The Format - Faith in fast cars (acoustic)

[wildwillyswalnuts96]

I love you dude.

[sarahedithobear]

is that carrot top?

[brantleymay]

Mickey Mouse, Nate? Only you..

[Chickenjuggle]

Fun. is better.

[pinkyMcfierce]

i know they didnt make a record for this song but does anyone know a places to get a clean version of this song please i love this song so much and it would it mean soooo much?!?! xx

[Jmmyewayn]

@pinkyMcfierce B sides and rarities it's on iTunes 

[pinkyMcfierce]

please someone explain what this song is trying to say? i love it but don't understandit!!

[mixcouldsinkthesun]

hair.

ughhhh <3

[CuduSassy]

Nate looks like a bum with long hair.

[ZombieBoyGrubbs]

@CuduSassy he looks cute.

[d3w3y123]

He is wearing the same shirt when he is touring with fun. In salt lake city

[ZombieBoyGrubbs]

Did they just go to Disney Land?

[ZombieBoyGrubbs]

There are alot of Indie bands who create quality music Nowadays

[702otown]

What a great band, it's too bad there are so few bands who create quality music these days.

[ZombieBoyGrubbs]

This has to be THE best song that has ever been created in the short history of the format.

[JustinDx17]

@ZombieBoyGrubbs I want to politely disagree. My favorite by them is "A Save Situation"

Short and sweet and full of emotion.

[ZombieBoyGrubbs]

@JustinDx17 I will someday do a cover of this song and i don't want people hating because iwant to do it for me :P

[demonic8888]

quality voice and guitar...what a waste to split as music nowadays is pure shite!

[emiloveyoux3]

One of the biggest blows to the music industry was the day this band broke up

[Gilliannn123]

hahah that hair! i can't get over it how different he looks now. don't get me wrong, he always looked good, but now he looks absolutely amazing.

[NNYownz]

@Gilliannn123

no. now he looks like mark wahlburg

[Gilliannn123]

@NNYownz exactly. which is why i repeat "he always looked good, but now he looks absolutely amazing."

[dom182]

I'd rather rub broken glass over my balls than accept the Format have broken up and Fun. is what remains, fuck Fun.

[Parsnipaplenty]

I cannot believe how natural-sounding and spectacular and flawless Nate's voice is. He must be amazing live. I'll find out soon. And Sam writes the most beautiful guitar work. It's perfect.

[whos0your0penguin]

I miss the Format, but I love Fun. I wish that they could co-exist!

[tiggleme22]

Fun sucks.

If you're a gay hipster you might like Nate Ruess' new look.

[Midlight3]

How do 8 people dislike this? :(

[shizzle31]

fuuuck yes!!! guild guitars for life!! :)

[CodyDylanSewell]

haha this is when sam was just growing a beard

[fmitawol]

!st band i ever saw live....i was a 15 -ish. <3 now im 21

[xxaarontnxx]

@fmitawol same here! they opened for the get up kids, dashboard confessional, and thrice in that order. I was like 10 or 11 then and im just about 18 now. when i saw them i had no idea who they were but now years later i think they are the best indie band... ever.

[pandalous]

Absolutely beautiful

[theformatforever]

makes me wish they were still making music together.

[breebayng]

wow  what a song..

[anonymousemcee]

thats all yer good for.....fucken song made me cry...

[KelsiesKarma]

awe good ol' Nate and Sam lol (:

[setphaserstostun3]

i think im in love.

[kevdog1337]

well my bad then, ill just go fuck myself.

[moonage6]

was that guy's guitar dipped in gold?!

[kevdog1337]

is it just me, or does the guitarist look exactly like seth rogan!?

[JAKofHeartsxtp]

def just you.

[TonyAndHisAcoustic]

Just you dude.

[Bloohimer]

i miss them so much :( i like Fun but they'll never match up to The Format's amazingness :(

[BrittleMoonShine]

this is one of my favorite songs of all time and this is the best performance of the song ive seen due to all the background noise from the cars passing by it truly adds to the song

[rapadasfilms]

so much love for nate, but what about sam? doesn't he get love too? i love sam :)

[LipsInJermyn]

I think they should be more popular than they are !

[yoursupercool1]

too bad they can't do that unless they get back together...

):

[Lydia8991]

don't talk about it. It's not true if you don't say it.

I actually saw Fun. a few weeks ago. It was really good, and since I never got to see the Format live, it's the next best thing. I'm never going to forgive them for breaking up though. Look at this video; sam and nate were just perfect players together.

[xc1d]

Side project of nates is going better for him

[yoursupercool1]

i like Fun., but i liked The Format better..

[ieatbrainss]

I love you, Nate Ruess.

[girlwithsunshine]

Oh dear, I love Nate too much.

[alashoop101]

wow nate. get a haircut! lol

love the song!

love the format.

[brockrostam]

Wow. The format was an amazin band.

He has an amazing voice. even live its nearly flawless.

kudos. The format has changed my life with some of their lyrics.

them and bright eyes as well.

[girlwithsunshine]

Amen to that.

[iamjeflacroix]

one of the rare performers that is flawless live.

they need to get back together and play a show in montreal.

[ccatie456]

imagine if you were to walk by and see this?! just totally nonchalantly, beautifully singing.

i would freak out, i love them.

im so sad that they broke up, one of the best bands ever..for sure. come back the format :( we miss you!!!

[sweetkitten33]

look up the band Fun, its the same singer

[ccatie456]

@sweetkitten33 im aware...i actually went to FUN's concert. It wasn't as good as the format though, i mean nate is still awesome with a beautiful voice...but without sam, its just not the same.

[samson120290]

@ccatie456 check out the band "fun." it is nates new band im starting to like them better than the format

[oscarwildewords]

@samson120290 i love their song 'all the pretty girls.' i found it on the n at like 2 in the morning, lol.

[punkmusicmetal]

@samson120290 whoa whoa, hey, hey. hey. whoa. hey now. whoa. hey. no but seriously, I completely disagree.

[jwizzlef]

[MayumiOtani]

[taylorsmaylor]

[jelloknight]

[Huntertington]

[kateincali1986]

[heyysammyk]

i love the format.

fun is just disappointing.

[death2poptarts]

fun is kinda is ok

the format is defiantly better though D:

[chichick99]

GAAAH I'M CRYING NOW. I knew another Format album after Dog Problems was too good to be true...but I still can't handle that they're over. Even after more than a year without them. Come back my lovelies!

[namimi1412]

I totally agree.. It's really been over a year.. I miss 'em too.

[Heron2167]

does anyone else think nate kinda looks like ben wishaw?

[Perfect1Stranger1]

They emailed me back once =D best day of my friggin LIFE ! ! lol

[the7upguy]

Nate has a new band. They're called Fun.

[sayythattagainn]

I LOVE THE FORMAT! This song is just another amazing song by them. Usually acoustics like this are ehh. But I shouldn't be surprised that with the Format it was flawless and beautiful, per usual. I want them back together :( my friend told me they broke up and i didn't believe it till i got home and looked it up. i thought he was meanly joking with me cause i love them so much. but nope :( GET BACK TOGETHER!!! :(

[samastarr]

So beautiful.

[schtiday89]

the format still leave me in awe, every day.

come baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aack :(

[alfhelm]

THEY NEED TO!! D:

[brantleymay]

@schtiday89 Just listen to "fun."

[NNYownz]

fucking nate is the best singer ever.

most people suck live

[Amerzz789]

this song is so amazing. there are seriously no words in existence that can describe how much i love (and miss) the format.

[bettylou4444]

His guitar case says "the format". I cant believe they broke up its so sad.

[goodwilltx]

they are not broken up.  they are only on "hiatus"

[knke0402]

aka broken up.

Until the get back together.

[goodwilltx]

aka as hiatus until they break up

[gabbbsterss]

i love this

[jenyouwhine]

I'm pretty sure he's in a new band called Fun, they have a demo out on facebook page.

[martin8771]

Yeah, but it's nothing compared to The Format :(

[themusicman007]

how sweet would it have been to go to highschool with these guys

[kamiakpartigirl]

I love you Nate Ruess!!

[cheergurl317]

i dont get what this song is about can someone explain to me please?

[boose1357]

pretty simple really. girls are only good for looking at naked. :)

[olp311tbs1]

It's pretty easy....The girl is a slut so being naked is all she is good for...

[ryushu]

a Gibson dove!

[swallowtailsland]

It's so ironic to see a little guy with a pretty voice and a Mickey Mouse shirt singing about the saddest things :\

I really do love this song. The lyrics eat at my heart.

[KinzleyMarie]

They are amazing. But even though I am addicted to this song I'm not sure i liek what its about.

[622tigerpop622]

he sounds great live ... most people suck

[IsOfTheUniverse]

I would love to see them sitting on a sidewalk somewhere, and just go sit with them for a while :)

[MonaLisaToldALie]

he honestly has one of the best male voices,

in my opinion of course.

this song always makes me sad o_o..

[ManchesterUPanda]

god damnit i want his voice

[terpboy6753]

this whole band is the meaning of the songs dumbass

[fastfredro77]

This whole band is his voice. I could learn the guitar part in 2 days, and I've never played before.

[lilliebugyeahh]

theyre so cool. i mean, i think nate was just like "hey sam, lets go sit in a parking lot and sing"

[mayjunejuly789]

this is brilliant. i miss this.

[CadyLovesVish]

;------; they should be arrested for breaking up. it's not fair. i think nate's doing a solo album though, hopefully it'll be wonderful

[RedBoxBoy]

just amazing. Sam has mad skills. They should have done a farewell tour.

[PhotogenicMovies]

I agree. Man, it really sucks that they're gone.

[xoxsugarsweetoxo]

hahah i love his mickey mouse shirt lol.

[panderson22]

can you imagine like walking by and hearing this holy crap i would have an orgasm right there

[dorkey12347]

ya lol <3

[kashiiampersand]

I love Nate's hair in this. Why do good things have to end?

[prov169]

Are they still together?

[curseofcurvezz]

nope=(

[paige2958]

pretty sure

[thirtyoneflavs]

They are from Pheonix AZ

[adamamrani]

wrong. they are from chicago illinois

[tat2collector]

if you're gonna shoot someone down try knowing what you are talking about. they formed in pheonix arizona in 2001.

[Steoandnoodles]

according to Wiki, Nate Ruess is making a solo album due late this year, if this is true...I will still miss the format but Nate ruess is cool :)

oh why did you break up?!?! it's not fare! I only have you and another band on my ipod.

[paige2958]

i dont think thats true

[copyyland]

whaat ? is it true ? no no no they can't break up ... my god who told you they did ?

[24572457]

they told us they did...sad but true.

[Jaegund]

official website :( isn't it sad!?

[SteviesLastTry]

this band is simply amazing. his voice is so original, but beautiful at the same time. its bands like these that make life worth living. you can relate to so much of their music

[theonearmedman]

I've listened to this about 200000000000000 times now.

Im addicted.

It's so amazing.

[gabbagabbas]

so sad they broke up

[techeney]

i know. i feel like i've lost a best friend.

[musicchick09]

ditto, their definitively know how to write a lyric.

[LoveMySpade]

WTF?! WHEN DID THEY BREAK UP!?!

:'[

[NomadicHerder]

Beginning of this month.

They say They're on hiatus, but we all know where that goes D;

[minimcrrules]

They didn't break up.

[theonearmedman]

GAH.

I love this.

[MattElsarelli]

"Could you please leave all your cloths on, and let me sweat this out"

So good.

[Redlettermike]

The Format rules. This is a nice video, wonder what the story is behind it

[FrenchyTimeMovies]

I love how this video's on the side of the road. I wonder if the people passing by were realizing that they were passing by one of the best bands this decade.

[musicchick09]

I was thinking the same thing!

[DeniseAstrid]

verryyyyyyyy niceeee!!!!!=)

[maywat]

That was.. amazing. I'm speechless.

[tastethefreedom]

thats what she said

[DMS109]

Amazing.

There is nothing like this band.

Love em.

[InuxKagxlover]

Simply beautiful. Nate has such a soothing voice. Does anyone know where to get a MP3 of this? I would deeply appreciate it.

<333

[smcleod7]

its on their new cd that just came out, you can order it off their website.

[InuxKagxlover]

I have it. It's pretty amazing.

[xspankxmexpinkxx]

ah please send me the tabs i love this song : )

[Shelltop22]

Just perfect. :]

[wolfeyes108]

even though nate always looks like he's half-dead or really tired, he gives a stellar performance.

[fycdarling]

his voice is amazinggg. so is his shirt ;].

[lajoielavie]

uhm..."hot cali girl"...

didnt you hear the part he said "could you please leave all your clothes on?"

disregard all else nate said except that.

PLEASE LEAVE ALL YOUR CLOTHES ON.

and nobody who lives in california calls it "cali"...unless theyre thirteen year old abrocrombie and fitch junkies.

[ashton2005]

omg. his voice. its breathtaking.

[ridedownlow]

heartsign your so right, i saw them at the worcester palledium 4.15.07 and they were so fucking loud!

[JuJuHound]

gotta love the wind in the hair. totally hollywood.

[heartsign]

It's too bad their shows are completely ruined by 15 yr old girls singing over top him.

Grats idiots! You ruin shows. Get fukT!

[alyvp92]

I got cursed out by some girl at a format show

she was singing snails directly into my ear and very loudly so I asked her politely to please stop... bad choice.

[MeagainMeagan]

pretty song. pretty guitar!

[KidEcho123]

Amazing.

I never get tired of seeing them live.

Ever.

They're always this good or better.

[AravisCrockford]

my beauty my faith my notes and love letters you are, and be, to keep to slay to memorize, like teeth, like permanent, forth

[fuckmerunning55]

he sounds a little sick here. like he's getting over a cold or something. still REALLY GOOD. love them.

[fiddleronthegreen]

cant lie the lyrics arent amazing but nonetheless simplicity is beauty.. and this my frends is beautiful

[jslrox]

holy shit this is a great song

[reactorfallout]

only thing good about this video is that Hummingbird.

what the hell is that guy singing about? i guess you can't expect much from a guy that wears a mickey mouse shirt.

[mrmayor92]

your a dick

[rndmguy09]

u obviously dont know anything about guitars or music because first off thats not a hummingbird idiot its a gibson dove and second off the lyrics make perfect sense as does all of his songs he is just above ur level of thinking lyrically so before u talk shit about his amazing music at least know what ur talking about first
