Despite the popularity of this song I still like it. Coheed and Cambria is my favorite band. I like it how Claudio based the name of the band off of his comics. And most of the songs are about the comics as well. It's beautiful. The beginning of this song is so epic. And my favorite lyric is "Please make up your mind girl, before i hope you diiiieeeeeeeeeee."
I can't stand this song. I own the two albums In Keeping Secrets of Silents Earth 3 and Good Apollo I'm Burning Star IV: Fear Through The Eyes of Madness and this is the only song i skip over when I'm playing them through. The drums in it are boring. Eh it gets old fast especially after fucking rock band. I'll admit it still is a badass song but im just so sick of, there are so many better CoCa songs
this band sucks so much it is so emo u guys should eat donkey B@7LZ cuz ur that emo stop listening 2s coheed and cambriaaaa cuz dAt a drug daAt make u hiiiiiiiii i bet dey cutz dem selfx et n9it becuz teh em emozz....zzzzzzzzzzzzz
Gah! That film looks cool, but it's not Tim Burton's film, he produced it, he didn't direct or write it. I'm a fan of Burton's, but very often he's credited unduly, Nightmare Before Christmas being the perfect example, it was directed by Henry Selick...
Sorry to get offtopic as none of that has anything to do with the song above, but it is a minor annoyanceof mine... the song is pretty cool though
the second stage turbine blade, in keeping secrets of silent earth: 3, good apollo i'm burning star IV: from fear through the eyes of madness, good apollo i'm burning star IV: no world for tomorrow... oldest to newest
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
It's a shame that this song is their only one that reaches this level of epicness, a lot of the songs on this album are good too but anything before that... Horrible.
they used this in the trailer for Tim Burton's and some other Directors movie called 9 due out on September 9 this year...well the used the instrumental parts...
I cant remember its specific meaning, but its to do with the crucifixion.
And actually its very easy to get a stand in to do the work, im sure one guy out there can sing in Kurdt Cobain's voice very easily, its not a hard voice.
I got three friends hooked on Coheed and Cambria because of this song and how amazingly fun it is to play on Rock Band. Definitely the recommended song for Co & Ca 101.
Love coheed and cambria, but i wish all their songs sounded this heavy, good thing i mostly judge based on lyrics, but this song is just all around what i love in a song.
because it represents marriage, like his right hand, and never his left hand (wedding finger) so their love dies at his right hand, and thats as far as they got and they never got married or like... got divorced one of the two, but thats what it generally means
I believe they censored letter because there are many Catholics out there that would be offended from letter. And I believe that what Claudio meant by "letter" in the lyrics. He was the shape of the cross since the next line was "I'll drill through your hands" which was what happened to Jesus on the cross making his body look like the letter "T". Many Catholics would find this offensive in a game like Rock Band so that's why they changed it to martyr which wasn't offensive compared to letter.
Quick question: Are there any other Coheed songs like this? It's my favorite song from them, I mean, the other songs are good, but they don't have the real "epic" feel to them.
well not really, i mean 1 thing about coheed is that most of there songs dont sound the same, but i mean there are plenty of songs that are epic in there own way, the key is to listen to the whole song and not just stop after a minute cuz they change usually half way through. try the final cut, the light and the glass, the crowing, in keeping secrets of silent earth: 3, from fear through the eyes of madness, on the brink, and the end complete.

Claudio Sanchez: "The Writer has a vision. He sees himself in this disfigured form, and a woman bound next to a grave. And the woman says 'don't kill me, I love you.' and he says, 'What do you care? You left me this way the only way my pain will end is in your suffering. Now get in the ground' And thats the scene in the video."
0.o im a lil confuzzled. I havent YET read Good Apollo IV the graphic novel, but im sure he doesn't kill her? Or does he? Really confused. Most of the story foreshadows shes still alive and he misses her, but BAH. CONFUSING RIGHT NOW! Any help here? Im sure he only beat her.
basically. here is what the guy who wrote the song said, and everyone look at this so that there arent any more questions. Claudio Sanchez: "The Writer has a vision. He sees himself in this disfigured form, and a woman bound next to a grave. And the woman says 'don't kill me, I love you.' and he says, 'What do you care?

i heard they were good so i came to check them out. your assume to much. which makes you a fucktard. only your a fucktard that likes coheed and little bitch claudio.
ur jsut mad cuz he actually has talent unlike so many other bands, but u probably dont know shit about claudio so stfu until u do the proper research and not judge just based on his voice, unless u didnt notice there are 4 other instruments.
there isnt a new album. Claudio said the prequel album will likely come out fall of 2009, which is in a bout a year. so nothing new is coming out. And if ur talking about Neverender that is a 4 day concert in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and London. and there are going to be 4 shows, 1 for each album in each city. So i guess thats a total of 16 shows. but there is no new album...yet
COHEED AND CAMBRIA, see how its in capital letters? that means one thing, they are the new meaning of the best progressive rock band out there! rate this comment an up if you agree.
hes not an idiot, sure its not really the darkest song out there but the story that goes a long with the song are of relatively dark content. besides its his opinion.
love the guitar solo!!!!!

If they censored Whore they'd censor Jesus and Martyr.

No because 'Jesus played Martyr' isn't offensive you idiot.
'Jesus Played Letter' Is offensive.
And the fact the censor 'Whore' is gay wank, they didn't do it for Shitty Nirvana.
danfrost313 3 years ago
Thats probably because the lead singer of Nirvana is dead and they cant have him change it.
Anyways, how does Jesus played letter even make any sense and how is it offensive?
Makaveli675 3 years ago
I cant remember its specific meaning, but its to do with the crucifixion.
And actually its very easy to get a stand in to do the work, im sure one guy out there can sing in Kurdt Cobain's voice very easily, its not a hard voice.

I think Jesus played martyr would have more to do with the crucifixion since a martyr is someone who dies for what they believed in.
