    We had so much fun shooting this video, and Matt is such a sweet cat, his wife is a darling, and Roman crushed it as usual.
    Our 9-cam welded steel box to hold the 9x super8’s was soooo heavy, but it came out great. Our main camera was a 35mm Cameflex, lensed with Zeiss primes pretty wide open. Fun day at Matt’s.

    • @porterism100
      @porterism100 7 років тому +18

      This song and the follow-up single We're the Same (also very good) was played pretty heavily in the spring/summer of 1995 where I was. If I had to guess, it was the Oasis album What's the Story Morning Glory that was released in fall that dictated what alternative music was going to sound like for the next little while, namely Britpop and bands like Oasis, Blur, Elastica, etc. It doesn't exactly jive with Sweet's music which is decidedly more bubblegum in tone. If I remember, Sweet did a slew of soundtrack and compilation album singles (notably he did the Scooby Doo theme song, which I thought was awesome), but I don't think it did much to help his recognition.
      I wish more people knew about Matthew Sweet too.

      Some years later, I was looking for the album at a local record store. I asked the girl behind the counter if she had it, and she replied:” Matthew Sweet?” We don’t keep that kind of junk in stock anymore...it just doesn’t sell”! I immediately walked out. I was totally surprised.

    You don't know how you move me
    Deconstruct me
    And consume me
    I'm all used up
    I'm out of luck
    I am starstruck
    By something in your eyes that is keeping my hope alive
    But I'm sick of myself when I look at you
    Something is beautiful and true
    In a world that's ugly and a lie
    It's hard to even want to try
    And I'm beginning to think baby you don't know
    I'll take or leave
    The room to breathe
    The choice to leave you
    I'll throw away
    A chance at greatness
    Just to make this
    Dream come into play, I don't know if I'll find a way
    'cause I'm sick of myself when I look at you
    Something is beautiful and true
    In a world that's ugly and a lie
    It's hard to even want to try
    And I'm beginning to think baby you don't know
    I'm beginning to think baby you don't know
    There's something in your eyes that is keeping my hope alive
    But I'm sick of myself when I look at you
    Something is beautiful and true
    In a world that's ugly and a lie
    It's hard to even want to try
    And I'm beginning to think baby you don't know
    I'm beginning to think baby you don't know

    First something cheesy: I may get "Sick of Myself"... but never sick of THIS SONG.
    When I heard this song the very first time I was completely blown away. It has the power chords and all that - but it also encapsulates that sentiment that we all feel about another person at one time or another. Still does!

    Nothing is better than power pop. Doesn't matter if it is from the 60's, 70's, or anytime. Search for Big Star for one example.

    I might be off but matthew always felt like one of the best writers to come out of the 90’s. A musical genius imo. He had everly level harmonies and the spine of the replacements. Im sure there were many other apparent comparisons but what an timeless writer. I will never understand why he wasnt bigger than alot of things but such is life. Its a complete mess and he always made me feel a bit of hope or peace while listening. Pure genius

  • @Coldeternal

    I fell in love with this song when it came out and I am still in love with it today. And it is still dedicated to the same person. It is the perfect little gem, capturing a time that will never be again.

    Sweet was one of the top 5 concerts I've ever seen. Something went wrong in the first song, he turned around yelled at everyone in the band and the electricity went off the goddamned chain. I was unsafe and I loved it!!!!!!!! Remaster this bad boy!

    So, reviewing Matthew Sweet's Wiki page, this fellow had a limited amount of commercial success, but got to make music with artists most people would recognize. Matthew Sweet is a journeyman, musician, recording artist, song writer, I'm stunned that I didn't know more about him and his accomplishments. Because I gravitate to 90's punk-pop, invariably the UA-cam algorithm would point me to this song...thank goodness it did.

    Chris was a musical prophet. The closest to understanding God without meeting God.
    His life and words, his music, only God gave him that ability, and we got to witness.

    I remember initially dismissing this album when it came out. I let a friend use mycar & he left the CD in my stereo. It stayed in there for a solid 3 weeks before he made give it back. Such a great album front to back.

    Not only is this a great song, but Matthew Sweet just comes off as a genuinely cool guy, the kind I'd have definitely had fun chillin with back in the day... probably while this song cranked in the background (hey, it's what we did in 1996).

  • @richdeleon7661

  • @greenwave819

    Hearing this in 2021 reminds me of a very important song that had been left off my list of classics. Wow Wow Wow. us old school enthusiasts are hard pressed to have our "solid lists of the greatest" I've done so many internet searches.... stuff like this somehow filters through. Well,not now. I've got this from now until "I'm sick of myself"

  • @Skinsfan597

    I could listen to this song over and over and over. When I lived in Ohio, a college radio station at night would play many alternative rock bands and underground stuff from the entire era, and I would listen to this on a radio under my pillow and sleep to it. I love being a 90s kid!
