  • @cuntshits11 Yeah, that's about where the song starts to get good.

  • Is this song that has to deal with one of these cities in the Los Angeles area?

  • @CraigFoye80 Not really. Well, there is a story behind the song, but its just a city. It could be Laguna or Malibu, but its Santa Monica.

  • I'm only 16, but i totally remember this song! So awesome.

  • @ericcartman555 me too haha

  • is it me or does every Everclear song sound like the last Everclear song..

  • If you skateboard run this track on your Ipod next time. Great tune to just ride and forget !!!!IIIILIFEIIIII!!!.

  • It's sad that real artists were killed off by fluff bands. We need more Everclear

  • pussy willow

  • dude at 2:47 is that pirate's cove in san luis obispo CA!!!!

  • One of the best songs of the 90s. Reminds me of a dear departed boyfriend. "I am still dreaming of your face..and watch the world die"

  • 90's best decade of music. Fck yall..90's huuuuuuhhhhhhh

  • THE 90'S WERE A GREAT TIME FOR MUSIC. SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE.

  • I love metal and hip hop everything listened some amazing music but nothing brings me back in a good way I love it

  • This song is so fucking perfect.

  • @edwardsonlybella hell yer man im a aussie surfer away from the ocean at times and this song keeps me sain but the chick reminds me of my angry woman at home lol

  • always will be one of my favorite songs.

  • goddamn what a classic song

  • i liked this song after my brothers friend who lives with us played it on guitar

  • Why is it so easy to notice that he is not even attempting to make it look like he's playing the guitar?

  • he kinda looks like the present matthew bellamy if he had black hair

  • I dont want to be your down time!

  • man. why can't people make music like this anymore?

  • @monkeycheese76 my freind, it is because songs like this come from a deep epiphany, and are quite rare - they do come again, but are few and far between

  • Shot at Leo Carrillo? Kinda looks like it, oh well whatever.

    @ olpap53

    Im Gen X and I still cant differentiate X from Y.

    It's not say, a vast divide, like the Baby Boomers and Gen X are.

    I think of it like, Gen Y has better toys!

    Same mind set tho.

    -Corporate Rock Still Sux.

  • i love the way he sings that. it fits a recent part of my life PERFECT. but i aint sleepin alone anymore .... ya'll can figure out the rest ....... :)

  • This song always cheers me up. Every time I'm sad and I here this fine tune, it makes me smile. I love the lyrics too, in my point of view it kind of says to just fuck the world and to not give a shit about what anyone says. Good when you get rejected or something lol.

  • Come Dec 2012,when the big one hits,I wanna be beside the ocean with this song blasting. What a way to go!!!

  • @vtecinblack

    I'd prefer REM's "It's the End of the World as We Know It", but this song is awesome all the same. :)

  • @vtecinblack Dude... Nothing is going to happen in Dec 2012... Dx lol

  • @templerunes :-D

  • man all 90's music was soo good... full of junkies lol guess they make the best music

  • missing the west coast. dang ireland bites. give me west of the 1 anyday.

  • @snogger64 Stone temple pilots? Beck? Soundgarden? any of these ring a bell?

  • fuck the world im gonna live in the ocean

  • easiest song in the world to play.

  • @theclockworks2

    so true......the easist song to play on guitar and bass

  • Nostalgia in the form of music

  • werd, i remember back in like 1996 or 1995 when i was in 4th grade iheadr this song on the radio, n it stuck in my head, all i could remember was, with my big black boots n my old suitcase, i kept hummin it over n over n my head, then i finnally found out what song it was, i was n a store 2day readin the latest high times n i heard this song come on, i had 2take my headphones off, n said werd, thats whats good

  • I remember seeing them a the Weenie Roast in 1996 and waiting for them to play this song.

  • @Scruuf I was born in 92 and have literally never done any of that.

  • I saw these guys at the Metropol in Pittsburgh in 96, before they made it big. Awesome show.

  • I saw them at a festival in Atlanta in 1998 or 99. Really nice guys, Art Alexakis signed my hat...

  • This was Bradly Nowell's last song he played for his wife over the phone the morning he died.

  • White Ford Bronco's 90s Song of the Day 10/4/10

  • With my big black boots and my suitcase I do believe I will find myself a new place. Great, Positive, Fun! We need this type of music back and slash music that does not suck so bad you cant turn on Radio. Live on Everclear:)

  • With my big lack boots and my suitcase I do believe I will find myself a new place. Great, Positive, Fun! We need this type of music back and slash music that does not suck so bad you cant turn on Radio. Live on Everclear:)

  • this is the shit

  • why coulnt i be old enough to enjoy the 90s when i was there grrrr

  • I think you have to be at least a teenager when a song comes out in order for it to be considered your generation's music. For this song, that would 1982 or older. It doesn't mean you can't remember and like it, but it's not your generation. It would be like me trying to say that Led Zeppelin or Disco was my music because I was born in the 70s.

  • @BigPoppaChump

    This is my Bf's youtube account, but I disagree totally with ur statement. I was 10 when this song came out, but i was popular for years after that.. I even saw them play this live when i was in highschool and it was AWESOME. This is the kind of song that elicits feelings in all who hear it....

  • @theminorsetback Everclear is a Gen-X band. Unless you're Gen-X, this isn't your generation's music. I'm glad you really like and are moved by their music, but you are Gen-Y. No matter how much you and others of your generation like them, they are always going to be associated with Gen X. I'm sorry if Lady Gaga and The Jonas Brothers are what your generation might be associated with in future history books, but that's just the way it works out sometimes.

  • @BigPoppaChump I was born in 95...So that means I'm Gen-X! And this isn't some clique, some faggot popularity contest from highschool. Music is music. So I like the beatles! Does that mean I'm from the 60s? NO. Do I have to be from the 60's to enjoy or appreciate the music? NO. You're pathetic, it's like you're laying claim to the music that you grew up listening to. Nobody gives a fuck dude (cept for me, because it pisses me off to see comments like this.) Immature little shit-dick...Fuck off.

  • @TheOlympiaLowlife Music is more then words and notes. It is a reflection and expression of a certain time and place. You like The Beatles and so do I, but we can never truly experience them the way Baby Boomers did. We'll never know the feeling of seeing them perform on Ed Sullivan and Beatlemania or the power "Revolution" had while the Viet Nam war and peace rallies were going on. You have to be certain age to "get" the full effect of a song and its era.

  • @BigPoppaChump I don't think these guys are following what you're saying. You are doing well to remain pleasant. I get what you're saying, it's not that you can't listen to music from "other generations", you are saying that music has associations with the time period in which it was released. That is pretty plain to see. It's too bad these folks are not catching on to that, it's a good point, and not at all derogatory. I think they are misunderstanding.

  • @TheOlympiaLowlife

    95? you mean 85? 'cause either way you wouldn't be Gen-X. If you were born in 85 you would be Gen-Y

  • @TheOlympiaLowlife I don't think that's what he was saying. Seems like he's just saying music is associated with the period when it was released, not that anyone else can't listen to or enjoy it.

  • I am still living with your ghost......

  • SUPERB SOUND ;D

  • i was born in 95 so i dont remember the ninties but i love this era's music actually anything from about 55 onwards is pretty good until you get to rap(which in my opinion sucks) so yeah oh and i love my long hair(its cool) and flanel shirts are awesome

  • 27 people want to live in Juneau.

  • I was born in 1994, so I don't remember too much about the 90's. But what I do remember is a hell of a lot better than the world we live in today. I listen to these older bands because it brings me back to a time when my hardest decision was picking what color crayon I wanted to use.

  • @templerunes

    you suck

  • @UboobSuks Fail troll is fail.

  • In my opinion the best Everclear song

  • @GrizzlyRecoveryZone1 you an alot other people including me

  • Comment removed

  • My boyfriend used to play this for me on his guitar in the morning! xo Miss ya Joshey!

  • After all these years I still love this song

  • great "wake up people" song

  • god you youngsters know everclear ?! I was born in 1985 and when I was 13 I would listen to everclear's tape (yes tape!) everyday in my yellow walkman ! haha

  • Comment removed

  • @thepsychoqueen "Youngsters"?  Born in 85 ? LOL ! You kill me! I remember records and 8 Tracks!!! lol!

  • @JZilla67 haha yeah I guess, but I doubt Everclear was on a 8 track !

  • @thepsychoqueen You are not allowed to use the term "youngster" if you were born after the 70's.

  • @Reyelee From an old person perspective maybe ;)

  • Born 95 and can appreciate 80's and 90's rock

  • Born 89... cant forget this...

  • Favorite Everclear Song

  • Nostalgia is the term for what you're feeling. The 90's wasn't better. It was just the first thing you experienced. And the first things are always the best.

  • @XxposinbladexX nostalgia is not as good as it use to be

  • This song is really good.

  • Damn im almost 20... has it really been that long?

  • Yeah watch the world die...

  • Really? There are people that give this song a thumbs down? Yeah, it may not be the most thought provoking or epic song, but it still rocks!

  • long live the 90s

  • yeah.. wish the 90's would come back... i miss when mtv was was for music and kick ass shows... not gay ass crap...

  • Love Everclear. All the '90's kids know that our shit was good,weird, and uniquely ours.

  • @Motleychick91 booyah :)

  • @deshahubbell hell yes

  • @Motleychick91 im a 90s kid and still im wearrin my cheep flannels

  • @Motleychick91 Tool, Alice In Chains, Hell yes.

  • finally i found this song

  • I took my acoustic to the beach in Santa Monica and played this.

  • This song fits today!!!!

  • Born in 83 Remember the flannels, chain wallets and courderoys. Now I see rappers wearing flannels. I also see the emos and think man I remember when I thought my life sucked that bad. lol. Guess stuff does come back around every 20 years.

  • Comment removed

  • santa cruz, monterey, davenport, the lighthouse, the pier, 18th street, yacht harbour, the boardwalk...i miss them all so much. even tho everclear aren' t local, they make me feel like home. please keep on doing what you're doing, my friends.

  • I'm building a time machine. First stop?

    The 90's. Damn skippy.

  • @chubbilypanda "Damn Skippy" XD I'm so using that, thanks man!! xx

  • @chubbilypanda can i come along?

  • @chubbilypanda Don't forget the 80's

  • @chubbilypanda Take me with you! haha

  • @chubbilypanda you know I'm in. :D

  • born in 1990, this kind of music was all i knew growing up in CA. this is still one of my favortie songs of all time.

  • song of the day!!!!!

    i'm sorry but i love this song despite my two $40 jaywalking tickets from the santa monica police department.

  • My 3rd favorite band of all time! Behind KISS and Led Zeppelin!

  • @vinylcollector08 haha zeppelin is great ;O

  • I don't want to be the bad guy. Totally the words I was thinking of. This song is awesome!

  • THEY FUCKING ROCK!

  • It is so sad that the corporations even took control of musical creativity. Now we have...(Fill in the blank)

  • Stupid kids.. "I was born in ( 89-95 ), and I remember these days!".. Shut up. If you thought work boots were completely acceptable to go to a formal dance in, if you wore your jeans until they ripped (instead of the pre ripped bull Sh*t they make today), if you thought wool sweaters made sense even in the summer, if plaid was a colour of choice NOT a pattern, if you thought long hair was cool again, you were a kid of the 90's.

  • @Scruuf Dude, i was born in '92; yet the whole bit about work boots, old jeans, long hair, and plaid still applies to me. Hence, according to your vaguely contradictory logic, one did not need to be born in the 80's to be a kid of the 90's.

  • @Scruuf The 90's were alot more than just 6 bands and the click that dressed like them. In the 90's anything went. I was 20 years crazy in 1990 and that where I kicked off.

  • @TheIkkap I hear you bud. 20 years crazy is a good way to put it. But its more or less a generalization of the 90's. The "6 bands" are an idea, not a total blanket, cause I could spend hours listing bands from the 90's that kicked ass, but to get a good idea of the 90's, Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Blind Melon, those are at least good starts. :)

  • @Scruuf Alice in Chains was one of my absolute favorites and Sound Garden, Beastie Boys, Infectous Grooves, etc....

  • @Scruuf I was born in 93, and i totally agree with you, the music was better and it was a lot less mixed so you know it was legit. I still wear the same pair of jeans three times a week becuase it's nonsense to wear one pair of $60 jeans that are already torn up, wtf, I wansn't full on knowing of 90s but looking back at it, it all makes sense. 2000s are great, but shitty acceptance

  • @Skakid789 In the 90's there were plenty of pretty boys paying $200 for a pair of jeans that looked like Bon Jovi's.

  • @Skakid789 In the 90's there were plenty of pretty boys paying $200 for a pair of jeans that looked like Bon Jovi's. Every generation has awesome music and shitty music. We get to decide what we listen to even when corporations are shoving their choice down our throat. It just so happens that now they can take anyone and make them sound like mariah carey. Not that I am a big mariah fan, I just acknowledege that she has an amazing voice. (and boobs)

  • @TheIkkap You are completely right in every way.

  • @TheMrDAMO Thank You.  Most people on youtube tell me to go fuck myself. Its nice to be agreed with.

  • @TheIkkap Even if people yell at you its Ok because you are expressing your opinion, but in this case since you are right it would be a fact. Especially about Mariah Carey in both ways.

  • @TheMrDAMO  thanks she is yummy

  • @TheIkkap dude i completely agree with you about everything you said. i certainly agree about the boobs cause lets be honest, who doesnt like a good pair of boobs?

  • @TheIkkap can't help but agree with you there...seems right now every band has to sound like Nickelback or similar to it to get on the radio...It just makes you wonder how many great bands are out there that go undiscovered because of the music industry's dilligent ignorance.

  • @Maxharddrive64 There's good stuff out there still, just gotta ignore the radio! :-) People like all of us listening to this music and wanting better stuff are on the right track. We just have to keep turning over rocks and finding good bands...

  • @TheIkkap you can still hear when the song means something to the person singing it, and you can still tell by the word choice, metaphors, and simile's if the person is an artist or just someone who wanted to be famous.

  • @addictedtotoads I agree with you. I like everclear. Did you get the impression that I didn't think he was an artist. I do think he is an artist.

    I think the glam bands were artist too. Even if I make fun of them they are entertainers so they are doing their art.

  • @TheIkkap i was just elaborating on what you were saying. not mad at you :P

  • @TheIkkap amen man, amen

  • @Scruuf Bro just shut the fuck up and listen to the song dont make fun of the kids and how they dress just sit by and watch it happen you fucker ohhhh look at me i lived in the 90s and i like to complain about the stupidest shit on FUCKING YOUTUBE ass hole just listen to the song and dont even comment fuck i hate people like you

  • @halopro1225 Five dollars says you're the kind of kid whose mother still picks out their clothes, or you shop at Hot Topic, or you have a diary. I have to say as well, posting that you hate people who post, when there is the option to post, is kind of hazy when it comes to common sense. You posted back, to say you hate people who post opinions. Good on you. :)

  • @Scruuf Wooooow you got me right on the dot, 1. i dont shop at hottopic its fucking gay ass store 2. my mom is dead ass hole 3. you can go fuck your self. :)

  • @halopro1225 If I could do that I wouldnt be sitting on the internet. :D

  • @Scruuf that was the best reply ever :D

  • @Scruuf god your a lucky son of a bitch. i dream of the 90's and i support my love for wearing my cutoffs as many chances i get

  • @Scruuf wow man, you need to get laid.

  • @gnr4life23 ... Coming from someone whos tag is "GnR4Life(insert random unique-ish number here)", I'll take that as a compliment.

  • @Scruuf nah dude its cool to buy jeans that are already ripped and that cost twice the money

  • @JohnnyYankee14 The cool thing is having so much fun with your jeans until it rips by the knee.

  • @mr559 clearly you didnt get my sarcasm

  • @Scruuf HS class of '93 and the girls were sanding down there jeans on the middle school bus in the 80's and dudes had to dirty their own hats because abercrobie was still for old golfers but poseurs are poseurs. Plaid and work boots I still consider acceptable attire for just about anything except my grandmother's funeral. Wool sweaters in the summer is totally an 00's hipster affectation. Wool caps with a T shirt were totally Seattle though.

  • @Scruuf That is so true.

  • @Scruuf Man but seriously, I was born in 90. And I swear I was born too late for the stuff I like. I'd rather have been a teen in the 90s.

  • one of the BEST  SONGS EVER!!!!

  • one of the BEST SONGS EVER!!!!

  • make a damn time machine already people!!!!

  • Somehow Everclear made a rock song more head-bangable than most metal songs.

    Great song

  • wow those 27 people must have missed the like button =(

  • Man ive been trying to figure out the name of the sing forever and then X103.9 played it and im all like "OH CRAP THATS THESONG" .....awesome

  • was born in 94 but i remeber from 97 to 99... miss it=[ everything was so simple

  • The 90's fucking rock!

  • make this fucking century yours

  • the 90s are over dude. The great recession is over. obama is in and osama is on the run beside alot of music isnt club music anyway. yall gotta stop watchin television for 5 hours a day

  • @franellew i agree. i mean, half the people who LOVE the nineties werent even around for most of them, and if they were, they dont remember it well. i mean, if you were born in the nineties, you really wouldnt know how good they were at the time. but for those of us who werent 5 years old, they werent that great. nostalgia is always better than the present i suppose

  • @theplaceblog Just like how high school sucks while you're in it, then once you get into the real world you realize how good you had it.

  • @theplaceblog fucking bullshit dude. i was i member of the 90's club, and i can tell u, they were a darn sight better than the crud coming out today. when u really think about it, rock and rap have ran their respective miles. back in the late 80's, music was going downhill, and the grunge scene, not to mention the gangter rap wave, reinvigorated tired genre's. now we are just waiting for the next pioneers to move in and shake the shit up, its gone stale again..... thats the nature of the beast

  • @TheRis81 I don't understand why everyone thinks the 90's were 6 bands and people that tried to look like them. Grunge was around for like 4 years. What about TECHNO and the rave scene?? I partied at the Tunnel and The Limelight. What about heavy metal??? Remember FUNK like The Infectious Grooves??? What about Nine Inch Nails?? Remember Queensryche???? 

  • @TheIkkap u may have a point there....im just a rock fan, reminiscing on my glory days.... and yes i do remember NIN, awesome shit.

  • @TheRis81 Back in the 90's I was young and full of potential. Now I just got alot of cool stories from the 90's. Boy oh boy they are some good stories though.

    Your right, Someone does always come around and reinvent music. In 2000 it was eminem,

  • @TheIkkap and now.....? perhaps dub rave? lol

  • @TheIkkap Or softer music, I.E Sublime, Blind Melon, etc. Or punk music, I.E Greenday (It's true!! They were punk at one point!), Pennywise, etc. Or rock in general, the non-grunge kind i.e 7 Mary 3, The Toadies, Violent Femmes, etc. NiN was awesome. But as for the 90's, bands like Alice in Chains, Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Bush, Pearl Jam, are all a good start for someone looking to explore the music scene. :)

  • Gawd can somone please take me back to the f'ing 90's! BTW, I never wished I was a teen during the 80's...in fact I'm glad I was so young that I don't remember much of it. Would have loved to have been around during the 70's though...

  • Is it me, or does the bassist look like Lou Diamond Phillips just a little?

  • The people that like the music of today will say the same thing about the music of 10 years from now. In 2020 people of today will say how Justin Beiber and Lady Gaga were the shit in 2010. It always happens, with everything in entertainment.

  • lil' wayne bithces!!!

    wtf that looks wierd on the comments for this video right lol

    this song is AWESOME!!!!!

    i might have add

    hey look a dog

  • How the FUCK did the lesbian Justin Bieber become popular after music like this?!?!

  • There is no more real stuff these days. Lady Shmaga, Justin Shmieber and kesha shmesha and all the hip crop can die. Please, do us a favor. Bring back the good old times!!

  • i wish i was born in the 80's so i could experience the 90's as a teenager.
