To echo someone else’s comment on here, I had a prescription opiate problem and didn’t die, I instead ended up in jail bc of it. My life was completely destroyed and to make matters worse, during that time I totally missed The Menzingers (and I’m from fkn South Philly 😂). That’s the beauty about music. You can find it at any point in your life. The Menzingers and Dave Hause spoke to 36yr old adult-me when 36yr old kid-me, needed it most. Punk rock did this for me when I was 14, again when I was 36 and it’s still doing it today at 45.
Every Menzinger song takes me back to my younger years for some reason. They're music is an automatic nostalgia trigger, resulting in emotional memories of the people I've left behind.
yeah..doesnt everyone of us have a "Julie from the Wonder-Bar"? The one that got away? I can remember mine pretty well, that´s probably why i love this song so much
It's so wild. I got to see them play In Manchester shortly before lockdown, and then I was singing along to them whilst driving from Cromer to Hunstanton, just this weekend. Both situations for my birthday. Life is fucking wild, weird and kinda coincidental. Still -- I fucking love this band.
How I wish to show these guys to my friend. But he passed away a few years ago. 27 There is so much love in this song and I never felt like this before, listening to MenzingersSongs. And there were a lot of bands and guys who really know what they are doing.. These guys just hit me, get me, fuck me, and mountain again 🙌
Lost in a picture frame The way our bodies used to behave The way we smiled in the moment Before they permanently froze But that was the old me and you When we were both lookers Lost in a picture frame The way my body used to behave The way I smiled in the moment Before it permanently froze But that was the old me I was such a looker in the old days You little Kerouac Always running like Dean and Sal Always waiting on a freight train Always looking for a story to tell But that was the old you You were such a looker in the old days Sha la la la Jersey girls are always total heartbreakers Julie from the Wonder Bar I still wonder where you are Cause I know the old you And you know the old me I was certain that I'd find her In the back of the diner In a cloud full of nicotine In a teenage memory That I hold till eternity Cause the future ain't coming for it
I might be in the minority here, but I love the gradual growth and progression of the Menzingers' albums. Every single one for me has been an improvement on the previous. This is a glimpse in what will surely be another favorite of mine.
I legitimately feel like every record they've released was the record that I needed to hear at time. As I've grown myself, they've continued to release albums that have matured with me. This one has been no exception.
I'm absolutely in love with this album. One if the few times I'm glad that I can say the evolution of a band is in everyone's best interest. Can't wait to see what else they can do!

What an absolutely beautiful song. Gives me goosebumps on each and every listen, still. Reminds me of a wonderful time in my life and someone I miss dearly each and every day.
Absolutely the best song. Quickly rising to be a favorite of mine. Yes, I’m new to the party. Just saw these guys in concert and fell in love all over again thanks to the Menzingers. ❤️ you guys are crazy talented!
been listening to this song on repeat since its release. lost love, lost youth, and memories etched in still photographs plastered to your "grownup fridge" set to the tune of an angsty punk ballad... oh, the years... where did they go? i just love everything about this song. can't wait for the new album. also liked the mention of "On the Road," my all time fave book.
Seeing The Menzingers has always been the best day of my year for the past 10 years. 2020 is going to different. Not seeing them this year will be the thing I missed most from the year. The menzos nerd mosh pit has the most love.
Awesome sauce from l.a california. This is the best. Truly. Thankyouverymuch I hear a little billy brag and roy Roy orbison..... And a bit of the old descendents. .
First time I heard Menzingers was in London in 2015, as they were opening for The Offspring in Brixton Academy, and I got totally blown away by their stage presence, especially the bald ginger glass wearign guitar guy, we was just getting crazy. Went through some of their stuff, and instantly fell in love with them. But this last studio release, is a real masterpiece, especially the first song Tellin Lies, then this one, and Charlie's Army, Lookers, and plenty of others, I can just listen to them over and over again, they are thsoe kind of "feel good" songs. Great band.
@@mrsd8401 Man, 2 years passed, they released Hello Exile last year in october. I have no words, Menzingers are just awesome. Oh yea, Alkaline Trio as well, shame that Matt kind of moves more towards Blink 182. I liked Blink 182, but I feel that they try too hard to stay the "cool teenage skate kids from the 90s", while they are in their 40s, nearly 50s. Not really good, last album was a flop.
I know, mate, I have "Hello Exile". My favourite song on it is "I Can't Stop Drinking". I also have "After The Party". They just get better and better, to be honest. Agreed. I'd rather Matt just focused on Trio from a selfish point of view. I don't like the modern Blink stuff at all. Still, when Trio do put out records, they still boss it, as "Is This Cursed?" proves. But yeah, spot on, mate
@Thisanawadee Cook love it. Menzingers were my last concert on 15th of February 2020, just couple of weeks before the first Lockdown, they played in O2 Kentish Town in London, thanks to them I discovered another awesome band - Spanish Love Songs, they opened for Menzingers, and they rocked. Now, after over 2 years, I am going on another concert in Roundhouse in London on 8th of October, and guess who :D The Menzingers :D Cant wait.
I had gotten tired of this song from replaying it so much prior to the new album; I have resound my love for the beauty. Sha la la to all the jersey girls.
This album is one of those that I've picked pieces of on TH-cam for months. Slowly (S L O W L Y) I discovered that it wasn't just individual songs, but this whole album is actual fucking gold. I've piecemeal'd albums on iTunes for years without buying one outright. Streak officially broken... Wow, @TheMenzingers. Just. Fucking. Wow.

Spending a higher percentage of GDP on your health system than other OECD countries, but getting much less? Talking about free trade and then imposing tariffs and giving farmers subsidies to prop up corn, leading to a glut of HFCS that's pushed on an already unhealthy population? I'm American, but sheeeit, we ain't perfect.
Been a fan since I decided to check out "On The Impossible Past" on a random recommendation. Keep up the good work fellas, it's like you get better with each album!

Me opiate addict aswel
This album just is Where I am in life right now. It's hard being an aging punk
feel you m8
Yep
29 year old this album resonates so well to me right now.
I'm with you brother
fuck yeah it is, but you find ways, and you stay grateful you're a little wilder than a lot of people your age
Every Menzinger song takes me back to my younger years for some reason. They're music is an automatic nostalgia trigger, resulting in emotional memories of the people I've left behind.
I think that is part of their appeal to me too.

Julie from the Wonder Bar
I still wonder where you are
Cause I know the old you

In a teenage memory
That I hold till eternity
Cause the future ain't coming for it

"Julie from the wonder bar i still wonder where you are" love it
I used to hang out in a bar called the “wonder bar” years ago...
Hey Mae, I think Brian Fallon is looking for you.
Asbury
Probably still working there lol
Wonderbar in Atlantic City?
I might be in the minority here, but I love the gradual growth and progression of the Menzingers' albums. Every single one for me has been an improvement on the previous. This is a glimpse in what will surely be another favorite of mine.
Pete M me too... it feels like your taste in music grew with the menzingers.
I legitimately feel like every record they've released was the record that I needed to hear at time. As I've grown myself, they've continued to release albums that have matured with me. This one has been no exception.
seriously glad I'm not alone in thinking this
Yeah this new one is fantastic.
I'm absolutely in love with this album. One if the few times I'm glad that I can say the evolution of a band is in everyone's best interest. Can't wait to see what else they can do!
This band just makes me happy. I don't have to argue they're "The best" this or that I just love listening.
It’s like if you got Bruce Springsteen and the Replacements forming a super band together; you got the Menzingers!
Dude for real! I’ve been saying The Clash mixed with Morrissey.
The Replacements? Ouch!
@@davidmiyamoto8928 ouch?? Best Band ever
Bruce, The Menzingers, The Movielife, Thursday, Saves the Day...all those bands. :)
the hook is so perfect. I play it over and over staring down my local highway.
"Julie from the wonder bar..i still wonder where you are"..damn who cant relate to that line?..heartstrings..

This song should have got a Grammy. Talk about underrated. Smh
I love the beginning so much. The voice is so clear and pure.
What an absolutely beautiful song. Gives me goosebumps on each and every listen, still. Reminds me of a wonderful time in my life and someone I miss dearly each and every day.
Same here. It's uncanny how much their music makes me nostalgic for times and people long past.
I’m 22 years old an I already feel this.. damn
Welcome to our aging reality
Same
Absolutely the best song. Quickly rising to be a favorite of mine. Yes, I’m new to the party. Just saw these guys in concert and fell in love all over again thanks to the Menzingers. ❤️ you guys are crazy talented!
Glad you found them honestly. They got me through some bad shit. They go hard asf
man its been around 5 years and im still here
"julie from the wonder bar, I still wonder where you are" is my favorite line to sing from this song.
Whoa...wait...did they just say
“You little Kerouac
Always running like Dean and Sal”?!?
New fave band!❤️
on the road!
been listening to this song on repeat since its release. lost love, lost youth, and memories etched in still photographs plastered to your "grownup fridge" set to the tune of an angsty punk ballad... oh, the years... where did they go? i just love everything about this song. can't wait for the new album. also liked the mention of "On the Road," my all time fave book.
The wonder bar in Asbury Park...love the jersey references in this album. Well done boys.
As a guy recently turned 30 I relate to every single song on this album, jeez it's like me and my gf wrote the entire thing! Major love for these guys
This album is gold.
Ребята, вы - просто голос моей юности. Слушая ваши песни начинаешь мечтать!
Sha la la la Jersey girls
Are always total heartbreakers
Julie from the Wonder Bar
Yes Asbury PARK but so true!
The way I smiled in the moment..
One of the best songs of 2017.
Seeing The Menzingers has always been the best day of my year for the past 10 years. 2020 is going to different. Not seeing them this year will be the thing I missed most from the year. The menzos nerd mosh pit has the most love.
I am thankful i finally saw them live a day before Australia went into lockdown. may be a long time before we see any American bands come down here.
these guys never make a bad songs!
Awesome sauce from l.a california. This is the best. Truly. Thankyouverymuch I hear a little billy brag and roy Roy orbison..... And a bit of the old descendents.

I had gotten tired of this song from replaying it so much prior to the new album; I have resound my love for the beauty. Sha la la to all the jersey girls.
Great song
Take me back to these days.
This was byfar the best song released in 2016. Disagree? Fight me.
I would say the album is one of the best of 2017 so far.
😂😂
i will fight you
i disagree because PUP's "the dream is over" album in 2016
Your boston accents showing 😂
Will love this song and band forever
At around 54 seconds the track came to life, was worth waiting for :)
I hate the intro but love the song
I was at that show at the Knitting Factory when they were filming this. Great times!!
one of those songs that will outlive the test of time!!! love these guys
Can't wait to see them in Houston this upcoming march. Haven't seen them since Fest last year in Gainesville Fl where I used to live.
You can tell all the guys in the band are best friends and love playing and making music together.
These guys and The Gaslight Anthem sound so similar in the best ways possible, I love it
Major Menzinger vibes coming from this track.
Great sound!
great song, great album, great band.
2017 seemed to be great year of music, but this album by far is the best one that year.
This song is really nice. please come to Japan
Should be a love button instead of a like... JS can't wait & pre-ordered!
Just found these guys nostalgic incarnations amen.
If yall could come to Portland Oregon this year would be perfect.
Really liking this record so far
These remind me of the swellers so much and I haven't got a problem with that. Their new album slays too!
Michael Crosby I miss The Swellers. 😢
JUST SAW THESE GUYS AN HOUR AGO! SUCH A GREAT FUCKING SHOW AS ALWAYS!!
underrated,,,, god they deserve more views....
Always come back to this video. Best punk rock band out right now. Boston was a blast boys. Come back pls :(
Such talent and awesomeness tho! Been repeatedly jamming this tune which led to having this stuck in my head
There playing a festival in NY. I am so pumped.
Goddamnit. Riding from MA through Scranton on the way to Lancaster with my ex it slays me listening to these dudes.
New album is killer!
agreed.
agreed! a very early contender for album of the year!
Timmy Miller still my fav album of the year after 3 months and i've listened to a bunch of new shit since
Crazy how this song makes me think way too much about exes I otherwise hadn't thought about in years.
great show, so much fun and such cool dudes
Saw these guys in the woodlands with the offspring and sublime. Never heard of them before. Absolutely love this shit.
this is excellent rock and roll
Great Song Menzingers!
Such a great song
Awesome sauce again from l.a california.
This band and album have took over my life the past year. 29 year old, where am I gonna go when my twenties are over? :(
Great lyrics. Great song

The Menzingers
Lyrics
Lost in a picture frame
The way our bodies used to behave
The way we smiled in the moment
Before they permanently froze
But that was the old me and you
When we were both lookers
Lost in a picture frame
The way my body used to behave
The way I smiled in the moment
Before it permanently froze
But that was the old me
I was such a looker in the old days
You little Kerouac
Always running like Dean and Sal
Always waiting on a freight train
Always looking for a story to tell
But that was the old you
You were such a looker in the old days
Sha la la la
Jersey girls are always total heartbreakers
Julie from the Wonder Bar
I still wonder where you are
Cause I know the old you
And you know the old me
I was certain that I'd find her
In the back of the diner
In a cloud full of nicotine
In a teenage memory
That I hold till eternity
Cause the future ain't coming for it
Sha la la la
Jersey girls are always total heartbreakers
Julie from the Wonder Bar
I still wonder where you are
Sha la la la
Jersey girls are always total heartbreakers

What an absolute fucking banger
haters go back to where ever you came from. this band literally lit a spark in me again
Preach.
The outro of this video is like the intro of REO Speedwagon's "Roll with the Changes" where they are getting pumped before they play live.
Trés cool, so American in a good way
Baruno Sardadi is there a bad way lol

I got a free 45 record with this song on it from my local record store, that's how I found you guys xD Great song and love your music!
Someone really like bass. We actually get to see one in the video
Goddamn such a great tune...I am a looker👆
Been a fan since I decided to check out "On The Impossible Past" on a random recommendation. Keep up the good work fellas, it's like you get better with each album!
this is really beautiful💕
This song usually makes my eyes sweat
Great Song! I'm glad you made a Video for it. Keep up the good work!
