  • voice not force..

  • laden=dealing ;)

  • Thumbs up if the movie Damage brought you here!

  • This might be cheesy but when the slide of "And I felt love, again." came on I got goosebumps. This song is so gorgeous and that part is haunting.

  • yes about a car crash wife dying, they were arguing before it happened...

  • Can i buy this Manna you speak of in the US? lol

  • Also, to the creator of the video, it is actually saying, "I'm laden with a selfish fear, etc.." Laden means burdened; encumbered; loaded down. So, these lyrics are, in fact, accurate :)

  • For everyone who is confused about this... it is INDEED saying, "Manna is a hell of a drug". Do some research, people. Manna is the name of an edible substance that God provided for the Israelites during their travels in the desert according to the Bible. Also, it is referenced to mean, "any divine or spiritual food," "any sudden or unexpected help, advantage, or aid to success," and if you use the old spelling, it refers directly to a higher power or benevolent force found in a person's head.

  • This song is about his pregnant wife dying in a fatal car crash. In his lyrics he talks about him trying to convince himself she's alive when she died in the crash, how he cried when he knew she was dead, restless nights because he's traumatized, and feeling selfish because he could have died and glad he didn't. "I could tell it was over from the curtains that hung from your neck." That basically means he knew she was dead when she was put in that white bed/bag paramedics put dead people in.

  • omg..

  • perfection.

  • i thiiiink i finally figured out what he said.. cuz Manna is a hell of a drug does NOT make any sense.. maybe he says.. "after you found out, man he is a hell of a drug"

  • Mania is a high narcodic to treat bipolar people just so u know n can kill people if u od

    There u go man

  • @codyc00lwhip hey bro I dont think hes talking about mana helping him takea dump...I think hes reffering to the mana from the bible...You know like the mana god sent to the people of isreal and moses!?! Its also said to be a medicine for the eyes so maybe hes saying mana cures his blindness to the world. Maybe im wrong just sayin

  • @codyc00lwhip Yeah but hes talking about the mana from religion. Not about taking smooth dumps

  • Thank you.

  • I found that Andy said this in an interview:

    "The way that song is written is, in the first half I'm basically just describing touring and kind of my relationship with God and my wife," he explains. "And the end is about this dream I had about us being in the van and getting sideswiped and hit by a huge truck. I dreamed my wife was pregnant at the time and I lost her. But this life was inside her, and in some weird way I was able to celebrate that there was some new life coming with one ending."

  • @rawrjustblink7 thanks. that really helps. please people make this the top comment. so when did the van get hit.

  • Damage brought me here

  • cannot stop listening to this song. Typically I only listen to classical music, but there is something very moving about this song.

  • This song makes my heart feel like bursting in the best possible way.

  • Comment removed

  • The 45 dislikes were by deaf people who were so distraught they couldn't witness perfection. :(

  • im pretttty sure its im dealing with a selfish fear?

  • @HamsterCorn22 It's "veiny with a selfish fear" according to the booklet in the album.

  • @krielly00 oh well. then its probably that :~)

  • goosebumps

  • i typed the words "the song i need to hear" and this was the first one to come i hadn't heard. it's pretty goddamn perfect.

  • I'm from Manchester. Who wants to touch me?

  • I love how this song sounds and how it is written. Is there any other songs that sounds like this???

  • In case you have not yet been told (because I'm too lazy to check the comments :P) "Laden" is a real word meaning "heavily loaded or weighed down". So "I'm laden with a selfish fear" works and that's honestly what I hear. Also, I just looked at the sidebar and found out where I first heard this song...Gossip Girl. I am so happy I figured that out and now it won't bother me. So I had to rant about it. Sorry :P Awesome video. I think you got a lot right. Love the song :)

  • I think it's "invading with a selfish fear".

  • @Jaysun325

    I agree, I've always thought it was veiny at the start and in the middle.

  • Dan and Serena ♥

  • I always thought it was "veiny with a selfish fear" (I also thought at the beginning it was "veiny to the point of tears") ...that's how i sing it in my car anyway lol ...this song is amazing.

  • WHO THE HECK WOULD DISLIKE THIS VIDEO?

  • @TacoBananaMode Idiots... Love this song... :)

  • @TacoBananaMode

    I would, and did.

  • @CrimsonToast /watch?v=RFZrzg62Zj0

  • @TacoBananaMode a real orchestra playing in manchester or something lol

  • @TacoBananaMode people that cannot quite come to the realisation that this man looked death straight in the eyes and wrote a song about it.

  • I love manchester orchestra, this song always seems to make me cry, especially the lyrics "so i prayed for what I thought were angels ended up being ambulances"

  • I don't cry from this song but I know it's damn beautiful

  • do you know how long i have looked fo r this song now i finally found it!!!!!!!!!!

  • i think its leaving with a selfish fear..

  • My favorite manchester orchestra song

  • I remember the first time I heard this song and read the lyrics, I literally froze. So deep, so sad, so loving so much that I cant even explain in words, Just BEAUTIFUL.

  • This song gives my the chills everytime i listen to it. My favorite song atm

  • I'm all fine and dandy..

  • this song makes me realize everything i need to fix about my self

  • @getgo57 I know the feeling

  • @getgo57 I know the feeling

  • Still one of my favourite songs...so beautiful.

  • Does anyone know what Album this is???

  • @liquifyism Mean Everything To Nothing

    

  • gossip girl brought me here, looooong time ago~

  • Its waiting not laden.

  • I often listen to this when i think of my past

  • This song makes me feel actually human every time I hear it...True if you don't cry then you have no soul but physically crying is not necessary we all cry inside..

  • I get chills everytime

  • this is about his wife and kid dying in a car crash :(

  • 44 people don't have souls!!!!!!!

  • @TheReadySetRocksLove  I thought it was gingers that had no souls???

  • ITs I'm laying with a selfish fear, its an accent I think

  • @12pimpinez

    im pretty sure its veiny with a selfish fear. lol. idk.

  • It almost sounds like he says "hanging with a selfish fear"

  • I think it's about his wife hanging herself. He was shaken it off in the front seat because maybe she was talking about how depressed she was. He wanted to hear her sound fine, but she was too sad. Then, the curtains were around her neck. Thats what I get from it.

  • I don't think I'll get tired of this song <3

  • this actually happened to the guy in the band, well to his wife anyway, or whatever she was.

  • if u really listen and read the lyrics, im guessing its about the guy who couldnt get drugs out of his life, and how he ended up in his own little world and completely ignored his friends and family, including the wife (im assuming its the wife) . So he was so into his world that he did not realize how much he hurt his wife and at one point, she killed herself out of dissappointment and anger. Its a really sad song. and he did not kill himself. the wife did, while carrying his child.

  • @duchessFSZ They had a car accident and she died i think

  • @KilljoyVideoGaming naaah...i think the wife hung herself. but anyway its a really sad song. actually i first heard it on gossip girl ;p never knew it had such a deep meaning.

  • @duchessFSZ Cant bielive such a stupid TV series (sorry but it is) picked up a song like this... anyways at 2:02 "I was shaking in the fron seat" makes me think of a car accident

  • Wow it's been hella time, since i listened this song. Still brings Goosebumps :)

  • If every sad, heart-breaking moment I had in my life was accompanied by Andy Hull singing. I would make my life a very sad one.

  • awsome song but very confusing

  • Comment removed

  • @MegaSuperheroguy ...i don't think he killed himself at the end?

  • @MegaSuperheroguy well everyone else knew

  • i heard this on Damage with stone cold Steve Austin

  • @MegaSuperheroguy he just wanted to explain the part with the "manna", smartass

  • . The story goes that God gave them "manna" more than enough food to survive, but He required faith. If the led group took more food than they needed just for that day then the food would spoil...and they continued to take more than they needed... enough wasnt never enough for them....

  • I'm dealing with a selfish fear

    To keep me up another restless night

    Another restless night

  • This song really touches my heart =']

  • 2:12 the lyrics are "Veiny with a selfish fear" =)

  • oh okay haha. my bad

  • nah it's manna not money, its greek mythological terms as Manna is some type of food from heaven I'm pretty sure.

  • Oh yeah its "Money is a hell of a drug."

  • 42 caate rare

  • It's laden by the way. The word fits there and it sounds like it, so I'm sure that's it.

  • gossip girl brought me here :)

  • it sounds like he says "would you say?" not "what'd you say?" at 1:33.

  • Manna...greek mythology..food/nector from heaven

  • @FUverymuchthanks not greek, It was the food God supplied the Israelites while they were in the wilderness

  • it was in gossip girl :D

  • oh bwhohohohohoh its about poop...you fucking children go listen to adam or gaga.

  • This song never fails to give me chills. Beautiful.

  • INVADED WITH A SELFISH FEAR.

  • I think it's "Veiny with a selfish fear"

  • 2:12 is "Invading with a selfish fear."

  • Reasonably great song, good lyrics to a tragic story. then the ending just....c'mon. QQ

  • He sounds like kermit or some muppet voice, jus' sayin'

  • hahahahahhahah this song is about a grown man being constipated..........awk

  • @illfaptothis hahaha now I can't take this song seriously

  • I think it is veiny, it sounds alot like it. I also read it somewhere.

  • if you don't cry, you have NO SOUL.

  • @Mr4Dank2Tree0 42 people don't have souls.

  • @Mr4Dank2Tree0 I didnt cry. But then again, im a ginger.

  • @Mr4Dank2Tree0 you have the gayest account name ever lmao. fag

  • @MishaaaahMonster

    It's "Invading with a selfish fear"

  • Andy Hull does it how its supposed to be done. Well.

  • This song always makes me want to cry. It's so moving

  • invading with a selfish fear?

  • this is a groovy song

  • i think its dealing... im dealing with a selfish fear?? it works

  • It might be veiny, not laden

  • View my channel for unsimilar music but huge fans of manchester orchestra pleaaaaaaase

  • this makes me cry, every time. and im a guy who doesn't cry, ever

  • alright i have i guess for the lyrics. not laden, 'laid in' with a selfish fear

  • @toob94 laden would be the better word, means almost the same thing, but to be burdened by it. Seems to make more sense within the context.
