For some context, Sublime didn't blow up commercially until the release of their self-titled album (this song is on it), which came out only months after Bradley Nowell (lead singer) died of an overdose in 1996. So he never got to experience the real fruits of his labor which is truly heartbreaking. This is why there is no singing in this video and his ghost can be seen at 3:00.
Whats more heartbreaking is that he wanted to keep taking heroin as he wanted the increased creativity he thought he got from it to get this album noticed by the record companies. It worked I guess!
So funny thing, this heina (Spanish slang for girlfriend/someone's woman, a derivative of queen) he's talking about isn't just a girl he wanted. She was a girl he HAD, but sancho (spanish slang for a guy that steals another man's woman) got to her and they had an affair. He's talking about going to find a new woman, but he wants nothing more than beat his old heina and kill her sancho. Hence the "my soul will have to wait". He's saying his soul will be going to hell, but basically he's taking them with him.
Bradley was a genius who never got to flourish as an artist with his talents and gifts. He died so young and didn’t get to see the world. One of a kind voice/vibe
Such a classic song - everything by them is great.This album came out in 1996 when I was freshman in college and my buddies and I would listen to it all the time. The ghost at 3:00 is Bradley Nowell, who died earlier that same year from an overdose. The Dalmatian in the video was Brad's. RIP
The wrong way next the wrong way I want to see what your time stamp is at 3:0£ minutes.

I told her I'm playing golf in the morning and she was like yep yep yep
"what I got" has to be one of my favorites by them, even though it's quite the dirty song I think you'd appreciate the song "caress me down", "wrong way", who can forget "smoke two joints" I LOVE the intro to that song and will occasionally quote it to this day, there's more by them but those are my personal favorites
@@maxbecker5252 I mean when they only got to release 3 studio albums before their tragic death, I owned 40oz to freedom and their self-entitled album but didn't get a chance to get robbin' the hood
Sublime music is actually quite amazing. The catalog is very artistic but most importantly; its relatable and super pleasing to the ears. Even though he aint the greatest singer technically; his song writing originality and style makes up for it and makes it uniquely sublime.
Funny story that they talk about on the yt video about cutting this track, Eric couldn’t hear the drums/ bass as he was playing, and so they put a speaker face down and he sat on it so he could feel the rythym!! 🤙
@@itzcoatlrojas2062 all the behind the scenes stuff from sublime was so amazing, Bradley was a true genius, bud and Eric gods on the. Rythym , how do you classify them?’ Reggae, ska? Punk? Alt rock? Yes, all of those and some more I can barely describe
Not many know this fun fact but Bradley Nowell singer of Sublime was one of the only Greats that died to soon in the 27/28 yr old club whom was a proven certified Genius on paper. With an IQ of 142 even by age 12 enrolled in mentally gifted minors program by his parents: not even Cobain, Hendrix, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Jim Morrison, etc have that claim of proven genius on paper. If you knew how hard it is to play guitar and sing at the same time, then read his college essays, and listen to their entire band's discography, you would understand this guy was a rare genius in the music industry. He essentially died a Martyr like Bob Marley and was the biggest American band in the world to create Reggae fusion which influenced countless artists around the world. Grunge alternative rock died out, but Reggae never did.... That was pretty much souly due to Bradley Nowell. Sublime sold well over 25,000 CDs out of the trunk of their car, some say it was around 60,000 and then went on to selling over 30 Million Albums Platinum world wide when they signed to MCA records and dropped their 3rd album. Sadly, he died from a heroin over dose before the album came out and was never able to experience his mainstream success from over a decade of hard work. I'll be releasing a documentary on Sublime in late 2022.
@@arcanask Yes thank you, I am actually releasing it on youtube for Free because it's truly for the loving and loyal Sublime fans around the world. There was actually a documentary made on Sublime by a big time producer that was aired at the NYC Tribeca Film Festival back in 2018 but nobody ever picked it up on Netflix or anything and it got shelved. Needless to say, none of us Sublime fans got to see the Documentary so we are all pretty pissed off in the community. the Doc may never see the light of day which is tragic. Therefore, as a Musician/Videographer I decided what the heck, I might as well put one together myself and it could be just as good. I've always wanted to create a story on them being they are my favorite band in the world so I have commenced editing the documentary. I want to interview Sublime fans from around the world to be in the documentary and express what and why Sublime means so much to them. If you know of anybody who is a HUGE sublime fan please let me know. And if you are.. cool, lets keep in touch. -Mikey
@@karanowlin9506 Hi Kara! thank you for reaching out, it is still in the works.. i took a hiatus from it due to my family members health but i'm about to release more sublime shows, some fun covers, and I am chipping away at the Doc. the next phase is more interviews.
Sublime is one of those nexus bands. They stand at the nexus of punk rock and ska/reggae. When this album came out, I was in high school and I hadn't yet heard of Toots and the Maytals, Laurel Aikens, Desmond Dekker, etc., but these guys covered tunes like 54-46 (was my number), Rivers of Babylon to name a few. That introduced a lot of us to that sound. Bands like Operation Ivy, Crimpshine, and later Suicide Machines were doing a lot of ska-punk crossover. There's nothing like the gems you find on the old Trojan Records comps, especially disc to of the Rocksteady box-set, but I never would have gotten there without these guys. RIP Bradley Nowell (heroin is stupid- just don't), and it was a little sad to see Louie Dog his Dalmatian. Other great tunes by Sublime are April 26th 1992 and Smoke 2 joints.
Seed, DJs, and Don't Push... all great songs... there has never been a band like Sublime before them and there will never be a band like Sublime after them. RIP Bradley
My favorite sublime songs are “under my voodoo” and “pawn shop”. Get ready is also great. Anything off of 40 oz to freedom is great. Scarlett begonias is a good Grateful Dead cover. Just don’t react to songs like date rape or wrong way. They got enough play on the radio back in the day. Sublime is so much better than their few radio hits.
I remember only having 3 dollars to buy a girlfriend a birthday present so I went and bought a sublime sticker then stole a WRONG WAY sign and stuck it on there and gave it to her . man , she LOVED that thing . Probably still on her wall wherever she is .
OMG, isn't it just amazing how hearing a song just sometimes immediately just takes you back to a definitive point in your life? I graduated high school in 1997(damn, im old!) and this just brings me back to my senior year and freshman in college. I love it
The song itself is about the woman leaving him for her side dude. The man a woman cheats with is called a sancho , so she had already been cheating then she left him for the sancho and now he wants revenge because his soul is in turmoil.
Sanchito is slang referring to a man engaging in an illicit affair (presumably with his girlfriend)...Heina is slang for a girlfriend (beautiful woman) so the song is about the emotional turmoil that he feels when he discovers that she is having an affair which makes him want to resort to violence. I take the lament "I don't practice Santaria I ain't got no crystal ball" is about wishing he had another way (ritualistic magic or being able to see the future, where he feels loved by another) to pacify his feelings of anger and violence...without actually doing harm to Sanchito or Heina. The next verse is about his conflict and understanding that it is not anger so much as feeling unloved...and that until he feels loved his soul will be empty. Which is also why he says they should run and hide...because he does not think he could control his anger if he sees them. In the end he explains that he he does know there is really only one way back from that place of anger, which is time and finding a new love...and all he can do is wait until then. IMO an excellent exploration of the human soul and the emotions.
The lead man (guitarist and vocals) of the band died before they sort of blew up and made this video, that's why he's only featured as a ghostly figure in this video.
I always thought they made this silly video because they were all still grieving and Lou Dog needed some shenanigans too. Makes me teary every time that floating Bradley with Louie looking up at him happens.
tbf, this song was all over pop music stations It was even played at school dances I went to, along with all the other top 40 of the day. The difference is how everyone reacted to it. Sublime is truly something special.
@@SparkimusPrime 100% They were never pop, but they were "popular" with good reason. Some of the best times in my life were experienced to the tunes of Sublime.
@@SparkimusPrime A fine era. Luckily, I still feel better for it, and I'm heading in a better direction than I was then. No regrets. I was where I was meant to be. Thankfully, Sublime's sound will still be in my future as well. That's the beauty of music.
This songs reminds me of the '90s when I was a freshman and my girlfriend was a senior in high school and we would listen to this smoke weed having a good time and the part with the 45 my dad was in the guns and she knew that we were always shooting guns and yeah we had a 45 Magnum
The greatness of Sublime is all about the juxtaposition of the dark lyrics of many of their songs paired with the laidback ska/reggae vibes of their music
This was an older song of theirs that they already had on an album. They refused the song last minute in the studio and this is what he wrote. I think that's the story of this song.
The band is still going following Bradley's passing. You can find them now Sublime with Rome. They had license/Copywrite/ownership issues and were not allowed to keep the original band name. Rome has the same vibe and sound so he's a great fit. Lou Dog's appearance in this video still gives me chills when he looks at Bradley.
Sancho is a Mexican slang word for a backdoor man, or the milkman ... as in your baby has the milkman's eyes. Heina is LA Spanglish for girlfriend (colloquially your "old lady"). This song is about him being angry about being cheated on and his threats of revenge to make the Sancho and his Heina pay for sleeping with each other behind Brandley's back. The Spanglish and Spanish (Mexican dialect) slang words that Bradley uses in his songs are very much of a time and place (the barrio parts of Long Beach, California and Los Angeles county in general in the Late 80s and early 90s)
in its inception, it wasn't Pop, it was ska punk... a song created for himself originally actually....., it did however later influence Pop music though however because many heard it. Thus to MrLboyd Reacts it sounds like Pop music.
For some context, Sublime didn't blow up commercially until the release of their self-titled album (this song is on it), which came out only months after Bradley Nowell (lead singer) died of an overdose in 1996.

Brad's ghost always hits me hard...
He died the week "Date Rape" was on public radio
@@bubblesculptor especially with Lou Dog in the video. I feel bad for Lou every time.
Whats more heartbreaking is that he wanted to keep taking heroin as he wanted the increased creativity he thought he got from it to get this album noticed by the record companies. It worked I guess!
Thats pretty tragic
The video is slightly odd partly because Bradley died before filming any of them. They couldn't include the lead singer much
a bit sad and morbid that the reason he finally watches an original video is because there's not much concert footage of these guys with Bradley.
oh..... ah life
R. I. P.
That's why Lou dog is in the video
So funny thing, this heina (Spanish slang for girlfriend/someone's woman, a derivative of queen) he's talking about isn't just a girl he wanted. She was a girl he HAD, but sancho (spanish slang for a guy that steals another man's woman) got to her and they had an affair. He's talking about going to find a new woman, but he wants nothing more than beat his old heina and kill her sancho. Hence the "my soul will have to wait". He's saying his soul will be going to hell, but basically he's taking them with him.
What I really wanna say, Is I got mine"
No Absolutely not! It is not similar to "Queen" A Heina means a piece of ass.
Thank You. I posted much the same, but had not read down to see that you had already explained it nicely as well.

TIL they played Date Rape on the radio. All I've heard is What I Got, Wrong Way, Santeria, and Doin' Time
This song is really just perfect
I bought this album when it was released and still have it in rotation for when you need to chill. Masterpiece!
I love it. I was introduced to them by my son back in the 90's and as a 60's girl I fell in love...
Even though I highly doubt you've never heard this song I repespect your backlash. Bradley was one of the most talented musicians ever
I don't respect his backlash. This reactor obviously knows little to nothing about singers who can actually sing.
I don't believe it could be anyone's first time hearing this
“New song” and “djs” are up there with my favorite sublime songs.
“Djs” Is a must.
I remember only having 3 dollars to buy a girlfriend a birthday present so I went and bought a sublime sticker then stole a WRONG WAY sign and stuck it on there and gave it to her . man , she LOVED that thing . Probably still on her wall wherever she is .

Ooooo my favorite Sublime song!!
I grew up very close to Long Beach and went to high school from 1990-94. Sublime Snoop and Warren G were our hometown heros without a doubt.
Their cover of "Hong Kong Phooey" is one of the best things you will ever hear.
and THAT'S why dogs are awesome lol
Sublime is my favorite band. They have such a unique style
Cisco kid, they way that bass hits in the whip 😲
Bradley nowell isn’t a vocalist he’s raw and that’s what makes his voice amazing
The nostalgia of this song is so overwhelming. RIP Jessica
For me, Sublime was surfing music. We listened to them all the time when I was learning to surf. Cheers!

Love this group definitely do more videos on them
Yesssssss!!!! You should check out Wrong Way or What I Got also! Great band and songs ❤ RIP Bradley
Yes, more Sublime please. I don't know if you reacted to their song Badfish yet but that one is my favorite and a classic.
Lou Dog :( Still feel bad for him (possibly not even still alive) but still. Lou Dog was a big part of quite of few of their songs.
Sadly Lou dog died in Sep 2001. Outlived Bradley by 5 years... I'm sure Louey felt heart broken like the rest of us...
Sublime crosses so many genres its amazing. Rap rock punk reggae just to name a few
Glad you came back to these guys! You are a real reactor man, why I always come back. Thanks again.
Every time you say enjoy it thoroughly, I think of Maude Lebowski. . . “He’s a good man, and thorough”.
He had an amazing voice.
Created a whole genre of music...k maybe subgenre, but ya know
Sublime songs to check out: Caress me down, what I got, Wrong Way,
Oh damn, my high school years in California. This hit my ears like something else.
Yes!! More Sublime!!
Ahh this music video gets me every time!! The shots of Lou Dog are heartbreaking.
You know, all these years of listening to sublime, this is the first time I've seen the video.
this song always makes me tear up a bit
Sublime is definitely in my top 5. Just listen to the whole 40oz to freedom album.
Sublime was a band playing a mixture of ska, rock, and pop.

Sublime touches me
Sublime: KRS One is probably one of my personal favorites. Definitely work a look and listen.
This songs reminds me of the '90s when I was a freshman and my girlfriend was a senior in high school and we would listen to this smoke weed having a good time and the part with the 45 my dad was in the guns and she knew that we were always shooting guns and yeah we had a 45 Magnum
This song isn’t so much about the lyrics but more about the ✨vibe✨
The greatness of Sublime is all about the juxtaposition of the dark lyrics of many of their songs paired with the laidback ska/reggae vibes of their music
Pawn shop is dope as well.. garden grove is probably my favorite. Caress me down is up there as well. He should definitely check em out..
I've never actually seen the video for this!!! Holy shit Sancho is Deebo!
I feel like I've listened to this my whole life, and I never knew what santeria was until you said it. It all makes sense now😂
Waiting for my Ruca, would be my suggestion. A very simple song, but one that sticks with you.
You actually have to do caress me down lol I think you’ll get a kick out of it
I had this CD.
I laughed so hard at "there is nothing 'ito' about deebo"
They did so much in a short time.
Think you might enjoy Boss DJ by sublime. It's my favorite song by them. RIP Bradley 🙏
A sublime deep dive would be great. KRS-one, same in the end, slow ride, get ready and let’s go get stoned to name a few
How dare you throw off my groove before the hook
Yo, LONG BEACH, CA. represent! music of my high school years.
This was an older song of theirs that they already had on an album. They refused the song last minute in the studio and this is what he wrote. I think that's the story of this song.
WE. ALL. RELATE. TO. SUBLIME. PERIOD.
Good feel song from the 90's
The song literally starts off by saying I don't practice Santeria shaking my damn head

What I Got
Just a couple of my favorites and priority recommendations.
The band is still going following Bradley's passing. You can find them now Sublime with Rome. They had license/Copywrite/ownership issues and were not allowed to keep the original band name. Rome has the same vibe and sound so he's a great fit. Lou Dog's appearance in this video still gives me chills when he looks at Bradley.
I remember having to hide this album from my mom in middle school.
solid tune!
