Rise Against - Blood-Red, White, and Blue

[TheMarcinian]

Amerykanie -.-

[IamAmazinghehe]

oh and btw how can innocents attack you ..arent they innocent ??? think of what u say .....and theres no excuse for killing ppl...

[IamAmazinghehe]

@MrTruegoon23 god wouldnt bless u either...cuz he said if someone is hitting you cheek offer him the other cheek too or something like that...but doesnt matter cuz i dont have a religion and bt im neutral in this discussion

[477DantheMan]

Rise against is THE SHIT. they give me inspiration, the give me hope, and most of all they give me great music. They are the only band in which i like EVERY SINGLE SONG they have ever made. In that case they are the greatest band, in my opinion.

[ReDwAtErZ231]

4 people dont know what good music is

thumbs up if you agree

[scrumpyJ5]

The Most Rise Against-y Song Rise Against Have Ever Written. Definitely their best chorus.

[nexavir]

anyone the begging on guitar its not on ultimate guitar tabs

[GeneralPayne1]

To all the people saying RA is too "mainstream," what's wrong with that? Wouldn't it be better for them to be more mainstream in order to get their message to more people? Isn't that the point of their music?

[TheKei42]

This is a free country? A country where we are supposed to have the right to alter or abolish a corrupt government? A country where a state is supposed to have the right to hold a well regulated militia, when a citizen isn't normally allowed to possess an automatic weapon? A country in which the people are tricked into thinking they control their government? Is that freedom? Is this what you want to be? A puppet, emptying your pockets into the hands of business and politics? Are you really free?

[Jisdlol]

Rise Against is my drug. I dont need nothing more.....

[bionicleking123433]

why does song remind me of Dune: the Bulterian Jihad? anyone else read and/or reading that book?

[bling552]

would god bless the murder of the innocent?

would god bless the distruction of the sytem?

would god bless america? i think we all know whats the answer to that.

[MrTruegoon23]

@bling552 Would god bless you of course not your just a asshole. We don't kill innocents on purpose you sick fuck they attacked us we fought back you ass

[bling552]

@MrTruegoon23 you stuped american dumbass, i am an american and i think our military is shit. you know why? joarge bush or whatevr hes name is started the war in iraq to steal petrol the people in iraq is fighting back becuz our milatRY IS KILLING IRAQS PEOPLE SO YOUR TELLING ME THAT THE INNOCENT IRAQ PEOPLE DONT HV THE RIGHT TO DEFEND THEMSELVES?! havnt u noticed every war america had everyone is always on its side? its brainwash by tv music like eminem movies and much.

[13timmeh]

@bling552 work on your spelling and grammar

[bling552]

@13timmeh sorry i tyoe fast T.T

[bling552]

@13timmeh type*

[CDceilingcat]

@bling552 There is no way in hell you are American and speak English that way. If you are you are a disgrace to this country. I for one don't agree with all the things this country does, but for you to proclaim the US military is "shit" is an uneducated statement. Please do some research on the US military then get back to me. In a private message, I don't want to argue on a Video on youtube. If you have a problem with me calling you out message me privately so we can discuss this.

[bling552]

@CDceilingcat i am an american, and when it comes to strengh the us milatry is very good but when i saw many videos of soldiers that come from america to iraq and kill people and steal oil just makes me sick, infact i feel sorry for iraq cuase not only america steals oil but it also says that theyr helping iraq and that all arabs are terrorists wich is very retarded, and some muslims sacrificed themself to help iraq (osama binladin) and america lies and says hes a terrorist, its evil vs good

[rocker22496]

you guys want to know what main stream is...... Lady Gaga is mainstream, fucking Justin Bieber is mainstream, Lil' Wayne is mainstream..... Rise Against A.K.A one of the best bands in the world if not the best is far from mainstream.

[XxZJ21Xx]

Fucking idiots... you guys are very wrong I have a couple of problems:

Rise Against is Melodic Hardcore. NOT ENTIRELY PUNK. Just a small mix.

Rise Against is NOT MAINSTREAM not enough people like it to be mainstream.

If you don't know what mainstream is, don't accuse something of being mainstream..

[EstIstZeit]

"GOD BLESS AMERIKA!!!"

[scrumpyJ5]

'So Pride Yourselves On What You Are! And Hold Them All On Words They Can't Take Back!' - when you find a dick, if they go wrong, contradict them and then punch them in the FUCKING FACE! fuck you Laura! one of the best choruses ever.

[rickerd44]

Old Rise Against>New crap! New shit is to main steam and even tho its good music its not what Rise Against is all about. Its no longer punk......

[TheExploitedNirvana]

@rickerd44 I'd say it's still a form of punk. but it's still true to what they are. Rise Against is about the message and their songs in Endgame and ATR still have meaning they're trying to get more fans to spread the message.

[rocker22496]

@TheExploitedNirvana thank you for saying that because I try to explain to people all the time that think that because Rise Against has changed that they are sell outs, but what people don't understand is that creating a wider fan base and selling out are two entirely different things. The only thing that has changed is their sound, which I personally still love, but their message is still the same and maybe even stronger then before.

[TheKei42]

@rickerd44 Too mainstream? Why do you even care if it's mainstream? If the reason you liked RA had something to do with how mainstream they are, then you really can't be labeled as a fan, at any point in time. RA is singing to tell you that it's the people who can make a change. It's not about achieving a perfect society, but we can do better than this. At the same time, things shouldn't be about saying "I listen to music few people know, so I'm clearly better 'cause I don't follow the crowd....

[Thatswhatshesaid446]

@rickerd44 Kindly take your hipster ass to a less "mainstream" band then, and then get butthurt when that band actually gets recognition for their talents.

[DiosHorus]

If I listen to this song in the gym, my heart beat goes up by 30 bpm

[SWMINIS]

I'm from canada and I saw them in show recently. I like rise against simply because they spread the message that too many people choses to ignore, wich is pretty lame. C'mon people get involved in your fucking politics!

[LucasBcody1]

We need to spread the message of songs like this to change the world, anyone can make a difference, LET RISE AGAINST"S MESSAGE BE KNOWN!!!!

[slavemachines]

i wish rise against would go back to politics!

[scrumpyJ5]

@slavemachines they have.

[TheMrHeavens]

the best lyrics in the world!!

[Sakeeya27]

My favorite part: 0:00 up until 3:40.

[aSk8Song]

@Sakeeya27 yeah man 3:40 sucks ass

[MrEgofreak]

People, I think there's an easy to settle the multiple religious arguments going here. This is the "the land of the free..." A.K.A. this is a country where people have the freedom to express whatever they choose to. Not a country where people are ready to start an internet war because somebody's beliefs differ from their own. Do I believe in God? Yes, I do and I'm proud to have the freedom to proclaim so!

[ThePhilliesphan26]

@MrEgofreak i dont understand why people argue over that stuff just let people live their lives and think what they want but watch some one will attack you for saying that

[ElLapiz24]

@MrEgofreak Internet =/= The united states though. Not everyone who reads your comment lives in a "free country"

[rillera25]

@ElLapiz24 Most terms of service of the internet are to be tolerant though. And if you don't live in a free country, there's probably the chance that you're not going to be able to access YouTube (or the internet) in the first place.

[blazingfuryoffire1]

@MrEgofreak maybe we should spread the this comment on the web to help a movement grow, showing the power the internet has when we work together.

[MrEgofreak]

@blazingfuryoffire1 Excellent suggestion dude. I doubt it will work though. Even though it is a good message, eventually people'll say "Geez stop spamming trolls" or other crap like that. And, like another user who replied to me said, we live in North America and have freedom of speech, but not everybody has that luxury.

[blazingfuryoffire1]

@MrEgofreak The world is overthrowing many leaders, so it might. who knows what the world will do next unless you try

[MrEgofreak]

@blazingfuryoffire1 Maybe. You're welcome to copy it if you like. :)

[Mechfan666]

@MrEgofreak well said, bro. im agnostic, but it is amazing we are allowed to express our religious beliefs openly, fearing only trolls.

[ChimeraSynth]

@MrEgofreak I am athiest and strongly support this statement.

[RoboSquiMonk]

wow..i looked for this song everywhere. I heard on an amv once.

Wow, just wow. thanks for uploading!

[DarkconspiracyPS3]

the best album by rise against.

[AlmostaFlipinSkater]

@DarkconspiracyPS3

agreed 100%

[Sakeeya27]

It's my favorite part up until 3:40.

[DarkconspiracyPS3]

at 3:03 when it drops back in. so amazing. whole song so amazing :D

[sirdamian02]

Intro kind of sounds like Holy Diver.

[scrumpyJ5]

I think this song has the best chorus ever. Not just the punk world, in any musical world. Lyrically and sonically, it just kicks TOO much arse. It makes you wannt stand up for yourself or any oppressed person and kick their oppressor in the fucking face. If there is ever an American revolt, like that of Libya or Egypt, then let's hope that this and (obviously) Killing in the Name are on the soundtrack.

[LivingRookie]

best song on the album

[MrWolffire7]

just wondering is rise against pro or anti American

[SouthernWreckageProd]

@MrWolffire7 I think Zach Blair (their current guitarist) said it best in their documentary "Another Station Another Mile":

We love our country, we just don't agree with many of its choices.

[deadpoulet]

happy 4th of july! Not!

[xjetradiofuturebox]

God bless Rise Against

[AlmostaFlipinSkater]

@xjetradiofuturebox

god doesn't exist, and Rise Against agrees with my statement

[WillCrearyRA]

@AlmostaFlipinSkater theyre agnostic, not atheist. learn the difference.

[AlmostaFlipinSkater]

@WillCrearyRA

lol! i do know the difference. i was agnostic before, i do know the difference.

[xjetradiofuturebox]

@AlmostaFlipinSkater ...it's a take on the last few lines of this song. who knows? maybe one does exist. sitting back as we tear each other apart.

[squirrelwhisperer87]

It's funny how stupid people can be on here, arguing over damn music.

[theDjh101]

Been my favorite band since '04. Which is ironic because I stopped listening to most punk rock in '07ish. 8)

[thecrazy1231000]

i like how the song starts with the giant fucking mosh pit moment

[jj1140]

anti american = someone who doesnt like how america is, not how it is supposed to be. we dont live in the america our fonders had made and set.

[Snoglewits]

Gos bless America, and God bless the men and wemon who have fought and died for your right to write and publish sick songs like these. You don't deserve to live in America if you're going to sing anti-American songs. Go to Germany or something, where maybe you can sing about how bad America is THERE. Maybe it'll be better there, but I doubt you'll find somewhere better than the land of the free. I used to like their music. Fuck you, Rise Against.

[paranormal17]

@Snoglewits You know, your comment is actually comically ironic. You're proclaiming America as a great country while simultaneously dishonoring it by breaking a cardinal foundation of the country. Free speech. The reason why America is great is because intelligent, thoughtful men and women like RA speak up on its wrongs and other Americans listen to them, follow them, and collectively make America better. Sick of people saying bad things about the country? Go back to china.

[DeathafterDecay7]

@Snoglewits he really got you there

[XxRyan41xX]

@Snoglewits Why the hell would they be anti-America? They're all from America, idiot.

[00Powell]

@XxRyan41xX he's wrong but you need to look up the definition of anti-american, you the one who sounds like a complete idiot, (he does too) but his is based on complete ignorance and his logic is just stupid, you need to know what words mean before you comment on them.

[XxRyan41xX]

@00Powell Since you obviously think you're the smartest person on YouTube, would you please tell us what "anti-America" truly means? Because I was always told that it meant "being against America." Am I an idiot for saying what I was taught? I don't think so, and I'm sorry if I made a mistake, and that I'm not perfect like you.

[00Powell]

@XxRyan41xX No, thats right. I just didnt think you knew what it meant because your justification on why they arent anti-american doesnt make sense, so i assumed you thought it meant something else.

[XxRyan41xX]

@00Powell I don't understand how what I originally said doesn't make sense, because I basically said "why would Rise Against be against America if they were all born in America." It makes perfect sense to say that they're not against the country they were all born in.

[00Powell]

@XxRyan41xX just because your born in a country doesnt mean you have to like it or agree with it, you can still be against it, it doesnt make any sense to say just because they were born there that they're not anti-american, its completely irrelevant.(i dont think RA is anti-american, they're actually quite the opposite)

[AlmostaFlipinSkater]

@XxRyan41xX

that's a weak argument. they're anti-corruption, anti-fascist, anti-racist, anti-sexist, and more importantly ANTI-NATIONALISM

[MagiculMexican]

@AlmostaFlipinSkater YES. Perfect argument ender.

[MegaCooley47]

@AlmostaFlipinSkater

If you haven't realized this yet, Liberals use their unofficial title of being unbiased to be extremely biased.

[TheVeggieMonstah]

@Snoglewits its unbelievable how ignorant you are.

[eugeserres297]

epic!

[eugeserres297]

epic!

[IncredibleBMX]

@IncredibleBMX

I love how people are still sending me messages. <3

[withoutidol]

Would God bless a murder of the innocents?

Would God bless a war based on pride?

Would God bless a money-hungry government? No

Would God bless our ineffective court system?

God bless the sweatshops we run.

God bless America?

God bless America? No

[TheMrHeavens]

Rise Against's the best lyrics and music!

[ilikenofx22]

Sage Francis, Atmosphere, and Immortal Technique among others are proof that not all rap is crap. If you like Rise Against because they actually say something with their music and not just because it's super cool to hardcore dance, you'd appreciate those guys too. It's still a funny candy joke anyway, so get a sense of humor all you angry clowns. Rise Against this Thursday with Bad Religion and THE DESCENDENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!! (lineup should be reversed but oh well...still gonna fucking rock)

[Y00tube1]

I have the headphones on the cover. :DDDDD

[1games11]

2:38 - 3:04 My Favorite part because it's SO true.

[TaKKun1123]

@1games11 0:00 - 3:40 My favorite part because it's SO true.

[paranormal17]

@TaKKun1123 That comment is getting SO old now.

[MILTONKAPLANIDIS]

@1games11 it is man that is what i look forward to in this song, and i like how r.a stands against the u.s gov't like that

[blubberlena123]

sometimes i wanna eat music

[ghostrider655]

Whoops, Pressed the dislike button on accident... someone shoot me.

[ChannelTheBadass]

@ghostrider655 YOUUUU...

[MyFadedEssence]

THIS is freaking revolution and Armegeddon :D

At least one band gets the point of music .. They play what they believe, instead of songs about love and sex as most music does today...

[FadedTheFallenSpirit]

@MyFadedEssence Cool user name....

[mikeiej]

this song reminds me of the circle pit last year :P

[dookiebrainer]

if there was really a grenade MP3 player...

[MyFadedEssence]

@dookiebrainer I wanna thumbs up that over and over.. xD

[SRADracer]

13 maart 013 :D :D :D

[TheQuoT]

The Drummer *_*

[nielstheman]

a song about holland, how sweet is that !

[Nick6am]

@nielstheman

haha,zou wel leuk zijn he.. maar, ik denk dat ze het niet positief bedoelen..

Gaat over De corruptie in amerika.. (ook in nederland by the way :O)

[nielstheman]

@Nick6am Dat begrijp ik :P Het is ook het hele idee achter de band, en achter de meeste nummers; tegen de huidige manier van regeren en leven

[BorisVanMeurs]

I like this, we can't blame all the soldiers, but we most certainly can blame those who've killed the innocents

[BloodGun191]

 niiiiiiiiiccccce

[IncredibleBMX]

@noplacetohideo you deserve a cookie. (;

[eddman76O]

wow, God has given these guys an awesome talent. every single song from Rise Against is amazing, not one is lame and they never get old!

[hiiamsocooldsnyhj]

@eddman76O ironic considering they're atheists.... but i totally agree

[KickAssChris007]

@hiiamsocooldsnyhj What the hell? who told you they were atheists??

[ddduuurrrppp]

@KickAssChris007 they porbally are they are smart people =P

[00Powell]

@eddman76O i fucking hate when people say god is responsible for everything good and bad, we are who we are and we make ourselves that way, not god.

[ddduuurrrppp]

@00Powell bro there ant no god if there was would he let us fuck the world over so much?

[timen1986]

@eddman76O

God didn't gave them shit. Hard work and luck is what gets you where they are. Fucking hell, what a load of hippy bullshit

[ChannelTheBadass]

@timen1986 Fuck you and your shit.

[Kneehouse100]

@timen1986 woah dude chill out. i think its a combination of both.

[Goinggonedead420]

@timen1986 You are right. To say god gave them talent is offensive. It is hard to give someone something when you are not real.

[Petriunderlinex3]

@eddman76O too bad god doesn't exist.

[BassAdams6661]

@Petriunderlinex3 There is always that one asshole...

[Petriunderlinex3]

@BassAdams6661 There is always the idiots why belevie in the Bibel.

Problem, christfag?

[BassAdams6661]

@Petriunderlinex3 There's always that one true idiot that can't spell and form a proper sentence.

[Petriunderlinex3]

@BassAdams6661 okey form a sentence in Germany or Swedish.

Btw when the opponent hates on your spelling you know you've won ;)

[NarutoFreak47]

@eddman76O Amen to that.

[fisk0411]

I'm so glad these guys aren't the new age 'punk' band. You know, the ones that resemble emo bands, yet defend not being emo because they don't only write songs about cutting themselves.

Rock the fuck on Rise Against.

[chubby987]

It's punk. No questions asked. And in every HMV i've ever been in it's listed under punk...

[Giftoftruth]

@beanyboy86 Whatever the heck it is, it is amazing lol. But Rise Against...metal....eh not really. I have several metal head friends. They absolutely depise Rise Against lol. Pretty much everything Rise Against plays is under the catagory of punk rock.

[beanyboy86]

people say its punk but its under the metal catorgary in the shops so i say its metal

[noplacetohideo]

@beanyboy86

its not metal, bet you was in like a hmv froma nother country and it looks like it says metal, they are punk check on itunes.

[arthas640]

lol 123 likes. 1-2-3

[IncredibleBMX]

The way i see it,

Music is like candy,

You have to throw away the rappers.

[Mushyrooms1]

@IncredibleBMX clever

[BFMVisMETAL11]

@IncredibleBMX Amen to that

[noplacetohideo]

@IncredibleBMX

Nice, i put this on my facebook and the reply was: "in this day and age we need to recycle" :/

[paranormal17]

@noplacetohideo Well, that's exactly what rappers do. Recycle old ideas and songs, put it under a different name and get rich.

[0rudy826]

@IncredibleBMX but i like rappers like eminem and drake =(

[Brakeman94]

@0rudy826 Eminem is awesome, mostly his new album but Rise Against is perfection.

[TheEric1203]

@Brakeman94 true that

[dookiebrainer]

@Brakeman94 fuck that, you got it all backwards. i actually like some rap, but really? eminems new album has made him a fuckin sell out, EVERYONE worships him now. his older stuff was the best. the eminem show, all that. listen to it all before you say his new shit is good. god that stuff is shit.

[Brakeman94]

@dookiebrainer I have heard his old stuff and honestly it has no meaning except that he loved drugs and sex.

[lskynyrd23]

@Brakeman94 WRONGSIR!

[Brakeman94]

@lskynyrd23 How about instead of answering with two words combined into one, you actually rack your brain to come up with something more intelligent and prove me wrong.

[lskynyrd23]

@Brakeman94 All the members are straight edge, ya know what that is dont you? refraining from using alcohol, tobacco, and recreational drugs. For some, this extends to not engaging in promiscuous sex. yeah that's a copy & paste but hey, proven wrong, good day sire

[Brakeman94]

@lskynyrd23 OK I want to clear this up for you and EVERYONE. I didnt mean that Rise Against's old stuff was only about drugs and sex, I was talking about Eminem lol.

[Knightslayer35]

@lskynyrd23 hey im straight edge!..... all the rednecks in my school arent though :D

[xXxidealess]

@Knightslayer35 what IS straight egde? lol im german i dont have to have a clue ;)

[tas383]

@xXxidealess no drugs or alcohol, and for younger people, no sex

[paudeline]

@lskynyrd23 Their drummer is not straight edge. Unlike the rest of the band, he knows how to live.

[ThePOW31]

@paudeline I'm prettty sure they all know how to "live" , maybe not the same way you do, but in the way they feel is right.

[XxmikethedrummerxX]

@Brakeman94 Well maybe it has hidden meanings that he may only understand. Maybe he had drug problems in his past hmm?

[Brakeman94]

@XxmikethedrummerxX That would be fine if he had just said that, but he didnt

[XxmikethedrummerxX]

@Brakeman94 I know him personally, thats just how he is don't mind it.

[BotchUpAndDie]

@IncredibleBMX

..or you could give the good ones a chance and not generalize an entire genre of music. :)

[SkatesonEcstasy]

@IncredibleBMX i dont think so. i mean i hate hiphop too an listen only to hardcore punk or metal. but there are some rappers really having talent and dont rap about how they kill all the other rappers and that they are the strongest. so you cant say all rappers are frucking bad shit.

[scourge7373]

@SkatesonEcstasy ya, i like linkin park's rapper in hands held high

[SkatesonEcstasy]

@scourge7373 yea such stuff i mean.

[Nodscouter]

@IncredibleBMX That's quite a stupid comment. A fun pun yes, but you really have no right to look down on people who happens to have different tastes in music than you.

[negatristan]

@IncredibleBMX The way I see it, there may be minds as great as those in rise against in rap music, and we shouldn't put down or judge people because their passion led them down a road different than the one we wanted them to go down. Rise against would want their fans to all-accepting.

[MrLeoo91]

@IncredibleBMX

Youre like a politician,

Dont know what you are talking about.

[jakmond2345]

@IncredibleBMX apart from the eminem's :)

[sb3k97]

@jakmond2345 oh oh oh thats awesome man that was great lolololol xD !!!

[ChannelTheBadass]

@IncredibleBMX XDXDXDXD THATS PURE AWESOME!

[smargh10151]

@IncredibleBMX herp derp

[rohiogerv22]

@IncredibleBMX

The thing about that analogy though is you could also say if it's Rock then it's tasteless and hard to swallow,

heheh.

[spartan3555]

@IncredibleBMX but you keep the eminems.

[jusifiedmurder]

@spartan3555 NO... just no.

[ad1170]

@spartan3555 can i have the red ones

[Morrik07]

Rise Against played this in St. Augi.. Wasn't expecting them to at all but they fucking killed it!! AMAZING song made even better live.
