This song is exactly how I feel right now. I did outrageous things for a girl I liked and it turns out that she basically doesn't like me back. I was pretty stupid to think someone liked me that way.
One of my ALL TIME fave songs. this song has been so important to me, ever since the very first time i heard it. I felt as though the song spoke of how I was feeling, and i love it.
@WorldOfSnakes I embraced imperfection. You really really don't suck as much as people make you think. It's all changing your thought processes, and I'm still working on it.. I wish you the best of luck :)
I find this song relates to the modern world: We all try to be "perfect" and fit in with everybody else, listening to pop and things like that. What we don't see is that we simply wipe ourselves out of existence like this, and become a pawn to the system.
And as for Dave, though he hated playing this, Im sure he found significance in it as well.
@9987coldplayfan No, The Scientist came out in 2002, this song came out in 2004. If you're a Coldplay fan as your user name suggests, you should of known that.
@slimesters Actually, Five-O Grind or Astronaut was, not sure which one came first, but they we're on their demo tapes, but I'm not even sure if Five-O Grind was ever released, Astronaut was though.
it was my birthday today, and all day this song was stuck in my head. I'm not looking for any attention, but all im saying is that this song described my days in words that couldn't

How is this only a good song when you are sad? Greatness is not situational! Something can't be truly great when you're sad but not good when you're mad! It is a good song regardless!
yeah, was this like there first song ever? well to me, its thje first one i heard of them i've been trying to figure which one it is and i finally found it! :)
@YouGenuinus IIRC this was off their album Chuck which was when they started to move away from punk in older albums like Does This Look Infected and more into grunge.
der hier über mir is ein gutes beispiel für echte arschlöcher die kein echtes leben haben und einfach nur scheiße im kopf haben.... der song is zwa echt gut und hilft ein bei schlechten zeiten ein bisschen besser drauf zu sein aber gleich hier sone scheiße labern is echt nich mehr cool!
Ich (Bassist) dachte eigentlich , dass cih mich so langsam auf sachen wie RHCP konzentriere,aber immer wenn ich den Song höre will ich einfach nur ich weis auchnich ... Musik machen , die Leute mögen und bei dem Song kann man ja nicht sagen den mag man nicht , denn jeder mag den ... denk ich .
maybe they did but alot of bands have & i think they sing better when they sing they sing songs like this instend of those songs "In Too Deep" & "Fat Lip" it seems like they grew up & out of the childish songs which i enjoy but people enjoy diffent music...but that is my opion...
this song should not end when i listen to it , im like loving it but not knowing how fast it is actualy going past and it seems to be over like straight away :(
Its so crazy how you can feel so alone. You feel like no one is where you are or understands your struggles and what you're going thru. Then you hear a song like this. =]
i love this side of SUM, since they stoped producing this quality of song i moved on to Rise Against, not well known like SUM or Green Day but their lyrics are just as good or even better, which at this point i think they are
