Scapegoat (Nabeel Original)

[shamrocksmurf]

Ok, the more videos I watch, the more I realize this guy is a cuckoo nut basket haha. I love it. Great music too btw, I can definitely imagine it being on our alternative rock station down here.

[Camtron47]

Now, you know that this guy must be awesome, when you hit the "like" button before the video has even started loading...

[burningcleric]

IMO this is hands down the best thing I've ever heard you write. ROCK ON. \../,

[InuitAldebaran]

See? THAT's what happens when you hand this Nabeel-guy a box of matches while he sits on a barrel full of TNT. KA - ZA - BOOOOOM!!!

[NabeelMusic]

@InuitAldebaran ROFL!!! XD

[Accordioncrasy]

This looks like a "crazy" movie (like my nick on YT), music is all right

Istvan

[NabeelMusic]

@Accordioncrasy Thanks for the movie comment, I hope it IS a crazy movie. If you go to my playlists and start at the beginning of my videos you might see that movie starting to form.....if you can make it through my music that is. ;)

[kapitankusto]

muy bueno, como siempre.

[jatrichojas]

Really great song and video. Love the camera work. That shot with the bass was brilliant. That was a great room for a video too. I hope you're feeling better. I guess we all have those dark places to contend with.  Another very entertaining creation. Thank you. Take care, Jason : )

[przemyslawminta]

great song Nabeel!!! greetings from Gdańsk!

[NabeelMusic]

@przemyslawminta Thanks Przemek! Greetz from Pittsburgh! :)

[Krzycho457]

@przemyslawminta Zgadzam się :) Pozdrowienia z Rzeszowa :) I agree :) Greetings from Rzeszów :)

[MAXimumOverd0se]

Thumb This Up People!

[NabeelMusic]

@MAXimumOverd0se Listen to this man everyone....he knows what he's talking about. :)

[davidleduc85]

rad bass line!

[NabeelMusic]

@davidleduc85 Thanks David!! Nothing too complex or funky this time around, just some straight poppin' and slappin'....hardcore style. :)

From one bassist to another...glad you liked it.

[Pieninja14]

One of my favorites from you in awhile, and I don't even listen to this kind of music. You had me from the bass line. What a start to a song!

Love the split personalities as always. Seems like fun to perform.

Other than that, I just wish I could write music like you do.

[WaywardClothing]

Very, very nice. I like how the video and the song form a cohesive concept.

[Lauramariesongs]

Every time I watch this I see something new...like I just noticed that the colors intensified (making red stand out more) at like 1:41. Once I noticed this, I wanted to jump out of my chair from this amazing discovery....just so brilliant of you once again. :D

[BETonthisHORSE]

what you did with the camera on the bass was sick!

totally gonna rob that and use it in the future!

hahah!

great stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[NabeelMusic]

@BETonthisHORSE Steal away my friend. Actually, I stole that from Faireset, but I think he stole that from Darren Aronofsky....but actually, Darren probably stole it from.....oh, I don't know...it's yours. ;)

Can't wait to see what your style leads you to with that shot.

[CausesSideEffects]

@NabeelMusic i'll steal it too.. you'll see in my next video :P

[NabeelMusic]

@CausesSideEffects nice. :)

[Nwhitaker08]

love it

[ConnorFlockSpeevage]

Amazing. The 4 you's are awesome as ever. And of cause Laura too :P You're acting is fantastic, you're editing skills are as good. I have one request though, another song with Lauramariesongs? In the Waiting Line was fantastic.

[ConnorFlockSpeevage]

Also I reckon you could take "Hurt" By Johnny Cash and make it into your own. "Hurt" is a really thoughtful song just like "Scapegoat" is, but they are very different to one another. I doubt you'll think it's your type of song, but I genuinely think you, (maybe Laura too?) could make it suit your styles. I guess this is just me thinking aloud, and reading it in a couple of hours I'll think I was being silly. Just do more songs please!! haha

[WaywardClothing]

@ConnorFlockSpeevage actually "Hurt" is originally written by Nine Inch Nails

[Lauramariesongs]

Everything about this is killer, from the strong vocals and groovy bass line to the kick ass beat & amazing acting/editing (it doesn't even end there).  Excellent job in conveying the emotion so that the viewer can really experience the story. Also, not only did you do a superb job on the quality of the overall sound, but you've made this so visually entertaining with all the cuts and lighting that I can't take my eyes off. You are beyond AWESOME!! ;)

[NabeelMusic]

@Lauramariesongs You're forgetting the most important part about this video. The one thing that makes it great.....YOU!!!

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Lo!! :)

[benzone50]

Awesome, as always!!!

[enricator]

awesome job!!! music, video editing, story plot... enjoyed every second of it!

say hi to the superhero for me ;) lol

[squeedum]

brutal!

[JavocadoDrums]

dude...this was pretty awesome.....I'm not sure what just happened, but it was pretty awesome!

[twomuchcents]

Laura was great! haha.. another good one nabeel.. they just keep getting better!

[NabeelMusic]

@twomuchcents Yeah, Laura did an AWESOME job. Can't thank her enough for helping me out with my videos like she has been.

[NoviceIndustries]

Best yet?

I really dig the arrangement here.

Kud0s/etc.

[DeliriumReal]

awesome... love your editing....

°Sara°

[NabeelMusic]

@DeliriumReal Thanks so much Sara! :)

[ShmoNerd]

For the first 35 seconds, you were MADE to be a superhero.

[chriscommissomusic]

Dude...you're a flippin genuis!!! You know this I hope! :)

[NabeelMusic]

@chriscommissomusic Thanks Chris, but I'm no genuis...I'm just a wannabe superhero! :)

[CausesSideEffects]

just wanted to add that the lyrics are awsome on this one.. i can really feel that man.. this is the best you ever did, did i mention that already??.. well than i say it again.. IT'S THE FUCKING BEST!!!!! ;)

[NabeelMusic]

@CausesSideEffects So glad you liked it brother. :D Hopefully I'll be able to top it!

* * * repeatedly bites fingernails * * *

[faireset]

impressive!

mmmh, did I hear something about a butterfly at some point? lol

you editing is very good (the timing between the Nabeels is perfect!), but you'd really deserved a better camera, to film in HD, and better lights (even for the gloomy parts)

[NabeelMusic]

@faireset Yes you did hear that right. :)

[mohawow]

Nabeel: Please make new song for the World Cup 2010! :)

[CausesSideEffects]

THE BEST FUCKING THING YOU EVER POSTED!!!!!!!!! :) (not that your other stuff isn't brilliant as well but the kicks some butt)

[NabeelMusic]

I'd just like to say one thing to everybody....

WRAPPING PAPER!!!!!

[squeedum]

@NabeelMusic

very nice product placement. LOL. \m/ \m/

[NabeelMusic]

@squeedum Ha...yeah, and they didn't even have to pay me! I just thought I'd be nice to the Wrapping Paper People.......wrapping paper people, wow...say that three times fast. :)

...notice how the corners of the wrapping paper box are Orange? Just sayin'. ;)

[squeedum]

@NabeelMusic LOL...Come Christmas and birthdays, that IS my favorite brand.

[vadeking]

PHENOMENAL! ! !

One of your absolute BEST YET, Nabeel!

Super Impressed.

(That offline list reminds me that I should really get Skype back up.)

[NabeelMusic]

@vadeking Thanks a lot Vade. There were still a good amount of ideas I had to sacrifice just to get this thing done and online, but I think it turned out alright.

[2milho]

pomplamoose is fucking awesome!

you too, great song!

[mybigimagination]

I like the you, you and you thing... pretty cool how you keep the story going. Your editing skills are through the roof!  Nice job!

[NabeelMusic]

@mybigimagination I like acting...it's fun. :) And thanks so much for the editing compliment! Now if I could only get my cinematography and sound design up to par maybe I'd have something. Oh well, slowly but surely getting better at it...hopefully.

[TheMourningKitchen]

Man, that was very intense. Great song and your videos are always so much fun.

[myblisslikethis]

oh god i freaking LOVE this. totally downloading. great for running on the treadmill. seriously!

[NabeelMusic]

@myblisslikethis Good for running on the treadmill, huh? Hmm. I never thought of my music as good tunes to workout to...NICE! I should give that a shot sometime. ;P

Thanks so much, Bliss!

[cerebus1308]

Very Cool From Patrick N Cereboo!!! Kick ass!!!! ;}

@cerebus1308 Thanks a lot Patrick!! You too C-boo. :)

[PookLowEnd]

LOL! That guy on Skype looked awfully familiar! Thanks for including me in your video, in a way man! Great video, and great song :)

[NabeelMusic]

@PookLowEnd Hahaha!! Glad you didn't mind that, Pook. You were online at the time I recorded the video, so...in a way...I was filming you! Thanks for the cameo.  :)
