[thoughtuwasfresh]

Me and my girlfriend decided to call this our song because our relationship has been exactly like this

[DevotedJoplin]

i love reliant k, it is awsome to see people do Gods work...my band has been in the ministry for a few years now and wouldnt have it any other way.

[jakepryor9]

The first time I heard this song my girl friend showed it to me right after we declared it our song cus our relation from start to now was just like the lyrics. :)

[Souplover28]

This is going to be me and my fiance's first dance song :)

[3overv]

[MisterMusic93]

[stripedsockszeroro]

Nice to meet you.. I'm you're other half <3

[DaBushCaptain]

cant beat a 414

[MPHarges]

I cant share this! :(



[obg3684]

I would love to hear a Relient K "Worship Album"

[drpdeeznutz]

if you have firefox theres an ad-on to download youtube videos as either a video or an mp3

[yangmasuka]

This is the best thing in youtube

[LoveHateProductionz]

aw this version is so sweet!

:')

[milksfavoritecookie7]

Does anybody know where I buy this version of the song? Ive looked all over.

[akosiKAT21]

thanks to my ex gay crush for introducing this song to me:))) it's been a year. . .

[KatzDontDance]

Beautiful...less is more. God is. =] He just is.

[AEBillabong]

This song seems soo much more beautiful and relaxed if it's acoustic. Well actually, Relient K's just talented...so they could even perform this song with everything electric and I'd still think it's amazing(:

[rifeey223]

love this song, its more beautiful acoustic though

[BASSMAN77gh]

I thank God for everything that has happened in my life, mainly because he brought my girlfriend to me and I can't think of anyone else I would want to live the rest of my life with. God is the best matchmaker!

[1msmamasita]

awesome



[Bardie2kay]

8 persons doesnt understand the word "music" ...

[LateNightTableCo]

It is crazy that Theissen plays all of his songs without a pick. That dude has to have the most callused thumb on the planet.

[heliek]

@LateNightTableCo I never used a pick, except for electrical guitar.

[LateNightTableCo]

@heliek I know other people do, but he NEVER uses a pick, even when he plays electric and plays leads. He does it so he can jump right back to piano during live shows and just got into the habit.

[TheSmorrone]

"you should have said nice to meet you, I'm your other half. This is this best thing, the best thing that could be happening and i think you would agree the best thing is that it's happening to you and me."

Max, I love you with all my heart. You're everything I could ever want and ever need. Nothing will ever change how I feel for you, no matter the distance, no matter the struggles. You're my everything, my "best thing" will you go to formal with me?<3

[antoniobfmv]

cuz you've surpassed all that i hoped for and ever wished :]

[snwdreams]

I'm trying so hard, with all my heart and mind...to make your life as good as you've made mine.

[snwdreams]

They are so much better acoustic...anyone agree?

[ohyouknow92]

@snwdreams oh definately! up and up acoustic is soo amazing.

[TheDasboy]

@snwdreams all versions of all there songs are great

[yohanzo]

@snwdreams I don't know... the fun and energy is kinda lost in this song. I kinda like the cheesiness of this song. lol

[drpdeeznutz]

@snwdreams YESSSSSSSSSSSSS

[somo010]

Click me for my cover!

/watch?v=fe1sy4Acskc

[LightDragons7]

iTunes needs to add all of RK's acoustic songs to their lists (vote up if you agree :D)

[Burgyboi09]

I dunnooo man i just dunnnoo

[4kix0404]

BEAUTIFUL! Angelic voice

[hdkrauss3]

love love love this song -3 -3 -3

[hdkrauss3]

[emowithbridge]

This Is The Best Version Of This Song, Live And Acoustic.

[emowithbridge]

He's Dreamy. SO Friggin Dreamy. Ugh.

[addicted2music365]

What are the tunings for this version? I know it's not in standard. Is it a half step up?

[babymatty19]

Amazing song! I love it!

[emowithbridge]

I Absolutly Love The Recording Of This Song, It Sounds Completly Beautiful, He's Amazing, Go Rk Boys! <3

[WhiteOutMinistries]

Jesus is my favorite person in the world...but I really think He gave me my girlfriend to be my second favorite...

[cptnslaughter]

@WhiteOutMinistries wat the fuck ur fucked

[ShPrEsA10]

@WhiteOutMinistries hahah cool - it's great to see how God blessed his children with such gifts

[dylan5956]

@WhiteOutMinistries jesus isnt real.

[ThatChickOnXboxLive]

@dylan5956 not cool....

[darialois]

@dylan5956 that's okay. Just remember, Love is real. So love yourself and love others and you'll do fine :)

[j23fhg2m]

@dylan5956 ΙΕSUS ΙS REAL......

[drpdeeznutz]

@WhiteOutMinistries my pastor has always said God first, family second, and everything else follows

[Spike294]

@drpdeeznutz Very wise. This speaker, when talking about marriage, said "When you become a Christian it's not just about you anymore. It's about God. And when you get married, you're not second anymore. And when you have kids, just keep movin' down the line." Love it.

[cougarpride92]

I'm seeing their acoustic show in Pontiac, MI on the 16th. super pumped

[rememberingsundayatl]

me and my bf's song(: its so prettyy!!

[dollfacejojo]

well i'm sold.

[mannywayne666]

going to see them dec 7th! sooo excited!

[tamakifangirl1]

@mannywayne666 lucky duck!

[HugglepuffOboeGirl]

Awww this song... It's so sweet :D and it reminds me of my life at this moment... It's wonderful

[DIANE1028XD]

I Love This SOng...

[blink182ftw3]

i really got to fix my relation ship..

[StephanieBuenviaje]

I love this song, <3 it explains my relationship, (:

but on another note...i've been reading the other comments and i don't think he's good looking at all. i kinda think that girls only like him for his voice. like, if you saw him walking around town and he wasn't famous, i'm pretty sure a lot of you wouldn't even take a second glance.

i'm not hating, it's just my opinion.

but anyways, Relient  K is a really good band, (:

[lnknprk5912]

@StephanieBuenviaje around mmhmm when he had shorter hair(like in the who i am hates who ive been and be my escape video) he is deffinatly attractive lol.

[mOqkiiniita]

wow!!

very nice!!! :D

[nanakdvd]

You should've say "nice to meet you..i'm your other half"~~<3

[BlackGlass29]

absolutely BEAUTIFUL song!!! <3 You guys know what real music is all about :)

[abbysbud]

Words cannot express how amazing this song is. :) <3

[rockinrobyn360]

I love Relient K so much. But on a completely different level than other bands. I may drift off and go be obsessed with someone else, but no matter what, these are my boys :)

[sonjasis]

he looks a bit like frodo...but I loooove the song and his voice *-*

one of my favourite songs ever <3

[StSwSo]

Does anyone also think he looks like Frodo?

Anyway, good song ;)

[rememberingsundayatl]

aww my boyfriend dedicated this song to me <3

[KathrynofPluto]

He's so awkward. :) So cute.

I love this song.

ilyJC

[nathanjhon1]

The Best thing 1 year later forget and not slow down.... fighter..

[FashionFreek9678]

WOW, thats all I can say, Relient K is the most amazing band...ever, no one shall ever compare them to that gay beaver(bieber) dude. All of there songs are amazing no band could compare to them:) THIS IS THE BEST THING!

[kilyman123]

Relient K is a good band I just hate it how all the girls make it look like a gay justin beiber seen, I've heard so many conversations saying that their gay and stuff and it's because people say they "reject" girls, they don't reject girls, to let you know something, there a Christian band that's why they reject girls because some of them are in relationships or to busy... So that's why.

[TheNayc]

beautiful music, beautiful band - such a shame no one knows them in Denmark.. except me :)

[CodyorJustin]

Hickup! Lol

[lovedeyes]

I happen to think he's not very attractive at all. His voice is soft but strong, and it keeps you wanting to listen to what he has to say next. It's so calming and beautiful. Acoustic sets ftw!

[z4hr14]

I don't think he's that gorgeous..

But omg his music is beautiful.

[Browneyedxkid]

:O

wow

:)

[96858983]

someone got the tabs for the guitar? :S

[ilikedinosrawr]

@philippfuelb dude who gives a shit. he makes amazing music and just so happens to be gorgeous...sorry that fans feel the need to throw that out there, but hey it's just honesty!

[YESidoloveRelientK]

this band has it all doesn't it? great music, addictive lyrics, and none of the people in the band are screwy :) hooraah

[danX2TV]

does anyone have the chords for the acoustic version?

[CharliBobMarlieX]

I Love this song(L) It has so much meaning!

[CollegeSwimmerKid]

Awww.....see the engagement ring on his finger???? that's so sad. :'-(

[Chloroflurolly]

@CollegeSwimmerKid well, he's 30, he can't stay single forever

[Sergioandjose]

@Chloroflurolly i thought he was 20

[Chloroflurolly]

@Sergioandjose no, he was born in 1980

[bubblemakergum]

@CollegeSwimmerKid He's single now...Aha and almost 30 O_o

[OHHbeatmewithastickk]

@bubblemakergum no, i'm pretty sure he has a girlfriend.

[bubblemakergum]

@OHHbeatmewithastickk He was engaged, but she broke off the engagement. He's now single. At least that's what his MySpace says aha.

[OHHbeatmewithastickk]

@bubblemakergum yeaah , but i saw him with his family at a festival [i live in his hometown], & he was with a girl that he looked pretty cozy withh. lol,

[bubblemakergum]

@OHHbeatmewithastickk OH. Okay then. Haha. Maybe he does. He needs to edit his profile then.! Haha. :p

[prinschelli91]

Matthew Thiessen is cute, but i like relient k because of their great music not because of how good looking the lead singer is.

[cappuccino619]

Wow! I have heard this song many times but not sung in this way! Tbh I really enjoyed this so thankyou for still keeping this on Youtube.

[TheMorlop]

does anybody know the chords they are using????

[christianpunk777]

@TheMorlop i don't kno the real names of these chords lol : Half-step down tuning

play the high e and B strings open the whole time except for: D2- xx0230| now the other chords: A- x02200 C#- x46500 D- x57700 B- x24400 E- 022100 F#m- 244200 G- 355000

Verse- A C# D B E (x2) D2

Chorus- A F#m B E

Verse

Pre-Chorus- D2 E D2 A B E D2

Chorus folowed by- F#m A B E

Bridge- F#m D2 A E F#m D2 G D2 E

Chorus (x2) end on E

hope that helped :)

[TheMorlop]

@christianpunk777 I'll have to try it out

[TheMorlop]

@christianpunk777 that could actually work, but i think the C# should be x47600 and it is an A9/C#, if you ask me... thanks for the help!!!!!!

But i don't think the order is right :( at least i can't make it work.......

when do you use the G? and is the D2 like this xx0230 ?

[christianpunk777]

@TheMorlop woops XD ya xx47600. That's what I've been playing, but for some reason I said xx46500 :p and I messed up, the bridge should be

F#m D2 A E F#m G D2 E

that should sound better :p and the G should be at "with all my heart and mind" and I'm not sure if that's the right G chord, but it sounds close enuf :p and ya the D2- xx0230

[christianpunk777]

@TheMorlop Woops sorry. End on A lol :p

[christianpunk777]

@TheMorlop Oh and the intro/interlude or whatever is just that A chord. I'm sure u figured that out tho :p lol

[whirledpeace818]

I absolutely love this song...and now that I've heard THIS version, I love it even more.

[alaskanxhippie]

relient k is my love ~ i dont know where i would be right now if i had never heard their music. love them... sooo much (:

[JesusRocks198]

wow i love both songs.

[spreadtheword215]

pizza pizza pizza pizza pizza i love how this comment has nothing to do with this video

[JesusRocks198]

@spreadtheword215 wow oh well at least your watching relient k meaning you have a life

[aiiirdryy]

i LOVE this song, and i LOVE relient k! my boyfriend actually sent me this song when we first started dating...it was so cute :]

[Porkbutts]

2:40

[oqueso11]

whoa

[theHirokoHojyo]

this is amazing :( i love love love this song, since forever.

[sweettthaang]

AMEN!

[nathanjhon1]

best thing happen to me and Jesus

[StupidSillySongs]

love all their acoustic performances!

[Wildwind]

I want this to play at my wedding while I'm walking down the aisle

[13rittney3]

I am walking to this :) Or its my candle light song. either way..its incorporated.

[dancingfreakalicious]

@Wildwind that has always been my dream ever since the first time i heard this song.

[falsettomaster]

Yes, it is, but if you don't know already, Relient K's songs are all intended to be taken both ways

[kingkenfu]

um, i get a feeling that this song is meant to be a really intimate love song directed to god....

is that right? or is it meant to be understood both ways?

[iMissNintendo]

Who is this song for... "when i looked into your "eyes...?? anyone have a clue

[JesusWorshipRevival]

JESUS!

[iMissNintendo]

ya I used to think that, but then he says "cause when i looked into your eyes you dared to stare right back, you should have said nice to meet you I am your other half." 1:22

Jesus is my other half now. but for some reason this song just didn't seem the way I used to hear it.....

[JesusWorshipRevival]

im glad to hear that!

[speechless00]

hey what do you think about danceprincessx3 answer? I love Jesus completely :).

[JesusWorshipRevival]

It's sad about him and shannon..."Forget and not slow down" was writen after they broke up, but this song was writen for Shannon but the meaning is meant torwards both her and Jesus. They made it like this so it would have a mainstream impact though because they dont accually mention who.

[danceprincessx3]

@iMissNintendo he wrote it for his girlfriend shannon,who later became his fiance,but they broke up.

it was more so about the situation of being totally in love.

[were2gonext]

ok when i was like 5years old i was told there cristian. is it true???!!!!??!?!?!?

[alec2trevalin]

yes its very true

[JesusWorshipRevival]

yes!

[13rittney3]

I'm walking to this version of this song at my wedding <3

[fivescoremmhmm]

Like it? I Love it!!! Such a beautiful song, ever better acoustic :)

[supergirl11097]

i love this song and them theyre the best band ever!

[samtorrance5590]

Favourite band!

[sagu4]

your voice is hot!

[ChrisMarie93]

oh my gosh make me melt why don't you?! beautiful!!! :')

[NotDisabled]

Stunning!

You told in the first ten seconds that you would hope I like it..

and I can tell you I DO I DO I DO!

[TheBetter10x]

i dedicated this song to my GF :DD

i LOVE this song!!

[luzo0o0]

" (Thumb up) you like this"

[dontlayeggs]

I recently discovered that Relient K is also absolutely fantastic in acoustic.

[eveemusic]

this is my favourite song, love love love this ♥

[brandonviz]

cant finad any good guy covers of this song, no one knows how to let go of their voice and just sing

[pleggles]

That a beautiful song.

[Leftypowerhouse09]

hes a beast love this song!

[ThenameisSamm]

I have a huuuge crush on the leader singer:)

[dontlayeggs]

He is married or something!

[megnvballgirl]

ditto that! hes the best thing since sliced bread! so is relient k tho.

[rocio2001]

this song are so so so gooooooooooooooooooooooddddd

[benedikt11]

pretty cool ... I do really like this unplugged version !

[spidertroy4]

there is a video for this song...its pretty cool. :D

[philippfuelb]

All the fan girls need to shut up with there "Hes so hot, and his eyes are georgeous". Shut the hell up and listen to the song. Thumbs me down, I don't give a shit.

[SheftonJonasShow]

how bout this?:

not only is he so fine and his eyes are beautiful, but this is song is too :)

[kilakam09]

OMFG

can you please post this on every band video out here because you just say what others were afraid to say!!!!!

=) thank you

[JesusRocks198]

@philippfuelb ok honestly i know you have your opinions and i respect that. but just to tell you i love matt's music and his face so that's just a bonus to the lyrical genius he provides to the world. but i do kinda agree. :-)

[xMissJessiica]

@philippfuelb I adore Relient K because of their music, not their looks. Just because someone says Matt's attractive doesn't mean you have to get all offended and angry. Get over it.

[xheartbreakxer]

@philippfuelb LOL. weird...you must be unattractive. or else that wouldnt even bother you...

[philippfuelb]

@xheartbreakxer

Yes, my back is covered in acne, my face oozes with puss and snot, and my face is forsake with miserable pimples. To help eeze the pain of being an ugly teenager I go on Youtube videos and rant about fan girls.
