Sublime Pool Shark Acoustic

[DaNo44]

This song will just never fail to influence my mood.. for better or worse.. sometimes I'm glad I don't feel like that anymore.. sometimes I still feel like that.

[MalibuBarbieee]

thumbs up if you're still jammin' in 2012.

RIP bradley.

NEVER forgotten.

[OMGxITSxROSIE]

get itt brad! so much emotion....

YOU ARE MISSED. R.I.P. <3

[isgod1]

i never ever want to hear rone do a cover of this.........

[lileeanuh08]

these were real fucking pits , none of that wack shit of now a days !

[zLiTHiiuM]

He lost the war. Wish you were back Brad. R.I.P.

[smoke2jointz05]

im sure you're tearin it up in heaven bradley<3

[JeffCaitlin23]

he can't even bring himself to finish that line, so sad

[JeffCaitlin23]

When I'm dopesick that line goes through my head again and again, "one day I'm gonna lose the war..."

[kjghart]

@JeffCaitlin23 you will too one day lose the war

[JeffCaitlin23]

I can relate so much to this song. I always listen to it when I'm feeling down. I've been addicted to opiates for the past 12 years and I think that heroin addiction is one of the hardest battles a person can fight. RIP Brad. And to everyone else out there struggling with heroin addiction - Never give up. There is always hope, even if it doesn't seem that way.

[mburke1996]

sadly bradley lost the war

[IAmCommSheprd]

This song has the kind of pure true emotion that other artists can only dream about.

[rsohlich1]

One of the saddest, yet most beautiful songs in the world. Never ceases to give me chills every time I hear it.

[Goldshteyn88]

First few seconds sound like "If I could Save Time"

[MariiekeA7x]

Bradley Nowell became my idol since I discovered him, he is not popular at all in Holland, and I don't remember how I did discover sublime but I know the first song I heard of them was santeria, a good song, and I already loved sublime, but when I heard badfish I was so overwhelmed by the meaning of the song, it touched me harder than anything ever. Just like this song. It's just so touching, and so true. Bradley, you will never be forgotten, my hero, forever.

[MrBloodybullet]

i grew up listening to sublime they are one my favorite bands im not gonna lose the war

[dreadface101]

This song gives me chills as i'm sure it does for everyone... but it really gives you a look into what brad was going through... and this song really makes me sad thinking of brad. But happy that we got the music we did from it . RIP brad. We miss you dearly.

[DaNo44]

I made the mistake of not listening to Sublime much the last couple months. I further made the ill advised decision to listen to this song for the first time in awhile while perusing youtube drunk.. needless to say it yielded tears and reminded me of why Sublime will forever be untouched as the most influential music that has ever been in my life.

[mistertommyo]

i really get goosebumps every SINGLE time i hear this song man.

[ShoutingParalized]

I wish this song was longer...

[ecary9]

Bradley last night I hope I made your ghost happy at our show. I poured out a fanta naranja for you, it was all we had at the moment! FUCK LADY GAGA one day our music will make her cry

[ribsandwhisky]

i miss you man!

[theprofessor223]

i shot up heroin to the real version of this song

[ribsandwhisky]

I LOVE THIS MOFO! I'M THE LUCKY ONE, KICKED THE RIG! SUBOXONE ONLY FROM NOW ON. my line fuckers!!

[deewhyelayin]

@ribsandwhisky lol im on suboxone too, 7 months clean FTW

[phreshfutbol]

Wow



[TheOPIBS]

@jmort95 might wan't to check the spelling first

[csanders173]

Heroin is bad..... Mmkay.

[JMort95]

should i get "one day im gonna loose the war" tatted on me? no one lives forever

[DrinkGasPissFire]

1:00 so much passion and energy...thats real music friends!

[astubbs1986]

@ benjaravari: how bout you shut your fucking face. asshole

[benjavari]

How is this acoustic? In the middle it shift's to electric label your song's right.

[beetlebum24]

i really miss when music was actually music not any techno or hip hop bullshit but i miss when music made sense and would actually mean something by sending messages through heart felt songs now theyre all about money and gang life which is bull dude theres hardley gang life in la anymore well at lest i know most celebs werent in them i fuckin hope that when i die there will be a concert of just sublime bob marley jimmie jim morrison i hope

[SenorPackABowl]

Search pool shark, the first suggestion, sublime, i love it, none other bitch so dont sing it, nor try to play it like brad.

[gatorftb1]

search relaxatives pool shark

[TheAlexanderdrums]

song is a sad song to me, R.I.P Bradley James Nowell, and screw all the hatrs out there, Bradley was the best

[BobDoleNSatanRmyniGz]

Jim Morrison, Jimmy Hendrix, Layne Stayley, Kurt Cobain, Brad Noel, John Lennon, Dimebag Darrel, ...... Fuck recording and distribution companies straight up their faggot fucking asses.

[beetlebum24]

@dbabbjr

true wthout brad there is no sublime but i dont know i cant understand hm trying to take fame and pride in singing someone elses creatons of music through heartfelt problems he just shouldnt and he could never be compared to brad so fuck rome i dont care what people say i find this complete utter bullshit

[dtripz905]

R.I.P Bradley Nowell, this song always gives me chills

[TXROCKHOUND900]

@dtripz905 WORD!

[ratmajat22]

Most beautiful acoustic song ever... comin from somebody who loves acoustic everything

[bdassvids]

i'm not gonna say fuck rome or nothing, but he better stay away from this shit

[TheeeForttt]

@bdassvids then ill say it. FUCK ROME, and he better stay away from this shit.

[jeroen628]

@TheeeForttt lol nice. can't agree more.

[N1CKISBR00T4L]

@bdassvids Doesn't even need to be said, Rome would probably say "no shit"

[rsohlich1]

My good friend and son of a great mom just died of h at the age of 25. He told me it was that strong. He is reallly going to be missed RIP Ian I'll always remember you bro

[FaceYerFears]

@rsohlich1 sorry to hear that bro.

[GoodLaxatives]

@dbabbjr i think Romes voice is more comparable to Panic at the Disco type of singers

.. sadly :/

[xXdeadaudioXx]

i take it away but i want more and more one day im going to lose the war...=*( brad did lose that war sadly..

[creepymrclean]

@xXdeadaudioXx Actually I disagree with your. Sure we lost brad to his addiction but because of his death, we now have people in this world like myself who are ispired by his lyrics and soul he put into his music. Put it simply he lost the battle, its up to us not the lose the war. I may not be Bradley Nowell but heres some thing i wrote that i put alot of soul into.

[beetlebum24]

honestly they should have left sublime alone without this new douchebag the media cant replace brad he was one in a million and id rather be on youtube and listen to the real thing rather than rome call me what you want a hater dick or say hes the best because i dont give a fuck so so long ima be listening to real shit and p.s. FUCK ROME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FaceYerFears]

@beetlebum24 couldn't be said any clearer.

[woodsampson1]

Heroin anyone?:),if you say yes you fuckin suck ,kills all the greatest MUSICIANS

[deadbodymansrh]

@woodsampson1 without herion you wouldnt have the musician.

[DIRTYSANCHEZ1995]

@woodsampson1 fuck heroin, i'll take some pot though

[chilliecheesecake]

I cried the first few times I heard this song.... It reminds me so much of my big brother.

Heroin destroys EVERYTHING. Music, families, love, genius, relationships.... It's the fucking DEVIL.

[briannjoell]

Chills agreed :)

[Goblinladyful]

It breaks my heart how he can't finish saying Lose the War at the end.

[ryver87]

ive been clean now for 5 weeks its hard as hell every day is an up hill battle. i listen to Brad every day an keep his story close to my hart, ive walked those lines an luckly didnt lose. ive lost several friends one right in my arms. anyone goin thru the same jus hold on an keep movein forward there is light at the end. RIP Bradley James Nowell , u to Lou Dog luv ya bro we all miss u.

[jeff5000111]

lol @ 1:32

[rsohlich1]

Just lost a good friend to to H. Sad. He had soo soo much to give. He was intelligent, funny, ect...makes me wonder why this world is so fucked up. Brad summed the emotions up so perfectly. RIP Ian and Brad

[spazzbite13]

i cant stop listening to this song man... i have probably listened to it a couple hundred times in the last week. bradly's song writing is amazing. this guy was a musical genious and there will never be another like him. RIP brad and Lou dog!!

[81Christian311]

Boy does this song pull at the string of my heart. Being a recovering heroin addict myself, I know what he was going through. I'm just amazed at how honest his lyrics are in this song. He knew he was gonna die before his time. Little did he know he'd become an idol and the influence to many modern day bands. God bless you Bradley, I hope your smiling down from Heaven, no longer carrying that burden on your back. You were taken way too soon...

[beetlebum24]

@81Christian311

exactly

[RazorSharpPain]

12 steps hasn't made me lose the war....Get help my brothers and sisters!!!! Bradley lost the war and we could have enjoyed more of his music if he was here! Don't succumb to addiction!

[LaEskoh]

Rome........sorry bro.

[AnnaLeigh0791]

12 people lost the war!

[Jwingerter95]

this song is touching.

[LastLaughTX]

one day i'm gonna lose the war.....

[sublimeSmith]

i cant just listen too this once

[ratmajat22]

I'm glad I was 3 when Bradley died.. or else I woulda cried

[MissingINo]

He lost the war... you don't have to. We lost a legend in Bradley, don't do heroin.

[coconutlime96]

i like to touch myself to this song

[beetlebum24]

[LUKEWORM9]

he died

[BetweenAnimalsAndPac]

drugs are good for you, no im not being sarcastic, i love this man.

[cmoneytime1]

Bradley is a pimp. Weve all got our struggles, and he had his, but he shared it withus. His biggest insecurity, and shameful problem, he shared it. It takes a real man, and a hell of a lot of courage to do that. Tanks for the lesson Brad, youll always be alive in my heart, and through your music. I crank it in the jeep. Bad ass. See yu soon or later bradley.RIP Brother.

[cmoneytime1]

jsmillard, youre a f ing idiot. Seriously? its un fung believable how ignorant, insessitive, and stupid you can be. Do us all a favor, andgo back under the rock yo crawled out from under. a s shole. u prolly jerk off daily, no girl, no dog, no love, no nothin, except your alter ego, and f ud up head. youre a waste of space, time, and energy. Im like in shockright now. Say that s hit at a punk show, see what happens you little bitch

[ChewZilla101]

@cmoneytime1 your mixing yourself up dude jsmillard wasnt saying that shit that sylicone221 kid was hes been doing this shit for weeks calling brad worm food

[rsohlich1]

@ChewZilla101 yea he does that on all the webpages of Bradley, Layne Staley and Kurt Cobain. He's just some troll with a weird complex.

[jsmillard]

@ChewZilla101 Thank you.

[ChewZilla101]

@cmoneytime1 bro dont mix yourself up it wasnt jsmillard it was that sylicone221 kid hes being saying this shit for weeks. That sylicone kid is fucked up in his head calling brad worm food

[jsmillard]

@cmoneytime1 What exactly did I do? And P.S. I really like your grammar.

[theDuneKune]

dude jsmillard is a fuckin piece of shit!

[ChewZilla101]

@theDuneKune bro dont mix yourself up its sylicone221 saying this shit hes got a fucked up mind calling brad wormfood

[blazeofglory00]

He knew he would never quit no matter how bad he wanted to because it was so much a part of his lifestyle he was a fuckin' rockstar and that was his escape..

[420Eugine]

love you Bradley

[beetlebum24]

dude this is fucking bullshit we all lost the war when we lost bands and artists that sang with feeling we lost bradley james nowell man he was a fucking legend and a god to most people but hey at least we have lady gaga (SARCASM) fucking bullshit

man

[TheSamoanElvis]

@beetlebum24 He was a legend? He still is a legend...

[beetlebum24]

@TheSamoanElvis

ya he is i just wish people still listened to real music

[assortedfish]

wish he could have gone to rehab.

[LoffleMe]

@assortedfish i think he tried.

[broverKeyes]

I'll love sublime forever. I never go to a party without bringing my sublime with me ! Anyone do the same?

[lewis6590]

15 years ago a great musician and man lost his war. RIP Brad you inspire many to this day and I hope we will meet someday so you can know what a hero you were. much love

[xcarmox]

1:06 - 'And I can shake, and I can't breathe'

Alot of soul in there...wow!!!

[NaTeiiSBeaST]

if only he didn't lose the war... RIP Brad.

[SquireStrat420]

15 Years today since Brad died..

i'll be listening to sublime and smoking all day in Brads honor.

R.I.P.

[MrRasEric]

@SquireStrat420 Same bro alll day long lets do it right.

[sethehr]

15 years ago today (5/25/1996), the music world lost one of its brightest stars and one of my favorite musicians of all time...

RIP Bradley James Nowell

[ImGangsterish]

this song saved my life.

[zharmuth]

@ImGangsterish how? were you addicted to heroin before the age of 15?

[ImGangsterish]

@zharmuth not heroin, oxycontin.

[EastCoastIslands]

cool video man.

[dturco5938]

@MrGgallinisgod No one thinks it is

[DarkAndMartyr]

This song blows my mind. It's magnificent. Brutal, honest. Fucking real.

[TheRiteOne100]

this is kinda sad yo

[HaRdPL8]

kinda sketchy on the sound but a meaningful song.

[iluvbradleymorethenu]

sad sad song

[savageman23]

i found nothing but brilliance and insperation..

Bradley ..I hope your happy brotha

[vae2k]

gg allins a fuckin weirdo, what does that have to do with sublime?

[tomoropeza]

@vae2k i mean if you listen to sublime you should know brad nowell had a heroin addiction and died from overdose of it in 96

[muzicbuff412]

We miss you Bradley

[TheKilldo]

this song was about his own death..sad R.I.P. bradley

[CRUTCHNIGGAKILLA]

bradlys a fuckn god !

[2hahnc]

did anyone see him throw someone off the stage...classic.....god sublime was great...i guess they still kinda are now that they came back....sorta

[thatpunkwelder]

ahh come on. heroin's pretty rad

[SarahRodDragonfly]

you kno, I've been listening to this song for years, always loved it. both versions. even had all the lyrics memorized. it wasn't until just now did I realize how truly sad it was. christ, i'm oblivious

[haleisaviandjake]

pool shark man who knew 1 repeted chorus could be so inspirational i hope all of you who are struggling woth an addiction are lisening one day you will lose the war

[JMort95]

@haleisaviandjake you ever suck dick for weed?

[Eminem4liife]

@JMort95 Half baked quote

[JMort95]

@Eminem4liife best movie ever, maybe.

[nutsack666]

@haleisaviandjake wow...what great words of encouragement. not everyone loses the war jack ass. god rest bradley's soul...but he got unlucky as hell and never got a real chance to get help before it took his life. its not an unlosable war though.

[azsteeler7]

Every time I want to download this song, i think of how sad it is and i can't muster up the courage. I finally bought this song today, I'm sorry you had to lose the war brad, but you fought that fucker till the end. RIP Brad, peace and love.

[Pmiss123]

@MrGgallinisgod , i hope u can kick the addiction buddy, also u commented about at brads face at 1:07 about the pain in his face that he is expressing, which is wierd because about 5 mins before i stumbled onto your comment, i actully wrote lyrics to pool shark on another you tube video Sublime- Get Out (best quality video) and i said at 1:07 on that vid you can see happiness in his face when he looks at a smiling girl, i just thought it was wierd i commented that , are comments were opposite:)

[misskoool]

makes me want to cry :/ he was just so amazing

[MrGgallinisgod]

jsmillard::: well im sorry to here that hopefully one day things will be alright for you... i haven't been clean long and i've relapsed before so there is never a guarentee... brad got clean right before he died!!!! relapse is almost innevidable... i got lucky this time though...i finally found something i like more than heroin... it was a girl actually... and she got me clean.. so its been about a month... find something that makes you feel just as good and sub it...

[nminden]

@MrGgallinisgod sobriety is a miracle my friend i myself jus got clean from herion about 2 months ago. 60 days clean today :) its an awsome feeling and skateboarding is now my new drug of choice

[MrGgallinisgod]

struggling with heroin myself this is a heart felt song... you can see the pain on his face at 1:07 and it makes me cry every single time... he felt powerless... thanks in big part to this song and brad and gg and all the friends ive lost im now clean... and heroin isnt cool people

[jsmillard]

@MrGgallinisgod Hey, hope everything clears up bro and good luck :) I'm not really in a good place right now either, and the future doesn't look bright for me either.

[ravercoxy]

@MrGgallinisgod too right shag stay strong pal!!

[FlasKamel]

@MrGgallinisgod gg as in gg allin?

[sylicone221]

@MrGgallinisgod brad is worm food now heheheee! enjoy worms! heehheheeee...

[SquireStrat420]

@sylicone221

he was cremated.

have some respect.

get your facts straight..

[sylicone221]

@SquireStrat420 HIS SON IS BETTER OFF WITHOUT HIM HEHEHEHEHE! hey worms, enjoy heheheee...

[fchsgymnast5]

@sylicone221 fuck you asshole

[sylicone221]

@fchsgymnast5 worm food! heehheeee..enjoy worms.....hehehehehee....dead junkie good riddance, hes only famous cuz he od'd no one heard of him before....

[LoffleMe]

@sylicone221 you're a complete dick. no matter what, you should show some god damn respect. he may have been an addict, but this song tells you, straight up just SAYS that he didn't want to end up like that. people just end up in bad places and i'm sorry, if he went around abusing people or something i might understand your complete and utter disrespect, but even then i wouldn't get why you're expressing it in such a shitty childish way. he was harming himself, he knew it, and wanted it to STOP.

[sylicone221]

@LoffleMe worms enjoy heheheheee...fucking junkie! heheheheee

[mikemikemikemikeeee]

@sylicone221 oi! like bradley said..."Im Funky...not a junkie!"

[sylicone221]

@mikemikemikemikeeee worm food! hehehheeee.....suicide by od ala darby crash lol.

[Fortiforeal]

@sylicone221 Lols he may be food for the worms but sublime inspires me as a musician and heroin is fuckin cool SO FUCK U BRO U AINT COOL!!!

[LoffleMe]

@sylicone221 Are you just the hugest troll in existence? 'cause it's not funny. It's just disgusting, what you're doing.

[ChewZilla101]

@sylicone221

He was famous for putting Ska on mainstream radio with songs like date rape. He amounted more in his short career then you ever will working behind a Mcdonalds counter.

[sylicone221]

@ChewZilla101 hehehee..worms! enjoy

[beetlebum24]

@sylicone221 hey fuck u man go eat out your sisters pussy and fuckin leave us alone fucking dumbass motherfucker

[sylicone221]

@beetlebum24 worm food his son is better off without him fucking junkie

[jsmillard]

@sylicone221 Let me just tell you this, you're an asshole. And also tell me how can he be "worm food" if his ashes are spread out at Surf Point in Long Beach? Stop being a douche on youtube videos and go get yourself a life.

[sylicone221]

@jsmillard ok not worm food, but hey...his son is better off without a junkie for a dad! hehehehee! hope troy found a decent man other than this douche

[jsmillard]

@sylicone221 You're the douche-bag here. And tell me exactly why do you hate sublime/Bradley Nowell? They've done nothing to you. Go jack off.

[sylicone221]

@jsmillard i like some of their songs, just saying brad was a junkie and he's worm food now hehehehe! worms! enjoy heheehee.....

[jsmillard]

@sylicone221 So then what gives you the right to say Brad's "worm food" Go fuck yourself, seriously, all this is about is love. If you can't accept that then go find some music you like and stop dissing Bradley. "Let the lovin' take ahold, because it will if you let it." -Bradley Nowell.

[sylicone221]

@jsmillard i pick on all dead druggies and call them worm food! check out river phoenix videos, hes the worst of the worst! brads death didnt make news!

[jsmillard]

@sylicone221 Just shut the fuck up and go find some music you like. What exactly are you accomplishing by posting stupid shit like that on youtube videos? Honestly. grow some balls, and go listen to whatever you want.

[sylicone221]

@jsmillard worm food heheee

[DocRocktopus]

@MrGgallinisgod

you're so right, what a powerful moment. It chokes me up hard. I might have missed it if you hadn't pointed it out.

[PantiesSnakeFistClaw]

why do 11 people not like this song?

[sheenska00]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRAD!

[sheenska00]

Its terrible that he wrote we he knew best..

[novanye1]

bradley isent dead

he'll be in my heart forever no matter what

my soul, my life, my brother.

happy birthday bradley james nowell

i sure wish i could say it to your face

why did you have to lose the war ?

[bricro87]

this song makes me want to cry. Happy Birthday Brad, RIP

[BUDSMOKER216]

YES THEY STILL EXIST LOL. I ROCK OUT ON MY COMPUTER MP3 AND PHONE TOO BUT I LIKE BUYING CDS OF BAND I TRUELY LOVE.

[JoeAverage000]

Why should Rome stay away from this song? Because it's about Brad's Heroin addiction? So he should just stay away from half of Brad's songs right? Because all Sublime's songs about personal things that happen to brad and what Brad experienced. Soooo Rome should stay away from everything pretty much. Gotcha! I think you guys are fake Sublime fans. I rather have a Sublime with Rome than no Sublime at all. At least there making music again. Rome is very talented. Be supportive! I bet Brad would be!

[MrIliketacos12]

@JoeAverage000 i agree with how rome is good but i really think he shouldnt play some songs i wouldnt hate him but it wouldnt feel right, you no

[JoeAverage000]

@MrIliketacos12 I hear you dude. I don't want him singing any of the old songs. I just want them to make there new music. I liked Panic and Romes solo's, i want to hear more of Rome, not a Cover of Brad.

[MrIliketacos12]

@JoeAverage000 ya i went to sublime with rome and it was pretty sick

[jsmillard]

@MrIliketacos12 Yeah it just doesn't feel right.....like he shouldn't sing some of brads songs, they're about his experiences and his life.....it just wouldnt be right..

[BUDSMOKER216]

WOW. I LOVE THIS SONG! TOO BAD THAT ONE DAY BRADLEY JAMES NOWELL LOST THE WAR.

R.I.P YOUR STILL ALIVE IN MY CD PLAYER!

[JamesMLeo]

@BUDSMOKER216 lol CD players still exist?

also, hell yes he's still alive, but on my computer and mp3 player.

[Eskinadosplays]
