I used to think that, but after hearing Tye Zamora explain last year their accident in Spain and how that ruined their careers... The timing was horrible, they were on a high, the accident happened and they had to stop everything to rebuild their lives. When they came back the world (and the music industry) had moved on to the next big thing and they never were able to get back on their feet. Plus all the trauma ruined the group dynamic. They were never the same anymore.
Legends? They had about 2 noteworthy songs and one of those was a terrible cover. They were a flash in the pan. When you refer to them as Legends, you are putting them in the same category as the likes of Hendrix, The Beatles, Zeppelin and Bowie....and they certainly aren't on that level.

@@davidmason4140 When they were touring Spain in 2002 they got into a really bad accident, killed the driver and left the band with a bunch of injuries
I know this is a very late reply, but U2 did this exact same thing back in the 80's...except about 30,000-40,000 people flooded downtown L.A. to see them perform Where The Streets Have No Name.
Yall are gonna laugh at me for being so emotional but this put a tear in my eye. To this day, decades later, this is still one of my fav. music videos!!! Not only was it a dope thing to do for a dope song, but I LOVED seeing how it brought all different types of ppl together. You had hardcore rappers and R&B singers/fans getting down to some Alien Ant Farm and having a blast. They were on their side, the cops just ruined the fun.....everyone was having so much fun and loving it, and that makes me smile so much!!! Alien Ant Farm will always be legends for creating such a special moment!
Rap and punk (even if AAF aren't considered "real" punk...though I don't know how anyone could claim that after they pulled this stunt) have a lot more in common than usually care to admit. I'm completely with you, seeing everyone go from "WTF?!" to "Ok, yeah...how about we just have fun together?" makes this one of the best things to ever happen. Except for how it ended...

And don't ever apologize for dropping a tear, that just means a part of your soul is still alive.
i feel like we tried a bit harder back in the day to mix genres and different peoples together. like Aerosmith and Run DMC. Those were the best of moments. Just true Artists diving deep into their passions.
I feel like if they did this in 2017 it would be waaaay overblown. As a black kid that loved rock and this band, it was pretty great to see. It also helped that Pharelle seemed to be the first to be like, yo this is dope.
Chris Sanders Yep, it would be blown out of all proportion in 2017. Odd considering there's been 8 years of Obama & the left in charge. Almost makes you think the left want to sow division?
TPQ1980 amazing what is considered left wing in American politics. I would not call Democrats left wing. On the whole they are pretty centrist. They might seem a little pushed to the left by the way that American politics has gone recently though. Getting back to the song though - very good. Just listened to Movies again and remembered what a great band they are.
Pharell was probably thinking about how he could make money off of them. I think any time he sees talent or originality or pretty much anything, he just sees dollar signs. But hey, at least he's open minded.
Shawn Crawford Thank you. Our next album should be coming out late summer. If you get a chance, LIKE our Facebook page. We appreciate the support, thanks.
I’ve always loved this video and this song. As a black kid who loved rock and hip hop this video always stuck with me The reactions from the BET Awards attendees were amazing…they just started rocking tf out 🤘🏾🤘🏾
This is the kind of energy we need today. For anyone saying that 'crashing' the B.E.T awards makes them ' racist' you clearly didn't listen to the song or see everyone's reactions. This was an artistic and positive move .
I love that all the hip hop artists were loving it too. Wish people would realise that a lot of the hip hop legends, even the ones of today, came up on a lot of rock music too. They got appreciation for the art, it'd be dope if more of the fans shared that appreciation. I started on rock music and eventually found my way to rap, but I think they are two music genres that just go hand in hand.
I didn't realize how deeply interconnected rock and rap are until I visited the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. There you learn that rock music has black cultural roots and how all music is essentially derivative of the generations that came before it. The Hall of Fame pays homage not just to great rock and roll artists (including the black artists who created rock as we know it) but also legends of rap. It was a really eye-opening experience for someone who grew up thinking about rock music as a white people thing. Music is kind of this collaborative process that spans across cultures and decades, it's pretty cool.
In case you guys didn't know: Alien Ant Farm has a limited edition beer with Packinghouse Brewing in Riverside, CA that is being released April 4th, 2020!!! I work there! ;)
@@Akichan07 IPAAF 😀 Release date was pushed back to the 11th, but they are taking PRE-ORDERS at CraftShack.com not sure how far their deliveries go, but worth looking 💕 It is a BOMB double IPA, I love it! And the packaging DOPE! Happy Survival Sips! 🥴
nice! I actually used to sell pot to the guys in AAF in Riverside they would also party with my cousins band Aetrium back in the day. Can't wait for the beer to come out.
America needs to sit down and watch this music video and also read the lyrics to the song. This is a message of unity. The division going on in America right is what sent me here.
People are too far of the edge at the moment. if something like this would happen nowdays, they would only see white people fucking up something for blacks. Everybody is searching for something to whine/scream about. Lets appreciate that we had a time, where something like this was considered funny/awesome and hope we can go back to that point.
I was actually there this day. When they filmed it... I was going through a breakup so it really cheered me up to see these guys perform my favorite song. I don't even think about her much anymore, I just think about the power of rock. BTW my grand kids like it when I play this song :D
This just goes to show that music has no race. I wish elwe could all just get along. I always close my eyes and imagine a planet where everyone cares about each other.
GetScaredGaming Lol yeah man, a decade later it is still on my top ten list of favorite Music Videos because it WAS real, and it shows how music can bring together all kinds of people..........and how rules and cops can be buzz kills sometimes. sigh-
First heard this band playing "Smooth criminal". Now 14 years later im going through their catalog. These guys rock. Surprised they were more popular. Very underrated. Glad to see their are putting out new music.
I watched the red carpet for this awards show. No one had a problem with them. They were wondering who was performing that's why they have those weird looks on their faces.
Bering in your teens is saying "This is rad, AAF shut down the entire BET Awards"! Being an adult is realizing the parent corporation owns both of these companies and this was an easy cross-promotion. Song still owns.
What did you expect from the media? Black people below weren,t shocked or like - Hey these white dudes crashed our party! Most of the celebs there were themselves performers and took it as it was - a performance. This was a time when you would have videos like that of Eve and Gwen Stefani crashing a party for old rich dudes and everybody was having a great time. The only difference was that this was filmed live, no one was directing the show and everybody was reacting naturally - i.e. puzzled and/or enjoying it. Media - then and now - had to make this into a ”crash” to sell the story. And authorities - then and now - had to ”intervene”. Heck, even MTV presented this as a ”crash”. When they went and ”crashed” the gay parade, they said ”We thought it would be funny to just go down the parade on a float, appreciating diversity and jamming on our instruments. The most negative response we got all day was [from] the [anti-gay] fanatics". So much for crashing anything...
So glad I got to grow up with bands like this such underrated Legends and there shows were the best they could every be during this time they were so big and over the top best times of my life were at shows like AAF linkin park simple plan Green Day blink 182 sun 41 and LIT and I’m glad I got to experience these bands in there prime
This video is awesome because everyone is feeling it...there isn't a big divide between rap and rock like a lot of people like to think, and aaf isn't making fun of them I think there's a lot of hip hop influence in their music and they just wanted to do something cool and fun
They are woke bootlicks to “global progressivism” rage on behalf of the machine. The center and right are the new counter culture. Not including the old neocons rinos who vote with the left now.

I remember this award show! Everyone knew them because of their smooth criminal cover and they were rocking out with them. The cops were PISSED but Everyone else enjoyed it. I hope someone does this again
@@blindsidexv6244 still doesn’t take away the fact that too many people are afraid to stand up to the system that is against them, and brings us back to the OG comment that men have no balls anymore and think exactly like you, living in fear.
Its so cool that everybody was enjoying it.. Its a shame that they were "escorted" from the premises by the police for playing good music that no one else had a problem with...
Beltran15x dude, really? you believe that? they shot scenes from rooftops before or after that show was on. police at the end was only a part of thic music video, same as this guy 'from TV'... afterall they took some shots on famous people that we're heading to this MTV or whatever show.
I like to think i get 'these days' sounds of songs. I heard a bloke voicing how we don't need stuff like this, it's depressing. I'm certified depressed sure but the ignorance i thought of this guy whom thinks 'moaning' music brings people down and we should be thankful we ain't homeless, starving, etc, oh and it will make you depressed listening to this stuff. Rant almost over, i think this guy comes across easily insensitive, probably dealing with some kind of denial and really should look at things relatively and don't think you can work everyone out as one solution fits all. Sorry, this probably should be on Facestuff or something and i wish you well.
Bruh I'm a huge hip hop head but this is amazing. I loved seeing all those rappers haha Nelly pharell bubba sparx even dame dash and bone crusher! I wonder how they all reacted. This song fricken bumps tho on life.
The -entire- crowd was moving to it and enjoying it, and yet again, cops coming in to shut it down. "Hey, those aren't rappers! They arent allowed to be here!". Still, was cool to see some of my favorite artists enjoying one of my favorite bands!
I remember hearing about this year's ago but this is 1st time actually seeing what was being talked about..After watching, this video is in the top 5 of live performances of all time and idgaf who disagree because this was 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
The bus accident put a damper on the grind touring for this album. They're still out there though, their last release of Everything That She Wants was fantastic
They were part of a transitional period between nu-metal dominating the scene and the internet/emo taking over. They're kind of nu-metal but also emo-influenced so once it went full emo/warped tour they kind of faded because they just weren't contemporary enough. That's my take on it, as someone who was 17 when their first album dropped. Once My Chem, Taking Back Sunday, ect got big on Fuse they were kind of scene as a remnant of nu-metal.

Legends? They had about 2 noteworthy songs and one of those was a terrible cover. They were a flash in the pan. When you refer to them as Legends, you are putting them in the same category as the likes of Hendrix, The Beatles, Zeppelin and Bowie....and they certainly aren't on that level.

When they went and ”crashed” the gay parade, they said ”We thought it would be funny to just go down the parade on a float, appreciating diversity and jamming on our instruments. The most negative response we got all day was [from] the [anti-gay] fanatics". So much for crashing anything...
free concert
So glad I got to grow up with bands like this such underrated Legends and there shows were the best they could every be during this time they were so big and over the top best times of my life were at shows like AAF linkin park simple plan Green Day blink 182 sun 41 and LIT and I’m glad I got to experience these bands in there prime
This video is awesome because everyone is feeling it...there isn't a big divide between rap and rock like a lot of people like to think, and aaf isn't making fun of them I think there's a lot of hip hop influence in their music and they just wanted to do something cool and fun
2024 - they just released a new song “so cold” with a new album coming in April. Support these guys! Go listen to the new song!
i did, and it's really good
The eyebrow thing at 1:34 still kills me in 2021.
The bass player is so zany. He looks like he’d be a fun guy to hang out with
Can we just acknowledge for a second that these guys crashed the Black Entertainment awards
Yesss!
classic video
Fuck yes
yep and everyone loved it and laughed about it. what's your point?
LOl imagine if they had done that in 2016
I'm black I would've love to hear them perform at the BET AWARDS
Me too
This is what Rock is about, where are our bands like this today?
They are woke bootlicks to “global progressivism” rage on behalf of the machine. The center and right are the new counter culture. Not including the old neocons rinos who vote with the left now.
Music brings peace and unity
وَأَنِيبُوا إِلَى رَبِّكُمْ وَأَسْلِمُوا لَهُ مِن قَبْلِ أَن يَأْتِيَكُمُ الْعَذَابُ ثُمَّ لَا تُنصَرُونَ
"Turn ye to our Lord (in repentance) and bow to His (Will), before the Penalty comes on you: after that ye shall not be helped
وَاتَّبِعُوا أَحْسَنَ مَا أُنزِلَ إِلَيْكُم مِّن رَّبِّكُم مِّن قَبْلِ أَن يَأْتِيَكُمُ العَذَابُ بَغْتَةً وَأَنتُمْ لَا تَشْعُرُونَ
"And follow the best of (the courses) revealed to you from your Lord, before the Penalty comes on you - of a sudden while ye perceive not

"Lest the soul should (then) say: 'Ah! Woe is me!- In that I neglected (my duty) towards Allah, and was but among those who mocked

@@alhamdleallah what are you on about?
i love how pharell was headbanging to it
kurac he was probablly one of the few that was head banging not ironically
This song randomly popped into my head this afternoon (caught myself singing it thinking; what am I singing?!?!) so here I am now listening to it.
Are these guys for real???? Oh man, I've laughed so hard! Watching this as a black person in 2021 in this racially super charged atmosphere was such a breath of fresh air! Jeez, I'm still smiling, lol. This must've been hella fun to do.
It really hits home just how much things have changed. If this was attempted in this day and age, there would be triggering from all corners.
People never once thought about race when this went on. Nowadays that’s all we think about. It’s sad how divided we’ve become.
@@WeirdorNotPodcast there is racism but it is such a minor problem that it should not even matter. media blows it up to distract us from what is really happening and sadly people still fall for it
I think we lost something along the way. We need to find that unity again, but we have to find it with each other.
@@mokomothman5713 it's called get rid of liberals that's the only way
@@WeirdorNotPodcast you can thank Obama for that. He started the race storm with his racist rhetoric.
this is the coolest thing still these days! imagine doing this nowadays you will be cut right off forever
Ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah
Making all these waves and
I wonder where the days went.
I sit and think of you I
Hope the feeling's mutual
I'm seeing all you gave and
It somehow don't seem even
Close to what I'd do
To break in two seems natural.
These days are great, there's work to do
Would you like to work with me? I'd love to work you
These days are great and so are you
I think it's something positive, and negative too
Playing all these games and
I wonder who's to blame it
I sit and think it's you
I'm sure the feelings mutual
We're growing cold
Its getting old
We should have known it's over
These days are great, there's work to do
Would you like to work with me? I'd love to work you
These days are great and so are you
I think it's something positive, and negative too
Ah ah ah ah ah
We'll be a real team

I told you...
They shocked Lil Kim, 50 cent aaaaannnddd Nelly. lol. That was dope.
*head bang* aaanndd _Nelly_
Eliezer Rolon and snoop dog
and killer Mike too
I remember this award show! Everyone knew them because of their smooth criminal cover and they were rocking out with them. The cops were PISSED but Everyone else enjoyed it. I hope someone does this again
No band nowadays has the balls to pull something like this off anymore.
Well I mean can you blame anyone for that lol they would probably get canceled in todays pussified oversensitive society
@@blindsidexv6244 true that.
@@blindsidexv6244 still doesn’t take away the fact that too many people are afraid to stand up to the system that is against them, and brings us back to the OG comment that men have no balls anymore and think exactly like you, living in fear.
@@GloryFit lol yeah ok tough guy.
I think the Foo Fighters have something to say....
Just seen them in concert last night....still kicking ass!!!!
About to go see them in Vegas
Its so cool that everybody was enjoying it.. Its a shame that they were "escorted" from the premises by the police for playing good music that no one else had a problem with...
They sang the song over and over again to get the footage they wanted. That's why eventually shut em down.
Beltran15x dude, really? you believe that? they shot scenes from rooftops before or after that show was on. police at the end was only a part of thic music video, same as this guy 'from TV'... afterall they took some shots on famous people that we're heading to this MTV or whatever show.
riesabass atleast you not being naive about it...idk if u right but most likely.
riesabass Im bout to google dis
riesabass
Played the song 2+ times, cops where not 'in on it'. Band was later released with no charges.
they just dont make music like this anymore.. FUCKING LEGENDS
Was 7 years old when listen this masterpiece...
Now am 20
Thumbs up if you think Alien Ant Farm has the best music videos of all time!
When I had panic disorder this music was a point of my life. Those days were hard. This music is so great
I like to think i get 'these days' sounds of songs. I heard a bloke voicing how we don't need stuff like this, it's depressing. I'm certified depressed sure but the ignorance i thought of this guy whom thinks 'moaning' music brings people down and we should be thankful we ain't homeless, starving, etc, oh and it will make you depressed listening to this stuff. Rant almost over, i think this guy comes across easily insensitive, probably dealing with some kind of denial and really should look at things relatively and don't think you can work everyone out as one solution fits all. Sorry, this probably should be on Facestuff or something and i wish you well.
Such an amazing band. They still don't get enough credit for what they brought to the industry.
One of my sons and my favorite videos. We loved the reaction.
Bruh I'm a huge hip hop head but this is amazing. I loved seeing all those rappers haha Nelly pharell bubba sparx even dame dash and bone crusher! I wonder how they all reacted. This song fricken bumps tho on life.
Black folks appreciate EVERYTHING!!! This was an amazing reception.
The -entire- crowd was moving to it and enjoying it, and yet again, cops coming in to shut it down. "Hey, those aren't rappers! They arent allowed to be here!". Still, was cool to see some of my favorite artists enjoying one of my favorite bands!
+Ryan Shirley they got through 3 or 4 playthroughs of the song before they got shut down :)
So happy these guys are making music again now!
My favorite thing about this is they all started vibing to aaf🤗😎
Love all the artists attending the award show just vibing with the music 👌🏻👌🏻
this still holds up as one of the all time greatest music videos
I remember hearing about this year's ago but this is 1st time actually seeing what was being talked about..After watching, this video is in the top 5 of live performances of all time and idgaf who disagree because this was 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
these dudes made good music.... wish they kept the grind !
The bus accident put a damper on the grind touring for this album. They're still out there though, their last release of Everything That She Wants was fantastic
they actually just released a new song a few weeks ago called "So Cold" and it's actually pretty good, i'd check it out
So sick. Legendary stuff
Underrated band. This song is a jam
I Don't really like this genre of music but I could listen to this band all day long... one of the best vocalist ever...
Just seen this for the first time. Awesome!!
Alien Ant Farm Bring Us On Tour!!!!
I love how at the beginning everybody is like what the fuck, and then halfway through they are all loving it. Good music is good music.
can not wait to see these guys October 1st. rock in the early 2000's kicked ass. Make America Rock Again tour was a great idea.
Literally saw them last night here in Norfolk. AWESOME LIVE MUSIC! You're going to have a blast.
thanx man do you remember the order the bands played?
i used to live in Chesapeake saw alot of bands at the Norva.
I do remember. 12 Stones, Tantric, Crazy Town, Alien Ant Farm, Saving Abel, Saliva, and Trapt. Norva was a great venue.
Billy Bob same order in Columbus,Ga September 25
When the world' needs them more then ever now..
Still the most rock thing ever to be done especially at the BET awards
12 years and still amazing. This song must be timeless.
Pretty sure this is the best video I've ever seen lmfao
Back when people could get along
Madden 2004 brought me here.
The song keeps me here.
Pharrell's reaction at 1:20
Lol he still looks the same today! And Nelly as well. Though he got rid of the plaster.
I know he look's like he realizes it's actually good haha
love his reaction, he know's its good music. he's awesome!
What year did he start NERD, I feel like he got part way inspired by this
Astro Blip The first album was released in 2001, so he already knew good music when this happened.
Everyone was having a great time. Fun music brings people together :)
Agreed. Definitely need more of that these days.
Ugh I miss the early 2000’s damn...
one of my favorite songs
Man 2020 makes this video so much more rock and roll
Best music at the whole event.
THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC MOMENTS IN MUSIC HISTORY. I relish and laugh almost to the point of tears every time I watch this (way too often). 🌹🏆
how these guys were not massive I will never know. Even live they have insane energy
They were part of a transitional period between nu-metal dominating the scene and the internet/emo taking over. They're kind of nu-metal but also emo-influenced so once it went full emo/warped tour they kind of faded because they just weren't contemporary enough. That's my take on it, as someone who was 17 when their first album dropped. Once My Chem, Taking Back Sunday, ect got big on Fuse they were kind of scene as a remnant of nu-metal.
This song was so good it made it on to the ST for Madden 2004
the games soundtrack was legendary
