Recovery Record got me here so many years ago! Thank you RR and all of you who also won this beautiful, meaningful song! It changed my life. Anorexia is no way to live, just a slow suicide. We are "Skycrapers!" ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I've been listening to this song all week. This is the first time I've heard this "live" version. It's even better than the studio cut. I agree: one of the most "under-rated bands out there.
I've gigged for years. @0:31 the drummer does a thumbs down.....to the sound guy to tell him his monitor is blasting him. He does it a few more times. It must have been torching his ass up.
whoa... this is cool. I like the weird change-up they threw in at the end; almost made the song danceable. I just saw them Saturday in Atlanta, and this song might have been the highlight of the show... these Georgia boys rock the house.
For I never knew you. I spit you out...lthe words are script. The enemy gave you phones have you been listening to the sounds and lyrics. Playing for years. Truth is in lyrics...MY MUSICA....lfree to all who listens...feel me...down to your soul
Ya know, as long as they keep putting out kick ass music like this, I don't know why anyone cares 'who's doin who' - seriously! p.s. thanks for posting such a great video - I love it!
@Brugality how is this unispired?? you have no idea!! this version is totally kick ass!! Ed Told me one of the times i was privillaged enough to be in his presents that all you need is 1 positive person to make 100 people as positive as you are!!..... My friend you seem to not have one ounce of positiveness inside you, best to keep your negitivity to yourself!!
yea its weird how that works. some stuff sounds like its a full step down when its really only a half step down. A lot of stuff is easier to sing a half step down as well . I'm sure thats why they play it like that live
dude my favorite one is the Al Di Meola "Prism"...it is a piece of heaven wrapped in a most impressive package...check it out on the PRS web site...all their Private stocks are incredible!
not that i like metal or even play it, but i know that metal heads (with money) love PRS cause they are so versatile, not too mention they sound better than anything on the commercial market.
you must know nothing about this band if you think they were ever underrated. people just say that just to say it because it's a typical line. even on youtube videos for the beatles people say that. collective soul was pretty big in the 90's.
I liked Collective Soul in the 90's and never understood how they didn't last but watching this performance explains it. They suck live. That said, Wasting Time is one of my favorite songs ever. Look it up if u don't know that song
love collective soul & their songs(brilliant) but lead singer/guitarist doesn't seem to gel with his band mates.this is only what i have watched off utube
One of the few bands that sound just as good live as they do in a recording studio.....true talent!
Lead, Rhythm, Bass and Ed --- one of the great bands around!
too bad we don't have this music today need some rockers out there
You will always have your critics, this band is kick ass and this song...
Best looking man i have ever seen. Beautiful
love this song.. and his curly shoulder length hair too. :)
Collective Soul you are one of the greatest band I've ever known... Love love love it

This song was part of my childhood I grew up in the 90s so this song holds a place for me if that makes any sense
showmanship with character, and a great musician and song writer to boot.
I've been listening to this song all week. This is the first time I've heard this "live" version. It's even better than the studio cut. I agree: one of the most "under-rated bands out there.
I love this guy.................he is super cool...............
Haha, I saw them in Huntsville too! And hell yeah, best band there. People were standing in the rain just to see them and had an amazing time.
i miss the 90s...
I miss the old members of collective soul😔
sweet rockin song of the 90's
Every decade has its gems and its coals. Its the balance of music that has existed since man first beat a bone to the ground.
The best live version of this song in my opinion
Love this performance!
Collective Soul is timeless.
Love this song. I'm glad my friend showed me this band.
Saw them live in vancouver 2010 olympic venue!! Best show on earth!!
Loved your concert please come back to Thunder Bay again ,,favorite song
From one PK to another...awesome Ed!
Ed Roland is a star, love Collective Soul
This song was actually one of my favorite songs growing up as a kid and I doubt anyone's reading this
I am ..lol
I like the difference in this over the recorded one +1
Collective Soul is criminally underrated.
very hansom singer!
saw them years ago at the Shriner here in Billings Montana, they fucking ROCK!!!!
First comment! ...
And what a performance !! ...Two thumbs up!
Amazing voice Amazing Collective Souls
I've gigged for years. @0:31 the drummer does a thumbs down.....to the sound guy to tell him his monitor is blasting him. He does it a few more times. It must have been torching his ass up.
@Shaun Howard it was too loud. Drowning.
I really like the fact that the band added a solo to this song. Hearing the same version can get old.
ive seen these guys back in 96 differ now maybe I love collective soul im in there world in 96
Great song
whoa... this is cool. I like the weird change-up they threw in at the end; almost made the song danceable. I just saw them Saturday in Atlanta, and this song might have been the highlight of the show... these Georgia boys rock the house.
Love the alternate version of this song, much quicker at the end. Awesome : ). Collective Soul and Poets of the Fall my fav alltime rockband.
Grab a beerrrrrr!🍻🍻
Geez why weren't these guys the most popular band in the world? Such talent...............
sweet pick'in!
Clear gem. One for the ages.
collective soul is so much bigger then they really are
i love this band and this tune
best collective soul song.
My college crush ❤
Great Tune, Great Band

Who cares about his personal life? It´s a great music from a great band.

This is good shit. Stop hating its bad for your health.
In the cd Collective Soul by Collective Soul
@Brugality how is this unispired?? you have no idea!! this version is totally kick ass!! Ed Told me one of the times i was privillaged enough to be in his presents that all you need is 1 positive person to make 100 people as positive as you are!!..... My friend you seem to not have one ounce of positiveness inside you, best to keep your negitivity to yourself!!
WOW that solo
The 3 guitarist are signed to PRS...they are all playing Paul Reed Smiths, probably the custom 24 and/or 22
LINDA'S SONG DONT FORGET FRIDAY NIGHT IN KANSAS TO DEDICATE MY FAVORITE ALL TIME SONG TO ME PLEASE
yea its weird how that works. some stuff sounds like its a full step down when its really only a half step down. A lot of stuff is easier to sing a half step down as well . I'm sure thats why they play it like that live
Better than the original... turn it on!
a lot of bands tune up to standard when recording because when recording a half step down or more. music seems to sound to dark depending on the song
Goods
dude my favorite one is the Al Di Meola "Prism"...it is a piece of heaven wrapped in a most impressive package...check it out on the PRS web site...all their Private stocks are incredible!
NICE SOLO BY JOEL! 4:27
not that i like metal or even play it, but i know that metal heads (with money) love PRS cause they are so versatile, not too mention they sound better than anything on the commercial market.
3:38 - Swag booster engaged
I like very much this song, would be great if someone put the lyrics on it. (sorry for my bad english).
you must know nothing about this band if you think they were ever underrated.
people just say that just to say it because it's a typical line. even on youtube videos for the beatles people say that.
collective soul was pretty big in the 90's.
Hey all you guys that are looking at this video. What did the girl do to Ed to make him so ANGRY!!??
Collective Soul....read.
are you guys born again? seems god is speaking toyou
Jump through it Ed
@JaredG24 this kicks ass......
They need a Hammond B3 in there
Check out my version of Collective Soul's December!
@pillhead30mg its not just you. tempo reduced :)
man their guitar player can shred a mean solo. and their drummer plays with is one stick classical grip and backwards. never seen that before
must be a major in marching band and prolly more comfortable for him to hit his snares that way...I'm about to look into it lol
Something about long hair. Those where the days.
there is a possibility its a Carvin California Top .... maybe PRS tho
What year is this? The video was put put in 07 but when was this performance?
acutally i think its calming but the solo adds a kick to it
Haters gonna Hate! Rock on Maressa \m/
dude sorry to disturb u but this song is december idont know wat u think it is but this song is called December
I used to think he was singing "just took my son to a drugged-up man" (instead of "just turn my sun....") lol
looks like hes floating on stage
plus it's on several movies, tv shows when they have another sad sack scene for depressed fools.
I liked Collective Soul in the 90's and never understood how they didn't last but watching this performance explains it. They suck live. That said, Wasting Time is one of my favorite songs ever. Look it up if u don't know that song
@liltommy69 By ya muddah?
is it just me or does the guitar sound different.
slick move to slow the tempo....
singer kinda looks like chad kroger
love collective soul & their songs(brilliant) but lead singer/guitarist doesn't seem to gel with his band mates.this is only what i have watched off utube
