[buschleaguers75]

This band has as much potential as anyone to make a major impact in the rock n roll scene.........an impact that is desperately needed

[Chibibles]

[Mohdaydi]

10 Stupid people dislike this ..with all my respect

[torku3]

[DropTheDaggerRomeo]

The emotion in Shaun's voice is just... indescribable. Shame is such a strong emotion which is so rarely talked about. This song hits me hard every time.

[DeaniosBH]

[MrMansonator]

[DrummingAli93]

They are UNDERrated. They are a very insane band

[WizardSool]

[xxTOXXICBLOODxx]

Shaun is one of the greatest singer, there's so much pain and sincerity in his voice..

[Alanik22]

His voice makes this song touch me deeply!

[annamixali]

[dontreadthis21]

That's pretty cool that he uses a nylon string guitar for this accoutic...rarely done by most rock artists.

[staindatheart]

goose bumps. nuff said.

[VeRnaKaMaRat16]

Me & my friend just learnd this song on guitar:D

[musicmydrug10]

I agree that this is one of the best Rock bands ever... There's so many, but not all can write and execute a song like the boys of Seether, they're such beautiful souls!

[simplejackgo]

this is what a real singer sonds like take notes vocalist

[lollipopdream1]

Shauns voice is so full with emotion - which triggers memories for me - not to mention the guitar is beautiful

[rockashlee]

the song is about drug addiction..

[Shy610]

@rockashlee Thats where your wrong.

[pi3cingl0v3]

Funny thing is the video being in bad quality almost looks intentional.

[ikaros0000]

This song explains more than a letter ever could.

[egelskisvip]

great song :) ..

LOVE seether :D ..

[rodssslive]

They are so underrated... god! This songs awesome.

[star63315]

this is another one of my favorite Seether songs!!!!!

[MrFreezeFlame]

I've always thought this song was about suicide.... "The Gift" being the gift of life.

"I don't belong here and I'm not well".  Makes sense to me.

[NeverSleptSoSoundly]

omg... 4:09-4:15<3 I love when he does that with his voice and I love that drum part

[AddOnMe]

Seether, simply the best of the best. What a voice!!!!!

[navnig]

great...no...fantastic! voice!

[wolfeman85]

@PapaGeorgio8171 lol are you fuckin five years old

[bigzohn]

Believe in me - send no money

I died on the cross, that ain't funny

But my so-called friends they're making me a joke

They missed out what I said like I never spoke

They choose what they want to hear - don't tell a lie

They just leave out the truth as they're watching you die

Saving your souls by taking your money

Flies around s**t, bees around honey

[NeverSleptSoSoundly]

this song is amazing acoustic

[bereberebere1995]

many artist say that the studio sometimes ruins the sound in this case i like seether acoustic and they are amazing in every way FUCK POP FUCK MUSIC INDUSTRY_I_

[krazykre23]

I had no idea this band sounded so great live! I'm really impressed. And what an awesome song. I wish i had looked them up sooner! Better late than never i guess :)

[facelessXIII]

One cold night is an awesome DVD and a must have for any seether fan.

[TheHouse1221]

Looooovvveee Seether! Could listen to them all day long!

[bigzohn]

Believe in me - send no money

I died on the cross, that ain't funny

[PapaGeorgio8171]

@rayne8a hold me now i need to feel complete like i matter to the one i need......./MrBigjohn817 Breathe, breathe in the air don't be afraid to care leave but don't leave me look around, choose your own ground for long you live and high you fly and smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry and all your touch and all you see is all your life will ever be for long you live and high you fly but only if you ride the tide and balanced on the biggest wave,,,,,,,,,,,

[Truchristianrocker]

amazing performance not many bands can pull off live performances this was great

[berettausa1983]

WOW, wouldn't you say the true test of a Band's talent is a live performance? Great, is anyone else sick of auto tune and computer vocals/instramentals? A GENUINELY great band. Stoked for the future of what's to come from Seether.

[JessTheCRAZyOne]

Im in love with the acoustic guitar in this song XP. a true masterpiece to me.

[FastisFast]

[jujuyah19]

This song brings me right back to my past ... : /

[jerbatista]

beautifull song

[Beccamplified]

im learning this on guitar right now - just it doesn't sound quite right. im guessing the tuning should be flat? i dont really have much more ideas.

this is my favourite song in the whole wide world.

[MrRockerperson]

yo i can play this its drop d tuning thats how i play it want me to send u the tab?

[MrRockerperson]

wait it is tune half a step down sorry

[420beerman]

It should be drop d flat, or drop d and half step, samething

[FCUBlade]

hehe ur right its in D# or Ed how ever u want to call it half step down, not drop D

[gunsnroseswttj]

i play it in drop d it sounds the same but i think they play it in half a step down tuning

[FastMovingZombie420]

I get chills when the second verse hits. This song feels like a chapter in an unwritten book of my life.

[oysta44]

so true my friend. I feel the same way

[DeathBone666]

oh yeah! this song is like Sugar for my Soul...

[seasonsmith]

is the whole band South African????

[Quatermain98526]

No, just Shaun Morgan (vocals, guitar) and tDale Stewart (basist) are South African. John (drummer) is from Texas, and Pat (guitar) is from Pennsylvania.

[killthefuckingenemy1]

This was actually recorded in Philly. And The version on this album for broken without Amy Lee is way FUCKING BETTER!!!!

[walk6452]

Yes totally agree that Broken is better without Amy Lee. It is more raw and has so much more feeling in it without her.

[TankvsKimbo]

YUP YUP.

[angelarcher1202]

Very Nice!

much respect,

k :)

[Jessangel100]

" BECAUSE OF ME", nothin plastic about this shit-many signed groups get signed, for airplay,so rec. company make cash, i live in philly, they never play seether here, you might hear ,a tune ,a couple a times a week...

[gggggg99]

THe growling is awsome and unique.

[SILELISA]

this music goes straight to the soul and to the heart... my boyfriend just told me about them and I already love them.

Seether, you are just Amazing!

[eeteenpeer]

[Katalina6666]

*shauns

[Katalina6666]

i love shawns voice and the songs ist the best

[gilgansalt]

haha going back to thedomeasses comment, we all used to like 50 cent and eminem and shit haha, and used to beat up the kids that listened to slipknot at school. now mostly every shirt in my closet is either slipknot or rise against, have a few seether's in there too. funny huh?

[carbomb47]

No refunds on souls.

[MetallVampire]

:( I lost my soul

[RoastySmish]

I love this song... D':

[thedomeasses]

wow after i started listining to this the whole genre of music i listen to changed i used to like eminem ALOT but now i dispise him!!!

[12pain12]

holy shit what a change :D but im happy that youre in this genre now xD

[tact420]

ha me too exactly i used always listen to rap but now i only listen to alternative type rock we realized what real music is lol

[DeafTune84]

any band like this is seether ad staind ..... only bands i REALLY can get attached 2

[jacob112291]

wow....

[AquariZMusic]

always been a huge fave of mine.

[matt18max]

I love Seether their amazing and this is one of their best songs. You should all check out my songs and tell me what you think.

[musicmydrugdrg]

Not only do they all sing in harmony, but their guitars play off each other so naturally and flowing... It's pure sypmphony every time I hear it....

[Artionis]

One of my Top Three Bands! Gosh i luv this song... and all of Seether's music:)

[Hakapiks42]

You can hate me if you want (I don't mind) but I seriously think they've surpassed Nirvana in terms of shear talent and greatness.

[sprinkleday]

ummm..really? are you sure that's what you wanted to say?

[amaizenblue]

er, no.

[ZakkG396]

I dont really think of nirvana is that good anyway....

[ptilou77131]

franchement rien a dire je suis en kiffe! en gros je suis love de ce groupe!

[amonsong]

beach mom im sorry you are misinformed,but this is acoustic ,1 /5 players.ive been clean 2 yrs still i feel sad.keep it real mom ,your way underrated love amon

[mjl292008]

best rock band ever!!!

[beachmom1982]

this is not acoustic, acoustic is when it is just the singer and the guitar no drums no bass just the acoustic playing just wanted to clear that up ;=)

[trivialmusic]

Who gives a shit...it's a beautiful version to a beautiful song.

And for the record, what you described is called, "solo"...not acoustic.

If you notice, the 6-string guitars are electric/acoustic...electric for the amplifier inside the body of an acoustic guitar.

Please, learn your terminology and gear before spouting shit.

[dimezakkrandy]

This version is better than the studio version.

[jerbatista]

Great song, great voice!!

Seether rules

[OredhotchilipeppersO]

Fucking this song rocks the fuck out of fucking every fucking thing fuck.

[dtc121]

fuckiddy fuck fuck!

[kradobes]

I fucking love Seether.

[Withinscars]

Forever

[StephenHarrisonMusic]

Great Tune By A top BanD -

[86collind]

why are u stupid fucks worried about what he looks like appreciate the music godamn if u wanna tell someone to stop painting their fingeails or cut their hair tell that fag marilyn manson to stop acting like a fucking girl or tell bret michaels washed up ass to take his eye liner and fruity bandana off cuz he looks like a douche bag

[jeffnerohardyfan]

lmao..bret michaels washed up ass...lmao....

[guitarmaster35]

Whoa, whoa, whoa, leave Manson out of this. Without that man, the music industry would be even more restrictive and corrupt than it already is. But yeah, Brett Michaels needs to go away.

[Saffranet]

love this song <3

[kradobes]

I love this song :)

[diesupelnova]

i could listen to this for hours! <33333

[marythomson]

same :)

<3

[ljcjdb123]

dannyboyspence8099,....how gay are you???

[mangavampress]

shaun is such an amazing singer, his voice alone makes you feel everything he does... this song makes me wanna cry

[stacipoitra]

goshhh, shaun is amaazing!

[ergar90]

to all the people who say songs are better when you can relate to them...'who has not felt ashamed?'

[Violencedefined666]

Seether is an extremly under-rated band, they're great, sure, their music isnt the most technical in the world, but anyone who defines music by technicality alone doesnt know shit about music. It's all about what comes from the heart, not what comes from your knowledge of music theory. They play and write the music they love, at the end of the day, no one has the right to bash anyone for doing what they love.

[Savannah5123]

dude yeah your totally right..i can't stand people who think they know so much about music theory..it really is about what comes from the heart

[NothinButSeether]

Shaun can sing in any key and it will sound awesome! He has such raw emotion that comes out quite naturally for him. Best sound out there by far ... certain to have staying power for years to come!!!

[santinumi]

Standard song.Same chords,same melody progression,standard.This music is pretty easy to play (and to compose) ; i just laugh to people that use electronics shit to play this genre.

[KYDRIVER1]

I can't confirm this but, when I listen to seether live and on an album there is hardly any difference, so I can almost guarantee he doesn't use the studio to keep pitch. I hate when bands use electonics to make them sing better if you can't sing get a day job, these wanna be singers are taking money out of the pockets of people with some talent.

[KillingYouForMe]

Seether are, I think, one of the few genuine bands that still enjoy success. They use next to no studio engineering, not even drum triggers, its all just raw talent and emotion. And nowadays, bands don't make shit from record sales, so its all down to the live performance and people like Seether will always kick the ass of wannabes in that department any day =]

If you ever get the chance....see them live....its a hell of an experience

[VOXTREES]

great song.

[aLtuq1453]

great song

[whowants2know369]

such a good band, so much passion behind thier songs

[nyguesswho]

All these idiots, trying to find the meaning behind a song. Musicians hate people like you, songs are to be interpreted by each person, not studied to try to find out the exact meaning, to a T

[Quatermain98526]

You fucking idiot, this song is about his daughter. Shaun even admitted that in an interview.
