I hit 40 last year. This music, those times, they all seem more real to me than how things are today. Like I went to sleep in that reality and woke up in the alternate reality that is now. Hope wherever you're at in life, it's a good place, take care, friend 🖖
Back in the 90's, you actually had a pretty good shot at that being the case. Put me back at Paradise Records by LSU in '94, give me a dart and a blindfold...whatever it hit was likely to kick ass....
Such a goddamn great album. Really a shame these guys weren’t bigger… but can also kinda understand how they weren’t. But absolutely love them, and “Fizzy Fuzzy Big and Buzzy”
This song always takes me back to riding with my dad in his car in the summer, windows down, just having a blast. I was maybe 12 or 13, carefree and enjoying so much in life. I think going to call my dad now.
Please do Alex, i would do anything to be able to do the same thing. The only thing better than your awesome memories, is being able to relive those memories with him in person. I am happy you both still have each other.
Yes sir. I was 7 or 8 and my Dad would jam to this all the time. You never realize what small moments like that mean to you until later. Prayers to the both of you brotha and rock on
They did a concert at my college.... There was like a total of 20 people there. It was so sad. I talked to the lead singer for like 20 minutes after it was over. Still some of the greatest music I've ever heard.
JMH3 I fail to see how nobody's ever heard of them since they are a charting band and charted on Modern Rock charts in the United States in the 1990s I think also on Canadian charts
@@adamhovey407 Correct. Stupid people think "nobody's heard of them". Pretty sure they had a major marketing campaign. Possibly even free cassettes in magazines...
Here because of a medical chart. Grown woman gave birth after full-term pregnancy and told the Doctor she didn't know he was pregnant, though it was visibly obvious. Brought to mind the "Stupid People" line in this song. Had to listen to the whole thing. 👍
This was my first true concert. It was 1996. I was 11. My dad took me and my best friend. It was amazing. This band will forever be special to me on so many levels.
My dad just turned 50, and he’s really taken a liking to bass. He loves this song. He told me that he really wants me and my best bud/jam buddy to learn this song and I just did. Can’t wait to show him tomorrow and teach him!!! It took me a fess min to learn. The hardest part is memorizing the lyrics lol. Cheers 🍻 to the fact that the world his full of stupid people:)
Such an underrated song, it's got it all, cool story, humor, one of the coolest lines in any song ever , not one but two badass solos. What more could you want 🤷♂️
The whole album "Fizzy Fuzzy Big & Buzzy" is 90's masterpiece1 Not a bad song on it - in fact every song fits perfect into one great listen!! Go get yourself a copy!
Me and my brother used to do a weekly top 30 every Friday night when we were in our teens. We used to look forward to it. We’d write them in a piece of paper! He was surprised that this song “spent” 8 weeks at #1 on my list
Lol awesome me and my sister used to do a weekly wrestling news radio show we would record on a Cosette tape lol that was a major thing to do back then
My son has started watching Star Trek episodes with his dad recently...I played this song for him the other day... He was trying to sing along with it at the first chorus like he knew the words... Pretty sure he is going to do some amazing things in this world y'all...
One of the most underrated albums and underrated bands of all time. Glad they are still together under Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers. The whole album is terrific not a bad song.
I used to quote the chorus to people; “Show your ID card to the border guard, your alias says your Captain Jean-Luc Picard…” If they got it, we could be friends
I loved this song back in college when it came out. I constantly sing the refrain from it to myself even to this day, probably because it's truer than ever now.
We had a really good radio station where I grew up, and I remember hearing this for the first in the car with my dad. When we got home I got a tape ready and waited (a couple hours) for it to get played again and I taped it to take to my guitar teacher that weekend. I learned it that weekend, and I still know it.
Back around the time this song came out in the '90s, A partner and myself had a historic restoration construction company. There were a few songs that would come on the radio that would get our attention. You know like every construction crew pretty much plays radio except when these few songs came on everybody would put down their tools or drop their tools and start the dance no matter where you were or what you were doing and we could be three or four stories in the air. The guys up there would start dancing. The guys on the ground would start dancing and people coming by got a big thrill out of this and would honk horns and some even stopped and joined us which was fantastic. Now we're much older. My partner passed away about 3 weeks ago. Rip Chris Land and it was one of the best times of my day and this song was our favorite because let's face it. There are so many stupid people out there and we met most of them so this song had a special meaning for all of us. I would like to throw a big shout out to Land & Klein Crew in Louisville, Kentucky. You know who you are if you see this get up and dance. It's been a few years now since we've split up. I'll never forget any of those guys. My partner Chris that has passed and the best helper I ever had that turned into a fantastic Carpenter has also passed. God bless them both. Those that are still here every time I hear this song or play this song, we're all together again up on the scaffolding down on the ground up on them. 3-story roofs dancing our asses off to some great music.
Your story really touched me. This song always go me all charged up too. Back then we where so young full of energy we though we'd live forever and never grow. We'll we are still here no matter how shifty it is at least we have the memories
@@controlyourvessel1710 Hey thanks for the reply or comment whatever lol. Anyway, yeah I knew I wasn't the only one that had memories of younger days. I was probably in my mid to late thirties at that time. 62 now I think I haven't been up long. I had a long night last night so my brain is on pause. I knew there was at least one more person out there that had memories of those days. They were good ones and I'm glad you have good memories. You're right, that's what we have now is our memories and I hold them dear. I hope you have a super day and a great night and the rest of your world is perfect for you and yours.
1996? WTF? I have JUST heard this song for the first time in late Jan. of 2022 on Sirus XM Radio... HOW is THAT POSSIBLE? I thought this new band was in existence... wow. Imagine my disappointment to find out. Well, explains why the song kicks some serious ass... LOL!!!!
Wow!! Heard this song on the radio just now and thought, "I know this song"! Turns out I haven't heard it in about 20 years!! Funny how you hear a great song that's been forgotten and it just takes you back in time! Miss being in my 20s in the great 90s!! Damn, what happened to this world?? It sucks now!
Right when this came out I was up to my eyeballs in little kids and we'd just been sent abroad with my husband's company for three years. So I totally missed it. Then just a couple of days ago Spotify was all, "Hey. You might like this song." And I was all, "HOLY COW, SPOTIFY, YOU ARE SO RIGHT!" It rocks and is also hilarious and has a great hook and guitar and story. What's not to love?
I had a guitar teacher give me this album when I was in 6th grade. The cover with the old plane crash. My dad played tf outta it 😂... Thank you Mr Hall for the awesome music. Wherever you are man 🤙
These guys, Local H, Goldfinger, (a resurrected) School of Fish, etc 90's bands on a single tour are what we need when covid restrictions go away to bring The Fun back. Summer 2021!
First heard this band/song in '96, when I was 10. That being said, it's now 2020, and this song still sound's better than current era, music. Great song, and great memories!
I had no idea that Pauly Shore had such a great voice! (Just kidding, I saw the Refreshments when I was in 8th grade, right before they broke up. FFB&B is still one of my favorite albums ever.)
Me gusta MUCHO!! Saw this band in the 90's ... LIVE from NEW yORK - not. They should be in the Hall of Fame, for certain. Hats off to your father - and y'all.
It's my go to song when we have to pick our tunes after a few dinks. I love how it sounds so simple until you really listen to it and realise just how good it is. Great players and a beautiful sounding Les Paul. Loved it for many years and just about wore the vinyl album out many years ago.
Same here. I had NO idea who the band was, I didn't even know what the name of the song was, not once did I hear a DJ ever mention either bits of info.
@LadiesMan217! I love that one too but it wasall over mtv, or vh1 I knew it. I remember hearing they had been around a while but that was the first song that band member sang.
Loved these guys! This was one of my favorite albums from the 1990's. They had a great sense of humor, when so many of their contemporaries were dark and depressed! The musicianship on this album was also incredible!
The 1990s were THE BEST!!! No Credit Crisis, no Iraq war, no Lindsay Lohan or Paris Hilton. Just good times, and unpretentious kick-ass music! I miss them so much!!
Ummmm...Iraq war not in the 90s huh.... Um yea. There kinda was. Granted it wasnt like a prolonged takeover like the last one was. Hell id love to go back to early 2010s now
@@brandtsavoy6123 Well you can say that the war was only a month long and your 2k war was years long. 90's music is the best. It started to suck after 2005 and now it REALLY SUCKS!!!
@Gaeuvyen yea everyone loves the 90s,I did too as I was a kid..(actually I was pretty miserable as a kid but fucked up childhoods aside lol) but you are right. All the crisis we are going thru all either started or where in the developing stages in the 90s. It was like the kinda calm right before the storm of BAM!!!!! Life,society,your country,and the world in general are f*cked....But 30s and 40s WW2 era kinda the beginning of the end but with technology and a little more spreading of tiny bit of wealth we distracted ourselves from issues..
This is one of my favorite songs ever!. I finally got my band of 56 year olds to play it(I'm 30) a few years ago. Its the crowd favorite now. Nobody has ever heard of these guys, but they did do the theme song for "King of the Hill" on FOX. Probably already been said, but oh well. ROCK ON!
Bought this album, Fizzy, Fuzzy, Big and Buzzy, right after it's release and it's honestly one of the top albums I have ever heard. Not many albums you can just put in and let it play but this is mos def one of em. I love these guys cuz they rock and they are hilarious.
(*I edited my previous comment and UA-cam took it away) Anyway, this brings back memories: I'm the guy who did the voiceover of the fake nature video guy at the beginning of this video, wrote the copy for that too which somehow weirdly sprang out of my head a day or two before ("poke in the head with a sharp object...") By the way, my name's Jason Rosette / The music video was directed by my NYU film school buddy David Dobkin ... anyway, great song and nice to see it again ! Hope it stays up, All the Best
Great song. I remember hearing it while driving up north around Omaha. What I cannot ignore is the tinny sound, like it's been recorded "online" via tight bandwidth. Listening to long-distance AM radio is kinda like this…
He looks high as a kite in the beginning, great times. I miss the 90's the best music ever. I was in my 20s in the 90's, being wild drive fast, getting baked, shrooms, camping with friends listening to awesome music. How I miss those days. Songs like this remind me of those days.
Aaah! I had a Sunbird too. I don't think they were ever very popular, but I too blasted this song from one. I don't think there will ever be another decade like the 90's.
This song has a place in my heart.....reminds me of being right out of high school.....good times .....and all kinds of new music was coming out every day it seems....
I was at the Lion's Lair bar in Denver in Febuary 1996 for the cd release party that included this song. What a rockin' concert that was!!! Oh, the memories...
And just like that, I'm 22 again. ❤
I hit 40 last year. This music, those times, they all seem more real to me than how things are today. Like I went to sleep in that reality and woke up in the alternate reality that is now.
Hope wherever you're at in life, it's a good place, take care, friend 🖖
Until you wake up in the morning and everthing hurts that's not fair!
I’m 22 now 😏
20 again here. To be young again...
2024 and this song still f'n hits like it did almost 30 years ago!
Jeebus what now I feel old! LOL
Amen brother, glad my dad introduced me to these guys a decade ago. Still listen to this and Interstate today.
it's a great song
Just saw him last night in Tucson. Hasn't lost a single damn note.
One of those times back in 90's when you heard a catchy song on the radio, bought the album, and discovered you got your money's worth.
Probably my most played CD!
so fucking good. . . not a single bad song
Facts
Back in the 90's, you actually had a pretty good shot at that being the case. Put me back at Paradise Records by LSU in '94, give me a dart and a blindfold...whatever it hit was likely to kick ass....
Such a goddamn great album. Really a shame these guys weren’t bigger… but can also kinda understand how they weren’t. But absolutely love them, and “Fizzy Fuzzy Big and Buzzy”
A great song for many reasons, not least of which is that it has the best name-check of Captain Jean-Luc Picard in rock history.
They're the pride of the Valley & they dropped a Star Trek reference. They scored a deuce w/ me as a result.
I never knew any of the lyrics except the part about Capt Jean-Luc Picard of the United Federation or Planets
Amen!!🖖🤘

Ccg yy.

Yes sir. I was 7 or 8 and my Dad would jam to this all the time. You never realize what small moments like that mean to you until later. Prayers to the both of you brotha and rock on
This song still makes me smile like it did when it was brand new.
I remember this song. I liked it
Always. ❤
The Refreshments had it all: musicianship, intelligence, and a sense of humor. One of the very best bands of the 90’s in my opinion.

OP wasn’t being literal you numbskulls.
this is the most 90's band I've ever seen. These dudes did the king of the hill theme
Keegan Kelly I was not aware of that but that is a very cool fact.
Yes. They did.
King of the Hill borrowed their well-established warm-up tune, actually.
Tempe was full of music, back in the early 90's.
@@magnificentfailure2390 AZ music!
How true, Keegan Kelly - that theme song is titled "Yahoos and Triangles", and
I enjoy it very much.
I like The Refreshments--they're alternative!
Bobby, you take that back!
a lot of shredding going on. never realized how underrated this song really was. classic
Here because of a medical chart. Grown woman gave birth after full-term pregnancy and told the Doctor she didn't know he was pregnant, though it was visibly obvious. Brought to mind the "Stupid People" line in this song. Had to listen to the whole thing. 👍

This was my first true concert. It was 1996. I was 11. My dad took me and my best friend. It was amazing. This band will forever be special to me on so many levels.
The more time goes by, the more relevant this song becomes.
fuckin' Ay
That seems fair.

Cheers 🍻 to the fact that the world his full of stupid people:)
How did it go?
Listened to this album growing up. To the point where when one song ends, i start singing the next.
Dezirae Dutcher yeah as great as this song is, its not nearly as good as Mekong, or Interstate, or Mexico
I listen their 2 CD every year 😉
Me too!!!!
Such an underrated song, it's got it all, cool story, humor, one of the coolest lines in any song ever , not one but two badass solos. What more could you want 🤷♂️
That drum fill right after the first “uh huh-“
You know the filthy grunge sound of the 90’s is about to rock your face.
@Eric Andrews so does your mom but no ones complaining.
This song is still in heavy rotation for me after all these years! 💓Like no time has passed!! Nothing like music in the 90's! Engage 😁CJLP
The whole album "Fizzy Fuzzy Big & Buzzy" is 90's masterpiece1 Not a bad song on it - in fact every song fits perfect into one great listen!! Go get yourself a copy!
I agree, this is a classic album. I miss experiencing music by the album. Downloads and streaming changed everything.
I did, I actually got it from my nephew. Would like to have seen them back in the 90's.
Will do now. Thanks.
Cool. My, late wife , and I, rocked to it in the mid. 1990's.
Here comes the same old verse about Mexico...
This is one of those songs you forgot about - so it hits you hard with nostalgia. Hard.
SO HARD.
never forgot it

My dad used to sing and play this song for me when I was little then I forgot about it and now like 6 or 7 years later, I’m listening to it again
Yeah, some wicked Rock out of the 90s. I miss those radio days.
Me too!
Soundtrack to the summer of '96!!
What a blast and a blur. It was 3 years after Graduation and the parties were still raining down from the skies like snow flakes. Good times for sure
Dude exactly
The 1990s were THE BEST!!! No Credit Crisis, no Iraq war, no Lindsay Lohan or Paris Hilton. Just good times, and unpretentious kick-ass music! I miss them so much!!
Ummmm...Iraq war not in the 90s huh.... Um yea. There kinda was. Granted it wasnt like a prolonged takeover like the last one was. Hell id love to go back to early 2010s now
@@brandtsavoy6123 Well you can say that the war was only a month long and your 2k war was years long. 90's music is the best. It started to suck after 2005 and now it REALLY SUCKS!!!
@@ximenoworks yep. I was a kid in early and mid 90s with much older siblings so i loved 90s music nobody my age knew
I guess you don’t remember the Persian Gulf War.
@Gaeuvyen yea everyone loves the 90s,I did too as I was a kid..(actually I was pretty miserable as a kid but fucked up childhoods aside lol) but you are right. All the crisis we are going thru all either started or where in the developing stages in the 90s. It was like the kinda calm right before the storm of BAM!!!!! Life,society,your country,and the world in general are f*cked....But 30s and 40s WW2 era kinda the beginning of the end but with technology and a little more spreading of tiny bit of wealth we distracted ourselves from issues..
If this isn't what love in the flesh is ,
Than there is no such thing

This is one of my favorite songs ever!. I finally got my band of 56 year olds to play it(I'm 30) a few years ago. Its the crowd favorite now. Nobody has ever heard of these guys, but they did do the theme song for "King of the Hill" on FOX. Probably already been said, but oh well. ROCK ON!
1:20 "Everybody knows that the world is full of stupid people" what an understatement, especially the fact whether or not everybody does know that!
one of my favorite albums from the 90s, maybe ever... love Roger Clyne's lyrics. I had never seen the video til now.
i grew up like 6 yrs old rockin to this.. anways... lol
One of the absolute best tunes of the 90's!! This tune kicks ass!!
I’m lucky to call Roger a very good, close friend of mine. He’s a great guy and very humble. Wish I had the time to go visit him in Mexico next week.
Sounds like you have a very cool friend
I love this song
Just found this great song again after many years. It still rocks!
Bought this album, Fizzy, Fuzzy, Big and Buzzy, right after it's release and it's honestly one of the top albums I have ever heard. Not many albums you can just put in and let it play but this is mos def one of em. I love these guys cuz they rock and they are hilarious.
(*I edited my previous comment and UA-cam took it away) Anyway, this brings back memories: I'm the guy who did the voiceover of the fake nature video guy at the beginning of this video, wrote the copy for that too which somehow weirdly sprang out of my head a day or two before ("poke in the head with a sharp object...") By the way, my name's Jason Rosette / The music video was directed by my NYU film school buddy David Dobkin ... anyway, great song and nice to see it again ! Hope it stays up, All the Best
When u love the song don't know the name and can't listen to it for years until you remember the lyrics
It just keeps getting better 😊
I remember when this came out, I was learning guitar, and I was so impressed by the guitar parts, and the solo...I had to learn it...was tough.
Fizzy Fuzzy Big and Buzzy = one of the most underrated albums of the 90s. great songs. and i love the lead guitar player's sound.
Great song. I remember hearing it while driving up north around Omaha. What I cannot ignore is the tinny sound, like it's been recorded "online" via tight bandwidth. Listening to long-distance AM radio is kinda like this…
He looks high as a kite in the beginning, great times. I miss the 90's the best music ever. I was in my 20s in the 90's, being wild drive fast, getting baked, shrooms, camping with friends listening to awesome music. How I miss those days. Songs like this remind me of those days.
my dad put this on the radio when we used to go camping
THIS IS THE TRUE DEFINITION OF ONE HIT WONDERS .
Such emotions come with this song, I love it.
Aaah! I had a Sunbird too. I don't think they were ever very popular, but I too blasted this song from one. I don't think there will ever be another decade like the 90's.
Awesome song! Going to see these guys in downtown Sacramento for their 20th Anniversary of this album. Good times!
This song has a place in my heart.....reminds me of being right out of high school.....good times .....and all kinds of new music was coming out every day it seems....
yeah, man. yobber here. this was the soundtrack to my last year in high school. good times.
I was at the Lion's Lair bar in Denver in Febuary 1996 for the cd release party that included this song. What a rockin' concert that was!!! Oh, the memories...
