Love the Goo Goo Dolls. Saw them at Rock Fest in Wisconsin a few years ago. John Rzeznik was hilarious. He came on and said "I know what you're all thinking. Why are the Goo Goo Golls at Rock Fest? Well, it's cuz we have more songs than you hear on the radio." Then proceeds to play his hits from the radio. 😂 I didn't hear a bad word about them being there. In fact it was quite the opposite. 🥰
The release one almost every years. Not that long... Some bands take way longer to out out albums I'd say since a boy named goo almost every 3 years... 95, 98, 2002, 2006, 2010, 2013, 2016 and an EP in 2018 I believe
#JohnnyRzeznik is second to none! He is ➡#TheVoice! 🎤 #JohnRzeznik and #RobbyTakac are a powerhouse #RockBand! I am so proud that I am a #FanFromDayOne!! You go fellas!! Always writing the hits!! #GooGooDolls #BestBandEverrrrr 💖🎶🎸
This song is a far cry from the punk music upon which they built their career - my babysitter introduced me to them... anyone remember "Numb"? But I still have lots of love for my hometown boyz from Buffalo. They've been great promoters & supporters of local music & festivals - never forgetting their roots. But Johnny, please lay off the Botox - you don't need it man, just let yourself grow old. ✌
Most tv shows just have crummy mixing, but honestly, it just seems like how the music was written. The guitars are mainly just adding in to what the keyboardist is doing. The guy in the back was also doing some of early guitar effect parts that preceded the chorus. The other guitar was Rzeznik’s, and he was basically just playing along with the keyboardist, so I can see why it’s easy to not even notice it.
All time favourite band. Such an amazing band. Goos has some really amazing songs. Great, deep lyrics.. Still here making better music than 90% than all the shit we hear today.
hahaha!! I always listen to Colbert at 1.5x speed to save myself time. And so this song autoplayed at 1.5 and I was like "hey not too bad, goo goo dolls!" Then I played it at regular speed and oh man... quite a droning tune. Too slow to be so repetitive. I think 1.25x would actually be perfect.
@@thedondeluxe6941 Ah so I was right. I wonder if it is tuned a whole octave low, or is being tuned like a baritone guitar, usually 28"scale, tuned a fifth below.
@@gordonanderson3111 Looks like he's playing the same thing as the bass player most of the time, so I think it's tuned an octave below. I have one myself, it's a very unique sounding instrument. The Cure are famous for using it quite a lot!
I've always enjoyed TGGD's but this sound is pretty far from my cup of tea. Not sure what happened, did I grow old/out of you or did you grow old/out of me?
Not my favorite flavor of theirs, but JR still has great stage presence and energy. Listen to Indestructible and Money, Fame & Fortune off this new album (they’re already out). They sound more like their older stuff. 🤙
It would be a much smaller performance if played in a prison. (Hope people get that reference and isn't offensively meant towards the band, which does a great job.)
Saw them in concert a couple weeks back. The song sounds MUCH live better than this performance. Didn’t have back up singers (which I think they didn’t improve the song during this performance).
I like the Goo Goo Dolls but this song is just OK. It feels kind of like formulaic pop. IDK, there's just something missing to really make it great IMO.
How much do you want to bet that the men who make rude comments about John's looks couldn't get a women to look at them twice if their lives depended on it.
@Dec Mar well, I did go there. I'm sick of all the nasty comments about John. Some people should look at themselves before making fun of someone else. Even if those people ARE good looking, they must be ugly on the inside to say those things
who dressed John? the shirt with 4 buttons undone is trying too hard. I know that wasnt his idea..... he sounded great... I still dislike the song. oh well. highs and lows like the man says lol
LOVE Goo Goo Dolls but I'm not feeling this at all....I really tried. Their latest song "Indestructible" is WAY better! Check tune out if you have not!
I love the Goo Goo Dolls but it's hard to witness Johnny trying to artificially look, dress and sound like he's 25 years old again. They should believe in themselves and not resort to this. Such a shame.
Guys in their 50's, known for great alternative rock songs from the 90's, just shouldn't be playing pop written for modern day teens. This is just bad. And a little sad.
Could Be Comics Thry aren’t writing songs for modern day teens. They are at a stage in their career where they write whatever comes to them. If it’s pop sounding, so be it. If they dropped some hard core indie tracks, that’d be dope as well. They can do what ever they want at this point and John is an amazing song writer so whatever they choose to do moving forward, I’m excited for.

Sorry to say...A predictable pedestrian melody that I have heard a thousand times, predictable chord changes. I would have loved to have been a bit surprised by where the melody goes. Greats like Nik Kershaw, Todd Rundgren, Brian Wilson, Radiohead, Muse, Soundgarden, Steely Dan, knew how to titillate the ears and heart with melodies that were not predictable. We are indeed in a creative Dark Age! 🥺🥺🥺

Nuno Alves Even in the 90s-early 2000s they weren’t punk rock. Depends on your definition of punk. They’ve always been a pop rock band as far as I know. I personally don’t like this new sound though.
the 90s albums were pretty fast for a pop rock band, they still had lots of punk influence. starting with dizzy up the girl, all the punkness was dropped, tho'
@@Matt92Machine they started way before grunge. the first two albums goo goo dolls (1987) and jed (1989) are punk, they had nothing to do with grunge, it didn't even exist back then.
makes me sicks to my stomach--these are the same dudes who once punked out and made great music; now they are just a bunch of sorry sellout, dancing nancies.

The Goo Goo Dolls are truly AMAZING i am loving this new music and LOVED seeing them with Train!! Best Concert Ever!!

Love it! Thanks for sending the Goo-Goo Dolls!
Saw them live in MD last weekend and they played Big Machine, which made my night to hear not just the pop songs.
I can't help but feel like Johnny was blasting Cold As Ice when he came up with this one.
hiring songwriters at this point
I have loved this band since the first time I heard them years ago as a teenager!
They still got it after all these years xD
best song i have heard in years from anyone
I listened or saw this song from them on a talk show here in Brazil, called Altas Horas, and now i'm totally in love with it. GOOd GOOd Dolls. Lol
Still got it baby!
Excellent song. Dare I say the best in years!!
Goo Goo Dolls should go on tour with Lady Gaga, they could call it "Goo Goo - Gaga"
And they all need to do Queen Covers, especially Radio Goo Goo Radio Gaga
And none of those are old jokes at all🤣🤣🤣
The goo goo GaGa tour?🤔hmm.
A bunch of little babies will show up.😁
Jennifer Romiti Yes we've been hearing that tired old lame joke for years now.
They put a lot of soul in their performance. Love seeing that
You guys sound great. Love the new song. Saw you at cmac and you guys rocked 🎸

Agreed!
Very good performance. Not sure why I can't really hear the guitars though, and there's 3 of them (can only *kinda* hear the bass)
Most tv shows just have crummy mixing, but honestly, it just seems like how the music was written. The guitars are mainly just adding in to what the keyboardist is doing. The guy in the back was also doing some of early guitar effect parts that preceded the chorus. The other guitar was Rzeznik’s, and he was basically just playing along with the keyboardist, so I can see why it’s easy to not even notice it.
I think Rzeznik is playing a bass vi.
Awesome Jam! They never disappoint
Wonderful!
Love the Gooz can't wait to see them in November💞💋💞
All time favourite band. Such an amazing band. Goos has some really amazing songs. Great, deep lyrics.. Still here making better music than 90% than all the shit we hear today.

They will play in Rock in Rio next Sunday. They opened for Bon jovi yesterday here in São Paulo. I' m a fan now. ; )
Awe, I like this song. it's cute. 😁
Anybody remember when Goo Goo Dolls was a punk band..?
1.25 speed is more cool. Sounds more like new Pop Rock.
That was good!
Very catchy song! Going straight to my playlist.
This performance is a lot better at 1.5 speed.
Fauler Perfektionist Goo Goo Dolls as produced by Fall Out Boy
Haha at 1.5 it is better lol. I agree it's too much fall out boys. Wish he kept his style with a hint of modern.
I tried it, you are so right!
hahaha!! I always listen to Colbert at 1.5x speed to save myself time. And so this song autoplayed at 1.5 and I was like "hey not too bad, goo goo dolls!"
Then I played it at regular speed and oh man... quite a droning tune. Too slow to be so repetitive. I think 1.25x would actually be perfect.
Lol 1.25 felt more natural. 1.5 made me think he'd start sounding like one of the chipmunks. lol
"If You're willing to go through the Fights WITH Yourself then Find A Way to Fight FOR Yourself!"

How am I first?? Always liked Goo Goo Dolls! Nice!
Because the Colbert crowd is more concerned with cheap political jabs than quality music. Love GGD.

You just described trump!
1,4,56 1,4,5,6 1,4,5,6 - I don't blame them as they try to get back into the charts. It's a catchy tune.
i love the goo goo dolls and i really tried to like this song... but i just don't. Hopefully the album will be better🤞🏼
remember when these guys made rock music?
F. Kusuma I miss it so much.
No.
Was just thinking that. Hope there will be a few good ones on the new album at least.
They never did
WHAT is that super long neck guitar he is playing?
Looks like a Bass 6 crossed with a Jazzmaster, by Squier?
It's a Squier Bass VI. Re-issue of the old Fender Bass VI. Basically a guitar tuned an octave lower, with a 30" inch neck. Nice instrument!
@@thedondeluxe6941 Ah so I was right. I wonder if it is tuned a whole octave low, or is being tuned like a baritone guitar, usually 28"scale, tuned a fifth below.

Take me back!
they should participate in the eurovision song contest
Who knew Cillian Murphy was the lead singer of the Goo Goo Dolls?! 🤣
If you think of Cillian Murphy as a wax museum statue with an alcoholic's face, Johnny Depp's old clothes and Theresa Caputo's haircut... then yeah.
@@gabelogan56 I do think of him that way. Johnny went from being a beautiful Polish man to a ruined old Irish woman with a drinking problem.
Vou comprar o cd.
They are back
That was phenomenal 👏 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Luv all of the layered texturing of the music & vocals on this cd-their best yet in my humble opinion!!!
Otai masih berbisa!! Salute
Great stuff... shared multiple times!
I hope they performed "Indestructible", it's a much better song.
Alfonso Aguirre So agreed
😍😍😍

better than the studio version! johnny's voice sounds awesome
I've always enjoyed TGGD's but this sound is pretty far from my cup of tea. Not sure what happened, did I grow old/out of you or did you grow old/out of me?

❤🎶

THIS is the goo goo dolls?!
Not my favorite flavor of theirs, but JR still has great stage presence and energy. Listen to Indestructible and Money, Fame & Fortune off this new album (they’re already out). They sound more like their older stuff. 🤙
Yeay! Hatsune miku always perform in stephen colbert show, so it plays sugar conspiracy theory & follow me song for it.
What he's playing a Classic Vibe Bass VI?????
I met Robby in my high school
It would be a much smaller performance if played in a prison.
(Hope people get that reference and isn't offensively meant towards the band, which does a great job.)
I Gwess'd I'd find a reference down here.
Very nice, but I think in a Ocean they would Stone the crowd
Is Johnny playing a baritone guitar?

Way too many strings on guitars and bass and not enough rock! Come on boys!
