Tom Gabel, Harsh Realms

[chanwahfung]

Which one's Tom?

[MultiNatester]

@chanwahfung Both are.

[azaas]

This and Chuck Ragan's Do what you do have been my absolute favorite songs .... i'd die to sing those two with those guys... nah i wouldn't ... i'd just keep living my life with a huge smile upon my face after that :D

[Winning247]

he is a sell-out and a Christian, yet i still love him.

[taneahynes]

@Winning247 who gives a fuck if hes a christian tho

[Winning247]

@taneahynes because religion is a terrible terrible thing. Tom Gabel clearly is a smart man and does not follow is faith blindly, unfortunately alot of people do. The world would be a better place without religion.

[DIYisntDead]

@Winning247 Nah, personally I don't have a faith, but every religion i've study has for the most part been valuable sources of knowledge and ideas of how to treat the people around you better. The world would be a better place without people exploiting and distorting religion for their own motives/gain.

[agentakb]

@DIYisntDead exactly! I would feel much better about religion if I wasn't constantly told that i'm going to hell for not believing in god, or that I'm wrong, etc. Believe what you want, just don't preach it to the unwilling

[breannenyquist]

@agentakb Why have this conversation on here? just enjoy :)

[WeAreLivimItUp]

@Winning247 You're retarded

[yesboss2000]

sorry guys, i think this is shit, just a guy shouting

[extrasum]

@yesboss2000 Yeah, I kinda agree.

[Winning247]

@yesboss2000 i disagree

[Winning247]

@yesboss2000 go listen to him sing Impact

[iRUSel]

@Winning247 nice advice, dude. i hope he also would like "walking is still honest" from s/t 12''.

[podisracer]

[DeapPolitical]

[myshitusername]

YEH IT'S A HORSE REM !!

[samisaberle]

the tom without the guitar looks really awkward and nervous

[RouletteDriveCallum]

such a great tune

[CondemnedPatriot]

srsly im not gay, but i think i would make love with tom gabel

[007meepit]

The version I downloaded from itunes just isn't the same

I need to see his FACE.

[weirdcast2]

Two Tom Gabels... The world is now two times better.

[Taanrocks]

Just what the world needs: two Tom Gabels.

[0ldjoy]

Tom Gabel is doing a duet with himself, your argument is invalid.

[smotherme788]

the voice that can bring you to tears; thank you Tom Gabel.

♥

[marcusmaschwitz]

I think this has become my favourite song ... AMAZING!

[kaiserslautern05]

Makes you wanna cry, the art put in to this.

[WritingDisaster]

Magnificent

.

[MykeHoe1]

its sad when these people say Tom Gabel is one of the last "true artists" you must not look into music much, there's so much out there.. Dont get me wrong tom is the shit, and very talented.. just many more just like him out there.. stay off soulja boys page and put some effort into exploring whats out there..

[dstew4242]

Theres a million things to get done today soulja boy wtf!

[HamishInABox]

Holy shit. This is incredible.

[BumPuncher123]

ahhh man. very nice Tom

[totalimmortal157]

This is music. The melody in the beginning gives me chills.

[annak1612]

i also want to have that t-shirt!!

[danecook78]

@annak1612 I found a picture of it online and saved it. Now i'm editing it with photoshop and I'm gonna get it made into a shirt. It's gonna be awesome.

[m1chaelw0rkm4n]

DON'T ABANDON ME!

[kaiserslautern05]

One of the last true artists. So much emotion is his voice alone.

[kaiserslautern05]

One of the last true artists.



[LowBudgetAnimation]

[LukeyTrooper]

His voice is simply amazing.

[zombiesquirrels8D]

[latentsolution]

AM!4LIFE

[Fred2k182]

[tripleJmovies]

Billy Mayes' rebel son?

[tcswed]

damn.

[Cartron5000]

This man is just amazing, and this song just touches my soul

[watzun1995]

ha thnx m8

[watzun1995]

oops lol i meant Gaslight anthem, >.<

[123artofwar]

@watzun1995 Tom isn't in Gaslight, you were right the first time with Against me!

Brian Fallon is the vocalist for Gaslight.

[ffgtfgtr]

@123artofwar And both are absolutely amazing.

[watzun1995]

I'm a first time listener of Tom Gabel and against me, and i must say after only a few songs I;m very  impressed :)

[jonisafreak3]

@watzun1995 let me guess you listened to there shitty new album or stop!? or even worse both

[watzun1995]

@jonisafreak3 no, i don't like the newer stuff

[jonisafreak3]

@watzun1995 Well tell me an "old" album you listened too

[TehAwesomeness]

@jonisafreak3

Saying there is a bad Against Me! album is like saying having sex with a porn star is mediocre. You either dislike sex or don't understand talent.

[jonisafreak3]

@TehAwesomeness Or maybe people just dont want to fuck a pornstar? A band usually has a few crappy albums, it happens to the best of em...

[bitsanddpeaces]

**spontaneously combusts**

[back720sk8er]

i think he should do a duet with tim armstrong...

[peroxidal]

i love tom gabel and everything he stands for. A true hero

[TehAwesomeness]

Dur hur hur hur, Thumbs up if you think I'm cool enough to be the first comment everyone gets angry at because I said something irrelevant to the video but I can get plenty of retards to thumb me up if I say something agreeable instead of intelligent.

[deadenglish]

brings about a new feeling when youve told someone those words... :/

[chelsea300982]

@bluebettle Stop jumping down people's throats that you disagree with. Done.

[sjduane]

Great voice

[tripleJmovies]

I listened to this song baked.

I began to cry.

[burudisalex]

the absolute man

[Halverson]

i hope he plays this in madison on monday for the protests!

[Chailes1]

I like Tom's haircut in this video, but I dont know about Tom's hair cut.

[YourLittleAmpersand]

I love him. Perfect man is perfect.

[The8Grand]

This Might be my favorite song!!

[xoxBreannaxox123]

<333 I love this song so much. Tom has actual talent, which is rare for this music industry.

[tinkleSquirrel]

what a wonderful and sexy voice! :3

[Uekikid]

lol learn to sing in play but thiis is sick

[mathiass1000]

i buy his voice for a buck

[beanisoner]

I didn't know tom gabel was a twin, whats his brothers name?

[jonisafreak3]

@beanisoner i dont really think it is his twin since they both have a sleeve of tattoos. Its just fancy camera work.

[85gslse]

@beanisoner you idiot

[NoahMcCuen]

incredible

[badofcheese]

Underrated? I mean i like him, but I'd say over rated if anything. I just don't quite get it.

[zombiesquirrels8D]

This song has pure feeling :3 I like

[BannedFromHeaven616]

I used to play this song and baby I'm an anarchist on the street during summer.

[azaas]

Everytime i listen to that song i got chills running down my spine ... don't recall if i have already made that comment but this is probably one of the most powerful and full of emotion voices i've ever heard!

[XxMrsMonsterxX]

hes so sexy!

[ScouserAtHeart]

does anyone no what cords hes playing here...i play this song C-G-Am-F with capo on 2nd fret, but this version sounds much better...anyone "I love Tom Gabel"

[InaneKrug]

@ScouserAtHeart Put the capo on the 5th fret, brudda.

[bamfyfe]

not bad, but i was expecting Tom Gaebel lol....

[somenextguy22]

@bamfyfe Lmfao jokes dude i never even knew there was a Tom Gaebel

[jordanandashlyn]

Just got this ep. Its great.

[chelsea300982]

So much better than Soulja Boy. Thumbs up if you can recognize good music.

[bluebettle]

@chelsea300982 stop turning the internet into a music piss fest and stop upvote whoring

[mr1234567809]

@chelsea300982

How can you possible even compare this to soulja boy ?

This is folk punk! soulja boy is crap

[slightlyjosh]

@chelsea300982 really, your gonna compare this to the soulja boy?

[Syddnah]

@chelsea300982 You're comparing to separate genre's. As much as I agree, that's a ridiculous comparison.

[davidmurdaahh209]

@chelsea300982 you are a fucking idiot, holy shit, did you just mention soulja boy on a tom gable song? i hope that was a joke or troll............

[vicekennedy23]

@chelsea300982 I disagree.

[123charliex]

nice.... really nice!!!

[Charredeggs]

i like this one better then the album version, it doesn't have the echo effect :P

[ps2gamer72450]

For the past several years, I've wanted to sing like this man.

[drugaddledmind]

sweet: number 500 to like.

also just want to say: i get it Tom.

[drugaddledmind]

sweet: number 500 to like.

also just want to say: i get it Tom.

[17PAT17]

Who ever disliked this is a tard.

Most underrated person fucking ever. Tom Gabel is king.

[valvanto]

This song goes straight to my heart!

[davidmcferrin]

is the duality of our existance where we costantly deny what we desire in order to satisfy the imagined demands of those closest to us. although it is just in our own minds.

[davidmcferrin]

absolutely. this guy has two sides. his guitar playing cool side, who is impervious to everything in life and his internal dialogue which has fears of being abandonded. he is loud and hard to ignore. after a life of people shying away from his views he's FINALLY found someone who might provide support and he logically feels he might be ignored. althogh thats not the right word.

[kowalski989]

the only thing better than 1 tom gabel is 2 tom gabels

[uberhippie666]

Does anyone else agree with me that this song is incredibly romantic? I do, just my opinion though =]

[sweettime75]

i have the same couch lol

[davidmurdaahh209]

Boners.

[solidjrb]

The real job of a fan is to appreciate an artist's music as they develop and change. I got into Against Me! two years ago, and I love all their songs from Crime to this. Tom's EP is amazing, and if you think he's a sellout, then you never really appreciated Against Me! and their music, you only listened to it because it fit into the social labels you put on yourself. So fuck off, Tom isn't the 'sellout', you are.

[Ligierthegreensun]

@solidjrb Couldn't have said it better myself.

[DeBoWed]

@solidjrb well played my friend, well played.

[abgarrett320]

@solidjrb theres a huge difference between change and hipocracy

[MissBooring]

it is so amazing!

[MasterGaryFan]

Awesome. The only thing missing is 2 more wolves on his shirt.

[azaas]

omfg such a powerful voice....

[rg743]

watch lather repeat

[frosty2010]

@rg743 lol

[willavenged]

11 people are deaf

[alexbalosie]

I tryed a duet with myself. The other me never showed up...

[unknownheros]

@alexbalosie when i did a duet with myself i called myself an asshole

[ignelioo]

@alexbalosie did u called him ?

[algeo1]

@alexbalosie :D



[carotteemond]

Lovee itt so much :) <3

[tooshaq]

this is satan channeling!

[MegaLordCharles]

Who ever cloned tom gabel, I thank you soo much

[drcar176]

This video is brilliant.  Tom and company are great stuff. Never dissappointing.

[judelton]

that was fuckin aaaaaaaawesome!

[CBlindingLights]

Does anyone know what kind of guitar he's playing? I'm sort of new to acoustic, and this is the kind of music I'd want to play.

[pcdavidvs1]

@CBlindingLights - looks to me like it's a Gibson of some kind, not sure on the model though,

[pumpkinheaddeluxe]

Tom has a haunting fuckin voice. You can feel the pain. I know that voice. Half singing, half crying. Fuck yeah. Dont ever stop Tom.

[frankzilla]

i didn't know they were twins

[war8256]

and not to sound like a bitch but knowing the sad state of things and adding in tom's fucking brutally emotionally rich voice and i just wanna cry

[BLANCOisacolor]

HOLY FUCK HE MULTIPLIED!!!!!!!!

[166266366]

I f*ckin love Tom's voice. It's just...you can't put it into words.

[wholigan93]

i cant find the real chords anywhere on the various tab sites and i cant quite make it out from the video. anybody got any ideas? thnx

[AliBoulalaSTP]

genius... just a genius.

[richswerd]

The only thing better than Tom in this video is his twin brother on guitar. Great job boys!

[Eddief09]

I can't understand why you all are calling him a "sell-out" all he is doing is evolving his music and making a name for himself, you'd do the same...

[bairhsnyva]

This brought me back to the days when Against Me mattered.

[floortileproductions]

wow this is really badass

[ToQuota]

I normally like one or two songs from a musician and that's it but something about they way Tom Gabel sings seems so true and so pure. Our parents had Bob Dylan and we were blessed with Tom.

[insanechucky07]

I'm waking up in night terrors Can't stop the future Keeps pushing me ahead I feel the weight of the world crushing down on me And time seems so linear Decisions seem so absolute Yeah it's a harsh realm Yeah it's a harsh realm Don't abandon me Don't abandon me There's a million things to get done today I can't calm down, I can't think straight You give a little bit of time everyone you meet And what do you say for yourself? How much money do you need To give yourself a sense of security?

[Ioriosauras]

Tom Gabel for president?

[MikeSkiera]

@Ioriosauras Nobody for president! especially a sell out.

[caleb40hands]

@MikeSkiera a sellout? god you're worthless

[MikeSkiera]

@caleb40hands Yes, a sellout. God you're worthless.

[paddybowman]

@MikeSkiera seriousy, grow up. you're only affirming why Gabel is disassociating himself with so-called 'punks'.

[MikeSkiera]

@paddybowman because wealth (tickets counted at the door) is more important to him than music.

[OftnPwnd]

@MikeSkiera Pretty much the act of being president anywhere is selling out. Unless you start your own country.

[hk4777]

great talent, great video, great artist.

[IIEnjoi]

FUCK YOU TOM!!!!!!!!

[ImAlex123456789]

@IIEnjoi YES YOUR RIGHT! God forbid anyone try a new direction in music. Screw Tom Gabel for trying something different. Obviously it's only about money now.

[IIEnjoi]

@ImAlex123456789 did you listen to his old stuff? with such meaning and heart in every song and loved the scene... obviously you love his new douche music that completely destroys all of his old music. its sickening. since he did change he has been all over T.V and in mainstream music. He went from a punk loving anarchist into a hate the scene and make punks seem like awful people. FUCK YOU TOM

[hk4777]

@IIEnjoi lol wow well they do have a new drummer that does not know most of thier old stuff he wanted to try something new i went to billy talent when they were touring with them and i lost my voice screaming at him to play miami and he wouldent get over it they will be back to old against me im sure of it

[IIEnjoi]

@hk4777 i highly doubt it, there old drummer left because he knew tom was leaving the punk scene. he didnt wanna sell out, so he left before he lost his values and morals and beliefs. Tom has changed all his views and what hes done theres no going back. he has disgraced punks everywhere.

[ImAlex123456789]

@IIEnjoi yea I did, I agree that it's better but I'm not gonna criticize his new direction just because his views changed. Just because I like his new stuff doesn't mean I absolutely hate the old stuff. Jesus Christ it's people like you that make punk suck. Everything has to be exactly the same.

[IIEnjoi]

@ImAlex123456789 no not at all i love a lot of punk, from the amazing crust punk to the soft folk punk, Toms new stuff is just so off from the punk scene now...
