  • one of the best head bangers

  • u think u can Bang your head to this?

  • 2:41 - 2:46 , is great to see Sully laughing :) and great song btw i cant stop listening to it :[)

  • WOW! Nice job on the vid man! I LOVE GODSMACK, seen them 3 times in concert! Thanks 1117 Comp for the info on the song, I didn't know that. I thought in my opinion it was about connecting yourself to the God & Goddess and nature, because Sully's a witch, and for the longest time that's what I felt he was describing, because I'm Wiccan also.

  • can someone tell me what he's singing about?

  • serenity he sung this for the movie and its about a ship

  • this song is about Neil pert from RUSH

    he lost his wife and son in a car wreck

  • Where did you hear that? I m just wondering. Id like to get that book Ghost Rider, I lost a son a few years back, Godsmack was his whole world. I cant even talk about him without dying inside

  • im very sorry for your loss no one deserves to lose a child you should diffinatly pick this book up its a very touching book. godsmack is also my whole world got them tattooed onto me if you like serenity you will diffinately love the book by neil peart

  • I have a dvd of them...they played this song and said that was about Neil....

  • one of my fav vids

  • how many instruments can Sully aactually play? I know he plays the drums, but what else.

  • i think he can pretty much play anything. Like he's one of those guys who is just very talented with music.

  • i love Thiss Sonqq I Hearr Thiss Sonqq Every Timee Im Madd...Cuzz It Calmss Mee Downn It Makess Me ForGet Bout EveryThinqq...I LOVEE THISS sonqq SOOO MUCHH!!!

    -SERENITY!!!!!!

  • Alsome song..!!! : )))

  • Pleassse everyone stop fighting. Every video I see the comments are so argumentative and offensive. Oh, and about the video, I love this song ha.

  • you're all STUPID, not sure why but I just get the vibe of stupidity when I look at the comments. I reckon if anyone was more stupid they would qualify for SSI and disability.

  • No it is not possible he may have used a simaler beat and or rythm but its still not even close to voodoo you stupid fuck dont comment unless you know what the hell your talking about

  • Um......I don't know how you can Rip off a song that is yours to begin with??? Its music...........get a life!

  • Sully ur the inspiration to the new generation of bikers, as a biker you are, keep doing great music just got your book and Ghost Rider: Travels on the Healing Road as you said in vegas your inspiration for serenity GOD bless ya all brother

    **LUCKY 13** LATIN RIDERZ MC P.R.

  • Sully is a biker! I wonder if he watches sons of anarchy?

  • wa up bro go to google and search 4 this book ( Travels on the Healing Road ) written by Sully all your ansewrs are there, live free die free brother

  • i like this song

  • Just all relax and enjoy the song..

  • i hate when people don't think before they say stuff o.O Sully wrote this song for neil peart cuz his wife or somethin' died :P its a completely different song my feeble minded friend :)

  • but deathsavillion, i DID think about it. and why he wrote it for whom is not the point. its the music..its totally ripped off Voodoo, just slower. listen to voodoo and then listen to this and then get back to me. and i take offence to being called feeble minded. u should know i graduated in the top 25% of my high school class.

  • It's not a rip off of another song. You said yourself the tempo is slower. And of course they'll sound somewhat similar. it's the same damn band.

  • yeah its the same band. and after making a hit song, they squeezed out an extra by slowing the tempo and releasing this song. just listen to them back to back.

  • You sir are a fuck-tard

  • and you have room to talk...right?

  • did you go to a special school?

  • i did!! ive been special my whole life. maybe thats how i was able to let all of u know that this song is ripped off voodoo. and........you're WELCOME!!!

  • The two songs have nothing incoming, except the rhythm.

  • um thats not the case completely different bass line different drumline by far and different guitar so not really

  • if you had an ear for handrums, you would relise that this is a COMPLETELY different beat, just because they use handrums doesnt mean there ripping off the other song >.>

  • It almost feels like they wrote this song just for me. It is in my opinion one of the 10 best songs of all time!!! Godsmack, you guys did fucking awsome!!!

  • This is one of the most amazing songs ever written and performed. I love it. Very soothing. Beat almost gets inside of you.

  • alot of bands write lyrics around the music

    or just have lyrics arleady written have not been put to use

  • lmao "i believe you are a retard..." that was awesome

  • all i know is that lyrics are written when someone decides they wanna right them

  • whoever says lyrics come before the music is a dumbass its possible that there is a band out there that writes the music first

  • No shit! I didn't knew that music writes it's self...

    As for the song - it's unique.

  • i need serenity

    nothing changes days go by

  • Lryrics first song first blah blah. I would belive that a medium would exist between the two as they compliment each other.

  • Oh man I just love this song, its number 1 on my playlist and er, I can never stop listening to it! So if you agree with me, if you like it reply to this! haha I love all god smack and disturbed!

  • the music is always first then thy make the lyric's because if you dont make the music first how will the lyrics be made?

  • sry, but it's the other way round usually.

  • you're a fucking retard, do you even know ANYTHING about writing music? lyrics ARE ALWAYS written first, how can you say something so fucking stupid, man?

  • Sometimes it's even so there's music before lyrics, they get any idea of making music, and after that, they make lyrics, wat suit for this music..:p ^^

  • not all the time.

  • Usually lyrics are written first, as a musician, to say they are ALWAYS written first. I think you are the retard. With all due respect.

  • ...lyrics are written when the fuck its seen fit. how bout that :)

  • Retard? Metallica writie the lyrics after...

  • like you know...dumbass motherfucker

  • I believe you are the retard. Lyrics are not always written first. Apply you,r own words to yourself stupid man!! I,m being stupid wasting my time writting this because you probably wont open your mind and stay stupid.

  • i'm with you on that, people can be real dumbasses

  • Are u a musican? Danodude22 because your a dumbass Guns N Roses Wrote the music before the lyics to make a comment like always means that every band or musican write lyics first which is not true

  • THATS EXACTLY WHAT I SAID DUMBASS!!! Read before you write! Comprehension obviously is not your strong point.

  • so I have a question about song writing. do the lyrics come first or the music? plz give ideas, wat works 4 u?

  • most people write song first so they can figure out how to word what they want and see what fits

  • Not always. Some times a band will have words before they have the music. Not often but it happens.

  • lyrics first, it's easier to fit.

  • j'en ai la chair de poule ce groupe est génial

  • ._.

  • lol Actually, neither this nor Voodoo have religious backgrounds. Serenity was inspired by a book.

    Voodoo was inspired after Sully watched the movie The Serpent and the Rainbow.

    But, Jack Johnson is pretty good, with the meaningful lyrics and soft melodies.

  • True, I get what you mean now. lol For the record, it was really late at night, and I was half asleep. XD

    But yea, not many groups make songs like this. It's one of the biggest things that makes Godsmack super unique.

  • very true...but this song has a strong middle eastern influence so that is why i believe people think this song is religious.....this song is about neil peart's(drummer of rush) book Ghostrider and is about how peart traveled around the world looking for a reason to live after his wife and kid died in a car accident

  • love this song  \m/(--.--)\m/

  • ummmm ok o.O we didn't need to know that

  • ummm...thanks for sharing.

  • thats awesome!

  • My only gripe with godsmack is that half of their songs are the same

  • they usually use the same chords played in different variations...i think they wanted to keep the same vibe to identify with their music

  • ...I thought I was the only one that noticed that.

  • I love this song!

  • Fucking ace song!

    I

  • Whoops, I hit the Tab button and then the Enter button before I finished.

    I listen to music regardless of the band's religious beliefs, I suggest you all do the same.

  • this song isnt good..... its kick ass

  • goooood song

  • is there anymore songs that are like this, and voodoo...from Godsmack ofcourse...or is there some other band with music like this??? plz someone tell me who is more involved in this, if i'm not mistaken, gothic style of music... :)

  • The Other Side has a bunch of acoustic songs by Godsmack.

  • great song

  • I will NEVER hold anyones religion believes against them, so please don't hold mine against me...

  • Yes!Great song!

  • 1!!! great song

  • Lol who cares if you're religious or not when it comes to listening to Godsmack. The band members that aren't religious don't condone that! This song was also written about Neil Peart from the band Rush, Neil lost his wife then not long after his daughter. Spiral is a song about reincarnation, go post religious shit on there lol.

  • I'm an atheist.

    This song is awesome.

  • can all you fuckers just get along? Mother of God men... listen to the music instead of turning this into a holy war. lets all just enjoy the music and rock the fuck out! What we need is a good brawl to push this shit aside!!

  • No shit man, this is music, so keep it music. I guess some people have a hard time with that.

  • Yes, totally agree to that hunny.

  • rock and country best music ever!!

  • i agree with rock but not country

  • grandiosa cancion, muy buena!!

  • im a christian but im not a church fanatic and i dont even go to church but i do believe in god

  • As for this brain washed theory of yours, I wont debate it. You've been given the opportunity to believe and you passed on it for now so, Good luck and best wishes my friend. My prayers are with you all that this ignorance will end one day.

  • Only when churches are destroyed

  • from the beginning of time music has been a weapon, a weapon of spiritual warfare. Music can in fact alter moods making you feel different emotions. It can calm the inner beast or release it. Proven fact.

    I think that's all they was trying to get across. Some people are weaker than others and can be lead astray by any little thing so they have to protect themselves more than others would need to. ^^

  • just a little fun fact for you all to enjoy, country music is what a large majority of people who commit suicide listen to

  • that was on manswers

  • I don't think this should turn into some sort of religion battle over the internet. Everyone has his or her own right to opinion and from what I've read no one spoke bad against this band so why bash them. It only shows your intellect.

    ProudSinner007, I'm not here to preach. I'm a firm believer (don't call myself a christian) and I still listen to any music I choose. I know for fact there is a God who does love us all but, one thing you do have to keep in mind ^^

  • best youtube comment I've seen in a long time

  • my voice when i sing can sound like sully erna and matt shadows voice perfectly

  • i saw them last night it was so tight man

  • I can play this song on my girlfriend's nipples.

  • You sir are awesome! LOL

  • hahaha i loved that

  • This song is not against god.

  • godsmack is so freakin awesome!!!!!! sully is soooooooo hot!!!!!!!!!!

  • people need to stop postin "I'm a born again christian so i dont listen to them anymore" nobody realy cares and if u r born again y did u listen toit again

  • if your some typ of born again jesus freak

    what are you doing posting on here. a hell of a long time ago i use to be brain washed too but then there is a light and its not god, take the good things out of what you see and practice them dont worship anyone but your self. i hated church they all were sickos the ones who did the brain washing- Godsmack is an amazing band and there not christian at all and there music is very deep. if your born again iam sorry for you.

  • i am christian but not that "born again" crap... I just fuckin hate it how all of Godsmacks videos are spammed with them! IF UR JUST GONNA TYPE THAT POINTLESS SHIT THEN DON'T EVEN COMMENT!

  • wow what a mean xristian lol

    he must not be that born again but then

    in the xtian world you eather are or your not. by the fonts of mr Xx Me- his fonts are

    a bit to loud- he must not be that born again like he says :)

  • Well...u r kinda right... about 50-50. I am mean I am NOT born again

    i am christian, but u either r or u aren't there is no such thing as "born again" to me it just looks like people are retarded douches for posting up "I'm born again so i dont listen to them anymore" I hate stupid people with a BURNING passion so that ticks me off and in my opinion u can never be too loud lol

  • Thank you!!!!

  • YEEEEAAASSHH

  • Im a born again believer too, but lets face it, the christian music sucks, if the christian music had beats and rhythems like this and a good singer like this i would definetly listen to it, the christian music needs to sound like this, all they would have to do is change the lyrics.

  • listen to skillet, theyre pretty good

  • What exactly is a born again believer??

  • Comment removed

  • ok not to be mean but just because u r a born-again christian doesnt mean u have to stop listenin to music like this

  • EXACTLY.

    (:

    and read this:

    The band's name, according to Merrill in the Smack This! DVD, was taken from the Alice in Chains' song "God Smack". However, Erna stated in a 1999 interview that "I was making fun of somebody who had a cold sore on his lip and the next day I had one myself and somebody said, 'It's a godsmack.' The name stuck. We were aware of the Alice in Chains song but didn't really think much about it. It's a cool song and the name had meaning for us".

  • lmao dude if you watched smack this you would no merrill was joking.

  • you are just another fu***d up person with no selfistem and you need somewhere to drop your sins...you found jesus for that...that shows weakness...good luck with that

  • whoopdie-fucking-do for u noone cares! hell im catholic AND wiccan! sully was raised catholic and this song isnt even about religion its sullys tribute to neil pert no one cares about ur praising a person who truly belives in their religion doesnt need to broadcast it

  • How is this song a tribute to Neil Peart from Rush? lol

  • watch the dvd that comes with the good times bad times cd sully explains it. he was reading neil perts book when he wrote this

  • lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Dude man, I like how your christian, So am I, I dont think its bad to listen to music thats against god, aslong as you dont Worship every thing they say. im a strong believer, And Godsmack Is my fav band!

  • Ehh... Well, music against god isn't the best idea ,but it aint the worst.

    I mean, Godsmack is Godsmack! Their song Shine Down is a pretty good one, too!

    But there's a limit to what kind of music christians should let themselves listen to.

    Like, for example, Marilyn Manson. I LOVE the sound of his music... but his lyrics, they aren't healthy for the mind and soul. Music DOES infact have a big impact on humans.

    But if you know what your doing, then go right ahead. :3

  • music is just music.. inspiration is irrelevant to whether or not it's a good song... I mean I'd never not listen to Flyleaf or Jars of Clay b/c theyre God obsessed musicians.

  • The best band there will ever be and I mean that GODSMACK FUCKING RULES!!!!!!!!!

  • That looks like a 12 string ovation balladeer. Can anyone confirm?

  • i love this song

  • I really love this song.

  • just awsome

  • I love 2:44-2:46

    a very good band

  • godsmack rules! they have everything: amazing singer, super bass palyer, and the best drummer! and the guitarist kicks ass too. GODSMACK!

  • Calm yet powerful

  • AWESOME band!! i love them & i would do almost anything 2 be able 2 have some FUN with him BACKSTAGE. Look at his eyes, his body, the way he moves.. im very CURIOUS and would do him any time

  • calm down lol

  • ya ur not sluuty at all

  • i trip on this song, every time.

  • they sound good live too.

  • Essa banda e nervosa pena que não tenho todas musicas !

  • This song is awesome.

  • this is godsmack essence without the riffs, shows the quality of musicians they are. the tune plays on your mind...
