  • EMO = NO LIFE!!!!! the song is called art of suicide!!! lmfao!! if you dont want haters dont be a dumbass!!!! your supporting suicide and death and all that other bull shit!! your right you are entitled to your opinion is your but that doesn't make that shit right.. and if you get mad at this.. then im talking to your depressed bitch ass...

  • Is it wrong, that the message I get from this song is, "Self-destruction isn't worth it... if it's making you unhappy, leave it behind. But I don't mean kill yourself. I mean find another way of living, that makes you happier." ..... ?

  • People In my school judge EA's music and i say if they wanna say something,they should keep they're opinion to them self! I'm sick of haters,if u don't like it don't search it up Because it shows u'r stupid. That's all i wanna say <3 Thank u for reading this <333

  • *adding on - this song was so beautiful it made me cry...and I'm a guy...

  • My goodness, I found her music just 2 days ago and in these 2 days, I bought her ENTIRE discography. Shame on me for never finding her before, this is utter genius ! Music, lyrics, her style, holy fu** it's amazing !

    My life is now complete !!!

  • Sounds like Pocahontas...

  • @demonjack123 So? Is their a point? Think, use your head. We don't care! We LOVE HER!!

  • Oh-my-God

  • Haha, I enjoyed the reference to gloomy sunday and I very much agree with her. That alteration was stupid! c:

  • This is Very good !

  • This song is my fave. It helps me fall asleep some how....!

  • @TheHayray57 If you have nothing nice to say, please dont say it(Or type it, whatever, Idgaf). Thats exactly what I do if I dont like someone, I dont post rude comments trying to get attention, I pause it till I find someone else, or listen to a different song of theirs incase it was that song. So please, get off of her music, or dont say anything at all. Its sad when a TWELVE year old (Me) has to step into this and be mature. Please and thank you.

  • @IzziSaysRawr Lucky! I want one, but Im 12... :P I cant even wear make up cause I'm "too young" and it "ruins skin" but thats only if you dont get it all off. Eventually I'll get a corset. (Determined Face)<3

  • I adore Emilie Autumn; her music is a gorgeous blend of the old and the new, the mundane and the taboo.I understand her music is an acquired taste, but saying she is not talented is a purely asinine comment; she IS, and that is not opinion.Also, I am quite amused by those types of people who judge the validity of art when it contains disturbing, unorthodox, or "taboo" subject matter; not all artists are pusillanimous enough to deal only with the sanguine aspects of life. Open your minds.

  • I fucking loathe anime!

  • @dapperfantasy What does that have do with this video?

  • Wow this is my first time listening to her, my god she's amazing. I love it.

  • I love how the next song is 'Dead Is The New Alive'..

  • Jesus christ I'm top comment o_o

  • @MyImperfections1 I love your name! MyImperfections. I want to use that somehow I just don't know how.

  • @SPREADthePLAGUE1 Fankyouu ;3

  • there will be a plague rat to get at the person below me.

  • Why is she so beautiful?! Her voice, her personality, everything<3

  • Alas! I can listen too this on my phone and ipod!! Oh how missed this

  • I love EA, I want to sing one of her songs for my schools talent shows! Anybody have any ideas on which song??

  • @randomcrazyweirdo97 I want to do that to, I'm thinking about Rapunzel, Rose Red or maybe The Art Of Suicide ? :) Of course, you have to do what you want, or how about Marry Me? I know it wouldn't be allowed in our school due to the 'So I fuck who I chose ...' but who cares anyway? She has so many nice songs, just pick your favourite :)

  • @randomcrazyweirdo97 opheliac

  • My mothers just announced im allowed a corset. Finally. Im celebrating by drinking tea and listening to my singing my heart out to emilie autumn <3

  • @IzziSaysRawr Izzy my chumly chum! x

  • What the hell is with this 163 dislikes?! who the hell are you to not like emilie!? is it because shes diffrent? is it because she sings in a morbit sort of way!?? is it cause she sings about the truth of an everyday life! You all suck who dislike Emilie! ♥♥♥

  • @Soundninja247 What about peoples view on music? Not meaning to come across as a troll or anything.. its fair enough that some people don't like Emilie Autumn. At least.. they didnt leave childish comments

  • @left4deadlover123 Well, why would people dislike it-truthful...hafe the people in my school hate songs like this cause they say "Oh she sings about suicide, she must be emo, she must cut herself. If you like her your just the same your weird for liking her. she's proubly going to kill herself." I have acctully MET Emilie she is a beautiful talented women, and she is nothing like what they say.

  • Why are here some still alive? if being dead is better?!

  • @missbruisedbutterfly because dear, this is a sarcastic song you dimwit.

  • @MyImperfections1 whats dimwit, you dimwit?!!

  • @missbruisedbutterfly Honey, she isn't saying suicide is great. She's basing it on an era when women - and men, - thought it was glamourous to kill themselves. She's singing it sarcastically, and people only committ suicide when there's nothing to live for, so the reason why everybody hasn't just fucked it and died, is because they know there's something waiting at the end of the rainbow.

  • @MyImperfections1 Thanks ;)

  • @missbruisedbutterfly No problem ;D

  • I can't help but go "AaAaAhhh..." After every few sentences in the chorus because of listening to the acoustic version of this song.... ;)

  • @MyImperfections1 Yep, if I heard someone singing this in class trying to be different I'd have to run out of the room laughing. But it is a great song and has so much deeper meaning than "life is meaningless, let's kill ourselves!" It's the opposite :)

  • <333 this song so much!!! <333

  • well... ima go kill me self now thxs for that extra push emillie

    jkjkjk

  • @miritsune2 lollllll

    thats an amazing song <3

  • when i hear this i picture a samuri stabbing himself

  • Holy shit, I remember this song. I had no idea what the lyrics were, but the music was pretty. Whoohoo, new things learned!

  • Music's alright but her fans need to stop bragging about being emo. You're clearly not depressed.

  • @midnightwallflower ikr, the song is completely sarcastic. people just sing this in class, because they are 'emo wannabes' and that's PATHETIC, and anyway.. emo's a music genre? and it means emotional. stupidity is getting worse than ignorance.

  • Happy Birthday Emilie Autumn!

  • At first I felt kinda guilty for liking this song, thinking it was actually promoting suicide, until I watched an interview of her saying that the song is actually sarcastic the entire way through. It's putting down the phase the Victorian age went through that women committing suicide was glamorous. I just love her.

  • It's good to see a lot of younger kids still listening to E.A opposed to pop music. I remember being 15 when I started listening to E.A. I'm 21 now and still love this woman. :)

  • "What If" I knew what to "Swallow" to cause "The Art Of Suicide" so "I Want My Innocence Back" now because don't you know that "Dead Is The New Alive". "306" people thought so, so meet me at "4 o clock" I'd fly "Across The Sky" for you, for "Ever". "Faces Like Mine" have "Heard It All" "How Strange" that you call me "Rapunzel" when I am "Juliet". Don't be a "Liar." I am "Gothic Lolita" and I am an "Opheliac."

  • @MyImperfections1 That actually made sense. :D

  • @Shatteraven Why thank you.

  • @MyImperfections1 Very clever *freak nod of approval*

  • I think emilie is a buetiful person (both her looks and music) and I did a speech about her, people thought I was a weirdo caused I played this song and made them all sad!!!

    But oh well

    GO EMILIE AUTUMS!!!!

  • @NerdsLoveGamers Spell her name right? God.

  • If she sang something with Vitas it would be epic

  • oops, i just read the description. . XDXD disregard my previous comment. ^ ^

  • Everytime ive clicked on this video wsa to listen to the song, not for the lyrics (i already knew the lyrics) so i just noticed: 1:40 it says "Veins displayed" but it's "ankles displayed" she even said (i think she said it on "interview with EA" on the 2nd disk of Opheliac) "I dare you to find another song that says the word 'ankles' and you will get a prize. . which is for me to stop being annoying . . okay..." Heh, gotta love emilie (and its true - not alot of songs say "ankles")

  • @EveL666SoToxic I believe she said "ankles displayed" because in the victorian era, women would cover their body, even in summer. Women who showed their ankles where classed as prostitues. Although I'm not too sure of the meaning behind it in this song, I just thought you might like to know a little fact (:

  • @SoulessOutcast I think it's because she didn't care and had given up covering herself by this point. As you would be if you were about to jump off a bridge. :-P

  • @BoyWithBlackWings07 Maybe, everyone finds different meanings about this song. It depends on who you are and what mood you are in (:

  • In an era of guitars, sometimes it's good to hear a song almost entirely violin.<3

  • I was listening to this song and my sister reached over to the speakers. I thought she was gonna turn it dow so I was gonna smack her hand away... she turned it up XD

  • It seems to me like this is both kind of sarcastic and authentic... like the verses are putting down the "art" of suicide, and more speaks to people being over dramatic, or it being treated as somehow glamourous, while the chorus and the end are more authentic emotion...

    Any one else get that feeling, or am I just crazy? XD

  • @hiddenshadow0723 That's not the case, it's only a stage act dude.

  • @hiddenshadow0723

    Autumn's lyrics are twisted in the sick sense kind of way... if you get what im trying to say here.

    I love her lyrics anyways :)

  • this song is so beautifully dark

  • Why live a life

    That's painted with pity And sadness and strife

    Why dream a dream

    That's tainted with trouble And less than it seems

    Why bother bothering

    Just for a poem Or another sad song to sing

    Why live a life

    Why live a life

    My favorite part... :D

  • @lillyevans420 i always thought it was 'why live a lie' rather than life!

  • @Zakith21 i looked it up online and was like "really? i thought it was why live a lie?" lol!

  • @lillyevans420 that is my favorite part too :)

    ~Spider

  • im only 65 and im a gothic girl, and im addicted to thinking about death. all my friends are dead.

  • i think that's the most beautiful song she's ever done... when someone suicide, its not because he/she wants to end his/her life, it's because he/she can't stand suffering anymore

  • why live a lie !!

  • Love the lyrics, hate the voice...

  • One Of My Friends Sang Rapunzel In The Talent Show,She Won,And She Also Became A Singing Teacher Even Tho She's 16! Now Everyone In My School Knows About Emilie Autumn And I'm Happy :)

  • This song was to stop her from doing it, again, and to snark at people who think this is a "way out" besides you know, changing your own life.

  • Omg. Amazing reference in this song. " Gloomy Sunday " Is by a Hungarian artist named Rezso Serres. It's alternate name is " The Hungarian Suicide Song ". You see Rezso wrote this song after being separated from his female companion. So he channeled all the misery of a war-torn country and broken hearted man into this song. After it's release the song was found playing beside many people who had committed suicide.

  • Why live a life?! why live a life?! because not all of us are whiny emos like you why have everything they could possibly want but still complain becasue they're so ungrateful

  • @the2009guy No, you're not a whiny emo, you're just a whiny git who seems to have nothing better to do but insult other people's music.

  • @the2009guy Fuck you. Get of the page BITCH.

  • @the2009guy IF YOU FUCKING DIDN'T KNOW. SHE SAID THAT THIS WAS BASICALLY SARCASM AND THAT SUICIDE IS NOT BEAUTIFUL. IDIOTIC BITCH.

  • @RawrRItsYash Wow, chill out you crazy bitch XD

  • @the2009guy I LOVE YOU TOO!!

  • @the2009guy You come here insulting. People react to it, because music has a lot of value. And now you are like ''UMAD BRO''?. I mean, really?! Come on.

  • @BlueLuLu7 I didn't say ''umad bro'' or some annoying shit like that, i just told her to chill the fuck out. and leaving a comment is leaving my opinion, and this is MY opinion. I didn't say i hate the song, i think the music is great, and i even liked it, but i don't agree with the idea of the lyrics in it, and i think the massege she gives here is really really wrong (at the very least). I don't know about you but i think like is beautiful and this is a wonderful world.

  • Comment removed

  • Nahh. Just because you don't like Emilie means you have to hate. Go listen to the music you like before start complaining. These "whiny emos" you say may not just like Emilie. They may like other music as well. Like me. I go from Emilie to Lady GaGa. They are both my role models.

  • @RawrRItsYash I NEITHER FUCKING HATE EMILIE, NOR THIS FUCKING SONG, I JUST DON'T AGREE WITH\ LIKE THE MEANING OF IT!!!!!!!!!!! suiciding is a very selfish and stupid thing to do. when you suicide all the people who love you and close with you. not to mention this life are our most precious gift and you'll have to be a crazy basterd to end them. that's why no matter how miserable MY life we'll be i'll never kill myself

  • @the2009guy THEN DON'T COMPLAIN ABOUT "Emos" IF YOU DON'T HATE EMILIE DO YOU NOT REALISE THAT THIS WAS SARCASM MEANING YOUR FUCKED UP OPINION WAS NOT NEEDED HERE.

  • @RawrRItsYash OK, I FUCKING GET IT, IT'S SARCASTIC, JEEZ!!!!!! But you think my opinion about suiciding is fucked up?! forget about the fucking song, ok?!, but when your saying MY opinion about suiciding is fucked up that means you encourage suiciding!, do you?

  • @the2009guy suicide should always be a personal choice, and neither condoned nor condemned

  • @the2009guy I do not encourage suicide. I hate the fact that you said EMOS. People who want to commit suicide are people who are fucking abused and who have no one to fucking comfort them. They're the ones who get put down so fucking much they want to DIE. And here you go saying they're "complaining" and that they're "so ungrateful."

  • @RawrRItsYash Well, at least *most* of the suiciders feel that way..

  • @the2009guy I know a lot of people, and I mean a LOT of people, who feel like killing themeselves and it's all because of some or the other problems with their lives.

  • @RawrRItsYash People who speak like that are just too immature to deal with the harsh reality of life. Maybe we should just let them live in their dream world they have made for themselves, seems sad that they take it out on people who are vunerable tho. :(

    Also lol at "suiciding..."

  • @BoyWithBlackWings07 Kay I agree. Lol yeah. "Suiciding" XD

  • @RawrRItsYash Lol yeah that made me think "what an idiot." Also "Crazy basterds" lol. It's so sad what Emilie has been through, it's great to see her where she is now, vibrant and fun. <3

  • @the2009guy Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean it's right. People commit suicide because of emotional trauma, or when they finally realise (in their view) that life is no longer worth living. Your opinion is that of an insensitive child, and the fact that your argument degenerates into 'you encourage suicide' implies you have little understanding of how to formulate a counter view. It's true that people are allowed to think what theyh want, but it honestly doesn't mean you can say it.

  • @Zakith21 one more replay and i'll become suicidal. i get you guys's fucking point, that's alright, now leave me the fuck alone. ok, bitches?

  • @the2009guy Honestly, you remind me of somebody I know...

    Constant swearing won't help anything, and may even hurt a person's feelings. In fact, you, might even turn out to be a reason people commit suicide. Either you swear that much as you be so inconsiderate of others in real life, or it's something you enjoy to do online. If it's only online, keep it online. Calling us "bitches" doesn't help your opinion at all, and it will only start more flaming.

  • @Shatteraven Your actually an idiot. why do you think there's a deep meaning in evry word people say. don't you think your overeacting?! i call every one bitches becasue that's funny\ friendly, i don't really mean they're bitches!.i have no idea what did i say to make you think i'm a reason people kill themselves. and quite honestly you made me laugh my ass off. how you take every goddamn fucking i say so seriously XD you'll have to be a real sensitive faggot to get offended so fucking easily =\

  • @the2009guy Lol xD Calling someone a bitch isn't funny OR friendly, I think you're VERY misinformed. Whoever told you that is also misinformed. Maybe I am overreacting, although, if you have no reason to type it, then don't. I told you. Calling people bitches can hurt their feelings, and put them in a mental downstate. Unless - of course - you're going to insult them for that too. I don't really care if I make you laugh. Atleast I can express humor vibes of I take everything so seriously, yes?

  • @Shatteraven if I take everything so seriously*

  • @Shatteraven Christ, don't you ever quite?

  • @the2009guy Quite? Do you mean quit? And no, I don't.

  • @Shatteraven Well, you should. that would be much healthier for the both of us

  • @the2009guy I accept that you don't like this song, and that's alright, even if you don't even like Emilie Autumn. I'm just saying, you could just say "this is my opinion and I'll leave it at that" than calling other people "bitches". It would probably provoke less flaming and you wouldn't have to keep commenting.

  • @Wyitify Grr..I posted on a different account. x_x

  • @Wyitify Gaaad!!!! i don't mean literally ''bitches'', that's today sassy and naughty language. when i see my friends i'm saying stuff like: ''sup, bitches'' but i don't *really* mean that. i was born in the 90's, there's nothing i can do about it :D

  • @the2009guy Sorry, OCD. You're* and in response to your first word, there is always a deeper secondary meaning when people speak. you listen to what they mean, not what they say ...unless you're about as adept at reading emotions as a computer.. finally, the fact you used 'faggot' in a derogatory just shows what a master of communication you are.

  • Comment removed

  • @the2009guy Firstly suicide is not a verb. Secondly people who commit suicide are not selfish, they are people who have had enough of the world treating them like shit, people who suffer from depression and eating disorders which tell them every day that they are worthless, people who have been raped and beating and mentally abused, people who do not wish to suffer anymore. Why should people condone a life like this, also sometimes people are suffering with terminal illnesses...

  • and they live in a country where Euthanasia is not an option. Do you think people should live like this? I do not. I don't expect you to understand, because you seem to only be about ten, and have a very idealogical view of the world, but maybe when you're mature enough to understand, you can comment. Until then, please refrain from voicing your skewed views, bare in mind that the families of suicide victims may be online, and may not like to hear their loved one described as "crazy basterds"

  • @the2009guy well this song is extremely sarcastic. Btw she's been raped and molested, she had a miscarriage, was locked in an asylum that treated it's patients horribly. You really can't make that judgment. She's saying suicide shouldn't be glamorized at most people do.

  • @RavenEvanescence I'd consider suiciding only if someone close to me will die, but i can see your point. and someone else already told me that song is sarcastic, altough it sounds like she really mean that...

  • @the2009guy she tried once. when she had a miscarage. But I guess that was the point of the song.

  • @the2009guy Lol. obviously not smart enough to understand such song..

  • Comment removed

  • Hey! Emilie you need to be nicer to my friend and cheer up would ya?

  • Randomly had this song in my head, now it makes sense to me...

  • Emilie Is awesome. I'm not all into her style but if you listen to her music it really has meaning. I really love her music. I think people should read about her on Wikipedia and see her life. She is awesome, She is just amazing. She's been through a lot. She's not fake shes completely real

  • gorgeous song and gorgeous chick

  • This song is so heartfelt!!! and touching!!! its like she knows how I feel and what Im going through!... I love her

  • Let The Record Show that Dead Is The New Alive. Why live a life thats painted with sadness and pity and strife? This is The Art Of Suicide. Becuase If I am lolita, then you are a criminal and you should be killed by an army of little girls. I am Gothic Lolita. <3

  • This is ART

  • You worship satan

    christian worship jesus

    what the difference? jesus is satan

    Fail.

  • @utrophy i worship satan sooooooooo dont judge me

  • She is just Emilie if you dontlike this music then why are you here? She is the awsomest o me but should be to you

  • TOP COMMENT'S LIKES:

    MrAlbertbell: 74

    Autumnlovex: 47

    OMG!!!!!!!!

  • EA is awesome and I am very glad Russia made me listen to her. Her songs are about more then love and drugs and alcohol, like most of the music I hear on the radio. EA should be more loved than she is, and to those people who say she is too dark, just shut up, and actually listen to the meaning of her songs. She is amazing. She actually has talent in writing and in her voice. I love EA! :D

  • @lillyevans420 you're welcome :P

    (No, I'm not stalking your comments.)

    ~Russia

  • @TheInsanePenguin23 its fine, gurl stalk my comments all you want!

  • @TheInsanePenguin23 OMG hetalia is everywhere

  • @sunchilde68 Weep not, fair knight. Understanding and second sight, magic (Real) are a huge burden and curse. You LOVE, reject lust, where so many others failed. I bless thee. Even the greatest, Laoliken /Merlin was a madman; he helped the Greatest of all, known as ARTHUR,who sinned,was betrayed,but had it in his heart to forgive,something divine,and knew his Sins. Morgana was wonderful too. Pendragon was not,giving Cornwall the land to the sea,for want of Igerna.You are not treacherous! )O(

  • so i sang thisz song for my talent show!(:

    and my principal decided to put me in counseling

    emilie autumn no matter what!<3

  • @LiaLoveMeNot dudette that is so cool xD

    "high five" to that

    i actually saw your comment before this y'know the one about wondering whether or not to sing this in the talent show :D

  • @LiaLoveMeNot She would be proud you dreamt your dream, despite it being tainted with trouble, and that you bothered, just for another sad song to sing.

  • @LiaLoveMeNot

    I love this song too. It was kinda obvious a song like this sang in public would make them worry because they didn't understand it. SOOO show them how amazing the song is. Because it really is, and it sucks that no one would try to clear the misunderstanding.

  • @LiaLoveMeNot THIS JUST MADE MY DAY LOL :D

  • @LiaLoveMeNot Haha! He should have known that the entire song is completely sarcastic; said by Emilie herself.

    She's amazing!

  • @LiaLoveMeNot I try not to listen to this song around my family because I have depression and they'd probably think the worst lol but this song actually helps me a lot :D

  • shes so pretty :)

  • I remember listening to this in like 2005 when I was in 8th grade. So long ago.

  • she is such a good song writer. my songs r not half as good as hers!!

  • @sunchilde68 Your real second sight should tell you what you know to be be TRUE, please don't let shadows, shades like paranoia and "what if's" taint it...I am a 'homo ('womo'?) fatuus (mad WOMan); I too am cursed with second sight and craziness like Laoliken, Myrddin, Merlin. I am a Medb / Maeve...but not Queen Maeve, Lady Medb...With the strength of Brigit (we are Brigantees, NorWest Fawl Cha). Da gaol agam ort! )O(

  • Isn't it "Tainted with pity and sadness and strife" not "Painted?" Either way it's beautiful. :') Her best song lyrically. Xxx

  • @BoyWithBlackWings07 No, it's painted with pity and tainted with trouble, alliteration :)

  • @cherrydawgninja "Painted with pity and sadness and strife"

    "Tainted with trouble and less than it seems"

    Aw man, she is the most perfect writer ever. <3

    She should be earning billions.

  • @BoyWithBlackWings07 She really should! Her lyrics are beautiful, her voice is beautiful, her music is beautiful... She's beautiful!

  • @cherrydawgninja Beautiful, intelligent, talented... so unfair lol!

  • Because you LOVE, Sunchilde68. The sun will come shining through...You have a heart of Platinum, and understanding is your curse.Embrace it, don't hide. A wonderful song...)O(

  • people! the dislike button is NOT the download button for the last time!~

  • @inchaustigirl

    Probably 159 Bieber fans! X D

  • Oh, I get it now! Trolls like to be jackwagons so you waste your time scrolling through the comments looking for them! I feel enlightened now.

  • @sammi5133 You wouldn't believe how many times I've scrolled through comments just trying to see the context a top rated comment was taken in XD

  • I was all ready to hate this, but the lyrics, and the song in general are really good.

    bah..

  • Dear lovely @wingedzephyr, i completely enjoy your work, but it's 'ankels displayed not veins'. both are lovely tho :)

  • I love everything about her and her music. I think she and Marilyn Manson should do a collaboration. That would be amazing!

  • @huntershank I would die happy if they did <3333

  • i love her music...

  • Why bother bothering?

  • Im not a emo nor do I think im goth im just a normal 14 year old girl

  • @1coolgirl111 ditto(:
