1* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Quite a few songs.
2** From ''The All-American Rejects'', there's "Swing Swing" and "The Last Song".
3** From ''Move Along'', there's "Dirty Little Secret", "Move Along", "11:11 P.M.", "Top of the World" and "I'm Waiting".
4** From ''When the World Comes Down'', there's "Damn Girl", "Gives You Hell", "Another Heart Calls", "Real World", and "The Wind Blows" (as well as the Music/{{Skrillex}} remix).
5** From ''Kids in the Street'', there's "Someday's Gone", "Beekeeper's Daughter", "Walk Over Me", "Kids in the Street", "Gonzo" and "Affection".
6* BrokenBase:
7** ''Kids in the Street'' due to being a NewSoundAlbum with emphasis on classic 80's sounding songs.
8** ''When the World Comes Down'', to a lesser extent, was controversial for being a more pop-oriented album.
9* CantUnhearIt: During the second verse of "It Ends Tonight", there are a few lines where you can hear that Tyson appears to have a lisp (or really needs to swallow the saliva that builds up relatively easily while singing), especially when emphasizing anything with an F or a T.[[note]]For those wondering what to listen for, it sounds like crackling, specifically when he says "A ''falling'' star, least I ''fall'' alone" and "You're ''fighting things'' that you didn't know".[[/note]]
10* EpicRiff: "Dirty Little Secret", "Move Along" and "Real World".
11* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments
12** Their cover of [[Music/BritneySpears "Womanizer"]]. From the subversion of TheCoverChangesTheGender to hilarious instrumental choices (Tyson plays an accordion, while Mike plays ''beer bottles'' in a redneck outfit), the cover is pure gold.
13** The video for "Gives You Hell" is full of them.
14* GrowingTheBeard: ''Move Along'', impressively so. Not only did it avert a sophomore slump and see the band [[NewSoundAlbum evolve into a well-respected pop rock band]], but completely overshadowed their beginnings as an emo act, something [[NeverLiveItDown few other bands of the genre can brag about]].
15* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: "Believe" is this and a TearJerker.
16* {{Narm}}:
17** "Someday's Gone" ends with a ThrowItIn moment that just feels weird. At the end of the song, Tyson gives off a chuckle-worthy "wopwopwopwopwopwopwop".
18** The children chorus heard near the end of "Move Along" is sort of... unnecessary. Not only that, they sound somewhat unenthused.
19* NightmareFuel: The instrumentals to "Real World" have a very Halloween-ish feel to them.
20* SignatureSong: "Move Along", "Dirty Little Secret", "It Ends Tonight", or "Gives You Hell" may qualify. Oddly enough, "Swing, Swing", their first single, was pretty big, but seems to have been overshadowed by their many other hits, to the point that these are really the only songs of theirs you'll hear on the radio.
21* SongAssociation:
22** "Move Along" was very popular in 2006 where it was used for the Toa Inika commercials for ''{{Toys/Bionicle}}''. The song has since been affectionately picked up by the franchise's fandom as its unofficial "theme song".
23** To a lesser extent, "Top Of The World" is this for ''[[VideoGame/{{Burnout}} Burnout Revenge]]'' fans.
24** "Night Drive" is this for those who played the ''VideoGame/{{Cars}}'' video game.
25* {{Wangst}}: Definitely their first album, which is a prime slice of 2000s emo cheese, and ''especially'' their shamelessly melodramatic first single "Swing, Swing".
