The Offspring - "Pretty Fly for a White Guy" - "Come Out and Play" - "Gone Away" - "Why Don't You Get a Job?" - "You're Gonna Go Far, Kid"

Gone Away is a hard one to listen to, but it's so incredible. His vocals in this song are so visceral and raw. Such a stunning song from The Offspring for sure and it MUST be listened to!!!!

"Gone Away" is like an arrow to the heart every time. Like, legit tears.

Couldn’t imagine there is a person in the Western Hemisphere over 25years old that doesn’t know this song. And for 50% of the 35+ olds this is a tune that defined their youth :)

“Come out and play” by Offspring is the next logical choice.

Still saying you need to hear “Gone Away” or Race Against Myself” by The Offspring

"Bad Habit" is a good song to listen to when your stuck in traffic.

Just listen to the entire "Smash" album. It's so fantastic. Really, all their music is great.

You should listen to “You’re gonna go far, kid” by the Offspring next!

Still recommend "Gone Away" and "Gotta get away". 2 of my favs.

This and "The kids aren't Alright" shows how introspective this Punk Rock Band really is.

On his voice “not trying” its not really deiberate, but this is a little older Offspring - its rough asf round the edges and it fits their style perfectly.

Gone Away by Offspring is a good song to try next

"Bad habit" homie! Its one og my fav Offspring songs..its just short an sweet and right to the point 🔫 🚗

“Why Don’t You Get a Job”. Obviously inspired by The Beatles “Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da”.

The way he says "Right?!" at the suffering shows you really care really sounds to me like he's trying to justify his actions to himself. I love the line "I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb/I'm just a sucker with no self esteem"

He should just do a react to this entire album. This is one of the album's that defines my generation. Genocide, Come Out and Play, Kill Boy Powerhead. Bad Habit, and the best and title of the album SMASH!

The lead singer, Bryan "Dexter" Holland is an actual mathematics genius. He was the valedictorian at a very large high school in CA, and has a PhD in molecular biology from USC, and his doctoral thesis that concentrated on the HIV virus was titled "Identification of Human MicroRNA-Like Sequences Embedded within the Protein-Encoding Genes of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus". He's also an accomplished pilot who did a 10-day around the world flight. He's definitely not some brain dead lead singer without any prospects after his musical career ends, and he and the rest of the band have been smart enough with their money to not need to work on anything that they don't want to work on. It's quite a rarity in music.

There needs to be one comment suggesting "Come Out And Play" instead of a hundred that each have 5-10 likes. That one and "Self-Esteem" are the two songs that kicked off their popularity when they arrived. A few years later, a big hit with "Pretty Fly For a White Guy," and then I don't know anything else by them. They may have a hundred other great songs, but those three are the ones that are very well known from radio/video play. Like... people that don't even want to follow The Offspring know the three big ones.

How can someone alive in North America and have not heard this song? This song was everywhere in the 90's

Soooo many great songs from them! “you’re gonna go far, kid”, “original prankster”, “want you bad”, “why don’t you get a job?”, “pretty fly for a white guy”, “can’t repeat”, among soooooo many others. There’s a reason they’re considered a legend among punk bands.

My favourite Offspring song is “Gone Away”. Also love the following: Come Out and Play Bad Habit Pretty Fly Genocide Million Miles Away Want You Bad

"All I want" is really underrated and my favorite song of the band

"Nitro" "Bad Habit" "Gotta Get Away" "Smash" "You're Gonna Go Far, Kid"

I think you'd like the song Gone Away by the offspring, Alex

The Offspring - "Come Out And Play" and "Staring At The Sun"

"Late at night she knocks on my door She's drunk again, and lookin' to score..." When I was in my early twenties I dated a girl who's married friend started showing up at my apartment at all hours of the night, drunk and looking for a good time.

The Offspring - 1) "Come out and play" 2) "Bad Habit" 3) "Pretty fly for a white guy". Can't go wrong with those songs Alex

Duuuude “Gone away” the original my OFFSPRING then FFDP’s cover of it! Same song two very different meanings

"Gone Away" by The Offspring.

And yeah "the more you suffer the more it shows you really care, right? Yeah" Is that mentality that the other person will see that and appreciate you except we all know that ain't happening.

"The more you suffer, the more it shows you really care, right?". Pure poetry annd 100% accurate for the person getting used.

“Want you bad” is my all time favourite.

100% you have to do offspring: "pretty fly for a white guy" "You're gonna go far kid" Both are equally my favorites!!

Offspring'ComOut and Play" yesssss!!!

One of my favorites. The entire Smash album is killer. Not a bad song on it. I listen to it regularly. Going on 26 years.

I love this song and I love The Offspring. You need to listen to ‘Come out and play’ on the Smash album 💿

Come Out and Play (Keep 'em Separated), Hammerhead, You're Gonna Go Far Kid...all worth a listen.

This song makes me think about my early teenage years where I was depressed and I was bullied a lot and after school I would go to my room and start up my slow computer and listen to music by myself to vibe out m. This song made me feel like I wasn’t alone as I was in a similar situation up with many reoccurrences until I was 28. When I saw Offspring twice this was the final song both times and I screamed out every word. Sorry to the people next to me

How could you have not heard this song sooner. It was so popular in the 90s amongst angsty teens. I grew up on this shit.

Favourite Offspring song has to be “The Meaning of Life”

“Want You Bad” - Not one of their bigger hits, but the premise of the song always makes me laugh (it’s not what you think 😈). Haha

This song really spoke to me 25 years ago. I felt every lyric deep in my soul. It was the start of a journey toward better self-esteem and more confidence. It's easy to feel alone when you're in those situations and hearing a song like this did me a lot of good.

Love your channel bro! Big shout out from South Africa!

You have to hear Gone Away, man. One of the saddest songs ever

You’re Gonna Go Far Kid and Dividing By Zero/Slim Pickens Rides the Bomb to Hell are both great picks for the next bout with this band

Gone Away. It's their hidden gem. You'll love the lyrics.

"The Offspring - Hit that" is a must! Completely diffrent, but just amazing!

I'm so happy that you are reacting to punk classics! The Offspring's song "Come Out And Play" is another awesome one!

My favorite song is probably the band's shortest one: "All I Want".

I remember just wailing/screaming along to this song on a nighttime road trip with my friend laughing hysterically in the passenger seat. And I’m a girl. Just a fun, funny banger.

"No Hero" and "Jennifer Lost the War" are a couple of ultra rad songs from their old school albums. "Slim Pickens Does the Right Thing and Rides the Bomb to Hell" is a fantastic one of their songs from this past decade. They also have a new album dropping in 2021, so be ready to get to hear their stuff new.

Could you react to “I’m not ok” by: My Chemical Romance

Next when to check out is "Come Out and Play".

This is the very first Offspring song I ever heard. I've been hooked ever since. Such a great punk/ surfer band.

From way back in the day, my fave - and totally relatable - Offspring song was 'She's Got Issues (and I'm Gonna Pay)'.

"Gone Away" or "Come out and Play" are two great ones to check out.

Oldie: The Offspring - Dirty Magic Get blown: The Offspring - Smash 🤙

"well I know I should say no, but It's kinda hard when she's ready to go" Always loved the double meaning there.

Omg your amazing!! Love ur intro. ❤

For the Offspring- "Keep'em Separated" is the song. First tune I heard by them back in the day.. Peace Alex!

Please do more punk, the clash, dead kennedys, Ramones, misfits etc. Would recommend London calling or holiday in cambodia

“You’re Gonna Go Far, Kid” hands down, no question

Love these guys !!!!

"Gone Away" and "You're gonna go far, kid" for sure!

“Tourniquet” by Evanescence PLEASE!

This is an oldie and yes i love it!!! Have a great Christmas !!!!!!

Listening to the Offspring is how I learned how to play bass by ear! Love it!

I’d love to hear your reaction to Gone Away by The Offspring.

Anything off that album “Smash” is killer but start with “come out and play”

loved this from day they dropped it! love love love they did this from the 'guys' POV!! thanks for the reaction Alex!

“I choose” or “come out and play” are quality

"Original Prankster" is probably one of The Offspring's most fun songs. Especially the music video for it!

Any song from this album "smash" is a good song to react to..

I wish you got to see the official video for this! It's pretty cool! Eval Knievel is even in it! I first heard and saw this on Sing Star. Ah, the simpler times. XD

Fun fact: While recording this one on Epitaph record "studio" Dwxter was accualy lying flat on a sofa and just sang along...Talking about laying back, right?

Now we need some sublime, blink 182 and green day songs. All 3 great bands in the offspring genre.

Alex: do a 2 for one... Gone away. (Offspring) Gone away (5 finger death punch)

seen them 4 times and they always close with that song. they are so fun live. will see them every chance i get

“Hit that” and “original Prankster” are some awesome songs by them too.

“Gotta Get Away” in my opinion, is the best song The Offspring has put out

Green Day "Dookie" and Offspring "Smash" are the pinnacle of mid 90's music. Every single person I knew had both of those albums. Amazing!

Merry Christmas, Alex. Sometimes your positive comments are exactly what I need and really make my day.

Love this song but my favorite song by them Is ur gonna go far kid n merry Christmas bro

As a beginning guitarist, THIS is a very, VERY easy song to learn. No solo, just rockin' punk rhythm. You'll have some quick fun with this one. When you're ready for something a little faster, their song "Genocide" is a good one. My favorite Offspring song of all time is a tough, tough call... It'd be like a 10-plus-way toss-up. Dirty Magic is way, way up there on the list... Want You Bad, Tehran, Bad Habit, Da Hui, Why Don't You Get A Job?, Gone Away, Beheaded... tons more, really. I'm a huge fan, since I started listening to them in 1995 or so.

If you haven't, check out "She's Got Issues." As a bonus, the music video stars a young Zoey Deschanel.

as for favorite songs that span time "You gotta keep 'em separated" is the Offspring song everybody has a special place for..

Staring at the sun is my all time favorite Offspring song.

The song has deep irony in it.. The way he sings the more you suffer the more it shows you really care.. Pauses.. Right??!!! Yeahh!!

Gone away is one of their best songs, so emotional

This was my teenage years, back in the mid to late 90s. Back when these songs were new lol. I'm 40 now and still love them

Totally relate to this song. Late at night, she knocks on my door part, I lived that for real.

"Kristy, are you doing ok" by the offspring is a hidden gem of their's

This is one of my favs. This song is more like what The Offspring are about. The other song was heavier lyrically. Come Out and Play, Gone Away, Gott Get Away, She's Got Issues, Pretty Fly for a White Guy and Original Prankster are great too. If you want some fun songs then try Why Don't You Get a Job, Had habit, I want you bad, Worst hangover ever, Spare me the details, I choose and It's cool to hate. The offspring have a lot of humor and sarcasm in their lyrics but occasionally their lyrics can be a bit heavier like Gone Away, Kristy, are you doing okay? and The Kids aren't alright.

Amazing song, so relatable

You seem like a nice guy, Alex. I like your videos, keep them coming. Btw, Happy Christmas! :D

My favorite Offspring’s song is “Defy You”

so many to recommend "Million Miles Away" "Original Prankster" "She's Got Issues" "(Can't Get My) Head Around You" to name but a few

Moving back to h town. Love ur channel

Self-esteem is my favorite song from the offspring I really enjoy listening to there songs
