Brand New - Jesus (Live From Studio) ft. Kevin Devine

[m01up]

cool stuff

:D

[ItsAlwaysRainingInWa]

Well I can appreciate this.. It sounds very bluegrass ish, which is most likely what they were going for. Kudos Brand New. It reminds me a lot of Modest Mouse as well.

[Vern09able]

I don't like this version, at all. Only because the original song is the most amazing piece of music I've ever heard..literally. Perfection shouldn't be tampered with! This doesn't even feel like the same song...the feel is all gone :( But, it's Brand New, so I'm going to give this video a thumbs up and then go listen to the original :)

[Poetalavoe]

i love brand new, but i honestly don't like this tempo at all. original song way better then this

[ZekeThompson22]

This is amazing! This is hands down one of my favorite bands of all time!

[TheAlmightyRobinator]

I'm going to be controversial and say I like this version better.

[SAIL4323]

If this band was #1 for nine weeks on the Alt Nation countdown at one point, then how come I haven't heard of this band or this song?

[Mr666goon]

Looking forward to Kev comoing back to the UK

[Sdozeman]

Why does Jesse's guitar have the words "STOP NASA" on his guitar? Anyone else catch that? 4:38

[MoboboboPorisean]

This song makes me want to kill myself

[MrEMinor]

haha Jesse makes a tiny wee mistake at 4:13

feel like a dick for pointing it out

[666goodintentions]

It's so weird at this speed..

[MrJoshuaAndy]

I wish the tempo was slower

[genibabe7]

"turn turn" or "tongue tied"..."hate factory"? pandora says "tongue tied", I hear "turn, turn"

seriously help

[MsWillange]

@genibabe7 It's tongue tied.

[crybaby87Crosby]

This version has grown on me alot

[maurageous]

I like the simplicity of the album cut better, but this one is still great.

[mattb00th]

he sounds way to sissy for me to enjoy the actual song....

[miumiuhasnotime]

This version is far better than the original one.

[waaiken]

@miumiuhasnotime i can't vote up enough!!!! :(

[yourinmyworldnow1]

WOW! COOL!

[JenniferxLynne]

NOOOOOO!!!! This is HORRABLE!!!

[quartercherries]

@JenniferxLynne Learn to spell!

[Musicmaster182]

Why am I just now seeing this?!?! I love Brand New and Kevin Devine! Shit...Where have I been!!!

[gutterphenomenon24]

i like but i dont love this version

[cherzsmileyy]

this version's much more cheery compared to the original, but i love both:) God bless Brand new

[Vespiion]

@cherzsmileyy This one seems more cheery because there is no way for them to replicate the emotional turmoil that was happening in each of their lives at the time of recording The Devil And God. Beautiful just the same.

[itsanthonytime]

i dont like it :\

[drtran227]

This is good....but I miss the kind of dark feel to the song, and the scream at the end

[atrocityexhibition12]

Fuck everyone.

[mkronck]

I edited the original track Jesus and made a 7 minute extended version of this song. s'on my profile if you wanna see it.

[Fanchus]

lol I don't get ads because I don't live in the country where you live, you jelly? I guessed so...

[kunkle493]

I just cannot understand how you can dislike this

[randomactsok]

Is there anyway to download this version?

[WarOnNostalgia]

@randomactsok Just use a youtube downloader, to rip the song

[fbaumans]

@randomactsok copy the url link, go to the youtube-mp3 website and convert

[rockstarblaze13]

Jesus... what a good collab! but i missed the howling climax at the end... still a good twist though! and i hate vevo top comment people.... why can't they just put ads on the side of the page instead? I remember the good old days when I could watch some panda sneezing without watching an ad longer than the video... not to mention it needs to buffer? rediculous

[makeasound64]

Why are the top comments about the ads on vevo?

WHO CARES

I mean HELLO BRAND NEW IS PLAYING JESUS CHRIST LIVE.

This is beautiful.

[MUFFINfiasco]

I Love this!

[mrmojoriseing34]

When I first heard this song I was facing criminal charges and looking to go to prison. My wife was in rehab and child protective services had taken my children. It was a very dark time in my life and when he said, "if they dont put me away, it will be a miracle", he had wrote this song for me. All I could think about was seeing my children threw plexiglass. Im just gonna say I got on my knees and balled like a baby that night. From time to time I like to play it to remind me of where Ive been

[meganelectric]

@mrmojoriseing34 That's pretty real, man. This song has a lot of personal meaning for me, too. It must just be THAT good.

[Parrallel2005]

Wow, this sounds pretty terrible.

[77billet]

remember when this band sucked?...me neither

[U2DABEARS]

Great Song in any version

[seashellmel]

Freaking amazing song.

[TheSkaddict]

No love for the shaker guy in the shadows.

[IndieDrummer138]

Thats vin acardi he plays lead.

[Lumpyish]

does the one guitarist looks like frank (the bunny) from donnie darko or is it just me?

[DoctorArbitrary]

Jesus Christ, that's a pretty song.

[BIGjerm143]

this was great stoned.

[ruthjhinery]

i like the song better when its sad.

[sabishii]

If you don't like the sound of Kevin's voice or the sound of this version of the song in general, man, that's fine, but unless you're arguing that he's off-key or off-beat or something *objective*, that doesn't mean he sucks.

[forever182x]

why are the top comments licking vevos ass? what about the song huh?

[levimcduffie]

I tend to agree with both sides in this little fight. This is a cool change but kevin sounds terrible, but i like the cool folky country sound

[BrandNewMeets182]

Shutup about the adds, it's no big deal. -_- This song rocks. Jesse Lacey and Kevin Devine work well together.

[terminaldeity]

For everyone complaining about ads, just download adblockplus. I haven't seen an ad on youtube in two years.

[AlecFootball75]

Kevin Devine, you just made jesse lacey even more of a god haha. you both are amazing

[rachelx826215]

I love how much passion is put into this song. It gives me chills.

[herbdan]

kevin devine sucks

i saw brand new headline in atl back in '07 with manchester opening and kevin devine in between. first time ever hearing manchester in my life and it was indescribable how good both they and brand new were it was like if you had a sandwich made from bread straight from heaven and then in the middle shit paste. and to lateralus03, when we open our minds to the idea that shit is good or ok, thats when we really become robots. great music for a long surf video scene.

[Lateralus03]

Whenever I see people saying "this sucks" or "gtfo Kevin" I just smile and shake my head. It's unbelievable how much humans in general are afraid of change, or just something different. You wake up every morning, go to the same classes, work the same job, drive the same car, eat the same food, wear the same clothes. You're all sheep. Open your minds to something different, you fucking robots.

[stellar476]

god damn this blows. get the fuck out kevin

[ucbruin85]

Brand New=Epic



[TheBrittanyMonster11]

wow, this sucks terribly. This SO is not the same amazing song that I listen to every night on my iPod...

[GBGOfficial]

omfg i love kevin devine<3

[thebomb1217]

A little too upbeat. The original is better

[casey83175]

Youtube is own by Google, I doubt Google has trouble paying for Youtube, seeing how before Google Youtube had no ads. I just don't understand why adds were randomly needed

[LuxorVan]

Vevo is in my friends list, I am God Jesus Christ! Or Eloi!

[breathnac92]

its a nice acoustic but this song is dark and frustrated at heart and this version does not deliver as much emotion as the original at all

[sydneybelle93]

@breathnac92 i was totally just thinking that. 

[rebelfpf59]

how ironic the opening ad is for taking back sunday

[SushiFuuko]

Well Jesus Christ, I'm alone again.

[coluvsguitar]

at first glance the guy on shaker looks almost like Ben Wyatt from parks and recreation

[MrCodycasalini]

thumbs up if the drummer looks like landon donovan

[JeremysRants]

This versions sucks... slow the damn tempo....

[pranadheer100]

yo man this is a beautiful

[TheLumberjackHero]

Y'know, Vevo is probably helping keep most of the music we like on Youtube. And Vevo also plays host to keeping uncensored music in an easy to find place. They may be corporate douche bags, but they are douche bags that are keeping Youtube free (for the time being) and they provide a safe haven against moral fascism.

In short, the 10 second commercials really aren't that bad.

[dim2dark]

@TheLumberjackHero In short, you could always use Firefox.

[justqwerty12]

Absolutely mindblowing. I actually picked up pieces of my brain off the floor.

[tipsyames]

if you listen to it like 10 times you'll start to love this verison

[TheNirvana55]

Good version but I prefer a original version ( sorry for my english xD )

[CaraOh]

I definately prefer the original...

Kevin's making it sound more country, and it's just wrong. It doesn't sound good, and, his voice doesn't suit the song.

The original's better by far.

[11foofighters]

@CaraOh your stupid

[sean1256]

While I appreciate what Kevin is doing with this interpretation, it pales in comparison to the original.

[AwaySmiles]

This song has gotten me through so much of my life.

[kelseyyorks]

I love the original version just as much as you all do. But I think this version is really awesome too, it's interesting. It gives it somewhat of a "happy" feel, without really being upbeat.

[sociallyineffective]

yeah ruined it

[theddrumdrummer6669]

Ruined it =/

[earsnotsam92]

I like the original album version better. :/

[Austin9599945]

@diamondcrashh

Brand News religious references arent Pro religion if anything they are neutral.

Your comment holds no merit sorry

[calebkid75]

@Austin9599945 You're very right. His comment doesn't even make sense.

[JENKINSKADE]

@Austin9599945 I get the feeling they are not 100% neutral anymore. From the lyrics that I hear it sounds like they are changing To me the lyrics of this song sound like he is talking to Jesus about how he has messed up and does feel worthy. But they again that is just my interpretation.

[LvAzure]

why the hell does this only have a little over 100,000 views?? literally MILLIONS upon MILLIONS of people are missing out on this absolute gem of an eargasm.

[radddrummer]

this is great with KD

[gibson125t]

i like it when they do this, play it in a different mannor. my old favorites in a new way.

[stewardo]

This is not what I was looking for.

[Junglebong22]

geniousenesses!! check out my version of this if you like this live style brand new sound haha please!!!!!!!!

[PhillyBluntsDoItRite]

although the original was far superior, this is a very nice arrangement. kudos.

[ChablesMan]

I wish Brand New had more "official" live videos from their last couple albums.

[quartercherries]

I like this direction, but I still am irritated by the lead's voice.

[skinnyguinea1234]

so amazing

[kjewell99]

so yeah like the original version of this song better

[whitestwidow]

i really don't like how this version lost all the aggression of the original..but the beat adds this kewl dance-rock type of element.

[KWPajak]

I need to have a conversation with these men before I die.

[superstriker00]

If Andy Hull had been in this, it would have three of the world's best lyricists, but even just 2 is mind blowing.

[Ibuymyowntshirts]

@superstriker00 you are forgetting Morrissey

[superstriker00]

@Ibuymyowntshirts Haven't heard of him/them/her, but I'll look it up.

[Ibuymyowntshirts]

@superstriker00 WHAT? ARE YOU SERIOUS?!!!  Brand NEW GREW UP LISTENING TO HIM!!

[quartercherries]

@Ibuymyowntshirts alternative country is always a good choice, apparently.

[megannppants]

god, i love advertisements. so much better than the MUSIC i came here to listen to.

[tipsyames]

i dont mind vevo at all, used to have to serch for high quality videos, now i get them easily after like 3 seconds

[ganon391]

Do people not have adblock? You don't have to sit through ads with that

[Sdozeman]

Guys, YouTube is a free service, and in order to remain free, they need some sort of revenue to maintain the site. I'll happily sit through a 10-20 sec ad as long as I get to watch the vids for free.

[Sup3rBe]

I love it when Jesse & Kevin perform together!

[failurebydesign490]

kevin devine ruined this song? youre crazy, nothing kevin does ruins anything, get your heads outta your asses, and realize that this song is the shit.

[weirdemoperson]

the band members are assholes but i like this song :)

[jonnykid555]

@weirdemoperson may I ask why they are assholes?

[weirdemoperson]

@jonnykid555 well my friend had a baby with there cousin and they went to his house and kicked his ass

[jonnykid555]

@weirdemoperson why the fuck did they do that?! if that's true then you're right

[jesusramones1]

i want this version of the song

[beastlyman911]

Vinnie and Jesse sound better together, but still amazing. Especially the intro

[amek661]

best song ecer((((:

[Draxbonai]

WTF is this? I'm so narrow-minded that I can't appreciate alternate styles of music!

[MusicMakesPeace27]

I vote Kevin ruined the song. But Brand New is by far my favorite band of all time and this is my second favorite song by them! Following a close second to "The Quiet Things that No One Ever Knows"

I just really like Vinnie's voice and how him and Jesse fit each other so well.

[youfailme10]

As if brand new are not a million times better band since they stop playing pop punk poo they did before. Playing honest no agenda/no fringe music now :D YAY for brand new.

[sergiuromanu]

Very bad for him

[walshyboy1988]

I'm loving this song, dunno why people can't hack a bit of originality, and diversity. i like both songs...nice to hear something a bit mixed up

[seriffaviator]

while this is, obviously, different, and very good in its own right, it lacks the somber passion of the original, and it doesn't evoke an emotional response to the same degree as a result

[Swingfinger]

are you people kidding me? this version is very very good.

[WestonandTheChodes]

@Swingfinger If you're into like folk/country style. This just isn't Brand New.

[WestonandTheChodes]

I'm going to go throw up, take a shower, brush my teeth, and never speak of this again.

[Brian12327]

@WestonandTheChodes what?

[WestonandTheChodes]

@Brian12327 This version is that bad. Usually, if Jesse Lacey is involved, I love it. So for me not to, it's bad.

[JonnoThomas]

eh... original is better.

[theedwardcunningham]

so I have to say that the First time I watched this I thought that this was awful. But after listening to Kevin more. I've come to realise this is actually VERY VERY VERY GOOD

[MrLongSofty]

@theedwardcunningham same

[aletsthegreat]

I think Kevin ruined this song.

[plasticseagulls]

Jesus Christ?

[Puttz93]

ALL ROCK AND NIRVANA FANS, FEBRUARY 20TH IS KURT COBAIN'S BIRTHDAY. THAT DAY WE WILL ALL VISIT THE "SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT" VIDEO, LIKE IT, AND WISH HIM A HAPPY BIRTHDAY. NOT ONLY WILL IT PAY BACK RESPECT TO HIM, IT WILL ALSO HELP NIRVANA GET TO THE TOP OF YOUTUBE AGAIN. THUMBS UP THIS COMMENT AND REPOST THIS ON ANY NIRVANA OR ANY ROCK VIDEO.

[Dhaneshification]

country sounding shit

[tgodfrey3]

@Dhaneshification this is 100% not country. I hate country. And just to reiterate, this is not country. even a little. If anything its folk, and folk rock is the future of music.

[xconfettie]

i like this version. its interesting.

[somesaybill]

Dear Vevo;

Let me start by sayin get your corporate asses off youtube! Since these big companies started paying off youtube so they could post their friggin videos we can't post ours. We are flagged for infringement evry time we include a song we like in our videos.

This is YOUtube, the place where we can post OUR videos. If we wanted to listen to music from you we'd go to your damn website.

To people who want greedy corporates gone thumbs up and copy and paste this on Vevo shit.

[thenick0176]

@somesaybill the only thing about that is that if there was no vevo then studio people wouldnt have put this amasing video on because its a studio version not just live or something

[Nypimp365]

@somesaybill agreed I am going to copy paste this

[bonghaven]

@somesaybill hell yea

[hairy1992broski]

@somesaybill You DO realize that YouTube is a corporation right?, and that regardless of Vevo or any other video hosting engine, using another artists music is still copyright infringement. always has been. YouTube just didn't get shit for users posting videos of copyrighted music much until now. Not because of Vevo or any other company, but because of the artists publishing companies. There starting to crack down on internet streaming. I agree it's bullshit. place the blame in the right place.

[SamGus01]

@somesaybill Dear Somesaybill,

How much money a month do you pay to keep youtube up and running? None? So you should be happy that companies like this keep this site up so you can bitch about them stopping you from stealing their product to use as your own. Greedy can also be a term used to describe someone who wants to take someone elses hard work and profit from it in any way shape or form, you sound kind of stupid calling this company greedy when you are asking them to leave to benefit you.

[johnmorisi8]

@somesaybill

You should be thankful we have vevo here on youtube. Youtube went through lawsuits and we lost all the great videos we love. Now we can still search for them on youtube and we get brought to vevo. I don't see what your problem is. Plus, we don't want to see your stupid videos with music behind a picture/slideshow or whatever. When we search were looking for stuff like this. Even when you use music behind a video, you can still keep the video up, you just get a little ad. Big deal.

[StarvingSound]

@somesaybill

Well, technically they aren't YOUR videos if they aren't YOURS. Well, actually that factually not even technically.

[starwarsnerd66]

@somesaybill dude calm down

[jacman227]

@somesaybill You do realize that without ads live Vevo, Youtube would cost money to have a membership. Not that I enjoy watching an ad, but I would rather wait an extra 15 seconds than pay money every month just to watch youtube

[NTdakotaNT]

@jacman227 actually youtube went quite some time without vevo and did great, and i'm fine with the ad in the corner like they used to have

[Skullz930]

@jacman227, Thank you, I'm so glad that not everyone is an idiot.

[JoshuaPaulMusic]

@jacman227 You do realize that YouTube was free before Vevo showed up? I mean, I get your point but, Vevo's just annoying. They have enough companies paying for this site through ads. Vevo just kills it..

[srcarpen11]

@jacman227 yeah but it would be better if those ads were independent of controlling YouTube so much. YouTube should have advertisers to pay for the site maintenance and staff etc. Content is suppose to be you(tube).

[watuchie]

@jacman227

Oh hey, you have a brain... And think for yourself! :D

[nr2237]

@somesaybill although i must agree, your comment is an insult to this channel which without we wouldnt have this amasing version of Jesus

@nr2237 not really, considering the video was originally posted on brand new's
