[kenny222]

Everytime I hear this and it's reaches the crescendo of epicness (just after 'his body was black and blue) it gives me shivers.

[ZednotZeeAndAddaU]

they play a lot faster, still sweet as ass though !

[DiscoveryDoctor]

i just want to be jumping up and down in a pitch black room...BLARING this song!

[Peeto87]

This is great except for the silly video effects. How did you get one of them playing in what looks like a bedroom?

[juancarlosnoriega]

love this song. great band. thanks for the live footage and mix

[nahalod]

his voice sound morriseyish, but damn good.

[fhdfba007]

stupid crowd.. they dont realise how lucky they are :(

[predator92lol007]

Saw them yesterday in Holland, one word: fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tbarragan29]

I'm so glad i discovered this band. i was really hating music lately. Gives me hope...can anyone suggest other bands in this same vane? I've listened to the twilight sad and frightened rabbits...love them too...thanks!

[elbinar]

they must be amazing live.... too bad i'll prob never see them :(

[mjstewster]

look at how sad those crowds are. the band is excellent, but the crowds are pitiful

[davthom]

these videos were taken around this time last year, before the band had released anything. so no-one you see at these shows was familiar with the song at the time... not that that's any excuse for the lack of crowd action of course, but it may at least explain it a little!

[Fon20032]

Why the hell there is no one jumping???

[Jolana25]

and it's thunder and it's lightening....

[Jolana25]

They are amazing! Right foot followed my your left foot.

[lightthiscity11]
