dudes this is not religious yes he says may gods love be with you but then : i'm even sure anymore if there;s someone in the sun or something like that :D
I like this version a little better than the michael stipe/chris martin version... michael stipe's voice is kinda flat in his version, this one sounds more soothing... though the there's no other like the original!
Howie Day sings and writes his own stuff as well as very good covers like this. Excellent stuff and more vivid than the original for me so more pleasing on the ear. Thanks.
wtf this song is shit compared to the original.. but its fucking good cover, but a cover is never better than the original. ever. as i said its a good cover. but far from better. what makes joseph arthur's song so good is its raw sound. its moving words and his ability to put god in his work while being against modern Christianity, no matter how new howie day is or young. or the riseing star he is. hell never top some one at there own masterpice. nor can joe top howie. haha
howie day is the most underrated artist hes so amazig he can do covers of any songs but he dont have 2 cuz his own songs are guines my favorite artist
Hey i fuckin love this songs and pretty much any song played on scrubs aye lol you guys should check one of our songs out, its nothing compared to this but i recon its prety good :)
also you have to keep in mind that this recording is kinda outdated, howie has matured vocaly in the past few years, if he where to sing this today it would sound quite different i think. for the better that is! :P
this version really sucks if you know joseph arthur's original... he just doesn't have the voice for this song. don't get me wrong "collide" is a great song but he will never be as good as joseph arthur
personally, I like joseph arthurs version better, but both versions are so different, that it's really a matter of preferences. but one thing I really don't like about this evrsion: it's the wrong voice for the notes. not everyone can sing everything and i think it doesn't fit to well
I don´t know. I think i´ve got it of my friend. Download the programm DVDvideoSoft. You have to paste the llink of this video then it will download it.
it featured in scrubs. the episode when Dr Cox's son Jack was christened and Cox's religious sister was in town for the event.i think it was season 5.... that's where we first heard this song.
this version isnt anywhere near Joseph Arthurs version! Neither the voice nor the rhytm is as good as Joseph's.. but good try though, and i certainly couldn't do it better :P
The version with michael stipes of R.E.M. and chris martin of coldplay do a very good version. They have a live version that was preformed on Austin City Limits when coldplay was on and then they did a studio version for Grey's Anatomy. Both very very good
that doesn;t even make sence. This is what i hate about religious people! I could say the same thing to you... "You don't believe in god, you just think you do" But I'm not going to because we atheists like to leave people to their own devices. Dont be such an ass and stop forcing things on people and thinking you know their feelings more than them, even the so-called-jesus didn;t do that.
Well I'm not religious but I would say that in the lyrics he is in not way trying to impose or preach his beliefs but to convey his feelings of goodwill in the most honest way to whoever the song is referring too. I know religious people can be a bit touchy and they are rightly ridiculed but the non-believers shouldn't obsess over any mention of god and look at the context. This song is emotion, not religion. I think this is the most brilliant song I've ever had the honor to hear!
yeah, there have been many covers. but there's just no way in my opinion that any of them could be better than Joseph's. he got it right the first time.
I first heard this song on 'Scrubs', and I literally stopped what I was doing and turned towards the TV. (I was on the computer) I opened a wordpad window so I could write down the lyrics I heard and look up the song later (I had no internet at the time)
the song makes me cry. bravo Howie, but Joseph owns this song.
i agree with TheBritsRComin21, covers are never as good as the original, but Howie day didnt cover this, more he made it his own. Awesome song, both Howie day and Joseph Arthur are great
No, it's simple. Just him and his guitar...and i love the lyrics. His voice isn't amazing, but it's good for the song. I love it, really truly love it.
Great, thanks for posting, also great pictures, not too many and their nice :)
lol ya its some great lyrics.... too bad Howie day didnt write or make this song, he just covered it off of Joseph Arthur, whose voice is better for the song, im not insulting Howie Day im just saying Joseph Arthur does a better job b/c it is his own song
Excellent tune
