You're about as likely to win three-card monte as see a
major record label let a new band self-produce its debut.
Then along comes Wheatus. "We wanted to make a record by
ourselves," says Brendan B. Brown, the vocalist, the
guitarist, the songwriter. And that's just what they did.
So what makes Wheatus so damn exception-to-the-rule
special?
Tunes, primarily. "Wheatus is about crafting pop-rock songs
with punk/street credibility," says Rich Leigey, the
bassist. "Period." Balls-out, straight-on, pissed-off and
charged up. Piercingly direct smarts spewed with skewed
humor. A raw More...

After watching generation kill where they sang this song while in Iraq, inside the Humvee, with blistering heat, I started to do the same thing every time when I'm off to work.
Now I know why they were singing this song.

"this reminds me of middle school | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/6/09
i was 10 almost turning 11 when this song came out, i was leaving toluca lake elementary school & entering in the life of a 6th grader at walter reed middle school[go wolves!] i loved this girl named noelle, she didn't know who i was though, i was like jason biggs, i wasn't popular which made everything worse on top of being a 6th grader surrounded by 7th & 8th graders
middle school for that year seemed like high school to me
i remember the halloween dance was 2 days away & i wanted to ask noelle if she would go with me
too shy me, i asked a supposed to be good friend if he'd ask her for me
and when the day of the dance came, she was out in front of the school with her friends[all beautiful girls] & my little crew of friends was about 10 feet away from her & her friends, so i casually walked up, & her friends were circled around her, & so my friends circled around me, & they gave me the confidence to go ask noelle out, & when i exited my circle of friends her friends seemed to be staring at me as i was walking over to them, as soon as i got to her circle of friends an 8th grader, one of my suppose to be good friends, stepped infront of me, wrapped his arm around noelle, whispered something in her ear, & they both laughed while looking at me, and walked off with her crowd of friends & mine tailing behind, & so ironic this is, teenage dirtbag was playing on the intercom, & i swallowed hard, & i went to the halloween dance on campus, the whole walk to the dance, which was in the big gym, teenage dirtbag played loudly & from that day on i loved that song, hated it, & was saddened by it
excellent song
i hate middle school
i hate high school
& i hate college

------ About the song Teenage Dirtbag performed by Wheatus
I'm actually learning this song on the guitar at school (hence, I looked up the lyrics). I find this kinda funny, cos way back when it first came out, I think I would have been about 6... I loved this song to bits and it actually inspired me to buy my first guitar at age 7ish. I can remember getting it home and trying to play this song, (I was hopeless having never had a lesson). I totally forgot about this until I was told what song we were learning! Me & my friend Jazzy sing it really loud!
So this song is pretty crucial to me, cos, I mean, I might be playing piano like Delta if this song had never come out!

my girlfriend's name was noelle. when i was with the army overseas in afgahnistan i was informed of her death. she was hit by a car on the way to an iron maiden concert. i cant help but cry whenever i hear this song. we were "high school sweethearts" and though she didnt even know of my existence until grade 11 pre-prom i still loved her and continue to love her to this day, almost 8 years later. please love your family, wife neighbours and freinds while you have them.

------ About the song Teenage Dirtbag performed by Wheatus
This song really makes me depressed because my girlfriend broke up with me because I'm pretty much a dick. Her name is Noelle also. So the lyrics speak to me and it makes me sad because in the end of the song they go to an Iron Maiden concert, which we won't be doing :( God it makes me miss her. This song has a nice tune too and I think its beautiful. Its a good song that I'll remember from 08

------ About the song Teenage Dirtbag performed by Wheatus
this is a really cool song and i like it much, but not cuz it brings up memories to me or something so. i love the tune n' and that's it.
actually, the only thing i don't understand is why the boy defines himself like a teenage dirtybag.
i mean, he doesn't have a great self-confident. and at first, there's a kind of pessimism in all that! anyway, i think this one of the most beautiful song i've ever heard. really! i have to admit this song has made a deep impression on me.. it strikes me a lot!
Nice Songgg | Reviewer: Ryan.
------ About the song Teenage Dirtbag performed by Wheatus
I'm not too into the whole new rap. I do like old school stuff. I listen to 70's 80's 90's and 00's rock mostly. But this song is the best. My sister and I always save this song for the car ride and turn up that volume. This song brings me back great memories
Maybe it's because I am a dirtbag, or maybe it's just the fact that I think all guys have hoped for the girl of their dreams to walk over to them and invite them to an Iron Maiden show, but this song definitely strikes a chord with most everyone, since we all have to go through the extended agony that is high school.
This song just sort of takes that feeling of not being worth crap, adds it to teen fantasies, mixes it all up and somehow makes it sound like fun.
As good as it sounds though, I never wanna go back to high school.
This is a terribly awesome song ! | Reviewer: Tina|° 31
------ About the song Teenage Dirtbag performed by Wheatus
Well!! I just like this song for some reasons ! firstly, It brings up my childhood memories every single moment i listen to it 'cause I was 11 that time and it was a very happy part of my life, besides, it really tells facts and matters about teenagers while fallin' in love ....
Anyway as I heard in one of the posted comments, It's always spiffy listenin' to it .. with no obvious reason, It's like there is somethin' within it strong-arm me to enjoy it... ;-)

Okay, what the hell? Please, do not go around saying you're twelve and you conceived your child to this song, that's just innapropriate to everyone on this site and if you really were twelve, you wouldn't use words like that, mmkay?
BUT, this is a FANTASTIC song. I must have played it on my Ipod at least 20 times today and I absolutely can't get enough.
So what if the lyrics aren't the best and the band isn't the most amazing band out there, THE SONG IS AMAZING. <3
