    Hits different when you’ve lived in a homeless shelter. I saw and lived sad things. Saw addicts and sadness. Wouldn’t wish it on anyone. Life will beat you to your knees and keep you there in permanently if you let it. It’s all about the absolute ability to show up. I hope you all show up. Love to all.

    This song always makes me cry. I remember being 4 years old, in a uhaul with my mom and brother, driving to our new home that my mom bought after my father died. She had won a malpractice lawsuit against the doctor that had poisoned him. His death had literally bought us a new home in the suburbs. I remember driving down the road and my mom and bro singing this song and they were crying.... I didn't understand the tears. 22 years later, I do. RIP dad, thank you for our new life.

      Sure is. Like you, I didn't much care for these songs when they came out in the 90s. (I was born in '68, raised on the glorious rock n roll bands of the 70s and the wonderfully eclectic music of the 80s.) But I realize now the 90s were an excellent decade for music, the last of the great ones. I would go back in a heartbeat.

    "I hate those people who love to tell you 'money is the root of all that kills.' They have never been poor. They have never had the joy of a welfare Christmas." Are some of my favorite lines in all of rock music. As a kid who grew up in Appalachia and was raised by a single parent, it hits way too close to home.

He’s been in and out of the hospital the past year. What’s hard. I never believed in soulmates until I met him and I’m worried.

    They have never been poor. They have never felt the joy of a Welfare Christmas. Brings back a lot of memories of life after my dad left mom back in 1970. Obviously, the singer is scarred by a really impoverished childhood. That line resonates with me. It creates a "survival drive" that affects every facet of your life in good ways and in bad ways.

      Art Alexakis, the lead singer, had a bad childhood. When he was 12, his brother committed suicide, when he was 13 his GF at the time committed suicide. When art was 14, he himself tried committing suicide. When art was a small child, his father left his mom leaving them poor. Sounds pretty awful to me.

    • @johannlall6727
      @johannlall6727 7 лет назад +4

      It's "really a lie" not alive. The whole point of the song is that he's making empty promises, that's why it's ironic that he's incredulous that his roommate thinks he's a lie

    • @stephenvelez9710
      @stephenvelez9710 7 лет назад +12

      i've listened to this song a hundred bazillion times...as far as i'm concerned, it has to be "really alive." if it's not--tho, i think it is--i still can't change it in my head and heart. "can you believe he actually thinks i am really a lie" doesn't make much sense to me. but that's the beauty of music and all art: sometimes we make our own meaning. to me this song isn't about empty promises, it's about desperation and heartbreak, and the feeling that one will do anything to get the love of your life back. i think when alexakis promise "a new house" he's being figurative: "i'll do anything for you, just please come back."

    • @erinj8621

      @hjd1539 7 лет назад +11

      It's "really alive"...frankly, anyone who interpreted that line any other way, "really a lie....living a lie etc"...is completely missing the whole message of this song. That line is perfection in it's melancholic simplicity and bare, honest self-awareness.

      The 90's were a much happier time for the country though. The 70's to me was vietnam, the corruption of NIxon, and the general incompetence and bad economy of Jimmy Carter. Although not a fan of Bill Clinton the economy was strong for most of the decade and people had jobs.

Then you meet the one, the one who has struggled like you have,the one who has hurt like you have, the one you have no expectations of, and he does all these things for you and more..because he loves you completely.

    I was reading about the lead singer, he's a really big sweetheart. He grew up poor and lived in a black neighborhood being the white kid. He saw what it was like to be poor and the struggles everyone had. So it influenced his personality and views hugely. ♡ His brother died from a heroin overdose, and his girlfriend committed suicide the same year. Poor guy is now a political activist and has campaigned for drug awareness policies. For someone who was both poor and a now sober opiate addict, I'm very thankful for people like him.

    Literally Denise Richards most beautiful role as an actress-- she seemed to pull something genuine and pure forward in her acting for this scenario. And yes, this song is one a lot of young women dreamed they would hear in one form or another from a loved one. An acknowledgement that we stood by you during the bad times, will you take us with you for the good times or "trade up?" So many beautifully, sad, profound, (and maybe a little toxic) memories connected to this song and video.

He tries to hide the things that make me worry, which makes me more worry when I find out. But I know he's doing his best to make us happy and I tend to forget how I to appreciate the little things he does for me and the hardest things he does that I don't know about. He's not perfect but I know he'll do anything for us.

    I miss this band. I remember listening to their music back in 7th grade. Good times.

    I was obsessed with this album for a little while there.

    This song reminds me of growing up with my parents arguing over money and being poor all the time. They worked so hard, both of them, but were so unhappy. I didn't mind being poor as much as I minded listening to them yell at each other. It isn't that money doesn't matter, I just wish they knew that I was fine being poor, I just wished they could have happier. They ended up getting divorced when I moved out. I sometimes wonder if they still would be together if they weren't poor. Money was what they argued over the most.

      It's one thing to be poor when you're young - at least you know it's not your fault. Being poor when you're old - when you had at all before and bulloxed it up - that really sucks too. Just in a different way.

    How can a band with so many hits have only 32 thousand subscribers on the channel? I'm 36 years old and I've been listening since I was 15! EVERCLEAR R0X !!!
