Stairways have excellent acoustic, the sound is'nt trapped it travels quite aways, sounds excellent. The vocals are really amazing, no auto-tune here!
Great song! Love how you do it in the stairwell. Just in case there is any doubt to the skills. Check out my version. I think its the second best on here.
now this is REAL music, REAL ppl who have taken the time and effort to learn to play REAL instruments and who sing with REAL passion and emotion ,i love this song so much , it just goes to show how much computer generated crap that is fed to us and called music by manufactured pop tarts
I love this song because it's faithfully music...no effects, no tricks, no editing...They make music in a corridor without mikrophones and execution. However it sounds really good!
This is such a killer version. I have to tell you that watching Isaac's emotion build and build and then when he pulls off his beenie and closes his eyes......wow. ENCORE
okay the 21 people who disliked this song, either need to see a psychiatrist, go to a mental institution, or are deaf because the vocals of this song is phoenominal, the sound quality isnt the best but thats because they are in a stair well and it echos so whoever disliked this song, seriously your deaf, or mental.
dude your voice is awesome, they back ups need to shut up and stick to music they kill the song by singing too, it sounds great until they come in, but you have a natural good voice and in order to sing that well in the environment your in with the echo in the room it still sounds awesome you are very talented Issac
ok i like this and all but the back up singers are just killin it for me. just stick to your instruments and don't sing ha ha other than that the fray is the best
Im sorry, but i just starting listening to the fray and i have to say its really good for singing in a stairwell..Wow...theres so much and heart and soul in the music thy sing, Bravo!
i love it how they can perform anywhere and still sound as good as good as the album...put a modern pop singer in that situation..and they would sound terrible
i love the real music video, but i love this one even more. it epitomizes the raw power of the song. i mean, this song was meant to be sung in an emergency stairwell, on a park bench, in the real world! i'd be really impressed if they performed it in a park at night, or on a street corner, or on a bridge or something. who besides me thinks that's what the song is really about? i mean, God doesn't normally find people in recording studios. other bands should adopt this practice.
i heard you found me first on a local radio station, and im so impressed about the way they play there song. there so much in it that gives me gooseflesh, everytime i hear there music, now i have a copy of there album, i always listen to them after work... two thumbs up...
god I love the beginning of this song. the imagery of being at a crossroads having a convo w/ god while he smokes his last cig is deep.
