YOUTUBE NEEDS AN AUTO-REPLAY BUTTON DAMMIT!!!!

[Lars0n]

@mas6o0ol100 Try the video now and wait until the end.

[mas6o0ol100]

@Lars0n ._. How'd you do it ?

[Lars0n]

@mas6o0ol100 Pause annotation the length of 0.00.01 at the very end. Yeah I dunno how it works either.

[Azwar3]

@mas6o0ol100 youtube does not have a repeat button because it would distort views, e.g somone just leaving a video on repeat.. Also somone who has a video could just keep there own video on a loop to make it look like it has more views than it would of had otherwise. google 'youtube loop' and you will get to a site that loops youtube vids.

[Lars0n]

@Azwar3 I think the way I did the looping doesn't distort views, it seems to act the same way as pressing Play after the video has already ended.

[DoubterApe]

@mas6o0ol100 In the URL, just replace "Youtube" by "Youtuberepeater" and your videos will loop.

[johnsniper13]

Best ringtone ever !!!

[muffin8or]

Anyone for dinner at El Arroyo?

[gorion79]

"Hello, we're live. Welcome to the Atheist Experience."

[harry4657]

Wish the longer version sound more like this one....

[Anon12356]

this must be one of the top rated videos on youtube.

[IckleMcMan452]

@Anon12356 it is pretty rare to see 226 likes with no dislikes.

[highvirux]

8500+ views and no dislikes? that's pretty freaking awesome

[therosewebbb]

Goosebumps!

[Yahweigh]

Atheist Experience FTW!!!!!!!

[SjoerdvdKroon]

Atheist Experience FTW

[Vire70]

Love the song, & Love the show.

[SuckMyKeyblade]

Wow man. Absolutely amazing! Best 99 cents I've ever spent. This is the theme song to my life haha. I've never heard a song that truly captures a thinking atheistic outlook on life. Looking forward to more dude! I'm your number one fan. Btw if you don't buy the full version of this song your retarded. It's perfect from start to finish.

[TylerP224]

:D:D:D

[MinisterKGB]

ACA themesong for the win

[BadassMcAwesome1]

@Lars0n how long is the single?

[Lars0n]

@BadassMcAwesome1

Almost six minutes.

[BadassMcAwesome1]

@Lars0n AWESOME! Thanks for the quick response.

[korwinblue]

Thank god iTunes isn't the only place to buy this song. Thanks Bing!

[dycarbon1]

Loved it!

[lygonDOTnet]

@lygonDOTnet Oh, found it from cdbaby.com, costs 1.75USD there, but I don't care, they are worldwide.

Worth it.

[laflugantabastardo]

Guys, get the full track now. It is 5 minutes of kicking ASS. I'm glad Bryan has stuck close to the roots of the song, both in lyrics and in music.

Get it from cdbaby.com, because do you really want to touch iTunes with a ten foot pole? I don't.

Worth the $1.75!

[Pedroskini]

I love this song, it is awesome. That's right, we gotto get out of the delusion called religion, for the sake of this world.

[SternMann93]

This is awesome! And, wow, no thumbs down at all.

[boonw]

The full song is out, bryan said you can get it on itunes, but because I use a zune, I got it on cdbaby. I am downloading it now.

[dogofman]

Wonderful..

I want much more .... dammit!

[Tutankhamin653]

I love this song! I was singing it in my head all day :3

[ernobius]

Awesome! :D

[boonw]

new one is close to done, check bryans channel

[B4IRUTUARU16]

omg this is a fantastic song

[S00rabh]

Can I get full song..

It great!!!

[bryansteeksma]

Hey guys, LarsOn! Thanks for posting this vid. Yes, I am currently working on a new FULL version of Listen to Reason. Little tweaks here and there in the studio, and Im still arranging the parts. Its been slow going lately, but im hoping to have the song done for you guys soon. Hang in there, and thanks infinitely for your support!

Cheers

[Lars0n]

@bryansteeksma

Wow Bryan! That's excellent. I'm sure everyone will be on their toes about that song.

[Lars0n]

@Lars0n

I bought the single from iTunes a few days back and it kicks ASS! I edited the description in my video that has the TAE-intro you made to let people know that a single is out. Good job, man.

[JohnWoo]

@bryansteeksma Love the song, will be waiting for the full version. Keep up the good work!

[boonw]

@bryansteeksma

Take your time on it. This is a masterpeice, its better to wait until you have finished with a good job and have it reach its full potential rather than rush it. Looking forward to it.

[Aridcreaturehere]

@bryansteeksma Heck yeah!!!!!!!! Def looking foward to it. :)

[S00rabh]

@bryansteeksma

5stars bro..

Thanks..

[danielyeh]

@bryansteeksma

awesome!

[gagaplex]

@bryansteeksma

Yay, I can hardly wait to hear a full version of this song. :-)

[googoobh]

@bryansteeksma Great I was just going to ask if there was a longer version floating around , I just want to say really great job. How many albums do you have? Are any on CD? I find it hard to just pigeon hole you into any certain category. Kind of rock , but with progressive over tones and a bit of indie mixed in too.

[bryansteeksma]

@googoobh @googoobh I've made three albums in my career. First one was released in Canada, but I quickly stopped pushing it because I felt that I out grew the material quite fast. Second album is available on iTunes as an EP (which is NOT the full record, but a select few songs), the whole record wasn't ever released entirely due to label issues. And then there is my self released RESIDUAL SOUL + LISTEN TO REASON of which both are available on CDBABY.com and iTunes.

Thanks

[googoobh]

@bryansteeksma Thanks for the information , I will check it out. I see labels are as difficult as ever , I have known a few old groups who were signed over from independent labels to larger ones and they went through hell. It seems that the music that gets you known , isn't quite good enough to major labels and they want to muck with it and change the sound. As for not liking your early stuff , I get that. I am an artist and I deplore my older work usually. well good luck !

[Neanderthalcouzin]

@bryansteeksma I look forward to it, whenever I hear this song I wish I knew what it was, now I do. I hope you make a whole album like this, I'd pick it up for sure.

[TempleOfSin]

@bryansteeksma I'm looking forward to the track!

Bryan, are you signed yet? You want to be rich, right?:)

You're dad's a legend too, you're both great!

[bryansteeksma]

@TempleOfSin Cool man. Listen to Reason is done, and available on iTunes as well as CDBaby. how'd you hear of my dad?

[TempleOfSin]

@bryansteeksma Didn't he perform with the Twitch?

[bryansteeksma]

@TempleOfSin yeah yeah he did. haha how'd you hear about them?

[TempleOfSin]

@bryansteeksma I ah used to listen to them.:)

[lygonDOTnet]

@bryansteeksma Bought the song, but sadly, this one is better.

[bryansteeksma]

@lygonDOTnet Well, im sorry to hear you prefer this one. What exactly do you like better about this one?

Cheers

[lygonDOTnet]

@bryansteeksma Don't get me wrong, the new one is great. The things I preferred on this one are all in the vocals.

They could be clearer, they are kind of left in the background.

The notes going down on "You may be surprised, _yeah_" are better in this one, the new one is too uniform.

And the last "go-ooooh" just sound better for some reason, maybe because the scale between the notes is larger in the old one.

And finally, it sounded like you were singing with much more emotion in the old one.

[bryansteeksma]

@lygonDOTnet Thanks for the input. Theres always the chance of a remix a few years down the line ;)

Peace

[EvelioEinWindir]

@bryansteeksma

I love the recent version of your song, mate. I'm going to check out your other material as well. =D

[bryansteeksma]

@EvelioEinWindir Cheers

[ahmology]

@bryansteeksma nice song m8 greetings from egypt !! yes i am brown lol

[googoobh]

@bryansteeksma I heard the full version and it is really great ... You really fleshed it out and made it a stand alone jam. Thanks dude.

[bernlin2000]

@bryansteeksma This is a really excellent opening for the AE, they're very blessed (by you, not god!) to have it :-)

[VideoMenu]

@bernlin2000

Heh, you almost raised my hackles with that one. I'm on knee-jerk cringe mode with the B-word.

You may pass. ;)

ps. This song has old-school staying power after listening to it since last year.

[bodeezy]

I like it....looking forward to a full song but I can listen to this for a while.

[B4IRUTUARU16]

sweet song in my school they sing hyms i sing this

[LouisPlume]

Ive sent him a fb message asking if we can use it in our movie. He'd love the movie we have made.

[grindhiphop]

steeksma=frisian last name

[Shalek]

Moar.

[retnoblastoma]

Needs to be longer!

[boonw]

bryan said that he made this as a short jingle for the show, but so many people like it he is working on a full song.

[Lars0n]

@boonw

That's awesome.

[GermanChocolateCake]

@boonw Certainly hope so, sounds great.

[XSDarkMoonZX]

Key change at 0:17....EPIC.

[bozzutoman]

This is one of the coolest songs that plays in less than a minute... up there with the AXE Instinct Power of Leather song.

[bozzutoman]

Quite possible the coolest song that plays in less than a minute...

[Silvade14]

I need the lyrics!! Awesome song, but I wish it was longer.

[Checowsky]

@Silvade14 Sounds like:

Won't you listen to reason

Will you open your eyes

Its a wonder what you'll find with an open mind

You may be surprised, yeah

Gotta get away from this Illusion

For the sake of the world, this delusion

Its gotta gotta go-ooooh

yeah-ooo

Wish there was a longer version, would be kick ass.

[Lars0n]

@Checowsky

That's pretty good. I'll put it in the description.

[Checowsky]

@Lars0n I thought he said 'Solution' at one point then I realised that didn't make sense but Illusion does =)

Also theres an extra 'gotta' I missed out =D

[sakar181]

@Checowsky You missed a "gotta" ;)

[Lars0n]

@sakar181

He said that himself. "Also theres an extra 'gotta' I missed out =D"

[ikvsabre]

He (Byran) needs to make a 3-4 minute song out of this

[TempleOfSin]

As short as this is... it's one of my favourite songs, ever.

[Methodologyofmadness]

I wish it was a full song :(

[Lars0n]

@Methodologyofmadness

Indeed my friend.

[TaoriUTS]

@Methodologyofmadness i concur

[Lars0n]

@Methodologyofmadness

And it is!

[SleepyDario]

ha, so cool :]

[sera7ares]

[WaywardSonCRO]
