Seether - Sprint "Rise Above This" Video

[RatherEpicPotato]

This video is absolutely, heart wrenchingly amazing.

May Eugene rest in peace. It was not his time, and it should never be anyone's.

[Grizzlyman619]

Saw them lastnight ate edge fest Seether was good that played county song new song

[MrsHolliValo]

0:33 wow his brother looked so much like him! I feel so bad for Shaun but am so proud of him!

[willsprincessa]

i lov shuan morgan so much so so so much

[toast2town]

love you guys! so real! meaning full.

[Greendaygirl2450]

How could anyone dislike this video? Have a heart you stupid fools.

[117nmw]

poor, poor seether...

[MisteReflex]

Omg this is totally nickelback's music!

With a story and very awesome!

[MrsHolliValo]

@MisteReflex Seether did this 1st though :) (xox) but I agree sure does sound like them...

[card144]

he looks like kurt cobain damn. 50%

[EmoZombie503]

i can see Shaun with a nirvana t shirt under that hoodie haha i have the same one =] wish nirvana was around tho =/

[arikay123]

This song effects me just as strongly as it did the first time I heard it, such an amazing group!

[jasperjanson]

at 0.35 the right one is wearing an breaking benjamin shirt

[chemical2romance]

My mom was pregnant with me when my cousin committed suicide it shook her up so much that she almost lost me. Suicide effect everyone. It almost prevented me from living.

[Ronaldinho0l0]

@chemical2romance and ur saying that because... ?

[wearblackclothes]

no lie deing is expencive

[v1p1991]

Everytime i listen to this song or watch the music video to it, one thing that i'm just sure - IMHO, it's the greatest Seether's song ever!!! Also like the song persistance, 'cause sense of lyrics helps me medicate somehow...

[betrayeduser]

i know this song helped me after my brother died...

[sparklymom]

Wow...just...wow. What an incredibly and viscerally moving piece. Brilliant. My heart to goes out to Shawn, and everyone who's lost a loved one by such means.

[h2oteen]

@99xstrenghtx99 :hugs:

[gubgubmclovin]

I ♥ you Bianca =)!

[MoveAlongGirl]

THat's horrible, I <3 Seether. But what I like most about this vid is the fact that the singer's bro has a Breaking Benjamin t-shirt on. <3

[jcottier1963]

Oh, I am from a place where we need alot of help in this area. Suicide is like a plague here. So many kids attempting and committing suicide. I just read in the paper a man died at his home yesterday and I know what that means. In this area in the last year at least 12 have been committed and twice that many has attempted.

[DragONheart27X]

i agree, don;t wanna put all the blame on the emo culture but they are amplifying it, people should listen more to bands like them (and BB) than those MCR crap

[retared88]

People kill them selves on their own they want to. What you just said also says that video games have something to do with school shootings and it doesn't. A shitty school and a pissed off fuck up do that.

[Halocuber]

@retared88 . bullies are the reason for that.

[retared88]

@Halocuber true

I like being bullied it gives me some thing to fight against

[jcottier1963]

His brother committed suicide after he played at the Sturgis Bike Rally. That night he did that. The newspaper just reported a man committed suicide and said what happened but gave no name. After about a week they said that it was the brother of Shawn.

[etheir16]

hahaha

[malissasweety]

I just love seether!!!

[isha7ar]

Great Great man !!!

i feel that he's singing from inside not throwing just words with melody !

i like seether and its style !

[jamiel80]

Suicide is not a solution to your problem, but it may cause more problem.. If you want your problems go bye-bye face it.

[jamiel80]

I wish this song will be a christian song..

[AdamGontierLoverFE11]

oh my gosh i didnt know that aw poor shaun why did his brother want too commit suicide anyways not that i real want too know its just you know but this song is awesome

[piethatimmerrecht]

His Brother ????? OMG :((((((((

[azstryde1]

How good are songs like this that hand REAL meaning...I love it!

[Secretajianman]

dude..don't go all apeshit of on that person, he can say what he believes and you can say what you believe. I'm an atheist, but I dont go around saying, "Your an asshole for believing in a god

[freekickdavid]

good point, my family are catholic but i don't really care about religion, fighting about religion is a waste of time

[omgitsnetagain]

When I heard this I thought of my bf that tryed suicide, it does hurt all around them... but now when I lie in bed as he sleeps I think that what a blessing it is dispite his severe alcoholism... I love him and God bless you Shawn I know how close it was to me, and the strength it had to be for you to carry on... xo... xo

[wwerocks37]

he wasn't really a celebrity, but just the brother of a celebrity.

[RachelAlexandraK]

OMG> i didnt k tht...who was his brother..lik a celeb or wat?

[djaloshi69]

I am sorry to hear that about your brother. I lost my only brother due to suicide, I have never been the same nor will be the same the day I lost him. I can relate to your pain. And your music. You are a great singer.

[artisticangel17]

this video is so powerful.

[bnewton81]

This video made me cry. I sometimes worry about my brother, because he has no friends and has difficulty fitting in. God I hope he finds his way.

[OMFGsoBOARD]

The video and the ideas for the video were beautiful. But don't stop people from killing themselves, we need miserable people to die. Treatment for depression through psychiatry/drugs, clinical therapy, and selff help is a fucking Joke. You gett a psycho who searches for reasons to live but is still fuckd up and drags down others around them.

[KurdaxPride]

Dude your disgusting

[geminijeannie]

LMAO @ all of the "To Believe or Not To Believe" bickering... Very confused about religion myself. There have been times I have questioned the existence of God because I was very angry w/ him. Then it hit me- how could I be mad at someone I didn't believe in? I have been where his brother went. Only 2 things happen at the edge of that suicidal cliff... God will either catch you when you fall, or TEACH YOU HOW TO FLY (on your way to HEAVEN) !!!

[brofranomo]

I will tell you one thing tha's very important. God helps those who help themselves. If you sit back and think that God is going to step into your life and pull yourself out of your problems, not going to happen. If you try to help yourself, watch what happens. I'm far from being a bible thumper. I couldn't tell you one sentence of the bible, but I can tell you I shoved a needle in my arm for 16 years many times a day. I tried it, been clean for almost 13 years. Life is good now.

[bnewton81]

I too was an addict for more than half my life. I aggree with 99% of what you said. But God help those who BELIEVE, not who help themselves. I totally understand what you mean though. All God wants from you is your faith. You and I are completely and whole unable to please Him apart from that. I do read and study the Bible. Good comment.

[brofranomo]

I think that BELIEVING is the first start in helping yourself. Thank you for the comment.

[CaZaC]

haha

[Patchamp13]

i hate relgion

[Patchamp13]

only when pple argue over wat is real and not it pisses me off

[goolim]

i dont belive in god, but i can see why ppl want to belive in him. and to answear the question ''why dont he end war and end suffering'' well children have to learn on their own you know :P but well i dont think hes out there, but if he is he might want us to grow up and deal with our own problems. if he solve everything, then none of us would grow and learn anything

[MrsShaddix101]

OK, this is why I don't have a religion. This is just fucked up. I don't believe in God just because I just don't believe in any of that shit. Religion is the main reason we argue and have war. If this so called "God" is real, then he is one huge FUCKFACE! Why would he put everyone through so much pain and suffering? All of this is just bullshit. You all should just get over it.

[voltage127]

hey cwaabaa you said if people are going to become christian thats up to god so if christianity is the right "relationship with god" why doesnt god make everyone christian.

and i am christian i just like poking holes in theorys

[pinkpanther2010010]

God doesn't make everyone Christians bcz he gave us FREE WILL

[voltage127]

ok good point

[voltage127]

cwaabaa i am christian I just dont think god would want people to fight in his name. So everyone else on here stop trying to convert people.or dont it doesnt really affect me

[pinkpanther2010010]

Otayy you say you are but yet you say that we should not fight in his name? Have you read the Bible at all? We are suppose to stand up for what is right in his name and God did alot of fighting in the old day, and do you really want all the ppl that are not christians to rout in hell because if we do not try than that is sadly what is going to happen to them

[CaZaC]

haha, Im gonna start a religion where we worship and pray to the sun. The sun provides me the light and energy that I need to survive. It keeps me warm, inadvertantly provides food. It gives life. I can also pray to the sun, or to god and have a 50-50 chance of having my prayer answered. Anyone wanna join? hahahahha

[OrlockZero]

grow up kid, if u dont trust god its your business

[CaZaC]

ohh I do, the sun treats me the way I treat it. Its never been better.

[ThaProductor]

hey the trojans had that same religon:)

[pinkpanther2010010]

if you do thatthan God will not answer you until you are faithfully back with him and not worshiping anything else

[voltage127]

do you really think someone as powerful as god cares about a bunch of idiots arguing over religion. there probably isnt a right religion. and he's probably up there laughing thinking what is wrong with them.

[ghostfox117]

yeah i know he cares, he cares ALOT. he sent his son Jesus Christ to die for you. because he cares. he created you as an individual. God is not cruel.

[cwaabaa]

voltage127, he made us in his image, not physically, but we have the same traits. as we have "fallen from grace" or whatever you want to call it, we're obviously going to be nowhere near as good as god, but we can still love each other. god can love us more completely than we can ever imagine, and he does. even if your not a christian (and something tells me u might not be) you can understand that rite?

[OxidesBR]

Very good song and i love that he wrote a song to get the message across to people who are considering suicide that it's not going to be helpful in any way.

[RyuzakiRebirth]

Shaun was and still is my inspiration to become a singer. Seether changed how i look at music and made it my world. Thanks.

[kalbongaso187]

one of the best song and video, and the girl that played his sister is super hottttttttttttttttttt, wait is dat his real sister ? anyway very good song and the video is one of the best video ive seen.

[prozzak2006]

its only the unknown people are scared of. if there can be a way to be sure that there is a beautiful afterlife, then everyone would commit suicide to get to that place. and people left behind wouldnt be "sad", they'd just be jealous, because the guy commited suicide gets to go some place beautiful, while he has to be stuck on earth. and with the tensions between the US and pretty much all other countries right now, im smelling WW3... wouldnt wanna stick around when that happens.

[Serpentine86]

dude when you commit suicide you go to hell because commiting suicide is against one of God's rules "You shall not kill"because commiting suicide is killing yourself...

[prozzak2006]

so that means eugene is in hell right now

[fight779]

you can burn in hell for sayin that

[HeavenDenies909]

im religious too but youtube isnt for preaching your religions nor is real life.. people will just hate you for it

[ghostfox117]

are suggesting i just keep quiet when i beleive that everyone who doesnt know Jesus goes to hell. can you blame me for trying to talk to people. you should respect christians when they preach, it means they care for your well being. even if you reject it all i tried to do was help you. but if hate's what you got i know i was justified trying.

[HeavenDenies909]

dude im christian, but youtube is NOT for preaching your religion if you preach about religion people will just see christianity as a cult, "oh join us were the right religion" there is no right religion everybody has their own shit 2 deal with and what the fucken ever but anyways, your a faggot

[ghostfox117]

how can you be christian if you just said "there is no right religion"? i guarantee any pastor can help you with your problems, but i wont tell you what to do with your life. you're right just rott there alone and helpless and i wont lose a wink of sleep knowing that i tried to help you. sorry if that sounded hurtfull but i need to get my point across. all i am trying to do is help you. ignore me fine but dont chastice me for it.

[cwaabaa]

theres no right religion cuz christianity isnt a religion. christianity is a relationship with God. i really dont think you care about people, thats not why your trying to "save" them, your doing it for yourself, for your own glory. if your honest with yourself youll see that, but if not "i wont lose a wink of sleep knowing that i tried to help you"

i dont go shoving christianity down peoples throats. if they are going to become christian, thats up to god. i only help if he askes me to.

[ghostfox117]

what is the difinition of a religion again?

[cwaabaa]

you tell me

[voltage127]

dfjasfgjawdngjndjifgniadngfsju­jvdsvgkds

[FredSUCKS4Ever]

O.O wtf?

[PretendFilm]

yeah hes from south africa and im pretty sure he also said hes part german

[FeARspencer]

u may call me ignorant but i dont care... just wonderin what nationality is shaun/Seether in general?

[MichaelBlem]

South African

[jonnykid555]

ah

he sings kinda american but talks kinda english but south african makes sense

[Serpentine86]

i have always wondered that. Also i have wondered how the band got together and how they come up with the ideas for the songs...

[ou8it481]

they have different last names because Shaun dropped his last name and took his middle name as his last

[benoleno06]

how come shaun has a different surname to his brother?

[ABnonimouse]

He has the same surname, just doesn't use it.

[tafkaleaf]

The fact that a sprint logo comes up first......just disgusting....not even going to watch the video because of that.

[fight779]

dude....its a good video don't dismiss it because of the sprint logo....watch it

[bmw328igearhead]

The members of Seether are truly great people, both on and off stage. I just recently heard a radio ad with Dale in it for Kids Helpphone here in Canada. You guys truly rule, my favorite band, and unless something horrible happens with the music, Seether will always remain my favorite band.

Keep up the amazing work guys!

[punksrule4life]

This is one of the bands that help me trough a really rough time and they're one of the few bands that prevented me from comitting suicide. They mean so much to me! Even though they're not my absolute favorite band, they hold a very piece of my soul

[Xonko9]

Im so sorry shaun, youve had a tough life, i now but, this didnt have to happen. Im so sorry. YOU RoCK!

[lpluvr4ever]

Seether is my lifeeeee.

I have their tattoo on my wrist :D

[marki20000000]

its horrible that his bro killed himself but he's in a better place now =(

[Xonko9]

thats how i feel to...

[restxinxlove]

that still won't make him feel any better you never get over something like that you learn to live with it im sorry it happend my cousin tried to commit suicide and i've tried to commit suicide its horrible and i would never wish it upon any one and yes he's in a better place

[prozzak2006]

if he's really in a better place then why the fuck is suicide such a bad thing ? its only bad for the selfish idiots left behind who go on and on and spray this negative bullshit on everyone, but for the guy who commited the suicide he's actually in a better place. and he probably isnt depressed anymore.

[nicolenice1218]

Great song, great video, great interview.

[WildfireChild]

Shaun speaks the truth yet again! The members of Seether, in my opinion, are heroes through music...

[ILoveES33]

Very touching & very emotional. Been there done that as I mentioned when I met Shaun in September. Only thanks to him & others in rock I'm still here to tell about it.

[FoxunFur3046]

Every time i watch that video i choke up abit at the end.

[MiGP1981]

Seether 4ever!

[sparrow1317]

<3 Seether

[esppio111111]

SEETHER FTW
