Lyrics:
Oh look at me so ordinary, no mystery, with no great capabilities,
But I could make out as if I had it but you know,
God I'm so obvious and I should let it go, oh I don't know.
I'm no teenage icon,
I'm no Frankie Avalon,
I'm nobody's hero.
Reserved and shy, your average guy,
No piercing stare, just out of shape with messy hair,
But I always figured I was somebody in wait,
And now I'm guessing that my moment must be late cause I'm here, oh

[@arim.2403]

" I'm not magnetic or mythical, I'm suburban and typical" is the best line of the whole song

[@K1D4MN3S14C]

i enjoy the elevator musak version of "if you wanna" at the beginning. clever.

I know I love it! Don't know why but it makes me laugh

The actual song sounds like elevator music

*mentally in love with the girl who stands for guitarist*

[@nidhearc]

I don't know Freddie personally either, but I can tell you when I met him and the rest of the band at Reading Festival last year, they all couldn't have been nicer, and seemed to genuinely appreciate our support. It's evident that he is in the industry because he is passionate about music, and if that makes you a 'douche' then I wasn't aware of the change to it's meaning! I think Teenage Icon is a great track, the guitar line is one of the best I've heard in a while, can't wait for the album!

[@bhuezo]

Currently in the Coronavirus lockdown and discovering this awesome band. March 2020. Los Angeles California

Glad you like them. Can i recommend a few more for you. Missing Andy. Jesus and Mary Chain. The Rifles. Mickey 9's. Retro Video Club. Vida. The Magic E's. Enjoy my friend.

[@ThoseMeddlingGamers]

I like how the Vaccines are on tour 24/7 and they still have the time and energy to make another fantastic album

[@pjorodogg]

I came to a realization: their must be from another world. How can a band in only one year and a half release 2 albums ( about 30 songs with bonus, and singles), and tour all over the world, even coming to brazil (i was there). And those 2 albuns are amazing, the more you hear the more you like, and the more you want to hear.

I remember the first time I saw this video, it was also the first time I knew of The Vaccines and thought they were from the 70's. Rock n' Roll will never die!

Just witness them live today. AWESOME is the word to describe them.

Ur my teenage icon just over here crying wishing i could go to their next concert

I am completely obsessed with this song! I can never get it out of my head...not that I'm really trying haha Looking forward to the new album!!

[@WillSmithy97]

Another thing. If this was only on a few videos I probably wouldn't be bothered but this comment ad is everywhere. You'd never see The Vaccines doing this when they were small. They reached fame by great music and constant gigging. They built a core fan base and then went on to reach many.

[@teamocharlie]

I love this song and the music videos! Kudos to the kids for capturing the guys so well!

[@endakat]

This will always be one of my favourite music videos of all time.

[@bdr200]

I saw The Vaccines at the YNOT festival 2022. I'd not listened to any of their stuff before, but I must have heard something about them because something subconsciously suggested I needed to not miss their set. For me, they were the stand-out band of the whole festival. The Phonics, The Manics, Blossoms, and The Cortinas were good, but these guys were the best.

[@miguelmqueroa]

"I had a photo where John Lennon may have stood" best part
