Rise Against: Swing Life Away (Live)

[Thedarktwilighwind]

I think that they should also do an acoustic of wait for me

[b0b3na]

I LOVE RISE AGAINST!!!! WHY CAN'T THERE BE A "LOVE LIKE HOLY SHIT" BUTTON???!!!

[alanihawaii123]

Finally! Someone that actually know's what they're doing! He sings like a pro, plays like a pro, writes like a pro and is one of the most humble people in music today. Just entirely professional all around, along with the rest of the band. Also the fact that at the end of this performance he said "take care of each other" says a lot.

[UtwoOneMaster]

I like *ing animals. Oh, and I like Rise Against.

Sorry

[Calib29]

Beautiful. Uplifting.

[nyjeterss]

Wish Chris was still there :(

[Paddiik]

WAHT THE HELL o:

THIS SHIT IS SOOO GREAT *-*

[wtfson234]

i saw this song live last night, it was amazing

[mustaphamirim]

Chris made a mistake at the end of the bridge/solo, lol.

Great performance anyway.

[luukyman1]

Tim McIlrath and Kurt Cobain are GOD!

[XMrFabricatorX]

@luukyman1 Kurt Cobain WAS God, but now it's Tim's Time. RIP Kurt Cobain :(

[SingingLuigis]

I wanna be Tim McIlrath when I grow up

[dasmatzexD]

[alexamerling20]

[LaurenceTheGinger]

one of the few singers that sounds good live aswell as in the studio

[calgaryflamesboy1497]

this is my favourite version of "Swing Life Away"

[TwilightLink293]

he looks like Jeffrey Dean Morgan

[TheGoodLeftUndone27]

Hmm... can someone tell me the chords he uses for the chorus? Mine are sooo wrong. lol

[RABeatsForLife]

[AmonOfTheSahelijos]

@MASTEROFPUPPETS238 doubt it, hes married and has a family.

[Joint00786]

[hnaht321]

@Joint00786 would u like to help a fan learn this song?im not sure what the first chord he plays is.

[Joint00786]

@hnaht321

mh. i will try to make a cover, so you can look.

i watched some rise against vids, to learn it by myself ;D

[MrSpyKload]

Is it just me or is That a crappy audience?

[kurtcoibainjr]

@MrSpyKload I think that is why he did so well. he was trying to reach them.

[VALKRYE2009]

holy shit i pick like tim

[Sigma16Productions]

one of my all time favorite songs

[skittlezrocks1]

AMAZING IM A DUDE BUT I DONT CARE <3

[zupper112]

The harmony between Chris and Tim is amazing.

[skittlezrocks1]

@zupper112 so true

[metalrocker2000]

YOU WELCOME

[HoochHendrix]

i want to write a song with this sort of power

[xXxCloud25xXx]

@HoochHendrix theres a band on youtube, unsigned, their name is cardinal chase, they are amazing, look at thier song intentions

[HoochHendrix]

@xXxCloud25xXx Thanks Alot that song is actually really good has a weird beach bum vibe to it. Thanks for switching me on to it. If you get the chance check out state radio- indian moon. Amazing band from boston

[unikwale]

love them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CoolWat3r79182]

beautiful song

[dasmatzexD]

i want to kill the 6 persons who miss the like button!!

[MayBrittibrit]

i love this song! .. itý the best song of them.. thats MY opinion!:D

it´s sooo beautiful :*)

[Ebeet0FAN]

Another station another mile DVD came out yesterday over here in Germany and HELL YEAR IT IS A GOOD DVD BUY IT!!!!!

[doorwayman]

Oh my God. Put transcribe audio on xD!

[nyjeterss]

WIsh Chris was still in the band :(

[easternbiker47]

@nyjeterss it seems like everybody likes chris better. i just think he is a much better guitar player. all zach has on him is live stage presence.i for one would pick a better guitar player over a stage performer any day. we should petition to bring him back!

[nyjeterss]

@easternbiker47 yea i would almost wanna say, Chris liked writing songs, but yet knew they would never really be played since Tim is in charge of 99% of song writing. Chris knew he was good enough to play in his band, so i think they just respectful parted ways. Which would make sense with all the guitarists they have had.

Zach even admitted all he does is play all the songs Tim writes

[CriticsConfession]

Tim McIlrath easily has the best voice ever given to anybody.

[fyouckman]

@CriticsConfession Maynard from TOOL has him beat, sorry

[easternbiker47]

@fyouckman bullshit

[qckiller10]

@CriticsConfession i agree

[Xpmett]

@CriticsConfession

So does shane of silverstein, there both good

[xopenthebox]

@CriticsConfession Seriously. It gives me chills! <3

[BrickUnit]

@CriticsConfession clearly you ears have never heard layne staley

[CriticsConfession]

@BrickUnit From AIC? Yeah, I've heard Layne. I still like Tim better. In fact, Layne died on my 10th birthday. Real shit day, if you ask me. Also, Cobain killed himself on my 2nd birthday...or 3rd. I suck at le math.

[BrickUnit]

@CriticsConfession youtube search nutshell, its a really good song by them, i shouldnt say good, its more really depressing :/

[JimmyMayorga]

@BrickUnit How on earth is this song depressing?



[Peterzwegat87]

@CriticsConfession what's about kurt cobain?

i think his voice is the most awesome voice ever heard..

but than definitley Tim :D

[cheposoo]

ia saque lo de la segunda huitarra en esta verzzion :D y para los q dizen q e suna mierda y no se q tanto ps q les arda mas porq mierda o no a muchos les gusta nos gusta mejor dicho y no lo pueden cambiar io soe hevy metal pero tiene rola muy bien compuestas

[OnlyF2P]

Who else gets goosebumps listening to this? It's not that adrenaline rush you get when you listen to your favorite song, it's just goosebumps cause its so awesome. You know? I dont.

[zackmusicismylife]

rise against= the shit

[AndreyGIler]

@zackmusicismylife Get out of here, people with a bad musical taste aren`t welcomed here

[zackmusicismylife]

@AndreyGIler i meant "the shit" as in "the best".

[arker91]

@zackmusicismylife I thought that was self explanatory lol

[zackmusicismylife]

@arker91 hah yha so did i.

[Valkodu]

@AndreyGIler Get out of here, people without knowledge of common phrases such as "the shit" aren't welcomed here

[EmmiStrawberry]

@zackmusicismylife AndreyGller is right.... get outta here !

[lorenita292929]

mi cancion faborita en todo el MUNDO~!

POESIA!!!

[cheposoo]

[cheposoo]

[RawrDinoCookie]

I liked toddd and chris wish they never quit i am not the biggest fan of zach.. but i wish todd was still here

[1stKarkan]

2:05

One of the greatest solos i've ever heard.

[HholyDiver42]

Who disliked this?!?!?!?!?!!!!!

[paranormal17]

not bad, for some reason i was thinking they werent that good live but id listen to it again. well actually i am watching it again hehe

[ilikerock1991]

why chris is not in the band anymore ??

[ritchteabiscuits]

@ilikerock1991 He had social anxiety problems, wich he could deal with when they were doing little gigs, but when the band got HUUUGE during "The Sufferer And The Witness" He was just too shy to perform before those big crowds :(

[deadsexybassplayer]

dang im pretty much speechless.... yep, can't think of much to say but wow talk about perfect

[itsbrittaniduh]

Tim is my absolute dream guy. I will marry him one day haha

[CoDe3691]

i love this sing <33333

[P0rn0baerchen]

i cry every time i here this song ._.

its so great theyre my idols :)

[nyjeterss]

[Jofph]

Wow....

[RawrDinoCookie]

I love this song more live <3 :D

[phukler182]

so so so so soooo fucking amaizng.

love this band, and song.

i think i like this better than the studio version (:

[dylandalu]

tis a grand song

[jitk1]

yeah, great band with the sound of an amaizing guitar. taylor+riseagainst=amizing explosions of the eardrums

[guitarkoala5]

My favorite song by them - also one of my favorite bands - they are by far the best lyrical band our there:)

[jgkov49]

that crowds to chill to be at a rise against concert

[dasmatzexD]

amazing *____*

[toki92]

Their best song

I love it

[JoshyBallz4]

what a BORING fuckin crowd!!

[skotty92]

Wel yeah, but it'S not a concert but the NAMM and they're there for Taylor Guitars.

Would you expect the people to mosh around while Tim is singing three relatively calm songs?

[corvert13]

Their playing acoustic guitars singing Swing life away... what did you expect? a mosh pit?

[mrwafflerocker]

One of my favorites from them...actually...i think it is my favorite, I love rise against <333

[IllStopWhenYouDo]

I LOVE Rise Against!, Hopefully i will see them live in Metaltown 2010 in Gothenburg!, RISE AGAINST WE TRUST! , SWEDEN, Rise Against Forever!<33333

[masscashstacks]

Was my life their inspiration?

[futurerocker77]

I love how they put it one acoustic per album.

[communist9]

the suffering and the witness dosent have one. atleast i think it dosent

[futurerocker77]

i think it's called the winding road or something like that.

[kman646]

Roadside isn't acoustic but it's pretty mellow.

[feret1993]

i heard this song yesterday for the first time in about 5 years and it blew me away

[usmellots]

i know what you mean, havent heard this song forever then i saw it popup on my random youtubing sessions and it is still so good

[boredperson778]

this song was musical genius

[dielala95]

I'm so in love with this song.

[JSTMAY3]

ya they need to make an acoustic album i prefer this more then some of there heavy stuff

[Huffer777]

I dont know much about this band. Only songs i know from them are heavier. Do they have more like this?

[imagnome1]

Another acoustic song from them is Hero of War.

[boredperson778]

well they do have more acoustic songs and they also make soft acoustic versions of their heavier songs

[sjokboksok]

Great

[reno743]

awesome!

[ostyn1630]

so good!!!

[dasmatzexD]

best live performence of that song!

i love it <3

sorry my english is not so good

[MrJuanhd]

@dasmatzexD no actually ur english is very good xD

[ryancoates89]

omg they are so good live would see theam a millon times over and over.

[mrbuzz593]

when i saw them live, everyone was singing so loud, you almost couldnt hear him

[galaxy93]

@mrbuzz593 same goes for the concert i was once to :D the feeling you got there is undescribable. rise against music is just so emotional and fascinating!

[thisisorisnotsparta]

@mrbuzz593 I hate it when that kind of thing happens. It takes away from ur concert experience.

[kristofreynders]

hell yeah

[tomasreece]

Simply great!

[IloveKWEG]

year geil

[EpyKPhail]

The best acoustic song I ever heard

[kenchama9]

this is my favorite Rise Against song

[427dana]

He is soo amazing

how does he play like that and sing like that? Tim is amazing and thats why he is the lead singer of rise against because rise against is amazing

i agree with AndyERJ145 this song is amazing! :) very satsified

[droagan]

tim loos like he is just going through the motions, like he isnt having fun

wrecks the performance, just from the expressions

[sikchild247]

dude its an acoustic song... wut do u expect him to do, start headbanging???

[droagan]

no, but watch any other acoustic performance..... frankly he looks bored

great song tho

[littleguy813]

he can't have any emotion. his emotion matches the song. if it was savior or paper wings he would need emotion, this is perfect.

want to see emotionless? watch the performance of the police message in a bottle, when its just the singer. dead silence

[zanocono]

this waz my wedding song.still amazing

[AndyERJ145]

AWESOME!!!!!!!

[iamwyatt4life]

the singer is soooo good he has that voice you know its him on the radio or anywhere but hes seems so boring or seems to lack emotion though the guitar and drums change the whole feel in the songs. but rise against does kick ass.

[BeNeath0]

i just guess songs like that just lose their meaning after singing them so often

[incubus90]

i wonder why the guitarist does not do the "ah ha haaa " part in the chorus =/  but great performance :)

[ReneBrain]

he does not do a ahaaa in the chorus....

its a slow "Life Less Frightening , Life Less Frighteninig"

[incubus90]

thanks for that

[ReneBrain]

sorry it's a ahaa in swing life away the other ist in life less frightening :D

[ViktoRosengren]

his to bad singer, nah just kidding.. i dunno =p

[droagan]

because the person singing that is Joe, and Joe is not here

[Louis390]

Joe is not the singer............ he is the bass player

[droagan]

if you read the comment that i responded too you would know what i was talking about

[Louis390]

Oh, now i think i understand:P you mean that joe is the one singing the ahh ha haaaaaa parts, am i right?

[droagan]

yes

[ATMSProductions]

<3 :)

[slipknot7777777]

Seeing them tomorrow in Belfast :D:D:D:D

[forgottenson100]

wow i wish i went to that concert. . . :( those are my three most favorite songs by them. actully most of there songs have become my favorite :D

[JostStudios]

I saw them yesterday in Munich and they played swing live away and then my favorite song Hero of war....that was such a great atmosphere after all that pogo

But we start jumping around again when the played Give it all....GREAT CONCERT!!!

[forgottenson100]

such meaning. . . i love it. . . so sad. but most favorite lines. "ive got some friends, some that ive hardly known, and we've had some times i wouldnt trade for the world." the best verse ive ever heard

[Gumby777]

that line almost always makes me teary eyed

[hatchetiscarrot77]

their best song ever.

[fr3nsur]

Rise Against in my heart

[EinGlasVollDreck]

iich liebe dieses lied ♥

[cdynckl]

Ich auch. Ich liebe Rise Against.

[escapethefateissick]

[cdynckl]

[Gangsta21121]

I saw them live.. and they played it first swing life away and then hero of war :D that was really awesome.. :D

[yoyodude080]

love the natural harmonics in the intro. never noticed them in the song before

[Erdbeerlolly100]

Tolles Lied :-)

[cerpus]

[StrgAltEntf4ever]
