Alter Bridge - Open Your Eyes (Live at Kimmel)

[SWEARscott]

1000 like yuppp

[Aaron7725]

what happen to myles's voice? i love myles kennedy but he doesn't sound like this anymore

[EvilHippy38]

@Aaron7725 You're right. It's because he sings with much more of a "mixed voice" now, which is a lot easier on him. Mixed refers to a combination of head voice (falsetto) and chest voice.

[lancianos]

Outstanding Voice!

[martreb2]

myles sounds so fuckin good here, why did he feel the need to go higher recently, he sounds like crap now

[lancianos]

@martreb2 I Think that Myles "sounds like crap" nowadays it's becouse this is a slower version than the live versions... and this vocals highlight more than the live version of nowadays...

[leagiar]

@lancianos , No, the man is right. Myles is not covering his voice nowadays. He sounded great till the live amsterdam dvd (included) but now he sings high all the time and his highs are a little bit annoying. This is a hardcore fan of Myles and AB talking.

[lancianos]

@leagiar Yeah, it's true, but i think that it's not his fault, i think that sing Guns n roses's songs change his way to sing, and he stop to hear him singing and i think it's that the problem, cose he sings watch over you live in wembley and sounds awesome...

Sorry my english, i'm from Argentina

[EndIsComingLOL]

this band really kicks ass theyre so good live

[NJROTCAREA12TP]

[NJROTCAREA12TP]

[Dragonrunify]

[rbrrosebitrose]

Looks like myles is having trouble "Opening his eyes"

[sickedhero666]

[JessicaJordison]

[lucasstrickland]

[lucasstrickland]

@Zac6230 If this music sucks then why did you watch the video? fuckin troll

[URSoFired555]

@Zac6230 You're on my hitlist!

[Dreihkon]

@Zac6230 This coming from a guy who can't manage to spell "sucks" correctly.

[WeSLLeYON]

Myles vocals is very better today !

[51alldaybaby51]

@WeSLLeYON Very better?



[KhaizerReigns]

AWESOME... GOOD MUSIC... EXCELLENT VOICE AND GUITARS...

[granulosum1]

i love this

[opeth771]

This is without any doubts their best live performance ever

[JJessup2010]

@opeth771 you obviously haven't watched any live at amsterdam then

[SumoBasumatary]

MY god...............Alter bridge is so amazing.........watching this performance itself just made my day!!!!!!!!!!! Go bless you Alter bridge!!!!!!

[Crizkut]

Brian Marshall might be my favorite bass player of all time, his creativity and sense of groove are inspiring and beautiful. Thank you Alter Bridge for creating wonderful, progressive and Spiritually Enlightening music! Rock On!

[Bakeness]

anybody else think that at the beginning Myles looks like James Franco in Pineapple Express?

[OvieCanucksFan]

@Bakeness I was just thinking that!

[TheDrummerkid83]

that man...holy crap..all four of them..wow..

[daviddiggs56]

Mark Tremonti is a God..........period.

[martreb2]

one of the best live bands out there

[furbyfro]

In my opinion, the best televised performance they have yet done.

[princebillE]

@furbyfro the acoustic version of this song for vh1 or something might be better

[jomarcruz01]

Ang DUMI!!



[hicksdude93]

this has to be one of there best performances ever!

[ajaxrulzz]

Did they film more than Isolation and Eyes??

[JTheGuitarPlayer]

Fuck, I can drink another beer for this!........24 ounces of 211 steel reserve high gravity gone. was tasty

[starwarsguy34]

Myles looks like james franco in the beginning

[30secondstolive]

@starwarsguy34 lol, true!



[WOLClanProductions]

Beautiful voice no homo

[greenberryP]

i love how myles smile while singing

[jlimproj]

Holy Shit....he looks like James Franco

[filionka]

Too bad Mark didn't have the right lead tone back then. Probably just playing the Morley straight through the Rectifier. Does not sound good on the modern channel, trust me. Anyways I love Alter Bridge and Mark is my biggest inspiration! Good to see some old clips when it all started! :)

[rafaelivalle]

Myles Kennedy #1 The Best Singer

Scott Stapp #2

[ChrisConstantine07]

Motherfucking album perfect baby \m/

[oncebitten1981]

in my opinion any band with tremonti on the the axe rox

[Ruca77]

Amazing performance!



[CantLetTheAngelsDown]

Jimmy Kimmel is a sexy motherfucker.

[viniciusunited]

Alter Bridge is 10!! CREED IS 11!

[jagster1992]

seriously why aint AB more famous than they are?? They totally kick all other big mainstream bands @sses. id pick AB over nickelback or disturbed or bands like that anyday.

[ponchotorniquet]

@jagster1992 stupid fucker hahahah yeah they r a bad ass band but your comparing them to disturbed jajajaja diffrent genres u idiot

[jagster1992]

@ponchotorniquet no not really. a different genre would be pink floyd or canibal corpse or rap or country. and disturbed sucks ass in my opinion (besides stricken)

[DerWixer666]

@jagster1992 They are just to talented to be mainstream!

[betzky2012]

@jagster1992 That exactly it

there not mainstream and people think they would be heavy etc etc

I prefer them as they are now because the music is much more real, if they were famous they would be forced to cater to the pop fans eghhhk

[94Ringostarr]

@betzky2012 how would they be forced to cater to pop fans? That makes no sense...

[bikepeddlar6]

is he stoned? lol

[Andyc18]

@bikepeddlar6 He isn't stoned, it's just the way he is lol. He doesnt drink or take drugs.

[Balllergirl14]

Creed is just as good as alter birdge, cause if i wasnt for creed, alter bridge would have never exsisted. so fuck u creed haters!!!!

[6789jeyo]

tremonti not only a monster guitar player but a great back up vocals too!!!alterbridge fuckin rocks!!!

[lilcaitz]

why is he so fucking beautiful?

[Ruca77]

great sound!

[mallorybrooke82]

I've never heard a band sound more like studio than AB, and Miles Kennedy is the best rock and roll voice today! Hands down!

[joshuashadow2000]

James Franco?!

[FreakinMonkeyDude]

Myles looks so high xD

[m0tionlessskull]

damn his smile...

MUST NOT SMILE...ARG.

I just failed.

[ryleebuchanan]

I luv this band. What's the lead singers name. Great smile!

[Stagaz630]

@ryleebuchanan Myles Kennedy

[LegendKiller15v2]

@ryleebuchanan Myles Kennedy

[potmangaz]

miles looks baked lol

[terpsfball09]

myles doesnt really sing like this anymore. dont get me wrong his voice still rocks but its like more grizzly now. this sounnds more like the recorded version...but i guess im not an expert. alter bridge fuckin rocks

[nonameswoodwerk]

@terpsfball09

youre not an expert. comparing this to a full concert is stupid. a vocalist cannot carry this style of singing for 2 hours... but he can for one song. this is an incredibly difficult octave for a vocalist to sing in for extended periods of time.

[guitaro11188]

@nonameswoodwerk dude neither are you. it's a difficult octave? most of the range of this song is a regular male vocal range. I've heard many bands in concert who sing with much higher vocals do a full set with no problem, like rush (a 3 hour set with much higher vocals, not to mention the age factor), tool, avenged, soundgarden, iron maiden, just to name a few. Alter Bridge too, he sounded the same in a regular set when I saw them, even on isolation where your comment would be more appropriate.

[Dbirukalerlangit]

Creed is a great band.. but Myles make Mark, Brian & Scott Phillips "rocks" even better...

[DARTAN09]

10 creed fans

[Karolcia1993]

'I love the way I feel today' - we see, Myles;)

[TheElmatadorjulio]

Timor Leste love ALTERBRIDGE..!!!

[Kiing214]

Myles looks High ;]

[senjecko4]

@Kiing214 I agree. Either high or he looks like something really good happened to him. Or maybe someone told him a really dirty yet funny joke and he can't stop thinking about it.

[PrettyFreakinWise]

@Kiing214 Being a stoner for over a decade, I can tell you that he is DEFINATELY high. Willy Nelson had a backstage pass...

[spiritual11975]

Actually, I am a Creed fan, as well as an Alter Bridge fan as I have all of both bands stuff. I have been to both of their concerts and hope that continues. All in all, i think i like Alter Bridge slightly better, but did enjoy Creed's last album. I think Mark Tremonti (a local of my hometown) is the brains behind both bands.

[iga123s]

mark tremonti kicks ass

[MONSTA01]

thumbs up if you move your mouth in funny ways when you solo with a wah pedal

[aidyspady999]

@MONSTA01 I sometimes do it whilst listening to a wah solo... ITS INSANE

[gomerpilot]

@MONSTA01 He didnt use a wah pedal in the solo. Dont know if you knew that or not....

[MONSTA01]

@gomerpilot how can u even say that? u can clearly hear it, and see it at 3.36

[aaaaaSHKA]

So interesting to see them young.

[iga123s]

Mark Tremonti kick ass !

[iLikechevelle]

did myles take like ecstasy or smoke a ton of weed before this? He looks like he should be in Pineapple Express here lol.

[shtty17]

@iLikechevelle He's obviously ripped.

[biggd1972]

I love how people on here are so tough with there words, If this was in person not a one of you would be talking the way you do. Thank the Lord for the "internet tough people" gotta feel tough some way I guess

[biggd1972]

The true test of a band is- do they sound the same live, well Alter Bridge sounds better live. So wish they were still together, rock on Alter Bridge, rock on.

[vhenry75]

@biggd1972 dude when did they break up? what have i missed. just read a big piece in classic rock.talking about tours and shit.or are you just fuckin around/dont know wot ya on about.

[AngelGoneBad081]

@biggd1972 you really think they sound better live??well most of the time when i hear myles sing he sounds like he gargling water or something...don't get me wrong i love alter bridge but i feel like some of the songs put too much strain on his voice for him to keep singing them repeatedly such as metalingus where when he performs it its either a hit or miss

[RobHolyhead]

@biggd1972 "So wish they were still together"

Are you serious? they have only just relised a new album ABIII, just because creed have reformed dosnt meen Alter Bridge will stop, take for example Slipknot and Stone Sour, Linkin Park and Dead By Sunrise Loads of artists have 2 bands on the go nowerdays and im willing to bet AB will not split.

[mustangcobain65]

@biggd1972 they are together dumbass, they just put out a new album!

[poisooontime]

Tremonti is a guitar god. But i dunno, he has a strange look...

[shtty17]

@poisooontime Strange? like some badass mother fucker tearing it down on the six string??

[xMrWhiteDudex]

myles is either

1. happy

2. stoned and really happy about it

[601rockstar]

Freaking awesome

[smokey2124]

anybody else think Myles looks like James Franco

[JoyRockk]

@smokey2124 A lot of people thinks he looks like Kevin Bacon.

[mescaline1234]

Punteo culiao feo! cagó toda la canción!

[AkifF00]

nice solo! just love it!

[DiveBombProductions]

Am I the only who think Mark sounded British when he sang after the solo??(:

[SuperMentallyinsane]

Myles is amazing !!!!

[CosmicSPC]

melody and riffs have gone forever?

[notoriousb41]

I don't know, but it looks to me like Myles is stoned out of his fuckin mind!  LOL..

[crewcutter2030]

tremonti is a freakin machine,... Thats ALL!!!!

[xAmberxPacificx]

Miles kinda looks like Kevin Bacon lol.

[Vemutin]

@xAmberxPacificx

THANK YOU! i was wondering just now that who does he look like :D

[garrett1771]

I find it hilarious that he is singing open your eyes, but yet he can't open his eyes because he is so stoned. Awesome song though.

[ABandCreedFan83]

@garrett1771 LMFAO its so true though

[kuwpale]

@everycountryismine you probably have some flat ears or flat nose lol

[everycountryismine]

@kuwpale Now I know who makes the worst jokes :D

[SGE4LIFE96]

Why are you always arguing about other bands? It's an Alter Bridge video, so dont talk about how shitty Green Day was..... and tw Green Day is an awesome band in their own way. Green Day's awesome- Alter bridge's awesome, so why you have to argue about who's the better one?

[VentoRdrummeR]

I think mark tremonti is one of the most bad assed guitarists of our time. just great

[CKMunsta]

epic fail.

jus' kidding

[HaseoLegend784]

OMG!!! These guys sound exactly the same live! I've seen plenty of Big named bands sound like crap live, this is amazing.

[RenoDantres]

Alter Bridge > Creed, IMO

[nakzzz123]

i really love his voice.....nice......hooohooooo­o....i hope i can sing same as his voice!

[garcia1dallas]

I love Mark's background vocals. They're good enough to be noticed but im not sure they should be lead. But he is pretty good at singing. Best guitarist ever

[Andyc18]

Look at those girls on the front row wanting some Myles Kennedy lovin LOL. I'm a straight guy but I don't blame the chicks for swooning over Myles, not a bad looking bloke!

[musicmaven69]

Myles (singer) reminds me of cross between Kevin Bacon and James Franco in the Pineapple Express movie - LOL!

[Sgthavoc12]

the crowds are not good for rock bands on kimmel. have you seen when godsmack played cryin' like a bitch? their was like 20 true fans there everyone else was like woo im on tv now im watching this band blow my mind. same crowd pretty much here

[skah07]

thats why i love this band!! . . the guitar solos.. the drum beats ang the vocals.. the band without a trash ..

[bisquitcase]

2:30 gives me the ultimate chills =D

[MorganRose91]

Great Song, perfect performance!!! Man i see them live in November!!! And this Zildjian Z-Custom Crashes from Scott sounds amazing, i love it :)

[onlineguyscom]

9 creed fans watched this

[TheSagola]

@onlineguyscom creed is an awesome bad

[RabK92]

@onlineguyscom hang on a second. im a creed fan but i like alter bridge. so what your sayn you can only like one side. thats a bit short sighted.

[onlineguyscom]

@RabK92 no. what im saying is that creed fans are jealous of Mark Tremonti, Scott Phillips and Brian Marshall getting to work with Myles Kennedy, who is so much better than Scott Stapp

[RabK92]

@onlineguyscom again thats short sighted. yeah he might be the better technical but thats not what rocks really about. myles voice anoyys me sometimes. personaly i like stapps voice more. both of them are good vocaliet in there own right. but for me i like stapp more. ya know.

[bachir1992]

@onlineguyscom i'm also a Creed fan but it's not a reason to hate AB! AlterBridge ROCKS!!!

[therealCanablisS]

@onlineguyscom LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLL

[widellzor]

@onlineguyscom Creed is just as good as Alter Bridge tbh :p

[shippinuptoboston]

@onlineguyscom what do u have against creed? rockers need to unite to take down the pop shit like justin beiber and lady ga(y)ga(y). there is too much in fighting in the rock world for us to take down the real shit music. so to anyone who reads this please dont bash other rock bands, even the borderline ones like creed and hinder

[DonPechito]

@shippinuptoboston Right there with you man !! Besides, if Creed hadn't existed, neither would have Alter Bridge...they both are good rock bands, so why start petty quarrels, let's just ROCK ON !!!!!

[guesswhoisthis101]

@onlineguyscom this is so wrong. Only people like you would think Creed fans dislike Alter Bridge. I love Creed, and I'd rather love them both than having to choose one. I'm glad i'm not like you.

[Momof2girls1]

@guesswhoisthis101 I am a Creed fan as well. I honestly had never heard Alter Bridge until I saw their live in Amsterdam on TV a month ago (Geez, kills me to think what I've been missing all this time!!!) and was just blown away by Myles Kennedy's voice. Holy Crap. I swear I get goosebumps everytime I hear him sing . . . . . . . so I'm with you. I'd much rather like both Creed and Alter Bridge then have to choose only one . . . . . . .

[Revelation1992]

@onlineguyscom Hey dick, I love Creed. And I LIKED this. More like 11 Justin Beiber fans watched this.

[barros1711]

@onlineguyscom Might as well make it 10 buddy.

And I love AB btw.

Seriously, why can't someone like both bands?

Fuck off -.-

[papan1990]

@onlineguyscom fuck off. I'm a creed fan too and I liked and watched this video. Stop making your own stories noob.

[sujing0804]

is this a gospel song?

[spikeman23]

@sujing0804 No!!

[sujing0804]

@spikeman23  but the audience was acting like in the gospel concert,they raised their hands ,make me juz feel like it was

[spikeman23]

@sujing0804 Well it wasn't. People do that all the time.

[silverspirit01]

OMG thats fu**ing awesome, im gonna see them live in november, cant wait :D

[mgvortex66]

Jesus christ that is an amazing performance. Almost pitch perfect.

[sum1youshouldno]

Is that Myles Kennedy or James Franco?

[Monster4rmda559]

@sum1youshouldno Kennedy

[sum1youshouldno]

@Monster4rmda559 I know, I was going for a horrible but observant joke.

[NewYorkMinuteRock]

myles does look pretty wasted, which does explain why there are a few flats in there, but still sounds shit hot. really looking forward to seeing these later in the year.

[orangpasir]

damn...

[kaosnation101]

2:28-3:41, I though that he would be a little off, OMG he pulled that off so insain!!!! Very well done!!!!!

[JakeAyano]

The CD Version is very similar to their live performance. that would make them a true band!

[everycountryismine]

a lot of flats. too bad, i was a fan.

[TheChiFlows]

@everycountryismine -- The only thing thats flat is probably your ASS!. Fantastic song .AND A GREAT LIVE VERSION .Most bands sound nothing like the recordings and they came dam close .

[mosa182]

@everycountryismine your a prick, i can just imagime wot type of person u are . stuck up your own ass talkin shit on youtube . i bet your a fat twat with no music skills at all .people like u should fuk off and die with a finger up your own ass

[everycountryismine]

@mosa182 -- I wasnt badmouthing the band. I was merely remarking upon their performance on technical grounds. By the way, I'm thin. No music skills? That's for you to believe. So this is what a die hard fan is like -- unable to hear the shortcomings of their idols. LOL

[mosa182]

@everycountryismine not a die hard fan at all , in fact just found the band , cant stand shit talkers .all the good comments and all the good things u could say about the band 1 prick (ur self) has point out the bad . its ur attitude that is wank not your ear for good music

[everycountryismine]

@mosa182 hey, Mr. Failed Mindreader, u just want argument. i aint givin u one. cause arguments dont stop. no matter what you say or believe in, the vocalist just goes flat on the low keys of their own song. no one can do nothin bout that. LOL

[lfakd]

Simplesmente D. mais!!!

[djj4y]

you dont get better than that, ALTER BRIDGE are proper class, cant wait to see them again in october

[Grck7]

Alter Bridge is the best, Tremonti is my idol.

I want to learn English to understand the lyrics :(

Who taught me? xD

[ilovecookiebear]

just so much talent my brain hurts

[quats69]

it looks like he's having trouble with "Opening his eyes"

[Torste0908]

@quats69 try standing on a stage facing down its like the entire crowd are trying to fuck your eyes with flashlights.
