So this is the version without Scooter Ward's vocals. Why it exists I'm not sure, though grateful nonetheless. This version may not be available for purchase at your time of viewing (or at all not sure yet).
Hey so this kinda blew up so, thank you for the new subscriptions. I can't make a community post so I'll just do this here. I'm gonna make another meme song, so what do you guys think: So Cold or Failure?
Coming from a huge breaking Benjamin fan I feel like dark before dawn had its own kinda unique riffs but because some of their songs are soft in that album and not a lot of their songs are this one sounds similar but I mean I kinda agree I still think it’s it’s own unique thing tho I feel like every album Ben is still Ben when many artists change up every album
I will always be so grateful that I got this version. I remember when this song was being released, I was waiting at my laptop constantly hitting refresh on iTunes to buy it the second it released. Well, it did. And I was confused at first because for some reason, all I heard was Ben's voice. I listened to it over and over trying to hear Scooter's voice, and I couldnt. Then the next day when they were promoting it I realized somehow iTunes messed up and sold me this version, which they seem to have corrected that error now. But this version is so much better!
Love it obviously. Breaking Benjamin is my all time favorite band. That said, I gotta take the version with Scooter. I am a big fan of Cold, and hearing my favorite singer collab with Scooter is an early christmas present. Their voices combined give the song that extra edge.
Thank you sir, I can't agree with u more... I live Breaking Ben, but no offense to anyone- but in this version, the parts the scooter had that were replaced with more Ben, sound like rough draft audio, like a little scratchy. Basically like peices from a rough draft version crafted into the final version of the song that has scooter In it.... Can't think of a better pair that I've heard with either band... Maybe the song with scooter and the female singer (so sorry can't remember the name of top!) Called "you got away" but cold is my all time fav. Band ever. Just not diggin the new new stuff as much as I was anticipating to sadly. Win some ya lose some but Ben and Scoot is a fkn a right doggy winning team. Don't agree, disbeleive it, or disagree ?? Go get ya ears excavated then immediately go find a $200 set of over the ear headphones, and listen to 13 ways to bleed on stage and yr of the 🕷️. I'm resting my case.... One last thing, never said it was better than Ben! Two different types of songwriters that make altho sometimes few similarities, very different genres so I can't just say ones better then the other. I think if everyone would agree to that statement, I'd sleep easier tonight.
@@rafogameplays3321 ain't no way! Dont get me wrong Adam has a great voice but it's not on the level of Ben's. Ben's voice is just so warm and smooth and crystal clear and rough and gritty and epic all at the same time
@@brentmarttinen9690 Adam's voice is so more powerful, he can sing whatever he wants and it'll sound good. I just imagine Ben's voice for the music gender he actually sings, while Adam has sang Rock, Hard Rock, Metal songs, acoustic (with raspy and not raspy, he uses two different techniques of singing, something that Ben hasn't do yet). Ben can growl but Adam can scream (false chord/fry scream), something like Chester Bennington's screams. I love both of them soooo much but Adam's voice is in another level
@@rafogameplays3321 I love Adam's voice, but he needs production. Doubt me? Go look up Saint Asonia's Octane Unleaded performance. Adam is sadly not great live. Adam thrives with production and multiple takes. Ben, on the other hand, is great live. I have seen them both in concert and can tell you from experience. None of them compare to Chris Cornell though...RIP
@@RootedInReality Well, Ben since 2015 is not so good live, he can't take control of his voice and sounds bad. Even when BB invited Adam to sing their songs live, Adam dominated the show, only Aaron saves the concert with his melodies. This year Ben enhanced his voice and sounds great. Adam has like 2 years without singing live, give him time and you'll hear his real voice. Also, Adam is fat now, he gets out of breath constantly jajaja xD
I'm torn (in two). I like the duet version, but Ben's vocals blend with Scooters so much, I have a hard time telling their voices apart. They do sound great together, but I love Ben's vocals alone as well. At this point I don't know which version is my favorite.
Those words.... That is some serious lyric writing!I love listening to the soft, melodic acustic versions of these dark loud songs. Both versions are great. Thank you for putting out such awesome music for us! 🎤🎼
I wonder if this version is what they practiced and recorded first so that when Scooter came to do the song with them he had something already to work with.
Yeah for some reason when I preordered the album, this was the version that automatically downloaded and when I heard it I only heard Ben and thought it was odd. Then I go watch the music video and it’s completely different. So I deleted and re-downloaded it and it was the version with Scooter. Pretty odd
Daniel Yarnell I actually prefer this version in comparison. I was really upset when I noticed Apple Music changed it to the version with Scooter Ward and does not offer one w/o him
@@Antman324 Well you have to understand that this version was most likely never meant to be out in the public. You can hear it in the quality of the track itself, its great but still.. raw, in a way. The songs were made with the intent to have the guest singers, apart from the few songs in the album that don't have any and are just his vocals, so it makes sense that Apple Music, Google Music, Spotify or really any music place are more than likely going to sell the version that is meant to be out there. RU-vid is different since its not selling anything and these are user posted. Same with any other video or file sharing place out there. Personally I think both versions are fantastic.
@@Refrigeraptor thank you sir for pointing out that not so final draft audio in this version... I'm tryin to rally up the cold army troops and win the debate!
Imagine if a paranormal mystery show had four seasons. The first three seasons has the original version with Scooter as the theme. But in the season three finale, one of two lead detectives dies. And the final season has this version as the theme. Would be pretty cool and chilling.
Everyone's saying but so will I, This is seriously tear jerking. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Godammnit, can Breaking Benjamin ever fail? 😭❤This version is just as beautiful if not better. 😭😭😭😭😭
It's weird. I noticed that It was ONLY ben's voice the Friday it was released on iTunes, and now going back to and listening to it, it both Ben and Scooter. Might of just been a mistake on their part. either way, I'm glad to have both versions.
OMG I though I was going crazy! I knew I couldn't hear Scooter's voice on that! But now I don't have the Ben Only version in my iTunes, it converted to the correct one. I want the Ben Only version! I love Ben!
this song is beautiful in so many ways...but the best part of it? the piano down there in the lower register; that's nearly at A-sharp 0. You don't hear that very much in rock, in particular.
I hear them call the tide..Rev21:1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away (vanished), and THERE IS NO LONGER ANY SEA".. I see the last divide...Matt25:31 When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd DIVIDETH his sheep from the goats:33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left." the sun will fade and all we are is all we made"...2Pet3:10 " But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will vanish with a [mighty and thunderous] roar, and the [material] elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth AND THE WORKS THAT ARE ON IT will be burned up"
Hope that everyone here is okay. Please be safe and remember that people care about you, even if it may not feel like it sometimes. If you are feeling troubled, maybe professional help is the answer, or talking to a trusted friend about what you are going through. Wish you all the best.
Unfortunately it has been pulled from all digital stores. The only way you'd be able to get it is from somebody who has the file. Alternatively you can use a a RU-vid to MP3 converter to get a decent quality rip.
I sat here listening through the song twice 10 seconds at a time back to back with the version with scooter, and it just sounds like the down tones of scooters voice are lower, but sounds almost identical. Did you just adjust the sound files?
Nope. It was released like this on two platforms but then after about 12 hours, it was fixed and replaced with the only version you can buy. I didn't edit the vocals.
Sorta? I did an update video but the logistics of releasing what I have to a public streaming platform is realistically going to be a copyright battle that I will more than likely lose.
@@TheReviewKing909 dang bro. Problems? If you knew scripture, it'd be clear as day... Are you doing ok? I'll listen if you need to talk. I know life is ... rough here lately. St. Joshua lovingly at your service. I've lost 4 to suicide, I don't ever want to lose another human being to darkness and evil. Just asking. Not trying to probe.
@whtstr2133 Na I'm good. Currently readung the Bible. Wanna point me in a directiin if scripture? Btw its just the story I hear when I listen to the song.
@@TheReviewKing909 well...I was asked tonight to read Galatians, specifically because I quoted the fruits of the Spirit. Care to join me? It's a good book. I also like the Timothy books and Romans keeps popping up in my head...it's all good. But for the topic at hand, the John books are essential, gospel and the 3 letter books explain the Love of God in distinct clarity. Just to be clear though, without God's guidance, none of Scripture is understandable. God is the cypher of the Bible. Trust in Jesus Christ to lead you to understanding, and pray for any parts you have any issues with. And, DON'T trust anyone else, even me, let scripture back me up. If it isn't the word of God, it isn't worth anything. Have hope beyond this life, not in this life. Good luck and God's grace upon you, dearest bro/sis. Love ya as Jesus Christ loves me.
Footlong coney? Most Americans don't know what that means but I do being from NY but I reside in the mid Atlantic now. Unfortunately we don't have that down here but if I could we would go enjoy it together because there is nothing comparable
@@themusicaldawg I gotcha👍. It's funny to me too because it is a real thing and something I used to enjoy as a kid in NY and that is what I thought you were talking about 😆. Nice video by the way. Always much love for the works of Benji and crew. I'm sure you heard his version of Iris with Diamante. I thought it was great
IMO this is a an EXCELLENT example of why my guy SCOOTER WARD is next level and severely under rated. Not a big fan of the most recent album but everything else is just raw emotion with bleed, then 🕷️ and then pain! My fav albums of all time. n2m TK&TS was super dope and unique. One of the 2 latest albums were decent, with the cover song "dream on" that was pretty on pt for me. But the latest newest release I just haven't felt that same connection with. The sounds, the lyrics, they just don't infiltrate the souls of the cold army like the older stuff. But artists grow and are entitled to change and create however and whenever they like, I'm happy they don't try to repeat ANYTHING like putting it on re-run or remix old stuff just to sell out. ANYWAYS my main point is the duet is as 🔥 as it gets, if anyone says the (w/o scooter version) is better....?? I mean shit- we can squab it out?
It was on amazon music too for a little bit and I downloaded that one without knowing. But now I have both versions on my phone and I re-labeled the mp3 file of the one with just Ben's vocals to "Far Away (Alternate Vocal Version)" and listed it as a bonus track 11 XD
Is this version available to buy anywhere? Clearly it was at some point...but not sure where to look as it seems most platforms have "corrected" the error...but man I love this version.
Tha Deakon don’t think you realize Breaking Benjamin is recognized as the biggest modern rock band on earth. Your “cold owns Breaking Benjamin” isn’t very valid.
Tha Deakon Cold doesn’t have 6 Platnium albums like what?!?!? You can’t base success on it? Then what can you base it on? Scooters Voice is second tier to Bens... like I can’t believe we’re even discussing this.. I never said Cold was bad, I like a couple of their songs but this is just laughable I’m sorry.. Try to sing like scooter and I’ll bet it’ll be a lot closer than if you try to imitate Ben.. his vocal range is about x2 as large as 🛴 sorry try again. Year of the Spider was a good album and I’m sure “poser” fans know about that album too lol.. But yeah Ember takes a shit on that albums chest and that’s saying something.
