Lyrics:
You really think that you're bigger than this?
To the tune of ten thousand lisps
Who'd have thought we'd represent
When I can't take a compliment
Overexposure is the key
And any focus on me
Is appreciated
As it should be
No wonder now
I finally found
The right formula for...
You taught me how, I play the fool
Every mistake that I make
I couldn't have made without you
What's said is done and plain to see
You take it all too seriously
What better way to make an honest mistake
Than a televised hand of fate
When the world closes in on you
A decision would be overdue
Now, nothing left is out of hand
A stronger, jaded man stands
If the world is ending
We toast to it
I'm stronger now
But not without
The right formula for...
You taught me how
I play the fool
Every mistake that I make
I couldn't have made without you
What's said is done
And plain to see
Here's all you get from me
Here's all you get from me
I'm down for whatever
What's there left to wait for?
I'm down for whatever
What's there left to wait for?
Wait for?
I’ll wait!
You taught me how
I play the fool
Every mistake that I make
I couldn't have made without you
What's said is done
And plain to see
Here's all you get from me

What a great time capsule of late 90s - early 2000s clothing.
Back when hardly no one but a few were completely covered in tattoos.
all came from Southern California
Probably the last time in pop culture where you actually had to be there.
@endlessnameless6494You can sweet vintage shirts from the early 2000s now. What’s the difference?
Cotton shirts?
This was the only CD in my college girlfriend's car for like two years and that memory link is so powerful
the girl is confused because all she hears is screachy noise on her end of the phone, great to finally have it on the official channel
i really think you're bigger than this
I remember this video because it was included in a VHS called Punxploitation (2000). It was a VHS made by epitaph records and burning heart records.😊
I bought that one on a vintage mail catalogue we had in Italy because it had Millencolin's fox in it. I only knew them on the tracklist, cause of the Tony Hawk game where No Cigar was on the soundtrack. Pennywise, The Hives, these guys and many more. That vhs was me becoming a punkrocker in one day 😅
What videos were also on this VHS? :)
@@robertwrona3497 Pennywise - Alien
Millencolin - Fox
The Hives - Die Allright!
Midtown - It's Just Rock&Roll
Bouncing Souls - Fight To Live
Samiam - Mud Hill
Dropkick Murphys - 10 Years of Service
The International Noise Conspiracy - Smash It Up
Dwarves - Over You
Beatsteaks - Panic
No Fun at All - Second Best
Raised Fist - Breaking Me Up
Agnostic Front - Riot Riot Upstart
Liberator - Everybody Wants it All
And then there were some interviews between vids I remember. One was with US Bombs' Duane Peters and another one I think it was with the band Choking Victim. I don't actually reckon if there were other ones :)
@insidesteplab wow, what a great list of tracks, thanks!
You guys changed my life, and still are, thanks for everything!
110%
Since 1998!
Seeing this music video in my recommended in 2024 is wild. This band was so formative for me - 'Something to Write Home About' is genuinely one of the best records of all time.
ah… the memories with this band is pure awe and nostalgia…
'If the world is ending
we toast to it!'
One of my favorite songs, I couldn't agree more!
the perfect time capsule of what it was liked to live pre-y2k.
I can't believe they didn't get any music videos for Four Minute Mile. 💔
But this one's super fun!
The "not big enough for radio play" bands (of all genres during the late 90's and early 00's) were sooooo good!
this is nostalgic.. I remember watching this back in 2000, probably downloaded em on Napster or mirc, this is the first song I heard them and blown away.I later on dig their music to the rabbit hole, thanks to the internet and all of you guys who shared this back in the days.. love from Malaysia!!
So many memories. Driving to Kansas. Seen these guys live more than twenty times.... Takes me back to being 22 years old.
We need a festival that features the likes of the Get Up Kids, Alkaline Trio, The Swellers, etc.
She is NOT crazy, her demands were reasonable...although if the TGUK were performing in MY flat, I would be like 'fuck studying, I want a front row seat!'
I'd allow them to play great music while I'm studying tbh
this was on some DVD sampler I had (maybe Vagrant Records >?) I watched this video on repeat ! insane to see it 20+yrs later
I worked at a tattoo studio around the time Get Up Kids went on their anniversary tour. I ended up getting guestlisted for the show after one of the opening bands stopped in. Here I am now reminiscing about a night that made me reminisce about my high school days. Thanks for being there for me!
sweet sweet memories, this band will always be in my heart
名盤が帰ってくるのか!♪
この声は青春だわ〜
レアトラックスのアルバムも好きだったけど、
やはり個の曲が入ったアルバムは格別♪
I was born in 1999, and this is one of my favorite albums of all time.
I graduated HS in 1999, and it's one of my favorite albums, too! 😂
Wow! It's one of my favorite albums of all time aswell. Can you guys tell me your top three or top ten :D
Let’s gooo they finally officially posted this lol
Of all the music I've listened to over the years, I'd say this is one of those 'perfect songs.' Everything comes together brilliantly. The video complements it so well, too. What a great achievement in music here.
Old, beautiful memories
I didn’t properly appreciate how good Matt’s voice was.
he still sounds good
20년만에 찾아 들어왓습니다. 감동이 밀려오네요.
I first heard The Get Up Kids when a clerk at Newbury Comics was playing “Four Minute Mile” in the store back in 1997 or 1998. I bought the CD and immediately became a SuperFan. Followed them since, buying every record. Sadly, missed a rare small show 20 minutes from me shortly before they fired James. I’ve led a charmed life where that is one of my biggest regrets. Now, I am old.
THE MOOG!!!!!!❤
I loved The Get Up Kids in high school, but I had no idea that they had this music video until now. I wish we had every song and music video in existence on youtube back in the early 2000s like we do now.
Lawrence, Kansas is Emo Mecca. Also one of the best places I have ever been, I think the drummer from get up kids had a coffee shop my friend Tom worked at, they had great coffee but even better Bloody Mary’s. Also you can’t beat a North Lawrence Iced Tea, Hamms
Another Year on The Screens brought me here
WOOHOO!!! finally a good upload of this
We finally got a good quality version lol
I wish the Get Up Kids lived next to me
Its finally here!! This song and video embodies everything that was awesome about my teenage years.
1000th Like!
I love the idea that Ryan and Rob are touring again!! Miss you dudes.
Yes
See you in Dallas TONIGHT!!!!
So great!!
Did you get that shirt from Old Navy? I KNEW YOU DID, HELL YEAH, RIGHT ON BIETCH
ME ENCANTO!!
❤
She got the full effect
She has the greatest GuK shirt. Still have never found it anywhere online
You mean 'She got "Reggie and the Full Effect"'?
Damn I missed this! Had it on a compilation of (I think?) Burning Heart Records vids with The Refused, 59 Times The Pain etc. Nostalgia overload 😢❤
So glad they officially posted it!
This band, song and video all totally rock.💯🤘🤘
Great song! Love it since release. Video is so cool!
Awesome 🎉
This takes me back.
This is nostalgia at its peak!🔥
Diretamente de muito longe, brasil! Amo voçês
Love the energy and tone of this.
This takes ya back
this is great, i genuinely thought this was over a decade old, well filmed!
this song and video were released in 1999
I Watched TGUK early august in São Paulo/Brazil!
October 2024 🎧
This album is a 10/10
Que buen tema loco!
Matt was such a goddamn dreamboat.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
the best!
Just how young all these guys look compared to how they do today is so funny. I mean, I know it’s been 25 years but still. I’m glad to see the GUK and Reggie still running strong.
❤❤❤
Banger
This is so good
Amazing band been a fan since 4 minute mile.
So many memories 🫶🏻
Yayy
coool
MOOOOOOOOOOG!
Nice
❤
What a hit! T)
shoes on the couch...girl have some class
50/50 chance if you listened to this album, you had downloaded it from napster
Come on guys, remake the video. It would be awesome and hilarious to see the group in present day remaking this shot-for-shot.
I was at the farewell tour, I was at the reunion tour, I'll see ya'll in Columbus.
I used to record 120 Minutes on VHS tape every Sunday night, and then I'd watch the videos Monday morning before class. I'll never forget my first time seeing this video, then lucking out and learning that TGUK was playing in Seattle just months from then with The Anniversary and Koufax! It was 1999 and I was only 16 years old and it was my first real punk show!! They introduced me to the punk/emo world and I've never been the same. Ya'll have really made my life so much better because of it. Thank you guys ❤❤❤
Nice Moog
Music was so much better and more raw in this era. Not over produced and had more energy
When they say Y2K fashion, this is what I wish it was.
A page of my youth
Better quality than the old VHS-tapes, thank god. 🤓
She has lovely eyes
nineteen hundreds vibes
nice song🤍🤍🤍
1:35 I thought I remember seeing a version of this where James cursed her out.
Bring back bangs!
Bangs have been back
Should have used one of those clear phones or a garfield phone 😂
This album/video was a real turning point for dudes like me who had been listening to nothing but Epitaph and FAT bands. Very suddenly, The Get Up Kids and Saves the Day (along with a lot of other Vagrant artists) changed the musical sensibilities of countless punk kids. Dudes with Screeching Weasel shirts and studded belts quickly traded them in for lip piercings and girl jeans. Yeah, the term "emo" was later bastardized and used as a catch-all for dozens of new rock bands, but what form of art isn't subjected to that type of commodification? It was still a fun time to be young and start a LiveJournal account.
Thrashin' [Movie in the BG at the start]
Wow. She is 10/10. 90's chicks are the best.
Agreed. Even the girl with the glasses is pretty hot! I hadnt noticed before
I mean, this was late 1999.
The get up kids must have got up and went
I saw the get up kids open up for weezer like 22 years ago and it was awesome …saw weezer a couple weeks ago and it wasn’t the same with out the get up kids
Peak
holy sh\\t I feel old
This is a clearer version than the one that was on the vagrant DVD
🦷💎
esto sí es pop punk
Still in love with "the crazy girl from next door". Always have been. Gosh i'd pick her 😅
Emo was always kind of a punchline, so it's funny to look back at this now and think that these guys and their contemporaries seem genuinely cool. Take me back to 1999.
Playback at 1.25x 😮😮
sounds like a Jeff Rosenstock song
lol a very young and skinny James 😮
I’ve seen this music video a few times before. Why did I think the girl in the thumbnail was Scarlett Johansson???
