System Of A Down - B.Y.O.B (MTV EMA Music Awards 2005)

[funnylaugher345]

to all those people out there saying system of a down sucks live..do us all a favor and shut the hell up. scroll to the top and read my comment from before and you will understand why they suck live. if you notice they only suck when playing for mtv (hint hint) so please..do your research or at least look up one other video before criticizing people. i bet you bitches cant even play as good as them in this video even when you try has hard as you can. ..l..

[Drumkitupyourass]

@MMDGameplay youtube.com/watch?v=w00v2zVkX9­g, maybe you will change your mind

[MajorAALAN]

@MMDGameplay no, your wrong. did you not read the top comment??? they did this shitty performance on purpose idiot

[thedarkshitstain]

SUCK MY DICKKKKKK

[Drakggor]

The guitarist fucked up. I guess it does happen to the best.

[sonicbumblebeee]

Why does youtube list the artist as Derpwtfthatis??

[majosoadicta]

@Sebastianschra

Are you deaf ? Because this band is great ! But in this "concert" they play really bad because they hate to play for MTV ! But it continues being unjust for the fans they don't deserve it .

[ljmisha]

SOAD kicks ass, despite people's hateful comments

[Sebastianschra]

I hate everything about this band. I mean, look at that guy at the guitar. He cant hit a single note and plays like shit. He just looks and acts like a little gnome and cant evensing at all. And what in the holy.name of fuckness is wrong eith the tone of the guitar. That sounds like the 20 dollar starterkit bought by the discounter.

Awfull....

[tehpeasant]

@Sebastianschra This performance is shit. I'm a huge fan, but I don't know how this video can has so many thumbs up :P

[gamefreak4400]

@Sebastianschra I'm not going to argue with your opinion, but from what i hear, they play bad on purpose when on Mtv because they hate them. If you don't believe it, look up some of their other live stuff.

[funnylaugher345]

p.s. thats why daron yelled out "SUCK MY DICK" at the end

[funnylaugher345]

mtv made a contract with soad saying they had to play on mtv whenever they wanted. they said to soads face they would never make them cancel a concert. they made soad cancel a concert that day to go play that one song on mtv. soad was pissed off so they purposely fucked up everything. daron's guitar was out of tun and he lagged on notes, serj sang flat, and drum notes were missed.

[ZPDUDE87]

i cant tell if the guitar is supposed to sound that shitty or not

[Legion640]

Looks like somebody accidently dropped their guitar and fucked it up backstage. Luckily Daron is too badass to give a shit.

[2601felipe]

ainda bem que foi melhor no Rock in Rio

[SOADVSSOAD]

They did this on purpose because MTV is a corporate whore.

[xik0x100pre]

SYSTEM OF A DOWN♥ 

[karrodeadd]

im tellin ya,listen to this intro and then listen to the intro for Rattelhead by MegadetH and its scary close \m/

[protossdamned]

WHOA WHOA WHOA>>>>> DARON,SERJ...... WTF DUDE?



[chilimayhem]

lol if i were them i'd fire their roadie, that guitar sounds horrible and the mics are too high.

[9874ZeRo]

Antes Mtv era Chevere Jaaa

[jasmineNphilip]

THE LEAD SINGER LOOKS LIKE KENNY G......badass

[masterbeef92]

@jasmineNphilip kenny G looks like serj*

[shadowyicon]

ah, the good old days while MTV was still playing good music.

[TheMystagicalOne]

haha Daron must have been so high! hes screwing up heaps =/

[wpreciado94]

its just me or the guitar is SOO out of tune? xD

[Ozziguy6]

@wpreciado94 supposedly they played shit on purpose because they hate MTV and they were probably forced into it.

[newborn54]

@Ozziguy6 As well as Daron being higher than a motherfucker

[TheMouSkara]

@wpreciado94 they seem to be out of tune in most of their live performances... too bad :(

[Ivan11040]

@TheMouSkara Thats probably the drugs....good song wrighting thou! 

[1999myers]

@wpreciado94 It's not you. We all in the EMA's Heard it!

[GaidonxP]

@wpreciado94 they hate mtv XD

[liveandletrock864]

@wpreciado94 no he is just playing realy shitty

[eric2000ob]

@wpreciado94 its notonly you!!!i can`t understand why it`s so bad!!!

[Guitaristscreamer]

@wpreciado94 @funnylaugher345 to answer both questions, yes theyre out of tune and yell fuck because system hates MTV so they play their most popular song horribly on purpose

[Guitaristscreamer]

@Guitaristscreamer its also why the singer is barely singing most of the song

[jessedddd]

@wpreciado94 i think everything was out of tune in this live performance :$

[Hell7Vegeta8]

@wpreciado94 @Sebastianschra

How do I say this? Clean your ears dudes. I play guitar myself and I personally can say that his guitar is perfectly tuned but in the beginning of the song he purposely fucked up. And obviously since you don't play guitar you don't know when a guitar is tuned and when are you just missing notes. =D

[Sweetluckk]

@wpreciado94 its actually in tune! but im not sure if hes playing shitty on purpose or .. who knows.

[kfourtakas]

too many mistakes



[composertimbeek]

@kfourtakas it's about the energy :)

[MasterJ81]

@kfourtakas Daron was high as hell!!



[leeksawsa]

@kfourtakas mistakes? thats just they way daron used to play that song.. listen all the live of byob and ull see it :)

[kfourtakas]

@leeksawsa @TheSnazzyX3 obviously he was always high, so he could not play at all. And if you play crappy you lose not the MTV. If they hated they shouldnt play at all

[TheSnazzyX3]

@kfourtakas SOAD Hates MTV, so they fucked up on purpose to fuck with them.

[metalhead222x3]

@TheSnazzyX3 If they wanted to piss mtv off and still give their fans there a good show they made it good

[TheLongboardlife]

when MTV awards was all about good music..... now it all about shity music...

[dannc1123]

3:58 says it all. MTV sucks dick haha

[wasisdenndesmann]

In grauer, grauer Vorzeit anno 2005, als System of A Down auf MTV kam.

[inthefiveonenine]

It's sad. I really like this band but the whole "we aren't corporate shills" act is tired and boring. Corporate is what launched you faggots. Go back to playing bars and making 10K a year if you don't like "the game". I mean the pretentiousness of these bands to pull stunts like this just make them look like douche nozzles. Grow the fuck up. Nirvana pulled shit like this before and it was douchey then and it's douchey now. Don't agree to play if you aren't going to. No one thinks it's cool.

[yarduatssss]

@inthefiveonenine 1,289 likes, 47 dislikes. You were saying?

[inthefiveonenine]

@yarduatssss seriously, you are using the view "likes/dislikes" as your rebuttal. you are either under 20 years old or just don't know how it works. you know most to all of those are fan boys and fans that click "like" just because it's SOAD right? without even a listen or worse a fan boy ear, they click like. i'm not hating on you man, maybe you just didn't know, maybe you are just a kid. but that's how it works. hopefully your generation will change the sheople mentality.

[yarduatssss]

@inthefiveonenine 832 comments, let's say half is about soad fu to mtv. And the other half saying soad sucks or the were bad. Now, let's say half of those people thumbed up the video. Not including the viewers who didn't comment. That's still around 200 thumbs compared to 47. Now, most people commenting are saying that it's them saying fuck you to mtv. With that being said you can't assume all of those guys are fanboys. I'm a fan, but not a fanboy.

[yarduatssss]

@inthefiveonenine But why argue? If the majority is happy, let them be. No need to bash a band that protests, helped a cancer patient, does fund raisers, marching's and apparently actually gives a damn.

[yarduatssss]

@inthefiveonenine To me, they are awesome because they aren't just doing messages through songs about political problems, their writing (writing their own music might I add) and performing it (without lip sync) and then backing it up with protesting and fighting for what they believe in. I'd rather have my kid a soad fan than a beiber fan at least.

[LaoDiceanable]

@inthefiveonenine

Go fuck off, they made it where they are now for that same reason you dislike them. so go listen to bieber or whatever you kids listen to these days

[AndrEColorad0]

they played kind of wrong, because they dont fucking care about mtv

[Guiherethemage]

MTV 2005: System of a Down

[VagosTrabajando]

Creo que estaban hasta la madre de borrachos o no se :S

[Ziszu]

@VagosTrabajando en realidad es porque odian mtv, si estuvieran borrachos lo habrian hecho mucho mejor y con mas energia.

[yourguardian20]

Guitarists: clean up your shit

[FightToWin21]

Damn, really does take balls to take a dive like that... Why did they agree to perform for MTV if they weren't going to perform well?

[Seattle01ful]

SOAD È FODA DE MAIS

[grandmasterbulid1]

0:00 "its System of a Down!" and they "yeeaaaa" THATS NOT CHEER FOR SOAD!

[luciik233]

omg i m missing serj's awesome hair :D

[sub54u]

that sounded shit....they sound better then that

[teebban]

@sub54u wtf¿¿?? man , for me it doesnt matter , the great thing is the energy that they put on stage , THEY ARE GOING CRAZY UP IN THAT STAGE!, do you think that is easy to be jumping , running , screaming or spining and playing perfectly??, they really go crazy when they play , they are real and they really feel his own music , personally i really like this performance, is pure energy.... and i feel it maybe you should learn to feel that.

[sub54u]

@teebban being an touring sound technician for over 10 years and working with system of a down before i know perfectly well what they sound like and this clip, the music sounds shit. the performance is great. the crowd is going nuts. i understand what your saying but if you listen to it you can't hear that much bass and all and the lead singer can barely be heard when the 2 of them are singing together. i love soad and am not having a go at the band or the fans.

[mratvrider96]

what? why does this have so many likes? i mean i like this song and this band but this was horrible

[Doodthedood]

@mratvrider96 They hate MTV

[ViKyTa19]

[volcom9570]

[kroyclub]

[ca5k]

They just took a big shit on MTV's stage, a shit they titled "FUCK YOU MAINSTREAM WAR-MONGERING PRICKS"

lol

[GaidonxP]

they did some on purpose... but they still player well lol

[RedSkyMayCry5]

Darron is a poison for debile's!! Thats the reason why fucked up politicans don't like him. Middle finger's in air for the new world order!!

[MonseFlor89]

obviously they played bad on purpose! and who don't get it.. suck my dick!!

[MonseFlor89]

ta na cara que eles tocaram assim de proposito!! nunca o Serj cantou assim.. quem não entende isso que se foda porra!

[Asscobra83]

[jnuggets8297]

[domints]

What The F**k Is That?! This version sucks a lot! The worst song I've ever heard (only Justin Bieber sucks more :D ) SOAD is awesome, but this... No comment...

[argusmaiden]

@domints they played bad on purpose, and by the way THAT is a fucking comment

[janirocks88]

I hate this sorry excuse for a band and I wish they all die except for the fact that their ART is fucking ungodly determinable and id kill myself for them anytime

[RenggaMorientes]

they're casual, but ROOOCKKKK!!!

[Sydidicaa]

S.O.A.D., Face it, even when you try to sound bad, it fails and still sounds amazing. Sorry

[MrJerry0202]

SOAD for ever, the bether...



[Kdubvid7894]

some of serj curles are invisible in the light :DDDDD

[TheSilentHillFan666]

a lot of ppl say this live version sucks because soad realy hate mtv so thats why they played bad but still its epic ( sry for bad English

[alxjolly22]

@TheSilentHillFan666 lol they must hate mtv, cause this is a half ass performance, still awsome tho, SOAD for life

[poopdroop69]

@TheSilentHillFan666 Really? what pompous dicks. They could have just not shown up

[xInstaGravy]

@TheSilentHillFan666 Even if they try to play bad... THEY STILL ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CynicalCannibal]

CRAZY MUTHAFUCKAS.

[Dneekap]

I love SOAD but its like Serj isn't even trying here....

[gabrielkadaj]

Soad como sempre gênial

[0N33A5YWA1K7HR0UGH]

lol at Darron SUCK MY DICK!!!

[jackkoslov]

/\FOUNKE... positive for us!

[jtturkel]

2:53 is that a mosh pit at a MTV show ?!?!

I fucking love portugal man, mosh all the way!

[KingOfChaoslol]

This might be the best MTV-insult ever xD

[boganpride100]

why do they hate mtv tho??

[jnuggets8297]

they didnt play bad because they hate mtv they played bad because this is a difficult song to play every band plays badly at one point you guys dont have to react to trolls by saying they hate mtv and thats why they wouldnt have played for mtv if they hated them

[MetaIIifan]

@jnuggets8297 So you mean "And this ain't no bullshit political punk rock!" and "Suck my dick!" doesn't any meaning towards MTV?

[jnuggets8297]

@MetaIIifan bands dont play for mtv they play for the fans why would they play badly for fans of theirs thats stupid and they are also getting payed to do that im sure they dislike mtv but thats not how a band gets the message out they get the message out with the lyrics of songs and in interviews

[MetaIIifan]

@jnuggets8297 That may be so, but through most of their songs you notice they dislike a lot about the US and it's politics (and generally the world). So if they dislike MTV, why not express that too through their music?

[scooterwiz1]

@MetrOPolitan why would they write a song specifically for MTV that would be stupid

[jnuggets8297]

@MetaIIifan im quite aware that they express their beleifs through music but do you think they would really put on a bad show for those fans they love their fans they wouldnt do something like that they would make a song about it or put out an emotional statement

[stabdabunni]

@jnuggets8297 im gonna have to go with nuggets on this one. This performance doesn't even sound "On purpose bad". You would be able to tell very clearly if it was on purpose bad. I love SOAD but even really good bands can have a bad performance.

[TenohikaBanzai]

System of a Down played badly on this one because they hate MTV, but on the other hand they are the best band in the world!

[ButterItWithButter]

soad is to good for mtv awards....

[joaofpocas]

@ButterItWithButter indeed

[PakozzoPioPio]

That's EPIC 3:58

[Tommeh88]

"S*CK MY D*CK" at mtc ema.. priceless!

[McLOVIN571]

I know they aren't really that bad but why are the sounding like shit on purpose?

[ShadowBlade448]

Just because you retards don't seem to realize, they're playing bad on purpose.

[PItiFuL0o]

I laughed so hard when Serj sang that part without even trying :)

[kakarrot330]

Man those were the days when REAL music conquer

[IGattsI]

well the people analyzing this performance need to head check and realize they fucked up cause they wanted to XD

[omarlopez902]

man S.O.A.D still sounds amazing even when they try to play like shit

[triofact34]

Is it just me or does Serj sound a bit autotuned? Fucking MTV...

[lazrpo]

@triofact34 Not at all. He's so off key at parts that it's almost funny to suggest that he's autotuned.

[lokoiu223]

the fuck did daron say at 2:17?

[judioinutil]

@lokoiu223 "And this is not bullshit political pop-rock"... fucking epic dude.

[lenoch007able]

es muchisimo mejor que wisin y yandel y ademas si cantan en vivo no como esos gays

[MangaNeoLeo]

I love how they did this purposely. :3

[KCgrunge]

suck my dick was epic

[Sydidica]

Serj's hair looks like it could catch on fire with those huge lights.

[xPURPLE4PANDAx]

3:57

SUCK MY DICK!

[MrJeffer2702]

jajjajaja so me dig jajaj XD 3:58

[lokoiu223]

Daron: SUX MAH DIK!!!

Cant describe the epicness of the moment :)

[Gotenks196]

OMG, DARON WEARING A TEE-SHIRT !

[TheMicromantic]

They just fucked up the show, that was they way to say "Fuck you MTV", its all on purpose. :)

[SlipknotDisturbedAFI]

i love SOAD, but daron has an awful tune on his guitar, his most recent show is way better! its SOAD 2011 /watch?v=LjQM1Bp24Xo

[rockrenegade]

@SlipknotDisturbedAFI

He's deliberately playing sloppy as hell because he just doesn't give a fuck because it's shitty MTV

[gtamp4]

viro reege essa porra agr?

q porra

[alcosboys]

wtf is wrong with the voice of serj ????

he is the best singer but this is bljak...:(

[hathorrox]

This song hurts my ears whether its in tune, out of tune, played perfectly, played with mistakes...
