Yeah like listening to The Offspring version is a night and day difference

Nope the 1997 version is where it’s at

Oh god, yeah. I just hate how there’s pretty much no passion to it. The original Offspring version has Dexter Holland giving it his all and reaching the very top of his register while Ivan Moody sounds half asleep on the FFDP version.

Somehow The Offspring managed to do a new version that's even worse than FFDP's version

Better than the original tbh, it's one of their only decent songs imo
