Unwritten Law - California Sky

[@walz53]

This reminds me of nailing TJ Lavins ultimate BMX when I was a kid. Happy days!!!

[@GaetanoProchilo1989]

That game was underrated

[@TheGuitarzac]

Same reason here, love to think about the gameplay when hearing to a song like this!

[@IvanaJsphine251097]

me too:( I miss my childhood

[@jestergamedev5551]

Hell yeah! That's what decades later brought me here. xD

[@Ang3lsMum]

[@brunomitchell2638]

Imagine The dreams we had since we were children Are real It's magick To see their minds filled with the music We feel Well here's your message from above And if you want to push come to shove Alright This ain't no lullaby We're right at home in the California skyIllusions Are taking part of the confusion In me Tomorrow There'll be no heroes left to follow You'll see Bright lights that flash across the sky May be the reason why we're all insane and I I don't want to get away and We're right at home in the California skyLive from the mansion on the hill Reminds me of the way we used to feel right Orion's aligned now Turn back the time The California sky

[@thisisajang]

Just played TJ Lavin's Ultimate BMX earlier this morning. It's still as fun as ever.

[@raffaelespallarossa1310]

One of the best bands I've seen live.

[@taddeocico]

one of the best songs of unwritten law in absolute

[@eversonpagan9]

tj lavins.. nostalgic feelings from Brazil

[@anthonyrosatti3991]

These songs just bring me back to SDSU in the 90s. Who cares about the Alien Weirdo!! These songs rocked at the parties!! 😂🎉🕺

[@thisisisabella3634]

I was in San Diego 96 to 98.

[@BikesAndBatallas]

Twenty years and I'm still unable to resist the urge to yell "live from the maaaansion on the heee-illl".

[@SirJoelsuf1]

Twenty years from this day nearly, still one of my favorite songs (and records) EVER.

[@mavdj]

I used to bmx to this back then, I was 21. Now, I'm 32 still riding. Stick with the great jams, and Ride on brotha!

[@MiketheNerdRanger]

This song brings back so many memories it's crazy

[@rambettelyman6685]

I saw them play in Providence, RI back in the day. Cool band.

[@1mUn9]

a soundtrack from a bmx's game. still remember till now. nice song.

[@enriqueprim.5595]

Que nostalgia cuando jugaba TJ Lavins ultimate BMX, lo volví a jugar y es maravilloso.

Gosh.... 28 now discovered these guys when I was in H.S. Started randomly singing this song the other day and couldn't find the CD anywhere. Had to jump onto youtube and so glad it is here!

[@ayrmendina8314]

Any recommendations for the decade you just lived brother? Hope life is treating you well.

[@kevandre]

This was one of my best friend's favorite songs back in the day. Whenever I think of it my mind goes straight to him lol

[@bbas5612]

[@sinchogarcia]

yo igual hermano no dejaba de jugarlo! grande Unwritten Law

[@kingmanmillenia]

I've spent a part of the day looking up songs from my past from video games. Aaaahhhhhhh simpler times.

[@jaymChrist4ever]

🗣️reminds me of the way we used toooo feeeel right , Orions all aligned now!”

[@ZachGood]

Interesting note about this song. In March of 1997, the members of an alien cult named "Heaven's Gate", which was based out of San Diego, committed mass suicide because they believed an alien spacecraft was trailing the Hale-Bopp Comet and the group thought their souls would be taken up in the ship. The bald guy shown a few times in this music video was the group's leader, Marshall Applewhite. Well, Unwritten Law is a San Diego band who recorded "California Sky" in the summer of 1997. Putting these things together, I assumed that Scott Russo and the band were inspired to make this song based on the cult suicide...but a couple years ago I tweeted Russo and asked him if this was the case, and he told me no. I just can't imagine this song _not_ being about Heaven's Gate.

[@NexterZulu]

The lyrics really make sense to be about Heaven's Gate. With Applewhite appearing in the music video, it's weird that it's supposedly about something else. But sometimes songwriters deny the commonly believed inspiration for the song, even if it's obvious what the song is about.

[@willys8994]

Russo is an alien enthusiast, it had nothing to do with it. Definitely a coincidence. But I mean I’m sure maybe the clip of the bald guy was relevant in some way when editing the video. Also, take a close look at Russo’s sleeve. I got a personal in depth explanation from him on it and we share the same beliefs and we had an awesome chat on ancient aliens lol.

[@punkrockstormchaser]

It’s absolutely about it Scott probably just is an old man and forgot

[@rvidismo]

tj lavin's nostalgia.

[@ajunx1986]

hey,this song is like from the stone age of playstation games,and i still fuckin love it.damn,bring back my junior high times,with that playstation one

[@StraightPunkEdge93]

From the moment I heard the songs off their first and second record I instantly loved them but for whatever reason it took me a while to get into their third. Now that I've gotten into it I realized this is definitly pop punk at its finest!!!!!

There was a girl I went out with one time who knew the drummer for Unwritten Law, she said she would introduce me to him...she never did return my phone call for a second date....I was more disappointed by the fact I would never get to meet him V_V

[@Awehmazing]

I wish he'd stop staring at me

[@SonicRyan1992]

only complaint, this was a pretty weak music video for such a mystic, and trippy rock song.

[@ankitnp1782]

In their defence this was 1998

[@SonicRyan1992]

ehhh...then again Marilyn Manson's "Dope Show" and The Offspring's "Pretty Fly for a White Guy" worked well between audio and visuals. but what i can forgive is that maybe at the time Unwritten Law didn't have nearly as lucrative of a budget to pull it of and this was the best they could do then.

[@ashcan6]

The lyrics are kinda dumb, but the video always gave me chills for some reason.

[@aliciakirgan6037]

best U L song

[@xxdeadchannelxx]

Sounds like Breaking The Habit by Linkin Park.
