Märit Totten I partially agree but I love the drums in the recording. That is one aspect I have never been 100% happy with even in non-acoustic live versions of this song.
This song perfectly captures the horror of losing the love of your life and being completely unprepared and unable to deal with it. It's like drowning in the open air. Eight years on and I still think about her every day and every time I hear Nineteen. T&S understand the human condition like few other bands.
I'm so glad this video still exists on youtube. This was my first exposure to Tegan & Sara like 10 years ago and I remember being absolutely enamored by it. I still am today. 🤗
Me too. Now I’m 29. You and I in different places at the same time doing the same thing and probably feeling incredibly angsty, lonely, and oh so individual 😂🙄😉
I remember watching this video when I first realised I liked girls, I must've been around 12 at that time. Now I'm engaged to the most amazing woman in this world and I couldn't be any happier. This song means a lot to me and for my journey in figuring myself out
God, this makes me think of my ex. I was 19 when I met her, I'm 21 now but I'm still not over her. She was my first real love, the first person to ever touch my body with gentle hands. This song puts a lump in my throat and uncomfortable thoughts in my head but I can't stop listening.
Wow, I just so happened to run into this powerful song when I was not only 19, but also experiencing the very essence of it. Definitely an experience to remember. Great job, Tegan & Sara
One of my best friends recorded this song for me at a concert when she was alive and it was one of the last things she ever sent me on Facebook and that was a few years back. Still fucks me up to this day. My eyes water when I hear this song and I think of her and our memories.
first time i heard this song i was 13 and now i’m finally 19 (been waiting 6 years for this moment)! this song and this recording in particular are very special
holy shit I'm 19 today and I first heard this song at 13 too! I went to the comments to say this and went "wait, the comment I'm about to make is right there" lol. I remember wondering back then if I'd even remember this song at 19, and now it's the first thing I'm listening to for my birthday
I remember hearing this song fifteen years ago, and glamorizing how nice nineteen would be. Turns out nineteen was probably the lowest point in my life to date, I don't think I've ever hurt as much as I did then. I'm 29 now, and I realize I was hearing the song all wrong. It was never about an optimistic age, but the bitter feelings of dealing with loss you can't control- just doing your best to live through them.
Haven’t heard this song since I was 16 I am now 31 glad I found this song again, brings back memories of my life of sadness,life has and always is full of misery,all you have is yourself in the end 😢
Oh my god. Just clicking on it every day. That beginning... When she starts with : "I felt you in my legs... " ...that's amazing. She is so gorgeous. Both of them. Love them more and more with another new song from them. ..and then that "I flew home..." GOD! my heart melts. I wish I was there listening to them. AMAZING voices :) Girls you're the best.
so beautiful. i rediscovered this song and I remembered why Tegan and Sara are so beautiful. The raspy sound Tegan has in her voice is mind blowing then add Sara's light and airy harmonies and this song, unforgettable.
I felt you in my legs before I ever met you And when I laid beside you for the first time, I told you I feel you in my heart and I don't even know you [Pre-Chorus] Now we're saying bye Bye, bye Now we're saying bye Bye, bye [Chorus] I was nineteen Call me [Verse 2] I felt you in my life before I ever thought to Feel the need to lay down beside you and tell you I feel you in my heart and I don't even know you [Pre-Chorus] And now we're saying bye Bye, bye Now we're saying bye Bye, bye [Chorus] I was nineteen Call me I was nineteen Call me [Bridge] Flew home, back to where we met Stayed inside, I was so upset Cooked up a plan so good except I was all alone You were all I had Love you You were all mine Love me I was yours right? I was yours right? [Chorus] I was nineteen Call me (bye, bye) I was nineteen Call me (bye, bye)
I found this song at a really rough time in my life. I had my daughter really young, and at the time she went to live with a family member. And this song resonated so much for me in the sense of my bond to her before I knew her and when she went away. Happy to say my daughter is almost 16 and has been with me since she was 2.5 years old. ❤️
I have been listening to this since I was a little girl. I met the love of my life at 19 and Im 22 now. The song clicked for once in my life. It fit me too well. Im scared to loose him.
Tomorrow is my 20th birthday. And thanks to this song and how it fits so perfectly with my experience of being a 19 year old, I will spend my remaining hours as a teenager weeping uncontrollably. Damn it.
8 years ago I was in high school listening to these girls on a daily. 8 years later I was talking to my high school girlfriend about Tegan and Sara and how much we loved them. Thought I'd give them a listen. Feel like my 15 year old self again.
This is my first time hearing this gem; I'm 19, and something happened to a relationship of mine yesterday that makes this song scary relevant. One day off, but what an amazing feeling it is when you relate with a song this much...
Even if I know the band not as well as another, but this song- even this song- take me anywhere i want to be in.. It makes me thoughtfully and kind of melancholic, cause I am nineteen and I feel like I have already lived my life.. it's so strange what happens to you if you growing up inside.. My life runs so chaotic and hectic as never before.. Precisely at this time I've lost the love of my life.. So, this song becomes unbelievablely important to me. I just wanna say... Thank you.
Most live recordings kind of suck to be honest because most artists make a twist in their vocals, but this is so much better than the recording for the official album! :D
RUclips says I've watched this before but it must have been a loooong time ago. Unfortunately I did not leave a comment for myself to ridicule half a lifetime later! This is a magnificent performance of a really nice song from a legendary record. I always love Sara's backing vocals that they do live (on the studio albums, they each normally do all vocals on a song). Love this! I just learned from the Wikipedia that apparently, Ted Gowans (seated on the left), is the only *true member* of the band who is a guitarist, and the only musician who performed on studio albums in addition to the live shows-with the exceptions of Tegan and Sara themselves of course. Ted departed in 2014, but during his 10 years was an absolutely stellar component of the band. We miss Ted. The Spinner link in the description no longer works (unsurprising), but the site itself appears to no longer exist. Yahoo seems to be sitting on the domain. At least the other 2 videos are still here, but suffering from the old RUclips 240p degradation thing they do. Now in another 10 years I can come back and laugh at this ridiculous comment I wrote.
I heard this after my gay sister in law gave it to me loaded on an iPod I was 18. When she handed me it I was surrounded by my daughter in laws and so on. It was as if she saw my false pretence and knew I was like her. 10 years later am still that person getting gifts from in laws with my family around knowing that my other half knows I know but it's never spoken of so we carry on .........torture pure torture never settle down early and stay true to who u are or you'll end up like me. A virgin (to my sexual desires)and a slave to everyone else (just so things aren't difficult 😞 ) xxx
You guys are my favorite band since I was 5 and I always singing or play you sing when I am sad and this is my family's favorite song we play is no mater what!!!😀😀
im 19 now, recently i lost the love of my life. once I'm 20 ill never be able to go back, its terrifying :'( i was about to vent my overwhelming emotions, but all of sudden it seems so unnecessary
I was 19 when i met my soulmate. He was 33. And right from the very beginning was when i first felt and knew love. And still do. For 3 very beautiful years we got too spend together. I'm 23 now. We're not together anymore. But listening to songs like this... no matter how long it's been. What we've gone through. Even now. Still makes me think about him. The only person i ever got too love... and still do. After some short time we've contacted each other again and have planned to hang out soon. Sometimes i still wish i could go back to the days we spent every hour together... in our apartment. I don't know what the future holds. Feelings change. People change. But all i know is that i will always love him.
well that "shit" they're making now is what's keeping them relevant and letting them continue to make new music. At least they've reinvented themselves in a way that still keep their old audience while attracting a new generation of tegan and sara fans. Besides if they kept making the same type of music now how lame would that be after a decade? Pretty lame.
I really do love Tegan and Sara. They don't need any autotune or generic techno beats. They can just sit and play their guitars and sing absolutely beautiful and moving music. These women are simply amazing!
Heard this version before the original and could never go back to original version! Soooo good still in 2022!
Same!
Same here ❤
Sara's harmony during the bridge is so beautiful.
Gab Rose I can't even.. My emotions are too much to deal with haha
I think this live performance is even better than the original recording.
agreed
Totally agree
Märit Totten I partially agree but I love the drums in the recording. That is one aspect I have never been 100% happy with even in non-acoustic live versions of this song.
Märit Totten i love the way you can really hear the emotion in her voice
that'll be the autotune
This song perfectly captures the horror of losing the love of your life and being completely unprepared and unable to deal with it. It's like drowning in the open air. Eight years on and I still think about her every day and every time I hear Nineteen. T&S understand the human condition like few other bands.
Me too!
My twin and I have been waiting a long time to sing this song on our 19th birthday. And the day has finally arrived. What a time to be alive.
How did it go
Happy belated 24 birthdays!
@@clodaghlenihan4118 ahaha we made a video singing to the song! It was a great moment ❤️
@@zidesce7961 wow we’re old now 😭 thanks!!
Hell yes!
I'm so glad this video still exists on youtube. This was my first exposure to Tegan & Sara like 10 years ago and I remember being absolutely enamored by it. I still am today. 🤗
well, I was nineteen the first time I heard this song and now I'm 28. I begin to feel nostalgic and I'm not that old.
same!!
being 19 right now and have been listening to this for a week
You live 80 years. You're old after 40, but you can remain young in your mind for much longer.
Same here. I am 29 now, and first listened this to when I was 19.
Me too. Now I’m 29. You and I in different places at the same time doing the same thing and probably feeling incredibly angsty, lonely, and oh so individual 😂🙄😉
I remember watching this video when I first realised I liked girls, I must've been around 12 at that time. Now I'm engaged to the most amazing woman in this world and I couldn't be any happier. This song means a lot to me and for my journey in figuring myself out
I was 23 when I meet my partner and she was 19..still together after 40 years..love your music
Listen to the first words and "BAM!!!" , i can fell the pain immediately. After 11 years still so good ♥
this song brings on so many emotions for me. Just so many.
This was on repeat for me back in 07, when I was 16. Such a trip, still an amazing version ❤️❤️❤️
My first real gf showed me Tegan n Sara in 2008 when I was 16/17. 1991 what's good. (Just a bro lol)
I first heard this when I was 12 and it is now my 19th birthday. Still good.
+Angela Francesca Happy belated birthday! This song is eternally amazing.
+Angela Francesca me too but im 18 now.. isnt it bizarre? time is crazy
Me too!! I was in middle school obsessed with their music
I know you posted this a year ago but happy birthday! haha Also, you are so, so pretty.
God, this makes me think of my ex. I was 19 when I met her, I'm 21 now but I'm still not over her. She was my first real love, the first person to ever touch my body with gentle hands. This song puts a lump in my throat and uncomfortable thoughts in my head but I can't stop listening.
SomeWittyCatchPhrase this song alone was enough to make my throat tighten as if I swallowed my own heart but your comment wrecked my feelssss
agreed
Met my ex when I was 15 and I'm still not over her. I'm 27.
This comment gave me shivers while listening to this song
Sending love your way. We've all been there, man. Took the words right out my mouth. We'll never love like that first love.e
This is the best version of this song that I have ever heard. Chills every single time.
Wow, I just so happened to run into this powerful song when I was not only 19, but also experiencing the very essence of it. Definitely an experience to remember. Great job, Tegan & Sara
was 19 when this song came out... still one of my favorite songs...
Still obsessed with this 16 years later.
Still come back to this one. Years and years and years of coming back
I met my ex when I was nineteen , we were together for 7 years and now I cry when I hear this song
tegan´s voice in this one is just adorable =)))
This song hits home aaaah
This song makes me want to give Tegan and Sara head. ;)
:)
LOL.
+Granted Miller Its supposed to make you want to hold them and tell them everything is going to be okay… 0.o
Still listening in November 2024!!
One of my best friends recorded this song for me at a concert when she was alive and it was one of the last things she ever sent me on Facebook and that was a few years back. Still fucks me up to this day. My eyes water when I hear this song and I think of her and our memories.

The video that got me into Tegan and Sara.
i dont thihnk a song is supposed to make you cry as much as this does, i am sobbing.

they did so much for me. I wouldn't be who I am today if it weren't for them.
Biggest facts
Remembering when I was 15 and had a haircut like Tegans, haha. It looked so bad
I did the same thing when I was like 13 hahaha I feel like that cut is made for her and only her
They're all i ever think about & tegan omg help me please
It's alright.
This convo. LOLOLOLOLOL!
Mike chapman You're a good troll.
vag ina Yeah, he's just a troll.
Mike chapman You need Therapy.
so beautiful. i rediscovered this song and I remembered why Tegan and Sara are so beautiful. The raspy sound Tegan has in her voice is mind blowing then add Sara's light and airy harmonies and this song, unforgettable.
10 years and this song still chokes me up...
I felt you in my legs before I ever met you
And when I laid beside you for the first time, I told you
I feel you in my heart and I don't even know you
[Pre-Chorus]
Now we're saying bye
Bye, bye
Now we're saying bye
Bye, bye
[Chorus]
I was nineteen
Call me
[Verse 2]
I felt you in my life before I ever thought to
Feel the need to lay down beside you and tell you
I feel you in my heart and I don't even know you
[Pre-Chorus]
And now we're saying bye
Bye, bye
Now we're saying bye
Bye, bye
[Chorus]
I was nineteen
Call me
I was nineteen
Call me
[Bridge]
Flew home, back to where we met
Stayed inside, I was so upset
Cooked up a plan so good except I was all alone
You were all I had
Love you
You were all mine
Love me
I was yours right?
I was yours right?
[Chorus]
I was nineteen
Call me (bye, bye)
I was nineteen
Call me (bye, bye)
This song has such a special place in my heart. I 3 began and Sara
When sara starts harmonising at 2:22 I get chills... This is so beautiful!
I found this song at a really rough time in my life. I had my daughter really young, and at the time she went to live with a family member.

the nostalgia.. before i could tell anyone i was gay. they helped keep me going.
how talented they are. their music is quite simple and so so real
LOVE.
This is the most beautiful version of this song I've ever heard. Tegan's voice is so full of emotion, I almost cried.
Been watching this video since the sidekick days !! Love this performance
2017 and this still give me chills
2022. Still same feeling
damn this song is still so damn good, and this performance is amazing
Ah… What an amazing song. Probably my favourite by them now.
Still so good. A classic for those with the fortune to have come across it. I feel blessed to have spent so many years with this era-defining band.
8 years later and this song still kills me. I freaking love this performance
Tomorrow is my 20th birthday. And thanks to this song and how it fits so perfectly with my experience of being a 19 year old, I will spend my remaining hours as a teenager weeping uncontrollably. Damn it.
And now you’re 30. How time passes.
@@watchjet this made me cry, thank you 😂🖤🖤
I met my husband when I was 22 and 16 years later we are still together :)
I was 18.
God damn, still singing along aftet 10 years haha
8 years ago I was in high school listening to these girls on a daily. 8 years later I was talking to my high school girlfriend about Tegan and Sara and how much we loved them. Thought I'd give them a listen. Feel like my 15 year old self again.
Been watching this video for a few years now. Their pitch is perfect. Amazing song, amazing songwriting.
Sara 2:22-2:31
I can't even..

I just dieddd
😭😭😭
memory lane
Tegan is my wife. That's smirk she does while singing... I just can't. Love me.
😭
Thank you for sharing this! This series is how I found T&S. Such a great performance.
This is my first time hearing this gem; I'm 19, and something happened to a relationship of mine yesterday that makes this song scary relevant. One day off, but what an amazing feeling it is when you relate with a song this much...
In my opinion,this is one of their best songs,sang acousticly.
i was nineteennnnnn..... calllll the dj nowwwwww
Just saying, this song is amazing but got even more amazing when I realised it was Rose Tyler's song for the Doctor. UUUUGGGHHH!!!!
REALLY!?!?!?!?
Even if I know the band not as well as another, but this song- even this song- take me anywhere i want to be in.. It makes me thoughtfully and kind of melancholic, cause I am nineteen and I feel like I have already lived my life.. it's so strange what happens to you if you growing up inside.. My life runs so chaotic and hectic as never before..
Precisely at this time I've lost the love of my life.. So, this song becomes unbelievablely important to me.
I just wanna say... Thank you.
I have felt the song with all my heart through my childhood. It touched me when I was 12 and now it is still touching me with 19. ♥
Most live recordings kind of suck to be honest because most artists make a twist in their vocals, but this is so much better than the recording for the official album! :D
I heard this at 16, I'm 26 now.
29 now, still here.
This is better than the version on iTunes

Crying
fun fact: still crying
me neither. All the time.
Fun fact: same
3 year update: actually crying more now

😢😢❤💛
Best song in The Con.
You guys are my favorite band since I was 5 and I always singing or play you sing when I am sad and this is my family's favorite song we play is no mater what!!!😀😀
Sara's backup vocals are just pristine. Her soft and delicate voice really complements Tegan's. Gawd, I'm so in love!
today im 19!!!
im 19 now, recently i lost the love of my life. once I'm 20 ill never be able to go back, its terrifying :'(
i was about to vent my overwhelming emotions,
but all of sudden it seems so unnecessary
they are THE SHIT!
I listened to this song over and over again last summer. I love it.
I was 19 when i met my soulmate. He was 33. And right from the very beginning was when i first felt and knew love. And still do. For 3 very beautiful years we got too spend together. I'm 23 now. We're not together anymore. But listening to songs like this... no matter how long it's been. What we've gone through. Even now. Still makes me think about him. The only person i ever got too love... and still do. After some short time we've contacted each other again and have planned to hang out soon. Sometimes i still wish i could go back to the days we spent every hour together... in our apartment.
I don't know what the future holds. Feelings change. People change.
But all i know is that i will always love him.
I am nineteen now.
Marrying Tegan okok
Their haircuts are so cute
Everybody, please just enjoy the amazing lyrics and their incredible voices.
SO beautiful, I love the harmonies it just comes together amazingly
ANYONE HERE FROM PARAMORE?!?
Old times when Tegan and Sara actually made music, not this shit they're sing it now.
well that "shit" they're making now is what's keeping them relevant and letting them continue to make new music. At least they've reinvented themselves in a way that still keep their old audience while attracting a new generation of tegan and sara fans. Besides if they kept making the same type of music now how lame would that be after a decade? Pretty lame.
thank you for keeping these videos up!!! 29 now and it hits diff but the same
I really do love Tegan and Sara. They don't need any autotune or generic techno beats. They can just sit and play their guitars and sing absolutely beautiful and moving music. These women are simply amazing!
Okay I've listened to this 13 times in a row and I have stop even if it depresses me. BEST SONG MAYBE EVER. Take the replay button away from me.
no other song does this, but when i hear this song, i wanna cry....its soo amazing..i love these 2.
I've Listenesd to these Ladies since '08 and they still happen to be one of favorite groups, Great Music and great memories!
Tegan & Sara always make me want to cry and they're like the only music that makes me feel like that.
why does this song make me cry?? Such a beautiful song and really beautiful performance
i've played this song so many times, and will continue to do so because it is amazing, as are tegan and sara.
I remember this was the first video I ever watched of them and I fell in love completely.
I was 19 when I was introduced to this band by an ex. And now it's the song that reminds me of her.. "I was yours, right?"
I LOVE TEGAN AND SARA WHEN I SAW THEM LIVE I CRIED!! THIS SONG IS AMAZING, LIVE!!
This song makes me cry so much everytime I hear it... But I just can't stop listening to it.
This is the first time I am crying while listening to this brilliant song. Basically it describes what happened to me this summer. I love it.
