  • they could of done better......

  • disappointing, man Scooter sounds crappy here.

  • @GarrettLD50 that brought me here, I can only assume its on vevo and not showing up cause im on mobile. I guess I was meaning to ask if anyone had it on their channel.

  • Does anyone know where I can find the acual music video?

  • @smokeordieganja search it in the search box?

  • Sooo shit live....reason why he is singing off key is because he cant sing or hold notes.

  • He didn't wrote the song, their productors give them the song

  • @klashy80 The verse lyrics and opening/chorus guitar riff were then written by Rivers Cuomo of Weezer.

  • @GarrettLD50 I mean It's not a Cold song...

    (I like the album version -the lives suck...- but everytime I listen the song I know Scooter didn't like it)

  • hahahaha LoL at the mosh pit

  • Why the hell did he sing it so off-key? It sounds awful :(

  • I thought he sang it well...

  • You guy's are obviosly not musicians.

  • oh god LOL bad performance

  • dude, Shut Up !  Chaos Club !

  • Scooter hates the song. Kind of hard to enjoy playing something you don't like.

  • @iMxSyNdiiCaTe Why would he write a song he hates to sing? It's definately not one of my favs from COLD, though

  • i dont know if its because i can barely hear his voice...but this is terrible

  • This is a garbage performance, but i saw them like 2 nights ago and they were amazing

  • Not all bands are good live, simple as that. anyone got the actual music video? That version is beastly.

  • that was bad.

  • horrible

  • @Tryptonique who gives fuck? not people in crowd. you sit on computer, you give fuck. people in crowd just listen because they live in moment, and you live in basement. if you in crowd and you go "booo" no one hear you. you just ass-face. -Confucius

  • Comment removed

  • @Tryptonique You need to get your ears checked...It's a half step down...In tune...

  • This is fucking horrible. I'm at a loss of words.

  • @Chubzdoomer Dude i love their albums but this is the worst perfomance.!

  • Wow! Why would you purposely fuck up the only song you're known for and do it on TV like that? If you don't like the song then don't record it. If they really did just do it for their record label that's sad. That just reeks of sell out. Maybe the record label wanted to actually make money off these guys so they gave them a song. LOL the only song they are known for by most people and they didn't even write it and throw a bitch fit and fuck it up on purpose while performing it. LMFAO

  • @BiggieB31558 You pretty much said it all there. It seems the record company threw this out as the single to sell records, people bought them. So they paraded the band out there with this song, which, as you can imagine, they soon got sick of.  Too bad, good band with so many other great tunes. Drugs didn't help either.

  • his vocals sound bad because hes trying to sing a little of everything> the band can't sing harmonies!!!

  • he hates to sing this song

  • @sentient02970 Then why did he record it? That just doesn't make any sense.

  • this song sounds pretty good live actually just cus everyone wants shit to sound just like the records when u here a record its not just the band its also the producers vision of how he wants it to sound i think its classic cold its so dark and has that spooky depressed sound live shows bring out the real creativity of band

  • Wow, this sucks live.

  • im in shock as to how shitty the vox are, i cant believe it. How in the hell are they famous?

  • I looooove COLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • They sound really bad live on this video but i know they're better Maybe They Just Had A COLD!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHA

  • Vocals suck!

  • the poor dude looks like he i gonna pass out

  • Not my favorite song of theirs, but I think they performed it quite well live.

  • the only song scooter didnt write:) I agree with u

  • rocker video is fuckin great

  • @VicePower I think he did it because his sister had cancer, so he shaved his head to show respect to her....if you know what I mean. and uhhh, you said you seen interviews from the debut album???!!! Where the hell did you find those? (completely off subject I know, but thats like super-mega-ultra-rare)

  • i love this song but the first verse sounded terrible. scooter pulled it together by the chorus though.

  • @ wemadegod - Scooter himself has said that in many, many interviews as well as in person. They wrote the song to appease record label executives.

  • this is prob their one song i dont care for. over played on the radio in southern wisconsin. the only song they ever played by Cold

  • @ wemadegod - you DO realize the band HATE this song? Might be one of the reasons they almost always do this song shitty live.

  • @xxwordsmithxx where did you hear that? not being a prick. just wondering

  • what said the terry s sticker?

  • Cold is on tour right now with nonpoint so I don't know how you figure they don't do music anymore!

  • hey Cold doesn't make music anymore which sucks so if you like cold or the band Hurt please listen to my song and tell me if you like it or how much you hate it thanks.

  • Cold is putting out a new ablum this year

  • hey twatwaffle......Cold is coming out with a new album called Epic within the next 3 months and then they will be releasing an acoustic album later in the year

  • love it!!!!!!!!!

  • i love how scooters mic stand is taller than himself...not tooo bad..

  • they dont suck live its just stupid girl for some reason cos all the vids on yu tube at hard rock or whateva are really good

  • The only band i saw live (and sounding good) on Kimmel is Sum41... I hate them but i've never seen any other band sounding good on that show...

  • thats wierd, cold is the first band i've seen so far that sounds horrible on kimmel. Finch, Paramore, Slipknot even bullet for my valentine have good kimmel live videos

  • Hey now! I think they aren't THAT bad live.

    They put a lot of heart into their performances.

    That makes up for it. :D

  • haha. laughed the whole time, guitar are off time and out of tune. The singer (i shouldent even say anything). it looks like there trying to be horrible. the singer cant even move around hes having so much trouble.

  • wtf.... now i know why you dont here about them anymore

  • I do not know why but I think there is always a problem with their live performance. It could be about their sound mixing. It always sounds weird.

  • everybody here dissin cold, FUCK YOU

  • they suck live. But this song rocks. But they suck live.

  • i agree alot.

  • OMG you obviously haven't been to one of their live shows.

  • I dont have to. All I have to do is press play.

  • I remember Scooter saying in an interview that he hates how Stupid Girl is their most popular song because the lyrics were written by the dude from Weezer.

    I can imagine that he bombed this song intentionally so that people don't like them for just Stupid Girl.

  • wow

    one of the worst live performances i've ever seen

    the singer had it all wrong

  • this is horseshit... they need practice or something

  • this sucks...

  • what dumbass back up singer..get a new one!

  • What is wrong with Scooter? :( He is totally off at some points in the song. The album tracks are so well put together, but live, the vibe is different. I guess it's a tough task to beat something that is already nearly perfect.

  • always a good chance Scoot is flyin hi on the big stuff. He's had his issues with heroine.

  • Ugh... I totally didn't know that.

    It's strange that his sister had some drug problems as well. But him also getting into drugs... :/

    Makes me feel bad for him.

  • i really like them and this is the first live performance ive seen by them and i am NOT impressed... i guess ill keep looking into more live performances... maybe they just hada off night....

  • i agree, they blow live

  • Go and die all of you that says that they are bad live! THIS song is bad live, I can agree with you, but have you heard "Gone Away" live? Or "Suffocate", "Cure My Tragedy"?! They are great both live and on album!

  • they suck live :A im shocked , i love this band :(

  • are two of the guitars tuned differently? i love cold but scooters voice was off and sumn in the gtars sounded off

  • yah, the guitars were out of tune, not to mention out of time, no worries though, they were probaly on acid or something.

  • gsolinas10

    What you said is not true at all... Bands use their own equipment when playing tv shows.. the reason they usually sound bad is simply because it is very hard to make a good mix for live broadcast.. I highly doubt the jimmy Kimmel show has a guitar lying around that has a spider on it (just like the artwork for Cold) and an Ibanez guitar (just like the guitar players guitar also used by MUNKY IN KORN)...

  • haha... The singer has seen way too many Linkin Park/ Staind videos and one of the guitar players seems to be in love with Munky from Korn.... so funny people like this shit.. What ever happened to originality being what made a band cool? Anyone who can't see through this shouldn't listen to music...what crap

  • the singer...Scooter Ward and Aaron Lewis (staind) are very close friends.

  • i was thinking the same thing a few minutes ago. they both move like snails onstage too.

  • i am a huge cold fan..and seen them 3 times...i love them but this deffinatly isn't thier best....

  • i like this version, it sounds really angry...it pumps me up but recently they sounded smoother so i know what you mean

  • I saw them live and they were a lot better than this but you can't blame them. Bands rarely sound good on shows like this or SNL, Late Show, etc. because they are stuck using whatever the house equipment is that day. When they use their gear it's a different show...trust me.

  • I'm a new COLD fan and I've been watching live performances by them and this is an awesome performance in my opinion

  • why is everybody saying that this is a horrible performance!? Seriously, they are an awesome band and this wasn't even a very bad performance! You can't say that COLD is horrible just because of 1 bad performance that is still amazingly awesome. So quit dissing them! They're an awesome band with great music! GET OVER IT!

  • worst performance of them by far

  • if everyone based their opinion of a band cause one bad performance than no one would listen to music cause every band has had at least one bad performace. these guys kick ass hands down so back the f**k off of them

  • He might have been tired as shit or sick or something.still badass.i wouldnt down this band due to one bad performance

  • terrible

  • heh....nu metal is funny...

  • This guy "kw12389" is so full of SHIT... dude is obvious you don't know bout music..COLD is one of the best bands in the latest 10 years...now, all bands in this world..i mean ALL ..were involved on shity perfomances... sometimes the tunning fails, the sound fails e.t.c, and is obvius that time on tv is restricted, so many times the show must go on... SHIT HAPPENS.. is not fair that some asshole like you bastard say that COLD is not a talented band...SHIT MEN better shit your hole!!!!

  • god that was so lame i liked them when i bwas like nine but that was shit

  • i agree that sometimes the tech guy messes up. i work for a tech crew and they always make it sound incredible. but if the talent sucks, than the tech guy can only do so much. i like cold but this was bad...singers fault.

  • yea his singin was shitty...they're my fav band but what the fuck lol

  • people with no talent do not deserve time on tv

  • u fucken faggot this cunt has more talent in his little finger than ur entire body

  • ur a dumbfuck, listen to their first album.

  • ouch...

  • wtf.

  • ehh bands always have their good performences and there bad performences it happens

  • lame there is a soundtrack in the background ;/

  • que fea voz, hasta el culo

  • WTF happened?

    Its....horrible....I love Cold, but this is there worse live performance, EVER....

    I think the sound guy Fucked up, but I'm not sure.....

  • I love Scooter to death but DAMN... you sang like shit in this performance.....

  • Something was terribly wrong here, someone was playing something way out of tune or something. I cant even pin it down, sounds like the bass in the chorus during the "whats wrong with my life to-day" when he changes notes on the word Life. Bad

  • I agree, its almost like someone was playing the wrong note or something, or maybe had a string or two out of tune...its really weird.

  • whats wrong with all you fags!? this sound's just fine to me. no band sounds as good live as they do in there album.

  • you are completely wrong. There are numerous bands that sound just as good if not better live

  • lol whooda thunk it mosh pit on jimmy kimmel

  • ...whats with all the hate on this performance? it sounds great to me.

  • love this song scooter is hot, even thought rivers cuomo write most of the lyrics. is cold getting back together. is scooter putting out a solo l-p

  • Scooter wrote all their songs except for Stupid Girl which I saw him say they rarely played in concert because he didn't write it.

  • ANGRY SCOTTER

  • wtf it´s soo horrible the video is better =[

  • I think this is just a particularly bad performance. But beleive me, Cold is great live. Watch the live vids for Suffocate or Cure my Tragedy. He does much better with those songs.

  • you know what? you guys need to chill with the neg comments, you guys go record an album, go out in front of a crowd and try to keep pitch. scooter keeps it going great, just cause it doesnt sound JUST LIKE THE ALBUM doesnt mean shit. you guys are a bunch of haters.

  • Wow, uh wtf happened to his voice apparently HuNgLiKeMoOsE is right, horrible, fucking horrible

  • it is because of touring he has trouble keeping his voice in check plus his lifestyle wasn't the best hehe

  • i think they jst suck live.. idk why.. wheres all that perfect pitch and emotion? watever.. the cds are fantastic..

  • they do great on all their other songs but they just suck vocally on stupid girl,why!?!?!

  • It's kind of a different style from some of their other stuff, i heard like weezer helped them with it or somethin so..

  • i like the way this live version sounds just my opinion.

  • beautiful job musically.

    vocals were BAD

  • @nchudson87

    They hate playing this song live is why. I think thats stupid but he makes sure he sucks extra.

  • @nchudson87 i couldnt agree more

  • @nchudson87 Scooter's vocals are at times shaky because he does so much screaming in some songs. Kurt Cobain and Shaun Morgan are just the same, but I think the vocals like that are good because it shows they're really singing and not just lipsyncing to a pre-recorded vocal track like most people on radio today.

  • @nchudson87 id like to see you sing on speed lol

  • OMG they are fucking horrible

  • wow.... studio band entirely

  • *Because* *General*

    Go back to school.

  • people want to know why he doesn't sound the same? its because the lead singer/ guitar player to weezer harmonized with him on the chorus. little known fact for everybody.

  • Troll.

  • If it's so awful, why are you watching the video and commenting on it? Wouldn't your time be better served watching videos you enjoy?

  • what in the living hell is this, this is awful

  • why do people like to fool themselves? I like this band, got the year of the spider and love all the songs in it but the TRUTH is : I have never seen ANY live performance where scooter delivers. He sings crappy live, PERIOD. plus, if you can't do it live don't record the song with high notes. Now, using PLAYBACK backing vocals live NOT SYNCHED is a no-no.

    Still love them.

  • what songs have you seen him sing live cause some of the ones ive heard are great better then the studio versions

  • mayb its just me but i dont think its that bad its different than the studio but not horrible

  • lol,scooter has to tiptoe to the mike....

  • I dont think he means to hide. The mic was set a wee high for him

  • he is so wasted

  • this is so bad. i dont understand how there are so many people who are into this. he says vlai instead of i. he hides behind the mike. the song is so horrible.

  • Okay,well,I have done some research on live performances of this song.The lead singer is not singing it bad,it's actually the way he sings it in the song (backup vocals do the high parts) the only reason it sounds bad,is the Backup Vocals are not that high Live,so you can barely hear them.Case solved.

  • that's poop. but i love a bit of cold.

  • sounds like shit compared to studio music!!

  • didnt Terry Balsamo go to Evanescense??

     what a waste.

  • lol he did

    awhile ago actually

    there have been reports he mite go back to cold of the 09 reunion but that have been denied

    i know hes gonna write with limp bizket on the side but said he has no plans on leavin evanescence

    but than again he said that about cold also

  • his ex fiancee is probably regreting leaving him cus hes all famous now. His first album was Pretty Wicked about her...Imagine Serial Killer, Probably written for her..I like being wicked too.

  • too bad they didn't do this song when i saw them live-sucked!

  • This is my favorite well one of my favorite bands

  • dude this live version sucks ass.

    his recording singing in this song is MUCH BETTER!

  • try to see*

  • what is this song about?

  • can't u try see the meaning of the lyrics? dude... this song is about the girls who don't give a fuck to you, the girls who just play with your feelings, they talk about this on the video of this song...

  • I HATE GIRLS LIKE THAT. fucking bitches.

  • yeah brow... these bitches will pay someday, they'll find someone who gonna fuck with her feelings!

  • yeah, they got it coming. COLD RULES!

  • yea this song was wrote to his ex fiancee

  • No it wasn't because Scooter didn't even write it.

  • I saw Cold live about a month before they announced the break up, and they were awesome. In my opinion, this wasn't their best performance, but it had nothing to do with Scooter being "junked up" or the band splitting up. Scooter has said in many interviews and online posts that the band hates playing this song. It is part of the reason they left Atlantic Records. Do some research before you make ignorant assuptions.

  • why do they hate it?? it's an amazing song.. =S

  • Scooter hates it bc he didn't write it. Rivers from Weezer did.

  • I had always thought this song had a strong Weezer feel too it when I didn't know that Cuomo wrote.

  • oh no...scooter is my second fav. vocalist of all time(mike patton rules) but this wasnt their best performance!....wasn't he really junked out about this time?...LONG LIVE SCOOTER WARD!!!!..

  • At this point, they were on their way out, so they probably didn't care. I've seen Scooter sing live, and believe me, he's sung MUCH BETTER than this. He probably had lost the motivation to sing, seeing as his band was about to break up.

  • o wow the lead singer isnt very good live although hes better than the band and singer behind our house and across the street they really really suck!
