Emily Haines & The Soft Skeleton - Crowd surf off a cliff

[vitorfior]

Thanks!

[conspiracyteory]

Meu tema não-oficial favorito para Berserker.

Bem que poderia fazer parte da trilha do filme que sairá em janeiro de 2012.

[sorrysnail2]

4 people are dickheads.

[Aloneismyname]

my favourite song:|

[deik2000]

Tx Hookie Blue...

[28thLife]

It seems like this is about a long-distance relationship.

I've just discovered this today (and her) and I love this...I've been listening to this nonstop.

[ChicoGrogui]

Fuck! I listen Metal, but Emily Haines has conquered me !

[cliptheflower]

woa....she looks like me O.o and we sing somewhat similar, my voice is higher

[moman007]

@cliptheflower wanna get married? :P

[xNoobFromHell]

When did she leave Destiny's Child? She is not better than Beyonce but she is cool.

[Sykoze]

@xNoobFromHell Uh. Emily Haines was never a member of Destiny's Child.

[SHARPIEFY]

Cursed with a love you can't express, not for a fuck, or a kiss.

[chesterisscreaming]

waving flag brought me here

[dragoonmann]

Rather give it away

[creasicle]

"If you find me, hide me. I don't know where I've been". This song really speaks to me.

[lizardstatus]

Absolutely a beautiful song... I really like Emily's softer side

[Helptheherd]

what a wonderful voice she has :)

[kenny888stsk]

this is the first time I'v heard this song (iv been a huge fan of metric but only dabbled in Emily's solo stuff)

i don't think I'v ever cried from a song like this before.

[slaynarae]

just makes complete sense. 

[AshleyxScreamx]

Could I get the download link to this song??

:)

[AndreasT2610]

@AshleyxScreamx try youtube to mp3 converter ;)

[AshleyxScreamx]

@AndreasT2610 I have looked on youtube, and nothing.

Whatt is mp3 converter? o.O

[thebrowniesaur22]

i love her skeleton, i hate metric :)

[williamjamesbrown]

@thebrowniesaur22 how can you possibly hate Metric ???

[thebrowniesaur22]

@williamjamesbrown skeletons music is something that penetrates a bit more into your mind...its more subtle, soft and graceful...metrics...meh its too fast and blind...but its a personal opinion, i like the softer side...not my fault if you favor the other.

[williamjamesbrown]

@thebrowniesaur22 ..... the question was probably meant rhetorically, posted when I was mullered or something. I see your point, Metric I liked instantly, Skeleton stuff was a couple of listens. I see your point about the softer side though.

[thebrowniesaur22]

@williamjamesbrown :DD

[Jynxedgrl]

Emily Haines = Heaven

[MomoTheEmoPeach]

I've never cried so much to a song in my life.

FUCK. My throat and eyes, man.

I just want to kiss Emily for breaking my heart so thoroughly the way she does.

[pointsettia7]

Almost too beautiful to listen to. Emily Haines has the voice of an angel.

[ValentineKills]

Thank you for uploading this song. I'm trying to decide whether or not I like her music enough to buy. Do you have Nothing and Nowhere?

[shukaku]

@ValentineKills This is really old stuff man, if you search now she is and goes by Metric with a bunch of others in a band and they make even better music!!! The newer music isn't meant to be as sad though why why she changed.

[cosmictruffle]

I feel like this song needs to be listened to on a cold, lonely winter night.

[EscapeTheFateLuv4Evr]

@cosmictruffle it has been :)

[Oanna1990]

this song it`s amazing....

[rodness451]

This is life, love, spirit, longing, desire, sorrow diging thru the bonds of flesh. This is felt, not heard. utterly sublime

[burnfrais]

AWESOME

[foreverxillxlovexyou]

beautiful <33

[MEOWoctopus]

I can listen to Emily Haines' voice on repeat for hours. Her voice lures you into a trance. I've loved her in Metric since 2004, but her Soft Skeleton work is phenomenal.

[TheNinjaJeremy]

Wow, I listen to this song EVERYDAY

[ayansb]

Would love to hear Emily Haines do a duet with Cat Power one day.

[helemundo]

@ayansb that would be fucking AWESOME.

[ZomaBelle]

@ayansb

that would be heaven in a song.

[axelgrinder11]

@ayansb that would be a very sweet combo, there so similar it would hit you twice same song

[TheSweetBunniie]

3 idiots

[aguywitahat]

i dont know what i would do without emily's music

[kobockle]

Her music is beauty.

Nothing else. Her lyrics are brilliant. Her voice is mesmerizing. And her piano playing is heavenly.

Emily Haines makes my heart sink into botomless pits. She is outstanding.

*siiggghhhh*

[309633246]

Such a lovely song, thanks for posting!

[thatCanadiangrrrl]

.............."IF you find me, hide me, I don't know where I've been"!

.....true that sad to say, at least the last few years where many of my close family clan have passed and with 'that' brings just mere existance and trial & many errors while negotiating THIS big bad and getting worse world.

....so 'if' you have found and LIVE ''pure' LOVE...appreciate it--nuture it--capture it because it can be and 'will' be taken from you when least expect it.

[biancasp]

Emily is fucking brilliant. Her voice gives me chills head to toe. Music isn't really music unless it makes you feel like you're living. This makes me feel so alive.

[ieatcatlitter]

this song, just, wow. i thought "Mad World" from Donnie Darko put me in a place.. this is the same.

[uchihanariko]

@ieatcatlitter Yah I know, but the version from Donnie Darko is completely different from the actual recording, waaay better. More emotion. But this song, beautiful, same with Our Hell from Emily Haines.

[floozywoozle]

rather give the world away then wake up lonely

[floozywoozle]

@floozywoozle now like 22 000

[floozywoozle]

ive probly accounted for 1000 of these views

[Mimihopps3]

This song lures to me into a somber feeling in a refreshing way rather than as a downer. Quite brilliant how one, like Emily, is capable of doing that with lyrics.

[tylerscribble]

This song is so very deep, it sinks into you as you listen.

[foreverlawnoc]

49m just stumbled across her and metric and Im in love

[MissMaude89]

vraiment tres belle chanson !

[xBuniieNbubbLesx]

Crowd surf off a cliff Land out on the ice

Crowd surf off to sea Float towards the beach XO

[free4fun13]

If you find me,hide me ....

[picayune21]

What a beautiful song.

[katelynoneil]

so gorgeous.

[Tatyhlymah]

her lyrics are so deep... she's a true poet...

[Glaceo]

Absolutely inspiring, and so beautifully made.

[kemikalrxn]

I think I listen to this song every day and it always ALWAYS makes me weep. Its so damn perfect.

I love Metric to pieces, the entire BSS collective are the band of my dreams, but Emily's solo stuff is killing my heart.

[rinajoyification]

this was a side project and a very different sound then the band she's in, Metric. its electronic type and while the lyrics can be honest and in your face, the beats are quite the opposite of this song and her own stuff.

[hainzy1812]

ive just come across this...as my surnames haines and i thought i would type it in to youtube...wish i did'nt now as that shit has depressed me and makes me want to shoot each single letter in my surname starting from h..and ending in.. s...ps lovely voice but upbeat it and share some love and not doooooom and glooooom :)

[wanabepunkrocker]

Ones musical depression, is another mans uplifting source. Emily is an amazing song writer and this is her solo project, which is very raw and stripped down. Check out her band METRIC...such an awesome current band.

[KissOfTheRazorblade]

@hainzy1812 /Facepalm.

[raccoonlord]

Apparenty we'd rather cry.

Middle muddled mudhole.

[hkpeople2009]

this song almost makes me cry..it's a amazing song and emily's voice's very beatiful.

[J0Nramirez]

She has captured my heart through her music. Emily is amazing.

ⒹⓇⒺⒶⓂ ⓄⓃ,

Jon R

[LadyGwenavire]

she seems to weave my thoughts into her songs, its wonderful~~ i hope emily knows how much her fans appreciate her ^^

[protogurl]

Rather give the world away than wake up lonely...

[luxatearna1]

great song

[maxymus60]

ı love this song

[kmacmuzikmafia27]

Okay, pretty much all the comments multiplied by a million. Music is my God and this is his best incarnation, so many emotions trapped into it, loneliness and utter desperation, a world of depth, and I love everything she's done. There that covered it haha.

But I can't even believe this is the same singer as Metric, that's awesome.

[tiff4annie]

amazing song

[opsimathkaroshi]

Emily Haines is amazing.I haven't ever before heard of a musician of whom I have loved everything they have done.Always killer,never filler.Cheers EH.

[helemundo]

I love Emily Haines,

she's just a world of depth and I love getting lost in it.

[EvatheDiva00]

it has so many emotions trapped into it. i can totally relate tto her feelings of loneliness and utter desperation.

wonderful

[theslexer]

i love emily haines. <3

[ArtDog92]

The only song I had listened to that made me cry was wings for marie by tool. This song got me incredibly close to that point. This album has quite the amazing feel.

[CensoredPunkClown]

That shows, that we are all human beings! :-)

Great song!!!

[wreckingkat]

i'm a 6 foot 6 heterosexual construction worker with a mohawk and full arm/chest/neck tattoos. by most people's definition a total man's man.

this song has made me cry on several occasions. it''s beautiful.

[mattfca]

im a red blooded male, i mostly listen to death and black metal, but i absolutely love everything with her voice and lyrics *_*

[peel432]

@wreckingkat

Funny, the definition of "man's man."

If a person is afraid of other people seeing him do something that he feels like doing, that's hardly being a man.

So why is crying not a "man's man" thing to do?

If being comfortable with who I really am is not manly, I'll take my chances.

Sorry for taking this out here. I don't mean to criticize your use of the term, as I understand you are just using it as a comparison. No offence.

Btw this song gets to me in ways nothing else can. Amazing.

[dumena]

dumena@peel432 I think there's no need for you to worry. As I understand it, both wreckingkat and you don't share "most people's definition" of what makes a man. And if you count Henry Rollins, there's already three of you out there. All the best, d

And thanks a lot for posting this amazing song!

[hytsao]

@dumena

You're right. I'm not worrying.

I have no idea the point you're trying to get across, though. All I'm saying is that we shouldn't define a person by what others are.

If you want to get muscles the size of whales and pierce your body everywhere you can, that's fine by me. But don't condescendingly compare that to people who are comfortable with who they are without all the gimmicks.

Just out of curiosity, if both me and wreckingkat are wrong, what is "most people's definiton"?

[dumena]

@hytsao_ or peel 432 Hi again. There's been a misunderstanding: I think both you and wrecking cat are right. I just thougt you're worrying too much, I think a fair share of the public is quite tolerant and open minded. I actually don't think "most people's definition" of manhood is quite as simple and stereotype. Nevermind. Kindest regards, D

[diceman106]

@peel432

drama queen

[BiggCox]

@wreckingkat sure buddy yyou;re a pussy

hahahaa jk man its a moving song, not exact;y my type o thing but i dig it. it comes from the heart. thats music. music comes from the heart

[allmostuffie]

@wreckingkat MORE POWER TO YOU!!!!!

[owenissalty]

@wreckingkat this is probably one of the greatest comments ever :)

[Fndr00]

@wreckingkat can i have your email? lmao

[synthtrance]

@wreckingkat

just goes to show don't judge a book by it's cover ;)

I kid, great song regardless

[ghita2ion]

@wreckingkat so you have to be a clichee to like this song?

[FailarielArFeiniel]

@wreckingkat why do ppl think only "gay men" cry?? ^^...crying is something so simple, just like smiling ^^ it happens in several occasions, and we totally need it (:...And well...this is one of the best songs ever made by this woman ^^ (:

[hotcatmax123]

@wreckingkat ooooooo a man's man are we now ;P

[luisazavich]

@wreckingkat i love this comment. this made me smile. you are beautiful for your honesty... and good taste.

[MaxC17]

@wreckingkat i love it

[foggyrf9]

@wreckingkat "by most people's definition a total...closet Viallge People clone"

[shukaku]

@wreckingkat with the mohawk your not really a mans man lol.

[anothergunner]

that's hilarious..



[silverinthenight]

This is my everything song. I was empty before I found it.

[pfassett]

Just an amazing song, everything is perfect, and her voice is haunting, almost ethereal.

[kokoroire]

makes me want to cry every time, which i think is beautiful.

[morsebulb]

its like they made my lonliness into a song.

[Oddishness]

god that's exactly how i feel about this song too. <3

[finalfantasy8VIII]

wow this song is very sad but so beautiful .. she has such a amazing voice

[Cora452]

BEST SONG!!!! I've never really had an all time fav song b4 but I do now ^^ Thanks Emily... ♥

[SuicideBoy555]

Gosh, This song sends me on a mindtrip of Life. She is amazing.

-Jon R.

[justanoli]

This song is so depressing it makes me want to kill myself. But it's beautiful.

[Cora452]

I kno what u mean man... but it's like a soul put to sound! A sad one! I love it! Listened to it all day wen my friend said he was dying... helps to have depressing songs some times.

[UnholyPanda13]

This song is so fucking good.

[rmffb10]

shes amazing!=)

[pjoakimm]

What a song :)

[willveda]

Emily is the modern-day Joni. She is so amazing.

[SetYourself0nFire]

sosososososoooo good. emily haines is fucking amazing at everything. this song is so meaningful

[willveda]

I'm guessing you're a Stars fan, from your screen name - Stars are also how I discovered Emily and Metric. They have become my two favorite bands!

[emilylilianacullen]

I think by far, Star and Emily Haines have the BEST lyrics on this planet!

[182carl]

kptrk6,

That is awesome. I get the same inspiration when I hear this. Dr Blind, too.

[catholicboy100]

This song gets me every time..

[nikodemaz38]

I love the piano line..well the whole thing ....

[shawkstuh]

Congratulations :) That's awesome!

[ZacIsBr00tal]

why is the video frozen? is youtub frozen?

good song.

[SenseOfSecurity]

LOL It's not a video...

It's a photo LOL. Dumb.

[ZacIsBr00tal]

lol,

i don't even remember commenting on this video,

I'm pretty sure a comment on this was just my friend dicking around on my youtube account.

[SenseOfSecurity]

I thought you were just completely retarded. :X

[ZacIsBr00tal]

no lol,

the comment is deleted for some reason.

I usually leave intellectual comments, and i hardly ever have a reason to leave a hateful comment.

Plus i had never watched this video before :P

[JackWhiteIsKing]

Damn, this is such a good song.

[locuseye99]

Quality!!

[SylviaVictoriaLucas]

love it

[WarholChild17]

Most beautiful song ever.
