A SILENT FILM | You Will Leave a Mark | 2009

[ljays22]

No one plays it here. I love it, echoes my soul. Why does such good music just vanish, while we are instead inundated with Rihanna, Katy Perry etc, crap?

[GodofConquests]

@ljays22 It doesn't. Cause on every other video there are 5 people like you bitching about popular music.

[RemusMarkCarballo]

A Silent Film makes me want to form a band and make this type of music. Good stuff!

[MYNAMESTJCROWDER]

Best....vocal....timing....eve­r. These are just epic verses.

[jjusthe3ofus]

great song hope the band does more!!

[SzzoDDark]

inolvidableeeeeeeeee...

increibleeeee...

unika por xc-lencia.......

[DesAllen7]

Been playing it non stop for a couple years now. Still amazing! Anyone else realize Gavin Degraw's "not over you" ripped off the piano riff?!

[lukaszwojciech84]

good

[agogdata]

i can only study listening to this + pieces for the band red

[zebrakafa]

harbi güzel sarkı bu tuttum valla



[Verucarock]

Good song. The videoclip can be better.

[Sittingduck14]

Um, I don't know what you guys are talking about. The radio plays this song all the goddamn time.

[1RiskyRich]

12 people are jerks

[metalgear215]

very passionate song, reminds me of my life

[Lukebeelot86]

How have I only just discovered this band? I've missed out on 2 years of great music. Time to catch up...

[Paddy317]

Love.

[revolver0916]

those kids are friggin annoying

[Grayskullvc]

What happened to the original super dark video of the 7 deadly sins?

[hybridkoala]

Found this song thanks to iTunes' free singles of the week a while back, and I deleted it because of one line in the song that I didn't like the words to. But last year I had the piano stuck in my head and I liked it so much that I went through a list of singles of the week (it literally took me hours because I forgot the name and artist) and thankfully, I found it again because it's one of my favorite songs...sigh

[lukaszwojciech84]

great

[GuyJackson1977]

Can't get this damn song out of my head. I'm convinced I don't like it that much but it got stuck in my brain a week ago and it won't get the fuck out. Damn it.

[099fred]

@GuyJackson1977 I wouldn't be complaining if I was you! Give me a proper song like this any day, over the rubbish that's being played on the radio.

[ftwhavingpinkberry]

<3

[SupaflyIRL]

You're all idiots, the lyrics are "IF I am fair skinned DO I deserve a bullet in my chest" (source: live videos)

[artisstje]

Soundtrack of the iOS Game "First Touch Soccer" send me here!! :D

[GuyJackson1977]

@artisstje

Ditto.

[Florcita8]

"i am of the west

i am fair skinned

i deserve a bullet in my chest

if i have no religion i have no reason to be scared

if I am going to hell then i just dont care"

i love this

[yodummy]

@Florcita8 Why would you love this? Fair skinned and deserves a bullet? What, are you feeling bad about all the injustices that the white man has caused? Fuck that. I'm proud to be white, and don't think for a second these parasites wouldn't jump at the chance to be Anglo Saxon as well. Bleeding heart fucking liberal retards abandoning their own race. Get some pride, we are not the problem.

[Florcita8]

@yodummy the fact that i love this part doesn't necessarily mean that i agree with its supposed meaning. i love the way it's built up,the way it rhymes,i love the dark feelings it creates in my mind. maybe the songwriter means what you think,but i don't mind,he has an opinion,writes a song about it,so what? i'd rather take it as one person's thoughts about something the size of a dot in the world than as a global statement. anyway i don't consider race as something to be proud of,like a quality.

[Ilanactingreel]

@yodummy

i agree with you that liberals are insane but I think you might have jumped the gun a bit on your statement :)

[Xassta08]

someone left a mark on a silent film. xP

[JacobMichaelNewton]

Alex...you definitely left a mark. ;)

[YungReggieBush]

THUMBS UP IF OMGPOP GOT YOU HERE!

[javery92]

Here's some true talent. Zero autotune. Awesome.

[lukaszwojciech84]

great song

[jamaiquino876]

makes me sad...kinda

[MaggieLuvsYourButt]

once i heard this on the radio, i had to find it on youtube

[nikkipooSnAK]

I love this song soo much. :)

[richiebucs]

Love these guys kinda got a sound like the Strokes

[trimbot6]

These guys are good!

[toboein]

Can anyone tell me what those little creatures in the beginning say? They crack me up, I swear I had the same suit when I was 8.

[k1john89]

i miss europe ......

[lukaszwojciech84]

great song

[arrington77]

I'm going to leave a mark on 10 people!

[TheMajorHawke]

I'm gonna admit this is pretty boring. It sounds like every other alternative rock band of the 2000s. To me, it seems like everyones just copying and pasting one 1990's song, and orienting it. All death metal sounds the same too.

[SkaterRebellion]

@TheMajorHawke and bubble gum rap, and pop, and electronic, and country, but there's something about this band that is different for me.

[TheMajorHawke]

@SkaterRebellion

hmmm.....Well there name is surely different.

[SuperCalvinScott]

@TheMajorHawke So what is original right now?

[javery92]

@TheMajorHawke As well as all pop music. Sounds to me like everything is a copy then.

[LefteesAssassin]

not enough ppl know about this band

[mock15halo]

@LefteesAssassin i prefer it that way. I feel unique when nobody around me knows it. when others tend to know it, it seems to be way overplayed and i get sick of the song

[deafrockstars]

@LefteesAssassin really? i heard this song on the radio...

[duce712]

saw them recently in Philadelphia, they were awesome. The new album is going to be nice. Im glad i found this band.

[arrington77]

10 people suck at life.

[fofox21]

RJ BERGER

[incheonlazerhead]

This is a great song. It gets better exposure in the US than it does in England, I lived there for 3 years, never heard of them, suddenly I come to the US and I find out about them...typical.

[LefteesAssassin]

the second awsumest thing about this song it the like/dislike ratio

[jroc924]

I literally was in a fit of rage for days trying find the name of this song and artist. Looks like i found a new drug.

[machinp]

perrotes!!



[machinp]

perrotes!!



[SAIL4323]

I heard this song on Alt Nation this morning! Thank you so much!

[larrypoland]

I must disagree...I saw them in Philly and they were GREAT!!!!

[TheWhoRocksHardcore]

Saw these guys live, me and my friends were really dissapointed after the show. Thought they would be better :( Don't get me wrong, they are great musicians and songwriters but they lacked showmanship, and didnt sound very good live. Felt Stale

[WarpedFiction]

@TheWhoRocksHardcore

clearly you havent heard good music. i heard them when they opened for civil twilight in ATL and they were uber beast.

[radioonthetv1]

this band quite possably has the most upside of any alternative band i can think of all they need to do is keep making good albums

[RainbowPorcelain]

eska rock <3

[alfred0vega]

Great lyrics 

[merikijiya]

this band reminds me of local natives

[merikijiya]

qreat sonq

[cooool66]

I took me forever to find this song!!! Love it sooo much.

[evagelionneonpx]

This band is just amazing...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[chelsienb]

One of the best songs I've heard in a while! I think I've found a great band :)

[MrMaxlion123]

i likeeeee this song

[NickWishesHeWasCool]

you know, I generally don't like the whole indie rock type music thing, but this song is really catchy :)

[SolXSlayer]

The piano really sets the mood for the rest of the song.

[akiratrooper]

add &vintage=1911 to the url

[Smithj312612]

this works so great with that 1911 option on the player.

[nich7222]

@Smithj312612 what is that?

[cdp9m]

fabulous show with civil twilight.

[peterfarrow]

la lal lalal lalal ala DULL

[biteythealligator]

I'm buyin it!

[AleAngel038]

Where has alternative rock been all my life, and why didn't anyone tell me about A Silent Film? I would love suggestions for songs...Not trying to be a bandwagonner, Just...wow. That's all :)

[Lifeis]

They remind me of the Editors

[TheGlenn15]

Fucking Love the beginning!! <3

[MyruhOh]

This song makes everything better. 

[TheGlenn15]

Remember when you go to your youtube page and there wasn't an advertisement at the top of the page?

Remember when music videos were uploaded by users and not VEVO

Remember when there wasn't advertisements that never go away?

Remember you couldn't have a limit to favorites?

Remeber the famous yellow subscribe button?

WE MISS THE OLD YOUTUBE!

Post this in every video and lets start a youtube riot!

[mikei4455]

[aedpdx1974]

Love this Band <3

[isthisforreal04]

This song is absolutely amazing.. the first time I heard it I couldn't stop listening to it... the piano is so beautiful it almost makes me cry

[vandalow21]

@isthisforreal04 F$%#ng truth

[rockeryears]

I am forever in your debt AltNation for introducing me to ASF... :)

[SAIL4323]

@rockeryears

Alt Nation is the best. Without them, I would not have known of this song, either.

[GalakseesMinecrafts]

It is unfortunate that this is the only good song on the album.

[jaydenissuperbad]

i just won this album on the radio and it feels more like I lost.

[Rocking8043]

AWESOME!!!!



[Rocking8043]

AWESOME!!!!

[stubert311]

such good counterpoint in this. reminds me of rosalita by springsteen or fire eyed boy by broken social scene

[WhoWhatWhenWhereZzZz]

I CANT STOP REPLAYING THIS SONG!!!WHHYY???

[goldeye18]

@clemenaid - the only thing i play is your mom

[purplelemonpeel]

lovelovelove :)

[12LiveandLetDie12]

This isnt silent. FUCK IT.

[underoathprophet]

I'm obsessed with this song.

[Daghead]

@underoathprophet I don't even listen to rock, but this is one of my all-time favorites. Sums up my life.

If I have no religion I have no reason to be scared. If I am going to hell then I just don't care.

My heart is bursting again...

I am so ashamed of all these unopened doors.

[GothicTrioOfEdwards]

THUMBS UP IF YOU ARE FAIR SKINNED

[bleedinggoths]

haha he was giving the hermetic hand gesture

[lbisurfsailor]

awesome

[thefish88]

I am so ashamed... I am so ashamed of all the trouble I have caused ... and I am so ashamed of all these unopened doors ... I am so ashamed of what I have become. --- [Chorus] *That oh, my heart is bursting again *Don't leave this mark *Your eyes are turning away *Ooooooohh, aaaaaaaahh. --- I am of the west

I am fair skinned ... I deserve a bullet in my chest ... If I have no religion I have no reason to be scared ... If I am going to hell then I just dont care ... [Chorus 2x] -

[happyguycol]

@thefish88 its okay, we can all hear the song, you don't have to write the lyrics.

[trev050175]

5 people disliked the fact that the kid says fuck at the start pmsl!

[evagelionneonpx]

ii listened this song in a local radio !whn started 2 listen it i inmediately fell in love whit it !

it reminds me the 80's !!WHATEVER i like this song

[ohsnapittaylor12]

i love the piano and guitar and just the melody of this song its great also the lyrics are very relatable lol ..good song

[drkrbt11]

[jdreed68]

[DrKelo13]

[mrnlfc]

[Polishpunkass30]

[ricardinho101]

@Polishpunkass30 FLA?

[Polishpunkass30]

@ricardinho101 florida lols...

[Caesar1312]

Piss poor....Keane sucked and this sucks bigger balls than they did...posturing superficial, uninteresting, trite....next

[ricardinho101]

@Caesar1312 it appeals to me, it's not superficial when it can reach ur insides, the content only matters to a certain point, the reaction that u have to the song is what matters most

[willsowner1999]

It can't be a silent film with sound.

[su09ism]

It just rocks)!!!!.

[BraceForSilence]

im ashamed....>listen to song<

[ZachowStarshine]

I think this is one of their songs that has the most meaning to me <3

[edwarddelplaneta]

I really hope this is the song of the year in Peru. Thanks Double nine FM

[superEmazing]

Roughly

[lukaszwojciech84]

[mrobinson96]

[xxStephZombieexx]

Just seen these guys a few days ago at Buzz Bake Sale. :)

[Emzboomi]

4 people thought this was a silent film so they had their volume on mute.

[3eblink]

@Emzboomi faggot lol, learn to think of something on your own and not comment a video like everyone else to try and be funny but fail

[3eblink]

@Emzboomi fag

[isthisforreal04]

@3eblink lol, I think someone is jealous

[DrJohnsonMD]

@3eblink I agree. I hate when people make comments like that. "209 people missed the like button XD" -_-

[sweetkyprincess]

This song is AWEOSOME! I am so glad my brother listens to altnation, or I would never had heard it! YAY for satellite radio!!!!!

[Cristilikn]

@sweetkyprincess Awesome!!! I knew that song from altnation too! i was waiting for some song of MUSE to appear but then i just start writing the songs that i liked..... now i can't stop hearing the song!!!!!!!

[sweetkyprincess]

@Cristilikn cool. yea this song is pretty rad!!!! altnation is where I found Muse too! I heard undisclosed desires and instantly loved it. It wasn't long after that I bought the cd.

[TenaciTyze]

I love this song

[distortedveins]

I'm more of a punk rock kind of person. I listen to the Clash, Against Me, Green Day, Sex Pistols, ect. Pretty much any and all of it. I do really enjoy this lighter rock though, not too loud but it sounds great.

[bodyelectronic]

love it! can not turn it off for the third day! listening repeatedly ))

[iforgotaboutit]

PsyStarcraft.

[heff2292]

got this song off of itunes single of the week like a year ago, and heard it on alt nation on my way to school yesterday. made my day (:

[mesupaf1y]

Just heard an acoustic version of this on alt nation that blew me frickin away.

[iammike34]

ALT NATION IS THE BEST !!!

[RawbThatPunk]

if Ben Folds played for The Killers :)

[goldeye18]

@RawbThatPunk - your giving the Killers WAY WAY WAY too much credit. One hit wonders who whine and sound like little bitches. Ben Folds wouldnt wipe his ass with a Killers CD booklet

[clemenaid]

@goldeye18 the killers are not one hit wonders, ben folds five had like two good songs. idk why youd take away from a band that you couldnt even hold there jock straps. meaning you cant play like them.

[NESherv]

@RawbThatPunk Funny you say that. At first when I heard these guys, I thought it was The Killers (except for the vocals, obviously). This track reminds me of The Killers' cover of "Four Winds."

[emo77423]

@RawbThatPunk i love the killers high five from faraway(:

[nonplus86]

alt nation rocks, I miss it. Gotta get my XM subscription back!

[surfz247]

Great Fucking Song.

--kenny from Swirl 360

[bleedinggoths]

This is gonna be the next biggest song on the radio soon. I can't believe this doesn't have close to a million views, cuz it def should! I love this song a lot now. Im hooked. And this is coming from an extreme metalhead! \m/ Do they play these guys on the radio at all???

[MSSL06]

@bleedinggoths yeah iheard them this morning on 104.5 east coast nj

[Flygrl48]

@MSSL06 I too am from the east coast, right outside Philly, and 104.5 is my FAV station on the radio (since I dont have Satellite) haha.

[MSSL06]

@Flygrl48 yeah they play the best things ever. i turned it on tuesday morning for the first time and this song was playing, then nirvana played, then weezer played, then pearl jam played, and then later on in the day they played nirvana again, sublime, and the killers. i was bugging out because i never hear my favorite music on the radio.

[xFreakOnAL3ashx]

@MSSL06 ahhh 104.5 is the greatest station ever. do you listen to under the covers every weekday at 7:40 AM?

[JLynn943]

@xFreakOnAL3ashx I do. Love that station so much. If the rest of radio went off air, I wouldn't care, but 104.5 is just awesome

[MSSL06]

@xFreakOnAL3ashx i cant, thats the time school starts for me. i would though.

[westindixie]

@Flygrl48 Me too! Love radio1045! I got to meet airborne toxic event through them. I was sad, I moved back from the west coast after a couple years only too find that the nixed y100, but then I found this station. Its awesome.

[philritter21]

Ahhh I love alt nation. Too bad all my friends like ass rock. PUDDLE OF MUDD FUCK YEAH. Lame.

[duce712]

Its amazing how a song can completely capture a moment in your life and sing your heartbreak for everyone to hear. I've been marked.

[Carapau2681]

You will leave a mark! ♥

[inc0pt]

4 people will not leave a mark

[lt2tanks]

Yeah for sure Jooster, great song, thanks Altnation

[mothersday123]

The sorta' songs I can personally relate to are my favorite. I Can listen to this continuously, at hours on end.

[letto666ful]

zajebista nuta!!!

[sakigirl87]

I am in love with this song...

[rockeryears]

So great that altnation plays this a lot! It's amazing! They definitely need more popularity!

[shannoninkc]

@joostertag....:) me too, just heard it on altnation myself...love it!

[RollTideFootball]

Gah gotta love Altnation....i can't believe the way people are these days this video only has 185,226 views why Lady Gaga has a literally a billion views.....what is the world coming too. This one song could blow all hers and Justin Biebers out of the water.
