Poison the well - nerdy acoustic

[butterfly8222]

this song has to be the most amazing song lyrically i have ever heard

[Music6982]

@djnorge, There are so many amazing things to experience in life before you let it pass by. Before I go, I want to travel the world with a band and I'm not going to let that dream go until the end. Don't let yourself down over that one girl. If she's not the one, you can still always wait for a better one to come around that truly loves you back. There are always more opportunities ahead of you, don't let one thing get you down!

[TrollingYouGood]

This is aweful, should have left this song alone

[djnorge]

I just told the girl I love how I feel, but she doesnt feel the same way back and only want to stay friends. I feel sick, obnoxious, pathetic and terrible. Love doesnt always go both ways.

I had close to zero self-esteem and now it just went negative. I see myself as an ugly patchetic half-norwegian/half-Iranian 17 yo boy, with aspergers and being a complete social fail who can't do or accomplish anything in life. I want to kill myself now...

But don't worry, I won't do it... yet. Fuck My Life!

[larrybob141]

@djnorge calm down man, we are who we are for a reason. Don't let that kinda stuff bring you down buddy! In the big picture of life, ur not alone and you also arnt much different than anyone else. No one is perfect man :) not even that girl u liked!

[FatSpliffsofWeed]

@djnorge yeah dog, girls aren't attracted to guys who think of themselves like that. you have to love yourself in order to be able to love anyone else. if you feel different and isolated from everyone you need to embrase that and come to terms with thats just who you are and love yourself. you will be suprised but people pick up on that and want to be around people like that cuz really thats what everyone is trying to accomplish themselves...

[dammdoriaan]

@lovezpoptartz i dont have an ipod touch but could you email it? its dorianupinthis@gmail.com , gracias friend

[jepicondyle]

band is from pandora, singer is george alexiades

[setad1]

not PTW

[ofeki23]

"When I'm not with you I feel lesser alone"

I don't get it.

[roxx0n]

@ofeki23 either it's meant like Even though i'm not with you or like i feel lesser, alone.

that's my interpretation

[Wuddupnyucca]

@ofeki23 theres a comma there, he feels lesser and alone.

[muyumii]

<3 diviis

[dammdoriaan]

@lovezpoptartz could you send it to my Gmail? that would be gnar man ! its dorianupinthis@gmail.com

[kowtpr187]

this does not work well acoustic.

[VailOfMist]

So fucking beautiful

[dammdoriaan]

Download link?

[lovezpoptartz]

@dammdoriaan If your ipod is jailbroken, you can download it from there. I could email you it if you'd like.

[sweetzb909]

i'm infatuated with this cover.. i haven't listened to 'metal' since my high school years(05-07) and it feels so nice to hear this song again to remind me of all i've lost and how happy i am to hold the one i love and still get lost in her eyes. and this version is one i can show to my girl... let's see if she can appreciate it like i have.

[CassiK24]

<3

[toridoesntknow]

i remember i wrote all these lyrics in a note to my ex boyfriend lol aww :)

[roxx0n]

@toridoesntknow i wrote it to my ex girlfriend, she did not recognized its beauty.

[CelebrityMugshot]

words only love could genuinley inspire. i want to meet this girl.

[nthani]

@CelebrityMugshot can u imagine what this girl looked like or just how good she was to em.. i want a girl who inspire's me this much!!!!!!

[butterfly8222]

the lyrics to this song are beautiful

[crookylufc]

beautiful. gorgeous. stunning.

[TheSamoanElvis]

Who covered this song? This isn't Poison The Well

[mcgrathryanpnj]

does anybody know if this is an acoustic version played by the band or is this a cover? otherwise it's very beautiful.

[TheIceKilll]

@mcgrathryanpnj its a cover lol,

[mcgrathryanpnj]

@TheIceKilll oh lol that would have been cool if this was an acoustic version by ptw instead of a cover. beautiful version still regardless.

[CocksureJudy]

fucking awesome.

[Kaboomitsandie]

This song is by far amazing.

My boyfriend showed me this song and ever since I feel like it's our song. :)

[LynnDBlake]

nerdy is really good song. but it isn't hardcore.

[aeve97]

Makes me want to scream.

[wtf02091992]

This is literally my favorite song ever.

[TheNavigatorTV]

You guys are idiots about the whole lesser alone thing. Jeffrey's lyrics often have problems with the grammer and flow not always making the most sense being that he's least part hispanic and from Florida, odds are english is a 2nd language. Hence odd choices in some wording throughout their entire catalogue. You're overthinking it way to hard....when you are in love or infatuation...even when that person isn't in your presence you feel less alone. At least flo92xc gets it.

[TheNavigatorTV]

The only other way I see to interpret that still reinforces it being a love song in saying that he only feels like something more when she's with him.

[JR1840]

oh memories of being a fucked up teenager...

[flo92xc]

well, i still think its a love song. that line "when im not with you i feel lesser alone" could also mean he feels lesser alone because he simply knows that shes there...

and to be infatuated matches the feelings when youre really in love.

[Pembr0ke]

hey guys check out "Bowwoo" youtube account great videos on there and dont forget to subscribed

[banshek7]

@Pembr0ke no.



[destinationuknown85]

Is this really a love song..."Infatuation is the state of being completely carried away by unreasoned passion or love; addictive love. Usually, one is inspired with an intense but short-lived passion or admiration for someone.

Infatuation is a common emotion characterized by unrealistic expectations of blissful passion without positive relationship growth or development"

Also this line "When I'm NOT with you I feel lesser alone" In love surely it would be feel less alone when I'm WITH you.

[destinationuknown85]

@destinationuknown85 Maybe about a nerdy kid having a major crush on a girl he will never get... I used to listen to this thinking about a girl i loved, but now i don't think it is actually a love song. That line "When I'm NOT with you I feel lesser alone", means he feels more alone with the person than without. Think about it :)

[D1str1ct]

@destinationuknown85 when he sings it he sings it like....i feel lesser, alone. not lesser alone

[voiceofthesoul0]

Awesome interpretation, needs a little tightening up, but overall great.

[nileakanile]

i completely get this song. fuck my life.why did i leave her,.

[whereismymindblah]

time slows down when you look at me.

[andrew12398]

[parasutube1]

[tokyojazzful]

[Erika12203]

Thanks everyone for the comments! I had no idea i would get so much recognition! :) So wedding being on 10/10/10, (54 days away) we have decided, that the original version of the song is what we will be playing as we are introduced for the first time :) Cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[francmeister420]

@Erika12203

that is pretty fuckin righteous. 

[garuloves07]

@Erika12203 SWEET!!!

[sg1parasite]

@Erika12203 dam i wish i can see it happen. Awsome have fun

[davisonc1]

[gothicpunks11286]

Poison the rocks!

[ProjectXeyu]

great idea, the record is not tight tho, i really got into the vibe for a few seconds.but those error kept me away from getting really into it.

[1twiztidbitch]

one of my favorite ptw songs <3 <3

[TheHypnotoad420]

where can i get this song?

[oriolmsn]

Lol, amazing

[johnjosephlaw]

This awesome. Is this actually Poison the Well or an acoustic cover by a fan?

[ipseadamovos]

as far as metal-core acoustic songs, this just isn't quite as good as "blue" by remembering never. don't get me wrong I love nerdy and ptw, but blue is just really damn good.

[belowtheforgotten]

@ipseadamovos remembering never " last night alone" off she looks good in red is cool and a song / instrumental by "nodes of ranvier " called - "its going to be ok" maybe like those , check em

[bigpolin50]

Original Version = Brutal

Acoustic version = Beautiful

This song transcends all musical tastes, everyone i have played this song for has in some way loved it! No mater what their musical tastes were. Kudos to Erika for having it as the wedding song.

[OVINESQUIK]

Beautyfull. I love them.

[DuduhXc]

What a fuckin version dude, awesome, congrats !!!!

[somethinggh]

can anyone give me a link to download this?

[Jodhy123]

you cant deny that lyricaly its probably one of the best love songs ever written

[WorthMoreDead17]

I hate metal, But I love this song merely for its beautiful lyrics. Unbelievable.

[ProminentReborn]

@Jodhy123 unbelievably sad.

[Piper474]

@Jodhy123 i know

[sulehjaames]

@Jodhy123 i couldnt agree

[12Oc7ock]

@Jodhy123 I def agree

[brianreading]

@Jodhy123: Lyrically, this is not special. It's pretty straightforward, like as if someone was simply speaking to someone. It's not very poetic in the least.

[D1str1ct]

@brianreading thats the whole point, its simple and to the point, like if someone WAS speaking to someone and explain how this song isnt poetic?

[MrKingGnome]

@Jodhy123 Idk, it's mostly a lot of cliches.

[D1str1ct]

@MrKingGnome yeh but in this day an age we live for cliches hahah

[FiHuvWix]

who else hears deftones in this acoustic version?

his voice sounds pretty similar. Fireeee

[TheSamoanElvis]

@FiHuvWix You're fucking high if you think this sounds like Chino. I would slap you if I were there. I love this band, but you just insulted Deftones.

[TheOrderlyGuy32]

@TheSamoanElvis perfectly said, i dont believe in keyboard warriors, but if that wasn't already pointed out i think i would have just dedicated my life to finding the man behind that nonsense, so thanks for saving the trouble, again well said

[FiHuvWix]

@TheSamoanElvis lol granted their voices are quite different, but I just hear somewhat of a deftones vibe in his voice.

[FiHuvWix]

@TheSamoanElvis also yes i'm very high lol

[HobbitTeaLeaf]

@Jodhy123 i find the lyrics to be too emo ad simplistic ...well it agrees with the style of music they play ...simple :p

[HillBillyHeroinKills]

wow, this is so bad. But the guitar work wasnt that bad.

[maplerrr]

Nice shit

[RerunSteveO]

My favorite song ever. This is such a bad ass version.

[xGamezombie]

fucking perfect, gives me chills everytime<3

[RupertBaer]

I love it. :)

[Erika12203]

So since nerdy is one of our more favorite hardcore songs, and impossible to slowdance to, this one the acoustic version is goin to be our wedding song

[thekidwithdog]

@Erika12203 you could always hardcore dance to it haha

[punkrocker1208]

@Erika12203 that is fucking dope!!!!

[Jarlaxle1157]

@Erika12203 my girlfriend's name is also erika. spelled the same way. and she loves this song. lol just letting you know.

[ijurcough]

@Erika12203 FUCK YES! :)

[myeahok]

this rendition is so 1998. Good year

[texasatan]

@myeahok "The Opposite..." was released in 99.

[bhellboy88]

like a bitch this acoustic

[sophie7x]

i really fucking love this

[mariolopez420]

wow gay

[whatacunningstunt]

Go fuck yourself, this is perfection.

[ericjamesrobb]

sounds kinda like darrel from glassjaw lol good shit

[anewfoundthrice]

awesome got chills at the breakdown

[robotsforever]

That was cool.

[Gogohax]

nerds rule.

[mydarksidez]

wow...this is Nerdy? O_O

[Jodhy123]

Right.

[AdamIsBlue]

That was really fucking good. shit. im amazed at how you were still aple to capture all of the angst and emotion that goes into this song

[berba3]

great song

[mergedintonature]

I love how people are giving criticism like this guy is the one doing the song.

[alejandroDxC]

que hp tema tan CHIMBA!!!!!!!!!!!

[svnddlysnsts]

its pretty easy to play once you find the first harmonic note...i figured it out in like ten minutes...but i can't remember how the whole song goes, just that it's d-tuned

[greendethking]

Does anyone know if this can be bought or downloaded?

[ashleybby123]

Is there an mp3?

[ashleybby123]

.....i want this on a CD. now.

[Dragonlegs15]

I know, right?

[Dragonlegs15]

i love this better than the orig.

[Killthemusic45]

wrong.

[Dragonlegs15]

that's right.

[PowerWheel]

wow. very good. nice vocal harmonies. needs to be touched up a bit however.

[ar3cb4rdw1n]

Just a little constructive criticism, make sure both guitars are on rhythm when playing the rhythm parts. It sounded really sloppy. Other than that, it was okay.

[canibuswp]

i was actually having low expectations for this version but kudos for fucking nailing it, good job. And it does remind me of A perfect circles acoustic sessions

[Arsenique82]

I love this song, I love this band and now I love you as well. Do more!

[zzzfirefox]

this is pure coke, i like it even better then the original, mind you i only ever liked the first 30sec of this song off that album. Having said that i actually prefer their newer stuff.

[K1THKANAN]

this is good man. damn good, i've been listening to this band since i was a kid and this is the best cover of them i've ever heard. you got talent

[joncarr]

wow.... I remember when I was in 10th grade, everyone pretty much covered this song. This might be the best and original cover I heard in a long time. Great job.

[D3v71n]

reminds me of tool. i dont know why.

[dudtube]

I guess it's the vocals

[BeliefsAndObsessions]

pretty good, the guitars could be tighter tho

[FueledByCommunism]

My only complaint: You left part of the rhythm out :( Other than that, super solid, great vocals, great cover! Love it man. Just listen to the rhythm a little bit closer, and you'll realize what I mean

[bettersnowboarder13]

this is so great! and your voice reminds me of the singer of muse a little bit btw

[Someguyproductions]

Fucking Awesome Cover 8D

[pissdrunx23]

fuckin sick man should put your face and strings on the screen tho but nice

[mk1tiger]

Anywhere i can DL this? Well done man!

[andrew12398]

This is awesome, keep up the good work.

[greeksdorok]

Really awsome cover

[guytch]

You cover is awesome, very creative interpretation! well done.

[FallingDownStory]

WOW!!

[XHARTMANX]

[12Oc7ock]

[bmoore8291]

I love you(:

[12Oc7ock]

love u beautiful ;)

[greendethking]

Is there anywhere I can go to download this?

[JamesTheFiddler]

hey good job guy. did you use the electric guitar tabs or did u revised it

[Whiteavenger7]

guitar parts dont line up sometimes but not fucking bad at all. Most people can't appreciate a good rendition because its different, making them narrow minded dipshits. Keep up the good work.
