I was 12 then, now I'm 27. Such good times back then and I didn't even realize it. Btw, this remains one of the oldest videos on TH-cam still. 2006 was when youtube was still in its infancy
15 years after NHL 07 and I still love this song The days of creating my Under 21 Leagues with this soundtrack, God damn take me back to those simulation days 😪
Haha I used to love this band. Found my old iPod filled with them and The Academy Is, New Found Glory, Taking Back Sunday, and other bands. Needless to say I am reliving my adolescence. :]
turning 32 this year and i will never stop listening to cutie. this has such a instillment in my soul. so many memories that just one cute is what we aim for song can bring me back too..
There's still a lot of good music! And even more so back when you commented this! Pierce the Veil dropped Misadventures in '16 and Sleeping With Sirens gave us Madness in '15 and both of these albums are both good and heavily inspired by noughties emo! And you can still find sooo many of these influences in pop too. TOP are MCR fans, even covered Cancer, and their original lyrics criticise the govts in a similar way to Green Day; Billie Eilish sings in a style that Brand New and P!aTD used really well at certain points, etc Aaaand around 2016 P!aTD, FOB, and Gerard dropped some good bops too. Not the same style as when they were young, but still quite damn good And now MCR is back too, like we could ask for more. And for those who don't like MCR, American Football are back too. Aaaaaand let's not forget that this is the *only* age when 10-to-30-year-old music is still relevant, the only age when bands both as young as Green Day or even Guns'n'Roses are still touring with their decades old hits. Sure, maybe more good music was made 14 years ago, but why fret? Between TH-cam, Spotify, and Soundcloud, there's literally nothing stopping you from enjoying millions of songs from any year between 500bc and 2020
i love this song, its so bright and cheerful, with a really carefree tone. the beach setting also helps the fast-paced lifestyle the people are portrayed to have. despite the social problems they encounter, the band and the show people move on, and balance their difficulties with positives.
I actually found my old Cute is what we aim for CD last year and I immediately cried bc I felt old bc this was damn near 20 years ago. 32 and still in love with this album

IKR? Songs like this, Paramore "Pressure" was another good hit, Mariana's Trench "Say Anything", Faber Drive "Second Chance", Hedley "On my own" - all around the same years ('06/'07'08)
I was watching TMNT in science class and this song was playing. My teacher said "Ugh I hate this song". A few months later it came up on IHeartRadio and now I feel special.
I saw these guys last year on the Same Old Blood Rush With A New Touch 10th anniversary tour. They played the entire album and closed with Practice Makes Perfect. They put on an excellent show. :)
Cush King Because society has threw it in a pit, covered it in fuel and left it to simmer and die. They killed it of because its actual talent and doesnt give all th rich kids a chance to be in the thing that they call "charts"
Adrienne Ryan yep. my childhood days. i remember alotta stuff i did. when i was in preschool, my brother introduced me to the music of green day, blink182, foo fighters, narivarna, led zeplin, guns n roses, pink floyd, acdc, blues brothers, bruce springsteene, black sabbeth, ozzy, the black keys, daft punk, kiss and more. and ive been listening to them and alot and other bands ever since. he bought me abounch of posters, plus he gave me some of his old posters for some space on his wall, and hung em in my room. he has posters all over his room too. we both have some framed beatles comics hanging in our rooms too. how much you think the beatles comics are worth? make you best guess.
Remember my early childhood i was 9 years old in 2007 when i heard this song in my moms car on the way to my first "date" and it boosted my confidence so much.
Tina G protect this love is frickin amazing. i think vicky has such a beautiful voice!! i love the cobra songs she sings in like new edition and like you said disaster boy
falloutsanti yeah dude! protect this love is so catchy! and i love duet songs where the singers play off each other you know? it just works really well. cobras 4 life

alliyyy there is still good music. There are currently 2 amazing bands, if not more. The bands are as follows:
The Maine
Anarbor

I cant get over the amount of hair flips..
its fabulous
Literally the move by most swishy haired men in the early 00s. (Justin Beiber only copied them xD)
It's FABULOUS
That's all I can see now 😂😂
Don't judge you weren't there. Lol
15 years ago I was 15 years old, at the very beginning of my emo phase. 15 years later here I am still rocking this one.
NHL 2007 soundtrack
love this so much
14 years later, still top
This is my favorite genre of music
Yeahhh!!!!
Still loving Cute Is What We Aim For, Love this song and Fourth drink.
These were the best times of my life I miss being young man
i love this song, its so bright and cheerful, with a really carefree tone. the beach setting also helps the fast-paced lifestyle the people are portrayed to have. despite the social problems they encounter, the band and the show people move on, and balance their difficulties with positives.
I am happy Shaant is still singing, he has far too much talent to have just stopped. I love the sound of his voice so much.
Best NHL 07 Song
Damn, NHL 07 had the best soundtrack
I was thinking the same thing nhl 07 for the ps2
+Makenzy how about you fuck off
EXACTLY!!!
So true.
True
damn listening to it after 10 years and still loving it
Reading this comment 8 years after it was posted and 18 years after this video came out 😅 damn
Does anyone else think of being at a huge beach party in 2006 with this band playing live? I know I do!
Fucking yess
yessss
In 2021, post Covid comments like this hit differently lol
I think of NHL 07 personally lol
@@jrb363 yeah unforchunetly
It’s 2021 and I still know every single word to this song! 🤘🏽
good grief I was 13 when i first heard this... back when MySpace was still a thing. yeah...
+Vanessa O'Neill i was 13 too! i feel so damn old thinking about it
+kyeoptawerk93 lmao me too, that cursed age though.
+Vanessa O'Neill remeber xanga
+Vanessa O'Neill I was also 13 back in the day... Haha! Don't forget about Bebo!
+Vanessa O'Neill Same, all of these songs remind me of high school, when it was easier to find music I liked.
I actually found my old Cute is what we aim for CD last year and I immediately cried bc I felt old bc this was damn near 20 years ago. 32 and still in love with this album
One of the best soundtracks in NHL 07! ♥
I first heard this song in 7th grade. Im now graduated, and a mother. And i STILL love it. They will never die
the greatest band of our generation, in my opinion
This song has been stuck in my head all day. Finally giving in.
That’s why I’m here 😆😆
Same
Everyone but Shaant has such normal names I just noticed. And such a amazing song even after so many years.
I love this pre-chorus. Has a lot of energy
Thumbs up if NHL 07 brought you here!
I have played 06 to 2015 and 07 and 08 had the 2 best playlists in the franchise
trgmcYT 04 was excellent as well.
06 and 07 soundtracks... hell yes
And look at what we've got now... ouch. Awesome soundtrack
This band’s second album ROTATION was a total masterpiece. Every song is good. Never understood why they didn’t become bigger
agreed
Shaant (singer) was a nightmare to work with and he had an alcohol problem.
@@anthonydavis899 that explains it
love the chorus: "Drama doesn't follow me, It rides on my back, I may be ugly ..but they sure love to stare."
Still after all of these years this song is AMAZING!
I like pop punk like this more than whats going around right now.
Even if this isnt pop punk, this is what IT SHOULD BE LIKE.
I'll take this over Man Overboard, Modern Baseball, etc any day.
EpsilonX Modern Baseball is the shit. I chose not to choose i like both new and old school ha! :D
Anthony Brown
If you like it that's cool, I just personally really can't find any enjoyment from bands like that lol
EpsilonX it's ok we all have something defective in our lives in your case it's your ears i guess...
Anthony Brown Oh man, you got me. You're so clever I can't handle it
I REMEMBER THAT GIRL THAT COMENTED REQUESTING LYRICS AFTER SO MANY YEARS, WHERE IS HER COMMENT?

I'm surprised he doesn't get whiplash from how many times he flips his hair XD Love ya Shaant!
I love this album so much it’s insane
He is gorgeous! I saw them in concert and his voice is like angelic live! It was the most amazing thing EVER!
🧛🏻♂️

I remember hearing this song on TMNT MOVIE
that background guitar during the chorus and ending, as simple as it sounds, just sounds sooo awesome. So chill. Love this.
This band has really good music videos and songs. I love all there songs and hope to see them live someday.
I wish I'd known about the music I listen to now when I was younger, would've been awesome
+Awkward Little Duck I feel you, man.
Winged Halo check out the band Anarbor
Holy shit 16 years ago I started listening to them
This was the BEST YEAR for music when I was a kid! Ackkkkkk perfection, musically and stylistically!!
IKR? Songs like this, Paramore "Pressure" was another good hit, Mariana's Trench "Say Anything", Faber Drive "Second Chance", Hedley "On my own" - all around the same years ('06/'07'08)
AUG 2024 ANYONE❣️ BRINGS BACK THE OLD DAYS😁
I can't even begin to describe how much I fuckin love them. Shaant's voice is PERFECT
This was my myspace song for awhile back in 06 lol
Bcomes This was my song this past summer :)
I was watching TMNT in science class and this song was playing. My teacher said "Ugh I hate this song". A few months later it came up on IHeartRadio and now I feel special.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I love this throw back
why arent bans still making music without the computer generated sounds. i miss this sound so much
Cush King Because society has threw it in a pit, covered it in fuel and left it to simmer and die. They killed it of because its actual talent and doesnt give all th rich kids a chance to be in the thing that they call "charts"
I love rock but I hate people that diss electronic music. if you listen past edm, you'll see not electronic is the same. 😡
Cush King I think there are a few that don’t use the computer sounds if I am not mistaken:
The Maine
Anarbor
There are, check out Sailing Camp
I was a whopping 14 years old when this came out lol defonitly brings back some memories
TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES 2007 CASEY & APRIL 😍
Best bands I've heard in awhile this whole album is all respects
He's changed so much over the years.
He doesn't even have his long hair anymore
I miss this band!
lol. things aren't like this anymore. miss it
Such a simpler time
theo wismer tell me bout it
that comment was written during simpler times...
Oh god that was 7 years ago what is time even
Thats it! Im letting my hair grow
Me too, I'm gonna relax it and THEN I'm going to let it grow
"I may be ugly, but they sure love to stare" LOVE IT!!!!
I cannot believe its been this long.. As a wee emo kid back in 2006 this is only nostalgia
His hair flips in every direction, but never right onto my face. WtfFFFFFFFF????????
My god. I feel like I'm 16 haha. These guys were so emo they could barely walk. They were my heroes.
Yes, I'm 26 now.
Nhl 07, this shit is classic...
We miss you Rick!
Ouch
It's bizarre how you can not listen to a song for 10+ years then come back to it & know all the words instantly. Fuck, this makes me feel old
memories from my freshman year of high school >:3
Sigh... 2015 emo here wishing to be in 2006....
I know how you feel
+Aimy x we're in the hipster douche bag era, emo's and scene kids aren't cool anymore.
+Brady jenkins I don't care if it's cool I just want more emos 😂 or atleast a time when emo was normal, im so emoless in my eyeliner filled world!
+Aimy x You and me both
+Aimy x ex emo here
i still think emo hair is the most beautiful thing
this is what the early 2000s looked like take me back
Adrienne Ryan 2003 was a sunny year in my memory for some reason
Mirnes Trto Me too, although I was a small child back then. Basically all my memories from 2003 are going to parks with my dad.
Adrienne Ryan yep. my childhood days. i remember alotta stuff i did. when i was in preschool, my brother introduced me to the music of green day, blink182, foo fighters, narivarna, led zeplin, guns n roses, pink floyd, acdc, blues brothers, bruce springsteene, black sabbeth, ozzy, the black keys, daft punk, kiss and more. and ive been listening to them and alot and other bands ever since. he bought me abounch of posters, plus he gave me some of his old posters for some space on his wall, and hung em in my room. he has posters all over his room too. we both have some framed beatles comics hanging in our rooms too.
how much you think the beatles comics are worth?
make you best guess.
I was 12 when this came out and I literally thought I was going to marry Shaant at some point in life haha
I feel old man, I was 22. I still remember when Shaant was in a ska band called Cherry Bing.
come to buffalo, you still can haha he's a bartender at a local venue now
mynameisjulie16 Omg 😸 he probably gets harassed so much
mynameisjulie16 lol aww I just moved from buffalo
Thats so sad to hear. That dude used to be a god amongst teenagers filled with angst.
Ahhh, the sweet feeling of nostalgia.
Hair flip is insane
Take me back to 2006 please 😭
Who else wrote "drama doesn't follow me, it rides on my back" as their fb status a time or two...
Back when all I wanted was a phone.Oh the memories
Remember my early childhood i was 9 years old in 2007 when i heard this song in my moms car on the way to my first "date" and it boosted my confidence so much.
Garrett1240 Proudly so, homophobic bitch
YOOOO IT HIT 18 YEARS OLD THIS SONG IS NOW AN ADULT

PeachCheeks i genuinely thought i was the only one
Nope. 2020.
2020

those hair flips tho
I remember when I saw them live and Shaant actually dances like that all the time when he sings and flips his hair every second. So nostalgic. :')
Love you guys still so much! Wish Shaant would do an acoustic solo concert
I've loved this song since my emo phase like two years ago, but I just recently got into CIWWAF. They're soooo amazing.

I remember being in 9th grade watching this, my friend and I making a bet on how many times he flipped his hair just in this video lol
How many times does he do it lol
