Mike Herrera - Im 41 now and grew up loving your music! It is insane how you have kept your talent over years and are still playing the classics. Millencolin, MXPX, Goldfinger .. and the rest.. Your music, a pipe and skateboard was once all I needed to be happy! Thank you for still singing for us Mike.. You're a legend!
43 years old and have been listening to MxPx and Millencolin since high school. I saw mxpx play a show with the Vandals and the Ataris in Guadalupe, California in 1997. It was called the Turd Town Tour. Mike got his bass string caught on someone’s facial piercing 😂
My childhood right there. 17 years ago I started listening to them. I’m 29 now and still listen to them now. They will always hold a special place in my heart.
Dude! Punk o rama 5 was the first place I ever heard millencollin too! But the song on that comp is Black Eye. Still my all time fav by them. So glad i randomly picked up that comp at the record store all those years ago.
Thats the one with the monkeys on it right? THAT WAS MY FIRST TOO! Had "Black Eye" and that Rancid song from that underrated album that no one wants to talk about. My teenage years are coming back, thanks man.
It's funny to hear someone not swedish sing "the kid the whole day", which is a literal translation of a swedish expression. "Grabben hela dan" means someone who is happy, funny, helpful, alert. Peppy, I guess you would say in english. I've always enjoyed when Millencolin put swedish references in their lyrics. Like Battery Check for instance, to fully get it I guess you have to know that Linné is a part of Gothenburg where Nikola lives today and by driving north on E20 from Gothenburg you end up in his hometown Örebro after about 300km.
Theres a few bands from that era that changed the game for ever. The true spirit of punk rock. These bands still rock today. And they should be in some kind of all of fame.
What I find absolutely staggering about this version is Mike's ability to match Nikola's enunciation. He does such a great job of imitating the timbre of his voice. There's something about how Nikola sing that is generally only heard in non-native speakers singing in English. (Hi-standard are similiar) Mike crushes it here. Amazing cover.
one of my favorite punk vocalists from one of my favorite punk bands, singing one of my favorite punk songs by one of my other favorite punk bands! Fantastic then..!
I really hope mike keeps putting out these acoustic tunes great voice as always and awesome guitar work keep playing and posting please Herrera.grew up on mxpx and many others now I'm old and these acoustic jams are killer gives me new life
Been listening to this song since I was like 6 or 7 and been listening to MxPx for about that long so this is my childhood combining love it. I'm 28 now married with two beautiful little girls and they like the stuff I grew up on such as this 😊
You’re so damn good it’s ridiculous. I grew up on MxPx, “Life in General” was one of my first punk albums and your latest S/T is absolutely fantastic. And now your covering Millencolin, one of my other all time favorites? Too perfect! Your voice is perfect for this take, love the video!
Love me some Millencolin acoustic covers by you Mike. How about a cross-country MxPx tour and hit up Albany, NY along the way? I would love to see you guys for the first time ever after all these years of listening to you. Thank you for all the videos during this time. Much love.
Great cover. It turned me onto Millencolin when I needed new punk rock music in my life. Iv'e really enjoyed all the acoustic sessions over the past year. Thanks for all you do Mike!
Man! You've just made me go back in time 20 years to wonderful happy years, because of me, my life, because of millencoloin, because of mxpx. We tend to join with unknown people back in ttime and share maybe a disk, a conversation, a song, some beers, and this is like that our favourite musicians spending time together, being friends and jaming, that's so nice! Hope I can invite you all with some bers some time! Thank you man!
thats great man, 2 bands of incredible songs that aways told me soo much about life.i say told? sorry. you teach. big hug for millencolin!!!an' mxpx . punk rock usa!!!! u rule!!!! and this song!!!! i dont need too say much. anthem!!!
Pennybridge pioneers is one of my favorite albums ever. Listened to it once a week for 20+ years. I love this cover. Im an "essential worker" but while I was working someone stabbed me in the abdomen a month ago. I was essentially quarantined in bed and love all the quarantine vids from goldfinger and offspring etc. Thank you Mike. Adam from NJ
Este tema significa mucho Empecé a ver la realidad a los 11 años Y es tal cual la canción lo que me pasó en la cabeza siempre Un genio Nikola Saludos Mike desde Argentina
My love for MXPX happened in high school, and helped me in regards to my chronic PTSD. I'm in my 30's now, but I still have fond memories of so many songs. I lived out in WA for 5 years and got super excited passing by Bremerton, haha. Millencolin also was one of my favs too, so to see you covering this just warms my heart.
Well done Mike! I hung out with you all night back in Colorado when we shared the stage with Rancid, you were a ton of fun to hang with and chat with all night. Take care and keep up the great work. -Chad from Above the Noise (played shows with you when I was in I Am Ghost)
Mate, loved your version of such a classic song. I have been into Millencolin (and MxPx) for ages and really love that album and now your version tops it!! Yew! Please do 'Fox' next.
No Cigar is easily one of the best punkrock songs ever written.
I mean, sure! If the one and only Hoff thinks that way it must be true.
Definitely 👍
Amazing song but saying that is just false
It’s a good song but it isn’t a punk song....it’s a pop song
clearly you've never heard of the decline

I just hit 40, and I agree with you 100% Rock on man
40 here just heard this song for the 1st time last month
I sure hope it's a weed pipe...
@@raalphsic4527 Is there any other type? 😁

Crazy how a song from your past can make it back around to you when you need it the most.
Mike can repost this song 100 more times and I’ll still watch them all.
My childhood right there. 17 years ago I started listening to them. I’m 29 now and still listen to them now. They will always hold a special place in my heart.
One of my faves off Punk-'O-Rama V (which may be one of the best comps ever put together).
Ohhhhh this is a topic for sure. V is cracking
Dude! Punk o rama 5 was the first place I ever heard millencollin too! But the song on that comp is Black Eye. Still my all time fav by them. So glad i randomly picked up that comp at the record store all those years ago.
Punk o Rama. Was the shit exposed me to so much
Thats the one with the monkeys on it right? THAT WAS MY FIRST TOO! Had "Black Eye" and that Rancid song from that underrated album that no one wants to talk about. My teenage years are coming back, thanks man.
Aaron Garcia yes!! Me too!! Always picked it up at Warped
This song will never get old. I really enjoy your cover of “No Cigar” Thanks for jamming it out for us.
This is so beautiful. I have no Fürther words. Im sorry,.
Mike!!! great to see you on these videos , please keep make videos
Kalian juga dong 🤘
Mike Herrera is in MxPx, who made it into Tony Hawk 1+2 with Lets Ride, did music with Goldfinger, covered a Millencollin, truly the THPS king.

i never noticed the swedish tendencies of the song, its true that their english songwriting is impeccable over there
Very interesting!!
Thank you for the info. I listen to them for more than 20 years now.
Love from Brazil.
We need a MXPX/Millencolin show in Austin,Tx.
Theres a few bands from that era that changed the game for ever. The true spirit of punk rock. These bands still rock today. And they should be in some kind of all of fame.
Que versão espetacular 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 🇧🇷
I so wish you released this song this is my favorite rendition.
AWESOME! As a 46 year old I grew up on these two bands, seen both live in Australia...thanks for the memories boys and keeping it real, so relatable!
My second favorite punk rock band covering my favorite punk rock band, this is a dream!
I really like you Mike, i'm 15 ,i start to play guitar because of you ,you're my idole
f8ck ya buddy! Stay rockin'.

Millencolin Fan since 98. The love is still going on. This song is awesome. Nice cover
Saw them live back in 1998 in Madrid. Since then, I've been to maybe 6-7 Millencolin concerts. Always amazing.
Mike have one of the most beautiful voices i've ever heard. We can feel his soul in every song he sings and for me, That it makes him different.
I'm from Brazil, I love millencolin and mxpx!!!!!
This song came out when I was a freshman in high school. It meant a lot to me then, and I occasionally come back to it to reminisce. Great cover man!
This song came out while I was still in 1st grade been listening to it since, I'm 28 now and got my 10 year old and 7 year old daughters jamming to it
I showed this to my next gen punk fan nephew. He loved it. Thanks, Mike.
one of my favorite punk vocalists from one of my favorite punk bands, singing one of my favorite punk songs by one of my other favorite punk bands! Fantastic then..!
These are awesome. I’m really loving your acoustic versions of punk songs
Love you Mike. Great cover I loved Millencolin back in the day. Would love to hear your rendition of The Ballad!
killer cover of one of Millencolins best tracks. thanks Mike.
...So beautiful,Rodney Mullen is still "Manualing" ;)
quarantine aint so bad after all, without it we would never have this kinda stuff!! Hell yeah!!!!
Love to see Mike still play. It's not a phase baby.
Brilliant cover Mike, Great job!
this has been one of my favorite songs since I discovered it on a Punk-o-rama album in high school like 20 years ago. fantastic cover
One of the best songs ever written... perfectly performed. Nice work brother.
This was always my anthem when I was worried about what people thought if me. Love it so much! Great cover! Thank you!❤
My favorite man playing my favorite Millencolin song. It truly is a good day.

Thank you for the music Mike! MxPx and Millencolin were a huge part of the soundtrack to my life. So many memories. Thank you!

check out goldfinger too, he was in that band also.
Life In General was my first exposure to MXPX, too. Great album!
Love my fellow Swedish guys! You did an amazing job at this song!!!
Love your cover of No Cigar, your previous version has been on repeat during lockdown. Would love some other Millencolin covers
having a great voice is common, but a signature voice? man, that's another game.
Ah, there you are, voice of my youth ❤
Absolutely amazing version.
MxPx needs to record this one, Mike.
Love me some Millencolin acoustic covers by you Mike. How about a cross-country MxPx tour and hit up Albany, NY along the way? I would love to see you guys for the first time ever after all these years of listening to you. Thank you for all the videos during this time. Much love.

Man...this (THPS 2) and all of Ever Passing Moment...and the smell of the lava rock in Bend OR. Memories. 👍 job mike
Nice cover! I found your band MxPx while listening to Spotify. I never thought I'd like punk music but now that's all I listen to!
Great cover. It turned me onto Millencolin when I needed new punk rock music in my life. Iv'e really enjoyed all the acoustic sessions over the past year. Thanks for all you do Mike!

Awesome cover!! I remember when I first heard this song on "Punk-o-Rama 3" that album really got me into punk rock
