I sat in a random pizza shop today and heard this playing and was so shocked to hear this song playing OUTSIDE of this old Cartoon Network clip. I didn't know anyone else on this planet even knew this song.
I had an old vhs of recorded cartoon network since I didn't have cable. This was on it and it just came on my spotify "discover weekly". Awesome coincidences lol.
I remember seeing this in December 1998, mid-day on a Saturday on Cartoon Network. Was totally mesmerized by it. Lyrics of the song hit way harder as an adult.
I love how every song from CN Groovies feel so "indie", like, for example the guitars are usually not perfectly tuned and gives the feeling of being a garage band, they're just fantastic 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I have for years just had to remember the names of these songs Never knowing they were a collection called CN Groovies!! Thank you so much for that!! I hope your days are filled with as much joy as this has brought me lol
This is that song, where unexpectedly - you entered the multiverse of nostalgia, and everyone else is exactly where they're supposed to be , including you .
I remember this little "music moment" coming on at like 2 am. Back in 2000 It would come on during or after the Toonami Midnight Run. Before adultswim was created, this was part of cartoon networks strategy to keep the interest of their aging audience
comment from the future (it's dark in here): i find it funny that i liked the song back then just as much as I do now. Just then i didnt get it (but got the whole "oh, they're going in a loop") but now get the entire song sort of
I was deep into this music, I really enjoyed that short based on the song alone. I had to have been 10 or so. When I learned what Soul Coughing was a decade later, I downloaded their entire discography. One of my favorites.
I kept saying "walk around in circles" for the longest time when I was like 6 years old. I only found this again like a year ago, and when I did it's like my entire 6 year old life just rushed back into memory. It's amazing how small things are capable of doing that.
Static Announcement dude I know it’s 5 years later, but I remember sitting in my grandparents living room, eating sour skittles and watching boomerang all day because he had this channel. So glad someone posted thid
Same for me, I always remembered the main part of the song but never the origin, when I was in kindergarten and first grade I would always sing the main part since I watched boomerang a lot.
Wow, it's crazy that when I young I only understood the hook, but I finally get it. It was a awesome era for cartoons for me and others. I don't think CN could bring back that history even if they try. There was something about being a kid at that time that just made everything great. I know all of people are saying that the kids of the recent era are missing out but really maybe they've got something already to cherish that we won't understand just like our parents didn't get too. Remember the good times guys just because is not on the airwaves doesn't me we haven't forgotten it
Brings a tear to my eye of my childhood long gone. I still collect and watch the shows I used to watch growing up. Alot of them really hold up well. The writing seemed so simple, but the underlying jokes were spot on. I really miss it. I hope in some alternate universe, the 90's never ended. The last great decade.
Nah. The 90s and early 2000s were the last good era. Everything. Even the moral ground we all took for granted. This generation will be the last generation. And everything is digital and gay. This era fucking sucks.
@@hollandtunnel1041 Die mad about it, I guess. The world's gonna go on without you and your childhood wasn't any better or more special than anyone else's. You dad complained about how "cassettes just don't have the same sound as records" and your grandad hated that recordings "ruined the value of live music," all the way back to the first caveman who grunted about how "fire no good for younglings, makes weak and stupid-bad."
@@hollandtunnel1041Agree, you can see and feel the societal decay reaching it's apex now, the songs and shows and artists have no lasting power and are either boring or full of degeneracy. What a sad state, thankfully we can relive our memories at least
This song is actually pretty accurate to represent these 60s cartoons. Because I don't know if any of you noticed a lot of times the characters in these shows looked like they were walking around circles because they would repeatedly pass the same items and setting.
@@pedrogabrielduarte4544 That's what happens when technology is more limited. But they made it work somehow, because they were geniuses like that. Reminds me of Metal Gear Solid 3 in that regard. Having the whole game take place in the 60's, 40+ years before the rest of the series, limited tech is just something you gotta deal with if you want to succeed. Yet we're able to wrack our brains and find solutions to problems that we can't rely on tech to solve for us.
+Im Neebs I Killed Titanus...Twice Where I currently live, it might as well have been the 90's until the internet came around. literally nothing changed...
My dog just passed away yesterday.. I remember seeing this on TV with him sitting next to me on the sofa when I was little.. Those were the best days of my life.
This song reminds me of waking up at 3 am, 10 years old, my Mother was still alive, my Father was sober and a good man. Life was good, and I had a plethora of Nintendo 64 games
One of the best things about early CN is they didn't have any real commercial breaks. Instead they had lots of stuff like this. If I remember right, breaks in the show were short and few, and longer stuff like this ran between shows. I definitely remember LOTS of fade-outs meant for ad breaks going right to the fade-in instead.
From a time when Cartoon Network was producing some really great stuff. I miss those times. It and the anime seen on Adult Swim and Toonami made for a great day.
when ur dumb enough to think these barely moving cheaper than shit cartoons from the 50s are somehow better than the thoughtful well animated content CN puts out now
Myles i know, right!? hanna-barbera started the decades long trend of low quality cartoons. the only reason anything decent came up in the 90s is because someone at Nickelodeon decided to greenlight ren & stimpy and rockos modern life.
I love how a lot of the "throwback" Groovies had this kind of self-contemplative air about them. Sometimes it was more esoteric, like here where the whole thing is basically commentary on H-B's epidemic reuse of animation and walk cycles to bulk out runtime, and sometimes it was more direct. "Jabberjaw" being a direct commentary on the "Let's Try To Re-Release Scooby-Doo Seventeen Times" phenomenon, or "Meet The Flintstones" being basically a bunch of Flintstones trivia set over a remix.
Something about this music/song, just brings a splash childhood memories. Tears flow down my face as I remember all the awesome times I had being a kid. Hanging out playing Smash Bros. 64 and watching cartoons. :'(
Right there with ya, bucko. Just remember that everything looks better in retrospect. 10 years from now you're gonna turn right now into some nostalgic wonderment. Trippy, I know.

Jake Tucker it really is. I mean the cartoon characters notice how when they walk straight, they seem to go back. that's one of the most clever things Cartoon Network has ever done
I remember in 2000 or 2001 my friend told me about this video, but we didn't have CZcams or anything back then, so I just hoped I would see it. He made it seem really good. It was years later that I remembered it and saw it here. Here's to you, Cody. This reminds me of you.
I've seen Soul Coughing live I've got autographs from Mike Dodi and I knew what the song is about but seeing my favorite childhood characters live it speaks volumes man old school Cartoon Network was something else
For those who don't understand completely: Back then shows in the 90s use to have to cut corners when it came to animation, so they used what I term "looped animation", where if a character would move rapidly in a scene instead of going from frame to frame they'd simply move the background.

The only time they were allowed to go past the usual budget in cartoons is in movies; it's why in a lot of 90s movies the coloring, animation, and sound are always a tad better. Thankfully nowadays animation is booming, so the average movie of the late 90s is now the average worst movie of the 2010s.
I watched this on boomerang with my friend when I was staying over at his house at like 3am. We were mesmerized and watched the whole thing. To this day, I still catch myself seeing it in my head. Core memory I guess.
@@dingovory I always used to think 'man, these old people always saying "that was great... can't believe it was 20 years ago"... if it's that old they should just forget about it.' and now I'm in that same boat. Man... I can't believe Boomerang started over 20 years ago. And I REALLY can't believe it's been gone for 6! Kids born when Boomerang ended are now in school... STOP!
Escuché esta canción y Rolling siendo muy niño, como de 5 a 8 años mas o menos, ahora tengo 23 y esta banda debe ser una de mis favoritas de toda la vida, que buena música hacían la ptm
More like 1991-2008. Adult swim has been the only good thing about the channel along with toonami revival since then. We really had it good with late 80s,90s, and early 00s cartoons.
I saw this a bunch on Boomerang as a kid and thought it was a good song Here I am at 30 and I’m just now realizing it’s poking fun at walk cycles of the old Hanna Barbera cartoons
This video and "Rolling" on the old cartoon network is what turned me on to Soul Coughing. Those were fun times, staying up all night watching CN and getting messed up!
They're still one of my favourite bands. Much gratitude to the people that made these 'Groovies.' They also turned me onto Pain (now known as Salvo), who are also one of my favourite bands. ^^
THIS UPLOAD IS A GODSEND! I remember seeing this on Boomerang back in late 2007 (I can't remember which reruns it was sandwiched under) but I had not seen it since. I am so happy to have stumbled upon it here so many years later at the age of 26.
Yo this song has been stuck in my head since I was young/whenever this aired. But this is one of the only songs I heard one time and never forgot the lyrics. Love this
ahh back when Cartoon Network could always get awesome bands to play their awesome songs, good times! =D Old CN ftmfw! This song is so chill, just makes me wanta lie down and watch old CN bumpers all day...
This tears me up. I remember watching this, I had to be like in middle or High school, I use catch this on the weekends. I miss classic Cartoon Network.
"A Song 🎵 In Geometric Philosophy" This song 🎵 was not only a classic for "Cartoon Network" at the time... But it was also good enough to have been a Classic on "School House 🏫 Rock 🎸 in the 1970's and 80's... Or even a standalone Classic of The Early 1970's. Wow!! What An Awesome Childhood, We Had.
For those who don't know or too young to know, this song was about a trope that many and I do mean many Hanna-Barbera cartoons did at the time which was repeating the background a lot where you swear they put in more windows and chairs in the same house...the big joke was these same characters from Hanna-Barbera finally becoming self aware that they were stuck in a loop and wondering how the hell they're gonna get out.
Back then I didn't understand the meaning of this bumper but years later I found out that the cartoonists uses the same frame to make it look like the characters were moving. Pretty cool.
"Walk around in Circles" can never get bits of this darn song out of head ever since i first heard it many years ago, and Im 31...that's a good thing tho!😊❤
This aired when I'd just gotten out of the army. My sister and I would get stoned and watch cartoon network all the time. Those days were the best. I'll probably never be that happy and carefree again.
Lyrics: When you were languishing in rooms I built to file you in, And when the wind set down in funnel form and pulled you in. I don't need to walk around in circles, Walk around in circles walk around in circles Walk around in... Don't need to walk around in circles, Walk around in circles walk around in circles, Walk around in... When the ghostly dust of violence traces everything, And when the gas runs out just wreck it, you insured the thing. I don't need to walk around in circles, Walk around in circles walk around in circles, Walk around in... Don't need to walk around in circles, Walk around in circles walk around in circles, Walk around in... Doom da doom da doom What I'm doing I'm doing But I can't sigh now that you made the move. It has gone and gone to dogs Lay down on the floor, For the right price I can get everything. Slip into the car, Go driving to the farthest star. I don't need to walk around in circles, Walk around in circles walk around in circles, Walk around in... Don't need to walk around in circles, Walk around in circles walk around in circles,
I cry everytime I hear these now just because it gives me such an amazing glimpse into my past I can literally go back to the first time I saw this in my head and remember every little detail glad I locked away so many amazing memories!

Mad true. Still a good song 🎵
I was born in 95 so I caught it too🥲. My childhood
This entire song was a bunch of cartoon characters having an existential crisis. Still a good song though.
It's a hell of a song with one hell of a meaning. Loved it as a kid but never knew what it ment.
You should listen to the band Soul Coughing they made the song. They have alot of weird lyrics like this very meaningful stuff

🙏🏾 My condolences to your family dude
Hopefully this memory is one that makes ya smile ❤
It didn't hit me until the chorus, it all came back to me. What a wave of nostalgia.
I watched this on boomerang with my friend when I was staying over at his house at like 3am. We were mesmerized and watched the whole thing. To this day, I still catch myself seeing it in my head. Core memory I guess.
This song unironically slaps better than almost anything from the past 4 years
Forgot about this song for a bit!
Glad I'm back!
Soul coughing is a good band. CN introduced me to them back in the late 90s or early 00s when this video aired.
I can't believe its been over 10 years.
greenwaveboi More like 20 years. Fuck. We got old.
Life flew past us so fast, we didnt even realise
@@UltimateThanos WTF.... I'm old enough to say I can remember 20 years ago
@@dingovory Wait another 20 years.
@@dingovory I always used to think 'man, these old people always saying "that was great... can't believe it was 20 years ago"... if it's that old they should just forget about it.' and now I'm in that same boat.
Man... I can't believe Boomerang started over 20 years ago.
And I REALLY can't believe it's been gone for 6!
Kids born when Boomerang ended are now in school...
STOP!
Escuché esta canción y Rolling siendo muy niño, como de 5 a 8 años mas o menos, ahora tengo 23 y esta banda debe ser una de mis favoritas de toda la vida, que buena música hacían la ptm
My childhood just hit me in the face, kids today don't know what the real Cartoon Network is,
R.I.P Cartoon Network 1998 - 2011 😢😢😢😢😭
More like 1991-2008. Adult swim has been the only good thing about the channel along with toonami revival since then. We really had it good with late 80s,90s, and early 00s cartoons.
Nah bro they keep putting up good stuff
old media doesn't go away when it stops airing genius
@@RandomTalk28 eeehhh......
1998? Are you that stupid? and it was long dead by 2011.
Hello, me at 6:30am getting ready for school in 2001.
I saw this a bunch on Boomerang as a kid and thought it was a good song
Here I am at 30 and I’m just now realizing it’s poking fun at walk cycles of the old Hanna Barbera cartoons
Boomerang had the best breaks in between shows ppl born in the 90s and 2000s know it
This brings back memories of my younger years as a pre-teen. I saw this music video multiple times on CN.
I keep finding myself coming back to this music video. Goodness, I loved the good times of being young and carefree.
Such nostalgia, i remember watching this as a kid in my room and swaying to this lol , Good times .
thank you nostalgia critic
2:05 that gasp for air
Well placed breathing that just made it sound cooler.
I loved hearing it as a kid oddly enough
I noticed that as a kid always use to laugh about it
When i first heard that as a kid I knew exactly what it was. lol
This video and "Rolling" on the old cartoon network is what turned me on to Soul Coughing.
Those were fun times, staying up all night watching CN and getting messed up!
They're still one of my favourite bands. Much gratitude to the people that made these 'Groovies.' They also turned me onto Pain (now known as Salvo), who are also one of my favourite bands. ^^
Wow 17 years ago this tune still rings in my head every now and then
I've watched so many of these cartoons that I can hear the dialogue in their voices when I read it.
I hear ya, man! It's like when I'm reading Avatar: TLAB comics; there's a tape recorder in my head that records the voices so clearly!
I miss these
THIS UPLOAD IS A GODSEND! I remember seeing this on Boomerang back in late 2007 (I can't remember which reruns it was sandwiched under) but I had not seen it since. I am so happy to have stumbled upon it here so many years later at the age of 26.
Will never forget this cool simple yet powerful song. Cheers from South El Monte California August 2024
This was my favorite song from Cartoon Network Grooves. Plus it made aware of the repeating background in cartoons. I still love this.
Nostalgia!! A hell of a drug! Our childhoods were unmatched
Yo this song has been stuck in my head since I was young/whenever this aired. But this is one of the only songs I heard one time and never forgot the lyrics. Love this
Mike Doughty from soul coughing is a lyrical genius! 🔥❤️ Thanks for writing this amazing song
I remember dancing to this when I was little
Ah, good ol' 2000 Cartoon Network. Good times.
20yrs later.
Toonami Aftermath :D oh how you make the memories come rushing back.
YES
UniQueLyEviL the feels
Ah, yes, I remember the days before anime basically destroyed the American animation industry... how I long for Robot Jones.
Peter Smith
Don'tchu be hatin' on my animu!
UniQueLyEviL anime is life
ahh back when Cartoon Network could always get awesome bands to play their awesome songs, good times! =D
Old CN ftmfw!
This song is so chill, just makes me wanta lie down and watch old CN bumpers all day...
This tears me up. I remember watching this, I had to be like in middle or High school, I use catch this on the weekends. I miss classic Cartoon Network.
Same here my friend, I remember seeing this when I was middle school and I so BADLY miss this era of Cartoon Network. :(
Thanks for reminding of this gem, Nostalgia Critic. I forgot all about this one, and how much I enjoyed it.
I remember this on the CN website, this and one other video they had.
The nostalgia I'm feeling seeing this video is super intense.
im right there with you dude its a great and very sad feeling all at the same time i do miss them days long live the classics!!!!!
"A Song 🎵 In Geometric Philosophy"
This song 🎵 was not only a classic for "Cartoon Network" at the time...
But it was also good enough to have been a Classic on "School House 🏫 Rock 🎸 in the 1970's and 80's...
Or even a standalone Classic of The Early 1970's.
Wow!! What An Awesome Childhood, We Had.
For those who don't know or too young to know, this song was about a trope that many and I do mean many Hanna-Barbera cartoons did at the time which was repeating the background a lot where you swear they put in more windows and chairs in the same house...the big joke was these same characters from Hanna-Barbera finally becoming self aware that they were stuck in a loop and wondering how the hell they're gonna get out.
So was this a special episode/show of some sorts? Would love to watch it
@@rvh1999 No, this was a bumper for Cartoon Network back in the heydays of the channel....Back when it cared about its product
Back then I didn't understand the meaning of this bumper but years later I found out that the cartoonists uses the same frame to make it look like the characters were moving. Pretty cool.
A moment of silence for all the people out there that keep walking around in circles to find this song.
"Walk around in Circles" can never get bits of this darn song out of head ever since i first heard it many years ago, and Im 31...that's a good thing tho!😊❤
Cartoon Network really used to go hard on their bumpers back in the day. I miss them to no end.
One of my favorite things about music is how through time it stays with you
CN Groovies pop up in my head at random times 😁
This aired when I'd just gotten out of the army. My sister and I would get stoned and watch cartoon network all the time. Those days were the best. I'll probably never be that happy and carefree again.
I’ve had this song stuck in my head for the past 18 years.
Aww them were the good old days!🐱
I'm so glad other people came back to see this gem. Nostalgia is a powerful thing
Lyrics: When you were languishing in rooms
I built to file you in,
And when the wind set down in funnel form and pulled you in.
I don't need to walk around in circles,
Walk around in circles
walk around in circles
Walk around in...
Don't need to walk around in circles,
Walk around in circles
walk around in circles,
Walk around in...
When the ghostly dust of violence traces everything,
And when the gas runs out just wreck it, you insured the thing.
I don't need to walk around in circles,
Walk around in circles
walk around in circles,
Walk around in...
Don't need to walk around in circles,
Walk around in circles
walk around in circles,
Walk around in...
Doom da doom da doom
What I'm doing I'm doing
But I can't sigh now that you made the move.
It has gone and gone to dogs
Lay down on the floor,
For the right price I can get everything.
Slip into the car,
Go driving to the farthest star.
I don't need to walk around in circles,
Walk around in circles
walk around in circles,
Walk around in...
Don't need to walk around in circles,
Walk around in circles
walk around in circles,
Yes! Been scrolling through the comments looking for somebody to upload the lyrics! Nice pic of whatever pokemon that is lol. Skitty?
I thought this was some fever dream for the longest time strictly because I could only remember the chorus.
I'm glad its real
This song brought back so many memories for me as a kid watching Cartoon Network it was the best ❤
I cry everytime I hear these now just because it gives me such an amazing glimpse into my past I can literally go back to the first time I saw this in my head and remember every little detail glad I locked away so many amazing memories!
loved this video when I was a kid during Toonheads, and now I'm about to turn 32 next week. I cant believe how much time has passed.
@PowerPackers90 I'm 32 years old now & my birthday passed last month. It's July 20th. 💚👌
