Top 10 Best Passion Pit Songs
-
Sleepyhead
I knew this song from Little Big Planet. I'm a little biased because of all the beautiful memories from that game. Take a Walk is also amazing. They're both on an equal level for me.
Now THIS is how you sample a song. The singer's voice simply explodes with passion (thus the name of the band), and the way he remixed that old song will be stuck in your head forever.
I can't even describe how this song makes me feel. It just puts me in a better mood automatically and draws a smile on my face right away!
-
Carried Away
This song is great for many reasons. The bubbliness and airiness of Passion Pit's songs add to the character of the music.
My favorite. I love the tune, the meaning, the video - just an overall great song.
This song makes me automatically feel refreshed and happy. It's beautiful.

Eyes as Candles
By far my most favorite song by Passion Pit.
-
Little Secrets
Straight up the most interesting song they've made. There's so much going on that you never get bored of it.
This is probably about Michael's struggle with bipolar disorder. I can't get enough of the melody and lyrics!
Genius lyrics, quick beat, and mysterious meaning. It brings back rock and alternative ties into a psychedelic beat.
-
Take a Walk
This song is so catchy, and it feels wholesome, like a song really should be. It sounds amazing, it feels natural, and the lyrics are relatable. I would have to jump right over Sleepyhead - despite its creativity and well-selected instruments - this song is truly addicting.
I heard this song on the radio when it was first released. I didn't quite catch the name of it and subsequently spent nearly a year trying to find it. Beautiful and catchy.
I love this song. The lyrics are great, and I love the chorus! Who wouldn't like this song with its flowing beat and tones?
-
To Kingdom Come
Took me by surprise the first time I heard it. Amazing song and definitely a standout for Passion Pit and music in general! The dark lyrics about orange peels and crying to God are very intense, but the contrast with the happy melody is interesting and very catchy. The "feel alriight" part is probably some of the best 15 seconds you'll ever hear.
The feel alright part always gets me jumping every time. The very dark lyrics totally contrast the happy melody. Great song and a personal favorite on the Manners album, right next to Sleepyhead.
-
The Reeling
Truly an amazing song. The trumpet is really creative and unique. The synths fit perfectly. And that chorus. So catchy! One of the best parts is that classic drum pattern from the '80s that occurs after every few measures or so. Genius.
-
Moth's Wing
This is my favorite song, so of course I'm biased, but it's also amazing and it instantly lifts my spirits. It can mean anything to anyone, which is part of how cool it is. You can derive your own meaning from it, which is unique nowadays.
One of the best songs from Manners. The beautiful lyrics and sweet, soft instrumental are perfect together.
Great, deep vocals and detailed instrumentals. The great lyrics help too. Moth's Wing is definitely my favorite.

It's Not My Fault, I'm Happy
I first found out about this song from the Fun Size soundtrack when Victoria was running, and I thought it was absolutely perfect and I had to find it. A year later, it's still one of my favorite songs by Passion Pit, and I can't believe it's not in the top five. What the hell?
A song about despair and shortcomings with an underlying tone of vengeance and anger. One of the most complex songs on the album.
I'm not sure, but I once heard that this song is about someone with bipolar disorder. What an amazing song.

Cry Like a Ghost
By far their most complete work. The lyrics and production are flawless. This song makes the album.
My favorite Passion Pit song, yet it's ranked this low. It's the definition of underrated.
This song is, and always will be, one of my favorite songs of all time.

Constant Conversations

Lifted Up (1985)
-
Swimming in the Flood
This song is so good! I think it should easily be in the top five. I love the wailing, moaning sound of this song. It's such a bittersweet song, and it works absolutely perfectly.
This is the most underrated and best Passion Pit song so far.
1. To Kingdom Come
2. Swimming in the Flood
3. Sleepyhead
4. Folds in Your Hands
-
I'll Be Alright
Excellent bridge between the separate parts of the song and the amazing "I'll Be Alright" chorus. Definitely one of Passion Pit's best songs.
-
Where We Belong
The most underrated Passion Pit song ever. The lyrics show Michael Angelakos's struggle through his mental disorders. In the end, it becomes a song about learning how to depend on the ones you love to recover.
Unflinchingly vulnerable and personal, "Where We Belong" is without a doubt one of Angelakos's most intimate and disturbed songs. It serves as a perfect conclusion for Gossamer.
Easily the most powerful Passion Pit song of all time. Every piece of it is absolutely perfect. This song changed my life.

Where the Sky Hangs
A catchy song that makes you happy.
-
I've Got Your Number
Even starting off, they were dropping bangers like this. Unreal.
-
Folds in Your Hands
It is an easy standout from Manners, a great album with hidden gems just like this. It is a borderline generational song.

Love Is Greed
-
Let Your Love Grow Tall

Seaweed Song
This is one of the best ways I've ever seen an artist end a pop album. There's so much passion and creativity put into this song, it's unreal.
-
Hideaway
This is an unintentional reflection on Angelakos's desperation and need for a romantic relationship, and how that relationship acts as a crutch for bipolar disorder.
