its funny im 51 now always grew up on rock metal alternative etc...i like what they combind musically they are a great band i feel sorry for someone that dose not find them
Im turning 34 in two months and I swear to god this song is exactly how it feels to be in your 30s. I still mentally feel like a angsty teenager ... I dont know where the hell my twenties went so gd fast and sometimes the weight of being an adult is so fucking heavy and overwhelming.
This song is so necessary, a lot of guys are lost in their late twenties and mid thirties looking for rebellion and basically nobody or nothing in society realizes this. Hope you go wild with the next record!
@@derPetunientopf Some of their other stuff is rather reminiscent of 2000's emo pop/punk/rock. This one is definitely more standard affair with slightly above average self aware lyrics.
@@derPetunientopf don't think they are talking about the genre, but rather the vocalists attitude in general. Being emo, not making music that falls under the emo genre.
@@derPetunientopf that's absolutely what you mean. Josh Katz is a super emo person, not in a bad way. Though this song is super depressing to hear as a younger person who's unhappy with life, because the message is basically "they lied when they said it'd get better"
I read this and I was like "30 isn't a midlife crisis" but then I remembered that quote where it's like "since there's no way of telling when the middle of my life is I've decided to have an ongoing crisis" and it's like, yeah, that's the vibe of this.
lHiTMANll a lot of People die in their 20s. Mid life is an old PC term for people in there late 40s to 60. I’d go with existential crisis. But it doesn’t matter. We all could die at anytime. I’m babbling. Fuck it
I remember when I was 16 I thought the idea of being 20 sounded really old. Now with the perspective that comes with the passage of time, I know that even at 30 someone is still just a kid.
Age is such a weird thing! You're always the oldest you've ever been and the youngest you'll ever be again and it's just generally overwhelming. . I'm 23 and I know I still feel so old sometimes, especially when I'm around my younger friends and cousins.... But then there was that line at 3:53 about pretending to be 23 and I felt called out, haha, like I'm the younger age he wishes he was. It's weird, because I know I'm 'young', but I'll be turning 24 next month and my gosh that just sounds so _old_ to me, like I still don't even know how to be like, an adult person? . tl;dr Age is strange and terrifying, I guess.
@@ladyalfhildrforestofvioletmist we're the same age and feel the same thing. I felt called out in All Time Low's song Getaway Green where Alex sings "reminiscing over 23". Are we young or are we old?
@@08viperstrike my body is 31 (32 soon..) but my mind is still like 16 haha :P biological age really doesn't matter at all. it is all about how you feel about yourself :D
I'm 37 and look back on my 20's and think about some of the things I did then as an "adult" that I would never do now. I remember the overwhelming thoughts of being on my own and being responsible for myself that have long since faded, only to be replaced with the thoughts that I am now the old person I thought my parent's were when I was 16. I don't feel old mentally, I still like lots of the new trends and styles and feel like I can get away with liking them, but physically I have come to the point that I groan when rolling out of bed in the morning lol
The cop videotaping another cop smacking someone’s ass at 1:15... the “Badflower is over party” sign... the blue and red powder symbolizing democrats and republicans fighting... the way the clock only changes by 1 min when Josh gets out of bed..... THERE ARE SO MANY HIDDEN GEMS
I just realized the last line is "i'm alright, but I hate that song" I'm guessing he's referring to the Happy Birthday song. Why didn't I catch that the first 30 times listening to this song?
I didn't catch it until you pointed it out. Puts context to the whole video. The video is an internal emotional breakdown brought on by how angry his birthday celebration made him. I just thought the video was an art piece to express how he feels but it's more than that: it's him having an emotional breakdown at the dining room table because his birthday pisses him off. Everything in the video is happening in his head while he has a panic attack and dissociates from the birthday dinner, to put it differently
Just saw them play a super small and not advertised show in Boise, ID. One of the best live bands out there today. Going to Aftershock and already know I've been to the best show of the year.
I pretty much lost my 20s to just depression, anxiety, agoraphobia. Remembering it is like an out of body experience watching what was supposed to be my best years go from pushing limits to self destruction. 37 now and it still feels like I'm trying to navigate my way being tied up, blindfolded, out of a paper bag, in a cardboard box, in a dumpster fire, that's been pushed down a hill. That's on a good day when you've been taking your meds correctly. :P This song definitely describes the "how did I get here?" part when you reach it. Sent it to my friend before she reached 30 and gave her a warning about the letter the government sends women on their 30th birthday to start getting a yearly pap smear. O_< Happy 30th get that Vajayjay checked!
It's weird because when you're a kid, 30 sounds old and you're officially an "adult". I'm 32 and minus the responsibilities that come with adulthood, I still feel like I'm 20 and my sense of humor still hasn't changed since I turned 16.
30 is actually ur prime years as a male. Plus ur brain is almost completely developed. It just sucks cuz u still feel young but understand the world and the people in it. But people really r selfish. Especially now a days.
I love that he chose not to rhyme in the "you know my only hope is for a better life" and the music dropped out, and then the outro we did not expect 😍They totally get dynamics and kick ass!
Badflower is the most Millinal Rock band iv heard in what feels like forever I'm 26 and never related to a song so much...I need to listen to more Millinal Rock and metal...
Good to know Im not the only one experiencing a healthy dose of self loathing, increased social nihilism and a crippling tik tok addiction during quarantine
I had my mid life crisis at 30 ... now I'm turning 32 and still feeling it. love the song !!! "I MISS WHEN EVERYTHING WAS SIMPLE .. THIS IS 30" my first introduction to Badflower and I love it.
My mom's birthday is today and at almost 50, she's killing it- She was lost and overworked in her 30's but almost completely reinvented herself and is living her best life inside and out. You got it!
evolve? This is more a throwback so not really an evolution. Rock never died it just became less popular. As long as us fans keep the wheels turning it can never die.
Bad flowers probably one must prominent and amazing bands out there. All their songs hit home. They're not all about the media craze. They speak the truth and they show true emotion they show what music is really about. Absolute respect for such a brilliant band.
I turned 29 in March. Spent 7 years drinking and hiding from my trauma and issues that I didn’t want to face. I’m 1 year, 7 months sober now and I feel like I’m finally growing past my arrested development, negativity, all of that, and my mind is expanding rapidly, realized a LOT about life in the past couple months in particular, and shit is coming so fast. I heard this song on my local radio station and immediately liked the sound, and immediately connected to some of the lyrics. I asked Siri who it was, screenshotted it, listened to it, and realized I connect with ALL of the lyrics. THEN I listened to Family. And, bro. I just. Thank you Josh, and Badflower, for being here during this period of my life. I discovered you guys at exactly the right time and it blows my mind.
@@WinedandDined27 Comedy is tragedy plus time, it's funny that it's a song that critiques the pains of turning 30 would come out when many kids like myself and others are basically about to or just turned 30, it's almost ironic
@@oakforestboys that's one definition of it, but that doesn't make much sense. What's tragic about a knock-knock joke? Or a Family Guy bit? or, like 90% of stand up comedy? Good ol' FN said comedy is subversion, so comedy being tragedy plus time is wildly subjective (and not even true if you think about it, but again, subjective.) I still don't see how it's funny. was it funny that when blink 182 came out with what's my age again when kids born in the mid-70s were about to turn 23? to me, you could say that about anything. when "fuck the police" came out, was it funny bc there were ppl who also hated the police at that time? and again, how is it ironic? "irony" is when something you wouldn't expect to happen, happens. again, similar to subversion. did you *not* expect anyone to come out with a song about turning 30 in the year 2020? what is ironic about it? i just think you are misusing words, and are obviously misunderstanding their definitions. when Taylor Swift came out with the song 22 when i was 22, along with so many other ppl, it wasn't funny. i don't get the inclusion of the 90s kids' thing either, other than the fact that they are about to turn 30, why is it funny? did nobody expect them to ever turn 30? I'm just missing the humour here entirely.
I think you misunderstood what I meant and over analysed it to death tbh Could have done without the lecture In a music video as well, god I bet you're fun at parties
@@oakforestboys it doesnt seem like i misunderstood anything, i asked u to elaborate in case i had misunderstood and you doubled down on yr sentiment that didn't make any sense. it's so interesting how difficult it is for ppl to admit they're wrong or don't know something. you misused words, didn't know their definitions and made a statement that grammatically made no sense, that's all. you could simply edit it if you wanted in order to make it make sense. I'm not being rude, just helping you is all. better to misuse words anonymously online and have a stranger correct you and learn now than to make a fool of yourself in front of ppl whom you actually care about or want to impress. (word to the wise, for the small % of the population who does know the actual meaning of the word 'ironic' it drives the majority of them crazy on the inside when like 80% of ppl constantly misuse it. instances like these are super easy ways to humble yrself and learn something to avoid being thought of unflatteringly sometime down the line.) it's hard to convey intonation via typing but i was being genuine, not a dink. didn't have to become a lecture if you just admitted you didn't know what the words you were using meant. there is a world where you respond to my initial comment somewhere along the lines of "oh shit haha you're right, my bad." and we clink our virtual beers with a smile and a wink. and fwiw, I'm probably not that fun at parties anymore, I'm 30 haha.
I love this band. We had gone down last minute to see Shine Down at 5 points amphitheatre in Irvine and were running late. I'll never forget wandering into the outdoor arena and seeing Josh wrapped around his Mic stand screaming out his pain. I was immediately hooked and having never heard of them before began scrambling to find out who these guys were. The more I discovered the deeper the addiction to their music became. Then we saw them play the El Rey in downtown L A in one of the best shows I've ever seen! I've been going to rock shows in Los Angelas since 1978 so I've seen alot of bands and one thing the great's have in common is that they play it like they mean it. Badflower has a real touch of genius. I really hope they can continue to create and survive this Covid shutdown. We had tickets to see them this year and of course the show was cancelled. We will be the first in line to get tickets as soon as we can all get back to live shows. Please keep releasing new music like this. We need you.
Allison, great comment. I'm also hooked. Badflower is definitely in it's on category of music. It's like a million ants (bands) all together trying to get to the top of the hill (success) and Badflower decided to veer off the group trail and blaze their own path to the top . . . .and they are succeeding! If they continue, they could be at the top along side some of the great legends.
This song is so good. The message and emotions that are portrayed in this song describe the feelings and thoughts a lot of young adults are dealing with now. It needs more recognition.
This video does a great job of showing what it like to live in 2020 as well as grow up in America. I love the single shot look of the video, and the ending is perfect.
Most of the popular artist are in their late 20's or older, so these kids are listening to people like the baby, lil baby, cardi b, etc.... so shit we can still have a good time.
About to turn 32. Turning 30 is weird. You feel like you have to be an "adult" and then feel inside you wanna put an emoji mask and party with your friends
Why does it seem like every time they put out a new song, they just keep getting better.. I've seen this video over 100 times and it never gets old! ❤️
I doubt I can describe how happy I am that you are releasing another song. I have a feeling this will be another song I’ll relate to since I’ll be 30 in less than a year. Thank you for being yourselves and thank you for creating Everything you have.

I turned 29 in March. Spent 7 years drinking and hiding from my trauma and issues that I didn’t want to face. I’m 1 year, 7 months sober now and I feel like I’m finally growing past my arrested development, negativity, all of that, and my mind is expanding rapidly, realized a LOT about life in the past couple months in particular, and shit is coming so fast.
I heard this song on my local radio station and immediately liked the sound, and immediately connected to some of the lyrics. I asked Siri who it was, screenshotted it, listened to it, and realized I connect with ALL of the lyrics.
THEN I listened to Family. And, bro. I just.
Thank you Josh, and Badflower, for being here during this period of my life. I discovered you guys at exactly the right time and it blows my mind.
This is incredible...only 3 songs in and im convinced they're in my top 5 favorite bands.
2:39 the crowd said: social distancing
You guys have zero songs that I dont like, love them All.
Josh said that if I comment “here before 1 million” I’d look cool, so here we are
I can't stop listening to this, it's so good
Funny this song comes out right as 90's kids are on the cusp of turning 30
some of us are, but why is that funny? that's just math. i am not seeing the punchline
@@WinedandDined27 Comedy is tragedy plus time, it's funny that it's a song that critiques the pains of turning 30 would come out when many kids like myself and others are basically about to or just turned 30, it's almost ironic
@@oakforestboys that's one definition of it, but that doesn't make much sense. What's tragic about a knock-knock joke? Or a Family Guy bit? or, like 90% of stand up comedy? Good ol' FN said comedy is subversion, so comedy being tragedy plus time is wildly subjective (and not even true if you think about it, but again, subjective.) I still don't see how it's funny. was it funny that when blink 182 came out with what's my age again when kids born in the mid-70s were about to turn 23? to me, you could say that about anything. when "fuck the police" came out, was it funny bc there were ppl who also hated the police at that time?
and again, how is it ironic? "irony" is when something you wouldn't expect to happen, happens. again, similar to subversion. did you *not* expect anyone to come out with a song about turning 30 in the year 2020? what is ironic about it? i just think you are misusing words, and are obviously misunderstanding their definitions. when Taylor Swift came out with the song 22 when i was 22, along with so many other ppl, it wasn't funny.
i don't get the inclusion of the 90s kids' thing either, other than the fact that they are about to turn 30, why is it funny? did nobody expect them to ever turn 30? I'm just missing the humour here entirely.
I think you misunderstood what I meant and over analysed it to death tbh
Could have done without the lecture In a music video as well, god I bet you're fun at parties
@@oakforestboys it doesnt seem like i misunderstood anything, i asked u to elaborate in case i had misunderstood and you doubled down on yr sentiment that didn't make any sense. it's so interesting how difficult it is for ppl to admit they're wrong or don't know something. you misused words, didn't know their definitions and made a statement that grammatically made no sense, that's all. you could simply edit it if you wanted in order to make it make sense. I'm not being rude, just helping you is all. better to misuse words anonymously online and have a stranger correct you and learn now than to make a fool of yourself in front of ppl whom you actually care about or want to impress. (word to the wise, for the small % of the population who does know the actual meaning of the word 'ironic' it drives the majority of them crazy on the inside when like 80% of ppl constantly misuse it. instances like these are super easy ways to humble yrself and learn something to avoid being thought of unflatteringly sometime down the line.)
it's hard to convey intonation via typing but i was being genuine, not a dink. didn't have to become a lecture if you just admitted you didn't know what the words you were using meant. there is a world where you respond to my initial comment somewhere along the lines of "oh shit haha you're right, my bad." and we clink our virtual beers with a smile and a wink. and fwiw, I'm probably not that fun at parties anymore, I'm 30 haha.
This song is gonna be on repeat this whole quarantine until more badflower comes out.. sorry neighbors :)
My name is Josh and I just turned 30 4 days ago...thanks algorithm.
Lol
Finally 30 it felt exactly how I thought it would.
This song is still good tho.
I'm rocking out to it
I love this band. We had gone down last minute to see Shine Down at 5 points amphitheatre in Irvine and were running late. I'll never forget wandering into the outdoor arena and seeing Josh wrapped around his Mic stand screaming out his pain. I was immediately hooked and having never heard of them before began scrambling to find out who these guys were.
The more I discovered the deeper the addiction to their music became. Then we saw them play the El Rey in downtown L A in one of the best shows I've ever seen! I've been going to rock shows in Los Angelas since 1978 so I've seen alot of bands and one thing the great's have in common is that they play it like they mean it. Badflower has a real touch of genius. I really hope they can continue to create and survive this Covid shutdown. We had tickets to see them this year and of course the show was cancelled. We will be the first in line to get tickets as soon as we can all get back to live shows. Please keep releasing new music like this. We need you.
Allison, great comment. I'm also hooked. Badflower is definitely in it's on category of music. It's like a million ants (bands) all together trying to get to the top of the hill (success) and Badflower decided to veer off the group trail and blaze their own path to the top . . . .and they are succeeding! If they continue, they could be at the top along side some of the great legends.
I'm 43 and I can still relate to this song. Enjoy 30 while you can, it goes by quick.
this has become one of my favorite music videos ever
Turning 30 this sunday. Gonna watch and listen this on repeat
This is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave” by SLT 🐺🎶🐺🎶🐺
happy bday mate
The chorus asking people about shit but they don’t know shit explains the whole world
This song is so good. The message and emotions that are portrayed in this song describe the feelings and thoughts a lot of young adults are dealing with now. It needs more recognition.
Today's my 30th so i've been jamming this every hour! Cheers guys.
Badflower is probably the most underrated band 2 date. They're fucking amazing
0:28 When that man screamed "that's a vegan cake" I really lost it
That man reminds me of my Dad! He would have done the same thing grabbing at the cake. Lol... that's funny!
This video does a great job of showing what it like to live in 2020 as well as grow up in America. I love the single shot look of the video, and the ending is perfect.
Can't wait to play this song on my 30th birthday. Still a couple years away but ik it's right around the corner
This is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave” by SLT 🐺🎶🐺🎶🐺
the most underrated band in existence
I love all the references and pure emotion! This will definitely be on repeat for a while.
WOW! This sound suits them so well. Their catalog of songs is just incredible & their videos are always great!
I just turned forty and this fully sums up the experience, ten years later
Oh my, so many goosebumps, you are such a beautiful soul, dark or light you were meant for flight! Forever you'll carry the light❤
Damn this video is so well produced and choreographed. Love the lyrics too!
idk when Josh dyed his hair pink, but I'm diggin it. song is pretty fuckin good too.
Today, I'm 30. Today, this is my anthem ❤️
This is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave” by SLT 🐺🎶🐺🎶🐺
This song makes me wanna sit on the tv and watch the couch
I've literally watched this like a hundred times it's amazing.
Ur only at a hundred? lmao
You guys are my favorite type of FLOWER 💕
I'd lost hope about good music until listen Badflower. Thanks God
Most of the popular artist are in their late 20's or older, so these kids are listening to people like the baby, lil baby, cardi b, etc.... so shit we can still have a good time.
About to turn 32. Turning 30 is weird. You feel like you have to be an "adult" and then feel inside you wanna put an emoji mask and party with your friends
Summed it up perfect. Then when you try to party like you used to, you immediately remember why you don't do it anymore.
Hands down one of my favourite modern punk bands, Josh and the crew kill it constantly !
This was my introduction to the band. Honestly. This is some good shit.
Why does it seem like every time they put out a new song, they just keep getting better.. I've seen this video over 100 times and it never gets old! ❤️
I doubt I can describe how happy I am that you are releasing another song. I have a feeling this will be another song I’ll relate to since I’ll be 30 in less than a year. Thank you for being yourselves and thank you for creating Everything you have.
This song deserves to be known by much more people! It’s too good
At last a song with truthful words, love it♥️
It’s my 30th birthday today so naturally I will start my day by listening to this.
