Anberlin - Paperthin Hymn [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

[bombojo99]

i always think about berlin tho

[AwesomeMel13]

Whaaaat?! He died?! What the- Sigh... I guess you shouldn't take any friendship personal, huh? I hate the story but like the song... "Come play some violins, become my only friend!!!!!"

[atomicfriendo]

anberlin sucks :)-~

[simjo1311]

this song is so good but so sad it is so sad i could start crying by just listen to it

[99freeze]

Great Song

[lexos1993]

This song is vastly underrated. Anberlin is such a great band and this song is their magnum opus.

[SilEnTGaMer13]

pls put the lyrics in the desc. i can't watch the other videos they're canceld for germany ;o

[Matzechu]

Anberlin, the most amazing band ever! *_*

[deweywas]

How incredibly insipid! yawn....

[helladank101]

IT JUST IS SO DAMN GREAT OF A SONG!

[MademoiselleJouJou]

such a amazing song... <3

[Bubbles567961]

Das ist wahrer Wahnsinn so mit Instrumenten umzugehen ,

Scheiß drauf das das Emo oder sonste was ist ,Musik ist Musik und die soll einen Menschen berühren .

Kurz gesagt : D Ich liebe es und das Video Too : D

[atomicfriendo]

@Bubbles567961 I agree, anblerin sucks :)-~

[iJrockable]

Why is it that on EVERY video for a song with deep lyrics (like this, for instance), someone has to spit out some pointless shit about it being "emo" or "stupid?" Anberlin is underrated.

[Kc7xify]

yOUR MOTHER

[Kc7xify]

Regardless its the greatest song, over and over 10 trillion times....

[LivingInAudio]

.....oh and in the video what its playing out is the fact that they promised that they would always be together over, and over, and that nothing would ever change that, but she wakes up to see her happy dream is a nightmare and the one she cares about is dying right next to her, so its like I thought you said you wouldnt leave me type ordeal, sad really but this whole song was made during a sad time!

[LivingInAudio]

This song is actually about one of the band members sister dying he was going threw such a hard time cause they were so close and from what I heard she had a lil girl who was left alone without a mom, so it was hard on the band cause they were feeling it too.....so in the end they wrote this song to put together the thoughts and words rushing threw his mind at this time, and as we see hear it turned into one of their best heart renching emotional classic hits

[Kc7xify]

This is the Greatest Song Ever, if you dont agree then you can go to hell =]

The 2nd chorus is phenomenal, and the song is amazing.

[deweywas]

Regardless, this song is insipid

[SpartanDara117]

great song, but the girl looks kinda ugly lol

[angelanegra06]

can anyone tell me what the vid and song means??

[Kamownevery1]

they had an accident. The girl was dreaming that the guy was already fine and he was waiting for her to feel well. In reality, the guy was dying and she was fine.

I think the song simply means the girl left him or something.

"I thought you said forever over and over"- like broken promise or something :P. such a great song.

[rabianluva123]

FIrst time I heard this song, I actually cried my eyes out. It's such a beautiful song and I can't top listening to it. GO Anberlin!!!

[star73191]

so sad... luv this song. where could you find the name if these actors in thecmysic video? cuz I was thinking that the guy in the video would make a great Christian ozera or Adrian Ivashkov for the book series Vampire Academy.

[kenzie325]

Dude everyone needs to chill. If you don't like anberlin don't watch the vid. All ur doing is giving them more views. I loove this song. I could listen to it over and over.

[UndyingGrace777]

Wut can I say? It brings tears to my eyes everytime :')

[alvaradoc1464458]

God bless them and their music! may they touch the lives of those that dont know christ, so that with their music people will come to get to be in a relationship with Jesus ! Amen ! Keep Rocking out cool music guys ! :)

[Jackregeltdas]

Best Song of them !

Great ! 5/5

[BurgeonBlitz]

One of the best songs EVA!!!! :D

[PHOTONPANDA0312]

[faz16]

[Griffolion0]

Would just like to point out, the father of the girl who stands over her towards the end is the same guy who plays the owner of the Pawn shop in the video for 'The Reason' by Hoobastank.

Anberlin are ace.

[Roshiball]

i see them tomorrow.

yeah, and what?

[Gutturalxlove]

The best video ever !

[dacasu68]

[ZImaPlo]

nice video.... anberlin its amazing!

wow!

[goalie33boy]

Anberlin is incredible

[goalie33boy]

why go on there youtube videos if you dont like thm??

[abcand123ftw]

When you say that it feels like i want to vomit.

[atomicfriendo]

Then vomit!

[abcand123ftw]

I just did.

[atomicfriendo]

so did I

[abcand123ftw]

Yes you we're vomiting because you saw the mirror.

[atomicfriendo]

hahahaha, brilliant come back...loser

[abcand123ftw]

Thanks, jealous much?

[atomicfriendo]

What? Go away abcand123ftw, you're not even funny. Are you even old enough to be here?

[abcand123ftw]

Ask that question to yourself.

[atomicfriendo]

abcand123ftw just shut it dude.

[abcand123ftw]

Wow you give up easily.

[atomicfriendo]

abcand123ftw, maybe if you said something that was half-assed intelligent then that's something else. But seriously dude, I'm not into having a verbal war with some 8 grade twerp.

[abcand123ftw]

Wow, who said you were.

[atomicfriendo]

dude, you're an idiot go away.

[abcand123ftw]

You go away.

[manherrygers1]

i wonder what the story is with this clip? the accident thing makes sense, but i suppose she could've needed like an organ transplant and he gave her one and while she was recovering from it, he didnt and died? or vice versa i think that could fit too, right?

[srs5211]

one of the members wrote this about his sister who had passed at a young age.

[bleedthesound]

actually, at the end she wakes up from a coma. She has been dreaming throughout the video that she was sick, her bf was fine and taking care of her. But she wakes up & the reality is that he is dying. The last scene shows role reversal, she even wears his white shirt! that's abit confusing though. I'm thinking that that is what the guy sees in his mind before he passed away

[AnberlinFlip]

Probably the easiest anberlin song to play, but obviously the best

[TheLastFinale]

@AnberlinFlip Usually the easier songs are really good.

Like Sweet Child O' Mine.

[DarkxAngelx419]

the video is so sad showing all of us that sometimes life is nothing without them

[Revan09]

This video almost made me cry... Really... Ok... I cried like a baby T_T

[Kamownevery1]

uhm the girl is just dreaming all along.. wow

[eclaire291]

I like the fact that they show the band playing in the room with the X-rays. It really speaks about the violent, sorrowful, and sometimes grateful emotions that find themselves there. I don't know if I explained that well.

Anyway, this song is amazing. The video was a brilliant complement to the song.

[rejectofmisery]

in dreams, only can our loved ones say good bye... after they die

[sillylittlestinker]

What is the exact story with the couple in the video? Also, i think the lyrics, "when life is in discord praise ye the Lord", are very true to what is happening the our world today. Awesome band that is christian and dosn't suck.

[volleyballer2395]

I'm think the guy and the gurl got in an accident and then the gurl is dreaming while shes in a coma that shes all better and that the guy is ok and he's pushing her around the hospital and then when she wakes up she finds that hes not ok and that hes dying. and btw theyre not a christian band. they even say theyre not

[kroovyandcal]

are they british? american?

[bloodspiller101]

American

[aska14344]

these thoughts run through my head over and over

[sillya7x]

the video is so amazing.. and so sad :(

[Kamownevery1]

the girl is cute... It took me several times watching this before I noticed it though :p

[Torres9922]

Cute girl.

[xoFaithAlchemistxo]

luuuv this viid!!! LOOVE IT KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK U SMEXIIII GUYYZZ!! LMAO xD!

[stardreamerlove]

you do know this is a christan band jsut saying

[Naanonnsss18]

oh well doesn't matter they still make awesome music

[NSKMD71]

Thats not a bad thing and there music is still the best thing since sliced bread!

[championhearted13]

If youve heard any interviews of the band, they say they're a band with christian members.

This is the first song i heard by Anberlin and it was the one that got me addicted too.

[stardreamerlove]

y is everyone making a big deal cuz i said they r a christain band i wasnt saying that was bad its just all these ppl r like there so emo and stuff and their not im a christan and i love anberlin

[Rafazakaran]

They're not a christian band, just the members are. They're more of a rock/Alternative rock band.

[ilovegeeway1000]

WOAH!BLOND STEPHEN CHRISTIAN!!!

[trasky17]

Does It Really Matter If They Are Emo/Rock Or Whatever.. Music Is Music, And Everyone Has Their Own Opinion On It.. Its There To Make You Happy So Just Listen To It If You Like It Without Having A Debate On It?

[xibts128ix]

Very well stated.

[Kamownevery1]

I love the guitars. kinda similar to other bands I like.

[MabelProductions]

The best song out of all their songs up to date <3

[minigand]

i mean it doesn't seem like they are that emo come on.... why does it matter anyway?

[scollop]

They are Rock/Alternative.

It says so on their myspace and who better to decide what genre they are then the band itself. I hope that clears up the matter.

This video is awesome.

[Rafazakaran]

Emo is a category in alternative, and this band more suits emo then any of the other categories.

There isnt anything wrong with it being classed as a emo song/band anyways, just a style of music.

[ellayybellayy142]

This song isnt emo... its just a way that some people live their lives! anberlin.forever.<3

[BalletBabe91]

favorite band... amazing

[jasondunnrocks]

:D I'm obsessed now xD

[jasondunnrocks]

Sick, amazing, awesome song! xD

:( Sad but good video.

[dash64neo]

hey blackquestion, don't judge. i think the bands you like suck. get the real message of the song and stop stereotyping music. fag.

[blackquestion]

gay emo god this band sucks

[jasondunnrocks]

Emo? So? What do you like, the Jonas Brothers? If it sucks so much don't watch the video then. 0_o

[schrodingerscat19]

this isn't fucking emo

[licocipoton]

yes it is and dont be ashamed. Its good music man

[shachadran]

It's not emo.

Learn genres please.

[licocipoton]

It has been emo. Media and people have made emo like a weak genre, only for guys that kiss. Understand, Anberlin is 100000% EMO!!!!! And like I said again, is nothing wrong with being emo.

[shachadran]

And again. You're wrong.

[licocipoton]

I dont understand why you guys try so hard to dispute if Anberlin is EMO or not. Am I harming your boyhood/manhood sense?! RELAX! They are straight up EMO and its good music. DO NOT BE ASHAMED boys and girls.

[Dethshoot1]

It's fucking alternative... not emo.

[licocipoton]

faaaar from alternative ..... Its more EMO than alternative. I have asked Christian myself, his answer was: "Hmmm, I sort of tend to place ourselves in the rock scene, but I keep hearing my managers and some people in the band saying WE ARE EMO/POST ROCK so I guess we should be called EMO (chuckles) ". That was just right after they came out with Never Take Friendship Personal.

[BlackMuayThaiTiger]

THey probably only said that for a joke like the way they said that they sold out for the money, Anberlin is alternative rock n always have been, if anythingy they are more likely to fit into their own category of rock because their so good and their music covers all genres which is why their considered to be an alternative band

[shachadran]

You're seem like your trying pretty hard to dispute it.

[OCD3DG]

their not emo,god.

their christian rock.

jesus.

[licocipoton]

christian rock= dc talk,skillet,pillar,etc.

christian rock=Includes explicit lyrics about Jesus, faith and Salvation.

get it right guys, for as long as you guys keep arguing the fact that Anberlin is an emo band, I will be coming back with disputable facts.

[mynameisdarthbader]

sounds to me like you dont have a life...

[licocipoton]

I actually do, check out my band, we play heavy metal

Search: Era de Guerra.

I also go to a lot of shows, I took my wife (back then she was my girl) to an Anberlin show. thats her favorite band.

...And theyre emo.

[LostVampirePrincess]

I cried at the end of the video =(

[HunterToJumper]

I love the song, and the video too! I now have a new favorite song/band, and a wider window to the music world, Thank you Anberlin!

[aznpride4life963]

Great song and great video to go along.

[morethanneutral]

love this song!!!!!! best anberlin song!!!! and best CATCH on tooth and nail last year???? Or was the fold better?

[dinkiuk06]

bless album ever!

[stefandagaerag]

i think the guy sacrificed his life for the girl.. kinda like how Jesus died so we could live..

[BlackMuayThaiTiger]

that was my thoughts exactly mate

[nickbob01]

just cant figure out why he ends up in the hospital... anyone know?

[omni721]

I think that its because it was only a dream by the girl while she was in a coma the entire time, and instead of him looking after her, he's been dying next to her the entire dream

[nickbob01]

very awesome song and video!!!

[Vitinhu501]

soo awesome : D

[Doomzor58]

the singer has a really cool voice imo.

[antisickness]

This is crazy good. I can't stop listening to this song lolz. Well goodluck rocking the world. Paperthin Hymn+Godspeed= Are Awesome. Keep rocking guys.
