Hot Water Music - It's hard to know (Bizarre Festival - 9)

[ap311403]

Can't wait for their new album. HWM's BAAAAAAACCCCCKKKKKKK - so fucking awesome!!!!

[dedricthere]

Chris kinda sounds like Bobcat Goldthwait from 1:22 to 1:31

[Tati85794]

I used to love this band almost more than myself! Great times! But it`s still alive!!!

[Tati85794]

Oh, my teens!!!

[CTLDST7017]

TO RUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!

[johnnystitchface]

The lyrics to this song are awesome. And their passion gives me goosebumps.

[nighteyes111]

I almost passed out singing this song at the top of my lungs when I saw them live it was fucking amazing

[TheAukerman]

now that's what i call clean drummin'

[pinetone000]

the bassist is finger pickin' good.

[adamantic]

song helped me thru some shit. more than one or twice.

'its hard to find your way thru the darkness, its hard to know what to believe. but if you live by your heart, and value the love that you find, you'll have all you need, to run not follow, lead a life the best you know.'

[matthew327]

AMAZING...

[josenet2006]

I like this but... how could anybody call it "punk"????

[dedricthere]

Their guitar tone almost sounds like Husker Du here...Very nice.

[ericdrum74]

@dedricthere When I first heard this version, I thought the exact same thing!

[girlinhotwater]

When they played this live I think my heart stopped. I wish they would come back on tour.  they are amazing live.

[bgmreini]

thats what i call punk. put all your emotions in the one thing you love to do, and thats what they are doing.

[EmaJack99]

Respect, you wear a Clash t shirt

[alllllllll00]

What a band!

[ben1111]

This is HWM at their best.

[danimal245]

HWM works better than Prozac!! LOVE IT!!!

[TheSonsofHorusx]

i bet the singer smokes sooo much weed to get his voice that raspy lol

[danimal245]

@TheSonsofHorusx Hot Water don't smoke weed, unfortunately...

[alex0202123]

@danimal245

Wollard does.

[kevinstarlo]

your sing is good but you have yell every word when you sing

[duckboystump]

this gives me chills. actually better than the studio recording

[dedricthere]

Probably my favorite song of theirs.

[TheThepillows]

Both fantastic singers!

[brickwindow26]

they both seriously have absolutely captivating voices!

[thelivingfire]

rock on HWM!

[TheSteve4200]

FUKIN SUCH AN AWSOME SONG.

[JUMBOpin]

fuck how good is chucks voice!! the absolute best voice in punk...everrr

[Hardlbgd]

ouh... my comment is meant for xalecempirex.

[spickyspan]

got to see them 10 years ago, so awesome!!

[difersame79]

has the same voice as singer of the Mighty Mighty Bosstones :)

[wickedwarren]

its very similar!

[TheSteve4200]

Not really

[dankman104]

live your heart and never follow!

[david253253]

i thought this song was about believing in your self and living life true to yourself not religion

[lufis]

this is one of the greatest songs ever written, the lyrics, the intent, the groove, it gives me chills, powerfull performance as well...all passion

[rondotexe]

You gotta love Ragan's raspy voice. I don't know. For me, there's just something awesome about it that I love. Cool people. :D

[matttildesley]

not being rude but what are you talking abought jesus and fuckin moses,anything to do with it's hard to know hot water music,fuck i've forgotten alblum name

[rudymartin2]

xalecempirex, shut up its 2009, granted i believe in god, and jesus and that jazz, just cause you go to church and prolly have your weird friends doesnt mean you can go preaching to kids and young adults about life meanings what do you hope to accomplish cause all i see is another youtube flamer-jesusfreak commiting a major buzz kill

[ShimmySystem]

Who sings "live your heart and never follow" in the studio version?

[leveelevee]

LIVE YOUR HEART AND NEVER FOLLOW!

[dziurka1989]

fuck god you fucking pricks!!!fucking christian shit!!!this band is great...but you dont

[envelopevil]

GOD runs NO Idea.... of course he'll put out.

one of the best hwm tunes,

chucky rules

[daufamily]

God gave us His commands cause He loves us, and doesn't want us to be destroyed by a life that's motto is "live your heart"

[skech12]

this is the dumbest statement i have ever heard. you need to stop letting yourself be controlled and just live the one life you have. you people in this huge religious cult follow so blindly its amazing. religion is created in the minds of human beings which suggests that god is created in the minds of human beings, and god itself does not exist. quit wasting your life. LIVE YOUR LIFE AND NEVER FOLLOW.

[daufamily]

Your comment is not worth intelligently responding to if you dont believe in God than my friend its only a matter of time before you will.

[skech12]

its not worth intelligently responding to? you cant think of a response. you go on living your life by a book that wasn't even meant to be taken literally but im going to live my life how i want to and not be under command. the bible was meant to be a simple life lesson just like a childrens book that teaches them to share.

[xalecempirex]

A belief in God and blindly following a figure head inside of a church are completely different things. Please go back to your self righteous amoral child molesting money embezzling church and stay the fuck out of our hardcore scene, your closed mindedness and negativity have no place. Amazing that the bible says Jesus Christ says come as you are, yet some of you are the first to cast stones...

[Hardlbgd]

dude.

just listen to the music, think about it, listen again to it. then listen to another song from hwm and then think about what you wrote....

[Ascarebot]

Dude, God has a HWM tattoo!  He/she is a fan!!

[Jaeger217]

i think you are the only one making sense in this whole exchange.

[kenhomhotwok]

You can go on your personal crusade to post this comment on every video of 'It's Hard To Know', but I don't think you'll have much success with your statement.

This song doesn't even need to be discussed in a religious context. If you attributed it to different perspectives, I think you could learn from it.

As a Christian, you should respect that view, LIVE YOUR HEART and stop preaching.

[xalecempirex]

God gave us free will. I think some so called christian's could learn a thing or two about morals, integrity and honor from alot of the kids in hardcore / indie scenes around the world.

On that note Moses went onto a mountain and got those commandments no one else saw it just Moses... I don't believe a word of it until God tells me himself, until then I will be doing my best to help people out while you sit around and pray and get nothing accomplished.

[ShimmySystem]

Why are you preaching on here. Even god would think you're a moron for this.

[xalecempirex]

What exactly was a preaching there hero? That actually having morals and integrity trumps being a part of a church and pretending to have morals just cause it was read in a book? I don't really care what some fictional fairy tale overseer thinks of me.

[oldthompson24]

I know its been said so many times but I really wish they would go back to putting out HWM records

[mresplendent]

I second that thought. A new record would make my year! I really liked The New What Next even if it is so different from the No Division era releases that I love.

[mresplendent]

A classic from No Division. I never thought about the fact that both Chuck and Chris sing a verse on this.

"Live your heart and never follow."

"I take on everything standing up, standing tall."

The classic HWM lyrics. Love these guys.

[causeofmyanger]

nice shirt chuck.

the clash woohoo

[Rawlpu]

fucking awesome. I love this band. seeing them live was amazing.

[noisecape]

they are insanely good. I very rarely say that about anyone.

[noisecape]

WOW

all I can say.

this song is amazing

[SteveSkatesCrummy]

best song by far!

[kenhomhotwok]

everyone who likes music should see some merit in this song. it's superb.

[matze214]

really , there is no other band witch is better then HWM! the drummer has the same tattoo like my friend lol

[noisecape]

there are better bands, but HWM are one of the best for sure.

[salamatpoo]

The only band I could think of that's definitely better is Leatherface. If you ask Hot Water Music they'd say the same exact thing!

[noisecape]

haha.

there are a few bands who are up there with HWM, I just don't tend to pick favourites, since some bands suit my mood at one time or another, sometimes I prefer Jawbreaker, sometimes I prefer A Wilhelm Scream, but god fucking damnit I love Hot water music hahaha I'm not disagreeing or agreeing with you ;)

[xbadastronautx]

best band ever LEGENDARY

[Nibbbling]

Best song ever.

[fugaziusm]

Superb.
