  • wow if you wanna hear a better acoustic version of this haha search "your so last summer cover" and click on the one by username: werebackintown

  • I'm just concerned with the extent to which a beardless Fred resembles a real life Ron Stoppable...and no I'm not proud to make that reference.

  • I love how hardcore the crowd looks, even though its an acoustic set. hahaaha

  • i love how he sounds good even when hes off key

  • I love this song and Taking Back Sunday (at least their old stuff) and I recognize that these guys are talented musicians but this is definitely off key. I don't care how much you like TBS, don't let your bias cloud your judgement. It doesn't take anything away from them or their music.

  • Off key much ?

  • @lilliza if you're familiar with TBS you know adam really sings that way smh

  • I used to love this video when I was younger... this must be like the most off-key vocal i've ever heard D:

  • he is really off key but I don't care. :)

  • so this song is about him falling in love with a girl that gave him a blowjob...... "these grass stains on my knees won't mean a thing"

  • @Jmoney11193

    Why would the grass stains be on HIS knees?

  • @GregIsLegend you hear at the beginning "She Said" he is speaking from her point of view.

  • Hey crowd, fuck you haha

  • MATT ON THE FREAKIN CHELLO?!?!? EPIC!!!

  • @Crazyhomiesvideos actually its a double bass

  • @Crazyhomiesvideos double bass, and its spelt 'cello'

  • most depressing crowd iv'e ever seen

  • I'm surprised @ how many people dislike this performance.

    I believe it's different but not a bad one.

  • Just shut the fuck up and listen.

  • Adam reminds me of Ashton Kutcher.

  • @SuperSkrillmau5 You really think so? It's not doctored at all, and it sounds pretty raw. And you can hear the passion that he puts into trying his best to hit every note. And the instruments all sound good, and Fred sounds sounds clean and good.

    I mean, Adam, never sounds perfect. Because they never use any form of effects on their voice or auto-tune, and they never lip sync for acoustic performances.

  • @ThatDereKid Well lately, auto-tune seems to be the only thing he uses. There is a difference between raw and untalented :) I like Taking Back Sunday and think their music is interesting, but they are from skilled.

  • @HEYBizarre Oh yeah, lately they suck. It's been over since Fred left.

    Adam lost his style, and with that went the energy of the band. RIP 2002 - 2007

  • @SuperSkrillmau5 Because it's damn amazing.

  • bunito.,....

    

  • Fred's vocals here are perfect :)

  • @MassEffectRocks im sorry to inform you that fred wasnt in the band at the time

  • @philliesphan008 He's sat right there in the video with a guitar and he's singing backing vocals. Maybe you should think before you type, because now you have made yourself look like an idiot. I didn't know it was possible to be that stupid.

  • @MassEffectRocks first of all dont get your panties in a bunch asswipe. second it just didnt look like fred at first to me. i took a second look and paused at certain parts. im not totally sure who it is

  • @philliesphan008 Well you clearly don't have much knowledge about the lead guitarists that have been in TBS so don't try and correct others when you don't have a fucking clue about it yourself. And it IS Fred, trust me dude

  • @MassEffectRocks john nolan fazzzi fred. I kmow who the guitarists are. so stfu. idk if i came off as an asshole in the first comment but i really wasnt being a dick and to me it seemed like you overreacted. i guess ill have to believe you, since you are the expert

  • @philliesphan008 well you obviously don't know who the guitarists are very well since you can't identify that it is Fred in the video.

  • @MassEffectRocks and if you want to get technical jesse lacey

  • @philliesphan008 Jesse Lacey played bass in Taking Back Sunday

  • @MassEffectRocks touche

  • Jesus, everyone needs to stop complaining about Adam's voice. Their previous album had sold over a million copies at $10 a pop. Do you know how many drugs that buys?

    He does. Let's be glad he could even sit up.

  • It's weird adam has a beard and fred doesn't! haha

  • amazing band, teenage memories, but jesus christ Adam needs to turn his monitors up!!

  • Comment removed

  • Does anyone else think that the backing vocals are the best part about every version of this song?

  • tone deaf, much?

  • DUDE THEIR LEAD SINGER CANT HEAR THEYRE PLAYING IT DOWN A CHORD THAT IS SOOOOOO BADDDDDDD JESSE WOULD HAVE DESTROYED THIS IS SO BAD

  • Acoustic doesn't really suit Adam, but he's still a beast.

  • Spin is their best song...

  • I love TBS, but Adam must have felt so embarrassed after singing so poorly on this.

  • @Nambale Lol, what are you talking about? This is one of the best live versions of the song I've heard. Adam isn't a good singer in general. He's good because he has passion and emotion when he sings. I've seen kids cover his songs better than he can play them live.

  • @XxViolentByDesignxX He's sang this song much better before. This was pretty off. In fact he once said that he can barely stomach listening to his voice back then. But if you listen to him in recent years, he has gotten better in his vocals. I'm going to see them on 20th May, so hopefully he'll sing amazingly!

  • @Nambale This is one of their best live performances I've seen of this song.. Most of the recent ones he can't hit anything.  I don't know what your talking about him being out of key. This was pleasantly suprising, I was starting to believe adam never had a live voice to begin with

  • @Nambale 

  • Song Is Amazing. But I Have To Admit The Singing Was Alittle Off. But Cutee :3

  • this band is great in the studio but their vocalist can not sing.

  • Rubano is god

  • Ouch! My ears are bleeding. Sorry

  • @GUERILLAWERKZ OMMGG HES SO OFF KEY JESUS CHRIST

  • @BucaManTV go watch american idol D:<

  • @solidusjerry lmao yeah i thought it was pretty good

  • "and all i need to know is that i'm something you'll be missing, it's pathetic."

    How does one get through that? Honestly.

  • this is great

  • 400.000 we re not so last summer :D i love pony

  • Where's the ambulance... because that crowds dead. . . . .

  • @ericwhithr2007 it's an acoustic performance dumb shit

  • @JacobyLong Weak.

  • I like how his voice isn't perfect i thinks it makes it badass cuz now a days theres all these bands that sound exactly the same his voice is unique which makes me like them more and it's not just his voice that makes the band good but the lyrics and the rhythm of the song u know what I mean.

  • They changed the key of the song but Adam is not a good enough singer to match the key. He's still stuck on the album version.. Anybody with a bit of musical talent can tell you that Adam Lazzara has never been a good singer. Look at the louder now dvd. All of his vocals are autotuned. John Nolan, please save this band....again.

  • @nownaked69 Really sorry but i think i may have eyesight issues.. does your comment honestly suggest that adam lazzara cant sing? Again, it may be my eyesight... Anyone with musical talent would tell you he is an amazing singer. Then again that is just my personal opinion, but i seriously doubt i share it alone...

  • @tezzadnah how can you argue that? Listen to the chorus, he can't hit the notes. I'm not saying it's a huge deal, but I give respect where respect is due and it's certainly not here. He kills it on the albums(with the help of costly music production) but as for Adam in a live setting - he's never been that great. Music is art and art is something where perfection doesn't exist. I understand that you can love how he sings, but you saying "he is an amazing singer" just isn't true.

  • @nownaked69 dude you can critique him only when youre as accomplished as he is

  • @tbsxbassistx375 He's definitely more accomplished than I. I'm just critiquing as a fellow musician.

  • its not off key dumbasses acoustic changes and they can do what they want with it becuase its their song

  • It is acoustic it is not supposed to be just like the original..He is on purposely making it sound rough and worn so it is cool...I like the pitchyness...It is how he sings..If he always sung exactly like the original it would be annoying and people would complain that he is using a track instead of actually singing.

  • @mcsidney123 You must be tone deaf. It's actually quite terrible.

  • @schoolofspool Alright then bro...Do a cover, let me see you do better then the original singer? In one take too.

  • @mcsidney123 Apparently your reading comprehension is almost as bad your ability to distinguish pitch. I was pointing out the fact that if you think the "pitchyness" (whatever the hell that means) is done "on purposely" (again, this doesn't make sense in English) meant to "sound cool" then you're probably an idiot. I didn't want to personally attack you but your response warrants it.

  • @mcsidney123 I also never claimed to be a talented singer. I play the guitar. And while that doesn't require absolute pitch to play, I've acquired it through 15 years of playing. Even still, he's missing so terribly that anyone that isn't absolutely tone deaf should be able to pick it up.

    I enjoy this song. A lot. But in this instance it was totally butchered. But if you enjoy it, then keep listening. Just don't try to act you know anything about music. Bro.

  • @schoolofspool You attacked me when you said I must be tone deaf...Just because I stated my mind about the video, my bad I will remember to think about how my opinion may get your smelly panties in a bunch. Go enjoy your "perfect music" which has no originality and probably just generic over played horse shit.. ...and troll else where. I have better things to do then to listen to you bitch..Like bang your loose mother. Damn must have been your big head that tore that shit up inside her...

  • @mcsidney123 or maybe it was my fist. -smirks-

  • @mcsidney123 K.

  • Ouch, something's really out of tune =/

  • I find his voice is really off in this video and it hurts my ears... :(

  • i used an incorrect "they're" multiple times. apologies. VV

  • goddaaaamn adam. <3 anyways, i've been an over the top die hard fan of TBS for a loong long time. But I have to say, their band is better plugged in. Not because their bad, just becase their style of music. Still my favorite band, easy.

  • maybe fred should of sung this himself....all you biased taking back sunday fans need a reality check

  • this is just amazing, look at everyone's faces and they're all singing along quietly or something, and their heads lol, check out that guy at 2:03, exactly how epic tbs is

  • One of best bands with the least vocal quality live.

  • How does that stool withstand that fat guys fat ass? Miraculous.

  • ehhh...

  • "you could slit my throat, and with my one las gasping breath i'd apologize for bleeding on your shirt".

    best line in the song.

  • @ShanelleAsaurusRex soooooooooo emmmmooooooooooo!

  • @ShanelleAsaurusRex how bold of you to highlight the most obvious lyric of the song

  • @ShanelleAsaurusRex you couldnt be more right!!!

  • i. love. this.

  • @kmarkie888 an example would be Things that rhyme with orange by i set my friends on fire (not live) ....i had eargasms:)

  • i'm not gay, but adam is so damn fucking perfect

  • whats the singers nameee?? :/

  • @DropDeadSalas If you haven't already found out its Adam Lazzara :)

  • @DropDeadSalas adam lazzara... :) coulda asked me.. :P

  • its very early fred

  • Omg i love this song but not on aucoustic @1:53 it was like ear rape...(not in a good way: / )

  • @laurenmariebee when is ear rape ever good?

  • STFU ALL.... NICE SONG!

  • singing is so off key

  • The singer is just so flat and the drummers cymbals sound like crap, but other than that it really good. No offense.

  • john nolan rejoined the band,, TBS original music is now back,, john nolan appeared in "live in orenzas"<<< fred is now happy with his band terrible things...

    anyway its all about adam

  • @DHONAIR when did john appear in that???

  • @cgjhoops21 early this year,,, i think it was july 2010,,,, it is now confirmed that nolan is back in TBS

  • @DHONAIR

    John and Shawn are definately back in the band...

    but even though they didn't release Live From Orenzas after they reunited, it was recorded back in December with Fazzi and Rubano. No John Nolan.

  • ENOUGH with "this is not the original T.B.S". Basically: the "new" T.B.S. is the O.G. that every1 remembers for there raw emotion at shows. I HAVE 2 see them live b4 I die!...

  • Fred completely kills it here, he sings perfect!

  • @simensays that's not fred...

  • @carolinex3twilight yea...it...is

  • @carolinex3twilight yes it is...

  • @dazaran11693 Yeah you're right, shaun and john finished and toured during their TAYF album.. the original line up of tbs actually was antonio longo on vocals, jesse lacey on bass and vocals, john nolan on guitar and vocals, eddie reyes on guitars, and stephen dejoseph on drums. adam lazarra took over bass after lacey left, and soon replaced by shaun cooper after adam did vocals when longo left.. stephen was replaced by Mark..so basically, eddie reyes is the only original member of TBS...

  • ◄ 52 butthairs!

  • Tbs is a enquired taste of music, :D its great if you listen to it at least twice.

  • see THIS is the original line up, fred and matt are in the band. John nolan and shaun cooper left while they were still recording this album! i have no idea why they have the nerve to say they want the original line up back and bring back the two guys that didnt even finish 1 album with them and kick matt rubano out!!

  • @stpeters53 False, They finished tell all your friends with John and Shaun and toured with them. Technically they aren't back to their original line up because they had two ep's before TAYF with a different singer.

  • @dazaran11693 then why was fred and matt rubano in the video for your so last summer?

  • @stpeters53 because it became a single right after john and shaun left

  • @stpeters53 John Nolan left because Adam Lazarra was sleeping with his sister, and he cheated on her, and it caused tension and problems so John left, and Shaun Cooper went with him to form Straylight Run.

  • Amazing !! 

  • "if im just bad news, you had it right all along!" i wish they sang it that way in the original Your so last Summer version..

  • @Badxluckx21 i dont. its contradicts the whole songs meaning. im glad they only did it live

  • he sings the verses in tune it sounds like but the chourus....not too good.

  • :S FAIL!

  • This is the best live performance of TBS ever!

    And I miss Fred too!

    Everybody who likes and misses Fred

    go check out The Color Fred it's his new band!

    Well like a couple years old but new to me! :)

  • I miss Fred :(

  • that was horrible.

  • This song shouldn't have been done acoustically anyway. It doesn't fit.

  • were they drunk

  • @ilovegibsons1 woah, name stealer much? lol

  • @lovesgibson omg! 

  • I just think his voice adds to the emotion making the experience better...

  • i dont really know this band that well, and i dont know this song, but this singer fucking sucks, im sorry, but he really does

  • @steveofob15 Listen to some of their other live shows, not acoustic. They're a really good studio band, but most of the time an equally good live band. This comment it kinda late. Hahahaha. Sorry.

  • what is this "pitchiness" word you idiots keep using

  • i'm just saying to the haters. hes famous because of his pitchiness

  • I actually kind of like the pitchiness.  Adds to the authenticity.

  • Adam's voice has a good tone but he is TERRIBLE at keeping in tune. Luckily for him, tuning is the one thing out of the two that can be easily altered in the studio so he sounds awesome on the albums

  • 1:04 glassjaw ftw ;D tbs= pure epicness xDD

  • adams voice is so raw

    fuck you guys!

  • my ears are bleeding

  • ummm pitchiness is adam's trademark... just sayinnn

  • @SmellThePurple24 His trademark is, indeed, being an embarrassingly horrible singer. I love TBS's records, but Adam makes their live performances impossible to enjoy.

  • @frezno109 haha thats not true at all. i've seen him live so many times and he's not a horrible singer at all. his voice is mad different from a lot of bands out there and he sounds just as good at shows as he does on the records.

  • woooooooooooooh, omgah Adam is SO off key. :D

  • @masseffectrock dude(tte)...his voice is so pitchy. the don't in the first line goes sharp at the end, 'dime' goes all over the place both times, 'overrated' is sharp and the chorus is sharp the entire time. i could go on for days haha. don't get me wrong, i like the band a lot, butttt this is not a good performance.

  • haha, i forgot how mediocre they were live.  hopefully adam's a better singer these days...seein' em at the metro.

  • @oldsadeyes what are you talking about? His voice is pretty much perfect here.

  • This song is one of those that shouldn't be attempted acoustic...

  • i dont think he is off cause every acoustic performance is unique... its just the a new style that he wanted to show to his audience

  • this makes me cry <3

  • i dont know what every ones problem is they always sound amazing and adoms a very suductive man;)

  • If you're a fan of acoustic music check out my page and let me know what you think!

    The Keepsake

  • the singer is off tune

  • @ManaS00sta4 I'd like to see you do better :)

  • its acoustic so yah its sung different not wrong... its a great performance

  • i don't think he sang on pitch once in the first minute and a half of this... damn.

  • @GirlintheAwning his voice is probably off because he has a dislocated hip and smashed in face

  • He's not a very adaptive singer. So if the song was tuned down for an acoustic session, he wouldn't hit those notes too well. Otherwise, he's an alright singer.

  • this sucks dick

  • Everyone should check out my bands acoustic cover of this song! please comment

  • they are awesome and i love this song but something was off somewhere..... his voice is off pitch. possibly from being used to he song being electric?? oh well still awesome band!

  • @apachepepeto, no, bands bring the pitch down because most of the time, the highs you hear on recordings are edited, and the singers cant hit the notes live

  • @BlackWidowsScenario yeah they might bring it down, but they are usually still in key. he is completely off half the time. he could have brought it down an octave or down to a third or another harmonic to make it sound nice if he couldnt hit the notes, but he is just completely off. there is a difference

  • haha

  • they where probABLY TIRED

  • it'd be nice if their guitars were in tune.

  • It's commonplace to tune down for live stuff. A lot of singers can't hit what you hear on the records.

  • " i would never lie to you, unless I had to i'll do what i got to, unless i had to i'll do what i got to the truth, is you could slit my throat and with my one last gasping breathe I'd apolagize for bleeding on your shirt" the most amazing lyrics

  • you guys are all dumb he really sucks in some other concerts.He is not that good live, but this acoustic version is one of their best ! I think its brilliant... Try some vocal classes and then you guys come to comment again!

  • i  love them suck :)

  • i don't care about other people's opinion.

    what matters is that i love how TBS sounds.
