Jesse Lacey - Trees (New Song)

[troyzb6]

little cities names are boo'ed on the maps

[bbannach24]

holy shit how did he hit those notes!

[randomactsok]

This is Bought A Bride... Change the title.

[7O0OL]

0 dislikes. Hell yes.

[hairymastadon]

boy scout buttons on his strap? :o

[Traviedne]

I love how the crowd sits there and is just listening.

[surefirenelc]

i guess i should go ahead and update the title of this song to "Bought a Bride"

[abigailbilbo]

@insaner338 It was before they actually released the song/giving it its official name.

[couchboss]

no dislikes. fucking awesome

[ryanxdavey]

This song should always have stayed in this format...

[MrLongSofty]

ripped it

[michaelbeast15]

My question is why would you name it trees? If I wasn't familiar with this song and I had to guess the title, I would guess Bought A Bride.

[ksk8er07]

because he is very creative

[roblovesbrandnew]

zingry you are a god dam coward for saying you would be cool if brand new breaks up as long as jl continues. That is some retarted shit to say my brother. You might want to show some respect for the others, they are all the best at what they do! The day they break up is the day I put a bullet in my head:)

[diabloxscorchox]

@roblovesbrandnew woah...um...ok.

[zinrgy]

@roblovesbrandnew Well you may be a goddamn coward for committing suicide over a band :)

Meh, they are my favorite band--but I love Jesse's lyrics and songs. I'll be honest about that. Of course I'd prefer BN to just Jesse, just as people would prefer NMH to just Mangum. All I'm saying is that I hope he never stops writing.

[VengefulScreamingCS]

Chills went down my spine when he started screaming

[blink182fan10]

@zinrgy What a stupid thing to say. Jesse Lacey isn't the only talent in Brand New. Vin's a great writer and wrote a large chunk of Daisy. As for Brian, Garret and Derrick, they're all talented and bring something to the table to make what Brand New is.

[zinrgy]

@blink182fan10 Um, except for the fact that "Daisy" has some of the weakest BN lyrics I've ever heard, to be honest. Pale in comparison to what's on Deja and TDAGARIM--and the "unreleased" album. So, actually, no--Vin's not as good of a writer, in my opinion. But Brian and Garret are great additions. Don't really know what Derrick adds or doesn't add--no comment there. I've been watching BN since the early 2000's and I do not mind Derrick at all, I like the sound and everything.

[zinrgy]

"Trees" is a better title, anyway, actually. And this version is too [better than the Daisy version that is]. You are a true Brand New fan.

Honestly, if Brand New break up, I'll be okay with it as long as Jesse Lacey keeps making music. Anyone got an mp3 of this?

[StoneyPerkLane]

once he starts screaming it turns into pure perfection.

[colorguardchicshs]

the song is titled "bought a bride", not "trees".

[eboy09]

obviously it wasnt titled that a year and a few months ago

[worldsattack]

Thank you. The description clearly states why it's listed as "Trees"...because this was the first time it was ever performed and it didn't have a title.

[yourbore]

watch out, here comes the name police! whooaaaaa!

[xia0me1mei]

beautiful

[420shortee]

this version is better than the album version.

[cincinate626]

lyrics are better on the album in my opinion

[ohitsgrace09]

ok so i saw jesse lacey solo and he never did once scream. jealous.

[crimsonx83]

So talented

[losteyesight]

God he's so hott

[blink182fan10]

Bought a Bride.

[Pandagraffiti]

October with Man. Orc.

[digita1sunset]

this song is called 'Brought a Bride' now on the new cd

[burntissueslikewoah]

love the way he yells/screams. awesome

<3

[shaolinkin]

you can tell he's really the product of jeff mangum and isaac brock in the way the song is solely guitar but not straight chords and its really a strongly emotional song.

[brokenbirthday]

By the way this is called 'bought a bride' i believe.

[GetOffMyNuts88]

Nov 4 with thrice, its gona be awesome.

[byuckert]

Lucky you..

[tellallyourfriends89]

Wow. Im goin to see em oct. 6 and cant wait to hear stuff as good as this live.

[mskathleen22]

beautful

[Scottieonfire]

1:49

i get chills every time.

[CokedOutCaroline]

Samesies dude

[AVDahl03]

this is quite literally the mot beautiful song i have ever heard.

[emilyshortcake]

what a beautiful, beautiful man

[gpg001]

he makes me gay

[SeanTMonty]

@gpg001 me too

[katty81690]

this song kind of reminds me of a brothel...ya know? she was feeling lonely, he bought a bride, a brick house with no children...c'mon jesse

[Nuentendu]

I am glad to see Jesse hasn't lost his glorious, godlike ability to scream.

1:50-2:25.

[jadis772]

I am actually in love with him too, and would have his babies. And Vincent too. I would soooo be their groupie...

[gcisneros18]

Oh my god grow up

[mskathleen22]

this guy is deep

[knifewrenchx]

I am actually in love with this man.

He's so talented :)

[r0flr0byn]

Please marry me, Jesse Lacey. <3

I don't know if I've ever seen/heard anyone SO utterly talented in my life.

[JessopDavinci]

Their teenage music helped me through school

[JessopDavinci]

Amazing Sarah, right?

[thereisnolight19]

oh man.

oh man.

i don't even know what to say..

i am blown away.

[mecantbreakdance]

I don't know how its possible to scream your fucking lungs out and somehow maintain a melody thats in key. It must be that whole god and devil thing raging inside him.

[NOAHcoustic]

I've actually been working at it, it's not too hard when you practice it and do it alot. I mean I'm not saying I sound anywhere near as amazing as jesse. But just practice makes perfect I guess. Either way, jesse is amazing.

[Brian12327]

eh, not about him it's about his friend for that albums name.

[pizza9873]

I love his voice!

[RBFF123]

Jesse is a god

[ozThusker]

very very solid new song, has elements of old, with a splash of the the new. It is there "intro" song, I expect most of the album to be much different from the last with this song being a bridge similar to the last 2 albums...

great way to pull the former in and get the new behind like always

[aabcdefghijake]

It won't be anything like the first two. They aren't in highschool anymore so they wont be writting songs about teenage agnst.

[Brian12327]

you mean their first 3?

Your favorite weapon, Deja, and Devil and God

[aabcdefghijake]

No, I mean the first two. Devil and God is way more mature, and clearly not about teenage agnst.

[davmcperson]

Yeah, TDAGARIM is pretty much about theology and morality, or a lack thereof, and how that affects people. Kinda not about teen angst...

[alchemyindex84]

cool... I'll look into fujifilm. I'm using a Kodak EasyShare Z812 IS... the picture quality is great but the sound quality blows.

[alchemyindex84]

what kind of camera did you use to take this... the quality is amazing!

[worldsattack]

Fujifilm Finepix S5000 - I got it three years ago, and it was old back then, too. I think it just kicked the bucket, but it was good to me. :)

[ConeyIslandLow]

did jesse wear the same shirt to every show on this tour? he definitely was wearing that in phoenix. and also in every video i've seen/.

[onlyforhockey]

I attended a little acoustic set before a huge show in Michigan and Jesse confirmed that Secret Window has no relation to the name

I guess people ask him that all the time though

[monkeychnky7]

every album written by lacey is purely amazing all of his song are so well put together.

he is so talented

[elaineDismissed]

Lacey writes such brilliant lyrics, The Devil and God took a while to grow on me but now I can't stop listening to it, it's so perfectly written.

[Alexxxrw]

same here

[oooArson]

comparing their albums is stupid because they're all radically different.

[loganlawlzoutloud]

agreed.

[blackfireINSANITY]

now she's got a brick house, there's no children in it.

This song reminds me of "Begotten" for some reason. Strange film. <3 Jesse. So brilliant.

[rjaafar]

hes playing this song in standard tuning, he usually does all his stuff half step down...

[mogs9999]

nope fav weapon and deju are 1/2 step down, devil and god is standard

[erkiam35]

So I have listened to the Band version of this about 100 times always blowing this one off, I was making a huge mistake. Does anyone have an MP3 of this? please message me.

[chicity89]

where can i download this??

[gorhamics]

Excellent quality!

[crucifymeperfect]

I absolutely adore the lyrics to this song. "Cars are little blood cells, we are oxygen; city is the airways, suburbs appendages" is just beautiful. The sound reminds me a lot of Sowing Season which I wasn't crazy about at first but it grew on me and I think this will grow on the fans. Especially when the full band gets behind it and they get the CD out.

[Jakesbn]

The guitar is really similar to Sowing Season...same first chord

[crucifymeperfect]

Oh good call, I had to go back and listen to Sowing Season to hear that but, yea. Still, I enjoy the song.

[PeakConditionNate]

Speaking of Sowing Season growing on you . . .

I just watched the movie Secret Window again and the book that Johnny Depp's character supposedly "plagiarized" was called "Sowing Season" by John Shooter.

Crazy.

It added so much more value to the lyrics to me drawing some parallels with the stories. I recommend looking into it.

[devoured1]

mhm. people said that about Sowing Season too. and some of the demos and bla bla bla. Don't listen if you dont like it, but more importantly shut your mouth.

[jakejhgraham]

love brand new... but this song is shit

[happyhourNZ]

"llwilliamsll (2 weeks ago)

Marked as spam Reply I'm sure if Jesse Lacey took a shit and called it art, the majority of you would eat it up. "

hahaha that was funny man - so true . . lol

[Tyler0was0here]

Beautiful.

[brandnewshoesfool]

they have created a new genre of music. and they have grown up so much from my favorite weapon and even deja.

i can say im proud to be growing up with them.

i cant wait for the new album. im still not over how amazing the devil and god is.

[dFORdarryl]

right on man.

An honor to grow up listening to a band such as brand new.

[LaureNic03]

oh i think so too.

the devil and god is epic i wonder what lacey will come up with next...

[Tyler0was0here]

Seriously, if he tops that album, then Lacey's got to seriously be one of the great music geniouses of our time, of course, he's already one of the best lyricists I've ever heard.

[CunnyFunt333]

HaHa yeah that makes loads of sense he's sold about 1 million albums which says he's done well but get a grip if you think he's one of the best. Ya fuckin Arsehole.

[Fleshymeatball]

are you calling this shit? just curious. im not trying to talk trash or stick up for anything, just simply wondering what you meant.

[Abh1289]

I'm a huge brand new fan, but I have to admit this made me laugh. Because it's kind of true... haha.

[DakotaIsAProAtLife]

Jesse Lacey dives deep in to his music and feels every song he plays/sings. I don't know how it effects you, but it gives me this very strange feeling for every song he plays. I like it, its very differnt and Im sure im not the only one who feels this way. You do not understand it as well as we do, this is fine. Just don't knock us for having deeper understanding. Thanks

[PrawdehFish]

you can say the same about the fans of any artist

[evanhowson]

unreal song, cant wait for the new album

[devoured1]

ZOMG @ screaming he sounds SO good

[chaseoffyourdemons]

ill never figure out what it is about jesses voice that i love so much. its just honest, you can feel that he means it. call it emo, i dont care... i call it powerful music.

[Fleshymeatball]

Hell yeah! lol...someone once decribed his voice as brutal and unforgiving. You can almost hear the pain in a select few of his songs, but yeah...not only is he a lyrical genius but he can sing those lyrics with a passion.

[domlococokills]

of course brandnew has never once made a single bad song. they always top their last album greatly and the reason why is cuz they take the time to progress and not rush their music and that is why they make such amazing stuff. i gurantee the new album will be the most amazing music you ever hear

[johnsonmufc]

agreed.

[bowloficecream422]

what about welcome to bangkok, its not too great :X but the sounds kind of tight

[devoured1]

i second that. every word.

[shaunwhitelove]

i need a date set in stone.

i need this album, as do all the BN fans.

they need to atleast give the month of release :/

is anyone else hoping it has the same feel as deja, as well as devil and god, but more on the deja side? its what im hoping for.

[kingherod123]

Either a Deja sound or Devil and God sound would be good, but knowing Brand New I bet that their coming out with a brand new sound.

[notyourmartyr]

I'm not hoping anything. I'm just pretty sure that however it sounds, I'll like something about it.

[Jimskileeski]

jesses scream has the most spine tingling effect. gold

[sbenin00]

i realllllly hope it you're right TKOdawk. That would make the first few months of 2009 probably some of the best few months ever for me since tbs's new album i think comes out March 31. My two favourite bands in the entire world. Now THAT is somethin pretty special.

[TKOdawk]

I talked to jesse after the coulumbus concert and he said the new cd would be out sometime in the early months of 09

[xDannyboy32x]

i'm in love. i really am.

[Cool2behen1]

does any one know when we can expecting a new cd

?????????? this song is amazing

[Jakesbn]

I think it is "bought a bride" because the song's title on their set list is "Bride"

[ryanxdavey]

I think it may be "bought her pride" because he's singing about a girl and I'm pretty sure I clearly heard him say "pride" and not "bride".

[KCVolcom]

Agreed, man.

[starlitelily]

ok someone needs to make an mp3 of this video because its the best sound of all of them i've heard. i really love this new song.

[Gwojcik]

hahah wow just trying to clarify.

[Gwojcik]

songs called brickhouse....

[worldsattack]

Sorry for mislabeling your song, Jesse.

Oh wait...

[HockeyFanatic24]

yeah, im also pretty sure its called brickhouse.

[xsomexcrazyxmofox]

it doesnt have a name...some people just call it brickhouse

[Vin2241]

Yeah its gotta be bought a bride.

[catherinemustdie]

butter bride!

[worldsattack]

I swear that is what he was saying!

[toolongawake1]

i think its actually "he bought a bride"
