  • It just sounds more annoying to the people who have listened to this for years when you say shit like "THUMBS UP IF YOU CAME HERE FROM _______"

  • Wow, thanks to the comments I've just realize that Mendel and Goldsmith played with Foo Fighters!

  • Nate Mendel!

  • Those who generalize emo as being "something that kids with dyed hair do while they cut their wrists", have a harder time understanding the genre then those who actually "dye their hair and cut their wrists". back in the 80's, these kids where called "goth". in the 60's, many of them we rarely seen by the rest of society, as most of them were institutionalized in one of their many state's mental facilities. what's my point? stop generalizing. this form of behavior in teens is not a "new thing".

  • for the record, this band was widely considered to be "ALTERNATIVE", many many many years before the genre (or even the name) emo existed.

    also, do we still really give two shits about genres? it's "good music". let's just leave it at that. i'm sure fugazi, rites of spring, sebadoh and husker du would agree.

  • Modern bands that claim to be emo are actually shitcore. This is the real 'emo core'.

  • @antipopboner :lololol: at your comment, are you serious? "REAL" "EMOCORE"

  • @antipopboner Emocore is short for emotive hardcore. Which is like hardcore punk but with more introspective lyrics and well you know what I mean. Anyways, it's just called emo now.

  • Oh my God! A million views! Thanks SDRE!

  • @Lain00 I think that's partly due to SDRE being so awesome, and partly because people want to endlessly debate about whether they're emo or not :D

    Emo

    Not Emo

    Shut up listen to the music

    (repeat a 33.3 million times each) :D

  • This is really beautiful. There should be more like it :)

  • actually it was "rites of spring" that started emo, guy's(from fugazi) old band.

  • @ri394 Thats true, but sadly They hated the term....Im Emo too back in those days but It doesnt really matter what Genre defines it. They Created it and I would thank them for It.(cough) Fuck MCR.

  • LOOOL, wiki this is emo?

  • @MANICHEESE Fugazi started Emo.

    This is Emo.

  • Comment removed

  • @founderofleadings So Tokio Hotel and shit like it it's what?

    I Think that band is Punk/grunge.

    Sorry my english grammar.

  • @MANICHEESE This band defines emo!

  • @MANICHEESE These are one of the guys who started emo. The modern "emo" is a bastardized shadow of what it was.

  • i guess im 1,000,084

  • when i bought Diary and had already pretty much worn out the Thief Steal Me a Peach vinyl....

  • Nate Mendel rules, he seems so chill

  • @emokiller907 thats because Nate is the God of the bass.

  • im sorry but when i heard this song on the radio i thought the singer was a girl... but this band is baddd asss

  • Thumbs up if you didn't know the Foo Fighters had a movie and you like Sunny Day Real Estate better

  • i listened to this song last year in sixth grade and it bleeeew my miiiiind

  • @teskourneofgoldshire you're going to be one cool highschooler. keep listening to these dudes.

  • @teskourneofgoldshire So glad to hear you say that. I first heard this song nearly 20 years ago, a month before my father passed away and it encapsulated the whole range of emotions I felt at the time. Like the rest of the album, it deserves to be listened to forever. Keep enjoying it.

  • Better Than Nirvana.

  • @jpATempestWest not that good but almost ;)

  • omg i hate emo people so damn much, they are so attention seeking, full of self pity annoying pieces of shits, next time i see one im fucking smashing there skulls against the wall. You dont have to be emo to enjoy music JUST SHUT THE FUUUUCK UP AND LISTEN, RELAX, AND ENJOY THE MUSIC! enough with these emo fat fucks!

  • @MaynardJamesKeenanJr lol what?

  • @MaynardJamesKeenanJr I think you have more problems than any emo person... have you consider a psychiatrist?

  • @MaynardJamesKeenanJr you don't need to be so hostile dude...

  • is this emo? because i fucking hate emo!

  • @fede018 t'is emo

  • @fede018 This isn't emo. Many emo bands were influenced by some of the styles that SDRE used when they created the emo style but SDRE is not emo. Emo lyrics are about self pitty, SDRE's lyrics are never about that and instead they are influenced in part by Jeremy Enigk's religious views. However, if they were emo I wouldn't give a shit... they still rock. I like a song if it sounds good to me.... period.

  • @wormygermy way to generalize there, brah! 90% of country artists write songs about loathing and lament. you wanna go ahead and throw that label onto them too? emo, just like "grunge" and "alternative" was a ridiculous genre title attached to given genres out of the need to label anything creatively out of the ordinary. the distinct chord progression, song structure, D-tuned power chords combined with melodic singing and oft acoustic structuring just to name a few distinguishing marks.

  • PS, if you're digging this type of music, check out The Orphan, The Poet!

  • Paramore is linked to SDRE because they cover several SDRE songs and name them as one of their major influences.

  • @mrtkaz yeah, but Paramore are shit!

  • Breathtaking...

  • thumbs up if your here because u watched the foo fighters movie

  • @woblingtv there is a movie about foo fighters whats it called

  • @RedDeadPsycho Back and Forth Awesome movie.

  • @RedDeadPsycho foofighters back and forth

  • @woblingtv thumbs up if your here because SDRE

  • 0:32 ahh, Mr Mendel. We meet again ;)

  • why is paramore on the side of this video?

  • Almost a million of views! Thanks everybody! Keep rocking!

  • @Lain00 Thank YOU for putting this up you legend!

  • ok, what is a true EMO band? this just sounds like rock to me. straight up rock.

  • @jcoffee180 This is emo, the melodic chorus, guitar work and lyrics prove it. This isn't the commonly mistranslated emo either, this is the emo where you don't wear eyeliner and cut your wrists, that emo is called Scene kid emo, "Hot Topic music".

  • @jcoffee180 early emo came from punk rock.

  • @jcoffee180 it's emo because the singer has a whinny depressing voice with lyrics to match...doesn't matter if they use heavy guitar riffs 'n stuff

  • Comment removed

  • this is extremely melodic, especially the chorus

  • Nice.

  • Inspiring band, underrated compared with another real emo bands, but still, hardly another band could get me like this, awesome!...

    I do really like this band!!!

  • The singer looks exactly like my old algebra teacher.

    He was my favorite teacher. And I suck at math.

  • we all know god has sunny day real estate on his ipod

  • I wish the audio quality would be better on these uploads...

  • how the fuck is this emo??? theres more of a noise pop, shoegaze style into this...

  • @dimarziotonezone23 That's kind of what emo used to be.

  • @masonroe157900000 All I listen is emo then, oh man... haha, I'd rather call it noise pop, shoegazey dream pop :)

  • @dimarziotonezone23 its emo cause that's what wikipedia says, which most people used to look this band up after the fact of listening to this

  • @unclebimbo fuck wikipedia :)

  • @dimarziotonezone23 You're right, this song isn't emo. Their album "Diary" was not emo whatsoever, but their later albums were.

  • @Necropedocoprophilia That's the only album I've listened to, thanks

  • @dimarziotonezone23 You gotta remember, 90s emo was way more different from todays emo. 90s emo was awsome, but now the definition of emo is someone who dyes their hair and puts on eye shadow, and cutting them selves >_>. Todays emo is way too depressing.

  • @markenyou maybe because there was no acual emo mate

  • @FrEaKyErDbEeRe1 damn you're so right, it made me register on youtube just to say how much i love ur words.

  • @CthulhuPlushie i <3 your user name

  • this is the first time ive ever heard this band and i like it.

  • They cut down the intro so fucking much in the video.

  • @Darkschizotypal They Thought you couldnt handle the epicness lol

  • first emo band i guess..:)

  • @akosiclipordo  That was Rites of Spring.

  • @akosiclipordo there's no such thing as the "first emo band"...but, if you really want to split heirs, you can say that "rites of spring" was actually the first emo band. if you'd like to go further than that, kids who painted their face, finger nails and dyed their hair were listening to "the cure" since the late 70's. like to go farther then that? iggy pop was cutting himself on stage since the late 60's. so let's just say that there really wasn't "a first"...just extensions of that....

  • @clemenza1234 Rites of Spring where the first emo band musically. Cutting yourself and having dyed hair has nothing to do with emo. Kids that look like that modern day are just scene cunts. And goths weren't about hurting yourself, it was just about the expression about darker artsy stuff.

  • @antipopboner i think you missed the point...

    ultimately, people spend more time trying to distinguish this "sound" the enjoy the music. for argument's sake, many identified "rites of spring" as a punk band. years later, they'd be seen as one of the many post-punk fathers that gave birth to alternative music, what with killing joke and sonic youth. many many years later, they'd be seen as "emo"...to which the band has time and time again, never taken credit for (being the fathers of anything).

  • @clemenza1234 Yea, I hate labeling stuff to. Makes me wonder why the term 'grunge' exist when none of the bands that were 'grunge' sounded alike.

  • I really love the drums in this song!

  • Love coming of age with this song!!!!

  • Can't believe this is almost on one millions views...

    Remember listening to Sunny Day when they started out, oh how they've grown.

  • Sunny Day isn't emo...

  • @pinkbbbratt yeah they are they are part of the original lineup. It was like them and mineral and texas in july they all originated the emo genre.

  • @timmcconnell88 holy shit, texas in july? emo? original lineup? you're not thinking of texas is the reason are you? pleeease try to not give out terrible information like that.

  • @pinkbbbratt They are. Before it became the MCR mainstream bullshit.

  • Saw these guys at Tsunu’lahun’ski, been a fan ever since.

  • the true emo♥

  • wow I saw these guys in Fargo ND back in late 93 maybe early 94... holy shit time flies.

  • @HiFiAwardTour holy shit i'm from fargo i'm jealous even though i would've been like 6

    

  • why does Nate annoy me when he plays bass?

  • @michaellovegrove he does that retarded ass dance

  • @capostatus937 so its not just me! whew. I mean he's a sick bassist and all, but he just looks like such a dork when he plays. haha

  • YOU'LL TASTE IT, YOU'LL TASTE IT...IN TIIIMMME!!!!

  • <3

  • Fantastic band. enough said

  • 88 persons dont have G5

  • I like ALOT of different music but this is definitely one of my favorite songs EVER. Jeremy Enigk has an incredible voice.

  • I remember when i first heard this band and this song in the mid 90s. I thought, " damn, they're good." I've heard a lot of good and great songs since then (and before).  But, I still believe this is an excellent song and band. Rock on guys.

  • this is GOOD emo not scene wannabe emo

  • @ZombieLightYagami Yeah, this is the definition of REAL emo music.

  • first and only time i saw sunny day jeremy was wearing a ..seaweed t-shirt awesome back in 1994 check out this band garden variety song is harbored emo at its best rip..............please check out seaweed..................

  • ha i like how nate mendel ":dances" wen he plays the bass the same way all the time lol

  • hate emos, but this isn't bad

  • i wish the singer of jawbreaker, the drummer from the get up kids and the bassist from sdre would make a band, with jeremy enigk

  • Comment removed

  • Idk why people insist on labeling music. Last time I checked, this was SDRE with their own unique sound and original songs...

  • i wish i had a copy of this album! i'd die for it! this was my very 1st high school soundtrack! brings out a lot of memories!

  • Why can't music of today be this good? Bands today are a bunch of over-dramatic whiney little bitches.

  • Their first album so rules ; )

  • the original emo band...

  • the only reason you would need to classify music is if you want to share it with someone, but don't really have anything on you to show them so you give the music a label to give them an idea of what it might sound like. If you're just on youtube, listening to music, you either like it, you think it's ok, or you don't like it.

    tl;dr: genres don't really matter, just listen to the music

  • @OysterizerInsomniac thank you!! the voice of reason!!

    you hear that kids? genres were really just an invention for a&r reps to get a better idea of what your band sounded like, based on their press kit. also, for those reading about your band in a magazine. today, they really aren't necessary, so long as your band has a youtube, soundcloud, facebook and myspace.

    thank you kind sir or maam.....i shall buy you a drink.

  • Shhhhhhh..... SDRE is playing :D

  • Awsome song

  • @FunkySkunk55 my talent show isn't till June!!

  • @Invader010

    Oh ok good luck

  • @Invader010 If you do post it their needs to be some covers of this song on here

  • @Invader010 oh my god. please do.

  • @Invader010 DO IT. TWICE.

  • personally i think all music is able to be classified. to me when i listen to them i see indie/grunge/emo... subgenres get kind of weird.... melodic is the prefix to so many genres, melodic hardcore, melodic deathcore, etc. as long as the music kicks ass thats all that matters but you can see they laid the blue print for bands like thursday, armor for sleep, midtown....

  • Dave grohl didn't stole the drummer and the bassist.

    Goldsmith and Mendel joint Daves Band after Sunny Day Real Estate broke up.

  • On GH:WoR they say that this is harder on drums then Fury of the Storm. Thats not true but i love this song.

  • Thumbs up if you came here from wikipedia!

  • why would anyone dislike this?

  • i <3 the 90s

  • Awesome.

    

  • so did these guys ever get real big?

  • @RawrGuitar1022 They did in the underground music scene. They aren't sellouts to the mainstream.

  • @RawrGuitar1022 no cos dave grohl came along and stole the bassist and the drummer in 1995.

  • Damn. I like old emo and screamo. I really feel sad after listening to it.

  • @7ChaosBlack agreed. I've always viewed them as a melodic band. they never considered themselves emo. people didn't start calling them that until many years down the road. Many wanted to anoint them as the start of emo.

  • This isn't that bad

  • This is REAL Emo. Fuck the Posers.

  • @JPishida clearly you're too young to know what you're talking about. This is just rock from this period of history.

  • Interesting facts: The drummer in this video was in Foo Fighters and the bassist in this video is currently in Foo Fighters.

  • @dannyrjenkins how is that interesting facts?? everybody knows dave grohl stole the drummer and bassist.

  • @fatriff I'm sure not everyone knows.

  • @dannyrjenkins I didn't know.

  • I wish rock music still sounds like this... that is, like rock music

  • why cant there be more bands like this nowadays?

    

  • its is really EMO

  • dont see why foo's kicked adam out he seems pretty good (least i thnk adam is the drummers name..)

  • @KurdtKobain09 He's called William Goldsmith. Check out 'Back and Forth', the foo's documentary, its all in there why he left. A mixture of the fact he wasn't very confident on stage and the fact that when they recorded The Colour and The Shape, Dave re-recorded all of Will's drum tracks without telling him. But I agree, he's still pretty good.

  • @hetyife i actually like his drumming more than Daves

  • @lBenHarrison Me too. Dave, Taylor, and William are all great drummers. But I love William's style and it would have been interesting to hear it on the Foo Fighters' record.

  • @160ofthe90s Yea i know. Plus i lost a lot of respect for Dave from that decision. Its a decision you make as a band, not as an individual.

  • Loved SDRE Loved Sub Pop. Too bad I was a silly high school student and poorer than a church mouse. Otherwise, Well you know...  Good Times.

  • the comments should just be disabled here considering most of the comments are about labeling/genres. enjoy the video and stop complaining.

  • Greatest fucking band of all time. There are very few albums that I can say truly shaped my life, and this is absolutely one of them.

  • Isn't the beginning shortened from the album version? I seem to remember it going longer...

  • i actually quite like this (:

  • Great beat...very cool

  • The comments are a downer.

    Trying to categorize bands of this era into one chunk. In the 90s it was all about the band, their inspiring lyrics and their unique sound of raw emotion and passion.

    It seems all the comments I've dared to read, only care about what label people put them into, as if it matters. I'm positive most of you weren't even listening to music like this when it was in its prime.

    Because I sure as hell never saw fans arguing like this. Its pathetic and saddening to see.

  • @snowwhitesdildo You're so true.
