Cameo Appearances

[edit]

Elvis Costello singing Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown on a Bad Bet never seems to happen... Rocknrollstar328 (talk) 13:53, 26 October 2008 (UTC) Where's the citation for him being in the song?[reply]

It is hard to pick up because unless you are consciously listening for it then the vocals sound quite similar... listen to when Costello sings: "I will never end up like him behind my back I already am, keep a calendar this way you will always know."

For your interest, these are the other cameo's: Gabe Saporta: Where is your boy tonight I hope he is a gentlemen maybe he won't find out what I know you were the last good thing about this part of town

Travis McCoy: We're going down down in an earlier round And sugar we're going down swinging I'll be your number one with a bullet A loaded gun complex cock it and pull it

Brendon Urie: Dance, dance We're falling apart to half time Dance, dance and these are the lives you'd love to lead

Doug Neuman: This ain't a scene it's a God damn arms race This ain't a scene it's a God damn arms race

Alex DeLeon: One night and one more time thanks for the memories even if they weren't that great he tastes like you only sweeter

William Beckett: Growing up, growing up

The last few lines of the Sugar, We're Going Down excerpt are also hard to pick up.

I wanted to know myself whether there was a part of Beat It (feat. John Mayer) included in What A Catch, Donnie? Around 3:30 in, you can hear a "Yeah-eh-yeah-eh-yeah" very similar to Beat It.

Elvis Costello

[edit]

The version of this song on Believers Never Die: Greatest Hits is different than on Folie à Deux. Instead of Elvis Costello singing his usual lines, it's clearly Patrick Stump. Listen to the two versions, you can hear the difference. And yet, in the back of the CD booklet, it still says Elvis Costello contributed vocals. Does anyone know anything about this? Am I the only one who noticed? --Worthlessboy1420 (talk) 02:35, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I couldn't find a source for it but I edited it accordingly.

Release dates

[edit]

According to Fall Out Boy drummer Andy Hurley (on my Twitter conversation with him), "What a Catch, Donnie" is the 3rd and last single from the Folie à Deux album. However, the song was first released to iTunes in October 2008 in the lead up to the album's release. "America's Suitehearts" is the 2nd single. This means "What a Catch, Donnie" was released sometime in 2009 as an official single, however the actual dates are missing.

Genres

[edit]

No genres are listed. I don't know what to put. If anyone could put something down, that would be great. Massachusettsan (talk) 00:04, 4 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
