While I do agree lets not act like things have not got a bit out of hand with uhhh the whole acceptance movement. Some people cannot be satisfied with equal they want more and we are at that point now.
Yes! but now the tides have turned and this could almost be seen as a right wing song, if it weren’t for the video. Listen to the lyrics again from another perspective.
No subtlety at all... somehow sounds unbelievably generic, while still being awkward and stilted... I'm upset that I even listened to this song for 30 seconds.
The chorus for this song is 1 of my most essential mottos for life, I live it in whatever ways make me happy and I don't feel the need to justify why I live the way I do
I love Sick Puppies. Emma's gorgeous, and talented on the bass... Shim's a great writer, and vocalist, who actually puts thought into their songs, and so many people can relate to them. Gottaloveit.
Don't know "how" or "why" this song came to mind right now (haven't heard it years + haven't listened to music in days), but I couldn't think of what the song was... other than these exact few words I tried to google: "live my life the water is fine" and this "song name + band" actually came up as a suggested search by the grace of George.
I love the symbolism of this song. This song makes me want to go out to all the people who have tossed me aside, knocked me down, or brought me down emotionally and tell them that you can say what you want to me, I'm glad I'm me because I'm not the one drowning in the riptide that they have created around themselves. I'm happy with my life because I don't have to lie, cheat, or fake my way into anything.
This was hot on the radio my senior year of high school...Unfortunately the station that played that stuff got shut down soon after..This sing was just good back the ..totally different meaning now...But I’m sure when it came out it was hitting the 28 year olds then hard
@@ruttlicker1139 yes especially in high school as a senior! now im graduated. I wish listened more. to that lady who told me in 8th to enjoy while we were young. well I like to thinkI did?A DID I? I WANT TO GO BACK!!
This 3 man band is one of the biggest inspirations I have ever seen. Shim's so damn talented. The drums are always so amazing, and my celebrity crush there on the bass brings the house down!
still rocking this in 2022. I remember the first time I met them when they were leaving the bank of america pavillion in maine. super chill people wish i still had the autograph from that day..
I think I’m doing just fine and I won’t justify the way I live my life because , I like where I’m going I’m not wasting my time and remember when it was easy and won’t justify the way I live my life because I I like the direction it’s going Amen
Emma Anzai is a criminally underrated bassist. She mixes slap and picking and at least at the time it was pretty rare to see someone combine both techniques.
You are very right! People deserve to have the right to live their life the way they want to without being judged by others... We all have our own problems to focus on and we need to fix ours before we decide to try and fix someone else.
I wish some people don’t get older and stay the same forever. Great voice great songs. I wonder how it makes feel, getting old with great songs made and left behind.
I will never forget seeing this band Idaho falls idaho. They opened up for skillet. Them and devour the day they both turned to be insanely amazing. :D
It's so simple to not deal with people and their biases When they never even think about why they think what they think The things they truly believe but never seem to analyze
Holy shit, how the hell I'm I juuuust hearing this song until now and I freaking love Sick Puppies... DEFINITELY aged well this song, these guys psychic??? Absolutely relevant now with all the bullshit going on. I'm definitely remembering and missing when it wasn't soo damn hard...
I mean anyone with half a brain could have predicted that we wouldn’t have universal healthcare, pharmaceutical companies are ever powerful, the war machine rages on, etc
@@Rskillswitch I listened to these guys when I was in 2nd grade. I'm 15 now and while my music taste has definitely expanded (i find it funny on how yesterday i was listening to mandatory suicide by slayer and right after that its hashpipe by weezer) I wanted to see what they were doing now.
This band is crazy underrated.
Too bad theyre pretty much dead noe
Frequently Asked Questions I agree with you
compared to what? :D
they're my fav and in my top 2 of best bands of all time :)
Yes
So many years later... Lyrics still stand strong and true.
even more so now this is a great piece to come back to
Agreed.
Stronger than ever, i dare to say
While I do agree lets not act like things have not got a bit out of hand with uhhh the whole acceptance movement. Some people cannot be satisfied with equal they want more and we are at that point now.
@@cmo5807 they want to be so equal that they think they are above equal.
Now this song was way ahead of its time back then. It's all right in front of our noses now.
This song is more relevant today then ever before...
Yeah i havnt heard this in years. Listened this morning and im like "wait a second..." lol
True
Facts
Covid baaaa baaa sheep everywhere 😢
lol. Because of the not getting vaxxed lyric? They said that as an attack on health insurance, not personal health. Context.
I miss them. They need to play together again
12+ years and this song still has meaning!!!!!
I guess you don't listen to old rock?
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This song has aged VERY WELL!...
theres dreadful stuff that they show in that video
Saw them in July... 🔥
Prudent at this juncture... ;)
No it didn’t
@@louieduke5894 like a fine wine.
Still rocking it in 2024. Hands up if you're rocking to this song!
I'm with ya brother
Yes! but now the tides have turned and this could almost be seen as a right wing song, if it weren’t for the video. Listen to the lyrics again from another perspective.
🤘
Been trying to find this song for a long time just happen to run into it again
👊🏼👊🏼🎸🎸
This song is so good..his voice is made for rock
This song hits hard now huh!
Damn straight, it does!
Oh man... the first 30 seconds of this song are so intense. Love the way the first verse sounds and is carried out
It’s like a time machine but means something completely different today! Ages like fine wine

Tri-Polar is just an amazing album, every single track.
Don't know "how" or "why" this song came to mind right now (haven't heard it years + haven't listened to music in days), but I couldn't think of what the song was... other than these exact few words I tried to google: "live my life the water is fine" and this "song name + band" actually came up as a suggested search by the grace of George.
Not a robot, I promise. I Like Google, but my #1 complaint is "UA-cam Music" (and getting rid of "Google Music").
I love the symbolism of this song. This song makes me want to go out to all the people who have tossed me aside, knocked me down, or brought me down emotionally and tell them that you can say what you want to me, I'm glad I'm me because I'm not the one drowning in the riptide that they have created around themselves.

Underrated comment😭
Those lyrics are deep as fuck. I love this band
+TREVEL MATE True, but as of last Friday they still put on a tremendous live show.
You all hate your children they’re too fat to feed. Deep af
@@coffee593 cringe but yes
@@reallunacy nah not close to shims
@@trevelmate9689 yes they suck for kikcing singer
This singer is incredible.
For a name like Sick Puppies, they have a beautiful sound and a wonderful message. Love it.
tri polar is still hands down my favorite album, got me through a tough time in high school.
This song never get's old. ❤
i swear the bassist is so breathtaking
This song fits perfectly with the world today.
Even now!

And 10 years from now. Unfortunately.
This song becomes more relevant every year
Facts we still don’t have universal healthcare
@@MrFuzziiWuzzii Good.
@@dvda9725 troll.
Music is about meaning. Thank you to great bands like the Sick Puppies to add meaning to their songs! (:
I love bands that aren't afraid to let their bassist be heard
#Justiceforbass!
@@jackbow8247lol word
Did someone say bassist😍
She deserves to be heard on every track she plays on
I love this band sick puppys all the way 😅😅😅😅
One of my favorite songs by Sick Puppies!!!!

LOL nobody cares clown boy
❤❤❤❤❤
Esta muy perfecto. Y frutas lole. N camuy.........y pr 4 life
“I won’t justify the way I live my life” might be one of the most profound statements I’ve ever heard.
Pretty fricking cool that a 3 piece band sounds like a 5 piece group.
I think I’m doing just fine and I won’t justify the way I live my life because , I like where I’m going I’m not wasting my time and remember when it was easy and won’t justify the way I live my life because I I like the direction it’s going Amen
A joyful load of power for open minded people - let' s stay together in our riptide. And thanks a lot 4 creating this powerboosting song ❤
I love this song. It´s on repeat. Love the singer`s voice.
Damn time flies. Still a great tune all these years later.
First time I heard them I was like 13 years old, they are still awesome 10 years later.
Great song!
I was in high school. I'm now so old, but this song still kicks butt.
PS psyatic nerve pain sucks.
sick puppies: the only band where everyone wants to sleep with the bass player
Clearly you've never heard of Coal Chamber
Cody Laul XD
What about spiderbait
Sonic Syndicate
Uh yeah
Most excellent song.
0:33 that bass.
0:56 Emma's smile is so cute
Omg!! This is so interesting watching this now. They were way ahead of the times
Damn right!
I figured this was brand new. This is how I feel about this country right now.
yeah who! the worst I feel. bad lefts.
Who knew it would mean alot in 2021
Old singer better than new singer.
People need to hear to this song now more than ever
@Berzerker God did you comprehend the lyrics?
Shit still rides in 2021🔥🔥🔥
Emma Anzai is a criminally underrated bassist. She mixes slap and picking and at least at the time it was pretty rare to see someone combine both techniques.
This songs so dope, I forgot about it till now....definitely going on my playlist, thanks 🤗
This song and video hits so hard in 2021!
Someone, please bring this kind of music back.
This song is relevant in 2021
THERE IS STILL HOPE... Especially with such an amazing band on this planet.
Yo the fact that this COMMENT was 8 years ago makes me feel so damn old, not even 20 yet homeslice
You are very right! People deserve to have the right to live their life the way they want to without being judged by others... We all have our own problems to focus on and we need to fix ours before we decide to try and fix someone else.
tri-polar is one of the best albums of recent years
The Sick Puppies always have a meaning in their music.
this song has aged so well same problems different year
Pure.
One of the Most Well Crafted Basslines.
One very well crafted bassist 🤪
"I remember when it used to be easy, I remember when it wasn't so hard" Damn right. Who doesn't?
I wish some people don’t get older and stay the same forever. Great voice great songs. I wonder how it makes feel, getting old with great songs made and left behind.
I will never forget seeing this band Idaho falls idaho. They opened up for skillet. Them and devour the day they both turned to be insanely amazing. :D
I saw them with Skillet and devour the day too I think in 2016.
Songs still relevant today
It's so simple to not deal with people and their biases
When they never even think about why they think what they think
The things they truly believe but never seem to analyze
"Trying to throw me a line, when you're the one drowning"
Some are so depressed and think you are the one in trouble
??????????????????????????
Don't worry about it
I've been leaving things around for later @@Illumirage
It's May 2023, who's out there still listening to this gem? 🎉🎉🎉
43 and still listening
i met them years ago good people
Doesn't matter what the bassist looks like, she's got skills, and great taste in gear.
The song riptide got me through some tough times ;-)
love this song, and this bassist is so beautiful. 1:30 - 1:32 i remember that, was so exciting. Everybody watched this. I'll never forget. 🙏🙏
I like sick Puppies they need to put a new album out
Honestly she doesn't have to be naked, she's fine as she is. Everyone in this band has incredible talent, period.
Agreed. Don’t dwell on woman my friend. Dwell on holiness.
We need you more than we every had before @sick puppies
My favorite sick puppies song
My uncle played this song 4 times in a row in his truck while going fishing
Nice
STILL LOVE THIS
I love this song❤️
Still so damn relevant!!!
Why is the perfect anthem for 2021?
Only for like a 2/5ths of the country haha
Based on this video, we thought the world had real problems 10 years ago, boy oh boy were we wrong.
We're living in that dystopian future everyone was so scared of....
Hate to say it, but you’re not wrong
I saw them live a few months ago and they were so good!
Holy shit, how the hell I'm I juuuust hearing this song until now and I freaking love Sick Puppies...
DEFINITELY aged well this song, these guys psychic??? Absolutely relevant now with all the bullshit going on. I'm definitely remembering and missing when it wasn't soo damn hard...
I mean anyone with half a brain could have predicted that we wouldn’t have universal healthcare, pharmaceutical companies are ever powerful, the war machine rages on, etc
90's music is the best!!
Agreed, but this isn't 90s.
?
not 90s lol
2001 meh still written in the 90's tho?
+Daric Seidel 2011, not 2001
I love sick puppies cx amazing band
good song!!!! gave me chills
they're music will never go away.
*Their
This song only got more relevant as the time passed
whos still listening im 25 and listening
33 here
I listened to this song on a 1st gen iPod in a fighting position in an East Africa. This song brings me back.
What were you gents doing there?
This song literally defines me as a person. I love it!
So your a antifa member who lives in moms house. Who isnt vaccinated, says horrable things about your kids? That's what the song is about
@UltArcRanger LGBTQ anthem lol okay bro.
2023 still listing to these songs
It's amazing how much better music is when you make the bass guitar able to be heard clearly...
I love him👏👏💙
...I like where I'm at, on my back, floating down in my own riptide... The water is fine!
Glad they played this in St. Louis got to see em live it was well worth the wait
Here during Quarantine anyone ??
whos that sexy brunette, shes so hot
Yessss
Yes
Yep
Krypton she’s part of the band
Sick puppies made wrong move dropping the lead singer
They didn't drop Shimon, he wanted to dissolve the band and Mark and Emma said no. So they parted ways.
Wait what? :( I have been gone for a while (too many years to count.)
@@skeletonkiss1112 me too don't know shit, been listening to them since 2006, idk about any recent drama
@@Rskillswitch I listened to these guys when I was in 2nd grade. I'm 15 now and while my music taste has definitely expanded (i find it funny on how yesterday i was listening to mandatory suicide by slayer and right after that its hashpipe by weezer) I wanted to see what they were doing now.
Truuuuuuu
Heard this band for the first time tonight popped up on my Spotify now I’m hooked and can’t stop listening too them
