Brand New - You Wont Know

[afreijat]

i feel so insignificant and so real at the same time

[daniel93daniel]

don't know how much times i've seen this vid.. best in youtube **

[sarahxho]

this video is epic

[CodysFavorites]

this is my favorite performance of them. jesse's vocals at the end give me goosebumps everytime

[sweetsolitude99]

I agree with @symbiot90.

Love this! It's no secret that this song in particular is especially intense live, even for them. Love the ending. He's screaming the lyrics at the top of his lungs, but he still sounds awesome. Then, he just drops the microphone and walks away. Amazing. <3

[psychonekroman]

What about Brian setzer?

[filthyveganpunk]

to me there are only two guys worthy of being called "musical geniuses" One of which obviously being Jesse Lacey and the other being Brian Fallon.

[landan101]

@filthyveganpunk I dont think Ive ever agreed so much with a comment on youtube

[ItzChloe1]

these lyrics are so... i can't even explain it. so lets just leave it at that.

Jesse Lacey's lyrics are so

[symbiot90]

This song must be so personal to him. and if it is, it's great that he shares it with his fans. Brand New's the best in what they do.

[LittleMissMoose]

wow

[superipoddude]

His voice must get so tired after a show. He must use his voice to its extent whenever they play. He's such an emotional singer. Jesse Lacey is one of my favorite songwriters of all time.

[NeroOmega]

The ending to this video. The way he keeps shouting the "You won't know, you won't know" over and over beyond the ending on the album. The way the band fades into darkness leaving Jesse looking alone and forlorn.. Really REALLY fits the mood of this song. I had an eargasm. I love Brand New.

[novawildcat89]

incredible video

[toolfanify]

the spit at the end is bad ass

[monstamf]

I MISS THIS

[hospitaldancing]

3 deaf/blind folk accidently clicked this link, apparently.

[pointplaya6]

sickness



[musicismyfavorite777]

when he just stares in the same place and says you won't know over and over again it's so haunting... this song definitely means a lot to him

[seear223]

This performance is beyond unbelievable.

[domfcpremix]

4:00 he just breaks the mic haha

[hoovs425]

brings tears to my eyes. jesse lacey is a blessing to us all.

[JamieBro123]

There is no better man out there than Jesse Lacey... Someday he will be compared to the likes of Kurt Cobain, Eddie Vedder, and Bob Dylan.

[tygolf11]

@JamieBro123 no no no. he is much better than anyone of those guys listed

[JamieBro123]

@tygolf11 Oh cripes... Kurt Cobain's taking it a little far... I'd say he is up there with Kurt, but no better.... That's just... My opinion, man.

[tygolf11]

@JamieBro123 hahaha i was just messing around. i would listen to brand new over any of those guys but thats just because thats my taste in music. ive never even listen to eddie vedder

[JamieBro123]

@tygolf11 Really? He's the lead singer of Pearl Jam...

[tygolf11]

@tygolf11 ohhh ok now its ringin bells

[lilbabyworden]

@JamieBro123 Kurt Cobain was a pussy.

Fuck him, he's lucky I never got the chance to fucking kill him and that he did it before I could.

[slomo8888]

@JamieBro123 that would probably happen, if he shot himself...But I really hope he stays alive and makes more songs.

[bostonManifesto]

what does he scream around 0:51? its where he usually 2,3,4 1,2,3,4 then goes crazy. anyone know what he screams here instead?

[JALSPS]

@bostonManifesto So pray, little Kay, love's God on a good day

And you can't blame your mother,

She's trying not to say I was the worst mistake

And I wish that I could tell you right now (...I love you)

But it looks like I won't be around

So you won't know...

[devoured1]

3:34 on.... e p i c

[SeveredFilms]

Jesse's lookin a bit like Kurt there

[tberge89]

fucking god.

[jkarate212]

Fucking. AMAZING.

[shellbelle5]

when jesse goes high pitched at the end...oooooohhhhhhhhh myyyy goshhhhhhhhlksjfkagjakjfgakj. <3

[shellbyllynne]

5:20-5:30

...

absolutely, breathtakingly beautiful.

it's so sad.

and so pretty.

this whole song, live..

it's raw emotion.

it's pain, and rage.

it's beautiful.

[mothertheresa]

I had a friend who was there and she didn't even bother to watch Brand New! I couldn't believe her when she told me. And after watching this I still can't believe it.

[Lemonpepperchicken]

Seriously this is the best video on youtube right now

[jeandywarhol]

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!

[vanillascy]

bad ass way to end it haha

[ryanw52088]

Fucking gods!

[pwndbymcr]

this is the best video on youtube.

[agshdyejfuksf]

apparently you haven't seen death metal rooster.

but this is definitely a close runner up.

haha

[killasplooge]

fuck thats pretty

[ilike999999999]

all that emotion he has locked up inside is just flooding from him in this tune, iits badass.

[RainbowsOnLegs]

This is probably the most intense performance I've found of BN playing You Won't Know. The song means a lot to me and seeing Jesse break down on stage kind of eats at me a little bit, but it's still comforting to see; if that makes any sense. Fucking perfect though.

[North0house]

There's not a better example of perfect music out there.

[marlu220688]

@North0house so true :)

[symbiot90]

@North0house Beethoven man. haha Jesse's awsome though

[North0house]

@symbiot90 Haha, well, classical music is in its own realm of perfection, nothing can touch it. So, that doesn't count lol.

[TomWhaley621]

@North0house Meh. The Beatles were ok.

[saintoflostcauses22]

incredible performance. ive never seen them live but i'm dying to

[hokiedevil04]

This song is about his daughter that will never know him because the mom beefs with Jesse. "I wish that I could tell you right now, 'I love you'."

[steve0619]

right storey, im not sure it is necesarilly about jesse himself though, i think he might be putting himself in sombody else's shoes, but not sure?

[hokiedevil04]

It is about Jesse. Why would you waste your time and speculate about something you don't know about?

[steve0619]

never knew he had a son is all,

and he writes many songs in 1st person about other peoples experience, so wouldnt be all that unusual

[LiquidAK91]

Haha, irony. All you're doing is speculating, the only difference between you and him is you're presenting you're speculations as fact.

[bucks696969]

@hokiedevil04 I think this song is about that dude that killed that lil girl in that limo accident, Its suppose to be from his perspective or some shit, dont quote me on that though

[hokiedevil04]

Limousine is about that girl. Brand New wouldn't make back-to-back songs about the same girl. I'll respectfully disagree with you.

[bucks696969]

@hokiedevil04 Limousine is from the mother's perspective and this song is from the drunk driver's. That's just what I thought, could be wrong ;)

[MyRosaryRomance]

@bucks696969 noo... that was Limousine. =P

[an3m6x]

unfinished business left on earth that cant do anything about because your dead and gone up in heavin. so they wont know.

[bwoi88]

omfg they were at give it a name? ffs missed it!

[novawildcat89]

his shirt is epic

[WAKETRUTHLIFE]

sounded like a dady fighting was over sea...? maybe left his pregnant wifely home.. ? might not come home..when I saw them perform this song they all knifed themselves on stage

[steve0619]

no they didnt, don't lie

[identitycrises]

what the hell is this song about

[dakshman]

i read somewhere that he has a daughter who's mother wont let him see, So his daughter doesn't even know he exists.

[identitycrises]

i heard that too. but god who knows? you won't. haha pun on wor.....yeah sorry.

[Lemonpepperchicken]

no it's about william tell. listen carefully during the bridge

[johnsteryo231]

it's a metaphor

[boxellmark27]

Some people think it's about abortion as well. I don't know though.

[identitycrises]

maybe it's an answer to when people ask what this song is about.

[steve0619]

idiot

[identitycrises]

hey! don'tc all me an idiot....dummy.

[NinjaNinjaPrime]

Jesse Lacey... deserves a country named after him.

[novawildcat89]

a continent

[SKINNYtheBEAST]

@NinjaNinjaPrime I would live there!

[mrlepercon]

stop screaming???? why???? it was awsome

[RussieSkies]

so happy to have been there, outstanding show.

[unvme601]

did he seriously wave at heaven at 2:50?

[rustandrepair]

he's just saying hi to his dad (because he's jesus lacey).

[unvme601]

hahahaha, i think jesus lacey was saying hi to kay though

[itakethesquare]

this is probably the only song on The Devil & God that brings back their heavier side from "Fav Weapon" and "Deja Entendu"

their music does get better after each album, though.

[rustandrepair]

in my opinion, the devil and god is their "heaviest" album yet.

[vivobene]

you heard daisy yet? vocally, daisy is their heaviest album to date.. but devil and god is epic

[vivobene]

i'd have said degausser is pretty heavy to be fair??

[mc3488]

this video. is a video

[diablo1883]

Perfection,

[breakingcharacter]

This is my favorite video on youtube. Period.

[icepickgamer]

so true

[JAH2488]

4:15 :D

[xxxpain123xxx]

"oh Come on!" Lol did anyone else hear that?

[grpuckett]

this song is def not about a drunk driver

[andypops]

siiiiick

[matts0717]

I thought this song is about a girl jesse used to date where the girl's parents didn't want their daughter and jesse together. I heard that someone asked jesse and thats what he told him

[vkpt22]

epic

[pwndbymcr]

that was fucking amazing.

im actually speechless right now.

it was that good.

[xoxItalianGirl]

I love this song!

[icepickgamer]

I"m pretty sure this song is about abortion...

[tdagarim09]

No its not, the beginning of the song were he says "Hey mr. hangman" and what not its the beginning of a poem called "If..." i forgot who wrote it though. but im sure it has something to do with that.

[bpeags]

i believe you are thinking of sowing season

[ButcherInABirdcage]

its about his daughter. he got a girl pregnant and she chose to not have jesse as the father. and he will never see her. and she wont ever know that hes her father. read the lyrics its sad

[katieebugx]

that is a lie.

[QHtheman]

it's about a drunk teen driver who killed a young girl. limo is about the same thing told from a different POV

[icepickgamer]

no its really not, its about his daughter. ButcherInABirdcage is spot on

[ButcherInABirdcage]

haha its spot on! there are interviews where jesse lacey explains some of his songs

[QHtheman]

give me the interview url

[ninniebear1]

hes right limo is about the same thing from different pov

[taketheveilpluto]

I like the dublin version slightly better, but this is amazing.

[drumminbum07]

this video is amazing

[hairymastadon]

in fact, this is the greatest version of all! ive been trying to find a better one lately, but with no success. i have watched this vid for the past few days and every it gives me chills...almost makes me wanna cry ;(

[hairymastadon]

best version so far

[surfsuproxii92]

does anyone know what this song means? i herd it was about his daughter who doesnt who he exist... wow that would make a great story... him having a daughter and the daughter not knowing it... and her dad is like a fucking fantastic musician!

[SlainON2nd]

i always kind of thought it was related to the limousine story, what with the "K" refference and all. and, i could be entirely wrong, but i think its supposed to be from the perspective of the man who killed her in the car accident and her family. but like i said, just a guess

[jxd549]

im so obsessed with this band and this album right now

[stillcantsleep]

Right on. ill never stop being obsessed. its so perfect for painful days. is was all i listened to for months. now when i listen to is, it still has the same power.

[17Atlantic]

in my opinion, thrice is the only band that bests brand new live. they are both incredible.

[grpuckett]

agreed lol

[mxpxchix77]

hell yeah! I AGREE!

[insideroom6277]

jesse lacey is god.

[nicbeb]

chilling.

[Bodycount611]

jesse is a fucking beast.

[RainbowsOnLegs]

I completely agree. Jesse Lacey has the most intense stage presence I have ever experienced.

[MertezAad]

This song is so overwhelming..woww:(

[chrissy0138]

what a amazing song!!!!!!!!!!

[alexohso1337]

jesse lacey is the fucking man.

[xXnewbiexninjaXx]

[tegustajazz]

[imita01]

[brittanyfogarty]

[kennethjames2011]

[daredbus]

[rainzero32]

ho ly shit...I think I just jizzed my pants...Brand new is fucking epic.

[skittletss]

this performance is just too amazing for words lol

[xyzryan13]

my favorite BRANDNEW video ever. and deffinatley the best performance of YOU WONT KNOW. love the song, so meaningfull. love it!!

[jkl628]

also the one at lollapalooza where jesse throws his guitar at brian

[6deepndark9]

One of the most powerful songs and the best live performance of it ive ever seen. Fuck Brand new is so amazing

[Wr3tched1]

definitely the best performance of You Won't Know i've ever seen.

[Kostitsyn47]

Well thank you I try my best. I'm sure your french is not so bad :P

[Kostitsyn47]

Yeah your right but I mean He's a genius just like trent reznor(I think he is) they have two different style and they are both awesome at what they do.But I uderstand what you mean and I'm agree with you.(sorry for my english I'm french)

[bernie16wb]

Your English is actually quite good. Beaucoup mieux que mon Francais.

[Kostitsyn47]

Jesse lacey is the next trent reznor!!!!

what a genius... well Like the rest of the band

[CainShankedAbel]

Enhh, I love Trent Reznor but I prefer to think of Jesse Lacey as Jesse Lacey.

But y'know, if he decides he likes annihilating all the equipment after a set more power to 'em.

[xstay18foreverx]

i'd give away all my belongings to have been there.

jesse lacey is my lord and savior.

xD kidding. but honestly. takes my breath away every time.

[cako86]

wow, this blew my mind...awesome!

[Forbizzi]

woah hes pretty amazing live, wish i could see Brand New live.

[steveneme]

This is incredible. I saw them do this song a couple weeks ago - it definitely takes me back. They put on one of the best shows I've ever seen, and that says a lot.

[lolimanogg]

this is the best thing i have ever seen.

[lolimanogg]

Deep.

[PenguinsWithLazers]

at 2:44 he prays to god.

just before the solo.

lol

i love this song its immense

[lolimanogg]

bollocks

[AJskateXedgeCT]

pretty sure he's not

[alexohso1337]

i wish i had at least half the talent jesse lacey has in just one of his thumbs

i think he's immortal

[sharpy060187]

Haha, this comment is awesome. I agree, JL is a brilliant singer, songwriter and performer, but don't forget the others! Personally I think Brian give's loads to the sound... he is such a great drummer and his beats are always so good.

[djmann72]

The best part of Brand New is they make songs about how they Really feel, example: Me vs Maradona vs Elvis. Every guy who is into girls has that part in them that will lie to girls for sex. Amazing. No exception with You

Won't Know

[Napster102489]

the end kills me.

[itsvanwyngarden]

he's so fucking amazing it hurts

[tjforizzleyeeeeah]

sick freakin video.

love this song.

i couldnt remember which song it was til i played it.

gotta see them

[RedEgoBox]

one of my favorite songs ever. love them.

[grafical]

Jesse has perfect voice:)

[DWreck39]

One thing for certain is that you cant hate Brand New. They do music right.

[McNutterbutter]

my goodness i don't know how he does it. it's like he rips his heart out at every show. it's so raw. love that guy! does anyone know what he yells before he starts screaming at the beginning?

[Brandnew4LifE]

Best BN song ever....signed it stamped it

[greatbigcanadiana]

OH. MY. GOD. 0_0

[connorcanfly]

I saw them play this song live, twice actually, it was incredible both times.

[sk8er5642]

Absolutely AMAZING!

strong music.

you have to love it or die.

[noobhelp]

jesse has to be one of the best musicians i know....man i feel his music for real. the emotion is so insane. this song still sends shivers up my spine. id kill to see it live.

[chellycheekzz]

yeah i feel the same exact way. i love how he goes so nuts about it
