Top 10 Best You Me at Six Songs
Before you were screaming the words back at the stage or pressing repeat for the fifth time in a row, You Me at Six were five lads from Surrey figuring out how to make noise that mattered. Emerging from Weybridge in the mid-2000s and breaking through with their debut album Take Off Your Colours in 2008, they spent two decades riding the line between pop punk, alternative rock, and post-hardcore.
They shifted gears from era to era, but they rarely lost their footing. They toured the world, climbed the UK charts, scored number one albums with Cavalier Youth and Suckapunch, and kept fans guessing with each new release. Their final studio album, Truth Decay, arrived in 2023, and their farewell tour brought the curtain down in 2025. Not exactly a quiet exit.
Maybe you found them through a furious anthem that shook your car windows. Maybe it was a stripped-back ballad that got a little too accurate at 2 a.m. Their catalog runs deep, with aggressive riffs, sky-high choruses, and lyrics that can punch or soothe depending on your mood.
This is your chance to weigh in. Which songs have earned the most repeat listens? Which ones still slap just as hard years later? Vote for the tracks you believe should rise to the top.

Bite My Tongue
The lyrics are so full of meaning. It's catchy, and you will find yourself singing or humming this constantly. Oli and Josh sing so well together.
One of their best songs so far, and it is very different from many of their old songs (but in a good way!).
This is most definitely my favorite song off their new album. I'm in love with it! It's so good, just everything about the song.
It's perfect. Definitely recommend you listen to it.
YMAS and Oli Sykes are obviously awesome in this song. Both their voices and the lyrics are amazing. Of course, you have to give the rest of the band credit.
It gives me such a rush. One of the 'rockier' songs by them.

Stay With Me
Stunning. It has such raw emotion that fills you with an amazing feeling that is so hard to describe.
You'll listen to it over and over, and it will never come out of your head. Breathtaking.
There is nothing like it. The chorus never fails to get me to sing along!
This song has a great meaning.
-
Underdog
Great to sing along with due to a brilliant hook. Draws you in from the start with the quick drum beat.
The only downside is that it's not long enough. Still number one though!
Catchy and amazing when you play it loud! Totally love the band, the video, and the song. Immense!
I love turning this up really loud and blocking out the rest of the world.

Probably my most favorite song of all time.

No One Does It Better
This song is so emotional. Josh's accent makes it even better. I cry every time I hear this song. It definitely deserves the number one spot.
This has true meaning and is my favorite song in the world. Thank you, You Me at Six, for bringing such beautiful music into the world. You guys are my heroes.
I love You Me at Six. I've heard all of their songs, and this one remains my favorite. When your music is on shuffle and you skip all the songs, this is the one I stop to listen to.
A song that you can sink into. It catches your heart and fills it up with sweet sorrow. Truly an amazing song. Deserves a better spot.

The Consequence
The intro is just awesome, and then the song just builds from there until you just have to jump about mad and headbang at the last part.
I love this song. The lyrics are just simply awesome, and I listen to it like 1,000 times a day.
Amazing! I literally feel like headbanging every time I hear this song, especially the last part of the song!

Crash
This is such an amazing song! I really don't understand why this song isn't higher on the list! It definitely DESERVES TO BE.
I love it. It's so romantic and makes me want to cry every time I listen to it. I love You Me at Six. Crash shows that they can write rock songs as well as romantic ones.
Probably one of their best 'slow' songs ever! Glad they do a variety of songs to help set a certain mood!
It's a 'must listen.' I don't care if you don't like slow songs. Just sit and take in the amazing vibes.

An absolutely outstanding song by the best band on the planet.

If every song showed as much emotion as this, I'd never stop listening to music.

I am obsessed with all their songs, but this one has to be my favorite! This is the one that got me super, super obsessed!
Obvious choice. Liked the song before the album was even out.
Maybe older, but it is way better!

Always Attract
This song is so beautifully moving, and the excellent addition of all the electric guitars and drum beat near the end gives me goosebumps!
This song should be at least in the top three.
This is the most beautiful You Me at Six song ever! Josh and Elissa's voices mix amazingly together!

Lived a Lie
Epic. This should be in the top five! Even FIFA 14 loves the song. It is very motivating and has an adrenaline rush if you know what I mean.
Just two words... BLOODY awesome.
Probably one of the best I've heard so far.
Sounds amazing! I first heard it in FIFA 15. It's really amazing!
-
The Dilemma
This song is very different from their others. It's catchy, fun, and really shows their sound maturing from Hold Me Down and Take Off Your Colours.
If I had to direct the video, there would definitely be a burlesque line at the end!
-
Time is Money
Should be at least top two. One of the best collaborations I have heard from any band. When Winston comes in, the song goes from good to debatably the best song on the album.
-
This Is the First Thing
I love it! It's like an addiction, definitely one of their best songs.
-
Playing the Blame Game
-
Room to Breathe
This is the first and best song I heard by You Me at Six, and the reason why I started listening to them. It's just so amazing!
Seriously, 21? This song deserves first place.
What? No. 23? Great track and my stand-out favorite. Makes these listings the joke they often are, but maybe it is just too recent to register in the top 5 where it should really be.

Fireworks
Beautiful, emotional, and relatable. It tells a story.
You can hear in his voice that what he is singing are real emotions he has felt.
When the song gets to its climax and he belts out those notes, it gives me goosebumps.
This song is so amazing. It's filled with such raw emotion, and you can just feel yourself connecting to it when you listen.
The lyrics are beautiful too. Definitely deserves a higher spot on this list.
Such a stunning song. The number of times I've listened to this song, and still, it brings a tear to my eye.
It's worthy of a higher place for sure. Just beautiful.

Great song! Needs to be higher on the list. Can't stop listening to it! YMAS for the win!
