I thought about this song a lot when I was younger. All these important people and events- some that disappeared into the sands of time- others that changed the world forever. So much has happened in the span of the last 34 years- we felt like a little system update might be fun. Hope you like our take on itā€¦

Kinda poetic how the original song mentions Queen Elizabeth starting her reign, while this one mentions her death

It is officially someone's artistic responsibility to continue this again in thirty years

I actually like how it's not chronological. Really encapsulates how the last ten or so years have been a blur to me. I can't even remember the chronology of these events in my own lifetime, I just feel like everything's on fire.

The world is still turning. The world is still burning. See you all in 30 years, Iā€™ll be 55 by then and I look forward to see how this all plays out. Stay safe everyone, pick your fights, living to tell the tale is more important than getting wrapped up in the whirlwind of everyone elseā€™s despair. Take care of yourself and those you hold onto dearly. Be mindful and aware. Staying silent isnā€™t easy, but itā€™s easy to speak out and make a scene.

"It was always burning" hits different when it's the second time this song has been done. It's nothing new, but it won't be ending soon

I feel like the lyrics of this song should get an update every 20-30 years.

WHY AM I JUST HEARING ABOUT THIS SONG NINE MONTHS LATER?! This song encapsulates whatā€™s going through my mind. The wrong, the trending, the entertainment of the world. Some seen and some not. How me and others are trying to fix the spreading fire around the world. War in Afghanistan, bombs in Lebanon, but on the parallel iron man, and aliens. ā€œWhat else do I have to say?ā€ really hits too. What else do u have to say? The world is burning and weā€™re watching it happen, while some are trying to stop it. (this is super long but Iā€™m going to listen to this song for eternity now, and the old one too. And yeah, no chronological order is a bit of a pet peeve, but the song is still great.)

As a millennial the first song's theme never really 'clicked'. I understood the concept - the world keeps turning despite the whole world feeling like it's engulfed in fire, but that's just the way the world is, generation after generation, we didn't start it, and neither did our parents generation. But it wasn't until right now, today, that this song hit me in a way that the original never could. I lived through all but a few of these. These are childhood memories, things that are engrained in my memories as watching it happen live. My Homeroom teacher came into the library one day in middle school and abruptly announced "We've just been attacked" and immediately pulled out the TV and turned on the news. I watched the second plane hit live from my middle school library, Ender's Game in my lap. I grew up watching Captain Planet, and SpongeBob, and Jordan play for the Bulls, and listening to Jackson stun the world with his pop music. This summed up the world around my life. And it hits, hard. Because it's been a sh*tshow for most of the time. And it provided a sense of peace and hope in thr future to know that the world's always been on fire like this. This isn't new. And life goes on. I hope Gen Z / Gen Alpha get their own version in a couple of decades. Because you can't truly feel this song until it echoes your existence.

Definitely bothers me that this isn't ordered chronologically (like Joel's original was), but "World Trade, second plane - what else do I have to say?" is an incredible line to end on. That said, FOB could have easily borrowed the "wars" rhyme of the '89 ending and closed out theirs with, "Never ending culture wars, I can't take it anymore." I mean. It's right there, guys.

"JFK blown away, What else do i have to say" has to be the most poignant line in the original verson, as well as the most significant tragic event in most people lives of that generation, with 9/11 being my generations. "World Trade, Second plane" sure hit me right in the gut.

Honestly, this kinda made me cry..(granted I'm 26 and have no actual connections to the original)..but the change up of the last Line "But when we are gone, it will still burn on and on"... From "Will it still burn on and on?" Was powerful XD

The original by Billy Joel is one of my favourite songs ever. I have been saying for SO many years that someone should do an up-to-date version of it, and I was so happy when I first heard this version! I really hope that Fall Out Boy and Billy Joel perform together someday and sing both versions back to back. Also, I especially love the little homages to the original in the lyrics here - especially "Ever Given Suez" referencing "Trouble in the Suez" - genius!

Can we please introduce the tradition that, every few decades, someone sums up everything that's happening in the world, with this song

I hope this becomes a tradition among the music industry, to make an update to this song every 25 - 30 years or so.

I get an emotional and physical response from this cover. It hits harder because Iā€™ve lived through all of these events and people. Great update to the song.

I think it's an unspoken rule that somebody, somewhere, wakes up one day and suddenly realizes they have the responsibility of re-creating this song. and the cycle will continue every 20 years.

I like how in the old version it says: ā€œwe tried to fight itā€ but in this new version it says ā€œweā€™re TRYING to fight itā€ that was a nice touch šŸ˜Œ
