The line "if love is a labour I'll slave to the end" summed up my grandmother so much I borrowed it to use in her eulogy and I've included it in my tribute tattoo for her
I think its so sweet to put someone in a tattoo I only have one my grandmother was my favorite person I got her favorite flower tattooed on my thigh when im sad I can look at that and feel better
This song depressed me in the most delightful ways as a lad, and continue to do so today. I remember the first time I heard this song as a young feller', and the lyrics just...struck me. There was something there, something that made me want to take a deeper listen. The moment I got home, I hopped online, looked up the lyrics, and proceeded to listen to it again, and again, and again. I consumed it; consumed every single word, internalized his every point of emphasis and inflection. This song was life altering, and, even to my young mind, provided so much perspective as to what was the important in life. These simple, yet deep sentiments were ingrained in m fifteen year old mind from that moment forward. I'm thirty now, and to this very day, this song resonates me. Especially with the amount of loss in my life, now, more than ever, this song rings its truest to me. I can't thank this band enough for all the years of great music, and all the grueling times they've gotten me through. They'll always be one of my favorite bands. I don't normally go on these long rants in the comments, and if anyone's taken the time to read this, my sincerest apologies, and at the same time, my deepest thanks haha...I've had some rather unfortunate news today, so forgive my reflective, 2 AM rambling in the comments section. Hope the lot of you are having a much better year, and if you're not, just remember: You're not alone, and, eventually, things will get better, so just hang in there. Stay Nerdy, friends.
As corny as it sounds, this band is honestly keeping me surviving right now, this song and couple others especially. I’m struggling so badly right now mentally, but every time I listen to them my mind feels relief for a bit. ❤️
@@cmrm11 a bit better actually. My boyfriend got me tickets for one of their concerts next month, and it’s giving me something to look forward to, and motivated me to get myself healthy again, so I’m finally feeling more like myself again.
A dollar short and a day late; I'm saddened and disappointed by your loss. I hope he rests easy. I'll be keeping you and your husband in my thoughts and prayers this holiday season.
I miss my brother, whose favourite song was this. He took his own life 8years ago to another realm, but I feel him everyday. I miss you sweet angel, and I wish we met up for our final tea
Right here with ya, lost my brother in 2014. He was 16. I was 14 at the time. Took his life as well and he loved this song as well, told us he wanted us to play this song at his funeral. They are always there and watching over us ❤️.
"Swing Life Away" Am I loud and clear, or am I breaking up? Am I still your charm, or am I just bad luck? Are we getting closer, or are we just getting more lost? I'll show you mine if you show me yours first Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words We live on front porches and swing life away, We get by just fine here on minimum wage If love is a labor I'll slave till the end, I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand I've been here so long, I think that it's time to move The winter's so cold, summer's over too soon Let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow I've got some friends, some that I hardly know But we've had some times, I wouldn't trade for the world We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go We live on front porches and swing life away, We get by just fine here on minimum wage If love is a labor I'll slave till the end, I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand....until you hold my hand I'll show you mine if you show me yours first Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words We live on front porches and swing life away, We get by just fine here on minimum wage If love is a labor I'll slave till the end, I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand Swing life away [x4]
Such a classic. This song just has this chill bittersweet nostalgic vibe that just screams college to me. I miss it. I miss that time, those people, and that feeling of optimism while simultaneously becoming more world wearied through experience.
kevin wall my man I know it is. Lol I never forced it, I listened (softly) behind closed doors by myself. He just happened to hear and liked subjectively.
I was 16 when this came out. Such a time to be alive. This song reminds me of my friend who committed suicide, rise against was his favorite band. Always the memory of of us cruising of from high school with the windows down jamming this whole album will always resonate a better time. Music was something different
I was 14 in 2004 when this came out. It was the soundtrack to the biggest love and heartbreak i have ever experienced. It's almost 2022 and I'm still playing it weekly.
Got to dance with my wife to this at the concert the other night, you can’t replace the way we felt. Thanks for the fantastic music and awesome shows!!
Just saw the one In St. Louis two days ago. This song brings me the most beautiful of tears. It had been a few years since I had heard this song as siren song was an album that didn’t survive the move out from a house I lived in and I had Been listening to other music lately But when that. Song came on as the first part of the encore Oh man So many emotions flooded back I hadn’t felt in so long. Thank you Rise Against for being able to evoke such strong feelings.
Will always be my favorite song. The perfect melancholic sound. Seeing it performed live is an experience like nothing else. I cried like a baby. Beautiful track.
Haven't heard this song in forever, a high school friend posted a photo that said "Swinging life away with you" and it brought me here. Great song, great memories of my senior year in '04. 😁
One my my really great friends would sing this every day befpre school. In the alley way. He ended up commiting suicide by a gun shot to the head. Every time I hear it, it brings back the memory of his voice and his aspirations in the world. He was gay.. And the people around him didn't accept him. Please be cautious with you judge they are someone's friend. I miss him all the time. Rest easy Tim Sinder.. Love you dude!!!!
im sorry to hear, what a horrible world we live in. Rest easy Tim Sinder. I know how it is to loose people to suicide, it never gets easier on the soul. Joshua, I am sure Tim would want you to remember him in a positive light, at least with this song. Remember even though there are many assholes out there, there are still some good people, Stay happy and positive, im sure your friend would be delighted to see that. Take care Stranger, wishing you well
We used to sing this song at every house party in high school. 15 years later we our all married and this song played at every wedding with us singing along in the middle of everyone.
Who's still rockin wit Rise in 2022??? 🙋♀️ Rise Against was my hometown/high-school's FAVORITE band. I graduated in 2005 from Middletown, NJ and my class went to all their shows, jammed out to them at ALL of our parties and this song was collectively our UNOFFICIAL class graduation song. There are so many memories tied to this song that I will never, could never forget and that's exactly why music is so powerful, so profound and even one song by one band can change lives.
I'am from Portland,OR This song was played at the memorial of a very special young man named Cody Denney. He was beaten and eventually passed away from his injuries. I never heard of this song.....until I heard on the news that he had passed away. Godspeed for justice for Cody and his family💙
Went from planning a wedding with this as our first dance, to having my life turned on its head, through all of it, as a midwesterner, this song has never failed to truly describe my life.
My boyfriend played this song for me last night. As the song went on I learnt the lyrics and we started singing it together. It grew a connection I didn't know we could have, this song is gorgeous because it feels personal
This is probably one of the only videos on youtube where a guy can show his emotions about "the one" and get supportive comments instead of hate and disrespect. Nicely done.
I cannot understate how many times I have heard this song. For the time that I was with my daughter we incorporated this song EVERY night. She would sing it, I would sing it, we would listen to it and sometimes sing along. I’ve hardly seen her in four years and I still can hardly listen to my favorite song without breaking down crying. My wife knows Rise is my favorite band; she has treated me to each concert near us since we’ve been together, the best one was on (day of, not near or weekend of) my birthday in Chicago when they toured for Ghost Notes Symphonies. I just wish I could convey to Tim how much this single song after all these years has had such an impact on my life.
This song goes deep into my heart. My friend here in my town, she was murded by her boyfriend, we used to laugh and shared taste in music, she loved this song, it’s been 15 years since she left us everytime i hear this, i miss her with sadness, but also joy cause she was an amazing young girl 21 when the Unforgivable happened.. i miss you Natty, we love you. (Sweden)
I started listening to you guys before I started middle school. Now I'm graduating high school in five days. You've all been a part of my most crucial part of growing up and I wouldn't have chosen many other bands to help me along the way. The messages you spread have impacted my thought process greatly, in only positive ways. I love Rise Against, one of few bands I've been able to consistently listen to throughout my entire life. Don't stop kicking ass.
Everything about this song I love. Between the simple harmonic progressions and the tone of his voice are just so nice. :) This song couldn't have been better written.
I've known this song for a long time now and always liked it but over this weekend something happened that made it have a deeper meaning to me now that ever before... Thank the universe for music that saves our lives...
I recently lost a very close friend, possible accidentally overdose suicide. But at his showing they had this song playing. I never really listened to it before. But recently it’s been stuck in my head and it touches me everytime I hear it. 😔❤️
I'm so sorry to hear that. I can unfortunately relate to that very same scenario, coming up on 2 years since he passed in about a week. 😔❤ take care guy
I've heard a lot of different styles of music throughout my life, but the way I feel about this song hasn't changed since I first heard it 6 or 7 years ago. The meaning and emotion behind it is just beautiful. "If love is a labor, I'll slave till the end..."
My friend of 12 years just took his own life at 23 years old. This is his funeral song. It’s so sad that I knew this years ago. RIP Lewis, friend, brother, soulmate
Listening on my pergola pad with my big house and beautiful family with a view of the mountains in 2024. First heard this song lonely, heartbroken and penniless in 2005 on my ex's MySpace profile
A kid at my highschool who'd always wear black and eyeliner and that kinda stuff sat and played this on his guitar and I thought this was beautiful.. I'll never forget him
@co cheese Mgk's version of this song was released long before the feud with eminem. So your point is meaningless anyway. And RUclips isn't mgk's primary source of income. Mgk rather donates resources to his people.
"Am I loud and clear or am I breaking up am I still your charm or am I just bad luck" just got a whole new meaning for me. I was 12/13 when I sang along to this and other Rise Against songs but as English is not my first language a lot of meanings got lost in translation for me. Now nearly 20 years later I finally understand the connections and meanings between the words and it's like listening to a whole new song with whole new lyrics but a familiar melody. ❤ Edit: Also I want to grab this opportunity thanking Rise Against and similar bands I listened to through my early middle school years for teaching me a lot of English vocabulary. I always listened to their CDs and paused after some sentences to write down the lyrics and later translating it into my mother tongue. Learnt a lot of vocabulary and expressions through this normal school English wouldn't/couldn't teach.
The year is utter crap and yet somehow this song alone makes me think that things aren’t so bad. And maybe things will get better once we all remember that we’re all just people Dang it this is beautiful😭
@@soroushmoghaddam5298 it doesn't happen for most people. If it does happen, it usually doesn't last. It sucks knowing you've most likely already met your soulmate and lost them.
I forgot ablut this song and when I discovered rise against around 4 or 5 years ago, I rediscovered it, knew it already by heart, i love this song and it will forever have a special place in my heart.
Hadn’t heard it since I was a kid and the other day I was singing/playing it in a coffee shop and a lady started crying over her deceased ex. This song has touched so many people and will continue to.

Rip to your grandma. I miss my grandma.
I've listened to this for 14-15 years and despite my musical tastes changing dramatically since then, it's still one of my favorite songs
Same i'm 41 year old and mostly stopped listening to the bands I used to love when I was young, but this band good forever
2024 🎉 my boyfriend showed me this song when I was 17. Now I am 29, I am still listening it and still with the same guy! ❤
Right here with you
Saaame
Time goes by incredibly fast
Husband and I used this song for our wedding dance in 2014 😊
My wedding dance song. Married 10 years now. Together 20.

What’s your interpretation of the meaning of this song?
keep your head up, just like you said, things will get better no matter what!
I miss my nerd.
@@devonkellen483 Me too, friend. Me too.
@@NerdForWords friend. Right.
Anyone still listening in 2024?
I would die to hear this song for the first time again
Struggle is real
My wife came down the aisle to this song. Its a wonderful thing to have connected to this.
Same except not with my ex this song brings back such bad memories because of them if I go to hell I’d like to see them there
I remember hearing it for the first time during their concert, long time ago. Loved it right away.
Check out MGK and Kellin Quinns cover/remix of this.
As corny as it sounds, this band is honestly keeping me surviving right now, this song and couple others especially. I’m struggling so badly right now mentally, but every time I listen to them my mind feels relief for a bit. ❤️
Hang in there. I know what you mean as I'm in the same boat
Sending some love💞 from Kerala(India)..
Hang in there...
Hey! It's been about a month,but, how are you doing right now?
@@cmrm11 a bit better actually. My boyfriend got me tickets for one of their concerts next month, and it’s giving me something to look forward to, and motivated me to get myself healthy again, so I’m finally feeling more like myself again.
My late husband loved this song. Swing life away Duts - 12-8-1982 - 6-12-2014
Lauren Duggan May his soul rest in peace. 🙏
I'm very sorry for your loss. Far too young
was mr duggan druggin'? 31-32 is too young
Sorry for your loss Lauren. I hope time has helped some...I bet he's waiting for you on the other side.
A dollar short and a day late; I'm saddened and disappointed by your loss. I hope he rests easy. I'll be keeping you and your husband in my thoughts and prayers this holiday season.
"ive got some friends, some that I hardly know, but we've had some times I wouldn't trade for the world"
Derrick Megray swiinggg liifeee awayyy
This line makes me think of all my brothers and sisters in the Army.
That line describes some of my friends past when I grew up on the South side and then again when I lived in the western burbs.
Am I still your charm or just baaad luck....... 😔
#Facts
Been listening to this song for 20 years and will still listen when I’m 78. Rise against means so much to me
I miss my brother, whose favourite song was this. He took his own life 8years ago to another realm, but I feel him everyday. I miss you sweet angel, and I wish we met up for our final tea
You’ll see him again. You’ll get that tea.

"Swing Life Away"
Am I loud and clear, or am I breaking up?
Am I still your charm, or am I just bad luck?
Are we getting closer, or are we just getting more lost?
I'll show you mine if you show me yours first
Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words
We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand
I've been here so long, I think that it's time to move
The winter's so cold, summer's over too soon
Let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow
I've got some friends, some that I hardly know
But we've had some times, I wouldn't trade for the world
We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go
We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand....until you hold my hand
I'll show you mine if you show me yours first
Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words
We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand
Swing life away [x4]
Such a classic. This song just has this chill bittersweet nostalgic vibe that just screams college to me. I miss it. I miss that time, those people, and that feeling of optimism while simultaneously becoming more world wearied through experience.
I haven't heard this song in YEARS... I played it today and still remember every word 🖤
Me too! It was a song my brother and I would listen to with our boys
How could you forget
Showed this to my middle school class today. Trying to spread as much love as I can!
"If love is a labour, I'll slave till the end."
I felt that, even after all these years ♥️
Amen

I'm here for my daily ride on the feels train
I'm here to practice
ShellyTheSeal your profile pic has me rolling I love that picture.
Is that the one that goes screaming by before the song?

This was the first song I danced with my wife at our wedding.
So many memories!

This was my wife and I's first dance song as well. I sing it to my kids to put them to sleep now... Still my favorite song.
Same here. Nearly two years ago ☺️ I love this song
@@dantedelacroix2558 me too! nowadays my girls hum along with me.
It was me my wife's wedding song too!
I'm just thankful I had older siblings who had good music taste, because due to them, This is the music I grew up listening to.
I understand where you’re coming from!!! Much love!!! :)
Lol..... my baby bro was in the same boat, thanks to me he knows what good music is!
formlessness lucky i had to find good music on my own
kevin wall my man I know it is. Lol I never forced it, I listened (softly) behind closed doors by myself. He just happened to hear and liked subjectively.
P.S. awesome music playlist! :)
That song hits the same in 2023 ... it's a pure MASTERPIECE ❤️🔥
yes this will be one of my lifelong favourite songs ever. it's still as relatable at age 40+ as when I was in my 20's
Timeless!
I was 16 when this came out. Such a time to be alive. This song reminds me of my friend who committed suicide, rise against was his favorite band. Always the memory of of us cruising of from high school with the windows down jamming this whole album will always resonate a better time. Music was something different
Bro tf I would give anything to would've been born 10 years before
This generation is so trash, everyone being on their own being the main character
I was 14 in 2004 when this came out. It was the soundtrack to the biggest love and heartbreak i have ever experienced. It's almost 2022 and I'm still playing it weekly.
This and "Snuff" by Slipknot for me heartbreak wise.
Started listening to this at 14,
21 now, time flies and so is life.
Much love from brazil!
Music is my favorite time machine. I am astounded by how many memories can be revisited by closing your eyes and hitting play.
Got to dance with my wife to this at the concert the other night, you can’t replace the way we felt. Thanks for the fantastic music and awesome shows!!
yes i went to the one in houston and it was amazing
glad you both enjoyed yourselves, I bet it was a beautiful moment 💗🌷✨
Just saw the one In St. Louis two days ago. This song brings me the most beautiful of tears. It had been a few years since I had heard this song as siren song was an album that didn’t survive the move out from a house I lived in and I had Been listening to other music lately
But when that. Song came on as the first part of the encore
Oh man
So many emotions flooded back I hadn’t felt in so long. Thank you Rise Against for being able to evoke such strong feelings.
Wait they're touring?
I saw them in Asbury park it was awesome
Will always be my favorite song. The perfect melancholic sound. Seeing it performed live is an experience like nothing else. I cried like a baby. Beautiful track.
Saw it live in 2007 & just this year again in April. Incredible song.
Can't believe I just found this song hours ago. I've been playing it non stop for almost two hours now. 😅
Haven't heard this song in forever, a high school friend posted a photo that said "Swinging life away with you" and it brought me here. Great song, great memories of my senior year in '04. 😁
Of course we still listen to this in 2020 we're still going to listen to this in 2030
we'll, us millenials, will be ded by 2030
True bruh

One my my really great friends would sing this every day befpre school. In the alley way. He ended up commiting suicide by a gun shot to the head. Every time I hear it, it brings back the memory of his voice and his aspirations in the world. He was gay.. And the people around him didn't accept him. Please be cautious with you judge they are someone's friend. I miss him all the time. Rest easy Tim Sinder.. Love you dude!!!!
I'm sorry for your loss
I’m so so sorry for your loss.
So sorry man... Horrible that we live in a world were stuff like this is still present
im sorry to hear, what a horrible world we live in. Rest easy Tim Sinder. I know how it is to loose people to suicide, it never gets easier on the soul. Joshua, I am sure Tim would want you to remember him in a positive light, at least with this song.
Remember even though there are many assholes out there, there are still some good people, Stay happy and positive, im sure your friend would be delighted to see that.
Take care Stranger, wishing you well
The native Americans believe there is no death, only a change of worlds 🦋
U will see him again someday 💙
I'm so very much in love with this song.
We used to sing this song at every house party in high school. 15 years later we our all married and this song played at every wedding with us singing along in the middle of everyone.
Damn dude, that must be something special. Honestly im pretty jelaous .. :D. Cheers for all of ya!
Who's still rockin wit Rise in 2022??? 🙋♀️ Rise Against was my hometown/high-school's FAVORITE band. I graduated in 2005 from Middletown, NJ and my class went to all their shows, jammed out to them at ALL of our parties and this song was collectively our UNOFFICIAL class graduation song. There are so many memories tied to this song that I will never, could never forget and that's exactly why music is so powerful, so profound and even one song by one band can change lives.
I've probably been to 250+ concerts and seeing RA was in my top 5. Such an amazing show.
One of my favorite songs of Rise Against. Acoustic guitar is trully beautiful.
I'am from Portland,OR
This song was played at the memorial of a very special young man named Cody Denney. He was beaten and eventually passed away from his injuries. I never heard of this song.....until I heard on the news that he had passed away. Godspeed for justice for Cody and his family💙
2021 and still one of the Best Songs
This is such a simple and beautiful song. I find it to be so timeless between the lyrics and Tim's vocals.
My friends and I listened to this song on the way to graduation the year it came out, it will always be special to me.
Heard this song for the first time when i was 5 years old. Now im 19 and it has never left my playlists. Such a stronh song ❤
Went from planning a wedding with this as our first dance, to having my life turned on its head, through all of it, as a midwesterner, this song has never failed to truly describe my life.
RA used to be my favorite in 7th and 8th grade and im just starting to get into them again
At least you like Of mice & men according to your profile picture!
Yess i love them
My boyfriend played this song for me last night. As the song went on I learnt the lyrics and we started singing it together. It grew a connection I didn't know we could have, this song is gorgeous because it feels personal
One of the best songs ever written. The Beatles wish they wrote a song this American folk.
Anyone asking “still listening 2020?” Were always here. Swing life away.
Tim is so talented, it's actually ridiculous.
Man...going through a heartbreak right now. This song makes me smile.
Same here man. But this song is always gonna be a classic
Heard someone playing this at the airport today. I got hit with so many emotions. I hadn't heard it in over a decade.
this was the song that my cousin had play at his funeral, he was a good man. this song brought me the happiness i needed to walk the path.
Rip
still my favorite song for 10 years, sucks getting older
sean driscoll yup. Wow this song was out when I was 8 years old. I've been a fan for 11 years!? Crazy
How’s life?
But getting old is better than the alternative
@@flyingsword135 you mean die young? yeah, probably
Growing old Is getting old.
This is probably one of the only videos on youtube where a guy can show his emotions about "the one" and get supportive comments instead of hate and disrespect. Nicely done.

This song means a lot to me. Never forget the people you love.
This song makes me wish I would had enjoyed my youth more longer. Enjoy your life till the fullest because when your older your gonna miss it
Rise against is such an awesome band. This song became my favourite as soon as I heard it.
From the moment I heard "Make It Stop," I was hooked. I was so shocked when I saw them live several years later. Such an amazing concert.
"I've got some friends
some that I hardly know
we've had some times
I wouldn't trade for the world."
This was me and my little sisters favorite song. we listened to this everyday on the way to school. I miss her so much.
This song should be sung with arms around friends/family and drinks in hand 🖤
I haven't heard this song in years but it would still pop into my head often. Timeless
Everything about this song I love. Between the simple harmonic progressions and the tone of his voice are just so nice. :) This song couldn't have been better written.
Oh, to be in your late teens early twenties again with the knowledge of an almost 40 year old....nostalgia is a sweet ride.
Heaving some heart problems thos song is really uplifting me so thank u for the music
Here for my daily feels dose.
After so many years, this song still hits the deepest parts.
Lost my childhood bestfriend today drug overdosed I'm 31 he was 35. Thus was our song. This was every ones song... tears every time now that I'm grown

U gotta hear this :) !!! :)
I've known this song for a long time now and always liked it but over this weekend something happened that made it have a deeper meaning to me now that ever before... Thank the universe for music that saves our lives...
I’ve heard this song like 8 times and never realized it was Rise Against
This is one of the songs my parents would play in the car often when I was little. Probably my favorite song ever.
wow this song brings so many good memories... I listened to this when I was a teen now I'm 24.
I'm a teen and now I'm listening to this song ...feel old yet lol xD
+Isaac Sandoval and of course you use xD
i listened to this at 13 now im almost 22
+Isaac Sandoval also a teen. Just so you know "XD" is a little cringeworthy
Teen as well
"No this isnt just a phase! This is WHO I am !" -Anthony Ducote 2006 The year is 2022 and yea it definitely was not a phase...
I recently lost a very close friend, possible accidentally overdose suicide. But at his showing they had this song playing. I never really listened to it before. But recently it’s been stuck in my head and it touches me everytime I hear it. 😔❤️
I'm so sorry to hear that. I can unfortunately relate to that very same scenario, coming up on 2 years since he passed in about a week. 😔❤ take care guy
I've heard a lot of different styles of music throughout my life, but the way I feel about this song hasn't changed since I first heard it 6 or 7 years ago. The meaning and emotion behind it is just beautiful.
"If love is a labor, I'll slave till the end..."
My friend of 12 years just took his own life at 23 years old. This is his funeral song. It’s so sad that I knew this years ago. RIP Lewis, friend, brother, soulmate
My condolences
R.I.P lewis ...he sounds like he was a really cool dude, it sucks the good friends are the ones we lose 😢😢
Listening on my pergola pad with my big house and beautiful family with a view of the mountains in 2024. First heard this song lonely, heartbroken and penniless in 2005 on my ex's MySpace profile
sometimes theres a time when songs are made that defines generation ....this song is almost 20 years old can you believe it ? youre so old now :D
A kid at my highschool who'd always wear black and eyeliner and that kinda stuff sat and played this on his guitar and I thought this was beautiful.. I'll never forget him
Came here after MGK's version of it. And I'm thankful for being introduced to such a gem of a song!
@co cheese Mgk's version of this song was released long before the feud with eminem. So your point is meaningless anyway. And RUclips isn't mgk's primary source of income. Mgk rather donates resources to his people.
Glad the trash version brought you to the OG
@axiom the great. bruh that version was long before the eminem song. Get over it. How many VMAs did Em win this year?
Mgks was trash anyways. Glad it brought you to the og
@@Ethan9988 I'm a listener of all genres but MGK's version is way better than this, btw this original thing sounds boring.
"Am I loud and clear or am I breaking up am I still your charm or am I just bad luck" just got a whole new meaning for me. I was 12/13 when I sang along to this and other Rise Against songs but as English is not my first language a lot of meanings got lost in translation for me. Now nearly 20 years later I finally understand the connections and meanings between the words and it's like listening to a whole new song with whole new lyrics but a familiar melody. ❤
Edit: Also I want to grab this opportunity thanking Rise Against and similar bands I listened to through my early middle school years for teaching me a lot of English vocabulary. I always listened to their CDs and paused after some sentences to write down the lyrics and later translating it into my mother tongue. Learnt a lot of vocabulary and expressions through this normal school English wouldn't/couldn't teach.
2021 and this song still hits on a different level 🖤🔥
MUSiC iS THE CURE!
GOD iTS SO TRUE!
Rise Against I thank you for pausing the pain :)
My favorite song. One that make you feel that hard times are meant to live happily and give your best when it is unexpected.
Ive cried to this song more times then i could ever count.
The year is utter crap and yet somehow this song alone makes me think that things aren’t so bad. And maybe things will get better once we all remember that we’re all just people
Dang it this is beautiful😭
My exact feels right now
That song that touches our soul and makes us think (and rethink) many things
2023 and iv only discovered this gem 💎
You have no idea how much I miss Chicago.
Me and my husband's song since we were 14. 😋 now were 24.
The dream. I had a girl I wanted to marry.
@@soroushmoghaddam5298 it doesn't happen for most people. If it does happen, it usually doesn't last. It sucks knowing you've most likely already met your soulmate and lost them.
Lucky you
@@theremedy9171 It could always happen later on. The perfect relationship with your true soulmate comes unexpected most of the time.
Mine and my wifes since we were 17. Now were 31. 😊
Like a fine wine this song only get better as time goes by. ❤😍
I forgot ablut this song and when I discovered rise against around 4 or 5 years ago, I rediscovered it, knew it already by heart, i love this song and it will forever have a special place in my heart.
I can watch Rise Against videos for hours on end and still won't be bored!!!!
This was my 2007 graduation song! Congrats 2020, definitely a year that will be remembered!❤💛💜💚💙
Such a beautiful song.
So very nostalgic to listen to this song... It will be always my favorite RIse Against songs on my lifetime.
Hadn’t heard it since I was a kid and the other day I was singing/playing it in a coffee shop and a lady started crying over her deceased ex. This song has touched so many people and will continue to.
This song will forever hold a place.
