Everytime I listen to some early 00s pop-punk, I immediately get to a summer mood. I mean, I don't even think about it, mentally I'm just there. Love that feeling.
Ah the days when the only things me and my friends cared about were girls, getting a summer job, a car, comic books, homework, video games, our favourite shows.
I've been looking for this song and music video for close to 20 years. I only remembered the music video, no lyrics. Tried describing the video to everyone, tried searching for it in every way possible. I finally just found it. I found it. OMG. I found it.
How can you not smile, bob your head, and sing along when hearing this? Music like this is why 90s and early 00s kids had smiles on their faces growing up :)
Cos sometimes I need something heavier, chuggier, angrier, deeper, sadder, slower or something else. This is one flavour of ice cream. That's it. Probably vanilla.
This was my “theme song” every morning back in high school. Literally every morning when my friend picked me up for school he had this song playing...it was as if we were on a tv show and this song was the opening credits. High school...time of your life that doesn’t last a lifetime
@@gigalord8165 Dude there's neat little button(s) they give everyone that visits the site, are you ready or should I give you a minute or two so you can find a crayon to write with?
This song randomly popped up in my head after damn near 20 years of not hearing it. I totally forgot about this song, and now it will forever be in the archive.
@@andrewvoorhees2140 not really. Considerate guys used to get the girl usually right under the "dicks" nose. Though, I'm older now we didn't have social media.
For some reason old music like this is all I’ve been listening to lately. I’m tired of the same old rap and pop songs they come out with and I fucking miss this type of music. Please come backkkkk. This song and Simple Plan’s Your Love is a Lie have been on like repeat whenever I listen to music when I’m driving. It just makes me happy. And makes me miss like late 90’s to 2010/11.
@csmith8988 , you and several others might already know this bit of music trivia, but for those who were also wondering about the references in the video: It's a parody of "The 1986 documentary short, 'Heavy Metal Parking Lot', produced by Jeff Krulik and John Heyn. The film features interviews with several small groups of young heavy metal fans gathered for a tailgate party in the parking lot outside the (demolished in '02) Capital Centre in Landover, Maryland on May 31, 1986, as they prepare for a Judas Priest/Dokken concert being held there later that evening."
No generation will ever compare to this incredible era of music Edit : Since a lot of neckbeards are getting their fragile feelings hurt over my comment, let me just clarify that I in no way was meaning that the early 2000's was the best era, I said no other generation can compare, which is a true statement. What I meant was that it was a heavily unique genre. I'm a huge fan of 80s hair bands and I think no other generation can quite compare to 80s hair metal either, doesn't mean I think the 80s Is the best, just that they're uniquely great.
@@g-urts5518 I'm currently in my senior year, I just turned 18 a little over a week ago. So when I was growing up I caught the tail end of this era. Idk why but this era of music always gives me crazy nostalgia over nothing. Like I'm not nostalgic over anything, it's just the feeling of nostalgia. But I've just always loved this type of music for as long as I can remember, and now I've finally started playing in my own band as the main guitarist so I'm really happy about that.
As someone born in 93 and vividly remember songs like this being in all aspects of 90’s/Early 2000s culture. From Video Game soundtracks to the movies during that time. Truly thankful I got to at least be a kid back then, would have loved to be a Teen/Young Adult back then but oh well.
it's ironic how at that time everybody felts nostalgic about 80's !!! now in 2016 alot of people feels nostalgic about early 2000's including me U_U !!!!
It's funny because (at least in the east like Cali) metalheads and punks did not like each other at all. haha it's weird how it all blended in the late 80s and early 90s
Most of us have had a guy or girl like this. It is a learning experience. Learn from it and move on. I have and now I have the best women in the world.
My sophomore year, my boyfriend at the time knew l loved this song. It came on his radio one night and he called me and went, “Listen to this, Baby!” It was the sweetest thing a guy ever did for me back then. Let me clarify, it was the music not the lyrics l loved

Sum 41 In Too Deep: "Many of the scenes from the video were filmed at the University of Arizona Campus in Tucson, Arizona. The intro scene has them walking on a sidewalk into a building that has a sign that says 'Diving Center', this building is actually the McKale Memorial Center, where the Arizona Wildcats Basketball team play. The scenes of the diving competition were filmed at Hillenbrand Aquatic Center which is directly east of the McKale Memorial Center." I can't find anything about where this video was filmed but you're probably right.
I watch this every morning while getting ready for work, just like the lord intended way back when we were watching this while getting ready for school
Olle Larsson haha this is unrelated to the video but thrift stores are amazing! I found 12 classic rock vinyls from the 70s and 80s for $0.99 too and other punk rock CDs from the 90s and 00s
Bethany Francia sadly I live in Sweden and the cheapest cd/vinyl cost around 20kr at our thrift stores... 20kr is roughly 3$ (if the exchange value is correct)
^ that's not too bad!! I mean it's better than buying a new vinyl that would probably cost $20+. I don't know how much new ones cost over there but I'm pretty sure it ain't cheap!!
Nowadays I generally stick to prog (especially the metal side) and instrumentals in my playlists, yet this oddly remains my favorite song of my lifetime.
@SteveValke , wonder if this song was even played on #DC101 when it was released!? DC101 and Baltimore's #98Rock had a reputation for playing harder rock and metal, unlike my fave station, #WHFS 99.1, which (I hope) played this track a lot. 😎🎸🎤🎶💯
A lot of songs we loved at that time kind of fade away. Some keep popping up here or there, the rest stays in the cobwebs of your mind. Thank you for bringing it back out! And yes it reminds me of my ex Mary. #God bles nostalgia
I saw these guys when I was in highschool 02-03 somewhere in there in Alfred NY and they were by far the best band that night , it's strange hearing them 20 years later
I’m watching this video nearly 2 decades later. By that time, not only did I understand what they are referencing, I discovered Judas Priest, Ozzy (as a musician), and Scorpions since and boy is their music great.
I loved this bizzare american pop stuff. They acted like her studd bf was a jerk when they only want her for her looks 😅 like that makes you the better guy.

Until you realize that this song is about a player and a girl who is actually in love lmao
This was my “theme song” every morning back in high school. Literally every morning when my friend picked me up for school he had this song playing...it was as if we were on a tv show and this song was the opening credits. High school...time of your life that doesn’t last a lifetime

Lol if high school was the time of your life I feel bad for you bro.
Me entering the school with "The Anthem" in my earphones be like:
My "walking to middle school theme song" was "My Friends Over You" by New Found Glory. Made me feel like the main character every time. 😉
@@ianphillip241 if you didn't have a blast in highschool i feel bad for you bro.
This is an example of 2000's pop-rock. Was surprised to see these guys are now 50 years old! Great song and I love the chorus!
You had me there in the first half... I almost thought you were embarrassed by it. Still on my playlist and Im 32 , lol
I didn't believe you at first and had to fact check, I thought this song was only a couple years old.
more pop-punk than pop-rock
The music was so full of life back then
Pop rock? It’s more like pop punk or emo pop 😂 don’t be swayed by the intro heavy metal rules lol I like thrash haha 😂
I can't believe this song turns 20 this year. Fuck. They sure don't make 'em like this anymore.
Now I can buy this song a drink 🍺 🎶
Crazy how fast life goes by
It's classic rock now.
I forgot this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yesssssssssssssssssssssss I found treasure!
+Michael Anthony I had to watch again American Pie to remember this song!!
Same here, remembered my sister listening to this when i was 5 years old. I found it back last week at 20 and felt strong nostalgia 15 years later

Yes... Most definitely a treasure...
They were really proud of "Too stoned, nintendo." Though given my own experiences, it actually makes sense

2024 anyone?
Yahhssss
Heck yeah I was maybe 15-16 when this song came out!
here

Yo !!!!
I loved this song so fucking much when it came out. I remember listening to this CD in my walkman on the bus lmfao.
"All that punk shit sucks, it doesn't belong on this world!"
How dare you.

Gavin Well, we have grunge to thank for that.
American hi-fi is like a band that is perpetually in the friend zone.

0:20 he really snuck that "American Hi-Fi" in there, my favorite metal band
My first concert I ever went to. 16 years old, living my best life! Take me back!
I grew up listening to this in high school. Driving to school and driving to work.
This is still a bloody good song
LOL The intro is so funny. I am a fan of Heavy Metal/Hard Rock (80s) and the Metalheads are like that.
I'm sure that was at the beginning of the Less Than Jake video
Which song?
It's actually off a REAL little document ry call Heavy Metal Parking Lot.
Rocky Stradlin all my friends are metalheads??
CTWolt What do You mean?
This song is still great even after 20 years from hearing it before.
I saw them for free in the ATL in the early 2000's and they were awesome rocked the block
American Hi Fi is my favorite heavy metal band.
I would put them right up there with the Scorpions, Priest and Dokken😂
I saw these guys at Mich State with Phantom Planet when I was in college...best $10 ticket I've ever purchased 👍
You heard him, heavy metal is f***ing amazing!
POP PUNK IS FUCKING AMAZING
Both are amazing!
***** you're trash
***** If you think they're pop you need serious help

Anyone else think that the location for Sum 41 'In Too Deep' is filmed at the same place as the start of this video?
It looks like it's the same exact place.

I can't find anything about where this video was filmed but you're probably right.
The guy on DC101 shirt supposed to be my brother. The original footage was shot in 1986 by parking lot heavy metal.
