if I had a nickel for every time a 00's neon pop punk band made a pop country album in the 2010's I'd have 2 nickels
God that Boys Like Girls album sucked
It was strange both bands went in that direction. Was not a huge fan of the sound.
@@yankeexdev i love the sound,, i think because my taste is more towards folk and less punk.
@@akane1928I think wild and free is amazing. Makes me sad :(
You should do The Summer Set. I was obsessed with their song Chelsea.
In 2010, I was 18 and a freshman in college in Kentucky. I was obsessed with the “On Your Side” album! I remember playing it all the time from my iPod touch while roaming around EKUs campus. Oh, to be young again 🥲
oh one I didn’t know about. I’m ready to learn! I saw you post Scotty Vanity on IG… are we getting that video 😅
Fear of flying is my fave
The song Dakota has no business still living in my head rent free in 2024 at the most random times.
Same here! My name is Dakota so I end up singing about myself hahaha
This is so crazy. I literally just rediscovered On Your Side a few days ago and thought to myself, "Man, this would be a great band for The Cozy Representative to cover!" And here we are. I'll get my popcorn.
Babe wake up new scene lore just dropped
its interesitng how this "scene"/era (and i mean the more neon/power pop side of scene music) is pretty much not codified or spoken on outside of your channel but will inevitably have some big comeback in 10 years when the next generation finds out about it
Please do one on Owl City or Plugin Stereo! I love your videos!
I think, it will be a good idea to create a playlist to accompany the history of the band!
"Annabelle" may be one of the strongest songs to come out of the neon pop-punk scene. Unbelievably good.
From Hellogoodbye to t-pain hahahaha now that's range
Have a soft spot for this band. I still listen to them today.
Baby, we’re invincible by Rocket to the Moon will always be a banger
Great video. I still think ARTTM holds up in 2024! And I love Nick’s band Beach Weather.
You should do the history behind The Secret Handshake next.
DUDE YES I've been waiting forever for a video on RTTM
I freaking love you dude thank you 🎉
I recently discovered your channel and I’m so glad I did. I’m happy I have a place where I can learn about all the emo lore that I missed :D
The Maine is one of the few bands that did the “country-adjacent” thing right. Black & White’s country beats weren’t jarring. It all blended together really well. I haven’t heard anything new since American Candy though so I’m not sure if they kept that vibe, but John’s voice is really suited for it
Their newest self titled is more dance like. John doesn't really have a country vibe or voice in any of their recent work. Everything from American Candy onwards is gold!
"I Do" from Wild & Free was my wife and I's wedding song haha love this band. Thanks for the vid Cozy
I was at The Maine’s Boston show this past December and I had no idea Nick Santino was from A Rocket to the Moon! I would have been so much more excited when he walked on stage if I knew!
You're videos always feel like a treat!
God I loved their very first album, the old MySpace stuff.
Very glad to catch this one so early, your documentaries are some of my favorite on youtube these days. Even when I don't know the bands super well. Keep em coming.
Watching your videos is always a pleasure, I could not know or care much about these bands but as long as it's you telling them I'm all ears!!
I agree with literally EVERYTHING you said about this band. I loved everything they did in the early days, even nick’s solo stuff. But wild and free just made me switch off.
Fear of flying will al again be a comfort song for me :)
Dang this is a throwback. I loved these guys and go back to their music from time to time.
Cozi your videos make my day. Thank you.
“Not a Second to Waste” is still one of my top 10 songs of all time 😭😭😭
U are looking cozier then ever 😍
i fear the day you run out of bands to talk about. i love these videos so much man.
Also the neon pop punk to failed country album pipeline really needs to be talked about more lol
I loved their earlier solo electro pop stuff! I still have their stuff on my phone.
Plz do kill paradise so curious about their story :) awesome video as always
You _BETTER_ be the cool uncle by now!
OOOooHHhhh DAAkkkOOtttAAA 🎸🎙🎶
These videos always give me life. I went down a rabbit hole of my early 2000s jams and they were one of my top artists along with Flyleaf and I always wondered what happened to them?!?
I THINK ABOUT YOU EVERYDAAAAY
Gosh I love this channel
Please do a video on emo rap at some point.
Oh man, I loved a rocket to the moon! My high school boyfriend was named Dakota and I was obsesssssed with that song. So nostalgic.
Eric comes out once every two years as Ted Lavender to DJ for 8123 fest 😂
love u cozy! hope u make post hardcore content at some point again, i looked forward to it every month tbh
Mr Right still slaps
Can’t think of a band from this time that went through so many different musical style changes but did each style really well! Baby we’re invincible is still a classic from the MySpace days!
Holy shit, is your avatar pic Farewell?
@@ReanuKeaves1yes! Finally someone notices haha. Had it like this for years now!
Wild and free was an amazing album. Fight me.
oh how i miss them
It would be cool to see a video on The Ready Set
MISSED U!!
The only reason I know this band is because they have a song with my name called Annabelle. It is now my anthem due to being really good despite it actually being really rude.
HOLD ON A MINUTE- THEY COME FROM MY STATE TOO? THIS IS TOO IRONIC NOW!
You should do a video on the rise and fall of 3oh!3
Great band to cover! Remember they were pretty big in Mass. Matt Squire also did Northstar’s masterpiece Pollyanna & TBS New Again just to name a couple of my favorites he worked on
I absolutely love Wild & Free. Yes it was cheesy, but the whole album was super catchy! I do still think that Greetings From... is their best work. That EP slaps.
Fit is hard today dawg
I always loved the rainy day sessions EP they did with Larkin Poe in 2010 which I guess was like part of their descent into country after on your side came out. The songs they picked really leant themselves well to that like slow, harmony-focused kind of style though and Larkin Poe have always been brilliant, I wonder if maybe that partly inspired the vision of the next album but who knows! I'd be interested to know how that record came about anyway
OMG the nostalgia! I used to talk to Nick's gf at the time, around 2008, on MySpace while they toured. Ended up doing street team stuff and making fan art for them. They had it up on their website. I miss this era of music, was such a fun time. Great video, Cozy!
Please! We need a Shai Hulud doc!!! I will post this on all of your videos until you relent!!
Great lyrics, great musicianship, terrible lead vocalist. Awful range, Terrible technique and a lot of flat notes.
They didn't make it for a reason.
I was supposed to see Rocket perform with The All-American Rejects back in 2011 at my college at the time..I was so bummed when they ended up not coming. But it makes sense now with all of their touring/record label issues. Thanks Cozy for bringing me some closure to this 😅
My first concert was A Rocket to the Moon, Secondhand Serenade, Automatic Loveletter, and Cute is What We Aim For. Those were the days!
I saw this after listening to some of Beach Weathers music, I still love playing Baby blue eyes on guitar haha
Saw the maine a couple of months ago and I have a priceless video of the guys vibing to Like We Used To after the concert, love that they’re all friends still, love that A Rocket to the moon’s music still lives
great video as always julian, i would love to see a video on Zebrahead someday if u know about them. They are so fun live & they've been around for a WHILE at this point
I definitely had a poster of them on my wall and saw them several times but they were so mid lol. BUT, I have a friend named Dakota so that song persists in my life..
I must have completely stopped paying attention because I have no memory of this country era. Breaking up 6 weeks after a release is wild.
a rocket to the moon is one of my favorite bands of all time, and i’m planning on using their song “somebody out there” for my wedding (another incredible song of the wild and free album)
I love your videos!! Don’t even know this band at all but was happy to see an upload from you. Enjoyed as always
a rocket to the moon truly shaped my middle school years.. what a time :’)
your channel is an actual gem, its gotta be cherished foreve! forever repping the cozy rep!
My very first concert ever was the Kids in the Streets tour by AAR and ARTTM was the opener, so this weird little band will always have a place in my heart as the first band I ever saw
I know youre branching out to new stuff recently but id love a story on death cab for cutie and the postal service some time 💙
Greetings From is such a perfect little EP, and for a band's first official release at that.
on your side and greetings from are still everyday staples for me, they’ve aged well! ❤
You should do one of these retrospective videos about Secondhand Serenade.
I honestly preferred the early electro A Rocket to the moon stuff
Summer '07 EP is still slept on IMO; "Baby We're Invincible" and "Are You Catching My Drift Yet?" live rent free in my head to this day. Still remember downloading it off PureVolume.
I don't think the pop-country pivot was *that* strange, looking at what started blowing up in the early 2010s, with the rise of "Indie" bands like Mumford and Sons that drew on the hipster-meets-Nashville aesthetic. Boys Like Girls and Quietdrive tried the roots/folky stuff on their last couple albums in the 2012/2014 era, and Every Avenue was headed down the same path (if the lead singer hadn't gone to prison). Heck, how many emo/scene kids grew into the hipsters of the 2010s? I do think a lot of the bands that took that path were chasing trends to some degree and that's never a good sign. It seems like Beach Weather is embracing the lo-fi, heavily produced/distorted vocals vibe of early ARRTM and maybe that's where Nick Santino always wanted to be.
After reading your comment, I'm checking Nick's new band. I recently rediscovered Your Best Idea and remembered why I was obsessed with that album. I always preferred ARTTM when it was a solo project.
wild & free really ruined them ugh 😟
Could you talk about the band get scared?
Still listen to them
Time to get cozy
Tell me what happened to Artist vs Poet 🙏🏻
never heard of them before. I hope you will do new videos about more popular bands and their rise & fall.
I really appreciate your service to my 00’s neon pop punk nostalgia that I refuse to let go of 🫡
I love ur videos sm I was wondering if you could maybe cover fear before the march of flames cuz I just found them n would love to kno more. Also did u know that ur vid is sampled in a Dallas cowboys song “if I were that quirky id kms” at least I’m pretty sure
