Fall Out Boy’s The Last Of The Real Ones: Colorguard solo

Published 2023-03-06

Hey guys! This video has been a long time coming, and I’m so glad I got it all done in time for my school’s talent show! I broke my right hand pinky finger partway through choreographing the routine, but a little thing like a broken bone can’t stop me! This routine was so much fun to write, and the lyrics really lent themselves to my creative inspirations. Every part of this was a great experience, and I’m thrilled that I won the People’s Choice Award for the talent show! Colorguard is a wonderful sport, and I enjoy it very much.

The Last Of The Real Ones is truly one of my favorite songs by Fall Out Boy, and my favorite from M A N I A! The lyrics really spoke to me, and I related to them greatly: “You’re the last of a dying breed, write our names in the wet concrete.” It’s hard to find people who are like you, people who you can truly be free around, but I am incredibly lucky to have people in my life who I can be my authentic self around. And as a person who is very socially anxious and not very good at versing what I want to people, the line “I know this whole damn city thinks it needs you, but not as much as I do” is truly something I relate to.

‪@falloutboy‬ can’t wait to see y’all at #SoMuchForTourDust for my birthday! Seeing my favorite band live for the first time in my life, the day before my sweet 16, is the best gift I could ever ask for.
