I'm not ashamed of liking this movie or soundtrack. As a matter of fact, I think Josie and the Pussycats rock a lot harder than most of today's mainstream artists. :)
My favorite all-girl "bar band" of the late 90s was THE FRIGGS (mostly based in NYC). When I saw the movie, it kinda of reminded me of them, if they'd gotten a big record label contract. Palmyra Delran is still doing FABULOUS stuff, and in addition, is an internet-radio DJ on weekends.
It wasn’t promoted well - it looked like it was gonna be a so-so teenybopper/nostalgia thing, like the Scooby Doo movie with Matthew Lillard, instead of the hilariously insightful pop satire it was. Considering how savage it was towards the whole “star-making” MTV game, ya gotta wonder if Hollywood sorta decided to let it die. In an alternate universe, Kay Hanley won an Oscar for Best Song and the movie spawned a whole extended universe of clever reinventions of Hanna-Barbara properties.
because the movie looks retarded but actually has deep satire and undertones. sucks because it's really a smart movie and the promotions made it look like some typical 90s crap flick.
Idk how this movie had such an influence on me. I begged my mom to take guitar lessons so I could learn all the songs. I did. My teacher was so nice and happy. I decided to quit musical theater and go to school for music ed. I’ve been a music teacher for 8 years. I love it so much.
It took SIX whole hours and FIVE long days for (FOUR) all your lies to come undone. And those THREE small words were way too (TWO) late. Can't you see that I'm the ONE... ============ and that my friends is why this song is so catchy...
I remember seeing this for the second time in theatres on my 11th birthday in 2001. I was the Melody in my BFF trio and we were trying to start our own band, True Lies. It never got off the ground, but I took guitar lessons because of this movie, which in turn led me to joining my junior high's band, which led to me joining my high school's marching band. I even wore my officially-licensed pink leopard cat ear headband to school every single day for two years, which all the cool kids are wearing these days, but back then, it's how my first love Chris started talking to me. It's amazing to look back on this movie, now that I'm 32, and realize just how much of my life it changed singlehandedly. To all my other 90s babies, if you're reading this, I hope all the dreams you had back in 2001 are coming true. Keep rocking, best of luck, and much love. ❤
@empac8631 I thought so! I got made fun of for it quite a bit at the time and eventually the school banned such headwear because of how often the other kids stole them from me. I ended up wearing them in one of the front belt loops of my jeans until I moved on to junior high. It's insane the random things you remember!
Follow by: One, you're like a dream come true Two, just wanna be with you Three, girl it's plain to see That you're the only one for me and Four, repeat steps one through three Five, make you fall in love with me If ever I believe my work is done Then I'll start back at one.

Actually, they all had to learn to play their instruments aswell as the songs for the movie. The Director wanted it to be "as real as possible" for the ladies playing their instruments, they also went through vocal training.
Yes they went to band camp and they did really good on the learning to look authentic when playing. Love it. So much better than just completely faking it. However they didn't learn fast enough to actually play so it is dubbed. Kay from Letter to Cleo sings. Still a fantastic song and they did a great job. Even drunk and drug addled Tara Reid did pretty good.
I watched Josie and the Pussycats as a kid back in the 70’s. Loved them, especially Josie. I have a thing for redheads ❤️. When this movie was first announced, I was excited. I wasn’t expecting it to be so hilarious. Those 3 actresses really brought it together and played their parts well. I was disappointed that Sebastian wasn’t in it.
When I was kid and I first saw this movie, I loved it so much I went and got my hair cut like Josie, But my mom wouldnt let me dye it red. Even though I love my long hair, and short hair usually looks bad on me, Im SO tempted to do it again. And this time I can do the red.
I remember watching this. I wanted Josie's CD player but woah, it cost $130 used on Ebay! I sometimes wonder if the movie's popularity caused the price to shoot up. Interestingly it was completely waterproof. That's why it had to weird flaps. They clamp the lid shut so water can't seep in.
It took 6 whole hours 5 long days 4 all your lies to come undone. And those 3 small words, were way 2 late. Cause you can’t see that I’m the 1 Love this movieeeeee as a kid ❤️
Got this movie as part of a three pack from Wal-Mart and it's by far the best of the bunch. I agree that it's humor is lost on some people because they simply won't give it a chance.
I liked their version of horror when tara kept dropping the soap. Not in that perverted way in that damn they really made her be a ding bat bc she easily got distracted from not being scared to heing scared again. Whole movie was an entire ad
I remember watching this in tiny pieces with my sis whenever my mom went out to the store or something. My first PG-13 movie XD my sis was always getting me into trouble 😂

8-5-2020 the world is crazy life is up and down but when I hear this song it reminds me of my childhood had a big crush on the drummer she's probably the reason why I'm in love with blondes sometimes you need an old favorite to make the world and not seem so dark
Josie and the Pussycats came out during the hey day of the pop punk era which rode very strong between 1994-2003. But like most other fads, it died sadly.
90s-early 2000s The era of grunge, nu metal and pop-punk Coincidentally this was the last era where Rock was a dominant genre with their own radio stations and such After American Idiot by Green Day, Rock never really reclaimed its musical eminence The same kids that were the chief consumers of 90s-early 2000s Rock had already transitioned to Rap by that point...mainly on the back of Eminem
Hey what a coincidence me too! Wel I'll just say me three. :) I think this was on TBS? I believe. Man its like I haven't heard these songs and watch this movie in years what great happy memories this movie and its soundtrack brings. This is one of my top favorites at the moment.
When I was in 4th grade I was obsessed with this song (I still am) and I would sing this song all the time, lol! I would evn hum it during tests and stuffs lol! :D

I get this comment is almost older than me, but this rocks harder than ANY modern music. Especially mainstream music.
Still true in 2023
You are 100 percent correct. Now go buy a B52s album those girls were funny talented and just wonderful.
It's one of the most honest movies about the Record Business ever made.
This is such a fun movie with an uplifting, kick-ass soundtrack. How did it ever bomb?!
it bombed?.. 53% on Rotten Tomatoes I guess it did. I always loved it.
It wasn’t promoted well - it looked like it was gonna be a so-so teenybopper/nostalgia thing, like the Scooby Doo movie with Matthew Lillard, instead of the hilariously insightful pop satire it was. Considering how savage it was towards the whole “star-making” MTV game, ya gotta wonder if Hollywood sorta decided to let it die.

Honestly I loved this movie as a kid music but now that I’m 23 and watch it it’s all one big advertisement of movie.
Granted it's messaging smacks you in face with skillet... but the cast had great charisma and energy. It was also hilariously funny.
because the movie looks retarded but actually has deep satire and undertones. sucks because it's really a smart movie and the promotions made it look like some typical 90s crap flick.

it took me 20 years to realize the chorus is a countdown
Holy shit
Just met all 3 of them today earlier! I feel so lucky they did their reunion in DC

Were your cat ears special, though?

This movie is totally Jerkin'!
Carnage337 Ooh that's naughty
Josie and the pussycats are the new dujour

Josie and the Pussycats is the best movie ever.
It's 2022 and this song just popped in my head. 90s baby here 😊
Just made my daughter watch it w/me...as awesome as it, I cringed a bit like was this really for kids 😳
As a drummer myself I always loved seeing Tara Reid wailing on the drums.She has the cutest smile especially in the opening song.
All the 90s babies knew this movie
hahaha...
I didn't know it..
Hell yes!!!
I’m born in 2005 and Ik this song😂
True
It took 6 whole hours
and 5 long days
4 all your lies to come undone.
And those 3 small words

You can't see that I'm the 1.
yay!!

I love Rahcel Leigh Cooks hair in this movie!
The soundtrack is really great, too.
She is gorgeous
Very definition of an underrated movie and band, letters to Cleo. With the crap released these days even back door lover would be a top 10 single
This song is always gonna bop
This tune should have blown up the charts for real, what a kick ass tune with so much energy
the soundtrack apparently did sell pretty well.

but you're a vegetarian...

I'd buy the raw cuts
@@thewolfandbird Rachel can sing. She just doesn't have the right sound or a strong enough voice for the sound they wanted, if I remember correctly.
They all sang backup vocals on most of the songs. They sang on this one.
I can't count how many times I watched this movie when I was a kid. I really loved this song.
I remember seeing this film when it first came out and got my grandfather to purchase me the soundtrack on cassette after the film was over at FYE 😂😂
I watched Josie and the Pussycats as a kid back in the 70’s. Loved them, especially Josie. I have a thing for redheads ❤️. When this movie was first announced, I was excited. I wasn’t expecting it to be so hilarious. Those 3 actresses really brought it together and played their parts well. I was disappointed that Sebastian wasn’t in it.
This to me is a great look at early 2000s fashion, the clothes, hair, and accessories it’s all perfect.
To all my punk rock prom queens and kings!!
20 years later and this goes so hard.
Wow, that last chorus really hit hard. Great song writing.
IT SLAPS OKAY
They are great!! Those 3 small words did it in for me! Love them all!
This movie and its plot - way ahead of its time 😂
The 2000s called. They coming back better than ever
When I was kid and I first saw this movie, I loved it so much I went and got my hair cut like Josie, But my mom wouldnt let me dye it red. Even though I love my long hair, and short hair usually looks bad on me, Im SO tempted to do it again. And this time I can do the red.
You did it?
I did the same thing when I saw this movie. Got the haircut, but couldn’t dye it. Now I have long hair, but it’s red. I love it.
can't believe this comment is 10 years old :']
2019, I still love this movie and I still love this song.
Wow, blast from the past. I had the soundtrack and everything. This was my favorite song and it still holds up
I remember watching this. I wanted Josie's CD player but woah, it cost $130 used on Ebay! I sometimes wonder if the movie's popularity caused the price to shoot up. Interestingly it was completely waterproof. That's why it had to weird flaps. They clamp the lid shut so water can't seep in.
I will never not stop to acknowledge the epicness of this movie!! This was FAR ahead of it’s time!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
So much better than the band on "Riverdale"
Word
If you watch Riverdale f*** Riverdale watch Sabrina
But I do agree with you
@@judewashere3676 I couldn't agree more.
Love both them
They are perfect and lots of fan love.
Wow how did I forget about this song for almost 20 years?
ROSARIO DAWSO IS SUCH A ROCKSTAR TO ME IDEK

I loved this movie when I was 9 years old and still love it today and I've never stopped loving it.
I suddenly want a big mac
I listened to the album over and over again and rewatching the movie and it still hold up from watching at 6 to now still a amazing movie
Rachel Leigh Cook's smile at the end slays me.
Love that movie and song. I still have the vhs. Now bought the Blu-ray and I watching it a the moment. ❤
i had this movie on vhs :D
i recently bought it on dvd and rediscovered my love for this movie
Got this movie as part of a three pack from Wal-Mart and it's by far the best of the bunch. I agree that it's humor is lost on some people because they simply won't give it a chance.
I still love the songs from this movie. I really wish I had kept the soundtrack :C
I have this movie on dvd and I watched it recently! I remembered how much I liked it! 8D

The early 2000's were the best.
2024 anyone??
One of my favorite movies and soundtracks ever
I love it!!! this was my favorite movie and Favorite song when it came out when I was 4th grade.
I must be getting soft in my old age
cant help but smile to this song
and the fact that they recorded all the songs themselves....

I remember watching this in tiny pieces with my sis whenever my mom went out to the store or something. My first PG-13 movie XD my sis was always getting me into trouble 😂
Same for me with my cousin! I remember rewatching it years later and thinking "wow, a lot of this went way over my head back then" 🤣
Great music, amazing movie! Any movie that makes fun of the culture and the people most likely to be interested in it deserves our respect.
"If I wasn't a key player in this whole conspiracy to brainwash the youth of America with rock music, we could totally date!" Watched This Like A 1,000 Times It Was Me And My Best Friends Fave
They were probably the main inspiration for paramore
I watched this in a critical movie class in high school. Weird go think this thing is one of the reasons I'm so critical of movies
I totally forgot about this movie. Such different paths for these women.
I watched the movie maximum 3 times, and I sing this song constantly.
The best!!!!!! 90s babies know what’s up. I love the music still awesome movie ❤🎉
8-5-2020 the world is crazy life is up and down but when I hear this song it reminds me of my childhood had a big crush on the drummer she's probably the reason why I'm in love with blondes sometimes you need an old favorite to make the world and not seem so dark
Their music always made me feel better when I was upset or even sad.
Josie and the Pussycats came out during the hey day of the pop punk era which rode very strong between 1994-2003. But like most other fads, it died sadly.
90s-early 2000s
The era of grunge, nu metal and pop-punk
Coincidentally this was the last era where Rock was a dominant genre with their own radio stations and such
After American Idiot by Green Day, Rock never really reclaimed its musical eminence
The same kids that were the chief consumers of 90s-early 2000s Rock had already transitioned to Rap by that point...mainly on the back of Eminem
Time to watch this again. ❤
i love the movie!! and the songs!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have never seen this movie or know what it's about, but this song goes so unbelievably hard
I'm looking to start singing for a band and as I realize I'm serious about it, I think of how Josie and the Pussycats would totally approve
Hey what a coincidence me too! Wel I'll just say me three. :) I think this was on TBS? I believe. Man its like I haven't heard these songs and watch this movie in years what great happy memories this movie and its soundtrack brings. This is one of my top favorites at the moment.
i like this song!!!!!!!!!!!!
When I was in 4th grade I was obsessed with this song (I still am) and I would sing this song all the time, lol! I would evn hum it during tests and stuffs lol! :D
this song is amazing! its always stuck in my head!
My sister broke my CD for this movie when I was 6 because I would replay over and over on my boom box
It's criminal that more people haven't seen this video essay.
No sh!t. This song lives rent free in my mind.
Real punk music
OMG!!!! This movie is my favorite of all time!!!! I got my whole class singing it!!! My lifes goal is getting Josie's hair
love the drum.of this so much
Josie & The Pussycats is the best band ever!
i LOVED this movie when it first came out
I love this movie so much!
I love love love love this movie.

I'm a punk-rock prom queen
Brown paper magazine
Hotter than you've ever seen
Everywhere and in-between
I'm a ten-ticket thrill ride
Don't you wanna come inside?
A five-star triple threat, hardest of the hard to get
No one's little red Corvette, ain't seen nothing like me yet
It took six whole hours and five long days
For all your lies to come undone
And those three small words were way too late

I'm your late night head rush
Ace high royal flush
Red velvet Orange Crush
You just don't impress me much
A glossy, double-cover spread
Opened up inside your head
A black cherry paradise, half the sugar, twice the spice
I don't wanna treat you nice
Come on baby, roll the dice
It took six whole hours and five long days
For all your lies to come undone
And those three small words were way too late
Can't you see that I'm the one?
It took six whole hours and five long days
