He's a wannabe and the way the girl acts around him is something that just exists in his mind. Wannabe's were common back in the 90's and actually quite common today too. I also see a lot of reactor's acting tough, when they obviously aren't. You are not that kind of reactor, you're chill and funny, which is why we love your channel.
@@OZYM1 I wasn't aware of that. In Norway we just used to call them wannabe's. I was never one of the cool kids so there's probably a ton of slang I don't know about. Today I'm certainly not up to date on the lingo, and I'm not so sure I've aged that gracefully either. At least I am myself, which is someone training hard to become a grumpy old geezer.
Wanna be was the more general term. We used that also. I grew up in South Central Los Angeles and the other two terms were used more often. I’m sure every area had their own slang, like you said.
In fact 50 Cent even rapped about Ja Rule being a “Wangksta.” They had a dumb feud over a robbery and whether or not 50 hung out with the “alleged” thief after he stole a gold chain from Ja Rule.
@@OZYM1 There's a lot of dumb feuds out there. Maybe after they both got rich they also got bored. I mean there's a lot of stuff going on today that we actually should be mad about. For people in general there's no need to make up quarrels, because there's more important things to care about. Such as unemployment, disease, wars, racism and the destruction of the environment.
The video is a parody of early 90s culture where white dudes wanted to dress talk and style like Black dudes for clout and to look cool. Offspring is such an underrated genius band and the front man Dexter being an actual genius (molecular biology) helps!
It's something that's far more common today than I remember it being when I was in h. school in the 90s. It's really embarassing. At the time, though...white boys were very much not attempting to be black. Or I was out of the loop, probably!
@@jitkasuarez yes they were. Seth Green's character in CANT HARDLY WAIT was a send-up of this very anomaly that was happening. You were definitely outta the loop! Consider yourselves lucky.

Living in the UK we have a lot more Jamaican and Caribbean black people here and the young white guys in those areas often speak with a Jamaican patiois. That's even weirder. You have a lot of black guys here who just speak with a normal English accent and then you got these white guys walking around sounding Jamaican
That's part of the problem with Weird Al: I love his songs but anytime the originals pop on, my mind automatically replaces it with the parody. It happened here as well.
@@greenkorn69 It can be a problem with me because I couldn't just enjoy the song without having to consciously focus on the original because if I just let it go, it would literally be replaced in my head in real time with the parody lyrics. There are times when I want to enjoy the original. If anything, it's a testament to Weird Al that his parodies can supplant the originals as easily as they can.
the singer's wife was a huge vanilla ice fan, so he put that in the lyrics as a praise.. ice later joined the offspring onstage and performed "ice ice baby" with them
Didn't know the origin til i saw some Def Leppard reaction a few days ago. I was chocked, always thought Offspring made or sampled this sound. But Def Leppard must have taken this from somewhere, like a comedy thing or something?
@@DaP84 Def Leopard's Producer Mutt Lang got tired of saying 1,2,3,4 on the retakes . so he made up Gunter gleiben glauchen globen. the band thought it was funny and they left it in "Rock of Ages"
I think the message behind this song is everybody knows hes a wanna be "you know he really doesn't get it anyway" basically saying let him do him and let him thinks hes cool cause it would be mean to crush his spirit when you know he really doesn't get it anyway....especially if hes a nice guy..he just wants to be accepted
The dancing girls are the Pussycat Dolls, back before Nicole Scherzinger, when they were actually only a dance troupe. They also appear in Barenaked Ladies “One Week” video as devil girls. The director of this video also directed “One Week”.
Other popular tracks by them are 'Self Esteem', 'The Kids Aren't Alright', Come Out and Play', Gone Away', You're Gonna Go Far Kid', Why Don't You Get a Job', 'She's Got Issues', 'Hit That', 'Original Prankster' and 'Want you Bad'. Amongst many others.
"Gone Away" was and is a great tune. This song and "Cemetery Gates" by Pantera are very touching. They hit home when you have just lost a close relative, or a friend for that matter...😞
I saw a guy who’s a really good music reactor who had,-rather than do a video reaction-talk about other popular reactors ( he had a literal list) and he mentioned you . He said that you were one of the best-and mentioned your great personality in addition to being one of the best at what you girls and guys do on your shows. I have to agree. I subscribed to your channel first, out of many, many others who I like. Your personality is definitely worth the mention, along with your opinions (I love that you back up a second or so when you need to pause so we don’t miss anything important too! The best way to segue back into the music and keep the flow going) Keep doing what ur doing cus if it ain’t broken, don’t fix it!👏🏻👏🏻
Their song "why don't you get a job?" is also pretty great, the offspring is one of the first bands I remember looking up all their videos on youtube way back in the day 😂🙌✌️
This is from the album Americana. It also has "The Kids Aren't Alright" and "Why Don't You Get a Job" among others. Other great stuff came before and after. Dig a little deeper into this band.
We have all know one of these guys but you couldn't hate them because they tried so hard you did have the heart to laugh at them. I'm 74 so I've seen a whole lot of them! Bless their heart.
@@TheLastGarou unfortunately these idiots are still going strong. They want to be black so bad but all they do is get on everybodys nerves. I hate being around loudmouth wannabes.

This song is a classic. Offspring has a lot of really good songs. Here's a few recommendations for your next smoke session: "Gone Away" "Kristy are you doing okay?" "Fix you" "why don't you get a job?" "The kids aren't alright" "Original prankster" "spare me the details" "you're gonna go far kid"
I think it makes more sense in context to the whole album "Americana"(Five times Platinum record), each song explores a part of American life in a satiric fashion or deadly serious, I'd recommend The Kids Aren't Alright, just don't get too distracted by the video
Thank you for finally reacting to this. I knew you would like it. I've been requesting this one for a long time. Other good songs by The Offspring are "Why Don't You Get a Job", "Self Esteem", "Come Out and Play", "The Kids Aren't Alright"
Yoooo! I bought this album when I was like 9 because I loved this song. My sister gave the lyric book to our baby sitter and she just sat on the couch shaking her head while reading the lyrics to "The Kids Aren't Alright" She took the CD away from me and told my mom.
You're Gonna Go Far Kid, Self-Esteem, Come Out and Play are great. Gone away is powerful and sad AF. And yes, this one was making fun of the wannabe's.
The lead singer Dexter Holland has his PhD in Molecular Biology and is trying to find a cure for cancer. Dude is a genius.

..that sound a lot like this song
the kids aren't alright, best song from them.

Love how it got you from the start lmao i was dying
The Offspring has done nothing but put out Solid hits for their entire career. They’re great!
Hey man! Offspring was funny ass hell! And they knew what they doing!
Another good song of theirs is "Why Don't You Get a Job?" Songs with comedy elements rarely make the radio, so the Offspring is a bit of a novelty.

"Kristy are you doing okay?"
"Fix you"
"why don't you get a job?"
"The kids aren't alright"
"Original prankster"
"spare me the details"
