I told my friend how I couldn't wait to be 18 and he said "Don't. Cherish your youth."
Right after that we listened to this song. He's right, being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up =)

cool video!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This song is a fucking lyrical masterpiece.. I can't listen to this song without thinking of being best friends with people I never see, playing tag in abandoned buildings, running from the cops for breaking into swimming pools, my hometown's ice cream parlor.. So fucking much. The message is beautiful, but sad.

Lol thanks Mr.Jamriska <3

Every time I hear this song, it carries more and more meaning. As an over-stressed senior in high school, this song reminds me that, even when the workload makes me feel hopeless, "The only thing that matters is just following your heart, and eventually you'll finally get it right." This song inspires me to keep chasing my dreams, even when the road to reach them is a rough one.

My teenage years were all about the Ataris... can't believe this album is almost 10 years old... Brings me back to when I was 17 years old, used my dirty old high top Chucks and had so much fun. Good times !!!

Most the memories I have associated with this song are from the summer of 2004, when I was going into my junior year.

omg i can't believe i just find this song i lost 14 years of my life !!!!!
This reminds me of 3rd grade camp and how they used this song for the video to remind us of the trip! I'm in 8th grade now and I went all this time not knowing this songs name or who it was by!!! But every so often it would pop up in my head but the only words I knew "these are the best days of our lives". So glad I've found it!!!

@dawndawn992 Man you're lucky.... I discovered the Ataris in eights grade and I'm almost a junior now. You have so many good days ahead of you. Enjoy them and don't try to grow up too fast. It really is true "being grown up is only half as fun as growing up."

you got the lyrics wrong at the beginning.
"and that unspoken feeling of knowing that right now is all that matters."

I'm sorry but your mistaken, these are the lyrics from the album booklet. Those are some pretty cool lyrics though
