Rise Against - But Tonight We Dance

[xTheFifthBeatlex]

Anyone else noitce that there's a Rise Against logo on Sam's wall in the first Transformers? Great song.

[peachrocker1]

i used this song to write my sonnet for English class in college back in september 2011. time sure does fly

[JosiahTheMusicNinja]

Thumbs up if you cant find guitarownerlol's comment fucking anywhere.

[legendofzelda4life1]

I cant wait to go to their concert this month :D

[shroomedmario]

i feel that its the willingness to reach our happiness no matter but hey everyone has their own way of view things really awesome song though :D

[TheCoolGuitaristGuy]

@shroomedmario yay! for fucks sake people!! there IS someone who makes sence in this world :)

[TheSameAsYou14]

i love rise against <3

[CollapseGFX]

@ShatteredElement1 Not even close...

[ShatteredElement1]

I'm pretty sure this song is about how him an his girlfriend/significant other are having many problems. But they've gone through so much already, so he wants to just forget about all the problems and be happy, even just for one night. I'm not sure if the dancing part is symbolic or not. Then if things still don't work out, they end their relationship (tomorrow we'll give this one last chance).

[matiyev]

@ShatteredElement1 I think you're a bit off. If you look at any other Rise Against song, there are, indeed, some love songs. But they have an unique structure (see, Savior, The Goods Left Undone, Heads From University, etc). So, if you take this song, it's more about the time one has before the situation changes, and froces you into something you don't like.

[DeathMetalSavior]

@matiyev Savior is about politics.

[TheCoolGuitaristGuy]

@matiyev "heads from university"?..... you mean "From heads unworthy"?

[Sukuli100]

i feel stupid cuz i cant interpret the meaning of this song, its obv not dancing i know that much...

[deadpool1417]

ha. 69 dislikes. I find it funny that it's that number but sad that that many people dont like this song.

[Inigoamo]

Hey, I´m not an english speaker and don´t undestand the meaning of this song, and its a pity beacuse musically it´s one of the best songs i´ve ever heard. Could anyone tell me what is this song about? Thx.

[sammi5133]

@Twuster

My day is now made XDDDD

[elsejj]

it's also on This is Noise EP

[Teleburn]

Is this on an album?

[gaaraissoawesome]

@Teleburn One of the deluxe versions of The Sufferer And The Witness

[MultiFinderman]

@gaaraissoawesome actually i believe it was on "This Is Noise"

[gaaraissoawesome]

@MultiFinderman Right you are. It's on both. (Sufferer And The Witness- international bonus track: Europe. Australian tour edition)

[kara1234nz]

this and billy talent r the best bands!!!

[intermilan43]

I've got chills

[RealizationReMix]

"A revolution without dancing is a revolution not worth having." "It's my revolution, and I'll dance if I want to." Etc.

[Gurkmassa]

I love this song! Why is it that awesome songs like this one, Elective Amnesia and Generation lost aren't released?

[TheMest23]

He says servitude and sadness i believe xD

[niknty1]

1:13 - But I speak not its tongue. The its doesn't have an apostrophe. that "it's" is the form for "it is." just saying...

[deathbymarblz]

@niknty1 stfu...

[niknty1]

@deathbymarblz umad?

[AEgamesFtw]

@niknty1 Wrong. it's does have an apostrophe when referring to an object belonging to something else.

[niknty1]

@AEgamesFtw Wrong on your end. "Its" is the possessive form. "It's" is the subject and linking verb form, or "It is." Look it up online, skippy.

[AEgamesFtw]

@niknty1 good job on being trolled

[niknty1]

@AEgamesFtw Mission accomplished.

[conversekitty20]

I hate stupid comments that get thumbs...a lot...

[deathbymarblz]

@conversekitty20 stfu noob, you'll never get thumbs no matter how much you try

[conversekitty20]

@deathbymarblz I never wanted thumbs....u mad bro? someone has major issues, you need to get that checked out.

[deathbymarblz]

[InsaneEunice]

[TheGreyshaun]

[chewablehair]

Which album is this from??

[DeathMetalSavior]

@chewablehair Sufferer and The Witness (Bonus Track)

[chewablehair]

@DeathMetalSavior Ahh, thanks. ^.^ I hadn't heard it before. I don't have the bonus track.. D: UGH

[ithinkmynameisralf]

@chewablehair I think it's only for the Australian version.

[9085296]

@chewablehair EP This is Noise

[chewablehair]

@9085296 Kaay thanks. Doesn't This is Noise have songs from later albums on it plus extras??

[iamnuff1992]

it IS about dancing, but the important thing is its not JUST about dancing,

just because something is metaphoric doesnt mean it cant be literal at the same time.

[AlbinoGirlScout]

yayy

[eugeserres297]

go rise against!

[CHRSS111]

I CRAWL from the sinkholes*

Awesome song though, love the band!

[newblife]

i facepalm when people think this song is about dancing

[HolydarkessM]

@newblife looks like i got face palm



[newblife]

@HolydarkessM think n read, my friend

[emoboisrule]

@newblife

I thought it was about emotional turmoil, and staying up so engrosed in the love you share with someone that your incapable of doing anything but staring into eachothers eyes. course I suppose it could be about sex.

[newblife]

@emoboisrule wow! finally someone who actually thinks further than what they see, thanks man. i think ur 100% right. even though i dont really understand all the words.

[D3M0NH3R0]

@newblife :P

[Boxing4L]

@newblife It hurts to see that some people think this song is about dancing ):

[NickIsReviews]

I love how a band that is singing about the change the world needs and that people need to unite against those pulling us down, has the most people arguing in the comments.

[purpleflipperz]

@NickIsReviews I think it's because rise against's music and music videos are provocative in the sense that they're all so loaded with meaning that it makes people think about their opinions and want to tell them to the world. and since everyone has different opinions about everything no matter what you do, people argue a lot on their videos because their emotionally charged up. But you're right, it is ironic.

[NickIsReviews]

@purpleflipperz Oh yeah. I mean it doesn't surprise me and I know why. But the band's main point is to unite the people of America to make changes for our environment and the world in general. And people are arguing in the comments. It's kind of dumb.

[newblife]

@NickIsReviews haha youre right

[Dioskrosey]

@testdummy56 What exactly do i know that is "true" sir? And i believe my first amendment right allows me freedom of speech.

[Dioskrosey]

@testdummy56 Is that appropriate language? There could be children watching! Mind your manners, sir.

[Neon333srbija]

RISE AGAINST DA BEST

[Dioskrosey]

Why does this make me think of Twilight princess?

[sbcistheboss]

@Dioskrosey It does to me too. Great game as well.

[TechWrecker]

@Dioskrosey The only connection I can think of is they're both amazing?

[Dioskrosey]

@TechWrecker That is true. Maybe thats's what he meant!

[Darkpure312]

Not only do they relate to things in my life but the have so many meanings and meanings of life in them, some hidden, some obvious, some that can be taken many ways, and some that are written in stone.

[zackattackx3]

anyone else going to suggest this at the prom?

[asiademon]

@KnightmareSephiroth I think all men can relate to you. I too feel this way. "She" has been constantly ruining my life time and time again. But always she manages to speak the words that keep me coming back. I'm assuming many people go through this.

[DubItLikeThat]

@321MusicGal You know, all of us feel oppressed at some time. I don't know if you're in love or not, if you're in a relationship/marriage, but we look to our significant other as a source of refuge - someone to talk matters about or to help cope along the path of life. It gets rocky. This song implies that there will be a hand to hold when faith is lost or when you feel like you want to give up. And you may not know their sorrow, but knowing that you share sorrow and empathy gives the comfort.

[metal0519]

best song since zach join rise against

[pepsihockey05]

@metal0519 could be wrong but I thought this was before zach,,, It came on my Sufferer album, I thought it was an unreleased Bside from that album

[jsh020]

@metal0519 this came out right before zach joined, like litterly right before, his best song is probably somthing off of engame or the 2009 ep.

[metal0519]

@jsh020 ok men i just thought that! LOL anyway they should play this great song on their every tour

[jsh020]

@metal0519 they have alot of great songs they have yet to play live, i really want to hear death blossoms and rumours of my demise live more than anything

[gaaraissoawesome]

@jsh020 Yeah, and THe Approaching Curve might be cool live too. Not sure though.

[jsh020]

@gaaraissoawesome i dont know if that'd be cool honestly, hes just talking, they are such a energectic band i dont thin k just reading poetry would be good live,

i mean somthing like rumours of my demise and death blossoms where its all fats pace din your face(and the bonus is both have screaming )

[gaaraissoawesome]

@jsh020 Yup, you have a point there.

[metal0519]

@jsh020 but this song was the best song that they didn't play live dude

[321MusicGal]

I have NO idea why, but this song brought tears to my eyes.

Explain why it could've happened would be helpful? Please? I don't usually cry at songs and this just isn't a sad song. I don't get it.

Be a jack ass and call me a pussy, I won't be nice.

Thanks!

[DeathMetalSavior]

@321MusicGal They were tears of joy, they are common when one listens to this song.

[321MusicGal]

@DeathMetalSavior

That' so true

[ScienceWillPrevail]

This is my theme song for detassling corn, fits perfectly for the lyrics.

[HAsmatarian]

Hell yeah!!! WOW! Love Rise Against! listening to a lot of Rise Against, Hey You!, The Offspring, and No Doubt lately....

Hey You! is still pretty new but they're really dope. cute singer girl too :-) check em out.

type in "hey you band taking over"

[AnchoredWithADragon]

67 people don't dance~

[ZeroUltimateKey]

does this almost match the storyline of Kingdom Hearts II? just a bit....

[Bunji567]

Im pretty sure its i CRAWL from the sinkholes, collapsed under this weight. but whatever.

[TheLobster324]

everyone should listen to death blossms by rise against.. its on my channel and im trying to get it more popular because its a great song!! so please watch and listen!

[RISEANDBREAKING]

@guitarownerlol fishing for thumbs up eh? thats gay

[YummyCookiesHuh]

@7028297 granted he may be wanting thumbs, there is no need to say "that's gay." Have you not realized the term you're actually using. Listen to "Make it Stop (September's Children)" and maybe just maybe you'll understand why you shouldn't be saying that. good day sir/madam.

[yeahhhhhhhh9]

I know for a fact that you guys aren't typing your petty retorts while the song is playing. Impossible to argue at the same time. :) (Wait...Does that make me a hypocrite? O.o )

[00Powell]

religion is a joke. its the cause for millions of deaths, knock knock, whos there? evolution

[Monk9235]

@00Powell Just to clear things up; Religion doesn't cause deaths... No current religion (to my knowledge) says "Go out and kill all people who aren't like us!" there just isn't one, is there? In the Muslim religion it says whoever dies in a Jihad will go to heaven, but it isn't saying "Go out and kill others". So it's how people practice and interpret their religion that people get killed, not the religion itself.

[00Powell]

@Monk9235 i mean that due to religion many wars have been started, obviously i didnt mean any religion said "thou shalt kill"

[panteloni21]

@Monk9235 sorry monk but religion have killed many peolple in the past. Just because it's not doing it now doen't mean it didn't happen in the past. Try reading some history from the "crusaders" and back and u'll understand. As for religions in general MY OPINION : is that they are all just a way for the people with power to control the countries. Through history there are countless examples of that. Anyways.. sorry if i offended u.. just my opinion. :)

[Monk9235]

@panteloni21 Eh, no offence taken, =p I'm not a very religious person, I'm more laid back with it than compared to others. But, to be honest, I was just on another video right before this one where someone completely insult every religion O_o so you kind of got the whipwash from that. =p Great to see we everyone has different opinions though =p

[Monk9235]

@00Powell Also, just to add on... I have MANY friends who are very religious and they believe in evolution. It's people who don't understand it is where we see problems. Now, I personally believe we were put on this Earth to go through evolution, and many others do too... So, your comment is a joke.

[dragon3877]

its because of religion that we humans arnt out in space right now.......

[GanGreenSkittle]

just found this song today and i've already listened to it two dozen times

[GanGreenSkittle]

@dragon3877 Actually it's because of the germanic tribes that caused the fall of the roman empire, religion was actually one of the only things that held people together during that time. So please learn your history before make a ignorant comment like that. Thank you.

[dbzfanable]

vvvvvvv no

[HamBurgerWalrus]

66 People had no one to dance with

[Jaimree]

@HamBurgerWalrus

 lmao

[THEONLYnirvananut]

Great video man!! Hate it when the lyrics dont sync up, but you F'N nailed it.

[PsshThatsRandom]

I had a dream last night that I had walked three days to go see the guy I like (it would literally take three days to walk to where he lives from where I live) and in my dream, after I got there and hugged him, I randomly pulled out a guitar and sang this song. It's such a perfect song for our story.

I really want to sing this to him now...

[williampatrickwoods]

i saw a comment with way more than 27 thumbs up

[mcmcman2]

im going to jail for raping the replay button

[ReaperSho]

For people thinking this song is about a girl, it isn't. It's about Carpe Diem (Latin for 'seize the day').

[ShortLilAsian01]

this is a perfect song that just told the story of y i fell in love with my bf

[KnightmareSephiroth]

I find it astonishing how Rise Against's music, every song, holds some significance in my life, like this song for instance: Every time I heard this or got it stuck in my head, I thought about 'her' (I'm not telling you all my business, no offense). That's a pretty strong reason why I love this band. Awesomeness incarnate.

[acedespada31]

@KnightmareSephiroth haha...you and me both man. Rise Against just knows how to connect with everyone

[KnightmareSephiroth]

@acedespada31

Exactly. Words of truth right there :D

[nandogentilini]

@KnightmareSephiroth You read a deep feeling, I could not describe better.

[KnightmareSephiroth]

@nandogentilini Thanks, very very much :D

[colie577]

@KnightmareSephiroth I hate to break it to you, but that's what they do to sell records. They make lyrics that can apply to anyone, so that when people hear it they think "OMG I can relate to it so much."

Really, if you listen to their songs you find that they're basically the same thing just said in a different way, I've been a fan for years.

[colie577]

@KnightmareSephiroth Their lyrics are really vague.

[AQrippin]

@KnightmareSephiroth I can relate to you, except for the fact that EVERY song I hear reminds me of 'her'. It's a goddamn curse and I wish 'she' could just leave my thoughts for at least an hour.

[KnightmareSephiroth]

@AQrippin I understand man. Just keep hoping, it's tough shit to move on I know, I had to go through it recently, ut I still have my 'her'...

[TankeNizoR]

@KnightmareSephiroth it is ....but this song seems different from what they usually do....sounds like a rock ballad ...sort of :P

[KnightmareSephiroth]

@TankeNizoR Me personally, I'd use the word symphony, but that works anyway :D

[TankeNizoR]

@KnightmareSephiroth ^_^

[iamtheownage123]

It semms tht almost all of the rise against videos i go to the comments turn into fights about religion wtf?

[MegaCooley47]

@iamtheownage123

Probably because a lot of different people like RA and then in the comments section someone says something stupid like "I don't know how some people believe in the spaghetti monster". I've decided that these people are trolls.

[ninjapranks]

guys lets stop, everyone has a power to choose how they live their life and what they believe, leave each other alone

[ishotthesherifswife]

@ninjapranks but if they are relgious they cannot have to choose how to live their life, are are forced to follow the rules or they people who inttoduced them to the various books persuade them if they dont follow they are condemed to hell. this is a viscious cycle. this is religion.

[stiefmegan]

Rise Against is pretty amazing... Their songs pack so much meaning behind the words. It's unfourtunate that only a few bands today can have the same said about them.

[jdhaist13]

Great so theres probably a huge argument on religion on this video too...shit...

[AndrewSMi95]

How about this why would god want to be worshiped? Just be a good person and if there is a heven or an afterlife then youll be fine if i have to worship a god to get into heven or any afterlife i would rather go to hell for my free will than to heven for complet and uter servitud. but lets stop talking about religion lets just lissen to music.

[errorafterdark]

why did this come 2 religion??? im confused

[gohaster]

@errorafterdark it happens alot in music videos, i'ts just non-sense.

[hyperspeed7889]

@errorafterdark ??

[errorafterdark]

@hyperspeed7889 What?

[AGJM233]

@errorafterdark why isn't this a religion?????? thats what im confusued about :)
