Lyrics:
High school seemed like such a blur,
I didn't have much interest in sports or school elections.
And in class I dreamed all day,
Of a rock 'n' roll weekend
And the girl in the front of the room,
So close yet so far y'know she never seemed to notice
That this silly schoolboy crush
Wasn't just pretend.
Life goes by so fast
You only want to do what you think is right.
Close your eyes and then it's past;
Story of my life 
Видеоклипы
The music never gets old, but I do. Story of my life.
Cheers to that mate
We sure do, brother. Way she goes
This comment made me laugh way too hard in a time i didn't think i could laugh. Rock on 🤘
@@adamburnett202 hope you're doing good brother, or if you're not then hope there's some good in your future
Yeah. I'm so old now. 😢
I first heard of Social Distortion in high school in 1988-89 but never got into them. Maybe it was the songs I heard. Then in 1990 I was in the Army with this guy from Sacramento. On paper we were complete opposites. He was a skatepunk kid from California and I was a Cajun from a small town on the bayou in Louisiana. But boy did we click and it was magic. Went through basic, AIT, sent to Korea together and kept in touch over the years. He reintroduced me to them and I have loved the band ever since. Unfortunately he got murdered a few years back but every time I listen to this band I think about him. Rest easy Kevin. Our paths will cross again and if you get to the women and booze first just save some for me.
Thought that was such a nice message until i read the last part, sorry to hear that bro! Im sure you’ll meet again in time bud! Hope you had a good Christmas and have a happy new year my guy!💪
Thank you for your service !!
Thank you for your service and I’m sorry for your loss. Music is so powerful and this song is a testament to that.
I was in too deep with Dead Kennedy’s and Bad Brains and Black Flag DOA, etc... to appreciate this group in hs....was working out with buddy in Iraq and he played this song....I felt like I knew this song but was hearing it for the first time..... that was 2003 and i havent stopped blasting this song since
And sorry for the loss of your brother.... RIP Kevin...
My dad loved this song, apparently as a young man my dad would do smeared mascara like Mike Ness. I really miss him, he died last week. Rest in peace Dad
Sorry for your loss. Your Dad had great taste in music. 🎶 🎵
Sorry to hear about ur dad.
Your dad had great taste in music. May he fly high! 🤞🏽
Sorry buddy
another zane checking in, my dad always loved this one too. lucky i still have him. much love dude
Love that this guy wants you to hear every word he's saying. While most are hiding behind a busy noisy mix leaving you to interpret what they are trying to say, you dont have to guess with this guy. Need more of that!
Right that's called putting your heart into it!!!
I'm from the era where i get em both.. there is a time where it was easier to get the lyrics of the songs in print, so there came to be a focus on the feeling and raw expression of the anxt
Yeah, that's what punk rock/rock-a-billy is all about. You won't find instrumentals, but you will find lyrics with meaning that will cut through to your soul.
This song hits different when you get old...
aint that the fuckin truth :/
Nah. It’s still garbage.
True
50 and been punk rock since I was 14 in 1984. Won’t ever change either.
@@int0the3p1t32 Then why are you watching it?
I'm 41. Ive been listening to Social D since I was 16. Out of all the punk bands that I was into it, Social D may be the only one that never gets old. Mike Ness's music is timeless.
bad religion
There's tons of bands that "never get old" and alot of their songs are more relevant now than ever
Almost 47 and feel the same way. social D rules.
Rancid
that sad life
I'm 45 now. My best friend from high school introduced me to social d. She died several years ago but Mike still keeps it relavant. Rest in peace Court. I love you.
I lost my best friend 06, we did everything together. RIP brother!
C/O 95
Rest in peace, Court. I'll pull one out for you.
RIP Court! She has great taste!
I feel for the god giving eye brows.( They are from the gods) 💚
This song hits so much differently at 35 than it did at 12 when I first started getting into music. Makes me appreciate the good times a little more and helps me to keep my eyes set on the good times yet to be had, even if they seem so far away.
It's crazy how you can listen to it at various points in life and it hits you differently everytime
SOOO much from the 90's does. bout to be 40 myself... god... and we didn't get cable til i was like 10 or 12. and then got dial up internet when we moved into my step dad's house. but i always locked myself in my uncle's room, even though he never lived in that house, had all his stuff. his old record/8 track/cassette player, and all his old albums. brian setzer, the police, zeppelin... and bon scott era ac/dc. and those have always been a big part. but when i found my own music, i didn't get it at the time, but after i got older i started actually understanding it and gained an even deeper appreciation. like back then, i just liked it cause it sounded good, or it sounded angry and dark. cause i was one pissed off little kid. well, not so little after about 9. i was 260+ and 5'11" when i was 12, outweighed my dad when i was 9 or 10 and only about an inch shorter if that, people always see him for the first time and i get a weird look, like you're the mail man's kid... never would've made it without all the great music when i needed to laugh cry or tear something to shreds.
Middle school me listening to this song and thinking deeply as I look to the other side of the backyard reminiscing about all the good times I had there but it's been a few weeks already and things just aren't the same.
Adulthood felt like it took so long to reach and now childhood felt like it went by too fast. Makes me think of another song called Otterpops in the Icebox
"I only wish the good times would last a little longer" - hits home
charles rob you have no idea.... Used to listen to this record while cooking dinner with the woman that I KNEW I was gonna spend the rest of life with.... After seven years she walked away....
Feel that shit in my soul
And why they have to end :(
61 and still listening to Social D... Mike's music is timeless!!
This song hits hard when you're old, dumb, alone, at rock bottom, and tomorrow will be a new rock bottom. Life really does go by fast, and you can do everything you think is right and still be an utter failure. Treasure every moment.
Wowie legend
Brings back memories of skateboarding and no cellphone life was great back then
Yes it was. And even farther back it was even greater. I am gonna be 50 in few months & I remember skateboarding around
downtown Omaha, Nebraska in the Old Market area & being chased out of places we were just trying shred some tailbone
I still have my board.. a Powell Peralta R.I.P w/ the skeleton bursting its way out of the middle. I can't even begin to count how
many tailbones I went through. Growing up in the 70's & 80's were great. I especially loved the 70's!! They had ALL the best stuff
back then: The best music, the best movies, the best comic books, the best candy, the best toys, the best cars, the best & hottest
movie babes(Farrah Fawcett, Jacklyn Smith, Bo Derek just to name a few), the best video games & arcades, the best board games...
etc. Then the 80's happened. Here's my description of the 80's: School, job, cliques, conform, malls, bubblegum , jean jackets, spend,
party, coke(boththe liquid & powder), one-hit wonders, middle-class bourgeoisie exploited worker-class pawns.. Good thing the 90's
were a hell of a lot better. But here's the truth: when the 80's were happing, we were all caught up in it, not knowing exactly wtf we were
doing. Then in the 90's , we looked back at the 80's and thought wtf were we doing? Those clothes? Those hair styles? That music we
listened to?(Well not me, I listened to Punk Rock) While everyone around me were jumping on the bandwagon, I was avoiding it like
it was the plague. Still do. I wanted to do my own thing, and still do. I encourage every one of you who reads this: do your own thing.
Don't ever let someone else decide what you should do. Or tell you what is best for you. Figure it out yourself. You'll be a better person
for it & respect yourself a little more in the long run. I leave you with this: The only person responsible for where you are today in your life...
is you. Take care of you. It's no one else's responsibility. Think for yourself & make your own mind up, and never be afraid of acquiring
the best of something. You'll always be happy with it. And you deserve it. Your happiness is not a destination or a place to arrive at in
your life. Happiness, my friends.. is a "Manner of Traveling".
I'm out.
Late
~ This announcement has been brought to you by big d's Channel of Outspoken Knowledge ! !
Life was perfection back then. My biggest problem was how I was going to have sex with bandages wrapped from my wrists to my shoulders due to skinned up elbows and arms from eating shit street skating.

Kevin Manders The future is now old man
@@Patrick-Not-Star I mean...This is true unless you're a fan of real music. In that case, there is no future, simply the past.
Social D. got me through a lot of bad times. These guys are gold.
I don't mean to be a smartass but what does Mike ness have to do with this song?
Other than he’s the singer? Not sure what you mean.
Same here. Love this.
Me too
Mike Ness is definitely one of the coolest guys in punk rock. Love this band ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Cowpunk xD
Punk... pffft. 🤣🤣
Chaos UK is punk

My dad loved social distortion, he was hardcore punk rock back in his teenage years and lived a life really similar to this song.
He ended having a stroke two years back and ended up going into a coma he never came out of. While he was in the hospital I sat and listened to this song daily with him, I love this song but it brings me tears almost every time so I listen to it sparingly. Anyways I just wanted to share, thank you Social Distortion for bringing joy to both me and my dad.
I first heard this song when I was 17 and I didn't really get the part about life going by so fast... now I'm 30 and I start to understand
LOL. Wait 'til you're 50+ ...
TFW You're 34 and come back to this song.
@Atman Gotango 63 and I am laughing my ass off.
@Atman Gotango here i am at 27 hearing this song for the first time feeling like i'm 30 and the walls are closing in
There’s still time Live it Explore it Crush it Now cause tomorrow’s not guaranteed
1) This song never gets old
2) it always cheers me up
This definitely is one of those thar never gets old, will always be a classic, always more relevant as time Flys right on by. Never fails to cheer me up the shorter it gets
3) It also always chokes me up. 44yo is a bitch
It actually gets better with age. Something very unique. A true masterpiece.
I agree with this
I can't believe that nobody is talking about Guitar Hero! 😂 This is my favorite song from the game ❤
that game is fuckin dead, dude
Guitar Hero brought me here.. 🎸
@@el6tomejorcritico666 I'm sure that it's still more alive than you!
@@el6tomejorcritico666 Nah
I. Love. Social D. Everything about Mike Ness's musical approach screams integrity.
I’m so sad about Mike Ness diagnosis and the tour is post poned- I was looking forward to seeing them in August. Hoping his health improves. ❤
When you was a kid, you think this is an enjoyable song. But when you getting older, you realize that the entire lyrics is the actual "story of my life".
that doesn't make any less enjoyable.
Im 67 and "still listening".....you're spot on........ it's the story of alot of people's lives.
@ooOmegAaa Or the entry level jobs asking for a bachelor's degree that don't pay enough to pay off a student loan.
I once witnessed a Walmart manager directing at least 8 workers in chanting and clapping like they did in evangelical Christian school, so I knew the company wasn't on an even footing.
It wasn't a surprise when I found that Walmart was so fucking lazy that employees had to subsidize the company by going to a bulletin board to seek out welfare programs.
Walmart paid shit per hour and expected employees to spend break time searching their bulletin board for local subsidies.
Maybe the heirs of a wealthy person can literally drag the deceased from Heaven to Hell just because they left money and power to children that weren't taught.
Rest wherever Sam Walton, but your kids didn't carry on what your businesses were built on. I don't think $15 an hour is enough to get you out.
Loved this way 16 back in '94.....and listening to this now sounds so bittersweet and is really hittin me hard. Everything's all changed, as well as there is next to no one from my old high school days. Most every single Brother from back in the day are all dead now. This song really hits me hard these days. This is The Story of my Life.
it's the story of many lives out there... a lot of people go through that phase... life gets dull and then you start to reminisce. but we have to remember to go out of our way to do the things we like as well as those we gotta do.
I first heard these guys in high school. I'm 49 now and still listening.
I was raised on Social D and punk rock and here I am at 29
33 and I wanna go KMS for clicking on this video...soml
22 My guy, stay young while you can.
@@bentoboxtsu ive been old for longer than i was young. I was old when i was 15
i'm 14, but i heard that so much in 2009 (sorry my english is bad)
You can only fully understand this song when it's too late
U said it 👍🫣
So true
Not true
Real
FR
one of the last classic American punk bands.. greetings from Brazil
Can't get anymore real than this. This is music for the ordinary guy who has to deal with changes, struggle and life in general. Autobiographical in a way or perhaps just an anthem for the working class. Totally contrary to the pretentious crap being released from contemporary rock acts.
Two words:
Titus Andronicus
"This silly schoolboy crush wasn't just pretend." Thanks, Mike. For EVERYTHING, ALWAYS and FOREVER. You are one of my many musical and lyrical heroes (die-hard Social D fan since 1991).
Saw Social Distortion perform in Chicago quite a while ago. I was in the front row right in front of Mike Ness playin’ with an energy that totally penetrated every fiber of my being. They’re a great band to see live! 🎶
This song holds a truth that deepens each day.
We are all taught to conform. Live your dream.
Damn....so very true.
Who knew Colossus had such a wonderful singing voice.
Thank you for this comment.
I'm far too old to have been the target audience for this piece. But as a extremely hardcore, dyed-in-the-wool old school rock 'n' roller I have to love stuff like this. REAL musicians playing REAL music on REAL instruments. The only real way to go. Bravo!
this song came out in 1990. How old are you?
Glad to see you here, if you’re enjoying this, you’re not too old for it! Keep rocking!
How can we thank Social D enough? Bravo forever to you all!!! 🫶
Was never really a fan fan until I caught them live by chance. Still one of the best live acts I’ve ever seen.
Mike Ness is the real deal.
@@dspf68 abso fuckin lutly ! He said when he was 10 years old he knew he was gonna be a rock star. Unfortunately he needed to go thru terrible fuckin heroin addiction to write real songs
Like this. Im so glad he was able to get clean.
Same here!
Other side of the coin for me. I liked them since high school and finally saw them live much later. Mike Ness really put me off and made me not like the band. I still listen to this song though because I really relate
The lyrics is so carefree and simple. You can hardly find any song like this one nowadays. Why do current pop songs have to be about love and relationship all the time?
ruclips.net/video/JcmylxQ0ma4/видео.html
The answer to your question is here.
47 years old now and this song brings me back to parties in our back yard off campus of OSU with Blatant Finger covering this song, so many skate boards, and bmx guys with no fear. We’re older now, but the adrenaline of those days always lives on....
I've been listening to these guys for 30 years. Absolutely phenomenal from the first time I've heard it to the 10,000 time.
2020, 65 years old and this song still moves me!
That's not a bad thing. Good for you, man.
Thats not a bad thing , sounds like you like good music! ENJOY!
Story of my life
Well, high school seemed like such a blur
I didn't have much interest in sports or school elections
And in class I dreamed all day
About a rock 'n' roll weekend
And the girl in the front of the room
So close yet so far, you know she never seemed to notice
That this silly school-boy crush wasn't just pretend
Life goes by so fast
You only want to do what you think is right
Close your eyes and then it's past
Story of my life
Story of my life
Story of my life
The story of my life
And I went down to my old neighborhood
The faces have all changed, there's no one there left to talk to
And the pool hall I loved as a kid
Is now a Seven Eleven
And I went downtown to look for a job
I had no training, no experience to speak of
And I looked at the holes in my jeans
And turned and headed back
Life goes by so fast
You only wanna do what you think is right
Close your eyes and it's past
Story of my life
Story of my life
Story of my life
Story of my life
And good times come and good times go
I only wish the good times would last a little longer
And I think about the good times we had
And why they had to end
So I sit at the edge of my bed
I strum my guitar and I sing an outlaw love song
Thinkin' 'bout what you're doin' now
And when you're comin' back
Life goes by so fast
You only wanna do what you think is right
Close your eyes and it's past
Story of my life
Story of my life
Story of my life
Story of my life
Story of my life
The story of my life
1rst verse literally me ,wasted my time dreamin when i could just act and have that crush with me atleast while school lasted ,time flied so fast i missed my chance
Thanks so much for the full lyrics. I'm trying to learn to sing this song. Hopefully I can get my voice low enough!
"The pool hall I loved as a kid is now a 7-11." Great line, it hits home.
One of my favorite songs from guitar hero along with Cult of Personality and Even Flow. Probably helped form my love of rock music from an early age.
That’s how I know this song as well.
I can't believe that they were on guitar hero
I think that's what guitar hero was meant to do keep these old rock songs relevant and known.
I was looking for the Guitar Hero comment, I thought I was alone here 😅
If you ever get the chance to see these cats play, in person, you will not be disappointed. Amazing band. Seen them twice in Dallas. Outstanding!
THIS Saturday Phlash !! , RIGHT HERE IN Seattle , Washington !! CAN'T WAIT !! 😆 😉 👍 👌 ✌ 👊 🎸 🔊 🎤 🎶 🎼
Yes i agree lucky enough to have seen them in concert ! Seen the Clash have to say Social D .would give them a run for their money!! Great band no bullshit full on !!

Aí sim em, meu camarada!
cheap attempt to get likes.
I turn 31 this year. Love this song and always have ❤ hope t0 see them soon! My parents gave me good musical taste.
Legit one of the Greatest Bands of all time. Their music is timeless and amazing!!!
I'm 67 & and STILL listening............
hope i get there, 37 now
@@NoTraicionesYOu will. Please?
Who else remembers Mike Ness riding around Orange County, California, on his motorcycle? He always wore a helmet, but the sleeveless t-shirts & tattoos gave him away. Nice guy... he always waved back. ☺
TheDrummingKangaroo With a soy latte in hand?
not such a nice guy. He just jumped on a fan and punched him in the face a bunch of times while his fans held the guy down. Mike Ness is really nice.... as long as you aren't a Trump supporter.
@@MicahMicahel don't get me wrong I think mike was in the wrong but it wasn't because he was a trump supporter its because he was flipping him off like I said mike should have not done that though
@@johnacuna3221 I can't believe almost 60 year old Mike Ness attacks people that offend him. Ness was promoting leftist politics. Barbara SAteisand does the same thing. Some people believe a show should not be political. Did Mike Ness always give political lectures? If so, the guy is wrong. I would expect Jello Biafra to maybe give a leftist speech, for instance.
He could've said, "hey there sticking your finger up. I hear you. I think you are wrong. Who here agrees with me?" The fans would cheer and the guy would feel out of place. Instead he reacts. Over 800 people have been assaulted for wearing MAGA hats. I'm not even right wing but I see the modern left as sociopathic.
this is full on Trump derangement syndrome. He probably believes all the fake news. In reality Obama deported more people an Trump. Trump is to the left of George W. Bush. He's to the left of Clinton. The Global media hate Trump because he's a U.S. nationalist. People should cool down.
I have to constantly forgive all these musicians and media figures with Trump derangement syndrome. Actors especially. They put themselves into elite culture and agree with everything they say.
I have to forgive them because I would have to stop watching movies or music. Rich performers are so vapid when they talk politics.
@@MicahMicahel i do see what your saying I am a right wing but even i know if I go to a punk concert leftists statements are made so i keep my mouth shut because I know most punks are liberals but I do agree mike was wrong for what he did
My gen X son turned me on to Social Distortion with this song. he played guitar in a tribute band called Social Distruction. IDK if it’s hard rock, punk, or whatever, but at 73 i like it Good solid band
lol I like how everyone remembers this from GH3, I remember when I heard it on the radio, thanks for making me feel old guys.
No problem man xD
lol from 90s to 08 lol
You are not old, just more musically experienced.
Fuck it. I saw all the cool bands.
wtf is gh3
My first concert was seeing Social Distortion back in 2015. I was like 18, and I got tickets for my birthday. Went with my dad, and man did we just have a blast. Love these guys so much.
My first concert was one of theirs in like 2009-2010? I was about 7-8. My dad had me on his shoulders and he was dancing arounds and poured his beer on a lady, it was quite funny actually
They were my first concert too!!!! 1986
I took my teenage son to Social D a week ago in Anaheim CA. What a great show. I will remember it forever.
Good ol’ song never gets old! Well done fellas, obviously it’ll go down in history & be played by many generations! Cheers Boys 🍻
Remember back when this album dropped.
Still have my ticket stub from the Cubby Bear show from 1988. I am an old fart.
Guitar hero 3, brings back memories
kick ass song from a still underrated punk band. Perfect blend of punk, classic rock, and even a sprinkle of melodic pop
Don’t forget rockabilly!!!
I don't know that I'd call this punk.
Then you are too young to remember when it came out :)
Dubz42o this album was released three years before I was born. I have no idea what that one guy’s talking about.
@Written In Red Dreams Why tho?
I saw Social Distortion live last night and I was just blown away…like their mixture of punk and blues and the kind of punk folk hero vibe I got…changed my life
First heard these guys playing the quad at Cal Fullerton back in 1990. Can’t believe that’s more than 30 years ago now.
I remember coming across this video when I was 12 years old, thinking it was a pretty decent song. 3 concerts and 8 years later, I'm proud to say I'm 20 years old and consider Social Distortion to be the world's best punk band of all time. I have gone on stage with them twice, met Mike Ness and the whole band, gotten the drummer's drumsticks, hugged Mike twice and got his guitar pick. I'll never forget the impact Social Distortion has had on my life. They not only helped me get through my bullied years of middle school, but introduced me to so much more music that shined a light on my world. I can't believe I'm about to turn 21 and I barely hit puberty when I fell in love with this band. I'm so thankful for these guys to be a part of my life, forever and always I'll never forget them. Thank you Mike Ness especially!
Glad I'm enjoying my youth while I still have it. My kids aren't going to believe how much of a blast I had
Great track, great band, these boys have been there for me in bad times, just been back to my old stomping ground, all changed now, this song resonates more, the older you get..
I turn 62 on April 4, one day after Mike. Born in Fullerton and been listening to Social Distortion since the beginning. Have never seen them live, but will this coming April 12. After Mike’s bout with cancer, I figured I better see him while both of us are still above ground. And I will be bringing my wife who turns 77 same day that Mike turns 62. Us fragile folks will be in the back.
God bless you and your wife. I hope you have a rocking time. You both deserve it.
@@ryanhosey3855 with the obvious age difference, I exposed my wife to punk rock. She grew to like Social Distortion for Mike’s passion for country while incorporating his own style and lyrics. For sure this is not bubble gum pop of Taylor Swift.
@stephenmras8519 you seem like a good dude, man. I'm so glad the music can build bridges. That's really beautiful. Keep it rocking. Keep it punk. My best to you and yours.
Interestingly, my life momentarily crossed paths with Mike’s in those early days. After school one day, I went with a friend to “the dark hole”. He was rhythm guitarist with the Adolescents. I was a good student and quickly realized this was probably not a crowd I would hang with. I ended up becoming a banker, fat and rich, as Mike would say. All that said, Mike has mellowed with age, as have all of us. Even his music has mellowed and it has become much more melodic. I think that is why Social Distortion enjoys a much broader appeal than pure hard core punk rock.
Very few songs rank on my top list of all time,this is one of them,enough said
If you're awake. You'll love this song. We're all a bunch of fuck ups. But that's why we gotta be nice to each other. Support. Peace love and rock n roll
That's a wonderful attitude :)
Unfortunately human nature doesn't work that way, but your naivety is endearing :)
@@devilsoffspring5519 so what's the true human nature then? Since you seem to be enlightened calling others naive
Love, brother.
I heard this song playing in Walmart recently. Times sure have changed.
Sadly it's probably played on the 'Oldies' station on the radio.
Agh, shoot me…
I felt the same when I heard Blondie's "Atomic" in the supermarket.
And the pool hall I loved as a kid is now a 7-11. When the aliens arrive and ask what rock n roll is, here you go
Real music from the heart never gets old! Rock 'n Roll. It's not just something we do, it's our way of life. 🔥🎸
Damn. This is one of those songs that you hear for the first time in a while and listen to it three times in a row full blast!!
The most underrated band of all time... Machine gun blues should have won Grammys
such a perfect song and the meaning keeps changing every year
Well, this specific tune is VERY “ Rock-A-Billy”, like some great stuff in the 80’s 👍.
Guitar hero III still have you in my heart with that wonderful childhood the PS2 gave us
I was in my hometown today and visited my old neighborhood. Saw the houses where my friends used to live, then went to the apartment complex where we would hang out at the pool. The payphone wasn't there and the vending machine is gone. There were new stores built up around the roads around it. So strange and yet I remember when I was there as a 13-year-old discovering new music, getting high, and drinking.
You are no.1 in post-punk band (and old- school band). I was 54years old and love that song...
First record I ever bought,in 1986 at the age of 14 at the la Mirada swap meet. Changed my life forever,best music ever made.
Just hearing this song takes me back to driving my 1st car and jamming all my mix tapes.
I remember seeing Social Distortion play at parties in La Habra, Cali. back in the day, this is still one of my favorite songs! And the best band to come from orange county California!
I used to live in LaHabra, was born in Garden Grove in 73'
OC 👌🏼
+kaiser soze To be completely honest with you, I don't remember what anyone else looked like, but I know I was there sporting my mohawk, yes, a mohawk, what fun times those were! Have a great day! Peace! ✌
+kaiser soze La Habra is quite the opposite from skin heads lol majority of people have Spanish heritage, but I do know they liked punk a lot back then
good times before everything went woke in Los Angeles 😡😡
Adorava tocar essa no Guitar Hero kkk nostalgia 🤩
Ufa, finalmente alguém comentando sobre o Guitar Hero, uma brasileira ainda! Kkkkkkkkkkkkk
Social Distortion patrimonio de la humanidad
Time goes by so fast .....
No shit.
Yesterday i was an 18 US Navy recruit.
Woke up today a 50 year old broken down shell of my former self.
Shit, life really does go by that fast. Feels like just yesterday I was a teenager playing guitar hero with my friends in an attic, riding my dirtbike down my home street and eating asphalt off of a makeshift ramp. And even though it feels that way, every step into the future is a step away from those memories.
The things I'd do to have those years back...
This song reminds me of people I know who just glided through life without taking a stand for much or committing to any particular craft, and ten years later found themselves without any skills beyond recapping yesterday.
(I'm sure the people who this song speaks to weren't like that, but that's the feels I get from this. Great tune either way)
This was the first album that introduced me to Social D. I was probably 16. I am 48 and still love these guys.
I'm 47, and I get it.
Me too! I been loving some Social D since 16.....'93. 45 now and these seriously my fav songs of all time! Also so Bittersweet watching this and thinking about my life, same as you. We sure been through our share of Heaven and Hell my Brother
63 years old and I love me some social distor5
Some bands you discover on your own by accident. Glad this was one of them🤘🏼
Discovered this song in 2002 during my senior year of high school. I always felt this song would be awesome to play in the background of a late 90s or early 2000s teen movie during the opening credits/introduction scene.
The best rock songs I have discovered were played at the end of movies. Soundtracks done right.
Dude. Same. Born in 84, grad 2002. Cheers bro. Stuff is gold man
They did, in the opening credits of Orange County! It came out in 2002, just before I turned 17 and out of all the teen movies of that golden era, that’s the one I really related to and still go back to 20 years later. One of the best ensemble casts EVER, by the way.
Wishing you the best recovery Mike!
Guitar hero 3 got me hooked on punk rock, as did many games of the early 2000's. Now I reminisce about the time I spent playing ps2 games in the confines of my childhood bedroom. I miss the early 2000's with its mainstream punk rock, X games, "Jack ass," and game companies releasing heavy hitters left and right. The 2000's felt more akin to the the 90's and late 80's, where as the 2020s and 2010s feel nothing alike. Life really does move by fast.
Are you punk or country?
Social distortion: yes
Hahaha thats a good one dude
Cuntry
Hehe
Gg allin- carnival of excess
I believe the genre is called "Cowpunk"
Everclear falls into this category, but just barely.
This song only gets better the older I get. Time goes way to fast so enjoy it each passing day. .. that's the story of my Life ❤️
Social D is the SHIT!!!!! These guys made a bunch of great songs!!!! It's like the best medicine for the depressed!!😊😊😊😊
Went to see Social D back in the day at the Hard Rock, LV. My car broke down about half way, but I wasn't missing the concert. Got a truck and car trailer and towed my @$% to Vegas. Mike Ness canceled the concert. I couldn't believe it. My brother (god rest his soul) and his friend (Jared) used the tickets the next week for the rescheduled concert and i got a t shirt. Verrrrrrrrrrrry expensive concert that i didn't even get to go to. Still love my Social D though... 🥰😍😘
Sitting here rocking my 1990 Ball and Chain tour shirt.
Never stop.
My dad took me to a concert of them a few years ago, when I was 6 or 7 my dad used to drive me to wrestling tournaments while we listend to these songs in the car. In a way, these songs made up my childhood even though I was a few years off. Thanks dad.
my dad went to one of their concerts when i was probably 6 or 7 and ever since then it was in his playlist then in mine
Black sabbath ❤
@@mathmartiins You know it
I met the lead singer at an MMA gym. Dude is super down to earth, I honestly never knew who he was untill someone else pointed it out. Im sure he'd think it was rad as fuck that your dad shared his music with you
thanks Dad, love all, big
Love this song! I think I heard it for the first time like 15 years ago. Today it makes me remember University and youth. Life going by so fast... Long live to Social Distortion
I used to know this girl in high school that was a big social distortion fan. She was super chill and a friend. Whenever I listen to social I think of her.
Used to have this Album when I was in the Navy.
+Wild N' Country Buy again
+WILD N' Country What a great album to have.
That you for severing our country
Sick!!! I'm 52 now an sing this anthem top of my lungs just like Mike. Takes me back to an amazing life. Thank you for making such crazy music😀
Remember this song from guitar hero 3 , played it all the time , great song 🎵
We all agree,,,,,Social D songs stand the test of time and the meansings continue to evolve throughout our lives. I'm 61 and still listen to feel young again : ). Mike is stil the Man!
The drummer is from one of the cities by mine. His Mom was a sweet lady that owned a great antique store. One day, we went in and it was covered everywhere with her son's band social distortion's posters, etc. The store has been closed for at least 4 years now. I hope all is well. She was sure proud of her son! Brandon Flowers lead singer of The Killers grew up about 45 minutes from me. A town in the Mountains called Manti, Utah. I have never been there. It is historical....and I haven't seen it!!!
Fullerton
@@phillippettit2138 So, the guy who replaced one of the drummers was named Chris Reece. He went to Payson high in Payson Utah. I live next to Salt Lake County in a city named Lehi. 40 miles South is the opposite side of Utah County and that is where Payson is located. About 5 minutes from Provo, Utah. If you get on I-15 in Payson and stay on it, you will go thru some more Utah cities and small towns. Then a corner of Arizona. Then thru Nevada. Las Vegas is a nice stop. Keep going 5 more hours and you will be in L.A. We usually stay at the big Marriott in L.A. or we go to Orange County and stay at the smaller Marriott hotels very close to the storage units that Leo fender started building his amps and guitars in a lovely city called....."FULLERTON"!!! I didn't know Social Distortion was from Fullerton. That is cool. It has been many years since we would go to that sweet ladies antique store. She was so proud of her son and the band. She never got to see him because the busy life of fame! Most people automatically think: Utah....the OSMONDS. Haha. My parents were friends with Alan and his wife. Anyway, Thank you for sharing that. Next time I am there I will watch for a concert. The whole neighborhoods power went out here! That sucks.....I am going to get the candles going. I was just about to read! Dang it!!!! Lisa
@@LH3plus2 So They played in my friends backyard in "82"
Was a big part of my teens and still is 🤝
Great story teller you are
@@LH3plus2 check out
"Another State of Mind"
Whoever did the bass in this is a genius.
Then bands we know know and love have perfected it. Gaslight anthem. I grew up with SD and still love them.
Looking forward to the concert this Friday, Denver, Colorado
