NOFX - My Orphan Year (Acoustic) [Myspace Transmissions]

[SparkyTurtle13]

As soon as the song ended, a chill literally went up my spine, punk rock has such emotion

[Mr420ways]

15 dislikes? must be test tube children

[PillzHurr]

This song reminds me of my grandfather, he had heavy dementia barely knew us. He would be happy to see us though. I was little so I thought seeing grandfather was boring so I didn't see him often. On his final hours I was more worried about getting out of CCD than my actualy pap. Wasn't intill the funeral intill I realized how much of a jackass I have been. I do remember one thing though, when I did visit my pap he would always be happy even if he didn't know who I was. Love you pap!

[NinjaBint]

[Amazingcooldude123]

Looking at the comments and how they relate makes me cry even more

[Triviumgirl27]

[MrVanfestel]

[AcexHawk]

[TheMatchup1]

[al3ssandr0123]

:O! la guitarra trastea verdad?

[peopleshit144]

@al3ssandr0123 Al parecer, jaja.

[ztronathon]

At the end of the song, you can tell by the way he looks that he just got out of his soul.

[MrMartindane]

Getting old and soft

[alamlau]

So my Father died without me beside him...

[Aclarado]

it makes the cockles of my heart bleed... the freaking cockles!

[TheSullivan23]

Fat Mike, you made me cry. Love ya man

[xnotchrisbx]

This song speaks so much to me. This just goes to show that there's punk out there that has such true meaning. Beautiful

[JellyPeanutTime]

...One of the best songs i haver heard...

[killer21165]

lose a love one, like a shot in the heart.

[killer21165]

It is truly tough to

[chicagochris1988]

beautiful sounds like my life!

[twiggyboy14]

This is my fav song of all time.!

[niekolas]

Fat mikes voice may not be perfect for a singer but his voice sounds so real it hurts

[theassmanass]

This maks me miss my dad

[mysterydude9]

this is a really touching song

[methozstormrage]

drinking fourth beer

[methozstormrage]

really grewat it can easily say how can a punk song make you cry

[bobyqv2]

I miss your parents too fat mike

[Awesomeman37]

...This always makes me think of my own family...

[blackbloodandbruises]

Mike that was an excellent song.

[freronzio]

.. i love you..

[AsianMohawk]

this is why i like nofx, they have damn good music

[KdogTheReelz]

"Dad, I can forgive you,but I'll never forget" simple, but yet meaningful lyrics. Fat Mike is so underrated

[mraidanpunk]

the reason i <3 NoFX.

as funny as they are, they can really touch the heart with songs like this.

the reason why they are my favourite band, and always will be.

[obaphone]

kids of the k hole was the first nofx song i have ever heard..... to this day i still can not get over how good they sound and how different they can sound on one album.

[420Punkie]

@DrunkRock83 Why do you automatically assume that disliked this video because it wasn't "punk" enough? Why do you automatically assume its the people that only want to hear old NOFX?

[MrPLOXPLOXPLOX]

@DrunkRock83

Is your username inspired by the Bloody Irish Boys' album, Drunk Rock? xD

[subpunk1020v]

@DrunkRock83 maybe they just didnt like the song....

[Stompboxes]

@DrunkRock83 you know some people might just not like the song

[itdestroysme]

when a song is played from the bottom of your heart it can not be a bad song

[jamesmalone2007]

@itdestroysme I think rebecca black's "friday" came from her heart :P

[screendrem]

@jamesmalone2007 Friday came from the money Rebecca's mom spent to hire the production company to make the video and song.

[Que1pasa1trabajar]

That sigh at the end devastates my heart

[VaticanAssassion]

@DrunkRock83 You need to grow up yourself. You're overgeneralizing people, some people may just not like this song. Even if a song does has a deep meaning or a profound message, saying everyone has to appreciate it is ridiculous. And i don't blame the people at the SXSW show. At some times they were out of line but they expected to get drunk and have fun at the show and they got something..different from Fat Mike. Fat Mike is an incredible artist and a genius with punk rock but god dude chill.

[ToryPinkyLyon]

...wow...

[funkiekarateman]

@DrunkRock83 god, that's extremely moving. i feel the same way, bro.

[cloud9savagehenry]

i miss you dad.

[rodup88]

Muthafuckin song. I cant hear it withou a tear in my eye.

[mileon82]

12 people had perfect parents :(

[MeggaDie]

It's all about the message, feeling something. Actually giving a fuck about someone other than our selves which most never do. Growth is a beautiful thing huh? We should do it as one. PS some one on this bus has stinky breath ... lolness xD!!

[thiagodeveloper01]

faltou do nada um som realmente punk tipo pum pa pum pa pum pa e mudando o ritimo.. mais mesmo assim legau o som. não tem cara de nofx essa música mais ta joia ver o mike fazendo um som diferente

[theminegoon]

hey you are missing the clip ! look up retard !

[tonyhawk1423]

@theminegoon your a fag

[theminegoon]

@tonyhawk1423 wooooot why ?

[HeavyMetalMushrooms]

@tonyhawk1423 I think you mean "you're" a fag. If you're going to insult someone do it properly. Fag.

[zolamafia]

Drama od pesme ...

[yoshuaupunk]

my dad sux

[DaNo44]

My hardened gutter punk heart gets a little softer each time I hear this song.

[hodgey1982]

@DaNo44 Same here, never thot a NOFX song would have that effect on me.

[javiercmh]

Really a good song, the first 2 verses i heard made me download it.

A really hard life , fat mike really can make good songs

[Andre3000istcool]

God Dame... a bitch be cryin right now.. <3 NOFX

[Carlos2312]

There's NO WAY that guitar was tuned in standard E

[MrBoredFucker]

@Carlos2312 Ummm... but it is.

[peopleshit144]

@Carlos2312 was tuned in D, dude.

[march2fuzz]

didnt know NOFX cold be deep like this

[Bakery994]

<3

[nakeejake69]

this made me cry. im not afffraid to say it. i love fat mike.

[jimmyjohnjohns]

The fact that he's not the best singer somehow makes it more real. Heavy.

[tikiman900]

One more reason why NOFX is America's greatest punk band.

[gaara0711]

Fat mike, your fans will always be here for you!

[138FrOsTy138]

i always thought fat mike was lame as fuck, seeing this made me feel like a cunt

[transmissionslipping]

I simply love the music... 

[ThirdWaveCrave]

Mike, I'm not sure you'll ever read this, but if there was a song you could be proud of, this'd be the one. They say pride is the deadliest sin. I don't know your views of pride, but in my eyes, this deserves it.

[OllieWilliams20]

This takes alot of guts to get in front of a camera and sing your life story. Hope the twelve of you get sniped :D

[bezumsteeltjuh]

im all cold inside and full of hate and anger i monna play guitar

[monkey93748]

this song is beautyful, he made me cry

make me remeber my girlfriend who died form heart atack

we have a discussion that day i miss her

mike you are my hero

[BozoHC2010]

Fat Mike, Brasil espera por você novamente.

Curitiba está doida pela sua volta.

[Kokta8]

THOSE 12 PEOPLE CLEARLY HAS NO HEARTH...we are with you mike <3

[verydoozy]

12 people cried the first AND second time they heard this song...

[megadeth2thenwo]

[thankyou4thevenom8]

[otex2981]

Once of the Greatest Fat Mike´s Songs Ever...AOFN

[JosephCee]

OMFG! this is actual footage of the recording session of the song that actually came out on the record!!!

[punkrockdario]

Amazing



[shootingYOURstars]

12 people are watching this on Myspace.

[HardcoreSk8trPunk]

This song is so much more sad acoustically. Fat Mike is inspiration.

[BruceLeeKills]

Fuck i diddnt mean for it to sound like that!

[BruceLeeKills]

His parents die and then he gets a divorce Mike, Ur an amazing person

[Recon680]

This makes me almost cry......and I consider myself pretty fuckin hardcore.

[jerryseinfeldisfunny]

Holly fucking shit, I have the same guitar!

[gchopper25]

his face at the end is heartbreaking

[ACE199102840]

This is sad :( :'( -\3

[elmohasaposse]

how can you dislike this

[punkrockdario]

@elmohasaposse

Absolutely right. One of the most emotional songs I've ever heard.

[elmohasaposse]

@punkrockdario yeah :(

[blindfatkid23]

@elmohasaposse Stop caring about what other people like and dislike. If you enjoy this and it speaks to you that's all that matters.

[elmohasaposse]

@blindfatkid23 Well yeah , but im speakless hearing this song so i just wrote what i thought :)

[Nejko2263]

I can't believe that after what happened to Mike, he can still be so fucking funny and stuff.. The dude's my hero.

[SacredRockSoul]

thats fuckin sad :L

[Metaldudehere]

this song is a bitch to play on guitar! so hard to play. such an awesome and sad song

[choochoostites]

sad song :(

[LatigidGolana]

He looked as if he was gonna cry at the very end.....(swollowing lump in throat)

[julicosk8]

Que hijo de puta como duele esta cancion. Maldita sea te quiero Mike, eres mi heroe y de muchos.

[ojosdeperrro]

muy buena, lo siento fat mike !!!

[dumbcanuck42]

what a sad fucking song. it's awesome seeing that my heroes who were celebrated for their "punk rock" accomplishments and antics still have a side of sincerity and conscience.

[redstarpirate]

The bad guys have 'real jobs' and tell you to 'suck it up'. The good guys always get screwed by life and we all learn from their artistry.

[11fiction]

this song is a pain in the ass to learn, fat mike is my hero

[JoannaIsabelle]

Ha, this my life. My mom passed from multiple myeloma last January, and although I have a father, I still feel orphaned. Mom was my everything, quite honestly.

[blindfatkid23]

@JoannaIsabelle i'm sorry :(

[Geckoman02]

@JoannaIsabelle im sorry about that man :(

[sheepman44326]

少年ナイフ好きなのかな？



[unhappybananas]

[patriquelauzier]

@unhappybananas WOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWW

[alaskanadiean64]

[unhappybananas]

@alaskanadiean64 thats cause you're gay

[ukgoon666]

this emotion hits me like a icicle in the gut, fat mike is just true and a lotta people can't take that, nofx are the best band ever

[unhappybananas]

@ukgoon666 shut your mouth hipster.

[SerpentineZERO]

@unhappybananas trolllllll

[Nikko75]

i can feel the pain and the words never told. amazing!!

[rhymessomethinreason]

Shalom Mike...

2008 for me bro, but what can you do but sing about it.

[fishlips5468]

Fuuck. Reminds me of me and My dad... :/

[zeroeffects88]

One of the few older punk bands that still come out with good songs. Can't wait for the next album!

[hodgey1982]

I've listened to this song hundreds of times on the coaster album but just now listeed to this acoustic version. Its so different and so good!! I never really took it serious on the album but damn after hearin this i def teared up during it.. Never thot a fat mike song would make me cry (usually they get me pumped to party) but this one did.. Hat off to you Mike for this song!!!!!

[xnotchrisbx]

Such emotion and such a beautiful song. Not enough people understand that beneath the upbeat rhythm and music, there is such intense emotion. Phenomenal song.

[sikskaterkid11]

Such a change hearing a funny band go to a completely serious subject... great song...

[saitensluvchild]

12 people need to have their heads smashed in.

[dougiedeadflats]

@saitensluvchild Amen brother.

[cruzz903]

@saitensluvchild don't worry about them. spread LOVE.

[SENOJKCID]

His voice is pretty good.

[P3L0745]

che triste... dolce fatmike!

[treynofx]

i teared up too ya'll...idk..nofx is like the most fun spirited band ever, singing bout drinkin, drugs and pokin fun at any and everything (especially politicians) so to hear fat mike go through this and to hear an actual sincere song full of heart and sorrow is really different...my condolences mike

[tact420]

2006 was my orphan year too mike. thanks for the tunes

[FlaminEamonIreland]

Only heard this on The Longest EP, but think I'm gonna head out and buy Coaster now.... Seems like a pretty cool album

[i1dont1give1a1shit0]

12 people are heartless bastards

[TheMonkish]

i never seen fat mike so serious! its sad D:

[Brian65122]

My parents both died in 2010, in totally seperate ways. Ignored it and got smashed for a long time until I heard this song, really got to me, it basically all holds true to me, thatnks fat mike, really tore this shit up!

[Kawasaski65]

10th time listening to this...

[marloBrando444]

enjoy this song til ur parents are ok cuz after facin the evil hearing this kinda stuff hurts, no time for guitars and no time for shit, it hurts

[GodofTrombones]

I think this might be the best ever recording of anything related to NoFX (in a good way)

[hoe273]

[popos22]

[redneckarg]

simple and written from the heart, perfect

[TheHouseoftherisings]

[jagen27]

Fat Mike that song always brings a tear to my eyes when I hear it!

[whocareslol9]

Theres one more thing than just sitting down playing the guitar and singing at the same time. Theres also nailing it and that is what fat mike is doing. Hes the man for sure

[aggresivextones]

So sad

[hoe273]

An this is why fat Mike is the Man

[CiscoTheMan]

This song basically tells my life story,really beautiful and well written,great job Fat Mike, great job.
