Throwback Video of the Week: Incubus- Wish You Were Here

Can you believe this song is 18 years old? It can buy cigarettes, get a tattoo, and join the navy. Released late summer of 2001, it’s one of Incubus’ best known songs. We know why… these lyrics are straight fire:

I dig my toes into the sand
The Ocean looks like a thousand diamonds
Strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind
Pretend that I am weightless
And in this moment I am happy happy)
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I lay my head onto the sand
The sky resembles a backlit canopy
With holes punched in it
I’m counting UFOs
I signal them with my lighter
And in this moment I am happy happy)
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
Wish you were here
The worlds a roller coaster
And I am not strapped in
Maybe I should hold with care
But my hands are busy in the air saying)
I wish you were here
I wish you were.
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
Wish you were here.
