The Spill Canvas- "Gateway Drug" Lyric Video

[Anlimema]

Hello Everyone!

It’s Music that’s keeping me alive.

My life is so difficult and the only thing to forget my problems is the Music.

All of you will think I’m crazy but you’re wrong

Because singing and writing I can be who really I am.

I’m so grateful because now I can smile, dreaming, screaming. (And I owe it all to music and to god)

Well, I made some covers and I just upload it to my channel and I’ll be grateful if you stop by my channel and check it out.

Thank you so much!!

[SeattleGuy1968]

Landon Heil - email me!

[RaaainbowVeins]

Hi repeat button, I am going to rape you tonight.

That is all.

[xx3SimplyMexx3]

if they go mainstream their musics gonna have to change. i wouldnt stop listening to them , but i just dont want them being forced to change just to make another radio hit . at least they didnt change after All Over You.

[LoveSukiSnack]

Who cares if they go mainstream?

Would you stop listening to them if they did?

It's good music, that stuff doesn't matter!

Freakin' hipster...

[TaylerTV]

This video is sick <333

[UhmazingDelainee]

Dear Spill Canvas,

I seen you on MTV a loooooooonggggggggggggggg time ago,

and well I love you.

Thats all, bye. <3

[EmmaLOLCats0908]

OMG this is one of my most favorite bands!!!

[ElainaGoesRawr]

@EmmaLOLCats0908 OMG! You have terrible grammar!!! :)

[IntroSpectre6x3]

@ElainaGoesRawr OMG! plz 2 b teeching grammerz? 

[EmmaLOLCats0908]

@ElainaGoesRawr What are you the grammar police? :P

[alyshaxoxx]

i could listen to their music ALL day! <3

very nice video and footage btw. (:

[xoleighsylvia]

@SilverSkies63 I agree, their older music I feel had far more emotion in them.

[SilverSkies63]

They're definitely more mainstream than they used to be. I personally miss the acoustic soft music as opposed to the newer music that seems to add more instruments with every album. They're still good, but I don't feel their music as much anymore.

[J3skaLex2tis]

@SilverSkies63 well to bad their not together anymore...

[marymonstersauce]

Grrrr missed them live yesterday :[ I am going to a Your Favorite Franchise show next week though! Cant wait till those boys hit it big <3

[TheBellelaufer]

If they go mainstream I'll cut off my left foot... just sayin'

[LuKaHaRokz]

i love this song!!!!! its is their best so far :DDDDD

[wetthecheat]

@LuKaHaRokz this song is certainly amazing, but it's nothing compared to "The Tide", "Self-Conclusion", "Bracelets", "Dutch Courage".... or pretty much anything else off their first 2 albums (and their demos). This band is ridiculously good though!

[KatieKityLette]

i adore them!!

[alleighbabe06]

@mrshunterjones

haha then you're thinking of the wrong band. There isn't nor has there ever been a band member named Kenneth. Sorry dear. 

[alleighbabe06]

Dear Spill Boys:

COME BACK. No more hiatus. Remember all of us screaming the lyrics to your songs that are from the older albums? We miss you and need you to come back. :[

<3 Us & me.

[fobgurly]

Uh, haters much? Who cares if they 'go mainstream'. You should be happy for their success.

[xTheRingMaster]

@fobgurly There's a difference between being successful and mainstream. Of course we want them to be successful. Mainstream would be if they started to change their sound because of the fame. So, yeah.

[fobgurly]

@xTheRingMaster Well I don't think they've done that. They don't sound THAT different...I think they've just grown and changed. Not because of fame, but because they wanted to. I mean..they aren't even that famous.

[xTheRingMaster]

@fobgurly I never said they went mainstream. I said that I hope they don't go mainstream(:

[SuperSarawhite]

@fobgurly how is not wanting them to change to a shitty style of music hating? Their old stuff is amazing and we dont want them to change,.

[fobgurly]

@SuperSarawhite It depends if you're on of those kids who think that they're favorite type of music is the only type there is. You know, the kind who hate on artists just because everyone else likes them. Not saying you're like that, but it all depends what you mean by "shitty" style.

[GodsentHellraiser]

I don't get it...

She's his gateway drug?

So she just leads him on to the more hardcore chick?

If he says so...

[lobergo94]

@GodsentHellraiser no, its about actual drugs

[curlfro2008]

@TryandCatchtheWind No, we all orgasm when Nick Thomas speaks.

[blynnnzzz]

@curlfro2008

Sooo true.

[JusticeAndTaylorShow]

I love this video. It's really awesome. Great job :)

[flatlinedlove012]

I love the way he says "No I don't wanna stop" <3

[staticxfan4life]

im a guy and i think the spill canvas is amazing

[kk0bbe]

@staticxfan4life You sure? (I mean the guy part.)

[staticxfan4life]

@kk0bbe no lol i was supposed to put no homo after that lol

[blynnnzzz]

This is one of my favorites from their new stuff :P

[amberableful]

Awesome song, love the video.

[iheartsjonas]

My Dangerous Habit...<3

[kitsunefire1]

The Spill Canvas is MY Gateway Drug. :)

[vuongthaimyshoes]

this song goes so hardcore

[AmberJean94]

@TryandCatchtheWind  hahaha not at all lmao

[imEMOsoLUVme]

this song is fucking beast

[theundeservingband]

great sound guys... the undeserving

[XDMERELXD]

@TryandCatchtheWind

noway.. (L)_(L)

[ichirukoriurycha]

my boyfriend always sings me this song...its so awesome

[RandomPanda7]

These guys need to be bigger. They're amazing.

[darcie853]

@RandomPanda7 no

[RandomPanda7]

@darcie853 No?

[darcie853]

@RandomPanda7 bands always change when they become bigger. it's depressing. I don't want that to happen to the spill canvas!

[xTheRingMaster]

Dear Spill Canvas;

Please don't go mainstream.

Pleeeeaaaaasssseeee.

That is all.

[SkankyRegg]

@xTheRingMaster they have a mainstream sound... but they're not... they're close though lol... lets hope not

[RaaainbowVeins]

@xTheRingMaster I could not agree more.

[TheLeprechuan]

@xTheRingMaster If they go mainstream they get more profits and gain more for the music they make. Would you rather they tour out of their own pocket and barely break even from tours and studio time? REAL fans want them to grow and shine.

[xTheRingMaster]

@TheLeprechuan I don't know how many times I've explained this, but I'll explain it again...

I don't mean mainstream as in getting a boat load of fans and making money; I was talking about the bands that change their style to get more fans. I WANT to see them all over mass media coverage. They deserve it, but I DON'T WANT to lose the Spill Canvas that got me through some of the worst times I could have imagined.

I hope this cleared it up(:

[TheLeprechuan]

@xTheRingMaster ahh ok, then yeah I agree. Sorry for the mix-up. but to many people out there get angry at bands who become famous because they wanted them to be their own little secret band that nobody else knows.. (-_-) which to me is just selfish. Sadly though The Spill Canvas broke up already so none of that is going to happen. D: or so says work of their facebook page. :/

[xTheRingMaster]

@TheLeprechuan Eh, it happens. No big deal.

Yeah, they broke up, but maybe it'd for the best. In my opinion, it's just because their label has been dropping bands like crazy. Anyway, Nick will probably go back to doing the stuff he started out with; solo projects.

[TheLeprechuan]

@xTheRingMaster Here's hoping. I'm completely straight, but damn that man could serenade me into anything. D: 

[xTheRingMaster]

@TheLeprechuan Aha. Understandable. That man has a beautiful voice.

[fuckyourscenes]

@xTheRingMaster Except they're back together now.

[frozenmystery1]

@xTheRingMaster the world would end if they did

[shainaBEEf]

@xTheRingMaster they are mainstream kind of...

[vivalapaul]

@xTheRingMaster yeah, how dare they try and get more people in the world to know of their brilliance. Especially when this song deserves more views than any Kesha or Bieber in the world.

[HisDarkAngel4911]

@xTheRingMaster why the hell should it matter?! Ugh. Its MUSIC if you like it then freaking listen to it, Stop giving a damn what other people think and like. MUSIC IS MUSIC. Who the hell cares if its mainstream or not?! You are not a true Music lover if you care if something is mainstream or not.

[xTheRingMaster]

@HisDarkAngel4911 What the fuck are you talking about? Do any of the people attacking me even know what going mainstream consists of? Like changing the sound of the band in order to acquire more fans? Or having a specific subject to write a song about even if the band doesn't want to? Yeah, didn't think so.

[HisDarkAngel4911]

@xTheRingMaster Again thats music. ._. why the FUCK should it matter? You're not exactly understanding a damn word i just said.

[axelg5]

my friend was singing this on the way to go grab. good times :)

[b3xdiff3rent]

No offense to anyone else, but this is shit compared to their old stuff. I just feel like they completely sold out. Their old stuff seems to have more feeling in the lyrics, these lyrics are vague. I'm kinda depressed that one of my favorite bands, just became a band I don't like.

[darcie853]

@b3xdiff3rent I was thinking that... ;(

[newmoongal17]

3 people missed the like button. That means they dont know the meaning of good music.

[D1N05G0R4WR]

this song is purely amazing, and that doesn't even come close to describing how freaking amazing it is!(:

[paintballgirl2k14]

fucking love this band....

[KILLATRENT6644]

@TryandCatchtheWind umm yeah! lol

[MargoPix]

@TryandCatchtheWind Nopes, totally feel the same way ;)

Hot as Fuck

[jackiisonfire]

@TryandCatchtheWind, No. I think it's hot, too. <3

[ModernDayyCutthroat]

Its kinda the"nevershoutnever" kinda change going on here:/

[IveGotAwesomeness]

@ModernDayyCutthroat ... why does everyone think christofer drew is changing.... he's not 16/17 anymore.... his new music actually sends great messages to their listeners.

[ModernDayyCutthroat]

@IveGotAwesomeness but alot of people dont like him for the music they like his hair and looks it was the origional "style"and when he went and changed it his whole image fell i tho for a matter of fact love his music.

[luked144]

This song sucks compared to their old stuff.

[KILLATRENT6644]

@luked144 agreed!

[Pfigam]

Simpel video material + amazing editing = entertaining music video

[StrawberiSwitchblade]

hehehehe ! fiend !!

[XxXxCOOKXxXx]

It reminds me of Cage the Elephant but i still LOVE spill canvas Forever!!

[liquifyism]

Hmm, The spill canvas has defently dont some better songs. Im not sure i like this one,

It reminds me of rascal flats.

Its to 'country' sounding.

andd i think its hot hwen he says fuck to :D

[bigbro44]

Holy shit I love this song!!!!!

[XxEmogirl913xX]

what is a "d- double take"?

[dragonx329]

@XxEmogirl913xX It's just him saying Double take but with a fumble.

[SplatMeSilly]

i feel so awkward how they are driving on the right. its like they are gonna crash lmao.

thats what you get when you live in australia

[80xPunkOKatx13]

@SplatMeSilly isn't that more fitting for the song though?

[XxEmogirl913xX]

It's funny how true this is, especially for someone that has done drugs before

[80xPunkOKatx13]

@XxEmogirl913xX actually there's really no such thing as a 'gateway drug' if you think about it. it's a clever association but not exactly true.

[paintballgirl2k14]

@80xPunkOKatx13 ummmm technically the first drug someone tries is a gateway drug to harder shit, or less harder depending on how stupid someone is their first time.... but its a persons choice whether or not to go through the gate persay. or stay with their first little habit.

[80xPunkOKatx13]

@paintballgirl2k14 actually most people move on to harder drugs because of ignorance not because of the drug itself. drugs like marijuana don't make you want to do other drugs unless you're sheltered normally because of ignorance to the fact that there's a big difference. so while it can be a gateway drug because of various reasons the drug itself has nothing to do with it so that term is therefore somewhat false.

[MandyBby04]

[Tlynch17]

Nick and Dallas Green are the 2

[bimmerman325i]

[SeattleGuy1968]

I was wondering if you'd top All Over You - this is it - you're going to a new level. Well done.

[faybird514]

I love it! I cant say that its better than your older stuff because I love all of it, new and old. Wanted you guys to know that I brought in my New Year listening to your music. Couldn't think of anything better. :D

[StephenLloydWright]

AH

each album you guys get better and better and im counting down untill this new album is out=]

[MayMayMayhem]

oh my gosh i am so addicted to this song. ahhh :)

[natlove4]

love it:D

[Genevievexx3]

i thought it was "you pull me down, you fuck me up"?

[JamieRad12]

They simply changed it so that this version isn't explicit.

[bigboo71289]

He says that on the third chorus

[Livebymediebyme]

@Genevievexx3 that is the lyric, at one part near the end of the song, every other instance of it the lyric is "you pull me down, you mess me up"

[inebriation]

Plus, where is the PREORDER for this new album guys? You have us feening, you are all our "gateway drug"

[MayMayMayhem]

haha. i soooo agree :)

[inebriation]

Reguardless of the change of sound, The Spill Canvas will always be that one band that helps you appreciate life, and music, its great, and cannot wait for the new album

[TheDiversityTwins]

I wasn't sold on the music part at first but it's grown on me. Lyrics are amazing as usual. Can't wait for the new album!

[IveGotAwesomeness]

@TheDiversityTwins Same! I thought that the guitar didn't feel like TSC but it warmed on me fast, and in fact, its now my "favourite song of the moment"

[MayMayMayhem]

no matter what song these guys do or how they switch up their sound...its amazing. & i absolutely love them <3

[xpatrickstumpslovex]

This song is a little more poppy then i like, I hope your albums better because I love you guys.

The lyrics are good though

[SofieValdeNerland]
