  • hahahahaha 2:05

  • I'm a cat.

  • This video got me into 311 ... back when it was a brand new video. I love these guys ... Nick has one of those voices that you can relate to right away, he defines a time and place. Good times!

  • luls.

    doin LSD on 4th of july

  • Damn...this is good stuff...purely so...

  • who the guy trippin out on acid?

  • Comment removed

  • Good times. A time before Tony Bliar and The Zionist Cowboy ruined the World forever.

  • this video is f#cking sick man, makes me feel weird, but somehow i just love it

  • best rhyme from SA...i think. its like a tongue twister when i say it.

  • this song makes me so happy :D

  • nick. loox much better.with his cute blonde hair.

    dammmm . he's hot.

  • my favortie 311 song of all time

  • Ahh yes, those 4th's as a teen. Tripping BALLS..good memories!

  • yeah i love 311..and if you live by their lyrics..ur gonna be fucked up..and i think its been 100% worth it so far:)

  • haha Hells yea hearing this Live really Fuckin Rocks you seein people bob there heads hah fuck the nay sayers cant wait for there new album

  • why couldnt they have played this at rothbury?! it was freakin 4th of july!!

  • HAHAHA defeats the purpose to not play it on the fourth XP

  • this song is rad. I remember when I was in the 10th grade my brother got me a custom made t-shirt with this songs lyrics on the back in spanish. This reason why it was in spanish was because we both took spanish in high school all 4 years

  • whatever weido eclecticbgirl

  • good videos

    good songs

    coooool

  • Youre a tard. Notice how Uncle Sam puts a stamp on his tongue--thats called ACID for you completely oblivious pinheads

  • Does any one know wut this video mean and mabey song too, but i think i have a pretty good idea of wut they mean like gone insane to sane?

  • as ridiculous as this sounds, judging the lyrics, its about an acid trip...

    "Fourth of July

    with Lucy in sky

    I remember pine trees and the coat of many colors...

    shit like that scares me now..."

    sorry to ruin the allure...to me, this only adds more appeal, haha...311 can sing about anything and make it AMAZING...<3!!

  • I love this song! Reminds me of my past. Trippin of the 4th....lol

  • I meant on the 4th. Blotter

  • im pretty sure theyre remebering past acid trips and how that shit was scary but it would be cool to do it again (maybe)

  • haha who knows bro, kinda seems like it.

  • you are correct sir. lucy in sky refers to tripping. (and if you've never tripped, you really do feel insane from time to time) LONG LIVE 311!!

  • this video was filmed at an abandoned house in south cali.

  • what a cool video!!

  • it looked like uncle sam was smokin a blunt to kick in his lsd

  • its not a blunt its just a cigar

  • ya cuz he would not smoke a blunt before takin lsd lmao

  • why not?

  • glen- theres deffintaly more fake/less potent blotter but if you can find it i think their the best 2 can be like 4 or 5 easily, just harder to find.

  • depends on how much you take as well before you can trip really hard. with my experience the blotters arent as potent and i needed to take like 4 and i was like really trippin but with the gel tabs you need like 3 to be trippin as hard as the 4 blotters

  • Wow, this is actually the first time I've seen this video despite being a fan for around 13 years.

    This is almost like finding a time capsule buried in the ground.  Awesome!

  • lsd is great, it gives you the POWER to see the other side of things

  • s.a remindes me of matistyahu a little, becuse of the way he dances

  • 311 owns

    lol SA.. what a goof

  • yea its about acid.... fourth of july with Lucy in Sky

    Beatles song lucy in the sky

    Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds

    LSD

  • Iv seen the other side as well and still have not come back...

  • 311 owns your faces nigs. deal with it. and mesc beats tabs anyday, anytime.

  • Okay so if any of you guys knew anything about 311 you would know he does say "nigga" after the "and then I rise" part in the original recording, it's edited out in this video. When in concert he says brother. SA is half mexican and half Irish. In the song Fat Chance (aka fuck the bullshit) Nick says "nigga" as well.

  • some blotters suck, its all about the peanut butter and jelly sandwhiches

  • Don't live your goddamn life by lyrics! Find something real

  • SA is actually spanish so it kind of doesn't count

  • umm..no

  • OMG NIGGA!! so what....

  • of course hes talking about acid, at the end of the video for a split second you can see a guy stick out his tongue with a hit on it

  • this song is so cool.

  • The f!rst vid on my own side by The Eleven's! .. and so far the best of them .. so acid so kick ass .. so rock! .. that fucking shit is great and yes the lyrics is a polluted bullshit and is great for it!

  • Wow, released in 1994. Where does the time go? :( I have been a 311 fan for 14 years now and they just don't get old.

  • Psmerling 6/04? u mean 4/20 dumbass

  • I mean shit look at that blotter paper on 1:06!

    wtf else do stoners do on 6/04?

    haha

  • I think it is about seein the 4th of july on acid. Quotes:

    "Fourth of July with Lucy in Sky"

    "was nineteen

    I'd do anything

    Shit like that now scares me but I'd like to do it again"

    "I'm a flicka flacka blotter ya try to find a weakness

    But the shit keeps gettin harder"

  • 311 owns

    stay positive people

  • nick. loox much better.with his cute blonde hair.

    dammmm . he's hot.

  • No he says this;

    "Cuz we flow we must be fly

    First to flow Nickel my brother, so wise

    And then I rise

    Here's an ill kid pimpin' cuz he is so slick

    Step's from darkness his body electric...."

  • morons this guy is talking about after the nickle part..."Cuz we flow we must be fly

    First to flow Nickel my brother, so wise

    And then I rise NIGGA

    Here's an ill kid pimpin' cuz he is so slick" u cant hear it in this video.

  • he does say "nigga" in this video. but really who cares black people say that word more than anyone else so its not a big deal

  • i think you're all fucking stupid for trying to analyze the fucking lyrics. most of you were only about 5 yrs old when this song came out anyway. get a fucking clue and piss right off, you mindless sheep.

  • congratulations on being born before me something which neither of us had control of, i guess in your mind that makes you more of a fan huh big guy?

  • Actually, he says nickel. Look up the lyrics. ;)

    Still a good song though. Even if he did say nigger, I'd still listen to it.

  • Ever notice that SA uses the "N word" in this song? They sort of blur the audio in this version (around 1:30 of the video), but I'm almost positive he says "And then I rise, ni**a" at the start of his verse. Not like I think he's using it in a derogatory way, since I know that's not how 311 rolls, but I think it was cool back when they recorded the song, but now maybe they feel different about it. Anyway, my two cents - see you in NOLA for 311 Day!!

  • I always thought he said that.

  • Yeah I noticed that too, but if you watch the 311 Day 2004 DVD [or seem them perform live] he says "brotha" instead...very classy, he probably just wasn't thinking back then.

  • "First to flow nickel my brother, so wise" is the actual lyric. If you listen closely thats what hes saying.

  • "First to flow nickel my brother so wise" is the actual lyric. If you listen closely you can hear thats what hes saying.

  • No, I mean right after he says "so wise." Doesn't really matter, I guess, since he definitely didn't mean anything offensive by it.

  • i love how it shows the guy dropping acid in the video.

  • never knew the lyrics. Trippy shit.

  • trippy shit is good

  • this song is tight as shit.... ive been listening to 311 for 4 years now and havent seen this video but heard the song... the video makes it 10 times more bad ass

  • yea dis is my first time seeing the video besides the 4 other times i just watched it...its cool but wish they had more live footage like in the beginning

  • this song is about him trippin on fourth of july

  • i like the vocals on this version better than the studio version

  • i like tits better than boobs
