[setanmerah44]

Music yang Enak Di dengar

[BrokenSKATE123]

Why even take the effort to hit the dislike button? I don't understand how people could possibly dislike this.

[domugui]

The best!!!

[viper306]

Pure Class....

[ThePartyrockgirls]

This is a very good song, it's sad how many people commit suicide every year :(

[RudiJunicke]

Always!!!!

[stuartpisshead20011]

SUCH A SICK SONG



[emadmoudyesso]

@stuartpisshead20011 who told your mum to come here and listen to it go to hell

[uchiha1000]

I'm like in love with this song, I've listen to it like a bazillion times today

[merkaba011235813]

Thats why i dont bother with making points, because there is no point.........lol

[BankkThongchai]

nice solo !

[davmatt941]

I cant believe the amount of people that argue about meaningless things...

[carguyzo6]

their music has helped me get through bad relationships and the emotional issues I have had because my mother has cancer. I grew up fast in the last two years and Seether has been there for me.

[KhabukiJo]

@carguyzo6

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[carguyzo6]

@KhabukiJo at what? nothing i said was funny

[KhabukiJo]

@carguyzo6

It's a sad state of affairs when a song will save your life.

[carguyzo6]

@KhabukiJo I never was in a state where they saved my life. I like the band cause they have meaning behind their lyrics. idk what your talking about

[KhabukiJo]

@carguyzo6

OK it's no problem

[comeradeweepy]

if i could say only one thing to this band it would be thank you theyre music has gotten me through alot

[mroubison]

did they do this song in standard or a half step down? im too lazy to figure out myself

[westsideblood9]

@mroubison actually it was full step down



[SoldierSide77]

Love seether, but I don't like this version much for some reason.

[younmer2]

I've watched this so many times. Love it.

[its420mon]

unreal

[USMC3531tsd]

What the fuck, who the hell was even talking to you? Get bent fanboy. And let WJHAT go, something I haven't commented on in almost TWO fucking months YOU LET IT GO

[DaveyButtonsForEyes]

i didnt know Ryan Dunn plays bass for Seether xD

[karateowain]

Awesome!



[ThuggyD324]

nirvana is great, but they aint got nothin on seether.

[ihatesquirrel13]

@ThuggyD324 i hate comparing bands but ...until a band sells a amount of cd's even close to another band can you call them as good..you may like the sound as well etc. but in the end money talks..and sales talk..its how bands are rated in history

[JoannaMcCarty]

I can't even understand that 5 people don't like this?!

[rbatts08]

You can feel the emotion he puts in to this. Beautiful. <3

[BunniePetrarch052]

Get the audio from this clip at soundnabber doht cohm.

[MrHeadlessmusician]

I want more bands that " try to sound like nirvana". I miss that kind of music. Wish people weren't so afraid of what other people think. If you have songs that sound like nirvana songs, put them out there. Lets here them.

[kempokiai]

Youtube's Comments aren't even comments anymore. >.>

Trolling disgusts me -_-;

[TheOneX32]

This song, Lifeline by Papa Roach, and Second Chance by Shinedown helped me through my depression after my friend died of cancer.

[nalapunker]

you know it will always be polemic that if seether is like nirvana face it they will never be the same compare them is worthless they are both great bands in their own personal style theey are awesome im huge fan of both and i wnjoy their musica no their equals

[FLUFFYGREGORY]

Eugene Welgemoed RIP REST IN PEACE 4 PEOPLE ARE NOT GETTING IT THROUGH THEIR FUCKING THICK SKULL THAT THIS IS A TRIBUTE TO HIS BROTHER LIVE ON Eugene Welgemoed

[USMC3531tsd]

@FLUFFYGREGORY < Oh fuck off...

[FLUFFYGREGORY]

Eugene Welgemoed RIP REST IN PEACE

[musicislove90]

I'm in love with Shaun's voice. ugh. :]

[MrVoices666]

i wanna cry when i see shauns desolate face. it´s so full of sadness and pain:(

thumbs up if you feel the same

[USMC3531tsd]

@MrVoices666 < When I see that face in this vid I think, "gee this guys trying way too hard to look like Kobain". Look Up "all apologies unplugged" and you'll see a damn near mirror shot.

[MrVoices666]

@USMC3531tsd

Sry but i can´t agree.. Who says that they want to be like Cobain? I know Nirvana and of course their legendary unplugged concert, but god damn it who care´s if they are a bit like Nirvana? As they started, they covered Nirvana. Shit who didn´t?

[USMC3531tsd]

@MrVoices666 < Remember Puddle of Mud? Blatant style rip offs. It's one thing to be inspired by or even emulate but to cut your hair and mimic the facial expressions and mannerisms of another artist is just...rude. I'm not talking about sound or even the band as a whole so you can knock off that "they " shit. I'm talking about this guy trying to copy another mans specific style and look. LOOK, not sound LOOK.

[MrVoices666]

@USMC3531tsd

Ever heard about Inspiration?

[USMC3531tsd]

@MrVoices666 < Inspiration is NOT copying. Gwen Stefani is clearly inspired by Monroe, you can hear it in her voice but she's not making herself "be" Monroe. She has her OWN style that is unique to her but you can tell where she got her spark. THIS jackass is merely mimicking someone elses' style and facial mannerisms, damn near Mocking him, that's not "inspiration" that's theft.

[MrVoices666]

@USMC3531tsd

xD Look at her. Doesn´t she copy marilyn as well? Look her hair. Look her performance. It´s fake. Only because Shaun is kind of similar to Kurt? He love Nirvana. And he´s impressed by his music. Who fucking isn´t? This discussion won´t help us to an end.

[USMC3531tsd]

@MrVoices666 < You're right, You just don't have a grasp on reality and are to much of a simpleton to understand reason so conversing with you in futile. I bet you think Elvis Impersonators are simply "inspired" by Elvis and a beautiful expression of originality. I get it, you're a fanboy and you just loves you some Seether, Fuck sake...you're worse than a Travis Barker freak.

[MrVoices666]

@USMC3531tsd

Fucking kid. Elvis imitator´s are inspired from elvis. Otherwise they WOULDNT do such a shit.

[ihatesquirrel13]

@USMC3531tsd and 50 guys probably made that same face before kobain...let it go..kobain didnt invent music or experessions..sorry

[doodlin17]

the intro sounds like lazy eye by silversun pickups lol!!!

[Oozywolf]

4 dislikes? How in the world could you not like music?

[cchavez1000able]

SUICIDE IS A PERMANANT SOLUTION FOR A TEMPARARY PROBLEM SO DONT DO IT

[acorn2taco]

One of the most heartfelt acoustics I have ever heard. Beyond wicked lovely.

[redheadrockchick]

Just beautiful.

[maureenandrea]

Great worship song...for me anyway.

[samwa123]

beginning sounds a bit like smashing pumpkins with those major sevenths, pretty cool

[wennlhet]

great band

m ur nu fan

[bigdanfan2377]

hey, so does anyone know what chords Shaun is playing during the chorus? all i can make out is the, but one of the mics is right in front of his hand.

[GonzoBlade]

@bigdanfan2377

His guitar is tuned to CGCFAD so you won't be able to tell the chords just by looking at it. They have tabs on Ultimate Guitar that are pretty decent.

[n8vguitar]

original version is half step down drop D but this is whole step during the course he uses D and G

[rockabillychickee]

awesome, would love to see them live

[shinedownluvr]

I got to see them live back in 08 along with shinedown and a slew of other bands! Met them and shinedown at the concert! It was awesome both bands were great and they are nice guys!

[jordandainton]

This song cheers me up because in the makeing of the Rise Above This video he talks about the song and he's like "Yeah it's sad because he's gone but the song is about looking for the optamistic side of it" and knowing that if somebody could lose somebody so close and still look to the optamistic side really makes you think "Are my problems really so bad?"

[PEPsiMAXextreem]

it's too sad that shauns brother died :'(

[MaddlyM]

Holy shit that sounds just like Kurt Kobain!! what a rip off

[ihatesquirrel13]

kobain doesnt have a corner on the market..just cuz someone sounds like him...the song is nothin like nirvana..im a huge nirvana fan..u gotta let it go

[FroRage1]

@ihatesquirrel13 yeah i agree the closest Seether has come to sounding like nirvana was gasoline

[nfarnham2008]

@FroRage1 yeah even the video from gasoline looked a lot like teen spirit

[frazzledfry]

@ihatesquirrel13 the song and Shuan's voice do have a Nirvana-esque tone and quality to it... so what, Seether and Shaun are all very talented artists with their own voices, from time to time a piece of work may have similar qualities from other artists. in some ways songs write themselves, an artist should never change a piece because it may be similar to someone/thing else

[ihatesquirrel13]

@frazzledfry i dont get your point? i wasnt rippin it or saying they sounded the same..i dont care if they do or dont sound the same..i told nirvana fans to let go of "there ripping off nirvana" crap..did you reply to the wrong person ?

[frazzledfry]

@ihatesquirrel13 no... i was agreeing with in a long winded comment... personally, if i were to put my heart into a song and it had a similarity to a great band i would take it as a compliment... anyone who thinks Seether pays their bills and gets their bookings trying to copy Nirvana is off the mark.

[MrAerthain]

@ihatesquirrel13 My moto is if the band is good listen, if it doesn't appeal to you then don't, no reason to complain about seether =) Seether is amazing as is nirvana

[ankithbk29]

@ihatesquirrel13 at least spell his name correctly .Yes, nirvana is my favourite band too but seether is amazing as well.

[ihatesquirrel13]

@ankithbk29  who gives a rats ass how its spelled..you knew what i meant

[ankithbk29]

@ihatesquirrel13 lol valid point !

[thomflan]

@MaddlyM dude if you had that type of talent you would do the same... kurt is someone that artists look up to, not someone they immitate....

i love nirvana, and if he sounds similar than that's all the better :D

[andrasiboti]

well it's similar 2 kurts voice in the unplegged gig but not exactly...not a rip off,deffntly!

[ImNotTheWayILook]

he has easily one of the most amazing voices i've heard

[Bac0nNinja]

RIP Eugene morgan

[ajlouw]

Eugen Morgan Welgemoed

[JTGyoyo]

@NJDevilsDude4: Its Grunge so they normally sound sad. Kurt did too at least in some songs and he wrote that song because of all the fucking suicides all over the world. the song is about how you hurt the people that love you when you kill yourself

[NJDevilsDude4]

Shawn seems depressed egerytime he's performing....in sone of his music videos too.....poor guy

[zandromada]

this song is about his brother committing suicide. they had to keep remaking the music video because shawn kept breaking down and crying

[countrybros1]

im not saying your wrong but usually some people its a habit to do emotion while singing good performance

[snipermonkey86]

I don't really like the backing vocals during the chorus....other than that it's good.

[jmfanclub]

really? I quite like them :)

[92BCornelius]

clouds....not clowns

[freekickdavid]

great song, pretty easy to play, its the first song i took the time to learn

[Cpmaster4587]

LOL. At the end he strums it and goes "Oops"

[caboose4895]

grate song ... but brengs bak bad memores

[Unforgiven9119]

fail

[caboose4895]

what do you mean?

[Unforgiven9119]

"grate" song ... but "brengs" "bak" bad "memores"

fail spelling bra.

[caboose4895]

wel not evreone can be a A+ speller dude.

[musicgoat1]

Love this tune! This is a good version but it loses the punch and the energy the original has.

[avisionofsorrow]

It is acoustic- hence the loss.

[efreijoso]

everyone is always comparing one artist to the other, people don't realize that they don't have to do that, you don't have to chose one band over the other. I love DMB and they are one of my favorite but that does't have anything to with Seether. They are a completely different sound and i can admire and love them for that. Having choices is the best. You can like any band you want any sound you want and go with that.

[bigddetroit]

right on

[musicgoat1]

Amen!

[jocr23]

Seether is a GREAT Band!!!!!!!!!!!!! =D

[holdmeimscary]

i love dale, but i have to say troy sounds better on back up, dale's voice is just so timid

[threedaysgracefan6]

man, he has such a great voice. im so jeaous lol

[3DGFORLYFE]

jus smoke for 10 yrs ull sound lik tht... lol ya i love his voice is awesome

[havoc306]

the original is so much better

[fullbnelson]

why do you say that? have you heard the iTunes originals performance of this? same version as this one is. the most amazing performance ever by far.

[Destinazioneparadiso]

Seether and Dave Matthews Band both born in South Africa,

great bands, great song...

[Joshload]

indeed!

[deth349]

DMB and seether could never be put 2gether!

[buffguy0]

Literally no joke,I was watching this,and it put me to sleep,NOT THAT ITS BORING,that is the complete opposite of what im saying i love seether,r.i.p eugene

[mageXsessho]

i think i get what you're saying, is it that its so calm and zen and amazing?

[buffguy0]

Hellyeah I didnt want people to be under the impression of me hating. lol

[jonathanc619]

this song is sad he wrote this about his step bro who killed himself so it must be hard for him not to cry

[emmaaaaargh]

perfection.

[disclaim400]

this is the best song ever i like the way he plays the acoustic

[VilkacisMusic]

This actually sounds like grunge.

They need to play with this style all the time, they don't need all that post production shit.

[Joshload]

indeed. they sound geat.

[ottbum]

amazing

[katew420]

hey its kurt with a lip ring (: great song....

[themacfan45]

Awesome. But one thing, Why is the guitarist the bassist instead of Dale?

[3dvisions]

What do you mean Dale is playing bass in this song. I think he switches for "Broken" maybe that's what you mean, but i think that's the only song in which he plays guitar.

[emmaaaaargh]

is shaun's guitar nylon strung? it doesn't sound harsh enough to be steel strings! maybe a stupid question... god i love this version.

[guitarman37373]

They look like regular guitar strings to me, he's just playing softly

[TheNewNewfie]

Great.

[foreversaiyjin]

These guys fucking rock

[thiefofpeace]

god this song has some of the best instrumentals i've ever heard

[youlivewhatyoulearn]

awesome

[ElusiveChalmers]

This is one of the best songs Ive heard in a time. But this version is so sick! his voice is rediculously awesome.

[thiefofpeace]

that was awesome!

[soad578]

'Call your name everyday when I feel so helpless. I've fallen down but I'll rise above this'

I love this song... And this was pretty awesome. I love his voice.

[ccccollleeennnn]

I really think that acoustic version of this song is very powerful. his vocals are excellent.

very niiiice

[bsd21568]

Is there any better voice,i don't think so.

[runescaperules]

even though u cant compare them cuz they sound different i say steven tyler of aerosmith but ur right he has a good voice to

[bsd21568]

i'm finaly gonna get to see them Feb 27th in Lexington Ky,I can't wait.

[jimmypageforprez]

and Cobain they both have a lot of emotion in their voices and he was a huge influence on them

[stoneandeddie]

his voice is so raw & pure.. it gives me major shivers every time I hear it & get a video with it and it's like an explosion

check Truth from One Cold Night.. aaah!!

[Logoman91]

Absolutely loved it!!!

[zeroziplock]

his voice is powerful..amazing

[Vladis112]

I've started to cry.. Beutiful song

[SeetherFrenzy]

Powerfull

[TUFDC]

simply... beautiful

[DanBeHappy31793]

he was feeling helpless....... i feel so bad

[med0722]

I think the acoustic is better than the original. This is a pretty amazing song.

[josemiguelalvara]

Awesome song!

[amenita13]

Shawn has such an amazing voice

[ryancrows07]

nice nice nice

[DavefromTinj]

the first time i seen the video, i had to turn it off cause i started to get choked up, its an epic song.

[x0xSilentScreamerx0x]

this acoustic version is brilliant...there is so much emotions put into this song!

This song really means alot..Lets people know that Suicide is not always the answer and it also lets people know that suicide effects many people!

R.I.P Eugene (1987-2007)...(Shaun's brother)

<3

[farneti305]

No doubt, well said.

[Mortalice1]

@x0xSilentScreamerx0x

I totally agree with you on that one mate, my mate tragically died this past week and i am finding is so hard, i havent seen him in years but had just found him on facebook 4 days before he did it, so i have been finding myself listn to this song and thinkin of him, and how i myself have risen above my own demons, im just so gutted i didnt get in contact with him sooner and be there for him. R.I.P Shea, miss you. 1982-2010

[x0xSilentScreamerx0x]

@Mortalice1

Awh Im sorry to hear about your mate. You may not have seen him in years but atleast you got to know him again before he did what he did. Now he's in a better place. You may not have spoke to him in ages but you were still there for him in his last days and thats all you need to remember.

[deviloncrack114]

that dude is amazing.he plays the guitar good

[elementwarrior321]

[badderthanyou]

[WINGS1995]
