  • Kevin Matisyn is my favorite lyricist making music today. Vocally he's right there, for me at least, with Maynard James Keenan. The new "Evans Blue" can blow me.

  • Waooo nice voice man.. U can make fet. With Aarin from staind..

  • Wow. I love the guy's voice, and the arrangements. The guitar is awesome, and so's the piano.

  • His voice set this band apart from all others in a great way. The new guy is also a good singer...but so was my highschool chior teacher....singing good doesn't mean shit.....its the passion you put behind the voice....what the band used to have and lacks without Kevin.

  • Solid! Miss you Kev!

  • What is the introsong? (0:00 - 0:18) ?

  • oh come on guys Dan is great. stop bitching cuz he's just as good as Kevin

  • @Wizerslapski - I almost just threw up over how flawed and stupid this post is.

  • @newskin0927 so your saying Dan isnt as good as kevin? well stop bitchin cuz kevins gone. accept it. learn to like it or shut up

  • im always happy to listen to acoustic covers. this ones pretty damn awesome :)

  • Dyslexia - 0:44 and 4:36

  • 0:44 (Stop And Say You Love Me) and 3:46 (Cold [But I'm Still Here]) - Figured it might help for replays.

  • Ok every body get off of Kevin. You sound like a bunch of bieber loving homos. Dan and Kevin are both great singers. You all hate Dan just cuz he replaced Kevin. Who wouldn't do the same if you had that opportunity? They both have their own bands and both rock out hard. So stop b******g and enjoy what we have.

  • No one can replace his vox! Kev is missed, Parabelle is the band to listen to now ;)

  • i hate when bands try to bring a new lead singer, a band isn't a band without it's original lead singer. Not dissing on instrumentalists at all but an instrument can make the same sounds as others, but someone's voice can't change.

  • @ddrX69GIGTIT so true

  • Here is something you will never see from new eb performances like this , because it highlights the vocalist strength. They know he has a great voice...... End of story Kevin Matisyn now of Parabelle has the better voice. new guy can't even compare. You guys are just mainstream ball suckers!!!!!!!

  • The unplugged melody was an amazing album!

  • I like new singer better. But old one was good too

  • damn why!? why he is gone! just great performance

  • i agree the lead singer did they special and awesome! now they just sounds like alot of other bands....

  • band will not be the same without him!!!! im switchin to parabella

  • i think i like the accoustic better then the original version

  • Amazing voice.

  • It's kind of bullshit cause he wrote all the lyrics and came up iwith the name that has to do with a blue dye used to track blood in your veins. then they kicked him out cause he wanted to go a diffrent way artistically vocally, etc. but i expect great things from this new band parabelle. don't get me wrong the new singer is good but the least they could've done is let him take the band name with him. so I'm done with evans blue, and ready for parabelle.

  • @blkmarket666 actually he got voted out for bad money decisions but i think thats just bullshit because of kicking him out was a bad idea but the new singer is also good :) but i like kevin more

  • kevin plays for parabelle now

  • I love this song!!!

  • yeah found the new evans blue album yesterday...only decent song was bulletproof and, well its just not the same. and the lead singer cant hit a damn note live. i dont even think they should have been allowed to keep the name considering in was Kevin who chose it! they seem like a bunch of posers now...the songs used to be so much deeper and meaningful...

  • @f91843 are you fucking with me ? Evans blue - erase my scars, is a song which is dedicated and wrote about the new lead singers nephew who passed away a few years ago so correct me if I'm wrong but you don't get much meaningful and deep than that when you sing a song dedicated to a lost family member, so don't accuse them of posing.

  • yeah found the new evans blue album yesterday...only decent song was bulletproof and, well its just not the same. and the lead singer cant hit a damn note live. i dont even think they should have been allowed to keep the name considering in was Kevin who chose it! they seem like a bunch of posers now...

  • Comment removed

  • Is this played in the same tuning as the album?

  • This song is fuckin beautiful.

  • What happened to the vocalist?

  • @poopyscoopy5 He´s kicked out the band!

  • Pretty nice

  • awesome!!! One of the best acoustic sets I have seen

  • over acoustic live arghhhhhhhhhhhh help

  • Two great songs they are better acoustic then on album i think...but love evans blue wish Kevin didn't leave, it hurt their new album i think

  • @Cinci98 i think it hurt they're new album having Kevin leave as well...it's just not the same

  • I keep hearing about that mp4ify site. where can i find it? rips audio and video from any youtube clip to mp3 or mp4 files?

  • no one knows a link where I can hear Dark That Follows acoustic version?? please!!

  • I have it on my itunes I could send it to you

  • @Ridfaderz ... I was looking for the same link.. Anyone know?

  • 6:44 "the more you 'FLERN' away" haha good song I just thought that part was funny ^_^

  • Kevin's amazing and his new band Parabelle is even better than Evans Blue!

  • One of the deepest lyricists that ive actually grown attached too. Then leaves the band. as if they were a basement band or something. :( very disappointing.

  • He was voted out of the band for bad management decisions or something

  • @Chodenberg- From what I heard, they kicked him out. If that's true, that's just weak.

  • Love it! These guys just aren't the same without Kevin.

  • check Kevin Matisyn its the singer , not with evans blue any more!!

  • plz give me a thumbs up but awsom!

  • What a voice

  • Awesome. I wish I owned the DVD.

  • Ha, i had it, then i moved & misplaced it somewhere. to this day i think i might know where it is but its never where i check.

    This unplugged had deep value and it is no more.

    thank you copyrighters. lol :?/

  • amazing voice...these guys will be heading to peoples favorite list one by one

  • Man that dude is such a good vocalist i love this video

  • They threw him out =(

  • @Franky6160 i agree with you hes awesome

  • @Franky6160 I didn't realize he talked so deep too, that dude has a hell of a vocal range

  • I like the ending..after 8:32

  • The second song is cold

  • Listen to the whole video genius, Cold is at the end...

  • they play both dude

  • I like them live over the studio recordings

  • I Loveee his new band XD

    Parabelle is better then Evans Blue in my opinion ^-^;

  • Well look at him

  • I just recently discovered this band, and I love these songs... it sucks that Kevin was kicked out.

  • it's sound's awesome live:X

  • the new singer is really good... check out their new song on their myspace... but it won't be the same without Kevin... he's fuckin awesome

  • yeah, miss kevin, but their new song sick of it is pretty badass

  • whose that girls singing?

  • @Aprilia101 find out who she is yet? i'd like to know who the girl is singing too *-*

  • fukin awesome live,great band

  • GOOD MUSIC is not a forcefed established product... Therfore when creative minds can't agree its time to move on.. I wish Evans Blue didn't split but I understand how others have to go seperate ways.. I had a g/f and everyone thought we were a great couple... Sadly we couldn't hold things together

  • this is all the song that made cold im still here

  • I CANT BELIEVE THEY REPLACE THE LEAD SINGER!!!! his voice is what made evans blue, evans blue!!!!

  • I think Evan's Blue shot themselves in the foot when they did this

  • exactly, with chandler...there just another hard rock band imo

  • yeah, they might as well change the band name. but i dont think they'd want that cause it would be like starting all over. plus PARABELLE is going to be awesome with kevin!

  • yeah, especially since kevin started/named the band : /

    havnt heard them yet, but yeah, i know he'll make great music no matter what band he's in

  • absolutely! :)

  • i think ill go check em out

    yeay, kevin all the personality in the band (the new guys voice is just dull) i did a funll cover of the song cold, but none of my friends or i could sing like him

  • you just have no idea what good music is and its emo ass

  • @starfish118  i agree with you totaly

  • @starfish118 wait wtf!?

  • @starfish118 he left them to play with parabelle is my understanding. The new lead singer is not that bad either

  • @starfish118 2 bad Kevin was the biggest asshole in the world...

    Id kick him out also.

  • @starfish118 I can't believe the new singer's voice is so close to the last guy.

  • @starfish118 I totally agree with you. They suck now.

  • Amazing.

  • GUYS THIS IS AWESOME  .....

  • Music and his voice is amazing!!!

    Keep it up

  • evans blue's music means the world to me and others, so play loud, play proudly and play loud

  • Great group, killer tune, great video! Not sure which is better, "acoustic or studio/commercial mix"---I lean more towards this acoustic version, but 'both' are great!!

  • i love this band great music with great voice.

  • too bad you wont be hearing that voice with Evans Blue anylonger. Check out the band Parabelle, it has Kevin Matisyn (the former singer of Evans Blue) as well as a former guitarist from Framing Hanley. They are pretty damn good, especially if you are a fan of Matisyn.

  • damn man i had no idea. yea i liked some of framing hanley. thanks man ill check parabelle out

  • so r Evans Blue not together anymore????

  • evans blue are together, but matisyn (the former lead singer) was kicked out. so i really dont think they will ever be the same

  • kevin made them, framing hanley isnt half bad either i def have to check out parabelle

  • greateeeeee voice!!

  • Kevin, Evans Blue will never be the same without you. Please work out your differences and return to them.

    Saw you guys at a smaller set in STL and got all of your autographs and a t-shirt and CD. You're all great and I hope that you come back.

  • If Kevin doesn't return for anymore albums, this band is done for. He is the heart and soul and his voice fits the lyrics and style of their music.

  • Holy crap Evans Blue is so amazing. Cold is fucking super!

    Wait what? Who quit the band? Kevin? I knew someone quit but I didn't know it was him. How can a band replace the singer? Gah...

  • he didn't actually quit, the other members voted him out.

  • oh! dang! Was he being a dick or why? Dang... that's rather sad. Gah

  • on the myspace site, the other band members sad he wasn't making good decisions for the band as a whole. I didn't get it, but ah well.

  • Wow, he must have been doing things that the band really didn't agree with. Maybe the decisions he's making kind of hampered the bands progress...

    Meh...

  • In response to stinkfist, he's not the singer again, they just never update the official site.

  • he doesnt sound like thats him..

    but its so great..

    &..&..

    just so awesome

  • Amazing vocals.

  • I'm so addicted to this video...I've watched it like 50 times...no lie.

  • i know its so durable for me its the perfect song no lie

  • Great Band Good Lyrics!!!!

  • The official Evans Blue website lists Kevin as being the vocalist again.

  • no way r u for real....i hope so man.....kevin is the best vocalist i ever heard ....i hope he is for sure

  • sure thing to that ...he is "THE SINGER"almost a god.heh..8-D

  • I don't know how this band is going to fair without this lead singer. He's the sound of this band.

  • listen to that shit thats pure soul bring on his next bad relationship

  • ok i agree i hate emo bitches but what she said didnt make her emo its called musical influence music like this is supposed to help people look at things in a different light its supposed to make you feel a certain way its not just there to be there dumbass he writes these songs not only for himself but to help others and he did his and congrats to the girl that let music influence you aaron lewis is my hero

  • too bad they kicked this singer out..

  • THEY DID! NO!

  • too bad is right, he had an amazing voice

  • amazing

  • wish you knew how many times your music pulled me back from the edge. if you only knew. thank you more than i could ever say.

  • You should try to step away from the fad of trying to make fun of people for their style of music. Silly dumbasses.

  • im not making fun of their style of music. i like evans blue. im making fun of the fact that she is an emo bitch that gets "close to the edge" and im telling her to stop listening to it this way she would push herself over. one less emo bitch = better place.

  • tsin straight up immaturity but its ok i guess your too busy saying ignorant things

  • What was so ignorant about my comment? I can agree with the immaturity, but I think "your" ignorance of the word ignorant is far stronger than my interpretation of what she meant.

  • ignorant- lacking knowledge or comprehension of the thing specified

    you know nothing of her life and/or what she has been through so think about things before you sound like that

  • I am a very harsh critic however, the music, the voice, the band, and the ability to make you want to listen over and over again.... makes me a growing fan. Thanks for the good music!

  • If you listen to the lyrics you would know know that this band is nothing like Tool! Voice or style.

  • You don't have to sound like anyone but yourself Kevin and I love the voice God gave you...

  • Kevin matisyn is an awesome song writer.That's all I gotta say....

  • I agree, but technically he didn't write the songs. :/

    *goes back into fangirl mode*

  • peanut

  • Ok, for you kiddies that won't stop arguing about Tool... Shoot yourself in the head please. Is this a Tool video? No. This is Evans Blue, and you obviously chose this video to listen to their music. So quit nabbing and enjoy the music, if not just stop complaining.

  • see the premise to TMATENOV is that it's a whole relationship from beginning to to end..emotions and all....

    as for TPBWTPOLE....its more different and i love the difference

    both cds are fab and matisyn is a lyrical genius....

  • if you like these guy's you'd like 10 years

  • Lol Evans blue is way more talented than tool ever was or still is. Kevin Matisyn is a musical mastermind.

  • Fuck that, and if your gonna try and shove you opinnion down my throat then Fuck you to.

    They are completly diffrent and not to be compared.

  • Nobody better be trying to shove something down your throat.

    IT'S ALL MINE. <3

  • Ha Ha.......yeah sure man:)Every song Evan's Blue does is about a lost relationship......Tool has more intelligence,depth,& musicianship in a half a song than EB does in this entire album.I like them but if u think they're more skilled musicians than Tool,then u can't possibly be a musician-

  • dude you suck - dont even go there, question EBs musicianship as well as our own. :|

  • Sure....I like them,I just don't let me liking them get in the way of my musical knowledge.There's nothing to question.....I KNOW!

  • You don't know crappppp.

  • what songs are on the dvd? is it the whole album? i'm trying to find it

  • the whole album

  • Evans Blue Album Name -The Pursuit Begins When This Portrayal Of Life Ends. Unplugged Performance comes w/ their lates album. its a double disk.

I CAPS'd my Fav's.
  • Where can i find it??? I NEED IT! SELL ME A BURNT COPY WHAT EVER I CANT FIND IT!! PLEASE HELP ME!!

  • where can i get the complete unplugged????? this is amazing!!!! please let me know!!!

  • fav band

  • the singer reminds me of my youth pastor

  • This is a good video.. check out Bed by them at Buzzfest.. its fucken amazing..

  • Kevin Matisyn is the best male singer in the world. Rock on Kevin! THANKS FOR THE VIDS!

  • Ive never thought that about them, and I am fans of both bands, not at all man...

  • Is the guy below serious???I really like these guys,but let's start with the 1st tune they play here:"Stop & Say that You Love Me,the verse riff is totally lifted from the Tool song "46&2" if someone can't hear that then they don't know much about music.However,I still like these guys,but you nailed it man,there WAY influenced by Tool,& if someone is bashing your comment then they don't have their ears open.PERIOD!

  • I don't see how you can say they sound like Tool.... In any way

  • Are u serious??? Listen, I'm a big fan of both bands & they don't sound exactly like Tool, but they do borrow HEAVILY from what Tool does, & furthermore they completely stole a riff from the Tool song "46 & 2"!!!That's enough for me......& let's not forget the singer doing his best Maynard impression.However, Maynard's my favorite singer ever, & I think Kevin Matisyn is really an incredible singer.Trust me, these guys wish more than anything they could be Tool-

  • not even in the same tuning as 46 and 2, im a tool fan myself and i dont sound anything like maynard, nor do i try to, thats the facts, cant bitch about the voice god gave me, peace

  • Hard 2 imagine I'm getting a reply from KM,especially considering ur success & the likelyhood that my opinion means nothing 2 u,but if it is really u,cool.I'm not hating,I think u guys r really talented especially amidst the muck of GARBAGE post-grunge bands that dominate new rock.U however do sound similar to MJK.Ur type of singing style derived from the early 90's vocals of Vedder,Layne,MJK,etc.Also,u can write the exact same riff in say DropB as oppose to DropD,it would still be the same riff

  • Also BTW,I was looking through some of ur other YouTube vids of different songs & I saw 3 other people who all made similar comments regarding u sounding similar to a young Maynard.I realize ur yourself,of course every1's voice has it's own subtle unique inflection,& I'm also a singer & I get the Maynard thing all the time too,it wasn't meant as a dig,hell it's actually a huge compliment,I personally think Maynard's the best "rock" vocalist ever so it shouldn't have came out in a negative way-

  • Your voice would never be something for anyone to bitch about. Especially since it sounds so amazing.....it is just so prefect...and im glad you use it to sing such amazing and deep music.....

  • i think its nearly impossible to play music today w/out over treading or duplicating another bands trademark tunage. It happens to even the best. stop gripin & enjoy the tunes.

  • Evans blue \m/ :D Rock on!

  • ive been all this time looking for who would sing this song.and i finally found them their a great band I LOVE EVANSBLUE

  • there better acoustic...

  • great voice. rock on!

  • awesome!!!!!
