When I was around 12 I wrote her a letter from japan. She wrote me back with cute envelope. Now I’m 29 and still have the letter and remember the feeling when I got it 🥰
Omg I wrote from the states and got one back too!! She’s honestly so so sweet. Did yours come handwritten on pink paper? Ah sorry none of my friends growing up were interested so it’s exciting to see others who wrote to her too!
I worked at Walmart in St. Kitts when I was doing my undergrad and cashed her out. She was so sweet and humble. I wanted to fangirl as I listened to her when I was in junior high.
It's interesting how Miley Cyrus and all the Disney girls came out with this aesthetic a few years later and it blew up. Skye never got her dues for being before them.
Yes. Miley, Demi and even Selena Gomez (during Selena Gomez and the Scene's first album "Kiss and Tell"). Anyway, there's a photo of Miley with the butterfly guitar Skye plays at 1:06.
1:41 and 1:44 - me when TikTok finally gets banned, and everyone comes back to UA-cam. UA-cam will reign supreme! May this amazing song and artist Skye never be forgotten! ♥
But for now, Enjoy her work on YT, CD discs and of course, her theme songs on 3 top cartoons... My Life Me, The Buzz on Maggie and the best one she's ever done... Wayside!* (Very freaking catchy... best thing about 2005, outside of Gran Turismo 4)
Avril Lavigne, Amy Lee, Skye Sweetnam, Katy Rose and Ashlee Simpson...2004 was their year!! I was only a toddler at this time, but I read on the comments that the people who were 2000s teenagers liked so much their styles...I guess that these were the good times to live the teenage years, the pop punk and the emo era!! So great!! ❤🎸
Guilty to a point LOL I was a middle schooler in 2004 but I got swept up in the pop punk and alternative craze around that time. I was just getting into rock music around 2003 after discovering KROQ 106.7 (Rock radio station in southern california) but because I was coming from top 40 pop of the 2000s, singers like Katy Rose, Fefe Dobson, Skye Sweentam, Avril Lavigne, P!nk (the Misunderstood era), Ashlee Simpon's "Autobiography" era, and Lillix were right up my alley. I'd also like to throw in The Donnas, Bif Naked, Saving Jane, Kelly Osbourne (she originally started with Pop Punk music lol), and the soundtrack for Josie & the Pussycuts (2001 movie) lol.
I remember her from the early 2000's then she seemed to disappear. It just goes to show that if the record company and radio stations want to push certain artists and bury others it does not matter what the listeners want.
You def have a point. Record labels are pretty evil, especially with discarding and grooming young artists. Very happy with the expansion of the internet and now many people can be independent and have more control over what and when you want to put material out.
I can't believe I just discovered this video. Aw...I love you Skye! continue singing. Your music has always been so expressive and downright realistic. Go Skye!
This is a great song for anyone who's trying to get over someone who's being a pain in your side, especially one who said they loved you but stabbed you in the back when you were away.
If you like Skye, check out Avril Lavigne, Lillix, Krystal Meyers, Fefe Dobson, Ashlee Simpson, Everlife, KSM, Orianthi, Lesley Roy, Kelly Osbourne and Katy Rose. Don't forget Skye's own band Sumo Cyco.
This was the SHIT back in the day and it still rocks! I haven’t sang in the shower for years and remembering this song brought it out of me 😂♥️ Love Skye!! ♥️♥️
@@Giantsblood but at this point back then, she had some good fish to fry... Performing 2 cartoon themes in the mid 2000s. The ok "Buzz on Maggie" and the phenomenal "Wayside" theme songs. Yeah, Wayside is my favorite Canadian cartoon as of now, and it's the perfect escape from today's reality... Even the remix is a banger.
+Kenya Fayne Hate to refer people to her new stuff, since I wish she'd return to her roots, but she is the lead singer of a group called Sumo Cyco now.
I saw my boyfriend Hanging with this girl that I hate He didn't have to tell me Why last night he was late I can't believe what you tell me Your lies have come undone Now I'm living on the run Looking out for number one I took a ride to the city Had to get out of this place I just can't stand the pity When the tears fall down my face I used to think it was over But it's only just begun Now I'm living on the run Looking out for number one One day you'll see me But only when you're dreaming One day you'll say I was the one I hitched a ride on a Greyhound Stashed away on a train Bought a ticket for the subway Playing guitar in the rain I wanna follow the rivers To an island in the sun Now I'm living on the run Looking out for number one One day you'll see me But only when you're dreaming One day you'll say I was the one Late at night tired to fight I just might think about him Right now I'm feeling fine I'm better off without him YEAH! One day... One day... One day... You'll say I was the one One day you'll see me But only when you're dreaming One day you'll say I was the one I know that one day You'll see me I'll haunt you when you're dreaming One day you'll say I was the one I'm number one
Y2K Checklist: 1. Side bangs 2. Skirt over the pants 3. Tutu in a fun color 4. Faux corset in a fun color (with the tutu in this case) 4. That eye makeup 5. Mesh fingerless gloves 6. Those tiny sleeves on her shirt towards the end of the video
@@soulfire6906 Van Halen made Me a badass in 2008, when I was 5, by playing Gran Turismo 4, with "Panama" as the theme song for the North American release. But now, Skye reminds me of the Wayside School cartoon, "Wayside"... 2023 was a blast watching that pilot and season 1 on DVD.
I can't believe Skye is not more recognize, she's awesome!!!! I mean, they support asrtist that can't sing nor write their own songs, but they can't support genuine artists like Skye and also Fefe Dobson? I love Skye! She's so awesome xD I can relate to her songs haha
Oh my gosh Skye, thank you so much for writing this song. It has helped tremendously with my break-up. I'm sure he won't wake up saying, 'Damn, why did I break up with that girl??' (ha, more like, 'Thank GOD I broke up with that girl) but still. It's nice to think that maybe he will :) this song is a great confidence booster!
"Once upon a time, music was good. Then, Disney force fed us that Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera shit. All of the 90s/early 2000s music sucks." Music was never universally good. Every era had the same amount of good and bad music, including this one.
I have to disagree. There's good and bad music in every decade. Skye Sweetnam is no different from Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez. Her music is still pop. Sweetnam just has an edgier punk image and sound.
***** I think your all right but to me what Sky has that the others don't is integrity. I feel the record company behind Selena and although I like Wrecking Ball as a song Miley definitely wants the fame and fortune and is actively pursuing it with her brand. Sky is a musician/artist making art. There is a difference and those that love art see it and those that like whatever else is associated with these lovely ladies do not.
Jen S Why do you even feel the need to bring Avril up? I see tons of comments like this bringing up their dislike for Avril. Is it because the media used to compare them? That’s not Avril’s fucking fault that the media likes to compare female artists to each other. I like Skye and her music a lot but the fact that her fans were always so bitter and rude about Avril turned me away from Skye for a really long time. Maybe she would have had more fans back in the day if the ones she did have weren’t always attacking Avril for no reason. You guys have turned away a lot more people than you think who otherwise would have become fans of her.
This song feels so empowering? Is that the word? Idk, but I can't help the rush of energy I feel when I listen to it and I start to jump all over the place. Makes me feel good.
When I was around 12 I wrote her a letter from japan. She wrote me back with cute envelope. Now I’m 29 and still have the letter and remember the feeling when I got it 🥰
omg thats so cool, u r lucky af
Omg I wrote from the states and got one back too!! She’s honestly so so sweet. Did yours come handwritten on pink paper? Ah sorry none of my friends growing up were interested so it’s exciting to see others who wrote to her too!
im 28 i did the same !! i got a signed pic and stickers and stuff ^_^
@@Itstartedinapril yes it was handwritten and I was surprise 🥺 I’m glad I can finally share this feelings with someone 😂
@@Synfulz. Nice! Good old times 🥰🥰🥰
I worked at Walmart in St. Kitts when I was doing my undergrad and cashed her out. She was so sweet and humble. I wanted to fangirl as I listened to her when I was in junior high.
I think she deserves SO much more 😭😭
I agree!
I liked her old stuff but I dig her new stuff more lol
It's interesting how Miley Cyrus and all the Disney girls came out with this aesthetic a few years later and it blew up. Skye never got her dues for being before them.
Yes. Miley, Demi and even Selena Gomez (during Selena Gomez and the Scene's first album "Kiss and Tell").
Anyway, there's a photo of Miley with the butterfly guitar Skye plays at 1:06.
Wow I see so much of Demi's moves are inspired by her now!
So what she never blew up? Didn't have to imo. I still prefer her over all the figures you guys mentioned
She is now in a band called sumo cyco
It wasn't them, it was Avril. Skye's Canadian and so is Avril that's where the "issue" was with Skye's lable.
This brings back so many middle school memories
Fucking factsssss
Fantastic song! and man you just can’t beat the 2000s.
1:41 and 1:44 - me when TikTok finally gets banned, and everyone comes back to UA-cam. UA-cam will reign supreme! May this amazing song and artist Skye never be forgotten! ♥

@@KaiDecadence Freaky Friday and The Barbie Diaries also have great pop punk and pop rock tracks
Can we really not get an HD upload of this in 2020? C’mon!😂
HD tech wasn't a thing back then lol This is as good as we got it 🤣
Just as when I was 15, I still dance in my undies to this song, and I shout it from the rooftops.
Skye is so cool.
You ever listen to Sumo Cyco?
arent you a guy?
@@Liamnerfdude1 aren't u too judgemental? It isn't 2000s anymore u cud get some lectures.
@@Yugvijay omg slay slay

アヴリルのブームの影に隠れてしまったけど、当時も今も大好き♡♡
テンション上がる鉄板曲です!!!
ILoveYou♡♡
this is the most early 2000's thing ever i miss those days
Bring this throwback Skye back. These tunes were so sick
I think Skye has a lot of talent. Much more than the popular celebrities these days. She's somewhat famous, but I think she deserves more.
16 years passed by & im still listening to this song.. how time flies 😍
I remember her from the early 2000's then she seemed to disappear. It just goes to show that if the record company and radio stations want to push certain artists and bury others it does not matter what the listeners want.
she's in a band now: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sumo_Cyco
she's now known as Sever and she currently has another band called 'Sumo Cyco' You should check them out! Her new look is kinda cool
+Ked Kapong Thanks for the reply, I will check the band out.
lol she grew up. She's still making music in Sumo Cyco
You def have a point. Record labels are pretty evil, especially with discarding and grooming young artists. Very happy with the expansion of the internet and now many people can be independent and have more control over what and when you want to put material out.
I’m 30 now and still bump this in my car. Skye was THAT girl. Argue with ya mama. ✌🏽
I actually used to look up to Avril Lavigne and Skye Sweetnam.
i love them both no matter what.
Omg same, they're the best and i still look up to them
Me too. They were my crushes when I was in middle school. Still love them both though.
I can't believe I just discovered this video. Aw...I love you Skye! continue singing. Your music has always been so expressive and downright realistic. Go Skye!
Dude, I'm a 20 year old and I think she is awesome. Love her music, reminds me of old school Avril.
How does it feel like to be 30 yo
Still obsessed with her bangs omg
Newer pop punk bands wish they could write a song as catchy and infectious as this one.
Though it sounds like What's My Age Again during the chorus lol
Skye swetnam 🌟 Punk Legend
I'm 22 still rocking out to this!!!
I remember when Avril and skye sweetnam were my Idols.......and Christina Grimmie :(
Im 80 and eating dog food and snails
SKYE IS NOT ANOTHER AVRIL,, She is unique, and the BEST!
Used to be obsessed with skye hah
この曲の入ったアルバム好きです。
この曲も好きです。
アブリルもどきとされてますが、好きです。
This is a great song for anyone who's trying to get over someone who's being a pain in your side, especially one who said they loved you but stabbed you in the back when you were away.
懐かしい大好き😂
I learned how to play guitar with this song, and Avril's "He Wasn't" and "Complicated. This weekend I'll play my fav Skye songs again :)
I love her music videos! They always look like she's having the time of her life! Just rocking out and having fun! :D
She has a nice voice and she’s gorgeous 😍
She is so awesome! I love Skye! She deserves more credit.
my punk rock goddess!

Eu posso até viver em uma geração moderna mas gosto sempre de coisas antigas

She makes me want to write a song... no way anything I come up would be better than her stuff though! She's awesome!

I saw my boyfriend
Hanging with this girl that I hate
He didn't have to tell me
Why last night he was late
I can't believe what you tell me
Your lies have come undone
Now I'm living on the run
Looking out for number one
I took a ride to the city
Had to get out of this place
I just can't stand the pity
When the tears fall down my face
I used to think it was over
But it's only just begun
Now I'm living on the run
Looking out for number one
One day you'll see me
But only when you're dreaming
One day you'll say
I was the one
I hitched a ride on a Greyhound
Stashed away on a train
Bought a ticket for the subway
Playing guitar in the rain
I wanna follow the rivers
To an island in the sun
Now I'm living on the run
Looking out for number one
One day you'll see me
But only when you're dreaming
One day you'll say
I was the one
Late at night
tired to fight
I just might think about him
Right now I'm feeling fine
I'm better off without him
YEAH!
One day...
One day...
One day...
You'll say
I was the one
One day you'll see me
But only when you're dreaming
One day you'll say
I was the one
I know that one day
You'll see me
I'll haunt you when you're dreaming
One day you'll say
I was the one
I'm number one
yesssssss

Once upon a time, music was good. Then, Disney force fed us that Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez shit. All of the music today sucks.

Yes. Her second album, Sound Soldier, came out last year.
way better than avril

Not true, this girl is in my opinion another copy of avril.
