Macklemore and Ryan Lewis - My Oh My (Official Video)

[@GoldenAce908X]

Shame that Macklemore hit it big on Thrift Shop rather than the songs that he was the most passionate about. Don't get me wrong, I love Macklemore, I just wish he got recognition for the songs he cared about like this one.

[@majorbento8118]

I agree.

[@locksley1788]

Its because he's unique. You need to be part of the bullshit mainstream to get anywhere these days. As you say he's so passionate about his songs. I personally think he's one of the best.

[@CerberusCraven]

Totally agree, but again he's from the north west. His views were already different to the rest of the country at the time. He kept marching on to the beat of his own drum though. so lets hope for the best.

[@adarool3333]

Same Love got pretty big as well tho

[@GoldenAce908X]

Shag Swag To be honest I don't really care if he writes them or not. What matters is he's making songs where he expresses himself, songs that matter more to him. I like but can't appreciate his songs like Thrift Shop but I love his songs like Otherside, Hold Your Head Up, Jimmy Iovine, Neon Cathedral...the songs which actually have a message that means something to him, not just something that sounds nice and you can party to.

My name is actually Griffey. I was named after, of course, the baseball player. When my mom was pregnant with me, my dad bet that if Junior got a homerun, they'd name me Griffey, since he was my dads favorite player. My mom accepted, and hey what do ya know he got a home run. I'm only 15 now, and my mom sadly passed away a few years ago in '10 so this song which is sort of a goodbye for Niehaus, I like to consider a goodbye to my mom

When you tell your story don't let the home run seem like a coincidence, everything happens for a reason and that home run belongs to you. And just know that your mom watches in awe as greatness shines through you, she wouldn't believe what she created. Hope you see this. Good luck out there.

I was at games 3 and 4, both friggin incredible games, but my favorite memory was flying down my stairs and bolting through my front door flailing and screaming when Edgar hit that double and suddenly having a moment when I could hear people in the distance all around me doing the same thing. I'll never forget that! Amazing how a fleeting moment of pure joy can bring up such emotions after all these years. I only wish Dave could be here for this moment as well. Damn I miss that man...Thank you Dave. GO M's

Dave Niehaus was an amazing sportscaster. As a child I would listen to him announce the Mariner games on TV till I had to go to bed. In the summers it would still be light out around 9 PM but I would stay up listening to Dave on my radio while fighting the urge to fall asleep. I grew up with the Mariners my whole life and Griffey was my idol. I even mimicked him, played centerfield, wore number 24, taught myself to bat left-handed (I am a natural righty), and tried perfecting his batting stance and amazing swing. This video gives me goosebumps. Thinking of the '95 season STILL gives me goosebumps. It was an epic year for Seattle and something I will remember and be proud of my entire life. This Macklemore video is pretty awesome and brings back some of the very best memories of my childhood. Thank you for that. REFUSE TO LOSE!

[@fcnl]

We were lucky to have Griffey growing up. Looking back at it now especially, with all the darkness that surrounded baseball back then, Griffey was not a cheater and was still the best at that time.

I remember back when this first came out, when very few people other than people in the northwest knew who Macklemore was. A lot has changed since then, and Macklemore has changed a lot, but in my opinion, this will always be his best work. Truly encapsulated how people feel about baseball in the northwest. Dave Niehaus was the greatest of all time. Rest in peace.

[@apex7118]

[@longliverocknroll5]

Agreed. Macklemore has made a lot of corny stuff both before and after going "mainstream", but this song is peak "real". You can feel it in his voice that this song was 100% real nostalgia and love for a voice of a generation.

[@TheSportsGuy242]

When I first heard this song the day it came out, I wept. Dave Niehaus was my hero and the reason why I am pursuing a career in sports broadcasting. I was one year old when '95 happened. Baseball is how I identify myself. This is my favorite song for so many reasons. This song quite literally moved me and changed my life. I still get teary eyed whenever this song comes up.

I grew up a hardcore A’s fan, and, though written in the voice of a Mariner’s fan, I’ve always found this song to be touching because it conjures up my own nostalgia, and brings back memories of watching countless A’s games with my family and friends over the years - memories I will cherish forever. On this day I find this song more touching than ever before, as Ray Fosse, the former A’s commentator and an icon of my childhood, passed away today. I experienced so much joy watching the A’s over the years, and Ray was a primary conduit of that joy. I will miss hearing his voice, his stories, his knowledge, and his never ending love for the Green and Gold.

God bless baseball so cool to see a hip hop song about it. It really is the best sport of all. There is no time limit. It challenges what a human can possibly do with a stick and his body, against what another human can possibly do tossing a ball. It was designed to break your heart, and yet time and time again their are insane victories by the underdog. There is no sport in the world like baseball, and it's so emotional. So in-precise. They measure everything in baseball by numbers and complicated math these days and still the unpredictable and impossible happens. A game of heroes, a game of villains. A game of redemption and regret. The national "pastime" and yet a game where time seems to stop during those wonderful moments you will remember forever. It's a game of contradictions and timeless truths. It's a beautiful game. Long live hip hop, and long live baseball.

I remember that series too, but on the other end as a Yankee fan, heart breaking moment for me as an 13 year old kid, Tough to feel better after that, but seeing the passion that other people have for their team, and the same moment def helps. I felt the same with Rizutto, listening to him was like listening to no other.

[@leahnaumann5008]

Awesome post David! Like your point of view. We Seattleites were THRILLED the M's had actually made it in to the series! I was at that game and will never forget it. We really did make history that night! I Love this song too, might even be my favorite! It makes my cry tho!

[@Schmalzel2000]

Those were some damn good teams you had, Buhner, ARod, Edgar, to go along with the pitching like the Big Unit. It was a respectful hate I had for that team. Still would love to see Donny get a ring with the Dodgers though.

[@Lithiumvixen]

Thanks, Ben. Born and raised in Ohio, I've been a Reds fan since before I could walk. I've always felt this song connected me to my Dad well before he passed away, earlier in this month. I heard all the games on 700 WLW, and I remembered the 1990s World Series. This song hits me in a place I didn't expect......but I did get the chance to live in Washington State for a year. A huge salute to Dave Niehaus (which I was honored to hear cover the M's in Safeco field) just as my heart goes out to Marty Brenneman and Joe Nuxall for Cincinnati. You sang a song of so, so many young boys all over the nation.

[@bethfoley4470]

@Brendon, I grew up in Louisville with the Big Red Machine on my dad’s radio. I know exactly what you mean. Brought tears to my eyes.

[@StoryboardMindset]

Grew up in Victoria, was lucky enough to visit the Kindgdome on multiple occasions to watch the M's play. Thank you for this.

[@broghywert]

Once in a while i come and listen Otherside next Wings and end it with My oh my...dunno why, but i think these 3 songs are their best songs!

[@DoubleWhopper1]

Same exact 3 songs.

[@MasochisticMaiden]

Add A Wake, Ten Thousand Hours and Neon Cathedral and you've got my go to six.

[@mariuskilian7101]

+MasochisticMaiden Add Same Love, Make the Money and Starting Over and you've got my go to nine.

[@broghywert]

Yeah and to make it even with 10 song's i'll listen to Darude - Sandstorm?!

[@maarten7363]

+broghywert and now you can add Kevin to that list :)

[@OptimusBird]

Came back to listen to this just because Griffey made it to the MLB hall of fame yesterday. Congrats Griffey

[@gamingwithcp8340]

I am a Yankees fan and I still get the chills listening to this. Even though we lost it was a great game. Thx Mac

[@KMason-zn3sc]

This song and video gives me chills. Literally. Thank you for creating and releasing this song, Ben. I wish I had better words, but I hope a "thank you" is enough.

[@josh1045]

RIP Dave. I miss your calls every time a game is on.

[@doobtoob7433]

head up bro

[@Sandman206]

I remembered the day I first heard on the radio driving my car that Dave Niehaus passed away and I unexpectedly tear'd up. I never thought I'd be impacted emotionally by a man I had never met in my life. It hasn't been the same listening to the Mariners games since you have passed away , Dave. RIP.

[@Shawzzo]

This song has stayed on my playlist for 10 years now will never get bored of this

[@queazdaz289]

Especially with the Mariners now killing it. Gives me goosebumps

[@Shawzzo]

@@queazdaz289 I’m not even interested in baseball but I just love this song and the passion he shows in it

[@kanoarayn]

I know most people in the comments aren't from Washington or even like baseball, but these two things are the closest to my heart. I'm so proud to be born and raised in this beautiful state and to be growing up with the Mariners.

[@tylershep4220]

My favorite team is the Rockies, but the Mariners will always be my number 2. I've never lived in Seattle, neither has most of my family. I've never even been there. But everything this team has gone through, the incredible stories and incredible players, how could you not support them? The fans are evidently passionate, and I hope they get to see their team win the World Series one day.

[@Original_Taylor]

MAGIC NUMBER: 0. LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. TASTE THAT RAIN.

Fight until the day God decides to wave us in.

[@bradyobrien9]

even after 21 years of pain here we are with a mid-season hot streak and finally 10 over .500 and I'm back to this video. This song gives me chills. Take me back to the 90's. Take me back Mack. One of my favorite songs ever.

[@nordicasaurus]

Man, I'm 28 years old, born and raised in Seattle and listening to this song makes the hairs on the back of my neck go up. I remember watching this game on TV. Crazy day.

[@protoman1365]

I'll be honest, I'm not a fan of Macklemore's music. Heck, I'm not a fan of rap at all. It's just not to my taste. But I am a Mariners fan, and this song makes me cry nearly every time I hear it. Only a stand up guy like Macklemore could commemorate Dave Niehaus with such great lyrics. RIP Dave, and thank you Macklemore for this fantastic song.

[@oskarsunderland]

+Proto Man Well said.

[@suzannechutis9597]

+Proto Man if you don't like you don't like you

[@protoman1365]

***** Eh. One of my issues with hip hop is that as a drummer, I feel replaced since every beat is pretty much made by a machine. That's why I personally don't like it, knowing that it is a personal issue. I don't think it's inferior by any means, since the quality of lyrics aren't influenced by the genre of music, and just because I may not like something doesn't make it bad. I like classic rock mostly but I don't expect everyone here to agree.

[@bonniemwi1]

Proto Man it's not the genre. It's the words man

[@cecekitty4452]

Mackelmore is one of the most Inspirational rapper out there that doesn't sing about sex,drugs and girls. He's spits the truth and facts about life and that's what most people love about him. He's not your ordinary rapper :).

[@justpalms9978]

I was in Seattle a few years ago and caught a Mariners game at Safeco field. Thought of this song. One of the coolest baseball experiences I've had traveling this country!

[@biggriggs23]

RIP Dave Niehaus. Best play by play man, and a friend to everyone who listened to him.

[@mjc-12]

Macklemore, you need to release more songs like this that have a meaning. At my school, in a subburb in Seattle, everyone thinks of Thrift Shop when they say your name.

[@kellyseana]

Same Love, Make the Money, Neon Cathedral, Wings, A Wake, Starting Over, and Otherside all "have a meaning."

[@mjc-12]

Kelly Seana Yes, but my point is most people in my school, which is in Seattle (Macklemore's hometown) think of Thrift Shop when they think of Macklemore. I don't like that. I know he has made many songs that have meaning, but I want him to make more, because I enjoy those songs more.

[@keeganhs4449]

Precourser Possibly it's just because 'Thrift Shop' is his most known song due to it being on top of the Top 200 Billboards for a number of weeks. Maybe they just haven't gone further into Macklemore's songs such as Language of My World and Vs. Redux EP etc. Hopefully they do though because the songs that Kelly^^^ listed above as well as many others have wonderful meanings to them.

[@Timewarp787]

Precourser Thrift Shop, the way I interpret it, does have some meaning. You don't have to have a ton of cash to have good style. I think it's a good thing this song is popular because it could stop some bullying because of "less stylish" clothing. I do agree with you though, it annoys me when people ONLY think of Thrift Shop when Macklemore is brought up.

[@cartervanoverschelde1275]

I'm a Yankees fan and I give a lot of respect to the mariners and to macklemore for making this song!😊

[@jordanhernandez6313]

This song gives me goosebumps, it definitely reminds me of easier days

[@nwcoastlife]

The shots of the waterfront, ferries, and Pike Place Market always make me homesick. It's funny to me that in 2016, my knee-jerk reference to SODO is still "Down by the Kingdome"

[@EchoArlo]

We did it Dave.

[@garycastaldo7117]

to understand this song you have to know and honestly cherish the game of baseball and know the feeling of being in love with a team and the sport

[@kingrazo10]

True!🙌👌

[@ryanp2053]

Very true words, but fuck the yankees

[@AdvanCed_OutlAw]

Ryan P You're the reasons why i want to like comments more than once.

[@noahoudejans5399]

I think it could be any sport, I myself am a soccer fan, but as a small boy I had the exact same feelings when my team won (Ajax Amsterdam)

[@Kieorasama]

Noah Oudejans it could be! However, he is talking about an exact moment in western Washington sports history. I distinctively remember that moment as a kid. we all felt like anything was possible, like we could actually make it this time. dave Niehause was THE voice of seattle baseball and an announcer like no other. he gave descriptions and interjections like poetry. During that time though between his coverage, and the amazing baseball, it felt like magic and everyone went in just to watch the game. we all felt united and the rush was amazing.

[@kingrazo10]

I miss Griffey JR... One of the best ever. I wanna cry for him retiring I love baseball it's my life, god bless this sport it creates unforgettable memories and who doesn't like going to the ballpark every now and then

[@MrBlackdomme]

I'm from germany and love baseball too, it's a realy great sport and my team and I are so happy when we played baseball :) sorry for may bad english

[@Makeyoufifacoins]

Im english but went to first see the ms in 2007 when I was 7 and Ive stayed up almost every night to watch them.

[@sonicthehedgehog3162]

Griffey Was Hands Down The Better Player Because Griffey Could Do All 5 Things

[@blahhhh581]

The positivity around Macklemore and the people he surrounds himself with is truly ubelievable. God bless :)

[@kellinielsen538]

I'm from Seattle, and I've been all around the country, but the best city I've ever been has to be Seattle. I love it here.
