Tonic - Mean To Me

[xMoNsTeRxGuYx]

Tonic should make a comeback

[heki92]

they deserve more viewes, I dont know why are so unrated ?

[bestoff123]

awsome song. Do you guys could make any suggestions of some other bands with such a melodical, alternative rock style?

Thanks

[jpeopolis]

I miss these kinds of bands. Totally stripped down. Dedicated more to their music, than their image. Also, they looked like adults. I'm tired of children topping every freakin' Billboard Chart. -Sincerely, an old hag! lol

[wallyworldfromcanada]

Yeah that was the best movie in a long time. I don;t have that vhs vid., anymore. But that is where I saw this video for the first time. At the very beginning of the movie. Nice times

[devildude10001]

yes i first heard this on american pie

[TitWarlord]

LOL the hairy hand that slaps him

and this is the only song i've heard from them other than "if u could only see"

[spacefreak09]

Amazing Song! Tonic + 90s music=AWESOME!

[Lily2U1515]

why ya gotta take the f word outta the song

[10splitter]

Why they gotta be so mean to their guitars...

[MajorTonkins]

To those that said the video is low-budget-looking, they did smash two guitars and 4 custom mannequins. That's prolly a couple grand right there.

[nana4k7]

this song got some weirdness abt it in a good way 4 sure ... love the into

[mharon79]

i really love this song. If i am in heavy traffic, i feel relief if i listen to this song.

[ariesty100]

I like this song and Like this band..

They're really great

[xCautionx24]

Tonic has always been kind of under rated compared to those other bands. If more people called in and requested tonic then Tonic would be played on the Air more.

[overandbeyond1]

this is one awesome song i love the lyrics

[NancyMinion13]

I hate the video, but you can always close your eyes

[shogunhua]

Yup American pie vhs is where I first saw this video great movie!.

[xMoNsTeRxGuYx]

TONIC ROCKS MY CRAZY WORLD

[jzoom45]

this is a nice song but the video is terrible. it detracts from the quality of the song.

[TheInvaderJon]

I saw these guys and soul asylum yesterday live. I got to meet all the members of both bands (except for tonic's drummer) and they were really really nice guys.

[theroomfromthemoon]

@TheInvaderJon and then you found 5 bucks?



[TheInvaderJon]

@theroomfromthemoon No, I didn't find five bucks. That would've toped the "Best day ever chart" if I did.

[Sneekatoek]

Great band! writing great songs.. it's the only theory I live by.. what else can you do.. you put your faith in your record companies hands.. and hope for the best.. but unfortunately sometimes they will let you down..

[LunaVolo1]

I'm one of those that 1st saw this video at the end of American Pie. It blew me away..

[NovemberRain333]

Yeah! whats going on there debfan?????  such a great band.....shame...and they have so many great songs.... great melody ....

[liquid49286]

Louis CK is a lead singer now!!

[BSOrange9mm]

Terrible video, why is a man's hands grabbing at him. Good song though.

[markcameron88]

@BSOrange9mm the song is about inner turmoil. I'm not going to take the time to explain to you what that is. Just google it.

[missbrowneyedgurl17]

i love it; so much memories of someone... thats what they say why you gotta be so mean to me....

[fox015]

It looks like this film clip cost $5 to make. Lame.

[SavageBezerkEclipse]

@fox015 So what? Music is about Music, not the Video, Listen to the music...

[LSUTigers2321]

And "If you could only see" gets pretty good airplay on the radio

[LSUTigers2321]

It's fun to miss with people who don't know this song

[luwmakeup]

they r so underrated i love listenin to them

[slickvic713]

i just watched gossip after not watching it for 7 years and at the end this song stared and i got so many memories of these times.

[BrittP14]

Radio allows musicians to continue careers or start new ones.  Have some common sense, if it weren't for the radio, the music world wouldn't be the same. I know about listening to new songs online or whatever, but imagine a bands reaction when their first song plays on the radio for the first time. That is what drives new bands... to be heard. Don't be so ignorant to think radio ruins music, for the most part, it creates dreams. So shhh dream killers!!!

[hawttmommie]

Too All of those in my LIFE who keep being MEAN TO ME...LETTING GO....

[hawttmommie]

LUV this Group...Luv This Song!~!

[skinnyjeansAndlynx]

his facial hair looks quite soft :D

[Mimical]

Heard this song at the end of Gossip. Love the song. :D

[jjb2122]

I've always thought this was a severely underrated song.

[IdunCareLesSn00b]

Why are Tonic the best band?Because they make great music and dont disable embedding so everyone can enjoy their great tunes across the web.

[MrBwchunter]

media rejects real feelings.

[blakelyh19]

lol the drummer looks like dale earnhardt jr in the vid. Love tonic's old stuff. Their new stuff is totally different. 

[jrstattooedgurl]

THEY ROCK

[rizzlelizzle89]

i agree with that last comments.. REALLLY brings back the college days... For me

[kandigrrl25]

why ya gotta be so fucking mean to me

one of the best lyrics ever. simple yet effective.

[bama12andzero]

well said guys, the 90s was the best.......

[hispaniola53]

i love it!!!~

[dgiovanni25]

different drummer look at the other videos....

[Dustinsangel01]

i love this song cause it makes me think of how ppl r so mean to me:(

[SavageBezerkEclipse]

@Dustinsangel01 ~~hugs and gives brownies~~

[GM0530]

Tonic is one of my all time favorite bands.

[GRAYINJAPAN]

Vevo is trash 

[eventheblackonesdo]

I don't like the singer's face, but I like the chorus part of this song.

[pvtsnowball201]

Im 15 I like modern and classic rock they need to put this on the air

[sputnick82]

WE WANT MORE TONIC!!!! YOU GUyS ARE AWSOME!

[Spong399]

@sputnick82 They just came out with a new album called Tonic about a month ago. :)

[MsBLINK182LOVER]

@Spong399 Is it any good?

[Spong399]

@MsBLINK182LOVER I think it's pretty good, but it's one of those albums that you have to listen to a few times. The songs really grow on you.

[sputnick82]

@Spong399 thanks :D i'll check it out!

[jOneCrow]

They are far better than the Goo Dolls! Irks me too sweetie!

[racerx300zx]

They are supposed to be releasing a new album next month though, so cheers for some of the 90's coming back. Just hope it's better than some of the retooling other 90's artists have done.

[mlekooo44]

Why you gotta be so mean to meeeeeeee ?

[Daizie332]

I just saw Tonic last week and they are still amazing. They played a new song called - Release Me. They still got it.

[meplusremz]

dudes.. sorry for this stupid question.. i know is noobish :D.. but i need to know

Tonic = Emerson harts? i mean , Tonic is emerson hart's band?

[debfan74]

This really irks me!! Why does the radio neglect Tonic????? They are just as good as Goo Goo Dolls/Green Day/Three Doors Down/Matchbox Twenty ( or When Rob is solo ).......They are so under rated!! Shame on radio for over looking this talented band...also I feel that way with Vertical Horizon.....they too are so forgotten like Tonic! Two bands, great music, would love to see the two of them tour together!! One heck of a show...I could see it!

[lakersfan4everrr]

@debfan74 woh wait a minute i respect TONIC but Green Day is not underated. Biatch

[debfan74]

@lakersfan4everrr never said that Green Day was under rated....I was saying that Tonic is just as good as the groups I mentioned

[Spong399]

@debfan74 Yeah I know, Tonic and Vertical Horizon are both my two favorite bands. I hope Tonic's upcoming album really boosts them up though; They deserve it. With such musical talent, I often wonder why Tonic isn't as high up on the charts right beside The Goo Goo Dolls or Three Doors Down. I'd sell my kidney to see the two of them tour together.

[TheGreekTVSubs]

@debfan74 Maybe it's better that way... it gives them more 'personality' as a band..

[ashieboy1995]

@debfan74 I couldn't agree more. I listen to Tonic and Vertical Horizon too! Awesome bands :))

Another good one is Vaeda. I dunno how many albums they have though haha.

[enzytebob]

@debfan74 Ya got THAT right brutha!

[tatsudoshi65]

@debfan74 Yeah every once-in-a-while I'll hear 'If You Could Only See'... but that's it.

[iliimaster]

@debfan74

i agree they are a great band but nowhere near matchbox 20 or rob thomas who consistantly put out hit after hit...i lost track of this band back in HS no new single on the radio or anything... but dont get me wrong i know every lyric in lemon parade and others this band is one of my favorites

[samantha041508]

@debfan74 I agree tonic is one of the greatest bands ever ....

[blueclipsed]

@debfan74 IS MORE COMPLICATED THAN THAT, MAYBE THE DISCOGRAPHY COMPANIE DON´T WANT TO INVEST MONEY IN THEM. AND THAT´S WHY YOU CAN´T LISTEN TONIC IN THE RADIO.

[aaronwestlakemusic]

@debfan74 it's the lead singers face.. only reason

[chrislgrooms]

@debfan74 Who the F listens to the radio anymore? :P

[Tweeedsss]

@chrislgrooms people who drive....

[Tweeedsss]

@chrislgrooms people who drive...

[shiznitshnitzel4]

@debfan74 why do u care about what the radio plays so much? the best music NEVER gets radio play.

[hmdejoy]

@shiznitshnitzel4 THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYIN!

[hmdejoy]

@debfan74 F the radio. I don't wanna hear them on the radio. They are better than that!

[KellieCrosby]

@debfan74 They used to be on the radio constantly!! You know what happens? Radio ruins EVERYTHING. Be happy they're not on the diseased radio. Let them be free in our ears through headphones or speakers instead of in everyone's ear who doesn't give a shit about anything but Lady Gag-Gag.

[eggrack]

@debfan74

i feel the same way about the toadies. they rocked back then, and even today. But i never hear them on the radio.

[05greenapple]

@debfan74 im with you!!!!. . .fuck boy bands and bruno mars!!!

[thomyorkeswonkyeye]

@debfan74 Couldn't have said it better. I LOOOOVE Vertical Horizon. And Tonic. But I've completely given up on the radio. >.<

[babykatty]

@debfan74 I've learned that when it comes to the radio, I'll listen once in a while but for the most part I go on Youtube, and just search that way. You end up finding A LOT of bands that you would have never heard because their never on the radio

[divellittuz]

@debfan74 yeah right man!!

[icarus550]

@debbie, I'm sorry to hear that but I'm glad the song had a positive impact on you. I had a similar connection to the song, only not as extreme as your situation.

Great song, terrible video. Thanks for the upload, nice quality.

[debbiekification]

Thanks for replying. I still love the song & the band. I think they're the greatest! I was attracted to this one in particular because that's what I always used to say to my late husband: "Why you gotta be so mean to me!" It's funny when I think about it now, hearing the song. Again, thanks for answering. Hope you're having a great day?

[debbiekification]

This song hits home for me. My late husband was an alcoholic & he was terrible with me, put me down, blamed me for things that weren't my fault, called me names & everything I did he considered "stupid". Hearing this song reminded me of those painful days before the booze killed him! I love this song because I couldn't have said it better myself, speaking from my own personal experience. I love this band!

[Dogote82]

according to mtv2, when this song first came out, the lead singer was having writers block... and so he said to God "why you gotta be so mean to me"... and poof... he had the lyrics lol

[jrd1011]

this is one of their better songs, sucks it didn't get more play

[dapoet2000]

great song!

[TheLacylady]

I agree such a cool song, I miss the 90's :(

[dassler42]

Me too;)

[CommodoreWog]

@TheLacylady , yes it seems like songs these days have no feeling or depth, there just there for the sake of being there. Its sutch a shame society today is getting worse and worse. God Bless.

[OriginalMusicClub]

awesome song

6** stars ^^
