  • @TheWhiteManInCharge:

    You're insane. There's nothing gay about this music.

  • smoking nicotine releases a very small amount of dopamine causing a buzz afect. which is also how you get physically addicted to cigs. also, its called dope eyes when you get very dark bags under your eyes making you look like an empty shell. so cigs can get u high if its ur first one and you power drag it, and there is no cure. scientificly addiction along with alcohalism should never be cured. AA and NA are breakthroughs that are against scientific belfief's. ignore the gramer please.

  • FAG MUSIC

  • Apparently a herb called Iboga can help cure addiction (yeah yeah, i know they say your never cured, just covering...)But Iboga makes yer heart go at 1000 miles a minute, (i exaggerate slightly here), so is best taken under medical supervision.It can also give you a review of your life(no, never taken Iboga myself, just read about it.)

  • It does horrible things to people, but if it was legal and DIRTY CHEAP (no tax on it)...maybe it's just the price of the thing. OK ,I know people have died smoking it, but that's obviosly much rarer. I mean look how many poeple smoke, and how dumb that is (cigs don't even get yer high, just carry on sucking till yer get cancer, and the tax-man LOVES smokers!) I still say stay away from smack, but it's partly the economics of the thing, that damn market capitalism again!!!

  • I used to know a girl who didn't have any piercings or tattoo's and now she has more tattoo's and piercings than most people. She is also strung out on heroin and whatever else she can get a hold of now. It's just a matter of time before someone finds her dead to.She practically dead now because she is like a walking zombie. Bottom line is, DON'T METH AROUND WITH DRUGS KIDS.

  • @Trustandobey1 Agree with your message you're tryin to convey but,aside from being in the lyrics - what do tatt's and piercings have to do with drug addiction. I'm full of ink and metal - I've a Ba in Psychophisiology and am studying paramedicine - I did lose my best friend to herion and other addictions, who coincidentally had NO tattoos or piercings. So yeah DON'T MESS ROUND WITH DRUGS but also NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY IT'S COVER.....

  • @7905emmalou I didn't mean anything like that with the comment I made. Tattoo's and piercing don't make a person who they are. or even put a bulls eye on your back for the drug dealers What a person is on the inside will show outwardly. I see through piercings and tattoo's all the time.I just don't want to see the girl I know kill herself or anyone else for that matter. That's all I was trying to say. Drugs destroy. Always such a waste to see someone die from them.

  • This was when Everclear was kewl.

  • I hated seeing them go from this to "Father of Mine" and "I Will Buy You a New Life" , and being MTV Total Request Live / Carson Daly darlings in 1998.

  • Man. I remember seeing this on VH1 on Insomniac Music Theatre and fell in love with it. Haven't heard it in almost 5 years and it pops into my head, out of the blue, while I'm on the freeway. I miss those days, and this group.

    Rock on.

  • This song has the best opening line of any song, in my opinion.

  • behind every good junkie, there is a heroin girl "who will do anything to help with the disease". if you find her, don't ever leave her!

  • I was diggin on some reefer girl

  • i was at breaking benjamin concert at the roseland and art came out and did a acoustic verson of this song, that and someone threw a shoe and he told the crowd to punch them in the face lol

  • Is that under the Burnside Bridge??

  • @DogFactory001 I was wondering the same thing. It must be.

  • This is the "REAL" Everclear---driving and listening to this, you'll be doing 130 mph in no time!! I agree with ferretofpain; "Fucking Tune!!!" AWESOME.

  • fucking tune!

  • we lived on mexican beer and mexican food. i smelt dat

  • @pincheneo so..  is that good,i bet the food sux,

  • hometown PORTLAND OREGON !!! XO

  • @skullneck13 (: WOO! I'm currently living in Portland! <3

  • Can remember my dad jamming this shit in his BMW driving me to school hungover, God don't you love parents

  • @Diznalton You have a cool dad!

  • @Diznalton Thanks, My dad is a good man.

  • best song by everclear

  • 90's west coast thrash grunge. Best way to describe it? Love these guys..

  • Everclear may not be a punk band, but after hearing and seeing this, I'm pretty damn sure they could pull it off. Side note, does this remind any Rise Against fans of the guitar in "Re-Education"?

  • I will always levitate back to this video. My fiance will always levitate back to Everclear amphetimine.

  • Good old fashioned Portland grunge style .. .They were so young here ...truly old school. So lucky to live in Portland...They were awesome

  • another great song by everclear.

    faved

  • my friend told me everclear isnt punk i told him he was stupid and i showed him this song.

  • @OrangeCrushCamaro79 I think your friend is right. They encorporate so many styles into their music... Pop, punk, alternative rock, etc... That's what's so great about them.

  • @OrangeCrushCamaro79 Evercelar aren't punk.

  • you's to play with them, at seedy bars, i was in another band ofcorse. very cool guy's

  • i had one like her..... r.i.p

  • found her out in the field about a mile from home, face was warm from the sun but her body was cold, heard the police man say just another overdose............

  • how in the fuck does this have only 133k views and katy perry firework has like 300 million. everclear are a fucking burning band. peace and respect to the junkie bastard art.

  • GOD, I love this song!

  • What the fuck happened to these guys? So Much For The Afterglow marked the sellout point for Everclear. From downers to uppers, it's all pop-rocks now

  • everybody should watch this video everyday so it becomes the biggest on youtube.

    it wuld show how great everclear is

  • sickest song ever,, dayumzz

  • yae yae yae yae yae yae

  • I wish that like..Justin beiber and katy perry and shit would start doing Heroin and bring back this delicious and crusty 90's filth

  • what made this band even cooler was Art's affinity for heroin. :)

  • @Avinashda his brother overdosed on heroin........

  • I'm happy in hell with my Heroin GirL!!! ;)

  • anyone know what kind of shirt Art is wearing? Is it like an AA thing??

  • @z02480 thats a Civil Defense sign on the shirt aka Civil Defense=CD within a triangle... its before my time, BUT i still remember seeing old Signs of CD on them as a kid/teen in old school buildings and gov't buildings, etc... they we're SUPPOSED "Safe Places/Shelters" to take cover from a Nuclear attack by the U.S.S.R. Now the CD aka Civil Defense i think is pretty much known as Homeland Security... its the same thing tho' basically... Home Defense against enemy attacks... hope this helps!

  • @z02480 here's a link to some more detailed info on CD (Civil Defense) "Civil Defense: en(dot)wikipedia(dot)org/wiki/­Civil_defense" it won't let me put the DOT so i put it there for you :)

  • @z02480 It's a civil defense emblem from the 60's I think.

  • I remember seeing on the news that they shot this video at Burnside. Of course, being the lame ass that I was, I missed it but I still think its cool that they did it there.

  • Anyone remember Jollymon? If I remember right, Greg Eklund (the second drummer for Everclear) left Jollymon to join Everclear... that cat was a great drummer and also funny as hell. Met him a few different times and he was always popping off with something...

    Yeah, anyway...

  • They should go back to this formula

  • Sweet.

  • I used to date a Heroin girl ... bad times

  • @ms171819 me too man, $hit was weak

  • friggin rocks.

  • 2 super powers want to start world war 3, man kind needs us , they will turn on us ,not if we stop a war , mutants are too dangerous, Xmen first class in cinemas June 2 , OK OK OK OK OK I WILL FRIGGIN GO AND SEE THE MOVIE STOP SHOWING THIS ADVERTISEMENT EVERY VIDEO AHHHHHHHHHH

  • How many times has DP played this freakin' video? bahah Cool song...pretty solid punk for Everclear.

  • It feels really cheesey saying this, but everclear are the one band that everyone of their songs makes me feel happy and bubbly inside. I have to listen to them at least 5 times a day.

  • @Grunge4ever1993 i like the user name, and love the comment. Everclear is consistently the soundtrack to the warmer months for me and has been for some time now. Stay Grungy

  • THE DEATHLY HOLLOWS!

  • @sacklunchband

    ???????

  • this song is so EPIC! I play it when my Hydrocodone enters my bloodstream/brain and kicks in! and rock out, then i mellow out with FADE INTO YOU by MAZZY STAR after the drug peaks ;)

  • 7 ppl said "its just another overdose!" and pressed the dislike button!

  • best vid

  • my favorite song from this band or only.They are not doing anything original that any other band was doing at the time,its kind of trite but still a good song.

  • i am pretty sure he wrote this from an actual happening herion and just simply shooting drugs is a white trash hell

  • @michaelcsphipps he wrote it about his brother who overdosed when he was like 12

  • great song. so sad but so true to my life.

  • hey I am looking for this super cool  long version of herion girl with a long intro and probaly a long guitar solo does anyone knows where to find it my sisters boyfrirend used to have it i think it was on their single cd but i cannot find it amazon so I am a bit confused right now

  • get it - ETHER used to be a girl youd never leave.

  • GREAT band!!

  • Best song they ever did...

  • This makes me wanna jump up from the chair and bring the house down!

    YEH!

  • this video has the feel of like the only single by a ahrdcore punk band not a punk song from a singles band

  • Shoutout to everyone who hit puberty before 1995

  • Lost one of my best friends at the age of 32 to an OD. The fucking pig cop actually said "just another overdose". Awesome song.

  • Wicked Metal!

  • good song, but geez i hate worthless junkies.. they break into my vehicles, steal my tools, hope they overdose and die, just like the girl in the song...

  • perhaps you bloggers talking about the old days in origan......should view "drugstore cowboy" again..... all fimed in portland....i believe it was produced in the early 80'sca 1980's?..... Matt Dillon

  • @tforthomas did you mean oregon?

  • "I can hear them talking in the real world, yeah but they don't understand, that I'm losing myself in a white trash Hell." I've never taken illicit drugs in my life but I can relate to those words a lot at certain times.

  • Bieber! That bugger's everywhere!

  • GRAWHotAWOUIAHT i fucking LOVE THIS SONG and this VIDEO!!!! Man. You know what they did to film this? they put up fuckin sheets of paper where young people hung out, telling them to come to a place at a certain time to rock out. and they did. and they made videos like this REAL

  • they found her out in a field about a mile from home, her face was warm from the sun but her body was cold.

  • Alexakis is Greek-American, yeah

    and i m proud of it

  • love that 'just another overdose' line.

  • Too bad the art of making REAL music is dead. Loud, distorted, aggressive, full of venom....what happened? Oh yeah, Limp Bizkit happened. My band is trying to bring flannel back!

  • I love Alexakis but goddamn, he looks like such a junkie here.

    SCARY

  • My band is taking notes.lol 90's is coming back bitches!!!!

  • @BeckyThePoet no idea throwback hacks are worse than no talent fuckheads. take note, just play from the heart

  • omg burnside skatepark !!!!!! my brother use to skate there !!!!!! i just realized where that is whos an oregonian that skate park is bomb

  • @skullneck13 OREGON 4 LIFE!

  • @skullneck13

    oregon was good in the 80's and 90's. not so much now.

  • @oregonflatland some of it is good then some pretty much ridiculous because most places i grew up around is closed off or torn down. so pretty much most of my child hood is fadeing away

  • @skullneck13

    idk i'm not from portland but i do notice the place has a different vibe than it did in the 90's probably because of all the emo and hipster bullshit. those people ruined portland.

  • @oregonflatland more hipster then anything else the emo thing its very uncommon up here

  • @skullneck13

    ...i am sure you have viewed ....."Drug Store Cowboy" with Matt Dillon....I was filmed in Portland a couple decades ago now.....must see movie...god bless

  • SOOOO SO true 90's music was the best ~ ha ha , I'm a total 90s junkie...in more ways than one, it's almsost like I had t o experience what they went trough...just outta curiosity...I'm clean now, thank god

  • This woman's latest role is an example of how the American woman has been in a state of emotional emergency for years.  There are too many emotionally sharked-up American women walking around. These women will bite you and suck up booze and hit the moon with a big middle-finger.

  • this song puts me in a good mood.

  • Hey Band Managers and Ceos who pull the fucking strings or bands of the future this is what we want to hear not that bieber shit or whatever make it yourself like hank 3 or something!

  • these guys were awesome growing up with!

  • @TheDarkkLordd no they don't I just watched a video of them playing it and they suck

  • Comment removed

  • i can hear them talking in the real world, but they dont understand, that im happy as hell with my heroin girl..

  • They make music like this... no one listens to it anymore

  • love everclear...great lyrics...great performances...wonderful build into a heavy bass and drum....taking over the entire song except for alex's vocal...not a pretty voice but damn....it fits the music and is in key.....love it....oh...dont forgret the great chord change "hooks"

    tforthomas

  • after this album they started talkin bout buying you a new life and shit. what the fuck?

  • @maurin i agree.. and they all got mad lol

  • very grunge and cool

  • "Bad" drugs can also be "good" drugs; it's not the actual drug, but rather, the individual who is using it that makes it bad...or good. For example, take an amphetamine-based prescription drug like Dexedrine or Adderall--in the hands of a careless drug abuser they can spell disaster but in the hands of a law-abiding USER who takes it responsibly under the care of a doctor, it can be a blessing. Same goes for powerful narcotics, sedatives, etc. However, there are exceptions to the rule. Peace.

  • @bgrimes8533 Exactly... i been taking shit for over 10 years now i never take more or less and im super happy

  • played this at my bestfriends celebration of life party...

    pretty much how she left us...

  • @dorypogo123 sad...

  • That was a looong time ago, I was 17, left work early, and was somewhere in the midst of all that crazyness... Definately worth leaving work early for lol. FYI, filmed under the Burnside Bridge in Portland Oregon. It was cool becuase the director handed out little cameras to some of the people in the crowd to run around and film the madness.

  • @scnut30 no chit that was under the burnside? go figure

  • Oh Shit - Flashback AGAIN >>>

  • @AlwaysRecording damn straight to the 90s...all over again.

  • two people don't know what they're talkin bout.

  • drugs.

  • I wanna cover this song so fuckin bad...gotta figure out where to start. Don't know if i wanna get back into guitar tabs, guitar chords are so much easier, but it'd be worth it i think to stick this song.

  • This is one of those bands where even when they started doing pop rock they were still good

  • this fuckin song is growing on me I swear.

  • WTF. how did everclear go from this rockin awesomeness to complete shit

  • This is caffeine in a song. Probably my fav. song of Everclear.

  • sparkle and fade and so much for the afterglow are classics,

  • This song is so sad.

  • best fucking song ever!!

  • one of the best bands and underrated from the 90's they were still punk, even though they became widely known they didnt sell out and get crappy like most bands do. REAL punkrock, is not so much about noise, but its also gr8 musicianship, and as ppl get older the punk sound will grow up too, its a part of life, but punk, will always be raw. the crappy music that calls itself HXC? is not real punk, the vocals are over emphasized,and lack emotion & feeling. thumbs up if u agree.

  • @DjRodimusPrimeXyZ

    Are you kidding me, they didn't sell out and get crappy? Have you listened to any of their recent stuff? It fucking blows man. Everclear used to be an awesome band, then they gave in to the radio-friendly bilge that still pollutes the air waves today. Just look at that Volvo Driving Soccer Mom song. Generic song, generic video, generic power pop sound.

    I appreciate that you like this band, but if you think they've still got it you're out of your mind.

  • @LivesUnderABridge i always look for an exucuse to argue on teh internet ROFL anyway everclear never sold out they are older and have a more mature sound now they paid there dues so hush and stop being a negative nancy js hahahaha

  • @DjRodimusPrimeXyZ

    Absolutely correct. I remember the "critics" were always comparing them to Nirvana back then... I was playing with a few bands around that time in Portland. As the story goes, that cat from Bush; Gavin (? Whatever. Sorry to all you Bush fans, but they rode the coattails of the Seattle Scene, especially Nirvana.) came to Seattle to check out what was going on; what all the hype was about. Then returned to the U.K. and formed Bush, about whom I have not one kind thing to say.

  • @branded72 It's not like Nirvana pioneered grunge anyway , its was bands like Green River and Mudhoney that did. The older Bush albums had some intrinsic value to it, you can't deny that. Their new stuff sucks tho.

  • @Avinashda

    Melvins, screaming trees, and black flag also influenced nirvana alot.

  • @Avinashda but lyrically Gavin is garbage.

  • Oh thats right there was a time when they did not suck. lol I almost forgot after ... Wonderful....

  • hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

  • this band was always so gay but this song was pretty cool

  • HEY BANDS OF TODAY, TAKE NOTES MOTHERFUCKERS

  • @woteverz123 Lol great comment \M/

  • music written when they were younger, angrier, and broke. That is why it is good.

  • and higher.......

  • waaiitttt, waaiiiiiiiitttttt, THIS IS IN BURNSIDE PORTLAND ISNT IT?

  • That part "just another overdose!" is so sad :(

  • @robynskywalker That's a tribute to his older brother, who o.d.'d when Art was young. Cops at the funeral said "Oh, it's just another overdose." Art's mom went up to them and said, "That's not another overdose, that's my baby."

  • Why does Everclear suck so hard now?

  • The only Everclear song I ever liked.

  • @TattooedHoodlum if you liked this song then you would probably like their first album cause most of it was like this. World of Noise

  • Love this song!

    Back in the 90's these guys kicked ass!!!

  • Definitley under rated. I love this song and this band. I saw them a few years ago when they where promoting "Welcome to the Drama Club". They were awesome in concert and played a lot of there awesome old songs as well as the new ones. Art is a trip. I got to meet the band after the show it was awesome. They were all really nice people. Got to let Art know his writing inspired songs that I wrote. Would love to see them again. It was worth the wait the first time.

  • This song is exquisite perfection and kicks my ass everytime I hear it!

  • Back then Everclear was a whole different kind of sound.

  • @Mobidyfid Yeah. I like both the old and new one, they're amazing, the grunge-y sound was better though.

  • i'm telling you, this song can cause a riot...back then, when the drums hit...all hell broke loose.

  • love :P

  • I love this song

    But I haven't touched Facebook since my Heroin Girl poked me

  • i wish they made more albums like this one, they prettty much died out after the 90s.

  • i love this song my husband put me onto everclear sparkle and fade best album ever

  • this dude is like 48 yrs old now .....time flies huh

  • 90s Alternative kicks ass

  • i seen these guys play last night. great show.

  • this songs so sad

  • @fl6dj3 totally agree.
