I have so much respect for this guy now. Hollywood sucks you up and spits you back out. No one else but very few people know what that feels like. I’m proud of Drake Bell for coming forward and I hope he heads down a path of redemption and healing.
@beckscald3855 and his music is actually good...he actually was offered a record deal from Nick but chose to go the indie route instead so he had more creative freedom.
Backhouse Mike, fucking legend. He does a ton of the backing vocals on the first couple albums, and he's the lead vocal feature on the bridge of Fool the World
I have no idea why but this song pops into my head, especially in the shower. It represents such a fun time in my life and in TV. Really cool to hear this story. And much love and respect to you, Drake.
Aunque llevo como 20 años siendo tu fan, en los últimos días he podido saber más de tí, de lo que hay en tu corazón, ahora te veo diferente y te admiro más
I remember watching you on Drake and Josh and I still watch you to this day especially on the Amanda show you made my childhood awesome because of the shows and you are amazing Drake I love watching you on Nickelodeon and I still do today. I am glad that you got to sing the theme song to Drake and Josh and it’s still catchy tune today I’m glad that you wrote it, I love you
Like many fans, I’ve re listened to your telegraph album on replay since QOS & all I can say is wow! Your music speaks so much about what you went through & it sounds like you’ve only just connected this song to that period in your life (as well as to the premise of D&J) but it’s s true, this I you’re fightback anthem in 2003! Your decision to go public, I truly admire that and I’m sure it will help lot people. I hope the past few years are behind you & you’re looking forward & a lot of fans are 💯% with you
Re-align makes a lot more sense than realize, especially after you explain it!! I never know you wrote the theme song. That's so cool. That make it even better.
That is a really fricking cool way to tell a kid a song he wrote is to be the show’s theme. What an awesome experience as well as opportunity that must have been
Awe what a wholesome story!! I always thought the song was just one that you had already written that they thought would be a good fit for the show, but knowing it was written for the show specifically is such a cool story! What ambition! Thank you for giving us an incredible theme song!
You are a wonderful talented young man. My granddaughters love the Drake and Josh show. We would watch you in anything you star in. God bless and keep you safe. I'm sorry you had to suffer in the past at the hands of others. You are in my prayers.
What an awesome story. This song is my childhood, you guys were my childhood. You were so brave deciding to compose the theme song yourself, and later showing it to the producers, something that sometimes can feel so intimate and insecure about. Actually really inspiring!
I'm crying a lot Drake is a great person, I just found out what he suffered and this video moves me because that song was the first one I learned without knowing English, I'm from Colombia and I wish you the best.
I’m sure you get this constantly but that show was so important to me growing up.. i even re watch it today.. I wish I could go back to when new episodes were airing. Thank you for the show and sharing your memories with us to this day!
I respect Drake for having the same level of gratitude for Drake and Josh that Mark Hamill has for Star Wars. Awesome videos like this should encourage people to count their blessings every day.
Would love for these types of chill sort of story/tour vids to become a regular thing! It's awesome! Funny how iconic this show is despite it being quite short for a sitcom, just goes to show how many iconic memorable moments were packed into each and every episode. Hell yeah. Looking forward to more frequent uploads! Rock and Roll!
Ok… but it’s not like he didn’t have producers not only for the music, but for the show as well. He didn’t just “write” the song and it went to air. It doesn’t work like that.
Man...I can't get my eyes off of that gorgeous Gretch! I love it when musicians tell the backstories of thr songs they've written and this was super interesting! Thank you so much for sharing, brotha 🙏🙏
Wow, watching this video just gave me flashback to my childhood. I remember buying your first actual CD with all your music and I was hooked almost immediately. Here I am, 28 yrs old and still a fan. Well done.
Órale este si es un actor completo, no solo actúa, canta y toca un instrumento sino que hasta compuso sus canciones para su show siendo tan jóven 🤙 mis respetos
& Indeed it was a theme song that caught everyones attention. Amazing how something so hype in the moment, became the biggest thing for millions in the matter of 3 days of an creative idea. Love the history behind our childhood favorite theme song. Drake & Josh for always!
He's such an enjoyable person to listen to. I always assumed he was a douche because that's his character's pseudo-role on the show. But Drake legitimately seems like a super nice guy.
This song has always been an absolute banger for me! I play it at all my parties to get amped up and I intend on playing it at my wedding reception. Thank god you did this for us!!
Hell yeah!! So happy that I Found A Way is the theme song for Drake and Josh. Cause I can’t imagine not hearing it, and not growing up with that song in my life. Thanks for writing it and making it Drake!! You rock!!🥹🥰🫶🏻💜💜💜

Drake, You are an amazing person. Grew up watching you and Drake and Josh was one of my favorite shows. Also, glad you were ok especially that horrific head-on collision. 🥰🥰
This is one of the first songs i’ve learned how to play on guitar. I remember learning it by ear but then losing my shit after finding this video on nickelodeon’s channel where Drake HIMSELF does a tutorial of it on his guitar. Now i could play it EXACTLY how it should’ve been be played. This song is and forever will be one of the most joyful memories of my life. I’m 28 now and i immediately turn into a 12 year old whenever i hear it. Thank you Drake for painting a post-soviet teenager’s life with color.
That's a great story, brought back a lot of great memories of binging on Drake & Josh back when I was in school. I got interested to start playing guitar after watching the show lol. Although I started playing at the age of 27 but I got obsessed with guitars after watching that show, especially with the sexy cherry red Fender Stratocaster which Drake plays throughout the show. The very sight of that guitar captivated me and motivated me to start playing. I should've started from school, but it's never too late I guess. Now with a steady paying job, owning a Fender Stratocaster is still in my bucket list. Let's see when that dream becomes a reality.
I have so much respect for this guy now. Hollywood sucks you up and spits you back out. No one else but very few people know what that feels like. I’m proud of Drake Bell for coming forward and I hope he heads down a path of redemption and healing.
No wonder he wrote Hollywood Girl...It must've definitely been inspired by his own experiences.
Agreed well put
Me too I definitely agree with you and your 1 comments right there I definitely like it
I always liked how they'd let Drake perform on the show but didn't force it into every single episode like a Disney show.
It was a way to also promote his music. It's cool that they allowed him to do that. Drake also helped write a number of other theme songs on Nick
@beckscald3855 and his music is actually good...he actually was offered a record deal from Nick but chose to go the indie route instead so he had more creative freedom.
Really? Which one?❤@@beckscald3855
drake played himself in drake & josh
@@TheJoker12323 he played an over the top version of himself. Playing guitar and being in a band.
20+ years later and I finally get the OFFICIAL statement that it’s “realign” and not “realize”

This intro was such a good showcase of what Drake & Josh was about. One of the best themes a show could have.
without the theme song this show might have been a lot less popular
Exactly! The Theme song is what caught my attention!!
I agree
@@mistyhall001igual yo
I'm sure at the time you didn't realize you were writing a masterpiece for our generation
It’s REALIGN not realize come on

Не только для вашего
It's such an iconic theme song. You & your writing partner should be incredibly proud
I can't believe I've been singing the Drake and Josh theme song wrong for years now I thought it was realize not knowing that it's realign 😂

Backhouse Mike, fucking legend. He does a ton of the backing vocals on the first couple albums, and he's the lead vocal feature on the bridge of Fool the World
Damn!! He created a full theme song for Nickelodeon when he was 14 years old, super talented guy.
And then he started dating 14 year olds
Nickelodeon didn't capitalize on this song. This got me listening to a few other TV theme songs and they don't even hold a candle to this.
Talented Rizzer
👏👏👏 bravo sir. I'm crying 😂😂
@@Muahaha651 False
Knowing the story behind your thought process of the making of this song has been a great joy. Im back to 2004 im your 30th biggest fan
He is so musically connected and talks about it so well. Guitar skills uGHH
stay strong drake! better days are yet to come, and thank you for making us all laugh growing up
I have no idea why but this song pops into my head, especially in the shower. It represents such a fun time in my life and in TV. Really cool to hear this story. And much love and respect to you, Drake.
It wasn't your fault. You are amazing.
How many people just now figured out it’s realign and not realize??
I always thought it was "read a lie"
Drake seems like a real, cool, down to earth guy !
dude you HAVE to upload the demo of the song you played for them!! that would be a unique piece of TV history!
agreed
Bro please.
he doesn't own the song
That would be a copyright strike immediately lol
@@John-pp6xyactually he does. It’s on his 2005 album Telegraph
I cant help but smile anytime i see him smiling
yes 🥹🥰
I always enjoyed this song. I indeed had that thought, "omg Drake & Josh is on!"
Drake and Josh is a classic. One of Nickelodeon’s best OG shows. It will always be treasured! 💐❤️
Oh man! You started playing and the song came right back to me. Loooved the opening theme!
Aunque llevo como 20 años siendo tu fan, en los últimos días he podido saber más de tí, de lo que hay en tu corazón, ahora te veo diferente y te admiro más
You just settled a 20 year old argument! I was on team "realign" and my sister was on team "realize."
If only Josh stood by the lyrics like Drake has.
exactly 💔
They're actors. Just because their characters loved each other doesn't mean they have to

Well, he does have a major affinity for minors.
I love it and find it fascinating when an actor won’t separate himself from the character he plays “he had to move to my bedroom”.

Loved the show, growing up & LOVE that theme! - Part of the soundtrack to my childhood! ♥️
He is a great storyteller ❤
So cool! Not an easy song to write! Especially at 15! Clever lyrics, awesome chord changes! Amazing that it happened this way
It's because he found a way
@@c-fink cmon you know that’s garbage
Ok… but it’s not like he didn’t have producers not only for the music, but for the show as well. He didn’t just “write” the song and it went to air. It doesn’t work like that.
He slipped a diminished phrase in that pre chorus
And hes probably the only actor in history to write the theme song of his own TV show....and as a teenager??? Its an epic feat
Drake and Josh has always been and always will be my favorite Nickelodeon show EVER! And this theme song BY FAR is my favorite for ANY show.
En Colombia también te amamos Drake Campana❤
thanks for this video, drake!
Drake & Josh made huge success here in brazil, it was one of my favorite shows!
thanks for sharing this story! also that guitar is soooo beautiful i’m in awe
Pretty confident it's a lime green Brian Setzer hot rod.
Good to see ya dude. Used to watch Drake and Josh religiously
in its peak when I was a kid. Nice!!
You’re an awesome musician! I always appreciated your work.
