Liz Phair - Why Can't I?

[Emmilita]

every single part of this song is my life currently.

[Vidiot760]

Sounds a bit like "Hey School Boy" by Stefy.

[wildprincesse]

@Vidiot760 seriously...

[NinjaKidBolette]

13 Going On 30 <3

[CeleryMan3]

It's weird hearing this after listening to her lo-fi stuff.

[FanofJordanTodosey]

What.? "We havent fucked yet but my heads still spinning.??" Lol

[MrRob8254]

@FanofJordanTodosey Down with censorship !!!!!

[level27billy27]

this song brings back a lot of memories as a little girl, hanging out with my best friend. I cant listen to this song without thinking of the good times. Good song !

[allthatishere]

i heard this song playing as i was waiting in line at best buy. Man, i haven't heard this song in ages and it still sounds amazing!

[mydinosaursaidrawr]

Like this if your listening to this song and its 2012 <3

[tinytuc123]

@mydinosaursaidraw obviously

[annacodaa]

this song perfectly explains the feelings of anticipation of the beginning of a new relationship with someone and how crazy it makes you

[dennia12]

eu amo essa musicaaaaaaaaaaaa

[jooshe13]

Esto es musica (:

[mgunnerforever]

love this song

[Titian343]

ชอบมากเลยเพลงนี้ ฟังยังไงก็ไม่เบื่อ :)

[wild4witwer]

Amazing song. 

[KrissyL4ag]

We haven't fucked yet but my head's spinnnningggg....

[oulion21]

Walking down the street and I hardly know you...

[christentze]

so true...the anticipation that's there at the beginning and that some people manage to maintain is one of the best feelings in the world.

[stewlil111]

i remember this song i love it!!!!!!!

[CeleryMan3]

It's really jarring to go from listening to "Fuck and Run" to... this.

[gonzalohw]

Qué ganas de escucharla por primera vez.

[pakg05]

When me and my wife were just dating, she told me this is her song for me. I still feel flattered everytime I remember that time. :)

[barbiiexcalii]

@pakg05 That's so cute! =)

[79cb750f]

The happiest Fender DuoSonic II in the universe.

[josaf19]

we're already wet and we're gonna go swimming!

[SIRBARTORUS]

[The6minuteshow]

Heard this song in Win A Date with Tad Hamilton. <3

[briantbk86]

she looks like a mixture of sheryl crow and lisa marie presley!

[missillinois82]

usta be my ringtone ;o)

[Fighter4121]

:)

[allisontaylormusic]

If you like this song, you will love my music! Please check out my channel :)

[somedudeinva]

I had no idea this was Liz Phair... the Liz Phair that I went nuts for when she did "Supernova" almost 20 years ago....

[Singbusch15]

this song is so catchy!!

[ChristineAt16]

The style of this video immensely reminds me of Hilary duff's to the beat of my heart :))

[jorgecorado20]

i wish a girl sing this song to me

[terre657]

@jorgecorado20 I no me to.

[mszCHUNKYbby]

wow i think i hear this when i was little...

[mattymath1]

What a bad song from a great artist. Why did she go in for this mass produced crapped?

[sammylou]

Wow childhood memoriess.. 

[MazzieFace]

Did Justin Bieber steal this song?

You decide. (I have no opinion)

/watch?v=UdvD0SlSFtA

[itsarion]

@MazzieFace He didn't steal. 'Mistletoe' is his song and 'Why Can't I' is Liz Phair's song. Just take the time to appreciate each song individually. It's totally okay if you or anyone else thinks it's stealing, but there are plenty of songs that sound the same or have the same beat. Like the songs for how they make you feel or what they make you remember. 'Mistletoe' and 'Why Can't I' are two really amazing songs meant for the world to enjoy. :)

[TheCraziestFun]

@itsarion i agree.

[Sean021122]

There is nothing wrong with the innocence of true love... It is so beauitful, and so is Liz. She has so much to offer. And there is so much more to connecting with someone besides just the physical. We are all here (life) because of love. To show someone how much they mean to you. I would definitely swim in her intoxicating eyes, hold her hand, kiss her so slowly and passionately as to stop time. Oh and show her that a guy can indeed give her everything she needs emotionally and otherwise<.<

[SarahMeyers1000]

i love this song:)

[morgannxxxmonster]

why ishe no longer singing???! i demand another album!!

[prchicky23]

isn't this the best part of breaking up,

finding someone else you can't get enough of? :)

<3

[mxer778]

@prchicky23 I wish it was that easy lol

[MaurauderGirl]

Story of my life...

[sp00nge26]

reminds me of Mark Ruffalo... :)

[TORIN111]

... Nostalgia monster is out to get me.

[HeyitsNIC]

love this song so much

[dexermusicalxd]

ke bonitooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!

[TheDavemaster300]

I herd this song in my dreams last night but the odd thing is I haven't herd this song sence I was like 14, My dream's brought me hear!

[CameraCrewFilms]

[gabydbonilla]

[ukcyrus]

[brittanyofangels]

Why are there only 602,144 views?

[MultiYellow12]

One thing i dont understand.. "why cant i speak when i TALK about you.. ??" is she high..

[ksonification]

@MultiYellow12 It's like when you're having a conversation about something but you just can't find the words to explain how you feel. Whenever he is the topic of discussion or when she is "talking" about him, she can't "speak" meaning she can't find the right words. At least that's how I interpret it. :D

[MultiYellow12]

@ksonification lol yeah no i get it, i was just being dumb. sarcastic. i guess u cant tell though' over internet. thats a good explanation though;. :) thx lol.

[RootBeerBarrelEyes]

@MultiYellow12 Dunno if anyone responded yet, but...she probably means she starts talking about him and she can't speak because she stumbles over her words, stammers, stutters, can't get the words out right, you know?

[MultiYellow12]

@RootBeerBarrelEyes lol yeah someone else said she cant find the right words when ever the topic is concerning him. so yeah. but my cmt was supposed to be sarcastic, no one can tell that over the internet tho' is what I have learned. lol

[RainbowFrogKid]

There Is Nothing Innocent About This Song, Its Pretty Dirty haha

[17MGMThippie]

@RainbowFrogKid how is it dirty?

[RainbowFrogKid]

@17MGMThippie

Here we go, we're at the beginning

We haven't fucked yet, but my heads spinning

thats child friendly

[GorillazNoodle22]

If she can't breathe, I suggest she see a doctor immediately....

[tomorrowneverknows94]

I really wish she hadn't sold out.

"Exile in Guyville" is so much better than this shit :P

Still love you, Liz!

[cutepinkteddy16]

I miss those days too.....they were so great and lessons about love and life were learned. :)

[VipBoy03]

Great song! I miss those days.. =(

[adraa27]

one year ago i met this song, and i felt totally identified with it ... there was a guy i liked him so much, he had girlfriend and i was dating someone. We began had feelings too strong to each other and everyday we spent together didn't help too much to deny it...

we just celebrated our aniversary<3 dreams came true...

[karimaasonya]

they use this song in a lot of rom coms!

[21lizp]

love it! love u matt <3

[21lizp]

love it!

[Gleetastic11]

she sounds kinda like Quinn...

[Williane1046]

I love song!

[deefogo]

what a tune and I only found it cause I embarrassingly watch 13 going on 30. Theses songs dont get enough recognition......

[gp167]

thumbs up if 13 going on 30 brought you here :)

[shaydream93]

I remember when I was 10, I heard this song for the first time in 13 Going on 30 and I"ve been in love with this song ever since. (: Except now I realize how dirty it is lol

[hbkfan087]

very pretty and very talented

[sydbee132]

she looks kinda creepy in like over half this video...

[thaithau]

I feel left out because idk what southcali12 said =/

[RingSight91]

@pew2u Well if you consider Infidelity "love" and not being selfish in the pursuit of your pleasure to the detriment of another, well alright, it's "lovely" then.

[heisul]

aite aite i dont see the big issue with fucking being discussed in the song, or more accurately, alluded to, or whatever you want to call it. i mean, personally, i feel it's the issue of casual relationships. which makes me conservative too i guess, lol. cuz it's two people who just went thru break-ups and are having a casual sex/infatuation-type affair in that post-breakup phase. so this could be seen as problematic.

[RingSight91]

@heisul lol wtf do you mean fucking is "alluded to"? It's right there in 01:53, muted in the vid but actually sung in the CD, "Here we go we're at the beginning. We haven't fucked yet but my head's spinning." The entire song is an emphasis on the "yet" part lol. More than one writer has referred to this song as an Ode to Cheating, even Adultery.

And where do you get the whole "post-break-up phase" idea? The entire album (which I have) is a "sex this and sex that" sort of track list.

[aduncke]

I love this song! Is one of the song of 13 going on 30!

[forevertulip]

@roggie2499 It's not the worst music video ever, but it'd not a very good one. I like the song though :D

[roggie2499]

Such a good song, but this may be the worst music video ever.

[darkestdreams002]

hahahaha "we're already wet"

how dirty!?XD

[OneTreeHillGal0913]

@darkestdreams002 I didn't even catch that...hahahahaha.

[siddique20]

58 people thought the "dislike button" meant the "download button"

[siddique20]

The girl you just called fat? She is overdosing on diet pills. The girl you just called ugly? She spends hours putting makeup on hoping people will like her. The boy you just tripped? He is abused enough at home. See that man with the ugly scars? He fought for our country. That guy you just made fun of for crying? His mother is dying. post this to another video, if you are against bullying. You never know what its like until you walk a mile in their shoes.

[riti267]

nice song :)

[llrocks]

this is the one that's similar to Hilary Duff's "Beat of my heart". But this was made first! I think they used the same director...

[surfgurl01]

Bad music video but I love the song

[nievex850523]

Tell me..... Please, I Love U..... so much

[SofiaaxRainbowxSex]

relate <3

[xeliberg33x]

this song reminds me of "13 going on 30"

[lovegarbage1]

@xeliberg33x it reminds me also of 2 other movies : " Win a date with Tad Hamilton" and " This time around"

[ADEOLANAOMI88]

@xeliberg33x Its also reminds me of OC

[prchicky23]

@xeliberg33x OMG me too!! :D

[BloodyBlackHearts21]

@xeliberg33x i know right wasnt it on it. its also on the movie "how to deal" starring mandy moore based on two books by sarah dessen (that summer and someone like you)

[ItsMrHauser]

Long time looking for this song <3 <3

[snazinhouston]

Wow, Sheryl Crow's lil sister. Hey, don't ruin this for me, she can be her lil sister if she wants to. Just playing people.

[Writer0146]

It took me awhile to find this song!

It was worth it!

Liz, this was your best song EVER!

-Writer0146

[cassehhxchaoss]

i missed this song... <3

[killthecoolkidss]

This song reminds me of my ex. :(

[ClNNAMON]

I nostalgia'd. I miss late 90's, early 2000's music.

[laurawattam]

[TibbyJ123]

Wasted my life searching for southcali12 's comment -_-

[TheTena54]

[Regginyaga]

[2235ng]

"why cant i breathe when ever i think about you, why cant i speak when ever i talk about you"

[bayleeandrosacom]

My Fav song! lol

[MPGaGa1991]

Wow, I was 12 when this came out. I'm now 20! YIKES!

[robobabex]

@MPGaGa1991

Yeah, i was almost 14 when this song came out and i would just sit in my room and sing my little heart out to this song, dreaming about this boy josh, whom i thought the sun rose and set in. lmao I'm now 22 and engaged! It's crazy how fast time goes by. ^__^

[upsidedownbanana]

@robobabex are you engaged to josh?

[fritoburrito]

@robobabex and now your second mistake is getting engaged. Gotta trust me on this one kido, after 22 yrs of thinking I had a great relationship, it went to hell in an instant. Don't take my word for it, do your own research. Oh, I forgot, "we're so connected and special"...(cough) bullshit.

[Annafuffypop]

[WetPooooopie]

[Lizard239]

[aaihman]

I just feel that the rest of the song gives it such an innocent, true love feeling that by saying that word -

there is not true love without f........g

[Jasmeen789]

niceeee

[jennaheartlee]

i was looking for this song for YEARS with no luck and the music i already listen to is compatible with it and i always saw this song in my recommendations and i NEVER bothered to click it! infact the only reason i found it is because i clicked it on accident! i probably never would have found it o.O

[ugalawdog98]

I want to fuck the hell out of her. There. I said it.

[w29bum]

@ugalawdog98 i couldnt agree more

[MySweetParadigm]

this song of How to Deal

[dookeland8]

reminds me of a girl, we both realized we were in love with each other when were with someone else and now we listen to this song together non-stop b/c it is our relationship basically

[whoahlovex16]

I always listened to this song when I was in elementary school! Its amazing, and I like the part where she sings "isnt this the best part of breaking up finding someone else you cant get enough of someone that wants to be with you too."

[maeingrid987456]

i'm serious. How come it's now i am hearing about this beautiful girl? and on youtube??? if only i'd paid attention to youtube for often....
