Yes agreed

Losing My Religion Although Iris is a much better song

@@iliketrains3495 Oh yeah! I forgot about that one.

The best things come out of nowhere in life, and I think that’s so special.

Who is Iris? Is she a person? Or is it a reference to the flower? or the part of the eye? What is the song about?

mikeysrose The beauty of music

Reading this comment in 2020 and wondering if her fans now would even know the song. Shame.

@@ellemichelle261 same

@@ellemichelle261 I do! The Goo Goo dolls are one of my favorite bands! And I also hail from Buffalo New York where they are also from. Have a good day.

@@ellemichelle261 everyone knows this song

Same I search for Iris avril lavigne version and I saw taylor swift

Taylor swift is your favourite singer, is she? May I ask how old you are, if you don't mind telling me? I'm just curious. Thanks.

@@sweettangerines8182 I'm 22!

@@MickeySantana cool thanks 🙂

Omg iris is my fave song at the time too

The goo goo dolls that's real rock music they are still around after all these years makes real ideal rock in roll music

Honestly I’m not the hugest fan of their music, but I absolutely love this song. It never gets old

One of the best songs ever. Mad respect to Taylor for agreeing?! Huh? I’m sure it was an honor for her!

I think it'd be the other way around! Big honour for her playing one of the greatest songs ever written with the writer and rock royalty in John Rzeznik.

Also with Paramore🌺

She was actually born in 89

shes born in the 80's to be specific. But so near to the 90's

totally agree...

Johnny Rzeznik! is Lucky to be performing with Taylor Swift

yeah but .did the Goo Goo dolls write any other songs? any other hit songs or are they a "one HIt " wonder. as they say? i"m honestly curious.

@@dmlaughlin1 they wrote a lot of hits. Some before iris also. They are still making good songs.

@@dmlaughlin1 he had alot 😊 My other fave is "here is gone"

@@dmlaughlin1 Nah they wrote loads of big songs. Name was their breakout song and was everywhere for a time - some the best lyrics you’ll ever hear. Most of the big hits are from the 6th album ‘Dizzy up the girl’ which Iris is from. That album had Black Balloon, Slide and Broadway as hits. After that it is a few singles here and there like ‘Here Is Gone’. Definitely not a one hit wonder, Iris just happens to be one of the biggest songs of all time.

@@badgasaurus4211 That's right... Boy Named Goo was their best in my opinion, love that whole album. Hearing Long Way Down is what got me into them.

Ikr even I don't get bored

Neither can i this song is a classic 💚

Same... This song hits me while checking my Friendster Accnt.back then... ❤️

I'm sorry, but selling alot of records doesn't make her legit. She's a female Bieber. Pablum for the masses. You want someone female whos truly talented then go get yourself a Metric album. Or Jenny Lewis. Or Angela Pearly. Or dig out old Cheryl Crow for nostalgia

@@sdc7823 Still, Swift has a hand in ALL of her songs. Being popular to the mass and selling a lot doesn't invalidate her musicianship or talent. God.

@@kris_pang It doesn't validate it either, though. It just means she's popular with teen and young girls and I'll leave it at that. Like I said, PABLUM FOR THE MASSES

@@sdc7823 and being popular with teen and young girls is a bad thing? shes the most successful singer of your our time, i think its fair to say she has at least some level of talent.

Him bowing out for the best part of the song coupled with the second best part (the beginning) drowned out the potential for this to be legit amazeballs. It was ruined..

Did anyone know that Johnny was going to be part of the show or was it a total surprise? Also did they just do that one song?

@@dangrimes5078 he was her surprise guest for that show! They just sang iris

@@brittanip That's really cool for the people at the concert. I don't understand why they don't play at least one more since he's already there.

True

Oonga

No kidding!!! 🔥

Sadly now he under went plastic surgery if you look his song "Miracle Pill"

He will be hot at 80!!!!!

HAHAHA

Well guess what

@@thatswiftienurse13what

I love Taylor, but her voice doesn’t hold a candle to Johnny’s. Good thing she’s a crack composer.

She should join Cannibal Corpse

How come you haven’t seen him? You need to hook up man!!

God bless you and Jesus loves you

Sending you prayers

@@TheLucyblades that’s so low of you. Clearly you’re hurting too.

@@robbydelrey I've deleted my comment, I apologise.

Lol Johnny was born in the 60s! I don’t think you’re likely old enough to be his dad unless you mean you would have had him when you were 14!

@@richlisola1 Cotton Hill had some of the strongest seed in history. Even at 80 years old, he had a son. Perhaps Dr. Garrett is the same.

@@saturnianrings3920 The though of an 80 year old having sex is disgusting. I'm only in my 60's and it's pretty bad.

God bless and hope u bang taylor

That is so awesome! Love to you ❤😊

Or who's wearing more makeup.

john.

Hair? Johnny. 😊

Is that a rhetorical question? John of course

Taylor 😭

The Goos come from my neck of the woods so we had enjoyed them before they reached worldwide notoriety. We are very proud of them and they do alot for the communities whenever they come back in town.

@@morgan350 ❤️❤️💯 💯

I think it might be the vocal range of the song? Sometimes when she covers male songs she seems to sing them in the original vocal range because her vocal range is pretty close to that of a lot of male pop singers (who tend to have fairly high pitched voices (tenor/countertenor). Ex when she performed Angels with Robbie Williams. And then when she covers male rock songs, those are more likely to be by baritones in which case I think she just sings them a full octave higher than the male original? But John's vocal range seems be somewhere in between so neither approach works particular well for her?

Avril lavigne do it well and it sounds so good

I find it criminal that he didn't get to sing any part of the big chorus near the end. If they alternated the lyrics as the chorus "I don't want the world to see me - Rzeznik; " 'cause I don't think that they'd understand - Taylor", "When everything's made to be broken" - John, " I just want you to know who I am x 1 or 2" - both at once harmonizing. This would've been a great way to do some of it and you could reverse the role exchange in part of who sings which line and it would still work well. Then they end by handing the mic to the crowd to repeat it like a non alternating chorus. Then Rzeznik and Taylor Swift come in both at once again at the very end of the song's last line. This would all be sung with the power of the original creation by Rzeznik. Just my two cents on how it could've been better, although still good as is.

She absolutely did not do a good job. Real criticism is important

Have you heard avril lavigne sing it? That’s a masterpiece.

Agree haha
