  • WTF hahauhauhauha

  • i love this band so so so so so so so much

  • real alternative

  • I have the sneaking suspicion that this isn't a music video and that someone just followed mewithoutYou around on their daily routine.

  • ive been looking for this song fer days!

  • aarons' beard is so awesome!

  • man i love the ending to this song.

  • haha wow I wasn't expecting that video..such a great song!! Hopefully I'll see them play this tomorrow in Milwaukee. I have absolutely no faith (religion-wise), but I totally dig their spiritual lyrics and biblical allusions. Brother/Sister is, in my opinion, their best sound.

  • i can swear up and down as a christian that i am concerned about atheists ..but lets be honest. its hard to believe a stranger on a computer screen loves you and cares..or maybe you will scoff but i would be first to give my own sacrifice and idle words if you knew what beauty truly is..love you all

    Faith is the highest passion in a human being. Many in every generation may not come that far, but none comes further.

  • @thecitylightsbloom jesus doesnt love you, god isnt real, you worship a myth. that being said, look at my username for one, mewithoutyou is indeed amazing. every album grows and changes with them.

  • @seanwithoutYou thats whack! u have no idea what your talking about! your lost.. sorry buddy. GOD IS REAL.

  • @seanwearsprd Oh good, do you have his cell number, I need to talk to him.

  • @seanwearsprd fuck your faith and your god. it's people like you that give me reason to believe christians are self centered judgmental assholes :) oh you dont believe what I do? you must be a terrible person. it's a joke to honestly believe in god.

  • i saw these guys last night there fucken amazing the best show and setlist i heard and seen everyone has to see them at least once

  • Great musicians, great song-writers, and they express they're views on life through their music. That's true talent. That's mewithoutYou.

  • People shouldn't let religious views get in the way of enjoying good music. This is just an all around good band. Who cares what they believe or who they pray to when they go home.

  • I'm a pantheist, and I feel even more connection with mewithoutYou's music than I did when I was a Christian. Seeing them for the fourth time next week.

  • According to Wikipedia, the lyrics explore Judeo-Christian themes. The Weiss brother's are of Jewish descent, but raised in a Sufi Muslim household. Their mother converted from the Episcopal church, and their father converted from Judaism.

    Weiss also stated he doesn't view the band as a Christian band.

    I don't think they've expressed adhering to a particular religion.

  • However, I just read an interview where it seems to me that Aaron Weiss IS in fact a Christian. I haven't found a direct statement, but I think he is.

  • is that his real mom in the photo haha?

  • YOU ARE ALL WRONG! He is a Harrier like the rest of us, GET IT RIGHT!!!

  • This is actually a jewish band, but the vocalist follows has christian beliefs. So.... technically theyre a jews for Jesus.

  • @milliem85 Look it up, The lead singer and his mom were actually Sufi's.

  • i love their originality there just plain out good music..

  • rofl

  • He's actually a Scientologist. No joke.

  • @johanthepirate hes definetly a christian.

  • LOL whoever said he is islamic is RETARDED. He is a self proclaiming believer in Jesus Christ. Do your homework Nightbaem.

  • @emoted522

    Uhh...

    "Guitarist Mike Weiss has been quoted as saying that the themes of the album reflect a time in vocalist Aaron Weiss' life where he is, "...sort of revisiting [religion] and holding himself up to those teachings that there's no one religion that's going to be the only way to God...""

  • every song is lyrical genius! mewithoutyou is the greatest!!

  • Aaron actually is Islamic, and most of these songs are not that hes religious it was just a point in his life where he was confused about what to believe and what to think.

  • its not only his voice but he amazes me with his lyrivs they are amazing...i love them..they actually are meaningfull..

  • I love his voice when he sings. "God became the glass, all things left are emptiness."

  • If you like this, you should lookup the song 1983 by the band Medical Center. It's a pretty amazing band.

  • im Anti-theist and i love mewithoutyou. you can dismiss good quality music like this just because you dont agree with the underlying message. these guys are incredible musicians and thats all that matters.

  • @TremulantMannequin ur an idiot just sayin

  • @wetnoodle666 Why is that?

  • @wetnoodle666 Please do explain. I would LOVE to hear your reasoning for this statement.

  • @TremulantMannequin tell me ur not a fagget but u like getting f"d in the @ss

  • im not even christian and i fucking love mewithoutyou

    they are super incredible

  • We are all in GODS favor.. As I ride through the city on my fixed gear I play this song at max volume!!! I think about the beauty GOD has created and it makes me raise my hands in all his glory!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!! I can't imagine mewithoutyou....

  • @jamesjohnayala That's good man, but you shouldn't raise your hands in glory while you're driving xD Unless you can steer with your feet.

  • 1:58 to 2:36 seems like a porno.

  • Lulz.

  • probably my favorite music video of all time. love the synchronized swimming!

  • Simply beautiful.

  • love mewitoutyou's music! it speaks the truth... its so deep.

  • I like the original nice and blue more, but this is, of course, fantastic.

    mewithoutYou has been one of my favorite bands for about four years now and they'll never get old.

  • so rad

  • i'm going to be captain obvious and state that i think something got removed..

  • Dude look at our conversation now lol, people are going to see this and be like, what just happened here. I think its safe to say that we disagree on certain points and leave it at that. If you want to talk some more, PMs are good too.

  • Wow.

  • Enough of the God talk.

    This video is so great!

    Shower scene hands down. I laugh every time.

    Way to go balls out guys.

  • GOD RAGE!

  • dude come one thats just insensitive if you really are a christian you should love them and want them to join you in heaven and not condemn them. Thats not what the bible says at all

  • thats messed up dude

  • I don't have the slightest clue as to this debate of the historical Jesus has to do with the song, but yes, there were historians that refer to a man named Jesus. Feel free, work on your scholarship, check out Josephus.

  • Josphus has also have been proved as a forgery. All other historians only refer to the word "christ"(only a handful of times mind you) which at that time only meant the "cross".

  • What's your citation? I do not know who you reference but if you are referring to the historian Josephus, then you make me smile. Generally, very few scholars (including secular), doubt the existence of the historical Jesus (the debate as to "who" that person was is the key). Research is not something that takes two minutes, but a lifetime. Then again, there are those whose scholarship leaves a blank reply when one mentions Bede or believes Jupiter is made up of pink marshmallows.

  • ...and in the end with respect to the context of the band and this video, who cares? This conversation might as well degenerate down to talk about Brett Favre. "Wait, are they wearing Adidas? Adidas sucks... they should wear Chuck Taylor's."

  • he exists enough for people to believe which counts just as much

    what matters is how he is believed in

  • Yep, we MAKE things real, whether or not they do/did exist.

    "Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?" - Albus Dumbledore

    Mass insanity really...

  • Don't bring Harry Potter to a religious debate my friend.

  • then socrates never existed.

  • @abeyantbirds then budha, aristotle, plato, and ghandi never existed.

  • Haha. that doesn't mean anything to me, brother. Jesus didn't have much impact on history at all. The things that he did during his life on earth mainly affected those directly around him. Historians won't pick up on a guy doing miracles and healing people and then was executed. Did He save me even today? you better believe it. but historians then could have understandably not heard of him. how many even talk about Nazareth to begin with?

  • Hey bro. Even if you take a quick glance at wikipedia, it'll tell you that "A great majority of biblical scholars and historians accept the historical existence of Jesus."

  • NAYLOR'S RUN

  • uhhhh, mewithoutyou is sooooo good.

  • If you want to discredit the existence of Christ you will also need to discredit the existence of other historical figures such as Alexander, etc

    And you are quite right when you say that even if we could prove that he existed that would not prove the existence of God. The Gospels mention a great deal of people who never had faith in him.

    Jesus called himself God. If you do that you are crazy, not a good teacher. So you either believe him or think he is a crazed man, there is no middle ground

  • @onlyhighwhendriving

    Jesus is not simply an object of the mind, if thats the term you want to use to define characters such as santa. Santa never existed in history (as we think of santa in pop culture). Jesus did. He died on a cross and rose from the dead, was and is worshiped (even pagan historians attest to this - cf letter to trajan) so to put him on the same level as santa and the easter bunny is historically, philosophically, and theologically inaccurate.

  • All of the "evidcece" for Jesus can easily being refuted with looking further into the merit of your sources. look at both sides.

    And even if Jesus existed. Even if we were 100% sure he was here. Even if there was no doubt in anyone's mind about his existence it prooves nothing.

    Jesus was just a man. Like Muhammad. And Buddha. And Gandhi. He was just a philosopher. He was just a magic man.

    His existence does not prove God's existence and it does not prove an afterlife.

  • The Whole shower scene cracks me up

  • NO EMBED???? CMON TOOTHANDNAIL!!!

    I NEeeeeEDS THIS!

  • love the music but why all the unnecessary speedo action? i guess it must be hard to toe the line while everybodys busy telling you how great you are

  • where can you get a necklace like he has at 3:36 ?

  • mardi gras in new orleans XD

  • Knowing Aaron...okay, well, I don't know him, but I know about him...he probably either made it himself, or bought it from some little old lady selling necklaces on the street! :)

  • make it u dumby

  • brilliant

  • 2:26 always cracks me up

  • This song is great high, opens up the eyes and you get to focus on it, its amazing.

  • Lol, I have this band's discography and I still don't know if I like them.

  • they most certainly are an acquired taste

  • Not for me.

    I listen to a lot of hardcore punk and folk-punk and I'm extremely Atheist and I was instantly hooked with these guys.

  • hey man, not hating or anything but whats your reasoning in being atheist?!

  • hey man, not hating or anything but whats your reasoning in calling my beliefs into question?!

  • i really just wanted to know about it. to understand it better.

  • Mystery. Stop being a dick. Somebody asks you why you are an atheist you give them an answer, instead of pompously responding with rhetorical dribble.

    Personally, I am an atheist because after following the Chrisitan faith for 15 years, I realized that if I believe in one object of the mind(Jesus) I must believe in all of them. I must believe in santa. I must believe in the tooth fairy.

    All of us are atheist about most of the gods humanity has ever created, some of us just go one god further

  • I wanted to make sure of his/her intentions before possibly wasting time explaining my positioning only to have my explanation be met with pleas of knowing Christ and letting him in.

    Numerous Christian expositions aimed to save my eternal soul has left me weary of inquisitive and prying Christian folk.

    Also, I do not admire being the recipient of anecdotal and fervent religious diatribes. I assume you are the same.

    Also, I did peacefully discuss my views with senorjack through messages.

  • Fair enough.

  • Maybe he's worried about your eternal destiny. hehe.

  • diT0

  • I wish I had this band's discography, I can't find any of their albums anywhere...

  • This is on the "Brothers, Sisters" album, and it is awesome! "A Glass Can only Spill What it Contains" is my favorite.

  • If you look up lust in the dictionary, it directs you to this video.

    So incredibly sexy.

  • hehehhe. agreeeeeeed.

  • Best. Music. Video. Ever.

    EVER.

  • so awesome, im seeing them on the 20th!

  • dude! thats awesome!!

  • Are you not embarrassed of that comment?

  • what a cool band. i like their originality

  • DUDE! haha this video was recorded right down the street from me in the local park and Y haha that's so cool

  • 2:26 gets me every time

  • i get it now. i was once the wine (aaron) , you were the wine glass. (jesus). when he held him.

  • No, I think that line refers to an ex-girlfriend, because later "God became the glass," and that seems to have ended the relationship.

  • oh i understand. kind of. either way its a great song and jesus loves them.

  • mwY4evr!

  • Wow, what an eventful shower time.

    I like this video.

  • Here's one band I never wanted to see in speedos.

    Amazing song, though.

  • aarons beard is exactly what i wish i could grow

  • this band is genious

  • Finished in gold and can't tell time.

    Materialism is a shallow sea and gold cannot float even within the smallest depth of waters.

    God bless you mewithoutYou, God bless your fans and God bless those that are not your fans.

  • did you write that? thats pretty good. or you quote something.

  • Yes. Thanks, friend.

  • What. The. Heck? xD

  • Amazing poet I say.

  • i hit the wrong hand haha but i agree amazing poet :D

  • my friend introduced me to them, its fucking amazing music.

  • amen .

  • i love the ending.

  • this video is kinda dumb. i was hoping for a more beautiful video.

  • I found the fat 40-somethings in red speedos very beautiful.jk

  • there not 40-somethings. I'm pretty sure there late 20's. And most of them are pretty scrawny.

    anyways...

    I dont think the video was meant to be "beautiful". I felt it represented the direction the band has taken in a humorous way;

    it starts with their intense training (their early albums ) and then they end up doing some strange anti-macho water-aerobics thing.

  • Unless what they're trying to imitate is synchronized swimming, which is actually really really hard to do (though it looks easy enough from the outside). Though thanks for interpreting the video...I couldn't figure out what it was trying to portray but your interpretation makes as much sense as anything.

  • this video is kinda dumb. i was hoping for a more beautiful video.

    I feel you

  • i love how this correlates so well with mewithoutYou's development over the years.

    and the ending...

    how "God became the glass" and the "forget all about me" took the place of "remember me" in Nice and Blue from A=>B Life

    idk it's like a resolution and finally letting go of something in his past

  • never caught that before. Thanks!

  • The Heavens above

    I feel HIS love, dance, friend

    Dance, to show HIS joy!

  • oh wow that was awesome.

  • these guys are so cute.

  • I believe SEXY is the correct terminology.

    P.S.-We have on new video.

  • god bless mewithoutYou.

    every song they sing is the same one i always wished i could make

  • great music to listen to when feeling sad

  • mewithoutYou is the only christain band i will listen to. unless you count brand new as christian. best lyrics ever. & i think without aaron's voice they would be just any other band with good lyrics. his voice= mewithoutYou.

  • there are some other good christian bands... Brand New is definitely not a christian band, but they are unbelievable

  • The lead singers voice is soo enchanting

  • mewithoutyou is a tight band and they do w/e floats their boat everyone should do the same and if u dont agree to that saying well then have fun replying back only response i will give will be trash

  • aaron weiss ALMOST writes better than dylan

  • No matter what your religion teaches you, I'm sure it teaches that we are all brothers regardless of our faith.

    So, love your brother, even if you don't love his faith.

    God bless, Allah bless, Yin and Yang bless, Ra bless, etc. etc.

    Love is the fundamental of every faith, and mewithoutYou understands true faith.

  • WORD UP.

  • Hello all, I've been deeply getting into eastern philosophy and especially Buddhist/Hindu texts and it has made me realize how closely related anyone that truly pursues god no matter what religion you say you are. We are all taking different pat
