[joegrimm218]

[tripplayer]

seen just friends,liked it,but heard the song before then,not for katy perry,lol

[MyThisisaname]

Thumbs up if your here because Fountains of wayne is a decent band

[ryguy2k7]

Thumbs up if you are here because you had the CD as a teenager and didn't even realize it was in Just Friends.

[buttsmackible]

So this is the slut you have been banging behind my back? Me? NOT YOU WRINKLES!

[bzahn84]

this has to be the best music video ever!

[revolutionaryhero100]

anyone here becauses they like the band rather than because of a cover or film. or is it just me

[mtmessmer]

@revolutionaryhero100 stop trying to make yourself seem special. Everyone can appreciate the song regardless of where they heard it.

[yovelou]

just friends the best movie ever

[desireeeex1]

What movie is this from

[SifuNataru]

good. I hear it until now, cuz I knew the song because i heard perry's (the cover).. but that is good. Is nice

[tojonegi2]

Somehow this song makes me cry :'(

[XxxEggbirdxx]

i love how the tree gets bigger after the leaves fall

[purgatory1234]

i love fountains, they f_ _ _in` rock!!!

[parddz]

Just Friends took me here :)

[annekofanie]

reminds me of my love ... that is somewhere far far away ... and i will probably never see him again..

[leandrooalmeida11]

Katy Perry Is Better ....

[ImKiersten]

@leandrooalmeida11 Suck it.

[SillyCee3]

I'm just here cause I like Fountains Of Wayne

[laxhottie36]

Just friends<3

[toadfaceass]

everybody has a special someone that this song describes perfectly, i know i do...

<3

[brainlessDeaD]

Regardless of the singer, the song alone is awesome.

[Stauderhorse]

This reminds me of "Flying" from Magical Mystery Tour.

[Ahtehify]

Am I alone in loving this song without having seen that movie or heard that cover?

[isaiis666notez]

Better than ms. Perry. Way better.

[YolondaHayes]

Thumbs up if you're not here from Just Friends OR Katy Perry but because you know and Love Fountains of Wayne.

[HillaryTarrant]

I knew this song from Just Friends before Katy Perry's version. I love this version but I have to say that I prefer Katy's because I can sing along to it.

[SillyCee3]

Katy Perry did an okay job, but the ORIGINALS are always the BEST!

[MaximusTheNerd]

Why does there always have to be a reason for you to come here!? Can't you just be an insane Fountains of Wayne fan, who are in themselves a horribly underrated band.

[joeyboyjoeba]

Song makes me think about my cat that just got put down, I'll miss you mate xx

[furiousfuryan]

@joeyboyjoeba Your cat can never come back though. LOLOLOLOLOL

[joeyboyjoeba]

@furiousfuryan What kind of arsehole are you?

[furiousfuryan]

@joeyboyjoeba I was just kidding man, I'm sorry about your cat.

[larissacpm]

I prefer the version of Katy, i<3

[matt10LFC]

Just Friends is such a great and underrated movie and the soundtrack is great. Katy Perry can blow me.

[GrimmReaperess]

This song makes me wish things were the way they used to be <3

[mangoprojects]

Thank you.

[GMFinntroll]

i dislike that when looking up this song katy perrys version is above fountains of waynes :(

[3dwardcullen69]

Thumbs up if you're here because of Just Friends and not Katy Perry

[elrugged1]

@3dwardcullen69 Im not here because of Katy Perry, but I thought she sounded great when she did this song.

[3dwardcullen69]

@elrugged1 indeed.

[YouTriibe]

@3dwardcullen69 i like this comment, but i also like that katy perry did a cover

[Kioliab]

@3dwardcullen69 I'm here because this song is great.

[ohbella1]

@3dwardcullen69 hell yeah! she killed it :p just like glee killed Total Eclipse of the Heart and every other song they make mockery of :p

[jaytech3000]

@3dwardcullen69 yes!



[abcjc1]

[candyperfumeboy13]

[xwexarexbulletsx]

Stacy's Mom is nothing compared to this beautiful song. THIS is the song of FoW.

[TheCoutureGirlie]

Jersey Girl for Lyfe <3

[ScrawnyNoMore]

left hackensack to get her

[peachrocker1]

"sometimes I wonder where you are, probably in LA. That seems to be where everybody else ends up these days" A truer statement has never been said

[noteurimpie]

So fucking sad :(

I mean seriously.. almost made me cry..

And stop being a faggot lsaying u prefer Katy perry's version.. we don't care :(-

[marianopeacock]

i like this version... but katy perry's version is even better :D

[26dgaf]

@marianopeacock katy perrys a joke

[abcjc1]

gotta get back to my hackeysack

[polkhigh4touchdowns]

in fact, if it were amy smart its completely normal, she´s my gal...if she played her cards right she could have me

[polkhigh4touchdowns]

it´s not pathetic mate,i think we all have some chick it seems we left behind or vica versa since we left school,but it´s highly probable the image you have of her or the time in your life is not the reality,things & people change sooo much i was in love with a girl all through highschool so much that it hurt,but since school finished i left australia, have lived in italy, spain and the u.s..but still get that warm sensation when i think of her, however im sure we´d have nothing in common now

[antaresmajoris]

just left the sack

[CanuckBoy1957]

Hi Beck,This is one of my favourite songs of all time(cool little video too!).BTW ,Hackensack is a town in New Jersey. Sorry but cannot get this tune out of my head!!!!!!

[klovesmusic12]

[tooooooommy]

you ruined the imagery of a decent song with this crappy paint drawing

[niaj4]

This song makes me think of more and more people whose life seems to be moving on unlike mine... Nice illustrations :)

[KidCudiandEminemrock]

This is going to happen to me my friend is amazing at soccer going to get a scholarship to college then go pro and I am going to be left behind :(

[catiebear35]

i heard this song on Just Friends. xD

[longboarder771]

rthrbsrfn01 You are not pathetic,, I had an old friend in school that I miss, like yourselt I don't think she knew thay I existed, I still miss her & wonder what she is doing? The last time I saw her was in 1961. Some people you just never forget

[cbryan023]

Sweet song.

[heyyninaa]

i like this song. i like this version. i like katy's version as much, if not more... so everyone needs to stop hating on her, kthx <3

[freedomland11]

[JackieSaam]

Cutest video ever!

[anthonyszy7]

the katy perry version was cool, but this one is just so much more real. i love it.

fountains of wayne is cool too..

[ptgb57pt]

I miss her so much.

[nandokaoticos]

[nandokaoticos]

This video is very beautiful, seen here in Sao Paulo, Brazil =)

[missSTACEY291]

I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!!

[Skullz930]

Cute vid!!

[andrea70649]

yo conozco esta cancion mediante katy perry y es mucho mejor la vercion de ella que la de este grupo como q la cancion le queda mejor a una mujer es mas femenista pero de todos modos me gusta la cancion porque tiene un ritmo pegajoso

[melron]

Does anyone think this song sounds a little like Waterloo Sunset?

[BoredinTheLibrary]

katy perry's version is worth almost as much as ads on vevo

[freedomland11]

@BoredinTheLibrary......thank you....I dont know who likes her stupid version!! this one is the best

[BPerone201]

This song is amazing... lol, I'm from Hackensack

[renethel]

@BPerone201

Yeah, it's a beautiful song. One of my relatives lived in Hackensack.

Jersey represent! lol!

[Teyis927]

@BPerone201 I'm originally from The Bronx but have been living in Hackensack for almost 3 years now.

I <3 Hackensack!!

from this proud New Yorker <3

[BPerone201]

@Teyis927

A lot of ppl in Hackensack seem to be from the BX. Hackensack has great people in and out, I miss it.

[Teyis927]

@BPerone201 So come back!! lol

[KidCudiandEminemrock]

@Teyis927 From the Bronx to well Bronx Vill just off of yonkers :)

[pxe]

I just gave Katy Perry's cover of this a listen and holy crap, it's awful. Like, so awful I'm wondering if the comments genuinely speculating over which one is better are 100% sarcastic. Christ.

[stu63]

saddest song ever.

[Zhardi87]

hmmm brings back good memories

[Pat121V]

this song is on the first cd i ever got, ahh memories



[EngleSackJus]

07601

[TheTracyburd]

[countryboy1776]

[docterphreak]

I'm amazed by how much that stick figure resembles Christopher Walkin... 0:38

[itssplendiferous]

Lmao I live in hackensack.

[tache426]

@itssplendiferous i live in heights lol

[tditos]

i love your video

[piGfuK3r]

What a pretty song... So poignant in such a funny touching movie... It's like when that Coldplay song drops in Wedding Crashers... Some of these music supervisors on films actually know what they are doing. Wonder who this song is actually about...

[ZephyrSamurai]

i dont really know who would read this, but i had this best friend in 2nd grade who i havnt seen since. (im a junior in high school) and i never knew what happened to her. well, she found me on facebook a week ago and we got to talking again like nothing had ever happened. p.s. she lives in ohio now :/ see you around AJ

[IWantUrBallsSmashed]

Hey? part of the solo is cut off? Cute animation

5Starz

[MissSarahAshleigh]

LOVE! Just friends is the best film ever

[manunited910]

These songs truly embody New Jersey, Fountains of Wayne is so underrated

[Lordlose123]

This Song kind of reminds me of the movie "A lot like Love" where two people meet each other again and again through their lifes.

[3Oh3metrostation]

@Lordlose123 thats so weird cuz i jst heard this song in th movie 'just frendz' n i was jst about 2 see 'a lot like love rite now..u like read my mind! both these movies r really good n they go with th song perfctly ;)

[sharon879]

katy perry's version is better... deeper..

[MrJakebrgr]

@sharon879

How the hell is the person who covers a songs version deeper than the person whose wrote its version?

If you knew how it felt to write a song, then you'd know the emotion that goes into it. When you listen to a song someone wrote, you only hear a FIFTH of what goes into that song from their perspective.

-Brgr

[sharon879]

@MrJakebrgr hey i only said my opinion.. i meant it's deeper to ME.. when Katy sings it i really feel that it touches my soul.. i am more connected to Katy's version. no need to judge me for that.. of course that when a person writes a song he is feeling the lyrics more than a person who covers it, but it doesn't necessarily mean that the listener likes the original better.. it's a matter of taste and connection the the singer's voice. and Katy's version raised goose bumps on my hands.. :)

[MrJakebrgr]

@sharon879

No you didn say IMO,

You said "Katys version is better.."

You are worried about sounds and voices,

Not the emotion put forth through that guitar, or those words, or that bassline.

-Brgr

[entranadrag]

if i hear this i think about a girl who is watching out the window just thinking of me

[smoogirl]

0:19, is it me or does she have a beard xD ?

[dalonso9]

@smoogirl Yes, she have one

[buzzedbunny123]

I played this on the guitar for someone incredible today, I absolutely love this song <3

[dragonsofly]

i cant stop freaking crying!!!!! =(

[DarkyJammy]

This song is...omg....

I love it =)

[mongoose1288]

who ever made this vid for this song...good job. it made me smile lol

[IthinkitsaDanny]

This allways reminds me of my friend She Moved to arkansas :( she was like my sister I'll never forget you E.E

Peace out'

S.D.B.A.S

[143localgurl]

Love this song ever since i first heard it

[killacrack420]

whoa whoa whoa fountains of wayne.. hackensack.. they aint talkin bout north jersey are they?...

[IthinkitsaDanny]

@killacrack420 i gusse so!

[RainSpy14]

you cant ever beat an original. and i think we all know at least one person that seems to have moved on to bigger and better things. and we probably all wish they'd come back for awhile...

[rthrbsrfn01]

I know its pathetic but this song reminds me of an old friend that left my hometown 3 years ago and she probably forgot that i even exist but every now and then i think of her. I miss you J.G.Z.

[bee09271988]

@rthrbsrfn01 lets find her!

[goodiegoodie94]

@rthrbsrfn01 well what is facebook for!? jk lol

[keithryan1025]

[kabalvq]

@rthrbsrfn01 well.. theres facebook... maybe you can find her there...

[shalini13784]

Best version of hackensack and best theme!! loved it...

[CueWunAye]

This song reminds me of a girl who moved to a bigger city to become an actress =/

[thingq]

i live in hackensack haha, but im pretty sure nobodies sitting around for somebody

[Ace420PL]

Hackensack? what state?

[thenerdnetwork]

@Ace420PL New Jersey....

[HavokOnHolls]

Nothing like your 1st love... this is what this song reminds me of. Great song :)

[mirycherry]

i think katy perry's version is better! i like most!

[shibbyguy420]

@mirycherry No way. Her voice sucks on it.

[jloli92]

loveeed this video ,soo cutee

[munchychy1993]

katys version is so much better i hate this one

[cheesenibbler123]

@munchychy1993 if you hate it why the fuck did you even bother commenting gtfo idiot go back to listening to covers of songs and keep your stupid opinion to yourself

[munchychy1993]

@cheesenibbler123 every ones intitled to an opinion so do go off on me. sorry we dont think alike

[cheesenibbler123]

@munchychy1993 its not about that, you just stated something that really was just plain wrong all she did was cover it its like claiming that every hollywood remake of japanese horror films are better because they look better even though they lost all the suspense, character and plot of the originals all she did was cover it she put nothing else into it

[aabcdefghijake]

@cheesenibbler123

Well, you just made yourself look like an idiot.

[cheesenibbler123]

@aabcdefghijake how do you figure that then, eh? you must know everything please enlighten me, instead of just coming out with statements with nothing to back them up

[aabcdefghijake]

@cheesenibbler123

Well, considering it's an opinion, and you said it was, "just plain wrong", I didn't think I needed to explain myself.

[cheesenibbler123]

@aabcdefghijake thats because it was a incredibly stupid opinion to me I can say whatever the hell i want about peoples opinions and people can say whatever the hell they want about my opinion doesnt mean im gonna give 2 fucks about it I could debate this all fucking day if you wanted too about the shortcomings of opinions but honestly speaking I really cannot be bothered you seem the type that will take a persons argument apart with the smallest mistake so its just a waste of time

[aabcdefghijake]

@cheesenibbler123

I passed out while reading that sentence.

[cheesenibbler123]

@aabcdefghijake GOOD ONE

[CaptainBlackpen]

Katy can't even sing her OWN songs right, let alone this one -.-

[klovesmusic12]

@CaptainBlackpen true that

[monkeytimez]

I like BOTH katy and this version :)

[megaman8484]

[HeartOGlobe]

This is such a ridiculously cute song, introduced to me by my boyfriend :)

[estela256901]

i like katys version better

[psychodad2563]

Estela256901:Katy's version better?Youve got to kidding right?She sounds like a yoddler!Get real!

[estela256901]

@psychodad2563 no u get real he sucks at this singing

[psychodad2563]

Estela256901:I hope your job is not of a critic of music.Because you SUCK at it..CUNT!

[VioletBurst]

Hahhha thats actually really funny XD

But I still kind of like Katy's a little better.
