I hope you're still loving them at 23💗 And I know how you feel: When I was 16, one of my best friends was a huge music buff and a brilliant guitarist--he was more than 10 years older than me and taught me almost everything I know about music. But *I* had the honor of introducing him to the classic L.A. punk band X😊 He'd never heard them, and he loved them to death💖 Even got me their autographs when he went to see them live🥰
""Hush" was the first word you were taught / and I watched you wear the clothes that they claimed that they bought/it brought ya down..."I love this song.
I'm 17. In some weird way thanks to bands like and especially The Replacements, I've become comfortable with myself. Westerberg's lyrics are so relatable to those who don't fit in or are shy or whatever.
I love this band. I've seen them live many times, and love everything from beginning to now. The wonderful early videos with just speakers thumping and the occasional 'human' touch like a cigarette flick or whatever to the full on performance video here. There are lyrics here that are so wise, and yet so believable. I'm an eternal Florida fan.
Esta banda me llamó la atención desdé niño por un disco de vinil andaba én los tianguis con mi vinilo buscando un cd pirata de la banda para escucharlos y nunca lo encontré en 🇲🇽 ahora a mis 16 años los encontré y me fascinó la banda tengo 23 y no los e dejado de escuchar
It gets a bit tiring to always hear the Replacements referred to as underrated, but I will say that this song is underrated. I always thought it was just great, and never understood why people wrote off All Shook Down and almost all of the Replacements' post-Tim output. There's tremendous stuff there.
@darrenholmes4213 I wanna like it but I find because so many of the songs are midtempo and downbeat they kinda blur together. There are some really excellent tracks on _Shook_ though. I particularly love this one, the creepy title track and the energetic and desperate "Bent Out of Shape".
Early 90s might be one of the best times for music and when I found this band. Thank you TouTube for having these "120 Minutes" videos available to watch and bookmark. Such a solid band with great songs.
I could never begin to explain what these guys songs mean to me. They are the soundtrack to my life and each tune feels like it was somehow written just for me.
Huge fan, and the only person on the whole internet to not see them live. Even though they only had 35 people at each show, millions have been there, and it was epic.
Thank you Robert. You understand how it was! Such a great band in their heyday! Especially when Bob was still with us. One of the most underrated guitarists ever. Some day he'll be "discovered."
Absolutely the greatest band of the 80's. They influenced so many bands but destroyed their chances of stardom on purpose. Self-destructive behavior!! I'm 55 and saw them all through the 80's and to this day still wonder, 'what if???" Westerberg is an amazing songwriter. They have never received their due
I lost my love and best friend Ashley back in 2012. Just drove around with this on repeat, chainsmoking with tears streaming down my face. Love you Ashy, this is your anthem
Paul Westerburg is the man ... Is the man is the man ... Is the man is the man ... Is the man is the man ... Is the man is the man ... Is the man is the man ... One day soon you all will know it ... is takes 20 years for the average mortal to awaken to greatness... what more can i say ...
I only became a Replacements fan within the last year or 2. I wish I listened to them 17 years ago when I was 13 and introduced to punk/alternative. me being the punk rocker I am loves their early stuff and love the fact that they evolved into that alternative music.its a shame that this bands broken past haunts them and prevents them to be active currently but I have become a huge fan of tommy Stinson and love his music.
Actually the first Mats song I ever heard (completely unwittingly) I remember hearing this on college station as a 13 year old in the mid 90s when this was still relatively contemporary, despite them breaking up a few years before, (right in time of course to miss the whole alt rock/grunge breakthrough which could have made them huge stars had it happened 5 years earlier.) Made enough of an impression that I recognized it years later when I got around to All Shook Down after Let It Be, Tim and PTMM. Even thought this is clearly them breaking up (and really a Westerberg solo song) still a classic. How I love this band
It's amazing to me how overlooked this band is. I don't think anyone under 30 even knows who they are. There is no one around today that even comes close to the songwriting ability of Paul.This music is as close to perfect as it gets.
A hush was the first word you were taught And I watched you wear the clothes they claimed that they bought They brought you down To watch the merry go around In fall, you knew how much cost The trouble doll, around your neck when you lost You wouldn't make a sound But I could hear your little heart pound And I watched your feet slip off the ground Merry go round, in dreams Writes 'em down, it seems When she sleeps, she's free Merry go round, in dreams You wake to another day and find The winds blowin' outta key with your sky Only you can see And the rain dancin' in the night Everybody stands around in daylight Merry go round, in dreams Writes 'em down, it seems When she sleeps, she's free Merry go round, in dreams And everybody thinks she's sick Shes got two worlds she can pick And she's sad ... Hush is the only word you know And I stopped listening long ago They ignored me with a smile You as a child But the trouble doll hears your heart pound And your feet say good-bye to the ground Merry go round, in dreams Writes 'em down, it seems When she sleeps, she's free Merry go round, in dreams Merry go round, in dreams Merry go round, in me Merry go round Merry go round Merry go round
I understand old school (older) fans being mad at this stage in the game , post bob Stinson. But it’s a great song, and I’m glad I heard this record first. It was beautiful to find “stink” and hootenanny after this, you can see the songwriting progression. I much prefer late ‘mats to most classic rock, or even most late 90s modern rock. Paul is a great songwriter, even if this isn’t as great as let it be, I still love it.
I was introduced to this band by Rock Band with their song "Alex Chilton" and then I found The Replacements greatest hits CD in my mom's collection. it's a shame that she once had a great taste in music and now listens to (not even kidding) top 40 shit..
+TylerPierson Hmmm... Mats fans cling to the old songs. Listen to the whole catalog and then get back to them. May I recommend two old songs "I'm in Trouble" or "Within Your Reach"?
Jon Michael Jacobs I've listened to every album. Still love this song. Honestly I think this whole album is kinda underrated, even if it was the Paul Westerberg show at this point
No way.. I'm 28 and have been a huge Replacements fan for years. I got into them in the late 90s because of one of my favorite bands, the Goo Goo Dolls. My favorite Goo albums were all from their early years, when they were bashed for being cheap Replacements knockoffs. Frankly, both bands were hugely unappreciated during those years and had many great songs that got little attention from anyone.
totally feel that way! I was born 150 or so years too late! I would have fucking thrived in a long-gone era; or maybe that is just what I tell myself so I can grab a few hours of sleep each night... Cheers!
I love this song. Funniest part of the video is for all of the 3 seconds the camera is on Chris, the look on his face is just screaming "Get me the fuck out of this band now!"
The worst part is that it isn't even Chris playing on this song! For this video he had to pantomime playing along to the work of another drummer on the recording! (Still love the song, though!)
Found out he didn't play on "They're Blind" because it's 6/8 timing. Also, there's a reason he doesn't play on songs like "Within Your Reach", "Answering Machine" - his drumming style is very unique yet not condusive to other styles. As Westerberg's songwriting was becoming prolific, Mars' playing didn't evolve although his rhythm and timing were impeccable in PTMM and DTAS. Westerberg admitted he couldn't bring a lot of songs to the Mats either because Bob would hate them or Chris couldn't play them the way Westerberg wanted.
I love Paul but he created drama where there didn't need to be any. Chris Mars could play any of these songs. His drumming style was perfect for the band. Paul, understandably, would get bored with playing with the same players. The drum machine on "Within Your Reach" adds a quality. Doesn't mean Mars has to be blamed for anything. And that 6/8 timing bull. Give me a break. Chris was a scapegoat for Paul and later Tommy because they were balls deep alcoholics and Chris was keeping a little cleaner. Pete Townshend does the same thing. Talks shit about Keith Moon. The ego of a songwriter. Justified but painful to witness let alone be victimized by. p.s. Paul always said "you guys try writing songs" and subsequently Chris, Slim and Tommy all put out solo records that were better, arguably, than Paul's. Great great band. Love em to death.
To nobody's surprise, the Mats decision-making process certainly wasn't democratic. The thread was unraveling soon after they signed with SIRE and they were seeking that big break they never got, nor did they really make an effort to obtain. The pressure was put onto Paul by the music exec's and management who put a lot of energy and wanting them to succeed, i.e. sell more records, play bigger venues, etc. However, to the Mats' chagrin, their longview perception of success was really about how influential they've become after their tenure. I agree that the other Mats' members had their unique abilities to write songs; however, they deferred to Paul because they knew he would lead the band to success, albeit down the road of despair.
I’m 70 years old now and it’s 2022 and I am loving the Replacements more and more
Im a 16 year old girl and i love the replacements, i even introduced them to my 56 year old dad!
Bunny Martin he should already be a huge fan!
I hope you're still loving them at 23💗
And I know how you feel: When I was 16, one of my best friends was a huge music buff and a brilliant guitarist--he was more than 10 years older than me and taught me almost everything I know about music.
But *I* had the honor of introducing him to the classic L.A. punk band X😊
He'd never heard them, and he loved them to death💖
Even got me their autographs when he went to see them live🥰
you should listen to Flesh for Lulu Postcards from Paradise and I go Crazy.
@@breatheliveandthrive7404 Flashback!😲
@@negascoot23
yeah and don't forget The Pursuit of Happiness's She's So Young in your list.
I'd never heard of the Replacements, but I went looking for songs about fairground rides. This is great!
""Hush" was the first word you were taught / and I watched you wear the clothes that they claimed that they bought/it brought ya down..."I love this song.

How ya doin' at 27? I only discovered The Replacements a couple years ago. Wish I'd found them as a teen!
actually you're 28

Most underrated band ever. Love Pablo and always will

The first ten seconds looks so very cool! Love this song.

There are few as great as Paul....one of the best songwriters ever.
Early 90s might be one of the best times for music and when I found this band. Thank you TouTube for having these "120 Minutes" videos available to watch and bookmark. Such a solid band with great songs.
This album was full Westerberg, smooth and clean
LOVE LOVE LOVE The Replacements! This is such a great song! How can it only have 461 likes???
I could never begin to explain what these guys songs mean to me. They are the soundtrack to my life and each tune feels like it was somehow written just for me.

This is real pop. The Replacements are legends.
Ouch. They are legends and this is the warm glass of milk Replacements.
Tommy especially loved this album.
*rock. This ain't pop.
@@bk8080 Very strange as it's one of their worst because of a lot of weak songs on it though the strong songs like "Nobody" are far and few between.
This is hard rock actually
I love this. Just can't get enough.
if you are going for the demented Katy Perry look, congratulations, you nailed it!!!
Cheers!
Its just a picture of a lady its not me.
Thank you Robert. You understand how it was! Such a great band in their heyday! Especially when Bob was still with us. One of the most underrated guitarists ever. Some day he'll be "discovered."
Growing up in the Twin Cities and watching these guys was a trip for sure - RIP Bob.
Absolutely the greatest band of the 80's. They influenced so many bands but destroyed their chances of stardom on purpose. Self-destructive behavior!!
I'm 55 and saw them all through the 80's and to this day still wonder, 'what if???"
Westerberg is an amazing songwriter.
They have never received their due
I recently discovered this band and wow.... they are currently my favorite
The older I get, the more I appreciate this band.
Love this band! This is song one of my favorites! Used to listen to them all the time in the 90's.
great band.
All shook down My favorite replacements album wonderful wonderful
This merry Go Round song I have heard it get some play on XM Radio. Great tune.
Such memories back in the day..Love them!
I saw these guys at Rutgers College circa 1989. Loved them, still do.
I will always and forever love The Replacements. Always and forever.
Bought this when it first came out and played it nonstop....great album and the mats as a whole so underrated.
The greatest band that never was. I adore The Replacements and always will. Paul Westerberg is my forever crush.
All Hail the Mighty Mats! Truly, "America's Best Band". Classic American music.
I lost my love and best friend Ashley back in 2012. Just drove around with this on repeat, chainsmoking with tears streaming down my face. Love you Ashy, this is your anthem
This band isn't overlooked at all. Anybody who knows their music, knows and loves this band.
Paul Westerburg is the man ... Is the man is the man ... Is the man is the man ... Is the man is the man ... Is the man is the man ... Is the man is the man ... One day soon you all will know it ... is takes 20 years for the average mortal to awaken to greatness... what more can i say ...
OK's Corral, Madison, Wi. One of my favorite places back in the eighties to see the Mats.
I saw them there in fall 1985! They sucked that night, but I still love em
Forever my favorite band. Forever.
So underrated and rarely giving’ props.
Just a really good band with a lot of good material
I use "Trouble Doll" all the time. LOVE.
Love them. Lucky to have seen them live. Pablo forever.
I only became a Replacements fan within the last year or 2.

18 years old this is my fav band
Hope it’s at least still one of your favs
the melody to this song popped into my head, so I had to listen to it again. today was a good day.
this song always makes my eyes water ❤

come one guys... one more time!!!!!! please... America needs you!
W-E-S-T-E-R-B-E-R-G!!!
Fuck, yeah!!!
@MrBuc128 I'm still in high school and I listen to their music.
It's amazing to me how overlooked this band is. I don't think anyone under 30 even knows who they are. There is no one around today that even comes close to the songwriting ability of Paul.This music is as close to perfect as it gets.
Truth ❤
This was the first song I ever heard by the 'Mats. I was never the same, after. Still makes me happy all over when I hear it.
I love this band!
Rock and roll. Nobody is even trying much. Open window.
Love these guys 😀👏👏👏
Every year that passes the Mats just get better and better
I would love to listen Paul telling us about how he crafts those witty songs. His creative process.
Go Slim!! What a legend. Check out his solo stuff too
Just perfect x
First band I ever saw live. The best ever.
i love this song
Hey! I'm a brazilian teenager and I love these guys!
Bom demais!!!
Love the mats
well hello 1991, oh how i've missed you ;)
one of the songs that catches the attention the first time it is heard
Coolest band ever, bar none.
A hush was the first word you were taught
And I watched you wear the clothes they claimed that they bought
They brought you down
To watch the merry go around
In fall, you knew how much cost
The trouble doll, around your neck when you lost
You wouldn't make a sound
But I could hear your little heart pound
And I watched your feet slip off the ground
Merry go round, in dreams
Writes 'em down, it seems
When she sleeps, she's free
Merry go round, in dreams
You wake to another day and find
The winds blowin' outta key with your sky
Only you can see
And the rain dancin' in the night
Everybody stands around in daylight
Merry go round, in dreams
Writes 'em down, it seems
When she sleeps, she's free
Merry go round, in dreams
And everybody thinks she's sick
Shes got two worlds she can pick
And she's sad
...
Hush is the only word you know
And I stopped listening long ago
They ignored me with a smile
You as a child
But the trouble doll hears your heart pound
And your feet say good-bye to the ground
Merry go round, in dreams
Writes 'em down, it seems
When she sleeps, she's free
Merry go round, in dreams
Merry go round, in dreams
Merry go round, in me
Merry go round
Merry go round
Merry go round
The last appearance of Chris Mars with the 'Mats. :(
this is amazing
Had ZERO idea they made this!!!
They're automatically legends!!!
Great song
The other "Minneapolis" sound!💗
Great!!!
under 30? i'm 1 years old and the mats are one of my favorite bands!
buddy, i was born yesterday and can't get enough of dis shit!

totally
@MrBuc128
Fear not, I'm 21 and I know who they are and concur they are quite possibly the greatest.
The band that never was. The Replacements are my favorite band ever.
Love this song, reminds me of Blondie's "Dreaming". Saw the Mats in 1986 with Bob, they were pretty trashed but so was everyone in the audience.
My heartbeat’s rounding like clock. A heart that beats like clockwork… .
I was introduced to this band by Rock Band with their song "Alex Chilton" and then I found The Replacements greatest hits CD in my mom's collection. it's a shame that she once had a great taste in music and now listens to (not even kidding) top 40 shit..
mats were so amazing
1:10 aww! there he is! my favorite guy in the world...
I don't think I would have survived my early years without the replacements
I be 13 and I love The 'Mats ^^
The more you know.
I love this song I'm really surprised to scroll down and see people shitting on it, anyone care to explain to me, i think I'm missing something
Google comments are just a cesspool.
At the time it was seen as a lightweight Mats. Improves with age..
+TylerPierson Hmmm... Mats fans cling to the old songs. Listen to the whole catalog and then get back to them. May I recommend two old songs "I'm in Trouble" or "Within Your Reach"?

I've listened to every album. Still love this song. Honestly I think this whole album is kinda underrated, even if it was the Paul Westerberg show at this point
+nicholas hilton Anyone who prefers this to the Twin/Tone era is deaf or lying.
Way before their time. If only...😍😬

fr im 13 but same
same!
totally feel that way!
I was born 150 or so years too late!
I would have fucking thrived in a long-gone era; or maybe that is just what I tell myself so I can grab a few hours of sleep each night...
Cheers!

I saw the band play Answering Machine live in 85, and they killed...Mars could play it.

This is far from their best and its still so good.
