[terratec365]

Wibble990 'nicked' your video - watch?v=EWhUZ4I91kw.

@song Superb. One of my favourites EVER. Thumbs Up!

[BigMert]

they came to my uni yesterday, and i played this song with the drummer and keyboard. i played bass

[iTziNiQuiTyx]

Music is good, but vocals and lyrics are terrible.

[yashodhaan]

@iTziNiQuiTyx  dude vocals and lyrics constitute music...

[Brightred11]

Great song, but that guy has one of the worst voices of anyone that has ever cut an album. It was crap when they started and it has got not one iota better.

[united4detreble]

ive waited given the chance again id do it all again...the quote 4 many peoples life

[taroninda]

I love this band. However I don't feel the performance is as good as the record.

[VetleTVH]

The lead singer has a nice voice, but listen to the guitarist! Imagine this song with him singing lead vocal. :)

[odonna17]

I think the singer sounds great on record but is never as good live -I have heard him-donna

[ascent7]

brilliant bad but does he have ian brown singing live syndrom???

[ashbash986]

this song sounds better once you get over its associations with match of the day.

[RussellBoyce]

Aderham6, theres about as much raw-ness with Embrace as there is fucking Cliff Richard.

Diddles75, are you IN Embrace?! Easy tiger, seem to have hurt your feelings! All i say is as they get older with their jobs in tescos or wherever it is they are back to now (they had to get dayjobs b4) I am sure they may reflect and say "y'know what, we could mibbe be still doing that if we hadnt been such dour, boring bastards"

Thanks for the memories boys. As i said last time - some top tunes they had.

[tariqsayed]

this song gets me in the mood for football, dunno why :s

[hiefw]

song came out in Fifa 06 prolly reminds you of football, but than again who know every little thing always finds a way to remind me of football lol so idk

[ruudleenders]

@tariqsayed it was used in Fifa :D

[tariqsayed]

@ruudleenders lol yeah that's most likely the reason :)

[NoChrisOnlyZuul]

@tariqsayed It was on FIFA 06, memorieS?

[tariqsayed]

@NoChrisOnlyZuul Yeah I remember lol, great memories :D

[mrkd2k10]

@tariqsayed fifa 06???

[tariqsayed]

@mrkd2k10 Yeah that why lol

[daniel0164]

@tariqsayed I hear this song off a Fifa game on playstation is that the reason?

[ItsTouchAndGo]

or is there just a delay?

[doogleisfat]

There's just a small amount of delay applied to danny's vocals.

[ItsTouchAndGo]

are they lypsyncing?

[ItsTouchAndGo]

love it!

[REDRELIGION92]

This song is great i first heard it in Fifa 06 from then i have it on my mobile for ringtone...Apla ta spaei(that is greek expression for great)

[GraceUnderPressure1]

Brilliant band, brilliant song but was not the best performance unfortunately :( quite difficult to listen to it

[bhoomika70]

goood song and relaxing

[crunchysticks]

they need to bring out some new songs i went to see these with my sis cause i was only young at the carling acadamy sumwhere

[bassmantrigga]

"Gr8 songs on record, but that guy has as much personality as a dead fish."

thats fuckin genius. i like embrace but nowhere near as good live

[cicciosnooker]

Great song!!!!

[RoOoGena]

omg i adore this band they are amazing amazing amazing and i love danny so much thanx for this video :)

[RussellBoyce]

i've just watched a few videos of embrace live - they are pish! Gr8 songs on record, but that guy has as much personality as a dead fish. His voice seems to contradict the momentum in any of their tunes and he has no presence whatsoever I remember watching them at titp and thinking maybe he was having an off day but god it turns out he's been woeful for years! Most songs you hear live are way better than the record but i think its safe to say they are the opposite! still have some top tunes tho

[Diddles75]

Come on Boyce, what shite do you class as being great live? Embrace will not be bothered by detractors like youself. How many times have you seen them live? I've seen them 5 times and will see them again when they decide to return. Who have you seen live?

[aderham6]

Shut up mate. Every member is a top class musician. Danny is just singing in a lower key to the recorded version. That doesnt make him any worse, live music is about raw uncut performances otherwise why would they bother. They are easily the best band of their type; Coldplay and Snow Patrol are nowhere near.

[bobskindoodle]

Well said.

[garrethdavis]

@aderham6 you know Chris Martin wrote this song right?

[runandrewrun]

@garrethdavis Really? I'm not so sure he did. Martin wrote Gravity but I wasn't aware he wrote this one.

[ycazfeistr]

@garrethdavis No he didn't mate, ypu must be thinking about Gravity Martin wrote that one.

[garrethdavis]

@ycazfeistr nope, i'm afraid he did write this!

[ycazfeistr]

@garrethdavis You're wrong sorry. I have the album which this song is on ('Out of Nothing') at home, and it says on the sleeve that Danny and Richard McNamara wrote it, and I doubt the info on the actual album is wrong!!

[garrethdavis]

@ycazfeistr hah well look it up on here an you'll find something different! it's just like ryan tedder giving beyonce halo and leona lewis bleeding love. it's still accredited to them on the album sleeve. i guess so it doesn't look like they stole their song haha!

[gicker13]

this performance turned me onto embrace

[facundopetit]

fantastic moment at 2:50

not very good performance though

[whoshotlassie]

brilliant

[bobskindoodle]

Good moment at 2:50!
