The song We are Young. I've googled it - & I see it was on Glee (never watch that) & used on commercial (which I haven't seen either - til just a min ago).

My dd & I were thinking it was used during the Olympics? But didn't see it listed on wiki when I searched it.

Its driving me crazy! Wherever it was I think it was just the chorus - none of the bar stuff.

And it seems like I saw younh kids singing the chorus
 

Surely you must have heard it half a million times like the rest of us over the last year :rotfl2: Anywhere...everywhere...

Ya know it so sounds like something that belongs in grease or something - :thumbsup2

If you like that song, you'll like they're other one that Fun did: "Some nights". Both songs are very catchy. Btw, are you sure it's not the tv commercial...chevy did several versions, including one that aired during the superbowl back in Feb. That's where I first heard it.
 
If you've seen 13 Going On 30 (movie with Jennifer Garner) they are singing We Are Young in the scene where she is goofing around with all the teens after she became the older version of her.

That's Pat Benatar's "Love is a Battlefield". The OP is describing "We are Young" by Fun. Different song :)

My first thought was on the radio every hour, every day.

My dd's chorus sang that at her concert last year. They also sang it when they went to some show at an amusement park. OP, ever been to Lake Compounce? :laughing:
 
Go to You Tube and look at the parodies of "We are young" by FUN. My favorite is "we are drunk" and "we are old", I think it is called.:lmao:

I do have to admit the song is horrible lyric-wise with the content which makes the parodies funnier. I still love the song though.
 
Yep...I love only the chorus...wish it didn't have all the bar stuff in it

They played it after the football game last night & of course everyone was singing it...and I was just wondering where on earth I knew it from.

See, I'm 47yo and the first time I heard it on the radio with DD in the car and the chorus came on, I sang to it. DD asked "How do you know this?" I said, "It's old." She said, "No, it's not. "

:confused3 I've been confused ever since. Why do I know that chorus and why does it take me back to the 70's when I hear it? :confused3 Now, your question in your OP feeds my craziness.

I am 47 too and I think you are crazy.:lmao:Just kidding.

Are you sure we are talking about the same song?:confused3 The song by FUN is newish.

Go look it up on You Tube & listen.
 
I agree. The chorus reminds me of another song and I told my DD that too.

My first thought was from around the 70's too but I'm not sure.
