Got to see you guys earlier this Year in Indy with Dispatch and G love. Loved it. Would see you guys again in a heartbeat if the opportunity comes to fruition again
Before anyone rips these guys, I suggest they spend at least 45 minutes at one of their concerts. One of the most positive musical influences touring today. OAR has followed the business pattern of Jimmy Buffet in regards to how they market themselves. In order to do this, you have to be a great bunch of musicians and they definitely meet that requirement.
I remember watching this on Vh1 every Saturday morning while the song was on...I have been jamming to this since its release date... brings back so much memories. 2018 and still loving it!
One of the best bands around, period. If you have not seen them live, you are missing out. As good as they are recorded, the shows will knock your socks off.
My mom and dad have raised me on OAR for the longest time i have been to about 6 OAR concerts and my mom has been to about 14. Its our favorite band. Like you said they are amazing live! during one concert at red rocks that i went to Richie Sambora came onstage! i only remember about 4 of the concerts i have been to because im 14 and was super young when my parents brought me to concerts but still they are amazing!
You are correct sir. I've seen them live at least 15 times. Epic live performances man they have come along way from the 100 people shows at Orlando house of blues.
I might be the only person from the hood that listens and loves this song. It used to come on on the late night/early mornings when VH1 played videos and I had to take my daughter to school... Great memories 😢
I remember getting up early when I was a kid/young teen JUST to watch VH1's music videos and that's how I discovered this song and Shattered. Good times. Also brings back so much freaking nostalgia from my life then.
because they never sold out and gave up their rights to the record labels. they were more independent and had more control so they got a lot less exposure.
How did this song not ever become a top 40 hit? It has hooks all over it. A rock tune with enough funk to actually be able to dance to. Well done gents(OAR)
This was my jam when I was in high school. KS95 in the Twin Cities played this A LOT back in the Spring/Summer of '09 and heard it frequently in my old Acclaim(my first car). Hearing this takes me back to the summer of '09 cruising the streets of my hometown Red Wing, MN in the Acclaim. Good times!
This is so crazy, I bought Goo Goo Dolls tickets. OAR, plus Fitz and the Tantrums are opening, so I'm going back and listening. Now I'm even more excited for the concert!!!
I don't remember how many years ago it was but back when I used to go this summer camp there was this one year where it rained for 3 weeks straight. I remember being soaked through my clothes and getting back to the cabin with a friend of mine, and he went over to his ipod and started looking through his songs. He finally settled on this song and it made me feel lkke I didn't care about the rain for a while. I just wanted to say thanks O.A.R. for making this song
i remember listening to this song when i was in second grade when my sister would put vh1 top 20 music countdown or something. i remember the sun would peek through the curtains and the air was so crisp^^ and when we would wait in the mornings of school, we would just watch our breaths because it was fun lmao. im 16 now and i moved to the other side of the city, but the air is thick and i go to school before the sun comes up so i never get to see the puffs of my breath or the sun slowly rise from the mountains, and morning car rides don't feel like a new day anymore but just another place to get 10 more minutes of sleep.
Back when every weekend they had over 100,000 people at every race. Nascar has dropped so much lol. The commercial with this song in it was the best one and was so perfect for NASCAR
I saw these guys in Charlotte, NC. a couple years ago. Music was great but lead man seemed a bit tired and just getting through...I get pumped to music that is near and dear to my heart but didn't feel the same from him. He seemed obviously tired from a long road of live events. I had a great time in spite of his disconnection.
Modern and contemporary music changes drastically when a generation changes. This was at the tail end if a generation and the beginning of a new one. Great song bad timing for the generation.
I heard this song playing tonight at a steakhouse, and I knew I had to just look it up. I remember hearing it many years ago, but never knew who it was by. Now "This Town" is all about that One Direction kid, and that is NOT at all like this song!
NGL I've never seen the official music video for this until right now and it definitely didn't disappoint at all! Dare I say that it healed my current woes? Cause to say anything less then that would be a total bold faced lie TBH.

i don't know them or like them but i'm gonna see them soon.
I will never forget the 08’ College World Series bc of this song being the theme song. This should forever be the song.
This song brings memories of the College World Series, it should be it's official song.
Yes, perfect song for almost anything
Will forever bring back memories of TFAS summer 2009. Great song.
Reminds me of 2008 CWS Fresno State Cinderella Season
Pure fiyyyahhh
I might be the only person from the hood that listens and loves this song. It used to come on on the late night/early mornings when VH1 played videos and I had to take my daughter to school... Great memories 😢

Same here so early morning before go to school everyday
No you are not lol it’s like we all have the same memory of how we discovered it lol
Just got back from Omaha, and proud to report that this song is still played plenty during the College World Series! Congrats Vols on the 2024 title!
Ik it was doped
Thomas S. Wootton High
Rockville, Maryland!
I've never met anyone who knew of this song, but every time I play it for people they say they love it... So why didn't this get more famous?!
because they never sold out and gave up their rights to the record labels. they were more independent and had more control so they got a lot less exposure.
Still listening in 2022.
2024 I’ll be 59 and I still listening to O- A -R love it ❤
The song that got me into OAR. Best band ever!
Me too! This Town was the song and now I'm a HUGE fan!!!
Wow, best song ever
Same, my older brother is the one who really got me into them
Epic intro
2009 NCAA World Series - iconic song
under rated song
Very. The band as a whole is.
Soo underrated
NASCAR Nationwide Series intro!!! LOVE THIS SONG! Even all these years later 😎
Yes, it is a Nascar song. Was their best commercial ever that had this song
How did this song not ever become a top 40 hit? It has hooks all over it. A rock tune with enough funk to actually be able to dance to. Well done gents(OAR)
Well it did make the Adult Top 40, where it peaked at number 17 if that counts.
very very very very underrated song
CWS should bring this song back
You know it’s the College World Series if this song is playing.
Facts! Just heard it on the intro and all the feels flooded back!
That’s what brought me here lol
Perfect song, perfect band
THIS SONG MAKES ME SO HAPPY

❤❤❤
I first heard of OAR in Iraq. Thank goodness my buddy turned me on to these guys. I still like them after 2007, 2008, and 2009.
I will forever love this song. 💜💜💜
reminds me of the baseball college world series talk about nostalgia
"I don't want it to be the way they wanted!!!" LOVE this song
This is so crazy, I bought Goo Goo Dolls tickets. OAR, plus Fitz and the Tantrums are opening, so I'm going back and listening. Now I'm even more excited for the concert!!!
Why the hell did ESPN quit playing this for CWS?
They’re playing it this year
O.A.R. you are the best group of the late 2000's. So many amazing songs :D
add early and mid 2000s to that as well..... :)
SEEING O.A.R. TONIGHT PUMPED!
Damn, this song takes me back.
Super pumped i saw this when you were at light up night in Pittsburgh. Totally crushed it!
Just heard this song today in a coffee shop. Fantastic
Joel McGuiness this is a coffee shop esque song. Actually, lots of stores tbh
This song still kicks ass in 2023
Yes, totally a motorsports and car show song lol
Can’t wait to see OAR at Blossom Music Center Aug 2023🎼🎸🎤
Nice, they are probably excellent live
I don't remember how many years ago it was but back when I used to go this summer camp there was this one year where it rained for 3 weeks straight.

Throwback ❤️
Spent 2 hours trying to find this song. All I knew was the sound of the guitar!!😂
LEGENDARY!!!! ❤️
After so long……with only this town this city as the only lyrics I had….I FOUND IT 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 😭 😭 😭
John Kasich approves of this message 👍🏻
i remember listening to this song when i was in second grade when my sister would put vh1 top 20 music countdown or something. i remember the sun would peek through the curtains and the air was so crisp^^ and when we would wait in the mornings of school, we would just watch our breaths because it was fun lmao. im 16 now and i moved to the other side of the city, but the air is thick and i go to school before the sun comes up so i never get to see the puffs of my breath or the sun slowly rise from the mountains, and morning car rides don't feel like a new day anymore but just another place to get 10 more minutes of sleep.
omg a person my age that likes OAR, and is relatable. lets be friends 😂
You ever consider writing song lyrics? Consider it.
Thank you for sharing... It was so great to live that memory with you.
I ❤ you no matter what song!!!!
2008 NASCAR race day love this song.
Back when every weekend they had over 100,000 people at every race. Nascar has dropped so much lol. The commercial with this song in it was the best one and was so perfect for NASCAR
@@NewEnglandPatriotsfan been a big difference since 2008. The commercial with is song with nascar was fire. I'll never forget seeing it on tv
@@Racing77Moose. Yes that was the best commercial ever for NASCAR
@@NewEnglandPatriotsfan yes it was.
Omg I haven’t heard this song in yearssssss so nostalgic ❤
This is the anthem of all true Braves kings
Memories galore😍
The true anthem of Omaha, and Division I college ball!
Bro every game in my collegiate career at least one guy had the hook as their walk up
This will allways be one of my favorite songs!
All OAR songs are awesome! Takes me back to better times.
Back in 2022!
I saw these guys in Charlotte, NC. a couple years ago. Music was great but lead man seemed a
bit tired and just getting through...I get pumped to music that is near
and dear to my heart but didn't feel the same from him. He seemed obviously tired from a long road of live events. I had a great time in spite of his disconnection.
First day Im hearing this group.
One 🐥 in Australia 🇦🇺
Man I miss your music so much
If you’re reading this, it means you like this song!
NASCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!
Theres nothing like an O.A.R. performance.
This reminds me of soooo many good memories. And people that i'll never see again. It's sad really.
This was once the college World Series theme song
Ew
still kinda is
The best CW SERIES song ever
Fresno State won that series as the Cinderella Team when they used this,Go Dogs
LSU 2009 CWS only reason i know this song good memories
Just love this song ♥♥♥♥
Anyone remember the Braves intro videos with this?
Oh my god this reminds me so much of jv baseball in freshman year... those were some of the greatest times I've had
+Alex O'Boyle It was the 'theme' song to the ESPN coverage of the College Baseball World Series in Omaha in 2008 or 2009.
+Curt Stimpson AND they played the opening ceremony concert the night before the CWS began.
Curt Stimpson Good times huh
+Alex O'Boyle The good times are what it's all about.
+Curt Stimpson CWS 2008
Good song
It is a good catchy song.
I really like how they use some saxophone in their music! I think it makes it sound really cool!
I love this song. Ahhh.
this needs more views!
Great song!
Is it just me or is every one of the guys in this band freakin gorgeous? And Marc Roberge is a Rock God!
So awesome LIVE
I hear this fairly often in Kohl's, which is where I first discovered it and the band.
Como essa música não fez muito sucesso?? Eu achei ela a anos e adorei e nunca esqueço
Modern and contemporary music changes drastically when a generation changes. This was at the tail end if a generation and the beginning of a new one. Great song bad timing for the generation.

That's a good description. The guitar sound is stylistically similar, and the sax smacks of ska as well.
If they don't open every concert with this, they're crazy.
Yes totally their best song ever
NGL I've never seen the official music video for this until right now and it definitely didn't disappoint at all! Dare I say that it healed my current woes? Cause to say anything less then that would be a total bold faced lie TBH.
I just rediscovered this song because of an old Myspace survey I did in 2009. I had completely forgotten about it!
Still one of the best jams in 2020.
Pretty awesome....
love this song!!
Love these guys!!!!
This song totally reminds me of the Charlotte 49ers
Always think of UGA football in Athens when I hear OAR and this song In particular!!!
I think of the 2010 CWS. GAMECOCKS
College World Series!!
Reminds me of reshman year in highschool when all I did was watch college baseball and that's all I ever wanted to do was play professionally...
Alex O'Boyle how'd it go? how far are you going with baseball?
awesome song
The fact that this song doesn't have more views kinda shocks me
definitely
