Same.. growing up in the 90s and Rx scripts everywhere in the 2000s. But God kept me from ever getting into H. Lost a lot of excellent people. Rx scripts wasted 11 years of my life. From 18 to 29.

@@richardhed316 some monsoons only really bloom when the fourth tendril has already been ruptured. Other are but a mut in the run side of ones delusional high way. Capricorns are not at all what they seem on paper from what they are in the spherical world. We don’t just travel among the many lost that claim that they can see the way throughout the tunnels. We are the way. Berating about what toe claymations you can make is far beyond anything I can say about you so called “travesty tale” on ice. Coming up and down to catch the moon and sun is one hell of a feat if done properly.

@@ajwernert21 mostly right. Yellowcard's current label "Hopeless Records" didn't want to promote the EP from "Fueled By Ramen". Fueld By Ramen has almost all of their music on Spotify (obviously excluding this)
they are back and better than ever! i got to see them two nights ago and it was incredible. Ryan promised that they will never make us wait that long to hear from them again. and they are recording another new album next year!

Yellowcard has changed in their style, but I love all their music. Midget Tossing/Where We Stand was kinda weird to me, but I love everything after that, and it's all been pretty unique. One For The Kids and The Underdog EP were pretty raw, about as close to real punk as they've ever been. Ocean Avenue was definitely pop punk, mostly lighthearted teenage stuff. Lights and Sounds was darker, kind of an anti-Hollywood album. Paper Walls was kind of about stages of life and relationships with a go

omg thanks sooo much for uploading this there was a vid before but youtube took it down and i've been looking for it ever since so lucky to have come across it agin-just made my day thanks ;)
George Fenske Not Paper Walls.That album was awesome. I should specify that Paper Walls and Lift a Sail (which hadn't come out at the time of the post), are the exceptions. Those albums are one of the few that actually try something new, and show a clear progression. When Your Through Thinking Say Yes, and Southern Air, were just generic pop rock albums, that you'd hear at your local Hot Topic store. When I say "scene band", I mean bands that appeal to the Hot Topic crowd. As for Ocean Avenue, it's okay, but it's aged horribly. Lights and Sounds is the most pretentious piece of crap album I have ever heard. And that's my opinion on all the albums from Ocean Avenue onwards. Maybe you should grow up and learn not everyone has the same tastes as you.
5 months later... i hope assumption is completely wrong and far off but it sounds like you gave up on your friend way too quickly and when he or she needed you most. the drug use was a literal cry for help in the most self destructive way ever. definitely, it is extremely hard to witness someone you care about slowly kill your friendship and themselves. trust me i know because i am in recovery from addiction, i AM that friend. my best friend britt would simply ignore the fact i was experimenting at first and then slowly started to ignore me and our friendship as if we were never friends in the first place but i needed you more than ever then britt, if only he stuck with me a little bit longer it might of been enough time to give me a wake up call that i needed to get my shit together. i havent talked to him in the better half of a decade. i am not blaming him whatsoever, yes i chose to experiment and try drugs but i did NOT choose to get addicted to them. nobody wakes up one day and goes "i want to be an IV heroin addict and completely throw my life away and everyone and thing thats in it" nobody as said that EVER. IT IS A DISEASE PEOPLE. THE SOONER YOU CAN COME TO TERMS WITH THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE AN UNCUREABLE DISEASE, THE SOONER YOU REALIZE YOU CAN TREAT IT WITH ACTIVELY STAYING IN RECOVERY. THERE IS HOPE. WE DO RECOVER. I AM LIVING TESTIMONY. PLEASE, IF YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW IS SUFFERING FROM ADDICTION, DO NOT GIVE UP ON THEM AS YOU MIGHT BE THE ONLY THING IN THAT PERSONS LIFE THAT GIVES THEM ANY SORT OF STABILITY.

@sosaysthelegend I wish it were longer. The new one's going to be 10 tracks as well. 'For You, and Your Denial' (which I was fortunate enough to see the first live performance of) is amazing and has had the same effect on me that 'Rough Landing, Holly' did in many ways. I often am more impacted by the power ballads or acoustic numbers at first ('How I Go' and 'Sing For Me'), but I think the ones that stick with me the most over time are those driving, melodic tracks that hit that perfect spot.

@lifeisgood1013 Not that old? To give you some perspective, Yellowcard formed in 1997 (with Sean and LP). Yellowcard as we know them has been in existence since 2000 when Ryan took over vocals and rhythm guitar. Ocean Avenue was released in 2003. It's now 2012. So they released OA six years into their career, and three into Ryan's tenure. Now it's nine years later. It belongs to the first half of their discography. But I remember when it was new. It was definitely their game-changer.
hey thank you so much for posting! the only thing i don't get is why the guy missed the toilet when he threw up even though he held onto it in the first scene they showed of him throwing up. Also, i think that he died in the end of the video. when the guy knocks on the bathroom door and signals someone to come over, it shows that he didn't actually come out of the bathroom to yell at everyone. and one last thing, at 2:53 when sean plays his violin, you can see smoke come from his strings lol.
@RGibbs0402 The song is about the "Falling down" or collapse of an addict's life. Becoming disconnected from reality, with one's thoughts devoted solely to their drug. At least, that's what the "falling down" means
@sosaysthelegend So basically, L&S was epic and life-changing for me in a way that the last two albums haven't been. The ironic thing is that these albums are closer to what I originally wanted from them before I knew what they were fully capable of. My tastes evolved with that of the bands'. I understand the reasons for returning to an older sound, and I love all of what they do. I've learned from L&S to accept albums for what they are, so long as they're truly good.
and here I thought I knew all of their videos. lol...(from Lights & Sounds to When Your're Through Thinking Say Yes) I agree with comment under me. Are there any other older videos?

@sosaysthelegend ... the album was released. Yet I was upset, both leading up to it and especially once it came out, that they had departed from Ocean Avenue in many ways. Back then, I was more rigid in what I expected from a band I had come to love. L&S was eye-opening for me. I don't love all the songs equally, by any means, but it grew on me more than any album ever has. I couldn't stop listening to it even when I was largely disappointed with it. Since then, it's had more of an impact on...
@lifeisgood1013 Yep, L&S. I had the exact same experience as you with it. It was interesting though, because I've honestly never anticipated one album more than that. I was reading/listening/watching every possible interview I could find leading up to its release. I watched every video clip posted of them in the studio. I had the tracklisting memorized before it came out. I saw them play 'Holly Wood Died', 'Rough Landing, Holly', and 'Lights and Sounds' at Chain Reaction two months before...
@sosaysthelegend Ironically, the album considered to be the biggest departure from Ocean Avenue is my favorite. I think we all know which one I'm talking about.
@lifeisgood1013 Haha. Yeah, I sounded like an asshole there. Not sure why I said it like that. I agree. I'd say OA is the defining Yellowcard album. They're still making stuff (like "The Sound of You and Me", for instance) that has a strong One For the Kids feel to it. But I think everything they've done since has been compared to OA, not just commercially but stylistically. They certainly seem to be aware of this when they're writing.
@gotenks31069 I thought he was screaming at the people because he was dead and he didn't know it. There's no reaction from anyone when he comes back out of the bathroom after passing out on the floor. How many people do you know that will allow someone to scream in their face and do absolutely nothing? Just offering another viewpoint.
Great, my comment was cut off. My point was that YC changes their style a little between all their albums, but I still love all their music and if you're a real fan, you will too.
It was actually about a friend of theirs who had pushed away all his friends, crushing and snorting painkillers. This was written trying to get through to him and get him to quit. I think I remember reading that he cleaned up before the song was actually released, thankfully :)
