3.5 its a bit boring and the vocals are annoying. it could be a grower but im never going to listen to it again so....<br><br>Classic, my favourite song from Fun. I love the anthemic build up.

...and then it went on to chart, make #1, and stay in the chart for half a year. What a journey for that song playing in the background while a girl was cutting an apple :P It's a very cool song too. Any time I think I'm getting tired of it, I listen again and remember what I liked about it in the first place. However "Some Nights" is better.<br><br>My 53rd favourite song of 2012.

It has a kind of cool sound but at the same time it's not overly great or anything.<br><br>Edit: It is most certainly overly great.

I can't believe I gave this a 4. This was one of the best songs of 2012 and even though I loved the Glee version, I could easily appreciate this as something different and now I love it more. It's a great simple track with a mint beat and a great anthemic chorus. Awesome song.

Wasn't sure what to expect, but it's very good. Clip is an interesting FBR take on Pyro :P

Awesome track and the flow to it

I quite like it.
***
There is something so annoying in this song, but it's not that bad I guess. Also it's a bit too repetitive.
****
Two of my favourite artists collaborating!! I'm really liking this, though I wish Janelle Monae was in this more!!
*
So horrible and bad! His voice irritates me so much!
****
I surprisingly like this now despite the sterile production and average lyrics (well in the chorus anyway), the bridge is still rather bad, Monae is much better than that

Just a week or so ago, this song would've been lucky to get a 4* but something has suddenly clicked. The chorus is a gem.
**
Okay, but I can't really get into it.<br><br>I admit that I enjoy the lead-up to the first chorus, and the part after the last chorus, but I find the rest average. Chorus annoys me a little.<br><br>EDIT: Down to a 2. Video clip is crap.<br><br>3* -> 2*.<br><br>EDIT 2: Okay, I guess it's alright.<br><br>2* -> 3*.<br><br>EDIT 3: Horribly overrated, and I'm back to disliking it. Nothing more to say.<br><br>3* -> 2*.

This is a great track and has stood out giving lots of success in the process. 72,977 sold while at #1. UK#1 and Ireland#1. 1 million copies sold in the UK.

An average track. The vocals aren't that crash hot and Janelle's contribution are a waste of time. I much prefer the Glee version for the variety of the vocals between males and females, it seems to add something extra to the song. Definitely would have struggled to chart without the asssistance of Glee (or the Superbowl in some countries).

hammer song!!!<br><br>kämpf für mich mit Some Nights um den titel als bester track auf ihrem album....wobei We Are Young ein kleines bischen besser ist!!!
*****
Great song by fun. but in my opinion Some Nights is a little better.I'm giving it a 5 only because i'm kinda sick of it and it's been overplayed way too much .
*
Yuck.
*****
super
******
Love this song. The best song by Fun. and one of the best #1's of 2012.
****
Peaked at #4 on my personal chart.<br><br>Came in at #58 on my TOP 200 OF 2012.<br><br>A truly significant anthem of 2012 that will be remember for many years to come however I do find it a tad over rated and not as good as some of the other material on the album.<br>Plus the film clip is a stinker :p
**
Would be much better without the song going from fast then to a halt and then all slow. Also hate the part at the end when the lead singer is yelling over Janelle Monae's singing. Some Nights is a million times better than this crap.

Didn’t give this the time of day when it was new but it's a lot better than I first thought. Only gripe is they credited Janelle Monae despite her being underused in this. 3 —-> 4*

Only a whisker above average at the time but had grown to like it in the last couple months of 2012. A really good track in hindsight.

Great song. Although I really don't like the lead guys voice. Much prefer the glee version. Which is terrible I know...

Annoying song. The video is also annoying. I prefer Some Nights than this trash sorry
******
I'm surprised that I never reviewed this song considering that it's probably in my top 20 songs of 2012, the year which I discovered my passion for music. It's still a criminally underrated song however and it's definitely one that you would listen to when you need some inspiration from whatever. I still love We Are Young with all my heart!
***
I've always struggled with this track. There's very little to grab onto, and the chorus is quite awkward, even if a simple call-to-arms chant was the intention. Janelle Monae is very under-utilised here also, which makes you wonder why they even bothered.
****
Overtime I’ve really come to like this. Though the verses kinda suck still. 3.8*
