  • ganda great song

  • this song gets better each time i watch it i wish i had been born with the birth of 311

  • i wanted to find a crew and run down the same street like they did 311 and the toadies should have played on the same roster as for the 311 myth that it stands for kkk its really a police code for lewd acts or something like that peace.

  • indescent exposure

  • I miss the '90s.

  • fuck yeah 311 and kmk comin to my town on saturday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • 1995

  • Comment removed

  • i think 311 is one of those bands that everyone has heard their songs and loves their music, but they don't know who the band is. LOL

  • yeah i think ur right...lol

  • You're kidding, right? This album was released in 1995, and it was their breakthrough. Trust me, they were crazy popular back then, when Blake Lewis was still in high school. Besides, they have plenty of other hits, you should check them out...

  • wow you suck at life they were crazy popular back in the day.

  • de que año este tema?

    What year is this song? its very good!!!

    Thanks

  • I love the police code for nudity.

  • Fuck the nay-sayers! I love sublime but you cant compare 311 to them! totally different bands...just enjoy them both!

  • sublime would've been way better than this band if the brad never died.

  • I swear if I could sit on the lead singer's face once i would die a happy girl.

  • hope your a woman if so u can sit on mine lol j/k

  • this band reminds me of sublime

  • 311 is way better. no comparison

  • FUCK THE NAY SAYERS hah Fuck all of them 311 is the shit there concerts are amazing and there music is crazy good so IM Down With The Unity!!

  • Pirate stop trying to force your uninformed and regurgitated candy story conspiracy on people. You're obviously not a credible occult researcher. If you were, you'd be discussing the Solomon Seal stars in the background, not the number juggling of the title. You're the reason people don't take alternative history seriously. To the rest of you... go 311

  • homeboy-

    you are fucking retarded

  • yah they just really like having all those different races in their videos, and a half mexi in the band. people think too much without their brains

  • u stupid fuck 311 doesnt stand for KKK

    its police code for indecent exposure..Jim Watson was skinny dipping and got a ticket for indecent exposure(311) thats where he got the band name from...god ur fucken idiot... know ur music and quite hatting ... HATERS!!!

  • Yo, your fucking dumb

  • wow dude youve got to be the most retarded person alive.

    know what your talking about before you talk.

  • Ya well one of the band members is Mexican. So your totally off!!!

  • SA Martinez...

  • im going to that show when they are with ziggy

  • yeah dude me too on July 4th in Atlanta!

  • yeah i saw them last night with ziggy and the expendables it was aawweessoommeeee

  • i could listen to this song like 800 times in a row. It blows i live in maine and these guys are in Boston i got the money for the ticket just no ride ='[

  • Maine's awesome, what are you talking about. The local music around here is the best. How can you not like having WCYY as your local station.

  • I love the guitar riff on this song... it's just so dope and catchy...

  • 311 kicks ass and thats final

  • amen

  • i love laying on the beach with my girlfriend listing to you're songs! 5/5 and faved =)

  • 311 playing local. wonderin if i shall go. Playing with Ziggy Marley can't be wrong.

  • fuck...dude i wish i could... if u have that chance, take it.

  • old school, reminds me of when i was about 10

  • I love 311 <3

  • don't be so damn retarded 311 is also the police code for indecent exposure...

  • i was listening to some marley and the opening song before natural mysic sounds exactly like.. you guessed it.... just ype in natural mystic and it should be the one where the "all mixed up" sounding song startes playing....

  • yea your so right... i have been searching for this I was listening to natural mystic and was like this sounds sooooooooo familiar

  • They feel like a rip-off of sublime to me.

    But there still OK.

  • 311 and sublime hit the national scene in a big way about the same time. . . both of them had underground success before that but I don't think they were ripping each other off. . . but bradley nowell died before sublime could start to suck like 311 has.

  • Sublime and 311 did not get along Sublime erased their sample board on one of the warp tours Sublime owns 311. Sublime would never suck like 311 does now

  • ... wow. they were doin shiz wen eric was doin 40oz to freedom. ever heard of grassroots buddy?

  • i wuz just thinkin the same thing

  • xdeez your a fucking tool haha

  • hmmmm,ohhh

  • I love this song.....and know the feeling daily!! Great vid.....

    thanks for the share....ML

  • hummm

  • You guys dont know anything about this band ... theyre called 311 because between each member thats how many condoms they could put on together

  • Their name came after a few of the members were arrested for nudity in a public pool. The police code was 311 and stuck on as a joke.

  • nay, they got it from one of the members getting a 311, or i think it was one of their friends who later died, and 311 in police code is public nudity

  • No, haven't you heard, 311 stands for the KKK. The eleventh letter is K. Hence. KKK. They're a devil band! LOL!

    I'm sure you've heard those right? j/k

    No, you're right about the public nudity thing.

  • thanks do you know where i could buy are snare such as that

  • Any good vented snare could give you the same sound. I have an OCDP custom vented 7 x 14 and I can get this exact sound out of it

  • does anybody know what type of snare the drummer uses

  • Its A EBZ25

  • He uses lots of different piccolos and OC vented snares...

  • my gut instict is that there is no connection between 311 the band and any racist organization, and i point to their opening encouragement of marijuana. I haven't met too many racist weed smokers and I tend to think that the herb diminishes any such feelings of ignorant hate

  • its like the police code for like nudity or something and there ex guitarist got charged with that so thats what they named the band after being named the fish hippos haha thank god for the name change. nooo racist connection what so ever.

  • i'm thinking if they were racist, Doug Martinez wouldn't be in the band. Not too many Mexicans in the KKK, at least I assume there aren't.

  • LOL!

  • keep telling yourself that.

  • This is a very good song. When I teach my kid, I play this song when i teach him about "instincts" and trusting your gut when with others. Let's say it's musical, but it sticks in the mind!!!!

  • yeah,that kkk thing is b.s.they made 311 the band name because in nebraska, (where theyre from) the police code for indecent exposure is 3 11,and yeah there is a hispanic in the band

  • what does a hispanic in the band have to do with the fucking kkk? the kkk hates blacks.....wow

  • actually they hate anyonce of the dark colored race and i think they hater jews and catholic people too.

  • the kkk hates blacks, catholics, jews, and pretty much most ethnic groups.

  • you're dumb.

  • Personally it's silly to find out a band's name. I can make something up with 311 like hey they are three guys who love to have sex with 11 women. There you go another "hidden meaning" of the band's name.

  • 3/11 day is no where near as 4/20 ..... :]

  • im not sure but i heard 311 is racist because the 11th letter in the alphabet is k and k three times is....... well you know and im not saying its true i just wanna know

  • Isn't one of their members Hispanic?

  • not true

  • no there not when ever they come to Boston snoop dog comes with them and opens up and its a police code no for the letters in the alphabet

  • happy 311 day

  • Happy 3/11 day! I completly fergot till 3:30, and missed 3:11pm dammitttt oh well, cheers!

  • HAPPY 311 DAY, Stay Positive and Love Your Life- RYAN

  • im seeing them april 30th!!

  • I saw them in concert with Matisyahu when they came to St. Louis also when they came to St. Louis with Snoop Dogg, everytime they come to the STL I can't get enough of it. Have fun at their concert because the people get rowdy as a motha fucka lol.

  • seriously bro don't go, that concert WILL suck

  • i might too the ampithetre will be sick!

  • Comment removed

  • go shit in your hat

  • If you promise you'll wear it

  • how'd you get the name prick?

  • I'm Ricky the Pricky

  • Hey Rick, how about you shut the hell up before I silence you?

  • I like 311 and all, but you, sir, are a jackass.

    Might I remind you that your on the internet?

  • lol kk cool

  • hahah watch out mate hes gonna silence you XD

  • lol ooooooo creeeepyyy ahahahah

  • omg lmao i love this band, my cousin gave me one of their CD's and i never knew the name of the band until today haha i got that CD in like 2002 and now i just learned their name..im slow =[..but w/e great band. :D

  • one of my favorites from the nineties. The nineties will never come back. This makes me very sad, in the end. Such good shit back in those days : (

  • theres definately more shit bands than good ones, but just remember that there are many amazing musicians out there - jeff beck, ween, chili peppers, ratatat etc. 311 is alright though

  • wow, 311 is like one of the only good bands left in music today

  • lol..311 is good..but don't kid yourself man...haha

  • No, I'm being serious, what have we got today? Total shit- Emo is taking over, and we got bullshit like Nickelback and all that crap.

  • yeah basically , everything is mainstream crap, this isnt along with a few bands that stay original

  • people said the same thing about this band in the later half of the 90's.

    any way i always thought this song was by that guy called snow.

  • Ever heard of progressive metal?

  • i wish you guys would stop using the word stealing and replace it with sampling. ice ice baby is a completelyfuckingdifferent song than under pressure

  • ok accept ive never been to Nebraska but nice try guy and  y dont you tell me which bands they rip off......?

  • People who only think of smoking pot when they hear reggae do not, can not, appreciate reggae music...which explains why you all probably love this crap.

  • you smell bad

  • im with you there man. reggae is all about the mood. you gotta sway with it. feel the rhythm thats what makes you feel good

  • I miss these days. Used to f'm love these guys. Saw them many times in concert. Guess I had forgot about them when our country went to shit back in '01.

  • I remember heraring this song on the radio when I was like 4 and I was like damn! this sounds great! so every time I hear this song it brings back memories...

  • I wish he'd make me his drugstore gaywad so I could grab his tit too!

  • Maybe you'd have better luck if he grabbed yours, your man boobs are enormous.

  • pretty sure ive never heard any other bands that sound like them  give an example guy

  • I wouldnt expect you to know of any Jamaican reggae bands, U're probably from Omaha where they dont even play that kind of music. Its ok, its not your fault pal.

  • fucks it matter they got their own style and u obviously like them too so stop bein a tool

  • jus give an example of a real reggae group or song that sounds like this...

  • Ummmm, 311

  • Sublime is one of the most diverse bands i can think of. they can switch from smooth reggae to punk rock, to ska, then back to reggae all in the same song, and do quite often. what jamaican reggae artist do they steal that shit from?

  • Type in Buddy Bye by Johnny Osbourne and compare it to Sublime's Caress me down.

  • Start from 1:10

  • you're right. they have the same bass line. i can't deny that. However, sublime is still unlike any other band. All musicians have influences and steal stuff all the time. That doesn't mean they are ripping songs off.

  • Chicago stole a riff from Led Zepplelin's "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You", and put it in their song "25 or 6 to 4", but Chicago is still a respectable band with many original songs. Later, in the 90s, Green Day also took the riff and put it in "Brain Stew". Jimmy Page even addmitted to hearing the age old blues riff somewhere and using it himself.

    My point is, all of those songs have the same riff, but they are in no way "rip offs" of the other songs.

  • Sublime took a simple bass line and made an entirely different song with it

  • Thanks for having a civil debate with me. I really appreciate it. By the way, I think Vanilla Ice stole a bass line and got sued for it.

  • Yeah man, i've heard about that. Hip hop artist DO steal songs, and they just rap over them.

    And thank you for being civilized as well. Discussions like these are why I love youtube

  • Want to know the biggest Thief of them all ? Look at EVERY last one of Pffy's songs. He hasn't made a original song since he been around.

  • queen? perhaps.

  • Pressure from Billy Joel. He stole the hell out of it.

  • he took the bassline from "Under Pressure" which was NOT done by billy joel...but as a duet between Queen and David Bowie. He added a Hi-Hat percussion at the end of it, and looped it. the Hi-Hat gave it enough of a difference to not be copyright infringement

  • yeah ive been a sublime fan since i was like 10, and they did sample a lot of music. artist have been sampling other artist forever, its the most flattering thing a band can do.

  • you are right. what better way to show a fellow muscian respect than by acknowledging their great sound, and borrowing it to convey your own ideas musically.

  • hahaha I did it scared me =D

  • this song is fucking awesome...

    words can't describe the flow and vibes it gives off

  • the cool reggae/rock sound..i miss the 90's

  • quit comparing bands great song

  • hey thats cool. its just my opinion. a lot of people like 311. alot of people also like sublime. it really does not help that bradley died and sublime is no more. i just think at times 311 is alot like sublime but its ok. im starting to like them more now.

  • fuck yeah thisd song kiks fuckn ass!!!

  • heh heh, australia

  • Reminds me of the smokey, THC filled haze that was for me the late 1990's. Good times (if I can remember!)

  • sounds like sublime but they both rock both sortof stoner music

  • i like Finch better

  • A nice, good, baked song.

    lvoe it

  • 311 fan 4 life. Since I was like 12. Fanatic live!

  • no hatin 311 and sublime both rock peace free love and pot smoking be legal

  • naw if ur gonna get high to a 311 song its beyond the grey sky

  • not a better 311 song to do so if i may say.........hit it and get it
