Saosin - Mookies Last Christmas (Live @ Philly)

[terminaldeity]

You're welcome!

[JOHHILOR]

Hahahaha at the start!!! "SLAYER!! WHOOOOOO!!!"

[pageperpage]

...what do all of you guys think about tilian pearson (formerly from tides on man)? the dude singing for saosin for the next album? 

[thejimmy2845]

i prefer cove too. his voice is like... like a smack. and anthony is like a poke. i guess. i mean, both are equally powerful. its just the way they sing. or coves voice is wider... if you kind of get what i mean

[zwady]

why did cove start going fat?

[friendsandalibis13]

@ 1:41 :O holy shit

[friendsandalibis13]

holy shit this sounds exactly like the recorded one with anthony idk y everyone ses that anthony was soooo much better like honestly i think they sound really similar like almost the same lol

[ajfreitas10]

@biofan17 shut the fuck up faggot let people have their own opinions

[biofan21]

@FFTLDIVA DONT U EVER SAY COVE IS ANYWHERE NEAR THE SAME LEVEL AS ANTHONY........... IF IT WASNT FOR ANTHONY, COVE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO DO COVE. SO BACK OFF.... GO ANT.!!!!!

[AlmostAwkward211]

@biofan21 XD Cove is definitely on Anthony's level. Their both amazing. And personally, I like Cove's voice better because he hits the notes more clearly and you really hear the emotion in his voice. Where in my opinion, though I know Anthony didn't have to strain to hit notes, he did on purpose to throw in an intense moment which was a huge effect for any song. So both singers are amazing, I just prefer Cove.

[o88ak88]

My favourite Saosin songs are Anthony's (Mookie's last Christmas, Seven Years, 3rd Measurement in C, I Can Tell)

[o88ak88]

I like Cove. But I can't help feeling nostalgic for Anthony Green in this band, I personally liked him better

[BSiddie]

@o88ak88 i like your comment. though i 'personally' like cove better, i think anthony did a great job with saosin :)

[Losi52]

For some reason Cove sounds really good in this song. Better than songs that he actually wrote.

[Thehamez]

cove is so fucking boring on stage.

[anniewasbornfirst]

Cove is amazing.

[indieisgoodforyou]

way to copy and paste wikipedia, iamexiled

[dirTliar]

Then wat song did Cove wrote nd SINGS to become the replacement for Anthony??? i mean im just like 3rd world confused T_I

[iamexiled]

""Mookie's Last Christmas" is a song written by Saosin's former singer Anthony Green.

The lyrics are about Saosin guitarist Justin Shekoski's father, who died in a car accident. It happened on a Christmas tour, hence the title. 'Mookie' is the name of Anthony's dog. The track was not featured on Translating the Name but it was included on a compilation album, A Santa Cause: It's a Punk Rock Christmas. An acoustic version was included on Saosin's live album, Come Close"

[jefftc14]

mookie is justin's dog. On the way home from seeing them play a show his dad and brother were in a fatal car accident. Dad died brother survived.

[NayouMidori]

Why thumbs down a completely useful comment? Im thumb up-ing you, bro.

[B4Bronco6]

It's the name of one of their dogs.. I think chris' dog.

[leeeinfield]

anyone know why they used the name Mookie?

[dudage12]

SLAYER WOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! tool

[Norbertchuanjr]

noise...

[Ashtradamus]

sounds just as good as anthony to me...

[coolskaterlikeice]

slayer whooo xD!

[FFTLDIVA]

i wish people would stop comparing Coveto Anthony. Its getting old. You people are just bitter! Let Cove do Cove! Let Anthony do Anthony! Both Anthony and Cove are fucking amazing in their own way. Stop desecrating music with stupid coments!

[daytimedepressive]

anthony and cove are friends.

anthony doesn't care if he sings his songs.

anthony once said cove is meant for saosin,

ps i rate you good so do whatever you want and rate me bad.

[Supernebbie]

True true! AG has said that Cove is the one who was supposed to sing for Saosin.

[Grkmap]

@FFTLDIVA THANKYOU FOR THAT CUZ LORD KNOWS...

[biofan234]

@FFTLDIVA no u are fucking wrong they both are amazing, but anthony is by far way more amazing than cove..... understand that.

[DNCommentary]

@biofan234

very true. Cove always runs out of breath. like at 1:43 ish and he also has NO WHERE near the amount of stage presence as Green. Also Cove is a lot more pitchy.

[tullyangler1432]

show me yo booty hole!!!!!!

[friendsandalibis13]

@tullyangler1432 ahhh i was totaly thinking of that XDDDDD

[JTAZN]

Chris and justin singing into the same mic is awesome. I love this song, it means a lot. Gj Cove

[Jamieclapton]

watching theese videos is alot better than watching the ones that are on their dvd - its alot more alive

[Bansheblade]

lol at the beggining the guy is like SLAYER!

[Sam132161]

SAOSIN IS THE BEST...

[Bansheblade]

lol the guy at the beggining screams... SLAYER!

[kwatro9988]

they are the gods of all bands perfect!!!

[WeekendWarrior1210]

Finally - A group with all around talent. Great guitar players, amazing drummer, excellent vocals and bass. Perfect.

[mctreyome]

agreed =)

[BuryYourHead1337]

Right on

[Ifyoukeepaskingme]

The bassplayer kicks ass he´s such a great guy!

[Dipsetinstrum]

anthony green fucking rox

and so dos cove

[kyrahbrand]

finbally someone said that.

people always say the same shit.

if Anthony is God. Cove is trash.

or if Cove is the best thing, Anthony is just a histerical fag.

i love both. :)

[suckittrebek10]

anthony green did not write all the saosin songs. he wrote very little of the lyrics in fact. read an interview for gods sake

[amoypinoy]

either way their lyrics kicks ass dont you think?

[katana142001]

He wrote ALL of the lyrics on the translating the name. the band regularly confirms this is interviews, he wrote them out in story form first (the story form can be viewed on their website). The lyrics for I can tell, mookies, and i have become were all written by anthony as well. How about you read an interview for gods sake?

[joshvanzant]

That's like saying he didn't name the band Saosin and always used to correct people by saying it's pronounced "Say-ocean."

[confucious92]

the band calls it say - o - sin

so go by anthony green or the band?

i go with the band

[xfinchx2008x]

the band was better with anthony. He wrote this song.

[confucious92]

thats your opinion saosin got bigger and better....

so statistically your wrong. But im the first on the wagon to say anthony was amazing. Everything worked out cuz if you go your way circa survive wouldnt exist and neither would the song bury your head so suckkk it.

[Jordan123x]

the bassist wrote burry your head

[confucious92]

where does it say that?

[0nLettingGo]

envy on the coast WOO

[havananas]

like this song.. aun lang pake nyu?>?

[NoCigar12]

yes it was slayer..

[himynameiskevin2]

was the guitarist playing the opening riff for raining blood by slayer in the beginning?

[BryantWearsPrada]

WHO THE FUCK CARES WHO'S BETTER. If you like anthony better listen to the old saosin, if you like cove listen to saosin now. Everyone keeps pissin and moaning, they needed a new singer, it's cove, deal with it. Anthony isnt coming back, get the fuck over it and shut up.

[syadd]

whao this ant and cove thing is still on? man, it's irritating.

[skateordie1552]

come on guys does it really make a difference honestly i respect anthony green but who bails on a band and i respect cove cuz hes actually done really well and he's stayed with the band so its obvious who i think is better not all these other idiots that think anthony is better

[MeVsTheWorldpt1]

saosin has all the right to play the song...its written by anthony green, but as a saosin song

[jlanders07]

If you would know a little bit about Saosin, you would know that Anthony didnt write the songs, if you want an interview with proof stating he was shot down with his ideas just ask me in a message

[Floodzone004]

landers, interview. now.

[MeVsTheWorldpt1]

theyr guitarist beau did.....

anthony wrote some songs.....

i realize they shot him down....

thats why he left the band....

ok though

[filsrflih]

anthony and cove are totally chill with eachother. anthony is just fine with the fact that cove sings his songs, and thats cause cove does a great job. i don kno y every1 tries to make it seems like its a battle between the 2 its not.

[gotrice411]

whoaa cove handled it well!!!

but obviously AG pwns anyone

[STOYNESS]

it was wrote for justins dad so im sure he likes it played.

[xskatexsaosinx]

hell yehh

[OMFGHARDCORELOLZ]

Cove cannot sing any of the songs that Anthony originally sang in for shit. Although legally they may not be Anthony's, everyone knows that Anthony pretty much made those songs what they are. Cove will never be able to match Anthony's vocal abilities.

[Xtremebyrd2k6]

i agree. and he also doesnt feel the songs like anthony does

[gearbucks]

the best song of saosin

[vonzipper]

When you bail on a band( anthony green) nothing is really yours, its the bands. Unless you copy write it as an Anthony Green song.

[MookiesBlueHeaven]

i absolutely love cove and anthony...one thing i would like to hear is anthony sing 'voices". they are both extremely talented. if your pissed that anthony left, then go listen to his new music hahaha simple as that! Mookies last Christmas is defenately one of my favorite songs of all times...it gives me like this angelic feeling that i just love. i do have one question tho...is anthony the one who recorded in the studio? i cant tell! and did anthony ever play this song live?

[superaveragejoe]

anthony green wrote the lyrics to this song, but it's saosin's song. Anthony is no longer in saosin..so he gave the rights up to the song. The guys in saosin can do whatever they want with it.

[tsfsrock]

this is probably the best one cove sings though, seeing how he did get into the band by singing it for them.

[mtr]

this song makes me melt.

[tsfsrock]

im pretty sure justin wrote this.. so technically its not anthonys song.

[oreiknarf]

i think anthony wrote the song but it's about justin's dad. either way, like ewankosayo123456789 said (god that's a long name :P), it's a SAOSIN song, so everyone should just stop this cove vs. anthony shit, it's pathetic. there are 4 other guys in this band and even if anthony wrote the song, it's saosin's song. anthony quit. end of story. get over it. you can think whatever you like about cove but give the kid a break, it can't have been easy for him to replace anthony.

[maxpowers34]

im pretty sure its anthony's song seeing how majority of saosin was recorded then cove came

leave the song to green

[ewankosayo123456789]

its not anthony's song... its SAOSIN SONG!

[cmorto99]

yeah he can. this was an awesome vid of it.

[bajp19]

yeah its an anthony green song cove cant sing that good

[guitarhero2781]

mookies last christmas is coves song, not anthonys

[jjmac04]

no it's not retard

[samonte]

it really is he claims it as his song in the home of the writer thts fucked up

[samonte]

no its not

cove sang tht song as his audition

[tofusauce]

wtf are you taking about, its saosin's song! thats you don't see anthony singing it anymore jackass cause hes not allowed to.

[samonte]

cove thinks he can walk into anthony's house and sing his song

what a dick

fuck that dude

[jlanders07]

hey fucken retard if u havent noticed green is out of saosin and has been for 4 years. mookies is saosin's song and they can do whatever they want with it

[tofusauce]
