So for years I've felt this song doesn't get enough praise... Yesterday I was about to leave the Supermarket, couldn't believe it, this banger started playing through the speakers! As you could imagine, immediately pretended I forgot something... Just to keep listening!
I had the biggest crush on Ben Campbell when I was like, 12 lol. He lived down the road from my nanas house, with a few of the atlas members, and whenever he'd walk past, he'd stop and chat with my nana and mum, and I got all flustered and shy hahaha
Lived here in NZ and listened to this song growing up, and still do today, Love it...Can't believe I only just found out they're from New Zealand. I love it
if I remember right they were a band that won that high school band challenge thing that was a thing in the 90s. there was a stage challenge version as well for school to put on a drama performance. they had a couple of years of success after that then faded away. now I'm really aging myself lol
When I first moved to NZ from Aussie 20 years ago, I heard this while milking in the shed and loved it soon as I heard it !!!!!!!!!!! think the cows did to :)
This Has Been One Of My Favorite Songs Since I Brought The Now 7 CD When I Was Like 6! I Love Them So Much! I Got So Exited Coz The Drummer Was A Christchurch Easter Camp This Year, He Was Real Cool.
First live band I can remember seeing. Still one of the best. Only 100 people were there. Nath was going round shaking everyones hands, having photos taken, etc, during songs. Was EPIC! Now its Nath King and Atlas. Gotta say, I prefer Zed over Atlas.
Travelled home to NZ and saw this band at the Papamoa Tavern on NYEve2011 - man they ROCKED the joint!!! They opened for The Feelers who were just as AWESOME
Just saw these guys live last weekend at the RWC celebrations and they were as amazing as always. Are they reforming?? Need to see them again in a proper concert!!
I'm an Aussie, and came here in 1999; heard this while I was miking one morning and thought it was frig'n awesome....and a Kiwi band too...does need more exposure O'seas....

[Intense screaming]: Somebody, save me! Ugh... I miss Smallville. I wish the company holding the rights of that show would sell it off to Netflix. I miss that show:(
I heard this song on Episode 3: Hothead Season 1 of Smallville at the very beginning. That is why I looked up the song and watched this awesome music video!! (:
Heard this for the first time in the early 2000s when it was played during an episode of Smallville. Heard it again just the other day during the end credits of American Pie 2.
Music from 1990 to 2010 was something special so much better than music now could ever be it just had a power to it a intensity that hit home with your emotions
Can't believe this was part of the American Pie 2 soundtrack, a New Zealand song in an all American teen frat movie. ( Aswell as Bic Runga's - "Sway" in American Pie 1 ) Well done !!
one of the best bands from my youth, along with elemeno p!! wait, was this in smallville? i loved that show, respect: to them and zed if it was in a popular american show :)
and goodshirt sophie such a brilliant song, and music video is perfect. and tadpole and bic runga, and brooke fraser. damn theres some damn good kiwi music out there! :) oh, and dave dobbyn loyal/slice of heaven.. the exponents, crazy yes dumb no, atlas, and split enz 6 months in a leaky boat, ok i could go on forever, lol. and im starting to go a bit oldschool... damn theres just so many... 48 may even. ill stop or ill be here forever, lol
Thank you, Rebel Sport, for keeping this song alive.
Thank you for reminding me. Even annoying ads illicit mega nostalgia.
🖤🖤🖤

100% agree, I know they probably still play it a lot in NZ for a multitude of events, but it's such a good song. Wish it was more recognised globally.
They played this song in smallville but yeah I get what you mean aye!
@@wekiwisdofly85 it totally fits!! I can't even begin how I amaze at that scene...night,raining,field,mud,FOOTBALL and this song played
they play all the nostalgic songs to keep you in there longer so you might buy more shit lol
rebel sport to the max
LOL!!
in full 240p, what a time to be alive.
Living the dream.
I'm watching Smallville right now, the reason I'm here :P
Great series and great song
Same!
Just watched the episode 3, season 1 yesterday evening. Man is this a cool show.
I had the biggest crush on Ben Campbell when I was like, 12 lol. He lived down the road from my nanas house, with a few of the atlas members, and whenever he'd walk past, he'd stop and chat with my nana and mum, and I got all flustered and shy hahaha
I was re-watching smallville and this song came on. I had totally forgotten about this gem
This song was on Smallville?? Nice
Same 😂
Remember this song from the early 2000's such a great song. New Zealand Music has talent indeed!
Lived here in NZ and listened to this song growing up, and still do today, Love it...Can't believe I only just found out they're from New Zealand. I love it
Bryn Schievink same brother

Part of this song was on the Rebel Sport ads.
Great to be a kiwi
Hell yeah
Yep
Great to be MAORI Chee Hoo
Great song. A millennium song. The 90s into 2000. Great memories and times.
This is the first song I remember listening to, it took me ages to find it because I only heard it once on Rage, really worth it.
Kiwi Legends! I was so young when they were around. Awesome vocals, songs are a buzz, amazing drummer and the lead guitarist is a GOD!
Rebel Sports needs to bring this song back
When I first moved to NZ from Aussie 20 years ago, I heard this while milking in the shed and loved it soon as I heard it !!!!!!!!!!! think the cows did to :)
Were any of the cows called Daisy? th-cam.com/video/LHKNroK7sLs/w-d-xo.html

Wow, didn't know they were kiwi's. This changes everything!
Brings back memories girls, skating, fights, my prime days
Wicked song, should be played far more often!

Me too Bro, Me too...
I remeber, this was the first rock song i really liked, i was 9 or 10 and i just listened to it over and over
Music from 1990 to 2010 was something special so much better than music now could ever be it just had a power to it a intensity that hit home with your emotions
Can't believe this was part of the American Pie 2 soundtrack, a New Zealand song
in an all American teen frat movie. ( Aswell as Bic Runga's - "Sway" in American Pie 1 ) Well done !!
