This whole album is so great. So underrated.

[@SolSkinn]

So underrated! I appreciate it more now than I did then.

[@joecrafted]

One of my favs from the late-90s. This song and "I Will buy a New Life" always on my playlist.

[@rjmeza3096]

as a lyricist, in the storyteller vein, art is extremely underrated, easily the 3rd best of his era only overshadowed by Eddie and Kurt, victim of timing

[@garrett4299]

The band in general are underrated.

[@theyrecousins]

White men in the black suits? Dude, such a good song

[@clodge5196]

This song still gets to me. That pain will never leave.

[@Tuesdays_Gone]

That’s a heartbreaking song, and that whole album is great.

[@sombergirl2886]

The singer wrote this song cuz it happened to him when he was growing up. I grew up in the same situation & unfortunately my kids are going thru it too but I didn't want my kids to be around drugs so I broke up with their dad that was 5 years ago I struggle as a single mom but I'm gonna do the best I can for them

[@Mrrossthaboss2000]

you made the same choice my then 19 year old mother made. The world doesnt do enough to appreciate mothers like you, my life is so much better ten it would have been had i grown up around drugs.

[@sombergirl2886]

@@Mrrossthaboss2000 thank you for the kind words. I hope you are doing well & hope this year will be great for you!!!

u did the right thing and that’s take courage and strength on your end. a poor father who is around and able to do harm can be just as damaging as an absentee father. i have experienced this. pls trust yourself. from the little ive heard i would trust u. best of luck to you!

[@toddbrewer6515]

My father was extremely abusive when I was growing up, but this stong still always spoke to me.

[@musicwalkmanws]

Me too me too

[@jeCktHeReal]

that's cuz your father was abusive because of your mother, it had nothing do with you, just got caught between the fight of the two. It is unfortunate but that's what happens when men and women mess around when are they not supposed to do.

[@dustyb58]

Ah, So Much for the Afterglow. One of the 11 CDs I bought for a penny through Columbia House.

[@sombergirl2886]

Oh I remember ordering cd's from Columbia House I loved it esp when it was around a holiday or when they had specials you could get cd's extremely cheap

[@christinaFaith84]

And you still owe money. Me too. Lol

[@maryreilly5092]

Yup!

[@Morkennick]

Try the songs “Wonderful” and “I will buy you a new life” by them. Very emotional

[@nine-dogs]

"Wonderful" is a powerful song. Chokes me up every time.

[@trumphatesyou]

@@nine-dogs And so many people dont listen! They dont get it! "Fire Maple Song" is their best but "Loser Makes Good." Is close

[@lorettagross7069]

"I will never be safe, I will never be sane. I will always be wierd inside, I will always be lame." These lyrics are a punch in the chest and devastate my wounded parts because they're also my truth. "Now I am a grown man with a child of my own, and I swear I'm not gonna let her know all the pain I have known!" These lyrics hit me as a parent, but give me some hope for my son.

[@berniemac3696]

My friend , the choice is yours. Remain a victim and pass the pain down, or be an overcomer and not pass on. I'm sorry this happened to you. Everyone in life is either a victim or an overcomer.

[@Linus76]

oh man, those 2 lines in particular. That feeling of just something in you is broken, not right, not normal. weird. lame. And that powerful force in me to make sure my babies never ever feel that.

[@shawnlovering1841]

I cried the whole time. I appreciate you and you deserve to be happy.

[@brits24]

My parents divorced when I was only 6 months old and later my dad took my mom to court and told the judge he wanted custody of my brother, but not me. Life can definitely deal some “unfair” hands. I’m lucky to have an exceptional mother and my brother is the best big brother a sister could ask for and one of my best friends, so I can’t complain. I’m not a bitter person and definitely don’t let this define who I am, but dang if this song doesn’t hit home a little (for lots of people I’m sure).

[@bellabear653]

He will live with that for his life. Don't make it your burden.

[@Franckdatank]

Did you expect him to take both kids from her?

[@stevenl.9737]

First CD I owned in the AMAZING late 90s! This CD has a bunch of cool songs. I still remember most of them.

[@smorlan5828]

loved this group back in the 90's and YES TY for adding the mom's who also leaves..as mine did i was raised by a single father..love this song and ty for ur awesome reaction

[@garylindsey5174]

Love their song "Santa Monica"

[@peggyraimondi250]

I really like Everclear. This song,,,,so powerful I play it loud! Because my daddy gave a name and he walked away! I was a poor white kid in a black neighborhood too! From your face,I can tell it touched you too.

[@SSArt98]

My Dad gave me away, without a name... _53 years later, I don't know why and that's why I still cry._

[@matthawkins8880]

The lyric is “Daddy gave me a name, and than he walked away.”

[@SSArt98]

@@matthawkins8880 Read my comment again. _I know the words._ (It's a play on words: He gave ME away without his NAME)

[@bluedragon4]

I still listen to this song. It's a great story telling song. This is the lead singers story. His dad left when he was 5 and they had to move to a rough neighborhood. His 12 year old brother died from a heroin overdose. Then when he was 15 his girlfriend committed suicide. Sad story

[@ahhwe-any7434]

I just looked that up to see if it was true. Otherwise I would've blocked u for being a prick

[@thebobby-verse8919]

My father passed in ‘94 and the first time I heard this song it kicked me HARD. It felt as if someone had looked over my shoulder picked out SO many moments of my life then shared them with the world even that line about the birthday card. And now I AM a grown man with a wife and child of my own and I do swear I’m not gonna let’em know all the pain I’ve known.

[@windso878]

This is heavier than the most metal song

[@supercheese905]

lmao bruh

[@daisho13]

Haven't heard this in ages. Still makes me cry thinking about my dad. Damn it. Great song though, and awesome reaction as always, India. Stay well.

[@MrGrifter123]

My dad barely acknowledges me... Never new him till I was like 8 or 9. He has other kids and pays more attention to them than he ever did me. This song has always screwed my head up especially when I was younger.

[@oldcrow6752]

I saw the title and was like "Oh she's gonna be sad."

[@amypalfrey2446]

My father left when I was 7 years old. As I've gotten older I have decided to see things from a different perspective. Knowing the kind of life he has led and the kind of person he was for most of his life, the best thing he ever did for my brother and I was leave and stay away. Yes, it caused a lot of emotional pain and problems but I genuinely think it was from a place of love and not selfishness.

[@trosell2010]

I saw your reaction and at least I know I am not alone when I hear this song. Will always bring a tear to my eye. The part where he says I will never feel safe , I will never be sane inside..really hits me hard.

[@barrypheby6218]

Very Sad sorry to say it happen's a lot, and causes so much pain. Can still see it in your eye's lovely lady.

[@bellabear653]

Love your name India. My father checked out mentally due to ptsd from Vietnam. Then checked out physically years later, I don't even know what triggered it he was a great father when I was very young. Sucks his family paid for a war that wasn't worth fighting years later.

[@Jesse93z]

I always love your videos. I was a kid when this song came out. Loved it then and love it now. Everclear is a good band that spoke to a generation of youth who felt ostracized by the routine of every day life.

[@chrisbeaty3572]

This song kills me everytime

[@lewistasso8866]

Preach it, India! I always loved Everclear and these songs. They were very deep, welcome to the real world, songs that would gut you. However, that real. If I remember correctly., the lead singer had a very hard childhood coming from a broken family.

[@osagiee.guobadia-secondytc4624]

This music video was so sad that even the father should at least, take care of his son of how he is doing while growing up to become an adult, just like his father. BTW, does anyone know that the little kid (who is age 10) is an actor from "Disney's Even Stevens" also known as 'Beans'?

[@sageofsquirrels111]

Oh man, I remember this song. Sweet sweater, very fitting for the certain brand of nostalgia this track takes me back to as well. :)

[@harriotteworthington3147]

Daddy stayed solidly and actively in my life after the divorce. I’ve always felt quite blessed by this. I took care of him the last 5+ years of his life, and it was a golden time. I’m still missing him 19 years after his death- a far better sorrow than the alternative.

[@yelnickmcwawa5858]

In your face everyone who relate to this! I guess?

[@harriotteworthington3147]

@@yelnickmcwawa5858 no, I'm not one to throw crap in anyone's face. I was trying to express that the pain and sorrow that I STILL feel through the death of my beloved could never be as deep as I would feel had it been from a life of abandonment. I certainly do not lack empathy! And having gratitude in my heart does not mean that my life has been easy. Quite the opposite.

[@Squig911]

Great song! I’m digging the tapestry behind you as well.

[@Cybrphunk84]

criminally underrated band one of my favorite albums "why I don't believe in God" the last official track is my fav (there's a secret track "hating you for Christmas"). Saw them live at Bradley University In my home town of Peoria, IL the show was killer and after the show, they were cool as shit. They all ran to the bus and the bass player mooned us lol. Then they came back out and kicked it with us about 50 some kids and just hung out and signed stuff. They signed my ticket stub and my friend's shoe. One of the best nights of when I was younger.

[@christophergreathouse5326]

my father was in the navy, so he spent a lot of time away and he died when i was 19. so this song always gets to me. a very underrated band, one hit wonder video is so good.

[@labonitapz]

Everclear has many hits

[@mik0430]

not a one hit wonder (more like at least 3-4)

[@peterjackson6011]

Everclear's breakup songs are legendary. For the "I'm happy we're done" feel, check out "Hater." For the "I'm so sorry I did this to you" feel, check out "Complacent" and "The Man Who Broke His Own Heart."

[@grounddodger3212]

That Alice in Wonderland picture behind you; amazing!! Between this song and that picture; great taste ;)

[@tompilkington8708]

This song still makes me tear up. Thank you India for this reaction.

[@Slyfier155]

When you said "some moms just up and leave too" I just started bawling bc both my parents left but at different points in my life

[@SG-tv5jy]

5:23 This is so powerful. Break the cycle and be the man your Dad should have been for you.

[@randomando1346]

First CD I ever bought, at 11 years old. Wore my portable CD player out! Still one of my favorite albums.

[@rutssy]

Love this song. Thanks for reacting to it!!!

[@chrishowell199]

My favorite song of theirs. Thank you.

[@davidandronicomusic]

Loved your reaction to this powerful song.

[@blister9366]

India is an empath for sure!

[@dmitrykarkov4747]

One line describes my father, the next line describes me. This pain has been in my family for generations. Now, unfortunately I’ve passed it to my daughter. But I’m not making the same mistake with my son. I’ve learned a lot and I’ll never leave my beautiful family. I have to set aside a couple hours to listen to this because it effects me so much. I can’t listen to this without breaking down in tears.

[@WickedKingLycoan]

As the divorced father of two wonderful children. I know that I don’t ever want them to feel this pain. Just because my ex and I can’t be in a relationship, doesn’t mean that I have to make them ever question the love from their mother or I. They always have a home. They are always loved, accepted, supported.

[@BasedKenniff]

This song hit different foreal, i love how you show emotion in your videos, godbless

[@Bekka_Noyb]

♥ Everclear. Powerful song!

[@allenwerner4977]

I just subscribed today and I'm working my way back through your reactions, but as soon as I heard Tracy Chapman in your intro and the pain in your eyes watching this video, I was hooked. I look forward to seeing more! ❤️

[@metalphobos3632]

Great vid. My buddies and I listened to this album so much in the late 90s. The buddy who originally got me into the band always had problems with his dad. Hes one of my best friends today and has been for over 25 years. I always felt like this song represented his life so much and it always made me feel for him. Funny thing is that hes one of my most successful and hard working friends to this day. Everclear are so underrated its crazy.

[@ncman071]

I love your videos! You are so genuine

[@CC-xq7xk]

This one hit me. I appreciate you a lot. Thank you for doing these.

[@dreamerdoes_is_love8986]

I watched this before I watched the actual music video and wow this reaction made me cry, but in a good releasing kind of way, thank you for posting

[@ptlovefit]

That's so beautiful India I really feel this and it's beautiful the way he refuses to hurt his kids now in fact maybe this makes him a better dad!! My dad did not leave but he tourchored me till the day I left home. Don't know which would be better for me But I am better because I know I won't ever hurt anyone like that

[@dbernardo7226]

I am sorry you went through something so hurtful ... love you!

[@summercates7212]

My Mother left when I was one. My daughters will never know that pain.

[@felixsantos9672]

Good video. You can see the emotion in your face as you follow the lyrics and video. Thats what peoole want when they watch reaction videos. Its like your re-living the emotion of the song again.

[@DarkAngel1985Mike]

I’m 39 and still feel the pain,it never goes away

[@JamesAcrossAmerica]

Well spoken. Your reaction is exactly how I feel about my dad. He named me after himself then abandoned me

[@racsis3504]

Love this song I can relate sometime he can learn from the mistakes and you can start over but the past can still hurt if you never address it #Facts❤🌹❤

[@Brendo2186]

Love your shirt in this!

[@aquemeni1979]

I’m writing this before I see your reaction but I know you’re gonna feel this one

[@boingo69]

Ya know, I have heard this song hundreds of times over time. But watching you react to this actually brought me to tears today. I really enjoyed this video.

[@chrisitl]

EVERCLEAR IS THE BEST!! I have always loved this band since i was a kid, i grew up in a happy home, but this has always been one of my favorite bands, BUT now i have a child with my husband. My husband grew up so different. His dad left when he was 4, he doesn't know his dad at all anymore. Every time i listen to this song when i have the cd in, i always think of my husband because i know he would never do the same as his dad to me or our daughter, and for that i love him so much.

[@reprieve53]

Another great band from my homesate of Oregon!

[@MadMattInc1]

I still live with my family, and I swear my father feels like he might as well have check out a long time ago.

[@RRRR-mi6pn]

Great song with great lyrics , so underrated

[@melloyellogsxr]

That's an awesome poster!

[@apww4109]

More Everclear please!!!!

[@trumphatesyou]

"Songs from an American Movie Volume1." is one of the best 90's albums

[@thecoogs]

So good in concert and Art so supremely talented and deep. God I miss the 90s

[@nando19751]

Holy Shite your hair is soooooooooooo AWESOME!

[@gregorybyrne8420]

Great song!

[@clarkholton461]

You should do Johnny Cash "A boy named Sue" same story told from the son's perspective.

[@ericluttinger6546]

Great drums, great lyrics. I forgot about this song.

[@ediomondon7672]

Nothing to do with the video but India you are sooooo fiiiiiiine

[@pleasehelp2446]

My dad left when I was 13, I saw him for 1 day a week until I was 19. He and I never formed a strong relationship personally. My little sister was 9 and he spent most of his time with her because she didn't understand. I would go to my friend's house on the weekend to play videogames we couldn't afford and get food that my mom couldn't pay for. When I was 19 he bought me a very old used car that I didn't know how to drive cause it was stick shift. I taught myself how to drive it and I still have it.

[@davidcarl2113]

Santa Monica still stuck in my head from back in the day lol.

[@heat4yoass]

This was a very bittersweet song. Still gives me feels whenever I hear that song.

[@AdrianDeVore]

Check out "Everything to Everyone" which was another one by Everclear.

[@lestatsluv317]

They were such a great band!

[@BillionSix]

I always liked the song "Santa Monica"

[@robjay3850]

Good one!!

[@screamingpeace956]

This song hits deep and hard

[@psadoug]

powerful song.

[@jaceygardenwray3413]

This song makes me cry every time

[@poptya]

So Much For The Afterglow was one of my most played CDs growing up

[@micheledrummond9438]

Can relate my Dad was a dead beat Dad! He’s on his fourth wife! Reminds me of someone he voted for

[@legionkahn]

So Much For The Afterglow is a great song and album.

[@jailerofjustice]

Love Everclear their lyrics in that album talks about real stuff, very emotional experience.

[@jasoncaldwell5627]

One of the best rock albums ever made. You can listen to it from start to finish and never think of skipping a track.

[@aevi09]

right in the feels

[@maryreilly5092]

I always cry when I hear this.

[@estellesmith57]

At least he had good memories of his dad..

[@MrMarvymiller]

I cry everytime I hear this song😢

[@cano21]

Moms are great, but kids need Dads too.

[@brandi_with_an_i]

Everclear is one of those bands that I could sing every word of every album if my life depended on it. They got me through some really tough times growing up in the 90s. And yes, Art Alexakis (Alex-aw-kis) did write the song as he did most of the songs Everclear ever performed. Such an underrated band. Definitely miss the Everclear days of Craig Montoya and Greg Eklund. Classic.

[@FightingIrish327]

Song hits home for me. Almost could have been written bout my life.. I’m 38 yrs old now and this song still has me tear up. Grew up without a father and always questioned myself. Was it my fault? Why don’t he want me? As a father myself now would never have my girls grow up like I had too

[@lowlypeasant]

India dropping the truth bombs on this one.

[@CCDzine]

The lyrics pack a punch but don't sleep on the musicianship & production, and the ability to write a great pop song. Everclear is one of the great trios of rock & roll.
