Rise Against Video For "Audience Of One"

[MrFalschverkabelt]

dieser junge hat risee against getötet :O

[Tmac2100]

check out my video response!..first one to the left in case you cant read my name haha

[ChipperGman]

Sounds good, but not unlike every other "rock" song out today. They have definitely gone pretty mainstream. No harm in that. I would, but I hoped they could walk the line better than this. Its good, expected better.

[bokis194]

The kid has satelite dishes for ears

[FreshSanta]

the surface shines ... while the inside rots

epic :D

[csherman059860]

invasion of iraq needed to happen.. if we didnt attack after 911 it would have showed them that we were push overs and it would have happend again.. end of story

[droagan]

lol we should have attacked ourselves

[droagan]

we should have attacked as a people. wronged bye the government. lied to. and even then we all followed the flock... whats it going to take...

bah bah bah bah

ignorance is bliss

[lefack7]

Y in the fack does everything turn into politics? who cares its a song just listen to it and spread your ideas to ppl who care.

[JJG85]

great video, especially the little boy named george

[ice788]

fuck these advertisements! like half the reason i watch youtube is so i don't have to watch them...fuuuck

[NCthrashers]

IKR!

[kecske18]

awesome song from the greatest band ever:D

[bennyontherun11]

a-maze-ing

[0neL4s7H0n0r]

Does anyone know whether Rise Against, (In their songs) is liberal or conservative?

[EpyKPhail]

Of course they are liberal !!!! Its kind of irony !! They show us the hard hard hard reality and yea.. we we should think about this ... !!!

[gasia16]

aewsome song

[higoshimaru]

rofl dumbos running the country now XD

[keeno12345678]

rise against kick arse hey

[TheFlohihan]

0:06 lame crowd xD

[fantast300]

lol

[echo419arbiter]

I find it helarious how people in the us are so ignorant of how healthcare is run in every other western country. Especially you rebelortrouble.

[strutter191]

@echo419arbiter

usa is igorant about ANYTHING outside usa.

[THISISNOTURS]

@strutter191 even though im an american thats fukin true... all we care about is our own good and how to waste our money on pointless things like war.

[bennyontherun11]

@strutter191 oh god! i couldnt agree with you more

[xxalucard66xx]

@golfinskynyrdfan That's a pretty wrong image there. We don't run it, we're just as in deep as other major nations. If the eastern hemisphere wanted to we could all be nuked along with your idiocy. Least something good would come out of it.

[golfinskynyrdfan]

i was talking about our economy good sir

[JJmakesfunofu]

Heh ya. america has to depend on other countries for food, cars, Ext...

if america disapeared off the map it deffinently would'nt cause the world to go into a panic.

[dcskateteam100]

haha true say. im from canada and like honestly everyones techinacly like a family. so if one nation goes down another will step in to defend

[FreckledOne16]

too bad china and opec run us...

[IllStopWhenYouDo]

Rise against is the best band ever, Love them so much!, Rise against <3333333

[THISISNOTURS]

@IllStopWhenYouDo SAME!!!

[shiela308]

2:56 - 2:57 Loving Tim's shoes nd socks

[TheNinjasRKool]

rise against can rock so hard there is no way to describe how hard they rock! :)

[soulcleric]

if people attacked your country and killed thousands. would u just sit around and wait it for it to happen again.

[AnticipationIsTheNew]

yes

[rebelortrouble]

god will people ever get over bush about this war

maybe thats what your not talking about but seriously

when 911 happened people demanded action so he gave it to them if he hadnt done what he did people would hate him even more

and lets also focus on the price of this rediculous health care plan obama is trying to pass

[XxAnDy1725xX]

@rebelortrouble

You can't just get over someone sending thousands of men with families to war for no apparent reason but to finish what his father did.

When 9'11 happened he HAD to take action. Also, if you knew anything about the government, you would know that the president doesn't have the authority to go to war, he can only propose it.

Would you forgive Obama if he fucked up our economy even worse if you have to suffer the consequences later? Exactly my point.

[EmoGermanShepard]

@XxAnDy1725xX

But also, it was more the way around. The USA milatary invaded Iraq and the took action to get them out of their country, which is why 9-11 hapenned. That's my opinion.

[BBfreak8]

boy's got george bush's ear

[shanukuah2]

dude you dont understand we dont run the goverment alright? we dont even vote..so tht boy is changing not dictating..prick

[LinkinParkFreak9]

[LinkinParkFreak9]

@unseenlock: i think you dont know the meaning of the song^^

[NateHitpas]

[orgnzdkos]

freaking world leaders, this video has it right, treat war like a bunch of kids playing army

[MrKillerDuckful]

would be cool to have a small version of them in your house playing live music :P

[Pure5Productz]

if you describe 'gay' as 'stupid', you're the one that being the gay here.

[VizardProduction]

you are an asshole and for people like you the worrld is bullshit

[SICKxBOYx88]

[themg123able]

[EnterTheDibble]

favorite song ever.

[lljjbj07]

these guys are fucking badass

[TEVIONErazor]

!!!xRockx!!!

[vamplestat117]

the singer looks like dr. house in the vid

[louisbaert]

true, but younger :p

[synysterg]

haaa!!! im not the only one who thinkgs that!!

thank god.

[floydnorton]

this song is awesome

[Fowelbow]

I love Rise against and what they stand for. Hand up for a better world

[israelamador13]

holy crap that kid owned rise against LOL

[gagesoccr20]

Why do people argue over the internet? I don't get it...it's pointless, like trying to beat the hell outta someone with a wet noodle. You just ain't accomplishing  much...-.-

[FuckinDarknessRising]

@gagesoccr20 hahahaaa lol how cool is that!! xD

[RumpelstudlBum]

@freelieful everybody hates ringtones. sorry for that...

[TheNeoAnimus]

When this band starts using their money to make the world a better place I'll consider them good and "Raging against the machine". Until then they are hypocrites who use what they can to make themselves rich. In this regard they aren't so different from the people they "Rage against" such as Bush and Co.

[NK911EA2]

Lol you realize of course that Rise Against and Rage Against the Machine are completely different bands. It may do you some good to look into why they named themselves Rise Against.

[Drehverworter]

@TheNeoAnimus

They are using their money for a better world. they made contracts with the "Vanes" label. Their videos are showing the bad things in the world.

and why do you call them hypocrites?

[MegaZeldaNerd]

u do know that is this is Rise Against and not Rage Against The Machine?

[RocketTacos]

i jus noticed the lead singer looks kinda like house

[kht777]

As in House, M.D, The tv show?

[iSkisb]

This is such a great song

[anthonyr1]

wow, never would have guessed this band would ty and put a political spin on the video for this song. Unlike some of their others, this one doesn't seem politically charged at all, to me anyways.

[MusikRoxifyed]

haha.. it's George bush when he was a kid..

[donotfeedthetroll]

why do all the band members have such terribly receding hairlines?

[Inlistd]

Because they're veterens!

[Lingox5]

ok im not really big on this whole thing where this vid represents our goverment now but its kinda of a coincedence how its a four min song and presidents serve four year terms. lol

[ParanoidChickenKilla]

bad ass song and bad ass video

[MikeUTube9333]

The overall problem is over population. talk government into having a 1 child per 2 adult law, and we can start getting things back on track in a few generations... but i dont think people would go well this that, not many people truely care, well its not that they dont care, its they they would rather pretend the issues are not there.

[BellaCiao17]

@MikeUTube9333

No man I don't think that, when 12% of world's population consumes 86% of total water and when some hundreds of the richiest men in the world own the same goods as 2.500.000.000 of the poorest people in the world, over population is the problem but the unfair application of funds. The gap between rich and poor always gets bigger bigger, especially in case of economic crisis, like we're having now..

[4241600m]

i have an idea: lets tell farmers to stop fucking up the earth. how about instead of paying them to overproduce bumper crops every year, we pay them to rebuild forestation. i live in illinois, and i have a feeling that southern illinois used to be nothing but forest, now it is gone, dead, farm land.

[BellaCiao17]

Finally, in my view talking about pollution of evironment etc. when at the same time we go out and vote capitalism and as a result we vote for over-producting and consumpting more and more, which means mass reduction of natural goods, is a little hypocritical..

[BellaCiao17]

So don't believe in bullshits such as "Obama will stop war in Iraq". The only change with Obama's election is the colour of the president.

[BellaCiao17]

Firstly, you've to understand that government, no matter if it Bush or Obama, doesn't make mistakes. It's not due to their "naivety" that they're making a war or sthg. Their purpose it to make money for them and for multinational companies.. and that's what they're doing. As long as a government supports capitalism we can't avoid wars. Because capitalism wants to make the fund bigger and bigger and a way of increasing it is making war.

[Emostuie987]

i hared this in a halo montage

[beniful14]

The Child Of A Burning Nation Knows Better Than The Said Party.

[prince2142]

1000. comments :D

[prince2142]

bad ass song

[ninjasquirrelsrock]

This song kinda describes two people who have broken up. Ehh but what do i know.

[nero91]

@ninjasquirrelsrock

"I brougt down the sky for you but all you did was shrug" makes that very clear

[Keyman101Freak]

i love it

[PikachusDaddy]

"Maybe we've outgrown all the things that we once loved"

beautiful line in this fantastic song

[nero91]

@PikachusDaddy

makes me feel nostalgic instantly

[Truepurpl3]

My favorite part is 3:25 cause the shot really captures the essence of the lyrics and message of the video plus its a nice shot

[RisenUpAgain]

I love too many of their songs but this could be my favorite, and yeah music videos are confusing somtimes but it's how you interpret the music, not the video.

[tripleJmovies]

This is easily my favorite song.

[Zantar17]

Dont let a music video change your opinion on what the song means to you. Music is ment to be interpreted by the listener.

[aprilcullen]

@Zantar17 I absolutely agree with you ^^

[Krisbcream1]

wow, I thought I new what the song meant until I saw the video. Now I'm clueless.

[Lingox5]

don't really comprehend the vid.

[bruxo]

we're all ok until the day we are not.

[Frankcastle522]

I don't understand how a band can be seen as having so much relevence in politics. Do they really know what they are talking about. IS Bush one hundred percent responsible for America in its poor condition.

[DaMuphyn]

bush isnt 100%. he played a big part.

but obama is making it SO much worse. we're having a losing streak on picking decent presidents.

[Frankcastle522]

Dude you are the first person on youtube I have met that I can say I agree with 100%

[tgh112]

omg i klicked the vid.... 1st had to w8 for a alcahol comercial to end... coem on alachol + rise against?

[pcechick1]

@tgh112 i know right!!! straight edge for a reason!!!!

[tgh112]

@ pcechick i live in holland and a while a go ther was a war movie month on tv ... they used "hero of war" from rise against as comercial sound for that war month.... mm ok?xD

[SteveO199150]

i think i saw a comment on here saying it was busting on bush cuz the kid had big ears.... i think nixon had big ears too.....

[thaburger23]

This song is good the advertisement pisses me off tho, if I want those id watch tv -.-

[k1dguy78]

yeah rise against rules and plus this is a song so don't try to change it in to a war debate

[theboss8226]

this is an amazing video/song.

whoever thought this was racist obviously doesnt understand or even try to appreciate the true meanings of there songs.

besides. Rise Against is the greatest fucken band ever.

noone can argue with that =]

[KEWLSguy97]

true fuckin true i <3 them their awesome

[NEmooseGOALIE34]

rise against does absolutely own, but actually ppl can ;] but i wont just kuz itll b a waste of time

[ThePittstructor]

Who said anything about racism? They supported Obama if thats where the reference came in, but I can't see them being racist

[eaglesx22]

Can someone explain to me why each and every video on Youtube somehow has its comment forums turned into political debates peppered with insults and slurs? I'm just wondering...?

[HCSEJamvaan]

@eaglesx22 because the youtube community is overly opinionated on stuff they don't know jack shit about and when someone calls them on it the only way they can respond is with a racial slur. These people make the Xbox Live Community look culturally tolerant.

[grauster423]

not all videos, i dont think a katy perry video has any kind of meaningful thought or debate on its forum lol

[xXSythenXx]

That is a big.. big model. O.o

[k1dguy78]

this song rocks!!!

ps: fuck off you racist mother fucker go die

[vikingslayer101]

racist bastard

[EYnee]

impressive video

[harryjohnson313]

This and savior are my two favorite songs

ROCK ON!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[Jakeeboy88]

the line at 2:00 means a lot to me i've watched this over and over again for that part it's amazing and it makes me think about my life right now more than anything because of all the people i've do so much for and they walk away like it was nothing...this song and basically all song are open to your own interpritaiton most of the time the music video has nothing to do with the lyrics..so stop argueing everyone and enjoy the music please.

[Jakeeboy88]

soory about all the miss spellings in that.but im pretty sure you get the jist.

[SamN8or13]

i agree

[danakittykat]

this music video is soo true

bush used to play around with USA like that

and i have to mention

tim looks sooooo good in this video!

;)

love him!<3

[tkschmidt]

bush didnt play with anything but himself, he was the republican party's litte toy puppet, he did whatever they wanted him to

[jhtv5757]

you racist fuck get outta here.

you don't even know the true definition of communism so shut up.

[SasukeKills93]

You can't say jack shit until the country is actually destroyed.

On the bright side, our country isn't burning up like Stalins Soviet Russia

[danakittykat]

haha. . thats true

but bush was in control and he messed everything up by bringing down the economy and since money runs the world. .:(. . thatwas bad for all countries

[marvadahlin]

close but not quite. bush wasn't a mess so much as his political party. i.e. letting the big banks line their pockets in exchange for lax oversight. thanx 4 the recession, guyz!! :)

p.s. i think the band would be proud of all the political discussion. it's rise against, doi. props to the younger set on here for giving a damn about the economy, the world, etc.

[danakittykat]

ahahaha

i love how every Rise Against video makes people always argue/ discuss it

but thats thier point to try to get that to happen. The resessiion wasn't really what you thought it was it was so short but it did affect a lot of people!

RISE AGAINST!! . . .<3

[FoldingAtHom3]

@danakittykat:

Ummm... you do realize that we are still in the recession and that it is getting worse right? Just yesterday approximately 500,000 people were put out of jobs due to the red snapper industry being shut down.

P.S. stop with the gay <3 crap

[andyd1ck]

chances are that danakittykat is a girl and that her name is dana(just a guess,hahah) so i don't think a heart would really be gay.

[danakittykat]

haha my name is dana. . lol i am a girl and I think your name is andy

hello nice to meet you!

[danakittykat]

I dont really know whats going o right now as bad as that sounds but you ave to admit that our world runs on money which is really petty. . and stupid. We rely on paper and metal

[mccheddz]

@danakittykat you clearly dont know hwat your talkin about. the recession isnt over and it isnt going to be. ppl will think its over and then invest all their money and then BAM another recessi0n except this time its permanant. the dollar isnt going to be worth much for much longer. watch

[danakittykat]

I know but soo far money is our greatest problem. . wasting taxes on stupid things is not helping it and we somehow need to pull up from this

[MegaZeldaNerd]

investing money would help the economy that´s the point why the governments invest as much as it´s possible in such crises...it would increase the recession if they would keep as much money they can get, because there is no circulation of money ...and although the dollar isn´t as strong as the rising euro, it still is one of the strongest currencies

[emoRena123]

Can someone explain what's so political about Rise Against? ..... i just really don't see anything political about their lyrics

[emoRena123]

I don't understand the video.... but i love the song! =)

[harshgoat]

how the hell dont you understand it?! its quite obvious to be frank

[lespaulultra712]

i think in the video, the young boy is bush then if you watch the video you will understand

[NEmooseGOALIE34]

oh kuz hes like destroying the model rite? and like the war signs and stuff

[sakicrocks]

@NEmooseGOALIE34 It's the bigger picture. The Wars in Afghanistan in Iraq, the financial crisis, fluctuating oil prices, even down to the ears (Bush has big ears, as does the kid).

[friselpill]

@NEmooseGOALIE34 its also portraying how the leaders of the world are like kids treating war as if it is a game trying to play and have fun when lives, cities, and entire ecosysems are being forever changed...hence the changing landscapes and how the buildings are so carelessly changed

[NEmooseGOALIE34]

ok thanks cause i was still wondering like everything that they were saying about Bush

[emoRena123]

i get it now... its makes sense... thanks!!=) haha

[coldplayandanberlin]

orgasm. :)
