  • good one, hell yeah!!!

  • "..Maybe I'm just crazy or the devil got inside

    But either way my soul is gone

    And I'll end this all tonight

    The one hand throws the whiskey

    and the other throws the gun

    As he cries out to the heavens

    I am not my father's son..."

  • My favourite song atm! <3

  • Comment removed

  • This is why i love acoustics :) Artists who really CAN sing feel the music and you can see it and feel exactly what he's feeling. DAmn good music :)

  • poor replay button :( i think i broke it :-<

  • @Tzevy91 You're such a faggot.

  • Nice man, continue like that :)

  • I love his voice <3<3<3<3

  • I love these guys with a passion!

  • True music!!!!

  • Love this song this is 1 of my fav songs by them

  • My son will never be like his father

  • Second song by them to make me cry.

  • this is my favorite alte band.. THUMBS UP for this group. they really feel the flow of their music with soul.

  • i just thought about it...where's the drummer? lol

  • @TekNacho Brad is their original drummer - back when One Red Light came out, they hired different drummers for different legs of their tours, so they didn't actually have a steady one. Daniel Adair, who now plays for Nickelback, was the drummer on Seventeen Days. Greg Upchurch has been with them since 2005.

  • 15 is not their father's son

  • Awesome!!! 

  • His voice makes me teary, chilled, and musically turned on all at once. IT'S AMAZING! My dream is to sing a song with him one day. Must be done before I die!!!

  • @namarie1511 ...or he dies... :P

  • i'm so sorry that i can't do more than thumbs up and fav....

  • just discovered this song and video tonight for the first time. I can count on one hand how many current bands I like, and this is number one in my book. Love how they're rockin' in the forest, hugging a few trees?!?

  • great band !! not enough recognition :)

  • Simply CLASS

  • i always loved the sounds of acoustic guitars

  • Awesome!!!!

  • i love this freaking awesome song!!!this bass is very cool..!

  • seather, shinedown, and 3 doors put on one hell of a show

  • @cjt1997 it's seether, not seather, just a casual note there...

  • brillant boys.

  • Is Chris playing a Taylor 412? I love the warm tone that's coming out.

  • this video sure hits in a certain spot gives me chills

  • LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE.. brad arnoldd(:

  • 3 Doors Down and Shinedown are, in my opinion, the only mainstream bands that actually care about what they're playing. Brent Smith (singer of Shinedown) and Brad Arnold put so much emotion into what they're singing. :) God, I wish they would tour together. :)

  • @bwioiw

    What I meant is I wish they would tour again with Shinedown. ;)

  • @bwioiw I would have to agree with your statement and add one more singer/band to this and that would be Aaron Lewis and STAIND.. would you not agree?

  • Comment removed

  • @bwioiw they have toured together bruh XD before shinedown was ever famous

  • fothers wother i think

  • the guitarist in the hat is crying..

  • @Heinousness Listen to the lyrics, it's a very emotional song.

  • @xDimHalo

    i know, i just think its so fucking awesome.

  • omg! love it!

  • I believe that not only are they real musicians, but they are real down to earth people. They are selfless and they care about important matters. My school mates just like all these metal groups which make songs with no tune and pointless lyrics which you can't even understand. And the music effects those people's lives in a large way. Look at how the people of 3 Doors Down are, not fame crazy or selfish, but the complete opposite.

  • I don't do this for pleasure, it's only money in my hand. Nice to see passion while performing.  :) awesome!

  • Das ist der beste Song von denen. Einfach geil dieses Lied

  • Das ist der beste Song wo ich gehört hab

  • @PKar86 Daumen hoch allein wegen der hessischen grammatik

  • ... <3

  • Една от най-яките им песни. Невероятно... глас, текст, изпълнение... всичко.

    Браво.

  • i love this song

    =)

  • When he sings "I am not my Father's son," it brings tears to my eyes. This is real music, just being able to sit down and pour your soul out. Thank you for such beauty

  • mad respect

    i share the pain

    let it out

    

  • This is my definition of real music. A person or a group that writes their OWN songs and a that are able to perform their songs with emotion and still have it sound good even acoustic. sorry guys but i'm sick of this American Idol bullshit where they sing songs that other's have already created.

  • Amazing song, these guys have real talent:)

  • awesome

  • this is one of my favorite songs to cover

  • good voice !!! OMG

  • i love  this version its awesome,better than the album

  • me and a bunch of buddys jammed in the woods once it was awesome even though we're rookies we felt great cuz u got nothing but u and ur music

  • thats the differance between real musicans and posers real musicans can jam with only there acoustic and their soul

  • @princeof3923 no, the real difference is that real musicians don't treat music as a capitalist business or an organisation. They earn money by playing music, not through capitalism. That's what blemished contemporary music

  • Amazing...so what to see them live!!!!

  • Pure Tallent.

    Another band I want to see live.

  • i love this video you guys are really good

  • awesome talent!!

  • Comment removed

  • were all human sunshine, we all have back ground

  • you can tell hes feeling it, hes emotional

  • of course you fucker he's feeling it. The song is supposed to be emotional. Just stop making stupid comments.

  • lol man you're sick. Go to a doctor or take a plane let me fight you. I live in sydney.

  • Great song and jamming in the Woods:D

  • they re jammin`?

  • im so in love with his voice. this is the best band i have ever seen live. hands down. they are amazing!

  • They are so awesome,Brad's voice is great:D

  • brads voice. matt on the guitar. my god what a combo.

  • I really love this song and all of them really. Love the acostic sets they are great live :)

  • yeah, their songs are GREAT! i really love their songs!

  • no the song it about a girl rebelling against her parents, going out and having fun and she ends up getting raped and she realizes that she made a mistake and will never do it again. Then the second half of the song is in the man who had raped hers perspective. He realizes that he is wrong and will never let it happen again either.

    I listened to an interview with brad and i just stated his exact words so dont argue with me please.

  • oh and i forgot to say, this is an amazing song

  • awesome

  • that's what I call a pretty good album promotion

  • I like the acoustic version a lot more...

    They all look like they're crying in this one..

  • Lol I noticed that too.Might be sweat, Though they look sad.

  • i like this acoustic version better than the album

  • love it!

  • OMG he does look like Jordan Staal!

  • Whoa, he does!

  • I love this version its awesome! Better than the CD

  • This song is amazing and it says so much. 3 Doors Down cures every mood

  • does anybody got more from this "event"?

  • wow what a great song... just like always. awsome

  • matt roberts look like jordan staal

  • I'm pretty sure it's a prostitute since he says "I'm going to get my moneys worth" and "she says they'd never understand,I don't do this for pleasure,I just do it cause I can".

  • i think this is about home violence "that things like that can happen to a 17 year old" and the line "Blood stained gown" means she was a virgin and the "Im not my fathers son" i guess this is the kid screaming after painful memories

  • correction the fathers son could be the father thinking about it afterwards and dont think hes worthy to be his fathers son

  • the songs about a man who abuses a prostitute who has kids. he struggles to come to terms with what hes done as he has a kid himself. he becomes a drunk and is ashamed, knowing his father was the same. he overcomes it and changes.

  • Brad and the others rock the world!

  • So... It seems, from the comments below, that he raped a virgin, not a prostitute. He couldn't handle it so he killed himself. Makes the most sense.

  • :)

    toll

  • he didn't kill her the first time that a girl has sex she bleeds so it says blood stained gown because that was her first time haveing se x and it shows that she is a virgin. THat is why he says "blood stained gown". IT adds irony to the part where he says " i odn't do this for pleasure i just do it cause i can" she had never done it before. I hope this answers some of ur questions. BTW i love the vid and the song. THis songs has and awsome beat and they look awsome just jamming in the woods

  • I'm sorry, but you've got it wrong, a girl doesn't have to bleed the first time she has sex... but a girl who doesn't really feel like having sex and is tense, will most likely start to bleed! great song btw..

  • LOVE IT XD

  • wow, this song is great.

  • awesome

  • GREAT SONG ..  WoW

    :-)

  • brad rocks they rock

  • awesome song! :)

  • ...Great song...

  • nice

  • Grrr anyone have any idea about the acoustic chorus chords? Can't find any around anywhere. All the tab sites have crap ones put up.

  • Ha, so I thought I had clicked on a cover video and walked away... I came back getting ready to comment on how the singer sounded exactly like Brad Arnold...

    Then I realized it really was Brad Arnold.

  • its the normal version to the song, except when playing acoustic, it cause the sound to be completely different. The guitarists are just improvising

  • One of my favorite song of 3 Doors Down...!!!!!

  • Love it :]

  • great!!
