@@Noname-wi8xp eh so and so. In my humble opinion he can't reach the voice control he had on the Saturate. Though he still sounds quite good, his voice is pitchier and unstable, his studio performances are loaded with editing. That being said, he's been through numerous health struggles, so I can certainly cut him some slack, there are many singers who sound worse and have zero excuses
@@ptr_does_music7042 No judgement on him because he probably is sober right now and he is still a great performer and musician, I love BB, but ngl, years of alcohol and smoking are taking its toll on him; now he sounds like struggling live.
This performance was the first time I saw the band. I knew it wasn't a great performance but I could tell they were amazing and that the CD was probably much better than this performance (and it was). Also, that bassist lol, he is the most stereotypical looking musician from that era, that's how so many of those nu-metal dudes moved and acted on stage, cracks me up! not hating!
dude my mom called my into her room when i was like 12years old and showed me this on TV.. it was my first time hearing this band. been a die hard fan ever since
+Brent Marttinen The ironic thing is that he hates this song bcuz the record company forced the band to make this a single instead of their preference "Medicate" .. but Ayy LMAO that tho lol/.
Awesome , it probably went like this " uh guys , we gonna play a song , which i dont like a lot , so i want all of u to sing it, it isnt my favourite "
I'm 19 and I love all their albums so much. I've enjoyed my time watching this band grow with the use of the internet, since I was only a few years old when Breaking Benjamin was formed. It's awesome to look at the band over the years.
I'm 14, seen them a couple days ago along with disturbed. Probably the best concert I'll ever see, it's to bad everyone in my school listen to the trash pop rap music
I saw them in 2004 during "we are not alone" tour. They opened with "home" and they did play so cold but the rest of the set was all saturate. One of the best live shows ever, it sounded exactly like the album.
What i really like about BB is that he keeps it pretty much the same as the studio versions. He doesn't try to improvise a ton during live performances, he keeps it like he likes it. I like it too. I hope to see them live one day.
Um what ? Ben is far from being an emo. If you wanna meet a emo lead singer then go talk to Gerard Way during the Bullets, 3 cheers and black parade eras.
back when their music had real emotion behind it. i love this version of them. the new stuff is really good, but there was something so authentic and down to earth about the first two albums.
DownFromTheSky89 Okay bud. Calm down and go back to your TRVE KVLT music if this is making you pissy. If a little RUclips comment can make you this mad you need therapy.
He didn't do a death growl during this song, which seems to be more of a fry scream, but he does do death growls in a lot of songs, including polyamorous.
Every Breaking Benjamin album was freaking awesome, when I go to their concerts I love hearing every song, not just their old or new stuff. That I feel, makes them a great band.
He doesn't like the song because he didn't spend much time writing and recording it. It's one of the only songs he's finished in a weekend. His disdain for this track is baked into the track listing of Saturate. That's why this song is track number 4, foreskin. LoL
Tbh, i forgot about this song. Then i was listening to Kevin Staudt and saw the cover of this song, and it made me wanna come here. Thanks Kevin, you're so helpful sometimes 😂
I love retro videos like this of bands in their early prime when they were still young 🖤🔥 barely heard this song recently sounds amazing and nostalgic!
Saw them live last February with Three Days Grace and Flyleaf and it was without a doubt the best concert I've ever been to. Breaking Benjamin kicks so much ass.
This performance is just fucking awesome xD Ben's wearing an MLG shirt, and his fucking hair cut is gr8 m8 xD Also his throat problem is really noticeable sometimes. And like always, the bass player is going insane.
Ahhhhh. When Breaking Benjamin still was. What a time we had bouncing around Scranton and Wilkes-Barre following SWC/Lifer and then Breaking Ben. The local band club scene was something else then. Then again, so was I!
Well I know you don't know the reason And it's cold, a sign of the season 'Cause you're old, and battered and beaten And we'll grow, 'til we hit the ceiling, yeah Well I'll be better, get away Send a letter, bombs away You're covered in my skin I couldn't imagine anyone else I'm off for the weekend I couldn't imagine why you would save yourself Well it's gone and it's not returning And your clothes and pictures are burning 'Cause you're old, and battered and beaten And we'll grow, til we hit the ceiling, yeah Well I'll be better, get away Send a letter, bombs away You're covered in my skin I couldn't imagine anyone else I'm off for the weekend I couldn't imagine why you would save yourself Well I'll be better, get away Send a letter, bombs away You're covered in my skin I couldn't imagine anyone else I'm off for the weekend I couldn't imagine anyone else You're covered in my skin I couldn't imagine anyone else I'm off for the weekend I couldn't imagine why you would save yourself
Ben's voice is absolutely incredible, shout-out to Aaron (I think that's his name since Mark was the bassist and Chad was the drummer) as well for providing some clutch, impressively high backing vocals as well👍🏼🔥
Has anyone noticed that at about 2:04, it shows all members making ridiculous faces back to back? Ben does a snake-like head motion, Mark does something similar to Donkey Kong beat boxing, Aaron kinda sticks his lower jaw outward, and Jeremy rolls his lips in strains his neck all weird. I think the video editors of where this was filmed did that on purpose. I find it SO funny.
Can't quite believe this Valora Remix to be the only thing that led to the breakup (I know BB is back on board tho). I mean, 8 f*cking years of friendship to just one unauthorised Remix....
Love the hair, love him! The smile at the end is priceless! I only wish the camera didn't repeatedly go to mega close ups of the other guy. He is not as pleasant to look at as Ben.
The best alternative metal/nu-metal/hard rock band ballad era 2000s ever in the history of the time and of course it is a breaking benjamin,they are the most underrated band ever like linkin park,drowning pool,staind,deftones,korn and more.
listening to this BReaking benjamin makes me feel young. remember those times!.escuchar este BReaking benjamin me hace sentirme joven . recordar esas epocas !!
I have overlooked this video for over a year now because of the hair (I know, stupid), but this is probably the best vocals I have seen him do in a RUclips Video, hmm, shame on me! and rock on BB!!
Shilvic1 I kinda got bored of the one he has now, since he has had it all the time since here! He should really try to get a little creative with his hair! :P
I love this performance so much. It's kind of weird that Aaron is doing backup vocals though! He never sang in later performances and he seems to have a decent voice... wondering why he didn't help Ben out during the live shows around 2007 when Ben started having health issues. Huh. Anyway, awesome song live.
That face at the end, he knows dam well he nailed that performance
Oh god, his voice was amazing around this era in my opinion. Hope his voice recovers more
Can't get enough of this live version, sounds amazing
Apparently it has.
Seeing them in a few weeks with Bush and AIC

his voice hasn't changed one bit, and that's incredible.
That man's vocal chords were hand-crafted by angels.
BB at their most awkward and most incredible at the same time.
And everything was perfect

that's the whole reason i clicked this video but damn! what an amazing live performance!
easily one of their best performances

The backing vocals are even higher, impressive!

Shoot me now......Saturate was the best album

totally agree!
nope phobia

@@AndAllWeAreIsAllWeMadeBB So down to earth
He can. I’ve seen them in concert.
he sounds exactly like he does on the album here. absolutely incredible. i don't think I have ever head someone do such a good job live.

Better live than the recordings
What i really like about BB is that he keeps it pretty much the same as the studio versions. He doesn't try to improvise a ton during live performances, he keeps it like he likes it. I like it too. I hope to see them live one day.
this song is so goooddddd
Breaking Benjamin in general is just amazing
(My pfp checks out)
This is my favorite live version of any bb song on RUclips
I gotta admit, I love the way he says "beaten" and "ceiling." That weird ass vibrato thing is so fucking cool.
20 years rockin this timeless banger
That smile at the end. God i love ben.
Its the rare.... EMO BEN! And its god damn amazing

i love when he does the Death Growl

Seen him 2 years ago with the new band. He has his guitarist do a lot of the growling now. It's not the same anymore.:(
DownFromTheSky89 are like 13 or something stop being so fucking annoying and shut the fuck up
He didn't do a death growl during this song, which seems to be more of a fry scream, but he does do death growls in a lot of songs, including polyamorous.

You can see pure talent here... Sounds almost better than the recorded version...
I like how BB can actually play the correct tempo live.
Ben looks kind of like Christian bale in this
Best band, can't wait til you're back ben!
That MLG shirt tho

I cant believe Ben actually hates this song, it's actually one of my most favorite of that album.
Why does he hate it?
@@antonio224 he says it sounds too pop-ish
@@Immolator772 Isn't it because Ben wanted to make "Medicate" a second single of Saturate but Hollywood Records chose "Skin"?
@@dflime that could be another reason.
He doesn't like the song because he didn't spend much time writing and recording it. It's one of the only songs he's finished in a weekend. His disdain for this track is baked into the track listing of Saturate. That's why this song is track number 4, foreskin. LoL

Funny to see the guys so young, 2002 now lies away quite a bit.
Yeah, i am feeling the same. Oh, look how sweet Ben looks ^^
+Cody Beaumont and now you are/will be soon 21 :D

Saw them live last February with Three Days Grace and Flyleaf and it was without a doubt the best concert I've ever been to. Breaking Benjamin kicks so much ass.
What was that year in like 2010 2011?
I can’t stop watching this. It’s just so, for lack of a better word, real.
This performance is just fucking awesome xD
Ben's wearing an MLG shirt, and his fucking hair cut is gr8 m8 xD
Also his throat problem is really noticeable sometimes.
And like always, the bass player is going insane.
One of the best BB songs ever made! Raw and original for sure.
What an amazing voice!
For me its their best album, I was addicted in every single track
i did not expect for them to sound this good...its really great!
love all the faces ben makes through the concert im so glad hes back and making music
That's the most early 2000s haircut I think I've ever seen.
Everything about this is perfect i still watch it multiple times to this day
ruclips.net/video/cTPq1MBcn_g/видео.html - this version is really good too. I think it's better
Ahhhhh. When Breaking Benjamin still was. What a time we had bouncing around Scranton and Wilkes-Barre following SWC/Lifer and then Breaking Ben. The local band club scene was something else then. Then again, so was I!
One of the best live performances! BB one love! ❤
That scream is fucking beautiful Reminded me of young chevelle totally. Gave me goosebumps and caught me off guard when I first heard this song.
Bring back those days... The best vibes in music resonate in those very years. BB for life!
Caramba, essa vocal é fantástico
I feel that this is something truly special... in terms of music in general, song, live performance and vibe it gives off.
Feeling old, this album is now 20 years old.
Incredible live. I almost am convinced they put his studio vocals over this lol
And we'll grow! Till we hit the ceiling!
Been really wanting to get those words added to my BB tat
It would be ironic for me since I'm only 5'6"
elgin prewitt Haha, fuck it!
Ben is 6'4. I'm not sure he really needs to grow any more. 😂
Yes Ben, she is definitely covered in MY skin. ❤
Love the scream! Ben rocks!
Best album by Breaking Benjamin. Always had a special place in my heart
21 años de este toque tan impresionante
LEGENDARY RECORDING
classic BB..so awesome!
Holy shhhiet she gave me chills.
Well I know you don't know the reason

And I have been their huge fan for a long time.

Ben had different ideas about the future of the band then Aaron and James.
Sure, however, would you start a lawsuit against your friend(s)? Either Ben or Mark&Aaron were quite stubborn.
***** My words!
At least one thing is certain. We can thank the hair gods for letting Aaron get rid of that awful haircut xD

It sucks that Ben disliked this song. It's awesome!
What I wouldn't do to have this video/audio in high quality
I swear that bassist has got to be high
If you check out any of their older live videos (the ones before they got a new bass player) you'll see he was always like this. He was weird. XD
Cold Fusion Yeah he was a fuckin dick
Cold Fusion yea I swear Mark could never stand, he always did some wierd shit but it was pretty funny
Mark is hilarious
