This song makes me cry. See Im a former addict. One night I was chillin with my little brother and this was during my addiction and he played this song and told me that I was a big part of his life and that he wished I was free from my addiction. He looked upto me and he was afraid of losing me to my addiction. That was 2 years ago. I am sober and it was my little brother's word that really helped me.. all because of this song.
Enjoy them. I have been listening since the early 90's. They have never let me down. Joe Lies is a great video. Have a wonderful journey though your punk of late 80s , and 90s punk. You will feel welcome
Hey, where have you gone? You used to be the one That we looked up to Seemed like nothing could break you down How high was your price? Was it worth it? Nothing in life is a sure bet anyway, you're gone Guess you weren't here from the start In the end Its all a question of heart Hey, where have you gone? You used to be the one That we looked up to Seemed like nothing could break you down How high was the price? And was it worth it? Nothing in life is a sure bet anyway, you're gone I guess you were here from the start In the end Its all a question of heart Hey, where did it go? Everything we fought for And everything it meant, Maybe we were just naive But I still believe There are only a few things That really belong to make who I am Who I was Who I want to be Who I want to be Hey, where have I gone? I used to be the one Looking for a hero In some far off place Blindly ever forward Never knowing all along The truth was right here in my own song
Sort of like "believe in yourself, because in the end, you won't be able to count on anyone else." I know I've commented more than once in the past two months on the same video, but it just never fails to hit home. Inspirational song from an inspirational band.
This is a masterpiece and the lyrics are so meaningful. Music like this is so underrated compared to all the rap and techno pop from modern day. True believers forever!!!
The year was 2002. I wandered into a record store and bought Punk-o- Rama 5 on a whim. Kid was my first introduction to the Bouncing Souls and I've been in love ever since.
I have to give it to The Bouncing Souls. To go so far with just 1riff/song. Please, don't get me wrong, I like these guys. I went to see them in Pomona's fare grounds, along with other bands I like. I got into them when I was in my early 20's. I'm now 53 yrs old and I still enjoy listening to them and even playing along with them. Then it dawn to me. Dame Drew. You could've done the same thing. I was just thinking to hard. Trying to be clever. Who would've known. Anyhow. Happy New Year to all . God Bless The Bouncing Souls. Cheers from Bridgetown CA SGV/USA. LA Puente'sOG Shinkheads. The Victory . Urban Noise Production ✌️ 🇺🇸🎸🍻🛠🙏🇲🇽
Wow, I never thought I'd see two people connect in any meaningful way over youtube comments. This is kinda like finding a diamond ring in the trash. The Bouncing Souls really are an inspirational band. There's something about them that always gives off good vibes.
Thanx for keeping punk rock alive! keep us updated on when you start recording and touring!!!You are light years ahead of the world ,so keep working hard, you can do anything you want (as you already know)... Maybe you can get to be the first punk performance on Mars? Anyway Thanx for putting your music out there., that takes guts!!! oi,oi oi
Pretty profound song compared to the empty crap that gets pushed out by most artists these days. Don't spent your life looking for a hero to live up to your ideals when you can be that hero yourself.
But the world already had this message from another great punk band in the late 70s early 80s. Look at Nobody's Hero, from Stiff Little Fingers. Bouncing Souls are great too though, all their music is always so positive...
That or maybe someone who decided to leave everything behind and do better. This song honestly makes me think of my cousin who passed away a year ago. Introduced me to Punk rock. Decided to leave the "punk" life behind and live in the real world to better himself
soy venezolano pero me ha gustado el punk desde los 10 años, tengo 24 ...una vez vi este video y siempre me gusto. nunca supe como se llamaba hasta hoy estuve que esperar como 10 años para volverlo haber y encontar. jajajjaaj hasta q por fin lo consegui
You know. I've gone through alot of ups and downs these past few years. I overcame suicidal thoughts, cutting, Self-loathing. I got up and made something of myself. You know. And Right now I'm at another low point. Going through the loss of a great friend with whom I had stronger feelings for. She is a great person, and She made me feel better about myself and gave me more self-confidence. And this song definitely makes 100% sense to me now. The Bouncing Souls are the best. hands down
@restrictionsband are you kidding there are other genres in far worse situations than punk. there will always be punk bands in the future keeping the torch alive dont you worry, its the blues and funk genres that need to be worried, they're unfortunately dead RIP....but punk will survive it might be crappy pop punk like green day but at least punk has made it through these tough times!! :)
Song seems ro talk about bands selling out, but they also wear big business band hoodies,Sick of it All etc .. confusing.... great band though,and people,met them a few times in leeds and London

Well done dude! Now your little bro can look up to you again
Keep up the tough work for yourself and him. We all know without knowing that it means the world to him
Today was the day that I discovered Bouncing Souls.
Today was a good day.
7 years since your discovery. Hope you're still a True Believer!
@@snakeops doubt it
Welcome to being a fan of a band with integrity.... absolute great guys and songwriters. Greg(vocals) is an amazing artist also
Enjoy them. I have been listening since the early 90's. They have never let me down. Joe Lies is a great video. Have a wonderful journey though your punk of late 80s , and 90s punk. You will feel welcome
Welcome
Dropping a fresh comment to refresh the recommends for newer generations of UA-camrs in hope it'll be worthy of somewhat change.
Today was the day I discovered the bouncing souls it was definitely a great day these guys rock ... Oct 27 2023
go listen to Manthem
Hey, where have you gone?
You used to be the one
That we looked up to
Seemed like nothing could break you down
How high was your price?
Was it worth it?
Nothing in life is a sure bet anyway, you're gone
Guess you weren't here from the start
In the end
Its all a question of heart
Hey, where have you gone?
You used to be the one
That we looked up to
Seemed like nothing could break you down
How high was the price?
And was it worth it?
Nothing in life is a sure bet anyway, you're gone
I guess you were here from the start
In the end
Its all a question of heart
Hey, where did it go?
Everything we fought for
And everything it meant,
Maybe we were just naive
But I still believe
There are only a few things
That really belong to make who I am
Who I was
Who I want to be
Who I want to be
Hey, where have I gone?
I used to be the one
Looking for a hero
In some far off place
Blindly ever forward
Never knowing all along
The truth was right here in my own song
Thanx bro
Aghast at the fact this band with this music was never a major Top 40 hit. Such great tunes. Thanks boys. Thank you over and over.
Still listen to these guys on a daily basis, they help me through my work day and remind me of simpler times I miss \m/\m/ 9/15/20
Sort of like "believe in yourself, because in the end, you won't be able to count on anyone else."

The most underrated band in history. They are so fucking good it makes me cry. I love these guys.
Same man!!
Absolutely agree.. too much underrated ... I feel sad for them
They really created their own sound and themes that no other band of the genre had. They will always be special
This is a masterpiece and the lyrics are so meaningful. Music like this is so underrated compared to all the rap and techno pop from modern day. True believers forever!!!

Great band. Reminds me of the late 90's. Always made me want to skate and hit that next crooked grind. Thanks for the memories. Nostalgic
Stumbled upon these guys 29 years ago at a small club In Bakersfield, CA. I will never forget this band and that night.
It's been 13 years since I started listening to The Souls. Their songs give me the chills. Truly amazing band!
I discovered Bouncing Souls today! Today was a really great day
Awesome band. Underrated!
Back when they played music on MTV this should have been on there. Christ, blink 182 was popular.
Criminally underrated
this is a brilliant song. i love listening to this sort of music, it shows such passion for what they do, all bands like this are amazing.
Takes me back to New Brunswick 90s skateboarding holy shit I miss them days
I discovered The Bouncing Souls in 2012... Since then, they are in my playlist till date.. and they will be forever
If you are here, you have incredible music taste. I’m proud of you!
Bring me back to 2003, the end of my high school.
same here, 2003 was the year, good old memories!
Class of 03
2003 baby! Miss the fuck outta those times and goin to shows!
Class of '11. I miss similar times. Everything went downhill after 2006.
Wow, I never thought I'd see two people connect in any meaningful way over youtube comments. This is kinda like finding a diamond ring in the trash. The Bouncing Souls really are an inspirational band. There's something about them that always gives off good vibes.
My biggest love to the Bouncing Souls!!!
Cheeerzzzz from Indonesia
Tinggal di kota mana mba
In jersey everybody loves these guys. We all go see there shows when they come back to their home town :)
They are just a great band that have stood the test of time.
Takes back to 1999. So much fun. Great days.
Saw this band years ago and then got to see them on their anniversary tour a few years ago with my sons young band...priceless
Thanx for keeping punk rock alive! keep us updated on when you start recording and touring!!!You are light years ahead of the world ,so keep working hard, you can do anything you want (as you already know)... Maybe you can get to be the first punk performance on Mars? Anyway Thanx for putting your music out there., that takes guts!!! oi,oi oi
Heeeey Epitaph!! You need more bands like this!!! Good times 💔♥️🖤
this song always made me think about my dad.
❤️🙏🏻
i grew up loving this song after i heard it in the west 49 2003-2004 flow skate video
Epic song and epic band.
Seeing 'em today at MrSmalls !!!! 5th time seeing the Souls, so stoked!
Haven't listened to them since I was 9 or 10. Used to have Summer Vacation on CD for my walkman and played it on repeat.
Truly an incredible song!
yesterday i discovered bouncing souls.
yesterday was a good day
i love the bouncing souls.
This song takes makes me all nostalgic and think of high school!
"Who I am, who I was, and who I want to be....."

Because it's from Jersey ;)
@@torreylong7436 We always need another reminder.
Thank you Burnout 3 for introducing me to this awesome band!
these guys still alive? their albums are the bomb. energy and emotions
This song breaks open the heart of anyone who has been let down by someone they idolised once.
That or maybe someone who decided to leave everything behind and do better. This song honestly makes me think of my cousin who passed away a year ago. Introduced me to Punk rock. Decided to leave the "punk" life behind and live in the real world to better himself
bouncing souls one of my favorites and this is the first time i've heard this song doesn't disappoint
Feb 3rd @ The Vallarium in Knoxville TN, CANT FUKIN WAIT!!!

My 12yr old used his Christmas $ to buy his 1st pair of Docs. They just arrived today. So we're celebrating.
7 years ago today i heard this song.. and i was just a kid dreaming for heroes
Hey, where have you gone?
You used to be the one!!!
Me encanta y siempre me encantará está song :')
it was today for me, I discovered the bouncing souls
today is also a great day
I remember hearing song from the amp punk magazine cd back in 2004
We all go to there shows 6 so far and hopefully many more let's hear it for true believers
Anchors Aweigh is one of their best albums!!

Here! Waiting to see the bouncing souls solo because everyone backed out. I listened to this song again and decided to go anyway.
Punk will live.
@Punkrockbatman I HAVE a bouncing soul....and it bounces to this band and other punkrock ^_^
I think theirs was the best show I've ever been in my life... better than nofx's... Bouncing souls, no one can beat them!
@SugarHeadProductions how was it man im gonna see em toninght in houston
awesome song
Epitaph needs more bands like this!
Jersey style all day!! ✊
Dark panda shut up
Yeah.
“Who I am, Who I was, Who I want to be.”
Timeless message
It hurts my soul to be bouncing around this world. I’m home now. Will I ever feel, home
Right on Cam... In the end, it's all a question of heart... But I still believe there are a few things, that truly belong to me.
Oh good memories at 2006 warped tour :)
@TheHairsprayfan1 If you're referring to 0:23 hes wearing a fred perry jacket mate.
@rkufi obviously u werent there for pennywise, flogging, the bouncing souls, and many more greats for early warped tours.. when they were good..
@restrictionsband are you kidding there are other genres in far worse situations than punk. there will always be punk bands in the future keeping the torch alive dont you worry, its the blues and funk genres that need to be worried, they're unfortunately dead RIP....but punk will survive it might be crappy pop punk like green day but at least punk has made it through these tough times!! :)
this was my very first ringtone. cheers BS
Sounds kinda like Falling in Reverse meets Social Distortion. Good Stuff.
This song and bro hymn give me the same feeling
Ohhh, this gets me.
Are you kidding me? I'm going to fucking RAISE my kids on this stuff!
hmmmm came out day before my birthday :D
@whenindoubt20 i saw them too, but not in florida, fucking great show.
@TheFunnelWebb you from around the chitown area?
Can't beat the souls...you know you are getting old when you can say you walked down the wedding isle to True Believers.....
Yay I miss the Warp Tours!
for a long long long time
im going to there concert they are touring with nofx!!!!
Chingona la rola!!2019
Hey hey where have gone
@lordchew109 Love that song XD
@monzione this is..punk??.. I was thinking that it is The Exploited, GG Allin, Casualties..lol
Hey, where did it go
around 1:13 the chord progression sounds just like the opening to Against Me's High Pressure low
@satanicpunker182 or them with NOFX was pretty badass
kinda sad that this kind of music is dead :(
Song seems ro talk about bands selling out, but they also wear big business band hoodies,Sick of it All etc .. confusing.... great band though,and people,met them a few times in leeds and London
who i am .. who i was .. who i wana be!
Love it🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶✔✔✔✔
Too bad Warp Tour blew them up... they were, still are, an awesome band that disappeared after such a following before that tour come along...
Why doesn't this have more views?!?
@SugarHeadProductions how was it man
Ethnopluralism. Hope it will go on.
Hope my bouncing soul is with them now.
❤
