    Bnl has always made catchy meaningful songs, this is the same as what they've always been, just because it has a different sound doesn't make them a completely different. This is good music. They are a good band. And that's how things are going to stay

    Glad to see they are still making good, catchy music. Heard this song live outside of San Jose, great times.

    My favorite band of all time. I grew up listening to you guys. The lyrics about love, childhood, and popular culture references were something I could relate to. Really looking forward to the new album. From what I've heard so far, it'll be right up there with your early hits.

    The bnl are one of my favourite bands since I was a kid. It feels so weird to see only ~200k views on a song that I LOVE, I feel like this deserves so much more.

    There's a little bit of a country-music feel to this one. Does anyone else get the same vibe? Looking forward to the album. It took months of listening for the last one to grow on me. We'll just have to wait and see. GO BNL!

    Four and a half months ago the woman I love left for an exchange. Things happened while she was gone and we have had an awful falling out. These last two months have been some of the most trying emotional times of my life.
    We're going on a vacation together. It was planned before she even left and while the future looks pretty bleak there's still a small chance that she and I might find what we loved about each other again.
    This song is so wonderfully upbeat and almost tragically hopeful. It was like BNL found some quirky way to say what I've been feeling in the simplest language imaginable. Thank you guys, the song's perfect.
    If you ever see this: I love you Alysha. I'll see you soon.
    - Your Hopeful Boomerang.

    Oh no, I didn't mean that in any type of a way. I was making fun our age. The reason they are still around and making music is because of the younger generation knowing talent and supporting it. It is because of you guys that they are able to mature and grow. I, and I am sure they, thank you for this as the "Old School" get to reap the rewards of this, such as this friggin awesome song. Please don't be so defensive, I meant no harm. Not everyone on here are "trolls". Peace man, peace.

      I'm glad this song has meaning to you and I wasn't trying to personally insult you. At my work this song is played 1-2 times per shift EVERY single day. It gets old for one and I find the lyrics insulting to relationships in general. If a woman dumps you and all you can do is wait to come back, that's pretty sad to me. Carry on, sorry I was rude. Opinions, etc, make the world interesting.

    What I want to know is why these guys are not popular again? Sure, Steve left, but these guys are still good, if not better. I would love to be driving down the road and hear one of these guys songs on the radio instead of most of the garbage they put on these days. I mean come on... Fancy???

    • @mpc1209
      @mpc1209 10 лет назад +1

      I work across the country so I listen to the radio a lot in the van and I've heard them a ton of times on BBC Radio 2, they play a lot of new tracks as well. I've also heard them on a few local stations but they only play One Week...

    • @FatNinjaWalrus
      @FatNinjaWalrus 10 лет назад +1

      i think part of the problem is that these last couple albums have sounded very 2000's
      BNL always sounded really unique musically, but recently they've started sounding like other groups. granted, they have a right to head in whatever musical direction they want, but i think in doing so they lost part of their appeal and individuality, at least to me. i have tons of songs from their first albums, but only a couple from their new ones.

    • @AstralFrost
      @AstralFrost 9 лет назад

      +Riddle King Lots of great bands in this vein who had success in the past are getting far less attention than they did in the 90s and early 2000s. I don't know why. I guess the market has changed. It's too bad because I heard this right after some bad Rihanna ballad and thought, "Wow, that is one hell of a contrast!"

    I didn't say he was going to return, but it was a plea to. I know Steve has repeatedly said it's not a situation where any of them can give a definitive answer to other than "not at this time." All you need to do is check their twittering to see how the dynamics play out.

    It can be difficult to communicate and express tone, gentleness and emotion in under 500 characters while not fully understanding to whom a person is writing to.

    This is one thing that i just can't relate too. Older bands grow up, their music is bound to change. It's unfair to expect people to make the same music even when they aren't the same people(sometimes literally).
