Jimmy Eat World - Big Casino (Official Music Video)

[@courtneytheriault5705]

"There's still some living when your prime comes and goes." - lyrics that hit harder 15 years later in 2022.

[@katiegreene4119]

36, haven't hit my prime yet! Haha. Rock on, young savior.

[@0newingedcrow]

Amen to the both of you!

"Let me tell you something, I haven't even begun to peak. And when I do peak, you'll know. Because I'm gonna peak so hard that everybody in Philadelphia's gonna feel it." - Dennis Reynolds

[@leighhoran8445]

Aint that the truth..40 now, remember hearing this in my mid 20s. Can't say I've done bad for myself, could have done better, but I certainly am not where I thought I would be at this age

[@allthingsbegin]

That line gets me every time after ALL this time

[@Wingless117]

Still on repeat 2024.

[@brandonfoster4351]

Still number 1 on my playlist.

[@TheReader6]

I wish I had heard this 15 years ago.

[@connorohalloran9225]

This band is ridiculously underrated. Such a special talent.

[@jamesdavison2927]

Amen

[@simontemplar3359]

Still true!

[@MrJ0mmy]

this band is really good

[@ccaccord07]

One of the best ever-with all seriousness

[@lordkayx]

they are not underrated to anyone who was living when they came out. me an friends must have bought and stole bleed america 5 times over

[@10bouvier]

Lost my only child, Brian. He was 37. Depression to addiction.... Thanks Bubba for keeping me up on the latest for 20 yrs. Still remember dropping you off at bandcamp in Beaumont and surprising you with a fresh copy of Collective Soul's first release. Father leads son, then son leads father. The last band you led me to before you left was The National.... still listen.

[@marcschlein730]

Jimmy Eat World is so underrated

[@positivexp2820]

no way ,taylor likes them

[@katielb75]

They had the last several months off to concentrate on their own things - they are writing again now

[@ROCKaholic]

1:43 - As someone who is approaching his 40's and is self-conscious about getting older and missing the good 'ol days, these lyrics hit me hard and give me great comfort: "And I'll you something else That you ain't died enough to know There's still some living left when your prime comes and goes"

[@Pete_R63]

A favorite of mine, too. Sadly, I just hit 61.

[@TheJimBeam7]

Yeah that lyric is a kick in the nuts to anyone from 40-60 lol

[@joshmackinnon6941]

Jim is a beyond humble person and deserves so much more recognition then he gets. One of my biggest influences for music. I cried when he commented on fender ja90 that i tagged him in.

[@michaelmyers7425]

As a life long metal head I'd make fun of everything on the radio while we worked construction but when this song cane on the radio when it first came out It changed me, I could feel the HEART of this song, it was actually getting me emotional . THIS is great song writing . I'm also from N.J. so it hits even harder. Let's enjoy it again, shall we ?

[@muenchhausenmusic]

I also love this album! Also pretty big into heavy stuff. What I found interesting is that the guy who co-produced this album, John Fields, also produced basically all of the Disney rock form the late 2000s, when singers such as Demi Lovato, Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez and the Jonas Brothers all were sporting this energetic teenie pop rock sound. He also produced the first two albums by Andrew W.K. I unironically really like the second album by Demi Lovato, called Here we go again. Super energetic, great pop composing, also super fun to drum along to :D

[@njerzee911]

Right On. Nort Jersey Success Story Also👍😎😎

[@jlangdo2]

My favorite line: "There's still some livin' left when your prime comes and goes." And its true! Hell most of your life is spent living past your prime haha.

[@thekirajustice]

To this day, JEW's most heard songs are from Bleed American (2001), released 6 years before this song. The man knows what he's talking about.

[@Addified]

@@thekirajustice That was a very different era in music though. When Bleed American was released, rock and pop-punk dominated the charts. By the time Futures & then Chase This Light were released, not so much.

[@nates4594]

"Rock on young savior, don't give up your hopes." Damn, I love Jimmy Eat World.

[@the_algo_rhythm]

*don't get up your hopes. Changes it a bit.

[@soldiermedic2072]

All I'm saying is...I met these guys at the Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ on Jim's B-Day. And i remember telling him i've wanted to shake the hand of the man that plays those songs and shortly after this song was released. Not saying i had anything to do with the chorus but...i'd like to think so. I love them til infinity

[@Fortyjustice]

That’s awesome.

[@fahrulrozi1408]

This band so criminally underrated

[@andersonchrisa]

Wish music like this was on the mainstream FM radio :(

[@00survive]

It was, like 12 years ago 👀

[@hom2fu]

Heard it, it was premiere on KROQ and rarely played again.

[@Saberwaisen]

Who listens to radio nowadays?

[@Niedergauss]

@@Saberwaisen I do.

[@NESADDICT]

thats exactly what "your new aesthetic" is about on their album clarity. you should listen to it even if this message is 4 years late

[@verajune83]

Even though "Bleed American" was the first song by them I ever heard and loved, this is still my favorite track of theirs. Everything about it is perfect.

[@dontatme7]

tgolden12 yea I like the whole Chase this Light album and of course Bleed American album

[@jamesdavison2927]

ME TOO AMAAAAAAZING

[@HayabusaWill]

This song's chorus is the only time "New Jersey" and "success" go together.

[@jakej654]

thats the point of the line in my opinion, he wants to be something rare, something you dont see often, a new jersey success story.

[@jasmineg9738]

Im from Jersey and I love this band, but I didn’t realize they were from here

[@victorious2178]

@@jasmineg9738 they're not lol they're from Tempe, Arizona. Jim isn't from jersey either he's from Mesa LOL

[@seanjohnson7367]

@@jasmineg9738 the song is written from the point of view of a loser from New Jersey who thinks he’s going to be a rockstar but who fails.

[@cyclonejoker8605]

Sinatra, Springsteen, and Bon Jovi are from Jersey

[@Joe-tl2sz]

One of the best bands to come along in a long, long time. Bleed American, Chase this Light, and Futures should be in everyone's collection.

[@DylanSwinson]

Anybody else find themselves repeatedly clicking back to 2:43? That is pure chills

[@HANGINGWANG]

+Dylan Swinson No, not really. But I do find myself going back to 0:00 pretty often.

Yeah! The same! This album came out just when I met my first love. And we listened to this song fo hours :) oh, feels.

Please don't ever stop making music. I need this.

[@MowsysWrath]

The recording of this video made him very happy. I like how much he's smiling.

[@kristophermedlin3390]

Hands down one of the best bands to come out of the 90s! You can keep your Nirvana, I'll take my Jimmy Eat World.

[@fatler123]

***** No

[@kristophermedlin3390]

***** Why the hell would you want Nirvana anyway? Especially when you could have Jimmy Eat World.

[@DarkAngelEU]

Kristopher Medlin Because Nirvana is fucking raw. Don't get me wrong, I like both but JEW is like having a sugar coated mohawk while Nirvana is stabbing you in the back

[@kristophermedlin3390]

DarkAngelEU idk if i'd use the term raw for Nirvana. Mediocre? Yes. Raw? Not so much. If you want a 90s band that's raw you go with Placebo. They are insanely better than Nirvana. Kurt Cobain and Nirvana are so overly rated its not funny. Not saying that they suck mind you (they're meh). But they're not as good as people make them out to be. As far as 90s bands go they are in the middle (hehe JEW joke) at best.

[@storyofafailurex]

DarkAngelEU I am willing to bet you a years pay Kurt would have loved Jimmy Eat World. People forget he liked hella poppy bands that had substance.

[@atma86]

This band is so wholesome, I can't help but love them.

[@DaveSells1984]

The best band to grace the planet honestly. And the best live band I’ve ever seen 🤘

[@mqostergaard]

The first time I heard this song was the day after my dad died. For some reason it gave me so much hope and peace. I remember listening to it every day for maybe 2 or 3 months. I’ll always love this song.

[@Rock_music_king]

One of my all time favorite song. Listening from South Africa 🇿🇦

[@tehguybro]

Hope Jimmy comes back to South Africa again, I missed the 1st concert, and would love to jam to Pain and Authority Song.

[@errynugraha]

Damn, it's almost ten years and I still feel like this song just came out like 5 years ago. I feel old.
