Anthony Green - Seven Years (Live at the Ottobar 5-12-11)

[shaddowmoses91]

This is passion and dedication the "average" rap/pop-music fan will NEVER understand.

[bluewoodie21]

already did this too many times now 

[jakecat87]

"ohhhhh" "PLEASE!"

[downfallofmyballz]

crowd is harmonizing haha

[iBlowAtDrumz]

I used to bitch about the crowd singing, but then I saw him live. He tells the crowd "drown me out." It's what he wants, and he puts on a good live show for the people who get off their asses and go see him.

[doctacos1]

@iBlowAtDrumz amen to that

[ajax76065]

Everyone may be complaining about the crowd singing but I know if I was there I would be singing along with him as loud as possible and not give a fuck about the youtube viewers

[Ilikecoffeeandmusic]

This video would be a lot cooler if you could hear Anthony singing instead of the crowd. Seriously, I understand that the crowd was excited but considering HOW OFTEN he is asked to play that song, then when he finally does the crowd sings so loud you can't even enjoying him singing it, it's kind of pointless.

[foreverfindme777]

Circa is a better place for him. Saosin is fucking stale there 2nd full length was fucking garbage

[7saosin]

idk it seams like Anthony Green is trying to run away from his time in Saosin. and i can appreciate that. but i think it would do wonders for his career if he played TTN songs at his concerts. yeah i understand that hes grown since Saosin. But you cant run from what youve made once its out there. do it for the fans.

[sacre13]

Breaking News: He has performed this song on other occasions since Saosin.

[vanskiid]

@sacre13 yea but not recently

[chrisbDTM]

"breakdown, open it up!" hahahaha

[PooderRodney]

This is not as monumental as it would have been made out to be seeing as the audience sang the song for him -_-

[gzadrenalinlcd22]

@PooderRodney that's where you're wrong.

[PooderRodney]

@gzadrenalinlcd22 Really? How so?

[gzadrenalinlcd22]

@PooderRodney considering the crowd went so crazy you couldn't even hear him gives me the impression that people were maybe just a tad bit excited that it was happening. just a guess though.

[PooderRodney]

@gzadrenalinlcd22 So then how am I "wrong" in anything? All you've managed to do is call me out on being incorrect in saying that I can't hear Anthony and then tell me why I can't hear him. This was never about why I can't hear Anthony because I don't care why, the point was that I can't hear him sing because of their "exitement"

[PooderRodney]

@gzadrenalinlcd22 And of COURSE they were exited it's an awesome song but that still has got nothing to do with my comment.

[shaddowmoses91]

@gzadrenalinlcd22 If I was their, I would be "monumental"...I get that lol, but I wasn't so it isn't 

[Ismashguitars111]

@PooderRodney Have you seen this song live? The whole crowd screams the lyrics, shows how much they care about the song. The feeling is monumental.

[pizzaROX]

too be honest anthony looks like he hates this song now

[gzadrenalinlcd22]

@pizzaROX he would have never done this if he hated it. fact.

[byronsanchezzz]

The first time I heard this song I was like 13 and I was like this is a pretty badass song, and I'm hearin' it still to this day. and I realize it means a lot more to me to this day.

[okamasphere]

to bad you couldn't really hear ant singing. The crowd was to loud.

[gzadrenalinlcd22]

thanks for all the views! this was a great moment in my life.

[FredoV94]

so nostalgic!

but i cant fucking hear anthony! haha.

[TrowaB91]

Best part is that you can't seven hear him sing...lol.

[taiyed4311]

So glad I was here for the show. Made the whole night

[RayofGolden]

..........i cant hear him...... stupid crowed

[BleakOD4120]

@RayofGolden oh, come on bro. like if you weren't there you wouldn't be singing at the top of your lungs too lol. especially if its the first time hes performed it outside of saosin. epic

[spencerstrand88]

Booooiiiiinnnngggg

[tak783]

i remember he swore he would never play this song ever again xD

[EvilShake101]

@tak783 lol i just watched that video right before this one haha oh well still awsome

[quikboarder93]

I kinda just teared up a bit. Not sure if it's because I missed this in person or because it was so beautiful, but yea =,)

[greenday418]

Biggest fucking smile on my face right now.

[danxiie]

oomy 

[diieradiiodiie]

lol at the end of the song "OHH MY GOOD"

[theperubeachkid]

I love that this video has 0 dislikes! Beautiful. Just simply beautiful!

[w3c4nbreatheinsp4c3]

break it down. OPEN IT UP.

lolol. <3

[getthyphy]

thank you SO MUCH for uploading this you just made my day

[Concept9221]

Fuck everyone that wants the crowd to shut up. You know anthony loves it when the crowd sings along.

[neilrulz24]

The only part I can actually hear is "tell him his eyes see too clear"

[Swansen03]

does anyone know why he decided to sing seven years after like chastising any saosin song for years now??

[spaghettijustice]

Your description if misleading it's not the first time since Saosin lol. Either way epic video

[pyroplaya18712]

3 circa survive albums, one solo album, and i think 3 the sound of animals fighting albums and nothing beats seven years.

[Bloodsymple]

How can you even possibly not want to hear the crowd sing? He's obviously loving it, and can you imagine hearing so many people sing along with you?

[chrism824]

At everyone commenting about the crowd singing. Shut the fuck up. Its a show. You're there to have a good time, not to be considerate about people on youtube who weren't there

[tjmr15]

iono why everyone is mad at the crowd, i know you wanna hear him sing it, but still, lol this was awesome. If i was there i wouldnt be able to shut the fuck up either.

[ItsMrAnthony]

Why. the FUCK. would you beg. for 7 years at EVERY FUCKING circa show, and then not let the man sing the FUCKING song? why D:

[nthndvnprt]

Anyone else realize how long it's been since Anthony left Saosin?.... 7 Years.

[bmwheeler54]

@nthndvnprt thats funny because i was havin a saosin craving tonite so i was just listening to their music and reading some stuff from their past and i was saying tha same thing to myself. I feel like he literally waited 7 years after he left to sing it again to give it some meaning

[opantsx]

LET THE MAN SING HIS FUCKN SONG!!!!!!!!

[JSMayhem17]

i absolutely love how there are absolutely ZERO dislikes!

[hotpockets222]

@BIGDADDYDUKE2 has it crossed your mind that anthony rasps on purpose? cmon man use your head.

[BIGDADDYDUKE2]

@hotpockets222 Yeah thats what I said. He is raspy on purpose because he can't hit high notes. As seen here. Where hes not raspy trying to hit high notes and it doesn't sound nearly as good. Now use your head.

[ninesandeights1]

This is great. He played it 5 or 6 years ago when he was touring in SOAF too.

[ddods14]

TWA brought me here :)

[imOLDgreeeeg]

This song brings back memory's sooo good

[BIGDADDYDUKE2]

No offense to Anthony he is one of my most favorite vocalist but uh I think hes over rated. He never really did anything to amazing. Cove definitely deserves the credit Anthony gets. I think Anthony and Cove are both almost equal when it comes to singing but when Anthony tries to hit high notes he tends to make it more raspy than high. Where as Cove can actually hit them. Which is more impressive. And there was more emotion in Coves music. Everyone says Anthony has alot of "emotion"...

[AMERICANxxPSYCHO]

@BIGDADDYDUKE2 i agree in the sense that they're equal, they're both really great vocalists.. but anthony has done more "musicwise" with saosin and cicra survive and his own acoustic stuff, all cove really has is saosin, i have no clue if he has his own solo project or not

[BIGDADDYDUKE2]

@AMERICANxxPSYCHO Yeah but you really can't compare the too as far as music wise goes because Cove hasn't been in the business long enough to have something like that said about him. I think Cove does have a solo project, not sure though.

[thecubanjesus]

i gotta say this put a smile on my face

[WillPlayForFoodBand]

I kinda wish the crowd would shut up, but then again, it's awesome either way. Can't blame them for being an amazing crowd.

[venasara]

He needs to get back in Saosin. They don't have a vocalist. It's been seven years ironically.

Something has to happen. Even just a reunion show would be nice.

Though I doubt it would happen.

[thekidwhowantstosing]

the time that he said, break it down and open it up. it sounds like he misses to have a crazy crowd. :) i miss the old saosin <3 ANTHONY GREEN FTW!

[GitarHeroInNeverland]

THE MOST EPIC MOMENT IN MY WHOLE LIFE!!!

[naokiomatsu]

im diggin the 0 dislikes

[guitarfenderomfgz]

the best part was the crowd! I was there that night and seeing everyone screaming along.. and i mean EVERYONE. it was beautiful.

[mjan011095]

wow...d crowd overpowered his voice..still rocks thou.. :D

[bgomz]

man i would have gone crazy for this acoustic version. but i would have gone coo coo for cocopuffs if it was with a full band :)

[CrazyhotpocketsSC]

I guess he got sick of those guys.. :D

[dehscreamo]

fucking shit :D fucking good

[seanlovesbops]

Whoever dislikes this will go to hell. That is a promise.

[mantastrike]

@seanlovesbops Trust me, no one would.

[chewieecow]

OMFG!!

[hugsareforbitches]

Oh please if I was in the audience, I would be screaming my lungs out with Anthony Green singing, But it'd be great to hear his voice.

[naokiomatsu]

this is awesome.

[sc698]

im sorry but the audience is waaaaay to damn loud!!! i couldnt hear a thing

[miggysaur]

amazing

[bholz120]

THIS IS SO FUCKING AWESOME

[auvsxfgt]

I remember Anthony Green use to be chubby

I use to LOVE saosin . with their small gigs . most amazing band back in early 2000's

[MrAfif2009]

is that cove reber who play the guitar?

[wertyuri]

@MrAfif2009 nope

[StevexOwnz]

I thought Ant G Got Pissed About Playing this song? haha

[eckertallex9]

So glad i saw this fucking video

[AhmadStpats]

holy shit this was fucking awesome. and the crowd is amazing, dont tell em to shut up. True fans!

[itsamenancy]

totally agreeing @pivvot

[tashoa]

I wish he returns to Saosin. Just a wish though.

[CronusEatsBaby]

Seven years after he left Saosin? Coincidence?

[Ghatch2]

I guarantee that is why he played it. You are spot on.

[C0URTNEyPAiGE]

i just love watching this, i miss this night!!!

[flyktsoda]

An acoustic set will never rock harder than this.

[tjbale55]

I never thought it would happen..my dream has came true. thanks anthony, you just made a lot of fans happy buddy!!!

[pivvot]

first time he's played this song since saosin... and people ruin it by singing with him... NOW HOW ARE WE GOING TO HEAR HIM SING IT

[lacksapulse]

0 dislikes. That's fucking right.

[Joshmia]

ps. i was the one that said "OOH SHHIIIIT" for the acoustic breakdown. nbd

[27mitcha]

seven years since he left saosin

[jaba06]

if you were there you'd probably be singing-along to so FUCK YOU

[rhspercussionistguy]

I'm glad he can enjoy that song again, I definitely am!

[mcrfansweb]

I wonder if he would ever understand how happy this made us...

[xveinticincox]

OSOM

[Mariooo57]

wish i can hear him more but that was incredible

[betserrr]

it is a little ironic that the crowd has been begging for years for him to sing this song once more and they end up powering his voice, but i can't blame them, if i was there i'd be singing my heart out. LITERALLY. i mean if the tears allowed me to muster up the words.

[Bunomous]

you cant even hear him

[Bunomous]

idk if this is any good because im not wearing headphones so ill fave it in the meantime

[Bunomous]

"that guy" FINALLY WON!

[Antics424]

Wow!, just Wow! <3.<3

[WelcomeSummerRain]

EPIC moment in any saosin/circa/anthony green fan's life orrr? :)

[ShaneGuitar13]

I'm so glad I was there to experience this event :)

[gcwhocares]

Those chords, this song, this person, changed my life. Wow, it's been a while...

Thank you for this video!

[analogies]

i just find it funny that people have wanted to hear him play this song for so long and when he finally does they sing it for him.

[JewofCanada]

@analogies not trying to be a dick but i mean who WOULDNT be singing this song with him?? i would rather hear anthony sing it alone too, but if I was at the show i would be going nuts and singing at the top of my lungs so...

[JewofCanada]

fucking AWESOME!!!!! thanks for the upload... do you have the rest of his set??

[gzadrenalinlcd22]

@JewofCanada only a few songs. he was supposed to wish happy birthday to my friend bridgit but mixed it up with someone else's name from the audience so i was filming just in case he did it again. i have a few others. i've already uploaded one other song "Can't be Satisfied" you can check that out. i'll put the others up now. there's not many and they're short.

[JewofCanada]

@gzadrenalinlcd22 all good. no hurry. just love watching him perform live but he'll never come to buffalo =(

[JosephTemp]

@gzadrenalinlcd22 haha, that was my friend who he said happy birthday too. Sorry about that, didn't mean to steal that from your friend at all. My friend absolutely loves circa and anthony green so I took him to this show for his birthday last friday.

[Kevron81]

@JewofCanada i saw him 2 days later. i have the whole set. check it out.

[radrocker2012]

He had planned to sing this awhile back. He posted it on Facebook, so saying the only reason he sang was cause of the crowd is pretty dumb.

[7pete77]

yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes­FUCKYES!!!!



[TheKazeblade]

You know... its been right about 7 Years since the last time he sang 7 Years :)

[jessbby1994]

I was there, it was amazing.

And to everyone saying the crowd is too loud and shit; he asked for the crowd to sing along with him.

[C0URTNEyPAiGE]

OMG THIS WAS INCREDIBLE!!!!!! one of the best nights of my life! and Cara was amazing too<3

[Alexrachal]

damn the crowd is annoying. I wonder if Anthony thought the same thing. I bet his thoughts went something like this. Before song: "i finally can sing my song again. I hope people get psyched about it." During Song: "WTF! I can't hear myself. Maybe i should just sing backup for the audience."

[WelcomeSummerRain]

One last thing, if the world does end in 2012, my life is now complete. So happy!

[WelcomeSummerRain]

Still watching it, out of words! immense happiness to hear this song sung by the man that made this masterpiece of a song. SEVEN YEARS!

[WelcomeSummerRain]

Chills, i never thought i'd see the day, took me 5 tries to even type this, cant stop shaking. INCREDIBLE! Saosin loses a singer, anthony has his song back? haha jks

[radrocker2012]

Agree the crowd kind of ruined it. They were to loud, u could only hear them.

[WeakStyles]

i wish the crowd would shut the fuck up.

[xxshawn]

@WeakStyles had you been there, you'd be singing just as loud. i hate when people say that the crowd needs to shut up. there's nothing more a musician wants to hear during a show than the crowd singing back to them.

[BearJewBeatdown]

@WeakStyles the only reason he ended up playing this song was because we were the best fucking crowd ever

[jigyoda]

@BearJewBeatdown that's not it

[zoxley41]

@WeakStyles

like you wouldn't sing along too.

\

[zoxley41]

@WeakStyles 

[MrOnorata]

@WeakStyles I wish people like you would...that's the best part about going to see Anthony Green live, which is singing along with him. Not only that but he practically gets off to it too.

[knightshade7]

@WeakStyles It is pretty annoying that the crowds singing, but can you imagine how cool it is for him to have a crowd of people who all know a song he made years ago and sing it with him?

That must be a cool feeling :D

[BucketMafia]

@WeakStyles I don't know if you've followed Anthony very much over the years, but he hasn't sung this song once (well live at least) since he left Saosin in 2004 and I'm pretty sure there's been at least one person at every single one of his shows to request this song, and he used to get REALLY pissed when people would ask. So the fact that these people got to be there to hear him sing this for the first time in 7 years (ironic I know) is a big deal so I'd be screaming too if I was there.

[ffes7]

@WeakStyles He is singing something that he had refused to play for a few years. It's not just any song, either. It's a song that people had asked him to play at every Circa show... So. You seriously expect people to be quiet? (Everyone shut up! Anthony's gonna sing a song we all love, know every word of and have been expecting for years...!) Yeah... That would never happen.

[Concept9221]

@WeakStyles Anthony loves when the crowd sings, so fuck you.

[OfTheDevilToRemember]

@WeakStyles If you were actually there experiencing it I'm sure you'd be singing as loud as you could too!

[KidASquared]

hmpf....kind of disappointing since in SO MANY videos he said he would never play this song. not sure what I think of this

[xXEllez]

This is fucking amazing.

[kilik22]

History.

[saosinwin]

fan-fucking-tastic. i literally have chills. that would have been so awesome to see! i am truly envious of you!
