Billy Talent is the most underrated band I can think of. Their guitar break downs are second to NONE. I have grown up listening to Billy Talent and I will be listening as an old man, too. 🤷❤️
so happy that Billy talent still sounds like Billy talent
Whacky Bread sorry but not anymore
@@danielpais4755 so true, so sad
@@whackybread rip did you know the band is actually helping me come back to my home country because the corona closed all flights and I'm stuck in Uruguay and they are trying to help me
@@danielpais4755 really? That's really good of them, who knew
@@whackybread and a couple other bands like sum cans freakshow
THPS1+2 brought me here. When I played the original in '99 I was introduced to so many artists, and I'm so stoked that the remake is doing the same for me ❤
I was so happy to see a Billy Talent song on the game. These guys make some great music.
X2.
My vs atv unleashed, it had devil in a midnight mass as the bully talent track. I didn't see them again until I got burnout legends for the psp and I heard red flag. Instant fan
Same here
One of the greatest songs I’ve ever heard. No hyperbole. Thank you, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2.
Same here. Best music of the game
Its a great song
Same here, play the game with this music bring my best records !
Cara, THPS 1+2 ficou bom pracas!!!
Dude, THPS 1+2 ROCKS!!!
Facts that’s How I Got here 2
For me this song is so inspiring. It conveys such a strong emotion for me, like so few other pieces of music are capable of. "...to never be afraid of heights again" is such a strong way of articulating comitment. Even if you fall, even if you will maybe hit the ground and burst into pieces, you go on and keep it going. What else can you do really? Atleast if you want to get anything worthwhile in life.... So rather keep your comitment going and explore new hights, you cannot afford to look down and evaluate how the way down would be anyways. You cannot afford to be caputured by insignificant things and lose focus, at least not up there. Not leaving the ground will be the same thing as falling anyways - so do yourself a favor and be not afraid of heights.
My all-time favorite band ever since I started listening to them in 2007.
2007!? I thought I was a late bloomer at 2003
+Marco Havok Wish I would've discovered them before I was 9.
Wow that beats me, when I was a Freshman
First song I I heard from them was falling leaves
Campbell johnston *fallen
Very sad that Aaron wasn't the drummer in the video :/ Stay strong.
The only height that we should all be afraid of is Ian's haircut.
Thanks a lot for the laugh
LMAO
I was just thinking that I could tell by the drums it was not him
Octosoufre sorry but what happened to Aaron

Only 700k views, a real shame considering how amazing this song is, and the best music video I've seen as well. Only really ever liked Fallen Leaves by Billy Talent, so I'm not even a "fan", this song is just absolutely amazing! Hope it picks up some publicity, I'd love to see more like this...
As someone who was skeptical when first hearing Afraid of Heights and Louder than the DJ, I now understand this album. I was expecting a track-to-track anthemic album like their first three albums, but this album seems to tell more of a story in an a way almost similar to an opera. I heard the album a week or so ago when it leaked and was blown away. This album felt unexpected on first listen, but a similar unexpectant feeling that green day fans felt when american idiot came out. It's an album that moves in a different direction, yet Billy Talent does it in their own way, once again.
Are you the Hank Hill from the drift0r video?
Gavin Girard Probably, I've been in alot of videos for some reason, lol.
Every album in existence is meant to tell a story, but that doesn't excuse the songs on themselves being bad.
No way this is an opera.
+MysteriousShyGuy they may be connected, but an opera isn't 9 songs 2 shits and a remix
Thank you thps 1+2 ... I always knew about billy talent.. but had no idea they played music this good.
So good song ! Billy talent, now there is more than 15 years I found you, 15 years of happiness and sad things, but Billy talent, you are always there, and you still give me a pure power and the true love for the life
That was one of the best videos I have ever seen from Billy Talent! Such high production value :O Amazing new album btw
If anyone hasn't heard the new album, it's on Pandora

Ah man... pandora doesn't work in my country.

RUclips the song names. I'm sure many people have already uploaded it. I saw a couple already
They were in Rimouski (Quebec) Yesterday.
When ur Special bar hits max and u hear this song the game gets even better.
I heard this band back when i was about 13. Ive loved them ever since. All their albums are just superb.
They are my goddamn childhood and I love them to bits. I
Ben would be such a great actor. Whenever I see their music video, you can mute freaking music and just from looking at his facial expression and gestures you could tell what song is about, whether it's sad or happy. While 90% of singers just stand there in front of mic in mucis videos, staring at camera, Ben is so into it, he's basically acting in their videos and that's what 90% of other singers can't do. I wish I could see him on stage.
I get nostalgic chills from this song when in the air hitting specials on THPS 1+2
Thanks Billy talent for always making amazing songs and not turning on us with some kind of sellouts! Album after album you all give it your best with love and care.
Been listening to these guys for 17 years. Now my 5 year old daughter loves them too. Especially this song and video
These guys have been great for a long time now. Im sure the TH 1/2 remaster will expose them to a lot more potential fans.
My brother has been trying to get me to bbn listen forever. Was playing TH today and I was like. Hmmmm, I enjoy this is it AFI? Coheed and Cambria? Was surprised to see it was Billy Talent.
✋ present
I first discovered them on Burnout 2 as they had a demo version of Red Flag on the game. so great to see that a new generation are discovering them through TH
Lyrics:
Wherever I go, wherever I go
I have to question the hand that I hold close
Wherever I go, wherever I go
I have to silence the words that you fear most
Don't ever let go, don't ever let go
Are we destined to hit the ground below?
Don't ever let go, don't ever let go
We're at the end of a burning tightrope
Now I'm waiting on the corner in the back of your mind
It's a lonely place to live, and I got nowhere to hide
'Cause you told me that you'd never be afraid of heights again
Nobody ever thought that we could make it this high
You're the only one I'd follow 'til the end of time
If we fall, we fall together baby, don't think twice again
Together I know, together I know
That we'd burn like a rocket's afterglow
Together I know, together I know
We could conquer the stars beyond this world
We let it all go, we let it all go
I'm just a voice on a broken radio
We let it all go, we let it all go
We got lost in the constellations
Now I'm waiting on the corner in the back of your mind
It's a lonely place to live, and I got nowhere to hide
'Cause you told me that you'd never be afraid of heights again
Nobody ever thought that we could make it this high
You're the only one I'd follow 'til the end of time
If we fall, we fall together baby, don't think twice again
And after all these years, and all of this time
Darling, if I'm still a question in your mind
Just say the words and this will end
You told me that you'd never be afraid of heights
You told me that you'd never be afraid of heights
You told me we should never be afraid of heigths again
You told me that you'd never be afraid of heights again
You told me that you'd never be afraid of heights again
If we fall, we fall together baby, don't think twice again
Wherever I go, wherever I go
I hear your voice on a broken radio
Wherever I go, wherever I go
I know we'll burn like a rocket's afterglow
Don't ever let go, don't ever let go
Are we destined to hit the ground below?
Don't ever let go, don't ever let go
Are we just watching the final chapter close?
Why didn't this break a million yet??
Crazy.
TheUltimateRiku why the fuck hasnt november rain cracked a billion thats a question
November Rain = Zzzzzzz (except for the solo)
TheUltimateRiku AHEM. :)
Has now :)
Because there are no womens selling body.
Afraid of heights is one of the best albums and songs i've ever listened to, they created a new sound without changing it to drastically. well done billy talent!
I had never heard of this group or song before I played Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2.
I am very thankful for that game as it has introduced me to this incredible piece of music.
what a fantastic tune... "Nobody ever thought that we could make it this high
You're the only one I'd follow 'til the end of time
If we fall, we fall together baby, don't think twice again" BILLY TALENT IS THE BEST. FOREVER.
What are they putting in the water up there in Canada? There's an army of bands rolling out of there lately, and Billy Talent is out in front! You guys are incapable of making a bad song; I've heard too many to know that. This one is at the top of the list of favorites!
@nerdydaddyo its boomer juice that’s what they are putting in the water
weve always had band. rush, tragically hip, etc. not to mention singers in general. alvvays is another good band but i guess they're more indie than rock
Seems like few Canadians even remember Billy Talent sadly..
If you’re just not hearing of billy idol you out of touch my guy
I like that 14 years later Billy Talent is still Billy Talent. Too many things change and make me feel old, lol.
Such a great band. Was lucky enough to see them in concert some years back, and they're even better live! :)
It's Billy Talent, they been repeating the same formula for 5 records straigh and they just can't fail, I don't think they will go any further than this and I'm perfectly happy with that.
I found this song for one of our projects during my recovery class.. one guy had the fear of Heights and I had to find a song about heights. He loved the song, I definitely love the song. Happy I came across this and I am going to listen to the rest of this album now.
The giant tower in the middle of the water reminds me of the beginning of Megaman Legends
THPS 1+2 HYPE TRAIN 🚂
Foreal best game since blacks ops 1 lol
Yeah boi
ITS OUT BOI GO PLAY IT
@@landrewbrandon5747 YES!!! ENJOY!!
Lets Play some THPS
Siempre amare esta banda, nunca me decepciona.Son geniales aunque pasen los años.
Completing "The rail challenge" while listening to this is just beyond epic...
Tony Hawk has been turning me on to great music I never would’ve listened to otherwise. Since THPS1, I’m grateful for the memories. Life used to be so much happier.
It's perfect! I loved hearing you guys play this son live and it was so awesome to have Ian playing his guitar right in front of me in Brantford!
I saw their show in Brantford as well, it was amazing! Any idea when they're touring Canada for this album?
Was an amazing night! Saint Asonia rocked too
It was killer eh? Sorry I have no idea I tried to look it up but I don't think they even know when they are coming back.
I WAS THERE! AND THERE WAS THIS GUY WHO LOOKED JUST LIKE ONISION BEHIND ME! AND I WAS A ONE MAN MOSHPIT! AND I DIDN'T GET TO LISTEN TO THE ASCOT ROYALS BECAUSE I WAS TALKING TO THE GUY WHO LOOKS LIKE ONISION! and...they...didn't play Nothing To Lose : (...Still a great show, with some sweet ranting
Spencer was that Saint Asonia? Or just Three Days Grace in disguise *GASP* XD
The fifth element sequals looking pretty great ngl
One of those songs that really grows on you
They really have zero bad songs
Just hearing this album for the first time in 2020 and I thought they just released this lol. I kinda forgot about them after their 2nd album, so glad that they still sound the same!!! I love it!
this video reminds me of "No Man's Sky" ....but ive also been listening to Billy Talent for years so make no mistake! Lmao i started listening to them since '07 when my brother used to show me "Billy Talent II" in my dad's old restaurant...damn. I miss the old days. Things change. Enjoy every moment.
Billy Talent you're the best, your music is always so unique! keep being that amazing!
So.. Can we talk about that music video? I’m sure it has some pretty deep symbolism but the band has never come out and spoken about it.. Other than explaining the song itself, being about relationships and commitment. So the video is a very stark contrast to what the actual song is about.
And what’s with those towering monoliths, scattered throughout the video? It actually raises more questions than it does answers.
tony hawk's get this amazing song!! thumbs up
This song made me a Billy Talent fan again. Their second album was my introduction to the band and to me it's still their best work. One of the best punk albums I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. The third and forth albums were meh efforts to me. But this one, thanks to this song and others like Cannibal Rats and Big Red Gun, is an excellent effort.
I agree with you, although the third and fourth have gems, they don't compare to the first two
The Video is awesome, the guys are awesome, the song is awesome - Billy Talent is awesome! I'm absolutely looking forward to the new album! :D
Me encanta la enegergia que transmite 🤘
IF you're here from Tony Hawk, I suggest checking out their song "Beg To Differ" as well as older tracks.. This band deserves more recognition, spread it but please, 6 feet apart people lol
Something was changing with Billy Talent's sound (and not for the better) right around the 3rd album. Hasn't been an album like the first two - those are straight classics lyrically and musically IMO
Completely agree with you, I have Billy Talent I and II and was expecting to hear some Voices of Violence or This is How it Goes only to hear this and think wtf happened??
well it changed, but not for bad. Well Billy Talent III was not that good( my Opinion) but Dead Silence is very nice and i also like the new songs!
No one understands my love for these guys. I've loved them since they were Pezz and this makes me so happy honestly
This would fit so comfortably on Billy Talent 2
Mm still gives me goosebumps ❤
Beyond stoked. Anyone else suspect the final scene on the beach was shot in Port Credit??
Billy talent was my favourite band ever since I was a kid, and now I’m starting a band and we’re going to do their songs
I swear if I ever make it to the big ring, this would be one of my walkout songs!💪🏼
Love billy talent and glad this song is on thps1/2 so they can get even more new fans
The greatest bridges in music history: Numb by Linkin Park, What It Takes by Aerosmith, Afraid Of Heights by Billy Talent. It's science.
This album is going to be nutty
its leaked already
It's leaked, and IS nutty. Nice Rise Against pic, by the way.
where
+Clash Of lords check billy talent reddit
billy talent and rise against are fucking amazing
I abussoulutly love this band and how deep there songs meanings are
Anyone get a fifth element feel from that video?
Yeah a lot actually, I tought it was a video for a cheap sequel.
It's those pillars! They look pretty much like the elemental stones. Plus the white leeloo-esque outfit.
parts of this music video are from lakeshore in mississauga and clarkson im sure of it ! i wish i was there to see this being made ugh!
Getting some "Diamond On A Landmine" vibes
I always thought it was so cute the way Jordan looks so happy on the drums
THPS 1+2 !!!
Just saw them in edmonton k days. Expecting reunion hits but got a pleasent surprise with new stuff. Louder than the dj is new fave
this is a gift.
thank you.
with love,
the river below
My boyfriend Tom and Jon are related. Since we started dating I've been meaning to listen to Billy Talent's stuff.
HOW ARE YOU GUYS NOT AS BIG IN AMERICA AS YOU ARE EVERYWHERE ELSE?! I mean seriously!!!
welp, cant say i liked the video much, but it was a good reason to listen to this wicked song again!
My thoughts inverted :P I'm all into the video. but I think the song is kinda boring land lacking instrumentally. Has an excellent text though!
How do you feel about Louder Than The DJ? I'm not a massive fan of that song, so I'm curious if maybe you'd be the opposite there as well :P
Louder than the DJ has weak verses, an issue that most of this album struggles with in my opninion, and if they wanted the chorus to be catchy.. I dunno, it's mediocre I suppose, but the solo is really good in that one :)
Honestly the thing with me about Billy Talent, is if I don't quite like the song I just have to listen to it. Every one of their songs has something unique about it that I can't find anywhere else.
What so u dont like it and like wtf that mean
No me recordaba de esta canción! Gracias papá RUclips por volverla a ponerla en mi feed! Odio tu publicidad pero gracias por recordarmela
Amazing video guys! Truly a work of art.
I don’t know if anybody else caught the VFX thing at 2:18 where there is no shadow on the glass, but love this song and I like the video as well.
BIG UP from Czech Republic!
Im already ordered several pieces of new CD for me and my friends.
The scene running through the woods around 0:30 reminds me of the movie Intacto, where they do the same thing blindfolded with their hands behind their backs. Good movie... a little weird though.
This is great.
My all-time favourite band since I started listening to them in 2003 because Try Honesty. In fact it was the first rock song that inspired me from hip-hop and rap and picked up my first guitar in 2004. I now own 7. -Beaverton, On.
In 2007 I traveled to Kunzelsau, Germany where some friends there seen them live (Small world)
Cmon guys we have to get 1 mil views on it ..... its a fantastic video and song!
The official music video is fantastic. This song live at WTFest was amazing. Can't wait to see them live again.
Who's here cause of tony hawk lol
NHL 06 is the only reason I know of Billy Talent, although this is by far their best song
ChloePrice4Ever I listened to the album that this song is on and I liked the album as a whole but yes this one is a major ear worm
Me actually! Heard it today. I noticed this wasn't one of the original tracks, but I definitely liked it
When you have the special pumping that chorus and middle 8 is just great.
Landed my first 900 to it.
Me
Im a billy talent fan, but i took a break from them. Im glad Tony hawk brought me back. This song is wicked
Excelente video!! sigan así chicos, son geniales
I always hate when bands I love release new songs because I feel like they change they're style..
but I am loving this so much x33
So why is daredevil after them?
was looking for that
Angry he didn't get renewed for a 3rd season.
+JOY RIDE except he did.
But he's getting it tho
billy talent a stunning example of someone who is persistent and loves their passion - music. I really don't think they give a damn about fitting in, just does their own thing. Respect! I share this mentality with my music. If you're one of those awesome people to give a nobody like me a chance, swing by my channel. I bet you won't regret it. Either way, stay happy and give this one another listen. Peace and love friends
To be honest, would you expect anything less than perfect from these guys?
me when making the first step on a ledder
'noooooooooo' - me falling down from the first step of a ladder
This song (and every song) sounds so awesome live. i got to see them two days ago and it was the best day of my life.
Очешуительно!
I really enjoyed this on. It is the kind of video i was searching for a long time. Finally someone had the guts to make video with that kind of ending(to prevent spoilers...)
Love the album aswell.
If you ever feel dumb remember that there are people who disliked this song.
Клип шикарен на столько, на сколько шикарен новый альбом. Очень понравилась игра Бенджамина в клипе, безумно нравятся все его движения и эмоции. Не менее приятно видеть и остальных участников, которые выглядят изумительно. Годно годно годно годно годно ...
I've been listening to this band for more than half my life. Still amazing! ❤️
Hi Michel how you
Michel hi how are you
One of my favsss!!!!;
Reminds me of billy talent 1
in his like 40s and still sounds amazing.
наконец:3
as far as i m concerned, billy talent can do no wrong. loved this song
Now we want to see the end of this story :D !
wow that was a amazing video you guys have been my favorite band literally since I was 5 and I was wondering where could I send pics of stuff I make? I made a sign that's the louder than the DJ logo carved out in solid wood
sounds cool 😊 send them a pic on twitter and tell them u want them to have it!
Aguante Tony hawk 1+2 😎💪
This song slaps hard AF
Tony Hawks Pro Skater 🤘🏻
C'est cool! Merci les gars pour ce petit chef d’œuvre. ^^
J'aime bien le style un peu SF du clip et les piliers sont grave classe, j'eus aimé que vous les utilisiez plus.
