I love how upbeat ska music is and how good it makes you feel, but yet ska music rarely makes it's way into mainstream radio which is just fine with me.
We have also learned from the video for Everything Sucks that they always blow the money they are given to make a music video and end up having to make a cheap video. I love how they don't overboard on their videos. They keep it simple and hilarious!!!
"The most important thing that I have ever learned is if you're not doin' the hurtin' you're the one who's gettin' hurt." Truer words have likely never been spoken.
Ironic how many people watch videos like this and miss the point entirely. The song is about how easy it is to continue the cycle of abuse if you’ve been treated roughly. That line is what’s meant to illustrate how his worldview is wrong because it illustrates how his toxic views lead to him slowly succumbing to hate and becoming the romantic partner that he hated.
@@davidelfving5138 Abuse? What are you talking about? The song never once hints towards abuse, it just talks about how he's hardened his heart due to past relationships and so is being emotionally distant towards her with the expectation that she will also try to break his heart. That's why he, "dares" her to break his heart, he thinks he's learned how to defend himself from such things.
@@Alexrider02 The river that you cry, Is where I'm gonna, Woah set sail! this is the part that starts to hint that his self defense mechanisms are causing him to become abusive, he's so convinced that every relationship is a conflict so he enjoys it when he's the one who's "doing the hurting" I've got one thing to say, As I push you far away. Do you think someone like you, Could make someone like me love you anyway? The most important thing, That I have ever learnt. Is if you're not doing the hurting, You're the one who's getting hurt. and this part is where the facade collapses and it becomes obvious that this isn't about protecting himself anymore, it's about proving his philosophy correct by pushing her away by hurting her to stop her from hurting him. after this part the music cuts away and he starts to sound lonelier and lonelier as he has pushed everyone else away and hurt the ones he loves in an attempt to prevent himself from being hurt.
@@davidelfving5138 You are 100% projecting your own stuff onto this song, and like, that's fine, but also you can't objectively claim that's the intention of the song because I've listened to it a dozen more times and there is absolutely nothing to hint at a deeper meaning other than your own assertion of such.
@@Alexrider02 "The most important thing that I have ever learned is if you're not doin' the hurtin' you're the one who's gettin' hurt." this line which you yourself quoted shows that it's abusive. i'd agree that there isn't a deeper meaning but that's because they've been very explicit about this point. how are the lyrics which i've posted not indicative of an abusive relationship?
It's really a shame that their modern releases have not been heard by the masses... amazing music. I was fortunate enough to see them twice. They were amazing both times.
I saw them in concert for the first time last month. I had a freaking blast. They tie with Alice Cooper and Pearl Jam for the best concert I have ever been to and I've been to over 80 shows.
I remember seeing this chick with him at warped and i just made this face :-; they saw me and i said shes real? He smiled took a swig of his beer and said do you want to touch her? I said yes, and he grabbed her hand and said NOPE
It's rare to see a band have so much fun. Just found these guys, I'm not completely sold on their sound, but I love their energy, style, and enthusiasm.
do they ever come to Indiana!?!? today is the first I am hearing them and they rock!!! cant believe I have never came across these guys...guess better late then never
Things I have learnt from this video: Aaron's sideburns are majestic as ever This music video looks like Reel Big Fish on an off day And needs MORE FUCKING COWBELL!
awesome video and song, i saw then yesterday at warped tour and met all of them and even the girl in this video, and she was wearing the same dress! it was awesome
Sigma Nayo I’m very late to the party but I pity your outlook on life man. The world shouldn’t be viewed through Ben Shapiro videos but that’s just my opinion
i sure will! im amazed at how nice you guys are lol big reel fish has some great fans! I was just on a rolling stones video and it was a all out war in the comment section
I was thinking to share this on a social network to show people how awesome they are! What a fantastic music, so I decided I would because they deserve to be famous in practically every way. ;)
***** I could never get into Reel Big Fish because everyone I know who likes them is kind of a douche. What does attacking someone's music taste prove? If anything, you're just putting people off your tastes rather than his. This guy is just excited about both bands, just be happy that one of them is one that you are excited about as well. Anyway, I'm off to watch some NSP
+nightfighter201 And we can find the non fan with that statement. I have seen them over 15 years and man they are always amazing. I had to log in just to say you are a bitch.
WHERE AND THE HECK HAVE I BEEN??? This group is cool as hell!! I am a HUGE fan of operation ivy for years and years ago and really like the sound, and the other bands that try it always fail with the sound..not compairing this to operation ivy..but these guys have an awesome sound!!!!!!!!!!
lol yes, I am HOOKED!! I listen to them about daily now. And that's awesome they got you into ska!! I always like the trumpets and horns thrown in with a band. I think it just spices it up a bit...I wish they would cover some other songs as well. And its odd because I find that I really like cover songs, but with this group I find that I even like the songs they wrote themselves!! I cant stop listening to them and empire of the sun :)
Justmiss jamey They have a whole album of covers (Fame, Fortune, and Fornication...apparently, their description of the 70's and 80's) songs like Hungry Like the Wolf, Stray Cat Strut, and of course Take On Me...they actually did a cover of Unity by Ivy...also try Streetlight Manifesto. They are a lot more serious than these awesome guys, but We Will Fall Together by them got me into Ska...the band isn't doing tours anymore because their record company royally screwed them over to where they are asking fans to illegally download songs because they don't get any of the money :(
When ever I feel down, this band always, without fail, has the ability to bring me right back on up!
It's pretty hard to be down/sad when listening to ska punk!!
Timotheos Van Niekerk Yeah, what a better song to hear before a damn exam :D
Timotheos Van Niekerk And then drunk again comes on...
They're the best post break-up band.
Agreed.
2024 and this song is still a go to.. RBF, thank you..
I love how upbeat ska music is and how good it makes you feel, but yet ska music rarely makes it's way into mainstream radio which is just fine with me.
Mainstream people don’t deserve ska 😂
Guys this isn't even a music video, just RBF fucking around on any regular day.
...and that's exactly why it fucking rocks \m/
Margalus89 I never said it didnt :)
You should watch Red Fang's music videos, they make hilarious stuff too
I'm gonna search them now thanks :)
We have also learned from the video for Everything Sucks that they always blow the money they are given to make a music video and end up having to make a cheap video. I love how they don't overboard on their videos. They keep it simple and hilarious!!!
For the last 20 years or so, they have always put me in a good mood.
Alittle doubt goes a long way somehow is my life song....
Man, their videos are always done well. They're a band that just keeps coming out with great songs and funny videos.
Best live band - End of.
Candy Coated Fury is a superb album, arguably their most consistent - love it :-)
Personally Why do they rock so hard? is my favorite
I discovered this song accidently while searching for another song.
Do not regret that, love it.
Ska makes everything so much better
Freakin underrated song!!!
Honestly didn't expect him to have that kind of singing voice.. Awesome.
I'm just entertained that they're in Castle Park.
Riverside. 951. 909. Represent.
I’m so old I represent 714. That’s what it was before 909.
I love Reel Big Fish and great job with the cow bell.
Ребят, вы супер! Почему я это не увидел раньше...
Из России с любовью!
his sideburns are god teir
is tier, but i def. agree
you know it
Its aaron barrett. Whatd you expect?
He's rocking the salt-and-pepper look very well indeed
I absolutely love the energy of this band!
Aaron is the truest Guitar Hero. Great song and a great new album!

I've got one thing to say,
As I push you far away.
Do you think someone like you,
Could make someone like me love you anyway?
The most important thing,
That I have ever learnt.
Is if you're not doing the hurting,
You're the one who's getting hurt.

Needs more cow bell
that awesome it sure dose need more cowbell
Hell yeah
exactly
+Jake Hazell I've got a fever.. and the only cure... is more cowbell
Too much cowbell ruins a song, just one monotonous sound
one of the best songs on one of the best albums RBF and pretty good video indeed..
I nobody else concerned with how many hotdogs that man ate in a single music video???
Hey he was hungry, leave him alone
Don't hotdog shame
Leave him alone, my mans just hungry!
the real hotdog is a bosna bro :D
i love RBF!!
I do to
and i love realy big fishes :D
Me too man
A "SKAMAKAZE." I see what you did there reel big fish. ;)
+sha-d paul I don't get it, care to explain?
High Koots the band plays ska punk and they found away to slide the word ska into the name of an alcoholic beverage.
sha-d paul Well that's just an awful pun. Thought there'd be some deep meaning behind it.
+High Koots come up with a better one
Thecockyjerks All puns are awful, I just didn't think it was just gonna be a pun.
I just saw them at the NorVa in Norfolk, Virginia last Wednesday. God did they put on a kick ass show :D
5:16 Mouth piece miss XD
Cream Hc haha thats great
It's really a shame that their modern releases have not been heard by the masses... amazing music. I was fortunate enough to see them twice. They were amazing both times.
Holy shit i haven't seen these guys in forever
favorite band. They seem like such cool guys to hang out with! Saw them live in ATL, going to see them on Warped and every time they come back to ATL!
*I'VE GOT A FEVER, AND THE ONLY PRESCRIPTION, IS MOAR COWBELL!*
MORE...COWBELL!
Is it just me, or is the horns in this song is flat out AWESOME?!✌
still a beter love story than twilight
wessel de brabander the most original comment of all time
a friend of mine show me one song of R.B.F and i really love the energy that they put in every single song they got!!
If you're not doing the hurting, you're the one who's getting hurt!
The only thing this song needs is more views! Love this song! Love these guys!
Haha this was recorded in castle park!
Hahaha Did you see the 91fwy in the back
I saw them in concert for the first time last month. I had a freaking blast. They tie with Alice Cooper and Pearl Jam for the best concert I have ever been to and I've been to over 80 shows.
they're such a cute relationship with the fact they can make these videos together.
Ja hui
You're simply amazing, guys - thank you for making this wonderful music!
"I got a fever and the only cure is MORE COWBELL"
i think that shit every time i listen to this song, hahahaha
I like this band. ❤ Greetings from Czech republic. Btw who is she? 🤔
I remember seeing this chick with him at warped and i just made this face :-; they saw me and i said shes real? He smiled took a swig of his beer and said do you want to touch her? I said yes, and he grabbed her hand and said NOPE
Dude we dying! Haha btw did u get her name? Lol
This sounds so made up
@@Cookiemownster her name is some type of spelling of Krista, Christa, Kyrsta, etc. She's from Philly... that's about all i remember
Love RBF! New album is seven shades of awesome!!
Who is that girl?
your mom
This deserves more views than it has. I love me some reel big fish
It's rare to see a band have so much fun. Just found these guys, I'm not completely sold on their sound, but I love their energy, style, and enthusiasm.
You and I are mortal, but rock and roll will never die.
Needs more cowbell
these guys were awsome at warped!
i see these guys live everytime they come down and i still cant get enough of them'
So this is about being emotionally dead right?
Like every RBF song
I would give this a thumbs up but then it would no longer be 69
Its mgtow, the song
It’s about not getting trapped
Can't wait to seem them live in February!!
i need his ridiculously green shirt. did they shoot this at the castle park in riverside, ca?
God this band needs to become big love this band, don't hear music like this anymore
Was she on Rock of Love? She looks like she'd be on Rock of Love.
Song is growing on me.The Video sells it pretty well.
Great song! But... I think I need more cowbell, baby.
Love the new album! And good to see they are still making videos their own way! And by their own way I mean a $500 budget and some friends.
do they ever come to Indiana!?!? today is the first I am hearing them and they rock!!! cant believe I have never came across these guys...guess better late then never
This should be a top 40 on rotation,
I don't understand the crap music today.
ironically, way back when my dad was in high school, his band name was kamaskaze, and opened for these guys at bogarts in Cincinnati
+the rejects That's not irony.
that's not ironic at all.
Look! It's MC Doesntknowwhatironyis!

Please come to Australia guys! We miss you!!!!! :)
it's such a pain having to see mike getting older
i got the fever for MORE COWBELL!!!!!! AHHAHAHAHA! I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!! Please come to Dubuque Aaron!!! and bring Five Iron Frenzy with you guys!!!!
my girlfriend broke up with me 3 days ago and your music helped me to have my feelings under control :). Thx guys...

Whenever I hear this song, I say to myself "more cowbell!"
A song with as much cowbell as can be asked. Really great tune, fellows.
Run time: 5:54
Video Length: 6:04
CONSPIRACIES
Brilliant tune ,always makes me laugh ,i'm more of a metal fan but i love this song ,video is superb 😁

Needs more cowbell.
Listen to this song like every morning when i wake up. Fuck i miss the 90s.
I WANT SCOTT BACK!

Things I have learnt from this video:
Aaron's sideburns are majestic as ever
This music video looks like Reel Big Fish on an off day
And needs MORE FUCKING COWBELL!

Sigma Nayo I’m very late to the party but I pity your outlook on life man. The world shouldn’t be viewed through Ben Shapiro videos but that’s just my opinion
Definitely. Recognized it immediately and I haven't even been there in 10 years.
ebic band

Was this shot in Orange County?

She's hot.
i second this. she probably got sick after licking that candy cane tho
I would
I was thinking to share this on a social network to show people how awesome they are! What a fantastic music, so I decided I would because they deserve to be famous in practically every way. ;)
They need to do colab with Ninja Sex Party. Atleast cameo in eachothers music videos.
No but there's a difference.
One is Talentless while the other one is Reel Big Fish.

northpolethrowdown geez, can't you take a joke
Sure, I just think your 'joke' sucked ass
northpolethrowdown
And then I'm called a douche.
its cool how they managed to give this that 90s feel
these people are old now
+nightfighter201 And we can find the non fan with that statement. I have seen them over 15 years and man they are always amazing. I had to log in just to say you are a bitch.
+cory N (Corball) and we love you for that 8-) They're just getting better!
i never said they were bad, just that they were old.
nightfighter201 Nice Shäd profile pic.
We all are
I LOVE THIS SONG! It's got a lil Goin' Loco in Acapulco in it!
these guys played at melbourne warped yesterday...the crowd went absolutely NUTS for them D:
Why the long face?
The windmilling drummer gets me everytime!! Ha ha!!
i did not think reel big fish was a real band untill i know you two well
Absolute perfection.
