  • One of my favourite's by them. <33333333333

  • I meant that some songs are personal to the artist. (in my original comment)You never know what a song is "about" . Different people interpret things different ways also. The song could be personal to you on a whole different level. Either way EVERCLEAR FUCKING ROCKS!!!

  • sorry for my mistake i meant to say last MARCH

  • last month(nearly a whole year ago), i got the brilliant idea to lie to my pshichiatrist my parents took me to for adderall,now its been three weeks since i used so feeling hoprful, but the pshycoligicaly tourmenting addiction is too hard too talk about, told my parents im an addict and they stopped filling the prescriptions and now going to this outpatient thing. life can get better i guess

  • ADHD AND ADD are convenient labels to get lazy parents off the hook when kids react to their lack of parenting. Medication is a quick fix. It's also addictive. If you don't want to spend time with YOUR kids, don't have them.

  • I'm on both sides, the parents that use it as an excuse to not have to deal with kids being kids is messed up. But in cases like my little brother, if it wasnt for those medications he would still be getting held back. I'm very proud of him since he's been taking them.

  • Does anyone else notice that the girl characterized in this song is a direct and indirect allusion to literal amphetamines? Listen to the lyrics. Fucking love this song.

  • jenkembombs as an adult that suffered with ADHD since before it exsisted and being told my whole life i should do better yet noone understanding why i didnt excel with a high iq because i couldnt pay attention correctly. i wish their waqs meds when i was growing up maybe things would have been different. so dont talk about shit you dont understand.

  • @ChaoticWanderer Hear hear.

  • @ChaoticWanderer same here! had the smae problem growing up

  • Thumbs up if you've known a carbon copy of the girl described in this song, or at least something close.

  • I have spoken through emails with Art and I know who he writes his songs for..... that is why I love him so much.

  • @unorthodoxmuse Please share! Who does he write music for? His daughter?

    I'm jealous! Though I did exchange hellos with him at a rock concert in early '07. It was out in the vineyards of Veneta, Oregon. He was drunk for almost the entire show, though. :/ His performance was amazing, regardless. A day I'll never forget as long as I live.

  • I have ingested more than 3000 x 30mg Ritalin pills. I always listened to this track when i was tweaked

  • I made it 420 likes @ 420 ftmfw!!!!!!

  • 13 people will never understand

  • everclear - most underrated band ever

    i swear i think i'm the only person at my school who's heard of this band

  • thumbs up if amphetamines make you feel amazing

  • @3521soda I fucking love amphetamine.

    and I hope my doctor never takes me off of them. I love that shit.

  • i have great taste in music

  • @combichrist19 i already know because your username is combichrist and i now have respect for you

  • one of the 90's greats

  • what happened to this kind of music... Everclear, Eve6, Lit, Sugar Ray... all the good bands. Now we have shit like jonas borothers and justin beiber... :(

  • now listen to watch the world die

  • Yeah. I love the 90's.

  • I looooooooooooove this. That is all.

  • My favorite.

  • Awesome shit.

  • this song reminds me of myself. the marriage, drugs, etc.

  • I fuckin LOVE everclear. Where the hell did they go?! :( If Art's back in PDX, I need to know so I can check out the local bars. I bet he's doing underground again.

  • @3milyc4ndy actually they are going to be here in INDY at rib america in September!

  • @sydnie3 HOLY CRAP you are lucky. I envy you..../sadface

  • @TheOlympiaLowlife somewhat, but they give different kinds of rushes for extremely different durations.

  • best song..

  • my favorite everclear song

  • This songs reminds me of the winter of '98. Hell of a song. Too bad main stream music is a train wreck

  • This song brings back memeories of hangin out in the middle of fields mid summer and chillin with friends durin the mid 90's :) good times

  • @SlyNicolai c'mon live a little.

  • I LOVE AMPHETAMINE 

  • Obviously this is a song about a person who is given ADHD medicine, or speed. Her dosage is probably too high, or she takes too much because she is addicted. When I used to be on Vyvanse, I would listen to this song over and over and over again.

  • The song is whatever it means to you. It could be about Adderal you know or possibly ritalin. Wow.

  • @BeckyThePoet actually, Ritalin isn't an amphetamine, it's methylphenidate :)

  • @crispinchicken it does basically the same thing though, speed is speed, whether is adderall, ritalin, coke or straight up meth.

  • @TheOlympiaLowlife not at all man if you ever actualy tried them you would not say that

  • @TheOlympiaLowlife meth is nasty due to the raw ingrediants being unavailable.

  • @Cusche2high2drive wow ,blow my mind now.

  • @crispinchicken I knew Adderal and Ritalin where different chemically. I was just saying that people tend to over analyze meanings of songs. Thank you for reminding me the chemical name. I didn't really remember that one off of the top of my head. Every song is different to different people. Also medications effect everyone differently too. I just think people should try to stay open minded when deciphering someone elses lyrics. But that is only my opinion.

  • @BeckyThePoet

    Theres no such thing as medical amphetamines. They should never be called "medications". I absolutely hate when these fucked up doctors give children amphetamines because there personality isn't perfectly normal.

    Little johnny cant focus in school, and he's inattentive. Here give him this nuerotoxic addictive drug. I hate the parents who buy into that bullshit even more then the corrupt doctors pushing it to kids.

    ADHD isn't even fucking real, not even in the least bit.

  • @JenkemBOMBS it's real. It's just that the cause of it isn't natural

  • @2uMRAsh

    Good argument, I like it. All you have to say is, "Its real".

    Heres my argument. Its not real.

  • @JenkemBOMBS Then what would you suggest for a child with the attention span of a gnat and cant sit still for longer than a 30 seconds? All it does is calms the kid down so hes not disruptive in class and can focus on the task at hand. And how are they fucked up if they actually help the kid? The only other thing that works well which is cannabis, is illegal.

    You sound like nyou're regurgitating what mommy and daddy said so go read a book and learn something.

  • @DsWill719 look at the big picture. there have always been kids who are too high strung. but that is part of the beauty of life- everyone is unique. we are not supposed to all be the same. Nowadays drugs like aderol and ritalin are used to try and shape children into something that they are not and it is just unnatural. Let kids be kids.

  • @182bha I ttotaly agree to let kids be kids. But think of it like this without ritalin or adderol your kids not doing well in school, hes getting bad grades and being sent to the principles office a couple times a week. With it your kid is now passing all their subjects and is no longer getting in trouble. It's not shaping them or anything like it just letting them or helping them get through school with some added help. I mean wouldn't you want your kid to do the best they could in school?

  • @DsWill719 if i end up having kids, i'd like to think that i would pay enough attention to them that I could assist them with their schoolwork without putting them on any drugs.

  • @JenkemBOMBS Ritalin isn't a amphetamine. It's actually a mild version of cocaine .

  • @JenkemBOMBS thx dude finally someone with my opinion... lets kick these damn doctors ass

  • @JenkemBOMBS You are awesome

  • @JenkemBOMBS SHUT UP. If you don't like the song gtfo... goon.

  • @JenkemBOMBS

    "ADHD isn't even fucking real, not even in the least bit."

    sorry.....? good joke :)

  • @JenkemBOMBS

    That is exactly happened to me

  • @JenkemBOMBS The name says it all.. Attention Deficiency Hyperactivity Disorder.. PAY MORE ATTENTION TO YOUR KIDS.. THEY WANT YOU TO CARE FOR THEM... Not to drug them out so they live in your heartless world... They want your love... ITS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE!

  • @JenkemBOMBS Are you a psychiatrist? Or even a psychologist? No? Then shut up.

  • @JenkemBOMBS well your very ignorant because you dont have it, stop trying to be a doctor your not one...plus adderal has helped me learn more things than you will ever know

  • @lukemich12 "plus adderal has helped me learn more things than you will ever know" wtf? Adderall is 4 types of amphetamine salts, its basically meth.

  • @slicedcelery dont bash it till you try it

  • @JenkemBOMBS ritalin they give kids 4 adhd isnt amphetamines ya plank do ur researh b4 spouting bolloks!!!

  • @JenkemBOMBS i feel like most of these things like add and adhd are just diferent clusters of personality traits that they band together to tell you that something is wrong with you. so you buy their meds i guess and have to spend money to see a dr. the fda needs to really crack down on shit like this.

  • @crispinchicken Actually, Ritalin will make you fail a drug screen for amphetamines, and is still technically part of the amphetamine family.

  • @crispinchicken methylphenidate is a weaker form of amphetamines. they are close in structure and family.

  • The 12 that disliked this video are smoking Crystal Meth.

  • @Farcry18 Way to be original, champ.

  • @SK8TV94 Why thank you good sir!

  • @Farcry18 Haha anytime :)

  • me and my mom blast this song in our car everywere we go. we r in love with this song

  • not about meth, about a girl beautifully fucked up, like the high after a fat line.

  • this is a drug made from tears. mothers cry, lives are lost, and i still live with the memories of a terrible beauty. so perfect in its horror, such a sad, sad, song to make me smile. emmy, you were without peers, i miss you still.

  • this is a drug made from tears. mothers cry, lives are lost, and i still live with the memories of a terrible beauty. so perfect in its horror, such a sad, sad, song to make me smile. emmy, you were without peers, i miss you still.

  • I love that the most approved comments have nothing to do with this song or band

    Though I agree.. Nickelback SUCKS

    That said, great song from Everclear.

  • so bitter sweet

  • this song just gave me a boner

  • i fukking love everclear!!!!

  • Amys my girl but I cant find her very often.

  • This song could be the theme for all the poor messed up strung out girls who walk the stroll under the train up the street. Opposite coast different decade same story.

  • Give me Everclear, mixed with Nirvana, and a splash of Sublime on the rocks.

    :D punny, no?

    Awesome bands, yes!

    XOXOX

  • @justbridget13 hell yes! your tastn in music is perfect and awesome! 

  • @justbridget13 HELL YEA!

  • i dunno..but negative comments is a waste of space...everclear is "wonderful" and missed ..art...hope you ok,bless your wife and child...love,aumsville

  • fuck I used to love this band!! Brings back great memories!!

  • This was my favorite song from the very first album I owned. Brings me way back to hear this tune.

  • Everclear sum up every feeling of depression and hatred in every song. Emotion like that is priceless

  • Wow. I love this song, so very, much(:

  • Wow there are a lot of people jumping on the nickleback-bashing-bandwagon huh? lmao. Why do people insist on talking about useless shit in the comments? I wish they had made a video for this song, it was my favorite from So Much For The Afterglow, but life goes on.

  • @AeternalisNoctem Yeah, no offense but im jumping on the nickelback bashingwagon too. I miss the ninetys when music was this good. bands like everclear and also the grunge stuff out of seattle even the techno stuff was better then. Maybe im just old.

  • I see the words nickelback and i feel sick.. and yeah why are we talking about them. waste of f life. everclear is good stufff mang

  • @welltraveledunicorn thumbs down for saying mang

  • haha you could never compare these guys with shite like Nickelback.. nickelback sucks balls!! Everclear are an amazing band thats have there own unique sound...

  • Why are people talking about nickelback?

  • okay, why does everybody think nickelback sucks? this song is everclear, so how the balls did that other band get involved? everclear is good, yes. nickelback is decent, yes. i really think that neither band is better...you just need a different mood for both... so please, if you have remarks for other bands...go to their songs and say that, if you're ballsy enough.

  • I love this song, first band I ever got into, possibly the first cd I ever bought.

  • Woo! i havent listened to everclear in forever :D i forgot how awesome Art was.

  • she lost her name but found a new one :)

  • To the Highest comments: I have always hated Nickleback and always adored Everclear.

  • GGRR!! I LOVE THESE GUYS!!!!!

  • @hubbabubbamax000 I bet dude

  • Nickelback can fall off a bridge.

  • 1:27

  • I was always under the impression that Everclear was one of those gay Nickelback-esque post-grunge bands.

    I have been pleasantly surprised, but they seemed to have piqued on their first album.

  • prop my fav everclear song

  • everclear weren't that well known in the uk,but i remember when i was introduced to them,they rock!i was gobsmacked when i heard this song cos it was like it was describing me-deja vu!i have v pale skin,light green eyes,i was married for 3 years then divorced and moved west in the uk.i really was fucked up in my teens and liked my 'amphetamine' and had a real party girl reputation.i also had a teen drink problem and went sober.i love it when u can relate to a song!anyways enuff of my ramblings.x

  • shes perfect in a fucked up way!! great song great lyrics!

  • ive seen everclear 3 times in concert and even gotto meet the man. got his autograph on a dollar bill,cd, and my shirt. the group is awesome.ieven got to shake his hand. good down to earth man.

  • @forevermylady1990 .... I would have rolled that dollar bill up, chopped up a line, on the cd, and regretted whatever came next...lol...I probably would have put the shirt, in the washing machine, w/bleach... and hated myself...nice story, good for you... I totally believe you... haven't been there, but, I've had special moments like that... thanks for sharing...

  • Oh...i get this song, so it's about the drugs not a real girl? right?

  • @blueblaze873

    what?!

  • are you retarded?

  • Which one of thier hits makes you wonder... hmmm!

  • my last girlfriend sucks!

  • @gonpostal666 just so you are aware... they are talking about Meth-amphetamine... you know? crystal meth...angel dust.. ice... whatever you call it. A very HIGHLY addictive drug that some people actually DO wish to get off. And being addicted to crystal meth is not something to be proud of... btw.

  • Um, angel dust is not a form of meth, it's a completely different drug all together. Methamphetamine: Meth, speed, ice, dope, crank, crystal...

  • @Coronicus angel dust???? = pcp moron

  • @Coronicus are you sure its not regular amphetamines there is a (fairly big) difference

  • @Coronicus are you sure it's not just regular amphetamines?

  • @Coronicus then the song would be called methamphetamine. amphetamine exists you know.

  • @Coronicus just so you are aware, meth is different than dust. Get your facts straight... btw

  • @Coronicus angel dust is pcp not meth

  • @Coronicus no shit

  • @Coronicus Angel Dust is actually PCP..just saying.

  • @dmarod there's no need for that shit

  • @Taythatguitardude said like one who has been there! Right on!

  • @Coronicus angel dust is pcp. yah try gettin busted with 4 tenths of red crystal on you.

  • @stratocaster102 there's red crystal meth?

  • @Taythatguitardude yah its called pank

  • umm i dont think song is actually just about meth it is also about girl. why would he say SHE could have been happy in another life.. its about a girl who is addicted to it yes. and dont hate on everclear. if u dont likem dont listen

  • Comment removed

  • @rosesxkill You, being incapable of properly contracting 'you' and 'are', are the moron.

  • So much for the afterglow FTW. Everclears best album. (not that the others arent fantastic... cuz they are!) And I absolutely LOVE this song.

  • :[

    this song makes me think about driving through cactuses in a car that runs on no gas. and my last girlfriend.

  • does any one know the name of the song by everclear (on the so much for the afterglow album)

    it goes "they cant hurt you unless you let them"

    I can't find it. My cd album is old on cracked so i cant hear it now TT~TT

  • You're thinking of "One Hit Wonder". btw Hi from the UK! lol

  • @5ta46az3 its One Hit Wonder

  • One Hit Wonder

  • Not at all they had a lot more songs that were good.

  • Dumbest comment of all time.

  • The Song 5ta46az3 was asking about was One Hit Wonder... I love EverClear They have a lot of Great songs!

  • The song she was asking about was One Hit Wonder.....

  • what an amazing song.

  • Is this band still together?
