I was one of the people who requested this song, because there is a lot more to NOFX than their goofy side. They've had a super long career, and have grown and changed right alongside their fans. Very punk rock to be able to show such vulnerability. I respect Mike so much for the vulnerability he has shown over the past decade or two. There's a lot more to this man than you've seen so far.
The stuff Fat Mike did as Cokie the Clown is just a giant therapy session. The song That Time I Killed My Mom will make you want to slit your wrists. He has some deep, dark issues, but it's great that he can express what he's feeling through his music.
This entire album is an absolute gem, but this is easily up there as one of my favorite NOFX tracks of all time. Mike brought the realness, with a sincere vulnerability most artists could only hope to achieve. Not a single word wasted. It's a perfect song.
Great video guys. Fat Mike goes in to more detail about his childhood as Cokie The Clown with the song Punk Rock Saved My Life, maybe check that out. Not so much a kick ass song, but the lyrics... In fact, the whole album "You're Welcome" he did is just a massive, beautiful bum out album.
Mike’s Songwriting Is Always Pretty Moving. I Recommend Checking Out “Fish In A Gun Barrel”, “Herojuana”, “All Outta Angst” And “Reeko”, NOFX Have Written So Many Amazing Songs That I Could List Them All Day!
If you liked this one and you want to ear Mike Burkett pouring his heart out and being as honest as always I strongly suggest you listen to < The big drag, I love you more than I hate me, Doors and fours and Last resort > these are all from the album released in 2021 ''Single Album''. Nofx as been my favorite band since 1994, I've heard everything they've done and I have to say this album is by far the most powerful punkrock album ever released. The ''I love you more than I hate me'' and ''Doors and Fours'' videoclips are totally insane. Left me absolutely speechless. The last one... Last Resort... is about his divorce... wow...he even got a masterpiece out of a F ing sad situation... Genius but concerning..
Yeah, Nofx has some very sad songs that can easily make one cry, it's not always the usual snarkiness and sillyness. For example, every single time I hear the song She's Gone, I at least tear up. Check it out sometime if you're ready for some emotional damage :)
Yeah there are definitely some that can do that. They seem to tuck a lot of them at the end of the albums. Falling in Love, Drop the World, Whoops I OD'd, Doornails, I'm So Sorry Tony are all good examples too. That last one is actually a really tough one to listen to.
Great song and another great reaction guys! Falling in love, is another great song by Nofx. That song is memorial to their frends who died at plane crash. Best love song but sad :(
Great song. Even crazier is Mike talks about how he actually suffocated his mother with a pillow when she was on her deathbed. You should try Pup "Sleep in the Heat" and react to the video. Another sad one in a different way. Great reaction as always, dudes.
Giving how personal this song is I've always prefered the acustic version of fat Mike with his guitar. Hits stronger. Deeper. Maybe it doesn't make sense to make another reaction of the same song (eventhough it really feels like a different song), but just hear it for you. Believe me, once you hear the acoustic version you'll realize this was the way it should always been.
This song is a fucking atom bomb of life and honesty. It's an incredible song, one of my top 5 Nofx tunes. MIkes lyrics stand head and shoulders above any band from his generation. Sure you can go through lyrics sheets of all the other bands but the fact is most of those lyrics hold zero weight because they are sung with poor enunciation. Most of the time just muffled melodies. Mike vocals are always clear, strong and powerful.
A recent song they released titled "the big drag" has similar quality and depth. They're both tough for me to listen to, honestly. (ruclips.net/video/TT_EtBM06-I/видео.html)
Any chance you can review Nobody likes a cynic by Good Riddance? Amazing song and the lyrics are pretty spot on with the current state of affairs in our country.
Fat Mike has some deep hatred towards his father. On his new podcast titled Fat Mike's Fat Mic, he's mentioned to a couple guests how he's decided to legally change his last name. He's doesn't go too much into it. But if you listen how he talks about it, he tries to be his funny self, but you can tell there's some despair in how he says it. As someone who doesn't have a great relationship with their father, I identify with how he feels, try not to make a big deal about it, but it still strikes a nerve.
Guys, if that one hit you search for "Fat Mike - La Pieta (piano version)".. it's a song about the night his mother died. fucking tragedy. for a lot of those sad stories that mike has endured listen to the cokie the clown stuff... for painful honestly, not for good singing.. I can actually just listen to most songs once.. for both reasons. ruclips.net/video/2IdcoYPQFh0/видео.html

Really impressed with the range we've heard so far. And thanks for requesting this! :) -Joel
@@KnightscastStudios for their range I highly recommend the song "doors and fours"

"I bet if you had been there, there wouldnt be this song.." just the most harsh lyrics ever made
Mike did a solo acoustic version. Check that out. 'Whoops,I od'd' is another.
This reaction was so good, I got to relive the emotion of first hearing it watching you guys
Everyone writes NoFX off as clowns but they have so much depth
They’re clowns too. And I love them for it. Haha
Chuck - This song hurt you. Let people that know how to help, help. No shame.
This record came out a few months before my first kid was born. I remember it making me double down on my commitment to my child.
Bit of Aussie love for you Men. Great reaction! Love NOFX & Love the Sublime Shirt!!

They should definitely do "Punk Rock Saved My Life." That song blew my mind. It was so unexpected.
Added it to our request list for you :) -Joel
Yes, that album is very dark.

NoFx can deliver the real from time to time. "All His Suits are Torn" or "The Irrationality of Rationality" are a couple other serious songs.
Added those to our list! -Joel
Honestly I love this song, but the acoustic version is the real version for me

Added that song to our list for you! And thanks 😊-Joel
As someone who lost both of their parents way too young, it's really hard to listen to this song. Absolute banger, though!
You guys absolutely have to listen to one more day by the descendents. It’s about their drummers dad dying. It’s such an emotional song
Also if you want more serious Nofx, you gotta check out generation Z by Nofx
I'll added these to the list for you :) -Joel
hahahaha poor chuck,,,, mind just blown
The Malachi crunch!
Ill add it to the list! -Joel
@@KnightscastStudios cool 🙂
If your want another song like this, try Off With Their Heads - "Don't make me go" or "Clear the Air"
Nice one dudes. Hope to see that a "Wilhelm Scream - apocalypse porn" reaction:)
Keep your eyes peeled, should happen within the next two weeks. :) -Joel
NOFX- She didn't lose her baby
Added it to the list -Joel

The acoustic version is amazing! -Joel
Speechless after a Nofx song lol it’s those fifth notes they do it all the time like a gimmick
I love NOFX and they’re a huge influence on me…but when you’re right, you’re right.

Just listened to an episode of this podcast and I absolutely love it! -Joel
If you want more songs like this check out fat mikes solo album cokie the clown.
Hear the acoustic version dude
If you wanna another NOFX song that will hit you just like that, try I’m So Sorry Tony.
Guys, if that one hit you search for "Fat Mike - La Pieta (piano version)".. it's a song about the night his mother died. fucking tragedy. for a lot of those sad stories that mike has endured listen to the cokie the clown stuff... for painful honestly, not for good singing..

Do stranded by nofx!
As much as I love this song, I had to skip it often when listening to the record as it is pretty upsetting, to me anyway
