On August 6, 2002, the band released their first full-length album entitled Hurry Up and Wait. The first single "I Feel Fine" became a quick success and was also featured in the 2002 movie Orange County. Additionally, the song "Pick Up the Pieces" was featured on the soundtrack for the video game ATV Offroad Fury 2, and in the movie Extreme Ops.
After touring heavily for two years, the band released their second album Stop the World on October 22, 2004. Unfortunately, this would mark the decline of the band. After touring for five years to support their two albums the band began to feel quite "burned out."
In August 2005, the band agreed to break up. Due to the quiet and sudden breakup of the band, most fans were unaware of the split. However the breakup was confirmed both on their official website and MySpace.
Following the break-up, Johnson formed the rock band New Disaster with Keel on drums. New Disaster released their first album mixed by Andy Johns and entitled Last Night Rites in February 2008 and then quickly released their follow up album Automanic in late 2009. Baker is currently working on a project entitled "Vegas Bomb", previously named "Twenty Questions" previously named "Clint's Junior Orchestra". Stroud formed Say Hello to the Angels, and is in the process of recording their debut album.
Baker also had a cameo appearance in the FOX hit TV show House. In addition, Paul Ebersold, the producer for two of the Riddlin' Kids' albums, helped to record the demos tracks for Baker's new project. Some of these songs may be part of the soundtrack for the new movie Weekend Junkies.
I Feel Fine
Riddlin' Kids Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh, no look I've done it again.
Man I should think about it before I say anything.
One, two, three, four looks like I'm alone again and
I feel fine.
Doesn't really matter now cause I'm all right.
She knocked me on my ass again, but I don't mind.
Right now I don't know what to say, because you're mean and I never liked you anyway.
Don't ever call cause I don't want to be friends.
Excuse me now because the chorus is comin' up again.
One, two, three, four looks like I'm alone again and
I feel fine.
Doesn't really matter now cause I'm all right.
She knocked me on my ass again, but I don't mind.
Looks like I'm alone again and I feel fine.
They come and go and I don't feel a thing.
It's not cause I'm a jerk and I don't care.
And I don't know what's the matter with me.
I only know the right girl still out there.
I feel fine.
Doesn't really matter now cause I'm all right.
She knocked me on my ass again, but I don't mind.
Looks like I'm alone again and I feel fine.
I feel fine.
Doesn't really matter now cause I'm all right.
She knocked me on my ass again, but I don't mind.
Looks like I'm alone again and I feel fine.
In Riddlin' Kids's song "I Feel Fine", the lyrics tell the story of a person who is going through a tough time with a romantic interest. At the beginning of the song, the person is feeling conflicted about being alone or being with their partner, but then realizes that it doesn't matter because they feel okay either way. The person acknowledges that they tend to speak before thinking, and end up alone because of it. However, they are okay with being alone as they feel fine.
As the song continues, the person becomes more assertive and decides that they do not want to continue the relationship with their partner anymore. They acknowledge that they never really liked this person and do not want to be friends with them. Despite the setbacks in their love life, the person still feels fine and doesn't mind being alone. They believe the right person is still out there for them.
The song offers a glimpse into the difficulties of navigating romantic relationships and the importance of knowing when to let go. The repeated phrase "I feel fine" shows the resilience of the individual in the face of heartbreak and rejection.

I Feel Fine/Riddlin' Kids
Lyrics＆和訳
Right now, I really don't care,
今や気にしてないぜ
If im alone or if i got you sittin' there..
孤独に1人でいようが、君とそこで隣り合わせているかなんて…
Oh no, look I've done it again!
ヤバっ、またやっちまったわw
Man, I should think about it before i say anything...
あーあ、何か言う前にはちゃんと考えるべきだぜほんと…
(Chorus)
1-2-3-4 looks like I'm alone again,
ほら見ろ、また一人ぼっちだぜ
And i feel fine.
まぁもういいんだけどな
Doesn't really matter now,
マジでもうどうでもいい
Cuz I'm alright.
もう気にしてねぇから
Knocked me on my ass again, but i dont mind.
初凸猛進で尻もちついちまったけど、もういいんだ
Looks like I'm alone again,
一人ぼっちに逆戻りだぜ
And i feel fine.
でももういいんだ
Right now, I don't know what to say,
今や何を言うべきかも分かんねぇよ
Because you're mean and I never liked you anyway!
だってお前は酷い奴で二度と好きにはなれないって思えたからな
Don't ever call cuz I dont want to be friends,
Excuse me now cuz the chorus is coming up again.
友達にもなりたくねぇから二度と電話してくんじゃねぇぞ。
それにほら、またサビが来るからここらで失礼するぜ
(Chorus)
1-2-3-4 looks like I'm alone again,
また一人ぼっちだよ
And i feel fine.
もういいんだけどね
Doesn't really matter now,
マジでもうどうだっていい
Cuz I'm alright.
大丈夫だから
Knocked me on my ass again, but i dont mind.
また初凸猛進で尻もちついちまったけどもう気にしてねぇよ
Looks like I'm alone again,
俺はまた一人ぼっちみたいだけど、
And i feel fine.
もういいんだ
They come and go, I dont feel a thing.
アイツらは寄り添っては逃げてくんだ、もはや何にも感じなくなってきた
Its not cuz I'm a jerk and I dont care,
俺が最低で何にも気にしてねぇ奴ではないのに
I don't know, what's the matter with me?
分かんねぇ、俺のどこがいけないんだ？
I only know the right girl is still out there.
分かってることはどストレートなアイツがまだスグそこに居るってことだけだ
And I feel fine,
だけどもういいんだ
Doesn't really matter now, cuz I'm alright.
大丈夫だからマジでもう関係ない
Knocked me on my ass again, but I don't mind.
また当たって砕けたけど気にしてねぇよ
Looks like I'm alone again and i feel fine.
そしてまた強がる孤独な俺の登場さ
Yeah, I feel fine,
それでも大丈夫なんだ
Doesn't really matter now, cuz I'm alright.
大丈夫だから、ほんっとにどうだっていい
Knocked me on my ass again, but I don't mind.
何度も当たっては砕けたけど気にしてねぇ
Looks like I'm alone again and i feel fine
また孤独に戻ったが、全然大丈夫さ

This is actually the first 4D pop-punk video. You can smell the 2002 in it.

Oh to be young again. These were a perfect example of a band that should have been bigger than they were
@KevinSparksatx
They didn't listen to their record label, so they got torn apart by All American Rejects on their last tour, then got dropped. For better or worse, that's what happened

I read somewhere that they got really exhausted from the heavy touring schedule. But yeah, these guys could be the next big thing. Great voice, awesome vocal melodies, especially on the Stop The World album, and solid playing, especially on the drums.

@@indrapratama7668 Thanks so much !! I’m the drummer by the way.
@antonchigurh3794
@@KevinSparksatx Actually , the Rejects had nothing to do with it. We toured for another 2 years after being with them. We didn’t get dropped , we split up. Just didn’t see eye to eye anymore and didn’t want to phone it in just to continue doing it. Probably why we are all still best friends. If we’d kept going , that most likely wouldn’t be the case.
