City and Colour - Casey's Song (with lyrics)

[Cracka69Man]

I YouTube searched 'City and Colour happy upbeat song' ... this is the song that first came up... haha

[bree3386]

Casey is the guy who wrote the lyrics to this song. Dallas wrote the music to it. Casey used to be in a band called sleeper set sail. Him and Dallas are friends.

Only know this because he's from my hometown and I've heard the story too many times.

That's why it's called "casey's song" because Casey wrote it.

[milchudyx]

the awkward moment when your name is casey...

[icpman15]

Dude.... This music...

[9shroom7]

made an account just to like this video! :D

[Juviabee]

HWM -3

[ndewhurst12]

I don't know who Casey is, but clearly she is a bitch. 

[btblou]

Ones heart is always going to suffer some damage when placed in an others hands. Humans can barely care for their own emotional well being, net alone an others. It's cruel really, passing that responsibility on.

[cracker223]

How bout the awkward moment when you hear this song, and then realize that it's called Casey's song....

[iSeePierceTheVeil]

For those that dislike this, I sense the relation. The 'dislike' button is the same size as your penis. Don't hate.

[cilitbang12]

@iSeePierceTheVeil i imagine most of the people that dislike this are just heartbroken and cant listen to such a beautiful song again just saying

plus dallasgreen has a beautiful voice

[cwaffles13]

That awkward moment when your name is Casey.

[fritz300]

all these comments.... who's life HASN'T he changed?

[StateOfErin]

@fritz300 Mine. Don't get me wrong, he's brilliant, just not life-changing. (:

[greyfots]

this guy has changed my life in so many ways,

when i was defeated i rested while in the downed,

i thought i wouldn't be able to get up from this rest but i got so identified with his music with his songs i got up and understood that he did it once!,

i could do it even twice!!!,

i freaking love all of his songs

and with his last CD its as if he could tap in to everyones life and take bits and pieces and place them in to songs!

[mrnicevil]

Attention Mr. Green. I knew her was her friend. Would drop off muffins and fruit to her.I was trying to help assimilate her into the immediate surroundings. That didn't work. The eschellon had a better I D Ah uh? Idiots. Casey I'm the one who cared for you and now the world misses your hard earndred soul. You Are sorrily missed, oh and I have been watching for those who will bring me harm, and thank you for the tip.

[7Casey69Lee7]

[AnchorThyself]

[yoitzxtf]

[kaley699]

[Bubblesbitch669]

I'm super mad that this song is so short<3

[xDaniissaurr]

Hot Water Music ftw!! XD

I love this song-- my girlfriend's name is Casey. Obviously it reminds me of her...

[UROXZMYSOXZ]

WOW. I loved him, but then I saw the title of this song and said "Ohmygod" breathless...because, MY NAME IS CASEY!! :) Happy happy joy joy!

[ButaChicken]

what is he saying at 2:42 and onwards?

[Kelter2]

Ugh I want to cut his arms off and trade I want his sleeves!

[bjp326]

@Kelter2 I know. I never even thought about getting anything until I saw his sleeves.

[Kelter2]

@bjp326 I have a sleeve but not as sweet as his

[Cathifonly]

Just listened to this song 53 times in a row. It doesn't get any less magic.

[Cathifonly]

This is so fucking beautiful I want to scream.

[nvrndngwhitelights]

can't wait to see him this summer, finally =)

[mandan95]

as soon as i find out 'city and colour' is becaus his name is Dallas Green it ruined it for me :/

[HannnahBalector]

@mandan95 Then your a complete faggot

[mandan95]

as soon as i find out 'city and colour' is becaust his name is Dallas Green it ruined it for me :/

[SJ404K]

[emarosalover]

This song sums up my life right now.

[LizzAnneRawr]

[KarlyNintendoHero]

I want to marry him.

[crackerjacksfairy]

There are six freaks in the world. JUST SAYIN'.

This song is just beautiful...

[bouncybecky16]

dallas green is a genius.

[Nikarta12]

@thomasfonville Yes , except Mr.Green is Canadian , so therefor it should be spelled that way .

[teaspewn]

colour.. you know the canadian way. eh? ;)

[OoMZoO]

never realized that the lyrics are that short o.O

[ZBRUNETTI]

@OoMZoO That's TOTALLY what I just thought! haha

[lockhart6]

The 4 dislikes are dating people named Casey

[momma3CSB]

my bf's name is casey, so this was cool to find!!!

[dillygurl]

4 people don't know emotion.

[TheChronicFailure]

0bselete. either way, no one is shoving the bible down your throat except maybe your parents. even if you think you're right, no one cares. i dont go around trying to proove to everyone that god exists, i just believe he does.

[lakensofa]

simple, yet so heart felt<3

[Myveryowntreasures]

Agreed,Science is logical,religion is faith,who gives a fuck?Stop pushing ur illuminati created bullshit on people.

[bringstephaniethe7X]

@OpTic123100 @x0bsolete guys, no offence, but shut it. You either believe in God, or you don't, and you two just happen to have different views on that. Just listen to the god damn song and take your argument somewhere else.

[AdamSiren]

@bringstephaniethe7X YOU ARE THE BEST!!!

[xHoldMeTillIDiex]

He's hot. <3

[Fishilisation]

This guy changed my life, seriously

[maestroandmagi]

@Fishilisation jesus changed mine.

[x0bsolete]

@maestroandmagi Too bad Dallas Green is a real person and Jesus isn't.

[OpTic123100]

@x0bsolete wow atheist? he can think what he wants and i agree with him

[x0bsolete]

@OpTic123100 Well, you're just as stupid as him.

[OpTic123100]

@x0bsolete you can say what you want but hell doesn't sound like a good place

[x0bsolete]

@OpTic123100 It isn't a real place. -_-

Why be scared of it?

[OpTic123100]

@x0bsolete do you even think heaven is a real place?

[x0bsolete]

@OpTic123100 No...

[OpTic123100]

@x0bsolete wow. so you think were just gonna rot when we die for eternity? god is great AND REAL and heaven is definatly a real place. also great

[x0bsolete]

@OpTic123100 How do you know?

[OpTic123100]

@x0bsolete think of it this way, how did living things come onto the earth in the first place?

[x0bsolete]

@OpTic123100 All can be explained by tested science theories.

[OpTic123100]

@x0bsolete all can be explained by the bible also

[x0bsolete]

@OpTic123100 Not really, none of the ideas within the bible can be tested or hold any scientific ground.

[stone4peace]

@x0bsolete yo- nothing in the bible can be disproved by science. everything in science that tries to disprove it, is only a theory; therefore not scientifically proven itself. most of the bible can in fact be proved by science.

just a fact, buddy.

[x0bsolete]

@stone4peace Show me one test done on the reality of a deity.

[xxgrritisbrandonxx]

@OpTic123100 You ever heard of the "Big Bang Theory"?

[devel715]

@Fishilisation i know the feeling

[lrigydruh]

@Fishilisation I just got into him like tonight! I think hes about to change mine too : )

[Australian22]

why is this called caseys song is there a reason for the title?

[caseyliveknight]

@Australian22 YES! so i can have a song for myself hahah

[DNCFilms]

@Australian22 i think there was a band member named casey who passed away and he dedicated this song to him. or so i recall hearing

[rionline666]

monster scene kid?

[painkillerliz019]

this is beautiful.<3

[xRottenCorpsex]

COLOUR BRO

[NikiShady]

@xRottenCorpsex Cool story, bro!

[xRottenCorpsex]

@NikiShady

thanks bro!

[PurpleMonkeyDishSoap]

@xRottenCorpsex  - He's Canadian! ... (born September 29, 1980 St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada) That's why it's spelled COLOR

[XXDemonXSlayer13XX]

@PurpleMonkeyDishSoap We spell it "colour" though in Ontario, just like we spell "favourite" with a "u" also.

[iloveyutimesinfinity]

@XXDemonXSlayer13XX in Ontario? Try all of Canada. Not to mention the entire UK I believe. :P

[blink0r]

@PurpleMonkeyDishSoap It's COLOUR you idiot. That's how us Canadian's spell it.

[thomasfonville]

@blink0r Pretty sure other people besides Canadian's spell it that way. Dumby.

[redhot654]

magic (:

[ckirish42]

hey is super sexy... :) nom nom nom

[bana2501]

Youtube messed something up here, Theres a dislike button

[lenne204]

No i'm sorry, it's a electric violin. knew that :S

[lenne204]

THIS is the music!!!!

[SuBLiMeEpiiKz]

4 people were broken.

[chiroguydc]

@SuBLiMeEpiiKz 4 people need to be punched.

[xxbl00dyvengenc]

@chiroguydc

Wow, finally a "however many people dislike this vid" thing that is actually funny. Lol thumb for you.

[pawlinQa]

4 people must like shit music like Lady Gaga and Kesha..

[kathrynnTW]

this song is named after and was written for my cousin Casey Baker! so proud of him being such good friends with and being able to work with Dallas :')

[kasekase1895]

i know this might sound random since all these comments are on how his name has to do with his title...... BUT i would like to say that it is amazing how he could make such an awesome song with such little lyrics and have it mean so much:)

[kasekase1895]

i know this might sound random since all these comments are on how his name has to do with his title...... BUT i would like to say that it is amazing how he could make such an awesome song with such little lyrics:)

[xXtotesmagotes69Xx]

its city and COLOUR! haha such noobs

you spelt colour wrong

[Whamesl0l]

@xXtotesmagotes69Xx they're american titwad, color and colour are both correct, just that america tends to spell stuff without 'u's like "honor, color, favor"

[nansta126]

@xXtotesmagotes69Xx

Its american and britain english u twat.

[justjoshenaround]

@xThunderThumbsx I'm Canadian.. And I like most Americans.. But.. It is true about how you guys start most of the fights over youtube :/ But MOST of the time.. Sometimes its those stupid Brits... -_-

[Ryank1908]

@justjoshenaround Yes. Most American's start youtube fights, but MOST of the time, it's us stupid Brits.

And sweeping generalisations about any country are just hurtful. If I were to judge Canada against my instinct that it's a lovely place with wonderful people and instead use a youtube comment from a Canadian, such as yourself, for example, I'd be liable to think it's full of stupid people. I have more sense than that, thankfully.

[justjoshenaround]

@Ryank1908 Thanks, Canada is exactly that. I myself would like to visit Britain one day and go see a game of football. Britain seems sweet.

[redhot654]

@justjoshenaround

Haha. I think Britain is worse than Canada in that respect to be honest. People have to grow up too fast there, too.

[OhLookItsJosh]

@xThunderThumbsx huh? I don't get it...oh well, glad I'm not American. n__n

[MikeXOfXTheXDead]

i would give anything to sing and play like this guy.

[cityplay04]

this is exactly how i feel about i girl i like,

its like he's reading my mind when he sings thiss

its unreall

[chelseaellen94]

Casey's so lucky .. 

[meagsrss]

My favorite song Ever! Got me through some tough times! Thank you Dallas Green :)

[MelodieKitKat]

Such few words..yet such deep meaning. Thats called TALENT :)

[happenend4you]

I love you. <3

[onlyhuman3]

[nizzyxo]

[SwirlyWhirlyMovies]

DALLAS= CITY

GREEN= COLOUR

MIND= BLOWN

[ladivinapunk]

@SwirlyWhirlyMovies thats some trippy shit man.. lol



[IfTheBannersFall]

@xThunderThumbsx Believe it or not, that's a violin, I think.

[IfTheBannersFall]

@IfTheBannersFall LOL, After turning up the volume I hear what part you're referring to, my bad. Wish I knew what it was too, it is good.

[lenne204]

@IfTheBannersFall I think it's a chello, or a alto violin. he uses it from 1:09 also.

[milkmoustach]

@xThunderThumbsx Yea! I just noticed after I read your comment, maybe google it??

[r3s3t063]

hot water music shirt for the win!

[hatti369]

[givebloodgive]

[Onloverslips]

I have listened to this song over and over again for days lol. Definitely a 5/5

[KylieIshBeast]

Every one of these songs seem to touch me emotionally. They are all made with such art, passion and emotion. I adore this man. Dallas Green, you're amazing. :]

[timedxdeath]

Is this by any chance about Casey Calvert?

Or is that a long show with no connection?

[Attila2452126]
