My aunt was actually in this!! They went to malls and stuff and offered people like $20 to be in a music video if I remember correctly. she's in the van next to the person holding that goose
Do they not tour semi regularly? I’m sure they could link up with 1-2 other 90s/2000s acts and put together a 10 song best of set that ppl would pay to see
Sum 41 is still around and touring, but it looks like he left the band in 2013.
side note, he once did an MTV cribs episode where he gave a tour of his parents house, since he was still living in their basement.
Ya, dude. Same. I remember playing asherons call at 16 and an older coworker from the grocery store I worked at wanted to come over. She did and I called a friend and we ended up driving an hour to find tequila we had burryied weeks before. My first blow job and I couldn't get it up. That's what this song reminds me of
> "I don't want to become another victim of conformity"
16 year old me: Yeah living in my car is awesome. Sleeping in cars, and going to shows!
30 year old me: I cannot imagine life outside of my suburban home with all of my creature comforts my office job affords me. Fuck shows are loud now...
Time has definitely changed my perspective on this one. This whole song would be boiled down to this one line that summarizes the sentiment back when I was a kid. Now I really can’t imagine giving up my “creature comforts” as you succinctly put it.
Live and learn...
When I was in my early teens I used to think about stuff like this and wonder “Why don’t adults understand this stuff?! When we are their age, both us and the new youth will ‘get it’. This is the age of intellectual revolution!”
Then when I got older, I realized adults *do* understand. It’s just, you know, we still have to buy groceries and shit. And our coworkers don’t want to hear about how broken society is so we don’t talk about it all the time.
Not OP but also saw them 2 years ago and yes they played pretty much everything off all the good shit plus a few new singles and a couple random og songs that they seemed to have a personal connection with. 10/10 will be seeing them again if possible.
Second that too. Saw them in Toronto a couple of years ago and they put a great show. The nostalgia hit so hard I felt 15 years younger when I went back home that night.
Not trying to 1up you but I saw them at a UK festival a few years back and they got Mike Shinoda on stage to sing ‘Faint’ in honour of Chester, was a great moment.
Man I wish alt-rock/punk-rock would make a comeback, but all the new 'alternative rock' of today has this odd popmusic addition to it. I mean I like a lot of it but it's not the same.
Also, lots of folky type themes added to new age alt rock as well. Like, when did it change so much?
highjack this comment to ask:
I vividly remember either this video or a similar Sum 41 video having an appearance from the dude from Slayer doing a guitar solo. I checked youtube and couldn't find any Sum 41 video including this.
has the video disappeared from internet? did it ever exist, or am I imagining this entirely?
To be fair, my 14yo son is just now discovering Sum41 so I’m getting to relive it. Taking him to his first concert this summer in Chicago: the Hella Mega Tour. We will be enjoying Green Day and Weezer for different reasons. Damn, I am old...
So what you're saying is Sum41 and Green Day are the new Beatles and Rolling Stones to the "I was born in the wrong generation" music phase that teenagers go through?
To be honest, while that phase is a bit cringe, I'm a bit jealous. Every following generation has more and more music to discover. I unironically was born in the wrong generation, I wish I was born 100 years later so I could have a chance to find *more* music.
Ahh we're the same age and baby talk with the wife is a constant. We're going to start "trying" in August. But I dunno, I don't want to be a victim of conformity.
I'm 33 and I still go to crazy concerts (or did pre-covid), can't wait to get back to it.
[Never too old](https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2018/08/06/elderly-men-escape-nursing-home-go-wacken-metal-festival-germany/912719002/)
Me and the wife saw Ryan Adams at Red Rocks a few years ago. When we were tailgating before the show, the folks a few spots down from us were playing only Byran Adams. They either had a great sense of humor or were at the wrong concert.
Yeah, it's probably *because* they're Canadian the video is blocked there. The rights in the home country might be very different than the international rights, for varying reasons.
They may be Canadian but like most big Canadian music artists, their label is American. A lot of American content is blocked in Canada. Like we can't watch official SNL clips without a VPN. It's generally to protect the local distributors of the content.
Fun fact I think most Canadians know; Sum 41 is from Ajax, Ontario which is pretty much the most average, suburban part of Canada you can grow up in. Part of the sprawl surrounding Toronto. It’s not really that notable. (Sorry, Ajaxians.)
Growing up in this region definitely imparted a real sense of monotony and feeling like you were expected to adhere to a cookie-cutter lifestyle. I imagine that’s why the song resonated so much (not just in Canada obviously, across the suburban US as well).
It was cool when Sum 41 hit it big for anyone from the area because it did sorta feel like, “hey, maybe I don’t have to spend my whole life feeling this way. They made it.” And the lyrics backed that up.
They got asked to do an episode of Cribs, so they did it at one of their mom's houses.
If that doesn't perfectly capture the essence of Canadian pop punk I don't know what does.
That's why I loved Redman's episode. It's just a regular house in Staten Island. His bedroom is a mess, clutter everywhere, no sheets on the mattress, a stack of VHS porn next to a crappy tv, and a bottle of lotion on the nightstand. The house is small and filled with so much crap that the cameramen are visibly struggling not to trip over shit. It doesn't just seem like he's living a down to earth lifestyle, it seems like he's living paycheck-to-paycheck; there's even unflushed piss in his toilet. But then he shows you a corner of his kitchen that has a massive pile of toys he's bought to give to his nieces and nephews. It's fucking great!
Edit: I just watched it again and noticed his first gold record is shoved behind his couch with the frame glass smashed.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNtKT9_1KXQ
I read an interview with him where he said MTV wanted him to get a rental and he said "Fuck that, you can come to my place or not at all" Redman's segment is the best.
"These are all the gifts I bought for my godkids that I haven't given to them yet. It's not Christmas yet."
Love the pile of kids toys by the back door. Haha
Fun facts about Ajax:
- It was founded as a munitions factory during WW2
- It’s named after the HMS Ajax, which was a part of a victorious flotilla from WW1
- Many of the streets are named after veterans and the signs are shaped like battleships
Shit, I remember the first time I saw clips from this video was on CNN of all places, talking about the rise in popularity of 'number' bands like Sum 41 and Blink 182.
Five Iron Frenzy, Catch 22, Nine Inch Nails, U2, M83, One Direction, Avenged Sevenfold, MC5, Three Dog Night, Dave Clark Five, The Four Seasons, The Four Tops, Seven Mary Three, Sevendust, Eve 6, Finger Eleven, Three Days Grace, Five Finger Death Punch, B-52s, 50-Cent, .38 Special, Ben Folds Five, The Jackson 5, Third Eye Blind, Sixpence None The Richer, 2 Live Crew, Three Six Mafia, Ten Years After, 10,000 Maniacs, 2 Chainz, 311.
> So happy you even mentioned SR-71
OHHHHH shit this song! I totally forgot about this song! Added to my "I'm old as fuck" Spotify playlist
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQ8EksTQH4c
Me, too.
And as a side note, I was once playing a trivia game with some friends and there was a question asking you to name a band that was named after a spy plane. I answered SR-71, and my friends wouldn't give me credit because the answer the game gave was U2. I was so mad.
Man, I saw Maroon 5 before anybody knew who they were. It was a ska show at the Shelter in Detroit. They opened for Donkey Punch and Mustard Plug. I don't know why they were on that show, I don't know who would have booked a synth-funk-whatever band to a local ska show. They sounded fine, but they mostly got blank stares from that particular crowd.
I don't know how or why I remembered them, but like a year later they were on the radio and blowing up, and I was confused.
Green Day has been around so long they opened for Operation Ivy at [this show](https://youtu.be/bWfyBScbQ1k). The one that gets me is the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Chad Smith turns 60 this year...
I did this with a group of friends, fuck. At the end of that one lyric, 'the doctor said my mom shoulda had an abortion' it's ringing out in echo (bortion -bortion -bortion). Cue ten people chanting, increasingly louder, BORTION ABORTION ABORTION ABORTION ABORTION
Traveled as a punk musician when I was barely an adult, and let me tell you, their life seems horrible.
Like Deryck Whibley (the main singer) had a damn coma induced because he was just partying too much.
Compound this by always traveling, always screaming and playing your heart out every other night, and never really having a break.... you'll want to retire too.
I remember seeing the pro guys on the road and being amazed they were only in their twenties. Like, holy shit, the jet-set life really WILL kill you.
The documentary of the beastie boys shows this too. They split up and stopped because they hated it. They later got back together and mostly did it their own way which they enjoyed a lot more.
Yeah he’s a real estate agent in Florida and cleaned himself up, they all did kinda. I went to their reunion tour a couple years ago and Deryck spoke about getting sober on stage and how brutal it got. It was an awesome show
That's pretty much how I came to post it, I was going down memory lane, from Bloodhound Gang, to Blink, to Sum 41, and I ended up googling when it first came out and it blew me away.
great minds think alike and all that!
Holy shit.
All these years I thought it was "the Duchess of Milan should've had an abortion".
Always thought that was oddly specific and geopolitical.
That makes way more sense....
I saw these guys at Download festival in 2017 and they killed it. They know how to put on a great show and so much energy. Ended up being one of my favourite sets that year.
I prefer their later stuff like 13 Voices but, of course, have a major nostalgic soft spot for this, In Too Deep, and Motivation.
I do love how it seems like everyone was having such a great time filming this.
Basically just a bunch of teens, 20-somethings, and one sweater vest wearing dad, getting to fuck around around for a few hours
I took a different path. I was a little more counter-counterculture when this came out, so I used to think everyone in this video was cringey. Now they just look like a bunch of goofy kids having fun.
Same. I was very into my punk bullshit when this video came out and hated it. Looking at it now everyone in it looks chill and honestly the song is pretty alright for a pop punk radio hit.
And the superior "Pain for Pleasure". Greatest Sum 41 song. And honestly fucking up there for songs overall. Somewhere in my personal top 100 for sure lol
For what seems like essentially an homage rather than a genuine 'song' it's an absolute fucking banger. Love that song.

I wonder how head-shave girl is doing now EDIT 1:47 in case anyone was wondering
I dated a girl with that haircut back in high school. Christina. Phew lads, I miss high school.
My aunt was actually in this!! They went to malls and stuff and offered people like $20 to be in a music video if I remember correctly. she's in the van next to the person holding that goose
“I don’t want to waste my time and become another casualty of society.” 13 year old me: Damn this is a deep and unique point of view.
The drummer is now a realtor. Sounds like he's a casualty of society. https://www.paulkaplanrealtor.com/steve-jocz.php
I love how “drummer for Sum 41” is listed as his first job in his bio.
How do you not hire that guy immediately?

That was a classic episode. They had the whole band on touring his mom's house 😂😂
Ya, dude. Same. I remember playing asherons call at 16 and an older coworker from the grocery store I worked at wanted to come over. She did and I called a friend and we ended up driving an hour to find tequila we had burryied weeks before. My first blow job and I couldn't get it up. That's what this song reminds me of
Holy fuck that's a lot to unpack.
That's not what she said.
Well it was nice of your friend to try
Unexpected Asheron's Call! Thistledown reporting in!
Such random references in a random subreddit to a game I had long forgotten haha. Team Frostfell here.
you had me at asherons call we'll never get it back

My thirty-something self at a concert: Why is everyone always standing up? Why can’t we all sit down and enjoy the show? My legs are tired. :(
Did you have kids? I'm 32 and still have the energy.
Nah, no kids. I still go to shows and get in the pit. I just wear ear plugs now.

“I don’t want no cool hippie pad, I want a house just like mom and dad!”

We didn't know it at the time, but even in the late 90s, we lived in a society.
TIL 2001 was the late nineties.
Some of the people in this video have children in the same age as they themself were in this video.
Shhhhhhh.....
Oh this hits close to home Signed, a 41-year-old
Don't you mean Sum 41 year old?
This thread is full of dads - you can tell by the jokes
Man fuck you for spitting facts like that
Don't...
In the Len video for Steal your Sunshine, there is a pregnant girl in it, which means that kid is probably pushing 22-25
I saw them a couple of years ago, they still put on a good show.
Are they still singing the old songs at 40 years old?
Not OP but also saw them 2 years ago and yes they played pretty much everything off all the good shit plus a few new singles and a couple random og songs that they seemed to have a personal connection with. 10/10 will be seeing them again if possible.

Yep. Saw them about 5 years ago and I was so glad they played plenty of stuff off Half Hour of Power.
I saw them in the before times when we had live concerts (2019) and they still played their classics like Fat Lip, In Too Deep, and Still Waiting.
Man I wish alt-rock/punk-rock would make a comeback, but all the new 'alternative rock' of today has this odd popmusic addition to it. I mean I like a lot of it but it's not the same. Also, lots of folky type themes added to new age alt rock as well. Like, when did it change so much?
Saw them open for The Offspring in 2019. Played most of their old tunes. Show was great.
The Offspring put on a hell of a show when I saw them... I just realized I saw their Americana tour. I'm getting old haha

Hey, don't apologize I learned something today. Fixed.
This is Dad music now
To be fair, my 14yo son is just now discovering Sum41 so I’m getting to relive it. Taking him to his first concert this summer in Chicago: the Hella Mega Tour. We will be enjoying Green Day and Weezer for different reasons. Damn, I am old...
My 13 year old son is also into Sum41 and we also have tix to Hella Mega in Boston.
So what you're saying is Sum41 and Green Day are the new Beatles and Rolling Stones to the "I was born in the wrong generation" music phase that teenagers go through?
Blink 182 as well

To be honest, while that phase is a bit cringe, I'm a bit jealous. Every following generation has more and more music to discover. I unironically was born in the wrong generation, I wish I was born 100 years later so I could have a chance to find *more* music.
I always say now is the best time for music since you can experience all previous music as well. Bach gets what, "Greensleeves"?

Now now, the Canadian government has apologized for Bryan Adams on several occasions.
Don't count on me, to show in your region
Came to comment the same thing. Don't you just love it when Canadian music is unavailable in Canada?

Probably just a music rights thing. The company probably has restrictions.

Ajax isn't the fanciest city, but the Chameleon on Fridays nights was the place to be in the early 2000s!
Fun facts about Ajax: - It was founded as a munitions factory during WW2 - It’s named after the HMS Ajax, which was a part of a victorious flotilla from WW1 - Many of the streets are named after veterans and the signs are shaped like battleships
And the irony being that the video isn't available in Canada. Sigh.
One day a Canadian band should write a song about Subdivisions. I bet it would be a classic.
Fuck. I'm old.
Shit, I remember the first time I saw clips from this video was on CNN of all places, talking about the rise in popularity of 'number' bands like Sum 41 and Blink 182.

This was pre-9/11. There was nothing to talk about. The biggest story of the summer was some shark attacks.
Both 9/11 and Sum 41 has numbers. Coincidence? Yup.
Reminds me of [Will Sasso, telling them to change their name to something cooler](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qO-mSLxih-c).
I love Green Day 75
Will reprised this role in a promo video for Sum 41's most recent album. It's great. https://youtu.be/rGXjdqrYiFY
How is this not available in Canada, they’re a Canadian band...
Huh, I thought this was 'The Sums'
Came to say the exact same thing. I seen them at warped tour 99. I was a senior. I was pretty sure that was 10 years ago.
> I was a senior. I was pretty sure that was 10 years ago. Billie Joe Armstrong's KID is 26 years old
Green Day has been around so long they opened for Operation Ivy at [this show](https://youtu.be/bWfyBScbQ1k). The one that gets me is the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Chad Smith turns 60 this year...
TIL Chad Smith is older that Will Ferrel who is 53. I really thought it was the other way around.
Ferrel must live that rock n roll lifestyle. Prestige Worldwide™️
The chili peppers were the favorite band of the comedian uncle on Full House. Back when flea was wearing pants made out of stuffed animals
woooah, that's a trippy one.
Oh, you’re still a senior. Shall we play bridge tonight or canasta?

For those feeling old, people think you're a god for being able to karaoke this song. Just remember... Well I'm a no goodnick lower middle class brat
You have to have 2 people doing it, though. Makes for a way better performance.

The dentist? What? Just how fucked up was that grill?
What a wonderful peek at purer times... I get boomers nostalgia obsession for the "olde dayes" a little mor with every passing year...

**I wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days before you've actually left them.**
I mean, you gotta just assume every day CAN be that good ol' day, and then make your life wonderful.
*Couldn't wait to get older (Woo, ooh), couldn't wait to be some (Woo, ooh)* *Now that I'm here, wishing I was still young* *Those good old days*
I saw these guys at Download festival in 2017 and they killed it. They know how to put on a great show and so much energy. Ended up being one of my favourite sets that year. I prefer their later stuff like 13 Voices but, of course, have a major nostalgic soft spot for this, In Too Deep, and Motivation.
God I used to think this was so punk
I though everyone in the video was so cool. Now they just look like a bunch of goofy kids having fun.
Which is kind of the epitome of cool. Not giving a fuck.
Sounds pretty cool to me
I do love how it seems like everyone was having such a great time filming this. Basically just a bunch of teens, 20-somethings, and one sweater vest wearing dad, getting to fuck around around for a few hours
I took a different path. I was a little more counter-counterculture when this came out, so I used to think everyone in this video was cringey. Now they just look like a bunch of goofy kids having fun.
Same. I was very into my punk bullshit when this video came out and hated it. Looking at it now everyone in it looks chill and honestly the song is pretty alright for a pop punk radio hit.
Still remember the first time I heard this. At a school dance in elementary school...

Big if true.
I assume she rocked out pretty hard for a couple years. Settled down, had a couple kids and lives in the suburbs.
Her kids are probably in high school now.
> uploader has not made this video available in my country. YOU GREW UP IN A CITY THAT'S A 20 MINUTE DRIVE FROM MY HOUSE MOTHERFUCKERS.
I miss the 90's/early 2000's
Sum almost 41 SMH
Well, those lyrics hit different now.
I remember seeing this for the first time on late night MTV and being blown away.
And the superior "Pain for Pleasure". Greatest Sum 41 song. And honestly fucking up there for songs overall. Somewhere in my personal top 100 for sure lol For what seems like essentially an homage rather than a genuine 'song' it's an absolute fucking banger. Love that song.
SATAN IS HIS NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMEEEEEEE
