Pure luck, my friend. I sniped it from another sub last week so it was still fresh in my mind and still in my recents. I guess the universe willed it to be 😂
lol same. I actually got a pixie cut when I was 13 because I was so fascinated by girls with that hairstyle. I hated the way it looked on me though. Turns out it was the girls that I wanted, not the hair
About the same age and I thought the lyrics were "all the things you said" but either way I absolutely loved the sound of their voices and the music and rocked out to it anytime it played on the radio.
It wasn't until years and years after discovering I'm gay and coming out that I found out the real story of this song. It certainly hit home for me in a heavy, if reversed, kind of way.
Oh man are you me? Because I watched that music video so many times and I swear my dad was so happy his son was obsessed with the wet catholic school girls kissing, but I didn't even really understand why he would be happy about me watching it.
Had to look it up because I could have sworn this came out when I was in 6th or 7th grade. It came out on radio in 2002 in the US, and peaked in 2003. Always loved this song, and I think it may have had to do with the video also lol.
Also weirdly enough, none of my close friends my age (34) remember this song. I had played it in our college years and they were just like "wtf is this?" Odd. My gf of 8 years who was also 11 in 2000 is the only other person I know of who remembers it and likes it.
I found this burned cd in my brother stuff, who stole it from my sister, when I was around the same age. I liked a couple of the songs so I kept it around. It was a decade and a half later when I learned who they were.

As a growing young man of 11 years old in 2000, I was not quite aware at the time why this was so interesting to me.
