I’m 37 in 2024. This shit hits different knowing we will never see this type of sound come around again. Still goes hard as fuck. Turns out, it wasn’t a phase.
And idk my music influce has influenced my kid a lot, I was kinda anarchist and riot girl during this time too. They are now liking a lot of the same bands, and showing me new stuff that plays off my kinda stuff.
If you actually grew up with this… and are still here… I’m proud of you kid. 🖤 Edit: Thank you all for the love and acknowledgment, you all keep me going. 🖤
@@anniemayflower9187 “he got me into this kind of music” it’s started with taking back Sunday but he made me a fan of basically everyone on the fueled by ramen label. Also Just bc it was posted on RU-vid 12 years ago doesn’t mean it’s 12 years old. This song came out the year I graduated high school (2005) this song turns 20 next year
@@djsgametimeRIP KEVIN AND CURTIS. forreal long live the homies who never got to actually grow up with us. just think of them when u feel real happiness in life. i do this with my friends.
@@marionleigh7050 The Cure isn't Emo. I don't agree with the gatekeepy pandering that tends to come with statements like the one the person you're responding to said, but they're referring to the 80s hardcore subgenre of emo like Rites of Spring and Embrace.
Damn I’m 72 yo but this song still gives me emo feels just like when I was 54 when it came out and my gran kids was 13 and 14 but now it’s 2019 and I’m still listenin and will probably be listenin in 2020 so I’ll come back in 10 years when I’m 82 and see if anybody still listenin
@@Titoxburrito i googled it, i avoided this band when i was younger, i be 39 in may. I was big into hardcore punk and wanted nothing to do with EMO/screamo. I regret not getting into them back than, Silverstein is a good band. I grew up in same city as them but didn't know way back than. I don't know them personally. My older brother was acquaintance in early to mid teen years with Jordan Hastings drummer of Alexis on Fire, i never met him. He grew up in Burlington Ontario to. I think he was friend of a friend of my brothers, my brother wasn't friends with him as fare as i know just friendly acquaintances.
Turning 32. Same. The break down is the fucking best. I remember meeting the drummer of Silverstein my first warped tour. Nothing like wearing jeans…black shirt and black hair in my face in the middle of summer in Arizona.
35 here... i think we've all had plenty of time to revisit all the stuff we used to love. Many times we were blown away by how terrible the music was that we use to love. In this case, were blown away by how apparent it is that every aspect of this song is absolutely perfect. Passed the test of time.
Damn, I'm 27 years old. I used to listen to this when I was a teen. I was judged for liking rock/metal/emo, because I was black. So people thought I was a poser because of my skin color. Messed up.
If it weren't for black people there wouldn't be a rock genre. 🤷 "Rock 'n' roll was influenced by a Deep South black music genre called the blues. 'It [rock 'n' roll] started out as rhythm and blues,' Little Richard told Time in 2001. 'There wasn't nobody playing it at the time but black people - myself, Fats Domino, Chuck Berry. White kids started paying more attention to this music, white girls were going over to this music, they needed somebody to come in there - like Elvis.'" www.google.com/amp/s/m.mic.com/articles/amp/136969/who-invented-rock-n-roll-these-are-the-black-pioneers-who-laid-the-genre-s-foundations
What a nostalgia. Good old myspace days. It's one of those songs that takes me back to years where I enjoyed life and felt alive. Now everything is very seedy and everything looks alike. This song belongs to the years when a lot of money and effort was put into songs and music videos. Today's songs and videos all look alike. It's all so simple, it's like they're all the same product.
I’m glad I grew up with a brother who knows good music and I’m looking forward to keeping this music alive so in the future my kids will be listening to this. I love you Silverstein.
When I'm lying in your bed Play the motions through my head You know that I'm thinking, I'm thinking And I have reasons to believe That I'm not the only one you spend this time with But I'll stay You say, You're weak, You won't let me down, You won't let me down You lied, Through your teeth, You smiled in your sleep, You smile in your sleep When we met You said that we were the same You know that we're different, We're different And all those time you promised me that Everything would work out in the end You were gravely mistaken You say, You're weak You won't let me down, You won't let me down You lied, Through your teeth You smiled in your sleep, You smile in your sleep You lied You lied You lied You lied You lied, Through your teeth You won't let me down You lied, I deserve better then this I dream of steel Maroon and warm Your end (Your end) Your end (Your end) You gasp for air I'll see this through I'll see through you You're pale (You're pale) You're pale (You're pale) You're pale Blue eyes When your lying in your bed, Your eulogy's been read, You know that it's fitting You lied You say Your weak You wont let me down You wont let me down You lied Through your teeth You smiled in your sleep You smile in your sleep You smile You smile You smile You smile I deserve better than this
@DAVIDTHEANTICHRIST explain ? I like DGD and Silverstein, and plenty of other bands who have a similar sound to these guys; but that doesn't mean that they "ripped them off." Inspiration and similarity happens everywhere.
Anyone remember when this genre was popular? I used to jam out to this shit all the time. i grew out of the phase but now I'm starting to listen to it again. Not only was the music great, but MTV was awesome, too; room raiders, NEXT, parental control, pimp my ride, wild Boyz, viva la bam, and jackass.
I remember listening to this 7 years ago. Life was so much different. I was happy. I was healthy. It's hard but I will make it regardless. I was destined to win.
This song is so dear to my heart; but it isn’t even just the song. The way this video is shot is so spot on for people who have dealt with deep betrayal. The paranoid focus, the zooming in on clues, really everything. Thanks not only to Silverstein, but everyone who put (what I consider) a masterpiece together
Been with me for over a decade, through the attempted OD's and the worst of times this shit got me through. I turned 25 today sitting here balling my eyes out at this song, it was always my favourite. I never thought I would make it past 16. Thank you Silverstein
I know Silverstein has been a highly regarded band for many years, but I still don’t think enough people realize how great of song writers these guys are. And they’ve only gotten better with time, which is something a lot of bands from this era failed to do. They’re truly one of a kind
Silverstein, My Chemical Romance, Good Charlotte, Sum 41, Blink 182, Green Day, Simple Plan, Bullet for my Valentine, Avril Lavigne, Marilyn Manson, Panic at the Disco 🖤🖤🖤 still the best Music :)
To this day, this song still resonates with me. "You lie through your teeth, you smile in your sleep.. smile in your sleep." That verse just floods my head stuffed full of memories every fucking time.
tehredundant. 29 as well just saw them in pontiac michigan at the crofoot on the rise up tour, they havent lost a step i felt like the old man in the pit
This song came out in 2005 when I was 16. I was listening to my chemical romance, Hawthorne heights, Green Day, good charlotte, escape the fate, motionless in white, Linkin park etc all those emo/ alternative bands back when I was a teen. and I never heard of or listened to Silverstein. It’s until now 2017 and now I’m 28. That I found out about this band through Spotify and now I’m in Love this with song and most of their songs. I could’ve been rocking out to this song at 16 but I’m doing it at 28. 😂😂😂 I still love my this type of music even though I’m getting old.
Slowly time passes by and creeps up on us from time to time. Now we understand what our folks were telling us about when they were listening to music and they thought that music was real music. Now we're telling our kids what real music is. Originality is where it comes from. Creativity is its place of origin but it has no beginning nor end. Because at that place in time you just have to live in the moment. Much love from an ex emo but maybe I'm still emo LOL. What's an emo always an emo.
This song hurts now. Honestly, I’m not a huge fan of this song or band, but during the quarantine my best friend wanted me to make a playlist for her of songs she thought she would like. I used to listen to this when I was younger and her music taste would aline with this genre/sound. So I included it. She ended up playing it on repeat and fell in love. She even thanked me for showing her. I remember waking up half asleep and seeing her at her desk drawing and listening to this song quietly to not disturb me, but it was on repeat. She took her life a week after my birthday in 2020. I miss her so fucking much. This song just hits so differently now. I can’t believe it’s almost going to be a year I just really want her back
im sorry to hear that. I can't imagine loosing a dear friend especially one that had similar interests in music. Hopefully this song will serve as way to remember all the fun times you shared with her :/
@@whosMandoo it definitely will, I just wish I could listen to it with her. There’s so much more music I wish I could have showed her when I had the chance
I used to b a disturbed, confused teenager. Self harming,while playing smile in your sleep. Such dark days they were. This song is so nostalgic nd painful. The scars still adorn my wrists and forearms. Im lucky my girlfriend is so understanding.
Wasnt a phase... 28 now and Im proud of my 12 year old self for knowing good music. Feels bad the generations after us will never experience music like us 90s babies
If you told me when this song came out that 17 years later I would hear it live with Mike from TDWP during the breakdown, I would've laughed directly in your face. But here we are in 2022, one of the best concerts I've been to. Silverstein's glow up has been real
Listened to this album religiously in my early 20s. Now I'm 36 and have 3 kids. Discovering the Waterfront is tucked into my minivan and I blast it when I'm alone :P
ButteWhat Cool. I never played it before but still, that’s cool. ^^ For me, I first listened and watched this video on a DVD from both of my Hawthorne Heights CDs. (Their first two albums)
Met these guys at Warped Tour Chicago in 2006 when I worked with Victory Records...Shane is an awesome dude! Haven't seen them live in a while though, miss you dudes!
When I'm lying in your bed Play the motions through my head You know that I'm thinking, I'm thinking... And I have reasons to believe that I'm not the only one you spend this time with, but I'll stay... You say, you're weak, You won't let me down, You won't let me down. You lie through your teeth, You smile in your sleep, You smile in your sleep. When we met You said we were the same, You know that we're different, we're different, And all the times you promised me that Everything would work out in the end, you were gravely mistaken You say, you're weak, You won't let me down, You won't let me down. You lie through your teeth, You smile in your sleep, You smile in your sleep. You lie, you lie, you lie, you lie You lie through your teeth You won't let me down, You lie, I deserve better than this I dream of steel. Maroon and warm, Your end (your end), your end (your end) You gasp for air. I'll see this through, I'll see through you, Your pale (your pale), your pale (your pale), Your pale blue eyes. When you're lying in your bed, Your eulogy's been read You know that it's fitting, you lie. You say, you're weak, You won't let me down, You won't let me down. You lie through your teeth, You smile in your sleep, You smile in your sleep. You smile, you smile, you smile, you smile I deserve better than this.
