[scullmandead2010pop]

I love this song

[JSuisMargaux]

Why argue? Either enjoy the song or switch to another band/song. Ooohhh, prisoneeeerr!

[CommanderMeaty]

Hey Omegle person, your a pedofile!

[ThePussyNigger]

@CommanderMeaty YEAH!?!? well you can fuck off because I... AM... THE... LAW

[toxictrembler]

311 can be classified as a genre of music on their own.



[deftones311100]

i wouldnt say its underrated it sold 1.2million copies. but as an album, it should be concidered their best.

[deftones311100]

im listening to this in 2011, because it still kills, an reminds me of smokin out in my buddies chevelle bacl when we were just youngsters

[Jsd8675]

youtube wont even let me mute the ads. greedy fucks

[bobabeens]

give that girl wings and that's all that she wrote.

[vinnythefish1]

NO WAY!!! NO WAYYYY!!!

[praetorianc130]

This song will forever take me back to 1998......listened to the album a million times while on the US Armed Forces Rugby Tour to New Zealand. What a beautiful country....

[stovetop29]

311 is just allround underrated

[stevetillett420]

[mtay311]

[352HOMEBOY]

They're in a sensory deprivation tank? Right? I like 311, but this video is trippy!

[ChaChaHancho]

[zombiebloodshed13]

thumbs up for listenin in the days, this is some cool shit

[FUCKCHRISHANSEN]

saw this whole album played live piss drunk out in the woods at pow wow music fest

haha!

[MrKenn311]

This is one of my favorite 311 songs although i like everything they do. I saw em live last night in Dallas and i couldnt believe they played this one!!! They always deliver when it comes to live performance. The set list had something from every album, one of the best shows ive been too.

[jhazlem]

funny how many 311 sucks comments there are. 311 is a band where you either love them or hate them, there's no middle ground. i'm on the 311 is the greatest band ever side of things

[zupman86]

0:10 - listen to the song Light Years after eating an 1/8 of those.

[milonkill]

the Washington DC ad wouldn't of been so bad if that guy wasn't talking. Maybe like...oh idk, Morgan Freeman? Daniel Craig? Hell, even Bruce Campbell.

[mjszul]

Can't believe I didn't see this video until today. Transistor is my favorite 311 album. Fantastic video.

[thehacksrule]

311 IS GONNA ROCK!!!! CANT WAIT FOR TOMMROW!!!

[1kloppel]

Great song

[bbgb2002]

Have to agree these guys are great.

[lakai958]

[pezilla123]

@awesomo411 friend told me to listen to them.

[awesomo411]

[pezilla123]

@awesomo411 shut up you dumb bitch.

[awesomo411]

@pezilla123 trolls aren't welcome on 311 vids. sorry you gotta go.

[pezilla123]

@awesomo411 im sorry your right i shouldnt be here because 311 sucks and im too good for them LOL

[soSHOOTmeintheSMILE]

nick dancing = hot

pnut dancing = creepy

[evilconcarne444]

@soSHOOTmeintheSMILE Pnut dancing= bonerific sex journey II! He puts the boner in boner central.

[herkyjerky42]

[1MpUrO]

@herkyjerky42 haters gonna hate young soul

[OfficialJulianTv]

i love 311 but i got to ask why the one dude always does that nasty popping, other then that i have no problem with it

[ReveCodi69]

311 is the 90's

[amandaramirez1000]

thumbs up if you're listening to this in 2011.

[ChaChaHancho]

@amandaramirez1000 No shit.

[levey24]

@amandaramirez1000 post the same comment only with 2012 so we can vote it up again

[amandaramirez1000]

thumbs up if you're listening to this in 2011

[melm4402]

This song sucks

[SclafaniBagni]

311's Transistor - MOST UNDERRATED ALBUM OF ALL TIME

[Joshwood311]

@SclafaniBagni 311 the most underrated band of all time

[Gross561]

@SclafaniBagni Underrated? Everyone I know agrees this is the best album

[SclafaniBagni]

@Gross561 yeah because everybody you know is a 311 fan. a lot of people i know aren't into 311.

[CommanderMeaty]

@SclafaniBagni Nobody I know in real life know 311, sucks pretty much for theses people

[edghead]

@CommanderMeaty im 13 couple years ago watchin fuse tv they showed songs of lalapaloooza the song down was there. they r fucking awesome

[DeadOmega]

@SclafaniBagni Most fans acknowledge it as a masterpiece. 21 fuckin' songs, all featuring something different ... one of a god damned kind.

[311PhillyPhan]

@SclafaniBagni favorite 311 album of all time. just saw it in its entirety at Pow Wow.. epic

[constantinosbassman]

@SclafaniBagni KILLER ALBUM....Is EPIC Writings for sure !!

[glassjaw2007]

@SclafaniBagni i agree totally with you

[Numonkei]

@SclafaniBagni BULLSHIT! It went platinum, it's been digested and reingested by PLENTY of us for 1.5 decades. It doesn't lose it's flavor, and is NOT underrated. Platinum records are often overrated, but this one is certainly not underrated.

[SclafaniBagni]

@Numonkei Jesus Christ, calm down. I made a dumb little compliment to a band that I really love, relax. By saying that the album is 'underrated,' I believe that more people (not just 311 fans) should be familiar with it. And a lot of people aren't. I made no statement on its sales performance, only you made that correlation.

[QuinnahQ]

UNIVERSAL PULSE IS RELEASING JULY 19TH!!! Spread the message!!!

[beatrizdavis]

I really looove this song!! 311 rocks!

[clecio22]

This song is not of the year 2001, it´s 90´s song, maybe 1996 or 1997!!!

[lateraus1]

@clecio22  I think it's funny that people think "Down" was the first song they recorded (: Grassroots is my personal fav

[gun870]

ch..chch...chhhilll. sry my stutter.

[ryanator420]

This song is amazing to have sex to. It's worked for years now, and will work for years to come.

[EMABand1]

311 gets you high. you dont need no drugs. there are other ways.

[jwheyer]

@EMABand1 So?.. do you want a cookie? I love all these people who comment on youtube... "I don't need drugs to feel high" Who gives a shit good for you.. No better either way

[Dire327]

@jwheyer I know right, who is he...Mr. Mackey?

"Drugs are bad,mmmkay?"

[TheMusicluv1]

Check out "Chillin" by Five Wheel Soul

[tylah311]

@SuperSeanCasey I must be from the same place as them cause I've only met 2 people who knew of them before I asked and I've been listening for 8 years. Salsa is B.A. but I have a new favorite every other week it seems.

[ericwehler]

@tylah311 I have friend whose grandmother lives next to one to the band member's house back in omaha. and I have been listening to them since I first heard homebrew.

[TheRushour3]

The first band I ever listened to.

The first song I ever listened to.

[bgoodrick]

I love Martinez's "handless dance" in this video lol. 0:44

[stasop]

SA does a crazyyy robot

[SlapDaBass1]

My head is spinning......... this song is so incredible!

[mac777daddy]

@SlapDaBass1 Drop some fucking acid and slam a bottle of jager!

[finalfanta25]

I don't know what you guys are smoking, I love this song. I heard this song on the radio and got hooked onto 311. So to me this song owns.

[GodsmackLoverOracle]

i like 311 more than sublime but sublime is still a great band sublime is more punk like 311 is more reggae but thats just my opinion

[TheStupidfly]

@GodsmackLoverOracle idk i find alot of sublimes older stuff is more reggae. but i also find that bands tend to change their style throughout the years

[GodsmackLoverOracle]

@TheStupidfly yea i totally agree thats kinda what i meant but didnt really say it well lol

[boma357]

I've bee hearing all this crap about Sublime and 311 and all this shitty comparing and bitching. Each band is in no way shape or form ripping off of each other or any other band that does modern ska/reggae tune. One thing is for sure, these bands have come a long way for choosing this style of music and succeeded cuz ska/reggae in itself is a distinct style of sound that cannot be changed but rather be incorporated. FUCK ALL Y'ALL HATERS.

[iTzAntiVirus]

best band to listen to when your sooo highhhhh......

[QuinnahQ]

one of the best bands of all time, if not the greatest.

[CommanderMeaty]

[M3TALLICA444]

[EmanRucker]

greatest live band next to rage

[SunSoar82]

I love S.A.'s dancing^^

[shelbywatson4016]

Don't see how this video goes with the beat and song but i love it anyway! 311 has my <3

[nights2018]

Hell yeah no dislikes!

[AnimationAnimater12]

@nights2018 theres one now

[DizzMcFunk]

yah, soo talented.. they took the stalag 17 riddim for this song. now thats talent. Reggea artists have used this riddim to make songs for years.

[Jazzguitar86]

@DizzMcFunk What does that have to do with talent? Those who are calling the bass line rhythm a "rip-off" should note that this is a popular reggae rhythm that was used by many artists... So do we call all those rip-offs as well? Hmm... In jazz you'll see the same chord progression for "I Got Rhythm" used for many different tunes. So is every contrafact on those changes a rip-off of the original tune? Not to mention the blues.

Fuck the naysayers. Hating for no reason other than to hate.

[DizzMcFunk]

@Jazzguitar86 311 sucks balls.. just get over it. they did no justice to the stalag riddim. every version of the riddim ive heard blows this shit out of the water. specific genres like jazz and blues have nothing to do with it. Ill explain, When Buckethead covers Jimi Hendrix - Machine Gun im not like dude, buckets a "rip-off" hes playing jimi. Its more like damn, i havent heard a jimi cover this good. i have the right to hate girly pop music like 311 if i want to, dont be such a fag.

[Jazzguitar86]

@DizzMcFunk You think 311 sucks? That's fine; your opinion. Don't state it as if it's fact, however. "Unity" is anything but "girly." I guess logically calling you on your shit equals being a "fag." Transistor is not their strongest album, and Prisoner is not close to my favorite song from it. However, to say every version you've heard blows it out of the water...hm, calling BS. This band is and has always been solid. The time, including Sexton's, is phenominal. I guess you wouldn't know that.

[WVliberty]

@DizzMcFunk sublime is way better and 311 is kinda weak but i like em

[joethatguyfromlife]

@WVliberty your opinion, but you dont realize that...well...ITS 3FUKIN11!!!!!!

sorry i like both bands (311 more)

[WVliberty]

@joethatguyfromlife 311 is very mellow and relaxing sounding,

[boma357]

@Jazzguitar86 I want to add something to what you said bro.

"Fuck the naysayers cuz they don't mean a thing and this is the style we bring."

straight from 311 themselves.

[Clitoris500]

THREE ELEVEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nights2018]

@Clitoris500 311!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PurgetheInsanity]

songs so true

[lux5star]

video would have been better if the old guys were dancing in the background lol

[vAdamn420v]

311 and Pepper in st paul last summer was kick ass! over 6 g in joints smoked that concert

[prankcallradio]

311 = AWESOME. Vevo = Worthless.

[UuTube2]

Tenor Saw lives on

311 version

"Ring The Alarm" check it out!

[dunefall]

Look at Hexum dance! He actually has some moves. My first concert experience and quite possibly the best.

[GreatJane1]

@dunefall Mine too. I wanted to see them this year and missed out because i had no one to go with, but who could say no to them thats what i don't get.

[nirvanaspirit666]

justin beiber who is a grain of sand on the beach, while 311 is a mountain in the himalayas.

[gamergod8]

@nirvanaspirit666 who gives a shit about Justin Bieber? People would forget about him faster if fucking assholes like you stop reminding us of him. Just shut up.

Great song by the way!

[nirvanaspirit666]

@gamergod8 just stating the obvious bro, no need for harsh words

[jorpr2004]

This band made me see music in a different light

[jmiddendorf2007]

Learned it on guitar.. Got it down! Who wants to play it with me?

[BurritoSandwich]

probably my favorite song by 311.

[311fan312]

!!!



[RATMfan92]

Transistor. Probably the most underrated album of all time.

[Absolutdoc]

uh - huh!

[nirvanaspirit666]

greatest band ever

[SlipKnoTdrummer04]

My favorite part is 0:00-2:53

[zacster311]

Been my favorite band since I first heard the Grassroots album while skateboarding in 1994. They are unique, amazing live and still going strong. This song is classic 311.

[JamesBehrends]

Very relaxing song, bowl worthy......

[SaiyaDaewoo]

@JamesBehrends keep it burning

[EMABand1]

This band is truly talented. They touch base with so many different genres and the singers voices go together so well. It just melts the reality in my mind!!!! 311 <3 foreva!

[nirvanaspirit666]

the greatest band of all time

[airsoftpup123]

trippy vid

[bradybastian]

oooh I miss drugs.

[311diamonddoll]

311 is the best band ever...love the music...the <3 is definitly here...

[ErinMJ2311]

Yay! 311 Day 2010 ROCKED!!

[iliveinpinckney]

my favorite band ever, i wish more people knew about this incredible band, they are so talented

[IAMCloudShark]

@iliveinpinckney no them im yur frend

[gilttu]

@iliveinpinckney

totally agree, my favorite band of all time

[danielurriola]

@iliveinpinckney I agreeed,,,,excelent band...they're so original...

[rsuave109]

@iliveinpinckney They're talented crooks. Their whole style is a rip-off of reggae music's rhythms, melodies, and bass lines.

[jimmyskrunkvodka]

@rsuave109

Every band rips something off from someone. Never is a new story told. Your statement is lazy

[Jazzguitar86]

@rsuave109

As if it's a negative thing to be influenced by a style of music. Yeah, okay. I think you're exaggerating a bit when you say that. Rhythms? Chad's drumming is not a rip-off of anybody. I'd say he's got a highly original style, especially the triplet rhythm with the first note on the bass drum and the next two as ghost notes on the snare. His actual beats are creative and original, NOT simply a rip-off of reggae drummers, who were nevertheless great, solid musicians.

[jhazlem]

@rsuave109

haha what are you talking about. 311 has reggae songs but they have way more rap rock/rock/311 songs. 311 can't even be classified as a genre, they're the most diverse band ever. i have no problem with someone hating 311 just in their opinion, but when you make dumbass comments like that you're just a dumbass

[masterofpuppets109]

@iliveinpinckney

Fuck yeah fuck yeah!!

[MIGHTYBAWLS]

@iliveinpinckney boss hog

[skiinlenny]

@iliveinpinckney I know right?! i am constantly amazed at how people say "who's 311?"

[msn259628]

wish i could of went to there concert when they came to las vegas for the 311 day

[tokyobassist]

what the fuck is dance? So ugly lol

[bcthemanman]

@tokyobassist fag like u can dance any better

[tokyobassist]

who the fuck are you acting like your comment is relevant in my life. go suck a fat dick you dumb Chad.

I'd really like to see that shit you consider a dance win an actual dance off/competition.

[finalfanta25]

these guys are really good...I am so shocked that they weren't as popular as some of the other bands during the 90s...

[ChilloutSessionZ]

it didnt take long by 94 they were millionaires

[flickerman68]

311 rocks

Tenor Saw Respect!

FUCK VEVO!!!!!!

[MikeB299]

is there any love out here let me know....

[lux5star]

Martinez looks really gay squirming to this song... i guess atleast he didnt have a tambourine..

[ZeroOdyssey]

i thought S.A was Eminem for a split second lol

[newjerseyjew]

great song gay video category?

[BobbyDBabee]

actually i kinda like the video...

[BobbyDBabee]

i love how s.a. moves :)

and nick is sexyyyy!!!!

311 is such a sick band i love them...

[paintmehappy]

Awesome song. (:

[MsBadapples]

Can't wait for them to come to Hawaii...

[maryganjatoke311]

transistor is their best album IMO.

you can just tell by the music and lyrics that they were in another fucking universe.

[greg311kid]

musically by far....soundsystem shares a little of that vibe
