This is the first time I’ve come back to this video in years. This video and album is already 7 years old, and the thought of that makes me so emotional. When this album came out, I was probably in 8th grade, going into 9th, and at one of the worst times of my life in terms of my mental health. I wanted to give up, I wanted to quit fighting. I know Danny and the guys hate being seen as “idols” and I understand they, like many celebrities just wish to be seen again as normal people. But this album, and specifically this song were key parts in me finding the strength to keep going everyday, and to be at the point I am now in my life. I’m 21 years old now, I never thought I’d live past 14. I’m engaged to my best friend, someone I didn’t believe I was good enough for at 14, that I drove away from feeling as if I wouldn’t be the one for her. I have my own apartment, car, we have our two lil cats now, one of which I’ve had since just before this album came out. My life isn’t great, but it’s so much better than I ever thought it would be. I know Danny continued to struggle for the next 5-6 years with drugs and alcohol, but this album was the beginning to so much change and happiness for him. And I’m so glad to say I grew up and discovered happiness in a lot of the same ways, along the same time, as guys that I really believe our heroes not just for me, but their fan base, and the industry as a whole. This album, this band, their legacy, will be something I carry with me forever.
Sounds like a pretty great life to me man 🙂 We all had our times of depression and. bands/artists like this are a big help to getting out of those types of funks. I'm glad to hear things in your life have made a drastic turn around for the better.
@@derpderpin1568Huh? The first three were the OGs. FDTD had the perfect blend of arena/hard rock and metal core. The direction they SHOULD have gone in going forward in 2013-2014. It was AALP5 that truly became a decline for AA IMHO.
When my bandmate said we would be doing this song as cover at battle of the bands in a 2 months I didn't realise what I was in for as a guitarist, still can't argue it's AA man
I'm a fan of this band since their first album, and for me they are getting better and better. Of course the style isn't the same, but if you're looking for the same musics, then just put the old ones on replay. I love AA, their music changed me so much, and help me a lot.
The first time I heard Danny talk was on a Bryan Stars interview with Andy Biersack and he sounded so sweet and then I looked it up and I was like holy shlit how does one have such a sweet small calming voice and then sing like this?!
"You won't be alone in the end" "You don't have to be afraid" Lord knows how many of us needed to hear this in high school (2014 for was my senior year) Thank You AA, for everything you've done for your fans
One of the darkest times in my life, this songs was with me. Now that everything is better I remember it with love and nostalgic. Thanks AA for letting me discharge my fury and then have hope.
Watch our new video for ALONE AGAIN - ruclips.net/video/J1G9DU4Rc9c/видео.html Presave/Preorder our new album 'See What's On The Inside' - askingalexandria.ffm.to/swoti
Dude, this music video is legendary. I mean, they captured possibly one of the best pyros and stage effects ever. Rock and Roll needs fire and smoke machines. If I were a rockstar, I'd light every venue up like the 4th of July.
when this song came out i was 14 and it helped me so so much during my depression... when i was 15 for my birthday i tattoed "run free" with ben's handwriting on my wrist so i could never forget how to live my life and have hope... im almost 18 now and though i grew out of this ~emo phase~ it feels so good to come back here once in a while and remember what i went through and how this band helped me and its so good to carry this part of my life with me... the emo world really isnt the same anymore but i feel emotional and so thankful i got to experience its glory days. Now that danny's coming back im just so nostalgic it would be so good to have them back like they were... im still so emo af on the inside tho iT IS NOT A PHASE LIKE DEEP DOWN IN MY HEART I WILL ALWAYS BE EMO AND I THINK THATS BEAUTIFUL
I literally just some them play this live and my heart melted out of my body. Danny sings so ducking good, it's amazing. Best concert I've ever been too.
You people need to stop judging their change. I like this stage in their career. If you don't like this stage go back to their older stuff and stop complaining
My favorite Asking Alexandria album so far. And there's absolutely nothing wrong with danny's voice. especially his screams. People should be glad quality music is still being produced. I agree with you 100%.
Definitely! Took me a while to get into the new album, but I think its their best yet! Takes a really great band to constantly change and keep with the times!
I love the fact they have grown with their audience, as we mature so do they keeping there music new and exciting (also I was there at the gig in this music video in London, really want to see them again)
I think Denis alot better than Danny is I hope he does smarten up as well but it hasn't been that long so I'll guess we will see how things go with Denis
Andy Radke Danny worsnop always be the only singer for this band its change the band then you change the style then no one will listen to it because it's not what the fans loved so much
i love the lyrics to the breakdown, they're fucking awesome! (if you don't know them, here they are) Move! Close your eyes and pray for something better than This world has to give! Make it worth your time when you move on to Whatever the hell is next! Know that you went in the end without a single Regret! That you lived and loved and laughed and cried and Followed your dreams!
lol sry, i never intended to write this to you... it was for some guy that said that this was the hardest satanic death metal song he had ever heard... i think that now the comment will make sense now
This world's yours for the taking This world's yours for the taking This world's yours for the taking Run free Run free and wild, lose your mind, Escape your inhibitions Taste the wind, let your hair down, throw your hands up Go, go, go, let go forget the consequences Go, go, go, let go running free Open your heart, open your mind to a new world, to a new world Spread out your wings and learn to fly to a new world, to a new world This world's yours for the taking This world's yours for the taking This world's yours for the taking Run free Run free and wild, lose your mind, this world's yours for the taking Open wide, scream it loud this is my life Go, go, go, let go, forget what came before Go, go, go, let go running free Open your heart, open your mind to a new world, to a new world Spread out your wings and learn to fly to a new world, to a new world Close your eyes and pray for something better than this world has to give Make it worth your time when you move on to whatever the hell is next Know that you went in the end without a single regret That you lived and loved and laughed and cried and followed your dreams You won't, you won't be alone in the end You don't have to be afraid You won't, you won't be alone in the end You don't have to be afraid Run free and wild, let your heart soar with the eagles Run free and wild, let your love take over You won't be alone in the end You don't have to be afraid
2 years before this video dropped, the song had already dropped. I had it on repeat on my journey from leaving my parents home to a job our in the middle of nowhere. Life was simple.
Maaan… When this song first came out, I was going into my sophomore year in high school and my best friend was going into his senior year. We’d sing this song every time it came on. Just walking around town, playing hacky sack, jamming out, getting in trouble (not too much, just enough to make memories) you know, just being kids. He passed away 2015 at 19 years old due to a heatstroke. Miss that fuckin guy.🤘🏽
That's a VERY good question. I would assume you've fallen into the trap of assuming this band actually has something relevant to say in the form of a couple of repetitive slogans. It couldn't be the music, that's just ridiculous.
What do you mean "applicable"? You basically said to that person that the music is not effecting her feelings. Mentally, a person can be set off by anything OF RELATION to his or her own problems.
You're assuming things I didn't say, that's what I meant. You get on your moral high horse if you want, but assess the situation before you barge on in.
If you can't admit that Asking Alexandria has improved leaps and bounds not only as people but also musicians, you've got some kind of problem. Legit, the hate on this band is so childish now.
This dude's voice is next level.
It's not dude, It's Danny
Close to Human Music i can make mine from his to cradle of filth
Close to Human Music Danny Worsnop?
That is called "Feeling it".
Wtf is even being said here?

It's real I feel that
Stand Up and Scream and Reckless and Relentless were soooooo much better than this album. Everything they did after R&R was terrible.
@@derpderpin1568 shut up and let people enjoy things you urchin
had the same fucking feeling today. I was 20 yo,now i m 30,. :)))))
I miss this specific era of asking Alexandria. This song is so fucking underrated. His mix of vocals are fucking epic.
It is a very good song indeed.
i used to use their music to practice my own vocals
No way. Stand Up and Scream and Reckless and Relentless were soooooo much better than this album. Everything they did after R&R was terrible.
@@derpderpin1568 they're aint young, not everyone has great throat for long term
Sooo underrated
every time I listen to this song I get chills
Same
+Kayla Kukan It's powerful as fuck!
+Kayla Kukan same
ikr
yes
nostalgia high school memories 😢
I'm not gonna hate how they are now, but this era of Asking is something special !
its my daily
forever, man
Stand Up and Scream and Reckless and Relentless were soooooo much better than this album. Everything they did after R&R was terrible.
this is the mf real AA!
@@derpderpin1568Huh? The first three were the OGs. FDTD had the perfect blend of arena/hard rock and metal core. The direction they SHOULD have gone in going forward in 2013-2014. It was AALP5 that truly became a decline for AA IMHO.
They just needed one more album like this
Ble-Onk Dance Gavin Dance 🔥🔥😍🤘🏻
Ble-Onk Wait few months..Danny is back i think they got some big project
Lol this record was considered a sell-out at the time..
@@FartsTasteDelicious how?
It didnt age well
One of the most beautiful songs ever written ❤
I love how Danny's voice gets better and better with every album
He had throat surgery due to damage.
so actually its getting worse each album
Faith Hurley He didn't mean his singing, he meant the condition of his throat. It is in bad shape.
MinettyTheYeti how did he damage his throat?
thy_art_is_cats God is really fear man. when danny throat getting worse the voices gets better. it sounds like country singer
Wow... I think I'm falling in love with this band.
you better do it!! :D
They're amazing
I'm already in love with Asking Alexandria. Very perfect band
yes you are right, I just fell in love. Drummer sweep, the singer has a great voice. Well, the guitar. Active knocks on his knees.
Rachel Luchtman Everybody dies, but the music is the fans. This is the greatest achievement of the team.
whoever recorded and edited this video needs to get mad props for it. freaking awesome!
Still my absolute favorite song! Whenever Im having a hard time I come back to this over and over again. Thank goodness danny is back!
When my bandmate said we would be doing this song as cover at battle of the bands in a 2 months I didn't realise what I was in for as a guitarist, still can't argue it's AA man
I'm a fan of this band since their first album, and for me they are getting better and better. Of course the style isn't the same, but if you're looking for the same musics, then just put the old ones on replay.
I love AA, their music changed me so much, and help me a lot.
Our new album #SeeWhatsOnTheInside out now! askingalexandria.ffm.to/swoti
Damn Danny we miss you man. So glad you're doing your thing and that AA got a new vocalist. But you're a legend, always will be.
Even after ALL THIS TIME, the first time he says “You won’t be alone in the end / you don’t have to be afraid” always makes me feel emotional af
The first time I heard Danny talk was on a Bryan Stars interview with Andy Biersack and he sounded so sweet and then I looked it up and I was like holy shlit how does one have such a sweet small calming voice and then sing like this?!
"You won't be alone in the end"
"You don't have to be afraid"
Lord knows how many of us needed to hear this in high school (2014 for was my senior year)
Thank You AA, for everything you've done for your fans
Still the best song absolute greatness in every way 🙌💚😜💚
One of the darkest times in my life, this songs was with me. Now that everything is better I remember it with love and nostalgic. Thanks AA for letting me discharge my fury and then have hope.

Dude, this music video is legendary. I mean, they captured possibly one of the best pyros and stage effects ever. Rock and Roll needs fire and smoke machines. If I were a rockstar, I'd light every venue up like the 4th of July.

Only reason this is my favorite track off that record is cuz Dead isn't available in the US
Well now im curious and anxious to hear Dead. its by Asking right?
Cody Leblanc sure is mate .
Old asking Alexandria = best asking Alexandria

This song hits me in the heart...
Danny did this song live so well!!!

+dakiz1 it's pretty good imo
This song gives me so much hope. The lyrics really hit my heart. Loved AA from day 1!

One of my favorite AA songs. I come back to this video so often ❤️
I literally just some them play this live and my heart melted out of my body. Danny sings so ducking good, it's amazing. Best concert I've ever been too.
To this day, the range his voice reaches gives me chills, it's so sick.

@@HatesLife247 what about now? You like this band?
Every year i come back to this video, i was there in Brixton the night they filmed it and it was absolutely unreal.
I like how many new fans their getting from this new record and all of us veterans are just like
-_- we told you they were good
" veterans "
***** What?
youtube has veterans? ._.
***** No, Asking Alexandria does tho -__-
I agree ahaa! Fan from day one!
Oh how i miss this level of ENERGY
That groove in the chorus is bussin’. If you say you weren’t bobbing your head along, you’re a damn liar💯😂
Que buenos tiempos
they've reallllyyyy matured, havent listened to any of the newest album until now, really impressed with how they've grown.
Uma das melhores músicas do asking Alexandria❤run free❤
Karina Sousa sim

Isso é emo ou é post hardcore?
Heard a thousand times about this band but this is the first time I listen to them and it's amazing :o
welcome to the fandom there's no escape :3
Thank you! :P

I was 13 when this came out I moved to USA the next day it came out
This song makes me way too emotional
i love the lyrics to the breakdown, they're fucking awesome!
(if you don't know them, here they are)
Move!
Close your eyes and pray for something better than
This world has to give!
Make it worth your time when you move on to
Whatever the hell is next!
Know that you went in the end without a single
Regret!
That you lived and loved and laughed and cried and
Followed your dreams!
you have just depressed me...
Gonzalo Valdez why? the breakdown is beast
lol sry, i never intended to write this to you... it was for some guy that said that this was the hardest satanic death metal song he had ever heard... i think that now the comment will make sense now

No matter how much Danny changed his vocals. It always sounded amazing and fit perfectly with AA. FDTD was one of my faves.
You don't have to be afraid 🖤
Every time I listen to this song it brings me close to tears
Are you homosexual?
No, are you
?

So because someone has emotions that means that they are gay? Yeah, you make sence!

I swear such a beautiful song
to me, it's just not a song, it is a memory
No one else a voice like danny, the best metal vocalist for me 🤘
I forgot about this song. It’s been years.
You can't help but head bang to Asking Alexandria and black veil brides and EVERY OTHER BAND LIKE THIS!!
I am so happy that Danny's back
This world's yours for the taking
This world's yours for the taking
This world's yours for the taking
Run free
Run free and wild, lose your mind,
Escape your inhibitions
Taste the wind, let your hair down, throw your hands up
Go, go, go, let go forget the consequences
Go, go, go, let go running free
Open your heart, open your mind to a new world, to a new world
Spread out your wings and learn to fly to a new world, to a new world
This world's yours for the taking
This world's yours for the taking
This world's yours for the taking
Run free
Run free and wild, lose your mind, this world's yours for the taking
Open wide, scream it loud this is my life
Go, go, go, let go, forget what came before
Go, go, go, let go running free
Open your heart, open your mind to a new world, to a new world
Spread out your wings and learn to fly to a new world, to a new world
Close your eyes and pray for something better than this world has to give
Make it worth your time when you move on to whatever the hell is next
Know that you went in the end without a single regret
That you lived and loved and laughed and cried and followed your dreams
You won't, you won't be alone in the end
You don't have to be afraid
You won't, you won't be alone in the end
You don't have to be afraid
Run free and wild, let your heart soar with the eagles
Run free and wild, let your love take over
You won't be alone in the end
You don't have to be afraid
2 years before this video dropped, the song had already dropped. I had it on repeat on my journey from leaving my parents home to a job our in the middle of nowhere. Life was simple.
Good times right here. It’ll be a dream if they released another album like this. Stay safe everyone. ❤
This is my lullaby ;)
This is one of my favorite songs Asking Alexandria has produced
Maaan… When this song first came out, I was going into my sophomore year in high school and my best friend was going into his senior year. We’d sing this song every time it came on. Just walking around town, playing hacky sack, jamming out, getting in trouble (not too much, just enough to make memories) you know, just being kids. He passed away 2015 at 19 years old due to a heatstroke. Miss that fuckin guy.🤘🏽
I will always come back to this song... Still to this day gives me goose bumps
Can't say im much of a fan of AA but got damn, Danny's vocal's is eargasm..
Amo essa música
Quién no :'3
how have i never heard that breakdown at 2:20
those vocals were heavy!
only took me 8 years ..
Honestly one of the best songs I've ever heard
Same.
i cryed when danny left asking alexandria
Same lmao
omg
PQP a voz do Danny é magnífica!

Thank you Asking Alexandria for making me believe that things can actually get better. Lately I found friends through your music. AA FAMILY FOREVER 💜
O final desta música é muito top!!!

That's a VERY good question. I would assume you've fallen into the trap of assuming this band actually has something relevant to say in the form of a couple of repetitive slogans. It couldn't be the music, that's just ridiculous.
King Dingin how do you know? Everyone's feelings do- not act the same :(
Sardey Sykes Fuentes Urie To what are you referring to in my comment? I don't think your comment is really applicable.
What do you mean "applicable"? You basically said to that person that the music is not effecting her feelings. Mentally, a person can be set off by anything OF RELATION to his or her own problems.
You're assuming things I didn't say, that's what I meant. You get on your moral high horse if you want, but assess the situation before you barge on in.

their prime was this album. their best work no doubt
