For those feeling they are below the person they like: This song is about a guy who feels the same way. He doesn't think that he'll EVER have a chance with the girl of his dreams. Then one day, she calls him and tells him that she loves him--"She calls to speak to me, I freeze immediately, 'cause what she says sounds so unreal, 'cause somehow I can't believe that anything should happen..." You can't always rely on the other person making a move though.
Bachman wrote the song about an experience that he had in high school when he was trying to get a girl to date his stepbrother.[4] "I attempted to bribe the hottest girl in our high school to go out on a date with [my stepbrother]," Bachman told MTV News. "So as the conversation between me and what I thought was this godly, exalted woman progressed, I began to feel more and more uncomfortable and awkward, and so I just remember that feeling... I don't want to say fear, but just kind of being in awe of her
jus came here to reminisce memories, me and my dad use to cruise around the city at night, this song always came on for some reason, i was only 7. I am now 21, my dad caught Covid in Oct and he passed away, today I miss him sooo so much. i jus love to remember the memories especially songs that always came on, on the radio.
i dunno...i was 16 when this song came out...it struck me as beautiful and i learned to play it on the guitar...still love it...who cares how old anyone is? i think its great that some young people listen to good music:)
this song is about being infatuated with a woman, whenever you exaggerate someone in your perception, you automatically minimise yourself, or put yourself down the result is you act juvenile around them, stuttering and giggling, you self sabotage, story of my teenage years haha
Last night, I was at a Randy Bachman concert, his son Ty was there next to him on stage and Ty sang his song!! It was surreal listening to this, and the rest of the old Bachman songs (remember The Guess Who, and Bachman Turner Overdrive?)!! Everyone in the audience was singing along with great abandon!! I could feel the awesome vibe manifesting within the concert hall!! It was a fabulous night of music and story-telling!! So good!! I'm still on a music high!!
I'd like to dedicate this to the one that got away, the one who made me feel like somebody...Mary Beth of Sumner Washington...you'll always have a special place in my heart-James
What a lovely song ♥ It's one of those 'feel good' songs that you just can't help but to smile and sing along with. The 90's was a good decade. The music was uplifting, the tv shows were amazing, and your childhood was more memorable. I look around me today and I feel as though kids these days are growing up too fast. Little do they know that once they become an adult, they'll miss being a kid. I hope they come across this kind of music to help take them back when that time comes :)
You know when you're so bone-tired that your brain stops working properly, and you start getting really stupid ideas? That just happened to me driving home from a long, tiring day at work, when it struck me, out of nowhere, that this song was Tal Bachman's version of Dante's sonnets to Beatrice, or Petrarch's to Laura. Naturally, my exhausted brain found this hilarious. Courtly love, '90s style.
@@haraldkrull2549 Hah, I must've been REALLY tired because I completely forgot I even made that comment till I got this notification. Then I read it again and was like "so apparently a sleep-deprived brain is a high brain." 😄
I think this song came out like 1998 . I do remember this here Fresno ,California I heard song on the radio also I have good memories of this song of the back day .
Thank you so much for posting this tune/video. If a man ever wants to win a girl's heart, simply dedicate it to her......making sure she hears/sees/knows the words within!
This song is simply amazing, but it makes me so sad.The one man I love more than anything in this world used to sing this to me all the time and now he's no longer mine and that was my stupidity. I wish he was laying here singing this to me like so many nights before... I love him so much.
Awesome song, thanks for uploading Jordyn and a great job with the clarity and volume (: I bought this CD the day it came out and still have it..the entire album is fantastic!!
my. boyfriend sung this when we were in School he sung it for the girl he loved (me) at first I thought he was just being silly then I realised that he was actually serious he told me that he feels safe and sound when he is in my arms he even said that when he hugs me he felt warm he was only 14 and I was 15 now I'm 17 and he is 16 we've been together for almost 3 years and he still sings this even now he will ask me to hug him so he feels comfort and so he knows I still love him even when I tell him I will never leave him Liam if you are reading this I want to say I love you and will never leave your side I'll always be there for you
she is so high above me but asked me out yesterday n now i git my chance with the girl i wonted ever seence i started working at this company n right after it happened this song came on the radio n ive been stuck on this song seence then...n it came on again today... so ya... fantastic song for the time in my life
Had such high hopes for the recording career of this dude. Great song and great album...brings me right back to summer of '99. What the hell happened ?
Honestly I don't even think that "she's outta my league" term applies anymore. I use to believe that, and therefore never went after certain girls who were incredibly hot, I viewed them as too high above me. But I've seen too many cases where those girls end up going out with guys you'd never imagine, guys who physically look far worse then me, have weaker personalities, and treat the girl not as nice as me, and I've felt terrible regret. You just gotta go for it, the more of those super hot girls you go for the better chance you'll win one over. Live in the present, and forget both your pasts and the troubles of the future and you'll be happy!
The same could be said about girls who think that a good looking guy is way out of her league. In all honestly, there are girls who have boyfriends that aren't... good looking, nice, smart or are downright jerks and yet it's rare to see a guy date a woman who isn't very pretty.
Better yet, ask a girl who isnt exactly the hottest you have ever seen. You might be surprised how much beauty will be revealed, inside and out, once you get to know her.
paladindragoongirl18 I think that is less reflective of what men like in women and more revealing about what men think they're supposed to like in women.
I wrote a different version called He's so High. Of course, I added some tweaks to it. He's blood, flesh, and bone. With a heart made of stones He's touch, smell, sight, taste, and sound. Somehow I've always dreamed That anything would happen, But I know where I belong, And it's not gonna happen. Yeah, yeah. Cause he's so high, He's high beyond me, he's a hottie. He's so high Like Alexander, Robin Hood, or Julius Caesar. He's so high, high beyond me A man who's way too good for me He's from a high society He's got the best of everything. What could a girl like me, ever really offer? He's as perfect as he can be I shouldn't even bother Cause he's so high, He's high beyond me, he's a hottie. He's so high Like Alexander, Robin Hood, or Julius Caesar He's so high, high beyond me He came and spoke to me I froze immediately Cause what he said sounded so unreal Somehow I've always dreamed That anything would happen, But I know where I belong, And it's not gonna happen. Yeah, yeah. Cause he's so high, He's high beyond me, he's a hottie. He's so high Like Alexander, Robin Hood, or Julius Caesar He's so high, high beyond me.
Men a lot of women deserve the world out here. But the ones who are bitter are probably bitter because of us in many ways, we've failed as a gender to show a woman what a real man is about. Yes embrace our masculinity but at the same time it doesn't mean overrule or her or make her powerless instead as the man you gotta be able to empower her to the best of her abilities.
An older friend of mine once gave me some advice- "become the man that the woman of your dreams deserves." Ever since I met her she has appeared in my dreams. I used to have regular night terrors but now she appears as an angel who lifts me above it all. Today she may be so high above me, but she also gives me the drive to work harder and better myself no matter how tired I am so that one day I can deserve to stand beside her.
I was a little girl when this song & music video came out. I was so hypnotized😵💫🤩 I still love it and tears roll down my face when watch the video. Maybe it's nostalgia
😭 Reminds me of running around town with my granny or just sitting around listening to the radio at home in the early 2000s. Beautiful childhood memories.
I'm so glad my parents brought me up listening to classic rock. Though I like One Direction and Taylor Swift I still cherish the same music that I grew up with and whenever I find a song that I listened to when I was younger and I forgot about; I almost start crying.
Hey Peter: Way!!! Very very very good point. Just too bad that he did not carry it over & onward like his Pa. Sure many more songs were in him. Perhaps it was his tone, yet anything is fixable today. Hey, just a thought -maybe he got hooked up with an American Woman.
i've known this song for almost my entire life, and i've always loved it, even before i was old enough to understand the meaning of the lyrics ♥ good times being four years old and rocking out to this :D
35 years of marriage, and i still feel this way about my wife
Mark Larrimore awe! ♥️
LOL she's probably high above you on the 2nd floor with the guy she doesn't want you to know about.
what can a guy like you ever really offer ? lol
Pussy

SUMMER OF '99...I WAS LIVING IN L.A......THIS SONG WAS PLAYED EVERYWHERE...BRINGS BACK GREAT MEMORIES...LOVE THIS SONG FOREVER !!!!!
Summer of 99 was everything!
@@amf6217Definitely, I just had graduated High School riding around with friends! Very nostalgic 😎

"Like Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, or Aphrodite"... Makes the history buff in me so happy to see this in music :')
Steven nice!! 👍🏻
Cleopatra - Class and charm
Joan of Arc - Can handle herself
Aphrodite - Beautiful
He's describing a near perfect woman.
What an ethereal song, a heavenly one-hit wonder. Timeless! This band has alot of talent
It was a band? Always thought it was just the singer alone
My heart
Agreed ❤
i dunno...i was 16 when this song came out...it struck me as beautiful and i learned to play it on the guitar...still love it...who cares how old anyone is? i think its great that some young people listen to good music:)
its been 10 years since u wrote this and the song is still played sometimes like on tiktok
just randomly popped into my head today
Im 14 currently still love this
This is the perfect song to be played while riding through neighbourhood or driving down the highway or something like that
Yesss!!!
Imagine driving through the snow!
That would be great
this song is about being infatuated with a woman, whenever you exaggerate someone in your perception, you automatically minimise yourself, or put yourself down the result is you act juvenile around them, stuttering and giggling, you self sabotage, story of my teenage years haha
^This 🖒
Yeah do not adapt the philosophy of this song ,the opposite is true, the average and mediocre woman is very fortunate that good and decent men exist.
It can be, but not necessarily so. One can be self confident but still have the feeling that a person may be unattainable due to how they impress you.
Me around any dude I find attractive
Story of my life, and I’m pushing 23.
the melody fits a romantic comedy trailer so well
dyan cadao I think he just meant the background music though
This doesn't really have to do with your comment but, I love your profile picture.

I can't belive I forgot about this song, it used to be my favorite, I'd hear it on the radio almost every morning.
man if some dude sang this to me i'd melt on the spot
I'll do it
Yikes
Bet
Frrr 😫
You gay bruh?
Last night, I was at a Randy Bachman concert, his son Ty was there next to him on stage and Ty sang his song!!

Omg this is making me miss the 2000s I'm 24 now these songs always take me back to my young days I would go back if I could
Same here
This sound is just simply, timeless.
I melt when he says "Aphrodite"
Lol why
I cringe.
Love it!
Becky Cave 😂 Why? Wtf
Sooo relatable I know exactly what you mean 🙌🙌😭😭😍
My God, what a heavenly sent song despite the years ! It's the reason why a woman is so amazing.
❤😊 wonderful comment honoured Thank you 🙏🏻👍👌🏻
One of the best songs of all time.. I remember this song when i was a little kid, now im 21 and i still can't get enough of this song.
Dedicated to that perfect girl in everyone's life who'll never know you love her.
I have felt this way about all my crushes
I have someone like that and she’ll never know
@@Joeh2o you should tell her
@@danielwallsten332 lol i told mine 5 months ago on new years. Now we talk every single day.

What a Great year to be a 10-year-old kid!
I had a blast banging this and BSB's Millenium all daaaaay long.

Heard this song for the first time while I was at Firehouse Subs earlier today. Can’t believe I’ve never heard it before!
Heard this from the movie She's out of my league and fell in love this music since then.
currently in this phase with a crush 😭
she’s just too cool for me
Hey, Justin if you see this I love you! (He sent me this song and I've never replayed a song so many times in my life) ❤
someday, the session players of my wedding, should play this... ^^
I love this song! The lyrics are so meaningful to me! Inspirational!
if you heard to the music, it is so energetic, full of spirit and a little bit fierce... but I just don't know... why am I CRYING... :')
This song makes me feel old
yes

This is the soundtrack of my life right now.
this was one of those songs that i knew all my youth yet always forgot about before i could look up the name.. glad i finally stumbled across it!
Dedicated to the one I could never be with, but who will always have a special place in my heart.
I've always loved this song and this small town girl is defiantly getting noticed in the world

theres a talent show coming up and i want to sing this to my crush in front of everybody. even if she doesnt know its to her.

Thank You ! For coming back into my life ... 😘😘😘 And sharing this song with me
she so stoned

😂😂🚬🚬🚬🚬
I am rn OMG hahhaahhahaa hi
Mr Satrio It’s not about that, he’s talking about how amazed he is that she could love him when he’s not in the same social class as her
Where did the time go?? This song takes me back to a cool time in my life. But it also reminds me of my late husband. I miss him.
She's so high.. high above me, she's so lovely!
knew this song my whole life but never knew what it was called. it nice to finally know after randomly bursting out singing it for so many years
Now this takes me back.
I'm 109, and I have my bowls pumped to this song!
I wrote a different version called He's so High. Of course, I added some tweaks to it.
He's blood, flesh, and bone.
With a heart made of stones
He's touch, smell, sight, taste, and sound.
Somehow I've always dreamed
That anything would happen,
But I know where I belong,
And it's not gonna happen.
Yeah, yeah.
Cause he's so high,
He's high beyond me, he's a hottie.
He's so high
Like Alexander, Robin Hood, or Julius Caesar.
He's so high, high beyond me
A man who's way too good for me
He's from a high society
He's got the best of everything.
What could a girl like me, ever really offer?
He's as perfect as he can be
I shouldn't even bother
Cause he's so high,
He's high beyond me, he's a hottie.
He's so high
Like Alexander, Robin Hood, or Julius Caesar
He's so high, high beyond me
He came and spoke to me
I froze immediately
Cause what he said sounded so unreal
Somehow I've always dreamed
That anything would happen,
But I know where I belong,
And it's not gonna happen.
Yeah, yeah.
Cause he's so high,
He's high beyond me, he's a hottie.
He's so high
Like Alexander, Robin Hood, or Julius Caesar
He's so high, high beyond me.
Clever genderbend-esque twist.

Part of my childhood. Kudos, Jordyn. ;)
love the song, and the animation at the very beginning with the falling rose petals is sooo pretty
When my Co-worker was singing this and laughing. I have no idea why it felt like I was in the scene of a movie where it's at it's high point.
An older friend of mine once gave me some advice- "become the man that the woman of your dreams deserves." Ever since I met her she has appeared in my dreams. I used to have regular night terrors but now she appears as an angel who lifts me above it all. Today she may be so high above me, but she also gives me the drive to work harder and better myself no matter how tired I am so that one day I can deserve to stand beside her.
