Dashboard Confessional - Vindicated

[someidiot1980]

52 people have no taste in music.

[YoungAndAspiringX]

Perfect!

[Wolfdog109]

Dude you've got a voice no one can beat

[JewCrew4Dubstep]

Nothing compares...

[iDrinkMyFate]

I...think...I'm in love with this song. I admire the anger and rawness of it. Wouldn't change it a bit.

[TheSho]

yo is it just me or does anyone else see the similar resembelence of john travolta (younger)

[justin10adson]

where can i find a mp3 of this specific version of this song?

[drummmer101]

Broner

[drummmer101]

Browner

[marissafesta]

It doesn't get much better than this. This is music. So raw, so real and so amazing.

[Bitches337]

i have it a thumbs up.. but hes better in the studio.. just cracked up to much imo.

[jaybear2014]

i hear him sing this and i just wonder, how can he know how i'm feeling so well?

[junebaggins]

If y'all dig this.. check out Bob Dylan.

Their voices, both, are just emotion, emotion, untouched emotion. I hardly ever compare anyone to Dylan, but Chris is good. haha (:

[spiderfan117]

I had a boner.

[fricegoth]

Makes me think of the old amazing spiderman. Unadulterated emotional song!

[espsir]

purest of emo man...

[xxcosmos]

That dude felt the SHIT out of this song

[gren1977]

So angry!

[h0licede]

what chords is he using?

[JakeProductions]

@h0licede Tune down half step (Eb, Ab, C#, F#, Bb, Eb)

[ilyDino]

Amazing

[juandisoja23]

Love this song!!!

[joehjoehjoeh1]

This seems like he could end the song and then throw the guitar and punch a wall or something

Its awesome

[hi5s4blindkids]

He sucks live

[blahhayden]

@hi5s4blindkids Your hearing must be impaired bitch.

[josiah85667]

Spider-Man made me want to find this song

[justonepromise]

@josiah85667

with me it was the same case ;))

[MrDonJuanPagoaga]

As a guy that shit was raw performance at its best. #Chills

[Carlosl990snes]

Que Talento el de Dashboard Confessional

[sadaleine82]

gave me chills

[MadDogTom22]

that was the best song i vr ever heard i love it it is soooo GOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[krinikz11]

Chris carraba screams, awesome... i love it.

[olive6289]

oh man being drunk and listening to dash is better than any drug

[TehNinny]

@BotheredMe You know bugger all about emo, you're just as ignorant as the guy you're trying to correct/act superior toward. And in this act I'm attempting to sound superior. Correcting people online, why must you be a double edged sword of hypocrisy?

[myheadsonfire14]

I want to see him live sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooo bad

[Montopher]

Emotions are overwelming in this. O.o

[anniecakes777]

love him but he's singing like shit in this vid.

[nkdnikki042]

@anniecakes777 no, just singing like he means it...had someone sing this song to me and that's how it sounded and I loved it

[BgoshJosh]

for those of you who are hating on his voice, this is artistic singing, hes singing his heart out and shows emotion to his songs, hes not sucking hes actualy doing an amazing job, hes saying what he has to how he has too

[TheVictory516]

God the emotions in this just make it so much better.

[bmc112478]

wow

[Standard420247]

SOUNDS LIKE SHIT ACOUSTIC SOLO

[Ballin1600]

Absolutely incredible

[Squiggy2010]

Damn, he sang the hell out of this one. Good clip.

[BotheredMe]

I like how all the hate comments have no idea the musical talent Chris Carraba possesses. He sings and writes lyrics from his soul. He is the beginning and the epitome of what emo music (btw emo isn't that whiny screamo sh*t you hear from gothed up 20 year olds, it's the music that shows the artist's true raw emotions in their work).

[Billabongs122988]

@BotheredMe

Fuck you! Dashboards COnfessional is not emo!! They're just pure alternative rock, Mainstream emo started around Mid 2006, they're not emo!!.

[BotheredMe]

@Billabongs122988 You do know that mainstream emo is the crap I was talking about, right? 30 Seconds to Mars is the only 'mainstream' emo I like. Dashboard Confessional brought light to emo music, yes they are rock alternative, but they are mainly emo. You do know that emo is short for 'emotional' right? What do Dashboard Confessional's songs do to you? They make you FEEL the music. They make you as a listener a part of the music. That is what emo music is. Happy that I cleared it up for you?

[markuskentwood]

@BotheredMe hey junior. i was listening to dashboard when you were in diapers. 30 seconds isn't emo. dashboard was one of thousands that brought light to emo.

[BotheredMe]

@markuskentwood Hey, look who's the hipster here! Listen, unless you are 36 and Dashboard Confessional started playing in the womb, you aren't too much older then me. Dashboard Confessional was, as you said, one of the many bands that 'brought light to emo.' If you had seen any of the ten other posts I've written you'd have known I covered that. 30 seconds to mars is hard rock, emo, new prog, post-grunge, progressive metal. Google it!

[Melech135]

@Billabongs122988 yea your wrong bro, emo started in the underground washington d.c. scene in the mid 80's then it realy started in the 90's with bands like jaw breaker, cap'n jazz, sunny day real estate, mineral, nd the promise ring then started getting mainstream in the early 00's with dashboard and jimmy eat world. i love emo music!! x)

[lahaujet85]

this song remain me someone...........

[UltimateNinjja]

Love it! PERIOD!

[MarshmallouMatey]

Is That RayWilliamJohnson I See At The End Of This URL?

[suijin06]

Dashboard confessional is one person not a band.....

[horriblehistoriesful]

@suijin06 No...it's a band...

[goldenhiro]

@horriblehistoriesful Actually he's on his own here, hence it being acoustic.

[horriblehistoriesful]

@goldenhiro Ah my bad, you phrased it as if you meant in general, but you're right here-it is one person : )

[blinkers88]

Im not even gay.. well maybe I am after watching this

[alainaccount]

#1.....^^,> 

[disturbedrox2011]

WOW the shear emotion that comes out at 2:50 is incredible. how can you not love this

[darkmusiclove]

Completely and utterly amazing. I love this band even more because I am able to hear and see how truly talented they are and all the emotions that are put into their songs.

[TheKnightstalker951]

Tht is awesome... That right there is talent nd you cannot do tht with lip syncing especially with all tht emotion tht he put in it

[EnjoyDallen]

holy shit...THAT is fucking emotion...

[enqueue24]

Perfect.

[TrickedOutNameTag]

Beautiful.

Nuff said.

[prange7165]

I can hardly breath when I hear this.

[anotherrainyday24]

i wanted to cry while he was singing, this is raw emotion on a song that only true musicians can do

[mwolf95]

2:46-3:08 is the most real music i've ever heard. much better than any vocal fixation could possibly sound, that is what real, raw, from the heart music is supposed to sound like.

[blackrose93]

his voice caught me off guard. especially after hearing the other version. but....seeing him sing and hearing his throatiness just made me want to hug him =] very nice

[hect93]

:/ 

[vendweler]

That's a very raw performance sadly i hate the part 3:22 when the song ended haha to the 38 people who dislikes this video i bet your listening to that rubbish music of justin bieber(BEAVER) coz you can't appreciate this masterpiece

[leepelletier6]

The dislike button is entirely useless don't you think? What's the point of sharing what you dislike? If you don't like it leave it alone and don't listen. I've never felt the need to share my dislike for anything on youtube. Am I alone in this? This guy is so inspiring, there acoustics are my favorite, he's so passionate with his music

[DJSillzor]

he is too fucking talented... so good.

[ktgonzalez]

& he looks like he means it!

[Seabearful]

I will marry him!!!

[leek094]

i love him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[emotions51]

i guess, i am "cleaning up so well" :D

[sk8brder40]

Sounds like he's strained his voice too much and it's going out on the higher notes, but love this song

[annabelle138]

His concert was amazing.

[HoopeLooveandFaith]

damn!

thats what i call feeling!

[darindaify]

gooosebumps. 

[imyourdad44]

I'm going through the worst period of my life so far in 18 years, I cry everyday and just wanna die this song always makes me feel empowerd to keep going. Thanks DBC

[spazntard]

@imyourdad44

stay optimistic hold everyy day hostage..i do

[Juka94]

[Sparkcil]

@Juka94 itunes.apple.com/ca/album/dusk­-and-summer/id219949710

[FarCryFromHome]

This is what a musical Orgasm feels like

[prange7165]

@FarCryFromHome Sex to my ears.

[Skankindragon1]

@FarCryFromHome sounds better on the CD

[brycew2]

This sounds like when I have the squirts

[brycew2]

THis sound like poo

[ALETHX787]

excelente =)

[nday81]

Fck I need my x girl friend like now ekekekekek

[dannysmokes73]

@nday81 fag

[jrbalena]

i badly need my guitar right now.

[TheRAtboyFilms911]

this song's got some badass poetic devises!

[dnewhomeboy45]

just a pleasant song

[TheThebeatles1994]

this was my fav song on the spiderman 2 soundtrack

[stasyadeadsy]

Carrabba <3

[RckMtnStlrFan]

"I am flawed, but I am cleaning up so well"... I don't care who you are, these lyrics should speak to us all. Badass tune.

[TELLY1995]

@markmarymarkmark LMAO!

[lanceljlj]

wtf!!! this guy needs voice lessons!!

[XBUGMANX]

@lanceljlj his voice has not been rested... you can tell... there's nothing you can do about it when you're on tour nonstop... at least back in the day.

[dannysmokes73]

@XBUGMANX you and lancejj are both fucking morons.his voice doesnt need rest and he doesnt need lessons.thats just his unique you know nothing jerkoffs

[dannysmokes73]

@XBUGMANX you know nothing idiot

[Gom1094]

Good song but towards the end the screaming was a bit much

[Pumuckel1337]

2:47 - 3:10 If you take the whole feeling of an album of an emo band, it would never reach the level of feelings shown in this part.

[markmarkymarkmark]

For a moment there, I thought he'd turn into Hulk or something (2:58).....

hahahaha

[3Gannmann]

it's rare to see someone sing with this much passion... reguardless of what you think of this band

[6eeyore9]

you know its really funny that people call this video emo since this band is no where near emo... i got a lot of flack for coming out and stating that this song helped me get off drugs. I am in no way emo, but you know what?? It doesn't matter, I know whats I know (to paraphrase Popeye)

[6eeyore9]

sorry, can't be EMO sincieI am too old for that shit, too bad you can't iunderstand that EVERYONE has feelings whether you agree with them or not.... seems to me you need to grow some empathy or lose the selfishness and then you'll understand

[patterson350able]

Where is this shot at?

[kawenoodle32]

lmfaaooo I clicked 2:58 a couple times as well.. it's great

[Trowa71]

Ive probably clicked 2:58 About a half-million times... I raped and pillaged that button. I took that buttons family and threw them into a fire. That is just explaining how that button must feel after all of my clicks.

[Claubuza]

I turned the volume up since he was whispering the verse, then the chorus broke my eardrums.

[MiamiUenglish]

Really good song, but a pretty lame live performance I must say

[pgbruiser]

This guy sings this song the way I do in my car. With Passion & Power. Im sure you can relate. Certain songs just do it for us because of what the song means when we have associated lyrics with heavily felt emotions and experiences.

My main point being that it is really nice to hear a musician giving his heart to a song. How many times do we go to concerts or watch other singers on stage that just halfheartedly rush through songs that mean so much to us? That really pisses me off.

[SammehIsTehSeckz]

He sounds Horrible, he should be Ashamed

[meisrock]

@SammehIsTehSeckz did you see the end? he rocked it out :D!!!!! ya, at first his voice cracked, but you could do better? ha :P I LOVE Chris <3 like, ALOT!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lukemanthomson]

wow i just saw this on wikipedia 'On July 31 2010, Carrabba performed at the top of Pikes Peak in Colorado for the second annual Love Hope Strength Foundation and Health ONE Pikes Peak Rocks benefit, honoring cancer survivors and raising money and awareness for research and treatment. ' this guy is amazing thumbs up if u think wot he did was right xxx

[chrismcdonald16602]

@lukemanthomson ok like any one is going to say nooo boo to fighting cancer that was a cheap way of getting some thumbs up lol but i gave you thumbs up any way

[lukemanthomson]

lol the google transcribed thing FAILS!!!

[nikkiprincess11]

beautiful and sensational voice

[lolwutlexi]

2:47 and on is so poweful that its beautiful(:

love how he puts so much emotion behind his playing, especially near the end, because it's the last thing we see and hear

[localfox1000]

this song is sooo goood! i ust heard it first time today and ive already listened to it like 5 times in a row

[ansunnygirl]

omfgosh! i love this song and dashboard so freakin much! he is SO FREAKIN HOTTTTT!

[anie22x]

love this song and Dashboard Confessional they are really creative and original. So good, they make me feel the music!

[AlexGuitar85]

dont know what´s wrong with some of you guys. sure, sometimes his voice is kinda week when he sings live, and sure he seems to struggle a bit with his voice. but it sounds so bad ass, especially in the last chorus and theres so much emotion in it. its just amazing.

[POLOCHANNEL]

youtube.com/watch?v=OAm18NO59q­A

[EdgarLovesPaintball]

there is some massive passion and emotion in this video. Gives me the chills every time....

[nikkiprincess11]

(L)

[lbprock]

I really felt the passion

[leftpimphand]

He sounded like shit I agree wit the guy below me stop sucking on his dick other guy

[Ceetflash]

where is this taken from?? wow...

[ifuckbunny]

having concerts and etc..thats why hes voice in this vid was exhausted..

[inthegardenx]

wow bad vocals there.. good attempt though!

[AMAURIS966]

@inthegardenx you're no fuckin judge you piece of shit.

[inthegardenx]

@AMAURIS966 I Don't have to be a judge to know that this wasn't his best.

[aaronwestlakemusic]

@inthegardenx lol! you got owned

[AlessaNitara]

2:12 ... gosh!

[mariaviolette]

@AlessaNitara what's in 2: 12 ?

[AlessaNitara]

@mariaviolette it's more 2:13 i guess... but i love the look he has there.

[mariaviolette]

@AlessaNitara oh okay, i get it..haha! he is cute. :)

[brownboi67]

Honestly this isnt close to being the best performance, but the emotion n passion he shows is the stuff champs are made of. Thumbs up

[FlavoredDeath]

This...

Fucking...

Sucks.

[nOcU36]

@FlavoredDeath go fuck your self dude...

[FlavoredDeath]

@nOcU36

lmfao

He sound like a fucking squirell that died in a septic tank.

It's pretty terrible.

Studio version's way better.

Oh, and btw. I have no clue why you gotta be an immature asshole that has to resort to put downs.

My comment had nothing to do with you, in fact, I have no clue who you are.

Yet you have to tell me, a person you have nothing to do with, to go fuck myself.

Real mature, dude.

Grow up.

[EdgarLovesPaintball]

so much emotion. Sick fking song.

[kevinkrouglow]

I have been in love with this song for years! Finally decided to cover it, and my voice is finally strong enough to handle the whole song in the key it's in haha. Check out the cover on my page!! (:

[squishygaara]

ahh gave me chills at the end he is so passionate, simply amazing.

[HannahTheBrave]

he sounds better live.

I guess technically this is live

but live-live he is AMAZING

One of the greatest bands ever! <3

[HannahTheBrave]

@NeverShoutGabe stop spamming. if people like the band they'll get their music.

[blahhayden]

I know I comment this video more than a healthy american should, but I think its funny that the "acoustic" version is more energetic and passionate than the origonal. I mean when he goes all hulk-mode at the end, you can see the veins in his neck trying to explode! :O " I am FLAAAWWWWWEEEED!"

[cacae]

watch?v=wztgdG1IPVw

[lovetownsend]

2:57

nut pop

[TheMurry7]

@lovetownsend wwwoooooowwwwwwww lol

[AlexanderHvass]

I've seen nothing like it. Just amazing!

[blahhayden]

2:58 he allmost stood up. he was about to pull some kinda bad-assed acoustic stage dive.

[juhedas]

@blahhayden

nice sooooooooooooooooooooong

[blahhayden]

he gives such an energetic show, without even standing up from his stool. that to me is so amazing. I mean this video could work very well as a substitution for viagra if you catch my drift. :P

[metal4everish]

such a beutiful voice,im a guy and his singing made me cry

[fadetoinferno]

whoa whoa whoa....you don't need to yell..

[tunerguy95]

@fadetoinferno yes yes he does haha

[amaze0815]

I love this so much

[secretguythatscool]

clam down your going to pop lol

[khaymaan]

i saw them perform yesterday! :D

[nfldman1976]

not a huge fan but I have to give credit where credit is due. He don't lip sync, or use autotune. There is a lot to be said for that. I would rather listen to this than some fake shit like that useless bitch Kesha.

[nestomelesto]

@nfldman1976 you can't use autotune here anyway you dumbass.

[nfldman1976]

@nestomelesto go fuck yourself in the ass with a bat wrapped in barbed wire you fuckhead. Don't assume shit..one day you may get your head knocked off. I bet you you wouldn't say that to me face to face. But the sad thing is you can hide behind your keyboard and act the part.

[imthatrj]

@nfldman1976 You do realize instead of doing anything to counter his point, you just made yourself look blatantly retarded right?

[nfldman1976]

@imthatrj I don't need to counter shit..what he said has nothing to do with my comment...and you can also go fuck yourself.
