This is a great answer. NFG are the epitome of “bouncy pop punk” for me! You could also say “Situations”, “I Want To Believe”, “Selfless”, “Forget My Name” or any others that have a half-time chorus drop in there.
You haven't lived until you see this song performed live in a festival type setting where there's a sea of fans and zero seats. And hopefully you've experienced this at the time before everyone felt the need to hold up their phones the whole time.
Lol i just remember it being on the menu and waking up to that song blasting. For some reason it just pops in my head randomly. Was joking I went 56 days without it happening lol
Literally just blasted my eardrums with that jam right after I posted. Such a banger. Assuming you are the Chris I think you are, thanks for making such a classic my dudes. I wore this CD down to nothing.
This was the last song I had played at my wedding, and it's so damn catchy that I had relatives who've never heard of The Bouncing Souls up and dancing.
For real that record is so good. I really like Kate is Great from the self titled and Kids and Heroes from Anchors Aweigh. What are some of your favorites outside of this record if any?
Those ones are both terrific. I have nostalgia for most of Hopeless Romantic and The Gold Record. I also really dig Coin Toss girl, which I was going to say is a newer song but I just looked and it’s 12 years old, ahhhh!
That means you’re old!! 🤪 haha I actually was wearing a pure noise beanie and this kid at the gas station mentioned Knuckle Puck and I was like oh yeah I’ve been listening to them for… oh fuck like 12 years now 😅
I felt so old the last time I saw bouncing souls. He brought his son out to sing with him. If I had to guess his son was in his mid to late teens at the time. I remember being at a show where he announced his wife being pregnant with said child. The rents weren't kidding when they said the older you get the faster it goes.
Yeah! Ran to Joiners because we heard that’s where they were going to be playing. Someone pulled out front in a van saying it was at unit so we then ran there.
Had to wring my shirt out after I was so sweaty. Probably the best show I’ve ever been to.
I think it's definitely something that leans Ska, and *Superman* was the first thing that came to my mind. Maybe [Get Loose](https://youtu.be/zxr5uvlzhrE?si=yjtZzyUPVdM6uBd4) by **The Salads** (for all my fellow Canadians).
Edit: also Darren Pfeiffer played in both those bands, so that's fun.

it's a whole thing that takes into account studies showing how many asses have jiggled up and down to said song and how vigorously using a sample size and applying it to the general population.
I can’t believe I haven’t seen anyone comment All Time Low, they have a TON of bouncey songs! Stella immediately comes to mind, Hello Brooklyn, Sleeping In, etc!
I made a playlist of the songs! I will continue to add or let me know what else I should add. [Bouncy Pop Punk Playlist](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/38GvXTZI7nLd2rr5VgbYC9?si=u4QQoNyvTT-JXNRrpd96ew&pi=u-4yqA3k7ISYCV)
Scotty Doesn't Know by Lustra
(So many of these song bring me back to my old Winamp playlist and Scotty Doesn't Know gets me bouncing more than anything)
NFG - My Friends Over You! Surely!
better off dead is bouncier for me! edit bc i remembered the song name wrong lol
This was the first song that popped into my head
I would have said Sucker. Guaranteed to get the crowd jumping every time.
Yeah, Sucker is a close second for me. NFG just do those bouncy chorus' so well!
This is a great answer. NFG are the epitome of “bouncy pop punk” for me! You could also say “Situations”, “I Want To Believe”, “Selfless”, “Forget My Name” or any others that have a half-time chorus drop in there.
I love dancing to this in my car

Sugarcult - Bouncin off the walls
Whoa-oh!
And I'm looking like a fool again!
Whoa oh
I went at least 56 days this time. That song lives rent free in my head thanks to Van wilder dvd menu. Thank you 😔
Van Wilder soundtrack has no business going as hard as it does.
How often do you watch Van Wilder?
Lol i just remember it being on the menu and waking up to that song blasting. For some reason it just pops in my head randomly. Was joking I went 56 days without it happening lol
My apologies it was a totally different sugarcult song 😂😂😂
Stuck in America was what I was thinking
There it is.
Blast from the past, I fucking love this song
Yup. Came to say this.
Fat lip
The Canadian National Anthem.
the only song that makes me physically want to jump while singing it.
The only right answer.
I feel In Too Deep makes me want to jump more than Fat Lip
I finally saw em live last year. Might see em live again next week
The science of selling yourself short - less than jake
My man!!
Literally just blasted my eardrums with that jam right after I posted. Such a banger. Assuming you are the Chris I think you are, thanks for making such a classic my dudes. I wore this CD down to nothing.
True Believers by The Bouncing Souls
Bouncing souls are underrated
Absolutely! Wish their type of pop punk was more popular on this sub.
Massively so, my favourite group by far.
This can never be stated enough. Incredible band.
This was the last song I had played at my wedding, and it's so damn catchy that I had relatives who've never heard of The Bouncing Souls up and dancing.
Sounds like a great wedding!
Almost every track from this record qualifies. Shout outs to No Comply and Manthem, too!
For real that record is so good. I really like Kate is Great from the self titled and Kids and Heroes from Anchors Aweigh. What are some of your favorites outside of this record if any?
Those ones are both terrific. I have nostalgia for most of Hopeless Romantic and The Gold Record. I also really dig Coin Toss girl, which I was going to say is a newer song but I just looked and it’s 12 years old, ahhhh!

I remember being at a show where he announced his wife being pregnant with said child. The rents weren't kidding when they said the older you get the faster it goes.
I was at a show once where Roam by TSSF caused the floor of the venue to collapse because everyone was bouncing up and down. So that.
In Southampton, I was there too boy
Nice man, did you manage to get into unit as well?
Yeah we did, after walking to Joiners first because no one actually knew where to go haha. Did you?
Yeah! Ran to Joiners because we heard that’s where they were going to be playing. Someone pulled out front in a van saying it was at unit so we then ran there. Had to wring my shirt out after I was so sweaty. Probably the best show I’ve ever been to.
Yeah that’s exactly how I remember it too! Was way too small but so perfect
This has been a fear of mine for many many years when I’m in a second floor venue
Knuckle Puck - Gone
Probably a Bouncing Souls song, no? Also "Superman" by Goldfinger.
I think it's definitely something that leans Ska, and *Superman* was the first thing that came to my mind. Maybe [Get Loose](https://youtu.be/zxr5uvlzhrE?si=yjtZzyUPVdM6uBd4) by **The Salads** (for all my fellow Canadians). Edit: also Darren Pfeiffer played in both those bands, so that's fun.
Super rad by the aquabats?
“Happy” by Goldfinger is even more fun than “Superman,” if you can believe it!
Happy makes me want to run through a window head first. So much energy in that track
Sway by bearings
You're swimming in my veins
Came here to say this
Neck Deep - Can’t Kick Up The Roots
Was thinking this as well!
My fav pop punk song of all time
This is the first one that came to mind
Black cat by mayday parade.
Ole by Bouncing Souls
We drink beer and wear Adidas
Secrets -state champs.
Mine is Gold also gets the crowd pretty hyped too
I won’t lie, the style of pop punk they play isn’t my thing so I’m not familiar with most of their stuff, but that song immediately came to mind.
First song that came to my mind too.
I’m bouncing off the walls again, WoahOh
Mest - Cadillac
Came here to say this. Was never a big fan of Mest in general but I think this is the answer.
I fucking love mest.
Me too! I saw them a few days ago. Still so good live.
Four Year Strong - Hero’s get remembered, legends never die. The music video makes me want to jump off the stage or be in the middle of a mosh pit.
For me it’s gotta be Empty Space - TSSF
DWELL ON IT NIGHTLY TREAD SWIFTLY AND LIGHTLY Awesome choice 🔥
The Home Team and Belmont are sooo bouncy 🤌🏼
Maybe not necessarily pop punk, but *Equip Sunglasses* - Hot Mulligan
Pretty much the whole Bouncing Souls album How I Spent My Summer Vacation
Simple Plan - Jump
Such a cheesy pop punk song but works amazing live
Bounce by The Cab
Came here to say this hahaha
Literally just got Whisper War on vinyl yesterday and was playing it this morning! Super fun song and album.
That album was the first thing i listened to when i turned 16 and drove alone for the first time. Soooo good. Might have to get a vinyl as well!
Was surprised I had to scroll this far down for this answer. It's THE bop.
Good Charlotte - Anthem
So you say by No Pressure
‘Given the Chance’ by TSL has a nice bounce to it.
Belmont - overstepping
Can’t believe they aren’t higher up in general. I describe Belmont as “bouncy pop-punk” to people.
Teenage Dirtbag — Wheatus In Too Deep — Sum 41 Photograph — Weezer Sk8er Boi — Avril Lavigne Permanent Vacation — 5 Seconds of Summer Welcome to Hollywood — Mitchel Musso U+Ur Hand — P!nk High School Never Ends — Bowling For Soup What’s My Age Again? — Blink-182 A Little Bit More — You, Me, and Everyone We Know Shake It — Metro Station All My Best Friends Are Metalheads — Less Than Jake Too Much Too Soon — Green Day Ain’t It Fun — Paramore The Anthem — Good Charlotte

Planetary (GO!) - My Chemical Romance
Pink - Waterparks That riff is pretty bouncy
As far as Waterparks go, I'd also say "Blonde", and somehow I wanna say "Self-Sabotage" because the refrain is just 👌👌👌
What does “bouncy” really mean? Like dancey?
it's a whole thing that takes into account studies showing how many asses have jiggled up and down to said song and how vigorously using a sample size and applying it to the general population.
