7 Seconds - Young Till I Die

[BillHicks420]

I love 7 Seconds, but I think the Redemption 87 cover is better. I have it on my page. It just got more spunk in it, ya know?

[CrossRoadDeath]

a filipino band covered this one. their band's name is As A Whole and they really did a good cover with this one. and it's sad to hear their frontman is now up there... living peacefully. we always remember him with this song. he was such a good guy, R.I.P. Peter, your legacy remains in the hardcore scene here in davao, philippines.

[xXInfiniteMischiefXx]

Fucking love it <3

[gabboagonistes]

live fast die old

[anoni81b4u]

I remember slammin to this at the cameo in miami in the 80s ... and im still young ... :)

[TheBitchface88]

Damn it, am I the only asshole who plays this 3 times over? I wish it wasn't so short!

[bloodinbloodout818]

shut up and listen to the damn song. you got something to say? write a song about and play it live at a show...then post the song up on youtube, live everyone else does.

[xMCRmyLovex]

sXe for life

[LFCgiamiazwh]

this is it guyz...have fun!

[kingster911]

I never looked into 7 Seconds, had only heard OF them. I may have searched them here long ago, but now I need to get their cd(s) b/c this song is pretty kickass!

[beneathpavement1]

I had this on a mix-tape in 85 or so - I thought the tape was poor quality. Now I know it was the recording! Still good though...

[szeilea]

what the fuck is this goon saying? or am i just too high to understand him...?

[robsmagic]

i think this song is going to help me quit smoking..

[XminhacontaX]

Crássico rapá!

[ToniRavioli]

Sitting on a futon mat, in a squat in Darmstadt,

Kevin Seconds said to me in passing,

"Age never meant shit to me. It's all about heart and stupidity",

And I thought that there's no better way to live.

[ozarkcacti]

I grew up to this music. Now at 41 I'm still ripping it up at skate parks. Some off you might be saying " well good for you" well fuck you then!

[Oisandwich]

@ozarkcacti well good for you

[divein360]

so the fuck what whether they're a straight edge band. its music. thats all that matters. if you like the music, good for you.

[SmokeandxxMirrorsxx]

After all these years I still love this band.

[alexsurhmaverick]

28 people grew old and died

[LoyaltySucks]

7 Seconds isn't straight edge. They just played with a bunch of straight edge bands and gave out a positive and clean message.

[toxicnarcotic16]

yeahhhh RENO



[witch877]

im gonna stay stoned until i die

[Worfelzarz]

I'm gonna stay minding my own business 'til I die.

[Bitterswoon]

Thumbs up if you've listened to this song while drunk.

[PhilGarner666]

Not straight edge but have loved these guys since high school.

[rude69trad]

I'M GONNA STAY DRUNK UNTIL I DIE!!! :D

[Mr420ways]

ID RATER WORK FROM 9 TO 5 THAN DRINK TO STAY ALIVE

[kenmasters831]

the message in this song is amazing

[nervouswreck75]

I remember being 34, a few months shy of 35, lying on a gurney in ICU, thinking to myself, "I'm gonna make it, i'm gonna make it..."

[mTmFilms]

Right now, I have a beer and a big line in front of me and I'm listening to this. Who gives a fuck? I'm not straight edge but I like this band.

[sunchilde68]

This is the attitude OF THE AGES!!! and it goes for any age to adopt this way of thinking !!! I will hang onto it forever if I can !!!! and will party till possibly my final moment on this plain of existance...peace and love!!!

[ljh2000]

@sunchilde68 I have your back, sunchilde68! Peace and blessings... forward the positivity!

[sunchilde68]

@ljh2000 Nice! thank you my friend! Let us carry the torch of eternal youth together!

[DrAmaizeING]

@Insanepunk1996 And I'm never shouting along to Minor Threat's Straight Edge while being sober...

[Hollandia777]

simply fuckin'loved these 7(x23) sec's of my life!....

[misfits765]

@noisemann why even bother comment if you know people are gunna give you shit for this?

[noisemann]

@misfits765 fair enough man, thanks for the look out. alot of SxE kids take it all too seriously

[misfits765]

@noisemann i mean your alowed to voice your opinion its just alot of people will jump on you for that and then it starts a big stupid web fight and its pointless fighting over the web

[HuckleB680]

I don't do any drugs and I love 7 seconds

[hamsterbass123]

@Insanepunk1996 i drunk and i love 7 seconds

[IncompleteSk8]

Happy edge day! xXx

[dav4305]

[theunscarredone]

@mndrc old people

[Proud1Vegan]

Go positive



[rocketboy375]

you don't have to be straight edge to like a straight edge band. i'm a vegetarian, but I like getting stoned and getting drunk, and I like 7 Seconds

[Necropedocoprophilia]

@rocketboy375 Yeah, I'd be drowning my sorrows in weed and alcohol if I couldn't eat a delicious cheeseburger, too.

[zeroxanthony]

@rocketboy375

seriously im tired of getting shit for drinking and living in a minor threat sweater

[rocketboy375]

@zeroxanthony live life how you want to man

[XGRIMYONEX]

[TheAntifapunk]

@rocketboy375 same here m8 ;) i prefer getting stoned because weed makes you happy and cures things like cancer,tourettes,pain,astma...­..

[rocketboy375]

@TheAntifapunk totally agree man :P

[BillHicks420]

Redmption 87 has a good cover for this. I'm still uncertain which I find to be better.. hmm..

[TheMunchMaster]

@Insanepunk1996 im not straight edge at all lol i just snorted 6 pills and smoked some weed but 7seconds is my favorite band of all time without a doubt, i worship the crew album like religion.

[Bonersoup183]

Hardcore songs about age make me depressed.

[daavpuke]

Does anyone here know 5 Days Off?

[SludgePunkGrunge]

@CRandLC it happens haha. not the first time sure it won't be the last. was sick seeing 7 seconds though.

[SludgePunkGrunge]

@CRandLC my friend and myself wanted beer. so we went up to a beer vendor and they were talking to eachother not doing their jobs. So my friend took a beer and dropped our money on their counter and they freaked on her. Security was rought with her like she was a guy and I got pissed and told the guy to ease up. Anyway long story short they tossed her and they tossed me for being with her and when they shoved her out the gate I pushed him for doing that.

[GEETARS3]

@SludgePunkGrunge

fucking hell, how hard is it to get a beer these days?

[SludgePunkGrunge]

@GEETARS3 im guessing pretty hard.

[GEETARS3]

@SludgePunkGrunge

well in Australia you can buy drinks for bars and bottle shops when you turn 18, and pretty much every wharehouse venue is BYO aslong as it isnt in a youth centre.

[SludgePunkGrunge]

@GEETARS3 yea if you bought bere at the place it was at they carded you once gave you a wristband and you were set.

[SludgePunkGrunge]

saw them live last night and got thrown out of the show after because of scumbag security. awesome live band.

[GEETARS3]

@SludgePunkGrunge

Uh just read you got kicked out, fucking seccies, the problem is pretty bad in Australia as well but there are some venues that have quite alot of a lee way.

[SludgePunkGrunge]

@GEETARS3 yea some venues here arent bad, but other times here it sucks. I mean just look how the police are treating peaceful protestors. fuck em.

[whenthemusicsover1]

"youre just a hipster mark"

[markroar]

kyle is a flaming faggot~~~

[whenthemusicsover1]

This band isnt straight edge!

[malleusss555]

7 SECONDS

[MrProzacmilkshake]

i like having bong hits to this song

[ABCnull815]

denkt mal über den text nach,die meissten von euch werden mit mitte 20 "normal" haben aber früher den song laut mitgegrölt...

[ljh2000]

The message is timeless and positive! I'm 40 years old, a special ed teacher, married man, potential father and STILL have lots of living to do! I also don't bother drinking, smoking, etc. I still will be young 'til I die! :)

[misfits765]

@ljh2000 i admire you :)

[ljh2000]

@misfits765 Thanks! Your comment made my day, and your YouTube channel rocks!

[misfits765]

@ljh2000 thanks!

[OfficialDearLA]

@ljh2000 Dude your sick as fuck

[yhnops]

@ljh2000 well said man! :) cheers from Poland :)

[EviLReN3]

@ljh2000 Thanks for being who you are man!! Fucking rock on \m/!

[ljh2000]

@EviLReN3 Hey, EvilReN3! Your post absolutely made my day! Thanks for being who YOU are!

[ArrogantBastard138]

@ljh2000 hell ya man way to be! Im 21 and have a 1 year old son who will listen to this when he gets older

[ljh2000]

@ArrogantBastard138 I'm very proud of you. Posts like yours give me hope and always remind me how worthwhile life can be. Keep up your positivity!

[XGRIMYONEX]

@ljh2000 your getting old and boring 

[idontwantohurtnobody]

kill to

[idontwantohurtnobody]

do drugs......and drink........stay wasted, that way you wont waste your time n energy tryen to change something you cant.

[scunion73]

37 years old and young...until i die -ie -ie!!

[strummer77clash]

Straight-edge is a phase. I have yet to see anyone go past 22 as a true straight edge.

[strummer77clash]

@strummer77clash idealistic, hopeful, optimistic, good choice, but life eventually shows its true colors and personal control loses its strength. 38 and I wish I could do it now.

[Douchestache]

@strummer77clash - i wouldn't label myself, as i'm far too old to bother with that BS, but with the exception of a cup of coffee now and again, i don't drink, smoke or do drugs, and i don't engage in casual sexual encounters. i'm almost 40 and have lived like this for ages; for no other reason than that it suits my needs.

[iancoheekelsey]

@strummer77clash Ian Mackaye, Toby from H2O, Pat Flynn from Have Heart, etc.

[deathpunx13]

667TH COMMENT HAHAHA - HELP EM GET A VAN - info on our facebook and myspace - search deathpunx - uncle monster

[Hubcool367]

Fuck, stop trying to be proud to be edge if you're not 21... shitty fucking kids

[R3VOLV3RLUTION]

@Hubcool367 drugs and alcohol surround teenagers too; its way more of a challenge and a statement to be edge when youre a teen than at any of the other points in your life because its basically the whole social scene in high school these days

[Hubcool367]

@R3VOLV3RLUTION alright, maybe not 21, like 15-16 or so, but don't be 11-12 and say it lol. I mean, most likely, these kids refused a sip of beer from their dad's and think like 'HOLY FUCK I DID REFUSE IT I'M EDGE NOW AND BETTER THAN EVERYONE'. Fuck you. You're only edge when people around you are starting to have fun with drugs and stop giving a fuck about their lives (16 or so), not when everyone around you needs moms to tie their shoes..

[Hubcool367]

@R3VOLV3RLUTION Or actually, I know why I said 21, it would mean that you 'resisted' for like 6 years, NOW that's what I call being edge. I can't take a kid who's been 'edge' for like a week seriously, just because all his friends had their first E pills last week and he refused to have one. That kid is edge, but don't be proud and annoying about it, it's easy to last a month, lasting 5 years isn't. I don't know if you get my point :p

[BugCostumes]

@Hubcool367 Obviously you haven't been to a high school recently. Kids drink, smoke, and do drugs all the time. So if teenagers are edge, that is something they should be proud of of.

[Hubcool367]

@BugCostumes read the other shit I said, if you're fucking 14, you just got into high school and it's the first few months you're exposed to drugs. Be proud if it's been at least a few years that you're edge (and by proud I mean, looking down on other people and thinking you're better, etc etc like most edge kids do). I hope this puts it in clear words :) It makes no sense that a 14 year old so-called edge kid would look down on a person that's like 23 and drinking (this stuff happens too often)

[MicRidget]

Damn, i got feeling that most of this 373.00 views are mine.

[kjrody21]

@Insanepunk1996 ur only like 14 though lol

[DailyBrusher]

Inspired by Kevin and Ian, I've been straight edge since about 1984. I don't think those guys are SE any more, but it's been good for me. Probably saved my life, as I come from a family of drunks and addicts.

[TheIllegalKind]

@DailyBrusher ian im for sure is still straight edge

[DailyBrusher]

@TheIllegalKind

Well, I don't know for sure, but I don't think he is. I think he's a moderate drinker, actually. But I don't really know.

[TheIllegalKind]

@DailyBrusher no im for sure he is he recently did an interview for the movie about it and how would you knnow are you freinds with him

[DailyBrusher]

@TheIllegalKind

No, just stuff you read on the 'net, or hear from people... What's the movie?

[TheIllegalKind]

@DailyBrusher no i saw the interview the movie is called EDGE dude im for sure he is still straight edge

[punkstuffstfu]

I hate the new straightedge movement. Fucking cunts most of them. It's hard to spot the good ones among them.

[ESmaniak]

@punkstuffstfu What? There's A LOT of straight edge kids today who are great people. And I am curious as to when this "New Straight Edge Movement" started what it exactly consists of.

[punkstuffstfu]

@ESmaniak Not where I come from. We got this hardcorepunk festival every year in Belgium called: Ieperfest. Now, the people there are from the new SX movement. They beat up people who drink beer or eat meat in groups of 10. No one wishes to go anymore because of those damn kids ruining all the fun. I don't mind someone being vegie and sober but if they behave like that, that crosses the line.

[Blackdragon5151]

[deadembryoniccells7]

You waited long for 21. For me the fight has just begun. You get in clubs, drink alcohol, It makes you feel you're ten feet tall.I don't wanna grow up, I'm never getting old. I'd rather work from 9 to 5 Than drink to stay alive. I'm gonna stay young until I die!You grew up fast, now you'll die soon. I'll never fucking be like you. You finish college, grab a wife, You're dead before you're 35.

[misfits765]

@deadembryoniccells7 always been wondering what the lyrics were

[deadembryoniccells7]

@misfits765 fuck you

[horrificpunkfreak]

Deviates Is Better

[Angryschizoid]

I started hating this band with a passion when they made a song about a kid struggling with poverty, basically they mocked him.

This band makes me sick now, they must be some gay pampered shits, at least the guy who wrote the song.

Also i don't care about gays, using it in the corny sense, before you get your petty leftist banners up.

[partyarty1985]

I don't wanna grow up,

I'm never getting old.

I'd rather work from 9 to 5

Than drink to stay alive.

I'm gonna stay young until I die!

You grew up fast, now you'll die soon.

I'll never fucking be like you.

You finish college, grab a wife,

You're dead before you're 35.

[cadeadman1230]

im black and 7 seconds is the fucking shit

[SayAnythingBob]

I'm sure people who like this music are smart.

[sm0kindatg00d]

i dont care if they 're straight edge or not,i got wasted to it in the fuckin 80s in squats all over Chicago & the rest of the country,now, i guess im still getting wasted to it,but my ole lady keeps me from getting my knuckles broke & my head busted in.anyway,straight edge is a joke;everyone has some kind of vice.just cuz you say S.E.,dont make it so.ANTI can be a drug,too.

[PossessorMetal]

@Insanepunk1996 its the music not the message. I love verbal Abuse, 7Seconds, Infest, teen idols...all straight edge, but im not.

[AlvaroSaenz666]

drugs and metal , las drogas van de la mano del metal y punk, the rock guys has to use up drugs, dont come with Straight Edge

[ThePunkcore6969]

@AlvaroSaenz666 You're an idiot.

[Austhesauce]

@AlvaroSaenz666 da fuck is dat

[LoyaltySucks]

@AlvaroSaenz666 Tienes problemas grammaticas, lrn2grammar.

[AlvaroSaenz666]

drugs and metal , las drogas van de la mano del metal y punk, the rock guys has to use up drugs, dont come with Straight Edge

[dropkickM]

This ... Chaaoosss.....

I.....

LOVEIT!

[mowhak1]

I'm drunk and 44 at the moment, but in my mind I'm as young as at the time I heard that song the 1st time. got the message, but I´m sure I wouldn`t feel better now had I been sober from then on. good luck to all who are.

[TheV8design]

18 people are old inside...

[1971Davidpintos]

I'm going to stay young until i die, kevin.

bones

[SammySlang]

yeah blah blah comment wars... I'm gonna stay young until i diiiie!

[skulldrix]

this song is talking about how when you hit adulthood all you do is get drunk, and numbed with drugs to deal with your transition into white picket mediocrity, getting a high stress job, going to college, getting married all these normal conventions.

[trolleywire]

so good.... 1987. Edmonton! such a good show!!

[146120]

Yesterday I witnessed Youth of Today close with this song!

It was the greatest show ever!

[CheapHomemadeProdux]

@146120 me too. fucking awesome show

[FatManRedemption]

Damn dude. I just heard this song for the first time. ...It's pretty great.

[mattmurdock562]

this means this and this came from that.. shut the fuck up

[declineofcivlization]

I never want to grow old it sounds like a drag,i also am staying young until i die,maybe not straight edge,but much respect to those of you who are,the man wants you doped up and drunk,Dont give in!

[arabianmetalhead99]

I always liked 7 seconds distortion. 

[ScottyMC69]

7 Seconds, the best!! This song is my mantra...42 and still diggin the hardcore!

[CorpseGrinder006]

"I'm a bit out of touch with the newer Straight Edge scene so I can't comment too much on it, but being drug/alcohol/abuse-free, I certainly have no problems with people taking control of their lives and not letting stuff like drugs and booze run it for them, but I do have problems with people who try and change other people's lives in a militant fashion". -Kevin Seconds

[ggallinrules]

@CorpseGrinder006

neither "booze" nor "drugs" rule my life i like to have a drink at the end of the day. it is not abuse fuckhead even though i love seven seconds i will stay young till i die. partying on weekends and such 

[CorpseGrinder006]

@ggallinrules

What are you rambling about? I drink and smoke. Shit, I've drank and smoked next to Kevin Seconds. The entire point of the quote is that hardline SXE is foolish.

[BaseGodWitness]

@CorpseGrinder006 u suck

[TheyKnowNoShame]

@CorpseGrinder006 That sir is a fine answer to a complex question. i have been both sides in my life, now longtime free of drug/booze routine(guess that is the reason that i am 70 and too damned healthy:longetivity can be a dilemma:) But i want to stress in exclamation points, young people let me be an example by saying that at 70 i may well be NOW younger than at anytime in my life.So never be deceived by a person's age, youth is an INNER MATTER. Was Groucho Marx old at 80? NoWay!(VBG)

[dsg325]

Great punk band.

[flemingia]

I realized I missed the point and my heart had died when I found myself drinking a beer and smoking a cigarette while listening to this with my daughter. Oh wait- that's just parenthood.

[catchthemslippin]

met kevin seconds at warped tour a buncha years ago..nicest guy ever!!!

[brainisrigjt]

@mrzombies: youre a fucking idiot. I know this isnt as fashionable as Lady Gaga or whoever you like, but 7 Seconds is fucking raw original punk rock. Fuck off slag

[BrokeTrailerTrash]

What the heck is straight edge? Is it like homophobia? I think Im out of the loop here.. I have this tape but its old now and it sounds all muted and fuzzy although my deck is geting kinda dated too and I cant find the head cleaner. I think CDs are ridiculous, one scratch and theyre done and records are just way to big unless you look at them from the side... and Mp3s, dont get me started on Mp3s!Tapes are still the best. What a pointless rant.

[inde169]

STRAIGHT EDGE had nothing to do with HOMO intolerance but was about SOBRIETY..No Alcohol, drugs..sometimes on to vegetarianism, celibacy etc..Focused self control not rampant CONSMERISM..that's all!

[MrZombies1998]

wow this song is horrible thumbs down if you dont agree

[Stoptwistingmymelon]

@MrZombies1998 no i dont agree. go listen to madonna or wham or whatever it is that turned you into the sad lonley person with nothing better to do than to post negative comments on videos of bands you dont even like. now heed my words, dress up as adam ant and get arrested outside a public school. then when you have endured the nightmare of prison in your little adam ant costume , you may appolagize sir .

[tejasrojo11]

.......SLAM MOTHERFUCKER!!!!!!!!!!!!
