This video was on a VHS tape of other Christian rock videos; this one was my favorite but for the life of me I couldn't remember it until I searched "Skillet 2000" and I couldn't believe I found it!!
the 90s were the start of the Gothic rock and Industrial movement. which is still going on today. hence why John is dressed like he is and the way his hair was. It was industrial......

I’m not even Christian cause fuck that, but I do really like this song even all these years later. I was forced into church and had no say in my life. Oh well. Great song though.
@chwparker I agree. They were almost on level with bands like Orgy or Stabbing Westward. Timing was off. The Christian music industry wasnt ready for this, if you ask me...
I never really “looked” at John Cooper like that but hot mama he is fine in this video especially with his 90s hair😭 I never realized how nice lookin he was when he was younger 😅
For those that weren't born yet, the black and neon green color scheme was everywhere in the late 90s/early 00s after the Matrix was released.
no, the borg preceed the matrix by several years
@@michaelkeith3308 lol.
I love seeing the evolution of this band. They're so amazing!
back when they was industrial prob one of the best christian bands out there :)
who else misses this sound of Skillet?
Me but I love them for all their music
I do because I like more up beat sounding rock. I am not sure why they switch to alt metal.
This is honestly the best album in my opinion.
It’s a good album, but there’s other people that don’t like it
This was the Alien Youth days wasn’t it?
Never mind, the Invincible days.
i have had this song stuck in my head multiple times over the years and im so glad i now know the artist and song name. Skillet is Awesome!
The last time I heard this song might have been before you even posted this, but I could still hum to the chorus
This song and video scream the late 90s!!!
In the year 2000 Skillet is making a second debut is still a bop! 😏
This video is so 90s but man does it bring back memories!! I love this song. :)
U r very gorgeous
Early 2000s nostalgia in full effect! Commenting in 2021.
still one of the best skillet songs ever mmhmm
90s Justin Timberlake: my hair looks the most like a cup of noodles
90s John Cooper: *hold my best kept secret*
Man this is the good stuff, pre-comatose stuff.
The moment you realize that your favorite band is older than you,..,
John cooper going from blonde hair and skinny to black hair and musicler with tattoos
О да...

JOHN’S HAIRRRR❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ He was so dang young
If you would like to hear a more recent recording, they have this song on their Comatose Comes Alive CD/DVD set! :)
God damn the nostalgia of this. I use to love this song.
Old but gold... c*:
the 90s were the start of the Gothic rock and Industrial movement. which is still going on today. hence why John is dressed like he is and the way his hair was. It was industrial......
Goth rock started in the 80s and industrial music dates all the way back to the mid-70s
20 years ago. Wow, I'm getting old.
This is what John looked like when I met him at a Virgin Megastore. Man, I'm old!
How did that go?
This was awesome
I just love skillet

This song is talking about Jesus christ, not our potential as humans. Lol
I’m not even Christian cause fuck that, but I do really like this song even all these years later. I was forced into church and had no say in my life. Oh well. Great song though.

This was when Skillet was the best Christian band Ever.

@@Ikerrealss no para nada
LA MEJOR CANCIÓN DE SKILLET
Si :3
Si amo esta banda .... pero nunca vienen aki a mi pais Peru :(

When you look at the people in the music video, you can see they didn't record this earlier than second half of 1999 :)
they were wearing the matrix look 😎
When I was a teenager I was a panhead, a die-hard skillet fan. I guess at age 34 I am still a panhead.
it's 2012 and it's my first time to watch this song!
It's 2021 and it's my 1st time hearing this song
2022 now and people still here. Skillet is so good
Cool! Love it!
why is this, like... my theme song right now
Cause this song is totally epic
@chwparker I agree. They were almost on level with bands like Orgy or Stabbing Westward. Timing was off. The Christian music industry wasnt ready for this, if you ask me...
@skilletmusic The Bestest!! 😉😎⚡💥💯🎯💜👊🙌👍🎶🎸🎹
Good Stuff !!!
His hair used to be Amazing! Now it's modern Rocker Look! Still cool though!
No alpha male. No beard. Just keyboards and good times.
I never really “looked” at John Cooper like that but hot mama he is fine in this video especially with his 90s hair😭 I never realized how nice lookin he was when he was younger 😅
This skillet was amazing too!
epic dance
HD, huh?
Wow......this was a WHILE ago!
@Michelleiscul This is Skillet back in 2000. I'm not sure if it's weirder to see John with his hair like this or the way he looked back in '96.
well, when I commented on this video (a freakin long time ago) it said it was from 1996 so yeah..
yep
How Am I suppose to recognise from how they look that this wasn't from later 1999 ? -.-
1996! that's a time ago thumbs up if you like him better now ;)
I Haven't heard this song in years okay I love you big time goodnight
Were they on MTV at the time?
WOOWWW this is old
Omg his hair!
Skillet REALLY should have stayed with this sound. They were so much better back then.
yyyyyyyyea.... I stopped reading after Nickleback. Close, but you're on your own on that one
John a lo backstreet boy
Who's still watching in 2023?
In 2024

I think John looked better with blond hair.
@JazMehiar jupp, it`s John:)

@Gimliownz 2000*

Not weird. Why do you think Skillet was weird before?
