  • NIGGERS

  • Ben is a clever lyric writer..

  • Blink used to be punk. Then they went pop-punk. I still love them though.

    Screeching Weasel is fuckin awesome. I have a lot of friends that are gay and people just can't fucking get over it. That is why I love the lyric in here "You don't have the balls to be a queer" hahaha so true.

  • you have gay friends or youre the fag?

  • Uhm, I'm a girl for one, and two I'm not a lesbian but I have gay friends

  • i got the sticker of the weasel on my guitar

  • whered you get it?I cant find any stickers or shit so i just draw on mine :)

  • I was talking to my mom. And she was asking me why people thought Blink182 are punk and I replied that I honestly don't know. Besides their influences they're pop. My mother is 42,she's been into punk since she was 16, I don't think a bunch of 15 to 20 year olds know more about music than that. Blink182 is pop.

  • (@my last comment) although travis barker was good in the Transplants.

  • Because they USED to be punk.Everything up to enema of the state is amazing punk rock.Listen to dude ranch,cheshire cat theyre, early demos (flyswatter, demo#2).THats the real blink.

    PS i wish i had a mom like that

  • @LongviewGD182 , I see what you mean. Their early stuff is pretty good. I just don't really like the way they sound early or newer. But I see what you mean. And yeah my moms pretty cool. :)

  • totally agree LongviewGD182 - blink's old albums up to enema of the state are amazing. kick ass part from romeo and rebecca:

    "What have you said, reach out your hand

    There's a black shadow on my wall

    But as I look into my mind

    I can see that girls are a waste of time" LOL .. awesome!!

  • You're mother is awesome.

  • @austintmetal , hell yes. :D

  • this SW song is covered by famous czech band TŘI SESTRY - and it is also great :-) find it on youtube (search tři sestry homosexuál)

  • best bands in the world are green day and screeching weasel

  • i love SW amazing band great punk song

    whoever said Bink 182 was better than these guys well that dude is on crack lol and Green Day are sell outs now they don't give a crap about the music they just want to rich and more famous nowadays

  • I'm not saying that, that's all they think about (money) i think they can't write about teen agnst and crap like that because they are all married or been married and plus it is pretty hard to write about a time in your life when your about over sixteen years older then you were back then so i don't blame 'em What i'm trying to say is they only write about love and stuff i'm not saying they are the crappest band on earth so no offence

  • how did he get served?...you just started sucking green days balls and acted like a totall fkn douche..also adding YOU GOT SERVED makes you seem like a fkn asshole 13 yr old..

  • yes! thank you. green day fucking sucks. everyhting up to american idiot was good. now they r pathetic sellouts.

  • That just seems confusing. You realize your name is rhcp right?

    To my point: American Idiot wasn't trying to be some punk album or do anything other than just be a really good album. It gained popularity on its own merits; it wasn't playing what's popular just to make money. It was a good fucking album. And that's what the scene lacks from time to time. Remember the direction of radio-punk before AI came out? Simple Plan, Good Charlotte, Avril Lavigne. Those bands died when AI was released.

  • i see what u mean by screen name (which i made up when i was 12) and the difference is that RHCP doesnt come out and say we r hardcore punk. cuz they arent and they know they arent. i stated my opinion. everything up to and including a few songs off of american idiot was good. thats what i think. and u do have a point with simple plan and avril and shit. in a way, they made people start to realize what real punk is. i wud rather listen to green days new album than any of avrils songs though

  • Green Day never came out and called themselves hardcore punk or anything, they avoided labeling themselves as anything like that. They play a mix between melodic punk and a sort of arena rock sound now. It's not bad, it was just a decision they made. It ultimately worked out; they kept most of their fans and made a lot of new fans. And introduced a lot of people into the punk scene. Most of us get into punk through the mainstream forms of it, and forget that along the way.

  • ya i got into punk by rise against and well there not all that punk rock. I guess there old stuff was

  • Ah, man, I watch this shit over and over. It's so fucking good!

    I'm gonna wear my transgender support shit to school and crack skulls if anyone says anything. Who's in?

  • i hope you ass-lickers know this song is a reply to 'I Dont Wanna Be A Homosexual' by Sloppy Seconds..the greatest punk band on earth!!

  • come on youtube. just admit it.. you don't have the balls to be a queer.

  • 1 step ahead of you. sweet song.

  • fuck... could i be and act like a homo?? don't think so... therefore i'm a fucken fag!!! it just takes balls to be who you are! specially if you're a fucken homo...

  • Today I spoke to this girl in my english class, she said Screeching Weasel sucked compared to All Time Low because All Time Low was more popular....

    I dick slapped her right then and there.

  • You should have smacked her for 67,283 for all the people who have heard this song

  • You might just be my hero.

  • puss

  • i want be homo

  • No, you don't man. It's not that I'm ashamed of it, but it's tough dealing with people when you're gay. Some people don't have the balls to be a queer.

  • yay for phenethylamines XD

  • I'm fuckin so punk bro... but my balls are too small to be a queer

  • Now heres a good ol punk rock band just sittin out have a good ol time rockin out thats what music like rock and punk or even metal just get and have a good time!!

  • i wanted to got to riotfest but couldnt it woulda been so awesome these guys nofx the dead milkmen

  • if youre gonna see SW at Riotfest can i get a HOLAA

  • People do take punk to seriously.

    It is just music.

    And admit it... You don't have the balls to be a queer.

  • I think people take punk to seriously.

    It's music people. Just listen and have a good time.

    And why don't you just admit .... that you don't have the balls to be a queer

  • all this telling people wats good and wats bad is very stupid and counter productive. can youtubers realize that opinions are opinions and not facts that can be proven? i love screeching weasel and other pop punk bands but i dont go trashing street punk bands cuz i respect it as good creative music

  • I just did a wee and poo in the potty.

  • And stop with labeling music.

    It's pointless and just starts massive walls of "Blink 182 sucks"

    I'm sick of looking at it.

  • I'm the punkest kid ever!

    I'm gonna write huge paragraphs to show it and say how much I hate other bands because they're famous not because they suck!

    Everybody shut up nobody cares about how punk you are or how awesome you are for not hating gays.

  • If you knew the real meaning of 'punk' You would all stop arguing

    but, well, punk was something made up by the media, we could just call it 6rock, pizzarock or arguealotrock

    because the term 'punk' doesnt have a definitian in music, it's about doing whatever the hell YOU wanna do!

    If you wanna discuss for hours, get into politics!

  • if i was there i'd applaud for sure.

  • Why does everything come down to whos punker than who all the fuckin time?

  • Because most kids, and I stress the KIDS part of this statement, don't know any better than to turn it into a pissing contest. In which the victor is the child who has the most patches, the crustiest leather and the most knowledge of obscure bands that aren't really that good, but people idolize anyway in a vain attempt to gather more punk rock points. Of course then you have the Pop-Punk kids who are a whole 'nother animal. An equally ignorant one I might add.

  • Who wears short shorts. You wear short shorts. You're so full of shit. Why don't you admit that you don't have the balls to be a queer......one of my favaorite weasel songs....fuck yeah.

  • haha thats fucking halarious. i mean i probably couldnt do that myself cuz im sorta just like freaked out by me kissing another dude but i got no problem with other ppl doing it

  • Dude you're my hero. I was actually thinking of doing that to this major homophobe that was ticking me off ( But I can't bring myself to kissing morons ).

  • green day and blink suck!!!!!

    pussy-core punk pisses me the fuck off.

  • pop punk sucks

    it's the exact opposite of what the punk movement stands for. the bands like greed gay and blink-one-eighty-fuck-you are greedy little sellouts who don't write music because it means something but because they can make money off of it. they give punk a bad name, and so do you, LaspeziaPunk27. btw, street punk rules and the lifestyle hardens you, where as shitty pop music makes you think that the world is fuckin wonderful.

    THE WORLD SUCKS, GET USED TO IT!!!

  • Your in the Army? No wonder you like Street Punk. Your into that Working Class Kombat Ready Skinhead Bullshit. Skinheads and Greasers are all Sexist Racist Homophobes. People like you just join the Army because your insecure about how small your dick is. People that practice Yoga can probably kick your ass. The Ramones and Screeching weasel are the heart of Punk Rock. That working class Street Punk shit you listen to is just garbage.

  • @LaspeziaPunk27

    Im enlisted in the army and im a democrat, atheist, vegetarian.

  • green day do suck.

    but blink?if you listen to their old stuff you'll change your mind

  • sometimes they dont have a choice sometimes they gotta serve in the army to pay for college. my brother as much as he doesnt want to has to go in the army to pay college. so go fuck yourself and think before you fucking talk about that

  • dude...i don't care. I feel sorry for your brother. If i wanted to go to college, i'd do anything but support the military....and just for the record....the marines are the "big dogs"....but fuck them, too.

  • yeah i just saw them in minneapolis for the first time and it blew my mind

  • lol what the hell this comment makes no sense at all

  • yeah, this made no sense...

    and i think you're using "straight edge" in the wrong context.

  • Don't, don't, don't...not,not,not...

    Be positive you twat!

  • hey you don't talk to me that way. why do you want trouble?

  • haha yeah same here but im not gay or anything. i hate homophobes

  • arge! If u think that way life is much easier....

    not beig gay (am straight).......but still....heard if for the first time and I like it....the song AND the idea.....

  • why are we talking about green day? how did that happen?

  • agree!!!!

  • I love kids who hate mainstream music because it's the cool thing to do. :D

    Just for the record, it makes you guys look SUPER cool when you fight online. Really, like, kudos dudes. And the inability to spell and use grammar? Bonus points. Keep up the good work gentlemen.

    /sarcasm.

  • green day sucks now.

  • wtf are u talkin about green day changed everything about their old selves

  • They never changed their style to fit in, they just matured naturally as a band. Which is why the new cd sounds like Nimrod.

  • i wouldn't say it sounds like nimrod. nimrod is good. the last vestige of a once glorious band. the new one sounds like they threw american idiot and warning in a blender and hoped for the best. i dunno. they could do better

  • exactly grren day has never changed their style to fit in with the people who think mainstream suks if u had a guitar

    some talent

    and a great band..you'd "sell out" too lahcpunx so shut the fuck up u bitch

  • if you like green day,blink and any other shit you heard on the radio or MTV well your shit. little faggot media latch key kids. the bands mentioned are garbage for the simple reason they sold the music style called punk for the corporations retards!!

  • You're trying to argue that the music sounds terrible simply because it makes money and is corporate. The problem lies in the fact that Green Day still makes music which is pleasant to the ears, and they've not changed their style to fit in with anything.

  • ooh I hate mainstream music cause everyone else likes it blah blah blah. stfu and get a life u stupid piece of shit blink rocks

  • music is music no one should critic you on what you own and what you dont im glad u own american idiot thats what your supposed to do BUY IT!!!! shit I hate people who call u "sell out" and "noob" because u own albums that YOU like its so fuckin gay!!!!

  • It's not gay. Think about it. In no way, is it "gay."

  • sTRUNGOUT, fuck yeah!!! Be sides that shit, all ya kids out there that music u like now, Know where it came from, who da originators were. Cause u prolly think gay day were the first. Google it

  • For fucks sake, does every fucking thing have to come back to a fucking discussion on blink 182 and fucking green day.

    Jesus fucking christ, im glad while i may listen to whats called 'punk' and my mates calling me one, ive always just said fuck that, I am me.

    Your all a bunch of fucking whinging fucks. after classifying and defining yourselves can ya just fuck off please?

  • I don't see why people even try to create some schism based on which era of punk you grew up in or attribute your musical growth to. I grew up during 90s skate punk and third wave ska explosion and shit, and I listen to Green Day as well as Descendents. Fuck it. I'm not the type to decide I don't like American Idiot because it's popular. It's still a great album and the way it flows is really nice. I'm a faggot, so whatever.

  • I feel the same about green day. I don't tell anyone I own American Idiot because I know I'll get pissed on xD.

  • Right on brother!

  • its on the "what are you pointing at?" comp. Any ideas where i might get it on CD? I have it recorded off the record but CD would be nice

  • I know it's on the "kill the musicians" disc

  • I have a different version of this by screeching weasel. hrm

  • Yeah, GreenDay and Blink 182 probably did get some influence from the Weasels. If they grew up in the 80s and called themselves punk, it would be hard NOT to be influenced by SW or the Queers, especially if you grew up on the West Coast. So what?

    SW and the Queers were favorites of mine growing up, along with Black Flag and Bad Religion and Dead Kennedys, etc. I'm not particularly fans of Green Day or Blink, compared to other main stream bands they are at least tolerable in small doses.

  • Also the fact that Mike from Green Day Played bass for SW at one point...

  • and billy was in pinhead gunpowder.same label as queers and screeching weasel.lookout records

  • And Green Day was lookout.

  • you know for a while i didnt like green day or blink 182 just because i thought that hey there not punk enough for me but than i rememberd hey im not gunna be a super poser like alot of people here and i gave them a chance and they are good. word

  • theyr not only good,theyr awesome :D Just kinda changed alot.But i guess its inevitable.Take for example AFI,they used to be amazing and now its like theyr a tottaly different band

  • Who wrote this song ? screeching weasel  or the queers.

  • um.... Ben Weasel...

    It's actually explained on 'Kill the Musicians' and in interviews, he wrote it to appease a gay fan who was mad about the Sloppy Seconds song "I don't want to be a homosexual!", because he felt it was anti-gay. (Ben and me don't see anything wrong with it though)

  • i see where blink 182 got alot of their influence

  • u've bee lurking around in wikipedia haven't you?

  • and u havent?!? stfu

  • no i heard it was one of toms favorite bands on the urethra chronicles and i wanted to hear it and its amazing how similar they sound

  • This is a very nifty song.

    ... Love the melodies.

  • Whats with the hate for Blink & Green Day?, If it wasn't for Green Day I wouldn't have even heard of Screeching Weasel.. :L

  • same here

  • i like this band so much. fuck green day. and blink this is the real deal.

  • Ya can't fuck early green day man ='/

  • wurd. can't hate the dookie. now 21 first century breakdown or whatever that crap is called on the other hand.. lets not get into that.

  • Ok all you little blink loving poser queens, go read the book ``punk is a four letter word`` by Ben Weasel.

    Then come back and talk shit, jesus christ, kids today! lmao

  • Damn straight!!!

  • yeah man yeah man every single band that becomes famous is fueled by greed man! thats why theyre famous because the CORPORATIONS are like hey we'll give you money if you write music the way WE want and they're all like YEAH fuck real music lets sell out weheeee. yeah man, all sell outs. thats why theyre famous!

    dumb shits.

  • fuck blink 182 their shit their mtv punks they just became a band to sell out and get money thats not fuckin punk punk is a way to get away from a world who tries to make you like every1 else

    and by sellin out blink182 became like the rest of the world

    if you get what i mean

  • im gonna start calling the ramones and the clash sell outs to man!the ramones always wanted to make some cash thats why the ystarred in movies and made so many albums and quit cause they couldnt get high enough on the charts!blink and the ramones i hoenstly dotn see much difference.its music sorry that u liek to categorize and be so hateful toweards bands who arent punk enough for ya.its bad way to lvie im telling u i used to be just like ya.now i dont care.

  • SURE blink 182 are punk - just as punk as Avril Lavigne.

  • that is one badass weasel

  • what the fuck, wuts wrong with blink182 assholes. i like both, suck it up

  • I like both Screeching Weasel and Blink182...what's with all the hate?

  • My favorite Screeching Weasel song, which is really saying something.

  • screeching weasel... good

    blink 182... suck

  • ...You just hate him cause he don't have to work

  • Ben Weasel...He's an asshole.

  • i wanna beeee..i wanna be a homosexual :)

  • some parts sound like reckless abandon from blink like two lines the bit where it goes shove it up ur punk ass

  • im a blink fan so i checked these out and u can tell blink as influenced by them some bits sound like parts of a blink song

  • tom says that they are a major influence on his work

  • blink-182 are awesome, and so are screeching weasel :)

  • This isone of the greatest messages a punk rock band could have sung in the mid-90's. Or today.

  • i will always remember blink a skate punk/punk pop band.thats what trhey were back in the 90s not this lame ass mtv bullshit they do now.blink182 WAS screeching weasel but the 90s versions.same lyrics almost the same sound they both played and lvoed catchy punk rock.anybody that tells me blink182 isnt punk obviously never heard of there early stuff or were never born in the 90s.

  • why do you even care if people say blink wether blink is pop, punk rock, or death metal? just listen to what you like to listen to and don't give a shit about pretentious musical snobs!

  • that's what i like to see man,

    be your own person

  • Seattleite218, think about punk-pop vs. pop-punk! =)

  • hmm it seems that every SW vid ive been to recently has talk about blink.WTF

  • pop punk dude but blink 182 is fuckin mainstream mtv bull shit

  • blink182 is mainstream but what the fuck is wrong with that? there a great fuckin band and are getting credit for it,doesnt mean there shit. the ramones made punk and were the first band interviewed on mtv. are they shit cause people listend to them? go fuck yourself. blink 182 are the fricking shit and SW was one of there main musical influences

  • its not that man its that the mainstream bands are driven by money,greed,sex etc plus the labels controll their music and lyics and the lyics are not even honest so its fake as hell besides each "real" punk band is fun and a one of kind now isnt being a honest one of a kind guy then a money greedy guy

  • Ok blink's main influences were bad religion, NOFX, the cure, and screaching weasel. Dude, blink will always be punk because where they came from. There's always a hint of punk in it. AND NOT EXCITING!? they sang about transvestites and fucking dogs, and getting blowjobs. People don't know blink very well obviously. I still think they have a hint of punk now, just not as much. They got older, thats all. But yea i love blink and screeching weasel. Both great bands =]

  • AMEN!

  • just enjoy good music!!! who fuckin cares about fuckin labels, isn't that what punk rock is against?????

  • me? i was anyway?

  • naw, peeps in general

  • love how ppl r trashin blink

    when blink are better musicians, better songwriters, better entrepeneurs,

    and they actually mae a name for themselves. old punk rock is dead,

    its for kids, blink did punk wen they were kids, now that theyre mature, they play more mature music

  • dude blink are nowhere near as good as screeching weasel in any way, cmon have u heard blink live? they suck ass, screeching weasel are fuckin awesome live, tbh thats wat punks love, a decent live show

  • great song :)

    they are much better than blink182, blink is not a punk band, suck.

    my opinion :)

  • fuckin a dude! everyone i talk to is like "yeah i like blink182... punk right?"

    they suck! SxW rule!!!!

  • well blink 182 was punk until they got travis barker.... so technically they WERE punk and WERE really good. 98 is when they started going downhill. both bands are good. screeching weasel is fucking amazing!

  • Blinks not punk, its not pop punk its just pop

  • I wouldn't say that. Blink 182 is a punk band gone mainstream like Green Day, they're just so boring 'cause they don't let emotion rip up their songs... There's not enough controlled chaos in Blink 182, just controlled melody....

  • read my comment carefully. WERE. they WERE before 98. that is why they ARE NOT now. but they used to sound very similar to screeching weasel.

  • yeah, except less exciting.

  • wonderboy is right so leave blink alone.

  • dude, what the fuck! blink is awsome screeching weasel is awsome too. i love them both. i like blink better tho.

  • blink182 who????

  • just want to say, this is my goddamn theme song. blasting this song driving down the road in virginia defines a good chunk of my teenage years.

  • how come they never played big shows ?

    coz like, theres none of their big shows on youtube

    i thought they were a pretty amazing punk rock band ?

    =S

  • how come screeching weasel dont have a lot of songs/videos/concerts on youtube ? aren't they a  very popular punk rock band ?

  • i dont remember saying blink was better then weaseel.if i did plz tell or u must be some dick who likes to start stuff.who knows anything from blinks old stuff i have to say is just as good as screeching weasel.but weasel beats blinks newer stuff.

  • one of my favorite songs by them, sick intro and good statement

  • take it up your punk rock ass!!!

  • try Tri sestry - Homosexual
