  • I know when I saw this performed live I couldn't sing along I could just stand there and cry. It was kind of a shame to see people smiling and dancing and singing along without feeling the impact.

  • Powerful.

  • Better than the original in my opinion.

  • beautiful story............ brilliant !!

  • You truly want to see the power of this song...watch him perform it live... the raw emotion is intense...and emotion is not something most people associate with electronic music...

  • :( i miss you dad.

  • AMAZING 

  • Tom Shear posts some funny shit on Facebook.

  • although your pain is over, mine has just begun.. ( i like the original better than this mix) still an amazing song

  • this must be my favorite synth-pop band

  • @GJDKAW then apparently you have no idea what it feels like to have a parent commit suicide

  • you can see ive made various comments over the last year or so...I also find it ironic that this song was posted only days before my fathers suicide

  • This song is f^cking powerful... Suicide is a shitty way to go. Miss you cuz RIP.

  • =\

  • love it

  • esta melodia tiene que ser compartida de algun modo....demasiado profundo no tengo palabras para explicar lo que siento cada vez que la escucho, mis respetos para 23..

  • One of the those ultra moving songs from ASS23. This is the band that so many copied that Assemblage gets accused of copying THEM! lmfao.

    If you get a chance, please listen to BREAK ME on our site.

    Sam

    Thanks.

  • who can possibly dislike this? Fk this song is amazing and blows me away each and EVERY time I hear it!!!

  • Oh wow, this is amazing!

  • I heard this song after my mother passed away, I thought it fit perfectly... Then the end BLEW me away hearing he was singing about a parent.

  • My sister wrote in her good bye letter that she wanted this song and also Skin with A23 on her funeral. :/

  • @Hoxxz damn that is pretty deep, i lost my father to suicide 2 years ago and on July 30th I found my mother after she did the same. I often listed to this song, to express my feelings over my dad...and now wow...it really hits home. I know that I'm sorry for your loss doesn't take away any of the pain. I am sorry that your sister chose the same path as my parents. It is betrayal of the deepest kind and if you ever need to talk with someone that understands...im here.

  • Sad to know Tom's father has taken his life. We dont know how much they really meant to us untill they are gone. We had a close family member whos life was taken from us by a careless driver recently. The things about them we now miss, even the parts that used to annoy us are missed. We always wish we could have done something to change what happened. Never take matters into bothersome ways, and always love them while you have them

  • this song is so sad i listen to it like once every 6 months at the most- but its a great song

  • @wumpscut1 well once i read the liner notes it was about his own father i really couldnt listen to it anymore

  • TEMAZO

  • No you didn't

  • A m a z i n g <3

  • In the end.. when the voice changes slightly surreal and the sun shines through the clouds.. it's almost like the deceased one is looking down and hearing them say these words to them the whole time.. and finally when the voice sound changes at this point, it's as if the deceased one is the one finally saying these words to the living... because now the living is "disappointed"... :o

  • ;)

  • Awesome !! ******

  • Comment removed

  • to jedna z najlepszych piosenek z albumu failure,jest czego słuchać !jak na jednoosobowa kapelę jest zajefajny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!suuuuu­uuper.

  • WW2 was a tragedy, though there should have been one Camp left open for people who thumbs down this epic masterpiece.

  • @koffinkat666 No shit. As we have discussed,ppl are sheep.

  • @princesskellysue This is true

  • I'm looking for a particular mix of this song... It starts with piano and leads into the lyrics "And so I ask for one more chance..". It's a much slower and moodier version, and I can't seem to find it anywhere. Would appreciate any help I can get in finding it. Thanks.

  • @EternallyDevoid Maybe remix by In the nursery?

  • Good remix, very good, but still doesn't tope the original.

  • @Nebulisreconx Sure. This is Funker Vogt remix. It is great but I like more original mix.

  • @Danryoka Just need to add it with the ten other versions of this song I have >,<

  • @Nebulisreconx Yes, me too :D This is song is remixed a lot.

  • haunting

    

  • WOW....

    got chills

  • God damn its so sad im crying :(

  • @haxbox7 ditto

  • what album is this track on?

  • probably further proof that electronic music artists have come from a wonderful place

  • this video and song can save lives

  • This guy has the most amazing lyrics I've ever read, and I just discovered him about 15 minutes ago via last.fm

  • @Nerolus I completely agree. Definitely check out more of his work. It's all amazing. Each album has a very VERY different feel, some much darker, some more angry, some very introspective, others more contemplative about other things. All, however, are deeply personal and moving.

  • Have you noticed, the best songwriters right now are also synthpop dance acts. Assemblage 23, Wolfsheim, Colony 5, VNV Nation....

  • @KapStuf Best songwriters ten years ago, you mean? Or for the past decade? I don't know man. They're all decent for sure, but there's a lot more good songwriting than those few remnants of ebm/synthpop :P

  • @KapStuf I have been saying the same thing. Cruxshadows is another one I always add with them

  • @KapStuf Right now? The specific bands you're referring to have been around for quite a while. I'm not disagreeing with you, at all. So I don't want to cause a fuss...

    I just think you had better let everyone else know that these bands have been this amazing for longer than the b.s. on the radio. :D

  • @noirdesir13 It's true there aren't many new good synthpop bands, but there's not many new good bands bands in *any* genre. And most of the old synthpoppers are still making good stuff.

  • @KapStuf So so true!

  • @KapStuf HELL YES.

  • @KapStuf You forgot Covenant.

  • Love it this makes me think about the past

  • Great song. However I miss his old sound/work of his first 2 albums. Darker/angry A23 is what I miss.

  • master piece

  • best song ever to zone out to o-o .... get lost in the beat... the lyrics... surface... repeat the lyrics to these songs speak such truth... so relatable too,

  • My friedn just showed me this, and omg i love it. totally gonna blast this in my car

  • Fucking kick ass!

  • awesome. can you upload the original too please!? or someone?

  • What mix is this, i've not got it. It's even better than mine. Absolutely Brilliant.

  • @rikp2005 it's the "funker vogt remix" ;)

  • @rikp2005 must be "Funker Vogt Remix" or "VNV Nation Remix" i dont remember exactly... i owned the CD long long time ago...

  • @Omeprazol20 is the Funker Vogt Remix

  • @alexman87 it is so the uploader should have put that in the title

  • WOOOOOOOOOOOOOW GREAT SONG*****

  • What a great song. To be honest, I don't listen to lyrics much. Its more about the math for me but the words to this are really deep. Thanks Tom....

    Lucifer

  • Makes me think of two friends who hanged themselfes..

    Miss them both..

    R.I.P

  • @djanzon im sorry bout ur loss just know many more care - always

  • This is so chilling, but so good. Always brings a tear to my eye as it reminds me of a friend who's been through so much.

  • From the 1993 Clint Eastwood movie "In the Line of Fire", is the source for the sample "Do you believe in the nobility of suicide?" spoken by John Malkovich to Clint Eastwood in the elevator scene.

  • claro que no es la original,es algo que todos sabemos maraval21 pero nos refirimos a la cancion y obvio al tema original!!

  • The two people that disliked this video were too stunned by its scale of awesomeness that they hit the wrong button.

  • @Dragonchaos666 I'll buy that because right now I'm memzmorized and barely got the right button :-)

  • @Dragonchaos666 best comment i have seen on youtube

  • @Dragonchaos666 Hahaha! Absolutely correct my friend :)

  • @Dragonchaos666 hey, i did that ONCE by accident, it can happen.

  • No es la original, esta version es la de funker vogt, buen grupo tambien, pero no es la version de assemblage 23, aclarando no ??

  • my favorite song from assemblage 23,i love dad & i remember u all the time!!......(RIP)

  • Wanting another Song Assemblage 23 - Infinity

  • love ing what u have done

  • This song is just amazing

  • If your mood is not at the best it can be ,this song will only make it worse..

  • @achilleasloutraki Songs such as this can help with the flow of emotions that need to be released and experienced in order to make the journey to some kind of recovery.

  • genial!!!

  • All you can do is cry to this song, asking for forgiveness, to know the answers. Wanting just one more time or chance to get it all back, and to recognize what was happening. To ask yourself, "Would it really matter?" "What could/can I do?" These are hard questions to answer, I say that I'd help them, save them, but it's all lies. I'm just as useless as the next. T.T

  • I love this, but it doesn't come close to the raw emotion of VNV Nation's Forsaken.

    =/

  • im only 15 and im already into this haha my moms taought me well

  • ot thx for upload with lyrics! i had never knew the background of this song. my father also kills himself. so i hear this song different than before

    great video too. with scenes from "pandoras box" in the end. great.

  • @ditrapped Yea it's like you can't write sad songs anymore without somebody making it emo. I mean depression and so forth exist outside of youth culture. Emo is just sad to be cool, it's like to be depressed is cool or something it's not. Depression is horrible, it's not supposed to be popular.

  • @jontskinner emo? why the fuck would somebody want to pretend to be depressed or an outcast i dont get it why people would label them selfs but ill label retards when i see them besides most of them are fakers i was depressed i dident cut my self or wear black and make a scene like my life was horrible cause although it was not happy their are good times and bad times so i agree its not supposed to be popular

  • @isaacnelson1234 I agree with you, I didn't say everyone who was depressed was faking it and I was depressed before too. I was calling out the fakers not people who are suffering from a medical condition.

  • @jontskinner not exactly what i thought you said in the first place

  • I was lucky enough to meet Tom after a show some years ago. To be able to express my gratitude for this song was cathartic. The father of my sons committed suicide and this song helped me see things from my sons' point of view and therefore better understand what they were going through and help them through it.

  • "while your pain is over, mine has just begun"...ufff soo heavy, great song!

  • Excellent video to this song. Well done

  • i buried the feelings of my long past best friends suicide long ago. . . this song totally tore those right back to the fore. . . 

  • this song never gets old

  • No it's not ..... it's about his FATHER'S SUICIDE... check your shit before you post

  • Great Song and great Video Thumbs Up!!!

  • It's almost too bad that the lyrics are so heavy, I wouldn't feel right to play this at some party for instance.

  • My friend killed himself last night. I'm just glad I got to tell him how much I cared about him a few days before he did it. This song validates what I'm feeling, and I'm grateful to know that I'm not alone in this.

  • @glamazonlain I am terrible sorry at your friends suicide. My brother commited suicide about 14 years ago. We have to respect thier decisions even if it was the worst ones...because we love them. I know we shouldnt follow the same path because I know they would tell us not too. Rest in peace to those who took their own lives.

  • there was a realy cool video for this song on vampirefreaks. but i cant find it now.

    any one know what im talking about or were i can find it at?

  • @bloodkills666 I know what you're talking about (it had a black background with moving shapes, or something?!), but don't know what happened to it! Glad I found this person's video, though!

  • Son, I am dissapoint.

  • I love how, while the verses repeat, there is a complete different feeling and tone to them.

    At first, it's almost pleading. Desperate.

    By the end, it's powerful. Almost resolute.

  • Kind of the same for me, love this band after about 15 minutes...

  • just got into this band like 20 minutes ago, already loving them

  • jargin >>>  A single from Failure, "Disappoint", was released on Accession in October 2001. The song dealt with Shear's sense of loss after his father's suicide on October 28, 1999.

  • @gothicphilosopher Thanks for the reply, poor guy, I'm glad he dealt with it in a positive manner and outlook.

  • Epic song, I wonder who hes talking about, sounds like his mom. Sad reality ;;)

  • This song was written about his dad committing suicide... and yes, very sad.

  • @evlved1 Thanks for the reply, poor guy, I'm glad he dealt with it in a positive manner and outlook..

  • I heard somewhere the songs about his Pop. totally sad reality :(

  • great!

  • hammer geniale Band

  • It's a new generation with the same sad song. ROFL!

  • Which remix is this?

  • @Slavitron

    Sounds to me like the Funker Vogt remix!

  • remix by funkervogt

  • nice memories

  • holy crap this song brings back memories....

  • Chilling! Why don't I own more Assemblage 23 songs...

  • @moisesfermin Because Assemblage 23 songs owns us... ;)

  • @moisesfermin Cause you do not own another persons work, you purchase the privilege to listen.

  • cool!

  • Underbar!!!

  • Do a video with the (In The Nursery ITN Affinity Mix) of Disappoint. That is my all time favorite version of the song. But kick ass vid!!

  • This song is the best I have found to describe the feelings I have about my father's suicide.

  • Actually this song IS about Tom's (the singer) dad committing suicide.

  • @rustydwyer23 i'm sorry

  • @rustydwyer23 *hug*

  • @rustydwyer23 well this song is about his feelings about his mothers suicide

  • @rustydwyer23

    I'm really sorry 'bout your father -_-

  • @rustydwyer23 time still hasnt changed anything...this is still the best song to listen to for someone who committed suicide without any warning, goodbye or note....it is really good

  • @rustydwyer23 for me its my girl friend

  • @rustydwyer23- I know you posted a year ago, but i feel the same way as you do, two of my friends committed suicide in the same year and this song makes me think of them as well.

  • Comment removed

  • @rustydwyer23 It was actually about Tom's father committing suicide. It's a beautifully haunting track isn't it?

  • @rustydwyer23

    I can almost relate to that.

    There is talk that my dad's death was suicide. I don't believe it, but there is still that doubt in my head...

  • this is even worse....my father hung himself on 9-1-09 and I became obsessed with this song, now its even worse....My mother followed his footsteps and hung herself on 7-30-11. I will never understand how they could leave me with the wondering, the blame, the unanswered....It truly is the most selfish act that one could possibly commit. Total betrayal of your loved ones. It leaves you with an undescribable feeling of emptiness and leaves you finding the small things in life to not matter........

  • Gracias skyhawk747, por subir esta canción maravillosa. Es una de mis favoritas. Mereces ser llamado un verdadero campeón. Hasta pronto... y que siga lo mejor de la música que existe, como esta canción de Assemblage 23.
