This song is not a cover of "Jessie's Girl". That part was just a joke... Mike messing around with the other dudes in the band. You can see them laughing when he starts playing it. Remember this is around the time that Boogie Nights came out, and Jessie's Girl was featered prominently in one scene.
The best part of this tune to me is that they would have played it forever... the song only ends because Mike's amp craps out. Hilaroius.
everytime i hear every song of american football, and my friends asked me "wow, what band is this?" i always answered "its american football, a new band, just formed this year.." and they believe it. their sound never get old, never.
American Football and Owen...Mike Kinsella is my favorite musician of all time. Forget, Bach, Hendrix, Beatles. This man changed my world, and my music. I love these videos, whoever put them up, THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. I really mean it. I dont care if other people like it or hate it. This man changed my life, and this video...this video is the best thing I have ever seen on youtube...
@ClashingWithBlue Everything you said applies to me...I've been playing guitar for a few years and I've never been too much of a singer, but as soon as I heard the things Mike Kinsella has done I realized that music doesn't have to be incredible to mean something. Don't get me wrong, Mike IS incredible. But I realized that music is about getting out your thoughts in ways you can't through conversation. Music has become an outlet for me, and I owe it all to Mike. I'm glad I'm not the only one.
Haha it's true, its like the phases of the Earth.. Iceage, Tropical, etc.. American Football came, changed a lot of lifes, and let before most knew what happend
I know right. Just know this music is still alive in me, ive just never got around to selling cd's, but I made it a point of mastering this guitar style and have written many songs since the age of 15. Its a solo project w/ one other guitar player my best friend, no name tho. I may post very soon
what happened?
