[thtgyhudiddatting1ce]

@METALLICA848 *an

[METALLICA848]

[k33l3yy]

The things dangling off of his mask would bug the shit out of me.

[QuoteUnquote27]

@k33l3yy They're dreadlocks...

[theblackwell100]

I live right off of SW 9th.....

[TheCombineOverlord]

This interview is sad :(

[Danzainc]

Wow his voice is higher pitched!

[brmnman]

Slipknot should meet korn so they can all live under a bride lol

[weses1]

goddamnit... i love this guy

[kraskata2012]

i gave him money when he was homelss. now i want my money back with interest !

[multiguitarist95]

with the money he has he can probably hire a person to look for those people and reunite with them

[joshlerd]

Come back for us man! We're still underneath this fucking bridge!

[MRchielb]

@joshlerd nice you did homeless work and buyd a laptop!

[LittleHandyBran]

dont sound like corey lol

[DOOM3PLAY3R]

@LittleHandyBran this is like 10 yrs ago

[MrZombie747]

damn he put more tags in the description than the actual tags lol

[me25521]

im gonna live under a bridge then watch this and go ...Holy shit...

[laughorgomad]

Kindness is given so kindness can be re-given

[JunkyMcSnot]

I once tried to take a pickup truck full of firewood to the homeless under that exact bridge. Apparently they are very weary of strangers, I got chased outta there with rocks and glass bottles......still with a truck load full of firewood.

[Direksone]

@heftybeats lulz yea, cause you know right? they mustve faked an interview! fuck off.

[nimrod13ful]

corey taylor's voice wasnt that deep when he was yonger

[IIVikingII]

Man watching this reminds me how dark he was. He really mellowed and changed in recent years. Not saying it's a bad thing.

[CokeXinXmyXnose]

@00kLki you are a fucking retard.... and guess what he's making more money then your queer ass ever would or even have the talent to do. So suck a dick and cradle the balls while your at it.

[Josephthecrazyguy]

this is why i hate ppl tht make fun of homeless, it sickens me. Its not their fault and some turn out to be great (corey for an example) other dnt get the luck but are still unique ppl in their own way. I feel bad for them how ppl make fun of them and shit, it pisses me off and I speak up for them when shit like that happens.

[208sk8aeao]

what song is this about

[z3roemachine]

@208sk8aeao Left Behind

[mrkingofpain76]

Atleast he isnt ashamed of it. We all have hard times in our lives. Im getting ready to be walking the streets myself. Fucking choices ive made has lead up to me being without a place to live.

[MrBearcat73]

Talk about rags to riches!

[jontyboy8675309]

who cares about the money? it's the music

[prohacker883]

@jontyboy8675309 if u dont have money no fucking music bro

[artachira]

[MsSmilyClown]

@artachira The song "Left Behind" from the album Iowa :)

[ibemobbinlkeee]

[KoRnholEO1000]

[THEEDGEOFIDIOCY]

[cky1088]

@GunJack4444 Corey Taylor was a huge alcoholic and hugely Dependant on drugs for a long while....Facts my friend.

[3mooi]

[mitxke]

[EpicWalsh]

@mitxke He says "Left Behind" right in the begging of the vid, and you can also hear it in the outro.

[clawhex]

hey that beaver chick is stealing what slipknot has....a song disease called beaver fever

SlipKnoT had a song disease first an i right stay (SiC) ma666ots

[Puhaboy99]

O:!!! INHALE BY STONE SOUR ;F

[pattydrumbeast]

Shows how fags like Bieber and the Jonas' have no talrnt compare to this guy.

if THEY were homeless on the street, they wouldnt last a day

[RatedTLC]

...and this is one of the reasons that I just absolutely love Slipknot.

[metalworshiper123]

those homeless guys will one day watch this and go HOLY FUCKING SHIT

[KoRnholEO1000]

@metalworshiper123 HA HA HA HA HA!

[fuckthisc1ty]

@metalworshiper123 i dont they will if theyre r homeless

[pat0dog]

@metalworshiper123 But... how will they access youtube, let alone a computer? :S

[xXxSHOCKWAVEx]

@heftybeats yes it is....?

[AncientGamer1]

@heftybeats

how?

[BRIANCAIN15]

im sorry that your homeless man i hope that you see your other frends agin

[OneManWolfPack66]

IOWA WERE THE BEST MASKS

[ConnorxNxKC]

This is why Slipknot is fucking amazing. They aren't in it for the money. They are in it for the passion of music. They all went through some hard times in life and overcame them with their music. This is why they are my favorite band of all time. Stay (SIC)! Maggot 4 life!

[skateguy2012]

@heftybeats woooow wer u dropped on your head or are just like a random 10 year old whos friend etc, told him/her about slipknot after the fact of paul greys death? cuz theres no way a maggot could be the Rtarded

[GreenFloyd12]

@heftybeats what the fuck do you mean it's not corey?

[ikdsjOFFICIAL]

 cool

[Jokerprodution]

corey was homeless? my god, slipknot deserves much more fame and media interest than faggy Justin Bieber and other populare media ladies that is born with fame.

[sc682941]

Homeless to International Superstar go corey!!!!!

[Zakkstabubba]

How old was he?

[blackjacket123]

@Zakkstabubba I heard he was 16 or 17

[shiks24]

anyone else watch this and after listened to left behind ?

[TheKhaosdogg]

Living under a bridge...

Someone really influencial in music already beat you to it.

[Cqub3]

@KiKDyLaN lolwut

[jtbmetal123]

This is fucking cool

[cocoromoo]

Wat song is he talking about?

[omicida4991]

@cocoromoo He said "the song Left Behind is about..".

[Viguene]

@cocoromoo He said "Left behind" are you deth?

[DaredDevil2142]

The same thing happened to me when I was homless. Made some great friends only to move on and leave them, it fuking sucks.

[MW2ispwnage]

omg dude i almost cried

[poegrl911]

Wow listening to this totelly made me cry. It's great though that a person's pain can be put into a song and the fans or in this case the Maggots can kinda feel it also. SlipKnoT has helped me in some really bad times.

[yu5uck]

dude i live next to SW 9 man.

[bluemilklovers]

i did not kno that he was homeless til now

[XBlackWhitePantherX]

@bluemilklovers me too :O

[HaLfDeAdArtist]

so thats why stone sour's Inhale video looks like that

[dsmalf]

on sw 9 th , i use to fish down there all the time

[ttravis44]

0:13 I live about 10 minutes from SW 9th. Just thinks its kinda cool that a band as famous as Slipknot comes from Iowa, or members of the band anyways.

[strongerthanallgtr]

@ttravis44 i lived in sioux city and always hung in des moines... iowa is a good place!

[ttravis44]

0:13 I live about 10 minutes from SW 9th. Just thinks its kinda cool that a band as famous as Slipknot comes from Iowa, or members of the band anyways.

[masterlinkx31]

I do believe about Corey being homeless, But i think he kinda over exagerated living under a bridge, it almost seems to me as if he got the idea of saying he lived under a bridge from Kurt Cobain, we all know kurt was homeless in his late teens, and he claimed to live under a bridge but he never did, i think corey is doing the same thing as Kurt did with the story of the bridge, but i do believe he was homeless

[MrSatanochio]

at least he had friends

[TheNeil16]

slipknot MAGGOT for life

[mrguano7]

Well the new corey seems very different compared to this..

[tuttar3]

Haha Just like Kurt Cobain! What a Coincident... That Fucking liar!!!!

[Skepsis0Metal]

@tuttar3 Living under a bridge? Like several thousand other homeless people across the states? Idiot

[tuttar3]

@Skepsis0Metal like your mom? You retard!

[Skepsis0Metal]

Hahaha

oh grow up kiddo

we've moved on from that now

[mercurychick88]

@Skepsis0Metal yeah I think living under a bridge is pretty common... I assume it provides at least some shelter from the elements especially in Iowa where the weather can from what I've heard get a bit crazy... You probably don't want to be just out in the open or everyone steals from you, etc. Bridge is out of the way... Obvious choice as far as those things go :(

[MrThebrawman]

did u now that corey replaced the orginal singer

[TheNeil16]

@MrThebrawman im not suprised corey owns

[xGunSanRoseSx]

i use to cruise SW 9th all the time runnin dope deals back and forth. hittn gravel to i-town and back to the crackhoods i went. what he said really made me think of some real good people i met through out that area as well that i miss greatly and good luck to all florida here i come.

[Connorchaos]

i think he also expresses the homeless story in the video for his stone sour song 'Inhale'

[heiidiii16]

awwww! he sounds so young!!

[MAGGOT4LIFE245]

@Richard19706 oops lol me not payin attention

[slipknotowns34]

Homeless to International Superstar! 

[MAGGOT4LIFE245]

what song he talkin bout?

[angrypooman96]

@MAGGOT4LIFE245 left behind

[ramakrishnan2183]

corey ur god man ur justmore than god for me iand i respect u for all what u did

[HeadbangerFromHell14]

"It looks as if he's about to cry." No?

[RoyLikesKMFDM]

so it`s the song Left Behind he`s talkign about?

[pattydrumbeast]

This is the definition of Talent

without any money at all, he was still able to reach the top

[mantoshka1]

@pattydrumbeast So true...Corey made his own life better, and made our lives better, with his brutal voice.

[multiguitarist95]

that explains the lyric "ive known faces that have disappeared in time"

[croan08]

yea if he missed so bad he could find us

[LethalJizzle]

i just thought it was some metophorical stuff. Cool to know its actually about a time in his life.

[dazenst]

wow i so knowwhat he is talking about

[aSadistsWrath]

@dazenst baha.. do you really?

[dazenst]

@aSadistsWrath yep lol its crazy how fast u lose ppl so close to u on the streets

[aSadistsWrath]

@dazenst i know.. but people move on in the world.. its heartbreaking losing the ones close to you. especially when you have been through a lot

[dazenst]

@aSadistsWrath ya it is but living opn the streets make me stronger now i have a house and everything i could ever need but i had alot of fun times when i was on the streets 

[NileOfBlood6606]

dude thats deep corey...

[ChrisRoughleyTV]

; /  damn

[minutestomidnight090]

hahahahahahaha loser emo queer get over yourself and take off the mask and come out of the closet

[TheXtremity]

@minutestomidnight090 hey screw off man i dont know if maybe ur a faggot urself or that u just dont like having friends but corey taylor slipknot and any maggot on this earth could whoop ur ass. so watch wat u say

[TehPankake]

@TheXtremity Really? because i remember at a Bloodbath concert a m(f)aggot got his ass kicked for wearing a Slipknot shirt and thinking he was hard supporting them?

[TheXtremity]

@TehPankake tru but thatz a whole crowd of people against one person. had it been even i dont think it would hav ended the same way

[earlbarker]

@TehPankake you try going against hundreds of people. and see if you dont get your ass whooped

[TehPankake]

@earlbarker Really? You went back on a comment made 3 months ago? I think I could take hundreds of 13-18 year olds with my hands and feet tied together.  Faggot. Slipknot sucks, and Paul Gray should have died years ago.

[earlbarker]

@TehPankake if you seriosuly think that you can take on 100s of kids, you are one dumb fuck. and talking shit about a dead person, no matter who, does not make you sound cool. it makes you sound like an ass that should have died years ago. and if your opinion is that slipknot sucks, then its your opinion, im not as big of a dumb fuck as you are to think that my opinion is better than yours or anybody else. and i was bored, i went to other comments, who gives a shit when you posted that?

[mercurychick88]

@TehPankake Hey asshole, go talk shit on someone else other than Paul. You're just proving you're a grade A pussy by talking shit on a dead man... how much more pathetic can you get.

[xxXxBreakingxXxx]

@minutestomidnight090 Fuckling screw your own fuck black cock piece clock tock knock our own ass out ass raping savage vagina

[Beholdthecoma]

Ha ha he was homeless is what my friend who doesn't like Slipknot. He's not my friend anymore.

[thapwnisher]

R.I.P Paul, You'll never be left behind in anyone's memories.

[MH46518]

[4lifeawsomemaggot]

[TheMrburningdog25]

[goshish666]

R.I.P. Paul Gray

[XXArmsOfNukesxX]

r.i.p paul gray you will be missed dearly

[kreatoromar]

@DDzSlaytanic thats just weak , not liking them cuz you didnt like their new stuff , i love their new stuff , i love all slipknot`s stuff , its slipknot period.

[deadwhoreatmyfeet]

his voice sounds like kurt here

[gingercuscus]

alguien me puede explicar un poco lo que dice en español? ^^

[BigJ0]

@gingercuscus estaba explicando que la cancion "Left Behind" fue inspirada por un tiempo cuando Corey era vagabundo sin casa, vivia bajo un puente con amigos, pero conocio tanta gente que lo impacto y hasta este dia, sabe que muchas personas que el realmente extraña y desea mantener en su vida, no podran estar ahi con el. el tuvo que abandonar a gente que fueron gran parte de su pasado y le cala saberlo.

[ecalzo]

great corey........respect for all of you mate....i like slipknot from the beginning.....you're getting even better.........come in italy soon....

[KillerOsterGer]

He was homeless but now he is one of the richest motherfuckers

i love it was corey says

IAM FAT

IAM UGLY

AND IAM PROUD

SO FUCK YOU!!! :D

maggots 4 ever ;)

[shitkicker01]

pussy.

[scaryevil16]

corey had really bad past and still ppl call him shit. thats so disrespectful. MAGGOT FOR LIFE

[LarsLarzaSlipknot]

I totally agree! It's a really good song and it means something!<3

[californication1593]

left behind is the shit.

[codemaster133]

thank you all people for looking beyond the mask and seeing a person i respect all of you for that , what an incredible man. thanks for comment votes too Slipknot

Supporting

Life

In

Poverty

Knowing

No one's

Opposition

Takes you down!!!!

[lightzoomi]

dude...... he is now one of my biggest idols

[Dethklok1122]

poor corey wait WAIT DID HE JSUT SAY UNDER A BRIDGE I SAW SOME PEOPLE UNDER A BRIDGE IN DIMOISE SOUTH OMG OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG THAT WAS HIM WTF I SAW HIM OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG WTF WTF WTF WTF but i fell really bad for him

[Scarlett6Sic6]

dude this is the reason why i worship slipknot and why i think that corey is really one of the best people that ever lived..i know wht he's gone through growing up without a dad, my dad abandoned me when i was 6 so, i had to go through similar shit and i understand corey so well...Maggot for ever dude

[mallorymetal]

i feel so bad.

but you know what they say

"rags to riches!" he is sooo

gifted. he was born with an amazing

voice!!!!!::::)))))

[RudeBoyKristTruitt]

they sold out. plain and simple.

[PrettyLittleMaggot]

@RudeBoyKristTruitt how? O___O

[Goth3m3]

@RudeBoyKristTruitt I don't think so, they still have the same aggression, It's just expressed differently.

[mattnstarbird]

slipknot fucking rocks and they help me through my times and trials am a maggot forever fuck off

[prettyrikki18]

Music is so much better when people have been through rough shit. slipknot fan til death!!!! <3 Corey Taylor

[codemaster133]

this why they are more than just another band. And i dont understand why people judge them the way they do without getting to know them. I guess people really do equal shit.

[REstudios13]

@codemaster133 you see, i always been thinking about that. I understand slipknot feelings and i apreciate it. There like some kind of angel and demon merge together making a new god or something like that....

[mwstakyle]

@codemaster133 too true man, they put true aggression into their music, they made me realise that technical ability at your instrument doesn't mean a goddamn thing without passion, noone could replace these guys.

[TomLobbanify]

@codemaster133 .. Yeah all these fagg kids.. growing up in a rich california house.. massive house all they could want.. getting put into the top before they even do jack to get there

[jaxnfender27]

@TomLobbanify agreed. Corey is saying from the bottom of his heart that he misses his homeless friends, and to me, it makes me think he'd do anything to see them again.

[TheKilljoy199]

@codemaster133 yup yup yuppity yup yup yup of course people always = shit cuz they dont know wtf there messin with thats y

[ChrisRoughleyTV]

@codemaster133 i agree, totally :)

[shariotoflove]

@codemaster133 ive listened to slipknot ever since getting a rare listen to MFKR and I probably know more than you about their lives....and i still think they suck right now.

[sazer123]

Id be honoured to be homeless to be living with Corey

[Sneadster]

idk if yall know this, but he "lived" in about 24 states before his 12th birthday. his moms boyfriend thought there were smurfs living under the carpet. thats what kind of worls he was raised in. God bless him, he (in my opinion) is the American dream. millions of us directly relate to his feelings. i've tatt'd myself as a maggot in corey's honor. think deep and love eachother, help eachother, and make the best of what you have. ...Amen.

[dkpierre25]

Corey Taylor was born in waterloo, Iowa. Having barely any money, he and his sister were raised by their mother in poverty. Taylor's father left prior to his birth and, at the request of Taylor's mother, remained absent throughout most of his life. When he was a teenager he was homeless - he lived on the streets and slept under a bridge, the Slipknot song "Left Behind" is based on this period of his life.
