This band could’ve been HUGE like how bands like Foo Fighters, Matchbox Twenty or Everclear if Jenkins hadn’t gotten greedy and listened to the scam executives at Elektra records. Jenkins even formed a Incorporation called Third Eye Blind Inc and made sure Kevin Cadogan didn’t get any of the royalties and shares of the albums he co-wrote and co-produced instead he fired Cadogan and kicked his ass to the curb. Jenkins at one point I had the most upmost respect for as a musician but when I did my research to what he did to Cadogan in Nov 2000 and Salazar in 2009 or 2010 he deserves to shamed
The dude is a huge scumbag. 3EB now is currently a shitty cover band and a shell of what they were. Kevin and Arion were and are the heart and soul of that band. It’s really a bitter sweet thing listening to 3EB because the original music is so amazing but it’s also sad to think about what happened.
Sounds like the producer for this album, Eric Valentine, was the one who made them so successful. He went on to produce hit after hit, but 3EB was unable to keep it going after he left. Seems like he was the real talent.
This is why i also love the year 1997. The best band of 1997. anthem to summer '97 this guy is tweaking in every performance The best band of 1997. anthem to summer '97 this guy is tweaking in every performance The best band of 1997.
For some reason it seems Stephan never ages but every time Kevin put sunglasses on around this era he looked 45 rather than 25. He’s not wearing them here though and he looks 16, even though he was only 25 here. I’m so confused
Yeah I think Kevin is now mid 50’s approaching 60’s yeah he’s getting old but watching him play that album from start to finish in his NEW band XEB with 2 other founding members of Third Eye Blind Tony Fredianelli and Arion Salazar it’s like he’s a God on guitar playing those great songs from the debut album
One of the best debut albums of all time
LOL. Pump the breaks there, Skippy.
Fact.
@@norwegianblue2764 name another best debut album asshole. Do not say Sublime Sublime, either.
@@norwegianblue2764 this whole album was fucking perfect. Who produced it?

robert davis yes!
Great power pop. One of the best songs of the decade
Impossible not to feel energetic and happy while listening to this song... This band should have so much more success
It's true, but the lyrics are sad!
I’ve had people not believe me when I tell them this song is about a methamphetamine addiction😆
It's literally in the lyrics..
Also, theres the song Slow Motion that's obvious
Damn this is so good

So true. Have you watched XEB concerts. It's amazing but heartbreaking. What could have been

His performances today are a far cry from the tweak days
That was badass
Funny how they edit out "down " but not everything else
There's something I like about the blurred line and the interference.
VHS comforts!
So many lame comments here... 3eb and Stephan Jenkins like it or not are Legends of music.
The lame comments are about how jenkins ruined everything and how good the rest of the band was
3eb. Where grunge meets Backstreet. Inimitable.
Wtf with the comments. Am I trippin balls?
how the hell did you get a video that is over 2 decades old and posted it on 2018????????

He’s actually 32 in this since he’s born in 64

@@arson5991 Where'd you get 64 from? His wikipedia page says 1970 (we're talking about Kevin btw)
@@bossman-jk9tl exactly, Stephen was born in 74, Kevin was born in 70
Then watch him now. Kevin super old now but still amassing
I stole that CD from BMG
The original players were by far the best, Kryz Reid is a nice addition, though
Hey it’s the crystal meth song.
It's about life and NOT being fulfilled!!
this guy is tweaking in every performance
In one he was literally drinking from a wine bottle
Great songs but the lead singer could never deliver live
Ikr he really can’t hit the notes live
Live is fine - studio is when it COUNTS !
You ain’t wrong, but this song is so fuckin hard to sing from start to finish. The sheer amount of lyrics and melody in this song is fucking insane.
