This is how good this song is.. 11 years ago there was this tv Channel kinda like mtv that just played music videos.. this music video was playing on repeat for like an hour.. fast forward to 2021, I’m still listening to it
i was into this song at 15, years before reeve was known for anything more than this after my dad saw them live and was like " this band is soo sick" not to toote my own horn but yea, he's so fine.
I fell in love with this band about three-four years ago when I saw them at a free concert in my hometown. More people need to know about them. Their music is sexy as hell.
See this is how you make a music video. There's no interrupting the song to help the story, the song tells the story. And when given those instrumental moments, the video uses both the tone of the instruments and it's silent visuals to explain what's going on.
@nothingsafe84 Thanks for having such an interest in it's creation! The idea actually came out of nowhere really. I was stopped at a light at the end of an off ramp and just as the opening guitar riff began on my car stereo, 2 red balloons floated up from the park across the street. They wove; almost danced with each other to the rhythm of the guitar and I thought, "That's how it starts!" Basically, the balloons were the first image. The story came in time, along with all of the characters. :)
This song is so AMAZING! It seems like the perfect song for one of those Rock Band/Guitar Hero games, too. I'd totally buy that game if this was on it!
they are soo good live saw them when i went to watch ATHLETE reeve was on stage and his sweat like flew on me ha ha meet them after the show reeve was a really cool guy talked to him for a good long time
wow this guy really impresses me, he reminds me a lot of jeff buckley, i wonder if he inspires himself of him, for me it seems like:) and it's so good!!
Love them!!! Instant fan!!! This is the most talented group of True Artist I have heard since EC, Led Zeppelin, mix in some of the Gr8est Blues Musicians! Their intensity, passion, and sheer talent!!! HOT! They had me on 1st video I saw! Made me drool. Then, I saw live version of Testify on UTube.and the first half of the song my jaw was on the floor, and way B4 the end I was WET!!! Their acoustic version of Testify is Hot too. I have told everyone I know about them and PREordered new CD
These guys are AWESOME! If I ever take a trip to the States, I definitely are going to a consert! Actually, Carney is the first something-in-music I became a fan of!
Oh my, I didn't know he is a musican and I wanted to give this song a try because of circus and then I wa slike "Jesus fuck, this is Dorian Gray!" This guy can do anything!
i love carney! reeve tweeted me yesterday and it totally made my week! he's such a cutie! him and lisa origliasso (one half of The Veronicas with her twin Jess) are such a cute couple!!!
So I have this problem. Not a problem, really. All this time, I was pretty sure Reeve was my favourite. Because he's so wonderful. I mean, I wouldn't really say no if he asked me to marry him. But lately, Zane is growing on me. How cute is he? How cool is he? Aw.. I love you guys, all of you. You rock =)
I love how it's the Death and Life of Mr. Green, not the other way around. I like the implication that this isn't the end for him. The opening of the director's cut has almost a Terry Gilliam-esque feel to it. Though I really do like the mystic, almost ethereal feel to it. I had no idea there even was a Directors Cut. Cheers for mentioning it!
had the pleasure of performing in NYC with Zane Carney, Aiden Moore and Jon Epcar of Carney...i just shared the video in the video responses. called hope hazy "funny how" enjoy :)
Saw them last night.. Oh my god, it was crazy. I actually really, really loved them! So much energy, especially for someone whos just starting. PLUS, Reeve is so sexy and has such a unique, beautiful voice. Loved you guys and looking forward to future stuff. ~Chloe, from Moncton
@nothingsafe84 Thank you so much for the kind words. I too like the director's cut better, but I may have a bit of a bias ;) lol I'm happy that this video does "it" for you. A lot of love went into it, and it's people like yourself that make me want to continue to create! Thank you, endlessly! :)
@radiapathetic Hey no prob at all,Thank YOU really. best thing to happen to me a few days before my soon to be birthday is having a down to earth person like yourself replying to me! It doesn't happen often.You're so humble! I feel like the 'chosen' one:) we need a riot, bring the cut version back ;p. it had a dark feel to it, the cape, those vocals. this does 'it' too of course:) I feel so much whenever I watch this video. smoke scene,so upclose! slow motion, out of body experience..I felt that
@radiapathetic oh hey! I just read about you and I'm...speechless. THE director, THE creative force behind this video replied to ME! Wow..Thank you! I feel so honoured..I love, absolutely love this video but I love it better with the director's cut one :) 3:40 onwards gives me an enormous high, I don't even need drugs! everything about this video is superb, but that part, you fantasically captured it! Keep doing what you love to do, I wish you the best! - Yasmin :)
