[@theinfamousped]

I believe there will never be, nor was there ever before, a better "WOOO!" thrown into a song.

Gez been over 20yrs since I heard this song. Sure miss going to school with my kid brother. So many good memories.

[@strungoutboy21]

This song brings back some great memories. What a great band.

[@Jellyonpizza]

One of their most underrated songs, ever.

[@jorgemaldonado7069]

saw them live 2 months ago @Houston...a dream come true... been a fan since 1999 when my older brother found "don't hate me".. (: would they believe in us now? (8)!!

[@theinfamousped]

The greatest thing about this song is the "WOOO!" I don´t know if there will ever be a better "WOOO!" again. Out of 25 or so TGUK concerts I went to during college, he could never duplicate it live the way it sounded on the recording.

[@LetsGo6009]

[@kennyvasquez8007]

Toootttally

[@ZipKingOfTheOzone]

just heard this on pandora radio, FELL IN LOVE WITH IT :)

[@Maner_Louis]

So many memories with this song.....sad ones...

[@smellyfanelly]

this song painted an awesome picture of the reasons why i ended my last relationship. in fact, after hearing it a decade later on a mixtape given to me by a friend, i drove to his house and ended it the end.

[@markcarey1000]

I wish I was born before the 90s so I could listen to the get up kids as a teen when it was the trend.I love these guys

[@Scott-gl4zz]

for real

[@Maranville]

I was old enough but still a few years late. You had to be pretty hip to be into emo in the 90s. Most of us discovered it around 2000 or after, in our college years.

[@andrewknowles5250]

@@Maranville haha, this 45 year old man will take that as a compliment! I legit just remembered about these guys today after a handful of years.

[@EntryLevelLuxury]

86 😘

[@kilakr13]

98'-99 great fuckin year. Played Toronto, Buffalo and Rochester. Great memories

[@mrqsable]

Something To Write About, Tell All Your Friends, Your Favorite Weapon, Take This To Your Grave, and The End Of Ring Wars... Thank You...

[@williamfogtman]

Eu amo essa música desde de adolescente de uma forma que nem sei explicar

[@morijustice]

summer swallowed us whole; we waited for you to come around every word you wrote down, we read it over to know... would they believe is us now? there's no shame like no sound from sources hits close to home everything that we've found says make your own destiny but you're unaware that you should be scared maybe you'll learn from mistake that we make

[@JayTheHelmetGuy]

I just heard about these guy, I love em

[@attben]

yeah love it too

[@catoftruth1044]

for me they are the most popular band in the world. dont care about views and fame

[@Sumanoske92]

I love you all.

[@kevin6187]

best fucking band, this song reminds me of some of the best times in my life!

[@ZipKingOfTheOzone]

songs for summer :)

[@ChazDunn]

I love this band. End of.

[@inmortem]

The end finished oddly, idk if it was my computer or what ahaa...

[@skullfirec]

NOT WAITING FOREVER, WE KNOW, YOU'LL NEVER BE THERE!

[@michaelflanagan1185]

Who the fuck are the 11 people who clicked on this song and disliked it? Wtf? Why even click on the track? I love the get up kids! This album and 4 minute mile!

[@gayw3dd1ng]

they were second wave emo but are reguardless the best band ever. ever. ever. ever.ever.ever.ever.ever.

[@fox27488]

I especially love　this　song.　 This　song　make　me　feel　so　alone　but　warmhearted. I　wish　if　I　could　had　understood　English.

[@kidd1749]

@mrpumpkinn ohhhhhhhhh yeaaaaaaaaa.. I agree with this comment.

[@RowdyRowdy55]

@theinfamousped the early november - make believe . in the beggining he throws in a WOOO. it can compare :)

[@attben]

yay \o/

[@Squeege85]

@skeetinmyhair Despite it being the second wave of what was originally emo. Due to my age and having to wade through the all the bullshit that has passed or passes as emo nowadays. Especially the fad with eyeliner, chick clothes. skirts, cutting, and all that crap. I consider this "old school." So I guess it's all in the context. Also have much love Sunny Day and Jawbreaker for sure.

[@mapaglarongpagiisiptv9560]

this is a sad song.. really sad

[@Hemp4Victory98]

Asa Dawson sounds a lot like Matt Pryor**

[@mrkanisterr]

man thats some proper music not some douche stuff pumped out by "hip" emobands *thumps up*

[@JayTheHelmetGuy]

Ahh, that's why it didn't sound right to me

[@badkerproductions]

à Laura.

[@HenVenegasDroguett]

Sad... : (

[@JayTheHelmetGuy]

the lead singer sounds alot like asa dawson from The Junior Varsity

[@TokenChineseGuy]

Seriously. Can we just call this modern rock or punk and move along?

[@pedroemo5477]
