Fall Out Boy has released an updated version of Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire," ticking off key moments in world history from 1989 to 2023.
Like the original, the new cover includes mention of space exploration.
"So much has happened in the span of the last 34 years — we felt like a little system update might be fun. Hope you like our take on it," the rock band posted to Twitter on Wednesday (June 28).
Unlike Joel's classic, Fall Out Boy's recounting of events is not organized by decade or any type of chronological order. The first verse, for example, jumps from "Captain Planet," the 1990s animated environmentalist superhero TV series, to "Iceland volcano," which seemingly is a reference to the eruption of Eyjafjallaj kull, which halted all air traffic over Europe for several days in 2010.
