I swear, Alex Vargas on this song and "Sun and Moon" and Ashley Tomberlin on "Can't Sleep" off Tri-State can seriously make me curl up and cry like a child. This just broke me down and built me right back up. Never heard A&B acoustic before but my god.....
There was a time, there was a place But there was fear inside A witty line to save my face A parachute of pride To cross the line takes a tiny step But will the spark cause the bridge to burn My fear entwined with my regret I beat a path for safe return So here we are, we're just the same And you will never know My secret plan, how close we came To share another road And have I lost my only chance To tell you how I feel inside? Is it just me, I'd like to know Or are we all just a little blind? There's a thing called love that we all forget And it's a wasted love that we all regret You live your life just once So don't forget, forget about a thing called LOVE
It fits perfectly during these hopeless, tumultuous times 2020. Where people are divided. Humanity has been forgotten.. we forgot the thing called LOVE
Luckily, love can never be forgotten eternally. Maybe we can forget it temporarily, but it keeps coming back, stronger and purer than it was before. I'm looking forward to this comeback that we're all working on!
Alex Vargus's voice just gave me some crazy chills. Choosing him for the acoustic album was a great selection. He really brings out the emotion of the lyrics.
I would like to thank a girl , who made me listen to such wonderful songs. She stays 700 miles away from my home but lives 24*7 in my mind. I feel so positive just by thinking about her.
I love Tony's smile at 3:40 after hearing that beautiful piece by Alex. That smile says it all. Must be so fulfilling to hear your song sung so beautifully...
When I first met my fiance she suffered bad with mental health and sleep I showed her this song she instantly fell in love with it and calmed her she sleeps a little bit better now thank you

Omg I’ve been stuck on this song forever. Alex’s voice at around the 3min mark is soo emotional to me. I feel so much with just his voice, no words. What a beautiful voice this man has. He touched my soul and fills me with so much feeling.
This version is extraordinarily beautiful and meaningful. Listening to the one with Richard Bedford I am thinking - why would you do something like that to such a pristine song?!... These lyrics deserve to be sang just like guys did it here, classy and touching. That's the way to go!
Bedford still added his special touch to all his A&B songs i wish he could have at least performed 1-2 songs at this show too bad, probably wanted a big pay out or wasnt available
First time I have ever heard this song is this acoustic version. Maybe if I had heard any of original ones before I would feel differently. But starting with such high standard, I think that any other version is just not good enough ;)

The acoustic version is simply the best. This song means a lot to me. It was this song that gave me the strength and courage to ask this girl out and tell her about my feelings for her. Unfortunately she changed her mind and now she ignores me. However I still believe that she will change her mind again - this time for the good of both of us. I would just like to say one big "thank you" to Above & Beyond for making such good and positive music. It sure helps me get through some dark days in my life. But love will be back, someday, anyday, maybe even today :)
Listen I am from Hackney and was bought up to a wide range of music when the first pioneer private rave stations started in the 80's as a kid like sunrise and kiss fm.... and listening to reggae, etc... These guys are unbelievable and proper artist who know their stuff. All those stupid people who put their thumbs down are all crazy and have no clue in music and the rave music scene.... They are proper musicians and one of best DJ's around the world catering people from all ages, from all walks of life around the world and having sell out gigs.. Truly Masters of their craft! Well Done Boys giving pleasure to people with your music.... angelo..
when you were just about to open your heart, then you knew is going to nowhere but you still believe....then you broken. His voice is so hypnotize, the lyrics and music just merge...vulnerable in the pouring rain
Después de DIOS, está Above & Beyond. amo a este grupo. Yo MEXICANO AMO ESTA MÚSICA. ABOVE... VEN A MÉXICO, Yo vivo en León, Gto. , México... Sería un milagro que vinieran aquí a mi rancho hermoso que lo AMO!!!
@@mariodiaz3400 Saludos, y se hizo realidad el ir a verlos a Monterrey, en abril 2019, no vino a León, pero vino a mi país. Que gran sorpresa me llevé. Saludos. Buena noche.
I literally to Above and Beyond songs since 2015 till now , every time I feel everything , music , melodies , emotion , vocal and , take me to another world of Universe , ❤❤❤✌
these guys & girls must be some of the most talented & understated musicians on the planet! no other genre of music fills me with such emotion the way trance music does,from club anthems to acoustic down tempos! thumbs up once again for Above & Beyond !!!
Fantastic acoustic version. Quite amazed and pleased to have stumbled onto this by "accident" - Serendipity at it's finest. This is really well orchestrated and is full of life and love. You can feel they all are very connected and alive with the meaning of the song.
I am loving the solid three part harmony in the chorus section this evening. It is so strong and pure - well done Alex, Annie, and Zoe. I love your very fine work. Regards.
Who still here 2024 listening to this amazing track
Cannot believe it’s been 10 years since this happened 🥲
5 years now, i'm still listening.
It's 2024 guys, anybody here with me?
Never left...
I am
Me from Bali😊
Yep
Always!
8 years and still here...who else?
I look forward to seeing them in an acoustic setting
Vargas' voice is other worldly, sublime
This song is a symphony of emotions. People who missed their chance to be with their only true love will feel the burn inside, while listening to it.
I burned my chance after 7 years and 2 children.. my heart bleeds and my eyes are never dry..
Your one true love walks by you every day.
Ah such pain. I feel the burn inside.
So true!
The only comment that makes sense . ❤
3:39 Tony is so proud. Perfect everything
Here is why everyone loves A&B
I swear, Alex Vargas on this song and "Sun and Moon" and Ashley Tomberlin on "Can't Sleep" off Tri-State can seriously make me curl up and cry like a child. This just broke me down and built me right back up. Never heard A&B acoustic before but my god.....
Those three songs are the most beautiful.. Can't agree more
It's annie drury actually
Alex Vargas is a special talent
Omair Sheikh
Very special. That voice, wow!
This is richard Bedford actually, not alex :)
No, Richard sang the original version. The acoustic version is Alex Vargas.
Alex Vargas
"You live your life just once...so don't forget about a thing called LOVE." Some of the truest words EVER!
It's great to come back to this video 2 years later and see how much more recognition they are getting from new fans.
Not surprising at all cause there's so much soul in it, so much love and inspiration
I'm someone who listens trance most of the times but I can still appreciate music like this.
same here bro :D
Well, don't be a prisoner of your own style :)
Armin said that btw, not me
***** That's a nice saying :)
*****
I love when he plays 90s hip hop
***** FEI-FEI
Came here after watching the full acoustic concert. Fell in love with Alex's voice from the first seconds. What a talent!
One of the best gems I found while living in Denmark - Alex Vargas. Got the opportunity to see him LIVE, man he is amazing!
There was a time, there was a place
But there was fear inside
A witty line to save my face
A parachute of pride
To cross the line takes a tiny step
But will the spark cause the bridge to burn
My fear entwined with my regret
I beat a path for safe return
So here we are, we're just the same
And you will never know
My secret plan, how close we came
To share another road
And have I lost my only chance
To tell you how I feel inside?
Is it just me, I'd like to know
Or are we all just a little blind?
There's a thing called love that we all forget
And it's a wasted love that we all regret
You live your life just once
So don't forget, forget about a thing called LOVE
i love you
Lalremruata Khiangte Hahaha, thanks :)
thank you 😍
thank you 😍

It fits perfectly during these hopeless, tumultuous times 2020. Where people are divided. Humanity has been forgotten.. we forgot the thing called LOVE
Jannet Ayala same feeling with you. So sad but don’t forget about love.
Update: add corona
Luckily, love can never be forgotten eternally. Maybe we can forget it temporarily, but it keeps coming back, stronger and purer than it was before. I'm looking forward to this comeback that we're all working on!
The instrumentalist at 3:42 seems to shred a tear. I would too mate.
"Shred" - sounds macho.
This is the anthem of life.
Absolutely
Absolutely brilliant. The vocals and the instruments just make you want to close your eyes and take in the emotions.
jejeje, really amazing vocal !
Absolutely right
Still brilliant after all these years of listening
Alex Vargus's voice just gave me some crazy chills. Choosing him for the acoustic album was a great selection. He really brings out the emotion of the lyrics.
Alex Vargas one of the best vocalists of our time LOVE IT.
No where as good as Justin Bieber, or Kanye West.
Life is made of small moments like these. -A&B
You guys have changed my life in such positive ways.
Your not alone
I would like to thank a girl , who made me listen to such wonderful songs. She stays 700 miles away from my home but lives 24*7 in my mind. I feel so positive just by thinking about her.
The Genius that is Above & Beyond is what makes this possible. What other trance musician can do this....
I agree... my favourite artist is Armin, but not even him can do what these three magicians did :)
I think BT started the orchestral compositions with Electronic Opus
Wow look at that, I'm here in the 2020 listening this masterpiece
Actually im addicted to those songs
Soooo beautiful
One of the most beautiful acoustic covers. Alex and Zoe Johnston's voice are so wonderfully emotive.
the whole thing is just perfection. everyone in the orchestra is so focused and the vocals are on point. this is why we need art. just wonderful
I'm sorry but is no one gonna mention what a fine specimen he is, he's perfect and so is his voice ❤
luna no I fully agree. I think he's so incredibly handsome, plus that voice.....and he seems like he would be such a sweetheart.
Alex Vargas blows my mind... what a voice! 3:20 gave me goosebumps.
I can not understand how such a great talent is not known in the world. Alex Vargas needs a lot more attention ..... he has mine forever.
I love Tony's smile at 3:40 after hearing that beautiful piece by Alex. That smile says it all. Must be so fulfilling to hear your song sung so beautifully...
When I first met my fiance she suffered bad with mental health and sleep I showed her this song she instantly fell in love with it and calmed her she sleeps a little bit better now thank you
I didn't think the original could get any better...This is the proper way to add emotion to a song. Very amazing!
I always imagine this song as an OST, emotional scene, rain, love, tears.. Gosh i wish i could stop 😢
This is the gold standard for what True music is. A&B + Alex can't be topped.
The best song from Above & Beyond imo..It's pure magic!!! 🖤
I think this is one of the rare times a cover is better than the original.
Anything acoustic by this band makes me weep massive waterfalls.
I should be sleeping right now... but i cant stop listening his voice...incredible...love it
There was a time, there was a place
But there was fear inside
A witty line to save my face
A parachute of pride
To cross a line, takes a tiny step
But will this spark cause the bridge to burn?
My fear entwined with my regret
A beated path of safe return
So here we are, all just the same
And you will never know
My secret plan, how close we came
To share another road
And have I lost my only chance
To tell you how I feel inside?
Is it just me? I'd like to know
Or are we all just a little blind?
There's a thing called love that we all forget
And it's a wasted love that we all regret
You live your life just once
So don't forget about a thing called love
Don't forget, forget about a thing called love
Don't forget, forget about a thing called love
There's a thing called love that we all forget
And it's a wasted love that we all regret
You live your life just once
So don't forget about a thing called love
Don't forget, forget about a thing called love
Omg I’ve been stuck on this song forever. Alex’s voice at around the 3min mark is soo emotional to me. I feel so much with just his voice, no words. What a beautiful voice this man has. He touched my soul and fills me with so much feeling.
We're all gonna make it brahs

Think he may of been on tour with Armin but you are right,I'm not hating or anything!
Tom Jones I think Bedford was already busy with Armin Only.
I can't even sing along. Alex's voice got me lost into their world. Amazing, amazing
There was a time, there was a place
But there was fear inside

just tears, 3:27 in the AM. I can't even

Alex Vargas is the best vocalist. He personifies emotion.
Love and light to you brother.

Blessed voice. And Above and Beyond became a new favourite for me from this acoustic on.
it always makes me feel spiritual to feel the love and the disappointment that I have experienced remembering things that happen to him in life
My Fiancee and I have chosen this as the song we will have our first dance to at the wedding.
Fantastic acoustic version. Quite amazed and pleased to have stumbled onto this by "accident" - Serendipity at it's finest. This is really well orchestrated and is full of life and love. You can feel they all are very connected and alive with the meaning of the song.

So happy he went in his current direction of music. Much more raw and emotional.
The studio recording is awesome, but this live performance is just so much more powerful.
beautiful man..voice of an angel..sings so effortlessly, , could watch and listen to him forever...the acoustic album is my favourite....
