@BCWasbrough I had it on Cassette tape. Finally got to see these guys live in 2017 at a Tribal Casino' near my house. The Crowd sang this word for Word ( with Hotel Room's surrounding the stage)! It was 👌 Killer!
@akatripclaymore.9679 I've seen them a bunch after this. Like 97 and on. Saw them last around 2010 when they played Bad Habit the crowd went nuts. We grew up in a great era!
I was there! He jumped right on me to crowd surf! I was the grand prize winner to the award show and never heard of the Offspring until then. I am glad to have found this as I recorded it but lost it. AWESOME!!!
Saw The Offspring live in 1995 and it was one of the most memorable concerts. International Ball Room in Houston, TX. Small venue and it was AWESOME!!!
Yeah this was aired live on TV back in December 1994. Yeah is pretty punk to sing "Fucker" on live TV and then do a stage dive! This is one of my favorite performances of this song.
Great memories!!! Watch when they cut from him to audience at the 2:17 mark, im the goober waving his arms in the white shirt! ah yes, great times!!! Unbelievable to think that was almost 25 years ago! Where does time go? Its still a totally kick ass song!!! I became an instant fan of The Offspring that night!!!
@@pvshka I had mom (RIP mom) record it back home in Kentucky So I had a VHS copy. I took it to work, it passed around to several people and I lost track of it. Finding it here was so awesome! There's so much more to this memory and story. But that's just a small part!
I saw this for the first time in the winter of 95. I was 14. I knew nothing about 90s punk back then, except maybe some band names. As soon as I heard them, I was hooked.
He never could, honestly, always at least half a tone down. But that wasn't a problem back then, he was a showman and was aware of his vocal limitations.
@Big Daddy Rikka it's not about "pretty voice" it's about vocal range. You can have a raspy voice or whatever and still have an impressive range if you do enough vocal exercises.
god damn it.... i must have been nine or ten years old... my first concert ever, my uncle took me. The Smash tour with the Lunachicks and the Vandals. changed my fucking life forever. they were so fucking good back then.
Wow. Wouldn't expect this video. Greg K jumped and was actually moving from his place. Wow. Dexter was full of energy there. Man. They Really rock there. Now they just play. The only guy moving is Noodles these days 😎 Love the band
I didn't have lots of access to new music with no cable and only a few radio stations but I remember this performance on basic TV from a band I never heard of before. Offspring's Smash album was my first CD I bought and was the happiest 15 year old listening to it nonstop on my portable CD walkman, great times!
Smash and ignition were to die for .. everything after that was complete garbage. Might as well lump them in with Green Day and Blink 182. Just awful ..
@@adamdavis4417 Ixnay on the Hombre was amazing what do you mean? Same goes with their st album. There are also a few songs from Americana that were great.
@@adamdavis4417 are you serious? Americana , Ixnay and even Days Go By its a good album! Dont compare the most versatility Punk band with Pop Punk bands like Green Day ... Offspring started with Hardcore Punk in first album .... then Punk Rock with Ignition until Americana and now Pop Punk.
+Marty McFly It's been twenty freaking years. You try jumping around for 20 years then come back and post how tired you look lol. Jumping is hard on the knees once you get close to 50. Just be thankful they still play.
I dont get how people complain about Dexter being out of tune in the 2010s, he always was BUT that it is what i find makes the band special and every single one of their songs is fantastic so WHO CARES
It's fucking punk rock who gives a fucking shit ? Does people complain about Ramones who can't even sing properly ? It was the shit .. even if the guy couldn't sing for shit ..
Dexters always a little flat but he's not "out". and it's really only the hits where he's out of key. When he sings older/ more obscure stuff where he doesn't scream all the time, he sounds fine.
They opened with this song after Higgins did an 'Alternative Nitro Opening' back in '05 in Manchester UK. I have never, and I will never, hear a better opening in my entire life. That original 'Ba doooommm BOOOOOOM, ba doo doo.' Amazing life experiences.
i saw them 3 days ago, dex wasnt too bad, it still moved some wat. his voice didnt change at all, and he sounded pretty much perfect. its pretty good considering hes like 40 +
If I remember right, this played during the closing credits for the show. I was surprised that they were playing THIS song in particular on a "live" broadcast. I also remembered the credits ending at precisely two minutes and nineteen seconds into the performance. At the time, I thought it was a hilarious compromise.
Went over your head eh? The idea was at first to look nice and safe and ans censor himself, the suit represented doing what he is told to do. The moment he takes it off and shows his shirt against those very suits is when he says fuck you to those suits. I thought it was pretty clear symbolism.
I remember when this aired. They forgot to edit it on national TV. I was in 8th grade I went nutts in my living room! Cheers to the 90s
By the time it aired on the West Coast, it was edited. :)

His voice here is unlike any other singer in history.
So unique and amazing...gotta love it
some dont, dont know y...

The best album of all. There`s not a so so song. Everyone are great, fantastic or awesome.
+Luis Ferreira One of the few you can listen to again and again and again.
Luis Ferreira one of my all time favorites. still listen to it regularly.
loud noise! can't stand it, aaaaaaaaaargh.
@@SunOfRa i listen to it, for 2 years, every day. It as power, speeed, amazing sound...its a 10!
No, the best álbum of all is "Ignition"
I love Dexter’s crowd-surfing moment, and the decision to not censor the lyrics.
+Acosky Films except that he did SELF CENSOR himselt here by saying "Gonna wreck this Suckers ride" 1:00
Stephen Martel Yeah, but maybe Billboard told him to do that, and censor the rest, but instead he only censored that.
I remember seeing this live years ago. They must of had a delay on TV. All the cures words were bleeped out.
@@sandmanontherun I saw it live, it wasn't censored
@@p1sstoph3 i second that i remember that performance quite well
2:20 .... went for some crowdsurfing and came back singing on stage without losing a beat :) . Great timing.
heck yeah!! Offspring in their prime, they ruled the punk rock scene back in the 90s!!
I saw them live in San Diego'95 Smash era and Dexter still had his long braids and still took stage dives😅💞
and you wonder why the 90s was the best decade everrrrrrrr
sorry 80 s
blue boy sorry, 20's
yeah mc hammer, the spice girls, vanilla ice, michael bolton and billy ray cyrus were such geniuses
90s one of the best decades ever wish I could’ve lived through it
was born in 84, this is the first rock act i saw on tv...changed my life
Saw The Offspring live in 1995 and it was one of the most memorable concerts. International Ball Room in Houston, TX. Small venue and it was AWESOME!!!
Yeah this was aired live on TV back in December 1994. Yeah is pretty punk to sing "Fucker" on live TV and then do a stage dive! This is one of my favorite performances of this song.
When I saw them in 1997 they opened with this song and it remains one of my favorite concert experiences to this day! Epic opening song!!!
Dexter had so much energy back then! No knees to chest these days 😀
What a performance!!
Then again he was in his late '20s back then. And now hes in his '50s.
Played these CDS to death in the 90s, still have all of them since their debut album
Smash is remarkable and so addictive...best alternative albums ever!
A song so underrated but just as good as Self Esteem.
bassist still looks identical 20 years on haha legend
I saw them in 95, 2012 and now this Friday. Can't wait
Lucky, I was suppose to see them in Baltimore but no I had to throw up all over he place three hours before it started, and I rarely get sick
Saw them a few days ago! Awesome!
Great memories!!! Watch when they cut from him to audience at the 2:17 mark, im the goober waving his arms in the white shirt! ah yes, great times!!! Unbelievable to think that was almost 25 years ago! Where does time go? Its still a totally kick ass song!!! I became an instant fan of The Offspring that night!!!
lol you were very lol
Please make your offspring listen to The Offspring to continue the tradition 😁
That's a dope memory to have, and even better to have recorded 😁
@@pvshka I had mom (RIP mom) record it back home in Kentucky So I had a VHS copy. I took it to work, it passed around to several people and I lost track of it. Finding it here was so awesome! There's so much more to this memory and story. But that's just a small part!
Oh, hi Mark.
I saw this for the first time in the winter of 95. I was 14. I knew nothing about 90s punk back then, except maybe some band names. As soon as I heard them, I was hooked.
WOW, I remember seeing this live on TV and it blew my mind back then. So awesome when you're 14 years old and this album came out.
Love it when Dexter still could sing like in the record!
Like the antagonist in Dr. Strange said : time is our biggest enemy.
He never could, honestly, always at least half a tone down. But that wasn't a problem back then, he was a showman and was aware of his vocal limitations.
@Big Daddy Rikka it's not about "pretty voice" it's about vocal range. You can have a raspy voice or whatever and still have an impressive range if you do enough vocal exercises.
This show was spectacular.
It's 2013 and this is still my favourite song, it's been that way since I heard it when it came out
This vid is so rare!Thanks for uploading!They rock!
god damn it.... i must have been nine or ten years old... my first concert ever, my uncle took me. The Smash tour with the Lunachicks and the Vandals. changed my fucking life forever. they were so fucking good back then.
ure superlucky
That was one of the best live performances ever
Wow. Wouldn't expect this video. Greg K jumped and was actually moving from his place. Wow. Dexter was full of energy there. Man. They Really rock there. Now they just play. The only guy moving is Noodles these days 😎 Love the band
Gotta love the 90's.
Fuck the 90s, but Christ was there ever some kickass music!
wow this is such an epic performance of this song
I miss the 90s.
I love Noodles' backing vocals in the live performances of Bad Habit. Yeah, yeeaah!
I've never seen this live before Oo
dex's vocals are awesome!!

Probably my favorite performance of this song!
good point, it just was ubercool, the perfect mix of energy ,gutts, harmonics and the coolest looking frontman ever ....it changed my life ,completly.
Best song, 25 years old today. Wish I was alive when it all went down :(
Getting old sucks major ass, count yourself fortunate to still be in your early 20s :)
I won tix to this on my local radio station at the time, it was a blast
The Offspring 4ever punk rock
Offspring never stop being good. Enough with the "First 3 LPs" syndrom...
Smash and ignition were to die for .. everything after that was complete garbage. Might as well lump them in with Green Day and Blink 182. Just awful ..

when even in the Billboard´s world, had good taste in music. Good old days. 90´s rules!
0:36 DAMN I have never seen Greg jump before. He is so energetic through this video. He seems so tired these days.
the dude is 48
+Marty McFly It's been twenty freaking years. You try jumping around for 20 years then come back and post how tired you look lol. Jumping is hard on the knees once you get close to 50. Just be thankful they still play.
+Marty McFly We all know you have a time machine Marty, but don't you know anything about aging?
He even had his hair dyed blue. He definitely seemed more invested in the band back then.
Marty McFly ..cocaine is a powerful drug
I love Offsprings early material. Cuz I got a bad habit!
damn! this is amazing
best live video ive seen from smash era

@@KingBlonde he doesn't sound "fine" anymore on any song. But I don't blame him, he really didn't go easy on his vocal chords back in the days.
this is my first best song when i was teen and today im still loving this song and it still keep in my best song'list
They opened with this song after Higgins did an 'Alternative Nitro Opening' back in '05 in Manchester UK. I have never, and I will never, hear a better opening in my entire life.
That original 'Ba doooommm BOOOOOOM, ba doo doo.'
Amazing life experiences.
Love love love love this song!!!
So much energy! Awesome!

Reading the book smash and they talk about this moment the back story to this performance should be punk legend.
Awesome song, they really kicked ass in the 90.
This song reminds me a lot of Americana
Back in the days of moshing and crowd surfing. Great times.
GREAT YEAR❤❤❤❤❤
Wow, that was an amazing performace and the T-shirt says: "Corporate Rock kills bands dead"
2024 and still slaps ✌
Oh, wow! Amazing memories right here.
Amazing!
Awesome!
Kick ass song by my favorite band :)
That was 💣 God, they were so young!
Can't imagine they were happy about that shirt Dex was wearing.
Can't imagine they were happy about the corn rows...
Celeb Wiz that's real
man i loved this album so much an and this song was the shit!
I remember watching this live. They anounced it as self esteem and no one saw the swearing on live tv coming! So great!
He said " sucker " at first. Then by the end of the song he just figured fuck it
Went over your head eh? The idea was at first to look nice and safe and ans censor himself, the suit represented doing what he is told to do. The moment he takes it off and shows his shirt against those very suits is when he says fuck you to those suits.
I thought it was pretty clear symbolism.
David Downs and*
+David Downs they were trying their best to not catch a full frontal camera shot of the shirt either.
David Downs++ Yes. Was trying to read what it says on the shirt but i couldnt.
dek boo "Corporate Rock Kills Bands Dead."
SAW IT LIVE BACK THEN!!
awesome
Offspring so underrated. They Overlooked so much. I think they are one of the best bands off
the 90s.
Einfach nur hammergeil...selbst mit der miserablen Sound-Qualität!
I remember jamming this song on the way to school one morning my principal heard it and tried to expel me 🤣🤣
I loved his long hair
Why Dexter had to cut his hair?
Punk don't have long hair...on Epitath...
Reminds me of AXL Rose
@@sebastianstaal1436 axl rose reminds dexter.
@lizyred because at some point it wasn't 1994 anymore??
Dexter had such a unique look and sound back in the day
Sensacional Offspring
Offspring and Green day in 90s best ever!!
i used to have this taped on VHS !!!
Dude, that was awesome
Cool !!!!!!!!!
Wow, this is great! And I LOVE the part from 2:10-2:24!!
Nice!!
Amo este grupo es el mejor del punk
This was the most popular song when I was in seventh grade. Oh...memories!
THey are awesome live xD

I was 18 years and 6 months at this show ........ FUCKEN AWESOME
I was in the Navy and got to see a shitload of concerts during the early to mid 90's. Great time during my youth
de Antología!
