[init4mojo]

Seen this band live many times, always great

[whatwhat1962]

I got here by typing in "turn your head now baby just spit me out" cause i didnt kno the name of it! haha

[eltenrio007]

HEY GUYS, COME TO DOMINICAN REPUBLIC , PLEASE.

[Brugality]

wow just lost some respect for this band watching this terrible/lame/uninspired live performance of a classic. about to go watch some more live videos. maybe this is just an off night/track

[zensgurl]

@Brugality how is this unispired?? you have no idea!! this version is totally kick ass!! Ed Told me one of the times i was privillaged enough to be in his presents that all you need is 1 positive person to make 100 people as positive as you are!!..... My friend you seem to not have one ounce of positiveness inside you, best to keep your negitivity to yourself!!

[Brugality]

@zensgurl He's on a different key to begin with cuz the dumb fuck can't actuallly sing.  This is lame as hell.

[irishman8137]

wow just awesome and great solo

[nickelgrandma]

WOW that solo

[MissTeenPregnancy]

8 people spoke of doubt -SORRY! i couldn't help make that stupid comment.

..... anyway, wow gotta love this band. Ed is a true icon of music in my opinion. An authentic singer, songwriter , player. Just one of my favorite bands. No need to catagorize them in any way in these days of 'rap,rock, dance, tech, hip, etc' ...This is just good music from real musicians that can be enjoyed by any person

[timarmstrong666]

death and black metal are my favorite genres but you gotta kick back from all the violence every once and a while. THUMBS UP TO COLLECTIVE SOUL!!!

[pillhead30mg]

great song, but is it just me or is he singing a little slow?

[SuperMavourneen]

@pillhead30mg its not just you. tempo reduced :)

[hurricanekiki]

Where did the dark haired dude go that was the lead singer for Collective Soul?

[elocrellim]

@hurricanekiki It's the same guy, just different hair color. It threw me off too.

[hurricanekiki]

@elocrellim  Thanks elocre

[AnalDan]

@hurricanekiki it's called 'just for men' bro

[Tomcooilinc]

Geez why weren't these guys the most popular band in the world? Such talent...............

[vertigo2112]

drummer is stiff tough to watch

[TheEasyRiderr1]

the acoustic version in morocco is even better/cooler!!

[ReimondoBassist]

The drummer is doing thumbs down.

[vertigo2112]

@ReimondoBassist

he is telling sound guy to lower volume in monitor

[ReimondoBassist]

@vertigo2112 Or he's saying "I wanna play!"

[rdsxluvrynkyhatr]

They need to play at the halftime show for the super bowl

[Tomcooilinc]

you got that right!

[rdsxluvrynkyhatr]

8 people don't know good songs!!

[aztreehugger]

Loved these guys in the 90's, remember jamming out to these guys a couple of times live. Great CD

[700shaner]

Awsome song still and always WILL BE:-)

[sucialito]

I like very much this song, would be great if someone put the lyrics on it. (sorry for my bad english).

[twiggyTube90]

K F O G in the right place at the right time! Jam out. . .

[pizzaisyummy86]

The best live performance of this song I've seen on Youtube. Thx for Upload!

[sijuirl]

Thumps up to 90s music...wish year 2000 never happened...

[MyGuitarman101]

OMG i wish i was there!!!

[tribenfrederick]

Better than the original... turn it on!

[godshealer7]

are you guys born again? seems god is speaking toyou ollie 1232 that is the holy ghost google it

[godshealer7]

are you guys born again? seems god is speaking toyou

[ollie1232]

This song gives me chill bumps! THis song is so damn awesome

[guitarlover567]

used to really like this song. now i just get sad by it. i feel bad for the singer. the lame ass hair, hes dancing like its a heavy rock song. and he plays that same dame verse way too much. try some variety

[JaredG24]

@guitarlover567 Some songs don't need variety to touch the soul my friend. I'm aware that you're entitled to your opinion, but you need to realize that if all music were written to your taste, then noone else would be able to enjoy it as much as you. Music is emotion, not variety.

[captainconrizzle]

One of the few bands that sound just as good live as they do in a recording studio.....true talent!

[vivismith]

Loved your concert please come back to Thunder Bay again ,,favorite song 

[typickoopakid]

collective soul is so much bigger then they really are

[hellridermyx]

y does the riff sound funny?

[neonjunglejumper]

@hellridermyx sounds fine to me, might just be a bit of delay/reverb on the guitar is that what ur referring too ? :)

brilliant live sound.

[BlindDuck1]

they are as tight live as on record. One hell of a veteran band.

[smoothy883]

I have a question for anyone out there who watches Special Report with Greta van Susteren. The one night on her show she said after the break she would tell her audience one thing that Rush Limbaugh wants and doesn't have. I missed the rest of the show so I don't know what that one thing was. This is a serious question, can someone please what was the one thing Rush limbaugh doesnt have but wish he did? And please dont say any non serious answeers like balls ordick or some stupid shit like that

[Paulwall9494]

@smoothy883 dignity

[smoothy883]

@Paulwall9494 no dude im serious. Im just curious to know.

[saylean]

Collective Soul is timeless.

[coca692]

unas de las mejores bandas del los 90's

[p0n6k1n68000]

one of the great bands in 90's..wohoooo..classic. i love they play their guitar.

[jEdswApoO]

oh yeah!

[micoletta80]

In the cd Collective Soul by Collective Soul

[thejakeludwig]

This is a really great song! The two Marshall amps that the lead guitarist is useing and the singer is useing is the same type of amp I go through! lol. What CD is this song by Collective Soul on?

[liltommy69]

do anybody thinks this song is about getting a blow job

[MrMurrayHewitt]

@liltommy69 By ya muddah?

[TheRuckus75]

These guys are all business, in a good way

[burgershot29]

this song will get u through anything. reset your mood

[travismofo]

Looks like chad crouger or chad crouger looks like him

[baileythedudeman57]

@travismofo chad kroger looks like him

[tammydray]

Saw them live in vancouver 2010 olympic venue!! Best show on earth!!

[jacqmact]

this band is wicked good live!

[odiedude]

love this song

[imactuallyserious]

just learning how to play this on the guitar i think its an awesome song

[kiddhitta]

man their guitar player can shred a mean solo. and their drummer plays with is one stick classical grip and backwards. never seen that before

[lcsk81017]

I like the PRS McCarty Hollow-body Modern eagle model in the blue and white stain with gold hrdwr... that's beauty guys... buti think a tele is the way to go. BUT!!! if i were to evern get another humbucking guitar, it would be aPRS, b/c of their many tonal/coilspliting capabilities. thier amazing and not half as apt to get muddy as a standard Les Paul.

[shigato1008]

think the drummer is cooler then them all o.o

[mothulicka]

The 3 guitarist are signed to PRS...they are all playing Paul Reed Smiths, probably the custom 24 and/or 22

[ibaneziceman300]

there is a bunch of people that use prs's like santana, chad kroeger of nickelback, prs himself xD, ben burnley from breaking benjamin, and a crapload more :P

[mothulicka]

dude my favorite one is the Al Di Meola "Prism"...it is a piece of heaven wrapped in a most impressive package...check it out on the PRS web site...all their Private stocks are incredible!

[guitardudez]

check out my cover of collectives soul's masterpiece, December at

myspacedotcom/stathopoulos

[MrShane82]

there is a possibility its a Carvin California Top .... maybe PRS tho

[1337FolkenWarrior]

anyone know what guitar he is using?

[westman247]

@1337FolkenWarrior i think its a prs

[CharlieAndLola68]

Looks like a Paul Reed Smith guitar.

[mothulicka]

you need to learn a thing or two about guitars if you can't tell what that is...PRS baby! the most crunchy axes this side of the universe.

[1337FolkenWarrior]

i was a huge metalhead up until about 2 months ago... dont use PRS for metal

[mothulicka]

not that i like metal or even play it, but i know that metal heads (with money) love PRS cause they are so versatile, not too mention they sound better than anything on the commercial market.

[JimboJammer1]

What a Great Band ..They  Rock.

[randersona]

ya he definitely just hit a chokin bowl haha

[Debsworlddotcom]

i know...what's the deal with the tempo here???......either that or he just smoked a big bowl

[animwoman]

I really don't know but what annoys me the most is that it's not on the right tone.... Damn! It's the second clip i'm watching of this song and they do it down tuned.... I guess a tone or half...

[nashvilleoutlaw]

a lot of bands tune up to standard when recording because when recording a half step down or more. music seems to sound to dark depending on the song

[animwoman]

Thanks, I just never heard about that before! That's interesting!

[nashvilleoutlaw]

yea its weird how that works. some stuff sounds like its a full step down when its really only a half step down. A lot of stuff is easier to sing a half step down as well . I'm sure thats why they play it like that live

[animwoman]

Well I didn't expected a so intelligent answer. Thanks a lot :) It makes a lot of sense! I guess I'll be more able to appreciate now that I know that...

[pap4500]

must have been on herion high good song though

[visgeorg]

that fucking song is not december azo¨sssssssss is NOVEMBER JUST LISENT THE SONG ITS A GREAT SON NOVEMBER AZOOOOOOOOSSS

[aryax99]

dude sorry to disturb u but this song is december idont know wat u think it is but this song is called December

[Mariekesone]

Always loved this track..

Awesome..Good to see it here live:-)

[CrookedX777]

Great live performance!

[Robby771]

Love the singers dainty footwork!

[xtremegoth21]

omg this might be the most boring band live I've ever seen. I like the song but they blow live.

[Chriszombieman]

agree to 110 %

[itsallgood239]

Love this song. I'm glad my friend showed me this band.

[rockhurstalum09]

NICE SOLO BY JOEL! 4:27

[happyjack39]

EXCELLENT!!!!!

[86boyz]

looks like hes floating on stage

[GoldiString]

love this song.. and his curly shoulder length hair too. :)

[diorite150]

going to see them on Oct.22 ....SOOOOO PUMPEDDD!!!

[kperk014]

Saw them Saturday night in Huntsville, Al and they rocked. That's the 2nd time I've seen them and even the rain couldn't hold back the crowd. CS is one of the best bands at getting the crowd involved, much better than the Black Crowes did the night before.

[GyroVorbis]

Haha, I saw them in Huntsville too! And hell yeah, best band there. People were standing in the rain just to see them and had an amazing time.

[kingdcg7]

Hell yeah... the end is SICK!

[fridaynightjones]

whoa... this is cool. I like the weird change-up they threw in at the end; almost made the song danceable. I just saw them Saturday in Atlanta, and this song might have been the highlight of the show... these Georgia boys rock the house.

[Renegator92]

Saturday's Performance was better than this. But youre right, it was kinda Danceable.

CS forever!

[wan2do]

WTF bad version of this song they so recked it

[staythecourse123]

*you're

[garritj]

Lead, Rhythm, Bass and Ed --- one of the great bands around!

[rwilson091]

your an idiot stay. your jealous of talent

[shparker]

your the idiot

[loran0001]

if there idiots why were they able to write songs that millions of people all around the world love? I'm not saying you have to like it, but at least give them the respect they deserve as songwriters and entertainers. i looked at your channel by the way, and i have lost all respect for you after I saw multiple videos with amy lee, she dosen't even write her own stuff. Plus she's incapable of singing without a pitch bender to correct her awfull voice.

[imaStonesGirl]

They are awesome and i know talent when i hear it

[fraud1980]

ask your mom..

[hyde097]

there music is much better on stage

i have 7even year itch and all the song on that album sound better live

[garyhammarstrom1]

love collective soul & their songs(brilliant) but lead singer/guitarist doesn't seem to gel with his band mates.this is only what i have watched off utube

[penyuwan]

Love the alternate version of this song, much quicker at the end. Awesome : ). Collective Soul and Poets of the Fall my fav alltime rockband.

[thickbrianq]

saw them years ago at the Shriner here in Billings Montana, they fucking ROCK!!!!

[guilhermebsr]

This is good song!

[timmcgrawgirl]

love this song!!! :)

[CKNrangers]

LOL! I can play some of this!!! And I've been looking for this song forever!!! Thanks!!!

[spook1303]

i'll be seeing collective soul tomorrow night in a small club in kansas city. i can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rockhurstalum09]

I'm seeing them tomorrow too!

[TheWildblessing]

Just the best band ever. Ed looks so wild in those tight jeans. Great performance.

[matcraizy]

great band

[queenforlife96]

cant beleive how awesome this song is

[rockhurstalum09]

I really like the fact that the band added a solo to this song. Hearing the same version can get old.

[RedemptioninProgress]

acutally i think its calming but the solo adds a kick to it

[awkando2]

such an underrated band

[columnofsmoke]

farm out

[RRCLince]

Good ol times, great nostalgic song.

[xTJxBeasTx]

seeing them live on sunday!

[Osthus91]

great music

[silvajorst]

Who cares about his personal life? It´s a great music from a great band.

[DRAWJIJI]

good music the collective soul

[tuckerwells]

you must be Ed Roland's shemale of a wife

[redoubt9000]

mm...why on almost every single live vid of this song... he plays the notes differently... ? I mean okay ya, its live they change it up, but wow.. it .. i dont know i just dont like it as much as i do the one from the cd?

[ElysiumRoland]

This is one of the coolest live versions I've heard of December. Ed was perfect and Joel rawked! CS is timeless!

[brendakaye34]

Ya know, as long as they keep putting out kick ass music like this, I don't know why anyone cares 'who's doin who' - seriously! p.s. thanks for posting such a great video - I love it!

[Emeraldknife]

Just because his wife is expecting is no proof he's not gay, dude. I know a lot of married to the opposite sex gay dudes. Lots of reasons why.

[cinthyagam]

tee en es el pee pee tee es oh

[xXxGenOcidExXx]

awesome!

[ManganeseMan]

Great Tune, Great Band

[CornellWolf]

Best song ever!

[lovebledhate]

i miss the 90s...

[girlofwar2]

ed is playing 80% of the song!, hes playing lead, singing, and other than the drummer, hes doing everything!

[tuckerwells]

Ed Roland looks pretty damn fruity

[teri81979]

He's not gay by the way his wife is due in July

[tuckerwells]

thanks for the info...too bad i don't give a rats ass

[JonatanCoelho2009]

ecxelent :)

[heathenbreathinfire]

best collective soul song.

[vickylovesmickey]

i..agree..and i've been wanting to go to a concert of theirs but im sure as hell not wasting money on THAT.

[tuckerwells]

thank you! this is an awful show/concert

[JaydaFoooah]

WOW...sounds totally different.....now i know why evreyone had the "live version....but WHY?....what about OG??? i'm sure it's on here but christ....now that i heard it, it sounds like shit. except the singer. he did good...the lead gutarist sounded like a fill-in. fuck that

[JaydaFoooah]

finally...something i can actually hear!! wtf....ppl don't know about quality, they just want "hits" on thier inbox. stupid noobs. now this guy got my hit...full on! bout time....

[fliwheel]

I don't think this song is about a girl/ lady who "wronged" Ed (Roland.) If I'm not mistaken this song encompasses the band's discontentment with their old management - (who incidentally wasn't looking out for their best interest.) These feelings were followed up on their third album - Discipline Breakdown.

[Madonnaadonis]

Hey. I know what she did to him. She gave him that God awful hair do.

[Madonnaadonis]

Hey all you guys that are looking at this video. What did the girl do to Ed to make him so ANGRY!!??

[Onlydreamin1959]

Nice. Too bad the band dropped their offical videos from You Tube. I bought their entire collection based upon ptfromances on You Tube, so I think the band might recosider baseed upon demographics. Yeah, great song. A little biiter? Probably. So dissapointed in how this band handled copyright.

[ryanmurphy15]

The key is dropped to Gb

[ryanmurphy15]

Sorry, dropped to B, not Gb, Gb is the first chord though

[littlenicky999]

wheres his brother at?

[kawikeith]

It all sounds diff from what is recorded. I thought it was just cause it was live.

[razorzcori]

no i totally agree it's definitely different from the original especially toward the end. I like it though.

[TheNewWorldMan69]

is it just me or does the guitar sound different.

[mustangmilligan]

is this song about felatio? i always wondered lol.

[heinz454]

Yeah, its written from the sperm's perspective

[joefacenutter]

I like the difference in this over the recorded one +1

[jleb310ce]

First comment! ...

And what a performance !! ...Two thumbs up!
