Finally a punk rock/pop punk song for the married w/ kids generation. I’m 31 and married with 2 little girls. I still love this music but can’t relate to the breakup or stay out all night with your friends lyrical content that pervades the pop punk genre. This song hit home and I love it.
Couldn’t agree more. Just stumbled upon this song and love it. Used to be in a pop punk band years ago and now married with 4 kids. During the pandemic I wrote punk songs for my kids and other young parents. Call it Pop Punk Jesus. If you get a chance check it out: ua-cam.com/play/OLAK5uy_nUn2fMpEqIgR_gGj-J0p39qQ5lfEFqCIU.html
yeah, im new to thps, when I got the game and heard this song, I thought it was from the original game. I wanted to put it in my playlist and i was suprised that this is only 2 years old. EDIT: it probably helped that I remembered the name of the band because they had a song in ssx3 (one of the best games on the ps2)
As a now 35 year old man with pregnant wife and happy life (and still listening to mxpx), this song and video is actually very touching - ‘I’m not crying, you’re crying!’
43 with a kid in college. They were playing local shows and were still in high school at central Kitsap when I started listening. You could get their albums at the Bible book store back then haha
you dont hear this type of music anymore on the radio...this type were the soundtrack of my youth days, and im glad there are still some bands that still do what they do. so thanks MxPx, its nice to remember those days just by listening to kick ass music like this.
I'm 37 now, which isn't old, but when I started listening to MXPX, I would have said it was. Thank you for this video- I'm in tears. We all gotta grow up sometime.
Oh tony I’m 37 and your comment is 2 years old it’s almost the halfway point brother but you never have to grow up I never did and I’m a widower with 3 kids my oldest is 14 stay safe and stay frosty and stay young at heart
Damn MXPX... this song still brings all the feels. It causes me to remember my first anniversary with my wife, where we visited the Pacific northwest and happened to pass thru Bremerton by accident...then after only a few years moving from the west coast to the east coast. We truly drove all night until we got to the rocky mountains. And then the next day, in the early morning, we left for several years while my wife an baby still asleep in the bAck of the car during the summer of 2011. We longed for those mountains as we left. And this song brings back those memories strongly. Now that I've returned to the west, it's even more meaningful now. Thank you for this song and for the relevant impact on my life and my family... I even sing it to my kids as they go to sleep at night. We are starting into see blues skies, finally. It means a lot. TAKE CARE.!
I'M REALLY SORRY THIS COMMENT IS SO LONG: It's been a long ride with MxPx, growing up with them. Albums and songs I loved, some I liked less. The DIY period, the “sell out” period, the return to roots period. All different, but all great because it got MxPx to where they are today - making gems like this. It's weird watching the video and looking back 25+ years into my own life - amazing how 3 minutes of video and this song can resonate with what it was like growing up for so many years. For thousands of hours - being an outcast in junior high and high school, then college - driving to and from hundreds shows played by my own band, sleeping in vans and on motel floors, MxPx was so often the soundtrack and the music I escaped with in my headphones. Then when the time came to move on and "get a real job" and be an adult, at 35 years old, I sometimes feel like that same outcast. But this music is still there for me like it was 20 years ago. I can still remember being 16 and listening to Life in General on cassette for the first time ever when my friend lent me his portable tape player on a camp bus trip that was 2 hours long. I listened to the whole tape/whole album 4 times over each way on the trip. I was hooked and my life would forever change. This song and video made me cry. Thanks for everything, MxPx.
Thanks for your long comment. I even done it.)) I am was not same fan for so long, but also many! time.. It's about from the 2003 and I remember the Let It Happen Deluxe Edition CD/DVD that I was bought in the preorder on the Interpunk with the MxPx fingerboard))) and now I am walking on the same roads at weekends and this really warm memories.
Quoth the Raven i totally get u man! And don’t worry, a long message doesn’t have to be necessarily boring, yours is totally true and I’m also sure that most of us, (30’s punk rock listeners and above) understand how this video and song touched you, cuz essentially, we feel the same! Regards from Brazil bro!
I didn't find MXPX; they found me. In the year 2012, I was 12 years old. My dad took my older brother to buy CDs at a music store. My dad told me to pick one, but I honestly didn't have a preference for any music genre. Among the shelves of albums, one in particular caught my attention because of the illustration of Pokinatcha, and it was the album 'Ten Years and Running.' I got home, listened to it, and since that day, I haven't stopped listening to MXPX. Almost 22 years later, I'm still here, just like the first day, listening to songs that take me back to my adolescence. Greetings from Guatemala!
How beautiful is this song. It causes a mixture of various feelings: nostalgia, hope, happiness and resilience. I can say that this song changed my life. I came out of the bottom of my sadness and depression. Thank you very much MxPx.
Been in love with this band ever since I discovered them in 2016. One of the best underrated West Coast punk rock bands in the world. I have numerous CD's which I'm listening to right now. Rock On boys!!
I've been following you guys since I was 14 years old way back in the Christian Punk Rawk scene. Now I'm 35 and have a wife and 2 kids and it's be a great ride and I'm enjoying still listening to you through it all. Thanks guys! Excited to indulge in the new album and have my 3 year old get a little taste of my teenage years!
This song makes me feel old and young at the same time. I listened to these guys when I was in in my teens, being in my 30s now I haven't really changed much outside of the normal growing up responsibilities. Life changes but stays the same. I still love this kind of music and have changed over the years in my taste in music, but this kind of song just hits home.
This song feels like a culmination of my youth. Unfortunately my two skate buddies that introduced me to MxPx aren’t with us anymore, but they’re alive every time I listen.
Man, my son is closing in on the age I was when I first heard MXPX as a 15 year old young punk. Played this song for him today and he's already heard on it Tony Hawk he said. Then we played the classics. Bremerton and Punk Rawk
This song really takes me back! I'm now about to turn 33, married with 2 children. I know it's not the best feeling, but this song, kind of reminds me that my happiest days are behind me now. That youth, rage and daredevil traits are no longer with me, and sometimes I really miss it, just doing what I wanna do, you know? Great song anyway!!
Reading through the comments it seems like MxPx has the pretty solid community of like minded folks. I found them when I was 13 or so getting into punk because of my friends. They didn’t curse and I liked that. Their music expressed what I couldn’t. I was good in school but not too cool, and not hard enough to fit in with the punk crowd. But the music was fast and cool and made me feel that way too. I stuck with them through high school, got my punk head belt buckle when it showed up on before everything and after, listened to secret weapon when I got my wisdom teeth out, went to college, bonded with other relatively uncool smart kids over mxpx, got a degree, had some kids. Found this song probably about 5-10 years after I really got too busy chasing my career to follow music anymore, and it seems like I have the same story as a lot of folks on here. Their music and videos still fit me, and make me feel as cool as they used to do. It's good to be back. Maybe i'll dig out my old buckle. The young middle age guy studying and still loving punk rock in the video 👌🏻
I never did get to see on of their shows. I always wanted to, but they had a knack for scheduling them right over my calculus tests… Next time you’re in SLC I’m there!
Well someone is cutting onions in this room... WTF This hit me in so many levels. MXPX helped me through school, life, and love. Damn Here I am at age 30 enjoying their tunes more than ever. Thank you guys for writing so many soundtracks to my life. #stillrunning
2006 the first time i hear songs from mxpx, when i was in senior high school, until now when i was married and become a father.. You're the best guys ,i'm your fans from indonesian
Todd Osterhout that's awesome man, congrats! My wife's parents were that age when they had her and they're so amazing and insightful. Best of luck to you!
I just first heard about MxPx after seeing an episode of Fixer Upper on HGTV with Mike Herrera and his wife Holli. I googled him just to check out his music. Love it!
First time I saw mxpx was 1999 the Electric Factory in Philadelphia Pennsylvania it was my first Punk show and I'm thankful for this band everyday since
I turned 29 today, and man has it been a hell of a ride. I've joined the air force, been around the world twice, had a lot of ups and downs, but I'm ready to see what else life has in store for me. Let's keep riding! The Rockies aren't too far from here.... here's to the future!
I grew up listening to the early days of this band as my stepdad played there tunes constantly in the car on the way to school and everywhere in between. Now hes gone, but I realize how proud, and grateful I am to have had someone like him as my father figure
Conheci Mxpx em 2003 quando eu tinha 17 anos, e hoje tenho 32 , estou casado e tenho uma bebê de 1 ano, Maria Clara, e continuo escutando até hoje. Minha banda favorita.
One, two, three, go About the time that I turned fourteen I got a job doin' landscaping Those days were long and my old boss was mean About the time that I turned sixteen I got a car and no place to be I'd fill up the tank and drive out to the sea The Rockies ain't too far from here if we drive all night The cold air will do you well in the mountain morning light So, let's ride Let's ride on through the rain Come on and take me anywhere That you wanna be So, let's ride By the time that I turned nineteen I'd seen so much, yet I was still green It's taken me a time or two to learn the things I watched you do for me There I was at twenty-nine I can't believe I'm still alive Though it was never easy, yeah, you and me were born to survive The Rockies ain't too far from here if we drive all night The cold air will do you well in the mountain morning light So, let's ride That was my escape A way to change the tape That was playin', that was playin' in my head The Rockies ain't too far from here if we drive all night The cold air will do you well in the mountain morning light So, let's ride Let's ride on through the rain Come on and take me anywhere That you wanna be Let's ride, Let's ride Let's follow the skyline And when we make it to the other side We'll find all the bluest skies
I had stopped keeping up with MxPx around 2003 or so. I pulled up this song and video for the first time with my 4-month-old daughter while at home. It made her smile... and it made me cry happy tears. I'm a renewed man and fan.
Remember seeing you guys at the Palace in Hollywood in '96 with Homegrown opening for you. I'm 50 now and still jam with you..Can't wait to see you live again!
Thank you once again for this I really needed thank you again. I am one man who his life is fed by MxPx. No so many in my city listen to you but me since several years and I will do so until I die. Thank you so very much MxPx. MxPx 4 Eternity.
A couple days ago, I was showing my daughter picture of my college days and realized in almost every one I was wearing my MxPx t-shirts. Now if only Tomfest would start back up.
This is a good song. I keep coming back to it over and over. It makes me feel bad that not very many bands are still making music like this. My kids and I started listening to MXPX many years ago but now they are all grown so when I listen to them now it makes me feel sad that life has changed so much. We used to have a family rock band and played pop punk at a lot at concert venues all around the state and now my grandkids have started playing it.
I'm just here, along with a bunch of others in their mid 30's who have been there since the beginning, just to say we're old now. I'll listen to this over any new band any day.
This song/video got me in the feels. I grew up on MxPx (first CD I ever bought). I love this band and the spirit of their music. I love that they released this album on their terms! Amazing song! Can't wait to hear the rest of the album.
Band of my life! In march 2006 as I was skiing off piste in Kosovo mountains, I got hit by an avalanche that carried me away 200 meters and buried me alive. During those moments under the snow I had headphones where MXPX - Wrecking hotel rooms was still playing. After 2 minutes help came from my two fellow skiers and I came out alive
my favorite bands keep (or kept) putting out good music and im not stuck listening to only their first 2 records... glad MXPX is in that catagory for me
Awesome song. Reminds me of my younger years and driving my '72 manual Chevy Chevette through out the upstate New York & the Berkshires, from Long Island to Boston, and other random locations just to not be home. Even now as I am almost 50 I still have that wanderlust. Thanks guys for capturing that feeling in a song. Don't stop.
Glad they're still around! Let It Happen was the first punk cd I ever bought when I was 15, here I am 33 still punk Lol I like the video too! Keep going
Still sounds great. Lots of great memories from their music. I still have the cassette jacket from Pokinatcha signed by Mike, Tom and Yuri when I met them at a show they did at a tiny club back in the 90's. Glad you're still doing it boys, rock on!
Just like THPS did for me years ago, I again am met with a song I grew to love because of a love for skating. A passion that’s been with me since I was a kid twenty years ago. The magic of the culture is, everything seems suspended in time. My first board, my cousins first trick, the nights we stayed up all night playing this game that bonded us and had us rolling. I had the job for f filming my cousin because I couldn’t land any tricks. We loved everything about being there and participating in something we had to figure out. To this day, I still feel like that kid. Let’s kick out the jams! Get on your board! Nothing but joy on the other side! -RIP Dylan Collier-
Oh man I haven't heard MXPX in like 9 or 10 years 😱 I had no idea they were still making music and rocking shows! It gives me goosebumps hearing this and makes me smile seeing that they're still making music 🤘🏻
Thanks guys for such a beatiful video that illustrates for many us the journey of growing as adults, facing challenges, going on different stages of maturity and foremost as we continue this path, with this video you let us know that you are walking along with us by giving a track to listen and enjoy through this process. Thank you
Almost all of the bands I listen to now, are the exact same ones I were listening to in high school back from '93 to '97. Its not because I haven't tried listening to new bands. It's just that the sound is gone it seems........Until you hear another MXPX album! Then, there it is again. That amazing sound that I never thought I would hear again with new, refreshing songs. I'm actually heading to see Face to Face tonight in Cincinnati. Thanks to all of these great bands that ALL bring back so many memories from my youth, I can continue to expect more to come. And that's a great thing. In and of itself. RIP Tony Sly.
This song has made a profound impact on my life. I’ve found it thanks to THPS 1+2 and it always reminds me of a recently passed friend who loved his rides and his escape. Thank you MXPX for the wonderful song and memories that will always live in my head because of it. Gone too soon, fly high buddy.
I saw allister play in a park in Columbus, Nebraska when the venue cancelled the show. So surreal to still see them pop up on occasion. Think they're a major under appreciated part of pop punk history
I'm 58, from Keyser WV, been my favorite band since there Teenage Politics,,,keep Rockin man... I was there n the 70s when Punk started!!...lol... ✌& 💓
Randomly found this video and song...Holy crap!! New fan right here...Been listening to punk for 30 plus years...Video had me legit in tears by the end...Good stuff🤘
chilling with my brother in his studio with a cup of coffee and cigarettes after school in 2009 listening to punk / pop punk playlist ... ah man wish i could go back
i've been listening to Mxpx since i was 13... now im 38, its been a looooong ride, an awesome ride
Damn. Me too.
Exactly the same timeline as you.
I’m just chillin in the house hearing the kids play outside and I can’t believe that I’m adulting.
Hi mate! Listen me on my channel!
Same bro. Saw them live so many times as a kid. Would love to see them again on tour.
Same dude! What a ride
They age like a fine wine! 💪🏽
A Telecaster on one side and a Les Paul on the other one: Perfect Punk Rock Tone!
Hola Tio Guitar! Me alegra saber que escuche bandas como Mxpx, debería un dia hablar de Mxpx en en canal, saludos desde Chile, blessing!
Finally a punk rock/pop punk song for the married w/ kids generation. I’m 31 and married with 2 little girls. I still love this music but can’t relate to the breakup or stay out all night with your friends lyrical content that pervades the pop punk genre. This song hit home and I love it.
I know this is an old comment, but another great "aging punk rockers" song is Falling Apart by Lagwagon
Couldn’t agree more. Just stumbled upon this song and love it. Used to be in a pop punk band years ago and now married with 4 kids. During the pandemic I wrote punk songs for my kids and other young parents. Call it Pop Punk Jesus. If you get a chance check it out: ua-cam.com/play/OLAK5uy_nUn2fMpEqIgR_gGj-J0p39qQ5lfEFqCIU.html
All those nights jumping in the car at 17 with a box of sodas to get over to a friend's house for a joy ride. Plus this hometown band really connects.
shit im 6 years too late, but this never hit me till I had a kid, seeing the kid at the end in the crib.. crazy stuff
Glad this is gonna be in THPS 1+2 Remaster! sounds like something that would have been in the original games!
Liev
It fits so well
All the non original songs fit in the game so well
Fits in perfectly. Finally played it a couple nights ago and was stoked to hear it.
yeah, im new to thps, when I got the game and heard this song, I thought it was from the original game. I wanted to put it in my playlist and i was suprised that this is only 2 years old. EDIT: it probably helped that I remembered the name of the band because they had a song in ssx3 (one of the best games on the ps2)
As a now 35 year old man with pregnant wife and happy life (and still listening to mxpx), this song and video is actually very touching - ‘I’m not crying, you’re crying!’
martinwilko I will be turning 35 next month!! Heck yeah!! God bless you!! Here’s to a happy life!! Cheers!! 🍻
37 here. Introduction to MxPx was Teenage Politics.
I'm 51. Great Forgetting Sarah Marshall reference!!! ❤
43 with a kid in college. They were playing local shows and were still in high school at central Kitsap when I started listening. You could get their albums at the Bible book store back then haha
Same here dude. Good luck with the kid. It's a killer ride :)
you dont hear this type of music anymore on the radio...this type were the soundtrack of my youth days, and im glad there are still some bands that still do what they do. so thanks MxPx, its nice to remember those days just by listening to kick ass music like this.
Thank you!
I'm 37 now, which isn't old, but when I started listening to MXPX, I would have said it was. Thank you for this video- I'm in tears. We all gotta grow up sometime.
Right?!?
No
Oh tony I’m 37 and your comment is 2 years old it’s almost the halfway point brother but you never have to grow up I never did and I’m a widower with 3 kids my oldest is 14 stay safe and stay frosty and stay young at heart
dito with 36! ouch I can't be so old...
You took the words out of my mouth.
Signed,
38 and still listening to MXPX.
Damn MXPX... this song still brings all the feels. It causes me to remember my first anniversary with my wife, where we visited the Pacific northwest and happened to pass thru Bremerton by accident...then after only a few years moving from the west coast to the east coast.

And this song brings back those memories strongly. Now that I've returned to the west, it's even more meaningful now. Thank you for this song and for the relevant impact on my life and my family... I even sing it to my kids as they go to sleep at night. We are starting into see blues skies, finally. It means a lot. TAKE CARE.!

I'M REALLY SORRY THIS COMMENT IS SO LONG: It's been a long ride with MxPx, growing up with them. Albums and songs I loved, some I liked less.

Pretty much my exact story bud. I couldn't believe how emotional this video made me.
Thanks for your long comment. I even done it.)) I am was not same fan for so long, but also many! time.. It's about from the 2003 and I remember the Let It Happen Deluxe Edition CD/DVD that I was bought in the preorder on the Interpunk with the MxPx fingerboard))) and now I am walking on the same roads at weekends and this really warm memories.
Quoth the Raven i totally get u man!

Regards from Brazil bro!
Yes, this 👆. Mxpx is always there, after work, in the garage, in my headphones or on road trips. My life doesn’t go with out them.
Mxpx and allister
I listened to this while I was riding through the rain with my dad on our motorcycles. I couldn't stop crying for probably half an hour.
WHO'S STILL LISTENING TO MXPX in 2018???
ME!!!
MXPX 4 LIFE 🤘🤘🤘
Jonathan Bérubé 🤘🤘🤘
4 life!!
Me too
ME!!!!
Pretty SOLID song!!!

Hello from Russia,friend. 😊
MXPX was the first punk band I ever saw live. Will never forget it. Was 95-96. Keep going lads!
Been listening to them since I was 13 now I'm 40... still love this stuff!
I just heard about this band because someone thought I was the singer because I have the same name and have a mariners pic
MxPx FOR LIFE!!!
Christofer Tapiheru take back punk! Enough of this radio friendly pop for the masses. Give em something with heart
Christofer Tapiheru Mantap 👍👍
How beautiful is this song. It causes a mixture of various feelings: nostalgia, hope, happiness and resilience. I can say that this song changed my life. I came out of the bottom of my sadness and depression. Thank you very much MxPx.
Still listening in 2039 and remembering with nostalgia the return of Tony Hawk's games with Pro Skater 1+2 in 2020
Yesssiiirrr, good throwback vibes all dayyy ⛽🙏🏾
Its been 20 years this song is still good in the 30's .
I feel something special for this band! You are part of my life.
Still remember being a kid and finding an MXPX album randomly at my local Christian music store. Been a fan ever since
Been in love with this band ever since I discovered them in 2016.
One of the best underrated West Coast punk rock bands in the world.
I have numerous CD's which I'm listening to right now. Rock On boys!!
I've been following you guys since I was 14 years old way back in the Christian Punk Rawk scene. Now I'm 35 and have a wife and 2 kids and it's be a great ride and I'm enjoying still listening to you through it all. Thanks guys! Excited to indulge in the new album and have my 3 year old get a little taste of my teenage years!
Me too Nick!! Me too!
Crazy how fast the years go by!
Me too and my 10 year old loves them now too! She was mad that I didn't take her to the last show.
Same here saw them in my teens, 20s, just need to in my 30s! Met them at warped tour over 10 years ago and they were awesome!
Christian Rawk, not rock. Love it! Back when I had to go to a christian bookstore to purchase the new Slick Shoes and MXPX albums!!
i am 14 and i love this stuff
MXPX is aged wine. And a video shot inside a landscape storage bin will win my heart any day. Love this.
Hahaha. Nobody has ever called that out before. Big props!
This song makes me feel old and young at the same time. I listened to these guys when I was in in my teens, being in my 30s now I haven't really changed much outside of the normal growing up responsibilities. Life changes but stays the same. I still love this kind of music and have changed over the years in my taste in music, but this kind of song just hits home.
This song feels like a culmination of my youth. Unfortunately my two skate buddies that introduced me to MxPx aren’t with us anymore, but they’re alive every time I listen.
A TODA ESA GENERACION YA ESTAMOS VIEJOS PERO EL PUNK ROCK SIGUE EN NUESTRAS VENAS Y EN NUESTROS HIJOS
After 20 years of being a fan, this is exactly what I want to hear from MxPx.
I play this song for my 7 month old daughter everyday. Thank you guys.
It's not often that an already successful band makes a new most popular song 25 years into their career. What a banger!
im 32 and i been listen to mxpx since i was 15. This video is just what i wanted for a long time.
Man, my son is closing in on the age I was when I first heard MXPX as a 15 year old young punk. Played this song for him today and he's already heard on it Tony Hawk he said. Then we played the classics. Bremerton and Punk Rawk
This song really takes me back! I'm now about to turn 33, married with 2 children. I know it's not the best feeling, but this song, kind of reminds me that my happiest days are behind me now. That youth, rage and daredevil traits are no longer with me, and sometimes I really miss it, just doing what I wanna do, you know?
Great song anyway!!
Reading through the comments it seems like MxPx has the pretty solid community of like minded folks. I found them when I was 13 or so getting into punk because of my friends.
They didn’t curse and I liked that. Their music expressed what I couldn’t. I was good in school but not too cool, and not hard enough to fit in with the punk crowd. But the music was fast and cool and made me feel that way too. I stuck with them through high school, got my punk head belt buckle when it showed up on before everything and after, listened to secret weapon when I got my wisdom teeth out, went to college, bonded with other relatively uncool smart kids over mxpx, got a degree, had some kids.

It's good to be back. Maybe i'll dig out my old buckle. The young middle age guy studying and still loving punk rock in the video 👌🏻
I never did get to see on of their shows. I always wanted to, but they had a knack for scheduling them right over my calculus tests…
Next time you’re in SLC I’m there!
saw them live yesterday, best day of my life
Well someone is cutting onions in this room... WTF This hit me in so many levels. MXPX helped me through school, life, and love. Damn Here I am at age 30 enjoying their tunes more than ever. Thank you guys for writing so many soundtracks to my life. #stillrunning
I’m 41 now. And now I play songs for my son....watching his eyes grow with wonder as mine did. Let’s ride.
So thoughtful. Been a fan since 1994. Glad they still put out the jams. Looking forward to this album.
2006 the first time i hear songs from mxpx, when i was in senior high school, until now when i was married and become a father.. You're the best guys ,i'm your fans from indonesian
Watching this just made me reflect on the last 15 years of my life. Just learned that I'm expecting my first little one too. Time flies man.
matto dude

I just first heard about MxPx after seeing an episode of Fixer Upper on HGTV with Mike Herrera and his wife Holli. I googled him just to check out his music. Love it!
Introduced to MXPX at 15 years young, 35 years young now... Still listening and love them today! Amazing lyrics and video. MXPX!!!
Saywha 82 20 years and running! I was 12 now 32
Alan McCool 18 years for me! Started listening to them in 2000 at the age of 14. \M/
Ha I was 15 also in OKC!! And also now 35!! Sweet!

Saywha 82 Same here dude. Its been a good ride
At my 29' born mi daughter, the part at 01:55 makes me cry, Thank you for this video- I'm in tears
MxPx relevant to me in my teens?- Yup!
MxPx relevant to me in my 20's?- Yup!
MxPx relevant to me in my 30's?- Yup!
Still listen to them daily.
Barely heard them now N I'm 35. One thing about hearning music is it can be 30 years old but it is still new to some.
Still relevant in my mid 40’s.
Полностью согласен!!!
100
been listening to MXPX since I was 14-15yrs & now I'm 40yrs. I still am listening to them & they're still relevant.
First time I saw mxpx was 1999 the Electric Factory in Philadelphia Pennsylvania it was my first Punk show and I'm thankful for this band everyday since
This video brought happiness to my ears and tears to my eyes.
mxpxboy77 yeah tears to my eyes.
Word!
mxpxboy77 👍👍👍👍
I turned 29 today, and man has it been a hell of a ride. I've joined the air force, been around the world twice, had a lot of ups and downs, but I'm ready to see what else life has in store for me. Let's keep riding! The Rockies aren't too far from here.... here's to the future!
This song since released has become my literal life story! Never related to a song more in my life!
I grew up listening to the early days of this band as my stepdad played there tunes constantly in the car on the way to school and everywhere in between. Now hes gone, but I realize how proud, and grateful I am to have had someone like him as my father figure
Conheci Mxpx em 2003 quando eu tinha 17 anos, e hoje tenho 32 , estou casado e tenho uma bebê de 1 ano, Maria Clara, e continuo escutando até hoje.
Minha banda favorita.
Eu tambem, eu conheci MXPX no ano 2001 e agora eu tenho 36....
Eu tenho 38 e peguei essa época também. 🤣🤛🏻
Minha filha está com 6 anos e veio o Daniel agora com 6 meses 🙏🫣
O meu ja ta com 12... eu com 41... tempo voa malandro....
One, two, three, go
About the time that I turned fourteen
I got a job doin' landscaping
Those days were long and my old boss was mean
About the time that I turned sixteen
I got a car and no place to be
I'd fill up the tank and drive out to the sea
The Rockies ain't too far from here if we drive all night
The cold air will do you well in the mountain morning light
So, let's ride
Let's ride on through the rain
Come on and take me anywhere
That you wanna be
So, let's ride
By the time that I turned nineteen
I'd seen so much, yet I was still green
It's taken me a time or two to learn the things I watched you do for me
There I was at twenty-nine
I can't believe I'm still alive
Though it was never easy, yeah, you and me were born to survive
The Rockies ain't too far from here if we drive all night
The cold air will do you well in the mountain morning light
So, let's ride
That was my escape
A way to change the tape
That was playin', that was playin' in my head
The Rockies ain't too far from here if we drive all night
The cold air will do you well in the mountain morning light
So, let's ride
Let's ride on through the rain
Come on and take me anywhere
That you wanna be
Let's ride, Let's ride
Let's follow the skyline
And when we make it to the other side
We'll find all the bluest skies
Thanks 👍
A lot of these bands are coming back with absolutely SUPERB material! It’s fucking great!
This is a banger
I had stopped keeping up with MxPx around 2003 or so. I pulled up this song and video for the first time with my 4-month-old daughter while at home. It made her smile... and it made me cry happy tears. I'm a renewed man and fan.
This video is totally about me! I've liked Mxpx since I was 13, 18 years later im still cranking their jams...
Remember seeing you guys at the Palace in Hollywood in '96 with Homegrown opening for you. I'm 50 now and still jam with you..Can't wait to see you live again!
OMFG Thank for this!!!! I'm still listening to MXPX!!!!!! since I was a teen and now I'm almost 40
Wow, I've been an MXPX fan for 22 years. This is the first time they've made me cry.
im so glad they added this song to THPS 1 + 2 Remastered. This is honestly such a good song!!
Thank you once again for this I really needed thank you again. I am one man who his life is fed by MxPx. No so many in my city listen to you but me since several years and I will do so until I die. Thank you so very much MxPx. MxPx 4 Eternity.
A couple days ago, I was showing my daughter picture of my college days and realized in almost every one I was wearing my MxPx t-shirts. Now if only Tomfest would start back up.
This is a good song. I keep coming back to it over and over. It makes me feel bad that not very many bands are still making music like this. My kids and I started listening to MXPX many years ago but now they are all grown so when I listen to them now it makes me feel sad that life has changed so much. We used to have a family rock band and played pop punk at a lot at concert venues all around the state and now my grandkids have started playing it.
That's so awesome!

Ohh man, what a ride! Beautiful story. Beautiful video, fucking awesome song.
Thank you, guys.
I'm just here, along with a bunch of others in their mid 30's who have been there since the beginning, just to say we're old now. I'll listen to this over any new band any day.
This song/video got me in the feels. I grew up on MxPx (first CD I ever bought). I love this band and the spirit of their music. I love that they released this album on their terms! Amazing song! Can't wait to hear the rest of the album.
Band of my life! In march 2006 as I was skiing off piste in Kosovo mountains, I got hit by an avalanche that carried me away 200 meters and buried me alive. During those moments under the snow I had headphones where MXPX - Wrecking hotel rooms was still playing. After 2 minutes help came from my two fellow skiers and I came out alive
my favorite bands keep (or kept) putting out good music and im not stuck listening to only their first 2 records... glad MXPX is in that catagory for me
Awesome song. Reminds me of my younger years and driving my '72 manual Chevy Chevette through out the upstate New York & the Berkshires, from Long Island to Boston, and other random locations just to not be home. Even now as I am almost 50 I still have that wanderlust. Thanks guys for capturing that feeling in a song. Don't stop.
What a beautiful video from the boys from MxPx and here's to another 25 years !
Real punk and such emotional connection to what punks about. Experience and relatable stories. 41 years old and still listening to punk
MxPx is BACK! Awesomeness returns to planet earth. Thanks Mike, Tom, Yuri & Chris!
Started listening to MXPX when i was 11..im 32..this is great! Love it!
I love you Mike!!! As many have said, thanks for all the memories. That opening drum beat caught my attention immediately. MxPx FOREVER!
I'm so glad they're still together. First pop punk band i ever got into back in 2009 when i was 8.
Glad they're still around! Let It Happen was the first punk cd I ever bought when I was 15, here I am 33 still punk Lol I like the video too! Keep going
Mxpx is the best band ever from the 90s to 2023
Still sounds great. Lots of great memories from their music. I still have the cassette jacket from Pokinatcha signed by Mike, Tom and Yuri when I met them at a show they did at a tiny club back in the 90's. Glad you're still doing it boys, rock on!
Just like THPS did for me years ago, I again am met with a song I grew to love because of a love for skating. A passion that’s been with me since I was a kid twenty years ago. The magic of the culture is, everything seems suspended in time. My first board, my cousins first trick, the nights we stayed up all night playing this game that bonded us and had us rolling. I had the job for f filming my cousin because I couldn’t land any tricks. We loved everything about being there and participating in something we had to figure out. To this day, I still feel like that kid. Let’s kick out the jams! Get on your board! Nothing but joy on the other side! -RIP Dylan Collier-
Awesome song. Love the emotional vibe! Can't wait for the new stuff. Feels like we in the 90s again!
Agosto 2019 !
I'm 36 ...year 1997 the álbum life in general change my life...thanks for the moments mxpx ...from Chile.
Oh man I haven't heard MXPX in like 9 or 10 years 😱 I had no idea they were still making music and rocking shows! It gives me goosebumps hearing this and makes me smile seeing that they're still making music 🤘🏻
Glad MXPX still making music.. im MXPX fan since the 90s .. thumbs up mxpx for life !
Thanks guys for such a beatiful video that illustrates for many us the journey of growing as adults, facing challenges, going on different stages of maturity and foremost as we continue this path, with this video you let us know that you are walking along with us by giving a track to listen and enjoy through this process.
Thank you
Almost all of the bands I listen to now, are the exact same ones I were listening to in high school back from '93 to '97. Its not because I haven't tried listening to new bands. It's just that the sound is gone it seems........Until you hear another MXPX album! Then, there it is again. That amazing sound that I never thought I would hear again with new, refreshing songs. I'm actually heading to see Face to Face tonight in Cincinnati. Thanks to all of these great bands that ALL bring back so many memories from my youth, I can continue to expect more to come. And that's a great thing. In and of itself. RIP Tony Sly.
amen.
This video makes me want to go back and do it all over again but with purpose this time...
This song has made a profound impact on my life. I’ve found it thanks to THPS 1+2 and it always reminds me of a recently passed friend who loved his rides and his escape. Thank you MXPX for the wonderful song and memories that will always live in my head because of it. Gone too soon, fly high buddy.
Respect to MxPx for keeping it real, from a long time fan.
This video got me in the dad feels. Gonna go hug my baby now
I swear they’re like fine wine and just get better with age. This is why they’re still one of my favorite artists out there! #Mxpx4Life
This song really is perfection. It gets better every time I hear it.
Great song! I'm looking forward to the new album.
God damn. I remember seeing these guys at Warped Tour in 2004. Brings back some memories for sure. Good shit
Wow, AWESOME song! LOVE the Allister shout out at 0:57 :D
I saw allister play in a park in Columbus, Nebraska when the venue cancelled the show. So surreal to still see them pop up on occasion. Think they're a major under appreciated part of pop punk history
定期的に聴きたくなるぜ！
Dammit... I just heard this! They sound so much more beast. I'm impressed. Miss high school. Less than Jake, Allister, and mxpx were my dogs
I'm 58, from Keyser WV, been my favorite band since there Teenage Politics,,,keep Rockin man...
I was there n the 70s when Punk started!!...lol...
✌& 💓
Randomly found this video and song...Holy crap!! New fan right here...Been listening to punk for 30 plus years...Video had me legit in tears by the end...Good stuff🤘
chilling with my brother in his studio with a cup of coffee and cigarettes after school in 2009 listening to punk / pop punk playlist ... ah man wish i could go back
This song's about to blow up, man.
It's amazing how MxPx came back with such a hit in 2018. This is amazing!
Sounds like Panic era MxPx! Totally down with this!
Hell yeah im 18 years old again! Thank you MxPx!
