I remember listening to this song when it first came out. My gran died and I had to go to her funeral. I was staying in a Navy officer family's house in southampton and I found a radio in the room I was staying in....I turned it on and this song was playing. I sat there and cried listening to it.
@LordEizen there's a lot of different ways to play this song, that's another thing about it that makes it so correctly. any artist can just be sitting there and noodle around on the guitar until they figure it out and have a singalong with their friends. it's an a freakin anthem. more of an anthem then "Anthem" in my opinion, no hate on that song though.
wow, he actaully sounds a lot better acoustic than with the full band ......in live performances with the entire band the performances for some reason sond kind of pitchy, but here, his voice is like perfect.....
Yeah, it just goes to show you NEED some teeny show to EXPOSE you to REAL music. You're not much of an individual to find them on your own, 'cause you listen to whatever the masses are listening to...
I suppose i was replying to you? No, not really...
"ol at how you feel the need to let everyone know" no......as you can see I was replying to ONE person. I' dont have "the need to let everyone know" anything. lol.
Makes me miss the OC The episodes with Seth, Summer, Marissa and Ryan were the best :)

@Extereme88 Yes, it is Epiphone.

@Micko93bj Right. I know that he can afford a Gibson but I can see that it says Epiphone on the headstock.
