Year 2024 checking in. Damn this song is still amazing, at 25 I’ve had it with soul searching, yet I still play this song at the crack of dawn heading towards the gym pondering if there’s still someone out there
Oh, his voice is so beautiful. It sends chills up and down my spine. Anberlin is one of my top favorite bands. Unlike most artists, their music has meaning.
I still listen to this album front to back over and over again. His voice is so intriguing and it really covers all aspects of rock/metal. Today I found this acoustic performance!
This acoustic version of Paperthin Hymn is just awesome, I just can't get enough! Anberlin rocks, one of the best band ever! I just wish I could see them live on one day...
A beautiful song made even more beautiful in acoustic. Another brilliant song by Anberlin whilst Stephen shows off some amazing vocal talent. Always get goosebumps hearing this song. So much emotion.
I don't think he's ugly really I don't judge him by something he has no control over anyway. He is the most beautiful song writer I have come across and I love him for that and for making my life brighter with his amazing gift
jeez i had no idea these guys were so old. i was expecting a taking back sunday looking band. nevertheless these guys are amazing and his voice is amazing
Paperthin hymn Тончайший1 гимн When your only friends are hotel rooms Когда твои единственные друзья - комнаты в отелях, Hands are distant lullabies Прикосновения рук - словно далёкие колыбельные If I could turn around Если бы я только мог повернуть всё вспять, I would tonight Я бы сделал это сегодня вечером These roads never seemed so long Эти дороги кажутся бесконечными Since your paper heart stopped beating С тех пор, когда твоё бумажное сердце замерло, Leaving me suddenly alone Внезапно оставив меня одного Will daybreak ever come? Рассвет настанет хоть когда-нибудь? Who's gonna call on Sunday morning? Кто позвонит тебе в воскресное утро? Who's gonna drive you home? Кто отвезёт тебя домой? I just want one more chance Я молю лишь об еще одном шансе To put my arms in fragile hands Взять тебя за хрупкие ладони I thought you said forever Я думал, что ты сказала мне «Навсегда» Over and over Снова и снова, A sleepless night becomes bitter oblivion И бессонная ночь дарует горечь блаженного забытья These thoughts run through my head Не могу перестать думать об этом, Over and over Снова и снова, Complaints of violins become my only friends Жалобный скрипки звук становится лучшим мне другом August evenings Августовские вечера Bring solemn warnings Предупреждали, To remember to kiss the ones you love Что важно не забыть поцеловать того, кого любишь, Goodnight Пожелав спокойной ночи You never know what temporal days may bring Ты никогда не предугадаешь, что принесёт следующий день Laugh, love, live free and sing Смейся, люби, живи свободно и пой, When life is in discord И даже когда у тебя тяжелые дни, Praise ye the lord Прославляй Бога
Anberlin is like a Christian version of Coldplay because of the some similarity of their way of singing and the songs as well. They're one of my inspirations to pursue singing.
hey that 12-string is an alveraz, those are such nice guitars, my dad has one and its really awesome, i personally dont like the neck much on that specific one as it hurts the muscles in my left hand somehow but it still plays and sounds great, and the body is amazing, but most companies make different neck shapes so its not a big deal, point is they are AWESOME guitars
@AI2RTIFICIAL I compare them as they are both bands, and like I said at the end it is only my opinion. However, they are both actually alternative rock bands so infact, they are not in a completely different genre but actually influenced by smaller sub genres. Also, since when did I say they were boring because they didn't use distorted guitars?
It was written mostly about the 29 year old sister of one of the guitarists that passed from cancer, but in the writing of Paperthin Hymns the lead singer also pulled from the experience of losing his grandmother.
@CRLD12 I love it when people say shit about how musicians look. I always reply by saying, "I didn't realize that when you listen to music, you listen with your eyes and not your ears."
Okay so he looks weird. Who cares? not this guy lol. He is my idol and is the most amazing singer I have ever heard. I don't think he's looking to impress with his looks. He wants people to hear his music and that's what he does, and he does a great job at it. I love you Anberlin!
if one day i make a tatto , will be a little part about this song > " You never know what temporal days may bring so laugh , love , live-free and sing ... "
have they down tuned their guitars for this song? just currious.... great song! anberlin is my fav band they r really awesome and theyre one of the best live bands i know of
I've never thought Stephen Christian was ugly. But anyway, looks shouldn't matter with music. Ben Gibbard doesn't look that great, but Death Cab for Cutie is an amazing band. So is Anberlin. :D
it doesnt matter one bit if he is the hottest man in the planet, and it doesnt matter if hes the ugliest. for all you people that cant see straight, he doesnt have the best looks in the world, but his voice and his lyrics make him the most talented a sexiest man in the planet. like this one guy said down in erlier comments, dont judge a book by its cover btw he isnt ugly at all on the outside
I think we should be careful when commenting on others looks. Beauty is really in the eye of the beholder. And if we all knew what other people thought of our looks, we probably wouldnt like it.
@atomicfriendo umm alrighty all i said was u dont need to leave a comment if u dont like it then just listen to something else. like really theres no need to call people names. just saying. from now on ill avoid public forums. and really wat have isaid that would make me seem im in second grade, ur the one who like blew up over a simple post.
He has, if you want to check some of their recent stuff. He looks better though I wouldn't call him attractive. I don't really care how he looks as long as he continues to sing majestically
It's pretty pathetic there's even a debate about his looks. Discuss the music. They're all very talented to be making music for a living. Looks has nothing to do with it.
