Order at: www.indiemerch.com/metalblader... As I Lay Dying video "Forever" from their album "Frail Words Collapse" iTunes: itunes.apple.com/us/album/frai...
How does this still melt my face after 15 years? a timeless classic. Man i miss those days. Its friday night in 2005, just got done skating with the boys. About to hop on runescape for the rest of the night while talking to my school crush on MySpace while blasting this song in the headset. Times will never be the same.
this video is perfect because it captures the passion and energy of the metalcore scene in the early 2000's, so i'm thankful i got to see these guys when they toured for the FWC album.
2000 were way better. Now the whole scene has turned into jazz. Everyone is counting odd time signatures and recording. Instead of letting the emotions go. Probably only the hardcore scene is still good. But the metal scene in general is just as technical as lifeless
@@ghostly6175 I know that he wasn't he is my favorite drummer I have been a knot fan or should I say maggot since the beginning. Slipknot is my favorite meal band. My all time favorite band tho is the one and only rush and Neil is my favorite drummer of all time
@@nancykrzemien8143 The drummer from August Burns Red and Texas In July are the only drummers of the new school that can hang with Mancino in metalcore.
"Forever" Forever your eyes will hold the memory I saw your heart as it overtook me we tried so hard to understand and reason but in that one moment I gave my heart away I gave my heart away in that moment I gave my heart away in that moment I gave my heart away (I gave my heart away) What perfect breath where my mind lay beside me and all I knew was what had overtaken me with no reason I am comforted by the inability to understand Forever your eyes will hold the memory I saw your heart as it overtook me we tried so hard to understand and reason but in that one moment I gave my heart away I gave my heart away in that moment I gave my heart away in that moment I gave my heart away (I gave my heart away) Forever your eyes will hold the memory Forever your eyes will hold the memory Forever your eyes will hold the memory When I wake from this dream Will your smile still open my heart and leave me transparent When I wake from this dream Will your smile still open my heart . .
LYRICS Forever your eyes will hold the memory I saw your heart as it overtook me We tried so hard to understand and reason But in that one moment I gave my heart away I gave my heart away In that moment I gave my heart away In that moment I gave my heart away With that perfect breath where my mind lay beside me And all I knew is what had overtaken me With no reason I am comforted by inability to understand Forever your eyes will hold the memory I saw your heart as it overtook me We tried so hard to understand and reason But in that one moment I gave my heart away I gave my heart away In that moment I gave my heart away In that moment I gave my heart away Forever your eyes will hold the memory Forever your eyes will hold the memory Forever your eyes will hold the memory When I wake from this dream Will your smile still open my heart And leave me transparent? When I wake from this dream Will your smile still open my heart And leave me transparent?
As much flak as this band is taking lately, I can't bring myself to abandon them. My life changed when this album was released. As I Lay Dying was the first real metal band I ever listened to; the first real metal band I had ever seen live. I am a metal head today because of this band. Thank you for being the genesis of the greatest years of my life.
People need to remember that this band is more than just Tim. Sure Tim was the front-man and the foundation, but Jordan is as much a foundation as anyone else (the drummer). Many bands have lost their frontman and continued to thrive. Sadly the circumstances surrounding Tim polluted things, but that does not make any song the band made any less great than it previously was in retrospect. Music is timeless. While Tim may have lost his way, he was only one cog in a much larger whole. It's disrespecting to the hard work everyone else put into the band and Tim's actions should not be allowed to taint who and what As I Lay Dying was and is. RIP. I hope Wovenwar at one point starts playing As I Lay Dying songs. Because they ARE As I Lay Dying, and they should have the right to play the material they worked so hard on with or without Tim.... they just lost a (huge) part of what made them, but not the only part. And, in many ways, not the most important part either.
Man, this song still gives me chills. My BIL was their bassist for a few years, and I loved going to their shows and feeling the sheer force of their music live. They literally introduced me to Killswitch and that was it for me. What a cool scene that was!
Dude, this band is so iconic, like I remember A LOT of their older material quite well, but I don't remember how or why? They must've been on the radio A LOT during the 00's
This takes me back to high school. Jamming with my bros on a Friday night after school just taking shit not knowing those are the days I’ll never experience again.
So...I was at this concert. It was fucking amazing. Saw them again later on with a set where Lower Definition opened up when they were getting traction. Fuck, time flew.
This is my favorite song of all Time. Had been for ten years running! Even with all the stuff going on with Tim and the band they will always be my favorite band!
Sounds as good today Nov 29 2017 as it did the first time I heard it back in '02 or '03 One of the best albums ever. Thank you for changing my life A.I.L.D., & Tim Lambesis!! I'm a 36yr old man and I'll be listening to this when I have grandchildren! Promise you that!
I did see that in a recent interview. Shame that he had to do something that stupid. I really liked AILD and now it seems like the rest of the band wants nothing to do with him now.
@@ToddlerEater I'm not religious but this song is definitely about Jesus. Christians view converting to Christianity as giving their heart away to their savior. This whole album is really religious. Tim just did a good job at making the lyrics open to interpretation though. I thought the religious subject of the lyrics on this album were blaringly obvious. Maybe you need to see a 4th grade English teacher
This was the first heavy band I got into (after skillet). I was about 12 years old and this was the first song I heard by them and was instantly hooked. These guys were my favorite band and still are 6 years later. I couldn't be happier knowing they hot back together.
Jake Bridges Who actually knows if they're done. Tim and Jordan haven't really said it was done. Although, I wouldn't doubt they'll be done with or at least different.
I’ll never forget the time some friends and I went to see some bands perform and as we walked in I look up on the stage and I said to myself “That’s Tim Lebesis!!!” Without even knowing they were going to be there. Awesome memory!!! 👍🏻
Story of my life- when I could still feel. There is no glory; no gold and bliss. Choose wisely and hang tight & true. Deception is an overlapping, alternate reality. I hope this means something to someone stuck in shadows 4 seemingly an eternity...
As I Lay Dying should be in the category as one of the greatest metal bands of all time... I mean don't get me wrong it will never happen because of what Tim did but they should be there. At least we can still appreciate the music they left us though
I honestly hate that I have to wait 5 seconds to watch an As I Lay Dying music video to watch an ad about ravioli.. RU-vid has gone to complete shit these past years!
I almost forgot about this song.....This brings back some crazy memories!!!! Now that I think about it, I have tons of memories linked to this entire album. Thank You AS I LAY DYING!!!!!
