Jimmy Eat World - The Middle (Live)

[winterbluesunday]

Fucking Awesome as always!!!

Jimmy eat and Rock my world!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheRedTyphoon186]

his voice sounds heaps better on cd

[Walter575]

can you do it better, tinman717?

[Fin25]

Guitar solo sounds good to me. It's called improvising, and not playing exactly the same thing as on the record, isn't it?

[tinman717]

wow ok so its pretty good and all for being a live performance...but the guitar solo is just disappointing. Clearly he has no idea what he's doing on the guitar...kind sad =(

[LeeLostprophets]

shit hot live, understandably exhausted looking but they pulled off an excellent performance man, big fan of J E W

[cortizjr2]

I always cringe when it comes time for a solo that I like, worrying the band and guitar player wont pull it off. I had a feeling this was one of those songs. I wish I were wrong. Play your song right, assholes.

[BringLiamTheHorizon]

i agree. it wasnt bad but its like hes trying too hard to show off then failing?

[tabio01]

thats a big drum set 0:50

[jsnake01]

It's not really that big at all, but it's bigger than you'd expect for a pop/punk act like JEW.

I see 2 fat crash cymbals, a ride and a hi-hat, two toms, a main snare (14" probably) and maybe a piccolo snare.

Really standard setup

[iate47goats]

the vids outa sync lol

[dragonmemories]

is the audio off or is he lip singing?

[sasukeblowsme]

not as good live

[Caleb48kb]

This is awesome!!!!

[aolasluke]

they sound good live. better than most bands

[SouthiscH]

They arent emos

[NukinYUall]

the solo is really cool

[bochim1443]

de acuerdo (agree)

[drumz86]

they dnt look emo?

[benedicttucker]

thats a pretty sick solo for a live performance.

[csquared6059]

aww. the guitar solo wasn't as good as it would be in the recorded version. But still, very awesome!

[funlivelife]

i love when he goes...."Everyth everything will BEEeee just fine

[chocolatemilkinmyass]

i agreeeeeee

[lilbeat21]

Incubus and 311 are some of the best live.

[jrunknjrowzy]

The Chili Peppers instrumentally....beauty.

[Waack0]

yeah RHCP are really REALLY good live!

search for Red hot chili peppers slane castle.

their best performance i have seen so far!

[jrunknjrowzy]

Yeah I agree, I've seen them before already. most of them anyways. I think that live series was what made me find and fall in love with that song "Venice Queen".

RHCP is just goodness gracious...

[mowse5552]

Linkin Park!? Probably the worst screams I've ever heard when they're live.

[christos13apoel]

wtf are u talking about I dare u listen a place for my head live rock am ring 2004 or faint live

or whatever other song that has scream

U can jujge linkin park without knowing them

so fuck off

[blindgirlsdigme]

You forgot Given Up

[Jamobra]

You're Entitled to an opinion, but so is everyone else, so don't act like yours is the only opinion.

[LinkinParkKanenite]

What are you on about? Have you even seen Linkin Park? psssshhhhh

[vezok716]

this is an awesome song but they suck live

[JokaPro]

:12-:14 sour note? :D great song :DDD

[almfacebooker]

DEMASIADO DEMASIADO :D

[woah182]

omg at 1:37 jim looks like identical to tom delonge lol :)

[HateCrewReaper]

he actually doesXDXD

[xppig]

lol i dont it is him dude it just sound weird

[GAGLMAc]

jjajajajaja this guy rocks forever and will rock even dead°!!!!!

[TheTC]

LOL This guy sucks!

Guess there really is a magic voice changing machine.

[stiansoftcore]

lawle NOT

[GamesAndMusic2009]

I have to admit it doesn't sound as good as on recording. But who does?

[owenboen67]

They are pretty much as close as it gets though

[VH12th]

Foo Fighters, Muse, paramore, Queens of the stone age, Queen, The Beatles, Eric Clapton i can go on forever xD

[TheTC]

Well it never will sound the same, but usually bands do better live.

Like Lynyrd Skynyrd, Twisted Sister, Alman Brothers Band, Cheap Trick, Aerosmith, THe Golden Earrings...

[thomasoring]

who sounds as good as on recording? Avenged sevenfold, Muse, Tool, Paramore, metallica, A perfect Circle, Bjork, Dizzy Mizz Lizzy, Kelly Clarkson, Eva Cassidy, Nirvana, ... now im tired..

[DonkaPuncher]

wow you have varying tastes in music!

[thomasoring]

To DonkaPuncher:

yeah. i like all sorts of music. classical, over Jazz to metal. :O) you should try and find something by Dizzy Mizz Lizzy.. it´s a Danish band. you can´t find much here on youtube (none of good quality that is) But try thepiratebay, or some other places. they REALLY rock!

[DonkaPuncher]

it's also hard to find Dizzy Mizz Lizzy's live stuff in good quality on youtube but they are good live.

[ljubes]

yeah is funny when someone says to me that people will laugh because i have varying tastes in playing my stuff

[DonkaPuncher]

oh well that just means we have better respect for music!

[Marcelodoido98]

\/ comment #182 =D

[cialus]

im pretty i heard tom is a fan of jimmy eat world.

[chorneitor]

tom is cool!

[hitmanbrad]

is it me or are they better live?

[GamesAndMusic2009]

It's just you.

[goodbyecadillac]

Haha, I always thought he looked like Tom Delonge. I didn't think others would recognize that, too. He even shares some on-stage moves with him, I think.

[publiclopez]

or does tom looks like him I think jimmy is Older thoug...

[supplyco94]

it sounds so different on the album

[benny704]

the fuck is that tom delonge lol

[okeylll]

hahha,,

Looks well like himm

[metallballer]

2 completely different voices

same face

lol

[bailz96rocks]

his voice sounds a bit week live

[pitch30320]

Professional quality.??? why, this is just a live band, they play way good thats all, why the fact of professional is ....?

[havoc999998]

Professional as in a pro camera guy filming them, I remember when i filmed slipknot but i was in a mosh pit so i got a shitty shot.

[UTTERKAOS1994]

I like how the video description says professional quality when the video is WAY off sync

[andyhoofit]

True but it is better than some guy recording in the mosh pit trying to aim at the stage

[bignig8]

haha he does look like Tom delonge. Coincidence becuase they are one of Tom's fav bands.

[ParaDoXx182]

Yeah I agree with, he looks a lot like him

[hahawaitwut]

most arttist do suck live, i went to go see britany spears live and oh my god...man im a bad singer but she just made me look like an american idol winner!! haha

but yeah the studio crap makes it sounds really good and THEY ALSO GET REALLY TIRED SINGING DANCING AND PLAYING AT THE SAME TIME....!!

[Cocknockerofl]

This isn't good at but I think it's better than stuff like FOB and Katy Perry. Listen to them if you want poor live singing.

[Wingen1337]

He's decent enough to be a good singer.

[duck90]

I don't understand why people think he's not singing well... he sounds pretty good here.

But if you want to see him at his best look up a live video of them playing "23".

[xWickedOne11x]

He is alot better live than katy perry and kevin rudolf

[anamonapeea]

wow he sucks when he is live

sorry dude =<

[Uchihagurl2121]

His voice is better when it isn't live... Sorry, dude.

[RoslynVA]

everyone's is

[doctorD345]

guys i =f u think they suck live look up angels and airwaves live. this band is very good live. listen to the guitars, no distortion at all. and good voice on top of it.

[sexuallobster134679]

It's 'cause he seems more concentrated on guitar.

[Krooklynx]

seriosly i hate his voice in real life

[massterofpain]

what do you mean "real life"? do you mean live?

[omg22359]

Its called a 'live show' cause its NOT supposed to be studio edited.

[Waterworks410]

umm if you've ever heard any other bands live most of them suck and sound nothing like what they do in the studio and actually jim does and he's pretty good but i guess you're entitled to your opinion

[ihatescene]

most of them do not suck live.

[Krooklynx]

he sucks in real life... to bad

[JeSRik44]

he fucking does look like Tom Delonge I swear

[bobbarker1127]

i fucking love how he changes up the intro, its beautiful no matter how he plays it

[manggat]

cool

[xblinkxmex]

he looks like tom delonge

[Keagkid]

Yupp

[JayLacelle]

lol he does...except without the baseball cap and the guitar down at his knees :)

[HIMfreak4eva]

i was just thinkin that. im going is that tom

[cherrylynxleg04]

i love this song soo much but he does suck live if any1 dosnt like this song there probably just a weird queer that every1 hates !!

[MegadethSlayer33]

this is a great song, but the singer sucks live.

[HappyHedgeHog21]

I agree he sounds terrible compared to the studio version.

[HIMfreak4eva]

yerr same

[tobaccoflavouredrink]

i think his voice sounds better than the over edited album version

[4getfull111]

[MusicViideoChannel]

jim adkins's voice doesnt sound so great live, but its actually really good

[o0aendy0o]

sa...ay..ayayay that was so coool xD

[KMGun]

Omg, I could sing better than that.

[samushi101]

No, you couldn't, you never will, nobody ever will, ever... at all.. ever... remember this, forever....

[Theproblematic]

hahah "nobody will ever " there so many better singers than him lol

still class though better on the album though :(

[incubussubucni]

the guitar solo for this song has to be one of my all time favorites...this song just rocks

[Spudster911]

mine too! I love to play it but it never sounds as good :( GO JIMMY EAT WORLD!

[heisveryevil]

i heard this song when i was watching a football bloopers video...

[Anos182]

i got hooked on this band from angels and airwaves same with the screeching weasels but these guys rule

[Brainfreezer61]

Wow there amazing live!

[Flutetone]

pure awsome

[HondaRider9Bryan]

The first CD I have ever bought was their debut album. They rock!

[samushi101]

Nice, where did u find a copy of it? Took me forever to find one for sale =d, maybe it's because I suck at looking...

[Jomommaz]

wow he reminds me of tom delonge soooo much

[unwrittenchaos]

[youbuub]

[Ocelot35]

AvA!!! I win.

[dougsusername]

blink 182 yes sir! actually tom delonge has cited jimmy eat world as an influence so you could say tom looks and sounds like this fellow

[gr33nday1946]

i think he looks more like tom delonge

[falloutblnk182]

Yea i guess kinda

But to me his face seems wider?

idk its the hair tht reminds me of tom

[makayla0908]

[fitimxharra]

it's very nice song. this song makes me to continue the dream.

[MrDeath]

[Ott0matic]

[obe19900]

I agree. I'm going back to the video...

[falloutblnk182]

How is it bad?

Hes singing is really good.

[fercho8266]

My favorite Song

[dude15480]

i saw them when they opened for Green Day here in indy, and they pulled out beast mode, they were freakin awesome

[jeffyapuncich]

Unbelievable mad skills live on that guitar, just saw them and was blown away!

[RedEyedAngels]

Too me I thought the singer was much younger, otherthan that, this band is tight!

[sofisticated70s]

i cant wait to see them on april 12

with paramore

[boobear1121]

i see them the 22nd with paramore.. so excited!

[p0rkl3t]

I see them on the 14th with Paramore

[Marbar7890]

Seeing them with Paramore on the 25th!

[Scarlettexashes]

Freakin' look at that crowd, thats nuts.

I love you Jimmy Eat World!

[AmTropf37]

Ich war in München beim Konzert. Super Truppe... Geiles Lied

[asy0ulik3]

: )

[psychoo10]

best song ever

[themotherfuckingking]

kinder yeah and he looks liek him from green wing...

[splimz111]

this is the song that got me interested in the band. By the way is it me or does the lead singer look like Jimmy Carr?

[vikki182]

I uploaded this over a year ago with the intention of sharing this video with the fans.. Not for them to squabble over the fact thats its not as immaculate as a cd version.

You have got to focus on the energy and emotion the band put into the performance and how they express the true meaning of the song.

Vikki.

[brokenwings101]

Diddo! I totally agree with Vikki. Ever try performing live before? It's hard. Major hard. So much harder than just singing. It's hard enough getting everything in tune and in time, alrite? Respect to those who can do it well.

[kabaam57]

Plus he totally rocks the guitar solo. That takes some MAD SKILLS!

[teo182tremo]

Great song! I think is the best one of Jimmy Eat World... Even if i'm not so expert of this band... ;)

[tux0ofunk]

i dont really think this is worse than in record, it's just different, but just as good, and even if it sucked that wouldnt matter, cause this song is so much more than just about the music, it's a message for everyone who has ever felt like they have to fit in to be a better person

[James12313234]

Why don't you stay with your jay z crap and we'll stick to this real music, aye?

Jimmy eat worlds one of the best bands on earth!

[lakai326]

hmmmmmm.... i like you.... lol

[robchrist91]

dis be sum gangsta stuff niggaz

[lakai326]

yall aint able tah spellz atz allll. retard.

[WhiteHand33]

I don't see what everyone's on about. Just because a band doesn't sound as perfect as they do on a CD live, doesn't mean they're crap. I've seen far worse bands live then this, what are some of you people on?

[DJSHAUNBOWAKADJCHAOS]

what a tune thanks for this up ;)

[nj293]

HOLY CRAP thats not what it sounds like on the cd i have!! this is crap

[jdrummer45]

every band is gonna sound a bit different live than on the record.. go watch any live vid on here and it will have its imperfections
