Everclear - Heartspark Dollar Sign

[Avinashda]

Goddamn that's one ugly ass chimp nigger , no wonder his mom didn't let him bring her around hahahahaha

[Avinashda]

that's a really ugly black girl by the way ...... all nappy haired and gross haha , I've seen good looking black chicks , this one's a real chimp tho oooooo aaaaaaa hahahaha

[Avinashda]

this song makes people feel weak and vulnerable .......and gives you a bad trip especially when your stoned

[die4tomarrow2day]

We are still only adolesents...... how ...sad♥

[poppaluv]

'66 Riv hosting makeout sessions- dig it!!!

[kenzadelphia]

replace the trailers with row-houses and these kids could be in my hood right now

[HarajukuBarbi3z]

Omg, my boyfriend made me listen to this. This song is exactly how he and I are...

[chrishaven76]

This song is great, but I could do without the visual.

[Laurenmakescorrole1]

This was always one of my favorite Everclear songs...of course the dark/sad ones are deep but so's this one. :)

[douchebag21]

I've been trying to learn this song on the guitar , turns it out it has tons of little riffs and that complicates it to a certain extent , wish they had a guitar pro file for this song

[kawaiicat7]

Great song, great band, great messages throughout their albums

[MegaANWAR786]

LYRICS IRREPLACEABLE

[optikCB]

This album was sooooo slept on. Most people seemed to really catch on to them during the Afterglow era and just forgot how great this whole album was as a whole, not just for Santa Monica. I still regularly listen to this all the time

[bonniebellbutterfly1]

OMG I wanna do Art.....

[TheKafa84]

this song was the first cd i ever bought

[pineappleupside]

90's were the best

[Spacescope17]

Man, Everclear never sounds old, & as always has a great universal message.

[Myeviltwin100]

I love all their albums! just bought world of noise today : )

[akasaart]

i wonder if he actually had a black girlfriend at the time he wrote this song

[spike20x9]

I found the title of this song written in my Biology book xD

[jjmcfadd]

maybe the best lead singer of all time

[faero91]

@jjmcfadd I must disagree, sir. Robert Plant was the greatest lead singer of all time :)

[carterboman]

nothing beats this song love the lyrics

[downloadscc]

yeah it's a great song, too bad i can relate too it :(

[mobear44]

one of my fave songs every...

but what does the title mean? anyone know?

[tellmeitsnottaken]

This was by FAR their best album.

[Everclear51]

Art~!

Just LOVE your songs!!!

[saintjimmy924]

Art hasn't aged a day since this video :P

[Zeaky0arteest]

Hey, I remember this song!

[ColorsBright]

I dont know what it is about this album but every time I listen to it it gives me that APPLE PIE ALL AMERICAN feel. I know there is always that talk about 80s artists being that "all american" music but I would have to admit that Everclears Sparkle and Fade is the 90s alternative ALL AMERICAN music.

[zazalisafrance38]

I do agree. Best album of the 90's. I am a french immigrant and they are unknow n in France. I listen to Sparkle and Fade in 2006...far after the fact. But still, it is all good.

[hecatesmagickchild]

I know we all have moments of racism, but that is so way out of line, I would never do that if I had a son or daughter that had a bf/gf of a different race, thats so ugly and stupid, love is more important than race, not a big deal, thats why I love this song.

[fitz4609]

True Luv, is there anything better?

They truly cared for each other and could care less about the opinion of others.

A song way a head of its time.

[9musiCreation9]

i dont remember that scene with the fat old guy payin the kids to kiss and take their clothes off does that mean im getting old as well....these guys wrote some good ones though .........memories

[00Boelli00]

the sound isn´t so good....

[Piritu]

This reminds me of the time I had a Sicilian girlfriend by my parents thought she was black and kept calling her a jungle bunny.

[Flashpoint922]

No offense but your parents are racist bigots. Glad you are different however.

[iloveasiangirls]

You know, a racist bigot is someone who would make a judgement about someone they know nothing about, based on a single generalization. Like you just did.

I'm not trying to pick a fight, I just thought it was an interesting point.

We can all agree that Everclear rocks though, right? :]

[Flashpoint922]

I judged his parents comments on his own girlfriend as a "jungle bunny" enough to make that assumption. I think that would be enough to go on that one statement alone, wouldn't you think?

[iloveasiangirls]

You have a point, but then again there's a lot of stuff we don't know. For all we can tell, his parents could've been of the same race and made the comment jokingly. Unlikely sure, but possible nonetheless.

Wow. I've become everything I've ever hated: a politically-correct wordsmithing nutjob :/

lol

[KG902]

I'm not siding with either side, just noting that its refreashing to see an argument on youtube that is articulated properly, has relatively correct grammar and punctuation, and a defendable point and counter-point brought by each side.

I've generally stopped argueing on youtube based on people's lack of logic when it comes to proving a point.

Stupidity is contagious, and the internet is a thriving cesspool.

[iloveasiangirls]

lol Thank you, that made my day :)

[theScytheofGod]

Hahahahahahahahahahha!

[figs1984]

i remember this was one of the first 10 albums i purchased...good old sparkle and fade

[theScytheofGod]

great album.

[notyoursavior78]

"We will never find a place where will we just fit in. You are possesed with a power bigger than than the Pain."

Heartspark $

Great band in the day, World of Noise is epic, too bad they fizzled out. Hell even Songs from an American movie (both parts) are ok after that *shrugs*

It's not even the same band anymore now iirc.

[notyoursavior78]

I mean it's Art's own band and not even Eklund or Montoya are in it anymore.

Pfffft.

[cuteblackchick86]

wth... how ks it possibl that I have been listening to this band for years and I've never seen this video? I'm a black girl in an interracial relationship!

[cuteblackchick86]

Please excuse the typos. It's late.

[heyitsmejojo]

im a molotto hermaphradite in a relationship with myself

[NYChickie]

The vid was played on mtv briefly when this album came out a decade ago. I have the album, but I don't really remember so many kissing scenes in that mtv version - oh well, maybe I'm just gettin old...

[cuteblackchick86]

One of my all-time favorite bands. First time seeing this video, though.

[roenickfan111]

Damn.... Everclear wrote cool tunes. Summer of '96... I miss ya.

[TreuerDeutscher]

.. great song, haven´t heart it for 10 years or so ...

[camisadelgolf]

This is probably the best song on the CD.

[chiken420]

number 1 of 1996??

[g0ldbuG]

i think this came out in 94 but i could be mistaken

[chiken420]

ya maybe i dont really know !

[g0ldbuG]

1994

[chiken420]

ok but it was still popular in 1996 i think ..

[Leinieslightman]

no 1995

[boyweed]

1995 was the year for music!

[jballze]

I miss Everclear.

[Leinieslightman]

I miss good old school everclear.

[KillingJoke696]

Whose the dad to judge anyone? He lives in a trailer park.

[mannydog69]

LOL! agree.

[amalloy81]

im in an interracial relationship and you wouldn't believe how true this video really is except my parents dont have a problem with her i know some of my family might even though they wont/dont say anything

[Babygurl81090]

i'm a black girl...i've been in love in one interracial relationship...i'm just in awe that a band would make a song like this... i love it

[GbrsHalo]

when ya look down and away cuz you dont want to cause a problem. out of place, with no friends? am i close

[ubersweetponage]

One of the best songs ever. It is one of Everclear's deepest songs because it really touches on racism and relationships. It also rock hard and kicks ass!

[TaylorUnknown]

hey you can see arts arms!!!!!!!!!!

its amazing! he must have gotten his tattoos after this song!

love it ..... one of there best!

[xman682]

but is this song supposed to be funny or real? i never really understood that part...

[celticXrain]

real.  I'm pretty sure it was based on a relationship either Art or another band member had.

[GuitarMethod09]

I think it has something to do with craig.

[xman682]

by far my favorite everclear song

[drossland]

this album helped me get through life in a shit hole town in southern saskatchewan.the day that I got my drivers licence,I was packing the moving truck.

[Wangotango78]

Cheezy rock star stare at 00:28.

[wenahaone]

whoa.

[curlballn]

was that a young george bush and condiliza rice...............ahhhh beautiful

[cienbolas]

Every girl is hot, depending on how you look at her. Skin color shouldn't determine if a girl is pretty or not.

By the way, Heartspark Dollarsign is one of the BEST Everclear songs EVER.

And the video is great, too.

[Babygurl81090]

thank you...i definitely agree

[wenahaone]

one of my least favorite songs on sparkle and fade too. Does anyone care???

[wenahaone]

okay black girls aren't that hot. I'm white and I think SE asian, middle eastern, and hispanic girls are prettiest.....Im not being racist.

[phrankyleigh]

Well Thank god your the authority on how every white guy feels. Maybe Everclear wouldn't have made this video had they known how you felt.

If you didn't get it no one cares what your sexual preferences are.

[chook069]

grow up fuckhead

[chook069]

that comment was for wenahaone but it didnt go under his!

ANawesome song lyricly,musicly and all over.

Everclear were on top of the game back then.

They always will be a great band its a shame we dont hear more from them

Peace

[yourmywonderwallxx]

soo hot.

[dudeman8ooo]

he's probably goin bald because in all the new music video's he has hats on

[Doomsday8412]

This is song was with the old everclear, back in the day. In Hater, one of his newer music videos he is hatless and not bald.

[graffnameseed]

so what we got science to fix that problem

[yourmywonderwallxx]

I love Everclear...they absolutely neverr get old.

[KelleyLi]

I remember when this video first came out. I was so in love with it.

[Stanger182]

This is actually alt. rock/punk, not this shit that's on pop/alt radio these days...Long live the post Nirvan and post-Nirvana eras!!!

[BananaMuffin90]

mmmm nirvana =]

neva will 4get them

xxx

RIP kurt =[

[roadtorinpoche]

late at night, the bar is closed, playing cards, drinking tea, smoking cigarettes and listening to everclear. it was good.

[bmo9]

I didn't know daniel negreanu was in everclear!!!!

[rsx01234]

that's a good one.

They were probably in daniel negreanu, too.

[fleshprop9]

I FUCKING love this song!!!

[jstep1973]

Sparkle and Fade.

I listened to that religiously during the mid 90's. Great record.

[charlythebrown]

i hear you ... i think i could sing the entire album !!! ahhhhhhhhh the tenage years !

[derekdiego17]

elpanch0 dude seriously your not funny just leave.

[elpanch0]

=[

you leave. this is my fav bannd

[derekdiego17]

one of the best everclear songs ever. yeah. =)

11/28

[Scottytheboyo]

Could be the most underrated band of the last 10 years. Fuckin' outstanding

[WVUsax27]

always been one of my fav. everclear songs

[thepolacek]

This song kicks ass... this cd was solid

[shirleyshusband2008]

this song rules..well I dedicate it to the lord cause he kicksass. =) and he helps me through lots of shit. =)

[youthBYTES]

you helped yourself, the "lord" took your money

[SelaPee]

I remember I looooooved the fuck outta the video...the couple were so cute.....the song was cool too

[VonRotsky]

spongejustin?....Are you crazy? It's one of the greatest albums I've ever heard. Maybe you had to have a child-hood similar to that to understand it but meh you're opinion

[kirkkobain]

i have a black girlfreind what so wrong about that

[apatheticgeneration]

There's nothing wrong with that. That's the point of the song.

[kirkkobain]

what i said

[spongejustin]

sparkle and fade, masterpiece...everything there after,terrible

[fuckwithfire1984]

"so much for the afterglow" is a fab album!! :D but everything after that.... :/

[spongejustin]

I think the reason they named the album that is because that's the only good song on it. I got it the week it came out, that song rocked my socks, and then the rest of the album was just...geigh. I mean, a person can only listen for so long to Art whining about his childhood

[doom876]

heh, you are a dumbfuck. It's music, his form of expression. He had a shitty childhood, and that is what he writes about. I doubt when he wrote the lyrics he was thinking "hm, maybe I should sing about something vague and boaring like popstars do so everyone will like me".

[elpanch0]

fuck you loser

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­haha

[krapfeaster]

afterglow was decent, sparkle and fade, which is what this song is on, was the best

[awesomefighter2007]

This song is badass I love it..its to bad the only original person left in the band is Art...that sucks.

[Porcelina777]

the other guys are super nice and cool.

[Piritu]

You're possessed with a power bigger than the pain - great lyric!

[steamlocodriver]

And they are not punk, cause punk is rubbish. grunge and metal is real music

[doom876]

Why is punk rubbish? Punk fights the mainstream, it's not technical, it's emotional and in your head.Some people are just to closed minded to appriciate it.

[belltolls1984]

AMEN!!

[doom876]

Evweclear sounds differant, but is one of those great bands like the red hot chili peppers, to listen to while riding with friends just chillen, especially by the beach. Wonderful music

[Rhcpf12]

A fucking amazing song.

And Art looks stunning in this.

[StrangeBrew88]

But it was an alright concert by the way. Art was so cool with the crowd, and he looked goood!

[StrangeBrew88]

One of Everclear's greatest songs I've ever heard. I saw Everclear perform at a military base here in the Pacific. Short concert due to military restrictions, and I was quite disappointed with the replacements for Craig and Greg. Craig takes my breath away in this video. Eeee!!!

[Porcelina777]

Brett is a pretty great drummer.

[whatupmynamesdan]

I havnt heard this song for SEVEN years

[namegoesherex]

i love them. every everclear song has meaning to it.

and god art is so sexy

[loomer23]

It's the perfect pop rock record.Got me into playing electic guitar all them years ago.

[doom876]

They are not pop at all, they are a sort of grunge band.

[mcnphoto]

Best album I own hands down.

[oldrubberlips]

Art is one of rock and rolls all time great song writers. Every damn song on "Sparkle and Fade" is a masterpiece unto itself.

[specialmousenz]

I agree.

[defectedperfectly]

everclear sparkle an fade....was the first cd i ever owned at age 13!!!!it changed me forever!!!!

[IANC4EVER]

wanker

[piercedfromwithin]

some of the best and most meaningful lyrics everclear ever wrote. probably my favorite song by them.

[namegoesherex]

agree

[xxTheCurexx]

I want Art's hatttt

[SkyeSken]

"I'll brake the white trash ties that bind, trade a love so pure for a hate so blind"

My fav line. Such a great song. Everyone should listen this ;)

[skywise333]

Man, I lived in Portland for 4 years and got into a lot of things I probably shouldn't have and it's amazing how every song Everclear writes reflects on something that happened to me up there.

[Joshqu]

i love their new album oh yeah its soo great

[mkwhiten]

Awesome song. I disagree dude. Check out their new album Welcome to The Drama Club - it totally rocks especially Portland Rain.

[Joshqu]

haha u people are obvisously not big fans like me haha.Art's eyes look just like winona rider's here.its crazy.

[poncem4]

sparkle and fade was definitely their best album. none of their new music is close.

[kels112305]

did you guys know that a few of thier videos come from Art's life exsperiences? like this one, father of mine, and wonderful

[craz3ydeath]

Man this band hasn't been the same ever since Art Alexakis left.

[greendayfan]

what are you talking about? Art is the only one of the three left. He reformed the band with four new guys, and they just put out a new album this past year.

[craz3ydeath]

Dude he left the everclear band. Incase you don't know he is the lead singer.

[tyleragnew]

crazy, art is still in the band. dont be insane

[SHUTUProductions]

I read he left. So I dunno. But on a website it said he left. Or it was his drummer. Dunno. Who was it?

[tyleragnew]

no, art is in.

craig and greg left.

now art has 4 30somethings that look like session musicians. its too bad

[craz3ydeath]

craig and greg are still in. I read that scott left.

[fuzzyroes]

Man i used to fucking love this video!! Oh man how i wish it was the 90s again

[rynetry]

Yea, why have I never seen this video before wow... never knew this one had a vid...

[BrunetteGoddess83]

Thanks for posting. I didn't even know this song had a video.

[sutatscom]

Awesome music during the growing up years.
