God I love this song. Heck I love the whole catalog. Catchy tunes and fairly light but still thoughtful lyrics about often serious subjects. "Late at night she knocks on my door, drunk again and lookin' to score. Now I know I should say no but it's kinda hard when when she's ready to go." --Self Esteem

I like that you point out The Offspring’s versatility between songs, as “Pretty Fly”, “The Kids Aren’t Alright”, and “Why Don’t You Get A Job?” are all on the same album, 1998’s “Americana”. I also highly recommend “Hammerhead”, “Come Out and Play”, and “Gone Away”, as they are some of their strongest songs both musically and lyrically.

@@underthetrees4780 I was gonna make that same comment. There aren't a lot of albums throughout time where you can just press play on song one and let it rock from there. Every single song is great. Only a few artists have pulled that off and the ones who have only did it once. It's quite a feat.

Come Out and Play. You’ll know this as the song that goes, “you gotta keep em separated”

Yes, that is Universal studios. They walked across the town square from Back To The Future and many other movies and tv shows at one point in the video. More Offspring: - All I Want - I Choose - Self-Esteem - Come Out and Play - Original Prankster

This song is a Ska number, most notable one that sounds very similar to The Beatles' Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da

@Maeshalanadae

They use the xylophone from Ob-La-Di, so yeah.

Jamel, McG, who directed this video along with "Pretty Fly for a White Guy," did a lot of good videos in the late 90s before he became a movie director (such as "Charlie's Angels" back in 2000). Fun fact: Carmit Bachir played the woman who gets fed up with her boyfriend near the end of the video. She was one of the Pussycat Dolls. You may also recognize Bob Eubanks in the Newlywed Game parody in the middle.

I remember the first time I heard this song, and I was already in my 40s. "My friend has a girlfriend and he hates that...." BAM! Oh this is going to be hilarious. And then when the instruments chime in.... BAM #2! OMG this is a riff on the Beatles Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da. These guys work well on so many levels.

Listen to Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da by the Beatles, you'll hear where The Offspring got the melody chorus for this song.

You are dead right, both awesome songs!!

Great punkers with high energy and they put on a great live show

The Offspring has done some major evolving since their early days. These are more of their “fun” songs that a lot of fans don’t like. But for those of us that have been following them from the beginning, we’re used to stuff from their first album (Smash) that has more of a hard punk feel to it. Go back and watch the video for “Self Esteem” or “Come Out and Play” to see what I’m saying. Would love to get your reaction to that one! lol Keep these great videos coming and for spreading the love and goodness on your channel in these crazy and rough times. Peace!

@MBeano

3 жыл бұрын

absolutely love "By the Skin of my Yellow Country Teeth"

Deep connections between the punks and rastas dating back to the 70s make that island vibe a staple of many punk genres.

"She's Got Issues" is a must!

"Come Out and Play"...;)

Ahh we dedicated this song to a friend's soon-to-be ex-wife. Claimed she couldn't work because was "going to school" yet she never attended class or submitted the work but then flipped out because he was working two jobs and "didn't spend enough time with her". That kind of relationship where you had to bite your tongue aa a friend until they were ready to admit it wasn't working anymore.

Love Love Love this song always goes up to 11 so the neighbours can enjoy it as much as me!

This album has a lot of ‘fun’ tracks. The video for ‘She’s got Issues’ is very well done. It’s not my favourite offspring track but worth a watch for the video.

I played in a band called jungle fish from Orcutt California and we played with and we played with The Offspring several times in Santa Barbara and in Los Angeles fun times

"Gone Away" is a tremendous song

This song cracked me up when I first heard it

There is another song called "Get a Job" by "The Silhouettes" released in November 1957.

Saw these cats in concert in 98... always been wicked fun

❤❤ !! The Offspring is LEGENDARY !! The lead singer has a PHD in Molecular Biology !! So not only a Great singer, he is also a Dr. !! That's what's up !! Love it !!

"Spare Me The Details" and "I Choose" are great ones.

Keep in mind, the song came out in 1998, Dot-Com Boom. At the time, the perception was jobs were everywhere. It may rub people a little bit wrong in the middle of the pandemic. That said, if you can deal with that, it's a hilarous song, and it's not hard to think of some people it might have applied to at different points in my life.

The Offspring were a thing 20+ years ago, I still have the original cassette of their first album (also on vinyl). Bryan Keith "Dexter" Holland has a PhD in Molecular Biology. In 2004,[17] Holland launched his own brand of hot sauce, Gringo Bandito. The Offspring were originally called Manic Subsidal. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Offspring

My kids introduced me to this song................I love it!!!

Why has the song Cecilia popped into my head?!?! The music sounds similar, funny how I do't think I thought of that when I heard it on the radio!!

That's Universal Studios, you can even see one of their tours going by in the background of one of the shots.

the offspring is its own thing and cant be stopped lol ive seen them many times in the past and will be seeing them many times in the future

Love the Offspring.....saw them live for the first time last year before things got shutdown....it was an acoustic set....up until that point, I just kind of liked them....having seen them live now....gotta' say....they are just as good live....and they played some covers as well.....FANTASTIC and one of my favorite concerts I've been to in last 5 years (I was averaging about 25 a year before lockdown). They have a brand new song out called "Let the Bad Times Roll"...worth a listen for ya man. Of their older stuff, my favorite is hands down "You're Gonna Go Far Kid"

I know I’m late, but in case no one else has posted it, this tune is an homage to Simon and Garfunkel’s Cecilia. Probably one of the best a cappella tunes of all time.

your intro music gets me every time, love ya man!!

Self esteem by the offspring is amazing too. She's got issues is brilliant too as is can't get my head around you. All worthy of a listen to

We got free tickets to a show in Brisbane with backstage passes.... man what a great bunch of guys

Before the pandemic I went to Universal and yes you are correct. They say it's the part of the Backlot that shot desperate. Thanks for continuing great react videos!

Lol! Watching the video and 😳 that’s my old JAM BOX ! 🎶🎶🎶 Walking the dog 🎶🎶🎶

Love the Offspring! I grew up in the 70's, but this band is a trip! Good stuff!

True story, this song got me through getting a divorce. I swear the 1st verse was written about that ex. Since it's been awhile since I've suggested it, I'd love to hear you react to Johnny Lang "rack em up", "Lie to me" and or "still raining" Some of the best blues rock ever.

I love these guys. So funny so smart!

I remember oredering skate and snowboarding videos out of Thrasher magazine with these guys playing in the background.

I love Hit That and their cover of Here Kitty Kitty.

One of the first albums i ever owned. They are a great band.

I think this was the first song I heard from the offspring when I was a kid.

My favorite song from The Offspring is All I Want!

Gotta Get Away, Gotta Get Away, Gotta Get Away, Gotta Get away by them for that bass and those drums:D

Self Esteem is a must from them

Yes that was universal. You could see when they are walking across the grass the clock tower from Back to the Future.

Wysteria Lane my brother 😎 😂

A little bit of a sad song, with a good message, "Adam's Song" by Blink 182.

One of my favorite bands.

Obladi, Oblada, life goes on, bra, Lala how their life goes on.

Hey Jamel, in the gameshow host in the gameshow scene is none other than Bob Eubanks, the host of the original version of "The Newlywed Game" and "Card Sharks" Anf if you've ever seen the "Back To The Future" movies, you might recognize the town they're walking through as the fictional town of "Hill Valley" where those movies are set

That is my favorite shirt I have seen in a long time.

I never noticed this was filmed at the downtown/Clock Tower set in Back to the Future.

Bad Habit by 'The Offspring' would be a great reaction while you're on this path.

This song always makes me think about sister-in-law 🤣🤣🤣. I still think my brother could’ve done way better

Hey brother how bout some Kid Rock ~ Amen. It hits home about being a good human . Thanks for all the GREAT music.

You should listen to one of the Fore Fathers of Punk Rock music!!! They’re the first Black Punk Rock band called “Death” from Detroit Michigan in 1971. They went into obscurity and Punkers forgot about them!!! My favorite are Politicians in my eye, Keep on Knocking, or Freakin out?!? There’s plenty more though....

Nice shirt Jamel. I hope everyone who sees the shirt would follow what it says.

They just released their newest song "Let the Bad Times Roll". Awesome as well.

A worthwhile one to react to might be their 2 song set, Dividing By Zero/Slim Pickens does the right thing and rides the bomb to hell Phenomenal animation

The bassline for this song is way more catchy than it has any right to be. Such a fun song

my favorite so far

The town square set is the same one used for Back To The Future

Good song for a Monday!

cool song. reminds me of middle school days.

Hey Jamel if you ever listen to a song by The Beatles called Oo bla Di oobladah you will tell yourself how much the melody of this song reminds you of that classic

Yes!!!👊🏻❤️

This song so puts me in the mind of the Beatles

Great Dance Beat!!!

I believe they filmed this walking through Universal Studios (or one of the bigger recording studios in Ca)

This is a play on The Beatles’ Ob-la-di Ob-la-da

Listen to this song right after listening to the Beatles Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da.

How interesting, I watched LFR Family do a reaction to this song a couple of days ago 💝😃

Love this song!

🔴 JAMEL, you will definitely like “HIT THAT” by the OFFSPRING! 🔴

One of their best songs...but I like ALL their songs, lol.
