Dude, they were famous around the world for like 10 years and sold millions of albums. They were on the halo 2 ost, and the daredevil ost. Look at my username lol. It's been that since 2000.
I never understood why people hate on hoobastank, I enjoy their music. I saw them live when they opened for incubus in 2006. I was incredibly impressed at how great they were live. Incubus was great as well.
@Eric L I saw Incubus a long time ago and barely remember. I've been to so many shows. My favorite venues are outdoors. We have a place in Mich called Pine Knob that's really great.
@@elagace03 ive never seen them live but ive seen lots of live videos on youtube over the years and i gotta say Incubus genuinely sounds fucking amazing live
Whenever I want to lose braincells i come to the youtube comment section on any popular song.. Like the comments of every MGK video "wow11!! gutiar and emo isnt dead11!" or "This extremely popular band is underrated!" bruh

The best kind of music and musicians are often overlooked and underrated its a shame because the overall message of this song could and should have reached more people it's unfortunate that this song wasn't bigger than it was because it's so fucking good...
Goosebumps every time I listen to this. Adhd has put a huge grip on my day to day life. So many times of being overstimulated to the point self harm seemed better than trying to process all the feelings/thoughts.
Oh memories... the image of this song with the engine of old rusty cars running to get ready for some wreck fest is still in my mind. Driven to Destruction = Best Game Ever!
This bring me back some nostalgic and fresh memories, the period of videogames and Viva plus.... :'( I used to see the world differently and that song which is the sequel of "The Reason" has crucially gave me some unique feeling and by listening to it again it affects completely my emotions in the way in which it gives me goosebumps and take me far away.
vaya yo iba a cumplir 6 en el 2003 :´) ahora tengo ya 17 ,pero esta canción la recuerdo muy bien porque a mis primos les gustaba con out of control , que rápido pasa el tiempo ;D
Hoobastank's set on Saturday, May 13, 2023 at the Sick New World festival in Las Vegas was one for the ages. They opened with this track, and it was pure energy and enthusiasm throughout the entire set. Since it was basically a metal festival, Doug introduced "The Reason" by announcing "This is the heaviest, most brutal song you're gonna hear all day," and then did some hilarious death growls over the opening notes before starting to actually sing. The whole band radiated an awesome, energetic attitude. Pure positivity. I'm primarily a metal fan, but I have to admit, Hoobastank were one of my favorite acts of the day. Pure fun rock and roll.
I watched The Reason and afterwards Same Direction and I now understand that Same Direction is the continue of The Reason..and it's fucking amazing! Just a short story..love it!
I love this song, I love this album! And I remember coming back from middle school, blasting the whole album while doing homework. Yes, how time really flies!
@@mid-s_to_earlysViBEZ This. Dumb gen Z kids wanting to appear cool by posing as if they listened to this song at its time of release...when they don't even know the difference between the RUclips upload date and the song's actual release date.
Am I the only one that has seen this video for the fist time? I didn't even knew there was a sequel to The Reason video. Seeing a cameo appearance from Kanye West and Joel Madden just blew my mind but seeing Chester Bennington just brought tears of joy. Glad I discover this jem.
Well I never knew that the reason video had a follow on video! this was a pretty fantastic surprise seeing this for the first time after 11 years of assuming the reason was it's own story.
A lot of the 2000s rock videos were filmed in my neighborhood, Northeast LA. Was lucky to see a few being filmed as a 15 year old back then. I’m 37 now.
I'm young, but it still makes me wanna feel too young.I listened this song after it was released (2005) I was in high school and enjoyed this year listening on MTV channel
Never knew more than the reason. Saw them open for Nickleback along with Hinder and 3 days Grace havening never heard of either if them. All 3 blew Nickleback off the stage. Hoobastank was the best out if the four
Anders Kristensen it makes a lot of sense, Kanye just signed to Def Jam and so did Hoobastank, Jay Z and Linking Park are friends, Jay knows Kanye and Chester so, I'm guessing that's why all the guest artists were in this
I don't care whether this is an underrated song ... for me this song is cool. I heard this song when I was 27 years old and now i still like the song very much
I hate when people feel it's necessary to simultaneously say that the don't like or aren't a fan of an artist but they love that same person's or artist actual art isn't that the definition of what a fan is ? I'm just saying..
@@EYEWILL39 you can like one or two specific songs by an artist and still not be a fan of them cause the rest of the music isn't your taste or style. i fucking HATE Five Finger Death Punch but id be lying if i said i hated their song Coming Down cause i genuinely fucking adore the shit out of that song.
You guys are thanking the "special stars" who joined this video, instead of the real humble stars who invited them to this video because they admired them. We should be admiring the guys who are doing what they can to climb to the top and get something to eat... What is going wrong with this world....
I used to love putting in my ear buds and tucking my mp3 inside my riding suit and hit the mountains on my ZX9R back when this was new. Good times on a bike let me tell ya. Damn I miss the late 90's and early 00's.
How cool was those time. When all gather to show in this video. R.I.P sir Chester. I hope everyone stsy strong. Believe that there always be a better solution for each problem. Love yourself. Love your family and love the people.who love you. Life are priceless. People can't be replace.
This is one of the best songs in this era, but that’s my opinion. I miss music like this. I can’t believe how fast Dan and Doug were running from the police! I know Chris got handcuffed, I’m just not sure where what happened to Markku. These guys are awesome. I know Markku isn’t in the band anymore, but boy I wish he was.
People likes "The Reason", but this is THE BEST SONG of this band.

Dude, they were famous around the world for like 10 years and sold millions of albums. They were on the halo 2 ost, and the daredevil ost.
Look at my username lol. It's been that since 2000.
I can't wait to see them at Sonic Temple in 2025. Super hyped.
HE WAS A COP ALL ALONG, nearly 15 years after I saw the original video and this is a bombshell!
If your listening to Hoobastank in 2024 you're probably old enough to remember when MTV played music videos 🔥
I’m a 90’s kid and I miss those days
I'm 16 and I feel shit that I wasn't a kid in the years where music like this was at it's peak
I certainly am lol
90's kid
Yup....Wait MTV still excysts?
So the lead singer is an undercover cop all along. It feels like a plot for every mediocore action movie ever.
And i love it
If they had chosen Chester, Kanye or Joel as their lead singer at the auditions they wouldn’t have been busted 🥺😅
@@zeesizzle7328 Well if the song is true, they would've been busted regardless.
Constants and variables. Being busted is the constant.
It is a classic entrapment by the cops as it turns out the entire crime is created by the cops to start with.
its like the movie Point Break except instead of surfers its a band lol
He looks the part for an early 2000s mediocre Action Movie as well!
*ONE OF THE BEST ERAS IN MUSIC*

If you’ve ever seen them live you would understand. They’re a soulless studio band.
They are not underrated LOL

@@heelturnsface what?!
Holy crap i just realized chester is a cameo in this
and I Kanye and Joel Madden :D
When Chester was Alive
When Kanye was down for anything
When Good Charlotte was relevant
Good times turn into memories
Remember when Hoobastank was so relevant they got Kanye West, Joel Madden, and Chester Bennington to be in their music video?

John Cusack is such a great singer.
dude I died laughing cuz its so true 😂
I think you meant Joseph Gordon Levitt
Arif Eren Kinda resembles him, but I think the singer from Trivium looks more like JGL
aka Mac from its always Sunny spot on
10/10 would kek again
songs with the potential to be hit
hoobastank was so underated

After 17 years I just recognized those cameos. Shame on me.
This song and "Just One" are not just songs. It's an athem of a generation and an era in music.
This is the first time ever I see this video. Never knew 'The Reason' has a sequel.
Goosebumps every time I listen to this. Adhd has put a huge grip on my day to day life. So many times of being overstimulated to the point self harm seemed better than trying to process all the feelings/thoughts.
Rest in Peace Chester. You have reached your final destination. God bless your soul.
except he wasn't murdered
Did you just not see chester in the clip? o-o
Not the whole video, but he's in it, and people will talk about him.
Chester sings the chorus of this song with Doug
omg why, im was not expect that :( rip chester
Listening in 2015

Test drive ❤️❤️❤️
@@BurnoutPJ That game had like 8 songs, but all of them were bangers

This was legit the first CD I ever bought, back when I was 12 lol, 21 now

Saw Hoobastank with 311 at Hammerstein Ballroom back in 02'...Brings back such great memories
"BUT I'M NOT EVER GONNA KNOW" PERFECT
the guitar is so juice in this one
Oh dear Chester...I don't know why, but suddenly I remembered Chester in this video...and I had to watch it
I love how it is like a movie....do artists do these anymore?
Look up 'Through Sin & Self Destruction'
It's screaming though
Fall Out Boy did the Youngblood Chronicles.
Madonna with Hung Up and Sorry videos
fall out boy did it with an entire album
and daft punk has a movie of videos!

How are Hoobastank considered one hit wonders when they have AT LEAST 5 popular singles, including this one? I don't understand.
I watched The Reason and afterwards Same Direction and I now understand that Same Direction is the continue of The Reason..and it's fucking amazing!
Just a short story..love it!
Andy WW yh it's pretty cool isn't it :)
I was mindblown when I found this out.
Andy Wolf Yes me too I undestood that it's the continue but I prefer The Reason
I wish out of control also played into it a little bit but this 2 pt video/song combo is absolutely insane
cameos by Chester Bennington of Linkin Park, Kanye West, and Joel Madden of Good Charlotte
OMG I just note up that Chester Bennington appears featuring this guys! We miss you a lot Chester RIP
This is the best hoobastank song ever!
I love this song, I love this album! And I remember coming back from middle school, blasting the whole album while doing homework. Yes, how time really flies!
All this years I never knew The Reason had a sequel.
the best video sequel is holliday and boulevard of broken dreams by green day
me neither
that chorus slaps every time!
Madden 2005 soundtracc was EPIC especially because of this song! 15+ and it still sound just as good
I would have loved to hear Chester cover this. RIP

Yeah The reason was pushed big on MTV back in the day but this wasn’t for some reason. I guess cause it’s more punkish and not so mainstream pop.
Seeing Chester Bennington, and Kanye West on this video gave me goosebumps lol! Love this video!!!
How'd they managed to get Kanye, Chester And Joel in its video, amazing.
The guitar parts in this jam is one of the biggest influences of why I play a PRS to date. Keep Loud!!!❤
One of the best videos i've ever seen. Underated song. Underated band.
Madden from 2005 through 2007 had the best soundtracks of all the Madden video games
nahhhhh...Try Madden 2003, ‘04, ‘10, and ‘12
Those are truly the F*CKING BEST!!!
nah 2003-11 for me..shit even 2002 had some good music that intro song was fire lmao
I'd say from 2003-2009 not a single miss in those games
I saw them two months ago at a festival. They opened up with this song and it was so so soooo awesome. Loved them ever since I was 3, I'm 15 now
what a handsome guy on the preview🤗
Hum this thing all over the way to school back in '04 after watched it almost every morning on MTV.
R.I.P. Chester first and foremost but also RIP to the old good Kanye West
I wanted to see this video again cause of Chester Bennington appearing at the beginning ... R.I.P. IDOL😢💔
Chester Bennington of Linkin Park, Kanye West, and Joel Madden of Good Charlotte

Big up from Bulgaria bros
Never knew more than the reason. Saw them open for Nickleback along with Hinder and 3 days Grace havening never heard of either if them. All 3 blew Nickleback off the stage. Hoobastank was the best out if the four
Possibly one of the best songs I've heard so far in '09.
Damn, I love this song. Remember listening to it on the soundtrack of Madden 2005. One of the best game soundtracks.
Came here 10 years later to mention Madden 2005. Did so many practice drills with this in the background.

very underrated song.
