[TheElectricThought]

34 people never had a ball & chain. 

[joyakkey1]

@TheElectricThought cannot tell if trying to be clever...or just stupid and trying to fit in

[bakaneko1337]

@joyakkey1 I didn't realize there was a difference when it came to Youtube comments, haha.

[TheElectricThought]

@joyakkey1 No just stating the obvious.

[TheElectricThought]

@joyakkey1 Besides why would i want to fit in with you? :/

[joyakkey1]

@TheElectricThought because i can buy and sell you, bitch.

[TheElectricThought]

@joyakkey1 lol Ok im just here to listen to one of my favorite bands xD

[ihavetheherpes]

[TheElectricThought]

@ihavetheherpes Very cool story he should tell it again.

[DJGTechHL]

@ihavetheherpes @TheElectricThought Interesting tale, brother. Care to re-tell it?

[monsterbeth]

I feel this so much right now! I just can't take anymore pain...

[theacidpunk]

Have not play'd saints row 3, and I listen to this

[Oisandwich]

oh wow i finally seen a youtube commercial i like which was really a music video Billy D and The Hoodoos - Fifty good job on that they were jammin the fuck out

[MrManuelstrokes]

this is the one song i would turn all the way up so wouldn't listen to my parents fight

[acashfan1]

@MrManuelstrokes Sorry to hear that... this music (this song too) is a comforter to many.. if it helps you escape that sound then CRANK IT! Good luck to you.

[TheFlannelMonkey]

Im tired of all these comments about saints row 3, im glad you guys like the song, more power to you, but its annoying.

[TwiztidJosh]

f*cking love this song

[LoveBronkas]

Wtf is saints row?

[xevoz628]

@LoveBronkas A game where you can drive a car with a bunch of radio stations. It is also about killing people and stuff..

[californiagil]

Mike Ness, lyrical genius!

[ImmaEminem]

like if you knew this song way before saints row 3 :D:D

[Vinniesol]

That guy just jizzed himself in 1:14 :cerealguy:

[scutler123456789]

like if saints row 3 got you here



[GirlsLie7]

@scutler123456789 , lame .......... as fuck , if that got you here haahahahaha fackn fag

[PinkFloydFan74]

@GirlsLie7 No need for that. It's obviously a good song. Yes, the game brought me here, and I'm glad it did.

[TwiztidJosh]

@GirlsLie7 this song is a classic, its pure talent, unlike lil wayne, all he gotta do is mumble stupid shit, and get a cool beat for 20 bucks, and have his manager master it, and he made millions from stupid ignorent teens who dont know what talent is, lil wayne does a few good song though that are talent, like past experiences and his views on this world like dropping it on your f*cking your head cuz ur a ignorent dum f*ck who doesnt see talent in things people sing, rap/do

[GirlsLie7]

@TwiztidJosh your calling me a dumb fuck, your fucking retarted dude, you messaged the guy.

[aaaassseeeffggdff]

@GirlsLie7 dude i just saw the whole conversation thing you got going on here, i just wanted to say chill out dude.

[GirlsLie7]

@aaaassseeeffggdff i was saying i knew tha song wayyy before saints row3. and that if he barely he found out it about this classic now, then he's a johnny come lately new comer. peace out, i mesaaaged tha dude cuz i was trolling his ass . twistd josh

[aaaassseeeffggdff]

@GirlsLie7 Lmao, fair enough. i'll just stay out of it.

[clubdrift123]

@GirlsLie7 You may want to check "your" spelling before calling others "retarded" next time. Just saying.

[GirlsLie7]

@clubdrift123 i understand how to spell retarded. It's just I type fast and don't really care if I miss spell a word on you tube.

[BassWhiz92]

These commercials are really pissing me off

[shelleyinthecity]

What the piss is Saints Row? I first saw this video when the song first came out years ago and fell in love with this band.......that is why I am here.

[NUFC2010100]

@shelleyinthecity It's a game :)

[CobraliciouZ]

viva el punk n roll

[AriaRobbieX]

This is my favorite song!!! I listen to this in Saints Row the Third multiple times...

[ravendan968]

Better than all the shit on the radio that they pass for music nowadays...

[PunksNotDead82]

everyone but the drummer looks like greasers

[sanctuaryforthelost]

Music used to be good. what happened.

[LocoRico89]

Green Day can go suck it...Pop punk is shit

[simplee67]

@LocoRico89 Without the pop punk Ramones there'd be no Social D

[Angelito15Crack]

i dont cry y.y

[ashtreyhead]

or maybe in the county jail.......

[TheHyde900]

Thanks Saints Row: The Third

[DurbinMiles1026]

@TheHyde900 I'm happy that other forms of media can bring people into other great forms of media. :)

[SHADOWFUR01]

@TheHyde900 You LITERALLY heard this song from Saint's Row 3?!

This is a great song and band!

Where have you been?

[TheHyde900]

@SHADOWFUR01 I dont know... but this, this is.. oh god.. my ears give me thanks

[ANTHRAXVRIS]

[RylandSmith66]

I would do anything to meet this guy. I mean the first time i heard this song was Saints Row: The Third. I fell in love it when I heard. SOCIAL DISTORTION IS THE BOSS!

[casacooper]

@RylandSmith66

[theghouls75]

[OkThisllbeMyName]

thank you, saints row the third, thank you, volition, or i'll never have a chance to listen to this good 'ol songs

[emopuppy123456789]

@OkThisllbeMyName next time dont comment.

[redwolf879]

@poobumdickie1 because its great thats why so shut your mouth

[poobumdickie1]

the music is boring, singer is awful, lyrics are childish, whiny and uninspiring. i don't understand how this has over a million hits.

[chappy4756]

@poobumdickie1 and you're a useless troll, fuck off.

[KyleMcGyle]

@poobumdickie1 do something productive other than bashing people for having more talent than you. You sir are simple.

[tabbernakel1]

"I used to fuck her but its all wanking now"

[ZDLR221]

"I used to love her but I had to kill her"

[PrinceMoogle]

lol im playing saints row 3 now and this is playing at the same time as on sr3 IRONEY LOL

[Volcomstylee138]

I have the biggest crush on Mike Ness circa 1990. He was so hot!

[steelgurra]

Thumbs up if you are here because Social D are THE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD

[PrinceMoogle]

this is my fVORIT SOng in saints row 3

[128seanathin]

@PrinceMoogle same here man! best song in sr3

[Joebell2412]

saints row the third.

[showbert22]

Social D is still touring too. Played Phoenix just a couple weeks ago. Saw many live shows both working and paying. Wouldn't waste a minute or a penny for Poison.

[DJGTechHL]

@showbert22 I really want to see him again. I was on stage with him in 2004. I hope he comes to Seattle soon.

[ollukex]

I was expecting to see comments like "...click like if Saints Row 3 brought you here". Anyway, Saints Row The Third took me here. Cool song.

[MrNeekappa]

@ollukex same here :)

[hardcoreguru]

The young Mike Ness kinda looks like the lead singer of Avenged Sevenfold.

[chefextra]

@hardcoreguru its not mike ness

[daibkid]

awesome stuff by social D.

[mw599]

Saints Row 3!

[jdg8124]

Why would anyone dislike this?

[swine74]

Poison's Ball & Chain is a little better

[nicogreens1]

@swine74 POISON IS FOR FAGSSSS

[MJfanSC2007]

@nicogreens1 Poison is still touring and selling out so you are a fag for being shallow minded.

[warrenb2010]

@MJfanSC2007 dude sorry to say this to you but poison is one of the worst band that has ever existed. glam is for fags. Social D is fuckin rad. this is music. even though its their most over played song, its still good. i cant listen to poison even if my life depended on it lol

[MJfanSC2007]

@warrenb2010 dude first of all, im not a dude and the word "dude" is so played out. And no one cares that you cant personally listen to them.As mentioned they still selling out to this day. They have many on their fanbase they wouldnt need your approval anyways. for you info...poison has sold just as many albums has this "punk" band has... over 30 million worldwide. So that doesnt make them one of the "worse" bands as you put. If so, then your band is too.

[SixStringOwnage]

@swine74 It's shit. Deal with it.

[Warrant4evr]

Pretty much describes my life

[thatmachine100]

its awesome that this song is in saints row 3.....best song in saints row 3 in my opionion

[neo61270]

Thank Saint Row The Third for teaching me this group

[leisurelydinner]

zzZZZzzzzZZZzz

[breenboyz]

Saints Row III<33333



[riotloserface19]

Mike Ness is GOD <3

[riffraff117]

didn't go to see them in nola last month.... fml

[xXMaDEllXx]

Why are people moaning about this being on Saints Row? Surely that's better that it's been included in a game's soundtrack, because it means it will be introducing this music to a wider audience, especially younger people. If Social Distortion are your favorite band, wouldn't you prefer it if more people started to become aware of them or listen to them? Love this song & I love Saints Row 3..... Personally I'm happy that it's on the game.

[riffraff117]

@xXMaDEllXx i agree that is all.

[DrTritus]

@xXMaDEllXx My thoughts exactly. :)

[SixStringOwnage]

@xXMaDEllXx I personally don't like it when loads of people start listening to the same thing as me, but, I wouldn't have known this song without Saints Row, even though know I've known Social Distortion for a while. So thank you Saints Row!

[LAMBKILLER]

@SixStringOwnage It's better that loads of people are listening to good music performed by talented musicians than the pop music that seems to be all the music industry is focused on. If more of us listen to the good stuff, they'll start recording more of it again. What's going on now is as bad as the disco era was.

[Onslaughtlol]

@xXMaDEllXx Haha speaking of that.. I love the game and found this song through it. I even made a playlist in the game with this song only! :D Both the game and song rocks.

[Winnetka4]

@xXMaDEllXx exactly how I first heard this song

[tinytuc123]

@xXMaDEllXx The reason I came here was because of Saints Row. 

[willfalo1]

some very underated and underappreciated bands in the late 80s and early 90s before grunge took over. jane's addiction, sonic youth, rancid, and of course social distortion

[madascene99]

SR3 got me here. It was playing during the Stag VTOL mission, so fitting it was. What a song it is, sad that I didn't hear it before but glad I have now.

[JugglingG]

Thumbs up if you're listening to depressing music on christmas.

[NPetitt35]

@JugglingG what if you're listening to it on new years ^^

[SherphiK]

my high school talent show bring me here..

[trooper314]

like if yourself brought you here

[jmikeyj4]

i have been drinking since a half past noon

[afmiller52]

@jmikeyj4 why did you wait till half past noon?

[jmikeyj4]

@afmiller52 excellent point

[joenathanmilner]

@jmikeyj4 everyday..



[SleepyDisso]

Who the FUCK cares about a video game?

[RappieRein]

@SleepyDisso I like ur face

[securityinnumbers]

Check out our brand of punk!! Social Distortion is a huge influence!

[blackops123400]

This needs more views

[shasweetthang]

"you can run all your life, but not go anywhere."

..how depressing, but how true

[jimmyhayers]

I prefer Sublime and The Vandals. Different song but I don't care they are better.

[TheRobreed3]

I meant write.

[TheRobreed3]

Make it a punk band to right a better county song then anything in the past 15 years.

[criley0007]

w8 why does it say "epic" "pop" in the tags?

[okcmallrat]

"You can run all your life, but not go any where" - still running

[carguy12345678910]

@okcmallrat cause social d fans are the real honest working class people that hit rock bottom in life. ball and chain can be anything negative in your life.

[TheQuagine]

i listened to this before Saints Row: The Third

[Zolrak666]

@TheQuagine Good for you

[casacooper]

ahh geez… these guys used to rehearse at Hully GUlly… sometimes I amaze myself when I think of the people I have met!

[rkaisersd]

i just saw social d for the first time last weekend and it was amazing. i wish kids in my school could enjoy this kind of music

[bettybeanie]

not the comercial

[pkstaaarstorm]

Some of the best (and if you're like me, relate-able) lyrics I've ever heard. I almost peed when this came on the radio in Saints Row the Third.

[ebefrrll]

HOTTEST GUY IN THE WORLD!!!

[wendy31277]

25 people are just ..stupid

[casacooper]

@wendy31277 shows what little you know

[bravegrrl]

rocked out at almost acoustic but bush was a better performance

[cici805princess]

Mike Ness is a Fucking God!!

sexy mofo right here!!

[plantguy666]

@cici805princess Just saw them in concert. that dude has not aged well. they were good though.

[cici805princess]

@plantguy666 really aww wtf.. sooo envying you right now!

i need to see them asap!

its killing me haha

[punkheavymetal]

Se eu quisesse ver publicidade não estaria no youtube !

[punkheavymetal]

@punkheavymetal quero assitir videos e aparecem publicidade aff ¬¬

[baggypantstoo]

everything they do is awesome I want them to come back to Victoria

[brainiacgames]

Hate to break it to you, but this is country music.

[vampirehunter42]

@brainiacgames It is more of both punk and country. Most great music is a gray area on what "type" it is.

[JoeDawgJC]

Social Distortion are punk gods, and personally, my favorite band of all time, they can write a song just about every mood I'm in possible. And I just have the feeling half of the people on here don't know this song is about alcoholism, my dad who is a huge Social D fan, thought it was about divorce.

[BiIk0n11]

@JoeDawgJC It was actually about Mike Ness's heroin addiction, although it could be about anything you want it to be.

[songwen0]

gangstaboy10 is right, i love SD now due to saints row, this song is so epic in the right scene duing the game

[gangstaboy10]

Well I have to say it, People saying "fuck saints row" you are such posers. Real SD fans are glad this is on saints row. Saints row is a gangster based modern day game and they put this song on there. That helps all these modern day brats hear real music and that equals more SD fans. No one should be complaining because saints row is bringing more fans into old rock music. And lets face it, Rock music needs to re take over this era! SD forever \m/

[TheDancingKetchup]

dude kinda looks like rulebreaking-laundromat-lady from that one episode in Friends

[Misfitgraves23]

Don't forget about Reach for the Sky in Midnight Club: LA  :)
