There is a great story behind this!: "It came about when somebody wrote in to our Jimmy Eat World AOL account. We thought we were all being pioneers on Static Prevails because we listed an email address that people could write us at. That was not a thing in ’96. So this person wrote in - I don’t know why they were writing us - but they were just talking about how they felt like they weren’t being accepted by the punk rock kids at their school. She wasn’t punk enough for them. It was really weird, because punk is supposed to be inclusive. It’s supposed to be about not caring. It’s supposed to be the opposite of the behaviour that these people were exhibiting. "I was just like, you don’t need those people anymore. Why do you care so much about this external validation? It’s a lifelong pursuit.
"Bleed American", "A Praise Chorus", "Sweetness", "Hear You Me", and "The Authority Song" are also other great tracks off this album. Also, songs like "Pain", "Just Tonight", and "Futures" off their follow-up album are amazing. Underrated band.
They are flat out amazing song writers! Tons of really good songs and awesome lines on each album. Bleed American is a really good album and a good introduction to the band for folks
Love Jimmy Eat World. I have all their CDs. Everything they've recorded is golden. I can't pick a song from them all, as it's all so good. I love sing-a-long time with your comments interspersed!
Saw them live! Loved them since I was a teen. They have another song called “Hear you Me” check it out it has a special place in my heart 💜 I dedicated it to my grandma when she passed.
I've always loved A Praise Chorus, Sweetness, and Pain. Hear You Me is a very pretty song, but for me it conjures up memories of A Cinderella Story, which my friends dragged me to see. lol
@Rose Madder oh my gosh wow I never knew that! Thank you so much for telling me the story. May they Rest In Peace and thank you for your sweet words 🙏🏻🥲
I'm always so happy to be GenX in terms of music. Many of us were exposed to the music of our parents, and then got the contemporary music genres through our childhoods and adulthoods. Watching younger folks like you have similar experiences journeying through music makes me so happy. You have so many decades of music to explore 💜.
@@marileecornelius1777 I mean, I was 25 and seeing them at festivals. Not really worth quibbling over, but the whole point is how cool it is to experience what music came before and watch what comes next.
Yesss!!! So many feelings and memories with this song! It's one of those roll down the windows in the car and sing at the top of your lungs songs! Took me right back to summer as a kid/teenager! 😍
One of my very favorite bands. they've got so many great songs like Bleed American, A Praise to Chorus, Sweetness, If you don't don't, Work, Kill, Big Casino, Polaris, Disintegration, Dizzy, Crush, Blister, Lucky Denver Mint, You With Me, Sure and Certain, Pass The Baby, Criminal Energy, Delivery, All The Way (Stay) etc.. But my all time favorite from them has got to be "23", it's simply majestic.
This is my first time seeing the video but I’ve loved the song for a few years. Like you said, a two for one special-great beat and a message that I’ve needed to hear more than once in my life. There is nothing about this song to not like. And I loved how in the video those two decided to just be themselves in the end. Great reaction!
It brings warm feelings seeing oldies that I would have considered in the day "modern" being revitalized in youth today... kinda like how I was a hipster for oldies myself while still loving the music of the day.
My oldest son introduced me to them and they're Awesome!! He has Great Taste in Music!! Takes after his Dad!! =P Great Reaction and HEY! Great Shirt your Wearing! ❤️😁😁😁
Many people say that good music died after the 80s but there was some great music like this from the 90s through the mid-2000s. I'm sure that there is still lots of great music out there but much of it seems to be hidden.
Oh I’m so happy you’ve found Jimmy Eat World! These are one of my fave bands alongside Fall Out Boy! Every song on the Bleed American album is a banger! I have spent many a night on the dance floor in the club dancing my heart out to them! I agree with everyone else listen to Sweetness and for a different pace - Hear You Me which has played at so many funerals and breaks my heart!
I've loved this song since the first time I heard it. For me, it fits in a nice playlist trio with The Ataris' "In This Diary" and Allister "Somewhere on Fullerton".
Sweetness, Bleed American, Clarity, your new aesthetic, blister, Claire, 23, work, pain, big casino, let it happen and disintegration and so many others are all great songs u should react to

JayVee , Hi love you show , keeps me going through lockUp. could you please consider , Amazing grace by the late Aboriginal Australian , Gurrumul and Paul Kelly. I think you will enjoy the mix of a beautiful aboriginal man and an aussie great Paul Kelly. pretty please , you would make my lockup feel so good, your reactions make me smile. PS: adored The opera
"Sweetness" is also another banger from them.
69 dude lol

No Sensitivity and Work
Great!
The most underrated band on planet earth.
Very underrated band. You should check out “Hear You Me” and “Damage”
They are flat out amazing song writers! Tons of really good songs and awesome lines on each album. Bleed American is a really good album and a good introduction to the band for folks
Excellent playlist song. This and “Sweetnest” never get old.
Absolutely
I started listening to them over 20 years ago. The lead singer still looks the same. It's unnerving.
Love this song, it's always on my playlists - My daughter was really into them when she was a teen and I even went to one of their shows with her.
Love Jimmy Eat World. I have all their CDs. Everything they've recorded is golden. I can't pick a song from them all, as it's all so good. I love sing-a-long time with your comments interspersed!
So many good albums, although Clarity will always be tops for me
Sweetness, Pain, Hear You Me, Bleed American... All amazing songs.
Saw them open up for Green Day in 2004...awesome concert!

@Rose Madder so do I! Wheezer is my husbands favorite band actually so that was extra cool 😎
I played that song at my sister's funeral 17 years ago, and I still have her JEW shirt that says "may angels lead you in".

Truth.
...This isn't GenX, this is solidly millennial. It was released in 2001.
@@marileecornelius1777 How old you think the band members were at the time? I think that's what she was getting at.

I like this song, especially on shitty days. Cheers me up. ☺
They're worth delving into! They have some really awesome sounds.
WE Love you, Jay 😍
This has to be my favorite thing about TH-cam.. People discovering stuff they wouldn't necessarily come across in their everyday life.
This song helps when my depression is kicking my butt. Instant smile. 💜💜💜
I love this song! Takes me back to when I was a teen!
This is one of my favorite songs, I always felt like an outcast but stayed myself and fitted in eventually
I love this band and this song .
Their album " Futures " is one of my favorites to this day .
Great Review in advance ❤...
This is my first time seeing the video but I’ve loved the song for a few years. Like you said, a two for one special-great beat and a message that I’ve needed to hear more than once in my life. There is nothing about this song to not like. And I loved how in the video those two decided to just be themselves in the end. Great reaction!
When I first heard this song I loved it!❤ I bought the CD.😃
It brings warm feelings seeing oldies that I would have considered in the day "modern" being revitalized in youth today... kinda like how I was a hipster for oldies myself while still loving the music of the day.
This has been happening lately and it makes me feel weird 😅 It's good though. I guess it makes me really grasp how long ago it was. Crazy.
Check out “Lucky Denver Mint” and “Work” - awesome songs from the boys!
Check out their song Lucky Denver Mint! That’s my favorite!!
Even when you're 50 you'll need to affirm yourself. Trust me, kids, and this does the trick every time.
Great flashback, i appreciated this one, thanks.
My oldest son introduced me to them and they're Awesome!! He has Great Taste in Music!! Takes after his Dad!! =P Great Reaction and HEY! Great Shirt your Wearing! ❤️😁😁😁
"Sweetness" is still one of my favorite treadmill running songs. Definitely gets the blood pumpin'.
Haha never knew the name of this group!!!! What a name... sounds like a Disney serie great song. I’m sure I’ve heard other songs from this group.
Many people say that good music died after the 80s but there was some great music like this from the 90s through the mid-2000s. I'm sure that there is still lots of great music out there but much of it seems to be hidden.
I love that you are listening to such a wide variety of music.
Love this band! I saw them several years ago touring with Incubus, and they sounded just as good live and their energy was incredible!
You gotta love them punk guitar riffs
For more Jimmy Eat World, I would recomend Bleed American as your next song
Gotta do the Holy Trinity of this, Stacey's Mom, and 1985 lol
This song and " Sweetness" are amazing songs, love it! Thank you for the great reaction! 🙂♥️
Love Jimmy Eat World so many great tracks in their catalogue to enjoy!!
This was my personal theme song... don't write yourself off, yet. yup!
Oh I’m so happy you’ve found Jimmy Eat World! These are one of my fave bands alongside Fall Out Boy! Every song on the Bleed American album is a banger!

best song ever made. period.
Another good one for a party. Sing it at top note people.😁👍🎶❤️
Love this song. Thanks for reacting 🤙.
Love this song. My high school days

Good music from my jr high/high school days damn times and music has changed.
This takes me back to middle school. Love it
I don’t think I’ve ever listened to this song just once ...it always gets a replay.
Such a great tune! Be yourself!!!
Good song, good band. That whole album is good. Very good vocals
really just such a perfect solo
short sweet and flows nicely
I love this song. So much. Watch 'The Sorcerer's Apprentice' it also has a One Republic song I love. Secrets.
Another kind of different style rock. The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus- False Pretense. Nice blend of rock in the 90's through 2010's
Great choice. Love this song.
LOVE jimmy eat world!!!
"Sweetness" and "Just watch the fireworks" are also great songs by this band.
I've loved this song since the first time I heard it. For me, it fits in a nice playlist trio with The Ataris' "In This Diary" and Allister "Somewhere on Fullerton".
Sweetness, Bleed American, Clarity, your new aesthetic, blister, Claire, 23, work, pain, big casino, let it happen and disintegration and so many others are all great songs u should react to
I love this song. My favourite song of theirs is called 23.
this whole album is great...I love some Jimmy Eat World...gotta check out their Something Loud...also a great J.E.W song
My most favourite song from JEW is Clarity from the album Clarity (their best album imho)
This song got me through some times. Good album, too.
I had forgotten this song...Thank you!!!!!!!!
I wore out this song in the early 2000s.
Nostalgic song.
Love this, it has been my alarm tone forever :)
Sweetness is a catchy pop rock song also. Bleed American a little harder
You have to listen to “Hear You Me” the song is legendary .
I fking love that bdass shirt
how tf have you not reacted to hear you me by them yet? That one is my favourite
Get Right is my favorite song from them. Excellent song
Bonus points for the ELO tee
Underrated band .
I think i first saw them on David Letterman, back some years ago. Check out their live performances on his show, they killed it. "Kids!"
Always a great time.. 🎼🎸🎸🎼
Its been 20 years since Bleed American and that other album came out, kinda for the other album. But they changed a lot. Still so good
Evening Jay
This is a GREAT workout song for running, biking, etc. High BPMs!
I LOVE this song.Great message and always puts me in a happy mood. This era of music was so amazing.

Great track
Listen to “Face Down” by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. ❤️
Well then, you got me on that one. I guess we got to listen to it together for the first time
I see that you have an ELO t shirt on so you have to check out my favorite ELO song All Over The World. Check out the version from Xanadu.
PLEASE try All American Rejects - Swing Swing
React to Nickelback or mumford and sons
Two great bands, i say hello from México

Not a big fan but their cover of firestarter by the Prodigy is really cool!
Check out “Lucky Denver Mint”!
