Rise Aganst - The Approaching Curve Music Video

[Spjibro683]

I think that cat singlehandedly made one of the most powerfully depressing break up songs into a mildly funny song...

[Iampeterz10]

Maybe use more details next time, but i understand your lazy situation haha :) great job though, it basically showed me what i thought of when the song was playing, thank you for doing this!

[jewmins1]

Wow. That video is so simple yet so effective. I'm sure you've made a lot of people feel things from paint pictures that nobody else could do.

Amazing song too btw aha.

[X360GAMEPRO1]

Am i the only one who noticed that he/she used two different colored eyes for who i assume is supposed to be tim? I thought that was pretty neat :D

[TheKoomen]

The end part is epic

[grimauthority]

i first thought to myself that this is just another literal music video some kid made in like 10 minutes. i was dead wrong, this shit makes u think, and makes u do it deeply.

[roc84536]

When I read that this was made in Microsoft paint I thought it would suck. After watching this I have to say it is one of the best music videos I've ever seen. Amazing.

[TheKingkilla312]

favorite song, video, and imagry. GREAT JOB KEEP OT UP!

[sooooboredful]

love the video, simple and went with the lyrics

brang out how deep the song is

[link22665544]

You really deserve more publicity than you get :D

[PimpedPenguin]

bahahahahahahaha i love this :D

[TheSleepyGuitarist]

and the moral of the story- dont break up the relationship when ur partner is driving lol. RA rules

[selccettocs]

'as we were so perfect so happy' best describes a relationship i was in, i loved her, she loved me but i became a dick and ended it and i still regret it to this day.

i fucking love rise against all there songs have a very strong meaning alot like RATM

[HumfreyTheGoofyCamel]

I love how it sounds like he's reading the lyrics as a book or diary.

[toolband1123]

up ahead there was a curve approaching

she made no indications of slowing

that made me really stop and take a look again as to what this song was really about... rise against's shit... deep :)

[itsjennasilly]

this video just made my day i fucking love it :)

[MattSimcockParkour]

Very entertaning. 2:44 made me laugh out loud.

[coopisgod13]

awesome vid =]

[4cellar2door0]

@vapor464 I believe he is saying, while you are going those tragic moments in your life, the ones where you just wanna die.. you honestly believe you're going through the worst pain ever.

And then later on something happens, you're "found" in some way, and it makes all those tears you cried before seem almost silly, petty, and unwarranted.

I haven't been "found" yet, but the tears are drying up and I'm looking for the path :]

[MrXander138]

HAHAHAHA LOVE THE CAT

[StuckOnStupidTV]

Everytime I hear this song, I have to take a moment to stop and think. With this video, I actually started tearing up, and I haven't cried in months, since a break up that went a little like the one described in this song.

It felt amazing to cry for once. Thank you man. Seriously, thanks.

[avocadoes]

@StuckOnStupidTV I'm so glad to hear that! Or, read, I guess..

[Liam44ification]

@StuckOnStupidTV .......Are you actually joking, or are you referring to the childish charm of it?

[4cellar2door0]

You know when it REALLY hits you just how awesome a single line is?

Like maybe a song you've listened to all your life, but there was that one line you always kind of mentally "skipped" because maybe 2+2 hasn't come around to = 4 in your head yet...

Well... one of the lines just clicked for me.

"Long since dried, when we are found, are the tears in which we had drowned."

Truer words ne'er sung.

[sgtlegendkiller]

i need to do something like this

[wolfkeith254]

WOW

[korvettemaster]

Its simple, but it speaks.

[lanosmatrosbros06]

what a song...

[AlklinePrism]

ill never get over how amazing rise against is. this song is just so...for lack of a better word, amazing. i love it, it gives me chills and i tear up everytime at the end. and the great visuals help too. this is a great music vid and a great song, ii love it. :)

[lancethepug]

pretty sick song

[Riyu007]

How could someone write lyrics as perfect as these...

[armadaofturtles]

LOL Awesome job

[leyland247]

nice vid

[ghostofChrist]

lolcats! amazing. good job.

[QwixyZerou]

Did you really draw that cat on paint?

If so ... You truly are great!

jokes aside ... awesome vid! awesome song!

[killerfrog7]

you know this isnt literal right? its about a relationship, not suicide/homicide

its a big metaphor. for example, "she hadnt so much as turned the wheel two degrees" means she hadnt changed at all. he broke up with her, and then they have an argument.

[ConsiderableGravity]

@killerfrog7 personally, i like the literal interperetation. sui/homi is much more dramatic and heart-shattering then a metaphor.

[Iced1992]

@killerfrog7 It can be taken literally if you'd choose to do so. That's the beauty of symbolism.

[GuiHeroMetallicapwns]

i like the kitty. =D... good job man

[RandomLunatic01]

awesome video! thumps up!

[PlaystationNation2k9]

incredible video. favourite rise against video. u should do others for more RA songs.

Is this a joke??!!! You just killed this song!!

[Bloodlust69XD]

You say PINK--I say WTF?

You say HANNAH MONTANA--I say Tim McIlrath

You say ZAC EFRON--I say He's gay

You say RAP--I say METAL

You say IM WEIRD--I say IM MYSELF

92 % of teenagers population has moved on to RAP.

IF YOU are part of the 8 % that still head bang and love metal then, copy and paste this

[1osthope]

[patrickhughesmusic]

Funny that rise against AREN'T metal? I agree mainstream music is messed up nowadays, but don't mix up genres.

Simply awesome! =)
