  • Song always makes me feel free, maybe it's the reference to being by the Ocean, like I can feel the air coming off the water.

  • That chick just flipped people off for those everclear haters.

  • Good song for good guys who need to forget bad girls.

  • 2.18 drummer has a spasm

  • I think I wore this cd out when I was younger...lol.

  • @MrAnguswangus not only did i wear ot the cd,i bought a 2nd copy and now i have two with only one case and no inside cover...great album..

  • Why did the 90s have to be so awesome and make this crap now seem all the crappier?!?

  • @MrFunRat LOL, that is a good comment!

  • craig looks a little bit like justin long.

  • Ahhh, the sounds of my childhood.

  • My brother used to intentionally sing the wrong lyrics "I am still living with my folks", cracks me up every time I think of it.

  • the meaning of the song is actually sad, when art alexakis was in high school his girlfriend killed herself he then tried to do the same by jumping off the santa monica pier.

  • "I just wanna see some paaalm treees" :)

  • This song is so me it's creepy. I love it <3

  • wow ruined the song, i knew it

  • MTV used to play the hell out of this video back in the day. If they didn't, I probably wouldn't have gotten to know about the greatness of Everclear!

  • I watched this video to remind me that Art was once a great songwriter.

  • Oh 90's..

    No generation has ever nostalgia'd as hard as we will.

  • @Posdrums3 Uh, I have lived through both the 80's and 90's. 80's are King for nostalgia. 90's weren't bad, but they were the beginning of the end.

  • @TheSovietSteel Lol. You have a metal detector. Lol.

  • @Posdrums3 I have a lot of things. Money will do that for you. Still doesn't have anything to do with my statement about the 1980's.

  • @TheSovietSteel Haha. Metal detector. Money? I don't think so. Haha XD

  • @TheSovietSteel 90's not bad? The 90's were badass.

  • @Posdrums3 it was literally like the perfect decade.the economy was great,didn't have to worry about being nuked by the russians,technology was kinda suspect but getting there,a new form of music was out.

  • It's a classic!!!

  • SO GLAD THIS SONG WAS MADE!!! YOu made alotta ppl's day! LOVE IT!! LOVE EVERCLEAR!! The alcohol, AND THE BAND!! :) STAY UP!! MAKE SUM NEW!!

  • I FOUND IT!!!

  • what a fun song!

  • We need more music like this today, Every song has a huge meaning to his life. If you're a true Everclear fan you would know what I'm talking about.

  • "Swim out past the breakers and watch the world die"....fuck I wish I could do this...the world is bloody crumbling right before us!

  • the best song of all time

    fresno,ca

  • i forgot the name and when i forgot the name and i started rembering the song i thought it was "set out in nature watchin time fly" >.<

  • learning to play this on guitar :)

  • @UltimateBuckyBoy Me too :D

  • I thought this song was called Watch the world die when I was a kid and my mom told it is called Santa Monica when I was on my way to West University Elementary one morning.

  • No beef with modern music, theres so much of it I like. However nothing will ever be as magical as the music from your youth. This song never fails to make me feel happy and nostalgic.

  • "with my big black boots, and a old suitcase." best part

  • @HJRWproductionz so I'm not the only one who thinks that...lol

  • this was a huge rock radio song. always like hearing it still.

  • is the ad only available in the states? how come i don come across it when click this?

  • "We could live beside the ocean..."

    My God I love this song. I don't wanna die, but when I do, this is what I want played at my funeral.

  • Also, got to love the message of this song. Where as now a days music is all she left me he left me waaa waaa what a hole in my heart this is a song of a diffrent message, you didn's so much leave a hole in my heart as you burned your goddamned image in my head so fuck you I'M OUT. Love everclear..

  • fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck you vevo

    

  • I was warming up my cousin's truck when this song came on. I was in such a good place, then that damn "Moves like Jagger" song came in. I was so pissed I got out of the truck into the cold and went in the house. My good vibes were ruined by modern music.

  • why do we not have music like this anymore bring back the good old days of music when music was based on talent and not looks

  • With my big black boots and an old suitcase!

  • Thoery of a Deadman sucks... This is the only Santa Monica I want to listen to

  • @goshdarned I fucking AGREE fuck Theory!

  • @goshdarned both songs are great nig boy

  • @goshdarned I will admit Theory Of Deadman has like 2 good songs, which are Bad Girlfirend and I Hate My Life,, but let's compare it to Everclear, all of Everclear's great songs I Will Buy You a New Life, Santa Monica, Wonderful, Father Of Mine, Volvo Driving Soccer Mom, AM Radio(which samples Mr. Big Shot), and One-Hit Wonder.

  • @Wisconsin222 Yeah Everclear truely wins, plus we all know Everclear's got the name because Theory of a Deadman might sound cool but Everclear is the Alcohol Verision of Death.

  • so awesome....this song is about sooooo many things...

  • i'll never forget these awesome words. with my big black boots and my old suitcase.....

  • needs to be edited

  • Good shit! I went and saw Everclear and MB20. It was a great show....

  • dumb ass add wasting my time

  • Listening to the band live or on tape is a much better experience than watching them in music video. Art Alexakis looks like he's making love to a mirror on camera in every video and mostly they showcase some model and the acting is very fake. I notice that collectively the video views don't add up to one Fred vid. I've heard Art preching about how he conquered his drug addiction it's a major turn off and are all the anti drug ads all over the video. Self righteous sell out

  • Where has this song been my entire life????

  • @clairesantamonica Its been back in the 90's with all the other good shit!!!

  • at the bottom of this video is some bullshit for selena gomez and Bieber crap.... is this what music has come to nowadays?? so fucking sad....

  • these ads suck....fu VEVO

  • Fuck 1995.

  • One of my favorite songs of the 90's...

    Just awesome. Is the song serious, is it happy, is it sad? I think it's just a fun song.

  • funny thing i was listening to this song just now and it came on tv at the same time i was listening to it on here crazy fucking love this song

  • Yea this song reminds me when i first got my license and started driving in 1998, i had a Mustang LX, and this song reminds me of the first week i had the car and me and my friends drove to the beach to fish and get stoned. ... aaa nostaligia can choke me up sometimes :,(

  • Nostalgic Punk Rock: Our go to drug for candy coating memories and accelerating selective forgetfulness.

    If the 90's were the best times of your life, that is kinda sad. I was in kindergarden though 9th grade in the 90's and you couldn't pay me enough to go back.

  • FUCK NICKI MINAJ

  • VEVO played a really loud country music video as an advertisement before this video.

    Why the hell would I want to listen to ANOTHER song (especially a country one) when i specifically came to hear this song? Music video ads should not be ads pertaining to other songs.

  • @PotentialWhale Adblock plus.

  • @PotentialWhale Use fire fox, get adblock. You won't even know what vevo is.

  • @PotentialWhale #firefox... dl adblocker plus...

  • @PotentialWhale I got a vodka commercial :)

  • @PotentialWhale Seriously, I just noticed a gay boy band ad.

  • ahaahaha this song gots 600,000 views and 300,000 of those are mine :D

  • This song sounds little like "Possum Kingdom" by Toadies

  • I think i will always remember that guitar riff in the beginning

  • What is Time-O-Sphere?

  • i wish music today was based on talent instead of looks if it wasnt based on looks and autotune and stuff we would have music today

  • This is my favourite tune.

  • Ok, I just have to say to say this...he is so hot! It isn't really his looks, its just his...everything...how he moves, how he sings, how he smiles. LOL (I can't believe I am actually going to post this)

  • even though i was born in 93 i feel i was meant for the 90's

    

  • 40 people want to be the bad guy so much that they would watch the world die and dislike this song.

  • da 90s

  • This is a good song.......until the 40 second mark

  • the 90's are coming back just think the rock is back in wrestling (kind of) Beavis and butthead are coming back theres not as much censoring on tv and alot of shows are going back to their roots sooner or later they will make it possible to smoke inside again and we wont just be smoking tobacco blink 182 is back together everclear is still making music and rancid just put out an amazing album the 90's are slowly coming back
  • I literally cried listening to this song...I miss the 90's. I miss being a kid. I miss going on trips and throwing this cd in my cd player and listening through the whole thing over and over agaoin. I don't want to grow up, I don't like the fucking 2000s. Bring this back.

  • @o0The0oo0Metal0o Yeah. I feel the same damn way. This decade is gonna suck, and the last one did too. I was born in 1997, but I really wish the 90's was repeated.

  • @sC4Hda1 You didnt even experience the 1990's really so how do you even know it was really any better than it is now?

  • @o0The0oo0Metal0o lol shut the fuck up and grow up.

  • @o0The0oo0Metal0o it would surprise me if you were more than three years old when this came out

  • @o0The0oo0Metal0o I totally agree with you. Me and my friend grew up on this music. :( 90's grunge alternative is the best.

  • @o0The0oo0Metal0o word. that is all i can say.  i feel you on everything you said.

  • @o0The0oo0Metal0o i am currently 16 [nearly 17] years old. i am an unfortunate part of the new generation that is treating music like a hate crime with a beat to it. i hate that music is being torn apart. i am the only person my age i know who actually knows this song... let's just say this... I AM SO FUCKING PROUD TO HAVE BEEN BORN IN 19 _~"9"~_ 4. may the 90's live on in the hand-me-down grunge kids forever!

  • @loveinlights1994 so you listened to this when you were 1 year old? fuck off

  • @crzyrpr2000 uh, no, it was handed down to me by my parents, like i said. "hand-me-down grunge kids" so yeah... YOU fuck off.

  • @loveinlights1994 suck on my fatty

  • @crzyrpr2000 that would be statutory, mother fucker. god, i don't get the fucking trolls. and honey, not in your wettest ;]

  • @loveinlights1994 did i hit a nerve sweet tits?

  • @crzyrpr2000 LMFAO you are such a fucking loser, why do assholes like you have to come into my favorite videos and start shit with awsome people. I thought it was great when she set you straight the first time and the best thing you could come up with was "suck my fatty", 57 old pedophile like you probibly can't even get it up anyway, by the way nice background ya fucking virgin, peace.

  • @MrMudslap kaay im in college, im 19, had sex three times, and that kid is gaaayy not awesome u fat fuck and chances r u jacked off to the background pic

  • @crzyrpr2000 ohh did I hit a nerve sweet tits? oh and you where giving her shit for being one when she listened to this and if you are nineteen that would have made you three... oh and your channel said you where 57, its just kitty corner to the comments where everyone else thinks your a loser too. :D... You know college is partly for culturing yourself so I suggest you work on that so you don't find yourself being hated by everyone by the time you really are 57. Good luck and I mean that.

  • @MrMudslap okkkaaayyy

  • @loveinlights1994 you must not know many kids your age...

  • @o0The0oo0Metal0o i am a kid and tell you what i hate this goddamn place people. the 2000s; they suck balls. i moved from my hometown with the best people i have ever known... i had four best friends and their gone now and we used to listen to this song every goddamn day. i listen to this and cry my eyes out.. im going to there resting places today

  • @o0The0oo0Metal0o omg me too!!

  • DOPE very DOPE SONG hate you but MISS U!

  • Think about how godawful the 80s were, and then the 90s came after and were the greatest period of music. I think the 2020s will be another great decade for music.

  • thumbs up if your name is MONICA <3 .

  • I think this was 1 of the last really great periods in music.

  • @SatanOffspirng she gota laptop in there? daaamn!

  • This is the theme song of my life. I'm 16 and once I graduate I'm moving straight to California.

  • @mlongo91 yea. but im a certified body technision for repairing cars. so i can make it work.

  • been looking for this song for years. fuck!.... takes me back

  • Even if this was put up by a greedy company this awesome song still deserves WAYYYY more views than it has now

  • Everclear is actually a pretty big influence on my band Hysteria Sound System. :) You should check out our Youtube page and subscribe or leave us a comment if you want. We're a newer band and we're just trying to find some sort of fan base. Not trying to spam this video though! I LOVE EVERCLEAR!

  • WHY CAN'T YOU DUMBASS'S JUST ENJOY THE FUCKING MUSIC DAMN!!!!!

  • @SatanOffspirng are you retarted. i only forgot a space between something you dunce. now go crall back in yo mommas ass

  • never get sick of this song!!! LOVE IT!!!!!!

  • Im Proud To Be Apart Of The Few Generations Of The 90's Borin In 1997 :)

  • country? music i think thiss is

  • @seansswagrocks nope. early alternative rock

  • Why they call it santa monica?

    

  • @seansswagrocks maybe because its in california (hint) west coast and is has the ocean:)

  • @seansswagrocks Cause it's about moving to the west coast, meaning California. Santa Monica is a city in Cali in the area of LA.

  • I forgot how many QUALITY songs they made.. holy shit

  • Only 643000 views? I was expecting a couple million views. This is quality music man!

  • geile mucke!

  • Hmmm... he seems pissed. Perhaps he should wear his socks inside out.

  • Part of the reason why I live out west now :) Thanks guys

  • Of course the band I like to overdose on has to have a name that sounds like a drug..

    Awkward mom conversations. -___-

  • @TheLivingtodie theres an alcohol called everclear

  • I still love this song!!!!

  • still swimming

  • Still swimming out to the breakers

  • Jesus... This song has me feeling old. I was a youngster when it came out. Very nostalgic. I kinda miss the 90s. The 2000s and on kind of suck.

  • Rock is not dead it will never die but its just waiting for to right time to strike back at rap and hip hop so it can come back on top.

  • fucking vevo is taking over

  • fuck lmfao!!!

  • i remember 95/96 had so many great alt/indie songs that were hits in the mainstream, this included, mtv 120 minutes, the first year of the internet and cable tv, it was just a really fresh period for feature music ...

  • if the world ever ends i'll play this song
