@MErickson11 actually no, as a singer band style, and choir style, it gives you saliva. for he screams he does it can cause dryness (trust me on that) so the extra spit keeps his throat from drying up.
Why do they do acoustic performance? i think it's bcoz if ben gets his distorted guitar plugged in then this cafe would turn out to be a big mess!! still, just my opinion
I'm getting really sick of people dissing Nick Coyle in the comments to these vids. I'll be the first to admit that Ben is an amazingly talented musician, but I also enjoy many of Nick's songs, his newer stuff as well as his work with Aaron and Mark in Lifer, years ago. He may not be as famous, but there's still enough around on YouTube for you to check out (Lifer, Drama Club) and form an opinion instead of just blindly pointing fingers at the fact that he wears his damn hat sideways.
@sweetnsassycutie29 The only ones he's released to the public is his fear of flying, the dark, heights and driving He also said there are several others but never elaborated on that matter.
@HeroOnDayOff I think its because of his many phobias to calm himself down.... by the way: even with a gum he sings way better than most other artists...
I love his music, and his voice. Technically this is acoustic, but I like it when they drop a chord and sing softly. I remember he only did it a few times with Diary of Jane. But he made it sound just as badass in a soft acoustic way.
@GTOTechnology Ben said that he plans to continue with the band. And he writes the majority of the songs, so the sound and feel will still be there, but with a different guitarist and bassist.
@Aquita17 They were fired a while ago cos they put up a shitty version of blow me away and another song without bens permission, if i recall correctly.
@Aquita17 Yeah, Ben fired them because they remixed Blow Me Away, a song Ben wrote, and released it without him knowing about it. So he e-mailed them telling them they were to leave the band. It sucks, but he had a good reason to. Every member of a band needs to know what's going on with their music. I'm in a band myself and if one of my band members took a song I wrote and changed things and released it, I'd be pissed off myself and I'd kick them out as well.
@thakrazykid24 The remix is horrible. Seriously, the girl sings like she's trying to get a record contract with an R&B label. You can't mix a heavy song with someone who's trying to cover a Beyonce song.
@chab77 That's because it's unnatural. He has a pretty good voice and the ability to sing live the notes he lays down in the studio...but this whole acoustic set is full of obvious vocal pitch correction. Seriously, listen closely to his voice with this in mind. His voice is still being recorded through a microphone and fixed up for the video.
I don't believe all this crap about fiering mark and aaron, at least not as long it is confirmed by an official source like ben himself (I don't think I would believe a statement of Hollywood Records). but yeah, that remix of blow me away was really unecessary since that female voice doesn't really fit into that song anyway. I love the original, but this was just too much
@Neo2234 i thought he only fired aaron and mark but not the drummer but anyway it doesnt really matter as long as he gets new people who can play the songs because as far as i can tell ben was the only one who wrote anything anyway
q tema la puta madreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee rockkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@JonEatsDirt NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO as you can see i am unhappy about this
@BeCool369 Many singers chew gum while performing so they wont get dry in theire mouth, his chewing just happens to be extremly visable, even more so when he does the "real" version of a song and uses growls *nods nods* .. And he most likely likes his chewing gum aswell o.O
He sounds just like he does on a recorded track! Thats why I love rock and metal, because the singers don't hide behind auto-tuned mics, the sing for real! Music is like candy, throw out the rappers!
his talent is only exceeded by his vanity, YOU STILL OWE ME A SHOW BEN, thx to the exies and theory of a deadman for stepping up that night in detroit at harpos
