I am a girl who bought this album and loved it when it was released. I often felt like it explained my emotional swings as a teenage girl to a T. Still love it now but i definitely learned how to regulate my emotions better. He was totally joking. People are way too easily offended nowadays. Humor is a lost art.
I had the opposite happened to me! When I was younger I was like "I'm not like other girls, I don't let my emotions get the best of me" turns out I was just mega suppressing and now as an adult this song is me 100% I 🤣😭
not just teenage girls. it feminine women in general. it why men do not approach women because never know exactly how they react. Also why men going there own way. It why I rather date tomboyish women because they are more logical. also men have trouble reading body language because we are more logical. it why we want mood ring so can read the body language.
This is possibly the most beautiful song that has ever existed. Making comedy out of female hormonal swings is no easy task. I 100% give my whole hearted approval!
I've wanted a mood ring for ten years because of this song and I finally found a pretty one online... Now I wear it all the time and every time I look at it I sing this in my head. 😅
20 years later and I had completely forgotten about this song. The second it came on I SCREAMED!!! Remembered every last word! So so so good and so nostalgic! 🎉😊
Back when mall punks chillin in Hot Topic and the main benches were the nations problem. I'd gladly throw on my chucks and a shirt thats too tight to make that the main subject of whats wrong again.
Bought my fiancé an Alexandrite ring. The cut stone looks very different in different light. I described it to a co-worker who said, "O yeah. A Mood Ring." Priceless
I remember when this album came out... I asked my mom if I could get a copy of each album cover. She said "hell no" hahaha I ended up with the green one :)
@@TheTephin The light blue one has 4 cars in a junkyard. The other 4 versions show each car wrecked. Pink had the limo, yellow had the convertible, dark blue had the truck, and green had the VW van. :)
As a gal, parts of it are super relatable and true and I've always taken it tongue-in-cheek. The other parts read as "this poor guy has no clue how to read some ppl and handle them when they are upset" which I was took comedic & cathartic way. I can see why some ppl might get upset by the song, especially nowadays cuz people don't have enough media literacy to go "he doesn't mean this all literally" and some young boys will watch this and go "yeah bros, girls be crazy, skibbity riz"
Lyrics: We all know the girls that I am talking about Well, they are time bombs and they are ticking And the only question's when they'll blow up And they'll blow up, we know that without a doubt 'Cause they're those girls, yeah, you know those girls That let their emotions get the best of them Go! And I've contrived some sort of a plan To help my fellow man Let's get emotional girls to all wear mood rings So we'll be tipped off to when they're ticked off 'Cause we'll know just what they're thinking Just what they're thinking She's so pretty but she doesn't always act that way Her moods are swinging on the swingset almost everyday She said to me that she's so happy it's depressing And all I said was, "Someone get that girl a mood ring!" If it's drama you want, then look no further They're like The Real World meets Boy Meets World Meets Days of Our Lives And it just kills me how they get away with murder They'll anger you then bat their eyes Those pretty eyes that watch you sympathize Go! And I've contrived some sort of a plan To help my fellow man Let's get emotional girls to all wear mood rings So we'll be tipped off to when they're ticked off 'Cause we'll know just what they're thinking Just what they're thinking She's so pretty but she doesn't always act that way Her moods are swinging on the swingset almost everyday She said to me that she's so stressed out that it's soothing And all I said was, "Someone get that girl a mood ring!" 'Cause when it's black means "watch your back" because you're probably The last person in the world right now she wants to see And when it's blue it means you should call her up immediately And ask her out because she'll most likely agree And when it's green it simply means that she is really stressed And when it's clear it means she's completely emotionless And that's all right, I must confess We all know the girls that I am talking about She likes you Wednesday, but now it's Friday And she has to wash her hair And it just figures that we'll never figure them out Well, first she's Jekyll and then she's Hyde At least she makes a lovely pair Mood ring, oh mood ring Oh tell me will you bring the key To unlock this mystery? Of girls and their emotions Play it back in slow motion So I may understand The complex infrastructure Known as the female mind
Guys I'm drowning in the memories of my youth,what tf is this thing we are all caught in,We are just along for the ride no matter how much it hurts we all take the dive into the next part of this crazy thing everyone has taken as eternity and even there we are at some other things whims. I just want to be a carefree kid again before this world started killing my friends n family and whispering lies I once believed in my ears that only ever make it hurt more
Kinda silly of them to do if you ask me. The song is obviously toungue-and-cheek which is why you can hear one of the members saying: "That was terrible" in the background as the song fades out. Additionally, if someone feels offended by this song, perhaps it's because it's calling you out? 🤷♂Just some food for thought.
I love that sounds cool at the end where one of them goes, "Ha, that was terrible..." Like, yes, it was, but we all still love it, and you guys still recorded it lol.
It perpetuates stereotypes that women are emotionally unstable and shouldn’t be taken serious if they are upset. It’s pretty degrading to tell a person to wear a mood ring so they can “tell when your going to have a meltdown”
As someone diagnosed with emotional dysregulation; this song has aged like milk. I used to love this song on Dance Praise (DDR christian version) 10 ish years ago, when I was a christian. Now? I'm one of "those girls" who need mood rings. Why am I one of those girls? It was in gods plan for me??? Thanks for making me feel horrible about something I have no control of.
I know it's an old song; people said way worse years ago. On the other side of it; nobody can tell me how weak I feel, how broken I assume my brain is. Unless you live it; you're no expert.
You see, side-effects of sin/the curse of sin changes a lot. Including genetics and problems etc. (Adam and eve). If you know Jesus as your savior, you'll be perfectly 100% well for eternity, no disorders
Im so sorry you've going through it. Please know most people take this song unseriously and more as a reflection of the singer inability to read the room and handle when they've upset ppl. Emotional swings are normal and happen! I experience much more as an adult then I did as a teen
"Sexist Anthem" No, it’s not. It's a silly, comical song that was written back in 2002. As in *not meant to be taken seriously.* I miss the old days where people could recognize these kinds of songs were jokes and not get offended by it...
@@MrAwesomeMatty a silly, comical song based on preconceived notions perpetuated by the Patriarchy AND THE CHURCH. You can enjoy this song, as I do, but don’t keep those blinders on. This is about GROWTH.
This song should be re-written for conversations. Back in my day, they didn't care, but nowadays they always getting triggered by the slightest things on social media 🤣🤣

Haven't heard this song in 10 years but still knew every word, this album is GOLD
Fuckin same

Lol as a teenage guy with a mom with bipolar disorder, i showed this to my dad on a road trip and we laughed after listening to it.
We used to play this all the time at our youth group and all the girls (and their moms) loved it.
I'll have to play this for my youth group 🤙
20 years later and I had completely forgotten about this song. The second it came on I SCREAMED!!! Remembered every last word! So so so good and so nostalgic! 🎉😊
MGK wishes he made music this timeless
Underrated comment
Even tho I'm an emotional girl, this is still one of my favorite sings ever and I totally wanna shred this on the guitar while my guy friends sing it
I FEEL EXPOSED AND PERSONALLY ATTACKED AND I LOVE IT 😂😂
I discovered this song back in 2008, I've been warned 13 years ago before I met her and I still fell for it.
Still relevant.
Always. Won't stop being relevant. lol
forver my dude
relient k, more like relevant k 😂
Indeed!
Still RELIENT
Man, I've forgot how good this drummer is.
this album had riffs for dayyysss
Back when mall punks chillin in Hot Topic and the main benches were the nations problem. I'd gladly throw on my chucks and a shirt thats too tight to make that the main subject of whats wrong again.
Bought my fiancé an Alexandrite ring. The cut stone looks very different in different light. I described it to a co-worker who said, "O yeah. A Mood Ring."
Priceless
Here before the rest read the new article where they apologize for this song...still a bop!
This song still kicks after all these years. Unfortunately there aren't enough mood rings in the world...we gotta start thinking of something else.
There are a lot of songs from this era that still kick. last best time for music IMO.
I remember when this album came out... I asked my mom if I could get a copy of each album cover. She said "hell no" hahaha I ended up with the green one :)
I got the blue!
Omg there were different colors for the cd jacket?! I had the blue one. Didn’t even know there were other options haha
@@TheTephin The light blue one has 4 cars in a junkyard. The other 4 versions show each car wrecked. Pink had the limo, yellow had the convertible, dark blue had the truck, and green had the VW van. :)
I HAD ALL THE COPIES 💜💜💜💜💜
God. Still love this song,and Relient K since it was released.
not gonna say I agree with the message...but I certainly don't disagree
I feel that.
yup

Aged like fine wine. We might need more than one mood ring in this day and age, though.
Lyrics:
We all know the girls that I am talking about
Well, they are time bombs and they are ticking
And the only question's when they'll blow up
And they'll blow up, we know that without a doubt
'Cause they're those girls, yeah, you know those girls
That let their emotions get the best of them
Go!
And I've contrived some sort of a plan
To help my fellow man
Let's get emotional girls to all wear mood rings
So we'll be tipped off to when they're ticked off
'Cause we'll know just what they're thinking
Just what they're thinking
She's so pretty but she doesn't always act that way
Her moods are swinging on the swingset almost everyday
She said to me that she's so happy it's depressing
And all I said was, "Someone get that girl a mood ring!"
If it's drama you want, then look no further
They're like The Real World meets Boy Meets World
Meets Days of Our Lives
And it just kills me how they get away with murder
They'll anger you then bat their eyes
Those pretty eyes that watch you sympathize
Go!
And I've contrived some sort of a plan
To help my fellow man
Let's get emotional girls to all wear mood rings
So we'll be tipped off to when they're ticked off
'Cause we'll know just what they're thinking
Just what they're thinking
She's so pretty but she doesn't always act that way
Her moods are swinging on the swingset almost everyday
She said to me that she's so stressed out that it's soothing
And all I said was, "Someone get that girl a mood ring!"
'Cause when it's black means "watch your back" because you're probably
The last person in the world right now she wants to see
And when it's blue it means you should call her up immediately
And ask her out because she'll most likely agree
And when it's green it simply means that she is really stressed
And when it's clear it means she's completely emotionless
And that's all right, I must confess
We all know the girls that I am talking about
She likes you Wednesday, but now it's Friday
And she has to wash her hair
And it just figures that we'll never figure them out
Well, first she's Jekyll and then she's Hyde
At least she makes a lovely pair
Mood ring, oh mood ring
Oh tell me will you bring the key
To unlock this mystery?
Of girls and their emotions
Play it back in slow motion
So I may understand
The complex infrastructure
Known as the female mind
Best band ever!

Those harmonies..
Love this song! Always have! Heard they recently apologized for it 🤦🏼♀️
it didn't age well but i love it still lol. i think even at the time it wasn't meant to be taken seriously!

@@xxraptorsc0pezxxwokeism is taking over the world.
@@xxraptorsc0pezxx Nailed it. No reason to apologize for this song, it's just having a little fun. Who would even be offended by this?
Still here 2020
why is this so good dude wtf rerelease your albums they will top charts
Where were you in 2003? xD
I loved this song as a teen !
Omg this song is ME!!! loved this one growing up, still love it now. I always took it tongue-in-cheek
You guys are awesome! "A+" for creativity and pure genius.
These comments did not pass the vibe check 🤣🤣 this is Still an awesome song and so sarcastically accurate!!!!!
'Vibe check' wasn't a thing when this band was more popular. More based in reality 😆
this song still slaps
First time hearing this song. It is hilarious!!
I love that sounds cool at the end where one of them goes, "Ha, that was terrible..." Like, yes, it was, but we all still love it, and you guys still recorded it lol.
Its not just relevant, it's Relient, K that is :)
2021 who's still here
Love relient K
Still love this album!!
Omg I just now got the Dr.Jekyl and Mr.Hyde reference lol.
i don't get it?
I love this song so much and it’s almost 2025
Yeeeeeesssssss!!!!! I needed this so much. Thank you!
I still listen to Reliant K on my mp3 lol
The icing on the cake is pink tax
Pink tux to the prom 😀
They apologized for this song??? This is so fun… wow the new generation are sooo weak and can’t take a song?? I love the mood rings!!!!
Gen Z at it's finest. A bunch of whinners. Gen Z hates fun.
Soft men create Hard times hard times create strong men, strong men create good times good times create soft men the cycle never ends
I know a lot of Christian’s who say they can’t support this band because they write about Gods best creations, Girls
I guess it just hit too close to home for certain emotional types.
Meanwhile, the old generation is so weak they can’t take apologies? I love self-reflection!!!!
This is so accurate
I low-key feel attacked because this is me. Lol.
Me: trying to explain to my mom why I want a mood ring 😂
God bless cool dudes
Um... I have so many girls that come to my mind when I hear these lyrics! Lol🤣
I play this in the ghetto and sing out loud with the windows open... I make eye contact with people while singing.
I love this song. Come on!
Love this song
I've just loved this song for years hahahah
From 14 to 2018, @ 24 years old. Here I still am, in love with my Escape. 🙆♀️😍
Cute thanks!
Still relevant
My daughter needs a mood ring 🤣
anybody else here in 2021
Startup company!
Release shit🥺🖤🤘
Me and eris: Let's show them who the real Jekyll and Hyde is 😈
Listening to this song in 2023 and angering feminists, double win.
Huh .. that was terrible… love it!!!!
2022
This song is great 🤣
Some people (now ARTV) has said that this song has aged poorly. Can a nice person please explain
It perpetuates stereotypes that women are emotionally unstable and shouldn’t be taken serious if they are upset.
It’s pretty degrading to tell a person to wear a mood ring so they can “tell when your going to have a meltdown”
I like trains
Rich cooper, Steph is cold, coach Greg Adams will help you stop simping.
I would say this ages poorly, but honestly, it sounds pretty tongue in cheek
You could say it's the very anatomy of tongue in cheek.
It's VEEEERY tongue in cheek
Aged like fine wine!
We need a mood ring for all the woke and non binary probably be always black like their hearts and always angry.
Can't say this nowadays
all true
It must be hard being a girl honestly, they don't even know why they're so upset most of the time.
Lol if she has curly hair then she probably does have to have a wash day rather than go out
As someone diagnosed with emotional dysregulation; this song has aged like milk. I used to love this song on Dance Praise (DDR christian version) 10 ish years ago, when I was a christian. Now?

Degenerate75 brought me here.
As always...
Didn’t realize how feminist this song was until I got older.
😅
Would be a good idea tho lol
Hehaha.
Don't know why they apologized for this 😂 😮
Because it's sexist as fuck
Holy msogyny. lol
Get that bitch talk outta here.
Well these lyrics did not age well
Matthew DiFrancesco I literally just looked this song up because I remembered it randomly and thought he same thing 😂
How soo😂
we stan a sexist anthem
i think its meant to be a kidding type of song
Not sexist if girls literally feel everything stronger girls are fundamentally more emotional then guys. True doesn’t equal sexist
@@femto7579 as a gay man I am fundamentally disgusted by your black and white perspective
"Sexist Anthem"

Good except for the misogyny 🙄
Get that girl a mood ring.
This song should be rewritten for trans and liberals instead of girls.
You hate girls or something?
This song should be re-written for conversations. Back in my day, they didn't care, but nowadays they always getting triggered by the slightest things on social media 🤣🤣
This song is so stupid and misogynistic. I hope everyone that had a hand in making it gets struck by lightning.
