Streetlight Manifesto - One foot on the gas, one foot in the

[zabbadahun]

Remember to all who nay say I am sure we all have a 9mm and a 3 piece suit >:3

[TheWarnerSister]

Remember the swine flu thing? When we were in line to get shots for like two hours, my brother had this song on his iPod and he let me listen. I just remebered this song now and looked it up, and GUESSWHATILOVEIT.

[AFatedCoincidence]

Am I the only one who thinks that someone could honestly make a logically-moving musical using only Streetlight Manifesto songs? I'm not sure whether this song would be part of the end, or the middle of the first act, th- *shot for rambling*

[DeadWPG]

I want this to be played at my funeral instead of all that organ crap.

[xRetroismx]

That trumpet.

[Shadowbunnyjedi]

@xRetroismx couldn't have said it better

[ABetterYesterday]

@SuperSexySalmon21 I was actualy gonna use it for a band name ages ago but decided against it. You can totally steal it if you would like!

[LikeTotallyButtons]

@Abetteryesterday

Now I really want to do that. :*(

[XxVinylsxX]

the beginning of this song reminds me so much of the Red Hot Chili Peppers and then it goes into something like nothing before and then it becomes completely Streetlight. Awesome song. :P

[BubbleRapOwns]

I make sure this song is the first one I hear in the morning.

[DBRidah]

why do all the top comments always have some grammar or spelling problem? learn you to raed..

[musicxbreaker]

Best Song from streetlight :) LOVE IT

[light0em0up]

lol figure it out, if you dislike this song, your probly blind deaf and retarded

[LOKIUNCIA]

@light0em0up So, Helen Keller Disliked this song 16 times? Makes sense.

[manwarcow]

everyone was laughing when we said we had it made

[DBRidah]

probably the only band where the Trumpet player gets laid on the daily

[BinaryRaven]

@DBRidah That's actually quite common in Ska.

[the100mints]

@DBRidah i can see that happening

[94BajaKid]

WE MIGHT JUST MAKE IT AFTER ALL!

[thebanana215]

fuck yeea street light is the shit!!!!!!

[MuzikMakesMeHappy214]

cant fucking wait to seee them again on august second :DDDD

[Deathwhisperer13]

great band!



[DirtyPunk80]

why is the picture of The Sams when it's a Streetlight Manifesto song???

[shaneshaneshane94]

@DirtyPunk80 the guy who uploads these videos is spronsering his band the sams

[Gavmac333]

15 people got laughed at when they said they had it made.

[helldemon618]

goddamn i hate the fact that i did not go to see these guys when i had the chance ;___;

legends...

[TheBiebHater]

@helldemon618 they are touring with reel big fish atm idk if they are heading near you but I mean just tryin to help a bruddah out cus it would be killer to see them

[ninjadude12346]

dude the title somehow ran into the description wtf? lol streetlight kicks epic ass

[deetswerdna]

completly epic.

[Slaytallidethrax1]

i thought it was "one foot on the gas, one foot in the grave", not "one foot on the gas, one foot in the"

[manwarcow]

@Slaytallidethrax1 get the fuck outa my vid

[Slaytallidethrax1]

@manwarcow are you asking for a chalaaaange?!?

[chenodunkelz789]

this song is like crack for your ears, you just cant get enough!!

[321DARE]

dont know what there saying! but i like it!

[ghostoo666]

@321DARE "insert entire song lyrics in this comment"

lol but it can't be that hard just a higher bpm than average songs ^^

[TheGreggells1]

Streetlight will always be up there for my favorite bands for sure.

[Joeywojcio]

@TheGreggells1 I agree.

[ABetterYesterday]

I'm buying white canvas shoes, writing on the right one "One foot on the gas..." and on the left "One foot in the grave."

[Oreoreogirl]

@ABetterYesterday ou can jsut write on the white top of converse shoes too

[ABetterYesterday]

@Oreoreogirl I never have enough money for Converse, I totally would do as you suggested if I had $90 laying around. Hahaha. XD

[manwarcow]

@ABetterYesterday i got my cons high tops for 32$ on sale

[ABetterYesterday]

@manwarcow Luckyyy!!! Haha.

[nazukum2]

@ABetterYesterday

Where would you get those?

[ABetterYesterday]

@nazukum2 Unicorn Island.

Where else would I get them?

Target bro.

[Conchobear]

@ABetterYesterday That really is an awesome idea. I might want to do that too. The only problem is where to write it? and how big would the letters be?

[ABetterYesterday]

@Conchobear Well, if the shoes are white, and if they're like, hi-tops or something, you can write the words on the outer ankle parts. Haha. Or, alternatively, on the toe part of the shoes.

[Dem640]

@ABetterYesterday grey hightop converse work relly good too

[MegaPictureShow]

@ABetterYesterday That's awesome! I actually just painted a pair of my white canvas shoes with all of my favorite ska bands logos!

[MrLuiizMc]

@ABetterYesterday i want 999999 pairs!

[MiniMikeGillette]

@MrLuiizMc What are you a centipede??????

[basshead160]

@ABetterYesterday i totally bought 2 hats for 5 bucks at walmart and wrote some cool stuff on them

[ABetterYesterday]

@basshead160 That's sweet dude. Unfortunately, Wal-Mart doesn't exist in Australia :c

[basshead160]

@ABetterYesterday no kidding eh?

[MrBLACKJACK766]

@ABetterYesterday u sir are brilliant

[ABetterYesterday]

@MrBLACKJACK766 I think you mean ma'am. c:

[RyanFalls]

@ABetterYesterday How about you write "The Gas" on the bottom of one shoe and "The Grave" on the side of the other? Just so it's a little bit more clever.

[macgregorcd]

@RyanFalls I think it would make more sense to put "On the Gas" and "In the Grave," as that complete the phrase better.

[HaydenBayden6]

@ABetterYesterday white canvas shoes at walmart: $4.99. assorted fabric markers $9.99. the look on my streetlight fan friends faces when they saw your idea on my feet... priceless

[ABetterYesterday]

@HaydenBayden6 Forever wishing Australia had Walmart.

[macgregorcd]

@ABetterYesterday Be happy it hasn't reached you yet. It's a horrible, evil, big-business monster that kills small business.

[kiloSMACK]

love streetlight manifesto i can listen to them all day i cant believe only 509 have ears

[robbbberr777]

@RaurTheMuffinBoy how the hell did justin bieber pop up on a comepletely diferent genre lol

[Hotlantaa]

@RaurTheMuffinBoy I agree with you but don't start that shit

[SMfan199]

I've had many bands over the years in which I've deemed to be my "favorite" but not one as fucking amazing as Streetlight. I will surely be listening to these guys till I'm old and wrinkly, and I'll definitely be enjoying every minute of it.

[Jolamarajami]

Did anyone else catch what I'm pretty sure was a Radiohead reference in here? In the songwriting notes for SITB Tomas writes: "I left a very subtle reference to one of my favorite bands growing up" And "A detuned radio" is a line in the Radiohead song "Karma Police".

[DanielPunkSka]

I`m so pumped i get to see them live at the Catalyst the end of Febuary n.n hope there beast live like another ska band i love LA PLEBE!!!

[blindboy2]

@DanielPunkSka quite honestly i've seen a lot of band live... and a lot of them we're ska band...and i can tell you that streetligth was probably one of the most intense show i went to...1 hour and an half without stoping... they played so many song... they where absolutly amazing.

[sl4ayer]

@blindboy2 That sounds like sucha awesome experience :D /I'mJelly!

[Bazooka044]

once, i was in music class laughin at people with shit tastes, then my music teacher comes over n im all "damn this sucks you heard of streetlight manifesto??"

she said "Theyre a metal band right?"

fucking fuck fuck.

[SashaRose1997]

This song is soooooo addictive!!!!!!!!!!

[theDynamicSkunk]

i want to live in this music.

[oacaos]

LOVE IT!...had a friend call it mexican punk, so i punched his gut and sent him to the bathroom with dinner comming out his mouth...stupid mother fucker xD

[DXtoboDX]

15 people didnt have one foot on the gas.. they had both in the grave.

[foreverreckless]

@DXtoboDX more like 15 people didn't have one foot on the gas..they had both up there ass.

[BlueLink67]

@foreverreckless

I like this.

[antimioritza]

@foreverreckless their* -.-

[CaroLionMW]

@foreverreckless ahahahahahahahahahaha

[johnnyrocket566]

@foreverreckless correction, 16 people...

[mysshadow]

It really sucks that music like this isn't that big anymore. I've heard usually in schools, there are people who listen to Rap, then your Metal heads, and such and such. But my school, and comunitly in general is just a bunch of teeny boppers. Me and my bestfriend are the only people who listen to ska, like this. And get ridiculed for it. Oh well. Thomas Mutherfucking Kalnocky.

[TheNemoKid1693]

@mysshadow

Oh god, I love this comment.

[fukinpunx]

@mysshadow stick with your shit...fuck the ridicule..fuck those cocks.....this is good music and people that r worth a shit would agree

[fukinpunx]

@mysshadow stay true to your shit....fuck the ridicule.....its just a fucked form of flattery....this is good music and if they dont like it they can go fuck themselves

[mysshadow]

@fukinpunx True that my friend. True that.

[TheEmptypot]

Aaah, these guys are coming to my town in February and I am SO EXCITED.

[Mephisto4400]

STREETLIGHT MANIFESTO = AMAZING! :D

[ihappy1]

It's like, as soon as I think I think "Oh this song will probably not sound as good as some others Streetlight has done," I listen to it and DAMN IT'S GOOD.

Continue being incredible Streetlight, we love ya!

[erwinandshelboob]

Streetlight. Is. Amazing. I'm in love. <3

[comeintokyoo]

Streetlight is an obsession you don't have to be ashamed of.

[naynay457]

They are so good it hurts Thomas is a true genius

[dragoondev]

@someonenoticeimdead its too bad your not actually dead, but not all dreams can come true

[onestepcloser17]

THIS IS THE GREATEST BAND OF MY GENERATION <3333

CANT WAIT TO SEE THEM LIVE AGAIN !

[dragoondev]

thumbs up if every-time you hear that trumpet, you just get chills down your spine or goosebumps

[someonenoticeimdead]

@dragoondev Fuck you! And your thumbs up bullshit. Stop trying to get people to like you by you making a mediocre as fuck statement. Obviously we all like the trumpets, you're using it just to get a highest rated comment. I hope your kind fucking dies off.

[tyandray123]

i have one foot on thegas written on one o my shoes the one foot in the grave on my other :)

[erwinandshelboob]

@tyandray123 I have shoes with the one foot on the gas, one foot on the grave thing, too! :D

[tyandray123]

probably my favorite Streetlight song, starts out nice and easy then you skank your heart out.

[TraceurRijeka]

@AGuyCreatedOnPaint my worst part> 5:29

[tyandray123]

@TraceurRijeka true tha!

[Progressionification]

@TraceurRijeka Lol you a pessimist

[catofheckcatofheck]

I went from rock, to metal, to rap/hip-hop, and this.

Damn, do I love having a brother who plays in one of these bands.

[matijabg]

*skankin' sensless*

[COMPLEXxDELIRIUM]

im a heavy metal haed i hate this kind of music but this band is fricken awsome

[narutomex123]

@COMPLEXxDELIRIUM

dont be gay, i always listen metal and i love ska too

[GreenManEpisodes]

ah this song is my favorite song my favorite part was 1:17 :)

[ownagepie24]

@Dvividxx Stereotypically it would be any skateboarder, but there is no real name. Nor is there a name for a person who listens to rap besides trash, country besides redneck, pop besides douche, etc.

[wazzobazzo]

@Dvividxx A unicorn

[bannerboy149]

we need to find out who these 14 people are and punch there mothers in the vag'es for having them

[BlueSquirreels]

@bannerboy149 you shoud really get a life troll

[BlueSquirreels]

@bannerboy149 nerver minds



[Z4N30]

14 people should get punched in the genital region.

[Banouwnsoaft]

14 guys danced to wild and missed the "like" button

[SkanarchyMEDIA1]

@Banouwnsoaft I skanked so hard to this some of my CDs fell of my shelf and broke (thank god they wearnt streetlight manifesto CDs)

[RumbleRedUK]

@Dvividxx a skanarchist. or skatanaist?

[ownagepie24]

Tomas is so cool, he is both God and atheist at the same time.

[BlueSquirreels]

@ownagepie24 he be atheist

[Brmul12]

best part: 0:00-5:28. Amazing song.

[Saxtube10]

3:56 brings me to my knees

[pvcToan]

this is the cure to all the stupid music from the ....00's?

[adaylatemusic]

WE MIGHT JUST MAKE IT AFTER ALL! :D

[slayerxsux]

Favorite song 

[Devaprakash777]

To me the lyrics mean that he's questioning what he's been thought religion wise his whole life, but really, don;'t argue, the lyrics are pretty open ended, every one of u make ur own meaning and don't argue, it wastes time and causes a lot of bad feelings, and in the end, u didn't accomplish anything at all, mightaswell have just listened to the song.

[metalfaust19]

@Devaprakash777 yeah well...maybe i will kill you because you disagree with me!

[Devaprakash777]

@metalfaust19 -what's that got to do with anything???haha

[vusa69]

@Devaprakash777 i think its about the band and all the troubles they went through. like form getting all their shit stolen and thier fucked up record company and what not

[pythor2]

13 really stupid dicks

[fortonis]

FUCK i really pressed the dislike button but also the like.i'm sorry

[beardie9009]

great guitar part

[TheEnviroFriend]

12 people are either huge douchebags or hi the wrong button.

[SethSecertCameras]

Lawl, 12 people missed the like button

[LunasCraincloud]

I used to like these guys.... I guess my tastes have changed?

I mean there not bad now but they dont lite a fire for me like they used to.

[chris13295]

@LunasCraincloud I'm very sorry you are going through this horrible stage. Hopefully you'll pull through and come back to this band.

=]

[tonsoffuns]

Im from the 607!!!!!!!!!!!! Streetlight Manifesto is my god!!!

[HellaLaughs901]

these are the greatest lyrics ever heard

[Punkgoescrunk999]

This was the first song I heard from them. I love it so much :')

[ryanisarapest]

I feel fourth wave is going to end up being crack rock steady styled bands. Choking Victim, Leftover Crack, stupid stupid henchmen, Ect. It just hasn't gotten very big yet. Streetlight will just always be different. They're too good, :))

[ColourCodedQuotes]

@ryanisarapest

Streetlight is a genre of their own. I still have not heard anything close to them. They're half ska, half awesome.

[SKAtarina420]

@ColourCodedQuotes

more like 100 percent awesome.

[blazelmtdedtn]

@ColourCodedQuotes 4th wave ska :)

[thecrass79]

@blazelmtdedtn 3rd

[blazelmtdedtn]

@thecrass79 yeah i know but someone was saying something that i dont remember and i was saying they are so good they are 4th wave as a joke.

[nnaLundgren]

Please, just relax. Streetlight is a whole new band compare to catch 22. Well, ONE member, the singer came from catch 22 and also a fantastic song writer. But in case, in streetlight manifesto are every member a song writer and together they formed Streetlight. This band is really one of a kind and speculations about streetlight have formed a new genre called trash-ska is highly topical.

What do you guys think? And when does fourth wave gonna come?

[oceanoxchubi]

I like both, I like the way both band sing a story.

[SKAtarina420]

@nnaLundgren

4th wave is gonna be one hell of a revolution! :D

[LancasterKnight90]

oops meant dude

[LancasterKnight90]

jimmy conti is a cool dude. hes nice. he normal. an overall cool dud

[UserNameZor]

Skaaa :')

[guineapigsRus1996]

just got into this band. one word. AWESOME.

[500SquareFeet]

@guineapigsRus1996

[samme12345678920]

@500SquareFeet

[thelizard101]

@guineapigsRus1996 HEY ARE YOU SERIOUS THAT YOU ARE IN STREETLIGHT MANIFESTO DUDE ANSWER BACK

[guineapigsRus1996]

@thelizard101 no, i just got into their music. like i just started liking them

[roccuno]

@thelizard101 By "got into" the band, he means that he just started listening to them, not that he just joined them. Also, that comment was 6 months old.

[ZeroXFallen]

@roccuno And yet he still responded for himself. :P

[sudikai]

@guineapigsRus1996 thats an understatement 

[LillJuliiia]

california hardcore...

[antimatter2380]

@LillJuliiia um...what was that a reference to casuse they're from N.J.

[vtechbitch]

epic trombone solo??!?!?!??!?!? fuck yes. fuck all you stupid motherfuckers this is the best shit ever. (including catch 22)

[zorf10]

I agree 1000% especially the trombone solo =)

[ghsrunner94]

@vtechbitch Agreed. It seems like these guys have deeper, more thought out music, Even right down to the music theory of there songs. the chords, back up singer, fuckin amazing trombone solo's lol. But Catch 22 had the intensity. Both were Amazing, and i Love them both.

[BobbyRice2]

@luv2sponge

W0OO00O0OWO00OWO0O00O0O0O

[vtechbitch]

hahahahahahhahahahahaha you are awesome

[c2thedub14]

you're mother fuckin sucked me last night while listened to keasbey nights. so STFU.

[Shenwolf]

@luv2sponge

Hellz yeah brah!!!!

[UserNameZor]

@luv2sponge  No you suck ass

[dogz4evr]

i love this band!!!

[Clickthisprofile]

Who cares how hard it was to write or how hard it is to play, regardless whether he slaved at a typewriter for weeks or took a shit and said "I feel like writing" this is still hands down the best song on the album.

[rocketgem79]

"One foot on the gas, one foot in the"

Annoying video title limit >_>

[crackerontheloose]

i think the cover album keasby nights wasnt better than catch 22s original, but the rest of their music is a little more refined and accepted more popularly, but my tast is more for catch. sounds more punk to me

[PoisonSpittingClowns]

Catch 22 was more punk but I think the refined sound and improved horn playing is what made streetlight so influential in ska.

[calvinjaramillo]

kind of reminds me of they might be giants for some reason hah

[slightlystoopid91]

i saw them play this live too it was fuckin amazing he said before he played it that it was one of the hardest songs they wrote and play
