I am touched by the lyrics to this song. It captures what depression feels like. Ive felt this way. I remember this song growing up. I had no idea the impact of the lyrics
This was totally my song in high school, back in 2011, when genders were still somewhat binary and being just good friends with those of the opposite sex was a bit frowned upon, by both sexes. I hated the cliques, and this song was a seriously good outlet for grief
It sounds so feel good but once you understand all the lyrics you realized how brilliantly written & sad it actually is. Suddenly you don't feel like dancing anymore
The lyrics are open to your point of view. Life is more complicated that just happy or sad. I look at it as a song that there is good to be found even in the mundane! Pinch me! Because life is good, and I’m not dreaming….
I understand exactly what you were trying to convey in your post...... however..... I see it in the complete opposite fashion I see it from a point of I've been there done that and now I'm doing so much better you have to pinch me because I can't believe it's all real!!!!!! There are two sides to every story I try to also find the third..... hahaha LOL Peace Love Light Health and Happiness to you my friend!! 😘💨💋
This song randomly played at the local supermarket yesterday. Itd been years since I had heard it and I dug this song so when I got home I had to find it and give it another spin.....
This song always makes me think of a guy realizing there's more to life then what he's just seeing & he's trying to find more meaning in his life. I love this song 🎶

My mom passed away and I was cleaning out her apartment and I was thinking about how surreal this has all felt and the chorus popped into me head and I dropped to my knees and cried like a baby. Great song, great band. RIP mom.
They have that going for them big time (they write/sing/play tunes that speak to ALL of our emotions:), in spite of all of their great "happy" tunes, I love the wit and intelligence AND biting sarcasm they bring to much of their music!!
The entire second verse about running through the sprinkler in gym shorts, then changing into drier clothes and sleeping away the afternoon is like the perfect encapsulation of my teenage years. Random bouts of frivolity punctuated by long periods of sleeping.
Reminds me of the crazy summer vacations I used to have with my grade school buds. Nothing but swimming in the backyard and long bike rides at the park, playing videogames and laughing hysterically, not a single care in the world. Back then I believed that those days would last forever, and at the time it felt that way...then suddenly you wake up one strange morning and realize that it had all become a distant memory, and you're no longer in touch with the ones who made your childhood so special. Then you start sobbing uncontrollably while trying to grasp the way life is now, but instead of living in the present and trying to maintain some degree of joy you're stuck in the past wishing more than anything to live those days over again. And that's when depression comes by to pay a little visit. Only it isn't temporary.
Reminds me of this one long boring week during summer of 2004, sleeping in and gaming all day was great mind you, but my friends left for their vacations and I was lonely anticipating something exciting, me and dad left for our vacation after that very boring week and it was great 😊
"Mood" ought be a genre. Sub genre: sleepy, warm afternoon. The masculine of "Go Put Your Records On" by Corinne Bailey Rae, or how "Any Lucky Penny" by Nikki Hassman, sub genre: summer twilight
I am so glad Bill wurtz shares about the time he went mainstream. seriously listen to one of his songs. the chorus is in accurate but any verse nails it. I'd you just added his animations it would be done.
"Take your time cause the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile", sorry man, but I think I'm the one person in these comments who's frowning. I don't know what it is, but I REALLY dislike the lyricism of this song; the lyrics either sound so dumb that a 2yr old could write them, or the rhyme scheme just does not flow right. I mean, "there's a restaurant where hungry people like to eat"? Uh, duh. It's a restaurant. Hungry people like to eat at all restaurants. Idk, the lyrics just sound so simple and stupid it really rubs me the wrong way 🥴

Awesome tune by a wonderfully fantastic band. Specially this version of the band.

The exact same thing happened to me yesterday, and here I am lol
Same here. Gotta be years since I heard this

Well hi there Jacob. Didn't think I'd see you here. You have good taste
My favorite! ❤️
It’s definitely sick!!! 0:01

Wow....yup....that’s me
As long as you know that this song is actually about crippling depression
Thats not sarcastic either.. unfortunately this is one of those songs that sounds happy but is not at all 😢great song though

I'm that guy !!! "Try to figure out what all this is for ..." Can't say it better
I remember buying that CD...
Damn fine music.
My Dad and I used to jam to this all the time!
I'm still jamming with him in my heart!
Until Valhalla, Dad!!!
Did he die in battle?
Are you planning on dying in battle?

This song gives me nostalgia of something u didn't live and I miss it
This makes me tear up for some reason....
That's not my tears😥....👈 That's your tears.....its all good. 👍
Well, it is about depression... or perhaps it's just nostalgia hitting you?
That's nostalgia my dude, makes you remember simpler times you never thought would end.
Everything makes me tear up.

Yeah, to me it’s about the depression aspect of my ADHD. I’ve always felt the futility of it is expressed beautifully in this song.
I hear ya. Great way to describe it.> "Beautiful futility" is something I truly get.👏✅
This song will forever live in my soul
This song hits hard for me.

This song used to be on heavy rotation during my senior year in high school. Class of 2001 in the building!!! 🗣
Song is on Charmed season 3 episode 1 during the ending scene. Nice song.
Facts...
And on Scrubs season 2 episode 22 😍
I feel fine enough I guess… considering everything’s a mess, isn’t that the truth
Who Are You? Why Are You Here? The basic existential crisis simply needs you to take a sledgehammer to your conditioning to find out.

Damn, forgot how good this was.

God I remember 2004 when I didn’t exist.. fun times..
But seriously I had that same thing happen to me last year
Certified banger
This what apathy feels like.
I remember hearing this song on one of the now that’s what I call music albums as a kid.
I keep trying to find out what's going wrong in this song. it sounds like it has a deeper meaning.
It's about depression, I think.
@@annabishop2087 Bipolar disorder, specifically.
I thought it was about working in fast food. Then again, not much difference.
@@cayhle how? that doesn't make sense to me. idk what they meant for it to mean, but what you said makes no sense to me.
@@yuyuhi2 it’s about not fitting in life and about depression
1 hour version? Lol this song is great
I have depression so I completely understand this song.
I totally fell for the “underwear” thing the first time lol
Good job with the video.
I just made you say underwear 😂🎉

Good words my friend I agreee
The subliminal message in this song is true as fuck
And that would be?
@@EzraFieldsofStrawberry basically being lonely/depressed
Chronic Depression
@@Bratzy1179 Figures, I love this song, and I'm a metalhead. Depression for many years! Decided to read comments to get the meaning. Figures ! Lol

So cool 😎
My son (7) told me he didn’t like this song, and I said “that cause you’re happy, if you had depression this song would slap” 😂
Nice new sub
heard this for the first time today
Hey
I feel fine enough I guess considering everything’s a mess
