Straylight Run - Existentialism On Prom Night - Live On Fearless Music

[Teema]

Is it just me, or does he look a 3-d video game character :s?

[tvisforetechnoviking]

if he brought this side of him into TBS, they would be golden. it's cool to hear them rocking out again, but this would put them leagues ahead.

[Asaski09]

@tvisforetechnoviking I think this latest album was just getting the cogs grinding into motion again after being apart for 7 years. They will have perfected the sound again by the next album :)

[OriginalFanbase]

@scullydkfbi - Duh!

[inzsairis]

Michelle's so cute...

[ichewoncouches]

Great song...

[wintroller]

EMO SHIT!

[zullone]

@amandaeffingb my dear.....nice to know that but i believe you have around more guys playing music than girls....and i don t need a proof.....you know that and you prefere us than them......i am not a sexiest like people says here, i am just realistic.....and i love women as i love males....

[ladani67]

This is pure genius. Beautiful, just beautiful....

[sistergeezer89]

Hey-i don't know if this is really run by straylight run but this is amazing. Absolutely an emotional experience and I have been trying to figure out the chorus on keyboard for years lol. Thanks for creating this. I actually had a question- I would like to cover this if possible. I just started playing out. You can find the two original songs I have posted on youtube by searching. Tamra weaver. Thank you so much:)

[xinthisdiaryx]

Reminds me of her...

[jaoriprilj]

Used to think she had a reason to bitch; now see he was mad talented... F-orget her! :)

[Chrissay182]

damn the girl gets down lol love this song

[mastahace41]

i love this song, but is it just me who thinks they look super bored except for John?

[scullydkfbi]

wow. this is my favorite song, and i love this band and everything, but was he trying to sing "loud and out of key" on purpose?

[TheEvastarProject]

nice voice..hehe :))

[iirawrMandi]

I. LOVE. EVERYTHING. ABOUT. JOHN. THOMAS. NOLAN. HIS. AMAZING VOICE. AND. HIS. CHARMING. SEXY. APPEARANCE. I. JUST. LOVE. THIS. GUY.

[427gyeahyeah]

john nolan is sexy. not just by his looks but his excellent artistic way of making music and singing. wish i could meet him. :)

[monkeybutt789]

@427gyeahyeah he's suuuuuper nice in person :))

[thewackoman]

@427gyeahyeah I did! Briefly. He was very nice. TBS security got mad because I shook his hand. I don't know why that'd be a problem.

[maru89]

@thewackoman really?? what a jerk.. They were in Argentina (TBS)and walked Through buenos aires without security.. and like nothing cares. So nice guys. They signed my louder now cd and took photos with me.

[Asaski09]

@427gyeahyeah I did when he came to London at the end of last summer with TBS. Fantastic guy!

[KozySpike]

John Nolan's like a bobble head in this video.

[nbfox09]

yes, they are from tbs

[nbfox09]

yes, they are from tbs

[bramaerts]

is this john and shaun of tbs?

[ontherunhome]

@bramaerts yes

[xwakingthefallenx]

you go through life thinking music is great, but when you hear a song like this it really puts it all in perspective... If everybody on earth had the ability to sing this song, i doubt many would actually come close to "really" singing it, truely a remarkable artist.

[Dantzzz93]

John looks like an animation on a video game.

[cheerstojeff]

@zullone it's a good thing she's not playing the bass... and she sings like an angel. otherwise... it'd just be a "typical move from bands to keep it cool"... and that's just not cool.

[zullone]

the worse thing ever happen o rock music is having bassist girls...they all look the same with no personality and music skills.....is just a typical move from bands to keep it cool....just the smashing pump bassist made something good......the rests are just copies and robots

[simensays]

@zullone so both those guitars are bass, eh?

[lipatrott]

@zullone Pretty sure the girl is playing the guitar. Idiot.

[zullone]

@lipatrott ahahah.....:)......first i am not idiot but you that wrote...as i was making a joke...as she can be playing flute that no one ever noticed it.....

[lipatrott]

@zullone How does anything you tried to say sound like a joke? You should probably learn how to type sentences correctly, because nothing you said makes any sense.

[zullone]

@lipatrott sorry my english teacher wasn t that good....just to repeat she is not good and that all the band is extremely boring....he is lucky that he got back to the millionaire taking back sunday.

[heyparade]

@zullone Sexist?

[zullone]

@heyparade not sexist just aware that girls are better secretaries and lovers than musicians generally speaking.

[elguille88]

I love this song...gretings from ECUADOR!

[connorfaroni]

that he does belong back in TBS as i just saw them last week in Palm Beach at Sunfest!! Absolutly an amazing show to c them all back together....

[MyKilla666]

i fucking love straylight , but john belongs with taking back sunday 

[blahKesha4]

Jason Shaffer just tweeted and favorited this :)

[sk8tafrnk]

makes me wonder how taking back sunday ended up getting so big after nolan left

[MusicMakesPeace27]

@sk8tafrnk They sold their souls....

[sk8tafrnk]

@MusicMakesPeace27 No kidding.

[rjcartman]

@sk8tafrnk probably because Fred Mascherino is amazing as well....

[dnowitzness]

@sk8tafrnk

big thanks to fred mascherino i suppose

[zullone]

@sk8tafrnk because they had a great singer and honest players...and people love them.......when he saw the band becoming even more sucessfull once he left was a bit of a pain for him and he there it goes is back .......

[triskut]

@sk8tafrnk This band was a very good off-shoot of his talent. I love the lady in this band.

[sk8brder40]

@sk8tafrnk 'Cause Fred was a genius

[sk8tafrnk]

@sk8brder40 I don't really think Fred is a genius. I'm not saying he's a bad guitar player or a crappy music writer (the skill that is really hard to come by).

I just think he's overrated. If you know how to play guitar you know that all you need is a basic knowledge of the different keys and arpeggios to write a seemingly impressive guitar part.

[sk8brder40]

@sk8tafrnk I know how to play guitar and I have to know there is more than just basic knowledge of those things to do an impressive part. There's a lot of just plain skill when it comes down to a lot of technical riffs that requires hard work to be precise and quick. Skill that I am completely lacking in, making me jealous of fred XD.

He probably is overrated though. His other musical endeavors have been kinda sucky. He was a great fit for TBS but his poppy stuff he's been doing is just crappy

[efisher182]

So much better like this with John singing than now with adam singing it in tbs..

[AALLJJNNDDRR]

john nolan is a genious

[YourLittleAmpersand]

I love this song, even though I never went to my own prom.

[neonsinner85]

One person never went to their prom.

[ErictheSickist95]

one person was like oh.....shit i was hoping someone would back me up

[kremlindusk1987]

wow...just wow...amazing!

[MrAwesomeBrett]

while i absolutely love straylight run...at least there death wasn't in vain...we now get solo John Nolan and Destry...so we sacrificed one to get two great groups...

[JohnNMedia]

Did they break up?!

[stealingophelia]

@JohnNMedia TBS has reformed with the original line-up, so yes.

[JohnNMedia]

@stealingophelia Devastated.

[andrewtaguey]

Does his shirt say Kansas?

[shadowcat7879]

Hmmm... definitely my fave live version!!

[star0dreamer]

i hate it when great bands die out, and they're forgotten by most people like they never existed.

[DustD91]

just saying, but I don't really think being in key is the most important thing when it comes to the vocals in this song. I mean, one of the lyrics is in fact, "or loud and out of key, sing me anything."

[rattleandhumgirl]

such a perfect song to make out to

[Greendaygirl2450]

This song is beautiful how anyone could not like it is beyond me.

[SuperSaruh9907]

I remember when I first heard this song...the lyrics hit me so hard. Completely amazing, honestly. :)

[ResonateSilence]

he's kinda out of tune...

[HKmaroLS1]

@ResonateSilence

Really? Maybe he should use auto-tune and sound like the rest of the trash on the radio.

[ResonateSilence]

@HKmaroLS1 don't get me wrong, i love straylight run. he's just ridiculously out of tune at some points, and as an artist even without auto-tune or any kind of technology, he should be closer to the pitch.

[HKmaroLS1]

@ResonateSilence

Beauties in the ear of the beholder. Agree to Dis-Agree.

[ResonateSilence]

@HKmaroLS1 wait though. pitch is something that can be measured and determined as correct or incorrect. kind of like math, 2 + 2 is not going to equal 5. not saying he isn't still lovely, but put it on a tuner. out of tune is out of tune. either way though, ok. we can agree to disagree.=)

[HKmaroLS1]

@ResonateSilence

2 gallons of alcohol + 2 gallons of water don't make 4. But agreed, he is out of tune, but it only makes the song better.

[ResonateSilence]

@HKmaroLS1 haha that so doesn't make sense!!

[BryanWittKidTGS]

I still love how Michelle and John switched places for this. lol

[freaksunite5]

@BryanWittKidTGS yeah I was all like wtf? But still awesome even with the voice a bit out of tune...

[LumberjackTowson]

If I could only sing like this... Or play the piano. But I'm not John Nolan so I can't.

[soccercrazy309]

guitarist is needed if you actually listen.

also this was amazing

[andy101807]

guitarist= not needed

[RushOrbit]

that sounds like the halo 3 main screen menu music at the beginning hahaha

[royboy421]

@RushOrbit hahahahaha good call

[ryankenward]

wow them at their best, I miss those days... LOL @shaun playing a 4 string instead of his typical 5

[sophos34]

RIP straylight run. love this song.

[SteveC515]

@sophos34 but long live taking back sunday. saw them in nyc and they play this. sooo good

[sophos34]

@SteveC515 saw the video of it from the jersey show i think it was, adam sang it incredibly. 

[sacruz1984]

@sophos34 they broke up?

[sophos34]

@sacruz1984 indefinite hiatus. 

[LOKIUNCIA]

Damn... That's Good.

[ORIGAMERANTON]

Great song

[zadetiodmuske]

when was this recorded? i love them

[Jordan123x]

such a good song.
