I was in a band that opened for these guy back in the day. Very nice guys. If I recall it was in Texas or Arkansas and some guy pulled his girl up on stage and proposed to her. Then they played that song about loving your girl who also happens to be a bitch. So some dude is out there floating around, hopefully still married, and has a story about how he proposed to his wife at a Bowling for Soup show.

I almost posted this the other night after my drive home. "Full of singers who are mad at their dad's" is a hilarious line. Bowling For Soup always seemed to genuinely enjoy what they were doing with a great sense of humor, and even more self awareness. Cool band.

These guys also do the Phineas and Ferb theme song if I'm not mistaken

“Does a mullet make a man?”

Damn, I’d forgotten about one of the great lyrics of our time.

Bowling for Soup (acronym: BFS, or sometimes B4S) is a pop punk band based in Denton, Texas (but originally from Wichita Falls, Texas) formed in 1994 from the remains of an old metal band. Quoting Jaret Reddick, the lead singer, "we wanted to make happy music". They're known for their often humorous lyrics, upbeat guitar riffs, and Jaret's distinctive voice.

They are best known for their singles "Girl All The Bad Guys Want" in 2002 on Drunk Enough to Dance which was nominated for a 2003 Grammy Award for "Best Pop Performance by a Group or Duo" and "1985" (originally written by Mitch Allan of SR-71) in 2004 on A Hangover You Don't Deserve. Speaking with Songfacts about "Girl All The Bad Girls Want" in a 2010 interview, Reddick said: "'Girl All The Bad Guys Want' was my very first co-write ever, and me and Butch Walker sat in a room and literally wrote that song in 30 minutes. I mean, it was done."

The band's name is derived from comedian Steve Martin's "Bowling for Sh*t" routine from his 1978 comedy album, Wild and Crazy Guy, itself a reference to Bowling for Dollars. Jaret Reddick has also stated that at the end of his last performance with his old band one of the members came on stage and proclaimed "Come back next week when we play with our new band... BOWLING FOR SOUP!". This was supposed be to be joke name, but since they couldn't think of anything better the name stuck. Their single '1985' can be found on the UK and the Norwegian editions of Singstar Rocks for the PS2.

They have also became hits on Radio Disney with edits of "1985", "Punk Rock 101", "High School Never Ends", and the inclusion of their version of "I Melt With You" in the Disney movie "Sky High". They have also written and recorded "Today is Gonna Be a Great Day" as the theme song for Disney's "Phineas and Ferb"

I remember not being allowed to go see bowling for soup in middle school. Still a little upset about that.

I can't hear this song without thinking of Teenage Dirtbag by Wheatus. Not to imply one is better or one is a ripoff. I just find the subject matter a bit similar.
