Live Forever

[EastCoastOverdose416]

What video filter are you using for the orange colors?

[wangruo115]

hey man where did you get the vinyl, i want one as well

[xclairityx]

@wangruo115 I'm pretty sure when you sing on the song, they just toss you one.

[wangruo115]

@xclairityx i thought this was a fan-made video, sorry man

[xclairityx]

@wangruo115 It's cool man, I was just being a dick. haha

[Kwintasaur]

lololol the duration is 4:20

[HERTZNo1]

@Kwintasaur but it's has better quality than any digital recorders have these days..

[lesCorpsCelestes]

*BOOOOOOOOOOM*

here that dallas?

that's the sound of my mind being blow.

[STEVO1849]

Those are dallas hands at the start :)

[leaffandigger]

Ive met both of them in bars, by far two of the nicest most ckassy people Ive ever met.

Buy Dallas a beer, he'll buy you two more

Ask Shad a question, he'll ask you two more

[chiefhalfoat]

Just got my vinyl copy of this EP in the mail today. Shad can do no wrong in my eyes. I like Dallas too.

[axxcar]

lyrics??

[KapiteinGertJan]

How did you create the random color flashes?

[CatsGoMoo100]

@KapiteinGertJan You can do it in after effects by just making randomly coloured shape layers and adding a glow and dropping the opacity and stuff, you can mask parts out to make different shapes too or something. thats how i'd do it. you can probably do it in other programs too

[KapiteinGertJan]

@CatsGoMoo100 Haha, that's how I do it all the time, but there has to be an easier way. Thanks for your reaction :).

[Asinc308]

BALLER!!!!! 

[TheloverofTKD]

This isn't about jump starting Shad, or ditching a career or anything like that. They did a collab because they thought it'd be dope, and it turned out being so. Stop over analyzing and enjoy the music. And if you're gonna bash it stop wasting your own time and fuck off.

[westhamsandwich]

Shad is one of the best indie rappers around, and Dallas is amazing in all of his endeavors. This collab is spectacular and we need a whole lot more of it.

[pr0nzkthx]

Shad's one of the best things rap has going for it. Love both these artists. True Canadian talent. For those of you saying you're "not into rap", that's cool, but at least acknowledge this as poetry. Shad's not rapping about bitches and hoes. Listen closer.

[Desmondrocks123]

WILL THIS BE ON ITUNES TOMORROW???????

[LilyPhilavanh]

@Desmondrocks123 yes

[colfax2108]

best collab ever... ever. better than any cross genre collab better than any same genre collab... this song is absolutely incredible.

[Mellilope]

oh holy fuck. this is so good.

I never thought this could be possible. this just made my entire week. or month.

[DineAloneRecordsFan]

Loved Dallas Green's Collaborations There Always Amazing.

[UHEARTDOMO]

This is music

[nokaed]

hmm.....shad, my favorite rapper + dallas green, my favorite solo artist = possibly the best duo of all time.

[selfpunk]

this is amazing

[DantesInferno09]

I love that the phone rang.

[xboxfosho]

4:20 :D :D :D

[Wrighttttttt]

@xboxfosho 420 likes as well ♥

[travestyrecords]

LIGHTNING!

[flatlander6]

When and how can I get a copy of this?

[Devise91]

@flatlander6 They started taking orders for this split LP that is coming out in January or February. Check the City and Colour website.

[JasonHatesPeople]

amazing. i love both artists. they create music that has so much depth and meaning, and they collab? what a wonderful day! haha.

[JazzMaverickx]

looooove this!

[hannikohlex]

OMG, Mr green!! nice change! jizz in my fucking ass!

[DGKAreHere]

Someone know how to do the effects with lights like this ? or just know how this is called so I can watch some tutorials to learn it

[DrimbaDrimba]

@DGKAreHere random effects with the editing program. depends one which program you have though for different effects.

[kaatyorly]

i love dallas and shad. BONER!!!

[Wrighttttttt]

4:20

[rottenoctopus]

@Wrighttttttt right on

[rollforever878]

Hate to say this, but 10 people really are deaf and/or dumb

[iairboy72]

Way better than Aubrey Graham.

[ricerice566]

Shad, so nice.

Why don't we have an all Canadian-rapper collab yet?

k-os, Shad, Saukrates, Offishall, Drake, K'Naan, Classified, and whoever the hell wants to hop on would be amazing.

[theforkisonthetable]

Dallas Green does these kinds of compiles all the time.

look at DL Incognito, nominated for 3 junos, never won any because hes an artist and not a business man

[boomer15555]

Love Shad's verses but personally Dallas' chorus singing parts turn me off. This will definately expose Shad to the masses though. Good or bad, you decide.

[BoyzDoingSexyThings]

@boomer15555 are you high?

[boomer15555]

@BoyzDoingSexyThings yea i am high. doesn't take away from my opinion though. :P

i dunno, i dig alexisonfire, but personally hearing his voice in a rap turns me away.

[smon93]

I'd like to hear an Alexis cover.

[NiMelcher14]

Gives me goosebumps.

[HighSchoolD]

Shad > Your favorite rapper.

[hitch4645]

@HighSchoolD

how can shad be better than himself?

[happygrlcamper]

This song will win a CANADIAN JUNO... for sure.

[fighted09]

Anyone know where I can find the lyrics for this?

[awww86]

Sounds werid, veeeeeery weird. Dallas can do much more than just a Linkin Park acoustic prototype.

[dsrger]

Could someone write the lyrics?? please



[dsrger]

Could someone write the lyrics?? please

[flatb3d]

"I heard Drake gave this the thumbs down 9 times" lol

[hburyniuk]

at 0:13 : "now what do i do?" LOL Love Dally.

[D0NNYB0NNY]

This is amazing. Shad + Dallas = YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[cassafrass143]

Who's going to repeat this business like me all night?

[dracktwins]

i love when the phone starts to ring it cracks me up

other then that i love it

[Pouchain7]

Dallas' FB page brought me here and I guess I'm not the only one.

Lovin' the contrast between the 2 voices.

WTF with the phone =)

[seanakalego]

I got so excited when I saw his hand.

[shotz2thadoubleglock]

Dallas spins with Numarks? Yuck.

[joelbedlam]

@shotz2thadoubleglock its our office table. Come on give us a break hahahaha

[ZannieZanana]

Seeing Dallas live is an experience. You all should do it. Talent beyond words! His voice just draws you in no matter if your a fan or not you have to admit he's talented. This song is a breath of fresh air. Can't wait to be able to get it on itunes or something.

Shad and Dallas = Canadian Love!

[Kochmilk]

4:20

[RemixtillUdieWilliam]

Does someone know where i can find a clear version of this song?

[DannyBoyRamirez]

i am really going to marry this song, i cant stop listening to it

[flipmcflop2]

I love Dallas's voice in this, it's so great that he does a bit of every music. I like some Shad's lyrics, but some just sound to predictable and a bit cheesy, in my opinion.

[schroederboy7]

downloadable?

[XxSelethusxX]

This completely boggled my mind. Me, for one, have always disliked rap. 80% for the reason that the mainstream stuff has no musical talent what so ever. Those aren't musicians. This, is an example of two professional musicians. Dallas especially. To pull something like this, and get away with it, and draw in even people like me. Like, really most people here. This doesn't ruin Dallas. This simply describes just how perfect of a musician he is. Kudos, Dallas Green and Shad. Amazing song.

[FlippScott]

no. fucking. way.

[kaatyorly]

this is really amazing

[EKohnen13]

so is this going to be on Dallas' new album, or is it an EP on its own?

[manery33]

@EKohnen13 I believe that Dallas and Shad have mentioned that they are just releasing it as a special addition on vinyl. But who knows if it gets a strong enough response!

[wiouxev]

Cool track. excited for it to be released

[benredsox20]

thumbs up if you found this song from facebook

[Mking511]

I don't want to wait till Jan. 11 to be able to hear the other one, excellent work

[adamrose4]

Sosososososososososososososo good.

[LewwwyD]

can wait for the single in january :D

[AGONIAmusic]

wow....awesome

[goldbecomingsilver]

oh my god, i just love this song - shad & dallas you guys did a great job!

[sherileejade]

he posted this on his twitter and his facebook ...therefore THIS IS Dallas Green ...as if the tattoo's and voice weren't a giveaway :)

[mattycon24]

Actually its going to be a 2 song A and B side record/digital download. And go easy everyone, obviously Dallas is talented enough to break away from his traditional style of music to help another fellow artist out. He did his thing and and in some opinions including my own, he laid it down well. This doesn't mean it brings his persona down. He's an artist, and a damn good one at that. He's an individual spreading out and trying something new. Thats what artists do, they keep you on your toes.

[Scolheap]

dallas should use this singing style more often, hopefully on the the new c&c record.

[FallinJestyr]

@Scolheap ummm alexisonfire! duh!!!

[Scolheap]

@FallinJestyr he doesnt sing like this with Alexis, this is a happy medium between c&c and aof, and I like it

[threnoidia]

aww i wish i could like this song :( the lyrics are really good, but i cant seem to get into the beat. * trys rewiring brain and ears *

[BeckieeC]

Love Dallas, Love Shad

This is amazing

[gunnarisme]

This song is 4:20 long. Smoke weed.

[maxfield20]

I love how people can be so objective with their opinions. At the end of the day, Dallas is a great musician (my opinion of course) and i personally like this colab.

BUT

I find it hard to believe that because it has rap in it that those who dislike it for that reason alone, truely dislike it, but are actually trying to live up to a pre-made stereotype, of some anti rap scene kid.

But if someone doesn't like it they don't like it. They are equally entitled to their opinion. Just chill.

[xlime09]

who the f bomb is rapping

[xM1k3yGx]

@xlime09 London Ontario's Shad (y)

[theBuddyz]

decent

[travyes1]

I could marry this track and live happily ever after.

[heartb34tx]

What is so god-awful about Dallas Green choosing to make other artists sound better by collaborating with them on their tracks? Seriously guys. You act as though he's dropping his own career or somehow losing talent by doing collab work. He's NOT. He's helping jumpstart or fueling other stars' success as well as his own. As long as he keeps making beautiful music of his own, let the man share his pipes on other people's stuff too, if he so pleases. Sweet track.

[theking1175]

@heartb34tx yeah sweet track.. but real talk, Dallas Green is a douche bag.

[w00tpantera]

@theking1175

what grounds do you have to say that ?

[happygrlcamper]

@heartb34tx I agree, but Dallas isn't really jumpstarting Shad's career. Shad is already quite well known. At least in Ontario... for now!

[Asinc308]

@happygrlcamper Shad is the Shit!

[calmackie]

OHH MY GOD! DALLAS AND HIP-HOP!!?!?!?!? MY LIFE IS COMPLETE!

[imtiko]

i started listen to Shad not to long ago, and now he's doing a song with my favourite artist! Brillant

[LIFEBOAT519]

Two of the most talented musicians in Canada.

[bombdigititeh]

People who say mumbo jumbo rap crap know nothing about dallas considering he has done work with dl incognito way before this. Calling Shad boring shows that you don't actually listen to the music and what's being said. Shad and Dallas are two of the top Canadian artists of the past 5 years, it's a phenomenal collaboration. Both from Ontario too. Will be rockin it for a while.

[Kingsofkoc]

This is very disappointing. That Dallas enters into this mumbo-jumbo-rap-crap music is sad and frustrating - not cool at all and totally not his style. The rapper made this song boring and simply kills Dallas' talent. I'm not very much looking forward to an album with a rapper collaborating to it. Run away Dallas!

[mydyingnorma]

@Kingsofkoc I don't listen to much rap either, but Shad is a genius and an awesome musician so give him a chance. If only other rap could be this good...

[kanyeezy24]

@Kingsofkoc. your soo narrow minded it's crazy...

[danflo0425]

@Kingsofkoc .... fuck you

[BeckieeC]

@Kingsofkoc You're actually an idiot..

[LotusMilano]

@Kingsofkoc First of all.. this song is going to be released as a single, it won't be on Dallas's new record. Second of all, don't be so ignorant. Listen to Shad before you talk trash. (Speaking as a person that doesn't typically listen to hip hop) Shad is easily one of the most eloquent, well spoken lyricists I've ever heard. Listen to "A Story No One Told" by Shad <-- if you can't appreciate this song, you're either deaf or don't have a pulse.

[manery33]

@Kingsofkoc This is completely Dallas' style actually. He's able to cross genres easily because he accepts good music for what it is; music. Shad and Dallas are both chill thoughtful guys so their styles mesh completely well. Alexisonfire is a completely different sound than Dallas' solo stuff so does that kill his talent too? Ridiculous..

[cmorand12]

@Kingsofkoc Dude, you obviously didn't listen to the lyrics. Shad K totally backs up Dallas' chorus. This is an amazing collab between two Canadian artists who know how to make music.

[unclecolinisthebest]

@Kingsofkoc You're fucking ignorant. You don't deserve to listen to Dallas or Shad. Go fuck yourself.

[Darkryers]

Dallas that was amazing, dammmn

[mrsgarfield2010]

I like this. Dallas sounds good, and the music is nice. Personally, I think it would sound much better without the rapper. Dallas is one of the most amazing singers I have ever heard. He doesn't need to collaborate with anyone, because he sounds so amazing on his own:)

[SomberFuneral]

haha was not expecting this. keep up the good music dallas

[hopeadam]

It's got the noises and that so it can't be pirated you twonks. Great song.

[MCKinnon023]

When can we get an mp3 of this sound without talking and the phone ringing?

[hoopa123]

GENIUS! D:

[metaphoricalbamf]

Beautiful Dallas, as always. Shad, I'm a new fan, but I'll be yours forever ;]

absolutely love it. <3<3

[V9Films]

I never knew rap and solo could sound so fucking jaw dropping amazing. SHAD AND DALLAS FTW

[capnjasbo]

I'm getting into the fluid, chill vibe of the song and then the fucking phone rings obnoxiously. Lame. Also, if you edited all those cool effects in why didn't you mute your friend asking how to play the record OR rerecord the song without the phone?

Don't mean to be a whiny bitch about it - thanks for uploading it!

[Drevey3]

Hmmmm I love the music and I love Dallas's voice... but I'm not quite feeling the rap collaboration.

[pherse]

@Drevey3

ur dumb

[surferguy56]

Nope.... 

[tazFRAGS]

piff <3

[flaax]

Dallas Green is one of the best music artists out time..

I never experienced such an amazing voice .. im speachless

[JasmineJade84]

fucking beautiful

[HiyoruMikiyazoya]

dallas' hands omg

[nevadorecords]

I like the lightning bolts.

[Pap3rBoy]

Mind Blowing.

Dallas, you never cease to amaze me.

[gabaribo]

lol @ the phone ringing. sweet track though.  thanks for postin it!

[LahLahLand011]

i just died a little

dallas green, i love you.

musical genius

[OmgIdBangYou]

Uhh Dallas Green destroying the music industry. Everything he touches turns to gold.

[ohhighwaylines]

100th like.... no dislikes yet.... Love this song.

[Claudhopper13]

ABSOLUTE PERFECTION

[ScottAcoustic]

SO GOOD!

[AlexNeedle1]

Pause, Dallas the man he switchs it up, he brings new things to the table this is not like some BS rap about F ing hoes and spending money in the club that gay ass rap this is real. Can't wait for the new album i herd cone out in April and a tour

[yowzahinmatrowzas]

Sick song. Also, length of video? 420 :-D

[Usnato4evr]

damn phone

[JOHNFUCKlNGLENNON]

Paused at 0:35. Will exit now.

I hate rap.

[NatKingK00]

@JOHNFUCKlNGLENNON how very closed-minded of you. well done sir

[JOHNFUCKlNGLENNON]

@NatKingK00 Don't be judgin' bro!!1

Also, I'm a girl.

[yzerman1919]

@JOHNFUCKlNGLENNON Either way, Shad is one of the best rappers going in Canada right now. He is such an intelligent dude and has an amazing style.. you're missing out if you don't give him a chance. This is an amazing tune

[wirelesscps]

@yzerman1919 wait until Classified drops his new album but yes shad is sick

[yzerman1919]

@wirelesscps Yea, as much as i love shad Classified is by far my favorite rapper. i'm in his "Oh Canada" video and me and my bro smoked a joint with him in downtown halifax after a concert in the summer

[SeoulSon51]

@JOHNFUCKlNGLENNON You just haven't heard the right rappers then.

[JOHNFUCKlNGLENNON]

@SeoulSon51 It's just a matter of taste. If Dallas would do a collab with a Norwegian metal band, I'd be saying the same thing.

I just don't like it.

[quicksilver050]

Sooo Good!! Long live Dallas and the old prince!!!

[silentjay2]

Never would've expected this but damn is it good.

[bgwendler]

the one dislike. ha. loser.

[jordanpaulsmith]

@mylesbeeby he has the LP because he is singing on the song...

[nowinsession]

If you don't realize this is Dallas Green leaking this track or "picking up the phone" you're retarded. You should be able to tell by his tattoos, let alone the voice when he picks up the phone. Thumb up if you realize this now

[adds102]

@nowinsession I could tell from the hand tattoos at the start

[xlime09]

@nowinsession what game are you playing at

[CooperSnow]

@nowinsession Does he even talk on the phone?

[thatdrummerwhofell]

@nowinsession

as someone who's been to dine alone records and knows a few people who work there, yes. it is dallas playing the track, no it is not dallas picking up the phone its one of their interns hahaha.

[bedouinsoundclash59]

This is beyond amazing. 

[SkatoholicVideo]

do a better video version or make a mp3 version we can buy... that is so good..

[lostmeandering]

b r i l l i a n t!

[colesy]

Quality Dallas & Shad - QUALITY!

[thespursareadynasty]

turn off the PHONEEEEEEE

[TaylorGangOrComment]

Wow makes you think.....amazing...shudda took out the fone thou bud lmfao.

[brennygeegeegee]

[mylesbeeby]

Duuuuude... Cmon... Why do you get to have the LP and Not ME!!!!

Like this sooooooooooo MUCH!!!



[ecskier]
