I heard this song before I really got into Alkaline Trio (yes in the past year or two I've bought most of the early albums) and I was really impressed. It's probably one of the tracks that helped me get into this band. I was always surprised it wasn't an album track.

I was in front of the stage during a nirvana concert in 1993, I believe it signifantly affected my hearing! That being said, nothing they've done since they left asian man has really impressed me that much, except for 'warbrain'!

you're all crazy. you can't compare alk3 music to alk3 music, you're just going to defeat yourself all over. this is one of the only bands i can't pick a fav song/album/member from ever.

looks like they just pieced together clips from the Remains DVD

Report

Someone (February 7, 2007)

It's footage from the DVD but together to the song. So if you don't like the DVD, you won't like the video. At least that's my take.

Report

Someone (February 7, 2007)

That's what I was thinking.

I love in the opening speaking part that they show a clock displaying 4 o'clock when the voice-over is also saying it. Very subtle.

Report

Someone (February 6, 2007)

Why does Skiba always look like he just came back from a round of Chemotherapy? He looks more and more... sickly every time I see him.

Anyway, my favorite Alkaline Trio song. Decent video too.

As a big fan since Goddammit, I'm pretty bummed I've never heard this track before. Awesome song....the censoring is pretty lame though.

Almost as bad as the donkey sound in that Bloodhound Gang radio single where they rip that "The Roof is on Fire" song. I feel old.

"Jaked on Green Beers" is so overrated. It's a good track, but if it were on an album I bet it wouldn't get nearly as much praise.

Kinda cool that they made a video for this. Usually the music industry is really picky about which songs are singles and which songs get a video. A three-year-old song finially gets a video? I'm not complaining.

Report

Adlai_E_Stevenson (February 7, 2007)

Is it just me, or is it fun to see "serious" bands goofing around? I think it kind of serves as a reminder that at the end of the day, they're just dudes (or dudettes).
