Jets to Brazil - Sweet Avenue

[JBrrou]

A beautiful song.

[Pr0ndo]

This song is just so great, feels good man.

[inb4deth]

i like how the fags comments finally died off. it took a year, but it finally happened

[cultureSmock1978]

Hey, does anyone know who the fuckin stooge in the picture is? Pretty damn certain that's not Blake Swartzenbach.

[NailHimBackUp]

@cultureSmock1978 That's Damien Rice, and he's a fucking awesome musician.

[shootnmove]

Thumbs up if the paintball video PUSH brought you here

[coffeefusion]

Part of me understands the Jets to Brazil fanboy anger.. that a song they love gets attributed to another artist.

Having said that, I would have never heard of this song or this band if it wasn't for the fact that the song was misattributed to Damien Rice.

That may be a completely travesty, and some Jets to Brazil fans may look down on me because of that fact. But I don't care. Because of the mistake I'm listening to a song I think is great.

[nickymonauge]

I love this song . The picture of Damien Rice doesn't bother me at all cause I love Damien as well....Did you think may be that Jets to Brazil like him as well , and the picture went well with the song?

[acehalligan]

This song is not by nor does it have anything to do with Damien rice, whoever the hell that is.

[killyourdad]

who the fuck is damien rice? I just thought it was a photo of some random dude..

[nikkoballs]

in a weird way he sounds like stewie from family guy

[litchity]

Makes me wanna sit and watch the autumn sky. Damn I love this song!!

[nickymonauge]

@litchity That is exactly what i think as well

[Sangaro11]

I always felt like there was something missing in my life and i could never express it until junior year at school and my engish teachr should me some song and this one was one of them and it described how i felt. I started to paint and feel great about myself and made me realize i need to live for more. I left my home town and enter a place where i knew no one and if the first time i felt worth it.

[sebbster2000]

I wish YouTube wouldn't automatically play the next video. I was listening to this beautiful song and then had to endure the Vengaboys - To Brazil. What gives?

[MusiclyImmersed]

Best song ever... or at least in the top ten mellow ^_^

[crosstowntrain]

we got our band name from this song :)

[Zcarpfaize]

@crosstowntrain cool story, bro

[eight6sevenfive3oh9]

Damien Rice looks kinda sad about the seriousness of the internet.

[Sarcastic07]

Geez people, close your eyes and listen to the song. It's a picture. Get over it.

[idreaminlandscapes]

this is going to be my wedding song

[moopsim77]

this was going to be my wedding song

[surrealismo9]

i accidentally poured gasoline on my cat and then i accidentally dropped a lit match on him. just like i accidentally fell on my boyfriends dick on sunday morning.

[enderberry89]

sad song. i dropped a cigarette on my cat three months ago and it caught on fire and died.

[milkypleasures]

who the f@&k is damien rice

[sobeisforlovers]

I think it's hilarious that he put damian rice as the picture!

[Mitsjol]

@sobeisforlovers thank you!

[shootnmove]

@sobeisforlovers

these useless comments are ruining the song

[kremlindusk1987]

@rockstar858 I found an autographed Hawthrone heights cd at goodwill, thought that was a good indicator..haha.

Anyways, this song is brilliant and I really need to check this band out! :)

[iluvhighfives]

my high school english teacher is basically best friends with everyone in this band, and went on tour with them when they were just starting off. just a little fact for today :)

[rockstar858]

hawthorne heights sucks ass!! i worked at a music store for about a year, and the HH albums were just baaaad. Thumbs up for this song, and damien rice.......but ummm yeah change the picture. wtf? pure logic. if you like the song, put the band picture on there.

[HomebrewMelvin]

troll'd.

[notyourmartyr]

I think it's kinda cool with the Damien Rice picture. Like, people who like Rice, but don't know JTB will see the picture, think 'oh, new Damien Rice song', watch the vid, read the comments and be like 'Jets To what now? It's good, though, I'll check this band out.' Thus, more people discover how great JTB is. It's a positive thing.

[alexbongo1]

tbh im not arsed there's a picture of Damien Rice, I love this song, thats why im watching/listening to this. Your argueing about nothing, chillout and enjoy this beautiful song

[ShamzStarr]

It's Blake from JawBreaker who is singing everyone.

[shootnmove]

PUSH VIDEO SOUNDTRACK

This song brings back memories

[Slapcorn]

@shootnmove FUCKING BEST!

[firefaerie25]

...it doesn't even sound like Damien Rice...so...picture or not...I know it's not Damien singing...but it is strange his photo is placed for this...::Shrug::...beautiful song either way

[mypolyteknic]

i like damien rice. my friend gave me a file of this song downloaded from a website, and it also gave the credit to damien, which isn't really fair. however, anyone who looks up this song sees damien's real videos in the sidebar, so its not all bad!

[thelostgirl6nine]

I couldn't care less whose photo is on the video.

This is my favorite song, and the video I always choose

when wanting to hear it on YouTube.

Thank you for putting it on here to begin with.

[fudged71]

love the video captions, OP!

[mandroid87]

i'm primarily a bass player but this made me learn how to play guitar

[eniac78]

Hey thats not Jets to Brasil! (In the picture I mean)

[staercky]

This tune was the first song at our wedding. Not easy to dance to, but hey.

Beautiful song.

[MrPonty81]

let damien alone!!!!!

[Bt3am]

troooooools

[itsmejerks]

you took time to add the "cute" little chat bubbles and argue with everyone about the pic but its too much work to change it? LAME, (on many levels) turn in your web user card....

[mygenericusernamenow]

@itsmejerks your name sums you up. Are you really watching this for the video or rather the lyrics. For the art? Come on. Have some dignity.

[itsmejerks]

@mygenericusernamenow youre right generic person, Im the one who has no dignity because i think its a slap in the face to the artist who ACTUALLY MADE the music to post someone else's picture in their place & I have no dignity because I thinks the poster is lazy because ITS A PHOTO TO BE CHANGED NOT WRITING SOURCE CODE. Blake & Jeremy deserve better but thats because Im smart enough to understand the work they put into what they do. stfu & go away you passive aggressive idiot

[mygenericusernamenow]

@itsmejerks doesn't get any more passive aggressive than trolling youtube :)

[itsmejerks]

@mygenericusernamenow ok asshole lets go thru the chain of events here, i watched a video, it was lame, i posted a comment on the video to THE POSTER OF SAID VIDEO that A)didnt involve you B)wasnt directed at you and finally c)DIDNT KNOW U EVEN EXISTED until you arbitrarily engaged me with your insults from safety of your computer monitor...whos the fukn troll here??? yeah, buddy its you.... seriously, stfu, you've outlived your purpose in this conversation idiot

[mygenericusernamenow]

@itsmejerks Do you really think i care about your rants? Put the meth down. Step away from the computer, and attempt to troll like this in your abysmal social interactions. Please don't even fucking respond im tired of seeing your poor self esteem in my inbox.

[mygenericusernamenow]

@mygenericusernamenow Oh and the "video" you watched was nothing but a mere picture. If you honestly gave a fuck about the artist you wouldn't watch it FREE on youtube. k thanks bai

[Deus89]

maybe the cigarette is a metaphore as well ?

at least that was my interpretation of it.

no need to start calling names btw, that's impolite and clearly a sign of immaturity

[ohmythatsjohnny]

i will forever associate Damien Rice with this song now...although the two have very little/nothing at all to do with each other.

Thanks youtube...thanks.

[evilmonkeyinacloset]

One of the best Lyricists of our time. His songs are full of allusions and metaphors. His way with words is, with a lack of more fitting words, beautiful and magnificent. Every song on this album truly makes me think and wonder what exactly he's thinking. Any band that can do this is, not only amazing, but steps bounds beyond what the pop culture considers music. Major kudos to JTB.

[rome8180]

Could you change the picture to reflect the fact that it is not, in fact, Damien Rice. Thanks.

[Mitsjol]

@rome8180

No. I'm not going to edit the entire video because the picture is wrong. Do you actually spend the entire song looking at that picture?

[rome8180]

@Mitsjol 1) It looks, and in fact, is ignorant. 2) It's not that much effort. You were willing to take the effort to upload it in the first place. But you were not willing to bother to find out who the artist is (a simple google search of the lyrics works) or to change it once you found out it was wrong? It's pretty much a slap in the face to the real artist, as I see it.

[Mitsjol]

@rome8180 When I uploaded it I believed it was Damien. The video was called Damien Rice - Sweet Avenue. I changed that. Everyone is now able to access the video and listen this song by searching for Jets to Brazil. Who cares what picture you're seeing.

If Jets to Brazil has a problem with me slapping them in the face with a Damien Rice picture, I'm sure they'll let me know.

[mygenericusernamenow]

@Mitsjol whats that guys problem? dont feed the trolls homie! Thanks for the upload!

[baronmorris]

I think it's weird but kind of funny.

[masteruber12]

@Mitsjol

I don't see why you two were arguing over whether damien rice should be in the video at all because the song itself sucks. If anything, I'd be more worried about Rice's sentimentality, but I doubt he cares.

[masterwhil]

@Mitsjol That's pretty funny man. You should have put a picture of W in there or something. It would be less confusing xD

[tehooper]

@Mitsjol How about I let you know it's a slap in the face to Jets to Brazil fans to have a different artist's photo up there. At least put up an image of the Orange Rhyming Dictionary cover, or *gasp* a photo of Jets to Brazil.

[danny67676]

@Mitsjol lmao

[mygenericusernamenow]

@rome8180 I actually dig the eye candy

[MarkBoo1288]

@rome8180

i love the way you inject an "in fact" into every comment you post to make yourself look more intelligent, but you aren't smart enough to properly place a comma.

[ybidiotic]

@Mitsjol hahahahaha :') that's funny :P yes, i do look at the pic the entire time, change it! hhahahahahaha

[hoolifart1]

@rome8180 Or you could bury your face in a pile of shit.

[rome8180]

@hoolifart1 I could do that, yes. But it does seem a fair number of people are in agreement with me. No trolling here. It's just unfortunate that it's the wrong picture. Doesn't "reflect the feeling of the song" any better than a picture of a random guy who is not, in fact, another musician would, or a picture of something else all together, if you're not going to go with a picture of Blake.

[hoolifart1]

Respond to this video... Th is a good picture, definetly reflects the feeling of the song.,

[kimbers187]

best record ever

[Deus89]

wish I could stumble upon a girl like the one in this song

[pbstud]

@Deus89 This song is about a cigarette butthead.

[someapplejuicod]

this song sounds allot like i'm no superman from lazlobane anyone know which song was first???

[Arturorosas1]

i LOVE damien rice!

[doubletimedance]

hey piper do you like this song,

[Geena11]

Soft and sweet along your lips now.........I go "OH WOW" :)

[crassisdead]

I normally can't stand love songs but this is just perfect. Not cheesy like most love songs.

[geo24793]

hard to desribe in words how this song makes me feel =)

[Biggens8632]

Great Song! I transcend every time I hear it..

[SoyLaJefa]

this is one of my favorite songs ever! love it!

[dmaccballer]

Love Damien Rice.. I swear u can have a terrible day but for some reason Jets to Brazil's "Sweet Avenue" melts it all away..

[SoyLaJefa]

@dmaccballer  that is so true! it's so relaxing!

[Dietrootbear]

blake schwarzenbach looks so scary when all his neck muscles tense up while he's singing. Then you hear him sing a song like this and it's like watching a 500 pound bengal tiger starting to lick your face,,,,,,or maybe not....You get the point.

[wellwrought]

My very favorite lovesong, because it's so flourishingly descriptive. And it never uses the word "love," a very vague term.

[IcarianX]

@wellwrought it's about cigarettes, not love...

[edgmntblvd]

@IcarianX

he's using cigarettes as a metaphor for love.

[RagingReggieFC]

@edgmntblvd

or is he using love as a metaphor for cigs? :)  we will never know......

[Rmac2007]

The best last song an any album ever

[isquarejenny]

Blake Schwarzenbach is a total badass. Every band he has ever been in has been great

[markiee131]

not trying to be funny mate, but why did you feel you had to post that?

[ebazle]

Anyone thinking this is an "emo song" like fucking Hawthorne Hills or whatever needs to stop cutting there wrist, its distorting you hearing. This song is true Alt. and a damn good one at that

[mixtapeinfection]

yea bro, true "alt." word dawg you def know your stuff, thanks for your input.

faggot.

[jaggerrocks]

you do know his band before this, jawbreaker was considered the god father of emo alongside sunny day real estate. i know it was considered mainly punk, but it was pretty damn dark on some ends and if you listen some of blakes lyrics can get pretty depressing

[thineleachbath]

@ebazle hahahaha hawhthorne hills

[TeamKeane2]

i love this is song! very cute!! the band who actually sings it is called "jets to brazil" not damien rice!! but they're both great artists!!! :)

[ByoudoubleTER]

Hawthorne hieghts sucks Jets = way better band in everyway...anyway..you people think this is a love song like about a person...but listen to the lyrics...its about a cigarrette

[veridikal]

i agree with what you say about the cigarette.. but it's actually a metaphor. like, the girl is the cigarette. it's just comparative.

[theswordkicksass]

you are completely right, it can be both about a cigarette and a girl, most people view it as a girl cuz the way the lyrics are

[thekidwithdog]

@veridikal horray for someone finally seeing metaphors in lyrics so many people completely miss them

[autumnxautopsyxx]

either way it sux

[Andrew301]

@ByoudoubleTER Its about a donkey, actually.

[resistdeath]

Oh jesus, I could never not love this song.

[isquarejenny]

I agree.

It's such a great song.

They're an amazing band

[autumnxautopsyxx]

have u heard of hawthorne heights <2+1

dat is good muzik!

[isquarejenny]

Are you seriously comparing Hawthorne Heights to Jets to Brazil?

That's ridiculous.

[autumnxautopsyxx]

cept hawthone heights is actualy gud!

[whycantibefree]

damn this song is so good ..sosososososososososososososo­sososo good . Budding at my fingertips, touching you i start to bloom.

[autumnxautopsyxx]

dis band sux!

wut da heck r u talking about

[slopium]

@autumnxautopsyxx where the fuck did you learn to spell? or would it just hurt your fat, McDonald's grease covered fingers to type out complete words? go back to your comfortable, prepackaged pop music!( oh yeah and fuck off while your at it.)

[autumnxautopsyxx]

thnx!

ill rember!

[slopium]

seriously, did you scroll down and see the comments that dumbshit left, saying JTB sucks and Hawthorne Heights is so great? and probably purposely misspelling things to sound cool...maybe I am a prick, but at least I think for myself.

[notyourmartyr]

@slopium I think that person was just looking to get a rise out of people.

[stpnfgt]

thorns of life broke up. the band he's in now is called forgetters.

[bbirkinbine]

Blake is now in Thorns of Life.

[Shoegall23]

tolles lied!

[ironWoodchuck]

Hey guys. Anyone here like Damien Rice?

[FarYEAR]

who de fuck is at?

[reedux19]

@ironWoodchuck I like rice, does that count

[notyourmartyr]

@ironWoodchuck Yeah, I've heard a few of his songs, he's alright. I prefer JTB, though.

[burningjoe]

Jet's to Brazil...not Damien Rice...tho he is good...Blake is GOD!

[JeffryHarrison]

Let me sum it up this way:

Damien Rice = sucks

Jets to Brzail = RULES!

Whoever thinks Damien Rice had anything to do with this song needs to jump off a bridge...immediately

[scenepointnazi]

i heard Blake had a nervous breakdown on stage 2 years ago and no longer performs on stage but devotes all his time to teaching now. Anyone want to confirm this?

[Scipiosis]

pretty sure he is in a band atm

[LISTENTOLIZZIE]

Living by the hour, I stop for every flower.

[s2parker]

its jets to Brazil!!!

[ajsmooth79]

Still wish jawbreaker where about. Lovely tune though. Problem is that I'd rather listen to pavement than jets to brazil. But hey if thats all thats left of Jawbreaker then It'll have to do ;-)

[dumpel]

I dont get it, is this damien rice or the band Jets to Brazil?

[blueeyeddreamer719]

Yeah i assume the picture is wrong, but I loveeeeee jets to brazil....no matter what picture is pasted on top. Mmmm this is positively one of my favorite songs...

[Jeffo42069666187]

Why did this amateur rip off Damien Rice? So bogus. He sounds like a fag anyway. He is singing about a dude, I would bet anything.

[ChinTheSin]

this guys been making music longer then damian rice so back that down...some1 just put up this picture on accident i assume

[Jeffo42069666187]

First of all, this "guy" hasn't been making music ver long because I have never heard of him. Second of all, he is making this song sound like its some kind of ode to pole smoking. Damien Rice wrote this song about getting some mad poon during spring break.

[Metavain]

Haha dude i'm sorry because you're fucking retarded! Just because you've never heard of him doesn't mean he hasn't been making music long haha

I can't even flame you correctly because you're so stupid!

[plateofshrimp]

First of all, you need to stop sucking so many dicks because the semen is obviously hazing your thought process. Second of all, who in the fuck is Damien Rice?

[Jeffo42069666187]

Damien Rice is the President of the Gays. He is the one who schedules the Gay parades in Washington DC. He is considered the most powerful fag in America and leads their political action committee, lobbying congress to push the gay agenda. This video is a rather poor knock off of a famous Damien Rice song.

[ricebowl892]

nope.

[ricebowl892]

Damien Rice is one of the most poetic and genuine musical artists of all time.

[FlavioDulwich]

it's not by him, though the video poster mistakenly put a photo of him.

[minyafriend]

hahahaha you my friend are a genius

[Robewho]

Man, Blakes voice is so unmistakable. Jawbreaker was always one of my faves.

[whycantibefree]

how did these guys not become uber famous ??? i never even saw a video ?

[bradleymuffins]

I'm confused. Is this Damien Rice singing? Or is it JTB singing with a Damien Rice picture!?!!!?

[muchufoo]

steve berra lied to me

[TykaChheng]

kys

[aaronsisco]

Jets AND Damian Rice are both awesome.

[chriscauldermusic]

If you're going to put this song up, please put a photo of Blake Schwarzenbach and not Damien Rice. Thx from all Jets fans.

[anotherhappytale]

nice.great band.

for me album "four cornered night" is the best..followed by "orange rhyming d...."

hellou to everyone from croatia (:

(yeah,we exist too) (:

cheers

[Mitsjol]

HOI

[anatomyofluke]

damien..?

[500019579]

He looks like Damien Rice

[pslopez7]

Looks like it is.. search damien rice on google and u'll see this pic

[500019579]

lol wtf, somebody messed up big time. Damien Rice isn't in this band ahhaha.

[jpe1231]

that IS Damien Rice... not Blake Schwarzenbach or anybody else from JTB.

[rencarnacion16]

what is holding you we make 2 spoons?

[brennan1026]

spooning is a way to lay with another person

[snoozeyoulose19]

is to spoon with someone one spoon or two spoons lol

[GRlFFlN]

casn anyone give me the bass line?

[JNSpdi]

simply amazing. my friend introduced me to this band. holy shit. lets just say im glad he did.
