Paramore finally gave fans what they wanted 13 years after releasing All I Wanted – the track’s first-ever live performance. It’s fair to say that they can’t believe their eyes – and ears.
The festival, appropriately named When We Were Young (WWWYY), brought together the most prominent rock acts to transport audiences back to the 2000s with the help of the WWYY festival. Paramore and My Chemical Romance, as well as Bring Me The Horizon’s pop queen Avril lavigne, were the rock giants.
Paramore proved why they were headliners as legions of fans crooned their hearts out to their greatest hits, including Still Into You and Ain’t It Fun.
Things kicked off with a never-before-seen performance of All I Wanted, the track’s live debut after its 2009 release. The internet has been plagued by FOMO since clips of the track went viral.
Paramore opened When We Were Young festival with All I Wanted
The three-piece surprised fans with a long-overdue performance of the emotional track from 2009’s Brand New Eyes. It was written after a terrible breakup and will be a hit with many teenage fans who grew up listening to their music.
Singer Hayley Williams is tasked with the song’s high notes, so we don’t blame her for not performing it until now.
The 33-year-old singer took it up a notch, hitting higher notes than anyone expected at the music festival. It was well worth the 13-year wait.
Day one of WWWY was cancelled because of a Las Vegas storm warning. However, things were fortunately clear for Paramore.
Misery Business wrapped up their 12-song set on a happier note.
Paramore’s entire set list:
- All I Wanted
- That’s What You Get
- Are You Still Open to It?

- Here We Go Again

- Ain’t It Fun
- Last Chance
- Hard Times
- This is why
- Misery Business
