Sometime When You're On Video Request

Submitted by KRK on December 2nd, 2021 at 4:54 PM

I know anyone who was on this site back in the RichRod days remembers the video set to Rilo Kiley's "A Better Son/Daugther", affectionately known as Sometimes When You're On.  The Mr. Brightside video brought a tear to my eye but those of us who have been here forever would probably love to see an OSU highlight video set to that song as well.  A cleansing of sorts, considering how things have transpired since that video was made. So this is a request to any of you with the skills, please help us former HaloScanners out with some more highlight films.

i was in champaign for that roundtree game. if he scores, he likely ends juice williams' career and they go with the freshman QB. but no. UM doesn't score on the 1st and goal and juice blows up in the 2H.

i was also at that iowa game and brandon graham had one of the best defensive games i've ever seen...until maybe hutchenson this past weekend. unfortunately, we lost a close one in iowa city on that late denard pick after tate got hurt.

also, i think people forget how pretty damn good tate forcier and denard were as true freshmen and sophomores.

If there was a football heaven Brandon Minor would be playing RB on a Michigan team like the 2021 squad. One with a great 'O' line. He'd be plowing fools for yards and yards.

I would no joke contribute to a fundraiser to commission someone to make this.  That video still moves me, even thought I know what follows.  To have one for this season or more specially The Game would be amazing

I was a freshman in north campus in 2009 and this video was everything. Would love a redemption version made showing all the BS of the last decade and then the amazing 2021 highlights.

I second this request. I've watched the We Did It (Mr. Brightside) video several times a day and it'll go down as an all-time favorite. 

But yeah. I'm an old timer and it would be so cathartic to get a video with "A Better Son/Daugther"

To this day if something unexpected or good happens I say to myself, "Sometimes when you're on..."

I would also love an updated version to watch over and over. I can do some basic video editing but I wouldn't have the time for another week or two.
