Third Eye Blind - Losing A Whole Year (Official Music Video)

[@Andromeister27]

Best opening track to an album ever.

[@MarkGray1970]

It's certainly up there. Its funny how jumper and semi charmed kinda life get so much attention and this is SUCH a great song.

Motorcycle drive by is one of my favs on this album. This is numero uno though

[@socrhet26]

Yes. I love the consonance "the whole GoD-Damn Day in beD." That's poetry--language craft drawing pleasant attention to itself.

[@Rose_19911]

so true... always gives me goosebumps

[@JayBigDadyCy]

This entire album is nothing but bangers. This one still flies under the radar.

[@davedarling6512]

one of the best albums out of the 90's.. amazing songs and the production is pristine

[@periklaskyriakidis6064]

Nah, I wouldn't say so. It might be less known than Semi-Charmed Life or How's It Going To Be and Jumper but it still is one of their most famous songs.

[@dreamfyre6]

for real

[@dogdriver70]

This is one of the best albums of all time. I will die on this hill.

[@jdillon8360]

@@jeremyjenners5150 Agree it's a banging record start to finish. But we can't really blame bands for not making albums like this any more. Streaming changed everything. Only singles matter now. I haven't bought an album for over a decade.

I'm on that hill with you. I love this album.

You're not wrong. There aren't many albums you can play all the way through without skipping a track. This one, though, I couldn't name a favorite. The whole album is a cohesive statement and a whole being.

Agreed. I say this as a black woman who grew up in the hood. I listened to their album almost everyday before and after school.

[@drewreid9112]

In 20 years these guys will be considered absolute legends of cultural music. They defined the sound of the 90s in one album.

[@BD-xn2dp]

One of the few perfect albums in Rock history - every track is a masterpiece. The music, the composition, the lyrics it was truly magical. Not sure if Stephen sold his soul to the devil or what but every damn song is super relatable, catchy, thoughtful and wrought with pure emotion. Bravo 3EB!

[@davedarling6512]

you didn't mention the production quality, the album just sounds so nice

[@JaySoul711]

He just got clean and sober and his soul body and mind rewarded him! 😅😅😅❤❤❤

[@danieldougan269]

On the surface, this sounds like a throwaway punk-pop song. But, if you pay attention to the lyrics, it's extremely insightful. It's definitely my favorite Third Eye Blind song.

[@bossman-jk9tl]

Agreed but if you're an actual music listener you will know this song is something special right away.

[@ilikemitchhedberg]

Kinda get the feeling like I'm being used. This video rocks

[@TexasJames]

Top 10 album of the 90s, having this cd meant you were cool.

[@nadzwatson]

Their first 3 albums and demos are truly timeless classics in my opinion. Not a single bad song. These days I have to listen to them in very specific scenarios/contexts because of how emotional the music makes me. Crazy. Time really flies.

[@rampantrelichunteruk666]

[@billymack4243]

[@scottkellam7712]

Same here. The music reminds me of a very specific relationship I was in at the time. Funny how that works.

[@MicaRayan]

What a timeless classic. They deserve all the praise. Sounds so fresh even after so many years

[@jamesschott2870]

Just picked this album up for the hell of it ----this album controlled my life for the next 2 years . I lived the reality of each one of their songs. Did not think I was going to make it to 2000 alive, I still carry memories and awful scars from that time. Met a person that turned my life upside down. Best sex I ever had ---best album of the 90s for me--ended up with a 2 year nervous breakdown. This album actually brought that person into me life---took it to a party they were there and approached me about the GREAT MUSIC---life was never the same. THIS DRAMA IS A BORE AND I DON'T WANNA PLAY NO MORE!!!!!!!!!!

[@andreshammer8897]

Ever think about writing a novel about it? Set in the 90s? I'd read it.. who knows, could be cathartic, could also be a top seller. Food 4 Thought..

[@blakechaney3675]

Brother we are kindred spirits 4 ever

[@rsgirrl]

This album also reminds me of my brothers lifestyle back then early 20s losing a whole year definitely described him, alcohol drugs women crime was what he did .

[@darrinmcbride2643]

i personally find a place i can hide and listen to just this cd so i can savor the memories it brings back and the emotional rollercoaster is not something i feel that most people can understand. it makes me feel better in a strange way to feel the loss ive had over the years. it helps me to remember where ive been and the lives that i have lived but more important it assures me of my placement in the now as well.

[@cascade3769]

It makes me feel old.

[@labmind1700]

[@roblestako8221]

Back when music was good

[@PinePrince]

[@liloreoinya]

The dichotomy is amazing.

[@Clowncentral101]

They're not really that poppy and not really happy semi charmed life is supposed to sound like how crystal meth makes u feel which according to Jenkins is "bright and shiny"

[@Maranville]

That's the 90s for you.

[@thischarminglovehound2376]

@@Clowncentral101 poppy is not an insult. Never Let You Go isn't grunge.

[@Clowncentral101]

@@thischarminglovehound2376 I didn’t take it as a slam, I’m js they’re not a happy/poppy band at all. I explained why SCL is that way and NLYG is that way cuz Jenkins wanted to sell out and have a second SCL in the next album to hit the radio and spark more listeners. Those songs are outliers is my point and not an accurate reflection of their general sound or their music.

[@luvspaiste]

@@oldmanellis2130 Thank you for the correction. Mike Urbano deserves credit for such an outstanding performance.

They're all top shelf musicians. I got turned on to Salizar's (apologize if misspelled..) genius after hearing a 70's retro style instrumental album (Soundtrack) he produced for a videogame in '95 (Interstate '76).. It was so tight, only to find out Salazar was behind it, makes sense.

I remember when this video was brand new. I think they played it on MuchMusic a lot, as MTV didn't show too many music videos even at the tail end of the 90s. It seemed so sleek and ultra-modern. I remember thinking I couldn't imagine anything looking or sounding any more futuristic.

[@ChungitRose]

My VERY first concert without parents/adult supervision. Flash back to February 11, 1998 at the UMR multipurpose building in Rolla, MO. I remember my dad made me dress well covered. I altered my outfit as soon as I was in the building and out of his sight. It was cold and wet winter weather and I wore a checkered black and white skirt and black cardigan and matching Maryjane shoes. I was 15 years old and in love with this band! I crowd surfed for the first time. Stephen on stage saw my joy and reached out and touched my hand briefly. Somehow while crowd surfing and enjoying my first mosh pit I lost one of my shoes. I went home with the biggest smile and only one shoe. Core memories formed that night! I felt invincible and alive! Fast forward to age 41 and I just purchased tickets to see TEB in concert in 2024 here in Tampa FL and I’m bringing my son along this time. Nostalgic! This experience needs shared ❤

Losing a whole year Losing a whole year I remember you and me used to spend The whole goddamned day in bed Losing a whole year Hiding in your room we'd lay like dogs And the phone would ring like a joke that's left unsaid Losing a whole year Rich daddy left you with a parachute Your voice sounds like money and your face is cute But your daddy left you with no love You touch everything with a velvet glove and Now you want to try a life of sin You want to be down with the down and in Always copping my truths I kind of get the feeling like I'm being used And now I realize that you never heard One goddamned word I ever said Losing a whole year Losing a whole year I took your stuff and put it in the basement When I found out what the smile on your face meant I've seen you pop that check, big Craning your neck at my car wreck and It always seems the juice used to flow In the car, in the kitchen, you were good to go Now we're stuck with the tube A sink full of dishes and some aqua lube And I remember you and me used to spend The whole goddamned day in bed Hey why Losing a whole year And if it's not the defense then you're on the attack When you start talking I hear the Prozac Convinced you've found your place With the pierced queer teens in cyberspace When you were yourself it tasted sweet But it sours into a routine deceit Well this drama is a bore And I don't want to play no more Why, why Why, Why Losing a whole year I remember you and me used to spend The whole goddamned day in bed Losing a whole year Hey why Hey why
