  • i need u defenseless, dependent,and alone. gave me chills

  • at 1:52 Fred awkwardly looks back at Mark... (p.s. 152 is just irony. beside the point)

  • @ARWhite420 i dont understand but im very interested if you wouldnt mind explaining =)

  • fred has rabbit teeth

  • wish his voice was still this good, damn cigarettes

  • oh god adam touched my face while singing this a few nights ago and i started crying

  • How can you dislike this?

  • Wow.. when ur sick.. the cuts can make you nauseous...

  • although john nolan made the best album, the band was best with fred. im sorry, but matt fazzi just sucked.

  • both fred, and matt rubano need to come back

  • I love how many cuts are in this video... lol

  • 2:34 I got goosebumps

  • in some parts adam has a glove on and others he doesnt:P

  • I love how you can tell these are like 3 different takes.

  • i luv tbs but i just discovered this song and its my new favorite song my replay button is now broken

  • Adam Keeps changing the way he holds the mic and its always between 2 different angles. Suspicious... I love TbS but i have my doubts about this performance now.

  • @mcrsum182 OMG you're so right, he totally wasn't wearing those black glove things and then all of a sudden THERE THEY ARE

  • @crashlove11 also adam changes which hand he holds the mic with like every other shot. but the way it looks makes it look like 2 different performances.

  • ADAM = GOD

  • ahhh

    They gave Fred a bad mic all the time :(

  • Best live performance I have ever heard.

  • I still can't get over the way he sings "Habit" the first time! I mean, it's beautiful. Definitely gives me an eargasm!

  • my heart feels like its going to explode from happiness every time i see them perform <3 I love them with all my heart.

  • TBS with Jon Nolan was the best.

    

  • Fred should make a guest appearance on TBS' next album...one with tons of screaming :D

  • @lookitscasey they are beefing yo that aint gonna happen.

  • They WERE great with Nolan. And then Fred came, and they were still just as awesome. And then Fred left, and then they were really, really bad.

    And finally, John came back. And now, as a fan, you're more torn than ever.

  • they have such a organic style. just good clean music

    

  • One of the most beautiful songs in the story of alternative rock, astonishing lyrics, incredible voice, beatiful guitars.

    Someone can call it perfection ?

  • What kind of vocal chords do Adam have? Dammit...

  • TBS with Fred is by far the best version.

  • @himynameisryy

    eff fred

  • @himynameisryy Nope

  • @himynameisryy Fred was great at what he did though

  • @himynameisryy THANK YOU. I've been saying that for the last three years!

  • they're better live with this guy

  • His voice sounds a lot better than usual......

  • @blake2112 it's called autotune, lol

  • I love the vibe this song gives off!

  • yeaah adam ever :D

  • They're amazing live. Tbs will forever be my favorite band. Everyone check out their new song El Paso

  • @yoitscourtneyandemma it was awesome and i am from el paso!!!! i missed them when they came... :(

  • @vonnyyay im from el paso to

  • @vonnyyay im from el paso too

  • @monkeyfrut sweet what part?!

  • @vonnyyay far east side. u?

  • Comment removed

  • Are you ashamed to say what you want to telll me you want to

  • love how Adam FEELS the music

  • Pure magic. These masters crafted some of the best melancolic anthems ever made.

  • sadly the audio they're playing is not them live. If you watch adam in front of a crowd has his shirt sleeves rolled up.

    then it cuts to adam in longsleeves.

    so obviously the audio they used is from a soundcheck or rehersal before the show.

  • @irishdawg87 I think they took the audio from one performance but the video from at least 2

  • My favorite TBS song ever...but Adam butchered the ending.

  • good shit

  • amazing!

  • I think this is even better than the studio version.

  • Awesome backing vocals!!

    I love them for that... unique experiences!

  • BEST.

  • did you coppy and paste from different live performances?

  • haha ive been coming to this video for 4 years now. never gets old

  • 10 people aren't wet

  • love this song

  • he can't hit them high notes like he used to

  • potatodude

  • Awesome performance

  • I like terrible things better personally taking back sunday is good but i prefer terrible things

  • she says live up to your first impressions...well my best side was your worst invention...why cant you live without the attention *sang extremely emotional*

  • Pause this at 2:46!!! Lol :)

  • i think adams more focused on sounding good then entertaining the crowd

  • @itztricky1000

    Music is about sounding good. If you sound good, you will entertain the crowd.

  • is this somehow fake? watch adams hand and the way hes holding the mic when the close-ups change angles at 1:13 . Its messed.

  • @TheIanchapman where have u been? this is on youtube for more than four years and people were talking about that from te start. it's taken from two shows and the vocals are autotuned while putting together. why'd u think it sounds so good?

  • @TheIanchapman Im pretty sure he uses a mic that sustains his notes, thats why its like hes singing when the mics not close to his mouth sometimes.

  • @TheIanchapman Like Eldiggo412 said before, they filmed this several times (notice the slight changes between the audience shots and close-ups).

  • i think this is the best ive ever witnessed them live! it was really good

  • @MissJulietteKayy because it was shot several times to sound good on tv.

  • Go on just say it!! You need me like a bad habit <3

  • Amazing!

  • i'm pretty sure adams voice cracks pretty bad at the end but still a great song!

  • OH WHEN HE SAYS "YOU NEED ME LIKE A BAD HABIT" Mmmmmmmm <3

  • its defenseless

    no

    DEFENCELESS stupid!

    ^_^

  • I miss Fred and Matt :(

  • @MissMiserables where did they go wat happened?

  • @shagonwagon01 Fred left the band a couple years ago, then Matt Fazzi replaced him. But now Fazzi and Matt Rubano have also left. TBS are now back to the lineup they had on Tell All Your Friends.

  • Amazing.

  • 10 humans don't like this video. have you got 10 bullets ?

  • This will always be my favorite stage of Taking Back Sunday

  • IM JUST SAYING!! IM JUST SAYING!!!! I NEED YOU DEFENCELESS, DEPENDENT AND LOW!!

    fucking awesome!

  • @coltstang123 "I'll just say it; I need you defenseless, dependent, and alone." xD Butt. They are epic lyrics regardless.

  • I mean, the video's obviously edited, just look at Adam's sleeve. Up then down. I'm sure everybody has noticed that.

    But by "edited" I don't mean it was pitch corrected or quantized. It's still Adam's live voice and still Mark's actual drumming. The audio was just mixed, the same way a live DVD is mixed, to get a great balance and have everything sounding just peachy.

    They killed it. Besides, Adam still misses a few notes in here. That's just him. It's what he does. But they killed this.

  • probably their best live performance, the song is awesome

    2:34 stunning!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • this is the best line up they've ever had

  • Does anyone know what Fred is doing when he's at the amp? I know he's doing something with feedback. I wanna get that sound when I'm playing.

  • Look at eddies hand xDDD

  • oh my jizz

  • i miss fired

  • why tape on eddies guitar?

  • @johnLAndino people should give eddie more credit, he's the ONLY band member thats been in it the whole way threw, and I'm pretty sure he made the in the first place!

  • @itztricky1000 yea hes awesome

  • Man, I know everybody is pumped for the return of John Nolan, but this band is seriously going to miss Fred more than people think. Listen to the two of them harmonize.....he was tremendous live

  • wh othe fuc cares if john nolan was in the song or not and if u like it or not.. because if not ur just some drama bitch.. tbs owns little kiddies.. DEAL

  • used to be SO amazing.

  • adam sings pretty high in this song.

  • 9 people don't know good music.

  • back when they were good

  • @Tang526 agreed I miss the old tbs days

  • @Tang526 

  • @tmanfender

    no, thats not the reason he left, u got his words mixed up. the reason he left the band was cse they were always fighting about who would write the songs and how they would write them, and he said,"the band was more LIKE cooking food than making music". he didnt mean it litterally

  • @WhiteRican22. You've almost go it right. Fred was writing, it just wasn't appropriate for TBS and swung move towards the style of his solo project, so the band rejected it. It was a writing difference -- which, I think, is what you meant.

  • This is my favorite Taking Back Sunday.

  • Fred is the freakin man...too bad he left...but he's with his new band Terrible Things..who are amazing..hes with Josh Eppard former stickman from Coheed. They are releasing first album 8/31.

  • i got the chills when this came on. freaking amazing

  • this band gives me fucking goosebumps every time i hear them

  • i'm wet.

  • @Armistance Sorry about that.

  • why can't you live with OHH(echo)

  • @MrPunker33 paramore is much better live but they can't put on such an energetic show like taking back sunday always have. i rather have adam lazarra screaming his lungs out, out of tune, sweating like a pig, and mindblowing emotion and passion than a studio perfect band. don't get me wrong. i love paramore but taking back sunday that's the gold when it comes to energy. tbs ftw!

  • @izzyatnine couldnt have said it better

  • Sleeves down...sleeves up. Sleeves down...sleeves up. Edited. But ahmazing. <3 <3

  • @RhymesWithMorgan

    I'm amazed I didn't realise the first time I watched it. But yeah, great sound.

  • @RhymesWithMorgan Glove off... glove on. Gloves off... glove on!

  • wow this is my new fav TBS live vid (: theyre amazin <3

  • this is definitely edited.....

  • @Yankees4Life714 yep! they are terrible live...or were terrible i guess now they suck in separate bands 

  • i love this song

  • wow these guys f*cken rocked at were evr they were :D

  • why is it that on most of the angles he is holding the mic one way and then another way on the next????

  • Jerkin' off T9C1

  • @PocketJMC lol

  • Where the heck is Eddy in all this!? :(

  • @T9C1PSayWha lol WHO!?

  • Awesome LIVE music video. One of my favorite songs by them

  • I love the lyrics on this song actually everything the progression of the song and the mood just everything fits so well

  • Hard to sing it without auto tune huh adam?

  • @chem6b

    Dick.

  • @chem6b Since when does Adam use autotune? Maybe pitch correction, but every artist does these days. Idiot.

  • i miss fred and matt.

    :(

  • I don't know but Adam kinda looks sexy in this Video xD

  • adams sleeves change loads.

  • @thecolorF yeah what the fuck? he cant possibly keep rolling his sleeves up n down that quick. summats not right there

  • @tomalmgill

    lol somebody else noticed it wash a mash up of like vids too?

  • fucking amazing live they sound so good

  • eargasm!

  • probably the best ive heard em live

  • adam's best vocals live but his best performance he had more energy back with nolan....maybe the quality of the mic is better..

  • @QuoteMe93

    he went through buttloads of vocal training after the album tell all your friends.

    or maybe before...?

    i dunno he had training sometime tho lol

  • are you ashamed to say what you want to tell me you want to

    =]

  • wish fred was back.. they stinkyy now

  • @mikeb7791 WHY?? when you can have john nolan!!!!! yes john is back in TBS!

  • @mikeb7791 dude your crazy! its the original line up again

  • clearly becoming the band i have listen the most !

    Fred is defo being missed !

  • def prerecorded or something because adam's sleeves are up and then down and then back up. lame

  • rubano, fazzi and will noon should join terrible things with fred...

  • fred was born for tbs

  • I love fred!!!

  • kicks the other singer square in the pants. I don't know too much about TBS but some of their videos look like fucking jokes, the ones where he doesn't sing the lyrics. Or sing at all for that matter. He just yells. No thank you sir. If I want screams, I'll listen to someone who can scream well.

  • I love how people commenting on this video are complimenting the singing. You guys do realize that they edited the fuck out this performance's audio, right? Adam is spotty at best live.

  • @tytygood They were this good supporting Lostprophets, who are terrible.

  • @tytygood I realized it was edited when I noticed the close ups of adam he had a glove on but not from far away

  • the singings pretty good. not bad at all.

  • good, but doesn't do it justice.. you have to be there! i love this song and it was amazing live. i can't wait to hear it again LIVE! been a fan all along, always will be, they're amazing.<3

  • This is possibly some of the best vocals ive heard by these guys live, its pretty much spot on

  • @withnoregards its been edited, for sure.

  • @withnoregards Professionally live recorded version always sound the best. They record every track individually then they can edit in pro tool later. Makes the experience more enjoyable.

  • @withnoregards Except for 3:15-3:19, where Adam sort of (actually, really) sounds like a cat being strangled.

  • @withnoregards the vocals are edited but they do sound amazing

  • @withnoregards thats because they video edited it for a dvd

  • @hitch23213 this wasnt on a dvd it was live on myspace dumbass

  • @johnLAndino sir, that changes anything? the fact is, it still went through a lengthy editing process. notice how they dont miss a beat? editing, fuckhead. you, my friend, are smart. listen this as opposed to their other earlier live music. I love you self righteous pricks who miss my point all together, and focus on a small detail instead of the big picture. Thus making you the dumbass.

  • @hitch23213 i was at this show in the back you stupid faggot, this performance was broadcast live over myspace and the band sounded the same live as they do in this video that this kid ripped from the live stream. funny how people say performances of bands are edited that theyve never seen live.

  • It's funny, shithead, how you jump to conclusions like this. I have seen them live, multiple times, and everytime they were out of breath and missing notes. I love their recorded stuff but their live is lacking.

  • @hitch23213 you must be confusing TBS with the jonas brothers.

    they prob just didnt give a shit cuz they prob hate your shitty city. i mean, i wouldnt waste my time trying to sound good when im getting payed to play a show for a bunch of fags like you.

  • @johnLAndino You put up a very solid, logical argument. I applaud you

  • @withnoregards They pitched it down I think, which would help, it does sound spot on though, hell yeah TBS!

  • fuck it the hwole song was perfect
