[breecute]

@MissKrippehMisery, this song reminds you of your boyfriend?? do you hear what hes singing? im guessing thats not a healthy relationship lol 

[thegreatcheesedemon]

@breecute The chorus, she means. It's romantic, even if so many parts of the song aren't.

[8XxAnGeLxX8]

can someone send me the link to the book shawn was writing please, i cant find it

[VideoJunkie2300]

I love this very very much! Sounds like Danny in hey there mr. Brooks

[DannyG3E]

@VideoJunkie2300 Actually, Danny and this guy both sing in that song. Good ear.

[katiejo1996]

@VideoJunkie2300 shawn milke is featured in hey there mr. brooks. it isnt danny singing the chorus.

[MissKrippehMisery]

This song reminds me of my boyfriend. I love this music video.

[ghostface185]

I imagend the start of the song to be shawn being surrounded by mirrors seeing her face, but this works.

[xXxneonblack4everxXx]

okey thgis song is getting plain out addicting 5th time hitting the replay button

[65Deadzombie]

@rainbowsherbertlol sup?

[MegaSuper06]

shawn looks really hot when hes rolling his eyes

[MrWhatsaJob]

Am I the only one who thinks that he sounds like Danny from Asking Alexandria? Because when I heard "Hey there Mr.Brooks", I couldn't tell a difference.

[Skrillex2TheMaxBro]

@MrWhatsaJob danny wasnt singing in hey there mr brooks, it was the singer of alesana

[crystalowls]

@MrWhatsaJob Shawn was the one singing in that song... the clean vocals at least.

[DrivinHanyou]

@MrWhatsaJob Never put Asking Alexshitria and Alesana on the same level.

[dawdawdadawd]

Made me think about Jeepers Creepers, Thumbs up if you agree!

[gothik226]

I woke up and those words were playing in my head. ♥

[AnnaLetoBiersack]

Lol at 4:32 ahaha

[gothik226]

Im goth, but besides goth metal, blck metal, death metal, etc...i do love metalcore & deathcore.... i dont really listen to Alesana, im more of a Asking Alexandria fan. i just dont know what Alesana's genre sounding is, are they metalcore, post-hardcore, hard rock, i just know wht genres they are, but if their good i will listen to them,i do luve a few songs from them though...

[johnhyx23]

@gothik226 They've described themselves as a pop-metal band but their genres kinda differ throughout their albums. They have some metalcore songs, hard rock, emo but mostly sound post-hardcore.

[MrMikel009]

"of an beginning" wtf

[screamhardordie]

Please Check out my cover of the thespian. I'm a new screamer and trying to get good and maybe start a band someday! please help me out and watch and comment.

[SpeculationOntario]

Too long of an beginning...

[howiethequeen]

AY THAT BITCH AINT DEAD! RUN NIGGA RUN!!

[perefo]

@howiethequeen :lol:

[perefo]

@howiethequeen :lol:

[zRSnipin]

Me gusta....

[Oviedo1611]

To people who don't like this kind of music....don't listen to it

I personally think its very good music :)

[pokemonsaga]

Why is everyone typing long paragraphs of arguments? You aren't going to change anyone's opinion.

[Bennetttyoung1422]

the music all of you listen to is bad

[LionGatteMovie]

@Bennetttyoung1422 but we are bad soo it fits perfect ^^

[LionGatteMovie]

@LionGatteMovie btw I just speak for myself, not for all of you so dont hate me ^^

[HmNiTyTy]

@Bennetttyoung1422 Can you please repeat that? But, this time in in English.

[xXkittyrawr4Xx]

I don't know about any of you people arguing about the genre, but would you believe how many times I've tapped the replay button? mmhmm

[NerdyKukanda]

The Screemer Is Abitty Mentaly Challenged..

[CommiEmo]

@Froggiefied That's just not true. I take it you have a very underground taste, and that's fine, I like a lot of underground as well as popular, but no need to go bashing on other ppl's taste of music, you should be more tolerant of variety, and also, being popular doesn't equal selling out.

[iffyMYstiffy]

The best way to descrip what type of music they do would probably have to be POST-CORE.

[DrivinHanyou]

Brace yourselves, the Genre Nazi's are here.

[Froggiefied]

@DrivinHanyou haha you are so original man, please go to another site i cant take it.

[canyouhugmeporfavor]

I always pictured Annabelle to be much prettier...

[FelixBudSmoker]

the lead singer is shemale

[LOVEBEPEACE12]

@FelixBudSmoker Your a shemale!!!!!!!!..In a good way?

[cheefgr8]

is it just me or is the lead singer a babe in this video :)

[Heartbreaker13579]

@cheefgr8 Shawn Mike is always a babe. I met them at Summit Music Hall in Denver and I got to hug Shawn Mike, he's just as sexy in real life. and he sings just as well. I love them.

[sskk88forlife]

Dennis is so fucking creepy in this video but its amazing

[haleysayshi1]

haha wow labels. And wow theee lead singer his name slipt my mind but he is so hot

[ETFbmthBOTDF]

Dennis Lee and Shawn Milke are my heros

[Paytondoll]

Pretty sure the emptiness album is based after the works of Edgar Allan Poe. This is pretty much a tribute to his work. Poetic. Mainstream music sings about getting laid and drunk while Alesana is paying tribute to someone who is a famous poet. Doesn't that just spell out which is better. Alesana -3

[Jquesnel1000]

@Paytondoll you just read my mind! GET OUT OF MY HEAD YOU SCYCO!!

[samuelthemovie]

@Paytondoll laid and drunk is pretty much where the sun is silent album.

[turtlesatemycookie]

1:13 :3

[WeAreTheNothingg]

"emo"?! What the shit?? Music is music. Stop putting a fuckin label on everything.

[TheCarmillaShow]

@WeAreTheNothingg By default, emo is a music genre, but I get your point.

[treytoler]

this is a great song my favorite part is when the screamer is talkingXD

[JumperPad96]

Dick-dead girls who listen to alesana just because of Shawn Milke..

This world is so sad .___.

[TheCarmillaShow]

@JumperPad96 Right? I'll admit, Shawn is an attractive guy, but chicks listening to the band JUST for that, is like buying a cow just because it has pretty spots.

[RhiannahMay97]

Shawn Milke, anyday;)

[copsvshippys]

Yah this musics post-hardcore a really poetic form its like I'd say correct me if I'm wrong emo core mixed with death core you could also say just a derivative of hardcore.emo core is slowly dying all emo bands hair is turning back to normal....now all senses fail and hawthorne heights sings about is therapy. we all can get together to listen to post-hardcore to get are emotions out withought being judged

[CommiEmo]

@copsvshippys Yeah that's true, emo/post-hardcore rules and we must not let it die, it's true music, not like fucking pop just singing about happiness and retarded shit, but expressing the reality of life and really helping all of us that need music like this. I'm glad that bands like Alesana are clinging onto what makes them them, staying with that emo style and that post-hardcore/metalcore music rather then selling out and becoming pop shit.

[Froggiefied]

@CommiEmo lmfao, this emo? this is pop shit. look at them selling out on youtube and new albums on itunes, real emo is diy and you only find it in basement shows not at a youtube video with over 3 million views.

[CommiEmo]

@Froggiefied You are an ignorant fool, just because something is popular does not mean it isn't good, or a paticular genre. They arn't sell-outs at all. Next you'll be saying Nirvana isn't grunge because it has millions of views.

[Froggiefied]

@CommiEmo nirvana is grunge, but the real heart of punk is keeping it small and not telling other people what that you are emo, just like your username, it can't be true that you know anything of emo when you think alesana is.

[CommiEmo]

@Froggiefied That isn't true, I know that Emo started in the grunge background, but the meanings of words change, the genre's developed. I know what you're saying might of been true in the 90s but not anymore. People argue so much over what a genre is, but I say usually you can tell based off what they call themselves, Alesana recognizes to being Emo, or atleast Emo-influenced, so I reckon they are. Also, Punk doesn't have to be underground at all, just look at Green Day, they're Punk as Fuck.

[Froggiefied]

@CommiEmo and on you page you tell us you provide us with ''emotional rock?''

emo is short for emotive hardcore punk rock. if you don't even know what it means why would i listen to you?

[TheRevantproduc]

@Froggiefied I fucking love you

let's tear down youtube.

[CommiEmo]

@Froggiefied It says that because it I do upload a variety of genres but most of the music I upload is rock and emotional, although not necessarily Emo. Just because a band is listened to by teens doesn't mean it's bad ffs. Green Day really is punk, to say otherwise is ridiculous I mean they set the perfect example of a modern Punk band. I know it's different to the bands before them, as Alesana is different to the 90s/80s Emo bands, but Genres do change. This is Emo, simply not underground Emo.

[TheRevantproduc]

@CommiEmo Green day is pop punk. Don't bother to argue, they even call themselves a pop punk band. They don't set a good image.

Why? Phony image.

Major record label, not approve by the punk underground.

Along with that, they try to make up for it by making a redicilousy post-pistol theme that they fail hard at (e.g. swearing in lyrics w/o any reason).

Any real punkhead could agree with me

[CommiEmo]

@TheRevantproduc You are right that they are pop-punk, but still punk (and awesome), things don't have to be underground to be good, I'm sick of this attitude by people. They arn't even that poppy, so I don't get why they're called pop-punk and not simply punk.

[Froggiefied]

@CommiEmo they are, it doesnt matter if the music is punk, if they show up on mtv, or if you can buy t shirts everywhere, or if you wear black make up. you are a sell out and astray of punk.

[TheRevantproduc]

@CommiEmo Never said it had to be underground. I just pointed out that green day are what they are. There's a huge difference between their newer style and punk.

out of character, fucking bullshit.

[CommiEmo]

@Froggiefied Also this certainly isn't pop, it's post-hardcore, and very emo/screamo-influenced, if not actually emo/screamo. As I said, officially they're "metalcore/emo/screamo".

[Froggiefied]

@CommiEmo alesana is just a bunch of teens influenced by teenage bands eg ''green day'' they aren't punk as fuck either. maybe mtv tells you but you are really retarded if you believe so. i'm not gonna explain you anymore.

listen to ''Jeromes Dream'' real screamo/emo. and watch the live vid of them in bakersville in the boxing ring. that should give you the idea of real screamo and punk. alesana isn't influenced by any emo band.

[HmNiTyTy]

@CommiEmo Agreed completely. But, alot of times that is the case. Unfortunatly. Not with Alesana though.

[Froggiefied]

@LionGatteMovie that's funny because i am a 13 year old dutch boy, but i know english. you dont have a clue what you talk about, emo is short for emotive hardcore punk rock. its just hardcore punk rock but slightly different, punk is underground so no alesana or any band on fearless records plays it. Private message me if you wanna talk dutch.

[TricoNitroz]

I am seeing this at 4.15 P.M. and I'm laughing. Seriously (it feels like I'm seeing Anthony from Smosh). Then again I might be scared if I watch this in the night.

[Magerlicious]

[Domindestructible]

[caseyuya]

Hehe

[txkillersnow]

You are the reason my heart beats

[DrivinHanyou]

1. This is Post-Hardcore TRUST ME!

2. Yes, they are amazing live. I saw them on their "2 Weeks of On Frail Wings of Vanity & Wax Tour" and The All Stars Tour. Both times were amazing and Shawn and Dennis are beyond nice. This is all coming from a hardcore Death Metal junkie.

[Obsessedwithhim24]

@DrivinHanyou no there not post hardcore.

gtfo 

[DrivinHanyou]

@Obsessedwithhim24 lol whatever no need to get butthurt over a comment on Youtube.

[viwowpo]

Win Just Win.

[antonuraha]

I like the same style of Shawn Milke

[looolatyoukid]

The other day was the best day of my life: I met Shawn Milke.

Fuck yes. <3

& hes even hotter in real life then he is in all Alesana videos. ;)

[bloodyreminissions]

You guys should totally check out my channel and answer the question. whats your favorite band? i wanna know i need feedback

[kellymarietorres1234]

the black guy scares me o.O

[ILauraISONFIRE]

[MegaSuper06]

[GMpangya]

[louieboy14]

[weirdgirlbff]

Okay that was straight up creepy haha

[MrMct95]

The lead screamer sounds and looks too much like Jack Black.

[wolfylick]

Edgar Allen po's poems are amazing :D

[bunnycupcake110]

this song is AwEsOmE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CommiEmo]

Saw them in Nottingham :) was truelly amazing :D. It's pronounced "alice-anna", because they're actually named after a street called alice-anna ;). Also about the people arguing over genre, well officially they're 'screamo, metalcore, and emo" so I guess you can consider them a mix of the three :P, I consider them those 3 + pure awesomeness ;).

[samuelthemovie]

@CommiEmo i think thats alesana-core. its pure awesome and all three.

[CommiEmo]

@samuelthemovie Good point actually :P

[HmNiTyTy]

@CommiEmo I not saying any of this to be a dick... But 'Emo' isn't a genre. Hell it isn't even a real culture anymore...

[CommiEmo]

@HmNiTyTy It is, it's just one that's become harder to define.

[Froggiefied]

@HmNiTyTy it is, emo music is emotive hardcore punk rock, you wont find any video on youtube over 100k views containing emo. and no such record company as fearless or epitaph makes it.

[treytoler]

@CommiEmo i believe so too

[MrParkour]

Saw them live last night, awesome gig :)

[HarmALlama]

Saw these guys 2 nights ago. THEY WERE FUCKING AWESOME!

[SuperSpartan27]
