  • was his brothers name tom or daniel

  • Tom did kill himself, Alex did an interview on the topic for AP a couple of years ago stating that he did. Anyway, it's none of our business, if you really respected him and the rest of the Gaskarth family then you'd stay out off it, I'm sure it's a touchy subject and they don't want to be reminded of it all the time.

  • He DID NOT commit suicide

  • cant listen to this song without crying!

  • What happend to his brother?<3

  • @HollyLouiseeMarsdenn His brother killed himself, but acording to the guy below your comment he died because he was an alcoholic, one of the two, so he stayed strong and wrote this song...

  • A while back in a magazine interview, Alex said his brother was an alcoholic who did not commit suicide, but rather died from his constant drinking. There are many people that do actually kill themselves often though. I understand it's a song that Alex wrote, but let's remember everyone else who has passed, not just Thomas

  • It's touched me very hard. I am crying

  • ive listened to this song sooooo many times and today was the first time it made me cry. Why?

  • Aww,I really feel for him. Poor guy </3

  • This song really touched me..

    every time i listen to it i can't help but cry..

  • @iforgottoaskalex I know how you feel, exactly. an extremely close friend of mine did this week, I miss him so much but ATL's keeping me strong <3

  • <3 awww

  • :'c

    I lost my brother this year three days before my birthday. This song brings me to tears. I love it. :3

  • :'( i crieed :'''(

  • This song reminds me of my Granddad, who starved himself to death just short of two years ago :'( Rip Granddad 12th Jan 1930 - 13th November 2009 ♥

  • R.I.P Tom E Gaskarth <3. </3

  • This song just makes me think of my friend who committed suicide 2 years ago. It was really hard to get through but ATL kept me strong <3

  • This song makes me bawl everytime i hear it after losing my dad and 2 guys i considered brothers.... I <3 ATL

  • @2:47 who is she?

  • @Viona1641 his gf,Lisa (:

  • @PoutyScouty21 wow cute :3 thanx for reply :)

  • @Viona1641 no problem! (: 

  • Even though I have not had a death in my family, I really feel this song. It has so much emotion. It's just so beautiful. This was the first song by them I heard (right before Dear Maria), and I cried that first time. ATL is my favorite band, I always tear up when th is song comes on. One of my best friends says this song reminds her of her mom somehow...

  • G r.ip

  • such an amazing song. it brought tears to my eyes the first time i heard it <3

  • this song is making me think of my brother (just because it sounds like the type of music he would like). The idiot left today because of the stupidest reason. It could be worse though he could be dead :) If he did somehow get him self killed though i would be so mad at him

  • R.I.P Tom Gaskarth... Alex Is STRONG to sing this with so much POWER in his voice.. Treasure the time you use cause you never know when its gunna end ._. I had a best friend/ Brother die when he was only 26 died in a car crash and i never knew that it would happen excpiacially to him RIP EMERY... Im sorry you had to go... I miss you

  • His brother didnt comit suicide...

  • I've never cried for a song before, and i'll admit....i cried for this one

    It's beautiful <3

  • I cry every time I listen to this song.... Such a beautiful song... So sad ;(

    R.I.P Tomas Gaskarth. -3

  • Tom, we Hustlers love you. </3 You're in our hearts.

    RIP Thomas Gaskarth.

  • AlexAllTimeLow Alexander William

    To set the record straight, my brothers name was Tom. I have no idea who came up w/ 'Daniel'. What you read on tumblr isn't always fact...

    I put that up so that people can finally get the Jist that his brothers name was Tom. R.I.P Thomas Gaskarth <3

  • for everyone who doesnt know his brothers name was tom, not daniel

  • @lulurawrful alexs brothers name was tom not daniel

  • This song makes me cry, practically every time I hear it .. :'( <3

  • I used to not like this song.. But, when i listened to it again and read the lyrics.. and realized the back story of this song.. It definitely changed everything. This song is beautiful and I feel for anyone who has lost a family member or someone close to them. I sit here now, and listen to Alex's voice.. and my eyes begin to water.

  • This makes me sad just reading the lyrics D;

  • My Sister Is My Best Friend. Literally. Shes Probably The Only Person In Ths World That i Funny And Completely Trust. I Cant Even Imagine Life Without Her. If She Died, Id Probably Die Too. I Cant Live Without Her.

  • I can completely relate to what alex has been through. I lost my baby sister at birth then had my older brother kill himself over it. So I lost two of my siblings on the same day. Its been three years & I try my best to get over it. I hope the Alex & his family can do the same & stay strong!!

  • I know this is different to the song, but I'm a mummys boy 100%. I'm always talking to her and I'm always having good laughs with her. When we fall out we instantly become friends again and resume our bond. She is one of the most important people in my whole life and I would die if she passed away. When she does pass I feel I will be strong enough to cope because hopefully it won't be for a long time. I'd most likely make a song dedicated to her and keep her alive in the words <3

  • I love this song. I can understand why Alex cried during an interview. Anyone who's lost a sibling would surely do the same. I know if I lost my brother, I'd be heartbroken. I know you're always supposed to 'hate' your siblings, but my brother is the world to me and I hope nothing ever happens to him. I hope the Gaskarth family is able to recover from their loss. We love you Alex. <3

  • did alex reallly crying during an interview? if so whats it called? this song is so sad :( R.I.P Daniel <3

  • just wondering do you think you could send to me or post a link to the images you used?

  • Has anyone found the video where Alex is crying?

  • i listened 2 this song years ago, never knowing the meaning

    until my favorite ATL song led me here, where, in the video he breaks down crying during an interview, i tried to find the video, but it led me here, and the description shows y he almost fell over crying towards the middle of the interview

    RIP Daniel Gaskarth

  • @XDkittykat what interview is that everyone talks about it but i cant find it

  • This makes me so sad, because it reminds me of my mother's suicide. For about 2 years leading up to her death, she countlessly tried to take her life, which I wasn't really aware of because I just thought she was "really sick" because that's what the "Grown-ups" would tell me. I wish I could have her now. The subject always gets me in tears. it's nice to know that someone understands the pain, especially when it's my favorite band.

    ~RIP mom, RIP daniel

  • At 0:53 I nearly had a heart attack!!My name is Haley!

  • the pic at 2:38 was alex crying?...he looks so cute hes my favorite butt i also like jack and this and jasey rae r my fav songs so deep and u can relate to them :) good job all time low

  • the story of Alex's brother is so sad and i cry every time i think about it. if my sister killed her self, i would probably do the same. it's good that Alex stayed strong, although i don't have a clue as to how he did it, for this he is my hero and i have full respect for him. Alex i love you!

  • i love alex, and i've loved this song for awhile, its beautiful <3

  • @kittyjcz No one knows for sure why he did it, since the family kept everything confidential, but Alex mentioned that not long before he died they had a big fight about Alex's fame and all the attention he gets. Apparently Daniel was an attention seeker though, so some people were assuming it was to outshine him.

  • @MissAttitude2231 He died in 2004. :D

  • @TheLastDuchess21 if he died, whyd you put a smiley face? lol

  • i cry every time i listen to this song. ik what it feels like to loose someone. my grandfather passed away when i was only 4 years old. i just miss him so much. :'(

  • i didnt lose a brother :/ but i did lose one of my closest friends and i never really told him how much i felt for him :(

    i had a secret crush on him and he's gone now :( i wish i could have had the strength to tell him

    every time i hear this song i think of you jake :(

  • My brother means everything to me we're great friends I couldn't bare it if I lost him :'( I feel so sorry for Alex, ALL MY RESPECT FOR THIS SONG <3

  • i literally get goosebumps every time i listen to this.

  • the first song that has ever made me cry

  • this song is so beautiful, i always cry when i hear this.

    R.I.P. Daniel Gaskarth.

    i feel so sorry for alex, but he sings so good!

  • Who the FUCK has the Audacity to dislike a song about a death in the family? 

  • @piinoieboiie it's a matter of opinion on the song, people have the right to like and dislike what they want, stop judging.

  • @piinoieboiie AMEN. Anyone who does has no heart.

  • I don't know if this is 100% true, but I think the reason why Daniel Gaskarth committed suicide was because Alex was getting all of the attention because he and his band were getting a lot of attention and he wasn't getting any at all. Friends were only being friends with him to meet Alex. His parents would pay attention to Alex more.

    I think Alex and his brother were in a fight before Daniel passed.

    Which explains the 'I miss you, I'm so sorry."

  • check out my page im alex from TakingBackYesterday and i have a rwa demo of my first song up and would love it if i could get some pointers.

  • whats the link to the pic @1:44/ thats adorable

  • I miss my mamaw now:(

  • how can those 2 people dislike this?

    it's an AMAZING song,

    they must be chavs..

    (R.I.P Daniel Gaskarth)

  • i love this song it got me through alot of pain that i went through this song makes you think about everything

  • This song helped me through so much pain and agony thankyou alex you saved my life when no one else cared...

  • I was talking to Alex the other day, I didn't know how his brother died, I asked but I said if you didn't want to answer Its fine.

    It must still be really painful for him.

    R.I.P Daniel

  • @IAmNotOnFireYet ...how do you know Alex?

  • @MeetMeOnOceanAvenue A friend of a friend.

  • The two dislikes = people who've never had real pain in their life.

  • This song is part of the reason I'm still alive today.....

  • this song reminds me of my cousin John who commited suicide when in 2003. Everyone in our town who knew him really misses him and I wish I knew him better.

  • This song really helped me through a lot. Thank you.

  • :')

  • A few weeks ago my cuzin thats like my big bro ODed trying to kill himself. We saved him just in time but this song helped me make it through. If I would have lost him I dont know what I would do.

    This song has been through so much with me verytime I'm going through something this song helps eas the pain. All Time Low is one of my all time favorite bands. They have such amazing music everyone can relate to.

    If this is the first/only ATL song you've hear listen to more you'll love them! =)

  • kept putting this song on replay... told myself i wasnt gonna cry... I ended up doin it anyways...

    "Sing...Me...To...Sleep...."

    <3

  • AWW :(((( this song is sososososso sad, Alex is amazing, especially for writing this<33, I literally got tears, R.I.P Daniel Gaskarth

  • I heard Taylor Swift said Alex made this just for attention...

    My ATL sis heard about tht..

    This song makes me cry :'( RIP Daniel Gaskarth

  • This song made sadder than all of Eminem's deep songs put together.

    So sad. I love you Alex. <3

  • @LilMizzFibz Yes. I love Eminem, and his songs are so meaningfull, but Alex just made this song so extremaly meaningfull, and emotional.

  • Thinking about this song always tears me up inside

  • what actually happened to alex's brother? i dont know :S

  • @arsenal4eva3234

    commited suicide.....:(

  • I'm getting Sing Me To Sleep tattooed on my hip in memory of my best friend who ended her life the same way as Daniel Gaskarth.

    RIP Kaylah and Daniel.

  • @Zaraamore ik this may be a little out of place..but do you know exactly how daniel killed himself or do you mean they both committed suicide?

  • "make it a sweet, sweet goodbye. it could be for the last time and its not right..." :'(

    "sing me to sleep, i'll see you in my dreams, waiting to say, "i miss you, i'm so sorry." :'( :'(

  • One of the most amazing songs ever.

  • i love the facked that even the most happiest looking people have emotional and hurt inside of them its sad that Alex's brother Jack died and i think it made the band alot stronger from what happend im glad he made this song for him because one its sweet and two it tell's me to love my family and anything could happen to anyone of them at any moment.

  • @ciarra3333 pretty sure alex's brothers name was daniel

  • @coogas1 well idk if you read all of the comments then you will figure out i got the wronge name ok! so sorry i i got a name wronge you dont have to be like that to point it out o the whole freaking world.

  • all time low got me through a depression state...hearing that even the most happiest people have hard times (like alex's brother who commited suicide) just lets you know that you can make it alright through life

  • this is so sad.

  • i dont see how this song could possilbly have any dislikes.

  • I can never listen to this song without crying buckets. You can see that it means so much to him, and that he put everything into this song. He deserves so much respect.

  • I'm about to cry! I forgot how emotional I get during this song! I love it so much though <3

  • Alex Gaskarth's got it all.

    The looks, the voice, the song writing ability. Everything.

    This song shows a lot about the kind of person he is, I'm in love with him <3

  • nooo i think there but buddyz :) and i have no problem with that but they r really close and its sweet how much they used to depend on eachother =) i have to say no matter how much u tell urself ur ok and u want to be alone its never true theres always someone that u let into ur life and for them its eachother

  • Everytime I hear this song I tear up or cry it's amazing. You can feel what he felt through this song. He is an amazing song writer.

  • This Song Kept Me From Suicide, I KNow Alot Of People Must Say That. But Right Before I Was Going To Commit Suicide I Was Emailing Goodbye Letters To My Friends And Lisening To My Fav Band All Time Low. I Lisened To This Song Seeing As I Had Never Heard It Before Even Though I Was A HUGE Fan Of All Time Low. IT Made Me Heavy IN The Chest. It Made Me Feel As Though This Is How He Would Feel With Out Me. Even Though He Doesnt Know I Exist. Still Dan. You May Have Killed Yourself. But You Saved Me.

  • Ohmygod...this song makes me cry everytime i listen to it..when i hear it my stomach just feals sick because the song makes me relaize the pain he went through,

    this song is absolutley beautiful.

  • @courtneyisamazing1 Same here :'(

  • Haven't listened to these guys in Ages. Never knew his brother commited suicide. D: I know how he feels. :T

  • i gotta agree with the comments below, im a guy and i teared up when i heard this song a couple years back and im man enough to admit it, these guys are #3 on my favorite bands of all time, i hope i can meet em one day.

  • @insanejoe55 can you just be my boyfriend?

  • @lawlkennedy lol xD but i dont even know u haha.

    ur very pretty tho :)

  • reading the lyrics made me cry, it's hard trying to forget my cousin, i know what Alex went through. :'(

  • i never knew this song was about that nor did i know something like this happened to his brother, omg im hysterically crying right now :(

  • @Kelsey4724 thats how i feel everytime i hear this song, cheers mate

  • i'm 16 and my bro is 13

    we're close but never once in my life do i remember saying "i love you" to him :(

    after hearing this song i know that has to change

    if my bro died i think i'd lose my mind, he means the world to me. Alex is a strong amazing person to be able to smile and laugh and use his music to create a beautiful tribute to his brother. the emotion in his voice says it all

    RIP Daniel Gaskarth

  • @RedKingCommandz

    If you're close though I'm sure he knows you love him :) Always remind him though, everybody needs that reminder.

    I'm not that close with my brother, he's 19, i'm 14. Not once did I remember saying "I love you" you him. He tried to commit suicide last year, because he didn't think anybody loved him. We're still not close, it's the same as it's always been. I think now though, we both know how much we love each other.

  • @RedKingCommandz i know that you added this comment a long time ago and you might not even read this, but alexs brothers name was tom. 

  • this is an amazing song, which is in fact for alexs brother. but his brothers name was TOM not DANIEL.

  • @BNOWSC3 sorry, i could of sworn it was Daniel, i'll check that out.

  • I wish i had a third of the talent that my hero and idol (alexander William Gaskarth) has. He's is truly a gift from god!!!!!!!

  • i love this song. he put so much emotion into it. i love them

  • 1:46 ♥

  • im confused were there 2 alexs ? 

  • Its very inspiring because even with his brother no longer alive he still holds his head up high and is a very incredible artist

  • I love this song..... It's just terrible what had to happen for him to have writen this song! RIP alex's bro

  • this song made me realize you never know what you have until it's gone. god bless daniel gaskarth. hes in a better place

  • this song makes me cry i feel bad for him ),: WE LOVE YOU ALEX!

  • Everytime I need a sad song to listen to here is the first song that comes to my mind. I love this song. I cry everytime. I'm so sorry, Alex.</3 It's heartbreaking. It's so sad. This is Alex and his family's business no one elses. This is a beutiful song.

  • How can you even begin to dislike this.?

    Seriously.?

    This is like an amazing song.

    I love Alex, and feel very bad for him.

    About his brother.

  • aww thats so sad!!! :'(

  • this song is so sad. and TheSophiieee94 alex and jack r so close because 1: they r best friends and they di have the brotherly bond that alex lost. its so sad i really feel 4 alex. his brother will always be rememberd.

  • Everytime I hear this song I start crying...I almost took my life and this song makes me really think... <3

  • I nearly cry every time I hear this song. But it's one of my favorite songs by them, so I listen to it a lot. "We All Fall Down" is another really sad song about the same subject by them. Idk why, but I really like the sad songs.

  • in the lyrics does anyone else notice the quote signs -->> "

  • ....Im sad. I cried.

  • i have no idea if this is fully true and i read it on some random website but it said his brother commited suicide because he didnt get attention and that alex got it all because he was famous and alex takes all the blame for it and also it said he hung himself in his basement with a noose and a bottle of alcohol. and this song touched me bc ik how it feel to lose somone to suicide. R.I.P. angelo :*[

  • i almost cried when I found out it was about his brother. The lyrics are so meaningful and everything...:/

  • ahh my name is haley! and at 0:52 hes holding a sign that says I love haley <3

  • this song is so sad i feel sorry for him

  • love the pics!

  • who is the woman he's lying on @ 3:33?

  • @Brunettebabii1993 that's his girlfriend, Lisa.

  • This song is so sad... but every time he sings "scream"

    idk why...but eargasm every time. :)

  • Aw that's so sweet

    I love Alex

    :(

    I love this song tho :)

  • how do you know that it was about his brother's suicide?

  • @hankypanky232 he has revealed that much but it's a very personal matter that we fans shouldn't discuss so openly and casually.

  • @hankypanky232 How do you not know .. ?

  • "Forever never seemed so long as when your not around it's like a piece of me is missing" - I know how alex feels. I didn't loose my brother. It was someone else=/

  • everytime i hear this song i think of*tears* heather,jake,gage,my bf dad , my x bf, and my dearly loved friend kevin ): all from suecide... EVERYTHING he says *throw the bottle break the door and dissapear* is so important ): i know how he feels ):

  • @SK8tERchic19327 all those people you named passed by suicide? or i just completly misunderstood you?

  • i know what he's going through..i mean i didn't loose a family member to suicide but i lost about 4bestfriends in the past 4-5months...so yeah :/ its never easy and i listen to this song and i always end up crying and singing along..

  • losing someone you love is never easy... it's one of the hardest things one will ever face in their life. i lost my best friend to suicide three years ago.

    my heart goes out to the gaskarth family and all families that have been hurt by loss.

    <3

    beautiful song, ATL.

  • oh my spongebob, this is so beutiful..

  • Wow, that was so beautiful, i feel his pain too, especially the part when he says 'it's like a piece of me is missing.' it just made me cry so bad, All time low you are just simply amazing keep it up and alex.. chin up

  • i love this song.

    reminds me of my friend that committed suicide almost a year ago.

    i found out his twin just committed suicide two days ago : (

    imissthem..

  • Dude, this song just hits me in the heart. My cousin that lived with my family, she was like a sister to me, committed suicide. She was only 20 and took her life. This song makes me cry everytime i hear it.

    Love this song.

  • I love this song, one of my favourite All Time Low songs. It makes me cry everytime i listen to it.

  • I sorta know what alex is going through. I mean i didnt loose my brother but when i was 1 my mom died and i am almost 13 now and i still didnt get over it. My dad well i dont really like him he isnt really around and now i really only have my older brother sooo i sorta get what he is dealing with. I am sooooo sorry alex ily

  • I sorta know what alex is going through. I mean i didnt loose my brother but when i was 1 my mom died and i am almost 13 now and i still didnt get over it. My dad well i dont really like him he isnt really around and now i really only have my older brother sooo i sorta get what he is dealing with. I am sooooo sorry alex ily

  • Comment removed

  • i wish i could say i understand but i really dont the closest person to me that died was my grandma

  • No one really knows. But it is said that he did it for attention, if that makes sence, because if you listen to the lyrics it says 'Scream to be heard like you needed anymore attention.' and stuff. But It could be just a rumor
