The Decline has been my favorite song in existence ever since I first heard it in high school. I listened to it over and over again until I had all the lyrics wrote down in my punk folder lol. Wasn't able to look them up at the time. Watching this orchestra version gave me the chills and water may have came out of my face too man, so don't sweat it :)
This is my first reaction vids of yours I’ve seen. Great song, great job, and good on you for enjoying the song without interruption as a fan. I even got a little misty at your faces. I’ll check out more. Hell yeah.
Man, absolutely fantastic! I got goosebumps from beginning to end of the song. I was touched like you, brother. My day just got better. This is Cesar from Brazil. Big hug ... What a react !!
this song... this song, man,,, i've heard it for the first time when i was a child, now i'm 32 and understand everything about the lyrics, everything they say is true, and that is some kind of deep sadness... we cannot change the control of this system, this culture, this status quo, this type of life..., everything is out of hands... but well, hope you're doing great with these hard but truthful things, Cheers from Chile and LONG LIVE TO NOFX... The Decline, or should we say... the present decline...
Man, you really get into it and I love it! For me, there is no other way to listen to this master piece than the way you did it. New suscriber here. Greetings from Spain
Great vid dude one day it will happen. I’ve been lucky enough to hear it live twice here in uk. Almost a third time but Mike sang the first line got everyone excited then said sorry not tonight guys.
This version is SO good. I probably watch it about once every couple of weeks. I know Fat Mike overdubbed the vocals (or at least some of them), but still....what a masterpiece. There's so many moments where he's just beaming with pride, and rightfully so.
French Horn comin in strong at the beginning! I was a french horn player in high school, and even played it in a ska band we had (was a 17 pc band...Mr. Pooper & the Booty Mackers, we didnt go far..lol). Fat Mike is filling that dainty summer dress out very nice!
Lmao! They were supposed to be at the Santa Cruz memorial day concert. They weren't. But I did see Bradley from Sublime take a nose dive off the stage! Lol
Dude.... i saw this song live during warped tour in Calgary, 2005 i believe. I remember loving this song before i even say it live, I was all but 17, and didn't realize the truth Fat Joe was preaching that day at Race City. So on that note man i just want you to know, as someone who has seen it live, this video, the symphony, brought some fucking REAL tears to my eyes. I watered up man.
A punk rock magnum opus made even cooler. Baz and his orchestra are nuts, and there’s never been a better or cooler concert at Red Rocks, in my opinion. Cheers buddy, what a feeling this song brings up.
Badass! Check my fretboard invention it’s the future of punk rock riffs. I seen nofx live in big bear. There were 50 people and I was 5 ft from stage. So personal
I was hoping for more of a reaction than a dude bouncing and lip syncing... I could have just watched the regular video... Next time give us a reason to watch your video other than what you gave us.
