And this is Song versus Song.

Today we are doing two songs that will probably get us eaten alive when people hear this.

We are doing, I'm Not Okay, I Promise by My Chemical Romance versus Sugar we're going down by Fallout Boy.

the two biggest songs from the two biggest bands.

Except for, I guess, Panic at the Disco,
