From late 2000 to about 2003 there was an explosion of awesome alternative rock music. Then as sudden as it came, it was gone. I wish I could of stayed 21 forever.
I've loved this song ever since it came out nearly over a decade ago. Sadly this song reminds me of myself. Addicted to drugs, while life passes me by.
my best friend passed away two days ago, along with 4 other friends that were in my year level, in a tragic car accident. all i can listen to is this song.
This song does say it all. Many of my friends parents and i are very close and my best friends dad died last week. it was so heartbreaking, and this song says it all

aaaaaah...this video was one of my favorites like, ten years ago. same with the song. definitely a nostalgia-burner, but frankly i can't see why i ever liked it in the first place - the guy's voice is annoying as sin, and the bass player overplays EVERYTHING in my opinion. the video's still pretty cool though, you can tell care went into it.
This is back when emo meant something and wasn't just kids wearing all black and crying about broken hearts. Take a look at Chris in this video. He's in it for the music. What the hell happened to this genre and why is it a joke now?
I watched Requiem for a Dream the other day, and besides from confirming my waryness of drugs and the culture/dangers surrounding them, I was wondering how motion control actually works. Do you connect a camera-mechanism to the groin or something along those lines? ;P Besides from that, love the video. The fact that I've watched it atleast a dozen times is a testament to your filming skills or my fascination with the Saves the Day singers' almost unhinged jaw.
Saves the Day is one of my ALL TIME favorite bands. Man this song really takes me back....I love this song, and love this video man. P.S. I think it's awesome how you put your Mom in the video
Crazy, this just took me straight back to one of my dearest friends funeral day... Amazing record really, it opened up the back of my mind and the warmth in my heart
This is the best music video I've ever seen. The blonde lead singer reminds me of my brother, he passed away in a car wreck when he was 17. Watching this video... I imagine that's him, and all the stuff he was supposed to do. It warms my heart.
@DrDubTrick my dad passed away 5 years ago 2 days before christmas...i can relate. just hold in there buddy. the pain will never go away but it does get better. you are strong, i know man. this song is perfect and i sing it LOUD and proud. i love it and it is full of emotion. for those who have lost someone just hang in there and listen to lots of beautiful songs like this.
@DrDubTrick i know how u feel man... my mom left me my dad and my brother after 23 years, my dad couldnt go on and my brother found him hanging in our garage.. your not alone with the pain, just remember to live on with his light and use the knowledge you gained from him. Much Love mate!!
It might sound a little gay but every time I hear this song and watch the video it chokes me up a little bit. It's a great tale of life and death, two things I am incredible scared of lol. Nevertheless, I love it every time; this band was one of my favorites all throughout high school.
i remember this song coming out in 2001, i had just kicked an eight year heroin addiction. always loved it because it makes me think of all the pals of mine who didnt make it i.e. dead.
This video is so emotionally charged... when I watch it I kindof feel thed tears welling up in my eyes. It's such a great song. My wife and I just saw it played live the other day and it was one of the better moments in my life, I'd say.
I first heard this song on a mix cd my stepmom's best friend gave me when I was about 7. I loved this song. I lost the cd so I've been looking for the missing tracks...
Such a great track. Wish I was living back in the years this was released. Makes me so sad that most music released these days is so fuckin' shite compared to this...
I'm a big STD fan, but at first I didn't really like this song. I do love this video though, and the song has grown on me. Thanks for giving this song more of a chance because the video is great.
This is one of the first music videos that ever got me into good music, I saw it when I was in 9th grade on "All Things Rock" on mtv at like 3 in the morning, I seriously couldn't get enough after that. I feel like I grew up to you guys, I'm seeing you tonight in Cleveland, it's gonna be epic. Amazing job guys!
@heymynameisdave thanks. it was motion control. we built two sets for the life story, and chris was filmed in front of a green screen (except for the initial walk up that he does). not sure if that answers your questions, but we've given longer answers on a few DVD commentary tracks that also include behind the scenes footage where you can see the set, rig, etc.
@heymynameisdave Time lapsed for background scenes frames with him singing is a different place with a green screen and he is actually standing still the scenes showing his life is actually spinning and those take forever and major respect to this. great job :)
I'm a senior in high school getting ready for college. I've been grappling recently with the inevitability of growing up, and the fleeting thing that is life. This video just punched me in the stomach T.T
The video does add a very nice apect to the song, but its an amazing song stand alone, saves the day is and has been my favorite band for quite some time now and ive always loved this song with or without this video...
Great memories from when I used to listen to this song on my way to house parties with my buddies during my university years......I always remember digging the bassline on this track, was sick.
My friend took his life the other day, this song was one of our favorites back in the day. Watching this made me break down and cry, he didn't make it as far along as the lad in the video. Thanks for this, it means a lot to me.
totally forgot about this song then jst 5 mins ago started singing it out of the blue, i thought fuck that is a great song, cant find my album but lucky u posted this video, thanx man great vid.
i found this song in 3rd grade and i loved it.. after that i couldnt remember the name of it =( now 14 years old i found it again realizing what it means =O
