FreddeGredde - Beside Me (original song)

[TheHardrocker00]

ive loved this song from even before the album came out. im a proud subscriber. freddegredde ur an amazing musician i love ur style keep doing wat ur doing

[MrJackstar123]

how does this not have a couple more million views?

[Tessitura92]

I adore this song, wish there was more, as I have grown tired of listening to just this one 1000 times, unfortunately. ;(

[Revolution5Records]

This is my favorite song of your own! how many instruments you can play?

[Twistofnature]

Dude seriously what's going on why don't you play the drums you've bewildered me :P j/k it's awesome as usual.

[hyperwires]

I really don't know how it got there, but this song has been on my computer and has been played from time to time when I turn on my shuffle, and I've always loved it. I decided to look it up tonight. I just wanted to say that I really love your work. :)

[42dcox]

Wonderful piece just like all the others. Drums were a bit loud in comparison to the other instruments, but that's something that's easily taken care of.

Great work, dude.

[SiunZoxdi]

The lyrics go pefectly with the quitar, love it

[alexpar69]

Beginning of  Magnet - Nothing hurts now )))

[lcart14]

This is really awesome, I wasn't really into to prog rock before a few weeks ago but now I see why its popular, great job.

[worrmiesroo]

I love this song, but hate the random rock part (thats just me) too bad writing a version without the rock part is stealing :( i still love this song tho.

[69guitarchick]

@worrmiesroo its prog rock, which is generally a required taste :) also, how would it be stealing if he performed a version without the rock parts?

[worrmiesroo]

@69guitarchick copyright infringement or some shit like that

[69guitarchick]

@worrmiesroo but its his song so copyright doesnt apply here.

[Qdude88]

@69guitarchick it would be stealing if you claim to have written it, however if you are just performing it then it can be considered as a cover. And i dont think Freddie will really care if you cover it.

[69guitarchick]

@Qdude88 oh i thought he meant Fredde should do a version without rock, not he wants to do a cover without the rock parts. My bad :)

[TheRowlhion]

I love your music, is like a fusion of modal and tonal music that you are making right? Sounds pretty good. With Complex Rhythmical Structures and Lots of variation of Chords O:

I'm fan of yours.

[mashafasha5]

Someone put this on rockband 3

[zebestbh]

Is it on 6/8 ?

[SownJeeves]

@zebestbh its really fast if you count it like that. you can count it 4/4 its a little. I dunno i think he did a polyrhytm.

[shippo135790ableable]

I'm mind blown you are by far one of my fav artists and I stumbled upon you completely by accident

[BarbaricaShments]

wow everytime i listen to this song i melt!!!! you are amazing.. it has it's own unique sound but i can relate alot of riffs to dream theater.. not a bad thing at all ;)

[ikmujn780]

Whoa this sounds kind of like a Poets by the Fall Song

[emikueatchuu]

First time I've heard by him, but its awesome (:

[NeoShaiSin]

Whenever I listen to this song, I feel like I'm in a fantasy world.

[TheOscarSound]

2 years, and still one of the best!!!

[DokruoChanSarah]

I think I'm in love <3

[Sniperpanda656]

I remeber listening to this when it had less than 100,00 views. and i still come back every so often becuase it is mesmerizing

[Desm0ndDin0va]

holy cactus!, this is fuckin' awesome...

[u414tsan]

i havent listened to all ur songs but this is definitely my favourite. although i have to admit i don't think ur vocals suit ur style very well.

anyway ur sound reminds me of exivious, idk if ur familiar with them you should give them a listen, i'll leave a link for you to check out

/watch?v=-Mf2dSpYKNw

[zXeX0dusXz]

You know... I think you should release this original recording as a demo version.

[zXeX0dusXz]

The album was great, but like another person commented, Louis Abramson's drum track provided a different feel which was a bit more comfortable IMO. It's a shame you didn't keep it.

[vaduzcrew]

It's amazing how you did most of the instruments and also vocals! Love it so much. Everything is just superb! Do you compose this song on your own?

[plorpus59]

u r deffinitly my fav musician on the internet

[JandVshow]

why did u erase 32 songs in 8minutes video?:(

[Landigio]

@JandVshow youtube made him take it down :(

[felixvc]

The arrangement was really killer, but I feel like the vocals kind of let the song down

I don't know, you can obviously sing very well, but the vocals just seemed a bit lazy here.

[blaksephirot]

hey man what techniques do you use for recording on your videos you could really help me out C:

[Stratocaster007]

wow very very good. keep on man, hope you'll have a lot of luck with music

[3dayzofpeace]

Hey Fredde,

I bought the album and I think it's amazing.

The only thing is though, I like Louis Abramson's drumtrack for this song more than the other guys. Why didn't you use his?

[Lasergurka]

Herrejävlar, du har ju släppt ditt album! :D Aaaawesome, du ska in på min iPod!

[GamerPangze]

I bought your CD on iTunes, and it was AMAZING! Keep up the good work, Freddie!

[ReinhardtvanHeerden]

This sounds like 8 songs in one, maybe even more.. Amazing.

[backrowsinger]

When he sings, it looks like he's keeping a secret.

[M4rc3l0DW]

This could be an original YES song, no doubt... such quality ... it reminds me 90125, from the good old days of Trevor Rabin...

Have you heard of Arjen Anthonty Lucassen, and his projects, Ayreon, Star One? I absolutelly love "The Company of Franz B Coq" , "My house on Mars" songs....

[guitarrx3girl]

Did what you suggested and will continue to do... meaning give this time to grow on me......the style of this sort of reminds me of Yes..... which I have been spoon fed since a baby! Sort of gave me a Close To The Edge kinda feel... ok.. I'm probably confusing the heck outta you.... LOL... so... this is definitely the type of video I need to watch a few times to "take it all in"....really complex &.. GREAT job. ♥ Emily

[Freddie25]

@guitarrx3girl Definitely not confusing, I love Yes and Close to the Edge. :) Not sure I hear any resemblance though. :P Thanks anyhow!

[guitarrx3girl]

@Freddie25 It just gave me that whole feel... syncopated yet not... gives me the same :"feel" as close to the edge... ok.. that probably makes no sense...ok wait.. starting at 1:34.....there is a definite complex yes feel...... i guess that's just my take... shrug... it's REALLY REALLY good... i like all the layers. Em

[gorramshiiny]

@Freddie25 I felt like I heard a little bit of Yes-like influence around/after the solo at 2:20-2:37 Or maybe just prog in general, which you certainly like :)

[DariaRock1]

@Freddie25 I think the poster meant a prog influence in general which I also hear clearly :) - interesting to know if FreddeGedde likes Prog

[chikadee123123]

This is my favorite song by him :))

[tobbex7]

pretty goddamm awesome!

[JulienDurden]

is it just me or he looks like Asthon Kutcher?

[DenessaRose]

marry me =)

[TheWillBoyce]

Travis Richter left The Human Abstract. I think that you should take his place. :)

[zXeX0dusXz]

This is your best song, IMO.

[3dayzofpeace]

The drums are all over the place in this song and it really adds to the whole "I'm a better musician than you" aspect of your life, Fredde.

[kruemeltobi]

you're so multi-talented! really good! I like it very much!

[AMoosemintandlament]

Sjukt bra, bättre än många symfonirocklåtar jag hört med de mer kända banden i genren. Fast nästan för varierat för att kallas symfonirock eller progressivt eller att tillhöra någon enskild genre. Härlig variation utan att vara alltför konstigt - tycker jag i alla fall, gillar ombytliga låtar som det händer saker i - och det är assnyggt spelat. Du skulle kunna komma långt med musikkarriären om du bara får uppmärksamheten och reklamen som krävs för att många nog ska veta att du finns & vad du gör

[LoganStickly22]

Is this gonna be on 13/8? If so, I'm so excited for that release! Well, I'm ALREADY excited XD

[sherreamethyst74]

did anyone else play with the lyrics, like move them around the screen?? or just me??

[5151Rockstar]

how come this isn't on your website for download? it's awesome

[TheJobbbbbbb]

how will you play live? you'll play all your instruments at the same time? hahaXD

[Barlecilla]

Fuckin genius.

What else can I say!

[TheRowlhion]

my goood i loveee this, this style is very nicee like progresive i dunno i love it.

[TheWillBoyce]

Really good but I think that the vocals would be better if you made a separate track just for them. Honestly, you sing very well, but it's harder when you're concentrating on something else.

[njkellykid]

I agree with you on the unconventional music subject. Theres something about music that stands out from the crowd, especially since one of the main things I like in music is something that can move me, and I definitely think a bit unconventionally lol... I have to say, I'm a huge fan of your acoustic work, so I love how this piece really combines it well with a more modern element, yet it still manages to compliment the accoustic work in its own right. Very well done, I hope we see more like it.

[MetallicSlayerDeath]

Fan vad jag älskar dig... Som artist såklat :)

[manu12el]

just a question, the sings in you new album are like this one?, if it so i will buy it

[manu12el]

@manu12el songs*

[bmansmanblink182]

I know u know Travis barker. I seen the pic it background

[mjukiscarry]

I am so happy I love when you sing and play <3

[XnoahconstrictorX]

Accordion Solo, YES!

[tippy400]

This is amazing and the acordien blew my mind, but am I the only one that's reminded of Dream Theater when they listen to this? :P

[keraofrohaniscool]

accordian!



[manu12el]

this alternative progressive, is just epic, genius, and the lirycs are deep

[Sk8rAsRooX]

Absoluote perfection :o

[jockstrapbill7]

This is amazing...

[thetreman]

This is an awesome song. Would love to hear some of the solos on guitar though

[JoshuaWenham]

well composed, has an alternative/progressive metal feel to it.

[DaisyEpicness]

wow, your so talented!! amazing voice, great song, amazing voice…

[MusicbyMitar]

COMMERCIALS ARE RUINING THE WORLDDDDD D:

[arcopizzicato]

wow at the solos! i wish i had an accordion

[CryoTheColdMuffin]

Don't worry about people not liking this style. Tons of people like it. Although if you're next album has half this style and half more conventional stuff, you may split your fanbase

[ZeppelinFan122]

Someone was complaining about Fredde's lyrics on his latest video. Um, how about listening to these lyrics? It's like he said, that ballad is meant to be simpler. This is where it's at.

[GuyInLove7]

I remember the first time I heard this, which was last summer so one year ago. I had the tingling feeling of "This is so immensely good I don't know what to do with myself." I've never heard music like this before. It's exactly the kinda sound I'd love to have. I read on your blog that this was your first fully composed song. Well God, if YOU can do it, I can too, right?? Needless to say I bought this on iTunes, will buy your album, and will promote it!

Thanks for a year of inspiration.<3

[garrysman]

My brain just vibrated.

[vacantbass]

dude. you are so bro i have to invent a new word for it.

brommense

[sund43m0rn1ng]

i like it

you are very talented

keep on going!

[wynkoman]

amazingly progressive, keep on this stuff dude, you are so talented =)

[limonenlight]

wow.. I'm really impressed.. I liked your "32 songs in 8 minutes" video, but I like this better :)

[Sproeikoei]

You really play Bass like a guitarplayer ^^ Not that that's a surprise but still. Had to mention it.

[carbon1094]

damn. this song is great. the only thing that i think could be changed, is the drums. take it easy on them. you have a great drummer, but he goes a bit crazy lol.

otherwise, keep rocking!

[maybejustmaybe123]

Dude I love you. Daniel Gildenlow?? he's my favorite prog rock singer ever. I'm so glad you're influenced by the right people. Your album is gonna be ridiculously amazing. SO pumped.

[Sproeikoei]

@maybejustmaybe123

DUDE, he is my favorite singer ever! Like your opinion :P

[StopEatingMyCookies]

This reaaally reminds me of Dream theater, to be honest.. And that's a good thing ;)

[yondaime500]

@StopEatingMyCookies If you go to his channel, he lists John Petrucci as one of his influences. He likes DT too :)

[koally78]

<3 enough said

[Pianist203]

This song is EPIC!!!

[cjliley]

Fantastic that is all, fantastic

[Chelko88]

What? he doesn't play drums??? What a pity, he would be a complete artist, haha. Really, you blew my mind away. This song is amazing! Since Dream Theatre came out that I don't hear this nice variations

[sexybutter23]

I enjoyed and I like the red sofa theme in all your videos.

[dicenine]

with the thousands of instruments you can play im suprised drums isnt one of them btw when u get famous how are you going to tour? better start growing some extra arms lol.

[x0MoMusica0x]

Wow... I am blown away

[JSinuYasha]

I really like this. truly gifted. =)

[xMutske]

How many sort of instruments can you play O_O

[InnocentGunBand]

Great song!

[metalgolem777]

So.. I pretty much love you :D

[Gx826]

I can't believe you are still answering the comments from old videos like this, I literally love this song, i even learnt the tabs that you shared (Thanks!),

You are such a nice and talented artist :D

Im your Fan, and im proud of it

keep doing great things!

i hope you read this comment hehe

Saludos desde Colombia! :D

(ill get the song from itunes as soon as i get my ipod (: (two weeks) )

[jaredmartingordon]

Grabbed this, Vampire Bride, and Killer Queen from you on iTunes a few weeks back. Definitely not regretting this purchase.

[Garchompism]

Oh wow im really impressed with awesome job with your song! and im only halfway lol

[266thebeast]

i love ur songs

[fhornredmuse]

This is...I'm impressed. VERY impressed. Yeah, it's unconventional, but it's so much fun to listen to, and I love the use of the accordion. :-)

[traumtheater07]

@robertjm194 I only see traces of dream theater here. This is much more. It's much fresher, less metal, more full of ideas and unusual instruments than DT was in the last decade. Progressive pop mixed with folk and heavy guitars/drums and more. Fredde is just awesome.

[CMiller1334]

I blast this in my car all the time haha Great work, man. I'm really excited for your album.

[BassPlayinShizDizzle]

what genre would you call this? Pop Prog?

[TheIdiotDisease]

Tool?

[Ralentity]

Twelve freaks don't love awesomeness!

[MyManThong]

Shit. Dude has talent. FYI, for everybody wondering, I talked to this guy on Omegle for like an hour, he speaks 8 languages, he models, he plays basketball, tennis, and lacrosse, and draws amazingly. BUT HE CAN'T DO MATH. ... more talent then I have. And no, I'm not shitting around. haha. He was fucking chill.

[Freddie25]

@MyManThong I don't even know what Omegle is. :) So no, that wasn't me. You have been fooled!

[MyManThong]

@Freddie25 I deleted my comment. I'm sorry, I didn't know brah. Either way, great talent. haha.

[MataDarrell]

@Freddie25 He is Trolled not fooled lol :D

[cybermaniac17]

@Freddie25 or is trying to make us jealous. -nod nod- :P still, he has a point, you have talent. and a really good one, at that. ^_^

[nillachan1]

@MyManThong he only speaks three languages, too xD

[danraich]

@MyManThong Looks like your man thong is too tight its cutting circulation and your seeing things.

[YEMbyphish]

@MyManThong Alright, I am 100% heterosexual and this man is sexy.

[uzumaki335383]

@MyManThong jajajajajajajajaja

[blakdaimond]

My Favorite Part Is At 1:33 ! :)

[skeleitor123]

[TheJobbbbbbb]

I know you have tabs for this but do you have the sheet music for this? :D if you have we'd appreciate it if you'd post it in your website :D

[hottie471]

The first time I heard this I was like "Eh, Could do better." Now that I'm actually LISTENING I'm like "OH MY GOD BEST SONG EVER!"

[robertjm194]

i can sense the dream theater influence

[pellky54]

really impressive ... we chose your video to go into the rotation over the July 4th weekend on SongDoor TV - you can see it at songdoor.com

[zacstar1]

111 aren't beside me

[sykoxpimp19]

@Zonker28 I second that, hard to find talent like this nowadays...

[vampicbyter]

*facepalm* and i thought i was a good singer

[meeko94]

it pisses me off how good u are... I QUIT!!

haha

[Zonker28]

This is pure musical genius. I've been listening to the song and watching the video repetitively for the past few days. I've haven't heard such original, complex, and artistic song-writing in years. The time signature, key, and tempo changes, just incredible. Not to mention the lyrics. The drum work just blew me away, as well (kudos to the drummer). I can't say enough about this video / song. Singer, song writer, and musician; you are the complete package, and a truly amazing talent.

[Derekmanster]

Cool song...very talented

Baby Cow

[guitarmansam123]

Holy shit, that is so fucking AMAZING!!!!

[robertodibob]

Ainda tem gente idiota que não gosta...legalzinho!

[DocturKreation]

The drummer looks like he's pooping.

[BeAsTm0aD]

you should learn the left side of the accordion. Can make some really sick sounds!

[EeJoKi]

I will absolutely support...

[CreamerMusic]

If this was a real band....I'd follow them around on tour like a groupie just because they'd be SO awesome.

[ncreson]

how did u put all of this together so seemlesly. im wanting to do something like this. so any tips would be very much appreciated

[PeTyZoOsSs]

an accordion solo on a prog. rock/metal? JIZZ IN MAH PANTS

[heliczer]

This is great. In fact all of your videos are. Killer Queen is also fantastic, but its very cool hearing your own composition. You are lucky to have found such an excellent drummer too! If you don't know of them already, I strongly suggest you check out Project RnL on YouTube, (listen to Wake first) they are also amazingly talented muscicians/songwriters/produce­rs.

[reaper2ooX]

preety progressive actually, i heard some dream theater in there

[wizzkid250]

AMAZING!!



[LydiaKid95]

Absolutely fantastic!

[CamelWein]

You should turn the volume of the drum track down. I couldn't hear the acoustic or bass guitar after it started.

[cooltv4]

@CamelWein kinda like in actuality lol...

[HernanVasquezEXP]

??? this guys are of the Jolly band! I hear Forty Six Minutes, Twelve Seconds of Music. good album.

[MyClem48]

WAUW AWESOME

[ojoadicto]

You are very talented and amazing!!!! hello from Venezuela

[ojoadicto]

You are amazing!!!!!!

[Apolyion]

Beautiful brother. Has a Dream Theater feel and early Genesis vibe. Mythical, synchopated and beautiful.

[Willificationify]

I wanna hear an instrumental of this.

[EatYourVegs]

This is great music! I'm very impressed :) I followed you for your nice cover but this is really brilliant.

[triforceisthetruth]

they only problem is the ads :D

[CreepyFlavor]

I really like your stuff :), but I think you need to get a better lyricist. Anyways, keep it up :)

[depilator69]

Am I hearing some Jethro Tull there? Veru kewl indeed!

[chelleannbella]

You really write some beautiful stuff. It's awesome to ssee someone who makes new and interesting music, and who really enjoys what they do. Also, you're pretty cute :) You really ought to get more attention than you do. I'd much rather hear you on the radio than Justin Beiber... keep up the good work!

[zn0rffs]

Du är så jävla grym Fredde :) Bli min gitarrlärare :P

[riceNbeanz103]

<3

[NurseShaw86]

Absolutely amazing! Truly original. Keep up the good work!

[iamveggie]

Why did I discover you just now>? I like how you like your music. The weirdness of it gives it edge and heart and character, which pretty much sums up why I'm your new fan. Peace and love, bro

[1ssi7h]

This was a realy mash up :p



[missguidedish]

i love you!
