RIP the two members of OMC Phil Fuemana (January 6, 1964 - February 28, 2005), aged 41 Pauly Fuemana (February 8, 1969 - January 31, 2010), aged 40 You both will be remembered as legends.
I am 66 years old. I love this song and I always have. This song, the words, music, and delivery are like no other that I have ever heard. I am a child of the 60' S and have heard lots of music in my lifetime but this song is unique. I listen to it when I need to lighten the mood. Sad to hear that Pauly passed away at a relatively young age. RIP Pauly. Killer song. How Bizarre.
Came here straight from the music video to see this awesome live performance for the first time. Then I read the comments to find out that the lead singer has passed on. Gutted. Way to ruin my nostalgic buzz. Rest in Peace, man. We still singing.....
JONO G I get the same memories what time that was actually being aloud out on our bikes to play around town with no danger of peodos or real danger. And how them summers where so much more fun to how kids of that age just sit on Xbox all day now. And the music was so much better back then.
This is a real gem. It's vague enough and specific enough to be universally relatable. It could be the wonder we feel at a beautiful day or person or something strange or unusual. So so good something like this doesn't happen often. Listen to this song, lay back with your headphones or go outside and run. Take it all in and drift away as this song takes you somewhere. Where that is I don't know but somewhere. Where? If you want to know, you know what to do! Buy the rights!
The bro had massive swag! I didn't know Taisha sang back up for him until recently either! That's awesome 💖 Cannot believe it's been 9 yrs since his passing, terribly sad 😔 RIP Pauly 💖💖💖
This is a beautiful song I really enjoyed it and I’m really sorry 😞 that mr fuemana is no longer with us may he Rest In Peace ✌️and thank you 🙏 sir for the great music 🎶
I remember waking up to this song in my first flat after a mushroom trip we all took, don't remember much about the trip but in the morning the radio was still on & went to the living room and there was dried mushrooms and fishing equipment like float's tracers hooks and shit everywhere plus a few mates,and how bizarre was playing in the back ground, stuck with me ever since & often revisit this song out of nostalgia, great song, the 90s were great times,freedom existed ,less rules, regulations,no frigging internet,we were better off for it too

🎚🎙🤓👉WE ARE REMINISCING BACK WHEN MUSIC HAD A VERY IMPRESSIVE/REALISTIC POETIC MEANING AND IT CAPTIVATED US. KEEP THIS FASCINATING MUSICAL ERA AND BEAUTIFUL MUSICAL MASTERPIECE ALIVE. ⚘😘
last week my boys ask me what music did i listen to when i was young they are 4 year old and 9 year old. I played this song now they cant stop listening to it. Lmao. this is the only song i know from this guy, its almost like he came to give us this song then fucked off somewhere never to be seen again.
I remember flying from a warm Scotland to the US, when we landed it was snowing! this song was playing as we walked up ramp to get baggage! made me smile, airport was houston! lived 10 years in the USA, this song always takes me back there.
Discovery Card picked this song up....nice! Diggin da flute. and the pick-up.... One of my fav songs today and many more ....How bizarre! God only knows. Ringmasters and elephants are Free tricks are for kids~
I was 12 yrs old when this song came out on Studio 23 channel.this song brings back a lot of memories when me and my sister fix the rabbit antena of our tv just to watch MTV Asia.Im from Philippines :)
Taken way to soon, A great band. I know this is there biggest commercial hit but they had some other great numbers. This is a great version show casing Paulys voice really well. Pretty rare to see them performing live. Only a couple of videos on youtube.
This & Marty Grosz (JAZZ ACOUSTIC Guitar Icon) are the RARE few that can let me be able to dance with pain of chemo for My Rowley 💞🕺💃💕 and a bit older 🤫 in age☺️ Thank you 🎶
How does someone come up with the idea for this song? The lyrics, sound, arrangements, everything. Just so, so special and unique.
The lyrics are actually pretty cool
Such a beautiful song... I loved this growing up as a kid in LA
How bizarre
its not unique at all but a great song nonetheless :)
I like seeing the performers, everyone has heard the song so many times. Pauly was such a charismatic dude
Imagine selling hundreds of thousands of concert tickets with this one song
not that uncommon
Actually that whole cd is great, they just never released other songs in the states
How bizarre
How bizarre
What's a concert?
Can't understand why this song is not incluided on 500 best songs of history.
I agree!
I can't understand it either. How bizarre it is.
Damn you bet me to it. 😄
That’s bizarre
The unofficial national song of New Zealand.
Not ..Slice of Heaven?
I thought the he national song was the misty mountain song
Chur Bro
It's too bad Old Zealand is a slave state.
@@tuckerbugeater huh... Where is Oold Zealand? All I can find are memes.
I was not looking for this video and ended up watching it and liking it.....how bizarre!
How Bazaar
how bizarre! how bizarre how bizarrehowbizarre!
RIP the two members of OMC
Phil Fuemana (January 6, 1964 - February 28, 2005), aged 41
Pauly Fuemana (February 8, 1969 - January 31, 2010), aged 40
You both will be remembered as legends.
Not ages at all 😢
Here Here
Where’s Phil?
I'm 63 and didn't even hear this song until about 2 years ago . Now I listen to it a few times a week when I'm working out or having a beer.
@@jackbean7195 WOW! I remember this song from when I was 10.
This man came to the earth to bring us this song, and then he left. Whatta guy
I am 66 years old. I love this song and I always have. This song, the words, music, and delivery are like no other that I have ever heard.

Sad to hear that Pauly passed away at a relatively young age. RIP Pauly. Killer song. How Bizarre.
Yeah, not many songs that i can listen to again and again and NEVER get tired of it. very easy going sound with a joyous tone and a sexy undertone
At 60 yrs of age I agree with you.
RIP ⚘
Love love Pauly Fuemana, R.I.P.
Omg he died in 2010 and I've only just found out now xx
I was 15 when this song came out (I'm now 40) and I still listen to it all the time haha.... Be blessed and keep jamming 🙏👍
Came here straight from the music video to see this awesome live performance for the first time.
Then I read the comments to find out that the lead singer has passed on.
Gutted. Way to ruin my nostalgic buzz.
Rest in Peace, man. We still singing.....
👍🏼💞🙏🏽🙏🏼🙏🏼 sorry to hear that
RIP from Toronto your music will live on forever who ever has the chance to hear this masterpiece is blessed peace everyone rip Pauly

⚘⚘
Different and unique in every way. A 90s Masterpiece.
A timeless masterpiece.
Revived in the UK by Tesco in its Christmas ad.
I was 21 years old in 1996 playing this song while driving my ram 2500 cruising down the freeway in the hot hot sun .
It's bizarre how awesome this song is.
Miss The Girl Of The Video Clip Baking Vocal
@@JoseCarlos-zr8sdI prefer this performance
He had some style. Thats for sure.
That's true.
Dude has style.
Coolest looking guy.
I was 9 or 10 years old when this was out. Serious 90s memories. Never knew the lead singer had passed away. Always reminds me of summer.
JONO G I get the same memories what time that was actually being aloud out on our bikes to play around town with no danger of peodos or real danger. And how them summers where so much more fun to how kids of that age just sit on Xbox all day now. And the music was so much better back then.
Summer of ‘96, good times.
Yessss!! Same!!
JONO G totally agree I was pretty much the same age. It seems like all the good songs was in that time.
EXACTLY! This is one song I think of when the summer would begin during the upper grades of my elementary school years. Good call!
Rip pauly. NZs most famous song!
59 seconds in when the beat drops. What a feel good summer song.
⚘
RIP Pauly. Ur music lives on
If you smell what the ROCK is cooking
This is a beautiful performance of this song
But it’s not really a Rock 🤘
@@andreatrue3054 idk about beautiful it's ok really nothing spectacular!
He does resemble Dwayne
Nothing spectacular? Go to bed.
The swag and talent this guy possessed was awesome to behold.
I love when the live performances sound as the song that you listen on radio
I wonder why... ^^
Called having talent
It shows just how talented the artist is.
RIP Pauly ! We all thank you for your beautiful everlasting work 👍🙏
OMC were an international sensation in the 90’s. RIP Phil and Pauly.
One of the Greatest hits from the 90's!

Absolutely positively one of the best songs of the 1990s God bless Pauly soul May he always be remembered to the max 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This could of been a groundbreaking genre if they explored it more with more International exposure only just found out he died and ive been a fan for years this and Steal My Sunshine are Brothers from different Mothers
I consider myself so fortunate to have grown up in the 90s.
I was about 22. I had no idea that he passed. RIP Pauly Youre gone from this world but never forgotten.
Pauly Fuemana was the rapper, Phily Fuemana was the singer, Allan Jansson was the producer, and Ermehn was the DJ. Awsome group.
🎚🎙🤓👉WE ARE REMINISCING BACK WHEN MUSIC HAD A VERY IMPRESSIVE/REALISTIC POETIC MEANING AND IT CAPTIVATED US.
KEEP THIS FASCINATING MUSICAL ERA AND BEAUTIFUL MUSICAL MASTERPIECE ALIVE. ⚘😘
I pray for him. Beautiful soul
If you wanna know more... Buy the rights.
Bra knew bank.
RIP
