2024 and I still love this song. ❤

@JD-qt4wo 4 года назад

11 years later and it’s still an amazing epic masterpiece

@mattrobertson3800 Год назад

I’ve watched in 100 times and I still get a chill

@supercededman Год назад

That string quartet, the female violinist, the lead guitar, the singing, the PASSION. Fark.

@meganedwards2740 7 месяцев назад

My number one song of all time. Unbeatable

@ginagambardella6370 3 месяца назад

It really is!

@jaramima 10 лет назад

I get chills each time i hear this, i have not heard a song emote so much pain and self torture like this. I feel this guys pain through the lyrics, music and vocals. Haunting.

@JulianaBittencourt24 Год назад

I'm hearing it for the first time, after finishing Mikel's amazing memoir and wondering about this song, and knowing a bit of the story behind it. All the feels.

@alexblain5990 2 года назад

This is one of the greatest live performances of all time

@PaullyRR 8 лет назад

Some of the most powerful and visually haunting lyrics in the history of music.... stunning!

@mikeanderson9112 4 года назад

This is my favorite Letterman tune ever , his reaction is classic.. he knows they nailed it and he doesn’t really know what to say, awesome live tune!!

@3ncrypt3dcod3s 10 лет назад

The storytelling is just so on point.

@larrysinger9359 7 лет назад

one of Letterman's top 10 live performances. Top 5 "angst/breakup" songs of all time. Anna is entranced. The vocals are so raw. Incredible

@scottcreek3436 4 года назад

The whigs

@user-pq2vx7zn4b Год назад

Flipping channels 14 years ago and landed on Dave introducing a band named The Airborne Toxic Event who I never heard of. The song and the performance gave me crazy chills. Fast forward 4 months and my wife and I fly to London from North Carolina to see them perform at KOKO. At least 15 times after that in 7 different states. I’m in awe of this band and the music they make.

@Luis-mg5kc 3 года назад

This band is so underrated and in 2021 i still love this song

@chuck5509 13 лет назад

I like how the song has "feelings". The beats and tempo get faster and angrier as the story progresses. It fits in perfectly with the story. You don't see that often, very well done!!

@cesarmedina4774 Год назад

The string quartet had one job and nailed it!! Love it!!

@rachelp80111 4 месяца назад

The music changes to match the emotions and, damn, it hurts. Amazing performance.

@rdsxfan2827 5 лет назад

I love that the Calder Quartet (with Anna's brother Andrew) played so brilliantly on this version.

@johnsands9108 Год назад

I'm addicted to listening to this song. Like, I have a problem and I'm not gonna seek help

@semicolon101 Год назад

Same friend, found help yet?

@amelia_babelia 4 года назад

11 years and still one of the best songs to ever be "radio music"

@theoandolaf 6 лет назад

3:23 You know you're rocking when your violin string breaks.

@ofalltrades7403 3 года назад

It’s a reed string. Happens all the time but I get your point

@nodice100 3 года назад

LMAOOOO

@robfla 3 года назад

@@ofalltrades7403 it's the bow's hair ( they have like 150 to 170 strands ). Happens all the time but I get your point.

@Bringer33 2 года назад

Still can't listen to this without a tear 😢 this song came out at the hardest point in my life I'll never forget it.

@stevennicholas5472 2 года назад

Fucking awesome. That is all.

@ryangossett8211 10 месяцев назад

Arguably my favorite version of arguably my favorite song of all time! The String Quartet was a great addition!

@rickycee87 8 лет назад

One of those songs that you can play over and over as if you were reliving your past through these powerful n emotional lyrics. I think that's the recipe to a masterpiece...

@ccramit 9 дней назад

Probably my favorite performance of this song ever. The energy is just unmatched.

@Nobbl182 7 месяцев назад

I'll hear it in 2024, and it's as beautiful as the first day I heard it at Matuschke on Bayern 3 - 2009!

@BabylonBoyce 13 лет назад

One of the best written songs in about 10 years. Eerie, Angry, Perfect.

@codeman1987 5 лет назад

This song and Mr. Brightside, man...

@rhyanriesgo231 15 лет назад

It's the art of feeling the music, my friend!

@brian32151867 15 лет назад

The best part was the sincerity of Dave's reaction. Nice job! :-)

@shariqahmed5637 2 года назад

This song is so good; even after all the years, it still affects me viscerally.

@CFarnwide 6 лет назад

You can tell both Paul and Dave were sincere in exclaiming they both really enjoyed that performance. The string section was into it big time!

@paulk1888 2 года назад

2021 and just found this song and I can't stop listening

@gloworm106 3 года назад

Came back to revisit this after Hollywood Park and it still holds as one of the best live performances I've seen. I'm sure it must have been a treat for everyone in the audience who actually got to see this live. Such pure and raw emotion.

@ChuckDickens24 15 лет назад

They're a sweet combo with that quartet, I love it.

@9465anders 9 лет назад

Can't deny it....Amazing poetry, great sound = Great band ! just try to escape the rhythm and the story !

@geraintmazuze9199 9 лет назад

Yes this one the great songs around, keep listening and listening not boring at all

@lsehbruce 10 месяцев назад

Love love love. And the song was cut down for TV. Top 5 song for me

@SteveMarriott91 15 лет назад

It hurts me SO much that Lil Wayne etc are top of the charts, whilst hardly anyone knows the brilliance of this band... Epic...

I think most of us can put ourselves in the position of loss.

@RunEd51 15 лет назад

i love the way anna bumps as the music goes. when i saw them last year, she went crazy with her tambourine and jumped into the crowd. it was awesome.

@9465anders 9 лет назад

I just have to see them, i just have to see them, live in concert !

@ryangossett8211 10 месяцев назад

Have you seen them in concert yet??!?

@tapthesource 14 лет назад

Poets and artists struggle to capture the wrenching, can't catch your breath, there's no tomorrow pain of being left behind. Mikel Jollett and this masterpiece captures that feeling as well as anyone or anything I've come across in a very long time. A classic.

@IDasheZ 8 лет назад

always listened to this song bc of how nice it was, now that i can relate to it i cant help but cry

@johnbinder5129 5 лет назад

I know I commented on this a few years ago, but man it is as good today as it was then. A killer performance by these guys of a song that has oceans of emotions. Love the band's energy, and even the broken string fits right in with that. Thanks TATE and Letterman for that!

@davicus100 6 лет назад

this busts you up no matter how powerful you think you are

@mandyjudkins1913 3 года назад

@globalnova 9 лет назад

i thought this was The Church when i first heard it on the way to Seoul airport on the military radio station. they didn't say who it was at the end so i googled "holding her tonic like a cross" and the rest, shall we say, is history.

@VansHalham 5 месяцев назад

I lived in Hell's Kitchen for 11 months and Letterman was half way between the library and my place. One day one of the security guys at the Ed Sullivan Theater stopped me and said that these guys sounded great great in rehearsal and I was up on the top row balcony for this! By the end I was pasted against the back wall in awe! It was amazing
