if I had a nickel for every time a 00's neon pop punk band made a pop country album in the 2010's I'd have 2 nickels
God that Boys Like Girls album sucked
It was strange both bands went in that direction. Was not a huge fan of the sound.
@@yankeexdev i love the sound,, i think because my taste is more towards folk and less punk.
The song Dakota has no business still living in my head rent free in 2024 at the most random times.
Same here! My name is Dakota so I end up singing about myself hahaha
Babe wake up new scene lore just dropped
This is so crazy. I literally just rediscovered On Your Side a few days ago and thought to myself, "Man, this would be a great band for The Cozy Representative to cover!" And here we are. I'll get my popcorn.
"Annabelle" may be one of the strongest songs to come out of the neon pop-punk scene. Unbelievably good.
Have a soft spot for this band. I still listen to them today.
I think, it will be a good idea to create a playlist to accompany the history of the band!
its interesitng how this "scene"/era (and i mean the more neon/power pop side of scene music) is pretty much not codified or spoken on outside of your channel but will inevitably have some big comeback in 10 years when the next generation finds out about it
Please do one on Owl City or Plugin Stereo! I love your videos!
Baby, we’re invincible by Rocket to the Moon will always be a banger
“Not a Second to Waste” is still one of my top 10 songs of all time 😭😭😭
I was at The Maine’s Boston show this past December and I had no idea Nick Santino was from A Rocket to the Moon! I would have been so much more excited when he walked on stage if I knew!
Fear of flying will al again be a comfort song for me :)
"I Do" from Wild & Free was my wife and I's wedding song haha love this band. Thanks for the vid Cozy
I loved their earlier solo electro pop stuff! I still have their stuff on my phone.
God I loved their very first album, the old MySpace stuff.
Great video. I still think ARTTM holds up in 2024! And I love Nick’s band Beach Weather.
You should do the history behind The Secret Handshake next.
I recently discovered your channel and I’m so glad I did. I’m happy I have a place where I can learn about all the emo lore that I missed :D
You're videos always feel like a treat!
OMG the nostalgia! I used to talk to Nick's gf at the time, around 2008, on MySpace while they toured. Ended up doing street team stuff and making fan art for them. They had it up on their website. I miss this era of music, was such a fun time. Great video, Cozy!
i fear the day you run out of bands to talk about. i love these videos so much man.
These videos always give me life. I went down a rabbit hole of my early 2000s jams and they were one of my top artists along with Flyleaf and I always wondered what happened to them?!?
DUDE YES I've been waiting forever for a video on RTTM
I freaking love you dude thank you 🎉
In 2010, I was 18 and a freshman in college in Kentucky. I was obsessed with the “On Your Side” album! I remember playing it all the time from my iPod touch while roaming around EKUs campus. Oh, to be young again 🥲
The Maine is one of the few bands that did the “country-adjacent” thing right. Black & White’s country beats weren’t jarring. It all blended together really well. I haven’t heard anything new since American Candy though so I’m not sure if they kept that vibe, but John’s voice is really suited for it
Their newest self titled is more dance like. John doesn't really have a country vibe or voice in any of their recent work. Everything from American Candy onwards is gold!
Can’t think of a band from this time that went through so many different musical style changes but did each style really well! Baby we’re invincible is still a classic from the MySpace days!
Holy shit, is your avatar pic Farewell?
@@ReanuKeaves1yes! Finally someone notices haha. Had it like this for years now!
Watching your videos is always a pleasure, I could not know or care much about these bands but as long as it's you telling them I'm all ears!!
Dang this is a throwback. I loved these guys and go back to their music from time to time.
Cozi your videos make my day. Thank you.
Saw the maine a couple of months ago and I have a priceless video of the guys vibing to Like We Used To after the concert, love that they’re all friends still, love that A Rocket to the moon’s music still lives
You should do The Summer Set. I was obsessed with their song Chelsea.
My first concert was A Rocket to the Moon, Secondhand Serenade, Automatic Loveletter, and Cute is What We Aim For. Those were the days!
Very glad to catch this one so early, your documentaries are some of my favorite on youtube these days. Even when I don't know the bands super well. Keep em coming.
My very first concert ever was the Kids in the Streets tour by AAR and ARTTM was the opener, so this weird little band will always have a place in my heart as the first band I ever saw
From Hellogoodbye to t-pain hahahaha now that's range
Oh man, I loved a rocket to the moon! My high school boyfriend was named Dakota and I was obsesssssed with that song. So nostalgic.
Great band to cover! Remember they were pretty big in Mass. Matt Squire also did Northstar’s masterpiece Pollyanna & TBS New Again just to name a couple of my favorites he worked on
I saw this after listening to some of Beach Weathers music, I still love playing Baby blue eyes on guitar haha
U are looking cozier then ever 😍
oh how i miss them
I absolutely love Wild & Free. Yes it was cheesy, but the whole album was super catchy! I do still think that Greetings From... is their best work. That EP slaps.
Greetings From is such a perfect little EP, and for a band's first official release at that.
It would be cool to see a video on The Ready Set
I really appreciate your service to my 00’s neon pop punk nostalgia that I refuse to let go of 🫡
a rocket to the moon truly shaped my middle school years.. what a time :’)
Gosh I love this channel
your channel is an actual gem, its gotta be cherished foreve! forever repping the cozy rep!
a rocket to the moon is one of my favorite bands of all time, and i’m planning on using their song “somebody out there” for my wedding (another incredible song of the wild and free album)
I was supposed to see Rocket perform with The All-American Rejects back in 2011 at my college at the time..I was so bummed when they ended up not coming. But it makes sense now with all of their touring/record label issues. Thanks Cozy for bringing me some closure to this 😅
You _BETTER_ be the cool uncle by now!
Wild and free was an amazing album. Fight me.
Plz do kill paradise so curious about their story :) awesome video as always
MISSED U!!
I THINK ABOUT YOU EVERYDAAAAY
love u cozy! hope u make post hardcore content at some point again, i looked forward to it every month tbh
Mr Right still slaps
I love your videos!! Don’t even know this band at all but was happy to see an upload from you. Enjoyed as always
on your side and greetings from are still everyday staples for me, they’ve aged well! ❤
Also the neon pop punk to failed country album pipeline really needs to be talked about more lol
OOOooHHhhh DAAkkkOOtttAAA 🎸🎙🎶
Fit is hard today dawg
I know youre branching out to new stuff recently but id love a story on death cab for cutie and the postal service some time 💙
You should do one of these retrospective videos about Secondhand Serenade.
I agree with literally EVERYTHING you said about this band. I loved everything they did in the early days, even nick’s solo stuff. But wild and free just made me switch off.
oh one I didn’t know about. I’m ready to learn! I saw you post Scotty Vanity on IG… are we getting that video 😅
great video as always julian, i would love to see a video on Zebrahead someday if u know about them. They are so fun live & they've been around for a WHILE at this point
Fear of flying is my fave
I love ur videos sm I was wondering if you could maybe cover fear before the march of flames cuz I just found them n would love to kno more. Also did u know that ur vid is sampled in a Dallas cowboys song “if I were that quirky id kms” at least I’m pretty sure
Eric comes out once every two years as Ted Lavender to DJ for 8123 fest 😂
Please! We need a Shai Hulud doc!!! I will post this on all of your videos until you relent!!
Time to get cozy
I definitely had a poster of them on my wall and saw them several times but they were so mid lol. BUT, I have a friend named Dakota so that song persists in my life..
I must have completely stopped paying attention because I have no memory of this country era. Breaking up 6 weeks after a release is wild.
You should do a video on the rise and fall of 3oh!3
I honestly preferred the early electro A Rocket to the moon stuff
The only reason I know this band is because they have a song with my name called Annabelle. It is now my anthem due to being really good despite it actually being really rude.
HOLD ON A MINUTE- THEY COME FROM MY STATE TOO? THIS IS TOO IRONIC NOW!
Summer '07 EP is still slept on IMO; "Baby We're Invincible" and "Are You Catching My Drift Yet?" live rent free in my head to this day. Still remember downloading it off PureVolume.
I don't think the pop-country pivot was *that* strange, looking at what started blowing up in the early 2010s, with the rise of "Indie" bands like Mumford and Sons that drew on the hipster-meets-Nashville aesthetic. Boys Like Girls and Quietdrive tried the roots/folky stuff on their last couple albums in the 2012/2014 era, and Every Avenue was headed down the same path (if the lead singer hadn't gone to prison). Heck, how many emo/scene kids grew into the hipsters of the 2010s? I do think a lot of the bands that took that path were chasing trends to some degree and that's never a good sign. It seems like Beach Weather is embracing the lo-fi, heavily produced/distorted vocals vibe of early ARRTM and maybe that's where Nick Santino always wanted to be.
After reading your comment, I'm checking Nick's new band. I recently rediscovered Your Best Idea and remembered why I was obsessed with that album. I always preferred ARTTM when it was a solo project.
Please do a video on emo rap at some point.
Could you talk about the band get scared?
Tell me what happened to Artist vs Poet 🙏🏻
never heard of them before. I hope you will do new videos about more popular bands and their rise & fall.
Great lyrics, great musicianship, terrible lead vocalist. Awful range, Terrible technique and a lot of flat notes.
They didn't make it for a reason.
