I can't help to think in some nights that a band so young was going to set the world on fire and burn brighter than the sun. But I guess we must carry on for the past of the sound from 2012 be your your feet upon the ground. Carry on.

I thought they were gonna be huge due to that album. But apparently the lead singer went solo, dyed his hair, and played his last show a year or two ago. No sign of fun. ever again after that. Its a shame really because that album is pretty good with songs like Carry On and Some Nights.

And also that according to them, they never split up, they're just going to play again when they feel like they enjoy it.

Thankfully they're not on bad terms or anything too crazy. Glad to hear they'll eventually come back.

Nate did a really nice collab with Brian Wilson about 2 years ago:

Shoot answer: I think that Nate and Jack really just got together as a one off and then were always planning to go back to their own stuff. Even when fun was active both were still doing their own solo and band projects.

No offense to anyone who likes fun. but I don't think I've ever loathed a mainstream radio song as much I loathe We Are Young. Faux-anthemic horse shit that I'll be glad to never hear again.

Officially, they are on hiatus. Nate did his solo album and toured behind it for a decent amount of time. Jack has released 2 cds as Bleachers and done a lot of songwriting and producing for others. If you like fun., Nate's solo cd is well worth listening to. Probably my favorite cd for the year it came out.

Faux-anthemic horse shit that I'll be glad to never hear again. I actually really hate that Some Nights song so much. We are Young is the only hit song from them I can tolerate. It's a song I should hate for reasons but never did and like a bit more each time due to nostalgia.

I actually like We Are Young, not enough to listen to anything else that fun. has, but I have a soft spot for that song for some reason.
