I have listened to the black dog a hundred times but didnt realize she was saying the starting line. Im 38 and loved this band so much as a teen. I even met them in 2002 when thy opened for another band. I havent thought of them in years so this has me feeling so msy things☺
I remember seeing The Starting Line live in Louisville, KY at some festival, and Ken the lead singer says, "So has anyone here heard of us before?!?" I proceeded to scream my drunken lungs out from the front row(most others said nothing because it was mostly metalish bands). Ken then directly points at me and says, "Well, at least this guy has...but he won't remember it tomorrow." I still remember that like yesterday and it still makes me laugh thinking about it. So fuck you, Ken, I remembered and TSL is still one of my favorite bands
Punk rockin' on July 31st, 2024, still going strong. I used to play Counter Strike and skateboard after school back in the old days. 🤟🏻💯🙋🏻♂️ -When someone liked one of my comments from back then, I would go check out the actual video.
its really hard to do this type of music anymore. you'd have to actually stand for something, and have the patience to be able to play an instrument and do it for the love of the music
True. I have those nostalgic memories of pop punk and friends who I once loved who I sadly haven't seen in many years, but I'm sure we can all relate to that.
Don't leave me without saying goodbye Without saying goodbye You and I, cold February night It's been a half an hour Taking sweet time saying our goodbyes One minute more, go!! The best day of my life is all thanks to you Precious remembrance saved for rainy days on February Few scenes from my life where moments mean more to me Than our fine nights, I remember like yesterday, the time of my life Please don't leave me without saying goodbye Without saying goodbye Please don't leave me without saying goodbye Without saying goodbye Lets travel back in time Two-twelve-ninety nine at the stroke of midnight Holding you tight, your body and mine, in February Few scenes from my life where moments mean more to me Than our fine nights, I remember like yesterday, the time of my life Please don't leave me without saying goodbye Without saying goodbye Please don't leave me without saying goodbye Without saying goodbye Please don't leave me without saying goodbye Without saying goodbye Please don't leave me without saying goodbye Without saying goodbye Lets travel back in time
The Starting Line have always been included in my playlist but I'll listen to them the whole day today as a swiftie and TSL fan. Man, I forgot the sweet ending of this MV😂
@@xSergioRottenx People will forever intertwine and confuse Pop Punk with Emo. Perhaps Starting Line has some "emo" songs (I didn't listen to them enough growing up). This song though, definitely not. I wish people would know the difference, haha.
When I found this song it hit me on a different level. I went to my first high school dance my senior year with a girl I just started talking to February 11th 2017. Everything was beautiful and I lost my virginity to her at midnight February 12th I never thought I would have a song that holds such a special place for me for the rest of my life. Things didn’t workout the way I planned a year later and it ended around the same time in 2018. If you love someone try to fix things thank you the starting line!
So I heard Best of Me and then I heard this one and I'm like THE STARTING LINE HAS DONE IT AGAIN!!! This music just has every likable trait. You can't dislike this nor the video itself. Nostalgia moments once I hear the chorus and the instrumental and those drums. Ahhhhh such great times back then. 2000's please come back. WE NEED YA BACK!!!
Agreed 100%! I feel like you would dig us if you love the 2000's style! We're slowly building our youtube presence, but type our name in on Google and check us out if you have a moment. =) We'd really appreciate your opinion!
Green Light Theory I did check you guys out. AWESOME SOUND!! Love your music. Definitely my type of music to listen to. I'll be supporting you guys from now on :D
That's awesome news! Thank you so much for taking the time to listen to us =) we're working on a lot of new songs with similar feel to hopefully release later this year! Very lucky to have your support! We're on almost every social media and love to connect with our fans so don't be afraid to chat with us!
this song got me through mid-teenage years, though it was released 2 years before i checked it. still. now i work in an office of a boring financial services job.
I’m just starting to get into the starting line, I felt like I slept on some good ass music and wish I I could’ve jam to them in my high school days but better late than never, I’m 29 now and this music hits different and feels so nostalgic at the same time ❤️
This is how I said good bye to my college sweetheart, who I found out had been cheating. It wasn't just once, it was repeated, and one of the guys was in 2 of my classes. My graduation gift to her was a custom made frame of the 2 of us kissing on the beach at our senior year party in Ocean City MD. We were in the parking lot of the apartment complex helping each other move out. I finished before her and said I had a gift for her. Gave it to her, while playing DJ Sammy We're In Heaven acoustic. She started crying. Then I took out a folder and said I have something even more special for her. She opened the folder and inside of it was all of the proof that my friend gave me of her cheating, including pics of a friend of friend who saw her at parties. Her hands started shaking and she fell to the ground crying. I asked which was more important to her, what was in the frame or what was in the folder. She started crying profusely, balling on the ground like a child, and said she doesn't know. So I made the decision for her, took the picture frame, smashed it on the ground next to her, and drove off. She wrote me an email a decade later later saying how sorry she was for hurting me, yada yada. It's funny how cheaters change their tune years later when their cheating catches up to them, and they insist on reaching out to people they have hurt in the past a means of validating their repentance. I told her good riddance. I am happily with someone who opened my eyes to what true love really is. I will forever remember this song because of that
Amazing story, and nice OCMD reference. Did you go to school in southern/eastern PA? Or in MD or VA? And nice 311 reference in your username! They're my all-time favorite band.
There's a place for these songs (and the feelings that go with them) but we have to grow from it. It's tempting to chase whispy nostalgia but there's too much goodness ahead to linger for too long.
This really has to be from one if not, the best album I've ever heard. That's right I'll have to say it like i mean it when i tell you it's say it like you mean it. Alright that was cheesy, but I haven't gotten enough of it for these past damn near 2 months.
@@teecasintern5396 They can mesh, but this lacks basically all that makes an emo song. If lyrics equalled emo, then half the fucking country songs in existence would be emo.
my boyfriend and I first made out to this song... that was in 2002... now we're married, still in love as much as we were in highschool... oh man does this bring back so many memories
Hey Sara, if you wanna feel 16 always, try giving us a listen if you want some new (old styled) music to jam out to! We're a new-ish band with similar influences like The Starting Line, Brand New, Yellowcard, etc... =) greenlighttheory.com
This was the first band I saw when I first entered high school in the mid2000s. Had the flyer for that show on my binder until I graduated. I love this band.
+Chaz Gunther i actually bought 2 copies of this a couple weeks back, it was expensive but WORTH IT, i play it on rotation still, might buy another copy
They are probably one of a very few musicians who didn't make one bad song. I swear if one of there songs comes on popular one or not I know I'm gonna end up rock out to it
Love how I just found this band and thought it was only thought it was a year old. Glanced at the date and realized that it was 2003. Realized it was 2014. 11 years....
