I got back into playing guitar just to try to play his songs. When I started a year ago I could barely play them, now I can play and sing a lot of them. I recently just learned this one.
I love this video because nobody in the audience is talking at all. It just dead silent. God I wish I lived in England to experience a quiet concert and to see Dallas play hometown glory live!!
This is so wonderfully chilling I don't even know how to cope. This song just lets my soul bleed out just enough to heal back up. Thank you so much!! And how freakin incredible is it that he wrote this at 17! My god! Im 17 now and have a hard time even writing down hat I have to do for the day. COMPLETELY IN LOVE!
He played this a little different back then. He use to use a pic and up'd the tempo a little more. As the years have gone by you can tell he's messed around with this song a little bit. Adding more licks to the guitar, and maturely emotionally through vocals. It's amazing what time will do to a song. Especially when you have unique talent like this man writing it.
This guys is simply awesome! He has a voice tht just carries so well. You Sir are a true singer/songwriter thank you for not giving up! This also show the world you don't need booming bass and funky dance moves and other crap to make great music. Just real talent needed.
This song will get me everytime. He makes pain sound so beautiful. I have been fortunate enough to see him live atleast 3 times over the years.....I must say that if Jesus could sing, I believe he would sound like Dallas.
And I will blame myself For holding on to what i hoped to keep you by my side I will blame myself If there's ever gonna be a beter line to express how you can feel about missing somebody i'm shore Dallas will make it.
The quality of this is amazing and its such a beautiful gig!! Plus I love that audience was so respectful and cheered at appropriate times and wasnt talking when he played. Thats the respect this man deserves. What a legendary artist he's making himself to be! Dallas is the man! Thanks for recording and uploading this for everyone! :)
I was at this too. Must be honest, shed a tear during this song. The whole night Dallas seemed totally humbled by the experience and when he mentioned it was the first song he ever really wrote and put it in context I was just like "WwwaahhhhhhHH" aka cried like a little girl. Dallas Green is a genius. Anyone else find it hilarious yet a little embarassing when someone shouted out "because he goes balls deep" when Dallas was explaining why his lighting guy was a legend? hahaha. bad.
just saw Dallas and the Colour last nite opening for Pink in St Paul, MN. The crowd put forth a lukewarm reception (but weren't rude and, understandably, they were there to see Ms Pink) but I soaked in every minute. He was mesmerizing and his band was tight like a tiger....
@breaknthebeat I 100% agree. Like Knives hasn't ever been a favourite of mine, i've always liked it but never a favourite. It was incredible, I just sat there and cried! haha
After hearing this i think dallas should go back to sometimes and remaster all of them, just the little things that he plays differently are just amazing.
hey thanks man! and i agree. our drummers drums are really bad though, and it was this guys almost first time recording a band. so everything is really raw. but thanks for the opinion!
Hey dude, I went to your site, I like it, but you need a better recording system. I recommend recording each instrument individually, and multiple mics for the drum set, and if you can't afford that, invest in an electric drum set. Also, try to mix it a little better, the drums need to be louder, and the voice not so overpowering. Sick song though!
YOUR IN A THEATRE DONT FUCKING INTERRUPT SOMEONE IN THE MIDDLE OF A SONG BY FUCKING CHEERING AND WOOPING THERE ARE CERTAIN PROCEDURES.. ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S DALLAS GREEN! WAIT UNTILL THE END
