my boyfriend told me this song was written about me :) he introduced me to pete & pete, and i haven't found a show that i love more. i really miss my childhood. the '90's were the absolute best <3
in the 90s i remember Clerks I, Pete & Pete, grunge (much to my amusement), and how much different things were then. it all seemed it was meant to be in black and white
damn i love this show, simpler times for me. summer of 96, watching this then hanging out with my cousins, riding our bikes everywhere, fighting other neighborhood kids, making forts in the park.
pete and pete is one of those things that when i see/hear it it, it like drops my heart and stomach out like in an elevator, but in a good way, to the past
me and my buddy 20 years old tripping so hard and geekin to this music and pete and pete. that was a great time in my life ahh if i could only get those back what would be different today
@Alann4stars The 80's screwed up because we all know Marty McFly had to stay on some train tracks with the time machine, BOOM came a train, BAM a time machine to go back to the 90's destroyed.
It's alot like Summerbaby because the first time you hear it you just think, fuck.... this is my very favorite song in the world.... you could go mad trying to find this feeling again.
Fuck this is a great song.. it speaks to me about my beautiful girl... and shit Mark if you ever seen this I am so so very very sorry that your woman died.... I can never express my sadness for you and I empathize with you.... Luckily for me I am sick and dying and I will die before my woman, and though it will hurt her and my family, I will be free, and I cannot help it anyway...
Fuck..... this song will be forever embedded in my soul.
My Childhood is Missing and I cant Find it....... Wait I just found it in this fuckin Song Man Pete and Pete was truly a show to grow up on taught me some Life Lessons even when I didnt even know it man Nick is such a Joke now I want the 90s back so bad just to see this show on T.V 1 more time
@Ieatbabyseals: like hell it was. I loved Nirvana, and it broke me up when Kurt Cobain died; and then 'nu metal' came along and reduced your average teenager's IQ by twenty points. Nickelodeon had good shows, mind.
Eh, I totally loved nick though...That's mostly the reason why I want a time machine. Just so I can go back and enjoy the suburbs, and kids shows of my generation.
A very sweet and innocent song. It was usually the soundtrack to a Big Pete/Ellen episode. In the two episodes where they actually kiss ("Day of the Dot" and "Time Tunnel"), this song plays during the end credits.
Absolutely legendary. The show and the music. After we all inevitably murder one another in some sort of armageddon, this show should be what's left for humans to be remembered by.
Everything now sucks, when it comes to forms of entertainment for kids. Everything is totally dumbed down; it's totally insulting to the intelligence of kids (kids are way smarter than most people think, and more perceptive than most adults.) There are no shows with any kind of artistry to them, like Pete and Pete; all the cartoons suck too.
Usually ends of decades always suck, people are tired with the fads, fashions, shows, films. Time to move on to another decade, here's hoping it brings some awesome fads.
If you notice most decades usually copy the decade 20-30 years before it. The 80s was a lot like a reinvention of the 50s, 90s was a lot like the 60s and 70s. This decade is kind of like the late 70s-mid 80s, except a lame version of it. So what's next after that? a reinvention of the 90s, I think the 2010s will be very 90s.
@Sshelly34213 You nailed it. As every generation comes of age, they collectively bring about a recycling of the decade they grew up in. It's the philosophy behind what we're doing on our channel...
@Internetclub91 Indeed! I personally would like to wear more fashions similar to the 90s, listen to music similar to that of 90s music. I feel as if I will inevitably bring back 90s fads.
I have a theory that whatever you hear/see as a young child from ages 5-8, is what inevitably shapes your psyche. If you were 5-8 during 90s culture, pure 90s culture and not millennium or a mixture of late 80s/early 90s culture, your psyche was shaped by it. (Grunge, cartoons, attitude, the fashion etc...)
@Internetclub91 The people who are currently in charge of what fads teens/kids experience were 5-8 during the 70s and 80s. Transformers was a popular tv show in the 80s and has been brought back in the 00s. flare jeans were popular in the 70s and were brought back in the late 90s. Since then skinny jeans have been brought back.
I'm not sure what the next decade will bring considering that the 90s was a mixture of the culture of many decades.
@Sshelly34213 I'm 26 years old, so I'm right there with the late 80s/early 90s nostalgia. We could probably say the 2010s will completely reconsume the 90s, leading up to a Y2K nostalgia around 2020. But who really knows what the grungebags of the future will do.
@Sshelly34213 when we're all living in space and it seems that the fashion might be uniform unitards that are all different colors designating our function or trade, plaid shirts fit jeans and cheesy brand names will make a comeback
@goldsmice wow, i totally agree with you. it really bothers how people seem to have come to think that kids are stupid and need to be talked down to. These older shows dared to have kids who dared to stand out and had big words and complex stories, its just so.... kinda makes me feel the generation who is growing up dumbed down
I once wrote a short story for a creative writing class in HS that was heavily based on "How I Spent My Summer Vacation" and got an A. So I will have to second
MPHswayze's suggestion that you knock off Pete and Pete and you will get what you want.
