State Radio - Right Me Up [Official Music Video]

[keystonedtp]

Oh wow. I've been listening to this song for like 4-5 years and only now do I realize what the hell it's all about. I always figured Manny was some political figure or what have you.

[Dhunt9080]

[Balfan123]

[emilytaylor2332]

It is

Why sue me? Why sue me? Why?

Just so you know!!!

[303username]

brb, bawling.

[TheHayes321]

14 people are heartless bastards

[Sempf11]

it's good to see, that still bands exist which care about people, especially those who are affected, and threat them as humans whith feelings, dreams etc.

In addition, State Radio also shows this and don't just say: Oh we love every person on this planet.

they don't look down on them, because they are "better". They recognized that handicapped persons, are the funniest and loveliest ones on earth. For sure they may sometimes seem a little bit annoying, but in fact they are the greatest.

[DTcirca82]

Saw these guys at El Mocambo in Toronto a couple years back playing for a crowd of 300 people. They should be playing stadiums in front of thousands

[abhockey99]

14 people lack souls

[ashap21]

so much for rock stars being self absorbed.

[dannyab3]

[Runner031487]

I came across this video over a year ago and I fell in love with it. I've been advocating for individuals with special needs for about 8 years now and this video is perfect. I will be showing it to my students in a few weeks. Thanks so much for giving these special people the recognition and opportunities they deserve.

[thtsfingstraight]

I cry every time I watch this, how can this not make you want to become a better person?

@BreakinMA your a dick.

[kinnizzlexxx]

such an inspirational song and video guys, AWESOME!! LOVE IT!!!

[levinunn62playa]

chad urmston for president

[ovhan1]

i thought he was speaking a different language at first at the part where he sings "And oh, this friend, right me up" lol

[sunniesilhouette]

TWD, every time I hear this song I still think about you. so much. Special Olympics was an amazing event to help out with this past winter. And as the song goes, "as long as the sox put up a fight". Well, they sure are right now :) Miss you terribly

[beachwalker2117]

I wanted to know what the song was that made no sense to me...boy did I feel stupid after I saw the video here. Kudos to State Radio for their message!! Special Olympics should see this :)

[Xx1yuenD1xX]

Thumbs up if this song makes your day =)

[supimrach1]

why does youtube think that i would like to watch lady gaga after this?

[fredpardo]

not a lot things get me to tear up but this did

[MrPhilippguydude]

@jakesoccerfreak

Touche...

[frostyykinddbudzz93]

I got a little emotional in math watching this ... that's great they did this song for manny thank you state radio

[Tazzie1312]

I don't remember I got this song. But I like it. :)

[GKlem1235]

Cannot believe I haven't ever watched this.. I've been a fan of dispatch and state radio for 7 years now. This video got me a little emotional. If this band isn't an influence on anyone who listens to them, then there is something wrong with you..

[WestCoastWierdo]

Saw you dudes at Bamboozle. Great job!

[mouse334]

love the song. BUT SCREW THE RED SOX!

[QuickPYT]

@mouse334 This song has nothing to do with the Red Sox...

[mouse334]

@QuickPYT he says "unless the sox put up a fight" thats the last line of the song dude so they are def talking about the red sox because state radio is from Massachusetts . plus he says "manny" which might be manny ramieiez. prob not, but could be

[QuickPYT]

@mouse334 The song is about Manny Fratato (The guy in a wheel chair. State Radio helps out at this special needs camp where they met Manny who is a huge Red Sox fan. Yes the last line of the song has to due with the Red Sox but it is still in context with Manny. This song was for him.

[legor420]

@QuickPYT so this song is old? or recent happening's??

[mouse334]

@QuickPYT "you know says he it won't be long, till we up again having another swing" this is song is all about the red sox and baseball

[QuickPYT]

@mouse334 uhm no...i know my State Radio and clearly Chad is talking about manny Fratato i know this for a fact

[ipwngearsofwar]

were they in RI during the show or was it just the man they brought on stage?

[TheBoguski74]

this song is like sex to my ears



[KFCBUCKETS]

damn you state radio, you got me crying.

[sumkynd]

Who is Manny? I would love to know the story.

[panterafreak5494]

come to sun seeker in Canada!!!

[maddiieeelevvv]

crying, this is amazing

[MrTreezie]

Such good people... Such a good song... Such a good story... It's just perfect!

[martinxlive5]

And oh this friend today right me up

[sora41333]

I understand whoever doesn't like the song. But i can't understand how anyone can dislike the moral of this song. This band does much more to society than any other band I know. Truly amazing people.

[robzombie08]

Dispatch 2011 SUMMER!!!!!

[hesterxlitouchdown]

@lilmoon199 I completely agree!

[devinmcgarry82]

10 people have no heart

[lilmoon199]

This is such a beautiful video. I love that that they don't make their videos by catering to the media's needs but instead show virtues that they truly value.

[xbox360gamer413]

this is a really nice to do for there friend :')

[MrJradle]

Beautiful. 

[L188188]

Christ that is a great song.

[JAKExISxPRO]

Gettin Right me up tatted on my ribss <3

[n33dxaxbrain]

[MikesFrenzy]

My nips get so hard at 0:52 HAHAHAHA

[KFCBUCKETS]

@MikesFrenzy shut the hell up you prick get a life.

[downwithtoyota]

This song needs more views

[akavioletcarson]

This song is the most touching I've ever heard. Despite the song being so uplifting, and the undeniable joy evident in the people in the video, I can't stop crying. State Radio is one of the only bands that makes music truly worth listening to.

[MrChasedeez]

Liked the song before I knew the actual meaning, now I love it

[AlleisterCrowley1]

real music!!! what an inspirational person chad is

[winkerscorner]

i just got chills! this is so beautiful :)

[derrock08]

incredible....

[wait4tues]

this song isnt how to be nice to people with disabilities its about what we can learn from them.

[Wolta]

Accidentally pressed the like button before the video started.... I did not regret it :)

[peakinonmesc]

@Wolta for like 4 minutes i was reading this thinking, "why the hell would he/she tell us that? and with a smile on their face? cruel bastards" but then i figured it out we coo :)

[TheLaxBros9]

7 people are assholes.

[beautifulmusic1313]

awesome song, great video, was the concert in tiverton or is Manny from tiverton?

[dudewat212]

smooth song to chill to !

[seek4knowledge]

this is beautifuk indeed, it makes me cry sometimes

[CBarcinas671]

Finally a band who makes meaningful music.

[iaiceikiingi47i]

@CBarcinas671 They're not as good as Dispatch but I totally get what you're saying dude.

[Mcchunky7]

@CBarcinas671 what about dispatch? they have the same motives and meanings... plus its the same lead singer...

[co0ookiecwisp356]

@CBarcinas671 i agree they make meaningful music but this just makes you sound ignorant there are pleanty of bands that make meaningful music.

[jeffclarkemusic]

@CBarcinas671 3 words.. john butler trio.. you are now "learned" (grammer error on purpose ;P)

[kingofallwhites]

@CBarcinas671 Yeah really meaningful. A fucking song about smelly bare feet and fucking hot dogs that you cannot understand what the hell they are saying.

[Rubberducks12]

Respond to this video...  hey...shut up. its about guys with disabilities, dont make fun

[kingofallwhites]

@Rubberducks12 Making fun of the annoyingness of the song- not the video or people with disabilities.

[Rubberducks12]

@kingofallwhites oh sorry, well it sounded it like it, i was confused

[Deachy1308]

@kingofallwhites

How about you listen to the song moron

instead of assuming its bad because your too dumb to understand such big words!

you must be a sad sad person........................­........

[reallyhotCOCO]

so underated

[lookingforit]

Oh God. This is beautiful, I'm speechless.

[projectfinale]

@ultimin google search chad urmston, and look at all of the things he has done for the rest of the world... then log yourself back in and delete your comment

[ultimin]

I don't like how the band is pretending to love the handicapped man but contantly drop water and punch him and stuff in the video, what hypocrites. They need to show some respect.

[iLax16]

@ultimin Please re-watch this video and take note of any unhappiness or "disrespect." This song is all about love and they showed nothing but kindness and compassion to these people. There is nothing hypocritical about the message they're singing and with what the video is portraying. You're looking too superficially at the situation.

[MoreCodPlease]

@ultimin you obviously don't know state radio or the size of their hearts

[kentj7]

@ultimin Go to :54 and look at the smile on that man's face who just had water poured on him, how is bringing that much joy in any way disrespectful?

[mmask8r]

@ultimin Or maybe hes treating them such as he would to any other one of his friends? i have a freind who has some type of bone disease and he cant stand when people treat him different jus cuz of his disability. gro up bro this is a good peaceful song

[narniafan8]

@ultimin in what part of this video do they ever punch him? please, i have watched this video five times and not once have i seen anybody get punched.

[squiliamfancypants]

@ultimin you have no heart

[wuertelman]

yeah but he was also awesome in the band dispatch 

[aSiuLxx]

They have to come again to germany they were so great! :)

i love the songs, they think about that what they sing, i love it:)

[TrooperMine]

7 people wright down

[MrPhilippguydude]

7 people have no heart

[MrPhilippguydude]

@MrPhilippguydude

10*

[jakesoccerfreak]

@MrPhilippguydude how can you say you have a heart if your calling 7 random people in the world with no heart, not cool dude

[kingofallwhites]

@MrPhilippguydude Make that 14- the hippies must die! I fucking hate this "song"!!!!!!!

[MrPhilippguydude]

This made me cry... It takes an emotional video like this to show people how unfortunate people can be

[ttoosh]

how many times does the retarded policeman want to appear in this video?

[xxbmxagexx]

@ttoosh hilarious.....

[Bloolooloo69]

One of the only few bands that are actually good from Boston. Them and Dropkick Murphys...kind of

[C0rvus]

@Bloolooloo69 Obviously you've never been to the city and seen any local bands.

[MotherTheresa12]

this song reminds me of what music should be. thanks state radio and whoever posted this

[BluffKnoll]

I feel pleasant anticipation watching them on AREA 4 Festival this weekend. Amazing band!

[rickyt2713]

I always thought this song was amazing but now that ive seen the music video, it makes it even better.

[ixlovexfob]

These people are amazing.

look at Chad, he just doesn't stop helping others, i mean look at his dispatch days as well, amazing.

these are the kind of people we need in this world.

[TimDay313]

This seriously gives me chills. That's the kind of kindness we need in the world.

[monaisfamous]

I'll See them at 25. August at Chiemsee Rocks ;p

[jeepguysc]
