Just came home a few hours ago from seeing The Offspring at the White River Amphitheater in Auburn, WA. Became a fan in 1994 and will be a fan for as long as I live. They still rock after all these years!

If they are running with this song only months ago for their current tour, that means I’ve got a great chance of hearing it when they come to aus in December!!!! Great to hear!
You don't realise how dark it is until you realise it and the video just adds to the ending so perfectly. The symbolism, it unravels from the start but you don't get it until that one click in your brain. There can never be a darker Offspring song.
This song is incredible poetry. It evokes such a great despair with chilling imagery and the video compliments it so well, but the song on its own is multilayered. There is a double/triple meaning every few lines.
Noodles and Dexter still don't sound like they haven't missed a beat with this song guitar riff wise, and lyricism Dexter is still on top of his game with this song and a good bit of this album, but I can say if I had to listen to a new greatest hits album by The Offspring I'd want to hear this on it for sure....especially if this got remixed or extended...it is just so epic
Just hits different doesn’t it… there’s a couple lyrics in there that just drag the listener straight into the song and straight into the feel good of it
Not gonna lie, imma heavy Chief Keef fan and i been rocking with them, since 2010-2011!!! They have some of the deepest songs, and they deliver it in such a head banging way!
This song is wicked awesome I remember this song back in 2008 and loved it.....still do...it has an early Offspring feeling to it but I don't know if that is just me thinking that or not
Totally makes sense! The Offspring uses the same progression for a bunch of their punkier hits, and it is the same one they use here. Self Esteem, The Kids Aren't Alright, and so forth
Que curioso, estoy en 2023 y tu comentario sale que fue hecho hace 2 años, por lo tanto fue en 2021, lo que significa que la escuchaste en 2006 o antes. Sin embargo, la canción fue lanzada al público el 6 de mayo de 2008. Esto podría significar dos cosas: Una, estás mintiendo o exagerando. La otra, realmente escuchaste una canción en ese momento, encontraste esta y la confundiste. Si eso último llega a ser el caso, entonces me temo que tu canción sigue perdida
@@theultumzero8491 define ok, friend. But more so now than two months ago. Way off grid doing my body, mind and soul much good. Still don't trust the system. I'm miles from a cell tower or router.
Why were most of the videos deleted in the first place? Could somebody explain me why tge biggest hits' videos are either reuploaded now or completely gone?
mark wright It has though. Before Vietnam, war was just ordinary people fighting for their countries. Most wanted nothing more than to be worthy of the task before them and to make it home to their families. This is still somewhat true, but there have been a lot of changes. The Vietnam war saw a new level of fanaticism, where the Chinese forces were happy to make it as ugly as possible to break Americas will to fight. And it worked. Later, when America abandoned it's middle eastern allies, religious fanatics took over. So, many military conflicts in that region are no longer fought between ordinary people, but fanatics who can not be broken so must be killed, and superbly trained professional soldiers who are very good at killing them (This is 1 reason I'm an atheist, all religions survive because they demand conformity, if the religion is the state it gives those in power total authority, making slaves of the people they were meant to serve and dehumanizing outsiders). (To be clear, I'm talking about all conflicts between all nations who are fighting against or who are a religions state.)
Well, Chinese forces didn't fight in Vietnam, they (like the Sowjet Union) sent weapons and some military advisers and some non-military personel (repair crews for streets and railway tracks and so on). The Vietnam war (like the 2nd World War) was extremely dirty, no side got out clean (US troops were extremely good to commit war crimes, too). Also fanatism has always been part of war, suicide attacks aren't a new phenomenon, they already happened during the time of the Roman empire. Or take the berserkers, who also were mentioned (by other names) in imperial Roman times. Warriors so high that they didn't feel pain or fear. Oh, and another thing: Religious fanatics didn't take over when the US abandoned it's middle eastern allies in the 1980s, those religious fanatics were (and in some cases like Saudi Arabia still are) the middle eastern allies. For example, the Taliban could only win against the Sovjet Union in Afghanistan because they were supported by the USA. But I'd still say war does change. It has become more brutal and more damaging, because the weapons evolved, and therefore war has become more industrialized. Also war has become less personal, because it is now possible to kill enemy soldiers from greater distances, they don't even have to be on the same continent any more, if drones are used.
i used to own their 3 first albums as a young teen got tired of them dumb i sold the albums, now i listen to them daily plus whatever else i play during the day
If there's a darker Offspring song, I haven't hear it. It's not clear where the song is going until the very end, and once you get it, wow. He tells you he's out of control from the start, but where it ends, yikes.
This song is perfection
One of the most underrated videos of the band.
this song is really underrated its so good
@@MrJ0mmy true that
I wanna thumbs up this. But it's at 69 right now. I don't wanna ruin 3 years of progress.
If there ever was Progressive Punk (as in Progressive Rock), this would be the emblematic master piece!
It's about the war and how the poor americans citizens are a sacrifice for money but in the end that's what they want.
This video was made for a contest. The band had their fans make a video for them. They chose a video and the maker won ten grand. He also got this as the official video.
GODrumming i should have known that contest so at least i could give a sketch of my concept
This was the official Offspring video before the competition
Man this really is a piece of history
Wow cool video
Feel like the second one is cooler

I remember in the 90s being a kid listening to theses guys and imagine many many years later the offspring still lives. Amazing
I just saw them two nights ago and they still sound fucking great!
@@ckayakdudeSame. Two days ago, as well. They are tremendous.
I cant get over this song, it's just too good.
I am the one
Camouflage and guns
Risk my life
To keep my people from harm
Authority
Vested in me
I sacrifice
With my brothers in arms
Through this doorway
What's on the other side
Never knowing
Exactly what I'll find
Locked and loaded
Voices screaming
Let's go!
Come on do it
Here we go!
Oh, take a life
Ten others may live
Oh, that's just the way it goes
Oh, shut my eyes
It hammers in my head
Where it'll end
Nobody knows
Oh, take a life
Ten others may live
Oh, that's just the way it goes
It's playing over and over in my head
Where it'll end
Nobody knows
Stay the course
Reasonable force
I believe
I serve a greater good
Smoke and dust
Enemies are crushed
Nothing left
Where a man once stood
Through this doorway
What's on the other side
Never knowing
Exactly what I'll find
Locked and loaded
Voices screaming
Let's go!
But I'm just doing what I'm told
Oh, take a life
Ten others may live
Oh, that's just the way it goes
Oh, shut my eyes
It hammers in my head
Where it'll end
Nobody knows
Oh, take this life
Ten others may live
Oh, that's just the way it goes
It's playing over and over in my head
Where it begins
And where it'll end
Nobody knows
Bang, bang, it hammers in my head
Bang, bang, it hammers in my head
Bang, bang, it hammers in my head
In my head, in my head
Yeah, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I fear no evil for Thou art with me
Locked and loaded
Gonna find my truth
Now I'm busting through
All hell breaks loose
And you can all hide behind your desks now
And you can cry, 'teacher come help me!'
Through you all
My aim is true!
My
My aim is true!
My aim is true

A simulation played out by the willing and oblivious. Perhaps... Or maybe just nothing 😐
Saw Offspring in San Diego a few days ago! Amazing performance with this song and all their other hits

Their music is characterized by lyrical melodies.

Awesomely Great Video And Song!!
This and a few disturbed songs are straight up battle songs.
Man this takes me back to rock band days still imo the best song from them but sad and dark
This song is wicked awesome

Conheci offspring vendo esse videoclip na extinta mtv brasil em 2008, bons tempos!
Best intro to a song ever
my childhood memories was back with this video.
Man! The days when the Offspring were in their zenith of the Sun!
I LOVE OFFSPRING 🤘🏼
swietny videoclip oraz super piosenka oraz wspanialy zespol the offspring
Just an awesome song, really makes you think of all the people who served and how they have to live a normal life after serving. Sad
The Offspring makes me feel old. I'm 24 now and I started to listen when I was 15. Seems that it was just yesterday. The band has a teen style itself.
I'm 35 and I was 9 when I discovered them :o
@@spmtl9432 I'm pretty much the same,saw them live what feels like a couple of years ago...turns out it's almost 15 years man
Pfft I'm 30 and have listened to them since I was a toddler. Haha
Lol I started listening to them when I was around 24 and now I'm 49.
61 and still rocking bruv!
Hammer geile Musik 💪
