Reminds me of being a kid and wanting to grow up so bad to be able to do the things they were doing now I wish I was that kid again wishing to grow up😢
Exactly my words, man. They were also part of my childhood and IT was my goal to be the same dude as they were and go throught similiar things the did.... 😂❤ Absolutely legend squad!
I agree - I’m 38 with a family and this was one of the most formative films of my teenage life. I don’t wish to be a teen again though - I look back so fondly on my memories as a teenager, but I’m more excited about where I am today. Whenever you find yourself really yearning for the past, remind yourself - at that time you were yearning for the future It’s our nature as humans to want the other thing. Know that and actually enjoy your time on earth
Im just glad i had Buddies growing up and going through the things of talking to a girl you met at school or the mall trying to push the envelope then telling your buddies about it on a Friday night hang out after school. Gosh the weekends and summers use to be golden.
@@jamesdavis3446 i was 11 when I saw this living in NYC was different back then very organic and authentic fun..my 2 brothers were in their very early 20s at the time I remember watching them have so much fun and wishing to be like them..Life is different now
UK here. I was 12 when this movie came out and I used to watch this with my best friend. We thought this is how our lives would go. Life seemed so simple back then. Now, whenever I watch that scene at the end when they toast "to the next step", I get all nostalgic for my younger self.
Watching this movie 20+ years after I first saw it. I am 31 now. This movie is amazing. The music. The comedy. This was the golden age of movies. The nostalgia hits hard.
@@kevinfritz4869 Well I do slightly remember the late 80’s! 😂. I love everything about the 80’s it’s just I remember the 90’s better lol. Both are much better than now! 😭😂
We all feel the same. While we feel mostly depressed and nostalgic, let's just be thankful that we were fortunate enough to live life during the 90s and early 2000s. I feel bad for this Generation. They just won't get it.
I was born 99 but I somehow feel like I belong to this generation. Watching the movies a kinda got a nostalgic feeling about the times long gone. In my humble opinion one of the best times. Anyway, I'll keep dreaming. So long brothers and sisters...
This song reminds me about Finch sit alone in a bench outside the school while all the others are preparing themselves for the big party. Poor Finch :(
I watched my VHS copy of this in 2000 repeatedly.. I was 13 and I lived in a small apartment with my mom.. 20 years later my mom is gone. But this song/movie and memories remain.. glad to see I’m not the only one looking back on it with nostalgia ✌️
"You used to never think you'd ever grow old".. (wow) And here we are in 2020. This song = pure nostalgia + tremendous emotional juice What a trip down memory lane.. Close your eyes and listen to this song and embrace the lyrics. Let your mind flick through the pages of past memories. - I found this song by typing the lyrics into Google since Shazam couldn't even find it.. - To everyone reading this, I wish you all the best in this life time! Enjoy it and make the most of it, so that when you listen to this song when you're 100 years old, you have a big smile on your face reminiscing the past :)
Amazing song, yet I also get depressed listening to it. It reminds me of good times during the 90's. And how all of that is entirely gone now. I feel like Finch, sitting on the bench.
It's the perfect song when reminiscing positively about the past for sure! There's so many emotions hidden in this song, I know exactly what you mean! Let's look brightly to the future though! :))
@@robm9462 Seems like they were a one hit wonder type of band after a little research... This was one of their first songs and they managed to get it featured on American Pie, after that there's hardly anything that is accessible on the internet, which is a shame because wow, that guitar riff
Where is prob to buy a soundtrack album on cd, i think that will be sound much better. Personally i think music from that era not sound good on streaming platforms as compact discs..
Yeah man kinda reminds me of that Andy Bernard quote from The Office when he says “I wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days before you've actually left them.”
Makes me tear up i remember getting American pie 1 and 2 from Blockbuster when they first came out. Gosh simple times. When all we wanted was a Girlfriend to be around back in Middle school 😢❤😂
I remember searching this song up a few years after youtube launched, probably was around 2008, and feeling a bit nostagic that it had been already almost 10 years since the film, but it was ok i was still in my mid 20s close enough to being 19, but wow, fast forward another 16 years, now i feel sad nostalgic, 99 was so long ago, so far removed from these times, im still 18 in my head, i wish i could go back. So much has changed. it was definitely a simpler time. Maybe I'll be back here in another 10-15 years. Who knows.....
Man… I just went to a cousins wedding today and this song for whatever reason came into my head on the drive home. Growing and change is painful! This song really captures that! I cried so hard listening to this. American Pie was such a great movie with a fantastic soundtrack. The nostalgia of this song is so powerful. I wish it was on streaming and would love to know more about Duke Daniels and hear other songs of his. But I thank him and the American Pie soundtrack for giving us this one. Hits you right in the gut Hug your friends and family as tight as you can. Times change and we all go our separate roads and we change “How the hell you ever made it this far, must be a testament to who you are” 🙏🏼♥️
As you walk up those steps And garner your award Try not to forget about me 'Cause I was there when you had no one else to hold You used to look just like a saint Stumblin' toward Yours and God's very own quarantine You used to never think you'd ever grow old Chorus How the hell you ever made it this far Is a testament of who you are Who you'll be Followin' a star I remember once when you had gotten down Lower than the floor But you found how not to run away It was a lesson that I thought you'd never learn Now all the folks you knew would come around Have opened up the door And now they know you're here to stay That light shines bright it feels like it might burn
I wish my teenage years were something at least a little bit close to what was in the movie and all other teenage movies. But no, it wasn't close at all.
This song reminds me of my High School girlfriend. We were together for 2.5 years. She was shy and only had 2-3 friends, while i was a lot more open and had lots of friends, always went to parties, some girls here and there liked me and i felt great about it, although i never cheated. I did things to prove that i was "popular" and never minded her opinion. I won't say that i was a jock and an ass towards her but i wasn't the most mindful boyfriend either, because i felt we were gonna last forever. We broke up 2 months before her prom (I am 1 year older). I am 22 now, studying Law and she is attending some other College, i never talked to her since. I see her once or twice in a few months by fate, she's gotten prettier and i miss her more and more every time we run across each other. The line "I was there when you had no one else to hold" really gets me. For all you High School kids, no matter how "unpopular" your girl/guy is, keep her/him. Once you get out of that place the popularity won't mean shit, cherish the ones who love you, nothing lasts forever but then again nothing is impossible, so tell her you love her and treat her as she deserves
2019 and I wish this song was available to buy on certain music apps. American Pie is one of my favorite movies of all time and this song is just great.
Here we are in 2021 almost a full year since my first lockdown from COVID this movie is almost 22 years old and hear I am still listening to it still. It really takes you back to A LOT simpler of times. While young, I still got to experience the 2000s and late 90s with a decent memory of how it felt
Happy 2022 everyone!!! Life is so short, don't take a moment for granted!!! Cheers to one's we lost, we owe them and owe ourselves to live life to the fullest!!! I love you all!!! 🙏♥️😊
Помню 1999 год , Американский пирог, я 23 летний молодой человек, а сейчас уже 48 , жизнь течет вперёд, но те года останутся навсегда в моей памяти и душе.
When Apple Music fails, I always have RUclips to come in clutch on these gems✨👌🏼✨ Brings back a lot of 90’s/00’s vibes, such a good era I’m glad I can reminisce on🤗
Stifler never said it specifically out loud, but he was nostalgic for the 90's in "American Reunion". The characters were born somewhere in the early 80's, weren't they? So they got to experience what many consider to be the last great decade during their teen years.

One of the most underrated songs I've ever heard!
Absolutely
@aninhadeoliveira I just put the URL of this video into a RUclips to MP3 converter and then dragged and dropped it into my iTunes haha
Use ytmp3.cc on browser open new tab for youtube then search what song you want to download then copy the URL paste it on ytmp3.cc
Sadly this movie has a couple over very good underrated songs in its soundtrack
Definitely
Reminds me of being a kid and wanting to grow up so bad to be able to do the things they were doing now I wish I was that kid again wishing to grow up😢
Seen this movie as a teenager now im 30 and back then i was thinking exactly the same. Now father of 1 . Time flies. Wish i could be a teen again.
Same. I'm 37 now and I miss my childhood. These movies came out when I was 13-14

That guitar riff brings me back to 1999 instantly.
that guitar gets me every time!
I know right, also the way the singer phrases things and the pauses he takes. :)
same man, it feels like that guitar lick is punching me back into my youth, and then the song is over, and I'm not young again haha
It has something that’s for sure. 😌👌🏻

Been 21 years and that guitar still gets..
watching this movie right now and i must say..the nostalgia is so real..the 90s -2000 were some great years great movies great music and great times..
Cool Face
Just before all this social media fourth wave feminism and Bruce Jenner bs started
This movie guts me internally, makes me yearn for my 90’s teenage years so dam bad.

I got 1 year on both of you fellas! I was 20 lol…. But feel the same way. Hope you all are well!
The nostalgia of this song is UNMATCHED!! What a classic! Bring back the 90’s!! 😎
You wrote 80's wrong, this was indeed the 90's but imagine how good they were and multiply that by 10,000 and you have the 80's! 😊

+Sith McFly I think fucking Stifler's mom made up for any of those hardships though.
i think about that too. poor finch is right...
+James Jackson true. go finchy
reminds you? thats exactly when the scene takes place.
Chris Weglein That's probably why it makes him think of it..
This is the best song from the motion picture, American Pie. Sadly, it wasn't included in the soundtrack. And unfortunately underrated...
Yes... I was so disappointed when I bought the CD
Best song from this movie
Good old times
I watched my VHS copy of this in 2000 repeatedly.. I was 13 and I lived in a small apartment with my mom.. 20 years later my mom is gone. But this song/movie and memories remain.. glad to see I’m not the only one looking back on it with nostalgia ✌️
Sorry for your loss 🙏🏽
Movie of a whole generation !
Everyone in 1999 knew the words "Stifler" and "Milf"
"You used to never think you'd ever grow old".. (wow)
And here we are in 2020.
This song = pure nostalgia + tremendous emotional juice
What a trip down memory lane..
Close your eyes and listen to this song and embrace the lyrics. Let your mind flick through the pages of past memories.

I found this song by typing the lyrics into Google since Shazam couldn't even find it..

Remember this everyone:
"One day, you will be nostalgic for now"

@@iwasthewalrus9204 I thought of him too when acapella lessons starts in this film)
Watching this movie made me so sad... Like wtf happened to the world, people, music, movies in 22 years. Holy fuck.
Verdade😢😢😢
Hmm just shut up dude
Still one of the best songs I've ever heard, takes me back to my child hood, as it does for a lot of people
Watched the film today. I think it’s aged well and the soundtrack is phenomenal
Nearly 20 Years later. Had good times 1999.
P wie Pepe Officially 20 years ago, now i'm depressed
That guitar riff gets me man... 2018, watching American Pie is such a trip down memory lane
Kalvan847 watching it in 2019, same thing. I feel so lost in life, compared to the 90's.
I wish this cast never went away
The newer ones suck ass
Really love this song, takes me back to the montage in American Pie. Must, hold back, the tears...
i cry too
Me too brother, me too
Shane Leonard brings back memories too. if I could relive one night it would be prom night sr yr. worse night of my life
Well i couldnt sorry fellas.
@@raymondsolisjr.1262 than why do you want to relive it? Haha
WHY ISNT IT ON SPOTIFY
This song makes me feel so nostalgic. Fuck. This song upsets me but in a good and bad way
Makes me tear up i remember getting American pie 1 and 2 from Blockbuster when they first came out. Gosh simple times. When all we wanted was a Girlfriend to be around back in Middle school 😢❤😂
90s take me backkk :(
This is the perfect graduation song
discardmyfriends couldn't agree more
Remnids me of Oz shaking his head at Jim's suit. ;) LOL
Dont know why but I could cry!
I’m crying right now
This song is so nostalgic, pretty much sums up a day dream of the late 90's.
Can't understand why this song never got a single release or something. I've loved it for over 20 years!
I remember searching this song up a few years after youtube launched, probably was around 2008, and feeling a bit nostagic that it had been already almost 10 years since the film, but it was ok i was still in my mid 20s close enough to being 19, but wow, fast forward another 16 years, now i feel sad nostalgic, 99 was so long ago, so far removed from these times, im still 18 in my head, i wish i could go back.

I want to be young again
Brings back great memories of times so innocent.
yea so hard
I don't know about innocent, it's just from a time when life was alot simpler.
Time flies.
I was a freshman in high school when this movie came out in 1999....it brings back a lot of memories 👍🏼
Same with me. Still watch this movie til this day whenever it’s on.
Same!
suremly takes me back into time memories never to be lived again

As you walk up those steps
And garner your award
Try not to forget about me
'Cause I was there when you had no one else to hold
You used to look just like a saint
Stumblin' toward
Yours and God's very own quarantine
You used to never think you'd ever grow old
Chorus
How the hell you ever made it this far
Is a testament of who you are
Who you'll be
Followin' a star
I remember once when you had gotten down
Lower than the floor
But you found how not to run away
It was a lesson that I thought you'd never learn
Now all the folks you knew would come around
Have opened up the door
And now they know you're here to stay
That light shines bright it feels like it might burn
Thank you!
Man, those were great times.
When your guitar riff has lyrics.
Such an amazing jam! Was 14 in 1999, good times making memories, pure innocence. Looking back, remembering when is the greatest time machine.
I wish my teenage years were something at least a little bit close to what was in the movie and all other teenage movies.
But no, it wasn't close at all.

Omg ! I've been looking for this song since last time I saw this movie back in 1990's omg I was like 14 now I'm 35 thanks for sharing
Said for years that this song is underrated.
Essa música me faz chorar relembrando tempos antigos😢 Esse filme será foda pra sempre♥️
Com certeza!

Nunca terá outro igual
Sem dúvidas ❤️ 99s
verdade
sempre que chega alguma notificação nesse video, eu paro pra escutar essa musica e sofrer um pouco de nostalgia rs
@@athossilva2 pois venha ouvir novamente
I was 18 when this Movie came out in 1999. Reminds me of my Junior Year in College back in the Philippines...
Soundtrack of my youth. So many great memories to this song and film. I was 16, partying by the lake, living life. Another life 🙂
good old days...so many happy memories...I was only 12 back in 1999!
Bhuto2003 great memories indeed, I was 7.
melancholy level +100. definitely one of the greatest prom songs ever recorded. memories, fun, highschool, parties and lifelong friendships..
I’ve just been watching this film tonight, what a movie!
Love the original American Pie Movies
Just watched American pie again. Been years but knew it word for word. Damn 39 now. pure nostalgia
I´ve waited too long... I need this on spotify
LOL. Good luck.
I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you. 🥺
I was born 96 and i love that movie and the song, makes me feel too old... its a great song
2019 and I wish this song was available to buy on certain music apps. American Pie is one of my favorite movies of all time and this song is just great.
You can download it 😊
i have this on my itunes, saved it from 22 yrs ago and still crank it everyday
Here we are in 2021 almost a full year since my first lockdown from COVID this movie is almost 22 years old and hear I am still listening to it still. It really takes you back to A LOT simpler of times. While young, I still got to experience the 2000s and late 90s with a decent memory of how it felt
Nossa da até vontade de chorar ao lembrar de um filme tão foda q foi o AMÉRICA PIE ^-^
Class of 19' here 🎓✌
Can't agree more that most of the american pie soundtrack is nostalgic for HS.
Lembrando da adolescência assistindo american pie! Tempos bons!
If you put into a guitar riff our life in the late 90s, this is it.
Happy 2022 everyone!!! Life is so short, don't take a moment for granted!!! Cheers to one's we lost, we owe them and owe ourselves to live life to the fullest!!! I love you all!!! 🙏♥️😊
Movies that never get old :D
Such a great song yet you can't find it anywhere officially. XD
I love this song so much, means a lot to me.
You and me both Andrew my friend, gone are those days.
Dam this movie makes me feel soo old,I was 19 when I first saw this twice on opening day.
Did you have to pay twice???
@@rustyshackleford5943 Sure Did,$3 back in the day so I didn't mind
You don’t have feelings like this in songs anymore. The chorus is genius.
