311 - Prisoner (Bonus Music Video)

[@lilbits5329]

This song is criminally underrated.

[@Michael_Gombos]

The whole album was.

[@Nope-sq6dv]

Every music video on KZbin is underrated.

[@mcgeeev]

Agreed. This entire album is. Should be a top 10 album of allllll fkn time

311 is criminally underrated!

[@elleoriol1419]

This band is so underrated! I loved this and the blue album.

Yes

[@larrydavid4924]

CDs were out at that time hahah.. great track

[@justinhuges987]

My big step brother used to jam these guys before they got big, and this is the song I remembered hearing the most coming from his room. We had so much more in common than we knew back then, both of us turned out to be skaters, musicians, stoners for a little while when we were teenagers at least, and huge 311 fans for life. We were only step bros for a couple of years, but damage done 😎

[@laurisaarinen1126]

Lol i'm also a 311 superfan, drummer and i started skating again since stopping as a teen. Never was a stoner though but always been into the "stoner culture" in other ways...

[@russ109]

What’s funny is back in the day my friends always considered 311 to be too light. but I always liked them no matter what they said, and they really stood the test of time with being an incredible talented band

[@persephoneflamethrower]

[@xavierevan123]

Listen to this song at 3am in the morning in a hot tub. Look up at the dark nightmarish blue sky and hear the echoes from Nick and Dougs voices

[@sagittarius_a_starr]

Dedicated fan since 1997--when I was 10 yrs old. Been to as many shows as came to my area... I've been carrying the torch alone for so long....

[@IgobacktothestyleIcamefrom311]

Keep the faith bro

[@kind2311]

I love that they structured this song around the 1980's "Stalag Riddim" electronic reggae beat.

Amen

[@rogueprince1341]

I wish them and sublime would've toured together. That would've been a badass show to catch. Well, they still can since Brad's son is now the lead singer.

Thank You 311! may your music live on for eternity!

[@jenniferjeremiah5446]

Seeing these guys 2 times over the next 5 days! Can't get enough of them right now. Their music holds up!

[@tachycardia2224]

Which shows did you end up going to?

[@Rob_Cary]

Best music video they ever made, hands down. The way they integrated Chad, Tim and PNut into the video, the imagery, and Nick and SA not making me feel so bad about my attempts at dance moves...just all of it. Love it haha girl is gorgeous too. Transistor was my musical awakening, grassroots was my mind's awakening and the rest is just history. I hope this band resolves it's inner conflicts and gives us more magic in a live setting for years to come. The world needs 311.

[@bronsondeliac2625]

Right on 🥂

[@tetsuo311ontwitch5]

You know there are certain songs out there that just resonate. The emotions that flow through my body and my soul listening to this song puts my mind at a certain state of calmness relaxing and happiness true music 311 thank you guys so much for bringing such unique harmonies to the mind. Love you guys for life thank you for everyone that put their heart and soul into this band and the creation of this video.

[@meiling6937]

Are we all aware of how extremely ahead of their time they really were? Like these lyrics are 🔥🔥🔥

[@mcmacshalfilya]

What does that mean to be ahead of their time? Is that really even possible?

I was going to say ahead of its time. But that didn't really make sense in this case.

[@michaelfrazia4569]

yep...I used to listen to this album everyday on a long commute to work. just put me in a good headspace instead of being in the here and now while sitting in traffic. great lyrics...always felt this song should have been a bigger hit than it was. love it to this day ..still listen while working out

[@ibmsst]

One of the best songs ever made, no I’m not over exaggerating. ❤️ pure intelligence.

[@davidbish4180]

I saw these cats 20 years ago twice in New Orleans for 311 day. Man they were great they played 3+ hours. Just awesome. Hard to believe 20 years has passed. God Bless.

[@manicmurph]

Great vocal melodies, great riffs! What more could you ask for? Probably one of the top 5 bands of the 90s.

[@dougmackenzie7183]

[@Tennessee_Plumbing]

This is the album that propelled me into a lifelong fan of 311.... Transistor is the best album in my opinion, that may be because 'transistor' was the first album of 311 i ever bought...but for me, this album is in my top 10 of all time, for sure

Investigate 311

[@Pelendralaar94]

311 is a very important number for the elite. In the rona declaration case it's also fitting to Revelation 3:11. They definately are into the occult most of their cover art and lyrics suggest that.

[@spaziani42]

Remove the vocals, and this is a hidden track to the original Spyro The Dragon game.

[@braescanlon1829]

What do you guys think this song is about?

[@brittanysharpe3691]

Our souls being trapped in the material world…. And the forces that control society want us to stay here.. but the girl knows there’s more and she wants to ascend into higher consciousness to break free from this earth prison.

[@ominous-omnipresent-they]

Okay, what's with the old dudes?

[@Pelendralaar94]

They represent the influence of Saturn which is related to time and rigid rules. Time is an integral part of our imprisonment in this earthly dimension. Without it people couldn't be restrained and tortured as well as they currently are. The perception of time as a lineal irreversible flow makes us easily controllable, together with many illusionary layers of what is sold to us as "reality" we fail to find the exit. The old men are also depicted in the fantasy story "Momo" where they are also described as the "grey gentlemen" or "men in grey". It's not really a fantasy story it rather shows us true facettes of the world we live in which is a very limiting and evil place that is ruled by entities that use humans for energy and create the world they desire because they can't do it by themselves.

It's about our world that is the black cube matrix and the woman who wants to escape it (of course mushrooms help with realizing that this world is a fake prison dimension, that's why they are shown in the video).
