  • Why is this song so impossible to find?! I try buying it legally and I can't find it ANYWHERE. It took me like an hour to find ANY trace of it at all!

  • the chorus is my alarm ringtone, this is what welcomes me back to earth every morning. <3

  • not gunna lie, at first i thought this was comparing drummers. did they switch dummers as well?

    

  • what album was this on?

  • what does the lyrics mean? i mean: i you keep asking me i melt away in summer air? i really dont get that

  • Greens Version is so much better.

  • anthony green is the best vocalist for Saosin

  • @faiz10march No, he's better in Circa Survive, way better. I love Saosin (When anthony was in it) But I love Circa Survive more.

  • @xxsk83rxx13 yes I knew that he was out of Saosin because he's not comfortable with the band, or maybe with their music. now he finds a suitable place, Circa Survive.

  • emotion is the main difference imo, anthony green sounds so desperate its beautiful

  • (continued)... The bandits agreed with my friend. Anthony was much better than Owens. Anthony has one of the most unique voices in music. He hits highs in such a perfect ratio of rasp:clean. Circa is nasty. Cove = garbage.

  • @xeulogyforherx I prefer Cove over Tilian Pearson, Tilian has a girl voice just listen to "Not My Love 2". Cove will never be better than Anthony but Cove is somewhat near his style because Cove is more mellow, Tilian in the other hand sounds like a girl getting raped. I would love Anthony only to be back with Saosin, Cove ehh he can fill the spot for now and Owens does suck but Cove was a better replacement for Saosin, Owens was a horrible replacement.

  • @Tjpbeatles92 Cove sucks. Its all vocal filtration doing the job. Saosin should get the doood from Tides of Man. That guy is spot-on live. (thanks 2012Frank) Saosin with Cove was almost as bad as the entire birth of Craig Owens. rX Bandits (sounds of animals fighting) even made a comment about it when they came around to the webster, CT when my buddy Alex asked them if they liked owens' vox (this was after he left sounds of animals) and they agreed w/ him when he relayed his opinion: anthony i

  • Where is my home !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • If you keep asking me ill melt away in the summer aiiiirrr... <3

  • Cove sounds so fake, like if he can't hit the notes Anthony hit. so the tried to fix it with auto tune, but you can hear it. nasty

  • You all know Cove left the band right?

  • So it's settled by this video. Cove Reber is better than Anthony Green. Green has a whiny nasal voice while Cove has a smoother and most significantly has a voice that actually complements the songs. Anthony Green has a few OK songs with Circa Survive but that's it. I have no idea what all this controversy is for. Anyone who isn't tone deaf or deaf in general could see it.

  • @Tjpbeatles92 Anthony Green is better, Cove is singing Anthony's lyrics his voice is okay but Anthony Green is original and he Anthony will most of the time be preferred

  • @2012franko Sure it's Anthony's lyrics but it doesn't make him the better vocalist. Bob Dylan has a shitty voice but look at how he can have good lyrics. At least Cove doesn't sound like someone is abusing his groin with a sledgehammer

  • @Tjpbeatles92 that was back then when Anthony was young & he doesn't need auto tune like Cove, Coves voice is auto tune thats why his music sounds good on CDs & Mp3s but live its a totally different story Anthonys voice is natural Cove live always needs help from the band singing you might think that his voice is horrible but there's a reason why Anthony in Saosin, The Sound of Animals Fighting, Audience of One, Jeer at Rome, High and Driving, and Zolof the Rock and Roll Destroyer

  • I cant understand what either of them are saying..

  • The version with cove should've been with anthony green just sayin! Anthony green is way better

  • This song is equal their both great singers in this song

  • can anyone tell me what this song is about?

  • Comment removed

  • "If you keep asking me i'll melt away in the summer air!!"

  • can anyone tell if these lyrics are right? For example the part that goes "if only I had the strength blah blah blah" sounds like something different to me. help?

  • @jorganbon I'm not entirely sure either (I think the different verses might change it) but here are some other possibilities I've heard

    -If only I had the strength, You'd be completely trusting something else

    -If only I had the strength, You'd be calling me to say something else

    -If only I hadn't changed, You'd be calling to just say something else

    -If only I hadn't changed, You'd be completely trusting someone else

  • @EvilAngel0019 actually it sounds like the third one thanks.

  • What are you guys trying to prove with these arguments? It ain't bring neither of them both back. haha. win.

  • wait im lost.. did saosin break up?! Or just another different singer?

  • @Xx1NF4M0U5xEvanxX lol where have u been?

  • this song would be 10000 times better if they did like 3 notes lower, its annoying listening to them sing higher than they can actually sing.

  • @theunwrittenlaws stfu. 

  • Anthony Mother Fucking Green!

  • to me they sound a little different but enough alike that I can hardly tell the difference.

  • OK top comment? So Whooo is the new lead singer? Id love to know if saosion have a new album out anythime soon too :\

  • @ZBxRaptor92 lead singer is tillian pearson (ex-tides of man). check saosins myspace, new demo with him up.

  • @wreckml Cooool thanks for that.

  • well I think anthony sings the song in a post hardcore genre while cove sings it as melodic rock or whatever it is xD!

    theyre different type, so you cant really compare them both =P

  • @ExtremeColdBlizzard The type of genre is meaningless and it nearly always is. You can compare them. You could compare Slayer to Fleetwood Mac if you want to.

  • @SkyyVodkaa

    Well lets put it into an analogy, which is better? cat or dog?

    They are two different types of animals so can't really be compared. If you did choose which is better, it is because of personal taste.

    Put it back to music, post hardcore and rock are two different genres so can't really be compared. If you did choose which is better, it is because of personal taste.

    Personally I prefer anthony green version as it is post-hardcore and I prefer this genre over rock

  • @ExtremeColdBlizzard Yes, you can compare a cat and a dog. Yes, you can compare Post Hardcore to Rock and you also can compare Anthony to Cove.

    Stop trying to put music into even more catagories. It is plain stupidity.

  • @SkyyVodkaa

    Yes you can compare them both, but deciding which is BETTER comes down to personal taste.

    It's like deciding which is better on shows like Britain's gots talent, how do you compare dancing and a magic show? Whichever you choose as the better act (assuming theyre at the same quality) comes downs to personal taste.

  • @ExtremeColdBlizzard Anthony and Cove are both good. The quality of the lyrics and songwriting was better with Anthony in the band, but the lyrics/songwriting with Cove were popular and sucessful in the mainstream. There is my comparison without any personal taste involved.

    No, it is not like Britain's Got Talent, they are both singers, singing the same song with the same band...

  • @SkyyVodkaa

    Deciding which is better always comes downs to personal taste. From my knowledge, Anthony left the band cos he was depressed, homesick and because his band member didnt allow him to contribute to the lyrics and song writing.

    The Britain's Got Talent was an analogy. I was trying to show that you can't compare two different genres. Would you be able to compare bands like Justin Bieber and Slipknot? No cos they are different to each other in a lot of ways.

  • @ExtremeColdBlizzard You clearly haven't read anything i've written.

  • @SkyyVodkaa

    Well seeing as I replied back to your comment about the lyrics/songwriting and BGT, I have clearly have read it.

    My point is, is that you can compare them both, but you shouldnt because the singers are singing in different styles. If cove sang the song like anthony, den we can and should compare to see who is better.

    Other than that, its up to the person to decide if they liked the post-hardcore singing that anthony did or not.

  • @ExtremeColdBlizzard I guess it is just a difference of opinnion. You have yours and I have mine, which is fine. I just don't like putting singer into even more categories. Anyway Saosin don't have either of these guys anymore.

  • @SkyyVodkaa

    Ya fair enough. Yeah Saosin dont even have both now anyway xD! I did some quick research and they said that they kicked Cove out because of his degrading performance live and his degrading lyrics. Whilst on other websites, i see the same comment they said about cove's departure, but the line 'kicking cove out becos of his degrading performance' is missing =S

  • @ExtremeColdBlizzard Anthony is my personal favourite but I did like Cove. He was actually a pretty nice guy as well. I think they will lose a lot of fans for kicking him out and to be honest, I hope they do so they see they were wrong.

  • @SkyyVodkaa

    Ya Anthony is my favourite as well. The songs he sang with Saosin were actually interesting and exciting to listen to. I wouldn't say Cove songs were rubbish, it just most of the songs felt boring to listen to and the chorus all sounded the same, as in every word was sang like "youuuuuuuuu areeeeeeeee notttttttttttttt".

    but ya, im sure cove was a nice guy, and i do like songs like "bury your head" and "you're not alone".

    ya many fans arent going to treat saosin the same as before

  • Anthony green is to good for saosin. saosin sucked after anthony green left

  • As much as this debate burns, I think Saosin IS and will always be Cove Rebar.....that particular group gave us the self titled.

  • Why do the best bands always break apart?

  • @th3r4nd0m3m0k1d that's exactly what i though. anthony green has a more whiney voice, and i'm not hating on him when i say that. i love his voice. but cove's voice is more appealing to me. and this was just AG's voice twice. not cove..

  • what happened to saosin...the self titled album was mind blowing, but songs like this just suck no matter who's singing.

  • @trb0myk

    You obviously haven't listened to Translating the Name and the 2005 ep.

  • @newbands1 I'm pretty sure Ive heard it all, they got my attention with voices but kept it with sleepers/follow and feel/so simple/come close/not alone...epic album set my Saosin standards too high to enjoy the rest.

  • nice song

  • @ilovblood anthonys voice sucks here, are you serious?

  • @SammyAndHisGuitar

    its his raw singing voice without the studio auto-tuning that cove got (I assume)

  • @ExtremeColdBlizzard actually, cove does this song very well live.

  • the lyrics are incorrect.

  • if im correcvt which since i listen to this band from the start this "cove reber" version isnt cove its still anthony cause it sounds similiar to the second demo which came out before they had cove

  • They both sound fucking amazing, and to say otherwise is just ignorant. Where Cove fit better into Saosin was preforming. Cove puts himself into the song and projects a lot of emotion while singing where as Anthony is just making sure it sounds great. Both good qualities but Saosin needs that emotion.

  • listen closely to: "i'll melt away in the summer aaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiir" of both versions. judge for yourself.

  • THIS IS EPIC

  • this is the original

  • Agree Completely and i can see how cove was just stepping into huge shoes following Anthony Green. Circa Survive is AMAZING haha and a way better fit for him. and Saosins New Vocalist is actually amazing and totally different but its what Saosin needs.

  • i love anthony green to death. but im glad he left saosin and did circa survive. i think circa is a much better match for anthony and saosin was a good match for cove. they did amazing with cove and i love all saosin material and circa survive material the way it is with anthony an cove where they are/were. but anthony did launch saosin and make it amazing. cove did as good as anybody could following his footsteps.

  • .. continued

    but he FAILED miserably. and his voice could never even come close to the range and pitch of anthony green, Yet Saosin has another vocalist that i have not heard hopefully this new front man will step up and be a thrill to see on stage such as Mr Green was back in the day. But then again nothing can add up to Anthony Green plus hes on his solo stuff now which is tentimes BETTER :D

  • Um Correction! So you say Cove "nurtured" Saosin? hahah

    ok First Anthony green WAS AND WILL always be saosin, He created the band for one and took the band to there all time high will selling 62,000 records on there EP Translating the Name. No album from saosin has ever sold that much nor ever will.

    Second saosin Kicked Cove out of the band cause of his horrible stage performance and his morals were conflicting with the band i will give him the credit of stepping in and taking the post but...

  • @ilovblood well once you see every saosin videos comments and about 90% of them are all bashing cove they all look the same

  • @ilovblood well your just about the only person who ive seen like that, well than i guess i have to give you some respect there for actually basing an honest opinion, and without a doubt your one of the few who does, i first listened to anthony and then i heard cove, to be honest they both sound similar i could really care less if anthony or cove sings, im just sick of kids bashing cove all the time

  • whats funny is that you idiots really think that the version that is cleaner and more defined could be anthony green. he was in the band when saosin was just starting out and therefore didn't have professional sounding recordings. Cove joined the band and re-recorded this song with better equipment and quality. people are straight retarded.

  • people must realise that if there was no cove reber you wouldnt have heard of saosin , because although green did set them off and brought lots of attention he did bring them there sucess or fame

  • @ilovblood first off i never disrespected Anthony, second of all, you said "Anthony's version is much better." you didnt say "Anothony's version is much better, in my opinion", you said it like its a fact, which obviously isnt true, cause evryone has their opinion, i know i come off like im trolling but i am fucking sick and tired of so many kids saying that Anothnys better just because he was in the band first, if cove was there first you would all be saying anthony sucks i know that for a fact

  • @ilovblood k dude stop looking in a thesaurus to try and make yourself look smart, to be honest i really dont give a fuck about this arguement anymore, you cant say that anothny is better, cause thats just opinion, others will say cove is better, me being one of them, because dont have any more respect for who was in the band from the beginning, whoever has more talent i like more, and i find that cove does, now im not goin to go trolling on every saosin video saying "HE'S BETTER" like you do

  • @ilovblood actually the video with the most views is your not alone which has 1.4 million views, and cove is singing in that, seven years only has 1.3million, so get your facts straight, and im actually in university right now kid, you know the place that helps you go far in life lol i dont think youll ever see it haha

  • They're both really good singers, both have their strengths and weaknesses, that's that. Stop complaining about something that obviously cant be changed. Anthony's gone, DEAL WITH IT!

  • @ilovblood get my information straight? lol you said anthony left because his mind was more complex lol, and btw if cove sucks how come saosin has gotten alot more popular with him as their lead singer, look at the videos for songs cove sings in and compare them with the ammount of views the videos with anthonys singing has, coves vids have wayyy more views, and look at circa survive their not even close to being as popular as saosin.

  • @ilovblood i find it funny how you quoted me on saying he got "kicked out" when i never said that or even implied it, i said he left lol

  • @ilovblood lol are you joking? do you even know why he left? not because his thinking is more complex its because the band didnt let him write the songs, and didnt like that the band was signing with a "mainstream" label, honestly im sick of kids like you who have no idea what theyre talking about, btw the first versions better in my opinion, anthony green is wayyyy overrated

  • The first time I heard this song, it was Anthony's version, I don't know, maybe because it seems more familiar to me I like it better. But don't get me wrong the other one is very good ! :D

  • Anthony was in Saosin for like a year.. he's much better in Circa anyways. Both of these versions have their pros and cons.

  • Green's is great but the chorus is a bit "sloppy" I think compared to cove's version. But I still prefer Green's version of this song cause it's a bit more raw and genuine ^^

  • using one song to compare two singers, especially when the song was written by one of the singers? rofl

  • AG second one is better the chorus mainly is so much better

  • Epic!! :D

  • Point is, both Cove and Anthony are no longer in Saosin.

    They were amazing in their time in Saosin. Anyone who says otherwise about any of them is completely retarded. Anthony was there at the beginning of Saosin, he sung amazing songs. But Cove, nurtured Saosin throughout the years. You can go off saying "Anthony Green is SAOSIN!" when Cove was the one that was there throughout the years. both artists are amazing. thank you for your amazing songs to the music industry.

  • @xthatsbrutalx

    Dude their new cds were pretty awful - a completely different genre than what the random demos/eps were. They sold out big-time (I know: it's a cliche to use sold-out now - I don't care) and I think if Anthony had stayed then Saosin would've been the incredibly talented band they were originally meant to be.

    Hindsight is 20/20 though so I may be wrong...but Circa is amazing as well. Ahh if only Saosin could've stayed amazing too.

  • anthony green is the man. just because he does laps around cove doesnt mean cove was a bad singer, it just means he was better.

  • @xthatsbrutalx How could you call them retarded? Everybody's entitled to their own opinion, that's the way it should be, if you don't like, you should live in a place like North Korea.

  • @xthatsbrutalx Thanks for finally ending this on going war between cove vs. anthony.. about time..

  • Both Rocked, both different sound, but not too much. Anthony slurs his words more and pronounces oddly, but gotta love him. Cove hits that last/end note better/cleaner... but BOTH are great

  • Cove Reber is different from Anthony Green. He's going to sound different, he's going to write different music. To hold him to Green's standard is to expect him to be someone he's not. I think both versions are kickass and that Saosin's fans have been spoiled. How many other bands do you know that got an amazing replacement when the original singer up and left?

  • yeah but cove performs this song life with different lyrics.. and that really sucks

  • Both of them rock!

  • both version have only Very very little difference...!! but they are both rocks o_O\m/

  • they both good

    

  • @ilovblood i honestly think anthony is better off with CIRCA SURVIVE...cove is good

  • I kinda like anthony green more, hmm...Still both are great.

  • @tweaker61 that is exactly my opinion except i like cove just a tiny bit more. :)

  • to clear it up, both versions are in exactly the same key. both are singing the same melodies. they are they same notes. niether is higher. the production quality of anthony's track (the second one) is lower because it was done much earlier. cove has a lot more studio work done to his vocals including harmonies in this song. anthony goes off pitch here are there, proof that his vocals are raw and not corrected here. as far as skill goes, niether track is a good indicator, it's a matter of taste

  • @ilovblood same, i jizz in my pants

  • i think cove's sound more full, because he they had a major label behind them by then, and access to record full productions.

  • I listened the version of Anthony... but I like Cove's Version better.

    its the same about 3rd Measurement in C to me.

  • COVE IS THE FIRST AND ANTHONY IS THE SECOND.

    1. Notice the screaming in the chorus.

    2.Notice the sound quality.

    3.Notice that the notes are higher in the second one. That's Anthony's voice.

  • cove is a better singer.. singing instead of whining is always better fags

  • @steelereserve07 Anthony's still going strong. While Cove is out of a band.

  • Free Energy is real and its here! The Oil companies r doing everything they can to stop this

    revolution!

  • @TyJoWil Yes..... First is Anthony... You Know it, I know it..... Man your one hell of a guy!

  • both versions are good on record but live is where anthony excels. not only can he sing live he has stage presence. coves live is really lacking because he struggles vocally.

  • Not sure which is who but I gotta say with no bias at all that the second one is by far my favorite, both versions are amazing performances of an incredible song...I do like the drums better in the first one though =)

  • omfg you guys! OK

    LISTEN!!!

    1st song=Cove!

    2nd song=Anthony!

    THATS IT!

    trust me on this, i have evry tack (including unreleased ones and instramentals of saosin from 05 back (aka before they turned into pop)

    p.s someone said cove wrights much deeper lyrics?? ARE YOU A FUHKlNG RETARD?!

    dood the reason most ppl understand anthonys lyrics is cus there JUST THAT DEEP!

    where as to cove sings lil catchy buIIsht lines that fit in with the rest of the crap on the radio xxD

    -peace

  • the first one, the second is AG .. but dont compare this, watch i can tell live with cove and AG you will know whos better .. for me AG owns

  • If you want to know which one is Cove, listen carefully for a Texan accent. :]

  • i love anthony green version.......

  • @alexguitarguy @haweyes19 the second one in this video is the demo version from when Anthony was the vocalist. the First song is Cove. If you notice the first version has a much cleaner tone and the recording sounds professional. the DEMO version sounds rough from the days when Anthony was still singing.

  • @hallifax553 its green.

  • anthony made saosin good..i agree...cove made saosin great. ok wow wat band hasnt sold out :P thats no reason to put them down also...SRRY SCREAMO KIDS if thats y u r so upset stop bitching srsly cove is amazing and i love anthony big deal they dont scream now cove with saosin is better but their both gone so...NOW saosin sux cause they dont hve either of their badass singers

  • Anthony sounds dumb compared to Cove, Cove writes better its really deep

  • No matter who's singing, A-Rod is the sickest drummer in the god damn world!!!

  • @harison22 Pat McGrath recorded all the drums for drums for the "translating the name album". You can find a vid where he did a guest appearance at a live show.

  • Comment removed

  • @harison22 heck yeah, Alex is the man. (also had a typo in my last comment there, added a second "drums for" ppeeaccee

  • @harison22 hell yea Swansen03 is is a hater man

  • I prefer Cove but you've gotta admit that Anthony has much more talent.

  • The first version is Cove, the second is Anthony.

    According to their forum.

    There you can see which ones Cove and Anthony sing on, and if I'm not mistaken the first version is on "Music On the Brain Vol 1", which Cove sings on.

    (Can't post a link because youtube doesn't allow it but it's there on the forum)

  • @AlexGuitarGuy The second is Cove. Because I have the recorded version of the fourth back when Anthony was the vocalist and Ive listened to it so much that I know that the first one is Anthony and the second is Cove! I love Cove but Cove struggles on the second one to get as high as Anthony. Anthony is flawless

  • @findyourway19 Well according to saosins own forum (where I belive the band members are on the forum too) it says that it's cove on the first one, but I could be wrong so yeah.

    But I don't think that the first one is Anthony actually, the voice sounds more like Cove in my ears. o.O

  • @findyourway19

    youre way off. cove is the first and anthony is the second

  • @jeffzalonka No im not dude. I know anthonys voice.... Listen to Circa and then the first version. Cove can not do as well as anthony in the vox department. Thats why the second isnt as good. ya dude im listening right now and the first is anthony and second is cove! I know my stuff thats why its frustrating when people dont realize. I had the first version a long time ago and still do. Before Cove was the singer.....

  • @findyourway19

    Seriously DUDE? The first fucking track is Cove Singing.

    The Second is fucking Anthony Green at 3:30

    Notice the Audio Quaility? The second one was in 2005. Even notice the pitch. Green sings at a higher pitch then Cove.

  • @jeffzalonka

    dude you dont know shit about saosin. seriously, its so pathetic that you cant even tell the difference between cove and anthony yet claim to be a fan. also, you swear you were the only one listening to them from the start.

    lol so lame ...

  • Anthony version is much better!

  • i think anthony sings with wayy more emotion.

  • Comment removed

  • Green is the first one. Go listen to them live and you can tell. The one with green has more guitar live.

  • @JBeua7 the second one is green. good try though

  • @haweyes19 Actually the second one is Cove. I know for a fact. Cove is awesome but he struggles to sound like Anthony Green. I have both versions and the first is Green second is Cove

  • When judging them you have to keep in mind that Anthony Green's version was just a demo. So that's probably why the sound quality at times wasn't very good, but at the same time I think that's why I like it more. It's a bit more... raw. You know?

  • both versions r awesome in different ways.

    cove version has an awesome voice and alex (awesome drummer)

    anthony version has an awesome voice and has screaming in it

    im a drummer/screamer(kinda)/lyrici­st

    so bottom line is... they both fuckin rule, end of story

  • Wait the second one is Cove? Damn he sounds JUST like Anthony to me, especially with the the half-screaming stuff in the chorus. Whoever is singing the second version, I like that one better. It really sounds like Anthony, and I'm a huge AG fan, but if it's Cove then oh well it's an incredible rendition of the song.

  • cove is by far just as good if not better than AG. if half of you would get off anthony's dick you would enjoy and appreciate the tone cove brings to saosin. if i recall AG has a band that revolves moreso around his singing style, if you like his shit so much go listen to circa and stop bitching.

  • Cove's version is wayyyyy better. AG sucks. Thank god he left saosin.

  • cove is no anthony. sry cove fans =\

  • anthony is the first one !! and he is ugh soo awesome

  • It doesnt matter which singer is better, because this song sucks

  • @jonfranche hahahaha

  • Anthony Green is SAOSIN! when he left saosin sounded different! :) no offense to cove reber fans.. the second version is way better than the first one!

  • @trashtalkboys anthony is the first versionROFLROFLROFL you just confirmed that cove is just as good as anothony.

  • Comment removed

  • The first on is Cove, the second is Anthony. Know what you are talking about before you try to prove someone wrong. GG.
