Back in high school and college my best friend Jimmy would play this almost every weekend when we were getting hammered or burning one. Good old days. Miss you Jimmy.
Who’s the girl in the big red hat @1:33 - 1:37 ? OH! THAT’S ME!!! 💃🏻 Looking back at old memories. This was a fun night shoot & a good song! Much love to all! ❤️🔥 God Bless!! 🦋
So. Storytime. My friend Jimmy was trying marijuana for the first time. We were listening to music via TH-cam on my big screen. I had put on this song to make fun of my friend. It was a version that had the lyrics in large white letters on a black screen. Only I got called out of the room, so I muted it for a moment with every intention to come back and put it on again once I came back and turn it up. Only I walk back in to find Jimmy sitting alone on the couch, his eyes wide in horror as he stared at the screen playing with no music on, just staring at the lyrics with his jaw hung open. I had to CALM HIM DOWN from how bad he was freaking out thinking that the TV was speaking to him. He thought maybe I was pulling a prank on him until I made him listen to it with the audio on. He was so messed up about it that I actually still feel a little bad to this day about doing that to a first timer. Jimmy did, in fact, get high that night. Maybe too high.
First time I heard this song was in elementary school; now it's getting more relatable in my late 20's. Cheers to life for all the live wires out there!

I’ve been informed that he wrote this song about a musician I knew a while back. Not sure if he’s still alive or not actually. I used to see Jimmy and his band play at a lot of jam nights in Kelowna. I believe his band was called “Reefer” if I’m not mistaken but can’t remember for sure. This was at least 15 years ago! I hope he’s doing okay
It's strange that this song and several of the other minor hits off this album are much less well known than 'Bad Day', considering they are pretty damn good.
@@ladycurve7 I would venture to say these songs are all better than the big hit. Weird. And 'Loves You Lately' from his next album, ironically titled 'Under the Radar', which is where this guy kinda flew.
@@squamish4244Just proves that having a hit is sometimes just pure luck and nothing to do with how good the song is. If radio 1 had kept playing other powters songs then people would become hooked and people would’ve bought the cd singles.
Daniel...thank you so much for this song... Now...I just want to buy a Jimney... Come on guys tonight let's jump on Jimny... he get's real high with the second generation ;)

This was a damn good album, very underrated.
The album was a hit back in the days here in Asia
My name is Jimmy and i was listening this at 6 years old… dad music ❤ now i listening this im 23 years old, memories… 💭
Y IS THIS NOT FAMOUS!!? Stupid modern radio - Underrated Daniel - he deserves to be huge!
It sounds like a hit which is weird. I think the radio chose to ignore it.

I'm lucky to know your songs, Powter. Really.
For the 1 million people who actually listen to this song; let's grab a bottle of chill beer and watch the sunset together.
After so many years, Jimmy still gets high. Great song.
Daniel Gets High too with some of those notes ;)
This is a really great song.
2022 and still listening to this masterpiece ❤️🥰

"Jimmy Gets High"
Jimmy you know, everybody hates you when you're living off rock 'n roll So you get high tonight And Jimmy you lied, I wonder if you ever get yourself back here alive So you get high tonight
'Cause you don't need nobody to make it on your own You dont need nobody you'd rather be alone So Jimmy gets high tonight And Jimmy gets high tonight I must confess, I'm a real live wire Jimmy you and me we get along a while Jimmy gets high tonight
Jimmy you lied, I'm hoping that soon maybe life it don't pass you by So Jimmy gets high tonight And Jimmy you know, everybody hates you when you're living off your rock 'n roll So you get high tonight
Cause you don't need nobody to make it on your own You don't need nobody you'd rather be alone So Jimmy gets high tonight And Jimmy gets high tonight I must confess, I'm a real life wired Jimmy you and me we get along a while Jimmy gets high tonight
I've been so confused And I just hope it all gets banned to you So Jimmy gets high tonight
I must confess, I'm a real life wired Jimmy you and me we get along a while So Jimmy gets high tonight
And I hope it'll be allright Jimmy gets high tonight And I hope it'll be allright
Jimmy you know, everybody hates you when youre living off your rock 'n roll So you get high
I’m a Jimmy that gets high. My anthem.
I don't know why his hats aren't more famous.
운동할 때 매일 들어요.

Important is the fact you got it... and english is easy to understand, thankfully, even from the ones who cant write it fluently ;) stay cool

its the small things in life that makes it worth living.
ahh youth.
no worries and a grownup to take care of you.
En plena cuarentena por el covid19, lo sigo escuchando otra vez!
In other words, Jimmy keeps getting high and his life isn't going anywhere.
Beautiful music..thanks Dan
