Who else did Megan bring here in 2024? 🐍
Me 🙋🏽♀️
I just watched it before this! 😊
Me !!
Okkk!!! 💥☄️
🙋🏾♀️
Who’s here after Megan arrived at the restaurant, went into the kitchen, cooked herself a meal, ate it (and left no crumbs) cleaned up the table, paid the bill and then promptly left?! 💝💅
PERIODT
thank you Megan for reminding everyone of one of the best pop songs ever made
Shout out to Megan for resuscitating this song
Who’s listen it in 2024 ?🙃
Ayyyeee 🥳
bruh , I listen her every year ^___^*||
Yo
Me bro
People with good taste
When I was a kid, I use to think she was from the future… but looking back she really was ahead of her time!
She has always being a Pioneer, out of the box and authentic to herself woman.
Definitely ahead of her time what a legend ✌️
Na nerj3o lelor wakila 😢😢😢
Hollywood walk of Fame Star ⭐ finally truly deserved I couldn't be happier ❤️
she probably is
2024 and this still never gets old
It reminds me of my childhood, especially in Just Dance 3🕺🏻✨️
@@letizia.fYES
Oh, I know. I’d be more than happy if she released new music.
Fr
@@letizia.fomg fr
Thanks Gwen for getting the sample approved for Megs song 🥹 this is such a nostalgic track omg
this song aged like a fine wine. if it was released tomorrow i think it would chart higher than it did 20 years ago
thats so real
Literally
I thought this is new. First time to hear this.
It really would tho. It needs a resurgence.
@@KuroMingMing Gwen stefani has been around since her band No Doubt in like 1994.
I feel like Gwen doesn’t get talked about enough in the “most influential pop stars” category.
I think so to because she inspired a lot of big stars today
That’s what I’m thinking!
Because she isn't pop
@@oasis4ever718 LOL WHAT
@@rollercoaster24 she’s alternative
Megan brought me back to the good old days!!! 🤪🔥🫶🏽💕
This song could easily been released today, still sounds so fresh
As a metal head and not really a pop fan I miss pop songs with such heavy instrumentals
You should definitely check out Rina Sawayama’s album. The guitars on that rip harder than the guitars on a lot of rock albums nowadays. You’ll love it. Dynasty has a sick solo. And stuff like Who’s Gonna Save You Now, STFU, and XS just fucking rock. I have no idea how she isn’t the biggest pop star in the world right now.
Also you might like Poppy. She started off as sort of a bubblegum pop pastiche and then pivoted into being like sort of an American answer to Babymetal. Though at this stage I think Poppy’s stuff has become more embraced by the metal community than the pop one.
Agreed.
Nobody Cares if you are mEtAl HeAd just listen to MUSIC and enjoy ART
Gwen made this song just after leaving a punk rock band that she’d been in for 16 years. Probably explains why her pop songs are on the heavier side. I love it.
same
Never realised how motivational this song was
Im glad that someone else sees this too...need to get my shit together
I Dunno blask
I Dunno And have you realised what handsome you are? :-)
I Dunno
Laura Martin thank you :)
2024:Today's musicians and singers better get inspired, learn and get back to real music like that of Gwen Stefani.
Here after Megan Thee Stallion’s new song Boa samples this 🔥
We here lol 🔥
🔥
If released today, would be the hottest song on the charts. Waayyyyyy before its time. Timeless song.
I mean probably not today, but certainly a good 5/6 years after it was first released. The song definitely foreshadowed Gaga etc.
Absolutely!!
I remember this being one of the most popular songs and praised when it was released?
@@JukeJonathan That's where we differ in opinion. The song was popular, but not #1 record in the US popular. While many would say it was the best song on the album, it was very underrated in comparison to how it performed on the charts in relation to her contemporaries.
@@christopher_munn well, it got to no. 4 in the UK charts. It was ABSOLUTELY EVERYWHERE at the time (in the UK).
She really made a song about writers block lol
I know lol..it's actually so brilliant!!💖🦄
The video is about writers block, not the song. Linda Perry can write her ass off.
@@MyhorseInthegravy what? did you listen to the song? of course its about the writers block, as has been stated by gwen
I always got the impression the song was about her fear of starting a solo career but I guess it was about writers block.
@@Danniidude Both. It's about writers block AND being frightened of going it alone and being successful as well.
Stefani Gwen is more talented that Taylor swift
But who’s saying Gwen isn’t talented and why do you gotta randomly bring up Taylor? She did nothing to Gwen.
F yes !!
Who's Taylor Swift?
@@mmhusklerofficial3721 lol
Agreed
In this clip, Gwen is the eighth wonder of the world with her hair, make-up, facial expressions and magnificent voice.
The song was ahead of its time. Hollaback Girl saved the album (and made the album and her solo launch huge), but this song was what best represented who Gwen wanted to be as a solo artist back then. Pop, eclectic, fun, adventurous, but always with a wink and a conscientiousness on knowing how ridiculous she was being. Loved her then, love her now.
saved the album in the US, in Europe this was her biggest hit.
follow me in tik tok: @irisvargaas ;)
skurinski fucking aye
Whole heartily agree
In Latinamerica this song was huge
This song is one of the best pop songs ever written. Banging.
Preach the word.🙏😌😆
And sus
@@live4godd no that word?... Don't get it. 🤷♀️
@@LoddyDah it was no "the word" not preach "the word"
@@LoddyDah or just didnt like the word??
Meg brought us back ❤❤❤😘😘
You know you're getting up in age when you know all the samples used by these new artists. Meg brought me here!
Wait man dont remind 🤧 I ain’t ready man
I can never get enough of Gwen... this song still sounds so fresh and chaotic. Perfection.
When they put up a leg, then you must beware. (It's a 50"s thang.) 🚧
Legen... Wait 4 It... Dary. LEGENDARY!🎉
She’s definitely underrated the talent was stacked back then late 90s-00s
@@justchillin9840 lol I saw THAT thang. Unlike Osaka , Tokyo! ...
Before Fergie, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga and now Taylor Swift.. there was Gwen Stefani!
Ahhh you lamb 👍✌️🤗
Fergie was popular at the same time as Gwen 2003-2007
There was Linda Perry! Lol...
....no doubt your right!😀
@@onlyme1875 ya but No Doubt was popular in the 90s long before Fergie
Who else is here after seeing Meg’s video ??? 🐍🐍🐍
Loved her since I was 16. I’m 44 now and still listen to her ❤2023
.
Keep listening to funky music!!🙂
on 2023 yes 2024
"What you waiting for?"
1:45 for the damn song to start
Thanks
Patience is a virtue!
Omg I choke when I read this😂
😂😂😂😂
And it is not even the complete version of the video.
Damn i miss this era. Gwen stefani, missy eliot, britney, etc.
I’d do anything to go back to those years
Same here! That era was the best ❤️
yeah, and Nelly Furtado same
Oh gawd, if those three had collab, it would've been beyond major!
Well Britney was destroyed thanks to paps
What you waiting for. Lol
This whole album was my childhood, born 1992
God i wish i was you.
I was your aage now when this waas released and i felt still young at heart and body.
Now my body feels old.
Enjoy your years ahead.im very jealous of the younger generation.
In my head i feel 20-thats whats so frustrating.
same..I was 12 years old when this banger came out!
It is one of those songs that never seems outdated.
"Born to blossom, bloom to perish"
Now that's genius lyrical work.
LagMasterSam what does it mean exactly? i have an idea but i’m not completely sure lol
@@bellab6794 According to Genius: ''Stefani acknowledges the repeated cycle we see of female popstars, such as Britney Spears or Lady Gaga, who are “born” to be “mega popstars”, but inevitably fade out of the public eye when their time is up.''
I would die over that
I would lick Fergies socks first. Hell to the yes! Leg end....
Hell yes it is!
I was 21 when this dropped. It hits way different when you’re 36.
I was 8 xD and i feel the same
I was 13-14
Yes me too...i'm almost 36 now...time flies...
Same, we’re similar age 😁
Danm right
She s running, singing, dancing in those heels in the same time. This whole performance is a piece of art.
Its frightening to realise this is 20 years old 😔
When Gwen Stefani debuted as a solo artist she NEVER imagined that every artist post her would try to copy her style. Her impact is literally everywhere now.
Wym
Lie
Facts
I agree with you. I'm seeing Katy Perry and Lady Gaga here.
@I despise straight men Madonna was literally over and considered "crappy" and "anti-cool" music until Confessions (released after Gwen's LAMB) The "sing-rapping" sounds nothing like Gwen or the kind of style that's a trend right now. If anything, Gwen did it first since the 90s with her reggae/ska songs and also in 2000 with her single "Ex-Girlfriend". Madonna was a big star in the 80s but don't act like she invented everything lol. Plus, no one cares about Madonna nowadays. Ps: Even Confessions was influenced by LAMB. It was Gwen (mixing a lot of genres) who made Pop interesting again. Madonna is the queen of pop but she would never be as cool as Gwen.
gwen stefanie is 50 years old now. i can't belive
Hell nah
Shit it's true 🤯
She hasn’t aged a day
and looks at 30 yo!
@@imagenation9840 And is still beautiful ❤️❤️.
Total forgot about this song! Remember playing this on just dance😭😩💛
I personally don't care what year you're listening to this considering people still listen to music written centuries ago and don't make a big deal about it. Just enjoy. All music is timeless.
"You know it all by heart why are you standing in one place"
Superb lyrics.
Ain't that the truth.
tic tac tic tac tic tac
"take a chance, you stupid h0"
she really said know your worth and go after your dreams 😊😂
this was literally a slap on my face
SAY IT! lol
You have NO IDEA how long i spent trying to work out the lyrics when i was a kid with no internet ;-;
No internet in 2004 WTF lol
KevinRstp
I got the internet in 2015 x_x lel
The song of the past! xD I tried to dance to this song while I was a kid and singing but the singing didnt even match the song xD I remember, wow this took me a long time to find this song and its 2017 ! Oops
Well I had the album and it had the lyrics typed out in the little booklet.
What were you waiting for?
Do you listen it in 2024 too?😉
Yes
same
Who is here after Megan's BOA?
As a young kid I didn't realize the importance of this song. Now I do.
Please explain
@@CarbonBeast Sometimes it takes getting older to realize how much you never knew about yourself. And I don't mean turning 90. I mean, in your 30s, for some people it is their 40s, you begin to see how much you COULD have done when you were younger. But you didn't. And sometimes you then feel like it might be too late. Because there is always a catch to what you want to do and where you want to be... and that catch is TIME. There is always a process to accomplish something, to become the person you thought you could be - or the person you never even thought of, but now you KNOW and now you feel discouraged because you have finally figured it out, but you just NEED MORE TIME. Well, this song... it helps to put our minds in the perspective of "it is NOT too late." That's it. Honestly, it is just that simple. And by that, I mean it is just that fucking complicated. Because when you get older, when you pass that 20s threshold of "I have infinity and beyond"... you complicate and you doubt yourself and you lose perspective. And then you lose hope. But this message - it is a reminder and a proper kick in the ass that we just gotta get the fuck out of that failure mindset! And do what we need to do , what we CAN STILL FUCKING DO, to make something of ourselves. RIGHT NOW. Not later. Not tomorrow. And goddammit, not fucking yesterday or fifteen years ago. Do. It. Now. Because we are all still super hot females and males and people (hot means driven! it means full of life and love!) and we have so much life within us to be human, and be great, and be ourselves... and we all matter. And we can all make a difference to whatever it is we need and want to. We just need to believe in ourselves. Fuck any haters and their criticism. You be you. You are human, you are amazing, and you fucking matter. So whatcha waiting for? Get off your ass and be the person you know you fucking are. We all support you. We are all in the same boat one day or another. xo Love and Respect to every person. 💖✌
@@hellokittychaos wow thanks alot. This is very good. Did you had a moment where you realized that for yourself and how old were you? What have you changed?
@@hellokittychaos never knew that before all I ever knew was this was such a belter she's right doe you want to do things but your always afraid that people will not like you even your friends and family and financially or yourself you will not be able to achieve it you'll be a faller
Yep, same here, about to hit 37, wow, took long time
This song is hyping me up as I start a shadow shift at a job after being 3 years unemployed. I was poes depressed but now I feel like things are changing for the better. Thank you God
💯👍
👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
This song just randomly reached its way out of the very core of my being and memories of great times.
I used to love this song as a kid, but listening now as an adult woman I only now actually understand what the song is about. So many women feel this, and hopefully hearing someone like Gwen Stefani sing about it really does make you feel less alone and less miserable.
After 11 years now i finally understand the greatness of this song
It’s actually 17 years old^^
@@gigiroxx17 yes, released in 2004
It's absolutly amazing
What were you waiting for?
I remember this track coming out and it not being that big of a deal. It's actually amazing. And you can hear it's influence in so many tracks that came after it. It would still sound new if it was released today.
Is this a song Gwen Stefani wrote to motivate herself to write a song?
Yea.
@Tobbe Häggberg your drunken ramblings speak to me.
@Tobbe Häggberg My only problem is, you're taking too long getting this spaceship of enlightenment off the ground. I'm already hitting the stratosphere and i can see heaven, but without your cosmic guidance I'm not sure the gatesof Heaven will accept my heathenistic, yet repenent soul.
@Tobbe Häggberg my bad, I thought you knew where we were going. I dont trust a speilbergian knowledge of the universe, seems a little unrealistic to me.
@Tobbe Häggberg WELL, i mean you got me there, how can i refuse. Lead the way captain!
Her best song ever. Has aged so well, this was way ahead of its time
Megan brought me back to nostalgia ahhhh #Boa I miss music like this
I completely forgot about how much she loves Japan and how she hired harajuku girls to be her back up dancers.
Nowadays it would be considered cultural appropriation.
She got over that phase
She has a song called Harajuku Girls as well
She talks about that harajuku girls all the album tho
@@JakobTennisMB And also called a weeb too you.
I can’t believe no one is mentioning this ICONIC LOOKS! Screams Galliano for Dior!!!!
Couture of course!
What do you think about her shoes?
I'm more interested in how heavely inspired it was by US Vogue's Alice editorial, that weird garden editorial from Meisel at VI and those are the obvious ones.
I think vivian
so true! it reminds me so much of juicy couture runway looks from the 2000s
Megan is about to give this song a second life
What? This Song was never not popular and its still played in Radio stations
@@juicycouturexo515 And how many of the new gen listen to the radio? It'll get a second life of discovery to those who might not know ND/Gwen
This song came out when I was 13/14 and I was hooked. I listened to it over and over again. And here I am, 20 years later, and as soon as I hear it again I’m taken back.
This song is so cleverly written. Pop stars today should learn from this.
I am literally studying this in my songwriting course right now.
@@raecameron8500 I'm curious how you gyus study it
Pop stars today didnt care about the messege of a song just throw bunch of swear words and show some a** on music video. Sad but it is what it is. This song is a gold.
Linda Perry song, isn't it?
Ggf
Shes still so beautiful...one of the most beautiful women EVER.
@@user-cf1vv6xv3y yes, thank you
Yeah she is, you're nice too if that pic is you.
So true.
thats true, she still looks so young
@@mattgosling2657 thank you kindly and indeed it is!
Gwen's style is so underrated she was so ahead of her time 😩 ❤
MEGAN IS A GENIUS
This song is the epitome of pop music. It has it all: the gimmicks, the catchy melody, the recognizable vocal fingerprint. Not only is it radio-friendly, it is also top notch in terms of production.
This was Gwen's era.
Plus Sweet Escape, Hollaback Girl, Rich Girl, etc.
All so good.
Yes, and the video - all these little symbols and stylish details, absolutely wonderful !! it's like modern art.
nicely put........you sound like a producer ...of good music/something artistic.......probably!
@Paul I miss pop like hers and 2000s Gaga
I like it because of the reasons that was stated in this youtube comment
I feel so sorry for all the people who have yet to rediscover this track.
My mum used to play this when I was younger when it first came out, in the last half year to year I added it to my playlist I mostly skipped it due to the intro and usually listening in my car and wanting to make the most out of my journey by listening to song that I love, recently I gave it a chance and I’m addicted to it, the emotions it conveys are very powerful

@@ChattyCinnamon .🤔😑🖕.
Danger Zone was also terrific. Wish a vdo would
have been made that was as good as this.
Ditto
Who’s listening in 2024???
🙋♀️
Gwen Stefani was not only ahead of everyone with her music, but she was also obsessed with Japanese culture and style before everyone else was too.
She really went all in back when. I don't think people even realized how much she impacted the reality we live in these days.
Love.Angel.Music.Baby is still IT.
It's hard to believe this song is 15 years old. I always liked this video because of the Alice in Wonderland theme.
2004 why is there computers in the video they had those back them
Same !!!!!! I am9
Computer's have existed since 1971.
@@magicslave3066 apparently they did
@@lupask They did no eay
This song is so 2004 but I love it. The 00s was the last era before social media blew up good times. Gwen had so many hits back then she was stunning and a class singer. This is so catchy and just came into my head lol.
thank you for bringing me back to my childhood Meg 😭🩷
No one is talking about the brilliant costumes and set...
Oh my god I l've always loved everything of this video!!!!
Yes, very Alice in Wonderland, I like it.

can we bring back music videos like this? We barely witness aesthetic like this type of music and video these days.
She is aesthetic genius.
+Satu Laukkanen she is!
Right!!! She's a beast.
Michi there ?!
I've heard too many people saying that Gwen never should've gone solo which I never understood because she's great even solo!
Unfortunately Ska never really hit mainstream, only Gwen!
I personally discovered Gwen and became a huge fan thanks to her solo career then discovered she was in band before that so yeah she definitely did good when she went solo because she's had far more exposure and success.
This definitely fit for Meg. Some of the lyrics felt like they were talking to her. Great use of a sample...
Who got here because they randomly thought of this song from just dance
it was on just dance lol back in the early 2000s
When i was a kid, my mom forbade me to watch this clip because of Gwen's.. emotional breathes :D
lmaoooo
It's funny because my mom would make me look away at heavy breathing lmao

Gwen Stefani literally had writers block when she came up with this song! Even with writers block she was still creative enough to write this very interesting song. Now that is what I call true Talent!

MEGAN YOU GENIUS
How original is Gwen Stefani. I love her.
claudio ezequiel piña silva , more original then Marilyn Manson is.
It may be but I do not like Marilyn Manson.
claudio ezequiel piña silva , yeah his fans are all assholes.
Trey Stephens I guess you mean the Marilyn Manson fans. I, particularly, do not find it original, I find it extravagant. Overacting and their songs are horrible. Sorry to vent me, but I'm not one of those who connect with artists that I do not like to put a "I do not like" but this case is the case to say it. I do not like The Queen either and I have never put a finger down because my way of saying I do not like it, is not even enter their videos.
More than gaga
