Geschiedenis
Yellowcard werd in 1997 opgericht op de Douglas Anderson School of the Arts, de band bestond toen uit 6 leden: Ben Dobson (zang) Todd Clarry (zang en gitaar) Ben Harper (gitaar) Sean Mackin (viool, achtergrond zang) Warren Cooke (basgitaar) Longineu W. Parsons III (drums).
Yellowcard kreeg hun naam doordat ze, als één van hen iets stoms deed op een feestje, zoals een glas laten vallen, diegene een gele kaart gaven zoals in voetbal. Aan het begin van hun carrière was er verwarring over hoe je de naam moest schrijven (Yellowcard of Yellow Card), de band maakte toen bekend dat het Yellowcard was.
Yellowcard's grote doorbraak kwam met het de single Ocean Avenue van het gelijknamige album. Daarvoor hadden ze maar weinig succes met albums.

[Kids singing:] Let's burn a hole, so we can climb out. Of these paper walls, and this empty house. Don't listen too close, they're words are like guns. With bullets that fly and kill what you've won..
Let's burn a hole, so we can climb out. Of these paper walls, and this empty house.
We're the only thing that's real.
These visions we have of ten years ago, Of stars in the sky and us down below. In streets and east coast lines, We kept this scene alive.
Here I am, still hold on to this, Dream we had, won't let go of it, Hear me now, you will never be alone..
Don't listen too close, they're words are like guns. With bullets that fly and kill what you've won. Some love to hate, and some tell you lies. So lets make a toast, and kiss them goodbye..
We'll kiss them all goodbye..
Here I am, still hold on to this, Dream we had, won't let go of it, Hear me now, you will never be alone..
Here I stand, won't turn back again. Won't leave you, know how hard it's been Hear me now, you will never be alone..
Let's take what hurts, and write it all down. On these paper walls, and this empty house. And when our ink runs out, we'll burn it to the ground..
Here I am, still hold on to this Dream we had, won't let go of it, Hear me now, you will never be alone..
Here I stand, won't turn back again. Won't leave you, know how hard it's been Hear me now, you will never be alone..
Yeah..
BELUISTER DEZE SUPERSONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mary belongs, to the words of a song, I try to be strong for her, Try not the be wrong for her, But she will not wait for me, anymore, anymore, Why did I say all those things before, I was sure,
(She is the one) But I have a purpose, (She is the one) And I have to fight this, (She is the one) A villain I can't knock down,
I see your face with every punch I take, And every bone I break, it's all for you, And my worst pains are words I cannot say, Still, I will always fight on for you,
Mary's a light, in the bright New York-sky, A city light shines for her, above they might cry for her, Everythings small on the ground below, down below, what if I fall than where would I go, would she know?
(She is the one) All that I wanted, (She is the one) And I will be haunted, (She is the one) This gift is my curse for now,
I see your face with every punch I take, And every bone I break, it's all for you, And my worst pains are words I cannot say, Still, I will always fight on for you,
I see your face with every punch I take, And every bone I break, it's all for you, And my worst pains are words I cannot say, Still, I will always fight on for you,
