  • Tank Man at 2:08! BALLS OF STEEL!

  • Supposedly there's a dislike bar, but i don't see one...

  • Make list of songs that have same message as this and are par the awesome.

  • Καληνύχτα..:)

  • I love this song! :)

  • BEST MUSIC VIDEO EVER

  • remake video of this on eve of last day of mayan calendar.

  • as if this song only has 5 million views; the WHOLE WORLD should see this song.

  • Thumbs up if u still listen to this son in 2012

  • where is the 2nd version of this song "How far we Go"

  • 1 of my fav songs for 3 years straight ..

  • 89 people don't realize how far we've come.

  • Nervous nelly....

  • SO THATS WHAT THE "hello hello hello" was in my track!

  • i never thought that matchbox 20 was the one who sang this since i heard this song.. hahaha

  • The drums in this song are pretty crazy

  • over 5 million views and only 89 dislikes... thats pretty good. But still there should be none.

  • whats bad about going to the moon, tearing the wall down and women's rights?

    I love this song but I don't understand a lot of the video.

    oh yeah, and ive noticed that they put in new clips too.

  • @justgottasmilies

    naa mate they're refering to 'lets see how far we've come' in those instances so they showing great feats of the last 100 or so years eg.womens rights, muhammed ali, space landing ect. hope this helps

  • PELE B****!

  • If society was moving any slower, it would be going backwards...

  • @iamapeanut207 We're not already going backwards?

  • @brch2 ... Wait I guess you are right. :)

  • Anyone stupid enough Rob and the boys were thinking of the Mayan Calander while this song was created.... leave.... now.

  • Whilst all these people go on about the world and stuff, I'll just take this second to say...

    Thank you Homestuck for allowing me to listen to such an awesome track. XD

  • i still find it hard to believe that anyone thought that any prediction of when the world ends is ever true. no one knows when it will happen until it happens

    

  • love this song!

  • I don't see why people believe the world is actually ending this year. The Mayans predicted the end of the world on 3 separate occasions. The other two were long before this and it is still around, i'nit?

  • @1Dlover becaus epeople are idiots and will beleive whatever they are told seeing as they are to lazy to look into something themself...

  • @1Dlover Pretty much nobody believes the world is ending this year. Discovery channel and a few other stations all had their own programs about the mayan predictions (and basically proved them wrong). By now the whole thing is just a joke.

  • Pfft I went into the future and am watching this in 2063 c;

  • Say I if you think the world will end in a zombie apocalypse!!!!

  • @TheRaney33 What about "Q"? Can we say "Q" instead of "I"? "Q" is a cooler letter.

  • Theme song for 2012

  • this song was my fav 5 yr agos

  • @armyhobo12 no one is watching in 2013?

  • Superb Band! Reminds me of my childhood!! Off to purchase on iTunes.

  • I didnt come very far. stayed in my pants.....

  • Wow I can't believe I was 12 when i was so crazy about this song. O.o

  • Best song ever.

  • that's why the world is "ending" in 2012, so we can all see how far we've come

  • MB20 4 LIFE

  • They were off by 5 years xD...

  • I absolutely love this song! I love Matchbox Twenty..if only all music could be like this :)

  • Love this song, even now. :)

  • I was listening to this song earlier and right when it said "Let's see how far we've come" I hit a wall and went backwards :(

  • Tosan sends me here! Years ago. :)

  • Did you know angels could sing?

    watch?v=xXRh5ne7xws

  • We haven't come that far. Even though we would like to deny it the world hasn't changed all that much. Wars are waged, people die, people are born, time marches on. And in the end nothing is really all that different than it was before we came. If you look back through history you will be able to see how little things have actually changed. I'm not saying we should stop trying to change the world, make it a better place, I'm just saying we aren't very good at it. Someone fucks it up every time.

  • @blueeyesaf Thats a veeery broad generalization. You broke down recorded history into death, war, and birth and, yes, all of things do continue sadly (I have a cousin staioned in Afghanistan) but humanity has come so very far. We have nuclear power which gives energy to millions of Americans, we are soo close to curing cancer, we invented capitalism and democracy which has been proven to excel. We used to be bumbling oaf's with no civil rights,now, the computer your using was invented30 yearsago

  • @paintballpatriot1 Well if you compare ancient Greece to modern USA you will see many similarities. Yes obviously technology has come very hare but that's not really what I'm talking about. Also I don't know who your talking about when you say "we" invented capitalism and democracy but if your talking about americans they didn't invent either of those. But like I said look up how life was in ancient Greece and the similarities to the modern US are staggering.

  • @blueeyesaf and why are you talking about US alone? does the rest of the world doesnt count? ass

  • @knator22 Well he could have taken the time to compare to the other 191 countries on earth right now but I'm pretty sure he has more important shit to do than pander to you. Who the hell cares what country he compared it too. Stop being so butt hurt, and seriously work on your grammar you sound like an idiot.

  • @Wargod1english is not my mother language, so you could think about that asshole, im pretty tired at this hour, so i dont care if we are fighting or something

    cheers

  • This song and music video proves that not everything in the music scene at the start of the 21st century is crappy.

  • Ok I'm not gay or anything...but Rob Thomas is damn sexy

  • Perfect! I'm in the graduating class of 2012. I'll tell my high school of this idea.

  • i'm in the class of 2012 and i've always thought its wierd that the number after the 20 has matched what grade im in, ex 2004 i was in fourth grade

  • @airbear2799 guess that goes for anyone graduating in the 2000s

  • Comment removed

  • I play this song everyday wen im walking though the halls at school it just fits the way im feeling all the time lol

  • my class chose this song for graduation

  • playing this on december 21st for sure

  • I feel like this could be a good graduation song for 2012.

  • @skipieclifford yes that is what half my class voted for but got voided because class pres didn't like it

  • @Sheepona94 That's shitty, I'm going to try and make this our grad song.

  • @skipieclifford Too bad it's the end of the world! haha... oh that joke just gets old ):

  • @skipieclifford Because this is an original thought...

  • @skipieclifford

    My school's graduating year 12 class sung this song last year for their leavers day ceremony. It was really good. I see why do many people sing this song for their graduations :)

  • @skipieclifford i feel your gay.

  • @AmericaNeedsWeed oh rly? So what if I was?

  • @skipieclifford Does your dad own a gun?

  • @AmericaNeedsWeed Homophobic? Really now? This world has gone to the dogs.

  • @skipieclifford It would suit 06.06.06 for me. As bad as it sounds, that was the date for my graduation. However, after being in college for years, I don't feel High school really helped too much.

  • @skipieclifford Dude, you're brilliant.

  • @skipieclifford Thats my High School's graduation song for the seniors this year

  • @skipieclifford It is mine

  • @skipieclifford LMAO I was thinking the same thing.

  • enough of this"like this if your still watching this in 2012" crap, how about some comments with meaning?

  • 2:10 TeeHee

  • anyone else think the lead singer looks like jensen ackles?

  • @aaronkrieger yeah i see it

  • A song that is against SOPA before it even existed

  • Is it just me, or does this song seem like the sequel to Billy Joel's "We didn't start the Fire"?

  • gives me hope that the world is still gunna be ok !

  • first song that ever got played in my cd player 6 years ago

    memories

  • ชอบชอบ

  • @cold7446 Couldn't agree more.

  • I miss guys being able to paint their nails, and not be "gay". I miss the geeky hats that were in style, that made an impression. I miss the awesome music. I miss being able to listen to this and not being told im odd for listening to it! GO MATCHBOX TWENTY!

  • @rosiematthew guys painting their nails has always been gay

  • I'm pretty sure what he's trying to get through is the world will eventually end. So be ready for it and live for the moment, cause you could not have another one.

  • IMO this isn't as good as their first 3 albums, but hey... Not much is.

  • Scholars from various disciplines have dismissed the idea of such cataclysmic events occurring in 2012. Professional Mayanist scholars state that predictions of impending doom are not found in any of the extant classic Maya accounts, and that the idea that the Long Count calendar "ends" in 2012 misrepresents Maya history and culture.Astronomers and other scientists have rejected the proposed events as pseudoscience, stating that they are contradicted by simple astronomical observations.

  • I just noticed this video is biased against republicans. Not a single republican in this video even though we had two republican presidents.

  • I don't think this song is literally about the end of the world. I think it's about what the world's population has really actually done for the better of man. It's just a message that if we continue to be selfish, we'll EVENTUALLY (could mean in 100000000 years) destroy the world. The "start of the end of the world", can be one day of many and technically speaking, everything begins to die the second it comes into life. Endings are inevitable- but we shouldn't worry ourselves with estimates.

  • who will be watching this on December 21
