[Wretchedwithin]

I really liked the way you did this video :}

[oRelyTo]

Or well.. not liking because its in their own opinion. Great dude. :D Had to share it on Facebook.

And thanks.

[oRelyTo]

I even liked the font that everyone is hating on. >;o

[oRelyTo]

That was great dude/dudette. :D Everything about it was the bomb.

[Domarin]

She, will always be on my mind. If you ever read this, know you will always be my angel, I love you.

[knifeforkandaspoon]

Ahh, Papyrus, we meet again.

[gforcestrike]

This is the best songe ever..... hands down :)

[homoisi]

yeah not feeling the font, also the introduction music, kills it..

[kjeezy101]

Lame font. And he sounds nasaly in the acoustic version

[lizarcade]

this would've been okay if you didn't use papyrus....

[SqueegeeBee]

Taylor Swift like this song.

"We are SCREAMING the lyrics to Dashboard Confessional songs in the van. A capella. "AND YOU KISSED! ME! LIKE! YOU! MEANT ITTTT" Good times." - by her Twitter channel.

:D

[BlackStreetCasillas]

@SqueegeeBee

This dude really knows how to make catchy lyrics, "you meant it" is not his only one, there are many other good phrases in their other songs too

[Seabearful]

[Uxhenik]

[xGuitaRxxHer0x]

@Uxhenik There are but not in this version

[hyatogokudera]

@xGuitaRxxHer0x its because this the acoustic version...

[xGuitaRxxHer0x]

@hyatogokudera I know man, I was answering someone's question about why there are no drums

[HawxTeamDelta]

[Mathias9214]

why? why? does it have to be so much hate in youtube comments? it's nothing wrong telling your opinion, just remember you don't HAVE to offend people just because you have another meaning. I for myself LOVE this song but say I don't I would't bother to comment, but say I do I would just told my opinion" It's not my taste". Why does people have to harrase all the time?

It's not often I comment on an animation but i thought this one was done VERY well. What a GREAT track. Who says peer to peer downloading is bad ? I came across this track in someone elses collection by accident, have been a fan of these lot since and BOUGHT albums because of it.

[sivervipa]

92% of teenagers have turned to Hip Hop and Pop.If you are part of the 8% that still listen to real music,copy and paste this message to another 5 videos.

DON'T LET THE SPIRIT OF ROCK DIE!

[CorysVidz]

@XxSEXXYxX303

Shut the fuck up. People will listen to what they want to listen too.

[XxSEXXYxX303]

@CorysVidz hey dumb shit... i didnt say to listen to rock... i just said that if you listen to rock then post that on songs... i didnt even come up with that anyways.. so dont get a fuckin attatude with me!!

[skyskyyy8822]

can someone tell me what movie this song is from? the beginning sounds extremely familiar...

[LaK9896]

@skyskyyy8822

It's from One Tree Hill

[ScaringSophie]

@skyskyyy8822 it's on the first episode of one tree hill when peyton almost runs lucas over :)

[MrKnuddler]

you make this so beautiful :)

you make my day !

[mongoosecity]

im going to learn this on guitar... :D

[offrdsailthesky]

I love how every single video on youtube, any online article, or anywhere else to which you can post a comment, no matter how seemingly uncontroversial the topic is, has people fighting. I don't even know what to say really; it's ridiculous.

[xanatos22]

As a second and final point. Everyone should remember that swearing indicates a lack of intelligence. I'm sorry you're ignorant and can't locate in your cerebrum another word in substitution of profanity. Those who swear will retain and achieve far less in their lives. I would think a man who is supposedly as well traveled as you would understand that.

[xanatos22]

As a priori point, drgnslaya, before you boast excellent grammar and insult others for it. You may want to check your own, "Go and gain some intelligence or just die." I believe the word you were searching for was intellect however, I'll concede that point. Simply pointing out your other previous grammatical imperfections such as placing a period previously on the outside of the quotation marks? Excellent, I'm sure your English teacher is proud.

[FagSlayer69]

Fuck Papyrus.

[fingerolez]

 kinda love diz !

[rotterkai]

i never heard this band before lol but this song is fucking awesome



[Dalb0p]

@rotterkai I prefer the non acoustic version of this song :) i think he sings it slightly better, there awesome though :)

[clanhollywoodhal0]

@rotterkai how the fuck can't you know dashboard confessional?

oh my god :O

[bronwyn1982]

♥ this song! :)

[R2D2loveseva]

GREAT SONG! love the lyrics from this one.thnks for posting it!

[appleofsomeoneseye]

omfg das is soo unbeschreiblich GUT!

♥

[drgnslaya4]

stupid fucking depressing emo fags. why don't you all just die?

[mynameiscarll]

@drgnslaya4 fuck you dicks, dont be a retard & stop being a fag. grow the fuck up & just die

[mynameiscarll]

@drgnslaya4 fuck you faggot, stop being a retard & grow th fuck up bitch. just die srsly

[drgnslaya4]

@mynameiscarll lolololololo0l, look how pissed off this little pathetic emo fag is. I think it would be a benefit to the human race if all you emo fags would die. Remember, cut up the stairs, not across the corridor. (Y) If you follow these instructions you'll be on your way to hell in no time. Happy trails ;D

[heywannafallinlove]

@drgnslaya4 of course you'd say that. because you have a "perfect life", right? you think you're better than everyone else, far from it actually. we breathe the same air. "emos" breathe the same air as you. so get a freaking life. and when you say emo, do you mean people who cut themselves. that is a mistaken stereotype. emo people sometimes express themselves by cutting. & whoa, i'm glad i don't know you. cause i'd rather eat my throw up than see your face. this is an amazing song, enjoy it!

[drgnslaya4]

@heywannafallinlove Right, first of all, my life isn't perfect, nobody has a perfect life. I don't think I'm better than anyone else, just emos because I can deal with life unlike them. What's the point in cutting yourself to express your "pain" and "suffering"? It's not going to get you anywhere. Get off your ass, stop feeling sorry for yourself and fucking do something about it if you have a problem you fucking pussy. "cause i'd rather eat my throw up..."? You illiterate retard!

[Skyhigh11995]

@drgnslaya4 Dude, no offense because I don't know you, but shut the fuck up! Not all emos are stupid and cut themselves. It's a stupid stereotype. You aren't any better than them because you are just insulting them, if you don't like them, then guess what? DON'T TALK ABOUT THEM, IGNORE THEM! Yes, he was a little illiterate, but that's ok. It's his words! Go do something better than insulting the extensive emo population!

[Addicted2blueeyes]

@drgnslaya4 Uh just wanna express people express things in there own way. Almost or maybe all addictions are brought on by the mind wanting to escape. The mind controls everything and can also trick you. So people that cut or addicted there mind might make it seem like it helps and is better. To much emotionally pain forces your brain to find it's own escape.

[Rockingstar01]

@drgnslaya4 normally i wouldn't get involved but what you said was stupid.Everyone at one point in their lives needs an escape and individuality is far from cutting you self or attempted suicide it's liking something different. Making it clear that you have principles and your own sense of life. Cus over all it doesn't matter your situation as long as you can be released from it's all that matters. ANd the song isn't about wanting to die. It's about how wonderful love is.

[aBlackRainbowLover6]

@Rockingstar01

i completly agree with you. When people say 'emo' they always think cutting yourself or watever but its about choosing to like something different then songs where people only talk about doing it and shoot fireworks out their boobs. At least stuff like this actually has a something meaningful to it.

And I really do like the way you've done the lyrics with the sizes and positions and stuff of the lyrics. GOOD JOB!

[drgnslaya4]

@heywannafallinlove Come back when you have a decent argument.

P.S. How haven't you reached the conclusion that I'm a fucking troll? I know why, because you're a stupid emo fag wannabe who thinks it's "cool" to be an "individual".

Well the way you're going about it, no. You get so pissed off when people mock emos because you look up to the unwritten rules of emo so much. BTW this song sucks and takes no talent.

[Kasagde]

@drgnslaya4 Just because a song doesn't take no talent, it doesn't mean it's a bad song. I'm far from emo, I'm just a decent guy with everyday problems, but I really like this song. Nice lyrics and good story.

You'll get it when you get a girlfriend one day, you really fall in love with.

[NICKHOWELLS138]

@Kasagde your right the lyrics do have an awsome meaning lets be cool hear ill help you you gotta be more strict with steriotypes like this guy just say fuck you drgnslaya4 this song is awsome

[escaflowne3]

@Kasagde

writing good music does take talent. and this is good music.

[PurpleDolphiN42]

@Kasagde

I'm sick and tired of people labeling everyone and everything. There is NOTHING wrong about being emo or any other stupid created word to describe someone. Stop judging and criticizing everyone you see. I say this to all of you possibly reading this right now. Chances are you have done the same to someone. Grow up and understand that everyone is special in their own way. Stop being so ignorant people...

[Skyhigh11995]

@PurpleDolphiN42 Why does this comment not have 80 thumbs up?

[AliceInDisturbia]

@drgnslaya4

If It Take's No talent

Post A video Of you Singing as good As He Does And Playing Guitar ye?

[heywannafallinlove]

@drgnslaya4 haha. a decent argument? get real. just because people are emo you want them to die. you're so reasonable. seems like you're the one who wants to be like everyone else because you put the word individual in quotations. this song is in fact, great. if you don't like it go elsewhere and listen to "good" music.

[drgnslaya4]

@heywannafallinlove I don't want emos to die just because they're emos, but because of the stupid reasons they became emo in the first place, like I just described in my previous comments. All you need to hear to understand my point is "What's the point of complaining about life, if you hate your life so much then what's the point of living it? But you really should take into consideration of the millions of people who are FAR worse off than any of you faggots." Ever been to the slums of India?

[drgnslaya4]

@heywannafallinlove Or maybe the starving villages in the most barren parts of Africa? Well I have. You have no idea what you have compared to them. All you people are so ignorant, close minded, arrogant and uneducated. Go and gain some intelligence or just die. The world would be far better off without any of you.

[JackPhelpswho]

@drgnslaya4 your emo dude, listen to you

[horheydee]

@drgnslaya4 Lol, your a fucking retard.

This song is about being in love, having the best day ever.

Please explain to me how this is DEPRESSING?

Yea, thats right, you are a fucking idiot.

Maybe when you stop being an idiot and a lazy fat slob, you will go out and get a girlfriend that you MIGHT have memories with, and maybe it'll inspire you to right REAL music like this.

[hellohigoodbye2u]

I.F*CkeN. Heart. This. Song.

Omg this makes me cheesy

[Flipzt3r4lyf]

beautiful

[KaJeTheRiPPer]

i loVe daSHboaRD!!hhuhuhu

[cambriaXDish]

Somehow they remind me of Second hand Serenade. But in a good way. :]

[HollylovesTrent]

dashboard confessional has this way of making us girls wish that we had a cute guy singing their songs to us. lol i <3 dashboard confessional. their like the sweetest band ever ^.^

[cambriaXDish]

@HollylovesTrent Oh my God, i know. This was so addicting for so long. I would listen to it 24/freaking 7. :D You totally put my thoughts into words(:

[loVapaLooza911]

i like this version of the song better

[pauzeadelic]

panty dropper

[dagreenshadezz]

Fucken love this song!

[TheRainbowPony]

I dont know why the lyrics randomly popping up out of nowhere made me laugh. :D

[nefarious913]

in my opinion this isnt even really music for emo people...its more a song for when you realize you have found that one person in you life who is truly the one for you and you know that nothing would be right anymore without them.

[jessicadianem]

wow, you made this video really good.

perfect!

[kcloonan1988]

i love this band one of their best songs

[portalnuk]

This song reminds me of someone special..

[CrAzZyK1dd]

Good song. Totally not my type of music, but its a really good song.

[TheFathersAdvocate]

@CrAzZyK1dd I will totally agree with that. Great to play and sing.

[iamtommetcalfe]

This is one of my favourite songs

[kmkfan14]

did this take forever you did a really good job nice song five stars

[TheMusicalAmbition]

must've taken you a while to do this hahaha

[sexylexihexi]

Shoulda made it more Hardcoree.

[hehelalaland1]

how are they emo?!?...

they are underneath the list of emo wikipedia artists...

[XXXbrutalbrennaxX666]

i really dont understand why ppl always have to hate on certain music i bet they cant sing or anything they probably aren't even creative enough to come up with their own music that sounds unique at all honestly why cant u like both kinds of music? i do! real music comes from the soul not a particular genre or band

[livesformusic123]

@XXXbrutalbrennaxX666 finally someone that gets it<3 thankkkk you :D

[XXXbrutalbrennaxX666]

@livesformusic123 im glad you get it too :D i really thought i could be the only one YOU'RE AWESOME ;D <33

[livesformusic123]

@XXXbrutalbrennaxX666 hahaha we're just beastly like that<333 (: haha finally someone thats not ignorant and doesn't have to be a bitch about music <3

[XXXbrutalbrennaxX666]

@livesformusic123 same to you! i cant stand all those people that bash music all the time and only listen to one type of music and hate anyone who doesnt like the same music genre as them! i mean music is the best thing in the world dont ruin it with petty arguments over opinions just enjoy it :)

[livesformusic123]

@XXXbrutalbrennaxX666 i know really! and like i love screamo<3 and at the same time i love nevershoutnever and dashboard confessional and say anything and at the same time i love metal. being a music lover is accepting all kinds of music not bashing music and calling it gay because you don't like it[: and exactly hahah you're beastly :D for thinking what yew just said hehe ^_^

[XXXbrutalbrennaxX666]

@livesformusic123 haha you're beastly for agreeing with me! :D I dont know many people that agree with me, actually. XD

[livesformusic123]

@XXXbrutalbrennaxX666 haha well we must be coolll like that xD i mean really music is about bringing people together not being a bitch and arguing about what people have to say

[XXXbrutalbrennaxX666]

@livesformusic123 i believe the world spends too much time focusing on genre then actually listenig to music

[OmgAlexteece]

@XXXbrutalbrennaxX666 can i be beastly with you guys? cause i feel you both and agree COMPLETELY!!

[XXXbrutalbrennaxX666]

@OmgAlexteece ALL ARE WELCOME :D
