  • This very well may be my favorite song of all time. All Choked Up is it's only competition.

  • so sad :'c

  • This song is just, damn. Simple but passionate. Absolutely love it.

  • Maxim is pretty fucking awesome.

  • By far one of my favorite songs.

  • Comment removed

  • I will name a child after Max Bemis.

  • I'm In Love with Say Anything <3

  • <3

    

  • one of the people i look up to most, and the most passionate musician ive ever seen.

  • i thought this was a cover when i clicked on it and i was like holy shit he looks just like him too... then i was like immmm dumb

  • hahaha lol The guy from "Scrubs" has picked up a couple pounds

  • This is a good performance but nothing will beat the Baseball version. So much emotion in the music and vocals on that entire album really. Way more angst-y.

  • im in lovee lol

  • Simply. Gorgeous.

  • I love how much passion Max puts into every single performance. This man is my actual hero and has got me through so much.

  • <3 made me cry a little

  • This should be the only version of this song

  • Musical genius.

  • Max is so awesome he doesn't need to iron his shirt!

  • Say anything has saved me so many times! I hope i can be like them one day...

  • Max Bemis is incredible. I love his voice.

  • he sounds like neil young. mad props bro!! keep it up. :)

  • <3

  • i woild pay 4 a stay in sweden and some playse 4 you guys the only thing is that i whatn to meet you.... contact me i willl pay

  • He turns my insides into pop rocks and daisies <3

  • i met Max

  • @alltimekyle you lucky son'bitch

  • @poempoorlywritten3 not necessarily.. my sis met him, and he was a total dick to her. can't really blame him though, he was probably just having a bipolar episode.

  • @hiimmooky What a major bummer.. well still cant help but admire him for his talent

  • @hiimmooky Or your sister was being relentlessly obnoxious.

  • @StapleGunMS No, she wasn't. Bemis is a major inspiration for my sister, and she's not the bubbly type. I don't blame Max, he's bipolar and a manic depressive.

  • I could watch Max Bemis awkwardly sing all day long.

  • the song wasn't bad but don't watch the video, his speech impediment and the weird way he moves his mouth will make you sick

  • @toiletbran64

    Funny, I watched the whole thing and don't feel sick at all. Shallow much?

  • @bicyclewreck It may be shallow, I'm not trying to flame the guy, he's got balls, I'm just telling it like it is

  • @bicyclewreck I mean 3:48 who says it like that?

  • @toiletbran64 Clearly Max Bemis says it like that. Is that a real question? Maybe you should base your reality on what you perceive, not on what you perceive through others. If you did, you wouldn't ask, "who says it like that?" It wouldn't fucking matter.

  • @bicyclewreck I perceive that no one but this guy says "it" with their tongue out of their mouth

  • @toiletbran64 Then you answered your own question: "Who says it like that?" Max Bemis.  You ended your own argument. Welcome to the real world.

  • @toiletbran64 Are you kidding me homey? That's what turned you off? This song is fantastic. Get over yourself.

  • @toiletbran64 he doesn't have a speech impediment, he sings in a certain style that he has to manipulate his tongue that way

  • @toiletbran64 I'd rather see some character while the guy sings, personally. Injects a little more personality into the performance. And this guy puts on a hell of a performance. If you ever have the good fortune to see him live, you'll shut your mouth.  Promise.

  • 13 people accidentally clicked the wrong button. There is literally no other excuse for not liking this.

  • @scion35

    i totally agree!

  • This man is beautiful, but I'm not referring to his looks. He is emotionally gorgeous.

  • Max I will sell you this Xanax for 5 dollars...

  • Ramah should really have Say Anything perform at camp one summer

  • Max is my hero, always.

  • SA played this in Detroit last year. I've never seen such a huge crowd reaction. It was insane.

  • @TheProbablyDrunk I was there, it was great<3

  • @TheProbablyDrunk I was there too!

  • people like you are why people like me exist..

    

  • For some reason this song is great to listen to when you're sad. This song is beautiful acoustic. You are a genius Max, lyrically and musically. Maybe one day I'll get the honor to share the stage with you. =]

    -Samantha, AYA

  • MAX you are awesome. i just want to sit down and sing with you. good luck in the world

  • Hey Max, I know that you read all these comments and take to heart a lot of the shity ones but I just want you to know that I really admire what you do. I think you are so fuckin talented and would really like to talk to you as a friend. Fuck those who dont like the songs. Fuck them cause they dont understand but I do, man. I think your great. I can tell a lot has happened in the past and I envy you for how you have become now. Drop me a message some time, man. Thehazman00.

    - Justin

  • im so glad people like Max Bemis exist....

  • I love this version alot better <3

  • I've literally spent hours feeling pretty depressed just listening to this version of this song in a loop. It made me feel better to know someone else went through the same (well, in Max's case it was much worse) stuff I was going through.

  • 13 ppl obviously love justin bieber and blood on the dance floor

  • @FUCKSCOTTNELSON LMAO!

  • Max Bemis is one of the best musicians around today, that's fact.

  • I'd go gay for Bemis.

    No question

  • @ikilledhannahmontana Amen. Or should I say Ahh...Men?(:

  • @shmaller  Cheers

  • I love Max Bemis with all my heart.

    His voice leave me speechless. And his words hit me :)

    Say anything will be my favorite band forever <33

  • @alovablemanatee hahahahah I did not even notice that, it does sound pretty gay ahaha. I so didn't mean it that way.

  • I like how he can make his voice intense and mad at the world AND soft and amazing.

  • After all these years listening to the heavy stuff like SlipKnoT, then finding Say Anything changed my life totally. Just listening to this makes me both happy and sad at the same time, Alot of emotions in this song, and his voice. Masterpiece.

  • Max's lyrics describe my life. This man is my hero

  • @wannaskate7now Agreed

  • @wannaskate7now This is a pretty easy song. Play around with the G, C, and E chords and experiment to get the variants of those chords. If I knew the official name of the chords I'd tell you.

  • Come back to the norva! I saw you guys with MCR, blew them out of the water, then I saw you guys with A&A, so of course A&A looked like amateurs

  • @TheAubreyNeeley :o I saw them with Angels and Airwaves too. True, I like Say Anything more. They are my favorite band. However, I wouldn't say they made A&A look like amateurs. They are an amazing band as well. :P

    haha. :)

  • This is an early song,it makes more sense if you're high...

  • FUCK YOU MAX BEMIS for selling out the only show within 450 miles of my house

  • @nicorjr lololol i don't know you, but i love you for that.

  • MAX BEMIS needs to come to the north east so that i can go to his effing shows

  • 12 people have horrible taste in music.

  • oh. my. god. This is beautiful. Not that the album version is bad, not at all, but this accoustic blows it out of the water. So good.

  • You should play this on your solo tour. Just saying.

  • Twelve people have grown too colorblind

  • he looks like he's gonna cry...true emotion! this man is my life!!

  • Why, why is he so stinkin' cute!?

  • @cooliodiddy Me too! Max puts on the greatest live shows

  • Just saw Say Anything on Wed

  • @mjbeasty me tooooo :)

  • @mjbeasty same here!!!

  • @mjbeasty same

  • Everyone. He isn't left handed. Jeeze look at every other video that's NOT recorded by him and he is playing righty. It IS his webcam that's doing mirror flip. :) Everyone move along and live with it. =]

  • Max, you are a beautiful man with a beautiful soul and you made my night tonight at your concert, please come back soon <3

    Sincerely,

    A fan from St. Louis.

  • I missed you in SF yesterday. all my friends went. i didn't "( oh well. come back soon.

  • I love how he sings this song with so much emotion. Your amazing Max.

  • I'm in love.

  • you. are. so. amazing.

  • What a beautiful person.

    In every way.

  • this may be the most beautiful song ever written...and max is a genius every little quirk he adds is incrediblee

  • is this mirrored or something?

  • Comment removed

  • @treflip3601 he's left handed i believe,you see his wedding ring on his left hand in another video and he's playing lefty

  • @jtrimble381 nah hes right handed

  • @jtrimble381 I think he might have used some mirror image effect on this video, because I've seen him live and he played right handed... and as you can see be every video on the suggestions list, he plays righty... but who knows maybe he can play both. I wouldn't put it past him, he's god like.

  • @kyledub213 he's recording it with a webcam, which a webcam has that mirrored effect.

  • @ProjektMayham no... not even close to true. I record all of my videos with a webcam and it still appears that I am playing right handed. a mirror effect can be done as a special effect, but it's not just how a camera sees it.

  • im sorry hes a great singer nd all his face dat he makes when singing is funny

  • this is amazing. :)

  • Love this song and now it just made me love it even more =D

  • why u so awesome?

  • 11 people were brought to tears during this and therefore couldnt tell the difference between the like and dislike button due to their blurry eyes

  • With every harmony comes the agony

    A perverted proverb of ambiguity

    Behind the door it eats all the roses

    Causing spilling words and halitosis

  • u rock man 

  • @WhitneyAndJoel

    lol u mad he made real money and u didnt? must suck to know a shallow person like you will never be as talented like this man ^.^

  • @pennstatefan979 I was kidding, my god. I know he isnt fat and he is actually really good,. Okay. And that day i was in a bad mood so i said a lot. And i regret it. So sorry. Oh and btw not trying to be a bitch. But i do have talent. I have a agent . Sooooo.

  • @WhitneyAndJoel Oh yeah, agent, I'm sure...

    Go Max! Hands down one of the most talented people in the world! He MUST do more stuff from the dormroom demos!!!

  • @teamcritical Dont believe me . fine by me.

  • @teamcritical in fact, This was on their "Baseball" album, but it's not recognized by the band as their 1st album.

  • @liverpoolfcfab5 Very aware, weird mess up on my part. Although, I would kill to hear dormroom songs. Until The Bombs might just be my favorite song ever. =P

  • I wish I could find the words to explain how much I love this version of Colorblind but, as always, I can never put the love and admiration I have for Max Bemis and the rest of Say Anything into words.

  • i cant really understand why, but theres something special about say anything. u guys are just so unique and every song is special and different. thts why ur my favourite band and one day we shall meet! XP good vid too ^^

  • gosh i love this album really max you need to play all these songs live. its my fave album from you guys and it sucks i cant get the physical copy b/c theres only like 200.

  • @hottsaucekid The way I understand it, he hates the album himself. Highschool nostalgia I guess. But it really is amazing like everything else he writes. I think this is the first song he's played from baseball in a long long time.

  • really good song

    i like this version better

  • loose weight then we will talk.

    lol :P

  • @WhitneyAndJoel shallow people like you are just soooo ignorant it makes me laugh honestly

  • @WhitneyAndJoel he's not even fat. and this song is pure gold. GTFO of here.

  • @WhitneyAndJoel lose*. learn to spell, and then we'll talk.

  • @paintballonaim @JokingJordan I was kidding, my god. I know he isnt fat and he is actually really good,. Okay. And that day i was in a bad mood so i said a lot. And i regret it. So sorry

  • @WhitneyAndJoel he might not have been the skinniest person, but he ha lost weight since this video. I have seen him live recently. He was able to take care of that with diet and exercise. Too bad it's not that easy to fix shallow people. So in the words of good Ol' Max " go jump in a polluted great lake and go fishing for snakes!..."

    g'day. :) I <3 SA- Can't wait to see them in November!!

  • @JokingJordan I was kidding, my god. I know he isnt fat and he is actually really good,. Okay. And that day i was in a bad mood so i said a lot. And i regret it. So sorry

  • Please max bemis, don't leave. Stay like this. And the first rainbow i see... will be the last.

  • My favorite part about this video was that it's impossible to pause it during the chorus without Max looking like he has two fists up his ass.

  • amazing

  • amazing

  • max u are a very talented artist. i love your voice

  • 11 people musta missed the like button

  • probably already posted on this one, but damn... its so good. Anyone who gives this a thumbs down must have something against max, or just not like his style of music... but who wouldnt like max's style????

  • Good god this is so awesome. Max Bemis is MY FAVOURITE PERSON EVER! :A

  • Damn, this is beautiful in every way/shape/form.

  • he makes funny faces when he sings, such beautiful songs

  • how can ANYONE dislike this? 11 faggots

  • dear max, I LOVE YOU, like this. PLEASE dont change. stay like this forever. more songs like crush'd and acoustic based.. this is what people listen to and fall in love with your lyrics and got to where you are today. please.

  • I wish I could hear the guitar a little better. I know the chords to the song, but his strumming is what makes this acoustic cover really sound beautiful. And his voice is so different, but different definitely doesn't mean bad. One of my favorite acoustic versions of a song, ever.

  • As much as i hate to admit it, this will probably be the only performance of an older say anything song (before is a real boy) that we will ever see...

    other than a walk through hell.

  • @mynameisacoolpenguin

    max was talking about playing pre- is a real boy stuff live on twitter :)

  • @ILOVESHIT1000 Okay, so... Black Crowes don't have a song called Colorblind. So high five for fact checking. COUNTING Crows (notice the lack of the letter 'e') does. But it is a completely different songs. Thats like meeting two people named Steve and insisting they are the same person.

  • All of the people saying he's a jerk:

    Sherri's younger sister opened for my friends band awhile ago and Max and Sherri were there. I got my friend to go tell him what a fan I was. Well he left the conversation he was having with people to come over and shake my hand. It was really nice considering it wasn't even his show and he probably SHOULD have been annoyed that fans were bothering him.

  • i just noticed that he can play guitar with both hands, has anyone else noticed that? thats legit!

  • @maxknowsbest13 nah he cant play with both hands he is using the webcam, on a mac i think, to record this so it is like a mirror. backwards from what he is really doing.

  • @maxknowsbest13 its just the camera flips it, my webcam does it too

  • @maxknowsbest13, it's probably just his webcam, lots of them default to record/take a picture in a mirrored view. But if not then that is quite impressive.

  • max is just adorable :)

    i could listen to him all day mmhmm

  • arrhh such an amazing song - so amazing that i covered it, y'all should check it out :D

  • oh god. this is amazing.

  • I like this version but I wish he kept the chorus the way it was. I really like the chorus in the original but I like the verse a lot.

  • orgasm.

  • 1. I had always heard he was a Dick everybody would tell me that, and if you listen to a lot of his older music the words talk about how is a loner and doesnt need anyone. But my experience was at warped tour he was scheduled to do come out with the band and sign autographs well he never showed he stayed in his tour bus but the rest of the band showed

  • Hahahahaha. You're a fucking faggot.

  • love this song <33

  • I completely agree this guys is great truly one of the best of our generation. But he is kind of a dick.

  • @joe50602 im not going rabid fan mode or anything....but how is he a dick ? (im just intrested on how u think hes a dick)

  • @HeroShadowEX2 3.He would say things like wow you guys are great in a way that made it sound like he didnt want to be there. That was my experience with him he may not be like that all the time but I had heard it from many people and experienced it myself. But in no way do I dislike his music or put him down on his writing ability like I said he is great.

  • @HeroShadowEX2 I Answered your question with his. hope this doesn't change your veiw on his music.

  • @joe50602 not at all, i love his music

  • @HeroShadowEX2 agreed

  • @joe50602 i also would like to know what makes him a dick.

  • Comment removed

  • @gottygear1864 2. the band said he was writing music, But this was at a time when he was selling songs he wrote to people and his reason for doing this was that he wanted more money and if his band put out the song he would have to share it with them. When he got on stage at he put on a great show but in between songs.
