  • I am falling in love

  • I like this better then the original by Rancid

  • This sounds.. weird. I'm too used to hearing Tim's raspy voice sing this...

  • I am a part of that red that will forever be ostracized by the green. and I'm ok with that.

  • My god, I love how she plays1:20 - 1:42.

  • this isnt a cover? thats the original song!.....i dont see how thats not lights.....

  • @JessicaMc777 A cover is a song redone by another band. The original creator of this song was Rancid, and LIGHTS covered it.

  • @InfamousWorks I'm not stupid, know what a cover is. I just wasn't aware that this song was a cover. I thought it was LIGHTS's original song.

  • @JessicaMc777 My mistake. I wasn't meaning to sound rude, it just seemed like you didn't know what a cover was :3

  • Omigoshh this is an AMAZING COVER!!

    #Rancid ♥

  • Awesome song!!

  • This reminds me of The Perks of Being a Wallflower <3

  • Ehh. Rancid is superior.

  • oh shut your mouth @MiBzAn

  • ok lets be honest. if it didnt say it was a rancid cover most lights fans would think its an original song by lights

  • @MrMrdarkside yep.

  • @546Headbanger oop.

  • @546Headbanger shit.

  • @MrMrdarkside because Lights fans were watching Gullah Gullah Island and sipping Capri Sun when Rancid was making these albums.

  • comment below, true, so true. it's actually an awesome song

  • @MiBzAn Haters gonna hate.

  • love love love this :) just learnt how to play it the otherday

  • wow! thats all I have to say

  • WOW!

    GREAT<3

  • I can't believe Lights had (for the lack of better term) the Bawls to cover this song

    But not only does it work, she made it her cover her own version of the song.

    Well done Lights, well done

  • original is infinatly better.......even if i cant spell

  • LOVE IT !!!!!!!

  • amazing cover!

  • @ripp33 ...cover?

  • this is shit.... :D

  • @doodofrock She sings it better than rancid for your info

  • @FRANKIELALALA Yeah, right, she is really good, but Rancid is the best.

  • this is a nice one =)

  • Rancid did it far better lol but this ain't bad

  • what are the chords for this version? this is killer!! love it~~ thanks

  • Friends <3

  • beautiful, talented, and has taste

    what can i say, i love her, she completely owns this song, its beautiful

  • go fuck cookie monster

    I'm in love.

  • oMG! RATM, and now RANCID hah this chick is dope & likes good music.

  • Anyone now the cords to this be nice to know lol !!

    LIGHTS YOU ARE AMAZING <3333

  • @bwawesome just look up the original from rancid on ultimate guitar. the chords in the intro to it are the same as her's, she just plays them differently.

  • Comment removed

  • wow when i first listened to the acoustic ep and saw the tracklist i thought it would be awesome it was a cover of rancids fall back down. when it started playing i was like "hell yeah" :D

  • im liking this!!

  • Rancid is one of my favourite bands, I am truly in love with punk music. On that note, this is the most fantastic cover ever. I also happened to meet Lights :)

  • Oi, this is beautiful, best cover of rancid I've heard yet

  • cover more rancid songs!!!

    

  • could lights be any more perfect? <3

  • Comment removed

  • Started listening to Rancid in 1998 when I was around 12. I remember them doing this song at the Warped Tour(2003) and it was amazing to see them live. This is a groovy cover. Slow it down and drop an acoustic on anything and it's so chill.

  • I would do unforgivable things to her

  • @SKANKI5M be respectful, shut up

  • This is amazing, her voice is so incredibly beautiful, just like the way she looks. Damn I love her style she also looks really kind. love her :$

  • She is soooo hot

    ! lol and on top of that she has a strong mental conscience???? is she real, my man zach is obsessed but i see why

  • This is GORGEOUS. This cover has gained Lights SO many respect points..

  • <3

  • Hey guys i tabbed this out, solo included. if you want it, send me a message. Its for guitar 5 so if you don't have the program, i'll send you a link for it as well. Vote up so everyone can see it.

  • @WorldsJungleGym Who gives a fuck on what the song is about. Just listen to the song. Focusing on lyrics so much makes you miss out on the song as a whole.

  • Oh my! I start crying while I listened to that song! I had one of the hardest year of my life and at some points I thought that I'd never go trough but now I think that if I was able to make it all alright I can do anything :) Thx for that song!!!

  • 20 people fell back down...and that was the end of their story

  • goosebumps

  • this is how this song was meant to be

  • @Th3R3m1x3d no it's really not. Rancid gives this song the ultimate meaning... bros before hoes... sorry to say but lights is a ho. I dislike this version very much. Like she's talented at what SHE does... I just think this was a terrible song choice. it's a disgrace

  • @aaronpaugh nah buddy, it takes on a deeper meaning the way she delivers it.

  • @Th3R3m1x3d nah buddy, Lights is nothing compared to Rancid. You will never match the emotion the original artist puts into a song... EVER. It's impossible, they wrote it, it's THEIR song, you can't do it better than who wrote it. doesn't matter if you sing it technically better or not, it just won't compare.

  • @aaronpaugh

    that's so true

  • @aaronpaugh ^^ true story! excluding mad world covered by gary jules, but originally done by tears for fears and hurt covered by johnny cash, but original by nine inch nails. Well in my opinion. :)

  • @skatereli I can agree with that lol there are VERY FEW that can come close to that. It's the fact Johnny Cash gave the song a whole new feel and he's a very respected artist so he was like honouring that song so much that Nine Inch Nails was like "fuckin eh"

  • @aaronpaugh along with that, rancid is just fucking amazing. As much as i like Lights, rancid is one of my faves, and they just RULE all music related, everything.

  • @aaronpaugh I'm using this as my facebook status,, but without the 'lights' bit.

    " You will never match the emotion the original artist puts into a song... EVER. It's impossible, they wrote it, it's THEIR song, you can't do it better than who wrote it. doesn't matter if you sing it technically better or not, it just won't compare."

    is a great sentiment!

  • @aaronpaugh Johnny Cash and "Hurt" proove you wrong

  • @aaronpaugh

    I don't know whatever the last person said,

    but I thought that I would just say that uhm,

    LIGHTS covered this. Yeah. She puts her own emotion into it.

    I don't know if that makes sense or not, but yeah. ;3

  • @aaronpaugh the point is, gutter punks have no clue what true friendship is, it had no meaning what so ever coming from them. she gives the lyrics real substance, not a piece of shit based on substance abuse. the song actually has a meaning coming from her. "punk" is really just a term used to refer to a group of kids with no ambition or motivation and are all just looking to get drunk and high 24/7, they will be there for you when theres a party, other than that, useless.

  • @Th3R3m1x3d Everything you just said is just so full of wrong. Both versions are good but saying the cover has more meaning... holy crap

  • Comment removed

  • @Th3R3m1x3d excuse me??? FUCK YOU. Guitar punks? Um, that could be anybody.

    We have ambition you stupid shithead. I aspire to be a music producer. SO WHAT, I LOVE PUNK MUSIC, play punk music with my friends etc. Doesn't mean I'm worthless.

    IMO "punks" know more about friendship than you'll ever know, we don't just get together and drink, we play music, the most sincere form of friendship right there.

    Now, once you have the respect not blow shit out your mouth comment again.

    Oh yeah. Useless.

  • @theman3666 punk is a lifestyle to do what you want and not give a shit about what people think of you, let's not let us punks let some internet troll stop us, thats what he or she thinks let them think that, they'll never know, and it's their loss.

  • @546Headbanger This.

  • @Th3R3m1x3d i remember when i was ignorant, i love punk music but you wouldn't know by looking at me, does that mean i'm a waste case and useless? come on man are you really that close minded that you're gonna classify a group of people based on some music which is some of the highest quality music there is. so you can listen to your generic pop shit and shut out everything that doesn't fit into your white bread leave it to beaver world. the rest of us are going to live live douche bag

  • @aaronpaugh lmfao, you ever seen a real gutter punk up close and personal? or better yet, smelled?

  • @Th3R3m1x3d @Th3R3m1x3d I don't think you have a right to be talking about what gutterpunks know or not without being one. Also saying gutterpunks have no clue what true friendship is, is absolutely wrong. We have a greater sense of comradery and friendship than I have seen in the average person due to similar lives, beliefs, and circumstances. And in gutterpunk communtities I have seen and experienced far greater levels of trust than In many families. Although i do agree about our smell :)

  • @aleisme6668

    shut up, you run the serious risk of making all rancid fans look like ignorant retard fucktards... take your made-up genre and shove it, you are not unique... just take pride in the bands you love, and who cares about all the other people who like it,

    i like rancid and lights. end of the world?

  • @dsid1127 I find it funny that you are insulting my intelligence using such improper grammar, you state the fact that my genre made-up when in fact all genres are made up, they are all just music. Which is what its really all about, am I right? And I also don't understand how my comment in any way made rancid fans look ignorant. I simply stated my observations made from my experience within gutterpunk communities. At no time did I claim to be unique or say anything in regards to Rancid or music.

  • @aaronpaugh Hey man, sorry to crush your reality, but not all girls are hoes... And again, who gives a fuck on what the song is about. Just listen to the melodies. You're missing out on the song as a WHOLE.

  • @xXRoxasKH2Xx sorry man, this is one of my favourite songs and I have too much respect for Rancid, I play this song at the liquor store with my friend 3-4 days a week, don't tell me I'm missing out on the song. Lights just doesn't do it for me, now stop gettin your panties in a bunch cause I dislike all the new gay poppy shit, wtf happened to good ol fashioned rock n roll or other raw genre bands like Rancid.

  • @aaronpaugh That's pretty damned rude. LIGHTS is not a hoe.

  • @Th3R3m1x3d just go fuck urself kay?

    Everyone have their choice of songs, and you better go away from this video and stop ruining the mood for everyone expect u. get it?

  • One of my favorite songs ever, sung in one of my favorite forms of music, by my favorite female vocalist. Doesn't get any better.

  • you know something really amazing? she never just has fans. i have never met someone who was just a fan. we all act like she's our little sister or our best friend. no one is allowed to mess with her. it's kind of our job to protect her. that's the way i feel anyways :)

  • @StayHappyAndSmile fuckin ehhh, her purity and realism is a significant force that creates waves in those that REALLY listen and understand her messages.

  • @StayHappyAndSmile or her wife <3 :)

  • @StayHappyAndSmile Really? This is the gayest thing written in the histroy of the internet EVER...Keeping in mind that that the internet is full of gay porn with dudes commenting about how much they like seeing other dudes taking it up the hoop, what you wrote is a million times gayer. I hope your little sister comes to Winnipeg.....So I can hit her with my truck.

  • @aklassen999 Have a lovely day :)

  • Comment removed

  • @StayHappyAndSmile i always thought the same thing!! like if anyone says one bad thing about her i'm like >.> what did you say?? haha

  • @StayHappyAndSmile

    I couldnt agree more. My friends and I would totally volunteer to be part of her unpaid security force. I cant imagine her needing a group of four or so ex-military guys to protect her but its better to be safe than sorry.

  • @Frost0656 Haha i imagined how that looks: lights surrounded with 4 really big security guys xD Very weird.. But you're right she does't need them because why would anyone harm such a friendly person ;)

  • @StayHappyAndSmile wow, you're fucking gay

  • @Themotleycrue umm, no if i were a guy i'd be gay. i'm just girly :P

  • @StayHappyAndSmile I so agree, she truly is amazing.

  • @StayHappyAndSmile no, i think youre just creepy obsessed.

  • @koolnkrafty i apologize, this was at a time where i was the most insecure, envious, sad little girl on the face of the earth. she was my inspiration at this particular time, someone i really looked up to, like superman and whatnot, when little kids come marching through the house with capes. for future reference, try not to be too quick to judge. you don't always know what's going on by 200 characters of a comment on youtube.

  • @StayHappyAndSmile just saying bro

  • @metallicakid15 word.

  • BAHAHAH okay guys, put your mouse cursor over the video. leave it there until the little yellow/white-ish box pops up(: oh gosh, that made my day!

  • loooove it!

  • Really didn't think I was going to like this take on the song. But it's kind of soothing. Very different from the Rancid version but I like it. She has a great voice.

  • im in love with this

  • Fuck. Rancid's version is way better.

    but she does have a nice voice...but still Rancids version kicks this versions ass

    

  • @fishlips5468 Play it once more, you might find it better :)

  • @xHimeYuna haha, sorry man, this just isn't my kinda music xD

    she does have a nice voice though... but yeah, Rancid is still way better

  • @fishlips5468 haha obviously. rancid is amazing but this is still very beautiful.

  • Yeah... uhh. Rancid does it better.

  • @xUnishop I disagree... but okaay:)

  • 300th like :)

  • wow. a rancid cover i really really like. thank you very very much.

  • i love her acoustics more,personally.(:

  • Nice cover

    

  • so so so good!

    amazing song originally,

    great cover!

    :) :) :)

  • sexxxxxy voice

  • @SUMM3RSN0WFL4K3

    her acoustics are really good though ! Like the ones on video chat, or whatevs

  • I really like this song, Lights, thank you for using something your good at and not being afraid of hiding it! Your music is beautiful!

    Also, thank you for the shout out audio file you gave to my sis before your Toronto Show! I hope to meet you in person and seeing your concert when your back in Toronto!

  • I abuse the replay button. This song is so amazing♥

  • @SUMM3RSN0WFL4K3 Can u like delete this? it's a way off comment. There was also no need for any hate here, there's people who really love her ya know.

  • @billibong804 you people all act like i said her music is shit and she should die. all i said that i didn't like the auto tune and i wish i liked her music but i cant. butt nooooo i said the most hurtful thing apparently so NO i will not delete it. i voiced my opinion and if that's a crime then arrest me PLEASE!

  • @SUMM3RSN0WFL4K3 True, I can respect that, it is your opinion so I can't request for it to be deleted, my apologies. I just didn't like the fact that you ended up "hating" it, you tried to like it, you don't have to hate it.

  • @SUMM3RSN0WFL4K3

    Autotune?

    Fucking troll.

  • @SUMM3RSN0WFL4K3 There are some songs that she sings on her records that uses auto tune but the auto tune fits in with the style of those songs but lights has an amazing voice and doesn't need auto tune at ALL.

  • @KatharinaLoos i never said she cant sing

    i said that i dont like the auto tune in it. read my comment carefully next time rook

  • i have had this stuck in my head ALL day and its so lovely to hear =)

  • well 15 people are retards... :P lol

  • @SUMM3RSN0WFL4K3 what auto tune are you hearing? o_o and if you dont like it just dont say anything at all :P

  • @SUMM3RSN0WFL4K3 ..... yea, this is SO auto tuned...

  • @JDJAKS yeah, this is so ACCOUSTIC no auto tune here, buddy

    yes, she does use autotune, but not in her accoustic songs

  • This one is better than the original version. <3

  • umm...why :|

  • i love this song soooo much i think its made it to the top ten fave songs of my life (not just of lights songs)

  • I've been listening to Rancid for the last 15 years of my life, one of my favorite bands. I've heard/seen lots of bands cover their songs and I gotta say, this is (i think) one of the best. I'm not a fan of Lights, or that style of music, but this is awesome. Good Job fellow Ontarion. (Ontario, Canada for those who don't know.)

  • this song pretty much describes the past year and a half of my life

  • Yet another great song from her. :) Keep 'em coming.

  • When she says " Ive had a bad year" it makes me feel so good idk its like the perfect song

  • @adeelies She didn't wrote it though

  • @Shteve yeah but its a good cover

  • im so happy! my friend told me that this song remind her of me!!! :D

  • I LOVE Lights <3

  • Comment removed

  • This song is fucking amaaaazing. <3

  • Hey guys i uploaded a guitar pro 5 tab. I spent like 5 hours perfecting it down to rhythm and the solo. So, guitar players, if you want to learn this song send me a message and ill toss you the link :D

  • @DBDMotorsports

    hey, I'm sort of new at guitar... only know about 5 songs; but I'd like to learn to play this! could you please send me the link? I'd really appreciate it :D

  • HOLY SHIT I LOVE HER!

  • im a big fan of rancid and punk, but i actually appreciate this cover. its not bad.

  • I LOVE THIS SONG... A LOT!!!!

  • aaahhhhh man...I love Rancid and Lights...what can I say? I appreciate all genres, from long beach punk to electronica, and everything in between.

  • she is a artist?

  • @twentyeightofjuly yes my friend. yes she is

  • I've been listening to this song nonstop since 8 am. It's now 2:30 pm.

  • this one makes me think of my friends (lol thats wat the songs about) but how they've been there for me and the Rancid version makes me wanna rock out and be awesome

  • I love Rancid and this is amazing! :D

  • I think this is soo much better than the original song by Rancid.

    Her voice and music defines innocence and purity =)

    <3 LIGHTS
