The Academy Is...: Winter Passing

[shelly10841]

OMG i wish they will get back together. They are an amazing band like a real band with real music unlike other shite bands with computer music eg: black eyed peas !! xx Plz if anybody agrees start a facebook petition or sumthing they r amazing nd they deserve every fan xx

[UndertheLantern]

@shelly10841 As nice as it would be to have them back, I have to say it wouldn't be the same. William stated when they broke up that they weren't working well together anymore, and that if they stayed together they would have ended up hating each other. As sad as I am to see them go, I have to say they made the right decision to keep their friendship okay. Friendship over money is always the right decision in my opinion.

[shelly10841]

@UndertheLantern Good point, still wish they were together though, maybe they did make the right decision, friendship is more important. Can't wait for Williams new album though ha xx Thanks so much for the reply xx I can tell ur a gr8 TAI fan xx Thanks again xx

[bvbarmy4lyfe]

William Beckett looks so hot in this video<3

[AddieAtrophy]

When your mom was finally like, "When they go on tour again you can see them." And they break up. SADFACE. ),:

[LadySugarth]

I want them together </3

[LittleBeckyy]

Winter 2011

If Santa is real he'll get this band back together for my present.

[earthtoissa]

[hannahmarren]

@earthtoissa He's already under mine though o:

[gayfordiannaagron]

[nalbatros773]

cRIES because bAND

[MoulinAgathe]

Dear Santa, since I've been very nice, these are my 3 wiches for Xmas:

1°) Could you put this awesome band together again ?

2°) Please make theme go to France for a concert.

3°) Make my boyfriend get the exact same haircut as William.

Thanks

[draucan]

@MoulinAgathe love the first wish!

[kingoftheroadIVAN]

MAKE THIS SONG AVAILABLE TO WATCH ON MOBILE !

[TheSeance18]

this song is just adding guilt to the weight on my chest. Still looking for those words to say...

[ninjawildebeast]

I'm about to have a breakdown in class watching this. My favorite band decided to break up!!!! FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!! I mean, i know it's old news or whatever, but they meant so much to me... </3

[mcrluvr4life1995]

i am crying watching this ok this band was so perfect why did they break up?? </3

[TheCttttt]

William Beckett is truly an extraordinarily gorgeous specimen in this cold hard world!

[mccovers123]

he's gorgeous yo... absolutely divine <3

[ThEcaVeANtics]

The Academy Was... :(

[ourwildlife1]

<3.

[friizeereiita]

owww i just can say ow! the singer is so pretty i want a boy like this! <3 and his voice is so cute not the best ofcourse!!! but cute and sweet <3!!

[MissCriminalCari]

GOD DAMN he is one sexy bitch.

[0ILikeStuff0]

I miss The Academy is...

[LAwesomeable]

@0ILikeStuff0 Me too. I wish they hadn't broken up. They were a really good band.

[Coenum]

I'm watching this in 2056.

and, no the apocalypse doesn't happen. but, yes, the academy is... still fucking rocks

[MyTrustpro]

CHRISTMAS IS NEARRR !

[xXxChocolateLovexXx]

The Academy Is, Was, and Always Will Be. <3

[TheyCallMeKelliMarie]

ugh. <3 santi.

[noypingu]

Kinda took them for granted and now they're gone. We shouldn't take awesome bands like these for granted, not with the downward spiral happening to music nowadays. We should listen to every band like it's their last day being a band. :D

[Deecupcakez]

did they realy break up? coz for the past 4 years or more theyve changed my life just by listening ot their music ...i miss them ..

[nyfromdahood]

@Deecupcakez sadly yes, I cried, god knows why they did, but I blame the butcher and michael guy for leaving in the first place... they had so much more potential :c

[Deecupcakez]

@nyfromdahood  =/ true

[Deecupcakez]

beautiful :) <3

[aimiswimmer23]

This is so beautiful.

I miss them :'(

[darylxo11]

escuche esta canción mientras veía el anuncio que escribió TAI sobre su separación... rompí en llanto y luego vi qué todo con el tiempo pasa......

[theangelandkings]

Jolina BONES!

[haihaihannah123]

NNNOOOOOO!!!!!! WHYYYYYY???? :'(

I LOVED YOU SO MUCH.

(That deserved all caps)

[rehlo3]

@haihaihannah123 AGREEE :D :(

[mmushaboom]

TAI is my favorite band and always will be. I am literally torturing myself by watching all of these music videos and old TAITV episodes. I never thought it was possible to love a band this much, but I guess that's what happens after six years of listening/following/loving them.

[kingoftheroadIVAN]

REST IN PEACE TAI!

[ShiningxOn]

I miss TAI... they got me through so much just because their music.

[21scottenriquez]

the academy is broke up :(

[danielwarnerdw]

straight*

[HimynameisMaxMax]

every time i see william in any video he left me speechless for his gorgeosness, and i a straight guy

[danielwarnerdw]

@HimynameisMaxMax you called a guy gorgeosue bro your not straigh lol

[HimynameisMaxMax]

@danielwarnerdw then i must broke up with my girlfriend i believe e.e

[FailX5]

@danielwarnerdw I think, we can ALL agree that William is very cute. Yes. (I am a guy, I have a girlfriend) BUT, nevertheless THIS IS TRUE.

[ezbg]

tjis is probably filmed 10 min from my house

[MsFizher]

que buena cancion enserio

[rubbertoasttacos]

i doubt that any girl has ever rejected him before

[trainwrecksz]

@rubbertoasttacos oh my god, I know right? He's too perfect for life...

[ShiningxOn]

@rubbertoasttacos ikr he's hot, great voice, hot, great hair, hot, etc. and hot XD lol *crazed fan*

[BlackHawk940927]

jodanse los qe le dieron dislike

[zhiTfuck1]

Ou  shiT ... amO esa kanciOn !!!!

[ChutesandJammers]

WoW! Hell Yeah!!! Love The Academy Is...Been listening to a lot of TAI, Hey You!, My Chemical Romance, Green Day, Sick Puppies, Blink-182, and The Used...

Hey You! is still pretty new, but they're waaaaaay dope.  Pop/Rock/Punk with a real cool edge. Plus they've got a pretty cute chick singer :-) ...check em out...

search "hey you band taking over"

[BoomSnapBangPop]

He kind of reminds me of Severus Snape. :P

[ninjawildebeast]

I'm on a TAI kick. They're my favorite band, and I almost started crying when I found out that they had a rubber fatty bracelet that said "I'm Yours Tonight" that was only available when they were on the AP tour. Yes, I am such a loser, but they are my favorite band (as I said before) but anyway, I love this song :D

[jeffrickygods]

and i wonder why cant every song be like this

[101ILoveMarina]

i still can't pin-point what makes him so adorable. <3

[janicatthedisco]

I can't believe they took time to write this on a tour bus between concerts... they're just an amazing band and I really feel connected to them as a fan. When I listen to their songs, I feel like all of the people and things that have ever made me smile are being transposed into a series of the most realistic, living, notes I have ever witnessed.

paragraph of flattery over

[puddaz444]

My favorite winter song, by far.

It still gives me chills.. (:

[MyTrustpro]

LIKE IF YOU STILL LISTEN TO THIS SONG ON 2011

[CablosD]

@MyTrustpro dude this song is from 2008, it's not old!

[MyTrustpro]

@CablosD I didn't said that this song is old.

[xXxChocolateLovexXx]

@MyTrustpro No. I'm watching this in 1764.

[ffaf295]

Goodness, William is adorable haha - oh, and his voice is fantastic. :)

[TheCelinacation]

Proof: You dont have to have colored eyes to be beautiful.

[Camii1231]

God! how could someone be so adorable

[BeanExhaler]

It's hard to find inspiring lyrics like this in songs these days..

[mikeylovesharuna]

lead singer is such a cool guy :) and love TAI :D

[marymonstersauce]

[JerikaHoneyCombs]

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE SAME HE MAKES IN 2:18 IT IS TOOOO CUTE.

[TheSeance18]

William is hilarious. When I first met him it was in New Jersey and I was on a barstool trying to see him sing. He gave me pointing to me then throwing his fist in the air with me lol

[lovexandxsilence]

38 ppl love the summer ¬¬

[rockbass777]

[StoneGregory7]

@rockbass777 Nope I'm here as well. Too often... -_-

[randilon]

@rockbass777

I ussualy ask myself the same when im watching TAI videos!!

[Fleedmn]

As attractive as William Beckett is, it sucks that he gets all the attention.

[karina3562]

Holy pants. William is SO cute... when he smiles I just.. oh ma god, I cannot even..

[Fleedmn]

@karina3562 "Holy pants" Thats hilarious.

[xNickJisOffTheChain]

This song is amazing. I can't stop listening to it.

[zarrazorro]

the song's ok but this video sucks...too bad...

[12xxMusicxx12]

Why cant more bands like Escape The Fate do christmas songs? Not everybody loves the choir versions of christmas songs.

[kennethcatastrophe]

@12xxMusicxx12 escape the fate will never be on the same level as the academy is. atleast not in my opinion lol. the academy is will always be light years better.

[magturb94]

at 4:12 he smiles and it melts my heart!!!!!

[Beatles4everL]

William Beckett(l), it's nice 2 b ur gf n-n

[scratch189]

@Beatles4everL Lemme just crush your hopes and dreams now.

You'll never be his gf, you'll never be able to "cuddle" him.

Get over it.

[magturb94]

@scratch189 true. but its fun to fantasize, but I like that you are a realist

[scratch189]

@magturb94 i fantasize too, don't worry

[EatsBabies100]

@magturb94 fantazizing is what i live for!! i just got done watching a scary movie and cuddling with william beckett!! (:

[PS3CommunityGaming]

@scratch189 says the skinnyass dweeb spending 8 hours each day behind the computer.

[scratch189]

@PS3CommunityGaming nice name.

lemme guess, you do CoD montages because it's "THE BEST FPS SHOOTAR EVAR"

lol, fag.

[PS3CommunityGaming]

@scratch189 hahahahhahahah!!!!

its funny because u play runescape xD

[scratch189]

@PS3CommunityGaming lolol xD

[stev019]

The video kind of kills the music. The music is great though.

[PeopleLIVEandDIE]

2:20, orgasm.

[madisonwaverr]

I wonder how many people have looked at all of this and tried to figure out exactly where there were filming.

[XXTOKIOHOTELXXX]

@madisonwaverr eh d filming was in the road where they shoot homealone

[madisonwaverr]

@XXTOKIOHOTELXXX that makes sense. 'round the chicago area. that's pretty awesome. :) though I already expected it to be in the burbs, but hey.

[janicatthedisco]

I can't get through 15 seconds of this video without crying.

[IXxquartzxXI]

TAI rocks ! !

[shopgirl926]

William Beckett is going to be performing at The Arboretum of South Barrington on Nov. 27th @ 5pm!!!

[musicluver6248]

awee williamm :) <3

[rammsteinfan02]

The song is beautiful,his voice is beautiful but most of all What a beautiful smile William Beckett have...I just melt

[CrimsonRain169]

I saw them perform this like 3 days after they wrote it, and it was even better live. It's definitely one of the prettiest songs of this genre.

[xmusicxisxlifex666]

@CrimsonRain169 Damn, you're lucky. Haha =D

[noble117]

One of the best songs out there. You just don't get this kind of voice anymore, it is so unique :)

[MsBunny1993]

@TheGraphical its about music Not fashion, if people are that shallow not to like a band because of their fashion scene then they are looking at the wrong aspects of music.

[patFpeteOandyBjoe]

the intro of "i don't love you" by MCR reminds me of the intro of this song :]

[conversechick14]

he kind of looks like Nick Drake.

[ThatAlboChyk]

@conversechick14 yea he does actually!

[katjakitty22]

@TheGraphical You might wanna learn how to spell SENSE before you criticize people for it ;)

[screamyourassoff]

@TheGraphical That's stupid. So you're saying music shouldn't be judged on how it sounds, but on how the people look?

[Eric388cr]

I love these guys why am i just finding out about them

[SaRahLoVeSwIlLiAm123]

@Eric388cr idk but I'm glad you finally did

[Eric388cr]

@SaRahLoVeSwIlLiAm123 yeah me too i love them

[Erickmanostijeras]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW I LOVE THIS SONG¡

[mikey12O]

i think this is one of the best songs they ever made other than, The classifieds, Slow down, and like all there older songs :D

[xtophbeifongx61]

Beautiful :) as always! The emotion is wonderful,not just in this song,it's in every song,it either makes me cry (or want to cry) or want to dance around singing at the top of my lungs,or both,lols! <3 This band

[rhodesjackson]

i usually dont listen to this type of music but theres just somethin bout the academy is that makes me love it more most music

[theacademyisforeva]

i love this song !! beautifully written , it's real feeling so it means more with all the emotion.

one of the best songs to come out of tai ! 100 percent sure :).

[alex75000]

[Adambobro]

These guys are opening for kiss? HA! I guess Miley Cyrus' opening slot was all booked up

[RenaSunflash]

This is a beautiful song and the video fits it perfectly. Does anyone know which city the video was filmed in?

[pruefalloutkid]

@RenaSunflash it was filmed in Chicago if i remember correctly :)

[ForgivEarl]

so far nobody can cover the lead guitar n there's no tab for it... i wish Michael Guy would do a tutorial video... =(

[1965sharron]

all you need to produce something beautiful is appearantly william beckett's mother and father... XD thumbs up if you could fuck him so hard you'd put him in the hospital... mee :D

[danonGASKARTH]

holy hell, he's beautiful.

[lawlietalan]

[TheSeance18]

@rachyray12 I met him at the roseland ball room, 2 years back. I was tired of the pit, so me and a friend decided to stand on bar stools and try to get a better view of the show, and while i threw my fist up to catch my balance, he threw his fist up at me xD

then while on the way out of the show he saw us and was like, :I saw ou 2 crazy chicks dancing on the bar" lol hes really sweet :] I hope you meet him :]]

[Emmyleesdeee]
