Video Premiere: Panic! At The Disco "But It's Better If You Do"
The guys from Panic! At The Disco are rapidly gaining chart momentum with more and more video play of their single "I Write Sins Not Tragedies" on the major music channels. The Las Vegas band is moving forward in Europe and recently put out the video for the second single "But It's Better If You Do" that is also taken from their debut "A Fever You Can't Sweat Out." The video is reminiscent of The Killers' "Mr Brightside" with the setting in a brothel, a love innuendo and the campy, burlesque decor.
I met Panic! a few weeks ago and there are three things you might not know know about handsome singer Brendon Urie. First of all, he was raised as a strict Mormon but left his church to pursue a career in music (much to his parent's dismay). Secondly, Urie counts Queen's Freddie Mercury as one of his biggest inspirations as a singer and stage performer. And third, even though he grew up in Las Vegas he doesn't like the hotel strip. "We mostly stayed in the suburbs. I haven't been to the Strip in years," Urie told me. "None of us are old enough to gamble anyways!" [source]

I have fast become a fan of the band. Yes, I'll admit 80% is due to Brendon's face, but I get a guilty pleasure listening to him sing. The lyrics are surprisingly good, and their song structure is interesting... it sometimes sounds as if he's just picked up a notebook and started singing a paragraph. I likes. And wonderful song titles as well.

OMG i think Brendon Urie is the hottest guy i have ever seen in my life and i would do him in a heartbeat! but i really like Panic! because they have some awesome songs and there undiscovered. i always listen to undiscovered bands.

they are a marvellous band and i agree with the whole loving something especially when it is reasonably undiscovered.
All the songs that i have heard from them are all fabulous- i can relate to the rhythm straight away- while it takes a while with some other songs.

When I first head Panic! it sounded like a toned down version of fallout boy... but as I really listened it became apperant that their sound is quite unique and well done. The lyrics are great as well.
And I can see how the guys are attractive, but in the 'It's Better If You Do' video, his wife is a total babe, don't even try to deny it.

when i first heard "i write sins not tragedies" i was so sure i'd been listening to FOB; was i ever wrong! i’m kinda glad that i was too since P!ATD is just that little bit more awesome. yes, they have the cutest vocalist on the planet (which, sadly, i’m only realizing now after watching the music vid for "it’s better if you do"; i’m a sucker for guys with a 50's, slicked-back hairstyle goin' on *blushes*) but they also have charisma and some of the best lyrics i've ever heard. i would normally consider them pop-punk like their predecessors-slash-industry introducers, FOB, but i can't; with songs like "London beckoned songs about money written by machines" or "build God then we'll talk", they stand as part-INDIE, part-EMO. there's something about them you can't help but love!! go Panic! go ^.^ *cheers*

Posted by: Maira at Jun 24, 2006 11:09:45 PM
-pokes comment above- SHE? :P anyway yes Brendon is very sexy and hot! he's the only guy so far that would make me strongly consider doing it before marriage. o_O xD when he smiles in 'But It's Better If You Do', i smile. widely. i wonder how he feels about all that female attention. Ryan is a real poet, the lyrics are great! he's cute too. ^^ P!ATD AND THEY'RE SONGS ROCK. A LOT.

well yes I do agree with everyone's comments.. brendon urie is very gorgeouss*=] But I do hope you guys know that in the new music video they made, Lying is the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes off, the boys of Panic! at the disco put fish tanks on their heads because they want girls to stop fixating on their boyish looks, and Lyricist and Head Guitarist, Ryan Ross stated in an interview that he finds it disgusting and very disappointing that girls focus on their looks. Although I still can't resist the charm of Brendon Urie&Ryan Ross. Oh, and by the way did anyone see Brendon Urie kissing a girl at the VMA's when they won Video of the year? I wonder who she is...
