San Dimas High School Football Rules - The Ataris Cover

I just love The Ataris. Reminds me of middle school. :)
FEATURING my dad...
it actually starts at around 50 seconds in btw. haha

[@senoemo]

12 years later, i still keep coming back here. this song brings me back to my school days. like seeing your crush everyday from the other class, talking to her, hangouts with friends after school, detention after school, taking the long bus ride home with your sony discman playing this song and more. glad i live through those days. thank you for bringing me back. nice beautiful innocent memories.

[@tommyclifford6796]

You sir, just encapsulated my teenage years 👌👌👌

[@ManMonkey600]

Damn girl....that voice touches your soul. So sweet.

[@isaiarreola9253]

Last night I had a dream that we went to Disneyland, Went on all the rides, didn't have to wait in line. I drove you to your house where we stared up at the stars I listened to your heartbeat as I held you in my arms. We hung out at the rainbow where we drank til' half past two. Nothing could go wrong anytime that I'm with you. Like crashing a hotel room or leading up to that first kiss Or searching for a high school that you know doesn't exist These are the things that make me free I feel like I'm stuck in "stand by me" This night was too good to be true. Today I woke up alone wishing you were here with me, I wanted us to be something that we'd probably never be. Today you called me up and said you'd see me at our show, But now I'm stuck debating if I even want to go. Whitney, don't you understand here what I say is true? I just want you to know I have a major crush on you. I'd drive you to Las Vegas and do the things you want to do I'd even have Wayne Newton dedicate a song to you. I only wish that this could be Just dump your boyfriend and go out with me I swear I'd treat you like a queen.

[@87bebadbrad]

I've listened to this so much that you've made, "my mix", on KZbin. Probably my favorite cover. "Mmmmeeh". Sorry for arriving late to the party.

[@thebluebus]

:)! That makes me smile so much haha. "mmmeeeh" lol

[@ryanleach266]

how come you dont play the guitar upside down like kris? HAHA Excellent cover, beautiful indeed, where are these songs now, right? The people that grew up this era of pop punk (cringy name) truly have music that will last forever, to us!!!!

[@tiagocontieri]

What a sweet voice!!! I loved it! :)

[@thebluebus]

Bahaha that's awesome. I would have loved anyone singing this song to me!

[@joshgreenrules]

This is great. One of the best covers I've heard of this song. Good job!

[@thebluebus]

Thank you :)!!

[@TheInfierno82]

This song' almost 20 years later and still give me feels .... my queen

[@rossreisman]

I just found this and holy hell what an amazing cover!!!

[@thebluebus]

Ahh thank you!!! :)!

[@EnglishwithTMack]

Here I am again enjoying this freaking awesome cover! I can never get enough of it! Nicole, please do more of this.

[@thebluebus]

Thank you! Will do! :)

[@stevenalan9231]

I'm a huge Ataris fan, seen them many times, I didn't think you'd get so many haters, fuck em, You sound great, obviously the lyrics mean something to you, and it's not often I hear a female cover a punk rock band. I think it's awesome, Great Job!

[@mister_shiver8862]

I was all set to dislike this but... it's awesome

[@FranciscoGonzalez-nc8ue]

Just discovered this song then looked up covers. This was amazing! Hope you are doing well.

[@thebluebus]

Thank you, Francisco! I'm doing well, hope the same for you :)!

[@AlxSTI]

This was really awesome.. you have a great voice and just inspired me to learn how to play this song.. haven't heard The Ataris in years. Thanks! :)

[@nicholasvasquez8972]

This is the best cover of this incredible song that I have ever seen.

[@bblinkk182]

wow... this was the song that i used to play on repeat mode... over and over again... nice voice! love it!

[@Michael3851]

I watched the second video, and I am already in love! this songs reminds me the highschool !! beautfull cover *-*!

[@gaoblai]

Beautiful cover. I would love to hear this in a movie soundtrack. Ataris songs sound good stripped down to the acoustics, a sign of good songwriting.

[@virgo58]

Terrific!! Your voice is so cool!! 🥰🙏🎸🎶 Lpve you niece!!🥰

[@devinsnell6118]

Most songs are initially written for the genre that is best for the song/message. Every once in a while someone does a "cover" in a style that is actually the genre that the song was meant for. i.e. the sound of silence cover by disturbed and hurt by johnny cash. This is one of those times. bravo!

[@Kenza1984]

i coming always here... super cool cover

[@thebluebus]

Thank you so much! Glad to have you here :)!

Best cover hands down. Great voice!

[@thebluebus]

Thank you for the kind feedback!

[@RichardSchmidt07]

Great cover and soothing voice. When do you plan on redoing this cover without the piece of paper?

[@thebluebus]

I'll do that next! :) Thanks for listening

[@EastAmBull]

Woah never really noticed the lyrics before, they were so clear here, kind of deep!

[@xrocknrollerx86]

Great cover and beautiful voice!

[@kmack282]

Good for you girl, this is an old cover, but that doesnt matter, you did a wonderful job

[@stayingshredded]

Thank u for the beautiful singing and the nostalgia. Can u do covers of Yellowcard? 🙂

[@thebluebus]

:) Thank you, Joe! I could certainly try, though I have an internal list of songs I've been meaning to tackle and upload on here so we may be pretty grey by then. lol

[@munchimunch4187]

Honestly, awesome voice, trained most of my life and I still can’t get vocals

[@RoverIAC]

Wow! what a voice, great song choice too.

[@thebluebus]

RoverIAC thank you!!! Glad you enjoyed :)

[@RoverIAC]

@@thebluebus Thanks for the reply, I wasn't expecting it, 'cause this video is 6 years old. I hope your still singing, will check out your channel.

[@JamesMcKennaWriter]

Beautiful cover. Totally different sound, exactly the same spirit. Put your heart it into it and put it out there. If Kris Roe has heard this I'm sure he loves it.

[@jjorissen]

Only heard this now - amazing ☺

[@thebluebus]

Thank you 🥰!

[@SmartDumbNerdyCool]

You have an angelic voice

So good. Thanks for that cover.

[@thebluebus]

Thank you & thanks for listening :)!

[@benbailieemokid756]

I don't know if you check this much, but this cover is excellent. In fact, I think I might like it better than the Ataris version. (No offense, Kris Roe!)

[@thebluebus]

That is so nice :)! Thanks! And lol I don’t think Kris will see this comment 😜

[@Antifaith29]

Nice, mentioned it in another comment, and this vid is 6 years old I get that but, invest in a Pop filter if you havnt yet. Cool sound.

[@mikeloverdance]

very very very good version, i try to play your version do you "step up" ( i hope is well writen) a tone from the original and it sounds great. and you sing very very nice.

[@MichaelNight777]

glad I found this masterpiece of a song.

i love this version really but you have to eliminated the first part when your dad coming in to the bedroom... but your voice is so cool really

[@thebluebus]

Kenza thank you so much! And I should have edited the video a while ago, but my father has since passed so now anything I have that features him is special and dear to me.

[@Kenza1984]

Nicole Vlassoff really you have to show this to the ataris singer... Maybe you can sing in some concert... You have to be a important artist cause you have a voice that can touch the soul.... Have a good day!

please make a tutorial for this song PLEASE

[@thebluebus]

P r o t e c c M i n a r i i Super late reply and you may have figured it out by now but if not, try strumming C Em F G and then Am F C G ... then F G C Am G F G (“these are the things that set me free ..... too good to be true”) Then back to C Em F G I am also using a Capo on the second fret, I believe, to sing it in my range. :)

[@BodaciousWickerman]

Most bodacious.

[@eTerrance]

"...just dump your boyfriend and go out with, i swear i'd treat you like a queen..." requoting the song, i don't really mean that LOL HAhaha

[@wendysanarwanto6817]

SInce the singer is a female, that phrase should be rewritten as "..just dump your girlfriend/wifey and go out with me , I swear i'd treat you like a king ..."

[@eTerrance]

true

[@SonOfManMusic]

nice

[@siddmic]

Damn...

[@_RiseAgainst]

Whitney has since left me 😢

[@alexfrickentaylor]

If I meet you I'll sing it to you.

[@Aioriaszr]

chords?

[@mikeloverdance]

verse ( D-Fm-G-A) When it changes "we hung out at the rainbow...." is (Bm-G-D-A) And the next is like "(G) These are the thing that(A) make me free" "i feel(D) like im stuck(A) in Stand(Bm) by me(A), this night(G) was to(A) good to be(A) true(D)" and with that "D" starts the verse again..

[@flamemaster666]

C-Em-F-G capo on second fret

[@thebluebus]

Five years later... but if it helps, C Em F G and then Am F C G ... then F G C Am G F G (“these are the things that set me free ..... too good to be true”) Then back to C Em F G Capo on 2nd fret

[@MasterGaryFan]

Why didn't you edit out the first 55 seconds?

[@thebluebus]

Kebert Xela not sure, but I’m glad I have that still ‘cause now my father has passed so it’s a fun little memory I get to have.
