  • @HesEminemHes50Cent so do i

  • the girl is pretty

  • @val1988 tell me about it

  • The mere fact that rap artist are mentioned in the same sentence as Blues Traveler is assinine.Can any of them play a musical instrument? I challenge Eminem to play the four guitar chords in this song.Listen to rap all you want but to compare it to those who have real musical abilities doesen't make much sense.Yelling into a microphone with a computerized drum track is not quite the same as years of learning and mastering the guitar ,harmonica or piano.

  • @MrBuc128 so based off that singers arent shit either, they use no iinstruments, whtne houston celine dion have no abilities, rap is music just because you dont like it dont mean its trash just say it isnt your cup of tea...

    anyway love this song, been on so many movie soundtracks lol

  • hey john,I need a couple of S+W 9 mills can ya hook me up?

  • gotta love the fuckin bandolier of harmonicas. a skinnier man would look like he was wearing drapes made of fuckin' harmonicas. lol

  • And they were fuckin epic in the flick "King Pin"

  • Do not know if it is the same guy or not, if so, they actually played on an episode of Rosanne @ the bowling alley.

    Hell of a harmonica player - good band all together!

  • @Suitt2010  It is, and he was also in Blues Brothers 2000

  • This is one of the Blues Traveller's tunes, I love it, I hope you like it. That's why I was asking about Steve checking out his cd's for the disc.

  • Why do I have to think about Peter Griffin?

  • 2:46 Bombardier not bomba dear.

  • loved this on rosanne

  • What was your nutrition intake like to gain? My boyfriend is skinny too and wants to put on weight/muscle. He's scared that if he does the program he'll lose instead of gain, but from your video I see it's possible to gain...anything you could pass on would be SO helpful! Thanks!!!!

  • @Saramarie4484 weird u mention it on a blues traveler vid, but tell him maybe buy a few barbells. just lift and do situps and you bulk up but stay lean. btw dont let him take supplements, they cause kidney failure and dont do jack fuck.

  • Great Song!!! Checkout the new war song on Youtube "Spilling Our Blood For War" then buy it on iTunes.

  • Niggas armed to the teeth wit harmonicas

  • i cant belive the singer hated this song he never wanted to hear this ever again ><

  • yea i totally agree with fargnbastage. theres so many artist's out there who have ZERO talent and only get by because A) there hot and B) they have good songwriters keeping them on the charts. i bet if half of the artist's out there had to write there own material that they would vanish like dust in the wind.

  • They should have had her to play Dorothy instead of Judy Garland.

  • badass!

  • cool song. 

  • looks like counting crows on stage

  • @hyrulesurfer1 There is no better 90s band then the Counting Crows! It's a good band, I respect the song, but PLEASE don't compare a one hit wonder to a band as groundbreaking as the Crows.

  • @TheGuuzMan Dude - if you think these guys are one hit wonders, you need some serious music history lessons

  • @darrelldotson Sir, you need to put your fan love aside and look at the fact that Four was their only mainstream friendly album. They may have made more good music, but that doesn't make them any more then one hit wonders.

  • classic music never happen again

  • im learning how to play harmonica for this song

  • Used to love this song.

  • CLASSIC VIDEO.THE 90S ROCKED.

  • Man.. Dorothy is HAWT!!!!!

  • Is the make believe front man supposed to be Adam from counting crows? is that a nod or a dig?

  • This is such a great dance song. I love it. Thanks x.

  • another classic hits..

    

  • the concept of the video and song is awesome!

  • Best solo ever for any kind of song...so awesome!

  • This sound had me running around asking "Where did this epic music go? Why am I left with rap in the 2000s?"

  • @Alcatroph not all rap is bad. I'm an older guy that likes older music but Eminem is alright to listen to.

  • @kanaede I'll admit that some rap is okay, but those rap songs that are good are a minority in the grand scheme of things.

  • @Alcatroph i completely agree with tht statement most rap sucks i cant stand rap music at most i like maybe 15 rap songs

  • @mrkillerrok I'm in the same boat. Some rap I can tolerate. For example, I think NWA, Easy-E, and Dr. Dre are really good. As for pple like Eminem sucks ass. I find it very hard to take a rapper serious who names himself after a fucking candy. Not only that, but change a few letters in his name and you get Enema. Again, I have a difficult time seeing someone as a bad ass when their name is a close reference to a process that involves shooting water up your fucking ass. LMFAO! :-)

  • @lhart99 NWA, Easy E, Dr Dre, Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, Grandmaster Flash and the furious 5 and many many more have rap songs that are just great. I am an open minded person, i dont consider Rap as Crap or anything. Any genre, If i like the song i like it. Now Eminem is not bad at all. He can be serious as well as funny in his songs which is awesome.

    By the way, I love this song.

  • @damjam18 i agree

  • @lhart99 Don't talk about what you don't know. Eminem has been hailed as a lyrical genius, BEFORE he went mainstream. He's a legend in the industry, and check your facts, because Eminem is a play on his initials. Marshall Mathers = M and M = Eminem. Don't be an ignorant idiot, check your facts, and don't make things up about his name in order to insult the man (including the "enima" bullshit).

  • @TheGuuzMan I'm entitled to my opinion, just like you are. And If I think he sucks ass; then, I'm entitled to say that. Easy-E, and Snoop dog are lyrical geniuses, but not Eminem. Just because an artist sells millions of doesn't make him great. My case and point...look at Britney Spears, she's a no talent bitch and she's sold millions of albums. You want to talk about legit talent? Then, lets talk about pple like The Beatles or Bob Dylan. They are real lyrical geniuses.

  • @lhart99 But Easy-E and Snoop were innovators, I never said they were bad. But you were making the argument that he wasn't talented, when he has critical acclaim and the respect of many great rappers (including Snoop). I didn't say he was good because of his legion of fans and millions sold, that doesn't determine an artist. His critical acclaim and out of the box thinking, as well as his wicked flow make him good. He is a modern Dylan or Elvis, he is the leader of the youth, just as they were.

  • @TheGuuzMan No worries man, this just all a big understanding, you know? My whole point is, that in my opinion, Eminem is just another rapper who made it big. I agree with u about Easy-E and Snoop not only did they think outside of the box but they changed the whole fuckin' rap scene. Eminem, does think out of the box..I'll give him that 'cause I've heard enough of his songs to know that he raps about crazy shit that no one else raps about......

  • @TheGuuzMan Ran out of room for the rest of my comment. Anyway, Eminem rapped from a different angle than a lot of rappers. But, to me pple like Easy-E, NWA, and Dylan did more than just write songs that blew pple away they changed the whole dam scope on music. & Even though Elvis was not a lyrical genius like Dylan or Easy-E Elvis still changed the face of music...dam. I need to finish this up in a 3rd comment...sorry I'm writing a dam book.

  • @TheGuuzMan ok, so I'll end my argument on this one. So, all I'm saying is that Eminem does bring a new spin on rap. I just don't see him as a revolutionary like Easy-E or snoop. I guess only time will tell if what he did for rap will become legendary. I'm not trying to dump on your opinion, bro. I just like 2 fuck around sometimes, which was my whole point about making fun of his name.

  • @Alcatroph It's gone my friend. Let us embrace what we have left and hope for better music yet to come!

  • @Alcatroph this was awesome, all we got now is Katy Perry running around singing California Girls and other non singers chocking up the airwaves

  • everything was good in the 90s

  • is really really coooool if you can feel that kind of thing dude

  • SEE YOUUU AT LOLLA BLUES TRAVELER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BRINGIN MY HARMONICA

    XXXXXXOOOOOOOOOOOO

  • After years of not knowing what the heck this song was called, I finally found it. All throughout the 90s and occasionally in the 2000s, I always loved it but wondered what it was. =D

  • Someone thought their guitarist was actualy a girl?!?! LMAO

  • i was lost for a second till i looked down and read the comments. cause i was like "why is the singer skinny?" eep.. guess was being a little slow... =(

  • can somebody ppst this with the Beavis and Butthead commentarry

  • Who's the girl that play's Dorethy ??? think i've seen her in something B4 ??

  • I love this video. It is such a feel good song. Thanks for posting. x.

  • All I can say about this song is forget the video, when you are fighting or not happy with your lover, get in the car 1) crank this song up 2) then sing at the top of your lungs to each other, believe it or not you will make up, always.

  • Hell yea ! ! !

    is it my freshmen year again.....

    takes me back

  • Awesome video... I love the album version... but this rocks either...

    It is an excellent tribute to Milli Vanilli, isn't it?

  • I was looking for this song so longgggggggggg....

    LOVE IT!!!!!!!

  • they see him trolling......(Sheldon66)

  • I find it hilarious that people actually write things that make them sound and look like complete idiots. If you are going to make a comment about a song, at least pick one you like so that you dont have to make us all more stupid for reading your stupid comments in the first place. Inmature lil pills themselves. SHELDON66, God Bless you.

  • saw these guys in concert last summer, amazingly fun. great stage presence. even better music

  • I dedicate this video to all posers. Look at who's really playing the music and who's just dressed nice, lip syncing

  • amazing frickin song

  • i feel like this song is about seeing past what is on the surface and seeing the whole person, and once you do call me and if you can't get away cuz you're holding me down

  • John Popper is fat freak!!! I remember watching a documentary on the Rolling Stones and they were on tour and happened to have Blues Traveller open up a few shows for them....anyway.....John Popper wanted to do a duet with Mick (much like many of his open acts do). Mick laughed and said the Popper can go f_ _ _k himself!! That was hilarious!!!! I do like this song....but Popper is a bit of a freak!

  • @Sheldon66 well arent we misinformed. if you havent been following the popper, he has lost nearly 200 lbs. he is not longer fat. sooooooo. FUCK YOU ASSHOLE. John Popper is the shit, and ignorant thinking of people like you is not going to change that

  • @420991 ....no I don't follow the pill popper Popper!!! Good for him for losing 200 pounds of lard!! It's about time he lost that weight...Oh by the way...K.M.A. you dime store freak!!!! John Popper is the shit???? Are you serious? Get with the program and come back with something "knowledgable" to say when you have something to say....We'll all be richer for it!

  • @Sheldon66

    I don't get why the need to get ugly with people. They didn't get that way with you. Maybe you should try being just a bit nicer, or ignore.

    Peace

  • @TheSusiyp ....excuse me?? Someone tells me that Popper lost his lard and then tells me to basically eff myself?? So what do you mean "they didn't get that way with me??" Read the comments below...who cares if I cut down John Popper? I just simply made a comment about his character.....and by the way John Popper can get ugly with me! I would simply laugh at him!

  • @Sheldon66 ...Think it is time to go back and take a crash course on grammar fuck stick. Maybe you should learn to use proper spelling and punctuation before asking someone to say something "knowledgable". I mean seriously there is a built in spell check for fuck's sake. Also John Popper is amazing and I would love to see you get your ugly fat ass on stage and jam out a harmonica like he does.

  • @zombiebyheart I didn't see the original comment, but please - do chill out. Knowledgable is a perfectly acceptable alternate spelling of knowledgeable

  • @howbigis1gb Absolutely !

  • love this song remember watching this everyday before kindergarten

  • HORNY!!

  • Ken Ober, R.I.P.

  • Is it bomba dear or is it bombardier (as he is referring to a pilot?)

  • @BRUCERYCH Bombardier

  • Love it! Huge BT fans here, first BT song I ever heard and it made me look into them deeper.

  • Happy song when i listen to it make me happy.

  • i miss the 90's......

  • This was my favorite song when I was little. It brings back memories.

  • Anybody know what this song's about?

  • hey werent these guys one hit wonders... just several times lol

  • @jason13204 Blues Traveler was and is a great band, and they would still be a huge presence in the music industry, except that John Popper is a libertarian and second amendment advocate and he refuses to travel or perform in any state or country where he can't carry a concealed handgun. Awesome dude.

  • Actually, the Drivers License looked almost EXACTLY like a Kansas license from the late 80's! Lol! Not that it matters, just saying.

  • I love how the Kansas DL in the vid looks nothing like a Kansas license would look in the mid 90s (or the currently for that matter). But, they only have a 1/50 chance of people in the states noticing that, and even less than that since the state's so small and may or may not see the vid. I miss 90's music :(

  • I remember I use to get so annoyed with this jackass on the stage who kept jumping around the whole video.

  • The concept of the video was to bring to light how the entertainment industry is obsessed with looks, rather than talent. John is fat and not attractive but can play the shit out of the harmonica and makes great music, but puts a more attractive singer and band on stage as puppets while John and the rest of the band perform.

    That's the actual concept behind the video and is so damn true. Just look at all the talentless morons making music and millions of dollars. Not a grain of talent in them.

  • @fargnbastage i think he's attractive!

  • @fargnbastage Dick Tracy FTW!!!!!!!!!!

  • @fargnbastage It's a spin on The Wizard of Oz you idiot, the concept is to elude the audience of the real identity of the stage actually being a fake, just like the WIzard, open your eyes, don't play into your propaganda of the industry being corrupt, you dumbass!

  • @zsteele15 Fail!

    only a fool would try to deny this beautiful piece of art some of its purpose by supposing that someone has felt incorrectly while interpreting this piece. And if you do feel so strongly about his opinions, his emotions, what did you really think you would accomplish by attempting to slam him so maliciously, even name-calling him as a grammer school student would do?

    Didn't your parents teach you better? I bet your mother is proud.

    You need to take a chill pill bro.

  • @BeardedBuddhist Who's denying the artistic simplicity of the video, I clearly stated a fact of what the concept was and how his interpretation of the video was incorrect. The point of slamming him was to indicate him being one-dimensional on his views, why do you care so strongly about my opinions anyway? Apparently it holds water if you're commenting on it, so tell me what the REAL interpretation of the video is, due to the fact that you're a musical/video critique line of work, please do....

  • @fargnbastage I think your concepts are a little off you idiot, this movie is not to fault the music industry, it's a spin from the Wizard of Oz you moron! The band on the stage represents the Wizard who is just a figment, not something real, the backstage band is what represents the Wizard, I think your conspiracies and your faulty concepts need to stick to yourself because obviously you're very ill-advised, so please stop talking dumbass!!! OWNED!!!

  • @zsteele15 Dude whatever he said I'm sure it really aint a big freakin deal. Instead of spending 10 minutes replying to him, go and get laid by Dorothy or somethin. She's hot right? lol, (btw this aint my account, it's someone else's And I'm a guy)

  • @katielojo1 Haha, you're probably right, I actually did waste about 10 minutes bitching about him!

  • That girl with a fake ID was fit, who was she?

  • @mta89kurd Her name is Diana Marquis

  • I was 6 years old when I heard this song, and I still love it today. God love the 90's! :)

  • @redrider199 Lol. The first time I saw this video, I'm like "WTF is Howard Stern doing where John Popper should be?"

  • thank you Blues Traveler...

  • kicking and screaming tot me about the beastage or blues traveler

  • sexiest Dorothy ever !!!

  • I'm glad this video's here, but it's really dark and kind of grainy (which is a shame because the video's so cool and "Dorothy" is so beautiful). Does anybody know where I can see a more clear version?

  • @Leehofooks i remember watching this in the UK when it was released and this is how i remember it on tv, unfortunately.

  • @metalli07 I saw it on TV back in the 90's, too. I don't think it was this dark, and I know it wasn't grainy. Even here on YouTube, you can see a couple short clips of it in another one of their music videos (Hook), and it's not like this.

  • good point i cant stop my feet lol great tune

  • that chick is hot

  • Love this song!

  • Adore this song!

  • I love the concept of the video.. hahahahahaha... Looks could be decieving...

  • I am Soo doing this at my Senior year talent show.

  • Video does not fit the song. lol. They should have shown the real singer, he is awesome.

  • This music video just dont look like it fits the music. Looks more like some 80's rock band.

  • that man can play the shit out of that harmonica

  • I grew up on this song, and I love it just as much as I did when I was little!

  • who does johns part in this video?

  • @ raiboy79

    normally i'd make a comment about the use of the word groovy, but it just fits with this song. it is an awesome song, and i love listening to it

  • I've been listening to this song since I was 7 and I still love it :) (especially the harmonica part!) :) Thanx so much for posting!

  • You Know those songs you hear that just put a huge smile on your face and you cant help but grin? This is one for me!

  • This has been my all time favorite song for 15 years. I first saw the video when I was 15 and I was totally hooked

  • im not talking shit, well actually i am but all i have to say is that this is a style of music brits could never develop....its all american baby

  • Classic, brings back some memories with brown bottles!
