  • At 1:00 it's "One by land, two by sea"

  • get better quality

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar Because we live in a day and age of cowards. People, especially young people, don't want to face the fact that there are problems in the world that are their responsibility. They just want to imerse themselves in a fantasy world where nothing bad ever happens, and all you have to do is party and fall in love with a high school sweetheart.

  • @star3catcherSEQUEL Not true, its more that the adults or people of authority dont want to accept the reality of the serious things that are affecting the youth of today. So many young kids commit suicide because of non-observant people, or adults who just dont care. High school is not all about partying or falling in love, there is so much other stuff that occurs there, the extent of harrasment and bullying is mind blowing. Not just because of issuse like, being gay, but just being different.

  • It's actually "One by land, Two by sea" at 1:04

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar It's only "popular" because so many people go on it to troll....

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar Because sometime people like to listen to more upbeat songs. Don't get me wrong, I hate most of today's music, but if I'm driving in my car with the top down, I don't want to listen to deep songs. I want something more upbeat.

  • I <3 THIS SONG!!!!!!!

  • @TheBlackveilbrides98 Actually, it's about how the majority of Americans stood by and did nothing to help New Orleans and were content with telling themselves that someone would eventually help them. I suppose you could say it's about god if you interpret it that way. The shorelines bit is the roof of her house, and I already explained the help is on the way bit. Watch the video. Once again, I could see how you could get that, but only if you interpreted it that way.

  • YOU MESSED UP ITS

    "One BY Land Two By sea"

    NOT

    "One land Two by sea"...

    no offence im just helping you out on that

  • for some reason I think it says " one by land, to by sea" even though it says in the video ? hold my hand, to help see". does anyone else think it says that?

  • @Mac4345 it does

  • Black gold = oil. What a metaphor.

  • @TheSK00T3R Thats not a metaphor....

  • @TheSK00T3R its an analogy

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar dude its popular because everyone HATES it if i am not mistaken it has more dislikes than likes.

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar "Herp Derp, Wha wha, the music industry has gone to hell". Every youtube song I listen to has someone bitching about Rebecca Black or Justin Bieber.

    Good song, probably one of my favorite from Rise Against :D

  • It's truly amazing how powerful lyrics can be. "Choking on the black gold upon which we rely, we keep axes in the attics to see cameras in the sky."

  • Comment removed

  • 20 dislikers didnt get help. what they do need is mental help

  • :/ i love this song I WANT MY GOAWD DAMN SPEAKERS DAMIT!

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar whichever seat had the electirc chair option would be nice.

  • AWESOME SONG!!! ^o^ GO RISE AGAINST!!! EVEN KIRBY IS HAPPY YAY FOR KIRBY!!!

  • I saw them in concert April 7, or 13, this year and they rocked!

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar Because most people listen to senseless rap, that only talks about small problems, while ignoring the big ones.

  • good song but messed up lyrics its "the pyre is burning the cypress has died"

  • AWSOME SONG

  • MAJOR difference from 360p to 1080p

  • Reading about how this song is about Katrina and The Oil Rig explosion BLEW MY FREAKING MIND! I always loved Rise Against and now that you guy's pointed about what this song means makes me love them that much more.

  • hey its sarah i love these guys.thanx nickky!!xD

  • ok the chourus is one by land two by sea

  • you call this hd? -_____________-

  • @XxXtoxicrainbowXxX7 maybe you try 1080p?

  • @XxXtoxicrainbowXxX7 if it goes to 1080 then its HD.

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar yeah but black's song only got popular because it was sooooooo incredibly retarded

  • I hate how when I have a discussion about music with some people, they sit there and trash music like this and call it nothing but "trash" and "a waste of time" when they don't even understand or comprehend that this is about real problems that our society is facing.

  • Is it just me or are the letters moving?

  • @22sjl It's an optical illusion created by the type of text. Focus on one letter and you'll see it.

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar Because mainstream population is stupid

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar because without stupid we would have nothing to bounce better meaning off of.

  • 19 people are adopted

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar I love how people think listening to Rise Against makes them 'deep'.

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar

    I wouldn't call rebecca black popular... I'd say infamous.

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar Most of the people listening to music listen to mainstream techno and stuff like that. That's they're style, lets leave them alone.

  • off pitch

  • One by land, Two by sea is a reference to the U.S. Independence if Paul revere saw 1 lamp in the church steeple he would warn with the British are coming by land "one by land" if he saw two land lanterns which he did he warned with British are coming by sea "two by sea" one by land two by sea

  • @phantomguy700

    Though it wasn't exactly like that (Paul wasn't even the messenger--prison apparently...), but it makes for some awesome lore in pop-culture references :)

  • @phantomguy700 No taxation without representation!

  • why would we need to watch this in HD?!OMGZ

  • @ourbloodykisses it doesnt make any diffrence look wise but it actually does change it audio wise making it better with each, 1080 being best

  • Good job on the lyrics, timing, font, white backing...Thanks for uploading this...as I call it...Rolling lyric

  • every time i here this song i see eyes opening and then a girl who walks into a water fall on a cliff when she steps under it it turns to blood and starts tossing it onto the town below creating destruction, and theirs a man who has to escape a cage and when he does he runs thru a jungal on the cliff and when he gets to her he steps in the water fall and it turns clear again he then shows her how to take it and fix what shes done with the blood and evil possessing her

    i love this song to death

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar ya but no one likes her so ya infamous lol...but so true these songs are amazing and serious

  • first thing i thought of when i heard this was : an epic last stand in a war game - the first evac team or "help" was unsuccessful to get to you... and then as you and your men around start going down. you watch the sky and your marines alike, and as your vision starts going blurry and your almost dead, the second evac team epicly flanks and comes in to save you. (what? we all have different views! thats how I saw it!) ...

  • Thumbs up if you were thinking of WWE Over The Limit PPV while u were listening to this

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar Wait.. Is it Rebecca Black popular?

  • @MarcelGotHitByACar Because maybe sometimes I want to get away from seriousness...

  • This has nothing to do with the song at all, but the first 22 seconds of the song would be a great intro to like, espn, or the news or something...

  • fucking epic

  • Rise Against...Wins.

  • For the longest time I thought they lyrics were "They simply said" instead of "They Said, They Said."

  • @Hartford1992 kinda sounds like it

  • 1st verse is about katrina

    2nd is about the oil spill!!

  • @ejim27 Uhh the oil spill was so long ago like nobody cares now xD

  • @redeyedemon39 and no one cares about you sir. so....... suck it

  • @redeyedemon39

    tell that to the people who died.

  • @ME1517 Well, i think he meant the song. it is an awesome song, but it is sad about all the people who died.

  • @ejim27 Actually, when it says, 1 by land, 2 by sea, it's referring to how Paul Revere and William Dawes lit the lanterns to notify the people of Concord and Lexington how the British were coming. If they came by land, 1 lantern would be lit, and if they came by sea, 2 lanterns would be lit.

  • @ejim27 To support that,

    "The crescent city sleeps."

    The crescent city is a common nickname for New Orleans.

    "The bayou is burning"

    A bayou is a river or small swampy lake found in very low lands, and New Orleans is below sea level.

    The rig had drilled 5000 feet and planned on drilling 18000 overall when it burst.

    Black smoke filled the air.

    Eleven people employed by BP went missing during the oil rig explosion.

    The next two lines describes what it would be like to die in that explosion

  • @ejim27 I lived through Katrina...... u.u My cat died, our house was destroyed, we lost of my baby pictures, and everything was gone.

  • @ejim27 I never knew that dude. Thumbs up!

  • FEMA hates this song

  • @bluto780

  • all the cities that irene hurricane hit need help.

  • @TheCtc0520 Its about the BP oil spill. It is sad how that spill is even now affecting our lives.

  • @MeleeMaster64 Thanks

  • Why is youtube keeping track of how many times i listened to this song above that green bar?

  • 18 people watched this video and didn't like it.... cpt.obvious at your service

  • @XxDjDucKyxX ladies youre both pretty! calm down

  • boobs

  • @XxDjDucKyxX But you didn't have to ASK, you will get them either way. Asking makes you look like an attention whore, sorry if it pisses you off.

  • @BrBoomr ladies youre both pretty! calm down

  • @yobsuarts Nice lol

  • HELP IS ON THE WAYYY :D

  • @XxDjDucKyxX You didn't have to ask for thumbs up you attention seeker.

  • Really like that bg picture. what is it called?

  • I think "11 mothers cry" might be "11 martyrs die/cry". 11 people died in the BP Oil Rig explosion, so it sort of makes sense.

  • @onelastorphan Its on about if 11 mothers cry then 11 people died, yes the songs is on about a explosion underground, cant remember lyrics to prove it, but help is on the way, but it didnt arrive means that they were left to die (Obviously) hope that cleared it up =P

  • I heard this song on 93X today I'm glad I'm good a guessing song titles

  • i like their music i dont like what they stand for there to environmentalist and save the frickin animals i mean common its been proven scientifically that hunting actually helps the frickin animal population but anywho awsome tune!

  • @33zombieman I would say more humanitarian, if anything. But I agree, this music is awesome! ^-^

  • @arezoujoon i was there! it was my first concert i thought they sounded great. they played with muse and rage against the machine:)

  • X-Games?

  • @dakiller234 why would i have to explain that to some random person on youtube?lol

  • sounds like pretty handsome awkward at the beginning :)

  • What album is this from?

  • @Alexr197 endgame the most amazing album in the ENTIRE world (: followed by every other one made by Rise Against

  • @LithuanianMonkey Ahh thank you!

  • As someone from Louisiana, it's amazing to me that someone who wasn't even personally effected by Katrina or the BP oil spill wanted to make a song to remind everyone of how bad the government royally fucked up with both disasters.

  • @askingxalice have you seen the music video, the song is about both disasters but mainly the oil spill and the vid is about katrina? to even it out i guess?

  • @askingxalice I thought they might of been from here(New Orleans) but they are from Chicago so yeah its pretty amazing they made this song..

  • i love these guys.....breaking ben. & 3 dayz grace are good too through

  • whoa deja vu, oh wait, no i just listen to this song everyday

  • I hope my neighbors like this song

    

  • awesome song, good vid, but why in the world would someone want to watch lyrics in HD?

  • dud nice video i already know the song but sount quality is like badbecause i have heard this song much more better on same PC
