Battle Born right? They were the reason I didn't lose my mind. If I heard one more Amy Grant song I'd have lost my mind. Hawk Nelson was the closest I could get to listening to "normal" music. They got me through high school.
Maybe they’ll recruit Jason Dunn back in the band and they’ll return to the true Hawk Nelson sound!!!! I’m sorry but ever since Jason left they sucked.
I was in elementary school when HN came to my church to play. Fell in love, I remember hunching over my original Xbox to play their CD's, HN was all I ever listened to back then. I was so heartbroken when I heard that Jason left the band, I heard "Words" on a church lock-in, and all I remember was saying, "This is NOT Hawk Nelson." Miss their old stuff, brings back some fond memories.
A Five Iron Frenzy/Hawk Nelson with Jason Dunn tour is long overdue. It makes perfect sense when Hawk were originally a Canadian band singing about California, and FIF is an American band that wrote a song called Oh, Canada.
This is the one Hawk Nelson song I can remember from back in the day that I can pick right off the top of my head. I actually really like their new music! I sing it all time! But more importantly: Did no one else notice Jason Dunn's ThunderCats wrist band?! That's like the epitome of my childhood right there!
LOL- this video was the story of my life the year it came out. that year I moved out to California (san diego). i dont live there any more, but it was fun singing this song while arriving. :D
I used church to find family and wasn't allowed to listen to anything besides church approved music. My church in Brownsville Oregon took us to see them in person. Portland Oregon 2008
This song is so nostalgic. Bring back so many memories. Hawk Nelson are still good, but their new music doesn't come close to their earlier years, that's for sure.
A girl in elementary school mentioned this song so many times before. It wasn't until I first joined RUclips that I heard it and I've loved it since. Thanks, Tassia.
2:29 Travor from Thousand Foot Krutch, lol. He helped these guys get noticed, wrote a few songs with them, and sings on some too (he does the screaming on Like A Race Car).
I had the BIGGEST crush on the singer like wanted to marry him he's still so cute but man I went to the shows an would try so hard to get a autograph but could never get one. Still love them
And this why my home state of CA is slammed packed!!!!! CA was so RAD in the 90’s now you can’t move or anywhere in under an hour it seems most days!!!!!
im only 14 and I've been listening to hawk nelson, switchfoot, yellowcard, blink 182, and flyleaf since i was in elementary school. And the best console was the original xbox!
"Let's pack up and move to Wisconsin, she's got lots of cows out there. We'll never get bored 'cause we can go tippin'. Let's let the sunshine take us there." Thank you, whoever made that sign, and Jason for going along with it for a second time.
This band is amazing great Christian men great musicians and they harmonize perfectly they make me want to move to California! And 17 people wont be moving to California!
they look soo young here! i remember being OBSESSED with them when i was in high school. man i miss those times. and jason i was totally obsessed with, so lucky i got to meet him. good times.
I remember listening to this song so many times as a 9 year old 😂😂😂 and every time I mention about California to my dad, he always sing that song to start with, “Let’s pack up and move to California!” 😂😂😂😂😂😂
i saw this band like 2 days ago live for free!!!! n it was 1st time hearing them i love them n i got he whole bands autoraph on my bag and the bass guitarist daniel biro liked my shirt tht said Homophobia is Gay!!!!!!!!!!! i wass so happy=)!
@@thejasondunnmusic Totally just stumbled across this comment. Finally! The original lineup was when the band was at it's best. Looks like I'll be adding some new music today!
Oh snap! I’m an adult, I haven’t heard this song since I was in High School. Literally only looked it up because I heard the lead singer is not a Christian. Pop punk was sooo fun!
This is the most 2000's thing that exists.
Saunders Drukker yes!
Let’s pack up and move to california
If your song was on smallville then it's automatically a 2000s classic
Dude this comment.... and thos responses... I nearly dropped my flip phone... hahahhahahah🤣
No way my guy! It’s totally Fat Lip by sum-41!
As a teenager who wasn't allowed to listen to anything that wasnt considered christian, i loved this band. And this was my jam
Battle Born right? They were the reason I didn't lose my mind. If I heard one more Amy Grant song I'd have lost my mind. Hawk Nelson was the closest I could get to listening to "normal" music. They got me through high school.
Angee Kallam same 100% with me. I think I discovered public radio in grade 11
Battle Born you and me both brother
Battle Born I feel this on a personal level. Without bands like hawk nelson I wouldn't have survived my teen years lmao
Haha me too! I only was allowed to listen to Christian music. I loved hawk Nelson, subseven, falling up, anberlin life house.. I could go on haha
Original Hawk Nelson I miss this type of music it's so Rare now a days.
Now our only hope is relie- oh... ummm anberl- no they broke up... um... yeah your right.
yep a lot of modern secular pop punk do not measure up to reliant k and hawk nelson.
I think the only band that still kinda does rock is swtichfoot otherwise all of them have changed to pop.
Vacaciones switchfoot changed too.
Westdog they did!? Relient K?
15 years later and I still know every word to every song on this album.
12 years actually
I know that because I was born in 2009
@@alexbaird7674 The album came out in '04, so 17 years now. Regardless, I feel old now.
Yes
Same
that moment you realize you haven't heard this song in 7 years
nathan blake make that 8 years for me
nathan blake same man, same
12 years later xD
Almost 15 years for me
I love how Trevor shows up to save the day at the end!🤘
I miss this Hawk Nelson.
Anyone else watching this after reading about the lead singer saying he is no longer a Christian? lol
This song had Jason Dunn as lead singer. Jon started leading later
@@ethancundiff6422 I didnt know that. Thanks for saying. I thought this guy was that guy.
Jason Dunn left the band for some reason not about his faith
Maybe they’ll recruit Jason Dunn back in the band and they’ll return to the true Hawk Nelson sound!!!! I’m sorry but ever since Jason left they sucked.
This is pre Jon steingard. This is the Jason Dunn originals! I would love if they somehow got him back!
2020: "Let's pack up and leave California"
EXACTLY
yup, the locations they filmed are now tent cities
Hahahaha Demoncrats effect
I love this song and video so much and Trevor McNevan being in it just makes it perfect!
I click play. Everything goes dark. Suddenly I am in my high school cafeteria, headphones on, chicken nugget in hand...
Lol nice! And so true!
EXACTLY!!
For real lol
XD lol
Johnny 99 ^ Found the Vegan smh
The new hawk nelson is good, but THIS was what I loved in highschool!
I'm crying I miss the 2000's
Kedukhono Neikha same uuuuuuuuhhhh
RIP Real Hawk Nelson
so sad tho
Amen. After Jason left, they became another generic contemporary Christian band
Let’s be honest: real Hawk Nelson was the album after this one.
@@thejasondunnmusic What's Up Jason Buddy!! :)
One of my go to songs...brings back memories..take me back please....🙂🙂🙂
I was 23 when this song came out
Now my kids want me to play this song for them in 2019 😃
I was in elementary school when HN came to my church to play. Fell in love, I remember hunching over my original Xbox to play their CD's, HN was all I ever listened to back then.

You saw the real hawk nelson! I love the old stuff so much
I know Jason personally he goes to my church and sings a lot. He still has just as much energy.
@@egannorton7349if thats true, thats actually really awesome man. Glad to hear he is still christian

Aww I remember this song I loved it sooooooooo much and still do I first heard it on gospel music channel those were the days.

Trevor!!! awesome!! 😄
Suddenly I'm in high-school again. :)
Man. Life was sooooooo good back in those days. Wish I could go back and never leave.
Christ Is Risen That's exactly what I was thinking!
This song is so nostalgic. Bring back so many memories. Hawk Nelson are still good, but their new music doesn't come close to their earlier years, that's for sure.
i love this song! I was born in California! lol But now i live in Florida! Jason is so adorable! lol =D
Still one of the best pop punk songs of all time
Also dat trev cameo doh

Holy cow. My childhood. Youth group, disciple-now weekends, lock ins at church. The good old days.
The perfect end song for a senior.
And this why my home state of CA is slammed packed!!!!! CA was so RAD in the 90’s now you can’t move or anywhere in under an hour it seems most days!!!!!

Back when Hawk Nelson was good.

Nostalgia man..
I miss the original Pop Punk Hawk Nelson. I discovered them on Wow Hits.
Oh snap! I’m an adult, I haven’t heard this song since I was in High School. Literally only looked it up because I heard the lead singer is not a Christian. Pop punk was sooo fun!
This was the original lead singer. He left in 2012. It’s the current lead singer who said he wasn’t a Christian anymore
I met these guys at cornerstone. Had no idea who they were. Super nice guys. They gave me a copy of this cd
THIS SONG IS LITERALLY ME, I LOVE CALIFORNIA SO MUCH
CAN I SUBSCRIBE TO THE OLD HAWK NELSON?
This song is still amazing on 2017
this is the first song i ever fell in love with
