God, I still adore this. It was the first song that i heard of theirs and I've just decided it's still my fave after all these years. I've probably faved and rated it in the past but, tough, I'm doin' it again anyway. Faved and 5*
This clip is so amazing. Just like the clip of Floods. Their clips are just so.. I don't know, I haven't got the words to discribe. They're original and fun to look at.
I love Fightstar and Charlie is awesome, regardless of what band he was in before. Everyone's got a past, man lol. His voice is so wicked though, I never knew he could sing like this!
I 'saw' them Friday night in Liverpool.. I say saw them, I saw them get back on their bus. Charlie was ill, so they're going to have to reschedule the show. I hope he's better now, though. I can't wait to see them!!
bloody hell fightstar u play amazingly on friday at manchester academy. my friend and me were on the floor though :( so scarey!. and dude madina lake were amazing too! xxx
The full 'They Liked You Better When You Were Dead' EP was heavily influenced by Palahniuk and the cover featured a hand drawn adaptation of Ed Norton's character in the film Fight Club. This song was gonna be called 'Out Swimming in the Flood' but they decided to rename it after the tsunami in Asia, pretty much like they held of the release of Floods off the new album due to all the floods in the UK at the time.
this song is awesome! i still cant believe how much charlie has changed. he has gone from one of my least favourite bands ever to one of my favourite bands
Fightstar rocks....My Favorite song is Paint your Target. The 1st i have heard.... Gotta love their style.(Busted splited 4 years ago crap....maby its 4 the best)
this song is amazing, and i'm reyt good cos i'm seeing them live tomorrow night :D lol anyone else seen/seeing them on thier current tour? what you think of the new album?
Amazing song!Charlie is so talented.I hated Busted, I think they was just a stepping stone for him. Now he is able to make brilliant rock music as part of Fightstar. Go Fightstar!
It's meant to be Palahniuk's Laughter afaik. Not sure who they're referring to as Palahniuk, but I know Chuck Palahniuk is the journalist/ fiction writer who wrote Fight Club.
I bet £10 you didn't know the tuning without the internet! The last thing anything expected was charlie to suddenly go from standard with busted to drop B. i myself, who have played guitar for years was quite shocked at the tuning! But I'm glad they dropped to B sound is huge!
this isn't busted. the main singer charlie used to be in busted but then broke the record contract because he wanted to pursue a different type of music with his other band FIGHTSTAR. he is now undeniably awesome
Matthew in all due respect thats exactly why busted aren't around anymore, he quit to go do what he wants. The fact they changed record labels for the 2nd album was due the old record label wanting to take them in a pop punk direction. Its unfair to hold that against a front man when time and time again he's proved he's doing what he wants to do to.
fighstar seen um live there amazing busted are gd also complete different thing that was rock pop this is metal rock and screamo. so there but they are both gd best song they both have made fighstar's is 99 and busted air hostess
starting to fall in love with fightstar now. I haven't heard them in ages, but they're so awesome. I'm guessing this will be my new fad. Love 'em!

The title refers to the author Chuck Palahniuk, who inspired the song.
Amazing song!Charlie is so talented.I hated Busted, I think they was just a stepping stone for him. Now he is able to make brilliant rock music as part of Fightstar. Go Fightstar!
love fightstar
i read in a interview that he wasnt happy with the music busted were producing and that it just wasn't his style, he said he was extremly unhappy
It's meant to be Palahniuk's Laughter afaik. Not sure who they're referring to as Palahniuk, but I know Chuck Palahniuk is the journalist/ fiction writer who wrote Fight Club.
this song fucking rocks. So glad i found out about these guys.
you r too good man fight star rock on
YEAH!!!!!LOVE FIGHTSTAR.
its on their EP 'they like you better when you were dead'
They're gonna be in Peterborough on the 24th of aprill XD
Can't wait XD
I'm glad Charlie finally realized he had way too much talent to be in Busted.
not possibly, this is their best!!!!
and wat a drummer!!!!!!
I bet £10 you didn't know the tuning without the internet! The last thing anything expected was charlie to suddenly go from standard with busted to drop B. i myself, who have played guitar for years was quite shocked at the tuning! But I'm glad they dropped to B sound is huge!
great song
He Made A Good Choice.
all three albums are incredible but come on, be human is brilliant. this was just standard post-hardcore, they've come into their own on the new album
for translation to english peoples, he/she's saying
"... Yeah! That moment is super sweet! "
I agree man! Qui, et moi!
epic video, like it a lot
Wow!! well cool im seeing them on monday at the kerrang tour in glasgow cant wait. What were they like ???
thank you =]
I was unsure with Fightstar cause of Busted but this song fucking got me to love em.
It's quite hard to believe that he was in Busted. He's fucking metal now! Awesome song, awesome band.
this isn't busted. the main singer charlie used to be in busted but then broke the record contract because he wanted to pursue a different type of music with his other band FIGHTSTAR. he is now undeniably awesome
this song changed my life
i fucking love it,
charlie simpson is a genius
This is my favorite fightstar song! It kicks ASS jonas brothers ass to be specific
Well said.
-mild applause-

for sum reason when i downloaded it, it was called out swimming in the flood, so which title is right?
fightstar are fucking amazing...love this song and the video!! ooch!

fighstar seen um live there amazing busted are gd also complete different thing that was rock pop this is metal rock and screamo. so there but they are both gd best song they both have made fighstar's is 99 and busted air hostess
Busted was an embarrasment to rock, if you can even call it that.
Fightstar however.. awesome.
