    An oldster here, my son would play System of the Down while I was teaching him to drive. My son has since passed away and today is the first time I have listened to them since his passing. I just want to say thank you for the wonderful memories.❤

    I can remember the first time I heard System of a Down on 98 rock , I was in shock of what I heard. My ears have never heard anything like them before. I wanted to hear more of them . When I saw the first video on MTV , I was completely blown away by this awesome band . I bought there cd’s and loved their music ever since. At 51 years old, omg I still enjoy their music to this day .

      When it comes to raw and specifically technical musical talent, metal and other heavier bands almost always take the cake in my opinion. Like, a band like that is one of the types with which you're actually able to find that everyone in the band doesn't just play one thing but can actually shred on many a thing.

    This song is just so artistic. Even among SoaD standards, Darion and Serj harmonize so absurdly well for this entire song and both stand out as such amazing vocalists in different ways. It's almost a crime for them both to be in the same group, but it's one I'm glad to be able to listen to.

      Do you by chance recall the music video ever being different? I remember seeing it on Fuse after school like a bazillion times. When I would hear it come on, I would always drop everything I was doing and stand in front of the TV to watch the video and the reason I did that was because it was such a cool and unique concept; just a screen, on which, cgi paint marks would appear to visually represent the sound and as more instruments and the vocals came in, each sound had it's own color, pattern, shape, and, movement. They all looked like how they sounded and each did their own thing but together, gradually filling the screen as one big painting. There's a clip of it from 2:25 to 2:55 in this video but I explicitly remember the whole video being the painting stuff.. that's WHY I loved the music video so much. I tried showing it to my bf a couple years ago and I couldn't find any trace of the video the way I remember and I can't find anyone who remembers it either. I've found myself here in a universe where one of the coolest music videos ever doesn't even exist and it bums me right out. I just wanna see that video again 🥺 Do you remember? Does ANYBODY remember?

      ​@@NolifeterranI remember that in an AMA with Daron iirc, he said that they write lyrics for the common person to listen to and think about "while waiting in the car for their girlfriend". Also should be noted that Daron wrote this song while waiting in the car for his girlfriend. It's honestly kind of weird how often it happens that they have one or two lines that are so specific but open to so much interpretation at the same time.

      The album they did with that song on it had a bunch of song lyrics that didn't seem to make sense, what I realized about that album was they started putting nonsense lyrics in a lot of their songs just to be catchy & to poke fun at the music that was popular at the time. If you go back and listen to that entire album, you will see what I mean, the album's hypnotized and mesmerized were exactly like that, they were intentionally putting goofy lyrics to prove it would still be popular people would still sing the lyrics and it would still sell. And it did. 😂 "I'm just sitting in my car and waiting for my girl" ... That's literally every love song in a nutshell, especially in the early 2000s, those guys are smart, they know what they're doing.
