Smash Mouth - Walkin' On The Sun (Official Music Video)

[@TomWatsonB1]

When I was 12-13 years old and it was the late 90s, this was a grooving tune. As someone who grew up on classic rock, Smashmouth was a 90s band I actually enjoyed. Thanks for the memories, Steve and RIP.

[@calebbasile2219]

It was 1999, one of the few memories I have as a 3 year old is driving around in my Dad’s convertible on a sunny summer California day and All Star comes on the radio and my Dad and sister are teasing me because apparently it’s my favorite song and I lose it whenever I hear it. Shed a few tears today hearing that the singer passed, didn’t know how dear to my heart they were. Later on I got caught up in the jokes and memes about Smash mouth, but they’re no joke. These songs are timeless and dude is an insane lyricist.

This song always was one of those that made you want to hear it again and again as soon as you first heard it. I remember thinking at the time it was released that musically(in terms of instruments, tones, and the arrangement) that it sounded very much like late 1960’s music of The Doors…which I also really like. An instant classic from Smashmouth! Thank you Steve for the great music.

First, R.I.P. to Steve Harwell. This song always will always will have special place in my heart. I was really huge jazzbo; stuff like Miles Davis, Ornette Coleman, Wes Montgomery, Grant Green, etc... Then I heard this song in the summer of '97. All my friends hated it, but I loved the vibe and the ambience of the spring reverb guitars and warmth the vocals and drums. This track feels like a beautifully hot summer day with an unmatched brilliance to it. Novel yet very classy. I also owe this band a massive thank you for getting me into experimental lounge music specifically the group Tipsy! - a Bay Area duo that was also incredibly amazing for its time. I always wish they would have collaborated together and made some weird experimental lounge madness together. Stay Fresh!

But they vary in different ways. The thing is, when this song came out it sounded unique and original. But by 1999 this sound had already been in the forefront of the mainstream with other artists performing similar music. After the likes of Sugar Ray, Sublime and other reggae/ska influenced groups started putting out hit after hit, it was so familiar. So Smash Mouth did NOT sell out.

Playing this at my 26 year old son's engagement party! Was his absolute FAV when he was about 9! He and I used to dance to it in the living room. Sigh ... not long afterwards came the years of "Mom, you embarrass me!" ... probably will if I pull him up on the dance floor with me at the party! BUT .... I FULLY INTEND TO DO IT!!!

[@azazleue]

omg! awesome!

[@ComradeGrimmGames]

+Anthony Mitchell Now, now, kiddo.. She's a bloody family woman, you utter pillock. Respect women, will you?

[@TerryReedMiss]

Grimmy Grimm Anthony Mitchell No worries! As MY age, nearly 60, I'll take all the compliments I can get. LOLOL Well, except the nasty nasty ones. But I don't think he meant that to be ugly. But thank you, Grimmy, for standing up for gentlewomen everywhere! We also appreciate that, at leat, I DO! :-) Now, where ARE the 60 yr old SINGLE men? With my son marrying, who am I going to take care of when he's gone? Sigh.

[@1978Specter]

+Terry Licia how did the engagement party go? Hope it went well! Did he dance with you? LET us know and take care.

[@bemore1134]

This could've been recorded in 1966 & fit perfectly, the overall tempo, the guitar, everything. And that's a major compliment.

[@Truthandlight66]

Except for the lyrics

[@mariobuild11.39]

And organ riff

[@bryanduncan9091]

Beginning riff sounds like soul kitchen by the doors just a lower pitch so you’re not wrong at all

[@bemore1134]

@@mariobuild11.39 There's some stuff from the mid-to-late 60s where the organ riff would fit perfectly, IMO. I agree with Melissa though...lyrics not so much.

[@therobert9521]

@@bryanduncan9091 it does. I don't know why I hear She's Not There by the Zombies. I think the organ from She's Not There and the guitar in this is really close to the same melody.

[@uTubeNoITube]

This song has such a summer vibe to it, freaking classic.

[@schmigr]

RIP, Steve Harwell. Rest assured that you and Smash Mouth will eventually get the recognition you deserve! I've always loved the Retro Alt-Rock sound of your vibe. Fantastic!

[@5ftOfRage]

Yeah really sucks past several years we have lost some iconic and legendary singers😢

[@steverogers7601]

“Recognition they deserve” ?? Were you not born during their breakout years? They got a good couple years with this song, and of course All Star.

Tengo 46 años y aún siento esa vibra que sentía en los 90s cuando escuchaba está canción en mi trabajo. Es grandiosa! 👍❤️💪

[@tallguynmass]

“Put away the crack, before the crack puts you away.” Some of the most powerful lyrics ever written. RIP Steve, you’re an All Star and I hope you’re already Walkin’ on the Sun up in the big sky.

This song transports me to my happy '90s adolescence. Thanks for the memories Steve. Rip🖤

[@jimmytempleton7910]

Smash Mouth, you just nailed the 60's. Thank you for your music contributions to the world.

[@Ward1706]

+Jimmy Templeton *ahem* 1990's.

[@jimmytempleton7910]

+Ben Ward, cool. I was referring to the style of music, dress in the video, beach and drag race parts. Very reminiscent for me of the 60s.

[@veronicadeebee5250]

+Jimmy Templeton agreed!

Distortion on that guitar is absolutely filthy. Great song, I will miss the late 90's/early 2000's til I die.

Rest in peace Steve Harwell. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 Depression and alcoholism are real

[@allanvalle9581]

1997 was my freshman year in college studying Psychology. I had spent almost six years listening Heavy Metal, Thrash Metal, Death Metal and Black Metal and then this song came out on the radio as I was on the autobus going to classes, suddenly I was swinging and dancing that sunny and warm morning and and that same afternoon a cousin tolde me his father had bought him this CD and this song became part of the remix tape for going camping with my friends. Today, 25 years later I woke up singing and I have listened this same tune eight times. There is no such a time machine like the memories and this music is the fuel moves its engine.

How did they psychology degree work out for you?

[@Science_fairy]

My older brother was particularly excited to purchase this CD because there was music video you could watch on the computer. Also these lyrics are exceptional and underrated and constantly relevant in these modern times. Thanks for taking the time to read this comment and be cool peeps.

[@1LORDKEYNES]

ahead of their time with old school vibes, they really were in the year 2080

[@rozchristopherson648]

I was a caregiver for my elderly parents back in the 1990s. This song and other Smash Mouth songs made that time easier for me. RIP Steve. 🧡🙏

[@groundbreaker91]

This grew on me to become my favorite of Smash Mouth's songs over the years. The way Steve effortlessly flows with the rhyming scheme in the song creates such a fun feeling that you can't help but vibe with it/him. RIP, thanks for being making a formative years that much more entertaining.

[@nicholas5623]

Well said, it's a great song
