- The Wonder Years performing "Cigarettes & Saints" acoustic at Gallery of Sound in Wilkes-Barre, Pa on September 3rd, 2015 for the release of their album "No Closer To Heaven".
He held back in every other song at this show except this one and IT IS FUCKING INCREDIBLE
hmmmmmmm
+Dustin Holder (whatshouldidohere) lol fancy seeing you here Dustin
You can feel raw emotion when he sings, soupy is a true lyrical genius and he just writes the most straightforward hard hitting lyrics
I would love for him to give an interview about his personal development and/or evolution of his thoughts/beliefs on religion and God…
Because you can clearly see it in his and the wonder years music
That "mic drop" at the end. You could tell he was wiping away tears and getting choked up...made for one hell of a performance.
The ending actually brought tears what the hell.
my god, i've seen them twice; Dan takes every live performance to the next level. i love them to bits!!
Holy smokes Soupy's range is incredible!
i swear i cant listen to this song without having a total breakdown. absolutely amazing.
he normally doesn't go all out in acoustic so happy he did , made the performance unforgettable
Frankie Piciullo im back 3 years later because of this exact reason
3 years from this comment i mean haha
This song came out right when my father passed. I swear he has a way of singing straight into your soul.
Daniel Friedman stay strong man.. May your father Rest In Peace❤️
Best wishes my dude. This song hits hard because I’ve lost tons of people in my life to addiction... I keep to myself anymore... It’s hard losing people constantly...
@@JanoyCresvaZero same. I believe in you bro. Keep your head up
This song never fails to make me cry. I found it after my grandma died and every line, every single one, reminds me of her. The line "watch them grow with the flowers in the spring" hurts the worst because she died while spring flowers were blooming and we'd garden together almost every year but this one because she was sick. God I miss her. She said she would wait for me and my husband to get married but her body just couldn't make it that long. I hope an afterlife exists so I can see her again, so she can see the wedding dress I made. It has a button from one of her shirts sewn into it. If you have a good relationship with your grandparents, tell them how much you love them becuase after they're gone, it never feels like enough.
This video has 4 years and I still get the chills. Damn.
Still…
The rasp in Soupy's voice absolutely fucking rips me to shreds fuck
i relate to this song. my best friend committed suicide and I got so angry with the world, then I found soupy and the wonder years and his lyrics just made me feel right again. he put the words i couldnt say into a song.
BCCubing my cousin committed suicide last summer and it hurt so bad
The song is about big pharma and the opiate crisis, not really about suicide. But, sorry for your loss. Any type of death is painful and leaves a hole in us.
Soupy’s grown so much as a lyricist he went from dropping the f bomb 5 or six times in song to once in a song and making you feel that shit with every last fiber of your being.
The energy that he brings is fuckin great. Jesus.
the emotion in soupy's voice tho
Jason Klenk seeing them do this live is fuckin crazy too man, you can't help but get choked up.
I wonder if he was planning on going all out, or if he just got caught up in the emotions tied to the song.
Not at all, take a look at their expressions in the end. They kinda look surprised
This song hits so close to home... Being in the recovery scene and coming off drugs, you meet a ton of great people... But you also lose a lot to the vices we have. This song perfectly describes one relationship I made in recovery and lost them... I swear I cry every time I hear this song...
I love the emotion in their songs, you can see it in the the way they preform
This never ceases to amaze me.
it's 12:30 am and i shouldn't be crying over this but here i am
Wow, I need to see this band live. Is he always this good?
Scorch428 yes it is one of the things you'll ever do with your life. Go see them now!
Absolutely
I've seen them 4 or 5 times now and they've never disappointed.
They are really good live and yes he is always that passionate
Man. Listen to those lyrics. No wonder he goes all out on that song...
So fucking amazing. Seriously put into words how I feel about a close friend that recently passed. Love it!
I get chills everytime I watch this. Such raw emotion. ❤️❤️
Soupy is the only artist that can bring me to tears like this in seconds
Soupy just kills every performance. This shit brings so many emotion. I miss you Chelsea.
This is the best band that has ever been
Can't wait to see these dudes in Nov
bless this band
this still gives me chills
holy shit
+NuckenFoob my boy

This video always gets me 💔
Man I love Soupy's vocals especially when he put it all out in the end
Powerful song, powerful performance.
this songs hits different man
When he walked off I got chills
You could tell it definately got to him and he had to take a moment to compose himself. Powerful song.
SUCH FEELS!
Oh fuck that ending
fuck, I love Dan's voice
What.A.Performance!!
Sensacional!
you were heat lightning
Soupy is incredible, but the guitars are fucking phenomenal
Twice a week I pass by the church that held your funeral
and the pastor’s words come pouring down like rain.
How he called you a sinner but said now you walk with Jesus,
so the drugs that took your life aren’t gonna cause you any pain.
I don’t think he even knew your name.
I refused to kneel or pray. I won’t remember you that way
but I lit you a candle in every cathedral across Europe.
I hope you know you’re still my patron saint.
I tried to forgive but I can’t forget the cigar in his fist.
I know that they were heartsick but I need someone to blame
and I know how they blame me. I know what you’d say.
You’d tell me it was your fault. I should put all my arrows away.
I’m sure there ain’t a heaven,
but that don’t mean I don’t like to picture you there.
I bet you’re bumming cigarettes off saints.
I’m sure you’re still singing
but I’ll bet that you’re still just a bit out of key.
With that crooked smile pushing words across your teeth.
You were heat lightning.
You were a storm that never rolled in.
You were the northern lights in a southern town, a caustic fleeting thing.
I’ll bury your memories in the garden;
I’ll watch them grow with the flowers in the spring.
I’ll keep you with me.
These wolves in their suits and ties
saying “kid you can trust me.”
Charming southern drawl, sunken eyes.
Buying good will in hotel lobbies.
They got fistfuls of pills to make sure you don’t hurt no more.
You don’t gotta feel anything.
Got their fangs in our veins.
Got their voice in our heads.
Got our arms in their grips.
No, we can’t shake free.
This god damn machine; hungry and heartless.
My whole generation got lost in the margin.
We put our faith in you. You turned a profit.
Now we’re drowning here under your waves.
Drowning held under your waves.
Drowning here. Drowning here.
You can’t have my friends. You can’t have my brothers.
You can’t have my friends. You can’t have my brothers.
You can’t have my friends. You can’t have my brothers.
You can’t have me. No, you can’t have me.
Such incredible lyrics.
Holy shit
holy shit I am fucking bawling
I love it :*
Man, I wish I had that Progress shirt....
Jon Ferguson 3 years late, but where can I find Progress at? I’ve tried looking for studio recordings or demos of any kind, but I haven’t been able to track any down
anyone know the chord progression for this?
INCREDIBLE FUCKING INCREDIBLE
the first time I tried to take my life, this song was my note.
Star Girl hope you're doing better now!!! stay strong
Holy fuck
dang
This cured my IBS
Next week at reverb
This was my song with my ex. I've never been so emotional :/
