20+ years later and this song hits way closer to home than I would have ever imagined. Eff.
Right? This and Gone Away both feel so much more impactful in my 30s than they did when I was younger. Funny, since it's usually the opposite with pop-punk bands (save for Green Day's Longview, which is too damn real when quarantining, haha).
Man.. You know, everything you just wrote is 100% hits home.. This world is gone to hell. The 1st verse of this song is deep. 20 years ago you (I) really wouldn't have bothered listening too deep to the lyrics and flip of the coin here's the real world.
Preach.
Indeed.
F
He wrote the song after going back to visit his parents and found out a bunch of the people he grew up with ended up like this while they went on to be rich and famous. Gotta do "Self Esteem", most popular song.
Bad Habit after that
This is actually a kind of response song to the song by the who when they wrote the kids are all right. It was a statement of how things had changed since back then and how we live in a different world now and we need to fix it.
I think the people popping out of each other are showing how all the lives are connected. It's a song about how the neighborhood kids didn't grow up the way they thought they would
I also took it to mean we all start out in the same spot, but our lives can branch off in so many different ways
The singer is a biologist. Anatomically, that's how babies are born.
It’s about remembering how when you were kids and everything was great and all the neighborhood kids were happy and free and full of potential and then you go back to your old neighborhood when you’re grown and all the kids didn’t turn out ‘alright’. They all have grown up problems now and some of them didn’t even make it. 🙁
This instantly takes me back to high school. i cant' believe this is from 23 years ago. man, I'm old now.
Old is when you learn The Offspring is actually older than you..... 1984 they started! 🤯
Blows my mind, just turned 38 and remember when this came out like it was yesterday
Me too...
@@republicofcasuals Old is when you barely older than the lead singer, and this band you thought of "music the younger kids are making that isn't too bad"
Or old is when your elderly parents start listening to David Bowie records, because he put out that album right before he died, and you have an awkward "how can you not know about David Bowie?" conversation with them realizing David Bowie was almost as old as they are,
@@pyrovania 😄 Yea. I just checked and he is almost my moms age, even other band's i grew up listening to like Blink 182, Greenday and Korn are creeping into their 50's..... can someone hit the pause button already!
It's a sad reality. Kids expect the most out of life, great expectations. When they get older, real life happens and it's not what they thought it would be. This song always makes me sad.
Likewise
the sad thing is, the older i get, the more relevant this song becomes.
I feel you...
Imagine writing such lyrics, that with the decades passing, instead of they becoming a mist of the past, they've become every day a bit clearer.
Was a teenager when this came out and it honestly held true alot of people i knew growing up have either died gone too prison or had to move away to get a better life shit even my own brother od'd while i was away in the navy
@@xblackxabyssx1983 Yeah I was a teenager too and listened to this record on repeat. Now we’re grown and one entire friend group from my school are gone because of heroin. All of them. It’s so sad.
It's a pretty universal experience, The Offspring just articulates it really really well.
"Gone away" is a solid song by the Offspring. But then again, I basically love everything they've put out.
Gone Away is legit their best song imo
The Offspring usually does have a message in their songs. Have a marvelous day ✌
*stumbles over words* *smacks head* *stumbles more* "I'm broken...."
Relatable content brother lmfao. Great song, great reaction.
This song really hits home for me. lived in a small town and what he sings about is the kind of stuff that happens in little towns, Everyone wants out of there but some fall in that rut and cant get back out
Gone Away is probably the most emotional song of theirs
I love Gone Away and Gotta Get Away
Gone away prob is.
So Far Away? No, no. Your thinking of “Gone Away” off their album Ixnay on the Hombre.
That’s A7X
@@davidireland3777 you’re right I screwed up
‘Self Esteem’ or Come out and Play’ from The Offspring, and you’re right there’s always a message
This band is full of bangers, they dont have any songs that aren't bangers if we are honest. Having said that, their lyrics are ALWAYS saying something. It could be serious, humorous, darkly humorous, sarcastic, whatever, but it will ALWAYS say something relevant, so pay attention to those lyrics. Much more Offspring. Self Esteem, Gonna Go Far Kid, Gone Away. All 3 of those should be listened to with lyrics up.
I'm 18, wasn't even alive when most of their music was made. I can tell just from the past week from listening to them and becoming a fan of their's, they don't miss. To quote a famous Irishman, "banger after banger after banger."
Dr. Dexter Holland (lead singer) has a PhD in molecular biology and is helping research the cure for cancer.
The Offspring always puts out bangers
Many musicians also are are talented in other ways of life..not just one dimensional cartoon characters...
What!!! That's awesome! I didn't know that! 😮😮 😃 Thanks for the info :)
He would have gotten it in the early 90s but he stopped his studies because the band hit it big. He went back years later and finished his PhD in 2017.
He did a whole big thesis on the HIV virus. Dude is a bad ass.
I also happen to own one of his guitars. But I'm not biased or anything haha.
If I remember right, I think every member of the band is an Ivy Leaguer, so they are all smart. But Yeah, a molecular biology PhD? Ultra smart.
Yeah, thinking back to the place you grew up and the friends you had. Then fast forward to where they are today. I'm only 40 and some of my childhood friends didn't end up ok. Some have left this earth. Another went to jail. His sister got shot in the head in the Vegas massacre.
The song is relatable.
The Offspring - Self Esteem . Got a strong message too !
An a hell of bass riff.
Childhood trauma does it, dude. A lot of kids aren't alright.
if you haven't already, you should check out their older tunes...Come out and play (keep 'em separated) and Self Esteem.
Yes! I love the older stuff more, maybe because I was in high school in the 90's but for me it was way better 😉
Also "Gotta Get Away"
That is the Offspring. By the way the lead singer is DOCTOR Dexter Holland. He finished his PHD while touring with the band. His dissertation was on RNA sequencing in HIV. A song you have to listen to is "gotta get away" and also "Self Esteem" Gotta get away first. Oh, and he has flown solo around the world.
getting a Rockefeller degree.... does not make you smahrt
This song made so much sense as I got older. I've lost a lot of old friends (more than I can even count) to suicide, drug overdoses, sent to prison and one was murdered with her sister by her sister's ex-husband.
It sucks to see people you grew up with die so young or screw up and go to prison.
On another note, Offspring friggin' rocks!
The lyrics of the song is the reason why i dont go back to my old neighborhood, sad to see nothing has changed.
I've been a fan of them for years so happy you found them.
"I'm broken..." Hey man, everyone's been there, the brain and mouth doesn't always play nice together.
I never cared much about the Offspring lyrics (easy when it's not your mother language), the music just rocks. After all these years i learnt that there are lyrics worth listening to lol
Such a good rabbit hole to go down, LOVE the offspring 💙
This is my jam. Had a chance to meet them in the mid 90's, and jam with them. Wife was pregnant, and tripping. Lost a chance to meet a famous musician. Women are crazy :( Love the Offspring.
I've never heard of a single person tripping pregnant in the 28 years since I first tripped. Holy shit O.o
@@NotBenCoultry no, she's not strong enough to take acid, lmao. She was just hysterical, because she didn't trust the friend who was driving, and it was a 70+ mile trip. To this day, she's too ashamed to talk about it. My buddy knew the band when they were still just a local band. They practiced in his grandma's basement.
It took me a second. I’m like- nah, he wouldn’t be laughing about the old days when his wife was tripping while pregnant. He must be talking about hormones and attitude “tripping”- not wanting to go out and do shit and missing a crazy once in a lifetime opportunity as a result.
Whew.
Almost had me a little shook lol
And yo- that’s awesome. I don’t know if I would be thrilled to really get to meet or hang out with some of the bands and artists that I really love- I’m realistic and I know that while the art can be beautiful and can really capture something in you, it doesn’t always mean the artist behind it is going to be anything like you’d expect or imagine. Sometimes it’s nicer to not have our bubbles burst.
All that said- there are a few bands out there that I always imagined were just as authentic, real, and awesome in person and real life as they were in my head lol and the offspring is absolutely one of them.
So glad to know it’s true
@@taniele84 @bobbyfan418 OH holy shit hahahahahahahahaha
@@taniele84 yeah, she was never the type for acid or mushrooms. She was 6 months pregnant, and we were only 18. It was definitely hormones. You're probably right about meeting them. But it was only supposed to be Noodles, and Ron, the guitarist and original drummer.
Told ya homie. These (makes me sick saying it) "oldschool" punk and alt rock bands sang so much fuckin truth that was relevant back in the day but even more today. Keep this train rollin in this rock direction. Try prison song by system of a down. They all are telling the truth hidden in media
This is pop punk though.
I agree im 16 and I wish there was artists like this today.
Old school punk? Eh, offspring's more like Middleschool punk. But they were around in the 80's going to Social D shows.
Yeah this is from a punk rock aesthetic of making songs about how the world is a messed up place and dont forget it, but dont forget you have one life, make the most of it. Try the Jim Carroll song " People who Died"
Great choice Mr. Video! This band is great and some say they arent legit, but they really are.
For more try their song ..'Come Out And Play (Keep them seperated!)' spelling
The number of songs like this one being thrown in my face right now is intense. I'm learning how to pay attention, making some changes.
That's the power of music!! Good on you..... Always keep learning!!! Peace....
Gotta step back & pay attention to what's going on around you
@@stoneyp3748 Already reading the code, fresh up from a bad dip.
I can't listen to this song without wanting to watch Disturbing Behavior and The Faculty back to back.
Simply put, this song is about the promise of childhood destroyed by the difficult reality of life
Try to keep in mind that the weirdest music videos were the artists playing with new tech. That shit was next level once upon a time lol
Yea, just like Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Californication and hoping the PS2 had graphics similar 😁
@@republicofcasuals IKR? I was also thinking some sweet sweet Black Hole Sun
@@debbyemerson3877 Yea, good song and a good video. Not sure if i needed them creepy faces in my head again though 😁
For me this song is about the disillusionment of what your hopes and dreams are when you're young, then grow up to find out it doesn't always work out like we expected! Love all their work. "Staring at the Sun" is one of my all-time favorites!their lyrics are always killer!! 😃
Self esteem by The offspring
The one thing I know about them currently is the lead singer, Dexter Holland has his own line of Hot Sauces...I was gifted them for Christmas and they are delicious!! Lol. 🔥🔥🔥
He also has a PhD in molecular biology.
@@RyanAcidhedzMurphy oh yeah, I forgot about that! What an impressive dude!
This song still raises hairs on my 90s girl arms... I just want to crank it and sing at the top of my lungs...
To simplify, as kids we have hopes and dreams and the world at our feet, then reality throws you a curve ball as we grow up and some continue to swing for the fences and some unfortunately strike out
The Offspring are too good!
Back in the days when the internet wasn't a thing, messages came in music, TV shows and milk bottles...
I loved this song in high school and had no idea it was about me. All of the dreams you had and life has other plans for you.
Yeah man, this song is hella deep. Probably due to being based on actual events. I was a Navy brat while growing up. We lived all up and down the west coast and Hawaii until I was 18. Military families move every 3 years or so. So as a kid, you make lots of friends from all over. Of course you dont keep up with everyone forever, which might actually be a good thing. I'd prefer to remember people how they were vs what they became.
If you’re liking the punk rock vibe, check out the previous recommendations I made (Bad Brains), and also The Dead Kennedys’ “Kill the Poor”. Their lyrics were known for being sarcastic and satirical in tone. I feel like the song itself has stayed pretty relevant despite being close to 40 years old.
ONE FINE DAY best Offspring song ever
3:48 homie trying to figure out this mess had me dying😂😂
This hits me hard af because most of the people I grew up with on my block are either in jail, addicted ro drugs had kids way too damn young and their kids have ended up the same way in jail, having kids while they're kids growing up way too soon doing drugs. Few of the ones I grew up with have broken out of the cycle or done anything meaningful with their lives.
Ya man! Been waiting for this one!
Looking forward to more Offspring reactions! They're a fantastic band.
As always, here's a list of tunes for you to check out:
"You're Gonna Go Far, Kid"
"Want You Bad"
"Dividing By Zero/Slim Pickens Does The Right Thing And Rides The Bomb To Hell"
"I Choose"
"The Meaning of Life"
"Dirty Magic"
As I'm sure you've seen in the comments they have an extensive library, so after a few more reactions, I'll throw a few more your way.
Keep up the great vids. Always a treat to watch.
Although I don't remember any specific reference in this song to it, the name is a call back to a classic rock band. The Who- the kids are alright.
Please, react to Trip-Hop: Massive Attack- "Unifinished Sympathy"
Best Offspring song right here
This song always makes me think of when growing up every was kind of happy with big dreams, but now some of them never went anywhere, some are dead from over dosing, some are strung out, not what we though life was going to be. Nothings free. We realize too late that there is a lot of hard work to get out of the hole we dug for ourselves.
Wow I haven't heard this since that era lol
Ha tru that
Sudden urge to play a Tony Hawk game🤟😄🛹
Song about the reality’s of life, when we were young everyone was running round, promising lives ahead of us, big dreams then life kicks in, people die, get addictions, bad relationships, unreleased dreams
You might as well do The Who: "The Kids Are Alright" (1965).
That's what I was going to say. Lol. Glad I read through the comments.
@@mgordon1100 Me too!!!.... It only makes sense!!! :)
Pretty sure this was a call back to that.
Green Day references the kids are alright in one of their songs.
@@whatsername123 I don't have any doubt. Those guys were born in my era of mid 60s to 70. We grew up to love The Who.
@@whatsername123 I didn't want to speak without knowing but, I always kinda thought it might be.... good to know I'm not the only one!
Can’t wait or hope you do “why don’t you get a job?” I think you would like it. It’s a funnier one. Also self esteem, come out and play, original prankster, she’s got issues, hit that
Next do You’re Gonna Go Far, Kid or Hit That
yeah its gotta be next down the offspring rabbit hole.
I miss Hit That. Love that jam
omg thanks for reminding me about Hit That
My faves
YGGFKid is one of my all time fav songs.
man, I used to love this song when I was young (I am not american/english native, so i didn't understood the lyrics), nowadays, with a lot of friends without jobs, depressed and addicted, this song has another meaning... I am a 'kid' from this time, a 90s generation or whatever they called us nowadays (generation y, x, z and that kinda of thing) and yeah, we are not alright
The offspring was one of the first punk bands I listened to, too many good songs to recommend. “Bad Habit” and “Gotta Get Away” are ones you should check out next
It shocks people when they hear The Offspring started in 1984
Needed to hear that today on my birthday. Seen many of my GenX folks waste their potential and their lives.
The song Rings true for almost everyone. Think about your high school friends and where they are now and where they aren't now. Come out and play, Gotta Get Away, original prankster.
A couple other good songs, which I probably already recommended, "Why Don't You Get A Job?" or "Walla Walla" by The Offspring - You'll definitely get a kick out of "Why Don't You Get A Job?" lol
This is a good band. I love them... 🌹Much love Mr.Video 💋😉
Love that 1980's wallpaper. Great choice Leo.
Oh i remember this song i love it , it always make me wanna move ❤❤
I can’t hear The Offspring without being whisked back into a game of Crazy Taxi.
It is a deep message. He's singing about the kids he knew and grew up with in his hometown. After moving away and going back to his hometown much later after he was grown, he found out "The Kids Weren't Alright".
Growing up. The anthem 😂
🤘🏽 keep on bumpin mr video
"Self Esteem", "She's Got Issues", "Why Don't You Get A Job", those are all classics by The Offspring check 'em out.
Im telling you... Come out n play by Offspring to get your mind off the heavier stuff
I love the song “Low Self Esteem” by the Offspring
This song still has the same amount of power as it did when it was first released back in 1998. That fact is truly tragic, but it does show how honest and masterful The Offspring truly are as a group.
LMAO "A-double-double-double-double WB!"
20+ years later and this song is still kicking me in the throat.
LOVE The Offspring... literally DECADES worth of jams.
What a tremendous nostalgia it gives me to listen to this song because it takes me back to my high school years in the late 90s and that video is brutal. I always loved the sound of this band
My favorite Offspring song is "Gone Away". His vocals in the song reflect the pain he feels. This song I relate to even more so since my husband passed. Because I feel that so much.
Oh to look back... Such a mix of emotions thinking about the early days! You have to react to Why Don't You Get a Job next, pleeeeease!!
2nd grade all over again
Cruelest dream, reality.
I discovered this song on The Faculty soundtrack.
This song is so relatable. I grew up in South Florida in a neighborhood that had some 15 kids that were all the same age and most were on the same block. Many lives have been shattered. Broward county was ground zero of the oxy crisis. There are only a few of us left. I am only 43 and nine of them have passed. One family..the little brother passed..big brother went spiraling and died..mom died of heartbreak. My former best friend is raising kids and grandkids. Two of us ended up surviving and thriving. So sad. I have whole stories that all the people are gone. Stay with pot.....never cross over💖💖✌
The offspring-Gone Away
Dam, a real rocking song. Makes you want to move around & jump on the couch 🤣🤣🤣 oh i forgot my couch is on flat, ivebeen jumping on it way to much.😜😜 mr. V 🥰🥰
"OK, I put the weed out" - these are the words of a man, defeated.
Probably My MOST Listened to Band growing up !! I was born in 89, so the Rise of the Offspring was perfectly timed !! This Song is GREAT !! Now I'm older and have seen how everyone from my neighborhood has turned out... It's CRAZY !!
Was always my favorite Offspring track.
You got to check out The offspring-Gone Away 🤘
This song is kind of a reply to a '70s song by The Who called "The Kids Are Alright."
Some good older ones by them are "Self Esteem," "All I Want," and "Come Out And Play."
There's a dark message yet the song is so kick-ass!
That's the Offspring. Sooooo gooood.
The song is about how we all used to have such big dreams as kids and the fact that 99% of dreams don’t work out and life takes over and reality hits. He is just talking about the most extreme cases because if you think about it in a graduating class of 200-700 kids even though it’s a small portion statistically still many of them end early and tragically.
Ok, am I missing something or ...? This is a new place and a new sofa but nobody has even mentioned it or asked.
I believe this might have been filmed while he was in California
The couch surfer dude advertise ment man from craigslist. Don't forget get Funny ohson the munchies run
Bro this song is over 20 years old. Some things never change.
Bought this album because I liked the cover art...was stoked when I heard it!
This song makes me tear up! Every time! God bless the teenagers 💕
“What the hell is going on?” I screamed He Sings That!
Such a great song. Offspring are one of those bands that had amazing early stuff and then got sillier as things went on. This was a gem off one of their last serious albums.
Dude, you got the weed too fuckin much... and thats GREAT !!
I'd love if you started reacting to more Pop punk like this. Green Day, Blink 182, etc.
Dare we introduce him to Bad Religion? They're DEEP.
Oh, that would be amazing. What would be a good beginner song? "Sorrow" is often done, as is "American Jesus." I don't know. It can be a lot when you aren't used to the sound. But definitely worth a deep dive. They have been my favorite band since I discovered them in the 90's.
