The video begins in 1987, with a group of friends in a Garage discussing the Triangle as a Musical Instrument. The Main Character remarks that he actually admires it, and thinks that it has a future in Music, only to be told from his friend group that while he's a good friend, he's "Not good enough to Rock N' Roll". The video then jumps to 2004, with our Main Character in that same Garage building a Concert Venue, and various Set Pieces that he fills with Rock-stars and various Celebrities, much to the apparent dismay of his significant other, who appears to take care of him in a childlike manner. As the Set Pieces play out, the Garage door opens, to which it is apparently revealed that the group of kids from 1987 are the members of Hoobastank themselves in present day. The band and the Main Character all preform together one final time, each with their own instruments including the Triangle, with cuts from the actual band members to their childlike versions, all congratulating the Main Character while crowding around him. The video abruptly ends with the Main Character alone in the Garage, Abandoned for his inability to move on, and Consumed by his Fantasies. Tying the theme of the song "Same Direction" to the Video. _________ It's kinda depressing the way the video shows it, but Hoobastank makes a great point: Don't let your past define your future, regardless of how bad or good it was. Learn to Move on for yourself. This version beats "The Sequel" Video BY A MILE.
I love Hoobastank so much!!!!!! They're have been my #1 band ever since I was 4 in 2004. I saw them in 95X fest in 2015 and I'm so happy I got to meet the band!!!! Hope I can see them again!
I just watched the behind the scenes for both of these music videos for the song. It’s interesting to see how the MasterCard internship people create it both of the videos. Looked like fun. I wonder if they still are in the music industry now?
Just found out this. I dont get the purpose of this 2nd music video, but I dont care. I LIKE IT. All these years passes and this song still headbangs just as hard as ever
And these lyrics before social media was a huge thing. A lack of patience and collective freak out. Just shows we haven't changed, our behavior has only been amplified.
i remember playing test drive eve of destruction on my ps2, back in 2009 I was 15 yrs old, I was soooooo happy and didnt know :x I love to hear this song because it brings good memories from when I just had to study and do my chores at home, my only duty... i just want those times to come back
@@MelonheadJonny The song can be about whatever you want it to be about, and I'm not stopping you from believing that. However, MY personal interpretation of the lyrics boils down to: Stop worrying about what you did or didn't do, because we're all going to die anyways. I feel this is perfectly represented in the song's chorus: "I'm not ever gonna know If I'm right or wrong 'Cause we're all going in the same direction"
Honestly, this makes The Reason's video better too when you think about it. Sometimes the Villains win and that's how it is, there doesn't need to be an unnecessary sequel where you rehash clips. Same Direction gets to be its own thing here while staying true to the song's message, and that's cool.
And why are you always telling me What you want me to believe? I'd like to think that I can go my own way And meet you in the end Go my own way and meet you in the end I'm not ever gonna know If I'm right or wrong 'Cause we're all going in the same direction
En el inicio me parece "algo" en las notas a The prethender Foo Fighters 2007 😮. Ambas son del 94' correcto? Pero Hoobastank sacó éste tema el 2003 😅. En todo caso, me da lo mismo. Son un par de bandas icónicas. 👍👍 Hay que recordarlas siempre!!
This song was too early for Nvidia Ad's to try and demonstrate it's juxtaposition to the fact the song was never wrong when we only ended up back in the cold war after all.
Some days it works fine, some days it doesn't. When you think about it, all of RUclips is the same story, depending on what your internet connection is like.
Oh, sorry, you're right. But I was actually just asking what changed? If it didn't have any purpose in my comment, what was the purpose in the first comment? And in yours? (philosophic question)
Best song from Hoobastank

I think the raid and the cop chase is better than the fantasy thing
@@MelonheadJonny I also like this version more. Both are awesome, but I prefer the depth of this one.
this truly a classic!!!!!!! 4 ever Hoobastank!!!!
I love Hoobastank so much!!!!!! They're have been my #1 band ever since I was 4 in 2004. I saw them in 95X fest in 2015 and I'm so happy I got to meet the band!!!! Hope I can see them again!
He killing it on the triangle!
😂😂😂
first time i heared this song was in NFL Madden 2005, its been 6 years and i still love this song!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was for 8 years, but not anymore!
Mis grandes recuerdos, nunca dejaré de escuchar esta banda

His voice is heaven.

Great track,greeting from Bulgarian renegade
I didn't know this video exists
Hoobastank is the best rock band in the world and I like the way I roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🔥🤟🏾😛🤟🏾🔥
yeaaaa this video its better than the other
Saya ga pernah liat versi video yang ini di MTV indonesia
All this song reminds me of is madden 2005! been listening to it ever since!!
Diga lo que diga el caretaje, está es la mejor canción de Hoobastank
2000s pop rock ... ROCK....❤
This is definitely one of my favorite Hoobastank music videos, and songs.
Mm mmm, ssweet rush only Hoobastank can gift!

+Marcos Da Silva Get PCSX2 for you computer and download the game at emuparadise and play it on your pc like i do now :D
Do you look like that now in the picture ?
yeah, that me on the pictures. y ?
Does 22 year old people look like that ? If so I look 16 to you
sorry buddy I really didnt get your point... but btw I don't know if a N looks like to be 16 years old, am I looking older or younger ? i didnt get it
miss this kind of song
Only know this song because it was on the Madden 05 soundtrack lol Favorite song on the game
Driven to destruction bought me here! 👌
This video actually has a good meaning - stop living with the past, move forward! Or you'll end up like that dude
It plays into the meaning of the song as well! If you focus on the lyrics, the message is in there.
@@rairose4944 I though the song was about religion

I love hoobastak
Nice video 😊😊
And why are you always telling me
What you want me to believe?
I'd like to think that I can go my own way
And meet you in the end
Go my own way and meet you in the end
I'm not ever gonna know
If I'm right or wrong
'Cause we're all going in the same direction
Our final destination is the same...all living creature will face death except the Almighty...∞

I love this version
the triangle is SQUARE !!!
This was the song my mom listened to the most when she was little
cool video,i love how Hoobastank's songs&&vids tell a story(:
Awesome
I thought the video was the sequel/ continuation of the heist in The Reason?
+wenaldy There's two videos for some reason
First time seeing this one, i like the original one.
forever alone!
Hermosa cancion ,los amo chicos ;D
first time i heard this song in test drive eve of destruction. and its still a good song until now :D
nice one man!
Wow!
Incluir al excluido, es vida.
driven to destruction!! i love hoobastank 🤘
great

Hoobastank isn't a much better friend to Rock n' Roll than the kid playing the triangel. They're not even playing rock n' roll.
Never knew they made 2 music videos to this song.
2018that baby :-)
good guitars
yes, yes you are.
@PlatniumProductions AMEN!
i find this video really depressing for some reason :/
yeah i can feel it man...because that's all we do is go in the same direction...makes life boring...
wtf...??!!
what happened to their other video????
That one was soooooo much better!

I Guess this video was the promo video before they made the sequel one !
Thank you! Test Drive: Eve of Destruction
YESSSS
I was 23 when this came out!
And so? Now you're 28 and what changed? I'ms sorry but I do not understand the purpose of your comment ^^'
.
Oh, sorry, you're right. But I was actually just asking what changed? If it didn't have any purpose in my comment, what was the purpose in the first comment? And in yours? (philosophic question)
The purpose of this is ...I remember when this song came out and you remember all the stuff that happened that year ..n I am actually 33
KharmaDeadimal this song came out in 2004, nice try.
I didnt notice they make alternate versiob
It is me.! So crazy and fantaseous girl
@PlatniumProductions no YOU just need to get a computer than wasnt made last century. took about 2 seconds for mine to load.
@rockerchic1013 yeah, one's live i think, from the still of the video
vevo no debe existir kien lo puso aki joder
2018
@Itachi9000ful
I found it,thank you!
2022
It took less time for me to get their discography than for this video to load. Fucking Vevo.
2019
llevame en tus sueños mi bebe
Lol lmao
@MyRockmetal The only thing that ever gets slowed down when i watch vevo is the word vevo pops up for like a seconds and than it starts
no entendí, es secuela, y también es un video aparte de "The Reason"?
@MrPienish nope, it works fine for me too
2023 i love this song❤
I..need more triangle (you should get the refrence)
Illerminerty
Why they make 2 version of video clip for this song!?
theres like 2 music videos for this song.right?
i think it is... because of what doug said before
driven to destruction anyone?
2014now
2015 o/
Doug reminds me of Rob Mcelhenney for some reason...
heard*
awwwwwwww sad
@UltimteLifeForm Sure dude......
O.o... so... rare?
Madden 05'.
Its Jack Douglass, Jesus Christ!
I like the other vid to this song way better
@MsSmilesandLaughs yeah i thought so
@supersingh42 no that comment is from 7 months ago when vevo was like brand new and slow as hell. now i can deal with it
Is that Joan Jett lol
I saw a video of this song with linkin park at the beginnig..it's possible?
I like Pie
The incorporation of "The Triangle" and the theme makes me believe they are down with the Illuminati.
the only people that could make the triange cool would be the dude from STOMP but thats it
How about STEVIE T?
Does anybody else find this incredibly depressing?
do you still find it depressing
It's like we're from the future.
