Fightstar - Palahniuk's Laughter (Live:Friday Night Project)

[paulhughes86]

1:00 Dude's like "Holy Shit, wasn't this guy in fucking Busted"

[ilovenathansykesxx]

charlie looks so dam hot here, i mean his hair <3!

[MattMoo504]

This song doesnt feel as powerful or as heavy as it does in drop b. This version sounds like its in Drop C or Drop D

[ajvirdi]

he knocks the microphone at the end lol

[irial1990]

i love omar's hair in this performance. He should have his hair cut again!!!

[seaag]

I like how they all look young, and Alex looks about 40. He's doing a Benjiman Button, within about 20 years time he will look about 6

[PotentiallyQuiet]

omar's usng charlie's kit from his busted days. probably cos it was better than anything omar could afford

[spoonman440]

I love how the audience does nothing. If I was there I would be going fucking mental.

[hotqueekboi]

I can't believe how young they look!

[AwesomeKevin27SE]

Fightstar are Fucking Awesome {Check out the video RICHY BURNING THE DREAM}

[warwco99]

Can't help but laugh when I see them shouting, screaming and headbanging and the audience is just sitting there doing nothing.

Maybe not really the right kind of audience for this type of music XD

[Bennyboy291]

lol im loving it at the end where alex knocks the mic stand over

[ajvirdi]

theyre a racist bunch checkout their making of mercury summer kerrang exclusive video and see the pictures they laugh at towards black people

[PositiveTension505]

@ajvirdi if you're offended by that you need to take a lonk hard look in the mirror

[TheRankus]

@ajvirdi Giant black cock and a picture of a black rooster come up is not really racist

[ajvirdi]

This was the performance that opened me up to Fightstar, im usually into House music bus this was cool

[sprockz17]

his voice kinda sounds like "bush" <--- hes a singer

[r0ckergirl14]

@sprockz17 you mean Gavin Rossdale?

[sprockz17]

@r0ckergirl14 is that his name? 

[r0ckergirl14]

@sprockz17 Yup that's his name. I kinda agree, they've both got that rasp in their voice but they're still both very unique. =)

[sprockz17]

@r0ckergirl14 yeah that guy

[sleepwelltonight1]

Awesome!!!!! Although u can tell most of the crowd were just like wtf haha

[natescp]

Oma Abidi = Legend.

[smokejaguar]

i think what busted did to charlie was to give him proper vocal training cuz damn, he's got one of the most consistent voices in rock today, not to mention that unique timbre...fightstar all the way!

[RICHARDTHEBEANS]

Shit hot drummer.

[PaintYourTarget15]

It's qute gay that on every fightstar video , People who want to talk about fightstar have to see people talking about how he shouldn't have left bused and all that bull

Fightstar Are The Balls :D

[daowsley]

@PaintYourTarget15 I agree. Busted, sure, one of the better pop bands I've heard (I don't listen to them though) and pretty much they just set the stage for Charlie to really shine through Fightstar. He is an amazing frontman, with amazing band mates to back him up. But Busted, compared to these guys...man little kids just want them back and they can't accept raw, powerful Fightstar :)

[totheedge100]

wat guitar is alex using

[wewters]

the croud was dead. :(

[EscapetoSunrise]

This performance will always be remembered as a classic.

[flameboy5678]

thnkin about it charlie is the only one with experience!der still awsome tho!!

[flameboy5678]

Fightstar are awsome!

[TB0z1]

he sure must have gotten a piss take for being in busted then switching to a rock band

[IndigoRushMusic]

I saw them this week. So much more confident. Awesome band. Got some live footage too - check my channel

[Andrewheeler]

I love how much they have improved since this was filmed.

[andyboo23]

@Andrewheeler hell yeah

[bestwwefantoday]

Al sounds so funny in this one like he was sort of high just like moaning/screaming at the same time lolz but hes a mad fella :D

[XXXxXxXStarXxXxXxXXX]

I LOVE IT <33333333

[charlysays04]

shit

[GaryLeeMcKinney]

I wish Charlie would take the microphone away from Al. He really is terrible at singing.

[irial1990]

its weird to see a band like fightstar playing on tv , charlie was really confused after leaving busted.

u know what i mean , its normal if we talk about a comercial band as busted was , but its strange for a band like fightstar. people didnt understand that music i think. anyway , i love charlie , i think they are having succes now in the uk , arent they?? i dont know , im from spain.

[yoimlo]

they are having loads of success in the uk, but they are starting to go mainstream, not in their music but they are recognised more, which is a good thing as they are on the radio ocasionally but their music still rocks and is as diverse as ever!

(i am such a huge fan and am so glad that they formed!!!!)

[irial1990]

they are my fave band too!!! but i dont really know the situation around there u know!! here in spain we see them sometimes on mtv (not mtv spain , european mtv) have u ever see them performing live?? i would like to go to england and go to one of their shows!!

[DaVeTheTaliban]

i have seen them twice this year am lukey aha

[DaVeTheTaliban]

i think there old stuff is a lot lot better like this paint your target i did not think be human was too great be it still rocks goo fightstar best band :)

[MrHotKyra]

Charlie led a double life with busted, for the last year they were together he would sneak of and jam with some of the other members of Fightstar. He never really liked the pop scene as he always listened to rock

[irial1990]

yeah i know . in "america or busted" , when they were playing in the beach , charlie started to play "lost like tears in the rain" and he always said that his favaourites bands are deftones and jimmy eat world. busted was a good POP BAND , but fightstar is an AMAZING ROCK BAND.

[brighteratnight]

@irial1990 ahhh i wish i could see that, him playing lost like tears whilst with his busted bandmembers hahah...wonder what they thought.

[thatsnotmyage]

the only good bit is the little screamo bit he does at the end

[goonerboy912]

They had to cut out the really heavy bits to make it 'listener friendly'..fucking bullshit if you ask me

[crisis123456789]

whoa must be old, they sound dodgey as fuck, charlie has got shit hot live since then.

[watford1881]

Just before Charlie's shouting fit (epic by the way!), what is Al singing? I can't work it out from here or the single

[TheSnuffBox]

@watford1881 Stop panicking, if not point out the time :P

[watford1881]

@TheSnuffBox lol, how can you hear that!? still sounds nothing like that to me! cheers

[TheSnuffBox]

@watford1881 Listen to the album version :P

[watford1881]

@TheSnuffBox I've got the album, version. I mean literally just before Charlie screams, it isn't even clear if he is singing or just going "oooh". I think you're confused as to where I mean (probs as I wasn't very clear! lol. Literally 2:17-2:23

[TheEnglishWay1]

Wow this video is sooooo olddd, there AWESOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOME LIVE !!!

[CreweBlitz]

Ahhhh i can't wait till i see them live on the 23rd October should be an amazing night

[XXweedboyXX]

[rocksystem132]

drums sound so shit lol

[DaVeTheTaliban]

Fuck yo they sound fucking awesome you down :)

[rocksystem132]

i'm on about the drum kit isn't worthy of omar lol.

[fps74]

i believed that fightstar's lives could be better, he didn't sing the last line, cause he can't

[MrYiseverynametaken]

I saw them just last sunday at the abc is glasgow, and he sang this ong perfect, every line. so, stfu idiot

[TheMushroooom]

WOOHOO, Im seeing them on October 27th ^^ my amazing boyfriend baught me tickets!!!!!

Fightstar are frickin amazing!!

[mynameisdonaltube]

Happy Days, where they playing on that date? I'm seeing them the week after you :D

They are amazing

[rocksystem132]

i bought tickets to see them 2nd of november and my girlfriend didn't jump for joy. :(

[AverageJoe117]

I'm going to their first gig of the tour xD At Cambridge Junction.

[ZoZotheplayfulpup]

damn i wish i could see them live, shame i'm like the only one of my friends to see past the whole "busted" thing ¬_¬

[busky18]

I remember this. I remember the day their EP was released and I bought it at my local Woolworths. Seems ages ago now...

[spoonman440]

This has to be one of favorite fightstar songs!

They actually rule.

[air3366]

should b seein em 2day cant wait

[newbster7]

why aint this on any of there cds??

[nicandjedge]

it is, its on there first ep, 'They liked you better when you were dead'. :)

[Layonard]

yes it's.. in fact is in 2 CDs... Grand Unification and the EP They like you better when you were dead

[spoonman440]

it is, its on there EP 'They liked you better when you were dead'

[SmellsLikeLithium]

ok ive gotta see them live

[fish4brains]

I love that scream. I reckon that's what made Charlie realise he needed to leave Busted, they wouldn't let him scream so much then. (would love to hear some screamo versions of Busted songs for the lulz though)

[pipzisalegend]

omar is the fuckin maaaan!! so is charlie!!! gosh this is cool

[DaVeTheTaliban]

to rite man :)

[afroduck1]

fightstar r my favourite band, but this is bad. they actually admitted that themselves in a recent interview. they've improved so much. but also the shit sound quality of the instruments makes it even worse. dunno if that was down to them or the tv programme tho

[DaVeTheTaliban]

i love you dan

[TommyNay]

u can hear charlie breathe in realy loud

[hannahgc7]

that crowd did NOT look amused hahaa. i WAS however X)

[rocksystem132]

i don't think that was the right crowd lol

[AbigDayDreamer]

I <333 Charlie

[Vhaldemar90]

from pop to metal, CHARLIE rules

[Disasterpieces963]

i saw them at Rock am RIng this year, nice performance

[thesecretsinger94]

omars kit in this video is rank his new 1 is yummy :D :D

[chrisPRSguitars]

it was charlies old kit.. actualy sold it on ebay about 2 years ago

[DaVeTheTaliban]

i think this still sounds amazing theo man

[soilderofthemcrmy]

fuck should of known you would of commented but sup lewis this is good this one

[Muhammadan]

I remember watching this, thought it was shit. Then saw the actual video the next day and loved it. I'm guessing it was just nerves and an off performance.

[readyornotuk]

Take into account they're playing to a crowd that is sat down and probably don't appreciate their music as much as fans do, they have to be so nervous!

[XBlackHeartedBandX]

the backup singer is fucking shit on every vid iv heard him

[XBlackHeartedBandX]

this is quite crap but i know they can do better

[fuckyounakedbluejean]

A nervy performance. This is possibly the first TV showing they did. Vocals are a bit wobbly, drumming a bit stiff - but its great to see. Because it makes you appreciate how fucking tight they are as a band now, how much charlie has grown into his 'metal' voice and how much of a fantastic live band they are these days.

[MancunianSCFC]

i would have to disagree. how else would you expect it to sound. in my opinion, there playing great in and around that shabby set. and not one of there first tv performances.

[fuckyounakedbluejean]

oh, don't be so petulent little girl. They are a much better live band today than they ever were five years ago and if you can't see that, then you've never been out to a recent gig and seen them perform this song live. It's a heavier, stronger sound, the vocals are confident and bold and overall its much more epic than it was here.

P.S - I said 'possibly' the first TV appearance. If you can name me an earlier live TV performance, and prove it, then please do. Otherwise stfu.

[MancunianSCFC]

calm down dude. lol

[fuckyounakedbluejean]

...Proving what an uneducated, gloryfan you are, dickhead. You clearly know fuck all about fightstar or their music. I won't waste my time any further.

[St3w91]

Ya Right Beta Now Then They Were 5 Year Ago :)

I Shud No Ive Bin 2 All There Gigs =D

[fuckyounakedbluejean]

Yes, finally someone who actually goes to the gigs and knows the score. Thank you...

Surely you havent been to all the gigs though? theyve done hundreds? LOL. J/K.

[MancunianSCFC]

bloody hell mate did i touch a nerve? calm down u sicko lol

[beckhamcapone]

@St3w91 this was there first tv perfomance.i see them twice in pompey and there just epic..cant wait till the 3rd time =)

[wwesley44]

@fuckyounakedbluejean  its still a bad ass performance

[blazenchat]

I think his hammered OO

His singing some of the wrong lyrics

In the beginning he said "I'm outside your house" when he was surpose to says "Im not in your house"

[HolyLoowis]

He always sings that live, trust meh. He rarely says I'm not in your house. But he may be hammered.

[blazenchat]

^///^ lol oh..okay *needs to go to a fightstar live*

[mozzadagozza]

lol the audience look so un-phased by them

[Tomozaurus]

Ha. They're so young here.

[Dan0692]

lmao 2:53 Al smacks the mic out the way with his mellow yellow guitar

[thingy2812]

i like the spazz out that charlie does at 2.23

[zoorules1]

LOL ye fattatafattata!!!

[spike189]

early days on live tv was baddd, thank god they sorted themselves out lol

[elboydo06]

[sparks18190]

[murraymint55]
