PERSONAL EXPERIENCE 

I have not gotten to see The Used live yet but I might on March 25th and I'm really excited for that. I found out about The Used through my boyfriend Michael roughly around 2 years ago and I fell in love. Their songs can range from upbeat to slow and sad, and I like that they can do that. Bert McCracken's voice is perfect combination of smooth and raspy. I love all of their songs, and I really really hope I get to see them live. Since I can't really choose a "favorite" (It's VERY rare that I can have 'favorite songs') I will just link you to a few random ones.
