  • the clouds move in the wrong direction.

  • yes both are good but brand new is the best =D

  • Brand New is hands down one of the best bands formed. Straylight's not half bad either

  • you can't be serious

  • And Death Cab For Cutie.

  • Yeah i can listen to straylight and tbs for a while but Brand New always sounds good and even if i dont like a song to begin with it always grows on me like their new album i didn't like at first but now i cant put it down

  • agreed

  • Straylight and Taking back sunday kick ass, but no band compares to Brand New, not even close

  • AMEN. brand new is godly

  • I definitely agree!!!!!!!! Favorite band ever. I've listened to them since YFW and even though they've gotten all weird, I still love them. haha.

  • For some reason I cant get into Brand New :/

    It always always takes me aaages.

  • this label can kiss my ass for dropping straylight

  • Ahhh.... This video is awesomeness! Love that Michelle is in this one. What happened to her and her lovliness?

  • she is in a new project called Destry

  • trodgers your an idiot. taking back sunday is a lost cause. their new album's a joke. at least jon is getting something done. you didn't even spell his name right. besides, you probably don't even realize that shaun cooper would be left behind. when a band goes through 4 guitarists in less than 10 years you know something's wrong. straylight is where it's at.

  • Which one is Jon? I'm not very good with remembering band members.

  • guitarist

  • ahh. thanks man

  • first of all, you make no sense. John Nolan is spelled JOHN nolan. Secondly, shaun and john were both in tbs, they claimed to have left because they weren't feeling the music. However you are right about tbs having four guitarists but dude there new album kicks so much ass its not even funny. Straylight is awesome but so is tbs at least there new stuff

  • who knows what went down man. and yeah i did spell it wrong, im stupid. but dude. straylight is awesome. i've actually seen straylight, brand new, and tbs all in houston dude they are all great. but when i saw them fred was still there.

  • yeah ive seen them all too, i actually saw straylight most recently on there tour with good old war, i also saw tbs a few weeks before that, they are all amazing. brand new blows everything out of the waterr

  • The reason they left was the same reason Jesse Lacey left TBS, rumor was Nolan stole Jesse's girlfriend, which is the basis of the song seventy times 7. At least, that's what the information I got said.

  • yeah thats right, but nolan left was cause adam cheated on michelle, johns sister...ex guitarist of straylight

  • It was adam, not john, jesse was dating johns sister, she cheated on him with adam, The leaked album by brand new "Fight of your demons" The first song "Demo 1 (Good man)" is about her, also the song by Taking back sunday "theres no 'i' in team" is a response to "seventy times 7"

  • You cant even spell john right. Another pretentious hipster troll who thinks they know everything. Taking Back Sunday is an amazing band. Straylight Run is brilliant too. You may be entitled to your opinion, but there is no need to be an ass hole about it.

  • put aside your differences and go back to taking back sunday john!! they need you like the good ol days

  • hey was the singer from taking back sunday? his voice sounds so familar. lol.

  • John needs to shave his beard. Like seriously what the fuck?

  • i miss michelle too!

  • Am I the only one who thinks Straylight just keeps going downhill since the existentialism days ?

  • Clever video. I really like it :]

  • I just got introduced to this song and I'm already in love!

  • This is amazing. How does this have so few views?

  • aww i miss michelle and i never got to see them play together live

  • awesome awesome awesome

    i miss michelle

  • I LIKE THIS SONG SO MUCH

  • Michelle is beautiful and has an amazing voice! I really like her in Hands in the Sky (Big Shot)

  • AMAZZZZZINGGGGGGGG

  • i like this band but i still think john nolan sounded amazing with taking back sunday

    i <3 taking bac sunday

  • Michelle Nolan is the most beautiful thing in the world. Like, I want to marry her and have little musical babies with her.

  • man, she is beutiful, and have you seen lacey from Flyleaf?? shes very pretty to!!

  • trust me bro she looks diff live.

  • uyeaa too bad shes marriedl ol

  • pretty bad ass music video

    although i wish they would make one for sympathy for the martyr

    :'[

  • Awesome lyrics. Reminds me of The Glass Plastiks.

  • Who is the girl who sings with Jon Nolan?

  • i think her name is michelle nolan.

  • Michelle DaRosa now. She married John DaRosa from Dropkick Murphys and she left the band (temporarily? I hope so) to pursue a solo career. She's in a new band with the bassist from this band and the guitarist from the Format.

  • EVeryone always has a million projects in indie type music, I've noticed.

  • haha ya every body that leaves Taking Back Sunday gets a awesome band later on lol Jesse Lacey has Brand New John Nolan has Straylight Run and now Fred idk how to spell his last name lol has the Color Fred so they all got it pretty good but i still think TBS is WAY better than the rest
  • Everone that that leaves TBS gets an awsome band later??? seriussly it's like TBS is a magic band and when you go down your own path you leave and make a good band.....Damn TBS is awsome

  • I agree.

    :)

  • Saw them yesterday,

    AWESOME

  • Personally I sorta like Straylight Run, but after watching the video of Great Romances of the 20th Century I just see wasted potential of what could have been. Although the guy who replaced him wasn't bad either.

  • him and jesse lacey sound so similar it's not even funny.

  • not really but they somewhat look alike.

  • yeah i think they look and sound alike, but theyre both awesome, if adam lazzara, jesse lacey, and john nolan were in the same band, it'd be the shizzz.

  • YES! but you gotta throw Kevin Devine in there.

  • except just john and jesse cause the rest suck

  • love the song, and Michelle nolan is extremly hot

  • loved them live! don't give up.

  • What the hell happened to theese guys...

  • Will everyone please stop trying to state their opinions as fact? It's getting exhausting.

  • I LIKE THIS SONG SO MUCH

  • They are not so good live.

  • all backing vocal /guitar dude leave taking back sunday this dude r good but fred r the best is my opinion

  • learn english

  • Who cares who is better? All that matters is what this song means to you. Just because taking back sunday songs means more to you doesn't mean they are better than straylight run. There is no criteria to determine who is a better band so why waste your time in talking about it?

  • If i were to compare tbs to slr i would like tbs better

  • they are two different styles of music, its like comparing gears to unreal, or blink182 to angels and airwaves; just because they have something in common doesn't mean there is a criteria of comparison, but i do see your side of it though tbs was the shit with nolan, i mean theyre still good but not as good, though with fred they were pretty freakin grreat

  • i get tired of seeing tbs tied togther with this band, SLR is so much better

  • did they kick the girl out?

  • no she wanted to take a break.

  • Subjective to interpretation.

  • Your point being...

    Look at where they started out from, they make lots of stuff in there music, and some of it is infact dark. They just don't need the heavy metal sound to do it.

  • I think the best thing that happened to music was John and Shaun leaving TBS and forming Straylight Run (for both bands). Straylight Run is amazing and Matt and Fred were more TBS material. I love both bands though.

  • yeah but now fred is gone so where does that leave TBS

  • fred has the color fred

    and tbs is great with matt fazzi.

  • yeah Antonio Longo..who was replaced by Adam..who is much better :)

  • John Nolan freakin owns..but i liked him better when he was in taking back sunday :(

  • i love this song but i wish tbs got back together... . sooo much talent it makes me sad lol

  • die

  • you guys are all fucking faggots. okay jesse actually played fucking bass and back up vocals and john and eddie played guitar. Then Jesse left to join the rookie lot and adam stepped up and played bass and then got moved to vocals and shane cooper came in.

  • *shaun cooper

  • So please...be honest...

  • if Jesse and John were to make a band it would be crazy. That band would be so badass.

  • lol yeah and Jesse Lacey on Guitar and vocals... Jesse lacey is the best out of all of them... that fool a god. lol

    -Jeff

  • I'm so glad Michelle is leaving to do a solo career. She bugs me a little.

  • then why did john nolan leave tbs?

  • can anybody send the album The Needles the Space

    and Straylight Run

    please please !!!

    my icq-number 471805357

    THANK YOU

  • John Nolan and other members of tbs came out with an opposing side to the song and named it "theres no i in team". Where as shortly after John Nolan left to become part of straylight run. So all of the bands have some similarities seeing as how they either use some of the same lyrics or have former members of TBS in them, So yes, Straylight Run and Brand new can be considered a spin off of taking back sunday.

  • Ok, First off John Nolan and Jesse Lacey both started out in Taking back sunday as did Fred Mascherino, Jesse and John endedup having a dispute when Jesse's girlfriend cheated on him with John. Jesse then left and started in a different band, called the rookie lot. Since then he moved on to the Brand new. John Nolan continued with TBS and Adam Lazzara become part of the group. Jesse in Brand new came out with a song called seventy time 7,

  • umm wrong. fred mascherino was not originally in the band. sorry!

  • Didn't say he was originally in the band, only said his career started off with taking back sunday, which means taking back sunday made him famous which is true.

  • no your wrong yet again. fred's career started off in breaking pangea and was recruited into taking back sunday after john left and took shaun with him. and no you didnt even say that his career started off with tbs you said "John Nolan and Jesse Lacey both started out in Taking back sunday as did Fred Mascherino" which fred obviously did not start out in taking back sunday.

  • adam was always apart of tbs

    he just played bass

  • dude were not even talking about adam and we all know that he played bass on their first demo.

  • I have Will's personal Myspace.

  • is the girl john nolan's sister?

  • Yeah, she is

  • I love Brand New and Straylight Run. They're my favorite two.

  • i love indie music!! this and tbs are the shit!!!

  • Taking Back Sunday aren't indie rock. They're just an indie band. Go listen to Cursive or something. Maybe the Get Up Kids

  • i know dude. i knew they werent indie rock. i was just stating that i think tbs and this are the shit!!

  • okay so i hate the bickering back and forth between people on here. Some music hits some people while it doesn't others. That's what's great about music. Their are thousands of genres with little sub genres not everyone is ganna like it all. Anyways back to this band it = Amazing i love Indie music cuz its INDEPENDENT. They can create what they want and aren't controled by a label. I love what Straylight Run has created good work its beautiful

  • seems like the only good band if not only good one the best tbs spin off band is brand new

    cant say i like colour of fred or straylight run

    this band seems to have the build up of tbs but not the building if you get it

    chouruses don't stick out much blend in with the verses too much

  • kareles

    brand new put out their album before tbs. how are they a spin off? brand new is more of a rock band than tbs. tbs is more of a scremoesque punk rock band. granted jesse did start out with tbs but they sucked then. the only reason tbs is more popular is because brand new doesn't give a crap about the media.

  • i say brand new are a spin off from taking back sunday as are straylight run and the colour friend because the bands have a direct link from taking back sunday

    I don't mean it is degrading, but it's just like how say marvel wer to do a series on mary jane it would be a spider man spin off as in the sense that jesse, fred and john started at tbs den started their own band. i dont fink tbs r as media inclined as u fink or deyd b like mcr and trying to ride out on the emo crowd

  • its the color fred not friend

  • i get what your saying.

  • I love John's voice :)

  • very wierd but ok i guess . . .

  • the video's concept was great, cept it looked like there was a hole on the bottom of the suitcase for the people to fit.

  • well considering theres no such thing as magic.. is there any other way?

    =p

  • this band sucks....i just looked it up because John and Shaun were in taking back sunday so i was hoping this band would be like that 1.....but its not

  • Good vid. Good song. It sucks that universal records dropped them.

  • great song, first time i've heard it. Straylight Run is the best band.

  • awesome vid...horrible song...::just blunt::

  • i was just looking up these people cuz im seeing them live soon and i wanted to be familiar to the music and i just realized that i liked this song a while back and i forgot about it.

  • Same here.

  • he fit into a suitcase.

    she went into a suitcase.

    claustrophobia.

    scary.

  • the girl in the olivish dress is that nolans sister?

  • yeah it is.

    and she use to date nolan's former bandmate, adam lazzera...or so they say...

  • Adam Lazzara n_n

  • yup Michelle Nolan, and she is hot :o

  • all their vids are always so sick.

  • Underrated band, seriously. They are amazing.

  • this bands alright..they're supporting the used atm there not as god as the used but there not too bad

  • damn i want one of those suitcases

  • man this is my favorite song i have it on my i tunes!

  • nice!

  • i'm confused about the girl.

  • k thanks

  • did nolan backup sing in the tbs Cd "tell all your friends"

  • ya he was a guitarist and singer. he was replaced by that one guy who always wears suits and has the beard

  • that 1 dude is fred and he is the best ever...

  • Yea thats why im listening to straylight run ... Nolan mad TBS great

  • as soon as this guy left taking back suday they sucked. hes a good musician

  • i think their old songs are nice but their new songs are ok, need to find their touch

  • OMG I LOVE STRAYLIGHT RUN they are my favorites!!

  • tbs is good, but staylight run is better and theyre not so emo and whiny

  • can't really compare the two. They're different genres

  • ok tbs isnt emo at all the singer might be a little bit in music videos but thier not emo...and thier not whiney they just sing that way they acually have high energy songs and i tink thier better and theve been throught alot wiht ppl leaving the band and they deserve more

  • anyway.. great band... :D

  • yeah.. TBS was better with John(own opinion)..

    but John has different perspective on music..which i think is better and more mature compare to TBS(now)..

  • I can't beleive he left tbs...

    his new music is good but i miss tbs's old songs

  • happy b-day

  • i like TBS better than straylight run, but its absolutely shit without john nolan. this is much better than the new TBS.

  • i cant wait to see them on feb 8 thats my bday haha

  • there playing in st.catharines canada ONT at L3 along with my friends band :) come on out! to L3 ON January 31!

  • holy crap, this video is adorable. I love this song. Anyways, it's far better than the videos they had on the cd computer thingy. I really didn't like those. They looked too.. amateur.

  • whatever happened to SLR, I luff them + their songs and that's all I care for. =]

  • i hate victory but not as much as i hate major record companies.

  • D: Who left? I didn't hear about them for a long time... They're kind of new for me too! It's the main singer right? I still love them though... :)

  • No one left this band.

    People are talking about how John Nolan (the lead singer) and Shaun Cooper (bass player) left the band Taking Back Sunday after the album Tell All Your Friends. It doesn't matter really cause this band is far better.

  • Wait, so this used to be a five people band? I saw their other videos, there's only three people! Gee, what ever happened to this band? D:!

  • No two of the members of this band are former members of Taking Back Sunday, but they left and then formed this band.

  • lol, wow people are kinda slow.

    tbs went downhill after those two left (mainly john)

  • MableSarypoo: Nothing happened to this band. There's 4 members. There's always been 4. John, Michelle, Shaun and Will. Well, 5 if you include the appearances from Michelle's husband, Jeff.

  • which ones are the ones that left tbs

  • Far from their debut CD (which I loved), definetly a different sound (at least in this song). Not that that's a bad thing at all. I'll definetly buy the album.

  • this just proves johns awesomeness. puts the magic in tbs tbs cd tell all your friends then makes something awesome with straylight. wat did fred ever do? brody pangea..fred is old and weaksauce.

  • exactly john was better and the quality of the music decreased after he left

  • fred might be older but he is still fucking awesome. dont bash on him. what fuck have you done? just shut up and enjoy the fucking music you faggot.

  • wat have i done? the sound of animals fighting, the messenger, thursday. i had a hand in all of those. fred is far from awesome

  • great band, great video :]

  • oh by the way i mean rivers, not river's. should have proofread!

  • p.s. i don't want to sell the other bandmates short. i think michelle's songs are great and from what i've heard she writes the songs herself too (awesome). although i think hayley williams from paramore is good and all for the pseudo-rebellious teens out there and i'm glad a girl is (sorta) rocking, michelle is really the best. her voice got so much better.also will's drumming on this album is amazing.. maybe fred should have kept breaking pangaea together! and shaun is just great.

  • when the album didn't sell well, river's got really regretful and deemed it a failure. although john hasn't called this album a failure his recent myspace post shows how frustrating it can be to create something from the heart that is genuinely what you want to make and to not have it received well. but what do you really expect from the society we live in.

  • the needles the space is the best album i've heard in a LONG time. to me it's representative of weezer's pinkerton. not musically, but in the way that the blue album was a big commercial success, not to mention a collection of great pop songs. after weezer made a little money river's tried to make a cd from his heart that obviously spoke to a more segregated audience than the prior works.

  • well, fred quit tbs and said that it was a waste of his time. so, maybe this could lead me to think that tbs was better with john instead of fred. fred's solo stuff is good, tho.

  • ummm

    this a a straylight run video

    how did you kids get on taking back sunday?

    and fred is better

  • John Nolan and Shaun Cooper use to be in Taking Back Sunday.
