Making April's Roses and Butterflies - The Original

[ChadLegault]

His voice brings tears to my eyes

and I'm not ashamed to say this.

[dudefromtheearth]

Wow this guy sure put his heart and soul into it. Great job!

[TDWPrulezd00d11]

who found out this song because of the sonny moore tribute video.

[NNZ000General]

To those who are confused the by the candles, the scents and dancing flames inspire the musician to cling to the emotions felt when the song was written. When I write and play songs, I often light candles before hand. It really helps and is amazing.

[jessasweetie]

wow he put so much emotion singing. i love his voice :)

[JoseDeLaPurgatorio]

hoy ayg pakauwaw dira!!!

[JMichaelFowlkes]

Why are there always candles when they film acoustic versions of songs or do unplugged series lol

[rwfmade]

@JMichaelFowlkes

lol so happy you pointed that out. its rly cliche. wasn't a fan of it at the time. only way it'd be worth something is if u could light the entire studio w/ 100% pure candlelight, but that would require a very big candle budget and a fire marshal present

[rwfmade]

@JMichaelFowlkes eh, but sometimes when u have sheer talent in front of u, n ur an enthusiast w/ no money, u say, "they're not looking at the foreground, they're not looking at the background, they're listening to the music"

[TheRealChiefVlogger]

Great song, great video! Nice job Rocky!

[soccer81490]

great song

[miccoloterz]

is this a cover?

[SkyeMudd]

@miccoloterz I think it is Cover... Iunno

[jzm501]

Now THIS guy can sing!

[godseesme]

I love the puns and metaphors in this song. Easily my favorite song in the world. Has been since it was released.

[paulpaf]

This song is crazy .. :) (check my acoustic covers ! )

[Guyasudre]

Such an amazing song! I can listen to it over and over again. Beautifully played piano with poetic lyrics. Sean is really a brilliant lyricist. Making April was truly a great band. Too bad they aren’t together anymore... :-(

[acousticroadway]

i got to open up for these guys!!!! epic!

[acevilla]

Haha, I was going through Making April videos, because they're awesome, and BAM: I SEE SUNNY! HAHAHA! I lived with Sunny for a year her senior year of college, my junior year. And she actually introduced me to Making April. Thank GOD she did...LOVE you guys.

[ej5686]

this is one of my favorite songs of all time.. i really wish they made more songs =\

[xxitsallover4u]

His voice is one of a kind and they are by far one of my favorite bands ever.

Great song, & great band. Period.

[samanthasue]

Wow, his voice is just flawless live.

[mikehoeder14]

[mikehoeder14]

[madt1447]

1:31 - 1:56 best singing i´ve ever heard...

[madt1447]

1:31 - 1:56 best singing i´ve ever heard...

[RichKing14]

like the version by Making April, this guy seem to be changing the length of some of the words and the tone and it doesn't sound smooth to me, and his voice is kinda pissing me off, and theres a cello in this? never would have guessed.

[emspirit]

I heard you on Howard Stern. I thought you did the best job. I like your sound. I could see you on the radio. Your songs tell a story and I dig you dawg. Dawg that was hawt!

[imurlight]

i feel like this verison is much calmmer. which to me feels more relaxing, great (:

[XxBethanyMarie93xX]

[CASEYYYYYYYXO]

his face doesn't suit his voice!

[stickemup121]

Yeah McCaffery's Brother!

[longngo12]

Amazing song. I can play it on the piano, but can't sing

[NurseryRhyme123]

One of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard.

[dontmindthem]

very impressive........truth is, making april's my fave band along with dashboard..they are serious musicians.....they deserve more.

[dontmindthem]

they write beautiful music....they are pure musicians!!!!!! they deserve so much recognition...rarely do you encounter such talented musicians as the ones in making april...they're my favorite along with mayday parade

[kristababayy]

I love this band.

[IJAB123]

The colaboration of all three instruments and that guy's (I don't know his name :S) voice is amazing! :D

I'm doing this for my talent show next week, mostly because it's really inspiring.

[danydeisler]

[tophelofghenna]

[OMGNOWAY17]

[franky3923]

[xopru12304ox]

<3 roses and butterflies

[keirab1991]

i like

=D

[ImaBeastmovies]

if u think this is emo blow me

[JayGarrick53]

honestly, in my own opinion, this is totally emo music, talking about roses lifting their heads to catch a glimpse of his demise

they sounds a lot like dashboard confessional, the original 'emo' band

[COMEBACKTOMESHANNON]

XDXDXD EMO?! hahahahahahahahah u r too funny man, this is far from "emo" what defines emo anyways? and whos decision is it to decide if ur emo? just some other clique? the only reason people became emo in the frist place is because they were sick of those kinds of people, this is far from emo music my friend

[RiseInGirl]

i like this version better :)

[Antis18]

love this video,this song,making april,the emo world,the oldest and the most new and love emo music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pedromendesba]

i hope one day god forgive you!

[SUGARLOLOL]

hahalol :D

[Circa669]

The emo world? How would you get there? Same way as Narnia or something? I dunno... Is there a password? Does the government know there is a secret world hidden on the earth? I dunno... Couldn't be a very happy place. It's too hot out for scarves. And this isnt emo music. Lol.

[KeysAndNotes]

lmao...ha...I agree with you.

[rustash]

...emo...what a stupid word...

[crabbb622]

...rustash...what a stupid word...

[jaygo123]

lmao

[NatCat0000]

true dat

[matteron0507]

lawl, what is the national anthem? Metal? And the flag is black with a bleeding knife? What are the requirements to go to this so called world? You must have at least one cut on your wrist? lawl, that's funny. This doesn't even sound emo.

[TamurilSilimaure]

gosh, he's so lucky - I'd have to play and sing separately. lol I end up tone deaf doing it at the same time. that...or I end up completely lacking "finger/hand/vocal pitch, tone and everything else" coordination. =/ lmao.

Beautiful song though..never heard this version, but I like it. =D Thanks so much for posting. =)

[54spiritedwill54]

just AMAZING!

[cleverruse1]

Thanks. Thought the instrument was an oversized Violin for a while... God I wish there were tabs for this version of the song... It's amazing...

[voices1987]

this song makes me sick...

very nice song...

love it...

keep up the good work guys...

your all amazing...

[soonymooreforever]

its good but i hate how he throws himself around

[0x0bulletsx0x]

some people sing weird

and make weird faces

and some people throw their hand and body around

thats just wat they do

and some people..

it helps them sing better when they do that stuff

[cleverruse1]

What's the instrument the woman is playing?

[rwfmade]

the instrument the young lady (we call her Sunny) is playing is called the Cello... that addition was done exclusively for the acoustic version and this video

[Bandgeek601]

[saturdayband]

the tuning is half step down and then you play 1 step down example if you were playin on the 7th E fret, play on the 5th fret D, you can find the tab for the electric version on their myspace :)

[b4mvrockz]

isnt this the real band??????

[rollerboi]

Yeah, I noticed it's a bit lower.

[rwfmade]

wtf?

[xlatestplaguex]

[ViolinGirlR]

amazing!

[CrusadErS2390]

i think they sound like secondhand serenade

[EmoIBondageIBunny]

Because of the acoustic. Secondhand Serenade is Acoustic as well. Alot of acoustic sounds the same. He just happens to have a acoustic voice. If you don't know what that is you can probley ask any band member. *nods* OR ask me. Im not in a band but I know quite a bit.

[lokaa1218]

what is having an acoustic voice?? =D

[qwapol]

their music is somewhat the same with mae.. damn i love this song... and yeah they sound the same with yellowcard, but more of Mae..

[wdpellerin]

theres an acoustic and electric version

[rwfmade]

thanks, i'm pretty sure i understand that! but what does it mean to "have a tab for this"?

[wdpellerin]

the guitar in the song

[WeArtEpic]

@rwfmade guitar tabs.

[wdpellerin]

does anybody have the tab for this? it looks like a different tuning

[rwfmade]

what does that mean?

[grandprize23]

the candles are nice lol

[tiagojoga]

I prefer this version than the other one

[wdpellerin]

yeah this is a better version

[maleronii]

yuck

[maleronii]

yuck

[breadisg00d]

I think this version is much better than the other one

[K3music]

i think they sound like dashboard confessional actually

[K3music]

i think they sound like dashboard confessional

[miggy911]

yeah their songs sound like songs yellowcard would play

[Dreamers1989]

this song is so gay n girly its 4 pussies!

[sakurakinomoto742]

[rollerboi]

This version is so much better than the album version. I like this one.

-Roland.
