I think about this music video a lot. There are just so many little moments that make it memorable. Whoever the actors and director are are outstanding; this is my idea of what a music video should be.
Kyle Thrash is really talented. Check out his videos for Map Change by Everytime I Die and Your Graduation by Modern Baseball. Some really amazing cinematography and story telling.
@@akingtonone Also No Halo by Sorority Noise
Yeah this music video is 10/10. Such a deep story with no dialogue. Makes me think about my ex. We would party way too much, fight constantly towards the end, but loved really hard.
@@akingtonone He did Your Graduation? Damn. I guess there's a good reason why I love this video so much!
Edit: Your Graduation is absolutely fucking amazing
I played this song on repeat the last night my brother was alive because he loved you guys. I think this song is forever going to mean something to me
I found out I had a brother I never knew about not long after I found this song
Yet another band I discovered through my kid....damn good.
That's beautiful man!
If you like this check out Spanish love songs. You and your boy should dig them 🤘
Your kid has a awesome taste in music
@@maxwelld23 dude.. thank you for the recommendation. Sick band 🤟
Nathemo just saw them live last weekend great show one of my recent favorites.
This makes me miss something I was never a part of
I know what you mean. It's perhaps something we always thought would happen, but never did. Being young and in love, and going on adventures. But life didn't turn out that way. But at least we have music and videos like this, to bring back those feelings we had when we were young.
lol. Ive never experienced love before.So fuck
yeak ik, we are nothing like them but we feel like we belong-*ed*
I’ve never experienced having a gf, let alone love. Lol
Vinay I couldn't find better words to describe it
The acting/directing in this video is better than most high budget films.... damn that was an amazing music video
Kyle Trash fucking rules
This night was great. They ended up playing a quick set after we finished up filming for the night. Menzingers in a living room is something I’ll never forget.
Guy who directed this vid needs a goddamn oscar..
Kyle Thrash has directed a lot of great music videos. Check out Sorority Noise - No Halo. That song and video are perfect.
@@amccoy6055 fxck yes! The video got me into that song.
like hell he does it’s garbage.
@@Lampshadeattack false
When a music video looks as the song sounds. And this is amazing
Jeffacake100 yes it really is
Two years later, on a specific day when I was listening to this song again and again, I just discovered that there is this video. And I could not agree more with you!
Your comment gave me a Seizure
I have lived this experience, and let me tell you: the bliss and ecstasy does not compare to the level of heart-destruction that occurs after it's all over. Be careful guys n gals.
Probably should have read this 9 months ago
ahh man where were you 2 years ago
Man its so hard to get trought it out alive! ):
Fuck
Especially when it goes on for 10 years and just ends abruptly without closure
It's been a long time since I've felt something watching a music video. That was awesome.
thelivingoneaz straight up man. very well done
thelivingoneaz, Agreed. I never had a video hit home like this one does
Ever seen that one PUP vid? Talk about a heartbreaker
Chisum Burnett came here after PUP :D
Feel the exact same way .
Man I partied with these guys over a decade ago at my singers house after they played a show with us in my town before they became huge. It's nice to see how far they've come since then.
Hell yeah, it must be cool to have known guys and a band like this. I can’t wait to see them come to my town in October
I still remember going to their shows in high school when they were just a local band. Its one the highlights of the year when they play their yearly show
all undeserved
But the real question is, did they stay to clean up…after the party? 😜
This song to me is about how important it is to be okay with being alone. Because if you can't be okay being alone with yourself, how will you be okay being alone with someone when everything else has stopped? During the silent moments, during the boring ones. When everyone else has left the party, and it's just the 2 of you, are you both strong enough individually and together that you have a great foundation? That you can sit through the silent or boring or still moments together and still feel just as happy. Or did you need the craziness and chaos of the party around you to keep you together? Because at the end of the day, when you're in a relationship, it comes down to just the 2 of you. Nothing else matters but how the 2 of you are together, separate from everything else.
That's a fucking beautiful interpretation of this song. Thank you for sharing in such detail. :)
Seems to me to be a straight love song, it's about how two people in love gravitate towards each other DESPITE the craziness of the party. The excitement (and ultimate shallowness) of the party is done, but he loves her beyond that.
@@dantepilgrim They are in love, but he loves himself more than he loves her.
Idk how but they just perfectly deciphered how "You don't care if anyone is watching" can mean two completely different things, 1:29 and 2:35 . Man. Thats crazy
I didn't even catch that. Great observation!
Editing
Wow. Great catch.
Woowww didn't even see that
Didn't even notice that. Great catch.
I wish all music videos were made by Kyle Thrash.
I was about to write this! This guy is fucking awesome!
Grindtesque AND Michael Parks Randa.
Who is Kyle thrash
@@Meg-Jagger The director of this video. He has also directed videos for Modern Baseball, Sorority Noise, Neck Deep, and other great bands.
im a music video freak. ive been obsessed with watching music video my whole life, and I watch them everyday.. this is my favorite one. its just so well done.
Nothing like this music video late at night while drinking a beer to remind you of a dysfunctionally manic relationship. The lows were frequent and the reason I ended things, but god dammmit the highs almost feel worth it on nights like this.
I hate her; I miss her.
I miss the highs and lows
MeTakingAStand ain’t that the fucking truth man.
MeTakingAStand my life in a nutshell
Whoa, I've never read something so relatable in my whole life. Shit dude.
I feel this with every ounce of my being. 💔
This band, God this band, just puts their finger on the pulse of a moment, a feeling, a time in our lives when things were there worst and the best all at the same time. More than likely we've all moved on from that moment where responsibility and life didn't get in the way and we were free to be whoever the fuck we wanted to be. But then a song like this hits the speakers and it all comes back. There's something special when music that can do that.
I'm an 'old' punk rocker from NJ. Played in bands and with bands my entire high school and college years. This band reminds me of those days. Fantastic nostalgia and a fantastic band.
It won't happen, but I want every song from this album to have a music video. Greg & Tom's storytelling is unmatched right now in punk rock. This video was everything I originally wanted and more. Props to these guys and Kyle Thrash!
Narratively, this could lead directly into a "Midwestern States" video and that would be just fine with me
"Bad Catholics" is also a fun song. Fuck it, just do one for each on the whole album.
Kyle Thrash is an excellent director
You obviously haven't heard of la dispute or defeater. These guys are good but ld and defeater are master's of the concept album
This video is on after a few hours of auto play and i came back to it. This is punk? Do they have more punk songs? Cause this sounds like it has a punk influence but nothing punk to me. Not saying it's bad, but punk?
I've watched this over 30 times and well I can't get over the song and music video, best music video I've seen in years.
Miles. Me too
.never gets old..
^^^
My marriage has been falling apart for a long time and every scene of this video feels like a biography. It hurts but it’s beautiful
Dude. :(
Same 🖤
The same here man
Been there... Hope you found a light at the end of the tunnel.
Divorce blows and rocks so I've learned
kyle thrash music videos are always the fucking best. especially when they're for amazing bands like the menzingers, holy shit!
Wouldn't be surprised if he ended up like Spike Jonze and was successful in feature films, his sense of narrative is incredible without dialogue and his visual style is really unique.
Hey buddy, I just posted a new song on my channel. It would be great if you reviewed it!
He has directed all video of modern baseball, he is amazing. Great music videos.
This is literally the 5000th time I've seen this song since its upload. Singing along to this song feels surreal.
Hands down best song off the album, maybe simply just their best song.
Nic Calvaresi On the album, probably, I do love Your Wild Years. Ever... Sunday Morning or Mexican Guitars in my opinion. But thats just me.
I agree. Best song by the band
what is so good about it???
Amazing song
The obituaries is thier best, however.
At least imho.
Still groovy af tho
Videos like this (and Kyle Thrash videos especially) always remind me that there are a million versions of a million stories happening everywhere around us. Mind blowing.
The feeling is called 'sonder'. It's exhilerating.
That guitar tone in the intro lets you know everything you need to know about how this song is gonna make you feel.
It's the little things my mind commits
To etch behind my eyelids
Like getting stoned when we wake up
Coffee grounds and coffee cups
Your silhouette in high top sneakers
And hardcore from laptop speakers
The classics to the more obscure
From Minor Threat to your old roommate's band
Like a kaleidoscope in vibrant hues
I navigate around your tattoos
Said you got that one on a whim when you were breaking up with him
And that Matryoshka Russian doll
That lines your shelf from big to small
What a way to start anew
To shed your skin and find the old you
Everybody wants to get famous
But you just want to dance in a basement
You don't care if anyone is watching
Just as long as you stay in motion
We put miles on these old jean jackets
Got caught up in the drunk conversations
But after the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you
With a new outlook on everything we see
From high upon this rooftop over South Philly
To the nights we lose our self control
From the sex, from the drugs, from the rock and roll
Everybody wants to get famous
But you just want to dance in a basement
You don't care if anyone is watching
Just as long as you stay in motion
We put miles on these old jean jackets
Got caught up in the drunk conversations
But after the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you
By you reciting the lyrics you make me feel as though you were the inspiration behind this song however music is art, and art is a reflection of society at the current time it's created so, why did you put all of the lyrics on here?
fuck. just seeing the lyrics after seeing them, still hits just as hard. thank you.
@@shottingham yeah!
Yeah this video is pretty amazing. It shows every emotion felt throughout a relationship - the fun, excitement, laughter, are all here. Then onto the fighting, crying, hating. Such a rollercoaster of emotions captured so well in this song and video. A+
What a beautiful love song.
first time in years a music video has made me feel something. This one touched my soul, it was a throwback to everything my current relationship has gone through in these 4 years I've been in it. Beautiful, and it adds extra meaning to the song, which is not an easy thing to do. Congrats, guys.
blinkMATIC same here. Astonishingly touching video
This band is New Found Glory for 90's kids that are almost 30 now.
Well said, I’ve always described them as if Bruce Springsteen grew up listening to The Clash.
Both the comment and the reply are spot fucking on
Damn that is exactly what I thought when I heard this song haha.
at one point in my life, this was so exact. i don't feel nostalgia, i feel dread that i won't go back...not from lack of trying, but from the bridges that faded away as everyone else grew up.
this
I love and relate so much to the story this song/video tells. Ive been in a couple of these amazingly disfunctional/codependent relationships. They are paradoxical in that from my experience the passion and companionship experienced compared to that of which most would call a "healthy" relationship is greatly unsurpassed. The inseperable attraction, the sex, comradery, usually drugs, reckless devotion, and what i call the "Bonnie and Clyde" or "Sid and Nancy" mentality are what make these relationships so intensely devoted yet highly destructive. For me memories of this type of relationship comprise equally the best and worst memories of my life. I think what happens is a rare phenomena when two rebel kindred spirits discover, come to understand and identify each others true nature. While this sounds ideal for any relationship the issue is the "rebel" side of their nature (for lack of a better word, character flaw would be innacurate of what im describing). These are characteristics and behaviors that when paired with another spirit with its own unique characteristic/behaviors tend to ideally balance each other out.
When the two aforementioned "kindred rebel spirits" meet these potentially damaging characteristics are embraced, brought to the forefront and exacerbated. Again, from my experience these two souls form a perfect storm of unflinching loyalty, unhealthy infatuation, lovedrunkeness, the melting of each of their individual needs and identities and more often than not at the very least borderline substance abuse tendencies. The merger described above often devolves from an intense unparalleled bond/romance to a codependent, drug riddled embodiment of chaos and debauchery. The end of which usually for me signaled a trip to rehab, a requisite changing of phone number/address and emotional scars which usually take me a couple years to move past. Dont get me wrong. Im not entirely denouncing this type of relationship. As i said before the love and connection i felt in these relationships is still to this very day incomparable and unmatched. I wouldnt trade that experience of having felt so intensely about and forging an unbreakable bond with another person for anything. Was it highly unhealthy behavior that ultimately ended in an equally intensive chaotic heartbroken dischord? Absolutely but experiencing this vast, complex range of feelings/emotions concurrently with someone else is what comprises the best parts of being human. Of course the destructive nature and woes that follow would comprise the other nature of being human. You either get burned by the fiery passion, learn from it and move on/heal or it consumes you and a departure in a fiery blaze of debauched, codependent glory is inevitable. I have personally experienced two such relationships. One sent me down a dark path where once passion and burning love reigned but were replaced by vengeful anger and spiteful indignation. I didnt understand what the saying "a thin line between love and hate" really meant until embarking on that darkest of journeys. The second aforedescribed scenario culminated in a trip to rehab followed by a still to this day ongoing process of self rediscovery and emotional healing. Sorry for the longwinded sappy verbal diarrhea, but seeing this video dredged up intentionally buried feelings. I felt it necessary for cathartic ends to tell my story of life,love,sex,violence and heroin as I relate it to this song/video.
I would love to hear similar stories from others. When im feeling robotic from the work/eat/playiflucky/sleep cycle i watch this video and take a stroll down debauched memory lane to remind me im still human and was fortunate to know the absolute best and the infernally worse the human experience has to offer. #noregrets #theanarchyandtheecstacy # lovemolotovsandrevolution
Dude.....thank you so much for this, it was beautifully written and I could relate to every single part of it. I hope you're still sober and doing well! (former opiate addict myself)
Man you described my world from 2015-2021 like nothing ive heard another person say before. It was every extreme of the human experience and i wouldnt ever undo it. Im thankful for these feelings, the experience, the pain even. These relationships are only comparable to addiction. The highs are an ecstasy, someone who sees you wholeheartedly as if it were written in the stars for you to join. The lows are hell, crushing and suffocating, and desperate for the high to return. The highs have left me with this void craving, and the darkest times have fucked me up like nothing ever could. Such a paradox of love and hate, trust and deception, compassion and cruelty. Its something years later i struggle to make sense out of. I focus on healthy bonds and stability, and attempt to ignore and bury the visceral memory of the emotions. But as it turns out, i come back to songs like this and the little devil in my brain likes to drag the waters and surface them. Wish you continued healing man.
I'm sure half the people watching this video had already imagined most of it while listening to the song. So good. Gave me chills!
how?
GONNA SEE THESE GUYS AGAIN!!!! WOOOOOO!!!
This is the first music video in years that made me feel something special. Not good, not bad, but something different. What a masterpiece.
This looks like a season recap for Shameless. I dig it.
One of the most underrated bands in the history of everything
yes.
This is my favorite song in the last 10 years
This video reminds me of the series Skins. The parties, drugs, alcohol, romance, struggle,... I love it
London Bullet Official I fucking love skins (the uk version)
This song is so amazing. Theres an undoubtable melancholy yet a sense of happiness in chaos. Beyond happy I was introduced to this.
99% of people watching this are thinking of someone’s they miss more then they’d like to admit.
Hey
Shut
Up
You
Right
Nail on the head, man.
Id appreciate it if you didn't call me out like that
I think this is my favorite music video.
I don't think any pair of music and video will ever surpass this.
Saw them with PUP and Cayetana on their European Tour! I just wanted to see PUP but was suprised by how good this band is. One of the best concerts iv'e been to and amazing line up
One of the most relatable, heart wrenching songs AND videos I've listened to and have seen in forever. Thanks guys!
you have awful taste. i’m embarrassed for you.
The scenes 1:29 and 2:35 Both describe how "You don't care if anyone is watching" can blatantly mean two different things. You don't care if anyone watches us have sex, or fight.
Whoever directed this, you're a god damn talented dude
Trent Thomas Kyle Thrash, he's the man. Check out his video Vomit for Microwave
Check out his video for Every Time I Die’s song “Map Change”. Absolutely amazing
@@robjgolde3221 Not surprising it's the Map Change dude. Same vibe.
Sorority Noise - No Halo, another Kyle Thrash masterpiece.
I’m pretty sure that he did “I don’t wanna be an asshole anymore” as well.
Modern Baseball - Your Graduation is another good one from him.
@@amccoy6055 Fuck what a resume, No Halo is amazing too.
Like peering into the last 7 years of my life. Goodbye, old kid.
Time for lots of growth, alone.
And sober.
To my old friend Mac, I hope you still get to dance in a basement here and there. Thanks for being a friend and an example. Love you man.
Man. This song fucking jams. The second I watch the video, it completely changes the vibe. Fine line between head banging and crying.
This is my song for my husband, we had a lot of parties back in the day but it was always just us the morning after. This music video was my late teens/early twenties, honestly didn't know if we'd make it out alive..
i don't think i can ever hear this song without crying. what i've lost. what is gone.
it's ok she didn't stay. she just left a lot of scars that will never heal.
it's ok my friends moved back home. the cops still barge into our old haunts on noise complaints no one made.
the only regret is that i let it all go to my head.
tazmon122 fuck me. That one hit hard.
Wow. Just, wow.
Beautiful
Thanks for sharing. This is what makes us human
that's exactly, EXACTLY what i feel
I get it. We were young. I was 21, she was 19. It was absolute CHAOS. But within that chaos, was something absolutely fucking beautiful.
Amen.
This comment is gold.
@@geminimoon4012 right?
This comment captures us in every way.
Love this
Incredible video all around, but imo the best shot is when the 2nd chorus comes in when the lead actress leans down to scream into the camera then it jumps to her lifting her head up off of the bar. Amazing stuff.
saw them last week, this song hit so hard live!
Thats so awesome! I am going to see them in Cinci on the 6th next month. Im glad to see they are feeling better again. They got sick and had to reschedule the Cincinatti show
These guys are both amazing actors.
This video used to make me miss my ex; I recently realized how nice stability and comfort are.
Why have I only just found these guys on my pop punk travels... rocking 🤘
Never watched such a fitting and absolutely beautiful video to go with hearing the song for the first time.
To the guy who directed this MV, you should be proud man. We're proud of you.
Well. shit.
I was right, the whole album is fucking amazing.
My favourite "love song". And "Strangers Forever" is my favourite "break-up song".
Always keep coming back to this song..moving on sux wish the party was over already.
The more I listen to this song the more it hits home to life
Late 2019? Anyone else on this masterpiece?
2020 here and i can never get enough
This is like a trailer for a Netflix series with a dope soundtrack. Man I'd watch the fuck out of that
This video is an ode for allworking class couples 🖤
One of my favorite songs and music videos of all time
I wish I found The Menzingers early in my younger years !!!! You guys Rock , keep it up . Thanks for great tunes
Wow! They won me over. I'm a fan
Album of the year. Song of the year. Video of the year. Band of the year
I listen to this song every time I miss her and I can't help crying inside, I light a cigarette and just look at the night sky knowing as the only consolation that the Lord at some point will let me be back in his arms and she in mine. ..
It's so hard...
Boyfriend sent this to me one day while we were fighting. Probably one of my favorite songs now, reminded me that in the grand scheme there are more important things to worry about then the little stuff. (More music videos for this album pls!)
I would be lying if i said this didn't make my day
This reminds me of the hundreds of rock shows I went to.... Vans warped tour was always insane!!!
cant begin to describe how amazing this song is,possibly this will go down as their best track (IMO) and for once its so nice to see a video that matches the song.I love how it tells a
story of
love,loss,hardship....ah I better stop now....too many teenage memories flooding back,cheers!
This video almost makes me miss being in a dysfunctional relationship.
Jonnie Five HAHAHAHHSHDJDLSJAHAAHHAAHAHAHHAHAHAHA right in the feels dude
gotta love the stress of being in pain everyday, but being in love with that feeling and person to much to give it up u TIL it takes you to rock bottom
Hahahahahaha my thoughts exactly.
Legit AF
Jonnie Five the highs are highs And those lows are low.
But those highs are addicting and the sex is fire. Haven’t been the same relationship wise, since. It’s a drug
Went thru a break up 2 years ago with my longest relationship. Made me start playing music and skating again. Hearing it now reminds me why i started again
I had a lump in my throat watching this - so so good!
This song has been hitting me tough recently...
I've been with my partner for 14 years, and we both have separate lives and other relationships. We've been through so much together, and no matter what happens, we are still ride or die for each other. Its such a special feeling.
After the party, it's me and you....
Just discovered this band, and I gotta say it's growing on me. It's got a hot water music kinda sound to it
I lost my best friend this summer. This was our favourite song. Cherish your loved ones.
Kyle thrash is the king of making bad ass punk music videos
Its so shitty that the loves like this we experience usually end up backfiring on us in the worst way. Thanks Menzingers for writing this song
This song makes my heart hurt in a good way. Perfect.
Hit me in the heart. I know how this feels and it sucks. Amazing song
For those whos feelin so emotional about that incredible music vídeo, lifes just an adventure wich no one gets out alive. Keep that in your mind, do what you want to do, be kind to people, win money, be free, stop feeling guilty, listen to those songs, chill. I wish the BEST to ALL of you.
This is amazing, gotta say. Also, the video/story reminds me of Shameless.
Lived this when we had a shitty one bedroom apartment. Nothing matters when you have each other.
This may well be one of the best songs I've ever heard. The video makes me feel something but so does the actual audio. I'm so in love with this!
This is the greatest song to ever be written, recorded, and played out.
Goddamn, Menzingers. I've definitely been there.
this makes me miss not having a care in the world and just having reckless fun with friends
honestly the best music video ever
Amazing. No words. Can't wait to see them live at Groezrock!!!
The quick part at 2:15 where she looks at the food being made, instead of her boyfriend, felt so real. Looking at anything else to avoid what's in front of you, is such a big part of destructive relationships. The direction for this video was amazing.
dead on though with the picture painted in my head when i first heard this song....love it can't wait for vegas
hurts everytime i watch it. hits too close to home. always tearing up when i listen to this song.
Glad TH-cam sent me this great band 🤘🔮 it's awesome
am i the only one who listens to the album almost everyday? it means a lot to me, and i'm still 23 😂
DihStyle69 23 and look 30
I'm 24 and look 16
if I was a woman I'd be happy
but wtf man hahah
I guess of I make it to 80 I'll look 30
Nanana Balahaha i look older now that i shaved my hair and grew a beard. before that i used to look a looooot younger just like you. i still act like a kid tho, that will probably last till i die xd
I listen to the album every single day. I listen to it at night. By far favorite song off the entire album.
I listen to it every damn day! For over a year straight now!
@DihStyle69
Yes, you are.
