I keep my focus on the simple things
Try to find some peace along the way
Wish I knew how long I’m supposed to wait
Holding on
But just barely
Got the feeling I’ve been talking to a dead, dead line
Always a reason
Let it change
Is there anyone there?
Listening while you cry, cry, cry?
Always a reason for the pain
I’m doing the things I’ve been told everyday
Then why does it feel like I’m moving in place?
Never had anything to prove
But never was anyone like you
All you fought through
All you had to face
Made you stronger, unafraid
Got the feeling I’ve been talking to a dead, dead line
Always a reason
Let it change
Is there anyone there?
Listening while you cry, cry, cry?
Always a reason for the pain
I’m doing the things I’ve been told everyday
Then why does it feel like I’m moving in place?
I gotta believe that you’re there
When I sing
Cause if you’re not real then I’m losing my head
Got the feeling I’ve been talking to a dead, dead line
Always a reason
Let it change

Still criminally underrated.
lmao, dude, jimmy eat world has been criminally under rated for nearly 20 years. I literally own every album and have listened since the start and I twisted in and crawled at night wondering how they didn't make it super big.
and I absolutely cringe everytime I hear bleed america and the middle, cause god damn, their stuff is SOOOOO good and that's not even close to their best.
Jimmy Eat World is the best! But you need to listen to " Live Not Survive" by SLT! You are missing out !!!
Stating underrated is the most boring overrated comment. Please be better 🤪
@@maximumvalues No. I won't change myself to fit into your world view, fuck you. I will do worse. Spiting you will be my lives mission.
I like how when he says "Every day, every day, every day" the notes change with each one representing the time going by, but when he says "moving in place", each time the notes are the same like there's nothing changing - likes he's stuck in place. Gotta love multi-layered writing.
I feel like this song is about people with 9-to-5 jobs
Jim Adkins, man
It's called word painting, and I think it is super cool.
@Morgan Smith "holy fuck everyone should like the same stuff that i do"
@Morgan Smith but u are telling him to shut up, basically implying that he can't say that because it goes against what you think, so yeah, choose words more carefully from now on cause you keep being wrong, even while trying to explain yourself
In Oct of 2021 my sister passed away after a battle with cancer. I remember sitting with her while she was still conscious enough to listen to music and speak. This was one of her last songs that she requested to listen to. Arizona band of all things. Love you guys and thank you for making such great music
Nothing but love sent your way
Of course I’m halted check out what does it mean to be a queen 👸
My heart goes out to you! Cherish the best memories you guys had. (It's) Tina (right?) still exists, she's always here in the present moment she's by your side now supporting you on another level, motivating you to get through some legal paperwork you're dealing with. times may seem hard now but as bad as it may "seem" she wants you to know it's not a bad thing so don't be bitter. It's for the best did she call you her "driver?" Btw? Lol sry falling asleep rn. Jimmy eat world is a great band. Imo
"Mi Cochero" 😆 is what I heard I had to look it up I didn't know what it meant.
Mi allo Cochero
What does that mean?
the amount of 80's vibes in this gives me chills. amazing
I'm glad I wasn't the only one who felt this lol
True. Feels like it's from Bill and Ted or something lol.

I watch this video, everyday, everyday, everyday... And this song is always in my head, in my head, in my head
How does it feel.... Everyday, everyday, everyday....
Genious
This song is a prayer.
what did Jim Eat world do to my mind.
'Cause if you're not real, I'm losing my head, in my head, in my head
That is a strong one xD
This song actually sorta fills a void and I wish there were more like it

After listening to Jim talk about his creative process and him leaving alcohol and struggling with the idea that he feels unsure about himself when creating if he is not like in a bad place emotionally, I think I understand the lyrics better. Like he is expressing all that and how he tries staying 'mentally healthy' everyday and not drinking alcohol, and trying to kind of push himself in a positive state and change his mindset and not worry too much about the reception of his music if he is just enjoying himself. Don't worry, Jim, you are still a legend already no matter what.
Still writing killer songs after all these years. So impressive.
Agreed. He's always been to grade song writer
9щ9
I think this is the best music they've made in a long time - sign of a truly great band
I seriously can't stop watching, there is something so magnetic about it. The hypnotizing rhythm of the song itself, this minimalistic scene with extremely pleasing and odd character design, dead and at the same time kind of lost gaze of the cultist guys, the extremely lyrical Mad Max overlord, his makeup, the slight VHS effect on the video... I love this.
The aesthetic is more Dune than Mad Max, but yeah, the cult of personality leader seen in both settings.
Had never seen either so I couldn’t tell you the relevance of the theme but the song title “555” are angel numbers Change is a part of life, and when we see the number 555, something is telling you that a transition is in play in your life and all around you. Every change brings stress; it's part of being human.
Beautiful
@@joshuamuir6512 that's interesting. Im not sure what the lyrics are meant to convey but my first impression hearing them, it sounds almost like he's talking to god. But take that with a grain of salt. I have no idea what the song is about.
@@koalabear4884 well the artistic value he adds is simply amazing. Notice the only time he shows any form of emotion is when all of his followers were amassed in the end. I have to agree with you because the sense or experience I felt with the piece in the elements experiences and in the timeline showed. Almost as if it’s just a man pursuing his vision, no guarantees but learning your lessons on top of blessings. We often get out through crap in our life to prepare us for the next hurdle of crap lol. staying vigilant in his beliefs and continuing to build - whatever that may be obviously amassing an cult as they were slowly multiplying in numbers. Now the track title “555” or angel numbers translating to basically the word “change”
Can’t help but make me feel as though he were plotting a takeover of some kind. A massive change was about to occur because again the only time he showed any real lovely emotion is when his task seemed to be complete and he reveled in the moment for all but one second.
But again his intent isn’t depicted in the video it’s our perspective that paints the story. Great video great use of the angelic language that very few are even aware of lol.
I have been listening Jimmy Eat World for approximately 20 years now - seems like a lot - and I can clearly say that this is one of my favourite songs from all. Jim does a perfect job in this and I really appreciate the band’s efforts to still be active and producing quality music - keep up the good work guys. 👍🏻
Same here, started listening in 2002 and this in a top 3 from them. The middle, Sweetness, and 555 rank top 3.
@@SarenShepard370 hmm The Middle is how many of us got started, it’s a great jam, but feel like they have way better deep cuts, that’s just gateway drug
Same here, my friend. ❤
this one slaps hard for real
Sammmmme
I don't know how many times I've listened to this song now. I can't get it out of my head.
@Ankit Kaul.......You're not helping!!
Still listening!
And now it's been another year...

This amazing song came out exactly a year ago. Feels like yesterday.
I keep hearing everyone say they grew up on this song. lol
@@johnnyhempseed84 Lmaooo
I remember when it came out I'd listen to it all the time. I'd have it on loop on my way to and from college. Simpler times.
Damnnnn it really does
More like 2009
This song literally should have blown up more than it did. I get that the Gothic sci-fi space man thing may not be for everyone (it's definitely for me) but the song is so well written and engineered, such good feels!
WE NEED MORE GOTHIC SCI-FI SPACE MAN! 🖤🖤🖤🖤
8 million views is more than 99.9% of music will ever see across all platforms
@RainbugK Praise Gothic sci-fi space man! 🙌
Always baffles me when people lament songs not being (even more) popular. Why would you want your hidden gem associated with... _those?_
@HadzabadZa great art deserves to be experienced by as many a conscious mind as possible.
(Quoted: ) .... "a really cool explanation of the song title '555'. It's about how movies and tv shows and games use the '555' area code for fake phone numbers because that area code doesn't exist. So if you call the number, it doesn't take you anywhere. It's reflective of having prayers (or phonecalls) that go unanswered by the universe. A dark song, he says."
For me, a matter of interpretation where I've typically still seen light where others claim they can't see it or are enveloped by darkness. Seeing that light is not always a subscription, though, easily prescribed to in others. It seems upon that precipice in which it proves to be a careful exploration taking place which one may want to avoid blurring of your boundaries by others if what one is highlighting as an opportunity for a brighter perspective and exercise on the approach beginning with a reappraisal mechanism exercise that, dangerously to themselves and others, is mistaken by others who have confirmation bias potentially working to silence and/or smear you for having said ~counters to their life prognosis/subscriptions and prescriptions.
555 is also used in Thailand. It is their version of hahaha or lol.
555 is the number of humans in The Bible.
@@michaelwatson1390 ,
Yep. I didn't editorialize the quote I copied & pasted. It's the telephone prefix for phone numbers (and not the area code) used in script writing.
Hm. Reading that '444' is often a reference used to represent angels or guardian angels?....
Stop smoking that crack bro!😏
Rarely you come across a RUclips suggestion and turns out to be one of the best songs you found all year.
luckian jimmy eat world have an amazing lists of classics under their belt. Awesome band
luckian
Now go check out their older stuff. Start with Drugs or Me and 23.
luckian if this is the best song you’ve heard all year this must be the first song you’ve ever heard cause this songs sucks more than Pam Anderson. You’re completely in the dark and lost when it comes to jimmy eat world or even if you think this is a good song I’m sorry and not trying to be mean. But do yourself a favor and listen to their CD “Bleed American” that was jimmy eat worlds peak imo.
@@drivethrucarlos who hurt you?
Over ever for that matter.
New energy is coming ♥️♥️♥️ You can't hide in the dark anymore ! So many of us is waking up . There is no escape. We are getting stronger 💪 555 💪 is almost here 💪
Jimmy eat world have been my favourite band since I was 14. I'm 37 this year and my heart is still spell bound by the magical frequency that they still release to this day. Was lucky enough to see them with get up kids last year. 1st gig since lock down. Such amazing energy around all evening.
Also started at 14, also turning 37 this year, also named Mark lol
@@markrabideau4067 mad synchronicity. where are you from brother? i'm in the uk. good to meet you.
@markhimself4840 you as well. I'm in Denver, Colorado. Hit me up if you ever come to go skiing lol.
When he takes off the glasses and you get the full scope of his emotions it is incredible how much pain you can see and feel coming out of him.
yes that part is very striking, it also shows how modified he is by showing his eyes as an unnatural color, like he has modified his soul to an extent, its really very good the more I watch it
I'd love for them to expand on this theme.
@Jen farmer actually I find sensitivity in men attractive
farmer try justin from blue October 😊
@Jen farmer you can feel the emotion and vulnerability on blue Octobers music. Hurt anger pain ...nothing to do with famous. Simply able to connect with a lot if people. And my boyfriend, unfortunately passed away, was very masculine yet very gentle and sensitive. Perfect combination.
This needs to be a sci-fi rock opera. I need back story. I cannot stop watching.
I 100% agree!
it was said this was loosely based on the Rick Springfield video Bop til you drop. I went and watched it...wow really painful
Just watch star wars
Look at this starwars fan hahaha lame
It fits perfectly into a Dr Who episode!
Had to leave my ex of 7 years for good. I will never forget driving from Paragould, AR to my hometown just blasting Jimmy Eat World. The only band that got me through it all.
Used to listen to Jimmy Eat World as a teen. Now I’m a father, and my 7 year old loves this song! Too cool
I'm a dad too now, and my son has been listening a lot of the old songs I used to listen to. I haven't introduced him to Jimmy Eat World yet. I guess he's ready.
[had to fix my comment cuz I had accidentally typed "annoying" instead of "listening"... I guess it was the autocorrect
P.S. this isn't related to the comment or anything but I just tried typing this band's name as an acronym and that didn't go well 😂
I also have a 7 year old and he walked on me once playing this song on You Tube. He asked „ what song is that?“ i said „my new favorite.“ then he answered „cool song!“ and sat with me til the video was over.
This is currently my almost 4 year olds favorite song. 😊
Yeah yeah shut up
06yammieR1 that’s amazing!!! Been listening to them for a long time and i’m a father of a 2 years boy
One of the best slow burners I've ever heard, and can we appreciate how simultaneously eerie and well done this video is? Just brilliant.
Indeed.
One of the best songs I've heard in a long time.
The only Jimmy Eat World song I've heard that isn't unremarkable, throw-away background pop.
That this song and this music video exist together feels like one of those beautiful flukes in the universe.
completely agree. they are meant for eachother
I work security at a music venue, and a few months ago during a show a fight broke out and I was assaulted, and I ended up falling head-first down a flight of stairs, where I suffered a concussion, multiple skull fractures and missing teeth, hearing loss and a torn rotator cuff. As someone who suffers daily from depression and anxiety, this incident is not at all what I needed. I had a lot of downtime during my recuperation. This video was released around the time of the incident, and it caught my intrigue through suggested videos one day. I'm glad I watched it. This song describes exactly how I felt in the midst of rehabilitation and dr appointments and all the physical and mental pain, and this song helped me not only cope with my temporarily poor mental condition, but it also helped bring me back to 100%. The visuals in this video are astounding and surreal, the sound and vibe of the song along with the lyrics are powerfully uplifting and the message is strong. Thanks so much for helping me get back to where I need to be. I won't forget it. Well done.
Ouch. You're my hero. Welcome back to health.
Thanks for sharing.
I hope you had completely recovered.
It's incredible how many times we experience conincidences as with songs!
I hope you are ok or better now bud!
Good man
Oh wow! I hope you're feeling much better now!
I really like watching this everyday, everyday, everyday...
Why does it feel that I'm losing I'm my head, in my head in my head...?
@@shannonc.4927 I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. But I love this song :)
I'm hearing this for the first time. Wow. ❤❤❤❤❤

Wtf?. The music, the video, the lyrics... A goddamn addictive masterpiece.
Luis P. Agreed. 🙌🏼👏🏼
I swear I was never a fan... I think I am now. Wow. So weird.
Deltron 67 Same...I can kinda agree with you there. Never been much of a fan but I really love this song and it's absolutely tattooed on my mind...I've listened to it countless times these past 3 weeks. It's honestly really surprised me that Jimmy Eat World could ever possibly break me away from my Slipknot😄😁🤟🤟Slipknot said "IF JIMMY"S 555 then I'm 666!!...what's it like to be a heretic?!!!"
@@terrancepemberton4648 jajaj. Well i am not really into slipknot. I am more into alternative, like the killers. Never been a huge fan of jimmy, but this song and 2 o 3 more, i really like them. Specially thisbone
I like some alternative too. I can get into almost anything that could fit into the rock & metal sound spectrum. I hate that crazy ass metal where they have trash vocalists who do nothing but do their best imitation of Satan or other some kinda creature! Just non stop demonic sounding screaming vocals that are not audible and you can't understand None of the lyrics... Trash music and I hate it. I love metal bands like slipknot cause their singer delivers a perfect mix of screaming/growling vocals & melodic vocals. I love discovering new bands tho. Any alternative bands you might recommend?
I am so completely and utterly in love with this song.
Senkimone Same :)
Same!
My love for Jimmy goes way back, but this song is their best by far. I never get tired of it.
Love it, for those of you that don’t know “555” are a set of angel numbers which means change. Sometimes when the universe or god is trying to get your attention you’ll notice sets of repeating numbers all over the place. It’s crazy because it’s almost unreal but when you have faith and trust delving into the great unknown it’s odd to say it but everything just slips into place naturally. Truth is no matter how much we fight or resist, change is inevitable. What’s will be is going to be no matter the amount of straining or stressing you do over it. But what’s meant to be will be and things have a way of working themselves out for the highest good of all. So just enjoy the moment when your life’s journey is transitioning. Great song.
Thank you for this- I knew it had to do with angels/signs we see when we need it most- and I was going to look it up and then I saw this comment. It’s a beautiful reminder to me that someone is watching.
you are a MANIAC!
its not. jimmy eat worlds lead singer said its about trying to call the ghostbusters 555 number when he was a kid and the disappointment of finding out its not a real number.
@@tcorbhuman lmao but it is, angel numbers are real. Only those who have had the experience know what I’m talking about. On that note Music is open to interpretation that’s the beauty of it. It’s felt not heard but I didn’t know that about the track title. It’s cool to know that was his inspiration for the art piece.

Deeply altruistic
My favorite part is when he takes off his glasses and looks at his minions like a proud papa, great video and song
“A proud papa” lol
But how does he take them off and put them back on? surgically implanted magnets? want.
@@thesmartestdumbperson6489 that's an older style of glasses thats not supported by earpieces but by pinching into the nose. Not being a native english speaker I had to look that term too but they are obviously called "Pince-nez"
My fav part is how they took a huge shit on their legacy with some trendy overproduced pop "NANANA" anthem. god this make me wanna fucking puke.
@@jefferson6994 bands have the right to fucking mix a little bit, this song reminds me of early 80's U2 ones, just take the L and stfu.
The loneliness of being at the top of everything, and emptiness of having no more goals
This is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave Acoustic” by SLT 🤘🎶🤘
So criminally underrated...
For those wondering:
“I’ve always liked the Rick Springfield video for ‘Bop ‘Till You Drop’. A reptilian overlord managing his minions gets overthrown by his workforce. He’s kind of trying to keep them in line, but one guy breaks into song and mass rebellion ensues. From the overlord’s perspective, that day was a pretty bad day. I always thought that was funny. So ‘555’ sees me cast as a galactic evil master, overseeing an army of cloned species doing my bidding - this is the only life they know, joining me in song in this post-apocalyptic dystopia.” - Jim Adkins
The video is a science-fiction post-apocalyptic nightmare filled with clones and an evil galactic master played by Jimmy Eat World frontman Jim Adkins... It’s about resisting accepted norms but also the fallout that can cause. (According to AltPress)
Didn’t do anything for me... I’ve always loved jew, but this is like an ugly spot for such a beautiful band
That's fucking perfect.
Jai I am loving the song, but the video was a big head-scratcher for me at first!
@@ZoeRice22 Its pulled Jimmy Eat World away from the middle of the road soft rock which they had ended trapping themselves in following Bleed American. Classic 80s sci-fi references.
Thomas Moore yes the sound of the entire new album is just flawless if you ask me :)
This video fits the music flawlessly. It’s hard to describe but I feel like this is a reality somewhere, like an intense lucid dream. The emotion flowing through the brief glimpses you catch of the eyes, the tension in all of the controlled movements. Glissando of the baseline during the chorus is beautiful and sad. Hits hard. Misunderstood villain who has good intentions. Triumph in heartache.
Maybe not just a misunderstood villain - maybe somebody who doesn't realise that he's the architect of his own loneliness, consoling himself with clone armies and a badass evil chair. At the end of the video he feels like he's broken through something, but who or what has he broken through to? He's not allowed anybody in his world other than himself.
So Scorpius from Farscape ^^
I'm totally down with an entire album with this theme and style. Weird how this song takes me back to my childhood in the 80s. Love it.
物凄い映像。素晴らしい曲。地球なのか他の星なのか。現実なのか夢なのか。とても美しい。
This is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave Acoustic” by SLT 🤘🎶🤘
The slight quiver in his expression after the first verse is just too good
Jimmy Eat World is now officially canon in the Dune universe.
He discovered the spice for sure. 💚
Way underrated. Excellent comment
We have just folded space from Terra III, many rock-bands on Terra III.
I was thinking Hell Raiser.
Spicy
Not many songs really hit my soul, but this one made me cry. It took a few listens, but felt like it empathized with me on a deep worldly struggle. Thank you Jimmy ❤️ 🍻
Please listen to this using headphones and not on your phone. Give this song the attention it deserves.
Indeed! The best music should always be experienced in hi fidelity.
Apple can eff off.
Totally True!
Not everyone has headphones.
I've got cats, they play with my headphone cord, so I don't use them anymore, otherwise they'd chew them up.
I still can't believe this is Jimmy Eat World. Cool song but very very different.
well this is what happens when a band gets infected by the borg.

Different is good. There's a reason there's about 2 90's bands that are still popular.
This video is hypnotic, I can't stop watching...
Same...
Yes it is. Now, go to your bank and close your account. Leave all the money in a bag at the Ferris Wheel gate on the Santa Monica Pier on Friday at midnight.
Just discovered it tonight, already hit replay like a dozen times!
@theLuanandonly Thanks, I try. No probs if you'd like to drop off your cash, too. You know where I'll be.
Im in the same.. cant stop restarting the video..
As an older fella.... This song could be placed down in 1986 and be at home..... Such a great song. I'm amazed it's not a smash...... It's a shame.
I had a weird day.. My online class was canceled, I ordered food at a bad restaurant, I struggled with my dad's stupid comments about the past.. when I failed 2 years at school (lockdown is keeping people thinking about past, I have found that in many people)
Now, regarding this song.. I had it as a recomendation. I didn't pay attention to its lyrics until now that I've been dealing with depression and anxiety, I know must of us do in this time..
Does anyone else feel like you heard this song a long time ago even tho it's new?
Yes 100%
It feels like an old memory that is just out of reach but not completely forgotten
Omg, lately I've been listening to a lot of new music and I only new them for The Middle, listening to this I thought "OMG, what have I been missing" Didn't even notice it's super recent
It's the synth.
Yeah I’m obsessed with this song it always brings me to a good uplifting mood and it’s nice
@@DarkMage2k Painfully true.
Jimmy Eat World’s music has always captured the pain of living so beautifully. This is just as impactful as “Sweetness” was back in the day. I love them!!!
My god, after having heard this for first time I cannot stop listening to it. It's just so perfect, its totally 80s. Has that Eurythmics feel to it. I'm listenining to this on repeat.
If this isn’t in the end credits of the new Dune movie, ima start swinging.
I thought the same thing the first time I saw this..........This song is my daily theme. Moya Moya sucks donkey.
Facts
I second this.
It kind of gave me a Farscape vibe.
Lmao
I’m very proud of my favorite band right now.
Absolute masterpiece. The video is strange but it is so appropriate for the depth of the problems the singer is dealing with.
I literally play this song several times a day. It's my newest addiction.
Have it on repeat...can't believe this is my first time hearing this!!
Same! We just got back from a jimmy eat world concert. They played this song, and it was so beautiful. I had never heard it before. It’s astonishingly powerful. Had to look it up as soon as we got home. Also been playing it on repeat.
Why does it sound so nostalgic when it's new?
Jake Serra that’s when you know it’s good!
I was just talking to someone about how I really thought this was from years ago. hard to believe it came out a month ago. I love it though!
This is intentional, they are using the famous "4 chords" in the chorus section. You have heard this chord progression time and time again in other songs and that is where that nostalgic feeling is coming from. Search "4 chords" from The Axis of Awesome
To me it sounds like their old stuff but just with a modern touch. It's good.
I guess... Due to the use of synthesizer... The production also... making it somewhat in the style of eighties radio rock like 'journey'
This is giving me some serious late 80's early 90's late-night mix radio vibes. I dig. Takes me back.

I am catching up on the Jimmy Eat World I missed out on for the last several years. Another Banger!

Hypnotic!
Same... at first I was like wtf ... did not like the song .. but it came on while I was at work and I liked the song without the video
@@demonwaterdemonwater4993 this is my impression about life in general Tbh :')
They were going for a serious 80's video vibe here with mega Dune undertones.
80s influenced without having to slam our face with references and effects
valid
Sounds like a Talk Talk song, I can see Mark Hollis ticks in his acting too
Why? Expressing emotions can be hard after a void, asshole.
Now you can hear it.
Try illusionary
Sometimes I really dig cheesy, reference heavy stuff. But it is refreshing to see someone make an 80s inspired song without immediately making the visuals about the 80s. It makes it seem less gimmicky and more about a sound production choice.
@@jacobmartinelli7496 are you alright? Who are you even aiming at this and what are you trying to say?
Alright, I finally had to comment on this amazing video and song. It seems to me like a person who has kept the faith and is approaching middle age, with none of the tangible rewards that were expected. The growing sense that it was all for nothing, that there wasn't always a reason for the pain. The setting of a sci fi movie with cheesy special effects is like all the tricks that your mind uses to convince you to keep going down a path that isn't like anyone said it would be. To convince you there is a chorus of agreeing voices with you, but its just one voice cleverly manipulated. It is all smoke and mirrors to both entertain us and keep us playing our parts, without telling us it is all empty.
I feel like they paid close attention to his emoting, and especially the times the smile drops enough to reveal doubt, worry, and sadness in the eyes.
Maybe you just never learned the source of the pain?
This gives me nostalgic feelings from the early 90s for some reason. Idk why
This is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave Acoustic” by SLT 🤘🎶🤘🎶🤘
When you've conquered the Universe but haven't conquered her heart.
ohh this cuts like a knife
poor Thanos
This is the best explanation ever
@Matt Forbes bullcrap
This comment made my day.
Never expected this from J.E.W... BUT... I can't help but LOVE it...
I watched it once and was 100% "WTF????"... but for some reason I have watched it 5 more times and want to keep hitting replay...
10/10... love it!
bbqwithchris when I first watched it I was watching random things. It popped up. Grabbed my attention. My initial reaction was. Wtf?? But. I’ve been obsessed with it ever since! 😆
“Evil overlord has a moment” 🖤
I searched 555 and this song popped up. THANK YOU UNIVERSE , the message is clear I will let go of my past self and move forward. Try to focus on the simple things and be grateful for them♡
This is what happens when you break up with a super villain.
Hahaha #feeeeels
Also, your comment is *W-A-Y* underrated!
😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆👏👏
@@aaroncsoka7294 Haha, thanks.
dammit I busted out laughing way too loud at this and I didn't know how to explain because my family already doesnt like any of my music choices or genres so I just had to sit here laughing, looking like an idiot .
I've been listening to this song nonstop for over a month now.
Amanda Galindo same.
Everyday everyday everyday
Same here, i listen it on a random playlist and cant stop
Same. Getting a divorce. Dad just got cancer diagnosis. I suck at humans lol. Raising a child is so difficult. This song is perfect.
@@eclopez946 Nice.
This song speaks to me. It soothes my depression for a few minutes. I play it over and over. Thank you, guys.
absolutely one of the best songs and videos in the last decade
His face expressions are gold!
miniharez the mouth twitches and stuff? My fave. 🤗🥰😘
I’ve watched this video now 1,323 times. RUclips emailed me this morning “you good bro?”
Word?
Brennan Gatlin I’ve kept this on repeat, blasted through several speakers. Love this.
Music and video are hypnotic
havent got to see the yet
i watched beveryll hills 90210 today for 750 minutes straight
I just also realized that the 'angel number' (I don't know much about them but..) 555 means change. And that you're going through a change in your life and that it is time to let go of the ‘old’ that is no longer positively serving you
"There's always reason to let it change"
You are my beautiful discovery of this day❤
Jimmy: I wanna look as tired and evil as I feel
FX Make-up artist: Say no more, fam!
And nails it.
it's good to see jimmy eat world survived the apocalypse.
Caused*
Survived 2020
And apparently they "did not eat world" as we are thankfully still here to enjoy this gem lol :)
Well, now we are living in a lockdown period.. Feels like in a apocalypse
You from seven months ago had no idea of the apocalypse that was about to happen in 2020
i never thought when i first heard this band they would become so important to me later in life, Jimmy Eat World is fucking amazing.
this track IS weirdly extremely surreally nostalgic. and anyone saying "it's because of the chords they used", no. yes they are using familiar chords, like millions of other songs, but that doesn't mean every time a song uses those chords you think "omg this sounds so nostalgic". quite the opposite, those chords are actually completely normalized, because we hear them constantly; those are not the "standout" factor here, and the fact that the progression is very "standard" is what makes it even more fascinating how this track stands out in a surreally different way
So weird. I’ve been seeing 555 every where none stop then I stumble across this song
Juanita Lackey same, finally someone else... more people need to see this and like this comment. Something different is coming...
Me too. Also I looked up 555 and it says it's the number of jesus christ... I also had a very vivid dream/nightmare and woke up right at 555.
Get you a man who looks at you the way Jimmy looks at his cultists.
Garrett St. Amand goals.
Hes so proud, like a father 😂
if i could laugh reacc i would lol
Underrated comment. After reading it I can't rewatch without giggling when he slow zooms across the sea of faces.
Phyre comment bro....phyre! !
This is one of my favorite music videos ever, the aesthetic and mood are absolutely perfect.
top 3 of the best songs of the group the sound, the voices, the tune of the music, everything is very good ...
I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!
This character is so cool and definitely needs a backstory, and the song is even more badass.
total trash
@@jimmyrodopski8265 glad to see you're in the minority on that one 😂
@@jimmyrodopski8265 with a name like that you should reconsider
@@salamander6062 haters hahahahah
i didn't like this song at first but it's my jam now
He looked so happy and proud when he took off the glasses lol
He's supposed to look that way at that point of the song. ;)
Adam Crawford I know and it makes me happy he’s finally doing what he wants!
That's the point!
@@michaelwatson1390 He's proud of his sheep army he built.
Adam Crawford sheep army lmaoooo
Always had a special spot in my soul for them, they've got me through so much
I love this. It reminds me of some of the emotional pop songs that were out when I was a kid, from people like Genesis, Peter Gabriel, Cyndi Lauper, etc.
Why is this song so underrated??? I don't understand.❤❤❤🖤🤍 I'm pretty sure I've watched this video over 50 times now. SO GOOD!!!
This is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave Acoustic” by SLT 🤘🎶🤘

Still better than Disney’s Star Wars 😂
😆😆😆
@@GLBizzie sexist
Nik Bieghler how does that make me a sexist?
"We interrupt this Jimmy Eat World album to bring you Peter Gabriel."
They do some great Peter Gabriel
Peter Gabriel has any song that is similar to this one? I need more THIS in my life
@@thales6790 Yeah, some of his songs are in this vein. "Come Talk to Me" from Us, among other songs from that album; much of the album Up, "Mercy Street" from So (and "In Your Eyes", for that matter), and others I can't think of right now.
Damn..... True. Never thought of that.... Wow. You called it.....
Kinda reminds me of muse.
Their sound has matured so much since "in the middle" or "sweetness" which were both also landmark for their time. I don't know how this song didn't hit harder with people because It's amazing. It doesn't quite make me cry like "drugs or me" but it's so interesting to listen to.
Cautioners, Sundown, or Hear You Me doesn't make you cry???
Will always think of Mike Gill when I hear this song, thanks for preserving him a bit in this tune
it's crazy. this song feels so poppy and modernist...but when you actually listen, most of that feeling comes from the drums. the bass is doing the heavy lifting, the guitars are atmospheric and nigh nonexistant. coupled with the drums mostly using MIDI pads instead of acoustic drums.
the reality is that this song is way more acoustically oriented than most of what is considered rock by the radio industry these days. this is real rock. just compositionally modernized.
tazmon122 felt the same vibes “musician
Great comment, guitar as texture, bass as melody, very new wave feel.
Feel that bass come up and feel like its going to wash over you and it stops and another punches you in the guts! Genius!!!
The song in general is pretty good - but why on earth do all the vocals nowadays have sooo much processing?!?!? My 12 and 15 year olds won't even listen unless it has mega processing and auto-tune.
ابلااللللللتتتتت
This band has helped me pull through some very dark periods in my life.
I can relate to that. Oddly enough, when this video dropped I was going through some really really heavy stuff and I was literally thinking about how I can't change anything that's going on no matter how bad I want to then this song pops up on my feed. Once again, Jimmy Eat World comes out what's something I need to hear at a very dark time
Amen to that...JEW, over the last 15 years has been a 'go-to' for me.
Mu brother died in 2011 of lung cancer. Jimmy Eat World got me through some really really shit days. I just got to see them live for this albums release in the UK last month and it has reminded me how much they affected and helped my life. I genuinely can say they are my favourite band now and forever. Also on the off chance any of them read this. Thanks for getting me through the worst time in my life. I wouldn't be here without you guys.
"Pain" always helped 🤝
That song just got to the moment when i was like listnening for songs of my teenage like "work", "pain", unheard for decades, when i heard that, standing in a winter forest alone, being a little high. and just wow!!
Such a great band. This song is so poignant. Such a great 80's-early 90's vibe.
"Never had anything to prove
But never was anyone like you
All you fought through, all you had to face
Made you stronger, unafraid"
