Shine Down- 45 Music video

[DisturbedDeified]

@PeanutButerJellyTim1 youre right, the video is shit but in no way does it make more sense than the real video

[SharpShooters2929]

lol the gun is all in his eye

[PeanutButerJellyTim1]

Hahaha this shitass video makes more sense than the original one there's actually a gun here

[CRAZYG0777]

Ok 1 it's a metaphor not really having a gun to ur eye and 2 dont start singing the song and banging your head that was stupid

[JohnMc429]

– the song is basically about looking at yourself in the mirror , and realize that you’re gonna have to make yourself happy the 45 isn’t an actual literal term for a gun, I used it as a metaphor for the world, the .45 is actually the world and what it hands you every day of your life. comment postedby a bigfan these are brents own words

[darkone117]

nice video dude.

[marvinosch]

Why didnt you shoot?

[frenicas]

this guy is just stupid or he had some thing worst

[reaper15c]

staring down the barrle is a metaphor u morron....u don't get what the song is about. It's talking about how hard life is. He's says "what ever happened to the young mans heart?" it means thats life is so bad that it feels like he's staring down the barrel of a .45...it's not talking about suicide, it's talking about how hard life is. u're just too stubborn to realize that, i know what it's like to almost take my life, and i can tell u that thats not what this song is about.

[Viaos123]

@reaper15c all songs are up for how the hearer interprets it. But he is def talking about shooting himself in the head. you dont get much more plain and simpler than a .45

[420happychappy]

It is a metaphor!!! his life of drugs and tuff struggles in life he either has to clean his act up or he will end up dead. his daily duties with drugs was like staring down the barrel of a gun

[gaslane]

there is no way in hell this is talking about suicide, its kinda talking about growing up a bit and some problems in life, that doesn't even relate to suicide

[Budatankable]

okay here is What the song Stands for It's basically about how hard life is, and trying to understand who you are as a person. 45 stands for the world, and how at times it can feel like a gun. It's about being comfortable with yourself, which is one of the hardest things to do. "nobody knows what I believe."

[sweetsacreficekimm]

this songs not about suicide! just saying for the idiots who think it does

[MrMonkeymanablert]

thats real fuckin neato

[JefferytheGirrafe]

this video fails

[spensereischen]

fuckin idiot

[TheAdioskater321]

Definatly can relate to this...

[vance030190]

not going to lie but this video is horrible. u ruined the song. by making this video. lol

[landontk]

what a freeking stupid vid!!!

[tazblzr88]

great fuckin song.... says it all in this video

[arkansasfan61]

haha the "blood" looks like the wax from the candle

[MoonKissedDruid]

*sighs* My husband committed suicide with his father's .45. I was refused details for the most part. A blessing, I assume. I was told he put the gun in his mouth, and pulled the trigger. (Sexual abuse for a minimum of 15 years by both parents. He was 23 when he left this world and me last September.) This video is hard enough to watch. Suicide is never something to joke about. I wish people would get that.

[wyattsday]

wow a bb gun whats he going to do

[yungjoshandjeoffrey]

Killshot, although a .45 would have a bigger "mess". By the way, your a shitty actor.

[smokeater5150]

Great song. Can't kill yourself with a Crossman BB gun though.

[speeddammit]

Nicely done.

[MnM3033]

I like this.... It's real deep. Good job

[jlizer]

OMG mrmcmmsmems81 ur gay. See how I owned you by calling u fgt on teh internets?

[MrMmc81]

YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG. And Jlizer, you are a huge homo. Kl Yrslf.

[jlizer]

First of all if you really want to kill yourself right you should put the gun in your mouth and aim up through your palate. Try that advice.

[btomlin411]

wow. that was the gayest thing ever. he should have pulled the trigger after 15 seconds to spare us all for this shitty video. fag!

[Papajohn36]

WOW u suck

[thecritic1136]

okay this sucked like majorly sucked i acully just made an account just so i could tell you how much you sucked and you sucked, pshh i could make a better music video for westside story with a lamp and a shoe then you did with this thats how bad you sucked the only real good thing about this video was wen you shot yourself cause it stoped your crappy acting skills for the rest of the video let alone the "awsome" special effects of ketchup on your forhead...so um yea you sucked...

[Repofanscooper]

i did the same thing but not for this vid

[Alebsua]

[DainiusLTU4EVER]

[mmfootball13]

ok. if someone was holding a gun to their head. they wouldnt hold it like that. lol

[303oldskool]

Video sucks. . . but you have to understand maybe be that low and feel the song for anything SO FUCK OFF!!

[AmplifireCampfire]

u should have just pulled the trigger. the video is horrible

[DumpLetterHere]

low budget video pellet gun instead of a real one a real one would have made it way better

[PROxFESSxIONAL]

Did any of you write this song or did the band tell the meaning behind if not then its open to any interpretation that can be made. So STFU

[Xbvrx]

the video really isint that good you dont realy do anything

[happygirl1013]

good video and he's gonna accidentally kill him self by shootin his self

[FARMERBARLEY]

i really like this song! <3*SHINEDOWN*<3

[a1cmartin08]

just a side note, that's actually a pellet pistol. had one growing up. and yes this song talking more about dealing with life's struggles.

[clayton1979]

@a1cmartin08 Isnt this song talking about how he murdered someone else? He is staring down the barrel of a 45 swimmign throught the ashes of another life. Doesnt that mean he is still pointing the gun down at a dead mans body? The guy he just shot? He said he is swimming in the ashes of ANOTHER LIFE. Not his own life. Please correct me if Im wrong. Thanks

[GarthVarnish]

@clayton1979 the ashes he is swimming in is his own, kinda. its the life he had before it was burnt to ash and he is between the life of ash, and the barrel.

[69AdamMan]

Lmao!!! thats like the stpidest thing i have ever seen of the 19 years of me being alive one less idot in the world

[usmcspider]

That is how retards like you accidentally shoot themselves...now that would have made a good video... and one less idiot in the world.

[ggsparky]

you don't stair down a barrel of a gun when ur committing suicide. this is a bad interpretation of the song. its definitely about excepting a hard life.

[bambinobatch]

I totally agree with you, the song is about dealing with the struggles of life and living with it.

[verydoozy]

Good try, but you relize the song wasn't meant to literally be taken as a gun to someones head, it was a metaphor.

[Viaos123]

nope it is definatly talking about suicide

[verydoozy]

I'm not saying that it's not talking about suicide, but there is a double meaning behind it

[DefunctPanic]

@verydoozy gotta agree with you, not about suicide...

[pandypants1]

Wow....you did Poke Your Eyeball Down the barrel...

[pitbullboy100]

the lyrics mean a 45 is just another probem and we overcome it

[nykcarly]

if we overcome it then why is there a hole in his head at the end???

[eaognr]

lol The lyrics gos like this: And I'm staring down the BARREL of a 45, There is no barrel in a pistol.

Revolver has a barrel.

[Viaos123]

you fool there is a barrel in a pistol it is just covered

[JollyG3]

@eaognr dude ever gun has a barrel its wat the bullets come out of dont argue with a shooter its not wise but it is a metaphor dude

[Jimmy4881867]

@eaognr a pistol does have a barrel you can change it out for a comp. barrel. barrels that are rifled differently and are more accurate

[Shadow0fDeth]

What the fuck is wrong with you, kid.. fuck.. quit that shit, or I'll tell your mom.

[zaroc237]

idk its a lil skechy its 2 plain u didnt really do anythi stil good try

[killasolda7]

[compaq65462]

[thewindowskid]

this isnt shinedowns cuz the songs not evenabout suicide trust me look i up

[Viaos123]

it definatley is about suicide fool

[thewindowskid]

dude look it up but anyways nice vid

[Bradj54]

you saw my video and emailed me and asked for a review so here I am.you needed more shots within the first minute I saw the entire video minus the blood, don't caption the video you can leave some things to the viewer to figure out. Cut to the photo/paper. This would have speed things up. Overall decent work, it just needed some movement and the gun to the head was a bit much.I may seem a little harsh but I'm tough on my work too. Keep doing what you enjoy doing. Thanks for watching mine

[Viaos123]

no by all means im always striving to be better thank you

[XxVorinxX]

Great vid man

[Viaos123]

thanks you

[blackbanjoist96]

I'm not a big fan of shine down, but good job V-dawg with the video editing, and a suicidal enterpretation jumps right into the ears of most people that hear this wretched song.

[Viaos123]

thanks

[albino267]

the song is NOT about suicide. The 45 mentioned in the song is a reference to the world brent means u have the world in your hand and u have to take the oppurtunity to do your dreams with it

[Viaos123]

Well it talks about life troubles and how no one knows his beliefs also changes in life and pain. one of the lines being staring down the barrel of a 45 as you know. In a nut shell is screams suicide to me but thats just my interpretation of it thats for the watching,commenting, and rating.

[amen665]

damn... thought it was the actually video lol ^^

btw... DONT DO IT ^^

[BrianHBlackson]

YO V ! Well done my friend! Well scripted and edited. COOL SONG TOO! Keep up the good work, ill be watching!
