Breath (Breaking Benjamin Acoustic Cover)

[SergantSwiftblade]

I don't know what you are playing at the begining of the song, cause it doesn't sound like breath at all

[colbath1]

great job guys loved it

[gosek20]

AMAZING!

[marksoutermusic]

This is awesome, I didn't know that BB attracted a more mature audience.

[0palescence]

That took the breath right out of me. Enough said =)

[AlmostOuttaHellview]

You know, I find myself going out of my way to listen to your guys' version of this song! Totally new spin on one of my favorites. Fucking kudos, my friends.

[liljimr]

Great take on a great song guys. I like the different arrangement, its something more people should consider when doing covers. To me, it shows more of an ability than just playing it "as is". Anyway, sounds great. Wish i could sit on a back porch somewhere with an ice chest just listening to you guys.

[ViktorPesherin]

naice.....)

Ukraine laike this)

[AngiC84]

awesome as usual :)

[The80sbandfreak]

This is very good!

[AlmostOuttaHellview]

At first I wasn't happy because it's so very different from what I'm used to.

But upon listening to it all, I think it's a refreshing version of the song.

Breaking Benjamin is my favorite band and that's why I was apprehensive, but good fuckin job guys. I mean if that is infact you guys singing. I see the guitarist sing sometimes with no sound, so idk? but i like it if it's really you

[Drafter3]

that little guitar riff at 3:23, lol wicked..

wicked job guys, sounds about what i think breaking benjamin would sound like if they made it acoustic..

and i hear a woman at 1:00.. she should have continued a bit throughout the song some more. her part sounded fantastic.

listening to this again while writing the comment.. and sounds even better 2nd time. im going to cover this cover, lol.

wicked job, again.

[Brettandjason]

Little riff ;o) That's more of a... "what do I do here?"

This was a very insightful comment.

Thanks for taking time to let us know your thoughts!!!

Too cool, my friend!!!!!!

P.S. That "woman" at 1:00 is Brett. I think his underwear got a bit too tight :o)

[Drafter3]

haha, i thought as i was writing it, i hope it's a woman and not one of these guys.. lol. underwear too tight, ha. sounded cool anyways, im sure the recording mic isn't doing the best of justice either.

my pleasure for the comment guys.. this really is one of the coolest covers ive found on youtube, hands down.

[Sayocakes]

really liked it :)

[Brettandjason]

Sweet! Thanks!!!!

[DarkCitadelGuard]

Different but impressive. Great job, I got chills for a second. :]

[Brettandjason]

Chills? That;s too cool....

Thank you sooooo much!

[cmccartney037845]

I also play an acoustic cover version of this song, great job guys!! I really liked the way you did the chorus. The verse seemed to drag a little bit, but not terribly. Vocals could be a little louder, but overall well done. Great original touch!! Awesome!!

[Brettandjason]

Appreciate the kind words and the constructive critism! Very cool!!!

Thank you!

[Dmassey22]

This is an awesome twist to the song...mad respect for taking a risk this big but i definetly liked the way you made it more then a cover!!!!

[Brettandjason]

Sorry for the delayed reply.

Thank you for checking us out, though!

Twisting it is more fun. The original is so great we would have never done it justice so,... we made our own little groove to it.

Glad you liked it!!!

[ericwnn]

I think most people are just used to the upbeat tempo of the song, and will automatically write it off as no good, assuming that good covers are covers that sound the most like the original. You guys definately deviated from the norm in this sense. I can appreciate the arrangement. I say good job! Good display of artistry and initiative!

[article15cp]

Like the different guitar, made it your own, good stuff man

[Brettandjason]

Yea... we try to switch 'em up.

Thanks for the cool comment

[valentinadrian92]

good enough for me :)

[Brettandjason]

Glad you dig it

[pauliine126]

i think you are great but singing maybe could be a bit louder. but i think it's allright ;)

[Brettandjason]

Sweet! Thanks

[fr9ud]

absolutly horrible!!!! please dont do it again pleeeeaaaassse! I'm sorry, but that's the worst cover i*ve ever heard!

but nice guitarplaying!!!! respect ;)

[Brettandjason]

Wow! No one has ever said anything good about my guitar playing :o)

Thanks for leaving a comment...

We asked for it (good or Bad!)

Means a lot to us

[wickedkmkjuggalo]

please dont not ruin another song of breaking ben im sorry but the way you guys slowed it down the way you did ruined it

[Brettandjason]

Oooopps! Sorry

[TheSjpower]

great voices, but i think in my meaning.

that you could play a little faster.

[serch993]

aww nice version guys awsome vocals

[Brettandjason]

Glad you liked it! Brett can sing... I'm lucky to play with him!

Thanks for the kind words

[UsuckAtSKatin]

Sung it too slow

[Brettandjason]

Yea... but how did we play it?

haha. Just kidding... we did that on purpose!

Thanks for stopping by

[nathantoronto77]

[Brettandjason]

Thank you... sorry it took so long to say it, though

[TheBreakingBen]

[Brettandjason]

Well... it took a minute to get back to you but, from one cracker to another... Thanks

We sowed it down on purpose but, maybe not our best idea to date :o(

[linkin1712]

Holy shit; thats some good stuff.

Awesome lyrics and playing of the guitar.

Best of luck to you guys in the future!

[Brettandjason]

Sorry for the delayed reply but... WOW!

[RhysHoneMusic1]

[FiReEyEs17]

[Brettandjason]

I personally think Brett could sing anything!

[Nat1311]

[SETxTHExFIRE]

your music choice is excellent!

well done

[Brettandjason]

Thank you very much... glad to have you checking out our videos.

[gaston998]

Exelente!!!

[FiReEyEs17]

really good....

[Brettandjason]

Thanks... glad you liked it.

[LJrascal1]

i have checked your other stuff great job especially on the orignals you guys are amazing

[LJrascal1]

your timings off but the notes are close

[6661megh7x]

this is one of my favorite songs

<3 i love this song

it's an awesome cover, if you like it slow;

i agree with inward360, and how they said that the song needs to "go go go"

other then that, it's great.

one thing that I'd probably say i didn't like ALL that much, would probably be the chorus' melody. don't get me wrong, it sounds amazing. but partly, the reason i like the chorus part is because of the way it is originally sung.

its great though (:

<3

[Brettandjason]

Your advise is helpful and appreciated.

Thanks for taking the time to leave such a cool comment

[inward360]

I think you guys do great, the only thing i have to say about it is it kinda drags.....the song wants to go,go,go and it's being pulled back. That's it. Keep it up though guys.

[Brettandjason]

Yea, it's tough to do a true rock song acoustically but, we gave it a shot. Thanks for the vote of confidence!

Really appreciate it!

[Brettandjason]

Thanks for the kind comment.

I don't know what a "sponsorship deal" is...

If it means that you would like to pay us, well then... WE'RE IN!!! hehehe.

[raikaze01]

can you try play BB Rain ?

[Brettandjason]

That'd be a tough one acoustic... but we'll try anything once!

[nwrpat12]

haha sweet

[Brettandjason]

Thanks... I think? :o)

[ianb4music]

This is great guys! I've only lately begun listening to some acoustic BB and like it!

Take care and Merry Christmas!

Ian

[Brettandjason]

Welcome back. And thank you.

A very Merry Christmas to you, too!!!

Hope you have a healthy, happy and succesfull 2009. See ya on the tube!

[darkprince2713]

haha i love how the guitar guy is getting so into the song.

[Brettandjason]

It's a good song! What was I supposed to do? Act like I was bored?

Seriously, though... Thank you for checking us out. We really appreciate you taking time to leave a comment.

Check out our other covers and originals... I also GET INTO those too :)

[squiddmeng]

Fantastic, I love the style you put into. Great job guys. Keep it up.

[Brettandjason]

Well, Thank you!

We try to put our own spin on all of our covers. Check 'em out if you have time. We'd love to know what you think about our other tunes. Got a couple originals posted, too.

Thanks again... We both appreciate the support!!!

[knutschily]

ahahah die guitarist is sooo into it .. really entertaining

[Brettandjason]

Yea... I could get a job as a bobble head :o)

Glad you liked it!

Jason

[goryempire]

Awesome...great sound and version..i expected less but was surprised to hear it was pretty good =P

[Brettandjason]

Sorry for the delay but... Thank you!!!

We really appreciate the support!

Stop back for a listen to some of our other stuff.

[ArsiekDHOL]

nice voice ,but a little slow not?

It's still good, I haven't even a cover of this song XP

[Brettandjason]

Thank you. Appreciate the comment!

[rabba54321]

I would love for you guys to play " sunshine" by jonathan edwards

[Brettandjason]

Thanks for checking this one out, too.

I'll admit... I don't know that tune or artist, but I'll check it out.

[Brettandjason]

Okay... I checked out the tune. LOVE IT!

But, I have to ask, how did you come up with that tune from our stuff? I'm sure I'd have a heck of a time playing such a great tune on the guitar... Brett would sound great singing, though! Maybe well give it a shot. I'd like to se how many hits we'd get... Nice suggestion!

[doubleplay0798]

Sounded good...like how you made it even more minor sounding than the original.

P.S.

The guy on the left looks like Mark Recchi, haha.

[Brettandjason]

Glad you liked it... we try not to COVER the tunes we do, but change them a bit to fit our style. Plus... I suck on guitar so I have to change them, hehe!!!

You're right about the look-a-like!!! I wish he had Mark's money... we'd get some real recording equipment :o)

[bigscoach]

Really good. I really liked your own version of it. Way to be abstract! I honestly didnt expect this video to be so good! Great job guys.

Could you guys do a song by three days grace? My suggestions would be: Over and over, I hate everything about you, or pain. thanks!

[Brettandjason]

One of the best comments we've recieved!!!

Thank you, very much. We're actually working on a couple originals right now, but plan to post Never Too Late, soon. Odd, but we've recieved several requests for TDG. I guess Brett kinda sounds like him? Thanks, again!!!

[theforce301]

that was real good the thing i think u need to improve on a little is you need to have a little more felling for the song otherwise its good liked it alot 5/5

[Brettandjason]

Thank you, Sir! We're glad you liked it.

Really appreciate the comment and the view.

[theforce301]

Np that was a really nice cover tho i liked

[wabemu]

very good cover! I think nobody can top the original song^^ Sometimes you´re voice sounds similar to james hetfield from metallica. But you didn´t actually sang 100% correct ;)

5 stars!

[Brettandjason]

We try to switch it up a bit to put our own spin on it... but you're right, the original is great. Thanks for the comment and stars :o)

[lilcriebaby]

..i can Understand your guys direction...i just think a lil' More harsher'Approach(emotional-wis­e) towards the track, like the leadSinger does, (just study his intensity, a lil'more)...keep it up though, not bad, guys...

...Strength & Faith...

[Brettandjason]

Thanks for taking a listen and giving your honest oppinion. Anything to make us better is greatly appreciated. Stay in touch!

[pameclarkson]

the guitar is cool...but i think is too slow but i liked it anyway xD

[Brettandjason]

Yea... we switched it up to more acoustic friendly, which slowed it down a bit. But, we're glad you liked it.

And we greatly appreciate the cool comment!!! Thank you.

[miniverson345]

disgusting, in a bad way. totally ruined the beautifullness of the song.

[Brettandjason]

thanks for your opinion bro. rock on.

[Brettandjason]

Very kind, my friend... Thank you!

We try to switch up a little to make them more acoustic friendly... Glad you liked it!

[thetrueawesomeeric]

Awesome job guys but i think you should either buy a mic, sing louder, or get closer to the cam. Otherwise awesome. And I vote for I hate evrything About you.

[Brettandjason]

Thank you. I think it's my guitar is too loud sometimes, but we're working on it!

Man!! Your request will be tough acoustically, but we'll try anything once... it may not get posted, but we'll try :)

Good music has no age limit.

But I'm glad you liked our cover.

[SmokingBirds]

good work but i think u should rock some more in the chorus

and what i posted below was the translation of franky's comment...

[Brettandjason]

Thanks for checking us out, and special thanks for the translation!!!

I agree about rocking out, but I'm not that great of a guitar player so I have a rough time just figuring out the easy way to play the songs.

I checked out your channel and I see you've fav'd Better than me from Hinder... We cover that tune too.

By the way... You look fantastic for you age(hehe) :o)

Jason

[franky0907]

Super sache! macht mehr von BB

[Brettandjason]

[xsander1080]

genial

[Brettandjason]

Most gracious!

1. warmly and pleasantly cheerful;cordial;a GENIAL disposition, a GENIAL host.

2.favorable for life, growth or comfort;pleasantly warm; comfortably mild.

3.characterized by genius.
