when i was in high school

i really dug this song: "the freshmen," by the verve pipe.
about relationships.
strange.
because i didnt have a real girlfriend until years later.
but this song. i heard it recently. its cliche. its juvenile. its pretty melodramatic. but thats high school, yes?
brian vander ark wrote it. he still tours. here's his website:

but it made me think about someone.
and i cant decide whether the kid who put it to japanese anime is just a big goober, or a genius.
nevertheless, i still like it.
