That one instrument, that sounds like a buzz, also adds a little more to the unnerving vibe. Sure it's in rhythm, but it doesn't really sound like it belongs with the rest of the song.
Yeah yet you then realize, people are messing it up with edgy school shooting jokes even though it`s about awareness and well, some people link the song to one shooter
@@djamtz You also have to consider, that instead of being sensitive about the topic, they at least try to make a gag out of it even if it's vulgar, because they're aware that it's an occurring thing. So the song is doing its part to spread awareness, I mean it has been years since this song was released I'm pretty sure most of the people aren't that insensitive and knows exactly what this song is about.
My husband used to listen to this song a lot before he passed away. Now I'm sitting here listening with our 2 yr old son and he is just vibing along. I know he misses his dad. I hope this music takes him to that moments of happiness that they shared. It's hard for me but I know it is for him as well he just isn't able to decipher it and communicate. But I can tell this song brings back memories and I will always play this song for him. We love and miss you daddy ❤️🩹
I realized the lyrics immediately but it was interesting to see how everyone else slowly pieced it together. Still one of my favorite songs even after all these years.
I think it's because they like you, me I do the same and even my father become more friendly to me, but he always say: "You know, you should probably go to the psychologue"

i love the song and i know the meaning just because the lyrics arent happy and fit the beat doesnt mean its going to be bad hes not going to stop liking it because it means bad stuff the song is fire
@keithlukens4400 god this was so long ago, but nothing happened, apparently it was some creep stealing one of my schoolmate's picture and pretending to be him
This song would be great for that one movie scene where you know the best friend that betrays everyone in the end, and it's about to happen, but RIGHT before it, they show you the flash back montage of the last time he was still your best friend. Damn that'd be a cold scene

When I was little, I never knew the actual lyrics to this song. I just thought it was a chill song meant to groove. But, now that I am older and understand the lyrics, I realize that this song has a much darker feeling.

The synth sound in the background of the chorus really makes this song for me. It adds that whole eerie and nostalgic vibe to it.
This song was composed to resemble a 1950s commercial jingle. That's why.
That one instrument, that sounds like a buzz, also adds a little more to the unnerving vibe. Sure it's in rhythm, but it doesn't really sound like it belongs with the rest of the song.
I have nostalgic vibe with this song from my school.
Not the good one
The synth is much more pronounced in the live version which I think sounds better. ruclips.net/video/EosqUZxIzXo/видео.html
And if it’s slowed, The nostalgia hits 10x
