  • Question: What do you think he means by "Maverick"?

  • @PrestonlikesitRuff It means he's isolating himself. It fits perfectly with the song.

  • The fray completes me

  • Good

  • @mathenysabrina oh and Vienna doesn't necessarily have to be taken literally. Though the song plays out like it is, it could also just be a metaphor for starting anew without her/him. It feels like a foreign place.

  • @mathenysabrina it's about the end of a relationship. There's a lot to it. They try to pretend it's not so sad (verse 2) but in the chorus he admits it's truly over. And the bridge is about holding onto the hope you'll find each other again someday.

  • This song always, ALWAYS hits me so damn hard.... sometimes you have to let the people you love go, even if you can't go on without them.

  • i swear, every time that i listen to this song, it just puts me into a trance, I love the fray

  • What the heck is this song about?

  • So proud that I'm from Vienna! <3 I love The Fray.

  • Why are The Fray and Daughtry even compared? Those are completely different types of music...

  • ♥♥♥

  • Please come to Vienna / Austria <3

  • Majority of the songs from this band I like, and that's rare. Usually I like 2-3 songs from a band.

  • Daughtry and the Fray are BOTH good!! :D

  • @Jennywithasmile those are two bands, along with lifehouse, i've seen in concert! AMAZING

  • one of my FAVORITE songs by this band.

  • whoever compares the fray to fucking daughtry should honestly get their fucking ears checked. daughtry blows asshole,the fray is the shit.

  • love this song so deep <3

    

  • the fray is the fucking best dude, no doubt at all.

  • i love when he says "theres really no way to reach me". this song is perfect :)

  • This song makes me think that this whole album is a storyline, for some reason.

  • maverick means something like loner, misfit or lone wolf.

  • I love this song so much

  • Thanks a lot:-)

  • Im from Denmark, and i love the fray the Lyrics is great! but what the hell does "maverick" means??

  • @TheMG1610 A rebel or someone who doesnt listen to the rules. To be honest i dont really understand its usage in this song

  • There's really no way to reach me, cuz I'm already gone.......

  • this song is so beautiful.

  • i miss you so much :(, one day ill come live with you jess in vienna :(

  • <3 the fray

  • I wish there was a repeat button:/

  • @expeiramentalvampire download firefox, then you can download the app that will create a loop button here on youtube and you'll never have to hit the replay button again. :)

  • @chercherchercher Also on Google Chrome

  • @expeiramentalvampire 0:00 repeat button!

  • @expeiramentalvampire just make a playlist with only this song in it and put autoplay on :)

  • <3 this song is amazing.

  • I think this is the most beautiful song I have ever heard. It's just perfect. Nothing less.

  • 2 of the greatest artists to me sing the greatest songs starting with Vienna:

    Owl City and The Fray!!

  • listen to the start(piano) of the song. Then listen to the beginning of How To Save A Life.

    :) nuff said

  • I sang this song for my school's Choir Variety Show. I loooove it(:

  • @OLykHayAMANDA POST VIDEO!!

  • I neverrrr get tired of this perfect song. The Fray> Daughtry

  • @MILLIONHITSVIDEOS The Fray and Daughtry aren't even the same, I don't think you can really compare them.

  • @IcePhoenix302 ye but they're both alt rock

  • @MILLIONHITSVIDEOS not to say daughtry isn't good though but YES the Fray beats most other bands

  • U now what I love most about the fray? That there songs are so different and in there unique way but they all give the same meaning and the same happy-go-lucky feeling that I can't get enough of :)

  • @kiyla29 they dont seem very happy go lucky. Idk. thats just me

  • @Jador911 Oh yea i was talkin in general, all of there songs make me feel good insinde, like im not allone

  • There's really no way to reach me . "Vienna" let it end and let the new begin.

  • Check out the Perennials. They are a similar genre. Look up "theperennialsarewe" on youtube.

  • Could someone give me a clue about what the meaning of this song? who is vienna? is that person dead or something?

  • @RYansAdams79 Vienna isn´t a person, it´s a three thousand year old city, currently rated as the best city in the entire world.

  • The Fray's songs inspire me to draw, draw the mood of the song. Which makes me want to be an artist when I grow up :3

  • @xoxoxaDORKablexoxox forgiveness...forgive the person who was responsible, if you blame yourself, then forgive yourself, release it to God and let him heal your heart. I know this from experience, my 5 yr old cousin was killed by a hit and run driver, but with God's help I think about him with great joy and not sorrow.

  • 1.pause at 0:00

  • great song man...love it!

  • Amazing song.

    Makes me think of all the loved ones I've lost recently.

    Never take a day for granted.

    && Remember; every minute counts, savor it. <3

  • @xoxoxaDORKablexoxox

    You must be my very dear friend Chelsea.

    And doll, all we can do is hold onto his memory.

    It was so so hard to lose Zach.

    And it'll keep being hard but it'll get easier babez.

    I promise.<3

  • @ReadyToFall55 I hope.....it's me again. I had to delete my other account. And it sure hasn't gotten any easier yet.

  • huii i'mfrom vienna xD

  • very beautiful song..

  • this song really takes me places! in a good way!

  • @crk416 Swears are just words, but he doesnt want people moaning and whining about non important things when others are tyring to enjoy the Frays amazingness.

  • i really like there music

  • I fell in love with this song like 2 years ago. Just taught myself how to play it and everything. By far my fav track by them

  • the best song title ever :D

  • This song is beautifull.

    It seems the writers of this song have seen the real parts of my hometown, which break your heart everytime you come to it.

    I've sold my soul to this city, and my love that lives in it.

  • I lived in vienna. this is my call home.

  • I've missed this song. Vienna has been a song that captivated me since I was young and hearing it again brings back such clear memories. This is exactly why I love The Fray. 

  • well, i live in vienna - i love vienna.

    i feel pretty much honored.

    however, this song is so touching and sums up a few parts of my life pretty much. gives me chills.

  • this song reminds me of my break up with Matthew Sharar

    hoping that it's the 5 years that we can talk again....because that'll be December of this year.

  • The opening of this song makes me melt..i love the piano<3

  • Prophetic***** Maybe in five or ten yours and mine will meet again, Straighten this whole thing out, "Maybe then honesty need not be feared as a friend or an enemy" But this is the distance And this is my gameface!!!!! Is there really no way to reach me? Am I already gone? So this is your Red Maverick And this is Vienna***** Very heart felt song***** Blessings to ALL "Chin Chin" Cinque Chente Anni Salute Ciao

  • Why would anybody thumbs down this song?! -people are dumb!

    This band/song.. so amazing!! i could listen to them all day!

  • i think this song would be perfect for the movie, "My Sisters Keeper"

  • "Maybe in five or ten, yours and mine will meet again, straighten this whole thing out...."

    I adore that line.

  • THis is definetly the best song they have ever written..I cant stop playing it

  • The songwriting here is just so phenomenal. Absolutely beautiful.....

  • thanks e08man for sharing such soulfull music! this song says so many words that you just sometimes cant say.... i love it :) <33333

  • I love this song that i name any pet i have Vienna!!! Right now I'm in Vienna the 5th!!!

  • Ok i am getting really really tired off this profanity on my vids so i am asking you nicely to stop if i see any more not that it may matter to yuo but i will delete the comment and block you

  • @e08man are you like 6? swears are just words buddy.

  • @crk416 Obv he listens to the fray

  • I kinda miss u hunter wear what happened?

  • Reminds me of my great grandmother. I was listening to this CD on the car ride away from the last time I saw her. I hardly spoke to her, I knew she was sick and dying. The next day we got a call saying she had died. She was already gone. I wish I had another chance to tell her how much I love her and let her see she could be so proud of my accomplsihments.

  • @ShutupCR3W i'm sorry that happened :(

    but im positive she already knows you love her. Perhaps she's even watching you do all the accomplishments you do now. Who knows? But don't feel guilty for what happened, we all make mistakes.

  • im going to vienna snif

  • Reminds me of my closest friend ever, she was my life, and she moved to Canada, and died in a car crash. When I got the phone call, there was really no way to reach me anymore, my soul was crushed. I am somewhat repaired, but she is always in my heart, never letting her go, this song reminds me of her happiness that she linked to me... :/

  • gotta love this

  • amazing vocals, piano, drums. i really think that they r way beyond there time, they have such a universal sound that can identify wit anyone, rather if u like pop or r and b or rock

  • this song reminds me of when it was christmas and i was just sitting in a park on my own

    then my amazing girlfriend came along

    best present i ever got

  • i just sat and watched the vlouds for this song.... fuckin beautiful......

  • Comment removed

  • THE FRAY is WAY UNDERAPPRECIATED. I think I listened to them for nearly a solid year back in 2007 or 2008...

  • kinda depressing

    but beautiful

  • ahh the nostalgia!

  • @FleurOlivia

    I tried, but YouTube doesn't like links in comments!

    sparknotes(DOT COM)/missmarm/2010/03/26/music­al-fiction-contest-long-distan­ce

    That might work, just substitute for the parentheses ...

  • Tera your a modern day miracle!! i really love you!!!

  • i live in vienna ;) haha ♥ love this song so much :D

  • Brittany T,i can't express how much i care about you.This beautiful song is for you.G

  • this song means alot to meh alot

  • The Fray changed my life completely... I can relate to all of their songs and when I listened to this song for the first time I cried! It was one of the most powerful songs I have EVER heard. I continue listening to the songs and usually I get hooked on it and really thats not very easy to do for me. I recomend The Fray to anyone who has not seen God. It really opens your heart :)

  • I wrote a story based on this song.

  • @SeptemberCrew

    Do you want to share it with me/us?

  • I think a lot of their songs have to do with what's going on with them personally so i don't think any of us could determine very accurately what they mean...

  • God so beautiful

  • you can NEVER get to much of the fray

  • when i hear this song, i interpret a different way than most do, i think.

    when he says "there's really no way to reach me, cause i'm already gone", i don't take it as literal. i take it like he's too far down, as in he spiraled to the bottom, that no matter what you say you could never show him the light or make him realize his wrong.

    that's probably not how he meant it, but i LOOOVE this song and it's one of my favourites. <3

  • I want this song at my funeral <3

  • @underSTEIN Great idea...

  • luv this song.the fray knows how to get to their audience

  • @EmeraldXSapphire09. If the day you die is the day he stops writing, you might not have that long of time! XD

  • what does "this is Vienna", is it just literal?

  • sometimes lyrics are very esoteric, perhaps something happened in vienna or something... who knows :)

  • I thought this song about break up, but death sounds more suitable! "I'm already gone..."

  • epic. beautiful.

    no more words.

  • Depressing and yet so captivating.

  • This song is great. i love it so much(:

    And i really want to learn how to play it on piano now.

    It has a lot of meaning.

  • This song is truly meaningful....brings back so many memories...

  • This is simply beautiful. The day Isaac Slade stops composing will be the day I die:P

  • @EmeraldXSapphire09 so the exact day you die he stops? please god don't die!

  • no words to describe the beauty of this song!!!

  • simply beautiful

  • i could never imagine writing a song like this myself, how and where the inspiration for this song came from, id like to know.

  • lovely song touches your heart makes u think makes u understand stuff Epic in a calm sense Love it

  • can someone please tell me just what a maverick is??

    no one i ask knows!

  • a maverick is an independant person, in thought and in action.

  • A maverick is a reploid that has been corrupted (normally by the Sigma / Zero Virus) and begins to attack humans.

  • what an amazing song with amazing piano

  • i know songs like this makes me want to learn how to play the piano even more

  • One of the best songs I've ever heard..

    5 stars!

  • i complete agree..

  • you ask for thumbs up so i give you thumbs down :P

  • I love the way they don't really ever make much sense in what they say, but you get what they mean anyway

  • i'd have to disagree. Their lyrics have SO much meaning, and it all makes sense - just look deeper. They dont say anything without meaning, honestly.

  • hm, alright, I'll try

  • Maybe in five or ten yours and mine will meet again

    Straighten this whole thing out

    Maybe then honesty need not be feared as a friend or an enemy...

  • Found this song while looking for Vienna Teng... love it :)

  • beautiful songg

  • i love vienna.

    the city.

    and the song.

  • sammeeeee <3

  • i've never been one to believe in 'signs' but.. as i was debating whether or not to study in vienna, this song came up on shuffle freaked me out, made my decision. i wish they'd done a video for this song. what a gorgeous, unbelievable city... <3 forever.

  • reminds me of a time when me and my friend where gonna run away from home, we got into some trouble, so he moved to south carolina. now i listen to this song when i want to be reminded of him.. if you'd ever had a best friend move away, you'd understand.

    fuck you all anyways, you don't know the half of it....

  • oooooook

  • @e08man I really don't see how you could allow a comment like that. Why not delete it?

  • yeah i kind of relate, i snuck out of my friends house to see a friend i wasn't allowed to see.. now i don't see him AT ALL cause my friends mom found out...ftw

  • lol i gave you a thumbs up just because i loved the melodramatics of the last line of that . "fuck you all anyways, etc" HAHA

  • @smokethechronz420

    lol man, don't be so ignorant, I'm sure many of us have had a best friend move away, or lost a best friend, or something along those lines. Although it's different for everyone, you could be right we don't know half of it.

  • @smokethechronz420 Hahaha dude you kinda ended that one on a negative note there. I don't think anyone was making fun of you or even disagreeing with you. We can all relate to the feeling somehow, even if it's not caused by a friend we've lost. So take it easy :) The Fray are amazing.

  • @smokethechronz420 it sucks even more when your best friends dead she died on a motor bike crash she is on a better.peace

  • wow this song is too beautiful. the fray never disappoints me.

  • agreed :)

  • I love this song. It helps me calm down when I'm upset. It helps me calm down before a test....

    It's just a great song! The Fray is awsome!

  • yeah i listen to them to help clear my mind

  • beautiful.

  • listen people I heared of vienna 2 by the fray is it real ????

  • This song is my latest obsession. :)

  • No song has ever summed up my life so vividly. This is a beautiful piece, and I love it to death.

  • wow this video hits close 2 home rmnds me of soooo much that I"m still trying 2 leave bhind

  • This is my favorite song by them. I have loved it since it came outtt. Its beautiful<3

  • this is so beautiful... makes me cry..

  • i hope to write this type of music one day and lol they have many song i didnt even know abut =(

  • I dont even care what this song is about, Its just beautiful. As a musician this is the kind of song I hope to right someday.

  • hope to write*

  • staart saying this is the kind of music i will write

  • This song is really beautiful and touching in so many ways. I still think of her whenever I hear it....I think it's amazing how music can make you reminisce on past events in your life....

  • Well the song is in 3/4, as any other Viennese Waltz...

  • does anyone knows why is this song called vienna? I love this song but i dont understand. I went to vienna twice when i was little so i dont remember much
