i think he left it in there on purpose, not just to mute the strings but i bet he likes to create awkward situations for people and himself for fun, so by leaving it in the strings it creates that conflict with the audience. i do that everyday . lol its fun :)
Person who posted the video...you've probably heard this enough times already, but seeing as how you haven't changed it, I thought I'd say it again...you spelled cemetery wrong.
yeah, he sings it the other way around on the album version, it's the "if you want then when we die..." part and then "you're in my body". i noticed that too.
Maybe they sound alike when acoustic, but when the album versions come out the sound is very different. I would say the majority of his lyrics have at least one reference to sex which has been going on from the first album to this new one. That's about all that's stayed the same? I.A.R.B (and those before) had hate, I.D.o.t.G was dislike for some music scenes, and this new one shows more love. Basically he's matured. Although I do like the raw sound of the older albums, S.A is always great :D
as much as i enjoy Say Anything, i kind of find their songs to kind of all have the same feel. not necessarily sound the same, but they just kind of have the same feel to them. not a bad thing, but i'd like to hear a song that it just completely "who is this", "oh, Say Anything", "no fucking way!", but probably wont because of Max's voice.
stfu, if you dont appreciate a bands unique sound and music then dont go on youtube to watch their performances. no ones forcing you to watch this video so just shut up and go away
and the best bands are the ones where you can tell who they are by their constant singular sound and vocals. it shows that there consistent and can be famous without having to sell out and switch it up every couple of months. THATS why ppl love say anything. so shut it dumbass
uh, I'm sorry but I don't understand how many of their songs have the same feel at ALL. IARB is quite different from IDOTG, and even within each ablum the songs are all unique. Where do you find the same sound between Chia-Like, Alive WTGOL, Shiksa, Baby Girl, Died A Jew, Woe, etc?
Well, we all have different tastes, but I love Say Anything for the exact opposite thing - each song is a slightly new and exciting experience. (Unlike Nickelback, where I can't tell 1 song from the next -_-...)
Yeah, I know. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will be on there. It may very well be, and if not, I'll keep my fingers crossed for a b-sides album.
I got in on the Bemis song shop, and know he is just gonna kill my song. it is about addiction and i really believe he will know where i'm coming from. Last cigarette, last percocet. Dude it's just that i have grown up along with this band from is a real boy through defense. From what Max said about the new album, it feels insane how his music has paralleled and affected my life. Sorry for that spiel but it's true.
In my opinion Max's songwriting abilities get better and better as he gets older. I saw the track listing for the new record, i honestly think it's going to be the best release yet. Can't wait for it.
i cant wait for their new stuff...its gonna be sweet, sometimes i listen to some say anything songs and go, thats actually a kind of stupid song, but then again, its the best??
I wonder when say anythings next album comes out because I know that of late Max has been working with Chris Conley of Saves The Day on their project Two Tongues
is this one of the songs he's written for someone from the song shop that was on the web site? if so, i'm wondering if he wrote songs for other people because he couldnt think of anything else, i hope thats not what actually happened and he was just trying to help people out, but its good nonetheless. and is he still engaged to sherri from Eisley?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
new cd is dropping soon- in defense of the genre - supposed to be them getting intouch with god, also check out max bemis and chris conley from saves the day side project m two tongues, new singles called crawl good song, keep listening.
i would love to be friends with him :) it would be the greatest day of my life such a funny, smart, and nice person a very Good singer and writer a true genius
The cd isnt going to be called This Is Forever, its gonna be self-titled. You guys dont have to believe me, he said it himself on myspace. I cant wait for the cd! Two Tounges, and Say Anything, both in Jan./Feb. sounds like the best 2 cd's of the year!
this is such an amazing song. i can't wait for this is forever.
and i'm extremely jealous of all the lucky kids that got to be at this show. i'd kill to see one of max's acoustic sets, or any say anything acoustic set. and i'd love to hear this song live.
yeah i think he did that so it muffs the strings im guessing although it sounds horrible and dead with a picks there so guessing he wanted it like that :P
its not jesus rock...he's using heaven as a metaphor for spending the rest of his life with the person he loves...after all, he sang this to his fiance' the day he proposed to her.
