I actually remember where I was when I heard All Star for the first time- I was 10 years old and the radio dj said they had the new one by Smash Mouth and when I heard it I was floored. I really loved that song (and record) and I'm really thankful we had music like this during our formative years. Poor kids these days will have to remember the first time they heard Cardi B WAP or something.
Thought this was pretty cool til he namedropped his new band and I realized he's the one who got kicked out of Smash Mouth for being antivax, lol.

He left Smash Mouth at around 2008-2010, but he’s made some stuff with them here and there since then. Greg and Smash Mouth are still on good terms. He never got kicked out lol

It is ok for a guy to drop a plug in an interview and also to have his own opinions on what to put in his body when things are mandated that are not fully understood. Sorry you disagree with that notion.

@@dingleberryfresh My reply got taken down. I said that Greg didn’t even get kicked out, he left on his own back in 2008, way before the COVID vaccine. He and the band are on good terms to this day. I went to a show last year, and Greg was there. Bro didn’t even get his facts right 💀

By the way, Greg Camp is a primary songwriter and has ownership in the band and its name and did not get kicked out of shit. You need to do your research and learn how the music business works before you run your fat mouth.

@@stevenjeandetroit M'kay, Mike Love owns the Beach Boys name and he wrote some half-decent songs too, doesn't change the fact that he woke up one day and decided to be a shithead. Mike's antivax too, why don't they give him a ring? Then they can all cough on eachother until they asphyxiate. Sounds like a win-win-win scenario to me!
