I know the song has depressing lyrics but I can't help getting goosebumps Everytime I hear that opening it just kicks my brain straight back to being 13 years old, sitting on my living room floor trying my absolute damnedest to beat my brother's high score in Tony hawk's American wasteland this and wash away by alkaline trio trigger my mind to revert back to when I was a kid and the world didn't suck where we didn't have to pay bills and we got to live life as we pleased with our only fear was getting grounded but we still did the shit we weren't supposed to anyway ... I love this song alot
Loved your comment , puts me back in pretty similar place , perfect resemblance of nostalgia . sadness and happiness at the same time . Wish you al the best
Back when I was a emo skaterboy in high school, still with my first girlfriend who I lost my V card to, hanging out with friends who I would go out and skate with, and playing in a band. Oh man, those were the days.
Every time I hear the intro to this song it reminds me of the ending to American Wasteland. Plays during the final cutscenes when you beat the game. Loved that game and this song
It reminds me of coming home from school and sitting on the floor next to my brother and a box of whales snack crackers and trying to outscore my brother (i always failed)
Spam Bot I'd Say THPS 4, cause it was my first, TH game. I know 1-3 are classics, but you'll always love your first a lil bit more then the rest...... or is it just me??? on the real thow THAW is fucking is Underrated, & sadly over looked
Ryan Gomez I would be content with even just another game like this one with just a great story mode, that online idea would just be the cherry on top to help it live out longer but regardless would love it also if it had that feature
Bravery has been the driving force behind the transformative journey that I embarked on, forever changing my life. It was not an easy path to take, but I knew deep down that I needed to confront my fears head-on in order to grow and evolve. One notable instance where I utilized bravery was when I decided to pursue my passion for photography. For years, I had held myself back due to self-doubt and the fear of failure. However, summoning my courage, I enrolled in photography classes, invested in high-quality equipment, and started capturing the world through my lens. This leap of faith not only allowed me to tap into my creativity but also helped me view the world from a different perspective. Bravery has become my constant companion, pushing me to take risks, embrace challenges, and step outside of my comfort zone. Through embracing my fears and conquering them, I have experienced personal growth, built lasting relationships, and discovered hidden talents within myself. Bravery truly transformed my life, teaching me that stepping into the unknown can lead to incredible opportunities and endless possibilities.
I rediscovered this song in the last few years on Spotify and it sounded familiar as hell. The comment section has reminded me that it was that Tony Hawk game. Glad the track got at least a little exposure; I think this band was better than they got credit for.
Essa música lembra de quando eu era criança e passava horas jogando tony hawk american wastland e saia dps pra andar de skate com meus amigos ou então eu via meu irmão jogando eram tempos tão bons essa música faz parte da minha vida
This Played on the radio while cruising in my car.... fuck things were so much simpler back in the days... this song makes me feel so good It's a feeling in your guts... like a need for new experiences a need for adrenaline damn that song is a blast to my ears and soul
Man I remember this was my favourite band when I was starting out at 16 as a musician in 2006. I’ve since discovered so much music from the past but still love this song. Btw that drummer is incredible
Marvelous song and as many already mentioned: this is entwined with Tony Hawk's American Wasteland. Good 'ol days. Installed that game a while ago wondering if the online server(s) were still up, but unfortunately that wasn't the case. Anyway, magical song!
I was like only 8 years old when I played this game, thank god my cousins gave me this great game it was the best I have ever played and what a legendary game.
Watching this in 2012? What the hell does that even mean? Why wouldn't we watch this? Awesome video, awesome song, awesome band. Stop looking for attention.
This song takes me back in time when me and my cousin was 12 and 10 years old and we were always playing outside, chasing each other. After that we spontaneously went to our cousin and her boyfriend who was in the 20's and started playing Tony Hawk with them and having fun. Best childhood ever!
Omg I love how the song starts!!! Keys start it off Then Keys and bass Keys, bass, and drums Keys, bass, drums, guitar And finally the vocals kick in It's a great sound Oh and another cool thing is the UK version Sam says I've spent my whole life surrounded (This video is the bravery surrounded by ppl and having fun) Then he says I've spent my whole life alone (The U.K. Video is them in the middle of nowhere alone)
I've spent my whole life surrounded and I've spent my whole life alone I wonder why I never wonder why The easiest things are so hard I just want, I just want love I just want, I just want love I just want, I just want love I just want something Something for nothing Something, something for nothing I'm a beggar and I'm a chooser I'm accused, I'm an accuser But nothing's unconditional I hold the whole world accused I've only got myself to blame I wonder why, I never wonder why The easiest things are so hard I just want, I just want love I just want, I just want love I just want, I just want love I just want something Something for nothing Something, something for nothing I just want, I just want love I just want, I just want love I just want, I just want love I just want something Something for nothing Something, something for nothing I'm a beggar and I'm a chooser I'm accused, I'm an accuser But nothing's unconditional
Why are none of these bands popular on youtube?!?! Been listening to the guitar hero on tour for DS and most of them so far don't have that many subscribers! The highest was only 2.7 million or something! I didn't grow up with these bands but I fucking love their music and they are 100 times better than most of the piece of shit that we listen to today! We need more bands like these to bring back that AMAZING MUSIC
I always played this along with THUG 1 and 2 with my brother... before he lost his mind and left us. Still gives me the feels about when I was 7 or so.
I can't believe how many people are here because of American Wasteland. It's been like 10 years since I played that game and just randomly thought of this band aha

Anyone still rocking in 2024?? 🤘
We're still here too, bro! ❤
Yess 🔥🔥

Wow great quote
Dro Gaming must be why he cheated on his wife
Em sorry but that sentence he said it Adolf Hitler
Real i don't lying
I nearly cried while listening to this keyboard intro. This quote is so true.
as soon as that keyboard in the intro starts playing, I get a depressing nostalgic feeling every time
Same here, but it also makes me happy. It's just a great song overall!
i just wanna play tony hawks
zach porter same lol
zach porter yes!
That emo times 😂😂😂
Remember waking up not having a worry in the world and to just turn on your ps2 having the time of your life playing tony hawk American wasteland
Story Mode complete!
[THAW]
I STILL HAVEN'T DONE IT! (because i loved skating around too much to do the story :3)
haha^^
+Darth Vader (Riding a charizard) don't forget your memory card

THAW was the best skating game of all time.

Voo Doo :).

That's great! I hope your brother and you are still close.

Thank you
That final scene where you have the finished skate park, and you talk with Iggy, Boone and mindy.
Brings a tear to my eye :')
Just found my own comment from 8 years ago :) even more nostalgic.
See you in another 8 years
@@joecfcfantasticwow man, you wrote that comment before I ever even played the game, now it's been a solid 7 years since I've touched it. Time flies
Yeeeees ❤️🔥
I discovered the easter egg/ glitch that allowed you to jump through to the second gate/ hallway where they protested the resaurant
@@user-yr7xi1om3hwait what?
this song seems ahead of it's time. the lyrics are timeless. the use of distortion/eltro mixed with rock makes it a classic.
I'll never understand how so many people turned a blind eye to good music.
Samee
@@spiderversed7661 Yo that's dope, never thought I'd see a THAW themed picture in these times!
@@jaimegarcia4436 THAW was my childhood and favorite Tony Hawk game.
Because, all modesty aside, the ability to appreciate good art is not common. Be grateful that you can appreciate it.
I do highlight it.
Back when I was a emo skaterboy in high school, still with my first girlfriend who I lost my V card to, hanging out with friends who I would go out and skate with, and playing in a band. Oh man, those were the days.
Tell me about it, I was all of that but also a surfer in Florida. Now I'm 35 almost 36 and living in Kansas, of all places. I miss those days, too.
American Wasteland, anyone?
:)
ive been looking for this song for years...
I used to play this song on guitar hero all the time
After all these years
Right in the childhood. Loved this song :)
Xbox1Reviews this is in guitar hero?
one of the best tony hawk's american wasteland songs ever
The best...
Yeah. The best.
Heaviest depression/nostalgia kick ever. This keyboard intro kills me everytime
****Long live the American Wasteland****
Yeah!
hell fucking yea!!!
WaveWonder1 Your comment almost made me cry. :')
i still play it till this day.
thepianist126 You should give it to me
That distorted pluck at the intro is pure ecstasy in audio form
This whole song is audio ecstasy
Nostalgia ... 8th grade skate years
so true!!!
First heard this masterpiece in Tony hawk American wasteland. It brings joy to my heart as an adult now
I remember when this album dropped, great to come back to it 17 years later. I'm feeling old now 😅
R.I.P T.H.A.W We will always remember you.
Busted my first natas spin to this 😭
I've always thought this was a happy song because I never listened to the words, now I've listened to the lyrics and it's just like; oh
I know that feeling, bro
It’s almost terrifying to me how relatable these lyrics are
Same with pumped up kicks.
Such an underrated gem of the 2000s.
🥺 NOSTALGIAAAAAAAA
Every time I hear the intro to this song it reminds me of the ending to American Wasteland. Plays during the final cutscenes when you beat the game. Loved that game and this song
It reminds me of coming home from school and sitting on the floor next to my brother and a box of whales snack crackers and trying to outscore my brother (i always failed)
The intro riff just popped into my head randomly in my chemistry class first period. I got butterflies from the nostalgia.
These guys were in all my childhood videogames, Burnout Revenge and Tony Hawk American Wasteland to name a couple.
Man, THAW best tony hawk game ever hands down
Spam Bot I'd Say THPS 4, cause it was my first, TH game. I know 1-3 are classics, but you'll always love your first a lil bit more then the rest......
or is it just me???
on the real thow THAW is fucking is Underrated, & sadly over looked
Tony Hawk needs to make one more great skating game :(
DopeitsRaul 7 having an open world tony hawk game on the current gen with online would be amazing
Ryan Gomez I would be content with even just another game like this one with just a great story mode, that online idea would just be the cherry on top to help it live out longer but regardless would love it also if it had that feature
THUGpro is for you guys. :)
Yeah because pro skater 5 is not it

Thank you for sharing
15 years ago still sounds so cool
I listen to this like once a week to get the chills and have the crashing wave of nostalgia overcome me. I miss American wasteland
I wish this song was longer
If you are readirg this, DON'T waste your 20s. They will be one of the greatest times in your life. Seems to all go downhill from there.
Listening to this song while it was night time in the game was a different expierience.
All their songs are just pure nostalgia.
I rediscovered this song in the last few years on Spotify and it sounded familiar as hell. The comment section has reminded me that it was that Tony Hawk game. Glad the track got at least a little exposure; I think this band was better than they got credit for.

Bons tempos. Tempo que não volta. É as crianças de hoje não vão aproveitar igual era.😢
The bass kills. Carries the song on it's back.
The bass sounds as dark, and as evil as Darth Vader in this song.
"flips are flippin fun!"
summer of 2005. such a great song, shame it didnt catch on
When they made it big in 2005 I wasn't really into them. Now I am.
This Played on the radio while cruising in my car.... fuck things were so much simpler back in the days... this song makes me feel so good It's a feeling in your guts... like a need for new experiences a need for adrenaline damn that song is a blast to my ears and soul
So true
I got here because of that too! It played on the local station and had to track it down again!
THAW!!!
yes
Damn I miss being 20 years old!!!
What. A. Jam.
I love the beginning
Man I remember this was my favourite band when I was starting out at 16 as a musician in 2006. I’ve since discovered so much music from the past but still love this song. Btw that drummer is incredible
I just want something...... Something for nothing...... Im still singing bravery stuff every day man i miss this band .........
G. O. A. T!!!
Marvelous song and as many already mentioned: this is entwined with Tony Hawk's American Wasteland.
Good 'ol days. Installed that game a while ago wondering if the online server(s) were still up, but unfortunately that wasn't the case.
Anyway, magical song!
I was like only 8 years old when I played this game, thank god my cousins gave me this great game it was the best I have ever played and what a legendary game.
Time to download this album again.
Watching this in 2012? What the hell does that even mean? Why wouldn't we watch this? Awesome video, awesome song, awesome band. Stop looking for attention.
when i hear the intro immediately pictures of summer, blue sky, ice cream, holidays and zero worries flash in front of me
ah takes you back to simpler times
it brings me back through the ditches
And burn through the witches
I slam in the back of my
Dragula!
qt schartner I fucking love you!
Ryan Gomez love you too and it's def 1 of my fav songs
Like 8 years looking for this song but finally I found it
This song takes me back in time when me and my cousin was 12 and 10 years old and we were always playing outside, chasing each other. After that we spontaneously went to our cousin and her boyfriend who was in the 20's and started playing Tony Hawk with them and having fun. Best childhood ever!
Aahh... The good old times... :'( :') ❤❤❤
Same here from 1995 ma dude. :') 🤗❤👊
Anyone here listening in 2022??
This song was in Tony Hawk American Wasteland! Miss the good times!
still holds up.
I never treated my old game consoles with respect cuz i was to young to understand what i had.
Omg I love how the song starts!!!
Keys start it off
Then
Keys and bass
Keys, bass, and drums
Keys, bass, drums, guitar
And finally the vocals kick in
It's a great sound
Oh and another cool thing is the UK version
Sam says I've spent my whole life surrounded
(This video is the bravery surrounded by ppl
and having fun)
Then he says I've spent my whole life alone
(The U.K. Video is them in the middle of nowhere alone)
Came here from years of playing American Wasteland, stayed because that game is heavenly and its soundtrack is full of bangers.
The lyrics!👀 The sound! Masterpiece!
This song is awesome im suprised nobody has done a drum cover for it
And still to this day, I play THAW. Also still play THUG 1 and 2.
Anyone here remembering that mission in american wasteland where you have to do that hard trick over the dumpster?
Fuck yes! It took me forever to beat that one
that hard trick was hardflip :)
+xXaerooff2Xx Hardflip 360
Yeah, hardflip and then hf 360, which was of course harder :D no pun intended.
I think the hardest for me was to jump over the big stairs at the pier :l
Always played it on guitar hero nonstop
This song reminds me of house parties in the mid aughts. Ohhh I miss those times. Just its general energy.
This song f*x all these years later
This song is still great no matter how many times you've listened to it. 7 years later and still amazing.
19 years later- song is still amazing
I'm touching my PS2 tonight.
Cause It's been almost 4 years now since I played a Tony Hawk game.
Omg same
Haha same 😢😀😭
+Daniela Prieto im from Perú, this song remember Tony Hawk
Hi pyro fron tf2
