My brother was a huge The Offspring fan. He passed away a few days ago... I got this cover to be played ay his funerals, he would have loved it. Such a wonderful accoustic version !

I thought no one sings this way nowadays. Everyone always tries to make a cover softer than an original using slow sad melody. And this one sounds really good.

5 years later KZfaq recommends me this video...

So good!

Am I the only one who scream "whoohoo" between verses?:p

This song always reminds me of my old neighborhood friends. There were like 10-15 of us that lived on that street. This song is so true.

This is the best cover I have heard of this song to date...I have been an Offspring fan since about 99'. My first album I got from them was Ignition, then Smash and then Americana. I even have a flaming skull logo tattoo.

I used to listen to this when I was thirteen hits a lot harder now I'm 31, epic band, epic cover.

Just 2 questions: 1) Why KZfaq recommend me this video in 2020 2) Why it's sounds so awesome

Such heart in this recording! I come back and listen again, when my life needs it, it’s like medicine

The kids weren't alright. And nobody seemed to notice.

this actually made me tear up. well done, lady. this is the song that made me pick up a guitar - and you sure did do it justice. i'm officially a fan!

Ive just listened to this 20+ times in a row! Love it

I've just started watching her she gives me goosebumps with that voice so good love 💕💕💕💕 it

This has been one of my favorite songs since 6th grade. Like 20 years ago. This is the first cover of it I've heard that I really connected with.

obsessed with this song, so glad i finally found an acoustic cover of it!!

Yesterday was worst day of my life, and then i found this cover , song from my past. I cant explain this feelin. Thnk you so much...

This is so good. Really, my favorite cover of this song. Such a beautiful tone you create with your playing and vocals. Wonderful performance, hard driving groove and flawless timing.

That was AWESOME!! That's the same way I've taught my Daughter's to cover these songs. Acoustic guitars seems to be a dying Art. Thankyou

Wow child hood memories. This was my favourite band true out middleschool. You do it really good! Thanks you!

muito bom esse seu vídeo, esta de parabéns, e canta muito bem também...parabens

Every time I come back to this I wanna like it again. So good

I loved your version... Thanks, that was fresh air to one of my favorite songs in life.

So, I discovered this by searching for acoustic covers of this song. Liked, subscribed, watching goddamn everything. Keep it up!

Flashback, childhood memories.. Thank you, Jenn.. You got a new sub!!

Amazing! You are incredible. I get goosebumps. One of my favourite songs ever.

The way you sang this gave me goosebumps.

Amazing.....the best👍👍👍offspring🎸🎶 from indonesia🇮🇩

Eu me arrepio toda vez que assisto esse vídeo. Essa menina é incrível 👏🏼🇧🇷

I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve come back to watch this. So good, keep it up!

I love when this video pops up. Never gets old. Amazing cover. Respect.

Wow, really liked your playing n singing very much. I grew up in Riyadh listening to Offspring. Bought this album on casette I reckon.. Makes you think off all them years that has passed your way, people you knew, feelings or thought you had about everything, the future. Miss them alot, miss listening to Offspring, I havent been listening to them in more than 15 years or so. thats crazy!! I guess I wanted to say that Your cover really got to me, thanks for reminding me how cool and moving that song really is. Offspring members might get older, but their music will never change, I think I just got that. Thanks this really really only brought great memmories back!! #1

Damn this song hits home hard. Reminds me of back in the day, when we were younger and had aspirations and then the crossroads came where it's either keep chasing them or go to work at the factories... I like to think I'm still chasing them while working my ass off lol. Great cover very nostalgic

Amazing voice' great cover, thanks for inspiring us Ms Jenn....

Wow....you touched me, I felt this like the first time as a teenager when I heard the song....you are amazing...thank you.

Pitch perfect. Seriously, haven't found a video that hasn't been yet. Also impressed with how much guitar work you do while vocalising, I have a huge habit of simplifying the shit outta things when I'm doing both. Well done, you gangster!

“What the hell is going on, cruelest dream reality” one of the best lyrics

How is it possible that I've discovered her just now? She's amazing.

Absolutely paid homage to this amazing song in all the right ways! Thanks for brightening our lives with this cover. Much love!

Very nice. You should do a cover of Paper Wings by Rise Against.

Спустя 8 лет, после выхода видео, мне прилетела рекомендация))) ну что ж, ютуб, спасибо. Очень круто, и играет как и поет, прям такой голос обожаю и девочка красивая. Прям настроение поднялось))) привет из Крыма)) Россия с вами

Still listening to your rendition 3 years later :) Love it

Great cover. Nostalgia overload. Everyone makes their voice sound good with editing these days, but this is pure, raw, strong vocals. Badass

sounds great. offspring been my favorite band sense 91. keep killin it hun🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

6 years later KZfaq recommends me this vídeo ♥️♥️♥️🎶

I was "WOHOO-ing" the whole time, perfect cover, it takes me back 25 years ago when I first discovered this band at the age of 10 ! 🤩🤩🤩🤩

Great job. Thats one of my favorite songs ever. Now i think i have a new favorite version.

I'd love to hear Jennifer Lost the War. Great cover!

muito bom! você tem bastante talento moça!

i love that not only she did a great cover she put her own spin on the song. great job 👏

Your voice,your Guitar,your soul....and my Dreams come true ....Amazing 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Your voice is so powerful; I'm in love

Its really good

I never get tired of coming back here and watching again and again 🤘

I was just listening to the music video version of this song by the Offspring... I decided I like this version better, so here I am. I love this!

PLEASE KEEP PLAYING WHAT EVER THEY TELL YOU IT DOESNT MATTER JUST KEEP ON MAKING THIS VIDEOS YOU ARE PURE TALENT....EVERY SONG TAKES ME BACK

I love this song. I love how you playing guitar. I love your voice. Wow you are aweseome :) Thank you so much for sharing your videos with us. God bless you. Greetings from Germany.

Absolutely Brilliant!! Incredible

....absolutely perfect

I always think people who can play guitar and sing at the same time are really talented. I "can" do both but not at the same time without messing my guitar notes or chords.

Looks like she's about to cry before singing. Actually pretty fitting because it's actually a pretty emotional song. I love this!

I love this song. So many memories.

You looked on the verge of tears during this song and it made my eyes get watery. This song is so true of how we think we will rule the world when we are going and find out it’s not that easy. Drugs suicide kids. Life is hard but you made it great today thanks

this song have me a friend starting back in 7th grade in the library

KZfaq sucks, im 9 years late

Woooww.. its been 9 years.. the best cover i ever heard.. ❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you for this . God bless you. Uplifting to say the least

Would love to hear you playing Lori Meyers

He escuchado esta canción como 200 veces en los últimos dos años

so emotional....my total respect..perfect playing!!!

Absolutely fantastic.

I saw them play at a festival a few years after this album came out (guessing 2000, X Fest in Somerset, WI?). The entire electronics system and lights went out during this song. The future was not so bright. Nicely done, by the way.

Love her face at singing, I do strange faces too at singing XD love her cover too!!

One of my favourite songs. Awesome to hear it like that, what a talent ❤️

I've been going through loads of acoustic versions of this song trying to come up with my own ideas for an interpretation. This is amazing. One of the best I've heard, including The Offspring.

you're amazing. Haven't been as excited about an artist as you since Christina Grimmie

When we were young the future was so bright The old neighborhood was so alive And every kid on the whole damn street Was gonna make it big and not be beat Now the neighborhood's cracked and torn The kids are grown up but their lives are worn How can one little street Swallow so many lives? Chances thrown Nothing's free Longing for what used to be Still it's hard Hard to see Fragile lives, shattered dreams Go! Jamie had a chance, well she really did Instead she dropped out and had a couple of kids Mark still lives at home 'cause he's got no job He just plays guitar and smokes a lot of pot Jay committed suicide Brandon OD'd and died What the hell is going on The cruelest dream, reality Chances thrown Nothing's free Longing for what used to be Still it's hard Hard to see Fragile lives, shattered dreams Go! Chances thrown Nothing's free Longing for what used to be Still it's hard Hard to see Fragile lives, shattered dreams

This is one of my favorite cover. I love this...

Love this..

This is fucking awesome

Hey esta excelente me encanto!! Mucha suerte!! (Y)

This is amazing

Love it, the best

I've been like this since I was three I've always loved depressing songs

You ever get recommended something... get a little excited because it’s fantastic only to realize they haven’t posted in 8 months and you might never get new content from this person you just discovered

Nice. Best Cover i've ever of this Song

Forgot about this song. So glad to hear it again. What a damn good song.

so like. where that record deal at for a voice and talent like this

singing, to change her wishing, by wantings, to be I, swear by missing, kissing, yesterdays wishing, in following, its all in changing, best blessing, case open bends Nice and Loud!

singing along with this gave me the goosebumps

I really like her guitar groove.. she killed it for sure.

2020 and KZfaq recommend me this now, why shouldn't it be 5 years ago?!

The best cover! Amazing song! From Brazil!
