Oh they cut off the bridge part. Still love the song anyway :) It's nice to hear an acoustic version of a song once in a while.
Btw, I know that Relient K fans are awesome so I was wondering if you could click on my channel and just listen to the first few seconds of the song that plays? :) Just check it out. I wrote it. Would really mean a lot to me.
listening to them all singing, I started thinking how cool it would be if they came out with an a capella song, then realizad they already have one haha relient k has it all!
This is such a pleasure,especially after knowing and listening to the original electric version for so long! this video sparked a lengthy Relient K acoustic search =)
All of these people are such talented artists. I saw them live and they were missing one of the members so they all had to switch around all show :P it was crazy to see how good they were on no matter what instrument they played. And they were amazing live
Dave man.. he should've never left the band. I like the way he plays over Ethan... But Ethan is good also. Its just rk w/out dave cnt do this song anymor.. :-/ lol
i love both versions of the song so much so many different reasons to love them and relient k i also love matt's hair in this vid. lol if i curled and pinned up my hair it would look exactly like his because my hair is like the same color and everything. :-)
Idk why this was thumbed down. You're right, petterhny. Dave was working on a side project with his wife and he decided it was best to leave Relient K. Ethan's a good filler, but you just CAN'T replace an amazing drummer like Dave Douglas.
Dave was/is pretty great. I have never heard anything from his new side project though. Ethan is a little bit more rough than dave. Dave was perfect for RK tho.
I don't care what ANYONE says, that [Matt] is Elijah Woods long lost brother/cousin. DNA does not lie! Look at that face! Look at the beady intense eyes! Look at the mouth, the laugh lines, shape of his lips, esp. the bottom lip, am I looking too hard? Possibly! And of course...the gap in the front teeth! (Whoo!) Its crazy how people cannot hide from what DNA reveals! Okay. I'm done.
I have heard theyre little harmony mix at the begining a million times. I have heard it live and recorded. I cant help but think that it would sound much better if Thiessen didnt do it. His voice doenst mix well if you ask me.
@christianrockr08 Switchfoot is so much more meaningful than writing about a pink tux they write songs that actually have usefulness in life. Relient K is good but saying they are better than Switchfoot and Jon Foreman is blasphemy
@Waitin4theSuntoShine i did say that i wasn't comparing bands, i was comparing creativity of the respective singers in lyric writing. but if you listen to this song, it DOES have usefulness in life. in fact, Mmhmm is probably the single album that i find i relate to the most in life out of any that i've ever heard.
@christianrockr08 Relient k and Switchfoot are 2 very different bands. They are both great but in their own way. And I don't remember music being a competition trying to beat out another band in different ways. Music is about creating songs about something you believe in, not to beat out another band, but to get a point across, no matter how many people hear it. I love both Switchfoot and Relient k because they are different. They both believe in something and they want to get it out.
@JoshGabs for the *third* time, i'm not comparing bands. i *don't* compare bands EVER. i DO, however, appreciate one band's lyrics over another's. that's not competition, that's just simple preference.
@christianrockr08 how about "Hallelujah, I'm a wretched man, Hallelujah, every breath is a second chance" - from Always (Hello Hurricane, 2009)? or were you just talking about funny lines?
this song has so much meaning for me. MMHMM was the first RK album i ever bought (although, shortly after, i began to collect the rest of them including 2 of the EPs) and i fell in love with this song right away. the acoustic version just makes me so emotional! i love it. Relient K is my favorite band in the entire world.
I really really hope they release a cd with all of their acoustic recordings--I have so much respect for these musicians. They were amazing in concert.
RELIENT K IS SOSOOOO AWESOME!! It drives me nuts how amazing they are :) i love them dearly.. and am seeing them AGAIN this halloween! front row baby.
My favorite band of all time mostly because of Matt T and also some because of Hoopes.. Great acoustic, but always cut off the ending they put on the songs'original releases.Don't mind all the time, sometimes I think, like this, the ending is the best part. When I first got MMHMM I had chills when he sang the "God all this time, I needed you, I needed you" part... anyway, massive kudos to them, I hope to one day play a show with them or part of the band if they need of a guitar player again.
Yayness, actually he's a lot better live. :D He switches from keyboard to guitar, its pretty awesome. I know their lineuo changed, but I still think they're damn awesome. :D
i agree that they wouldnt be the same without Dave but i wouldnt exactly know how hard it would be to sing and play the drums but i play the piano so that i know but that does sounds... difficult
