City & Colour - Like Knives

[HerSunHisMoon91]

Ugh ...how this is making me sad ...but I still love it.damn it!

[liambedford]

possibly the best 240p video on YouTube?

[jmontesTHEACADEMY]

This was the first song i heard this year and i was thinking of someone special to me, and when it was 12 am the conclusion of the song with the "can i have you" started as the new year started , kind of an odd coincidence

[MrBreakHerNeck]

Still waiting...

[MitikaFeO]

<3

[SamanthaAmazing1]

I Love his voice. I Love everything about him. His music makes me think of walking down a street at night with just the street lights on. With that special someone... What does it make you guys think of? I Just Love This Song! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

[leightonransome]

@SamanthaAmazing1 The one you waited for, but she never returned.

[SamanthaAmazing1]

@leightonransome What makes you say that?

[leightonransome]

@SamanthaAmazing1 It was my ex girlfriend and I's song and she moved out of state for a little bit. She told me to wait, she was supposed to come back, yet she found love there and decided to stay there.

[SamanthaAmazing1]

@leightonransome I'm so sorry... Do you have Facebook?

[leightonransome]

@SamanthaAmazing1 Yep, Leighton Ransome.

[maniacmarleyy]

@SamanthaAmazing1 it makes me think of the girl that broke my heart because this was her favorite band. she truely hurt me........

[Duquesep]

Can I have you? ♥

[MrSqueenies]

I blame myself, always!

[freedomfromthisplace]

:`( ... i do blame myself

[cocobaby1969]

@linkrox777 amen

[linkrox777]

Anytime I learn a song from City and Colour on the guitar I swear I'm in a different world when I play it..

[ximachimpx]

my heart hurts..

[angelicazombiee]

These songs are more than songs they are devices to make you feel deeper emotions thanks dallas 3

[Whoooooooa]

It hurts so good.

[guitxmaster11]

i have one big man crush on Dallas Green <3 and im straight .. all of his songs give me shivers .. he is just awesome. nothing else to say.

[MegaWiggy123]

@guitxmaster11 im with u on that 1 bro. hes a beautiful man! with a pure voice like no other:D

[R0tuning]

Im singing this for my choir and voice recitals next month. Wish me luck, i've practiced it almost as many times as I've heard it. :)

[Sepherocky]

@R0tuning How did it go?

[DehE1337]

Such a soothing voice.

[kimber120306]

@zaksTrance -just curious- what do you believe in since you don't believe in God??? And what made you feel this way??

[minhores]

im not gay but, i think i love this man.

[FINCHster]

@41screwhead his new album will have drums in it

[marsbombdiggity]

dallas green, can i have you?

[b0rnc0nfused6]

this song gave me chills before he even started to sing

[Natyrapvida]

I just can't get enough of this song

[Natyrapvida]

4:34 is not enough

[mysweetsense]

UGH JUST I CANT EVEN, SO BEAUTIFUL.

[CoolStoryBrah26]

Dallas Green is the Eric Clapton of our generation.

[broitshursty]

@MrBowww1 Same here. And I never want to go to rehab.

[crackerjacksfairy]

It's like he knows.... knows what people are thinking, what they are feeling, and what they need to hear in order to feel like they are not alone. Dallas, your voice is the key to my heart.

[MrBowww1]

City & Colour is officially my new addiction.

[BongoClive13]

pretty much in love with city and colour :)

[D1D1P]

fuck the person that linked me to this

[shootybooty1]

Stumble upon is my best friend... without you, my life would still be lacking City & Colour



[ZaksTrance]

almost killed myself to this song once, looking back on it... that was the dumbest idea i'd ever had. what the fuck good would that have done? i've got all of this free time and this amazing life span left and I wanted to just throw it all away? for what? over some stupid bitch? this song definitely reminds me of my ex but I still fucking hate her. I have someone who appreciates me now, thank god. I don't believe in god but you know how it is. so glad to be out of that part of my life.

[MrCarloons]

Biology Exam tomrrw, but I cant study ...

Simply get carried away by this tune

[Hootshot112]

I was going through a rough patch once and got outside in the cold of november, Montreal, and hit the random button of my ipod and got to this song.

It made me feel better.

[KoolaidluvsStephanie]

Dallas Green has such a powerful voice...nothing even compares to it

[Itspossible2011]

3:33..so much passion.

[xdropxxdeadx313]

this is the song to my heart :3 <3

[choochoony13]

i def cried the first time i heard this song... so touching <3

[mayne812]

his voice seriously gives me the chills. <3



[Ninjixxx49]

love this dude  gr8 voice

[sydhoney00]

14 people do not have anyone!

[JustMeganxD]

There's so much more talentless garbage artists (not stating any names because that'll spark a debate) that have recognition but not Dallas? Come on. Does he not deserve to be everywhere?

HOWEVER,

I am glad that he's not being overplayed by the radios and such for people who don't even really appreciate his music and the spectacular lyrics. <3

[MantisTobagganMD]

@JustMeganxD whos Dallas?

[16isminedonchaknow]

@MantisTobagganMD he is the dude who you're listening to....... dallas green...... city and colour

[leahdj1]

2:44 gives me goose bumps EVERY time! his voice is unreal.

[gdb08]

USED to be...then you heard music like this.

[leaderliter]

I would definitely have sex with Dallas Greens voice over the most gorgeous girl in the world

[MrDinosaurproduction]

Dude. @kateeRadkeASFTT, yessss. :) <3.

[brandonfan333]

What a beautiful creation, Dallas Green's voice.

[KateeRadkeASFTT]

Am I the only one that notices the way his voice like cracks at 3:16? I'm pretty much in love with it.

[Dylan237tyr5]

Can i have you?

[TelaNvideoLand]

addicted <3 

[IammarshallT]

I too am in love. But shh, don't tell my girlfriend.

[RainbowRaea]

Something in his voice and lyrics just hits me in the heart… and I cry like a baby.

[BasementGhostCenna]

I LOVE CITY AND COLOUR AND ALEXISONFIRE. :)

[jackieemejiaa]

What is this song about? :P

[FloridianAsshole22]

@the17thfuture 1. mtv doesnt play music and if they did it wouldnt be this kind which would be gay and 2. hes from canada and we all know if its from canada and its good shit they keep it to themselves except for justin beiber. thats youtube's fault.

[socksanne]

ahhhh im sooo in love!!!!! sshhh don't tell my boyfriend lol!

[sethmjH]

he doesnt have as many good songs with city and colour as he does with alexisonfire

[iaMDeeGaNx]

@sethmjH Two different kinds of music tbf, some pefer this kind and others prefer alexisonfire stuff :)

[guccifram3dame]

a white girl ipod brought me here. and I love his music..

[the17thfuture]

why isn't this guy playing on MTV and why isn't he everywhere!!!!!!! he's way too good but hes way too overlooked in the music industry...

[rawrrdolll]

omg i have listened to this song , not even exagerating. like 70 times.

[rawrrdolll]

sometimes you will only focus on his voice since its so incredible, but if you just try to focus on the guitar, oh my god. wow. its amazing. i feel like i just went to heaven.

[music9man]

his music makes women ovulate

[nikki4u22]

@music9man

Haaaa best comment ever! And true..true..true..his music also makes women want a man.

[music9man]

@nikki4u22 dallas and I are a dying breed, what can I say?

But seriously, he makes men want a man, too.

[MistrAnonymous]

@music9man As much as I love Dallas and his music. No, I've never wanted a man because of this.

I just want a girl who can enjoy it also. Which now I believe I have.

[JWPMAN1]

@nikki4u22 ROFLOL I can only magin!

[Twitchelicious69]

I love Dallas Green <3

[Bagmankyle]

Oh Dallas... your songs are like knives, when they pierce through my heart and make me fall inlove once again <3

[stupotblues]

Wow

[Waiting4aReply]

This song explains it all. <3

[turnerfield77]

this is song writing in its purest form, this man is a monumental genius

[Pixiestyc]

City and Colour is about to EXPLODE into main stream. Just watch.

[RyantheCanuckpirate]

I used to be an atheist..

[GuitaristforGod23]

@RyantheCanuckpirate Are you not anymore?

[browngreenred15]

@RyantheCanuckpirate

I still am.

[KrypticsWorld]

@RyantheCanuckpirate I'm athiest and I still love Dallas' music.



[HighHopes210]

@KrypticsWorld I think that what he meant is he used to be an atheist but now that he knows about City and colour, he sees Dallas Green as a god cause he's sooo great

[finalbrady]

@HighHopes210 I took it to be in response to the other top rated comment.

[TheBryMan33]

as soon as he starts singing, "yyyyyour words...." i get a shiver down my spine. the dude is a GOD. do yourselves a favor, and SEE THIS MAN perform these songs live...

[morpheus2064]

such a great voice for what he does....really just gets it

[hdci123]

this song and others on this album have gotten me through really tuff times, and still are.. They've convinced me to say no all the times I've seriously contemplated suicide and i love them for that. City and Colour forever <3

[rebound2001]

The end gives me goosebumps

[spazbabygirl]

i really enjoy dallas greens stuff hes a truely talented voice, and i agree, he should be more recognized, he sings about reall stuff stuff that not just teenage girls can listen to, he sings about truth and feelings not getting a girlfriend <3

City and Colour i love you<3 and i hope u stay just how you are, perfect rare and diffrent

[SeriouslySoRandom]

sorry for the many comments XD didn't mean to :P

[emilybemily514]

jizz

[SeriouslySoRandom]

I truelly love city and colour! and this song i amazingly beautiful <3 but lyrics wise it's not his greatest work but still impresive for 17 years but it really showes that he's grown <3 and he is an amazing artist <3

[santomon07]

Beautiful music...the only thing I would add is drums...the songs sound "unfinished without them...a great build up with no release...you feel the climax coming and then the song just fizzles out...come on guys! Who's ego is standing in the way of getting a drummer? To each his own but ....these songs would be mind boggling with a little drums added... ;)

[DARKFlREMOOCOW]

@santomon07 This is just dallas's side project lol. His little indie thing that he usually does the music for himself. :P Check out Alexisonfire. its his main screamo band. u'll find plenty drums there LOL. not an expert on dallas, love his music, so just clarifying a bit :P

[santomon07]

@DARKFlREMOOCOW Oh well that's a relief...I'll have to check him out...He's obviously very talented!!! ;)

[keepontrippin]

i can't believe he wrote this when he was just 17, i saw him at the Royal Albert Hall in London last night and it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life.

[MrOhiojones]

@keepontrippin i know, pretty deep shit for a 17 year old huh? no doubt dallas is the man.

[akaded1]

@keepontrippin is that true 17?????? awesome!!!

[keepontrippin]

@akaded1 that's what he said! (: incredible

[BigCityBreakdown]

I have an acoustic solo project called Big City Breakdown and I am heavily influenced by City and Colour, so if you like Dallas Green then you should check out my channel :)

[ReganRevengexKaulitz]

Can I have you? <3

[MrOhiojones]

can i have you? ah, i i love it

[AustinofJensen]

10 people are in dire need of a serious hug.

[izzaaaaayboo]

[SynysterKezia]

@izzaaaaayboo

[emmax092]

[TheMG1MG2]

[mazziniGratta]

[DoElaborateRx]

All hate is dissolved through this music.

[theholyemo]

@sonicesosweet haha you are right there he is one fricken awesome guy!

[theholyemo]

@sonicesosweet just letting you kknow its just one guy not a band :)

[TheMG1MG2]

@theholyemo well true but he actually does have a band, hes got instrumentalist and some back up singers..not for this particular song though

[blinkme478]

When he sings, "Can I have you", I get goosebumps every time <3

[XMyLifeIsADisasterX]

This song is amazing.

Why is Justin Bieber Mentioned in every discussion on here!?

Jeez!

Enjoy the music. -3

[nottiesh]

[bawzack]

dallas green is the inequivalent to chuck Norris

[kylexysbiggestfan]

This song is amazing..I wish there were more guys like Dallas Green..

[zowiiwood]

Dallas Green is a legend, and his songs are so emotional they help us all! x

[rebeccaskye]

Rebecca Skye new song - have a listen - thanks...

[CityAndAstronomy]

So, I feel like an idiot, I just now figured out that his name is Dalas Green, and that's where the name came from.. I thought that Dallas Green was just another name for City&Colour. LOL.

failsauce.

[cpn72]

@CityAndAstronomy oh! wow. lol

[darababyd]

@CityAndAstronomy don't feel bad.. it took me a while to figure it out too.. it's pretty clever though, right?! :)

[oxonameless]

This song makes me think of a young child whose parent neglects them.

[rebeccaskye]

Here is my cover of Dallas song - have a listen - thanks Rebecca Skye

[MdMorrison2]

stop talking about other artists on this page, sit back relax and enjoy dallas' work

[exxxys]

Can I have you?

[Popothechinchilla]

september 29. 1980 was the second coming of jesus. the parents knew and wanted to keep it a secret. so they named him dallas green. however, they couldnt stop him from creating rediclously delightful music. so now here we are today, he just has to keep his beard a little bit shorter

[xAshieVengeancex]

Can I have you?

[IlEatYouForBreakfast]

i only had to listen to one of his songs to fall in love with Dallas Greens music. it is truely inspiring.

[dyllantaylor]

dallas green you are an amazing man.

[Davisac44]

what the hell were 10 people thinking?

[KierstenAubrey]

Dallas Green = <3

[MsNiz09]

Love it!!! Dallas you are the man!!

[vernopeanut]

Grandeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­ee.



[ClintPJohn]

Lol/\/\/\/

[thewesterliesband]

@nnlflowerprincess

Yup, because that clown fucker owns youtube.. he knows your every move.

[HeyDJ44]

@thewesterliesband

I nearly died from laughing. xD

[blackhearts24]

isn't it awesome when we can appreciate actual talent?

everyone on the radio lately, is just computer programming.

but no, not dallas.. [& other artists/bands as well.]

he sounds the same Live & in mp3s

gives me faith that talent still exists.

[clevelandtyler2]

@blackhearts24 oh talent exists. its just that the media in our country doesn't recognize it so they never get noticed.

[YourDreaming101]

Dallas Green makes me feel a whole different feeling that man has no name for.

I could listen to his voice for the rest of my life.

[starryapricot]

Dallas Green is my hero.

[GClover02]

Dallas Green saves lives. 

[CreeCreex]

@GClover02 he saves mine with every hardship. a man with an amazing passion, is a light to everyone who needs it. <3

[JustAngela4]

@GClover02 He sure saved mine <3

[GOATSAUCE]

@GClover02 Dallas Green can end lives as well

[missciannacannibal]

@GClover02 word.

[lagordita149]

I love when the comments are good and all about music, this generation is all about music and romance and us following our dreams. This is true music. Its inspires us to want to be so great and creat something as good as this. Music is all we need.

[lilcaitz]

i love how ordinarly he looks, then he sings and completely blows you away.

[SuperbCheFF666]

Awesome song one of my favorites by dallas

[jayrawable]

8 people don't know how to live.

[Zuity]

Hornyest voice on earth <3

[TheoriginalmsIDGAF]

Dallas Green, Can I have you?

[iammadisonn]

His voice is magical. Ahhh!

[ixKilledxThexCookiex]

I kinda feel bad for writing that comment above. as you can see i wrote it awhile ago. I'm not trying to say that justin bieber isn't talented, because he is. I'm simply saying that I wish Dallas Green was a little more recognized for his talents because his songs are truly something else, and everyone can relate to them. not just teenage girls.

[edwardcphoto]

@ixKilledxThexCookiex P.S. Just Bieber is truly a joke...

[FamilymanDisaster]

@ixKilledxThexCookiex Touche.....

[rejects96]

@ixKilledxThexCookiex I get what you mean. don't feel bad, its your opinion, it frustrates me as well. Dallas is such a amazing man. Seriously, so talented too, helps many people.. I hope he gets big but stays who he is.

[DeltaStudios1]

@ixKilledxThexCookiex 100% true excellent point :) Dallas Green is the best and i dont know anyone that dislikes him, looks like 10 people do what a shame.
