“I've lived for years without a life”

[theMemphisSnuggler]

CKY is always nostalgic for me. Brings me right back to high school.

[Deznuttz]

This song walked with my sadness as a youth and now at 40 it brings me happiness. Wild ride

[AGRGTR]

They'll never be another time like how we had it back when CKY ruled the world....

[dmnck]

This song hits hard now that I'm an adult.

[cheapentertainmentvideo]

Not one vape or smartphone in sight, just people living in the moment. This video makes me miss the 2000's.

[brandonlove]

For those that are still with us, I'm so proud of you.

[CrashMk]

When the song is so relevant, it's like a gut punch.

[alexanderheimer]

This is more than a band!! this music, these guys, the skiing, and the cky videos defined my childhood. the music represents an entire chapter of my life. and I will listen to cky forever!!!

[jacobrobinette-ye]

I found CKY early 2023 and i gotta say they are now one of my favourite bands, such a nostalgic and unique sound.

[ImOldGreggg]

This song reminds me of everybody I lost, sometimes even myself. Once again, it proves, Infiltrate, destroy, rebuild is a perfect album. You'll mosh and cry

[jeremyelkins]

I can’t describe the feeling this song gives me

[obamadontreadgood]

Good times. Good friends. Good memories attached to this song. So glad to hear a remaster

[Tommorows-Dream]

I re-discovered CKY earlier this year, and oh my god im so happy that i did! I used to love them when i was about 6, and now i've somehow started listening to them again 7 years later! This song is probably my favourite, i love it so much!!

[SuggestiveGaming]

I’ve watched this video hundreds of times over the years but only JUST realized it was shot at The Rave in Milwaukee, WI.

[themeltedmoon]

I started listening to CKY when I was 11 years old while surfing the waves of Kazaa downloading rock music.

I gotta say, Infiltrate.Destroy.Rebuild shaped me into the adult that I am now, because it just completely fueled my love for rock.

Those days of being a 6th grade misfit kid listening to this album on repeat are etched into my memory forever. I'd hide out in my room burning incense, laying on my bed just getting lost in the lyrics and riffs. Writing in my diary about things I wanted to do with my life and about things I really didn't understand about myself yet. I didn't realize I truly had no real worries at that time, but being hormonal and 11 and branded a loser back then meant my life was over, of course.

I was a tomboy with short hair and wearing band tees and baggy jeans. Walls lined with handmade posters. Obsessed with the world of skating, rock and roll, and the jackass crew. I wanted to find my place in the world so badly. I had big dreams for just being a young kid and no way to reach them yet.

I wish I could go back in time to that sad lonely girl and tell her she was just too cool for kids her age to really relate to. But since I can't, I'll just say my thankyous to Deron, Chad, Jess, and Vern.

They made me feel not so alone. 🤘

[newtownbelievers]

Saw them in London in 2003. V similar to the gig in this vid. This song came on and me and my partner were like, 'it's our song!' And stood in the crowd, me in his arms. Turns out 'close yet far' isn't a good boast for a relationship lol. But our son I was pregnany with at the time grew up to be a huge CKY fan, so winner winner...

crazy how the meaning and vibe of this song morphs along through your life. cheers
