i see people saying "his voice is awful!" or "he's NOT a singer." i'm just gonna clear it up, its not supposed to sound pretty. its SUPPOSED to sound this aggressive. i personally think this song is beautiful with the powerful emotional screaming.
Agreed. This and "The Medic" remind me of a brief relationship I was in 4 years ago where I was the one broken in the end and he perfectly captured how I felt on the inside. Especially the refrain in this song. I need to see them live again in the worst way.
Idk but I can relate to this song a lot. "So why don't you love me back" that's my question to the whole world, and all the people who bully and hurt me. I hate this life. I want to end it.
lyrics: i wrote you a letter asked your best friend to send it but took to the sea before you could have read it retreated to snowcapped waters of the unknown extracted my heart while it was till beating and glowing red and i swear that sweat would envelope your arms if you broke down and held it chorus: i swear i'm a good man, so why don't you love me back? instead of twisting up words you just sat there in silence in wind burnt homes sighing rays from a sunset and all i could hear was the sound of the wasps nest my head made a home for the hum of insects but my hands shake and shudder at the mention of half hearted reasons we'll only be friends chorus: i swear i'm a good man, so why dont you love me back?
This breaks my guts apart. His yearning & anguish. Foxing deserves more praise. Music isn't a dollar, it's a feeling free like the notes floating into my ears
Honestly yeah I hope I don't go through a breakup anytime soon cuz I know i will immediately turn to this and I know it'll fuck me up like a few other songs have in the past.
My dogs name is Rory, he is close to dying as I am writing this, he is 11 and a half years old. I think we just went for the very last walk to the park. He didn't eat his food tonight and now he is in bed breathing shallow. I have to go to work tomorrow and I am going to be worried all day that he has died. My other dog, Jackson who is half his age will be all alone and it's breaking my heart. I don't want to get another dog, as much as love them, I can't have them forever. I don't own a home and renting with dogs is so hard. Maybe if I ever own a home I will get dogs again but I won't bet it will happen. Rory is the 2nd dog I had, the first being his father, Dexter who died young and when he died it was the saddest I have ever been, his death has shaped my mental health dramatically and was the start of a spiral of severe depression and honestly if I didn't have young Rory to care for at that time I think I might have killed myself. Now the dog that saved my life is dying on my bed and this song comes on. It's been a favourite of mine for years and I am leaving this message to myself here if I ever want to read what I wrote and remember how i felt in this important moment. It's Thursday 4th of May 2023. If Rory doesn't eat again he's not going to make it past Sunday. Jackson was extremely energetic when I came home from tonight, now I think it's because he's scared of losing Rory, I think he was trying to tell me he was sick. I really hope Rory goes peacefully and I am strong enough to take him to the vet to be put to sleep at the right time. Rory is the most well behaved dog I have ever known, he is the definition of "good boy" he also has the shiniest black coat I have ever seen and now as he is very old and weak, he is so soft and a great listener. Without question Rory was my best friend for a very long time and I know I am going to miss him for the rest of my life but I hope I can look back and feel that I gave him a good life and made him feel loved and even when he is gone I will remember the happy moments we shared, like going to play Frisbee, the way he loved to hog a soccer ball and not let you take it away from him, walking on the beach, playing with Dexter when he was a little puppy and playing with Jackson as an old dog, and how he hasnt needed a leash since he was very young because he always listened to me. A memory I have of Rory that always makes me smile is that he used be a real escape artist when he was little and he would go to the public pool and go for a swim before he was picked up by the dog pound. I think that happened about three times. Then he got desexed and he matured alot and grew up to be the best dog I ever known, he was never really fast but he always put in a lot of effort and pushed his limits which makes that walk today to the park breaks my heart seeing him walking at crawling pace 20 meters behind me having to stop again and again so he could catch up. I hope I can focus on the good times because there were a lot of them. I think I am much stronger mentally than I was 10 years ago and I will be able to carry on but it will be tough. I hope I focus on the future and Jackson will be okay. I love both my dogs like children. Jackson is licking my hand right now, he is very affectionate full of energy, very handsome and lovable, the reason I got Jackson was because I was slipping into a dark place mentally and I knew I needed something in my life to give me meaning but now I don't need him for that, I have gotten better so I guess my dogs have really helped me get through and over some really dark times. My dogs have been my little furry heroes, they have saved my life and I will keep them in my heart forever. Rory, I love you so much.
Saw them last night with Manchester Orchestra. Hands down the best opening band I've seen yet. Very entertaining performance. I was super impressed. Can't wait to see how far they go.
Today, after almost 7 years of loving one man, who I met almost everyday in the train, he first time said Good Morning to me. Right when I was listening to this song. I have a fiance now and for 3 months will marry him, but still have something to that man. I don't know why.
Im a happiest wife ever. Mu husband is cute and full of love for me. And I love him so much. This is the best love story I could imagine. The wedding day was the greatest day in my whole life. And I try to forget that other man, what is easy in these quarantine times. Hope to not meet him again.
@@mollyt.423 awwww thank you so much that mean a lot for me! Yes, we are so happy together, I couldn't imagine better love! We are togethee now for 7 years and it seems like we love each other more every day. Sending you kisses and hugs! :* :* :)
This is really good. Everything from the pronounced voice and trumpets, to the dramatic guitars and violins, to the strong and strangely rhythmic drums... I fucking love it. 11/10 would bang if music was human.
I love how the acoustic instruments are in one room and the electric instruments are in the other. My brother is a freelance film-hand and he actually worked on this video.
I wrote you a letter Asked your best friend to send it But took to the sea before you could have read it Retreated to snowcapped waters of the unknown Extracted my heart while it was still beating But glowing and red And I swear that sweat would Envelop your arms if you broke down and held it I swear I'm a good man I swear I'm a good man So why don't you love me back? Why don't you love me back? Instead of twisting up words you just sat there in silence In wind burnt homes sighing rays from a sunset And all I could hear was the sound of the wasp nest My head made a home for the hum of the insects But my hands shake and shudder at the mention Of half hearted reasons why we'll only be friends I swear I'm a good man I swear I'm a good man So why don't you love me back? So why don't you love me back? So why don't you love me back? So why don't you love me back? So why don't you love me back? So why don't you love me back?
+norovera Have you tried just going into a room by yourself and yelling? Put as much emotion into what you are saying as you can. Everyone can do it but everyone will sound different.
there are proper ways to do that type of scream/yelling using an immense amount of glotteral compression. in the case of this song he is just yelling. A band that uses the scream/singing in a more technical way would probably be Bring Me The Horizon or Avenged Sevenfold since they were both taught how to sing/scream by professionals. it is one of the hardest singing techniques and most the of the guys that do this technique are actually years into practice and have been strong vocal chords or have been classically trained first.
+norovera You need to listen to a ton of emo and try to sing along to the point where you can and to the point where you know the lyrics to some songs without even thinking... i suggest starting with the acoustic album from Saves the Day "Sorry I'm Leaving" -- it's a decent place to start.
i’m so sad i miss this song so much and it brings back such a painful time in my life... god i don’t know how to think or what to feel or anything at all.
They are amazing live, I saw them in London at Bush Hall as co-headliner with Pianos Become The Teeth and they were very good. They all convey their emotions so well through their instruments, every song is just one giant emotional wave. I love Foxing.
I thought the noise in the background was my stomach and I got super self concious and paused the video, that confused me when I coudldn't hear it after xD
Y’know, it’s a stretch but I think the reason why it’s a wolf (fox?) and three pigs in the video is because it’s a reference to the three little pigs. The big bad wolf hurt them first but now the three little pigs are hurting him.
Foxing still continues. I think they have a new album out very soon now and I did get into the one before the last (sorry I am drunk) It was called Nearer My God. Foxing got a legacy and I really got into the beginning of Dealer.
