View Full Version : Before you had heard of the offspring
Where there any songs that you had heard before you knew it was the offspring?
like, when you were listening to them for the 'first' time, you're like "hey, i recognize this"

Last year, I found out that a band I had listened to for a long time, was named The Offspring.
Anything made before Splinter I wouldn't have known, until Crazy Taxi 3 came out, and I looked in the back of the booklet, and saw the names "Offspring" and "Bad Religion".
After that, I started downloading songs by both bands.

First time I heard about the offspring was when my friend played me self esteem, bad habit, gotta get away and a few more for me back in 95 or something, I was really young back then. But we made a mix tape with some songs on it that I listened to for years. Then when Pretty Fly came on tv I knew right away that it was the offspring and thats when I bought like all albums they had released and from that point they were my favorite band and still is. They came for a concert 98 but I was to young, online like 10 years old so I wasnt allowed to go. But I saw em 2001 and 2004 so im alright by now ;)

Self Esteem and All I Want.
All I Want was in a comercial for the Americana CD. Self Esteem was on TV a few years ago (back then) and I started to sing the la-la part when I was young.
And at first I hated Pretty Fly (For A White Guy) because everyone else loved it. But when the song was "out" (wasn't played on MTV as much) I started to like it.

I had heard Come Out and Play, Self Esteem, Pretty Fly for a White Guy, and I don't know what else before i knew they were by the offspring. I liked Hit That, so I downloaded it, and realized all those songs were by the Offspring also. I had also heard Weird Al's parody Pretty Fly for a Rabbi.

Self Esteem came out in '94 and was a huge success, I'm sure I heard it when I was young, then, a few years later I discovered Americana and listened all the previous cds ... and I was like crazy :D

My sister bought smash in 1994, and that was the first I heard them, and I've known who they were since.

Well I started being able to reconize the Offspring songs after C01 came out. So when I heard Pretty Fly and Come Out and Play I realized it was The Offspring, I had heard the songs before but never knew who sang it.
