Boys Like Girls "The Great Escape" Acoustic Version!!!

[BelleMarielle24]

Martin J. is so clean back then; less tattoos, no beard. But his hair and voice are still awesome.

[drummerg2]

they should have called in sick..

[MihMihMi]

I love them! S2

[Drumerboy1989]

Awesome Singers... =)

[Yoshipimp933]

Boys like girls is AMAZINg :) <3

[bananaheadrocks101]

Martin's Story is HILARIOUS the guy is drunk and he still thinks its his bus hahaha lmao funny story dude

[BoUnDnBrOkEn627]

@bananaheadrocks101 haha and he's definetly talking about duke, cuz i'm pretty sure Joey didn't have a beard at that time, elias never had a beard...

[rawrgothimooo]

it´s like they´re wishpering

but still LOVE it!

[charlatanunveiled10]

again I think its funny how he said he wasnt gonna mention who threw up on his bus but he said the guy had puke in his beard lol whos the only guy in TRJA who has a beard haha

[baccarouche]

Martin is so cute!!!

<3

[thevancouverproject]

What the fuck...was not expecting that in the chorus. Touché

[AlleyLOVEScullen]

I dont like thiss at all!

[Menashabluejays]

WIXX!!!!!!!!!!! in green bay!!

[sujable]

@TheUrbalCrusaders ohreally?

ddnt know lol then MOST singers

[93acap]

i like the acoustic version..sounds better

[MrEngotako]

his voice is different compared to their records.

[sujable]

@MrEngotako well DUH all singer digitaly enhance their voice in the studio. compare ANY singer against there cd and live. they alls sound different

[TheUrbalCrusaders]

@sujable not all time low. they're better live

[Jetroejuke09]

lower tuning means he has to sing at a higher pitch

simple

[BassGuitarBoss1]

@Jetroejuke09 i thought lower tuning means u get to sing lower

[Jetroejuke09]

@BassGuitarBoss1 Yes, UNLESS you get down to the next octive. Which he had to do in this performance.

[seanliew94]

Love BLG !

[Neongem5]

martin iz awesome paul is pretty good 2 =]

[RachelAcoustic]

i touched martins crouch in a concert in dallas last summer WOOT! lol (:

[cassadeesminebitchh]

i was at a cobra concert and someone touched gabes crouch and he was like "girl quit touchin my junk"

[sabrinasmygirl1]

paul!

[ashley181292]

Loved what he said about the song... it's so true. We all can't wait to make the 'great escape'. LOL.

[YourInvisibleStar]

he sounds so different! like so quiet and cute!

[HeroMax1234]

he kinda sounds like a country singer. :P

[deepxobsession]

Hey just shut up! Paul and Martin are awesome. BOTH OF THEM are excellent singers.

[superahmuel]

@deepxobsession i love paul but he really sounds bad here

[Shizo211]

wixxen = jack off  lol

[emmieluvs2roar]

boyslikegirls is AMAZING. end of story .

[brandon4brandon]

Was he talking about Duke Kitchens about the puking incident?

[alisonnicolex0]

it sounds like hes almost whispering for some reason, oh well. hes beautiful when he sings <3

[AntDuBeke]

how can he not 'make it work' it's his own song, he can do to it and perform it in any way he wants

[Sooxcrazy]

Listen Thunder and tell us that Paul is a bitch

[Acid020646]

Mmm. That really high voice is Martin not Paul... you'd think it's Paul cause he doesn't sing very often.

[blackConverse100]

your the bitch

[Animexduo]

bleh screw off -.-

[REC0RDxSH0Px26]

yes he was deffinitely a little bit off pitch but i think he kinda makes it work in a weird kinda way. love himmm <3

[MAMAmiaEllis]

either im tone deaf?

or hes a TAD bit off pitch

(hence the word....tad)

[jothekid]

yeah i think Paul as like 2 strings that are a bit off but it still sounds ok i guess

[JaviWho]

gr8t song but i'm a boy and i like boys lol

[AaronColley]

oh my god...his voice is AMAZING probably the best live artist i have ever heard

[lovveejaann]

ahhh, just saw him yesterday <3 was a few meters away. bryan threw his guitar pick at me.

[adamthegreat42]

Holy Crap. Awesome voice.

[xiongyao999]

It's MARTIN! OF CUZ IT"S NICE!!! =D

[JLmusic1217]

That doods voice is nutz!!! (even with the dentist visit). If ya like BLG, Fall Out Boy, New Found Glory, or Fall Out Boy, you will probably like us!! We are called JustListen!, if ya like the music, friend us!! Rock on BLG!!

[WithSoManyTears]

Aww... So sweet sounding. :) They're the beeest.

[ChiOwnsYoursoul]

I don't see how anyone could possibly think he can't sing.

Clearly he's talented (They're both talented). I think that people can hate on them and dislike them for being apart of the Indie/PopRock movement, but they really shouldn't let that get infront of their ability to recognize talent when they hear it.

[Kird14]

i think the people saying he sounds like 2 people mean how one minute he sings in a fairly deep husky voice and then goes to a higher pitch really easily.

he's talented :)

[Wawesome]

all the bitches and haters, need stop saying he sucks live. cause think he can sing and play better that any one of you

[123bbiillyy123]

fair play to them, pretty deasent !!!! i dont see why people laugh or make crappy comments, this is pretty awesome

[JrTerrorist]

OMG! Why are people so confuzzeled when they hear 2 dudes! Do you not see to mikes?! LOL

[FallOutBoyLover753]

btw for all the people saying he sounds like to guys.. its coz they are BOTH singing :)

[YesiClaudia]

Boys Like Girls is offcially the best band ever, they are hot, ther music is addictive and amazing, great video!

And for only being 2 people of the band singing,its still amazing amazing amazing <3333

Claudia<3'sBoysLikeGirlsssss

[RainIsMyName12]

martins a fucking god

[LenaLovegood]

btw..i luv pauls headband :D

[LenaLovegood]

but i mean this is rele old.. he got way better now.. even tho i think this is rele cool too..

[4UCare]

DUDE. soudn like 2 people singing.

[ryherdj]

DUDE. there are 2 people singing

[xTresemmex]

DUDE. there are two guys singing

[perryjjj]

this is really kewl. They sound better non-acoustic though... He sounds really different from the other version.... wow... and he does sound like two guys singing

[donk4y]

lol he sounds like two guys.

lololso cool

[sordrado]

you have to remember that these guys are not used to acoustic, so he has to adjust his voice alot!

[457Newportgurly]

there really good!!, aren't there 4 of them??

[hilary4kim]

they really rock

never sucks

got a lots of bucks

[ParallelSoup]

They Sound MUCH Better Non-Acoustic

I Could Sing Better

[Animexduo]

really doubt that Parallel

[WooopAhhh]

I love it when martin hits high notes.

[gossiplol1013]

You said it !

[x3BiN]

chee they're great!

[loodleliddle]

I tottaly agree, i watched it on kerrang and thought "there is no way that guy hits that note in real life", and, i was right. x]. Why dont they just record things that they can actually do? Seems to be the case with most bands of this genre...

[AliceLovss]

im sorry, but the main singer just sings out his nose

[Sims2players]

Martin is amazing. If you don't like them, don't look them up!!!

[AliceLovss]

never said i dont like them, because i do. but you cant listen 2 this and honestly tell me he's doing an amazing job singing. he is singing through his nose.

[Sims2players]

This may not b his best performance, but he's still doing a great job.

[ydnapier199]

they sound good acoustic, but they are really bad, like really bad live with full band they can hit any of the notes on their cd

[snowdye1]

if you think they are bad, watch their aol sessions. they are really good

[AtlBlgJb4829]

these guys are so much better than john mayer!!! their sound is different and it sounds great

[ryanscott816]

i know iim gonna get thousands of thumbs down, but i don't care, i havent seen ONE SINGLE live version of this song that sounds similar to the CD track, this guys are good, but this has nothing to do to the CD, john mayer sounds JUST THE SAME as the cd live, this guys can't even hit the notes they record, that's so shameful

[natsumexmikan43ver]

then go comment that on a john mayer vid :D

[ryanscott816]

i already did a few days ago, thanks for the suggestion

[DanceHallDrug72893]

You know whats even more shameful, usually the ones who sound Exactly like there CD are posers. COMPLETELY FAKE: No one sounds exactly like there CD and if they do then they may not be playing live its a waste of time to go to concert to just be listening to the CD.

[ryanscott816]

i'm not talking about the typical performance of a Grand Openening, wich most bands use playback so they look and sound way cooler. I'm talking about this little performances, in radios, acoustic sessions, or backstage. Switchfoot sounds awesome, McFly does too, John Mayer, Lifehouse, Goo Goo Dolls, Matchbox 20... I'm talking about mixing songs so they sound awesome and then not being able to sing them live. Thats so lame.

[xXvollyball4everXx]

MARTIN/PAUL=TOTAL HOTTNESS!! i loveeee them both soo much paul is an amazing guitar player and Martin is an amazing singer :] they should perform again on 101wixx again for heels over head or hero/heroine!! that would be awesome!!!!!!!

[Petalsofmymisery]

Both of them are smokin!!!! Lol

[MadBananaProductions]

It looks cramped in that little area where they are!

[charmzgurl13]

I love boys like girls!

They're amazzziiinggg!

Martin is sooo sexy!

I love him!

:D

[jezzaR2008]

AH! He's amazing (:

[SurrenderTheLove]

[hiya192]

[atlbcpatdfobislove]

[FabbyGaby]

"i eat to much candy..." lol ^.^

[RockStarKimiko88]

[Ballet0312]

[424tink]

[ilovejoejonas26]

[ilikeponie]

[ahyee1]

i like the non acoustic version better

[blanklabel27]

he is so quiet when he sings low

[fichui]

lol its so cool how wehn he reaches the higher notes his voice changes so much (thats a good thing btw)

[rnaloro]

i saw them!!!!!!!!! waaaahhhhhhhh!

[TiiyEmoKiddRawwr]

no way

i can do that tis like having two voices lol

♥

[quietdrivefangirl]

OMG.

They love Quietdrive!!

[jaysoriano56]

he sounded like a sissy girl..

[SunnyCorpIndustries]

:@!

[Blacklace53]

lmfao i eat too much candy!!!!!!!!!!

[ChibiKyubi]

Nice! :O

[SpenceDiggity19]

his voice sounds nice low and high. its like 2 different singers. and i dont mean the backup vocalist. his falceto is good too.

[ChibiKyubi]

It IS two different singers.... you can EASILY hear the differences of the voices.

And the backup vocalist does the higher vocals in the chorus, you can easily see/hear that.

[Thegr8t2]

You sure about that? I mean

"Paper bags and plastic hearts" and "Throw it away" are not the same singer.

also

"Today is a winding road" + "Your Voice"

[komedyoferrors]

what the hell are you talking about??? Martin sings both of those parts

[Thegr8t2]

It was a reply ... I just realized my sentence doesnt make sens lol.

I meants are "...." the same singers.

It was a question.

[komedyoferrors]

oh haha

[kasumi4eva]

Your silly ^.^

you don't know what your talking about xD

[xnemoismex]

you can easily see // hear that martin does the high parts in the chorus AND the low parts you can hear when the backing singer is singing and he is singing really quietly under martin.

[gayeyeye]

woah he can sing good at live. i really like them!!! love the vocalist : )

[emmyt922]

ILY!!

they are so amazinggg

[Sk8r4life69]

this is insane

[BryanLovesTaySwift]

this was awesome...loved watching it!

:)

[chijmusic]

woah they're gd

[beanacena]

OMG they were in Green Bay & i missed them!?!?! i live kinda close to tha studio! im so mad jk *Dana*

[MirandaCAUTION]

i know! i'm in oshkosh and i'm like WTF..

lol

[lovejamm]

absolutely amazing <3

[MacAdam15]

I love how they sound when they get to the chorus!

[Sk8erzrmyheroez]

aww i love this band=] its weird cuz martin sounds different, but still amazing

[pinkmusic44]

ugh, they are terrible live.  so much better on CD

[electricguitarnow]

This is also acoustic, of course there gonna sound different they have to sing softer.

Anyways good job you 2! (martin and paul)

Loved it.

[Gi1moreGirl]

sounds good

[faulkner24]

this song is awesome!

[Musicxoxo4u]

Boys Like Girl sounds good live.. Martin's voice is so amazing..

[How2BeDumbForDummies]

Martin Johnson just naturally has a great voice. He doesn't need all the computers like other singers to sound good

[deamon93]

I love his voice.

[Goaliesoccer02]

Great job

[amgypsytown]

The RJA guy was Duke!!

[harfunkal]

lol poor dukey. He doesnt drink very much either:(

but Duke is the only guitarest with a beard. it's MASSIVE to lol.

[emilymisspap]

the tooooo low

[laodudealie]

fucking amazing

[emilymisspap]

mayb he sounds different cus wen the record it they make them sound dfferent

[xxcamerashyxx]

its like hes scared to be loud,, its weird.

[lostpig22]

well hes scared to be loud cuz its a radio station.. in a building with other offices i assume xP

[Nahrin327]

thats the dumbest answer ever

but thats the same question i had

[lostpig22]

yeah but the real reason.. hes at a radio station.. with a mic. and its acoustic. he doesnt want to over power the guitar.. or scream at listeners.. honestly.. that should be easy to figure out. hes not singing over a screaming crowd.

[smartalec1991]

they sound amazing man!!!

[lizzysk8er]

I love martin.i love the band soooo much and i saw them when i went to go see avril lavigne "the best damn tour:they were an opening act!!!

[xoxiluvmusicxox99]

he is so so so HOT!!!

[IrishPrincess500]

He sounds different..

[dianepuppypower]

i know! its.. weird.

but they still rock! :D

the acoustic version sounds

soo good.

[sogoodsowrong]

i love martin's laugh *O*!

[pittfanatic112]

i saw boys like girls in concert, and they didn't sound like this.

He sounds a lot different here.
