I can't believe that during the time Gwen made this iconic music video she was actually 35 years old. I thought she was probably in 20s at the time. She looks so youthful even when she is 51 years old.
Making pancakes with cinnamon and bananas thought about this song Nice night August 2021. Love ♥️🤘🎶💯🍌🍌🍌🍌 have a good one y'all ;) even though I hate eating alone food should be shared not wasted 😎🇱🇷 S
this song, the production, the almost eerie guitar sounds during the chorus and of course witty, fun lyrics, goes SO HARD to this very day. Gwen deserves a lot more recognition I think beyond being assoicated with one major song like this
@@paigerenee4173 This s*** is bananas is a mash-up of the songs "Hollaback Girl" by Gwen Stefani (obviously) and "This is the new *hit" by Marilyn Manson who is a Rock singer. Some people were not aware of this song therefore found this music from that mash-up and some listened to the This is the new *hit, because they were not aware of that song. I hope this'd explains it all!
At 1:56, when Gwen Stefani sings, "Another one bites the dust," you can hear the backing track play the signature riff in Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust."
The stomping feet and clapping sound you hear throughout the song is also a reference to Queen. In sporting events you hear the stomping and clapping in time to "We Will Rock You".
I turned 30 this year, and felt so old. The fact that Gwen was 35 y/o in this video makes me somehow happy, like I can still accomplish good things even now at my 30s
if you are just staying on your ass and feel sorry for yourself every day nothing will change. You need to go out, work out, change job if you don't get enough paid and start socializing more.
i remember back in school this song played everywhere and i used to hate it but it somehow got stuck in my brain and i started liking it, so i listen to it once in a while to remember old times
I remember this song right about the time I was graduating from university. I'm not really a big fan of music made after '02, but compared to the crap they're cranking out these days, this is pure 24 karat gold. Plus, it's Gwen Steffani. She can do no wrong. 😍

It would have if it was released when youtube existed. Usually songs that have over a billion views were on YT from the moment they were released. This was a hit when YT wasn't yet a thing.
@Erick Tanses yeah, four years ago it was the standard to release new songs on youtube. UA-cam exists since 2006 and is common for music video releases since 2009/2010. This song is from 2005. So the initial release was via other platforms, tv mainly. So when it was a hit, the time period where most ppl would be interested in the song, they watched it on TV, as youtube didn't yet exist. In contrary to despacito.
@@jt5733 yes i agree. And even if youtube existed back then it wasnt that much of a trend as compared to now. Those days trl and mtv were more of a thing.
In case no one understands what a “holla back girl” is, in the beginning of this video the girl calls out to Gwen and instead of Gwen hollering back she turns and laughs meaning she’s not with the back and forth bs. And this song was actually a diss to Courtney love calling Gwen “a cheerleader” which Gwen was nothing like growing up. Plus, it has double meaning in this case meaning “I don’t holler back, I’m gonna beat your ass instead.” And basically the lead cheerleader shouts something and the cheerleaders holler back by repeating what the lead cheerleader says. “Give me a B, Give me an A, Give me an N” etc.
The „scary“ part is whereas she was 35 when the video was recorded she looked much younger! Im 31 and I wish I could have her strenght. She is still amazing. I love her
Nothing wrong with that. I always tell the kids I teach: You will not want to be dancing to the songs you all are playing in high school at your 30-year reunion.
It is easy, exercise a lot and don't poison your body with all kinds of crap like so many like to do (fried food, meat, French fries, refined carbs, sodas, beer, alcohol, cigarettes, drugs) Gwen is rich and has her own personal trainer, maids and cook, but still...She is also vegetarian
Random Weeb Gosh, just ruin everything. I had a nice moment, and that one like. Then YOU had to ruin it all! I bet you're one of those people who talk about school and education at parties.
In order to fully understand what a "hollaback girl" is, one must first understand what it means to "hollaback." When one hollas back, one responds to a verbal insult with their own reciprocal verbal insult. This in itself is not necessarily a negative thing, however to become a "hollaback girl" is something to be avoided. A "hollaback girl" is a girl who responds only with these verbal insults, without ever actually taking it to the next level and kicking some ass. In other words, a hollaback girl is all talk and no walk. That best explains as to why Gwen Stefani wrote this song in response to Courtney Love's insult on her. Courtney insulted her by calling her a "cheerleader". And the rest is history.
@Ricardo that sounds like the definition of a "clapback" not a "hollaback". A clapback is a verbal insult to verbal insult. Ex: "Rihanna had the best clapbacks on Twitter." "Hollaback" from the AAVE word "holla" means to attempt get someone's attn that you are attracted to and romantically interested in. Ex: "My boyfriend's brother tried to holla at me, but I didn't hollaback" Maybe Gwen took creative license because hollaback sounds better in verse than clapback.
Saachi S uhm your super ignorant of you think black people cant be racist. It’s true that the minority is often at the other side of racially charged exclusion by a black guy going “ I hare white people their so annoying” is racist lol 😂.
It feels like just yesterday I was 4 and my sis was show in me the clean version and my bro was showin me lollipop by Lil Wayne, now they r 29 and both have 2 kids :(
Fun Fact for the youngsters: (rockstar) Courtney Love insulted (rival rockstar) Gwen Stefani by calling her a cheerleader, which then lead Gwen Stefani to write this March/Cheer in reply. In an interview, Stefani is quoted in saying, “You want me to be a cheerleader? Well, I will be one then. And I'll rule the whole world, just you watch me.” Upon the songs release it did very good in the charts placing at #1. The song is noted for teaching a whole generation how to spell the word, “Bananas”. A shortened edited version is still used at football games, using a combination of the Marching Band and Cheerleaders. Usually, the Marching Band will play the tune while the Cheerleaders cheer the word, “Bananas”. To this day, NOTHING Courtney Love has ever written has reached Gwen Stefani’s “Hollaback Girl” popularity. ...and that’s how you deal with bullies ladies and gentlemen.
"Gwen Stefani created one of the most danceable diss tracks of all time. Stefani's megahit "Hollaback Girl" was a response to something snarky Courtney Love had said about Gwen being like a high school cheerleader." ---- This fact makes me like this song so much more!!1
Courtney Love is hated by a lot of people...they believe she's responsible for Kurt Cobain's death... WHY would he marry THAT THING anyway...he deserved so much better!
@@xonellyxo1060 Love was a grunge/punk girl while she considered gwen has a more pop cheerleader type of girl who didnt deserve her fame (also dumb,popular blonde stereotype)
@@motleybyron4997 not everything’s about kurt and his death. Let him Rest In Peace. Also, you’re just gonna ignore the fact that Courtney is racist, has admitted to animal abuse and is possibly transphobic? :/
I used to listen to her songs with my older sisters when I was 3 🥰 They'd do my hair and nails while singing along to Gwen. Brings back great memories ❤
+ana king of dudes that's actually not what that means. It means a girl who will holla back at someone. Like if (in this case) a girl says something about you, you're fight verbal assault with verbal assault. Or like if a guy catcalls you, you're gonna take it positively and do whatever he wants. So Gwen is basically saying she doesn't cater to other people
A female, usually a teenager or young adult, who, when insulted, will reply verbally. This is typically achieved by insulting the original insulter (otherwise known as 'hollering back', shortened in this case to 'hollaback')
Found this on my old iPod when I hit shuffle because I didn’t have the heart to listen to my usual music two days after the election. This song was the first one on. Rage singing in the car to, “this shit is bananas” was just the thing to lift my funky sorrowful mood. Hadn’t heard it in forever. Had to come here to see who else was vibing to this anthem right now.

Pois amor tome uma decisão
Porque só você Chan eu Woo oficial remanescente Coreia
Amor Tome uma decisão tão a qual você nunca fez em tua vida Tome uma direção o qual irá transformar a sua vida aonde você possa ver e viver um verdadeiro amor agora esteja ou você esteja mas deu o primeiro passo o primeiro passo é o homem que dá em direção a mulher a qual ama amor nenhum dos seus colegas vai fazer nada por você nenhum dos seus colegas vai pagar uma passagem a qual será a sua de vinda ou de ida tudo de você você defendeu de um só Deus para dar um passo para você nascer p tudo dependeu de uma decisão a qual Deus colocou em sua vida ideia de vender o de você para dar o primeiro passo para fazer a sua vida mas tá faltando um item na sua vida você pode ter o bem materiais que for mas você ainda não é completo igual a muitos acham que o bem material o dinheiro os completa se pensar em dessa forma estarão mentindo para vocês mesmo pois o dinheiro ele não completa mas o que completa um homem e o sentimento do homem a vida de um homem é o perdão é a honra e o respeito por si mas olhando o próximo e mais à frente dando um passo maior olhar olhar com olhar diferente um olhar que olha o amor um olhar que vê o amor o olhar que quer o amor e um corpo qual deseja o corpo ele tá fazendo acontecer o olhar ele já foi a busca o corpo já tomou a alma o espírito já decidiu o corpo ele tá dependendo de você imagem e semelhança a dar um primeiro passo em vida e viver este amor a qual vai te completar em vida pois o perdão é uma forma de amor pois a alma é a semelhança é a forma de um amor é a forma do amor mas o espírito e a alma é aquele que busca o complemento do amar e Deus relata quando o casal se completa porque já se acharam e se tornam um corpo só
Significa quando o casal está relacionando-se o verdadeiro amor O casal está se completando calma e o espírito estão fazendo reconhecimento de um e de outro os corpos só se unem mas a alma e o espírito você sente na hora que você sente 165 igual uma vara verde você não sabe o que você olha você não sabe nem para onde olha você não sabe se você olha no olho se você olha o corpo corpo ele fica sem sentido não por amar mas ele ele de tão completo que ele se sente que ele se sente seguro de poder olhar sentir e pegarnão é um corpo físico que o amor pega ele pega o corpo da alma e do espírito o corpo físico a qual nós temos ele sente
Igual quando você pede perdão a Deus e Deus te dá enquanto ele não recebeu o perdão de Deus ele vai ficar te matizando ele vai ficar em cima ele vai ficar te lembrando até você não resisti mais pedir perdão
Então o amor verdadeiro de um homem para mulher da mulher para um homem é tem o mesmo sentido ele não tem diferença entre o perdão qual é o perdoado entre o amor e o amor doado tem o mesmo sentido tudo você sente em vida

Paula Marii how is it 15?
10 years later, nobody still knows what a "hollaback girl" is...
lol I had to do extensive research on it...apparently its a chick you run all over..like a doormat
A hollaback girl is a side chick basically
This one is my fave: A Chickenhead who will Holla back to anyone who holla's at her.
Courtney Love was talking shit or something about Gwen, so she came out with this song
At least everyone is boss at spelling bananas
Happy 20 year to this masterpiece ❤ LAMB FOREVER
Love Gwen🦋
Ah the 2000s.. Alot of good music out during 2000-2009.
Absolutely
truuuuuh
+Jaime Gonzalez Hell yeah

0:04 Saying Kawaii
1:33 Twerking
2:23 Shmoney dance
This video was WAAYY ahead of it's time
Twerking's been around since the late 90's and moe reached america in the early 00's with shit like Azumanga Daioh and School Rumble.
Random Weeb Okay?
Just clarifying that this video is, in fact, not ahead of it's time.
Random Weeb Gosh, just ruin everything. I had a nice moment, and that one like. Then YOU had to ruin it all! I bet you're one of those people who talk about school and education at parties.
Jokes on you, i don't go to parties
"Aaww super KUHWAH-EE"
why
Pieces of me died when she said it that way
kawie!
I was already dying on the inside, this sealed the deal
K Kxyo kawaii : cute
15 years later and this is still so iconic and good
Gwen is slaying it I love her
20 years this song is from 2004
Gwen is slaying it I love her
Sis really taught a whole generation how to spell bananas 😩
Josephine Baker inspired? t ha t`s self confident...
🤣
For people of a darker ethnic background maybe... whites like me already knew just from paying attention in first grade.
I was like 2 years old when I first heard this song and because of it, I learned how to spell bananas
School does cool things.
In order to fully understand what a "hollaback girl" is, one must first understand what it means to "hollaback." When one hollas back, one responds to a verbal insult with their own reciprocal verbal insult. This in itself is not necessarily a negative thing, however to become a "hollaback girl" is something to be avoided. A "hollaback girl" is a girl who responds only with these verbal insults, without ever actually taking it to the next level and kicking some ass. In other words, a hollaback girl is all talk and no walk.
That best explains as to why Gwen Stefani wrote this song in response to Courtney Love's insult on her. Courtney insulted her by calling her a "cheerleader". And the rest is history.
The fact you know all this is astounding 😂
@@ChefboiRT59 just fùcking peg me Tyler ughhhhhhhhh!!!!!
Thank for educating me on that! 😀
@Ricardo that sounds like the definition of a "clapback" not a "hollaback". A clapback is a verbal insult to verbal insult.
Ex: "Rihanna had the best clapbacks on Twitter."
"Hollaback" from the AAVE word "holla" means to attempt get someone's attn that you are attracted to and romantically interested in.
Ex: "My boyfriend's brother tried to holla at me, but I didn't hollaback"
Maybe Gwen took creative license because hollaback sounds better in verse than clapback.
The more you know...
2:30 Is that Pharell Williams?
Yes they worked together
Chisame.K Gtfo
BandsAreLifeBruh That's how you thank me for giving you the asnwer huh
Chisame.K Im prety sure you called me a bitch
BandsAreLifeBruh Yes, Pharrell actually used to be a side kick to many singers before he became a big thing himself
1:53 the Power of 4/4 simple but executed to perfection.
I HAVEN'T HEARD THIS SONG IN YEARS
ikr it brings back memories
@@muichiroutokito9159 so true
She's throwing it back in the car before it was cool
Doja didn’t make the “throw it back”, Gwen did! So y’all need to stop letting doja (a racist) take the non big stars credit.
@@kellyhyland8504 ? No one said doja made it. Also doja can't be racist when she is half black lmao,,,yall funny
Saachi S // that’s like saying “i can’t be racist because i have black friends.”
@@saachis1029 imagine thinking you cant be racist because youre black, astoundingly wrong
Saachi S uhm your super ignorant of you think black people cant be racist. It’s true that the minority is often at the other side of racially charged exclusion by a black guy going “ I hare white people their so annoying” is racist lol 😂.
Watching this makes me sad, that we don't have music like this anymore.
Music nowadays is good, but this kind of music kinda died off : ' (
And thank heavens it did.
I know right
lol the early 2000s were one of the worst times for music
(not worse than now doe)
+Grumpy Stormtrooper true
Then why you are here? Why dont u listen to the "good songs" instead of complaining?
I just came here after i saw you perfomance with Jimmy Fallon and the roots. This song is really a masterpiece, well done Gwen.
This song taught me how to spell Bananas.
wtf lmao.
same here
+Rebecca Lynne ikr? lol
+Rebecca Lynne same
Lol
Did she really just say "Ahh, super KAWAII"?
I'm dying 🤣
Right, it seems so out of place
@@jaypondeenana3831 Such a strange reaction, we legit said it was out of place why u so pressed
@@jaypondeenana3831 she said Kawaii before it was cool, so it’s weird to see
Chill
@@user-jm6cl6fj1l kawaii was already a word
@@oxjulxo before it was COOL
Before weebs were common, read it again
This song turns ten this year wtf
Tais Grim it feels like it just came out a year ago Lls.
Tais Grim lol it felt like yesterday I was listening to it on the radio
It feels like just yesterday I was 4 and my sis was show in me the clean version and my bro was showin me lollipop by Lil Wayne, now they r 29 and both have 2 kids :(
Tais Grim I'm waiting for somebody to reply and say "But this came out in 2009, this isn't 2019 what?"
Ice Fang yeah me to XD
Gwen Stefani is hands down one of the top 10 most gorgeous female artists of all time.
Says the person who's profile pic looks like a pale frog with lips. Bwahahaha!
@MGTOW Monk Gwen Stefani is literally 2cm more than the average height. 🤪
She doesn't even look like a man.
This is basically the theme song of the early 2000's.
Late 2000's
who do i believe?
2005, terrible year for music.
+Daniel Marsden excuse me I was born that year I find that insulting
^ I was 12 years old, making it possible that I am your father
Every time I hear the beat to this, I just think of that crush song.
HUSH HUSH HUSH, BLUSH BLUSH BLUSH, YOU ARE NOW MY BIG FAT CRUSH
Same!
LOL
I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT
Yessss same lahhh
That's kinda sad
When you have haven’t heard it in years
it just hits different.
Gwen is slaying it I love her
Fun Fact for the youngsters: (rockstar) Courtney Love insulted (rival rockstar) Gwen Stefani by calling her a cheerleader, which then lead Gwen Stefani to write this March/Cheer in reply. In an interview, Stefani is quoted in saying, “You want me to be a cheerleader? Well, I will be one then. And I'll rule the whole world, just you watch me.” Upon the songs release it did very good in the charts placing at #1. The song is noted for teaching a whole generation how to spell the word, “Bananas”. A shortened edited version is still used at football games, using a combination of the Marching Band and Cheerleaders. Usually, the Marching Band will play the tune while the Cheerleaders cheer the word, “Bananas”. To this day, NOTHING Courtney Love has ever written has reached Gwen Stefani’s “Hollaback Girl” popularity. ...and that’s how you deal with bullies ladies and gentlemen.
how do you know that ?
wow.. for real? neat.
Cheerleader's are badass though! Courtney Love wasn't smart in her insults!
Epic
Must say, I saw Stefani perform at Santa Barbara Bowl and she was disappointingly b-o-r-i-n-g. Utterly (insert euphemism here).
"Gwen Stefani created one of the most danceable diss tracks of all time. Stefani's megahit "Hollaback Girl" was a response to something snarky Courtney Love had said about Gwen being like a high school cheerleader." ---- This fact makes me like this song so much more!!1
Lindsay Wilson i know right
Lindsay Wilson Pharrell produced it.
I'm guess everytime she says that's my sh like at 1:30. I think it was just edited out
still crap .
Ced Schinck brat
My childhood had the best hits
Late 90s and early 2000s had some great music
Gwen is slaying it I love her🎶✨💕
No way Gwen is good and Pink but best music was the 80's
80's.. :/
This was the chola era.
I’m just learning Gwen wrote all these amazing hits!!!❤
2:30 is Pharrell a vampire? That song is from 2000 more or less and he just looks the same now in 2019!!!
Black don't crack but he's on a totally different level 😮 I need his skin care routine !
@@HelloFellowDinosaurs tf you talking about
WoOow you're sooo edgy :/
please?? he has been since the destiny's child days.
what does this have to do with comment
11 years later and i still dont know what a "Hollaback Girl" is
"hollaback"= holler back
This songs been out way longer.
+iNappy It's a Courtney Love. Gwen wrote this about Courtney because she called Gwen a dumb cheerleader.
+iNappy Someone tell you hello and you say hello in back; but she don´t.
+iNappy this has been around sinse 2004...
This song never gets old. Absolute masterpiece. This song is timeless. Love it !!
this song was my shit back in the day, even if i did not know what they were saying. all i did know was that it was bananas
Gwen, this song will be and it always will be one of your top best songs to me!
Most people don’t realize this was a dis song to Courtney Love after she called Gwen Stafani a “Cheerleader”
Courtney Love is hated by a lot of people...they believe she's responsible for Kurt Cobain's death... WHY would he marry THAT THING anyway...he deserved so much better!
Why would she call her a cheerleader
@@xonellyxo1060 Love was a grunge/punk girl while she considered gwen has a more pop cheerleader type of girl who didnt deserve her fame (also dumb,popular blonde stereotype)
What is Courtney Love?
@@motleybyron4997 not everything’s about kurt and his death. Let him Rest In Peace. Also, you’re just gonna ignore the fact that Courtney is racist, has admitted to animal abuse and is possibly transphobic? :/
The clothing even is soo early 2000’s style i misss it
Sorcerer Vaati64 9
Sorcerer Vaati64 I miss the early 2000s so much! Y2k all the way!!
J Bro swear the 2000s was the best decade
Me too
Sorcerer Vaati64 I kinda miss it too. When did the style change actually?
This doesn’t look staged it just looks like she is having fun with her friends lol
Jahiera who said it was sta-
She drunk
Highschool vibes. That's why
She done it cuz Courtney love called her a cheerleader in a bad way
She had tea with Courtney love and created this song as a middle finger
This beat is bananas
Gwen is slaying it I love her
The fact that she still looks like this is 👌👌👌👌
barbedrotten And so does Pharrell
barbedrotten no she don't. She's washed out. Looks terrible.
barbedrotten demon.
I'm only 2 years older than this video, still this video will forever be iconic

Bruh is it just me or does Gwen never age. 🤔
She had a time machine
PLASTIC SURGERY!
The coolest, most fun diss track ever 👏🏼
I used to listen to her songs with my older sisters when I was 3 🥰 They'd do my hair and nails while singing along to Gwen. Brings back great memories ❤

Going through songs from the 2000s...... Anyone?
same
XD ikr
yep
Oh hell yeah
yasssss
I refuse to believe that this song is now almost 20 years old!
10+ years later, and I still don't know what the fuck a Hollaback Girl is
holla back = hold back
+ana king of dudes that's actually not what that means. It means a girl who will holla back at someone. Like if (in this case) a girl says something about you, you're fight verbal assault with verbal assault. Or like if a guy catcalls you, you're gonna take it positively and do whatever he wants. So Gwen is basically saying she doesn't cater to other people
A female, usually a teenager or young adult, who, when insulted, will reply verbally. This is typically achieved by insulting the original insulter (otherwise known as 'hollering back', shortened in this case to 'hollaback')
I know
The urban dictionay exists for looking up experssions like that.
2017 and still loving this song 💜
THATS BANANAS sorry I had to
I can’t believe this song came out when I was in 4th grade and now I’m 26.
O. M. G. really dude ? Bananas now I can spell it. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Lol
I was 5...🤣
i wasnt even born during the time and i discovered it from itunes in my parents ipad
Bruh, I'm 26 lol
Found this on my old iPod when I hit shuffle because I didn’t have the heart to listen to my usual music two days after the election. This song was the first one on. Rage singing in the car to, “this shit is bananas” was just the thing to lift my funky sorrowful mood. Hadn’t heard it in forever. Had to come here to see who else was vibing to this anthem right now.
Question for everyone... do you think this Gwen Stefani song sound like "Pretty Girls" ?
Ariel Arias no.. but I LOVE that song!! The video just came out today. did you see it?
Kate C yes :D the video is amazing, not boring at all, she is dancing, and having fun again, not mention her hot body!
yess!
Ariel Arias can you please respect Gwen? Thank you.
joaquin castro sorry... i've been disrespectful about her at any moment?
This generation didnt even know who pharrell or gwen stefani was until happy and the voice.
Um...I knew her from Sweet Escape years ago...
***** anybody under the age of 18
smh i hate 2015 kids
im 14 and i love Gwen's music, solo & with No Doubt. as for Pharrell, i remembered him as that guy who featured on every song in the 00s lol
I did. I listened to her when i was 7 x3
i miss the early 2000s music😭😭
Gta5 Queen you know nothing of it.. You were probably under the age of 4... If even born yet.
Nise Hashemi u don't even know me. I was born in the 2000s. plus under the age of 4 can't text freshman!😂.
Gta5 Queen that's exactly what he's saying you were birn in 2k so u were like 2 when this came out
Hoovie ik he just need to stop being nosey! At least I was børn around the music. I was talking about 2008 there was a lot of good music in there.

That " Another bites the dust..." bit is just genius!
Wow this song is super nostalgic they don’t make them like this anymore

Yah because it sampled another one bites the dust
