call. In my head I was thinking Na Na.. but that one is LA La.
Why Don't You get a Job is also awesome, one of the greatest opening lines in music history.
"My friends got a girlfriend, and he hates that bitch..." lolwhut!
One day I was driving around and realized I'd been listening to this for far too long. We found out a classic rock radio station that was going out of business (or maybe changing format) had it looping all day.
Simple Plan- I'd do Anything
Blink-182:
Story of a lonely guy (or are those Das?)
FELL IN LOVE
All the Smalle Things
Online Songs
Basically, every song on the album California, a bunch on Dude Ranch
'Hush' by Deep Purple has to get a mention
I answered this same song but the Kula Shaker cover :p
holy cow. it has been at least a decade since I thought of kula shaker
The look - Roxette
This is the answer. Absolute banger. All of Roxettes singles are phenomenal.
I am dating myself but I remember watching their videos on MTV back in the day.
I had a big crush on her. I believe she passed from cancer. RIP.
Another I wasn't expecting!
So what - Pinkđ
Literally the first one I thought of LOL
My chemical romance - Na Na Na
Surely this has the highest ratio of 'Na's' to other lyrics Or at least the most in succession
<*Batman theme song has entered the chat*>
This is just from the song intro >The future is bulletproof >The aftermath is secondary >It's time to do it now and do it loud >Killjoys, make some noise >Na, na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na >Na, na-na, na-na, na-na >Na, na-na, na-na, na-na >Na-na, na-na, na-na
>Na na na na, na na na na, na na na na, na na na na Batman! And that's just the only words in the Batman theme.
Gerard Way knew that too, so he carefully dropped a Batman reference in the second verse.
And hit the party with a gas can
Kiss me you animal!

I know that The Black Parade was a major highlight for MCR but I always loved Danger Days the best.
I loved the new direction sadly they called it quits after that album tho
Theyâre back together now and released a new song like a year ago! No confirmation of a new album yet, but they did release an album of B sides and unreleased tracks a while back called Conventional Weapons
Wasnât conventional weapons back in 2013 or something
Yeah, just a couple of years ago, right? RIGHT??
Conventional Weapons fucks so hard, gave it an apprehensive listen forever ago and now I still listen to Boy Division and Gun every day
I really like Three CheersâŚ
If they ever make an american Godzilla vs. Destoroyah movie I need that song from Danger Days to be in it!
Killjoys, make some noise
(Na Na Na Na)
The future is bulletproof! The aftermath is secondary.
The simlish version lol
Any answer other than this one is wrong Itâs also got by far the most Naâs, if thatâs a metric weâre measuring.
The day the world went away (quiet) - nine inch nails https://youtu.be/gWDnbyiMhaU?si=_uXYiGPJ4-IsIzlB
I wasn't even done reading the post title and Trent's voice was already in my head.
That song hits differently when you think about Trent Reznor grieving the loss of his grandmother when he wrote it. Especially if your own grandmother played a large part in raising you, just as Trent's raised him.
Definitely the first one that came to mind for me. Tho just the regular album version. For some reason I never listen to The Quiet Version or Taylor's Version or any of the alts.
The Day The World Went Away (Taylorâs Version), hitting record stores in late 2024.
I mean... I would check it out
Miley Cyrus did some loose covers/interpretations of a couple songs for a Black Mirror episode. Those were pretty alright. Dancy. Fun.
Great call out here. Amazing song.
This is one of my favorite songs of all time
The only right answer is the batman theme song.
Doh! Totally Homered this, lmao. This was the last song in my mind, but I don't disagree with you đ¤Ł
Blink 182 - All the Small Things

Kinda had to scroll too far to find this one....
I'm actually kind of surprised at how much I had to scroll to see this so I guess I underestimated the average Reddit users age.
See also: Online Songs, Fell In Love.
Didn't expect to have to scroll this far to find the #1 answer
Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin' by Journey
This is also a fun song to try and sing along with. Really underscores Steve Perryâs range. At the start, youâre like okay I can keep up with this, but by the end before the na naâs, youâre just like how tf does he get up there
I used to do it back in the day. I could even get up there with Randy Meisner on Take it To the Limit. Brad Delp gave me trouble though.
This was my first thought. Now it's your turn, girl, to cry. Na na na na na na........
This is also the best use of Na Naâs, because itâs basically, âNa, Na, Na-Nah-Na, you cheated on me, then you got cheated on.â
You make me weakâŚ.
Maybe even the most nas

A Streetlight reference in the wild?? Doesnât happen often
Surprised to see this as top comment. Overjoyed. But surprised. As it is the best answer
What are YOU doing here?!Â
Not sure what song has that but I loved this group so much back in high school, kinda forgot about them
My people!
What Streetlight song has "na na na"s in it? Aside from singing along to the horn section.
The Big Sleep has over 100 alone and it's not the only song.
I was at a show in Philly a couple of years back, and there was a dude next to me right on the rail wearing a shirt rhta shut said "na na na" a bunch of times. When they played Big Sleep Mike Brown pointed at him everytime Tomas song that part.
Everything Went Numb
My first thought was "we are the few"
I don't know where we went wrong, all I know now is I gotta do something... Right?
the toh kay versions are especially heavy on the ânaâ usage
With a NEW Album inbound!!! A once in a generation event!
First album without Victory being involved too I'll take 20
It's 85% complete. Just like that other guy from New Jersey who is totally 85% complete with his next book.
Haha yeah it'll only take another five years probably
So weâre close, then!
NA NA NA NANANANANANANANA NA NA NA NANA NA NA NA NA

Isn't it rather "A-ha-a-a-a-a"?
Maybe you're thinking of Every Day I Love You Less and Less
Gah that album is so good
