Girl, yes. I was an obsessed teenager when I predominantly listened to this. I'm now freaking TWENTY NINE YEARS OLD SOMEHOW but this literally like, throws me back into my adolescence 😂
Heard this song when it was released, and instantly fell in love. Here I am, now at age 31 returning for another listen. For all you new listeners, you’ll come back here one day at some point in your life, time to time when you remember. Such a great track.
Did the bright blue hair and I got eye liner tips from my chemical romance not give it away that your not dw you'll grow out of it at some points tip for you don't throw away your cloths or. Boot's that shit is worth money
Dude, I had no idea that intro part existed until a few years ago! I wasn't into them when I was in highschool so I missed a lot of good music at the time
My daughters loved AFI when they were in High School. So my husband got tickets for us all to go. Had fun. Now my daughters 32, 30 and 26 still go to the AFI concerts !
Totally and I love the intro but I got to say one weird thing about it The melody of it especially the "oh oh oh" part, it kind of reminds me of this one old 90s Backstreet Boys song so it kind of sounds like AFI is the Gothic Backstreet Boys in the intro
I never had an emo phase, I was alittle older when it all happened. I listened to these songs over the years in radio mostly and thought they were ok. Now at 42, I have had the opportunity to pay closer attention and now I love then. I have been binging through AFI's discography all week.
I'm so weird I shuda grown outta all of this but they and bands from this time n genre are in my most regularly played playlist.....no wonder I'm in denial about making it to 40.yrs old....My mentality thinks it's 26/27 😂😂😂
@@mrs.blacksunshine SO WEIRD to think what our parents were listening to compared to us. Like how wildly different is is the Dirty Dancing soundtrack or Genesis to AFI and Coheed and Cambria!?
obsessively listened to this song & watched this music video as a 15 year old girl. really introduced me into this scene. now here i am, 27 and still mesmerized by this song, his vocals esp at the end, the bass/drums, video, everything. good songs & good bands are timeless
gabokillerx same i was 5 when i my older sister introduced them to me since then I've memorized all of their songs that are o in this channel (i am 15 now)
That’s some really hard stuff to do, it takes a lot of practice to get to that point where you can do choreography like that and still play in tempo and without messing up. He’s very talented, one of my crushes lol👉👈
New fan here, and although I'm 15 years late, Miss Murder holds a special place in my heart. This is the first song that introduced me to AFI as well as the rest of their discography, and I'm thankful for the amazing music they have created. Happy 15th birthday, Decemberunderground! You will always be my favorite AFI album! 🐇🐇🐇
Dude I wish I could take you back in time back when this played on mtv. The lifestyle was so different back then! I am 27 and was in 7th grade I think when this really took off and I would give anything to go back ;) big adios shoes with skinny jeans with studded belts long hair with a black bandana and kr3w shirts 🤣🤘 people were different back then man the generation was the shit! I'm sorry you have to grow up teen years in this generation! Salute to you though 🤘 you're 1 in a million!
The Queen is dead, long live The King, nothing ever dies since we got the internet with lightspeed back to the past, even Hippies are still around and Jazz, oldschool Jazz fans@@JCElzinga
Lyrics: This is what I brought you this you can keep, this is what I brought you may forget me. I promised to depart just promise one thing, kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep. This is what I brought you this you can keep, this is what I brought you may forget me. I promise you my heart just promise to sing, kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep. Ohoh ohoh ohoh ohoh ohoh kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep (Ohoh ohoh) This is what I thought, I thought you need me, this is what I thought so think me naive, I promise you a heart you promised to keep, kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep. kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep. Hey, miss murder, can I Hey, miss murder, can I Make beauty stay if I Take my life? With just a look they shook And heavens bowed before him Simply a look can break your heart The stars that pierce the sky He left them all behind We're left to wonder why He left us all behind Hey, miss murder, can I Hey, miss murder, can I Make beauty stay if I Take my life? Dreams of his crash won't pass Oh, how they all adored him Beauty will last when spiraled down The stars that mystify He left them all behind And how his children cry He left us all behind Hey, miss murder, can I Hey, miss murder, can I Make beauty stay if I Take my life? What's the hook, the twist within this verbose mystery? I would gladly bet my life upon it. That the ghost you love, your ray of light will fizzle out Without hope Hope We're the empty set just floating through wrapped, in skin Ever searching for what we were promised Reaching for that golden ring we'd never let go Who would ever let us put our filthy hands upon it? Hey, miss murder, can I Hey, miss murder, can I Make beauty stay if I Take my life? Hey, miss murder, can I Hey, miss murder, can I Make beauty stay if I Take my life?
I know how you feel, I heard this on the radio today and I'm like, wow, I haven't heard this in a while. Seems like just yesterday. So I looked it up in youtube, and now I feel even older, Lol.
@@jimtheedcguy4313 Look up their song called Pillars, the live version. Wooo, it's chilling. Enjoy brother, youtube holds all this sweet vibrations, just have to look around. Cheers.
Everyone goes through the occasional phase. I, myself went through a Goth phase about halfway through high school. I've learned 2 lessons from it: 1) These phases can (and usually do) help you discover who you are, over time. 2) They tend to open your mind to new ideas, cultures, art, etc. - essentially broadening your perspective. In my case, it helped me exhume a part of myself that I concealed & buried when I was about 6 or 7 because I was very different from Everyone around me and knew I'd become a target if I didn't "blend in".
I was a goth all through my middle and high school years. I didn't wear all black, but my mentality was one in the same, so I got lumped with them. it taught me to never turn someone away cuz their different, and to appreciate what I had, because there are people with less. and the gothic kids already thought we had so little as is. Then those weird ass Emo kids came in and destroyed Gothic as a group. Now everyone things Goth and Emo are similar. Goths are fixated on death because it comes for us all, we were usually kids who experienced adult situations as children, or who were forced to grow up early. Emo is just a phase kids go through when they realize they ugly and love isn't blind and wanna kill themselves over it. Nothing like a Goth.
@@erikurizita6702 That's one of the reasons I ultimately rejected labels unless it serves some purpose. Trend followers present a poor image out of their need for attention, while those of us who simply embrace who we are have to waste time & energy combatting any association with that sort. I almost feel sorry for them bc they still haven't figured out who they are, and are desperately grasping for identity & validation. If it weren't for the fact that I spent so long hiding those parts of myself, I doubt I'd feel any empathy for the majority of them.
I was a hippie. A Hip hopper.. Gothchick, Alterna-angsty-Courtney Love, Club kid at Limelight n Tunnel,. All those eras have a part of my soul. You can be all those parts.. Why do u worry about labels? Free ur mind and don't judge fit in to a certain label. I have this wonderful freedom of not giving any fucks what anyone thinks of me. Once you stop defining urself and others it's beautiful. I am all these personalities, and still me.. I love all these different music genres, the fact that I feel like Joan Jett one day and Stevie Nicks the next and on and on . No one can put me in a category and I love that.
@@erikurizita6702 Have you watched the South Park episode about Hot Topic and the Vampire kids? Also plenty of emo kids went through fucked up shit... wasn't just a phase for some IMO
This song came it when I was 8 yrs old. My sister was going through her emo phase, and introduced me to this song. My mom hated it, but we still listened to it every day
god i wish i was born 10 years earlier to enjoy the early 2000s better. To this day my best memories are the songs, games, tv stuff, internet, social media from that era...
You missed out on the Golden Era my guy. Video games, TV shows, everyone wasn't glued to their phones. You were eager to get home and chat with people in chatrooms. I graduated highschool in '04. Lits of great stuff!!!

i was born in 2006. I look like them right now lol i got the emo haircut, i havent worn a color other than black and blood red in literal years, and am super fuckin obssessed with this music
god I wish I could go BACK, 37 now, but MAN were THOSE the years, mid 2000's, and so much more HEALTH and ENERGY and my old CAR back then too! Fresh out of high school and FLY lol.
@@DeadSmoke813 and yet you obviously went though the comments enough to find this one, read it, and reply, all presumably while letting this play in the background
Memories bros, goin to hang with different friends, going from party’s to the store to get food with friends just living being young, now we are older wtf
I turned 30 this year, but I still belted out, 3:34 like I'm 14 years old with high school in the morning. I'm glad this kind of music is starting to come back around now, there was a decade of pop drowning out power, chords and making everything sound so generic, reused, and tired. I know everyone nowadays says this, but God I am happy to be a 90s kid.
I miss 2006 and being an emo 13 year-old. I remember getting all sad about dumb stuff and now I'm like, damn I wish my only problems were homework, friend drama, and whether a boy likes me. Now I'm struggling so much that I may need a second job. The irony is that I'm probably going to apply to be a manager at my local Hot Topic
No idea what any of these comments mean and to Google it would be like Googling, "how many genders are there" What I do know is that this song rocks the shit and it gets me pumped on the treadmill.
The sad part is half these people only know this song and album. They don't even realize how legendary Black Sails and The Art Of Drowning were during a time when punk was pretty stale.
All these years later, and Davey’s look is still fucking awesome. Idgaf. I’ll die on that hill. Always thought his style during this time was sick af. The guitarist’s hair was dope too, but Davey’s is peak emo.
I played that whole album on repeat. Too many people complained that it wasn't like or as good as Sing the Sorrow, but then they probably never listened to any of their older stuff and noticed how much they change with each album.
The Answer That through Shut Your Mouth era was just straight in your face hardcore punk. Their style didn't start to shift until Jade Puget came into the fold. Their golden era to me was Black Sails, Art of Drowning, and the All Hallows EP. Sing the Sorrow was okay in its own right. It was different, but I gave them the benefit of the doubt. I mean, it was 2003. But, when Decemberunderground came out, they had completely lost touch with their roots and gone way too far into the pop side. That was kind of the beginning of the end of AFI for me. They haven't really put out a spectacular album since Sing the Sorrow.
In 2006 I was at my friends house and his Dad came home with a Nintendo Wii and Guitar Hero. Ended up playing the game for hours taking it in turns. That same the night, the very first time I played Miss Murder I got 100%! Couldn’t believe it because we both we’re pretty try bad at every other song. To this day it remains one of my greatest ever achievements.
never forget the time I helped him and his lady, at the time around the Hello Kitty store in San Fran, and after going around the store..my Manager asked me if I knew who that was... I didn't figure it out till he said something and my mouth dropped... he looked back and winked at me... I'll never forget..... love ya
I saw AFI in May of 1997 in Denver, Colorado at a festival at Red Rocks Amphitheatre when they were a hardcore punk band. They were definately trying to make a name for themselves at that time. I love the newer stuff just as well, "Sing the Sorrow" is a great album, it would be great to see them in concert again!
If you haven't already seen them live, you must see AFI live. They are STILL amazing! These guys are amazingly nice people IRL, too. I've been a fan for 15 years (since they released Sing the Sorrow when I was 13) and still love them to death. This song is still catchy even to this day. Through Our Bleeding We Are One!
They're coming to my town in September (if I'm not mistaken) I've been thinking about going but this definitely helped! Plus, smashing pumpkins are headlining...
I can't believe all anyone can comment about is how Emo this song is. I heard it and was blown away by the bass and vocals. The raw squeal of the guitar in an otherwise slickly produced sound. The vocalist throws himself wholeheartedly into the song, switching from catchy to whispers and then gutteral screaming. In the moment I heard the lyrics they seemed so deep and mythological. The video blends ancient egyptian imagery with a 1920s aesthetic thrown in with late thirties fanaticism. Wonderful. Labels were just stickers slapped on albums to move product. Ignore them. They said Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Nirvana and Stone Temple Pilots were grunge but these bands didn't sound alike. Linkin Park and Disturbed were miles apart and called Nu Metal. I could go on. Listen to music that moves you, labels be damned.
You, my dear friend are incredible! When I watch a music video to a song I like, I usually like taking in all the details that were put into it. And you're so right about the performance of this song. I just thought you should know since no one else told you that this is incredible!
Yes you are right!👍 And the Song is not really typically emo music! Just the styling from the Singer and Guitarist looks like emo-scene style. But the Song and the Musik Video is so much more!!
A friend of mind introduced me to this band when I was 12. I was definitely not allowed to listen to this kind of music, but this song I listened to on repeat every chance I got! Still a great song 18yrs later!!!

@@_c3a3m_88 the joke is that the guy wasn’t ready for it to jump from that song in a playlist to this one. It’s probably a reference to something he actually experienced with his friends
I have a playlist that technically this can go in. It is a song about murder in a way I have a playlist dedicated to songs about sex, drugs and murder. Needless to say it can be very random like that already. Just imagine when I cant find more song to fit in it. Its gonna be a cluster fuck
My husband introduced me to AFI back in 2007, when we first met: "There is a band you need to listen to, AFI, Sing the Sorrow, listen to that album!", and I did and realized I had seen this band on TV before (Miss Murder), the imagery in the video stayed with me. You know, back when TV used to be a thing for being introduced to new music lol. My husband just gushed about this band and that album (he actually went to the same clubs as these guys and hung around the same crowds, my husband said Davey was super nice when he met him). I think Decemberunderground and a couple of years later Crash Love were the two albums I would listen to a lot while writing my first novel. And drew some illustrations to their music as well. Good times ♥ I mean, I still do. Just recently started listening to their discography again on regular basis ♥ Just wish some of their vinyl pressings were more available. Dropping 500e on an album is just not something I can do right now. Hope you have a good year 2021! I am so happy you came across this song as well ♥
@@laurathena I love how you connected music with someone you truly love and admire and also to something which you're passionate about! Thank you for sharing this! I pray you stay safe and have a wonderful year ahead! Happy holidays! ☃️🎄😊
This used to be the only song on guitar hero I played when I was 10 years old. Now I'm 19 and I just figured out it was AFI. Yes I'm dumb. But now I'm a massive fan of AFI and can't wait for their new album.
A7X Fan foREVer ive listened to them since i was 5 so a good 7 years. i just figured out that the album this is off of its the "bunny album" but that its actually December underground.
A7X Fan foREVer that's kind of the same thing that happened with me haha. I knew who they were but only heard that one song, now I basically know every song. I love their super old punk albums and they're newer alternative hardcore stuff.
Good God! I'm terribly sorry about your sister's passing. No one deserves to be murdered, and I hope she is in a better place. God rest her soul and yours!
Thank you all. She was an incredible person who got mixed up with a terrible guy. Liz even had another one of her favorite bands play a tribute show for her just after the news broke of her passing. She died trying to protect our family. Don't be afraid to report any type of abuse whenever and wherever you see/hear it, no matter who is doing the abuse. This all could have been prevented had people been brave enough to report his abuse long before her death.
