Vertical Horizon - You're A God

[alycee12]

I only know this song because of Bruce Almighty. :)

[CanadianHamburger]

this is in response to the commercial vevo showed me.

Dear Cee Lo Green,

Quit trying to be famous. You're not, so stfu. You're just a 1 hit wonder, which would have made you famous in the 90s, but not today when "a hit" is only on the charts for 3 days. The only reason you were even in the superbowl was because you begged Madonna till it wasn't funny anymore.

[345jubilee]

@CanadianHamburger He's more famous than you, you no name troll. He's on tv and you're at home blogging about him. Cee Lo-Winning. You-FAIL.

[jluck202]

@CanadianHamburger Get all the info before you talk shit.. Cee lo Green has been writing songs for other artists for many years!! So theirs a good chance that some of those songs you like/listen to, he wrote. So next time you run your fuckin mouth, do some research first!!

[JeSSicaKaDie]

@CanadianHamburger Wow, you apparently don't realize how man songs Cee Lo Green has written, most of which you probably like. So just shut the fuck up

[suryamp12]

I've been listening to this song over and over again

[bush171]

i miss this time period

[19MajinVegeta19]

@ 2:15 Derp!

[swanch99]

Thumbs up if you got a BJ to this song in high school

[kyledean32]

Isn't she on White Collar now?

[Chrisgodoflard]

Ever felt like a drama queen, this is song for you.

[TwistedSpawn]

Where are shirts like that now a days?! Shiny sleeves and all

[mufasa2005]

can someone explain why she broke the mirror?

[beeemdubya]

i don't get it

[carebear27203]

Tiffani Thiessen <3

[FactoryMalfunction]

I wish that music still sounded like this.

[nvxdiz]

Loved this song the moment I heard and saw the music video on VH1s Top Video Countdown way back when it came out

[rantsid529]

Does no one else see that this song was released in the year 2000? It is not a 90s song...

[LoveNixon]

@rantsid529 the music video was made in 2000, the song was not release then. It was released on the CD Everything You Want which was released on June 15th, 1999. Although, this song did not become popular until the year 2000

[mspurplerain1999]

Got a call one day to run for beauty queen of my state..instead I stayed with him.. I never wanted it to be like this video. The things you do for love <3

[Lowdolski]

@mspurplerain1999 That warms my heart to hear, I dated a girl who competed in pageants and it was sad to see how self centered and selfish she became. I'm not trying to paint her a different color, sadly I guess that is who is was. It's nice to hear of someone putting aside fame and fortune to be with someone they love even more. I wish you two all the happiness.

[mspurplerain1999]

@Lowdolski Sad as it maybe the egos and power can tear people apart from seeing what is real in life.Even then it can be misconstrued if one has opportunity and wants to share it with the other without a power struggle. Music and entertainment is hard enough I don't' think people realize until they live it and share it with another. To this day he has no idea I never told him

[brianmo180]

2:12 Timothy Geithner?

[sorayugiman2]

Remember ron paul

[lizlouisemartin]

Just added to favorites ^.^

[tonyridlen]

Vertical Horizon a great band.

[The19Chris77]

There has always been songs about sex. Maybe not as out there as the music now is. But yes. Also there has always been good song writers that write about things that touch the heart and soul. I was born in 77 but my mom used to listen to everything from MoTown to old 1920's jazz. The BeeGees and all that disco stuff. As I came into my own music, she just said some of it she liked and said some was wirten for the kids my age. lol Same goes for now.

[alexey621]

born in '89. like if you were born in the late 80's

[tnbabydoll1]

yay i was born in 91 too :0

[Chrisgodoflard]

Yeah, because most drama-beauty queen types of girls act like they're gods, or goddesses, what ever you say.

[luckygreen101]

Daughtry is like a newer version on Vertical Horizon... :O

[rockout2kutless]

You guys are making me feel old for being born in 91. I grew up listening to Pink Floyd and The Cars.

[WymanHardy]

Kelly Kapowski is perfection.

[beall45]

where is the dislike bar.....oh wait there isnt one

[OnyxStar17]

born in 92 son

[20Justin1]

I was born in 97 so i could't really understand anything from music in the 90s but now I look back and I have to say the 90s has the best music (even though this came out in 2000). Now in school i feel like an outcast for listening to rock and 90s music while everyone else listens to shit pop music. I mean the music has no meaning. All pop music is all about sex,drugs,partying,and money while rock music has a lot of meaning

[emoman95]

@20Justin1 i'm with you, man! I was born in 95 but I wish it was earlier, the 90's had so much to offer music-wise! I don't solely listen to 90's music (there's a lot of good modern rock songs, and even some decent pop songs), but when I do, it's always awesome

[moneyminty]

@emoman95 im a 95 baby to but i look back and love music we didnt fully understand back then

[TroubleinParadise000]

I as born in 1997 and I remember hearing this song when i was little so now as i hear it again after almost 9 years is just phenomenal because it makes me reminisce on the happy memories of when i was little and it almost makes me cry because it was a great time when everything in the world had no purpose it they all just amazed me. Now i know why everything is here but then i was naive and i really wish i could go back. When we invent time travel im going to 2000 and 2001

[DZP777]

omGWAd its Kelly! xD (from Saved by The Bell)

[MrDirk6]

I see no dislike bar.

[PlacidDirge]

Wow, I haven't heard this song in ages!

[yaguking]

this song is about a guy that likes, probably loves her, and is close to her. maybe a friend or not. but he's just tired of seeing her down and wants to pick her up, even though it might just be a compliment. at least, this is what i got from it.

i was born at the start of the 90's, and i'm glad to be a part of that time. so many great songs that lifted people up. unlike today where its mostly about people thats either vain or horny. i love the 90's and i hope that music goes back

[yaguking]

@yaguking to being the way it was supposed to be the way it was, or at least something close to it

[iraslady70]

It's Valerie from 90210.

I loved this song from Bruce Almighty!

[ShelbyDoesntKnow]

THIS deserves 600,000,000 views, not Justin Bieber.

God I hate this world sometimes...

[cfol11]

@ShelbyDoesntKnow o another Bieber comment. How original.

[CanadianHamburger]

@ShelbyDoesntKnow and by sometimes you mean anytime after 2005

[TheBaileyde]

damn...this song is awesome.

[Ramiz1129]

I'd Glaze her like a Donut.

[Jamster22101]

@Ramiz1129 hahaha omg thats so horrible! lol

[Ramiz1129]

@Jamster22101 Gotta call it like it is! ha!

[darkpink44]

@Ramiz1129 lol whats that supposed to mean?

[bush171]

@darkpink44 r u 5 years old?

[TheJbell4]

@Ramiz1129 don't glaze me bro!

[Sinfire777]

one of the more awesome music videos AGAiNST vanity, rather than exploiting it. i myself am still, "learning things i outta know by now". im very superficial, even towards myself, i need to change. love this song.

[whydoesthismattr]

I just rediscovered these guys.. Hell Yeah.

[MyGreekfreak]

I dont get the end...

[spd1303]

how many of you knew that girl is kelly from saved by the bell

[relativity11]

kelly kapowski ftw

[taraelkin21]

8 people are athiests...



[2007pepsilover]

@taraelkin21 lol i'm atheist but i love this song, it a great song either way :)

[rschrom]

@taraelkin21

XP there is nothing wrong with being athiest for one, and for two i'm athiest and i love this song, and for three he is refering her to a god not calling her one. he is simply stating that she acts like she is a god and no one is better than she is and she is highly superficial. hes not saying that she is a god just that she acts like one and when he says that "and i'm not and i would just like to let you know" he is refering him as a lesser important person than she is FYI :)

[griffster131]

all you guys who think their talking about the girl you're wrong...the video may be about her but the song is completely different from it, this band is Christian by the way....just listen to Everything You Want and you'll get the idea :)

[GeekAtLifeMeter]

@griffster131 Exactly; the video doesn't always follow the song.

Also, as an atheist/agnostic, I'm sick of religion being used the way it is right now; personal beliefs have nothing to with liking (or disliking) something, and it's definitely not something to come to blows over. We only have this one life on Earth, so let's not waste it bickering over beliefs that ultimately mean nothing here.

[Thomas76930]

Im a christian and as hard as it is for me to say this i like this song

[backknuckle]

@Thomas76930 What does being christian have to do with liking this song or not?

[Thomas76930]

@backknuckle look at the title and lyrics....He's calling this woman a God, and with my religion it's not right...but i find the song catchy

[backknuckle]

@Thomas76930 its a comment on her thinking she is perfect and a parody on her personal image. He isn't referring to her as a legitimate idol.

[strictlynineties]

Nice song. Ugly video.

[vsuarez3]

Thumb Up if you are listening this in 2011...

[No1veigar]

My god i love this band

[mtbleach2]

B E A utiful song

[ELLDEE321]

Nipple @ 1:04 :o)

[RoughbhicksChubghe]

I wouldn't hear this song if I didnt watch this:Western mine by Sanmiiglight

[CodyMProductions]

the kids of the 90's will look back and see love of each other and happiness, anger to society but not towards there fellow man, and acceptance.

kids of the 2000's will look back and see "im gonna love you on the dance floor" crap.

remember when music had a meaning besides sex?

[piratepride2015]

@CodyMProductions haha I <3 this comment! I was born right on the edge oF IT ALL! 97' babay!!!!!!

[Malkmusianful]

@CodyMProductions It still does have a meaning.

You're ignoring Arcade Fire and Radiohead, brah.

[HolidayKirk]

@CodyMProductions You are blinded by nostalgia. That is a silly, narrow minded opinion.

[bedlam898]

@CodyMProductions Agreed on most counts, but how do you have anger against society, but not your fellow man? Isn't that what society is made up of?

[nonSteel]

@CodyMProductions

ummm, its actually i'm gonna fuck you on the dance floor. get it right.

and fuck vevo.

[RealTime88]

@CodyMProductions I was born in 1988 and I loved this song, Cody!! Music today for the most part sucks.

[greygallow]

@CodyMProductions totally agree...i love this band and its genre <3

[btun43]

@CodyMProductions are you kidding me? you cannot possibly be serious.

[awt1989]

@CodyMProductions well put yo

[val144]

@CodyMProductions

There have always been songs about sex.....

[GanaLaMana]

@CodyMProductions I think there were meaningful songs made in the 2000's that people like you (and me to an extent) can't see because you didn't live through the period where everything was new to you, and you were still growing. I promise there's the 2000's babies' version of "You're A God".

[GanaLaMana]

@CodyMProductions Oh and secondly, I think much of music has sex at it's core. Every generation of American parents struggles to come to this realization, so this isn't a unique viewpoint of today. That problem stems out into the bigger issue of repressing sexuality. Let the music go!

[kotokoiriefan]

@CodyMProductions i wish i could thumbs up this like 1000 fking times... god i cannot stand today's society.

[ComfortablyMuffin]

@CodyMProductions Interesting how the old music inspired more sex than the current swill that actually talks about 'booty and bitches'... With exceptions of course, but I agree with you almost totally.

[jluck202]

They need to come out with some new music already!! we've been waiting patiently!!.. or not!! haha

[11lostfan]

tiffany theissen= hot

[darkpink44]

Is that blonde girl tiffani thiessen?

[videodude23]

@darkpink44 Yeah it is!

[muzikluver1993]

Listening to this song gives me the chills. I don't know why.

[GregRodg]

just noticed a nipple slip in the cat fight at ~1:03 . Way to be, VH!

[shotgunnsman]

"Want to see a miracle, son? Be the miracle"--God as played by Morgan Freeman

[hiimwhite305]

late 1990s and early 2000's = best music ever.

[ESTO8]

"YOUR COVERED IN LICE AND THATS OKAY"...

[windoverxx]

This came out 11 years ago. I feel old and I'm 18 hahaha

[MrWilliebeamen]

This song is so good.



[23ryan93]

@AHarr930 yeah i couldnt find out for the life of me what this song was called till i watched that movie. Finding out what this song was a two year long mission and i found out what its called Bruce Almighty.

[420Guitar420]

Back when you could hear the individual notes on a guitar and the crack of the snare drum. Nowadays they mix rock albums so it's mostly the singer and a clusterfuck of noise in the background.

[sugrrkisses]

It's Tiffany Amber Theeson...Kelly from Saved By the Bell :D...oh yeah totally 90s :D!!

[goheels80]

I'd say Valerie from 90210 LOL



[ShailaLopezzz]

now why'd she go and do that?

that was a nice trophey if you ask me..

[hearseluver16]

Rock on DC101, for enlightening me to this awesome shit!

[kylekoolkid]

ughhhhh this is 2 days now that i havent been able to watch any video that has vevo in it. all i get is a black screen and a non clickable play button

[hjglantern2814]

What happened to the 'You can skip this ad in..'? VEVO you suck forcing people to watch your stupid ads!

[hjglantern2814]

Not watching this video if there's an ad preceding it.

[susb82]

tiffani amber thiessen looks better with her natural dark hair...recently heard they want her to be on dancing with the stars against snooki lol

[CoolConejo]

Yo, This song is about my Dick.

[Chickkadee123]

i don`t understand the music video.

[Surirygirl]

@Chickkadee123 Me either .... I understand that the girl thinks she is perfect, but what is the story line? most music vids have a base story line and this one was TAT(tiffany) being a jerk to the other girls and the guy singing to the back of her mirror....lol

[Chickkadee123]

@Surirygirl hahaha 

[DrRisk01]

Dang, the lead singer is fine as fuck!

[zenvixen1]

Love this song! Hate beauty pageants!

[iLexxanne]

Love it. <3

[joejonasluverM17]

Love this song!!

[JonquilXoXo]

Everytime I hear this song I just want to go on my porch, smoke a cigarette, and smile at my imperfections :)

[revshadows7]

i was like 8 when this was popular. Oh well still love it.

[joejonasluverM17]

@revshadows7 haha yea me too!

[SCelesteG]

Kelly?

[pfleeger2010]

I miss the days before auto-tune bull shit. I miss the good old days where bands actually had talent.

[firefighterswife05]

'Cause you're a god

And I am not



[allybaba28]

Blast from the past!!! I loved them, especially when I went through my bald man phase :-p

[TheBostonRage]

I started listening to Vertical Horizon because I read Traveling Music by Neil Peart, & he talked highly of this band. Another reason for me to thank Peart! This band rocks!

[PapaCzu1990]

can i still count this as the 90's please

[safarikification]

1,034 people are Gods and 7 aren't

[PapaCzu1990]

@safarikification shut up idiot its getting old

[vuvu5674]

7 people just didnt understand the video

[Ziolon]

[messiahmacari]

7 people dont understand true music when it comes around

[kevinfitz89]

I think the video means inside every sexy ass girl theres a creppy bald dude..

[TTBurger88]

[killer963963]

ohh wow this song brings back memories :)

[odessyrcr589]

[Joyful24Heart]

This group made some great music! Classic!

[chasegran1]

I hate VEVO.

[Mariachi153]

[nlytend1]

it's "goddess" by the way. Great song though

[kteaguezot]

idk why youtube recommended a song from 2000 but that first girl is bomb so i guess i'm satisfied

[TheAdamn999]

i came here cause of (drake and kanye beyond this)

[pulsai86]

thumbs up if u think this should be on rockband or vh having their own rockband game!

[DinofFire]

@pulsai86 Rock band is stupid. Good bands don't need a rock band game. They are good enough to be known without it. You, sir, will be getting a thumbs down.

[sharky1015]

I think Zack Morris was behind her winning this thing! Him and A/C Slater must have been up to their tricks!!! :D

[starstruckidd]

I love this song reminds me of my 9th grade year at TATE high school in Cantonment,Fl and my first crush on a dude Mark B.

[LegendDhaDon]

truth be told i didnt know about this song til i watched Bruce Almighty

[BurnAllison]

@LegendDhaDon dammit i wanna watch bruce almighty now!!! ><

[LegendDhaDon]

@BurnAllison lmaooo :P

[JerseyDevil26]

Even though this came out in 2000 I think this was one of the "last hurrahs" for that awesome 90s sound.

[LinkinParkLyricz]

@JerseyDevil26 Wrong, the song actually did come out in the 90s. 1999 to be exact. The music video was made in 2000

[TheMattathonShow]

@LinkinParkLyricz Yeah, but I bet most people never heard of Vertical Horizon until 2000.

[omaga954]

@JerseyDevil26 It actually came out in 1999 so you're in luck lol.

[abyssalspecter93]

@JerseyDevil26 This and When It's Over by Sugar Ray.

[videodude23]

@JerseyDevil26

What do you mean by that exactly...?

[Tamick8]

Tiffany-Amber Thiessen is fucken hot as shit in this video, dear god...
