  • Senses FAIL

  • they are def more of a solid band now , but to be fair alot of excellent bands sound like shit on tv bcuz the sound stages suck sometimes. some things have gotten better with senses fail but i absolutely love Still searching :)

  • the band is awesome but this live performance brought out the FAIL in senses fail

  • @rkerr5 yeah they were never good live

  • i love senses fail but Buddy can't sing live.. he needs to take lessons for live shows,

  • @igottehgoodstuffz Really the sound guy should be blamed. Buddy aint perfect, but he was actually on point most of the time. They just mixed the sound like shit.

  • is Buddy gay?

  • @acrock21 cool

  • these guys remind me of my favorite band Story of the Year. best 2 bands!!!!!!!

  • back when his vocals werent strung out

  • when did ABC have good taste in music?! \m/

  • Buddy struggles a little bit while singing live, but the emotion he brings to the songs makes up for it. GO SEE THEM LIVE!!! Awesome experience!

  • @TheNoisyOwl He took singing lessons. He KICKS SO MUCH ASS now!

  • @PentucketXC05 dude didnt he always?

  • @MusicMan31127 Nope. At least, he took some more. He is way better live now.

  • @PentucketXC05 dude he is friekin sick live now!! and i never knew he could scream like this well either!

  • this song actually isnt that bad live

  • Scratch that, the instruments sound good... it is just his voice sounds shit live

  • @Mrblazinfreak Have you got their latest live DVD? There are vids of it on youtube. Give 'em a watch, this video was put up 4 years ago, buddys voice has improved and Heath takes over some of the vocals which takes the strain off of him a bit.

  • @ausnick2001 heath left dude. im so bummed. there goes all the solos.

  • @TheB0ulevardz Yeah, I know. The live DVD was his farewell show. Zablocki has left aswell...bad times...are they going to be turning up on this UK tour with any guitarists? :p

  • @ausnick2001 they might be, they have some dude named roach, haha

  • i don't know if it is just me, but they sound shit live... but on there CDs they sound AMAZING.

    They are my favorite band ever but i don't think i will be seeing them live

  • My sister saw them in concert in Atlanta a few days ago, said they were really good live.

  • theyre coming to st. pete on wednesday, im so excited :D

  • what i give to see senses fail live...

  • wow hes actually not singing to badly here for a live show

  • why do they always play THIS song?

  • @lionatemeboy its there best song 

  • there music singing is awful live..

  • i thought this was a fail video......waist my time.

  • @magyarR34 cant even spell waste rite shut up

  • @ajeanlouis1 you cant even spell RIGHT lol

  • @ajeanlouis1 Can't even spell right, correctly. Shut your mouth.

  • This band definitely deserves to go places. They are very entertaining to watch live :)

  • I love the band, but they would be better live if buddy didn't have his hand on the top of the mic.

  • Kimmel kicks ass for putting on sweet bands on his show.

  • Damn, this song sounds bad ass off the album and when their playing live. =) SF Kicks ass!

  • This video proves two things

    1 Buddys live voice sounded hell of alot better then it does now.

    2 He should of never buzzed his hair

  • Buddy has never been fat your fucking stupid ! Just cuz he's in a band doesnt mean he's goto look like a starved 13 year old..He's awsome and still puts on a killer show..And he's got heart something that the faggots in bands like Breathe Carolina and All time Blow dont have and that one douche Nevershoutnever.

  • @PassTheflask22 Hell yes man speak the truth! buddys lyrics are the most honest thing anyones ever written. and breathe carolina and all those dumbasses aare poserss

  • @PassTheflask22 why is christofer drew a douche do u have a legitamite reason or do u just think because alot of people like him ur not going to cause thats "comformity" he is nothing but having a good time he is a true hippie and we deff need more of them

  • @4EVRblink182 Becuse he is a pedefile who sleeps w 14 yr olds just because he's bulit his own ego cuz hes attractive to underage girls.. He s not a real hippy lol.

    He's just a talentless scene kid like so many just writing music to get attention and creatin this bs image. And not that many people like him and most guys cant stand him,we all know why hes popular.Just look at his fan base lol 18 and under

  • @PassTheflask22 i think you my new best friend haha. Senses fail kicks ass. No doubt about that, theyre not mainstream, and never will be

  • /wrist @-) but soooo awesome!!!

  • when buddy was skinny, he was a way better singer i thihnk. but he has always badass xD

  • dude, buddy has ALWAYS been awesome, skinny or fat lol

  • i think i can sing better than buddy does live. sf is still badass for sure!

  • you can all say what you want about SF but they have been around for a while now and have a huge fan following. i have been a fan since the start and can say that he has gotten better live. alot of bands have their high moment and than die away but SF always comes back!

  • Buddy is a douche in person. Senses Fail is good, Buddy is a prick.

  • lol every time i meet them he is totally awesome.

  • @roses4thedeadxXx probably because you have tits haha

    Nice guys are Jesse Lacey (Brand New) and John Nolan (Straylight Run).

    They are the nicest guys ive ever met.

  • haha probably. :)

  • sucks for you he was cool when i talked to him

  • iamlameduck! this is live! and buddy always performed fucken drunk ass fuck! thats y he sounds like shit!

  • Buddy Nielsen- the DGAF mascot

  • buddy's voice has been blown out from years of screaming and singing, and it sounds better in studio because he has time to rest between recordings, but when you're playing a show almost every night it's tough to keep it up, i know from experience

  • Buddy has some trouble live. He sounds great on record, and he's an amazing lyricist. Especially in "Life is not a Waiting Room". And the other musicians are awesome. I just think Buddy needs some vocal lessons.

  • Buddy also runs out of breath due to the amount of energy he exerts on stage, look at 1:55 when he stands still.

  • I <3 Buddy

  • ok listen....Buddy is definetly not the best live singer...however he makes it work, the great thing about rock in general is that not everything is perfect especially live performances, its mostly about emotion and feel and Buddy does a damn good job putting everything he's got into it

  • He's got a lot of emotion man. He's definitely not the worst out there. Honestly the only thing I think he needs is some vocal lessons. I'm not talking years and years of private study but just maybe month or two to get him pointed in the right direction. The only reason he's continually getting worse is because he's been singing incorrectly for so long it's damaging his vocal cords, same thing happened to Guns 'n' Roses' singer.

  • Amen

  • @Pravo13 this is them at their best

  • Matthewweez, if Buddy is such a horrible singer, why is he making money doing things that you can only dream of doing? Why does his band have a following of millions? How have they sold so many records?

  • auto-tune and studio tricks used to make a record doesnt help your voice in a live performance

  • dude, you're so fucking ignorant. find one sign of autotune on any of the albums, i dare you. and i happen to record in a studio. believe me, there are no "studio tricks" that produce talent. and if there are any you know of, lets hear em. Im not even a big fan of senses fail. to be honest, i dont really like them at all. buddy might not be the best singer, but it gets the job done. hes aging, and you, respectfully, dont know shit. listen to Daughters.

  • I agree. Auto tune is and should only be used when only a few notes need tuning and even then it's not even a half step. The only advantage the studio has over live is that the artists can try again until they get it perfect. However in a live situation they have one shot to do it all.

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH

    "I happen to record in a studio. believe me, there are no 'studio tricks' that produce talent."

    Are you fucking retarded? Listen to a vocal track without compression, EQ and reverb and then after the effects are applied. Are you fucking deaf?

  • @iamlameduck ur a faget y dont u play a live show n compare urself to buddy

  • @iamlameduck Is it possible that you scurry around YouTube to annoy fans of certain music because you lack the talent to imitate or accomplish any of the things that said bands have accomplished years ago? Is it possible that you are jealous because you have the desire to tour the country and entertain people with your talents? Maybe it's a desire to actually have any talent at all. You say we have shitty music taste, but last time I checked, music taste is an opinion. Nice try.

  • Absolutely not. Do you think I'm jealous of their guitarists' ability to play octaves and power chords, occasionally palm muting? I stopped being impressed by that around age 14. Then when I subbed on drums for a national band, I saw about 100 drummers who can bash their heads and cymbals at the same volume for 3 minutes. You think I'm jealous of a bunch of talentless hacks because they got on a third-rate late night show? Get real, cockhole.

  • senses fail is a win. enuf said

  • yh i agree man, very amatuer performers. musics alrite bt if ure a singer by proffession ud expect better than this!

  • @fizz131 Music is pretty terrible. Few bands are worse.

  • HEY! i LOVE the baja men!!! but yeah bro your an asshole. dont look this up if you hate it.

  • stupid asshole

  • @iamlameduck didn't they release who let the dogs out?

  • 0:36 that guy was really good..but they kicked him

  • they kicked dave out because he wasn't any good, he couldn't write music, as said by the band

  • Actually...if you look into it...Dave Miller quit the band to pursue other things. He wasn't kicked out. He left on his own accord. Maybe you guys should get the right details before you go spouting off at the mouth :)

  • i hate it when singers put notes they can only hit in the studio in the song. WHY put it in the song?? sounds terrible live

  • kind of like Green Day 21 Guns?

  • NOT PROTEST THE FUCKING HERO

  • I've never heard of that band but I'll check it out.

  • Qual o nome dessa musica ?

  • buried a lie

  • Hmmm, they look...different than i expected. Whatever.

  • ha buddy does look a lil silly here

  • keep in mind how old this is

  • senses fail is awesome

  • Great song, but he totally blows at singing live.

  • i'm with ya. on albums his voice is real good. like it suits the music real well and it's different. but live its garbage

  • the singer sounds so gay here!!

  • the singer looks so tired.....

    nice band anyways

  • I think they sound good live lool

  • wow, he's having a little trouble hitting those high notes. terrible live.

  • I love buddy's voice...on CD. God they would be incredible if he could sing live =(

  • ive seen tthese guys twice and met em their the shit

  • im going to agree. I like senses fail. they are good live. but this video isnt anything great. i wouldve been bummed if they were this bad when i saw them.

  • First of all if u don't like them don't listen to them second of all it's hard to sing high notes when you jump around like that it doesn't sound bad it just sounds different you fucking haters....

  • lol, do you remember when senses fail "played" Rum is for Drinking not for Burning on Connan? They fucked it up and had to walk off...it was sad. I might be on youtube.

  • It's funny to see how much Buddy has changed over the years.

  • And he has always been the coolest guy ever.

  • lol pink

  • senses fail always sounds sucky live its just hard to sing that way (although a skylit drives lead singer sounds amazingly good live) they still rock!!!

  • you don't go to a whole lot of local shows do you?

  • lol not as many as i would like to.

  • hope you mean their new singer(skylit drive). Their old one couldn't hit the high notes off their first cd. He was better though. Horrible live, at singing.

  • yes, i liked the old singer but the new one can acctuly sing pretty good

  • they sound great live. you've probably just never seen them and youtube ruins audio.

  • they kinda do suck live. seen em twice. I love them but............. ya gotta admit....... theyre more "studio" musicians

  • i've seen them over 5 times live, they're not the same as the CD version, but he still has a fucking good voice..

  • Guitar, Bass and Drums are AWESOME!. Buddy needs to work a little bit more...

  • hes always like this in live performances. haha. the magic of music

  • they're a post-hardcore band missing a few notes is ok as long as you stay intense and its a miracle that buddy doesnt sound terrible on this lol

  • It's cause this is old, he sucks now but was good back then, although he was pretty good when i saw him a few months ago, he was screaming sooooo low XD

  • is it just me or do they sound terrible in this?

  • they suck.

  • bass and 2nd guitar should had never left the band

    =/

  • I agree. Mike made this band.

  • Wow the bass player played a whole bunch of bum notes at the start. Haha. I like this band...it's a shame i have not seen one great performance from them.

    Tip one...don't jump around if you can't hit notes while doing so.

  • im liking buddy's hair

  • this band is great, they're amazing live, and amazing in studio, so what if he missed a few notes?

    alot of people can't do this, and he shows that he can :)

  • This is a pretty good live show compared to what some bands do. Stop being fucking stupid, so he didn't hit a few notes, ok...

    Considering all the movement and other things that go on before and during a live show, anything that is similar to the record is good in my opinion. In a studio you stay in one spot and can put 100% concentration onto your sound, in a live show you cannot.

  • he actually doesnt sound bad he jsut isnt hitting any of the high notes he does on the record

  • worst live band i've ever seen..but i like their recorded songs.

  • I think they sound pretty good. And the worst band you've seen live are you kidding me? Theres WAY worse and then guys and there not bad at all.

  • *cough* Linking Park *cough*

  • linkin park doesnt have a g

  • faillllllllll, i'm pretty sure I wrote that at like 4 in the morning lol.

  • fuel sucks dick live with theyre new singer i saw them with smashing pumpkins on theyre reunion tour

  • Stop hating on this.

    I saw them in November, and they were amazing. Sometimes even the best live bands can suck at times live, when on tour your voice goes to hell. Buddy is also a wild and crazy performer, he's not all about trying to sound perfect live. His energy is amazing.

    Also take into consideration that this was recorded from TV.

  • i think his voice sounds fine and almost album quality for most of the song excluding a few words here and there. ialmost never hear any bands perform hardcore and hit high notes like on the album version. it just doesnt work like that

  • right onnn

  • THANK YOU. buddy is awesome

  • meh his singing in this performance isnt nearly as bad as some of the others ive seen, but nonetheless he is a bad vocalist

  • i LOVE senses fail...but buddy looks straight up homo here =/ just expressin my thought..

  • buddy has different hair every time i see him, i just got done watching a video of him with frosted tips. thank god he doesnt have that hair anymore.

  • i think his vocals are pretty decent live..id rather see a band whos singer moves around and gets into it and has half decent vocals then a band who just stands there

  • They were good live at the start of his career with senses fail, but they've gotten worse because he smokes and drinks too much.

    it's a shame, but his recorded stuff and new cd is fuckin amazing, so i'm not bothered =]

  • Exactly. Seeing a band play that just stand and sing is boring. Hawthorne Heights is an example. I saw them in Pomona, CA. I was pretty bummed they didn't move around. But out of all the bands I've seen live, Senses Fail moves the crowd the most and Buddy is always into it. He just feeds off his emotions onstage and I love it. Sure, SF doesn't sound all that great live but all three times I've seen them, I haven't been disappointed one bit.

  • i watched fall out boy perform once on mtv and they were playing dance dance i believe. they are terrible live. they just stood there. i couldnt take it so i flipped the channel. Senses Fails albums are amazing even tho live it sounds different. the voice is almost NEVER as good as an album.

  • Maybe if he wasn't drunk all the time he could actually put on a good show.

  • I saw them 2 weeks ago in Seattle and they put on one of the best shows I have ever seen... Even musicians have their off days

  • He was drunk off his ass at Kimmels. :P

  • One of the few times Id heard a good live video of them. But you can tell the difference from Let it Enfold You songs live, and Live songs from their newer album. Its huge. I like their newer stuff better.

  • aw that's sad

  • i like them live =]

    whoever hates them live is just a dude or dudett wannabe that wants to become famous in fact they maybe think they should be famous instead of senses fail *sigh*

    get a life napsters.

  • i actually think this is one of buddys best vocal performance..everybody is too hard on him...who gives a fuck if you sing good or bad..its about the songs and the music they make and how those songs inspire people..like they inspire me....by the way senses fail is really more of a studio band than a live on but i like em live too

  • well... the way you sound does count as well.. like fuck in order to get that feeling you get from the message from a song you need that voice, if you sound like shit then that message becomes worthless. (kinda like public speaking)

  • i hate it when bands cant even sing there own songs

  • his voice is awesome, but nowadays, he suck

  • bad singer

  • then how come they have fans?

  • ehhh i like senses fail but fans don't mean a band is good, so awful point there

  • i forgot what i even said or what i was arguing. im starting to agree. i like them but damn. buddy cant sing.

  • this was actually one of buddys better sounding performances lol

  • they came to my hometown a few years ago. he wasnt too terrible, but like in this vid, his voice was off key quite a bit.

  • oh well

  • Okay, there is a difference in singing by yourself in a studio, and singing in front of hundred of people.

    You also have to put in to consideration, that they've been touring, and how that puts a strain on their voice.

    I'm not saying Senses Fail's live performances are perfect, or ever will be, I'm saying, it's tough to reenact what they produce on a studio album.

  • well every single band has to tour its the whole point of it

  • They are awesome no matter what

  • idk what all the arguing is for. i think he sounds GREAT! i mean i know he's not like a textbook good singer but i LOVE the way his voice sounds and it doesn't sound a whole lot different between him live and him in the studio. i think this sounded awesome!

  • I don't care about his singing... Just going to see them live is all I need, they're an amazing band no matter

  • There isn't really any good reason for him to not be able to sing. He isn't even playing a guitar. WTF?

  • look, we can argue about this all night long, the truth is, whether you think he's good live or not, SF will continue to play live and in front of people who are having too much to fun give two shits about what he sounds like....none of us are gonna sound perfect live, get over it

  • thank you! who cares what they sound like live? not me i still buy there cds, they will never perform good live its just the way it is you cant be perfect night in and night out its just not gonna happen at least you know he is signing not doing what others would do when they dont sound like a cd.

  • someone didnt have his wheaties today that was horrible they sound much better on cd

  • Senses fail's first CD was the most epic album ever but the last two were pretty weak...but I dont know if its the lead singers fault why this performance sucks... that microphone sucks..he had to sing louder than usually because the mic was turned down too low...it just seems like hes yelling to be louder then the guitars and drums.

  • WRONG

    watch a million senses fail videos... he will sound like that live every time

    its because hes not as grea
