I went to me and my ex wife’s first apartment to pick up our sons for weekend. Played this on the way back, felt such a sad sentimental feeling. Life folks, we just carry on best we can
I remember my old apartments; I've had several in my life but the ones that I remember the most were places I always called home. Home is where the heart is!!!
excellent real canadiana here. love this song and band !! brings back great memories of ppl noddin to this tune on muchmusic and muchmore and the airwaves.
To me this is one of their best songs. Or rather just one of the best songs ever written Especially Canadiana . I Love this song And it reminds me of Our House.
This song reminds me of my boyfriend and I in the 80s. Five years... Add cocaine and alcohol and we f'd things up...a good love deep down. Best friends. I left and moved 2000 miles away and married another. 30 years later we're both divorced and found each other again. He's still in CA and I'm still in TX but we're making it work. It is challenging without daily physical touching. When he asks, I will return to him permanently. No doubt but no cocaine or alcohol anymore. We're done with the wild partying. It's a true and loving relationship.❤
I love this song! Reminds me of when I lived downtown Kingston. Our land lord was such a goof we released a pregnant rat with a male one of course! A big bowl of food and water too! THIS IS WHERE WE USED TO LIVE LOL!
Right? This song has STRONG domestic violence vibes. Broken glass, broken bones, holes punched in the wall, breaking in, ripping the phone out of the wall. And, he's with another woman now..."SHE loves me and HER body keeps me warm, I'M happy here." Then, "this is where WE used to live " SHE is the current woman, "WE" is the man and the woman he lived in the apartment with. I used to hear this as a nostalgic song, in the 90's. Now I can't unhear the violence.
i know i wasn't alive back then but ive seen so many movies from the 90's i know i wasn't born back then but it's still giving me a nostalgic feeling ┐( ˘_˘)┌
Broke into the old apartment This is where we used to live Broken glass, broke and hungry Broken hearts and broken bones This is where we used to live Why did you paint the walls? Why did you clean the floor? Why did you plaster over The hole I punched in the door? This is where we used to live Why did you keep the mousetrap? Why didn't you keep the dish rack? These things used to be mine I guess they still are, I want them back Broke into the old apartment Forty-two stairs from the street Crooked landing, crooked landlord Narrow lane way filled with crooks This is where we used to live Why did they pave the lawn? Why did they change the lock? Why did I have to break it I only came here to talk This is where we used to live How is the neighbor downstairs? How is her temper this year? I turned up your TV And stomped on the floor just for fun I know we don't live here anymore We bought an old house on the Danforth She loves me and her body keeps me warm, I'm happy here But this is where we used to live Broke into the old apartment Tore the phone out of the wall Only memories, fading memories Blending into dull tableaux I want them back I want them back (This is where we used to live) I want them back (This is where we used to live) I want them back (This is where we used to live) I want them back Source: LyricFind Where we used to live, house of lies.
Canada! We really did Steven Page dirty with a small cocaine possession charge. BNL were our sound track growing up, but we were so idealistic back then. Steven I'm sorry.

I'm playing this in my empty townhome 07/21/20. Just loaded up the last box. Wow this hit me hard.
good luck with your move! You got this!
Every time I moved I listened to this. 10 years worth of moves and memories
Hope the New Year brings you clearer skies!
Listing 2-14-2021
Played it on my way out today 05/05/21. Hope your new spot is working out.
Underrated band.
Not in Canada they aren't lol
Can't get enough of this... Favorite since I was little
Reminds me of some better timers as well as some some emotional scars. Brought me to tears.
Best time of my life....being a teenager in the 90s was so special..wish i realized that before it was over...but damn i was soooo lucky
Sooo trueee.. I'm so glad I grew up in the 90s

excellent real canadiana here. love this song and band !! brings back great memories of ppl noddin to this tune on muchmusic and muchmore and the airwaves.
This is such a relatable song!! In so many ways.
I still have a key to my old place.
“Why did I have brake it?? I only came here to talk”!!
Hits hard!!
Filmed May 5 1996
Such a great song. BNL have a sound unlike any other!!!
Love this song it was on 90210 Beverly hills
haunting memories of a long ago love, now apart and living our own lives, happy, still miss the old days though...
I agree but I try to move on with lobe
Lol dang auto correct I meant love

To me this is one of their best songs. Or rather just one of the best songs ever written Especially Canadiana .
I Love this song And it reminds me of Our House.
This is a banger
Still gets me to this day

Courtney KB
Still a favorite of mine.
Trust me .... Never go back.
Totally awesome band!!!!!
Love the bass.
heard this song for the 1st time today..... got my hopes up.... thought they came back. fn love the BNL
good old indie rock from the 90s. I came here after Bevery Hills 90210 "Spring Breakdown" where they did perform
Notwhorosethinks brought me here.
Thanks man!
broke and hungry. looking back it seems like it was fun
More than you can imagine
I definitely like good memories over bad ones, but goddamn the bad ones hit so much harder
Freaking love this tune.
Just great music
🥰 Why did 'you' have to break up....🎶 💔🎶
❤🎼 🎸 ♬ 🥁🎤 ❤
👍Such a great band! ❤ I want 'them' back..❣

97.7 in Atlanta play this song all the time.
great tune
wish i could break into the old 1990s
Gawd, me too! Best decade, evah
60’s,70’s and then the 80’s
finally the proper version !
THIS IS WHERE WE USED TO LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Because this was probably the version on the installation of Mac OS 8 in 97, so in that sense, its official! ;-)
one the best song and realistic
genious... u guys keep rockin!
Went by the old apartment last night
2022 still love ❤️
"why did I have to break in, I only came here to talk" said the stalker during sentencing.
Right? This song has STRONG domestic violence vibes.
Broken glass, broken bones, holes punched in the wall, breaking in, ripping the phone out of the wall.
And, he's with another woman now..."SHE loves me and HER body keeps me warm, I'M happy here."
Then, "this is where WE used to live "
SHE is the current woman, "WE" is the man and the woman he lived in the apartment with.
I used to hear this as a nostalgic song, in the 90's. Now I can't unhear the violence.
Under rated song.
15 yrs old but this is giving me 90s vibes
Peak 1990s (even though you weren't alive).
How can you get 90s vibes from it? You weren’t alive. That makes as much sense as this song.
i know i wasn't alive back then but ive seen so many movies from the 90's i know i wasn't born back then but it's still giving me a nostalgic feeling ┐( ˘_˘)┌
This is where we used to live... and it all started with a Big Bang... HEY!
Such a classic. Mmmmm
MY FAVORITE BNL SONG!
MUSICALLY & LYRICALLY!
SO MEANINGFUL!
AWESOME SONG!
(But they mention broken bones. This rib ain't broken!)
Reminds me of my first love Katie yochum. I'll always love you
This song is almost 25 yrs old.
here after the big bang theory 😭😭😭😭
😭💙💙
Thinking about my ex drummer and the rat hole we used to live in. I miss it sometimes.
Ever notice that not many people cover or parody Barenaked Ladies songs? No why? 'Cause you don't mess with perfection
Finn Kobler uh, no because most of their songs were parodies or jokey songs to begin with.
Good memories
Why is this video not available on the official/label channel?
Steven Page is awesome xoxo 😘💕
Getting ready to move out it hit hard but I’m without him
Rode by and saw my old apartment that I stayed in 1996.
First time hearing this.ithinkiwrotethis!!(I'm joking)u didnt take th dishrack. I took some of his favorite t-shirts. Heehee!!
Can anyone shoot me a link, can't find this song ANYWHERE!!
Broke into the old apartment
This is where we used to live
Broken glass, broke and hungry
Broken hearts and broken bones
This is where we used to live
Why did you paint the walls?
Why did you clean the floor?
Why did you plaster over
The hole I punched in the door?
This is where we used to live
Why did you keep the mousetrap?
Why didn't you keep the dish rack?
These things used to be mine
I guess they still are, I want them back
Broke into the old apartment
Forty-two stairs from the street
Crooked landing, crooked landlord
Narrow lane way filled with crooks
This is where we used to live
Why did they pave the lawn?
Why did they change the lock?
Why did I have to break it
I only came here to talk
This is where we used to live
How is the neighbor downstairs?
How is her temper this year?
I turned up your TV
And stomped on the floor just for fun
I know we don't live here anymore
We bought an old house on the Danforth
She loves me and her body keeps me warm, I'm happy here
But this is where we used to live
Broke into the old apartment
Tore the phone out of the wall
Only memories, fading memories
Blending into dull tableaux
I want them back
I want them back (This is where we used to live)
I want them back (This is where we used to live)
I want them back (This is where we used to live)
I want them back

Where we used to live, house of lies.
Canadian Band too.
matcraizy not bad eh
ITS CALLED HOME!!!!!
I have a powerful urge to watch Reality Bites now!
I Miss You Debra Sue
Crooked landing
Crooked landlord
Narrow laneway filled with crooks.
I've experienced this. Have you?
Yes
Why the HELL dose thees Canadian Bands videos never reach over a million views !?
matcraizy Sad thing is probably the only one that does. Although I could be wrong. Rush probably does too.
Love this band to the moon and back. Live in NY. Seen them twice
281k views? That's it?
THE DANFORTH IS SOLD OUT.
Not the same without their iconic lead singer. Damn, that voice tho.
🤘
No broken bones... my hymen is intact... my favorite BNL song.
This song is on the Mac OS 8 disc
I'm here, because I listen to it, when I was 13 in 1995.
Whoa I was 13 in 1995 and also listened to this song back then ... did you enjoy some Toad the Wet Sprocket as well as Gin Blossoms ?
@@saikonixamastein2431 yup sure do
looks like Gary Lightbody 2:07
I promised my kids If we moved back into the house I would change the locks.
Possibly the Gratest
Yeah, my landlord has no idea. My name is inscribed in the concrete out front. Why did they change the lock?
You can't find the song? Try buying it. Lol.
dead. memories.
Story of my life
Funny thing is I didn't know silly one cheers.
Of course when they took a ax to the walls I was afraid 😮
Canada! We really did Steven Page dirty with a small cocaine possession charge. BNL were our sound track growing up, but we were so idealistic back then. Steven I'm sorry.
Gen X anthem
I wonder how many ppl do that .I've thought about it
Gen z be like, “tore the phone out of the wall??”
I remember my friend Buddy makes me laugh
