  • This is an early demo by Fair to Midland. These are honestly my favorite lyrics of all FTM songs, or just songs in general. Recordings can be found here- www.gutterth.co...
    Lyrics:
    what if I live up to the masses
    make a choice and surrender everything
    give up these eyes what's most important
    now that piper he turns to look at me
    father said home is where the heart is
    as the clock ticks on I fear a stye
    to know which way the answer is
    yes but why,
    yes but why,
    yes but why
    we won't sail through the desert
    take these times all for granted again
    choke on the reason
    a goddamn face with no name
    sail through the desert take these times all for granted again
    and if I plow into none
    weigh my fortune
    Weigh my fortune's toll
    weigh my fortune
    weigh my fortune's toll
    what if I ask for words of wisdom
    and in the process choose to change my mind
    give up to the friend that's in the past now
    what can she give, she can't give life
    as I turn my head I see lamb steeple
    as I rise my eyes I see below
    seems as though it comes about
    more appealing
    well that's just a lie
    we won't sail through the desert
    take these times all for granted again
    choke on the reason
    a goddamn face with no name
    Sail through the desert take these times all for granted again
    and if I plow into none
    weigh my fortune
    Weigh my fortune's toll
    weigh my fortune
    weigh my fortune's toll
    and in time, on this day
    wishing I was in the back seat away
    now those rocks, come around
    and I choose to surrender myself
    these are trying times with failing conclusions
    fresh air
    die die die die
    long time and you can't come on to me
    blind to watch you
    now this time god has waged his war
    now this time I will breathe no more
    long time and you can't come on to me

    Don't thank me...look in the video info and you can download all these demos thanks to Gutterth.

    This has one of my favorite buildups in all of FTM's songs.

    holy shit this is a gorgeous song...kinda haunting too

  • @orphaeus99
    @orphaeus99 15 лет назад +1

    and we all know FTM are experts at doing that. my personal interpretation is that the song is about the dangers of losing what's most important to oneself.

    hopefully fair to midland can last 10 more years so we can conduct the greatest band in the rock hall of fame

    Well, no one is going to see them for a while since they're writing new material, but they did go to the north east on their tour. I know they went to New York, Philly, and I want to say Baltimore, but I could be wrong about that.

  • @codfish6677
    @codfish6677  16 лет назад

    Yeah this song would be hard to find, but thanks to Gutterth, they put it up on the internet for everyone to download (link in the video info). I wish i had the fortune of see this played live, i really find this an amazing song. I am a late-comer to FTM, and have yet to see them live (the dont seem to like the North East). But it is amazing to see their transformation from a small, avaunt-guard metal band to the art-rock powerhouse they are today. Have a happy Thanksgiving.

    I only got to seem them play this song live twice. I hate to sound like a name dropper, but I have been on the FTM bandwagon since the beginning. I went to high school with Darroh (known to us as Andrew), Cliff, John, and the guy that John replaced, Nathan. It is cool to look to look at where they are now and think back to them playing a shitty club in Greenville called Chauncy's (sp?). Their sound has changed so much and you know it's only going to get better.

  • @Krayzie_JB

    This song is hard to find and they only played it live 3 times that I know of. I have it on my iPod and I had to get it from the former bassist (Nathan). Kudos for putting it on youtube. It's a wonderful song and would have benefitted greatly from studio production. Everyone should get to hear this song, even in its raw form the way it is.

    why can't this song be shared that blows my mind

  • @codfish6677
    @codfish6677  15 лет назад

    Yes they went all those places. Philly and Baltimore are too far away for me and i desperately, (i mean desperately) wanted to go to the NYC show..but i couldn't make it. But I'm sure I'll see them eventually.

    Which song off the carbon copy silver lining did this sound the most like? Like something like this but heavier.

  • @amanuelamanuel

    fair to midland are indeed very good at it and I think it's because of their lyrics, they're so... blurry if you know what I mean.
    System of a down have often been asked what their songs are about and they have often said: whatever it means too you.

  • @amanuelamanuel
    @amanuelamanuel 15 лет назад

    yeah, exactly what I thought, and that's the way I like it, to leave something up to the listener and let him/her decide something in the meaning of the lyrics whether it is to himself/herself or universal, doesn't really matter.

  • @orphaeus99
    @orphaeus99 15 лет назад

    yeah, got that down, but i'm having problems uploading the videos, youtubes saying i don't have the right format.

  • @orphaeus99
    @orphaeus99 15 лет назад

    i'm gonna try to put all the songs from fables including hcm onto youtube soon. all i need to do is buy the album and...figure out how to make the g*dd**ned video. kinda sad huh? a comment back as to how to do so would be appreciated.

  • @codfish6677
    @codfish6677  15 лет назад

    Under "Import" look for audio/music and then just select the song you want. Same for pictures.

  • @codfish6677
    @codfish6677  14 лет назад

    @DeanWinchesterRules Yep! His voice has changed quite a bit.

    Isn't this supposedly their 1st song?

  • @orphaeus99
    @orphaeus99 15 лет назад

    i have windows and movie maker, but what i want to know is, where it says "insert media here, do you insert a picture or the music, and if a picture, how do you get the music in?

  • @orphaeus99
    @orphaeus99 15 лет назад

    jberry, ure from texas i presume? i myself got lucky enough to hear dance of the manatee a few times on music choice and immediately fell in love. anyway, the lyrics are great (and they explain the picture on the cover). i also here it from the highest authority (wikipedia:)) that the new album will be out within the year.

  • @Shiek200
    @Shiek200 14 лет назад

    @DeanWinchesterRules The uploader. Someone was talking to him, but they didn't use the @ symbol, so i just saw "codfish"

  • @amanuelamanuel
    @amanuelamanuel 15 лет назад

    It's okay, go ahead. My son

  • @amanuelamanuel
    @amanuelamanuel 15 лет назад

  • @Shiek200
    @Shiek200 14 лет назад

    @pathos6296 It took me a few seconds to realize that codfish was his username, and at first i was like "WHA-?"

  • @orphaeus99
    @orphaeus99 15 лет назад +1

    man, even with the lyrics, i still have a hard time following along. you have to listen real close.

  • @amanuelamanuel
    @amanuelamanuel 15 лет назад

    how do you mean? I can't see how the lyrics relate to Phil Schneider

  • @orphaeus99
    @orphaeus99 15 лет назад

    sorry, i bleeped out a swear. i'm a little bit too catholic for my own liking. anyway, what i mean is i can't figure out how to make the video. any suggestions.

    Try windows movie maker. Its pretty simple to use, (assuming you have a windows)

  • @amanuelamanuel
    @amanuelamanuel 15 лет назад

    I see, I thought something like that as well but it doesn't have to be political, I think it's a lot about self interpretation.

  • @orphaeus99
    @orphaeus99 15 лет назад

    i know exactly what u mean, and i feel the same way. would it be safe to call these guy's geniuses? i don't think it would be too far off

  • @JerkyMurky
    @JerkyMurky 14 лет назад

    true... but Fables was...

  • @orphaeus99
    @orphaeus99 15 лет назад

    @orphaeus99 Hi,. i`m from the future. Fair To Midlands newest album is way too mainstream.
    It`s called "Arrows & Anchors",. I still love them though!
