Lol, i've been watching this for a couple days now, its endlessly entertaining... simply the worst.... its best when you read the lyrics along with it :)
I saw them live and he held my hand while singing this . And later i got his autograph and he hugged me cause it was my birthday ! Best birthday of my life !!!!-3
One of the few bands that's better live than they are on the album. And then album is already flawless. Do yourself a favor and see Paper Tongues live.
Bringing up Religion at all in regards to this video or band is just retarded. It's music made by musicians. That's it. Shut up and enjoy the song :-)
@chosen1Imcoming you are so rude!!!! Aswan is a mighty man of God! "If God is for us who can be against us" You need to GROW UP and stop being ignorant
@Flipz5447 Yeah man, unfortunately, most people on Youtube don't know theory so I try to refrain from putting things into those terms. But yeah, majority is I, IV, V...in some fashion or another. Although modern rock typically makes use of the iii (Metallica especially) and then eventually vii and resolve to the I. good stuff dude!
@kraftboy This version only has a few chords because the original recording is layered and incorporates the SEVEN members of the band as a whole....sort of difficult to add that all in an acoustic version. The lyrics and vocals are the core of this song anyways.... and btw, most of the shit on the air now contains 4 chords....so much better right? I hope you're a talented musician that will wow us all, but until then....shut your hole.
THIS SUCKSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!! THIS SUCKS GIGANTIC DONKEY DICK!!!! YOU PEOPLE WHO SAID THEY WERE GOOD SOUND LIKE THE STUPIDEST PEOPLE IN THIS UNIVERSE!@@#$%^&*&^%$#$%
@kraftboy@kraftboy This statement doesn't make sense. "two cords does not a song make'? It would if you said: two chords don't make a song. But it does. You just listened to it, and it was amazing.

It is sooooo nice to finally see some modern musicians with actual talent. These guys are the real deal. I think that they have become my new favorite band. I think that they actually sound even better unplugged.
I can't wait until they come to Tampa, I will definitely be there!
heard them for the first time on Bubba the love sponge today......not bad,They at least have talent....they do sound a little like train but with their own groove.....I'm becoming a fan...
@cloneKev How about you take that negetive shit to someone elses video. No one needs that shit dude. These guys make the best music i've heard in a while. So fuck off fag
Jparteemusic. I'm sure your obscure meaningless babble will continue to illuminate the jealous idiot you are. Only a small person would make such a comment. I'm sure these guys will be performing when you grow up, which may be a long way away...
forget you and your over produced garbage. saw you play live tonight and it was a load of shit. sounded like crap and upset the hell out of me. Last time I defend a pop surrounded band. I hope randy jackson came enough for you to sustain your careers because your live show is a hunk of dog dick. piss on your performance and Civil Twilight is 100000 times the band you are. I hope your van breaks down and you lose your tour. you suck, and fuck you.

its really hard to have that much energy if ur not supported by the whole band and amps and all the sound. this just shows that these guys are the real deal. this band is going to go far
These guys wail. I heard them on Bubba The Love Sponge today. He was givin them mad props. Bubba nailed it when he called them a "breath of fresh air".
This is nuts to see. I used to go to church with Aswan (the lead singer). He led our youth group for a little while, and was very close with my brother (I think they lived together for a brief time.) Now he's making it big? I just got a text from my sister saying he was on MTV this morning.
@countryboy0033 No, and neither is he. He's a non-denominational Christian (which is honestly kinda it's own denomination..). He's half Egyptian half Irish also, for those that were curious as to his race. Interesting mix, eh?
the lead singer sounds like the lead singer from nonpoint. which is awsome considering nonpoint is badass. hell, i bet you he listens to nonpoint as well. they sorta have the same vocals and vibe going on. both great band.
Notice how the little blonde dude looks like a large hobbit next to the others. Just look for a second. The guy sitting down has long legs. The singer is way taller and the little one is standing straight up. Love the song! LOL.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
"ghost of freddy mercury"??? sorry freddy could sing,not just yell and scream.are you,what like,12 yrs old?this song is typical of todays pop-no melody at all in the vocal lines.3 out of 10 stars
@kirkles66 Agreed that no one can be Freddie Mercury, but I saw these guys live in S.F. at the Regency Ballroom and he can sing his a** off. He hit some sick notes. This was probably some morning drive time radio show he got up at 6am to sing for
En bon québécois.....colisse de bonne toune.....encore plus de unplugged avec autant de qualité !!! Une soirée acoustic avec ce trio là...n'Importe quand !!! bienvenue à Qc..
this best thing about this band is there is no effects done to the lead singers voice. very original band i hope to see them go big soon! love this band!
