LYRICS
There is this thing that's like touching except you don't touch
Back in the day it just went without saying at all
All the world's history gradually dying of shock
There is this thing that's like talking except you don't talk
You sing
You sing
Sing for the bartender sing for the janitor sing
Sing for the cameras sing for the animals sing
Sing for the children shooting the children sing
Sing for the teachers who told you that you couldn't sing
Just sing
There is this thing keeping everyone's lungs and lips locked
It is called fear and it's seeing a great renaissance
After the show you can not sing wherever you want
But for now let's just pretend we're all gonna get bombed
So sing
Sing cause it's obvious sing for the astronauts sing
Sing for the president sing for the terrorists sing
Sing for the soccer team sing for the janjaweed sing
Sing for the kid with the phone who refuses to sing
Just sing
Life is no cabaret
We don't care what you say
We're inviting you anyway
You motherfuckers you'll sing someday
Whenever I'm feeling unconfident about my singing and I get really depressed and just want to give up, I listen to this song.
....a bit late but "just sing".....
Sing please it Is so beautiful as You are, so very BEAUTIFUL
I've loved this song since it was first released. After I arrived home from Afghanistan I'd watch the clip and bawl my eyes out. Thank you Amanda and Brian for getting it.
You might one of the rare one who REALLY understands "Sing for the president sing for the terrorists, sing"...
Thanks for your sacrifice.
I usually have to be in a certain kind of mood for a song to make me cry, especially the first time I hear it. The first time I heard this song was just now. I was in a perfectly normal mood, eating breakfast and watching youtube videos. Then I listened to this. Now I'm crying into my cereal. In a good way though!
This song is so beautiful, I started crying when I listened to it.
Years and years after first hearing this song, I still cry.
I've listened to the Dresden dolls since highschool and Amanda is a queen!!!
Damn goosebumps. Love when they all sing at the end!! 🥲
One of the very few songs that can move me to tears.
It just did for me.
I've been a hardcore DD fan for quite a while now and I just now discovered this music video. Ooops.
+Anna Nikole One of my all time fav DD songs :D
I find her magnificent! Voice, looks, and songwriting abilities.
Holy hell! I can't believe I'm just hearing about this band!! This was incredible!!! Instant Fan!!
god, this song brings tears to my eyes...
you have to respect talent, simple as that. The dolls and Amanda Palmer herself have a thoughtful energy that few others seem to have. Long may her light shine in a sea of darkness.
Hands down my favorite song EVER.
Lol my mom can't stand AFP's music but she LOVES this song. I think that says a lot about it. ❤
I'm not a fan either, but I do recognise original talent. And I love this song
Her voice is literally so beautiful
I heard this song for the first time in Germany back in like 2008 or something, I was repulsed by it. It wasn't the songs fault but my own. I came back to it today because I dunno, it is exquisite now for some reason.
This will always be my favorite Dolls song. Just sing.
God, I can't watch this without crying!
my fav dresden song.
This song always makes me feel better.
Never heard of this band. A hell of a kind of Smashing Pumpkins-sounding duo! Fucking love it!
This song is about forgiveness, not empowerment. Its about looking on the other side to those that you may have hurt or wronged or arguments you didnt see the other side of. Its not a song about self-empowerment. Look at amanda. Thats not her being effing mazzy star over here. This song is looking at the other side of what you know, understand and believe. This is my breakfast, because it humbles me.
how can a vid like this get 17 dislikes ??? this song is perfect is the song im a ianist songwriter and singer and is this song i sing when i want to remember who im and why im living my life for music
It's the Spirit Bomb! GOKUUU!!
This song doesn't just make me want to sing; it makes me want to force my soul out via my throat. It doesn't get much better than this.
Favorite song.
Legend
Fantastic song.
thank you maya fennec for introducing me to this beautiful song
I agree that the censorship is completely unnecessary and damages the integrity of the song, but let's not target rap as inferior, okay? Like any genre, it is perfectly capable of producing innovative, insightful music.
The swearing is unnecessary to the message tbh
Sing please it Is so beautiful as You are
I have always adored you
i love brian's last tom hit at the end, POP!
This is my favorite song in the world! AFP!!!
I wish someone would do a fucking flash mob with this song instead of the songs that only have a fraction of the soul this one has. -sigh- Either way, I get chills with song every time I hear/sing it
....standard reaction...tears in eyes and happy :)
the scene with the statues reminds me of a scene in bioshock with the frozen dead people
It's been way to long
Please everyone please Sing
Damn i forgot all about this song and just revisited it. So fuckin powerful. Its rare a song gets me so emotionally. YOU MOTHERFUCKERS JUST SING FOR ME!!!!
Great song!!!!
rock and roll yeah
i love how your name comes form flowers in the attic (or at least that's what it reminds me of)
okay so i am a HUGE fan of my chemical romance, and i heard Gerard (the singer) was really into the Dresden Dolls and he said it was a basically a woman who sang and played piano and a drummer, and i sing and play the piano so that really got me interested so this is the 3rd song i have listened to by them and im really impressed i like them i think i am going to listen to more haha
I love the flowers. :)
Brian I love your drumming!!!!!!

The white statues remind anyone else of BioShock?
lol, paused the video so I could get the url and download the mp3 so I'm not doing too many things at once, and I totally got a good facial expression of Amanda at 2:35. xD
No, the 16 dislikes on this fucking video are because they edited the crap out of it. Some cuss words are there to express a valid emotion and fuck fuck fuck is sometimes appropriate. LoL

@66PixieOfDeath6 They did...sorta. But, the dynamic duo is back!!!! w00t w00t
this video was posted on my birthday! lol
*person who was deeply moved by this song* Hey, dude, you gotta listen to this song! It's so amazing!....*person* WTF is this and who the hell are you? Why are you giving me a letter? POLICE!
Mine too....
The drummer sure loves the derby or bowler hat.
I am a fan of both MCR and Dresden Dolls. Dude, these are two completely different songs that happen to have the same title. It's not like singing is an obscure thing to sing about.
@rednoseroxy
Her eyebrows are drawn on with liquid eyeliner, not tattooed on.
I like her "Kurt Weil" keyboard
There is this thing that's like touching except you don't touch
@pikajace
Yes, MCR didn't really steal the idea, maybe they were inspired by it and put their new style on it. :) I love this song :D
i love Amanda! xD
Yes, Virginia... Sing
@pikajace yeah, but it's really really similar in theme and lyrcs. it's safe to say he was, ahem, "influenced" by the dolls' song...
Seriously, the build up. Phenomenal.
@violetheatherbrown
funny story gerard's a dredsen dolls fan :LL
i like both vers :3
Hey Whitney!
~Sumberg
Her facial expression in this video is similar to that of the children in the "I don't like Mondays" music video by Boomtown Rats.
I would love to listen to this song covered by Anna Calvi, I think her voice and her way of singing are somehow similar to Amanda's.
more like c'est fucking awesome
@pentumplementgum RAINING BLOOOOD!!! hahaha
1000 likes 4ever
I like the way she moves her face, its like shes chewing something n speaking
@lilyampersand I think this is the best comment I have ever read on you tube, cheers to you!
😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
ok I have to admit danger days isn't their best album but sing is one of the best on there.
thank god she's not with roadrunner records :DDD
you gotta be fucking kidding me!!!! >:( Why do you not like mcr's sing? It has so much meaning to so many people.
We caught you. Heheheh....
Oh shit! hahaha
Sing for the number of people who dislike this vid. Just sing.
@WeBelongInTheSea Yes, it's true. Gerard Way is a serious fan of The Dresden Dolls.
Qué mentada de censura.
@rockboy12346 Amanda Palmer is currently working on a collaborative project with singer/songwriter Jason Webley called Evelyn Evelyn, it's like this, but even more subversive.
@PyroPrincess33 oh well.
Makes perfect sense. They wrote two versions, this and the one they actually curse in which comes out in an album marked "Parental Advisory Explicit Lyrics." Hiphop / rap artist only make one version cause they Don't Give A FUCK.
Beautiful lyrics. She's evilcute btw. hatewheel approves.
@immaeighteen Fuck yeah
LIFE IS NO CABARET.
@MCRisSOawesome agreed they didnt steal anything the lyrics music and style is different idk y ppl think they stole it both are good songs
censored!!!??? really? fuck.
A song talking about being free for just 3 minutes gets censored. The irony is delicious (and sad)
@Sploggez Buy the fucking album.
@yamara34 Mine too!
@strangeling354 DUDE! YOU'RE RIGHT! I'M NOT COOL!!! CAUSE ALL MY COMMENTS ARE SHIT!!! so...I let fellow fans down .... 0.o Oh well?
what is the tittle about?
