one of my favs on the CD. I played on repeat for a month straight. I can never decide which is my absolute favorite, but this is definitely one of them.
I'm not sure if it was Lightning 100, but there used to be a RUclips video of this song and another FANSD track - either "Part Of It" or "I Don't Need A Soul" done acoustically. It went down many years ago, unfortunately. Does anyone remember that or have some RK radio archives in which they could check on that?
To whoever it was that commented about how it seems the lyrics mean a lot to him, it's because the whole album is about his ex fiancée. Just thought I'd share the fanboy knowledge :)
@PipeOrganistSC Yes, I don't mean to come off judgmental or rude but I just saw him last weekend in PA and he looked very thin. I just hope everything's okay. I love these guys. Relient K is my absolute favorite
Is it okay to like Relient K as a 16 year old boy who doesn't belive? really don't ask me why I have my own private reasons to NOT believe in god...but really i like their music but i am not one of those people who don't care what the lyrics are about
Dude, you do you. But also, they are not strictly a Christian band either. They write about everything, including some deep secular topics. So, there is that.
A lot of Matthew Thiessen's lyrics are deep and poetic, especially in the album 'Forget and not slow down', because he was going through a hard time in that period of his life. And I think because of that, a lot of people can identify with what he's singing about whether they're a Christian or not.
Yes. You do you. You also have the freedom to make Christianity your own, if you ever wish to do so. Jesus was a rebel and an outsider. His message of Love and the value of the weak over the strong can appeal to Christians and non-Christians alike. Relient K is one of my favorite bands. My husband and I (we’re gay, obviously) met them backstage last year in Richmond, Va. They were awesome to us. They even signed records for me (after their manager said they wouldn’t do so). My husband was next to get photos with them, and I introduced him as my husband and asked them to sign his records, too, and they did so.
@PipeOrganistSC he is thin but tall like 6'5 i think... he reminds me of the singer guy from blink 182.. if i was told that they were brothers i would believe it..lol
What is that attachment on the guitars players guitar ( On the whole in the base ) I see alot of people with them and dont know what they do our what they are haha
You may have already learned the answer in the last four years, but FTR, it's a pickup that slides in place so an acoustic guitar can be plugged in to an amp or soundboard. It allows one to play a true acoustic guitar, but still have the notes captured in a way that doesn't make the video sound like it was recorded on someone's phone.
I know this is an old ass video but this is amazing.
What a voice this dude has

How real music sounds live
@PipeOrganistSC he is thin but tall like 6'5 i think... he reminds me of the singer guy from blink 182.. if i was told that they were brothers i would believe it..lol
Not to mention that their old music sounds exactly like that of blink182 lol
Sure, man. Why not? Relient K's a great band.
What chords is Matt Hoopes playing during the bridge?
What is that attachment on the guitars players guitar ( On the whole in the base ) I see alot of people with them and dont know what they do our what they are haha

ha. I think the hair is dope.
😭😭😭
looks like he's playing octaves.
I agree. I like his hair shorter. Great performance though.
@xXxRainbowViensxXx . well Im no artist, I just thought it looked better when it was shorter
how is this acoustic with a keyboard?
Keyboards are a lot easier to carry around than pianos :) Sounds like it's basically on regular piano mode anyway
Love the song... get a haircut
