There is only one word to describe this song: powerful. Simple as that. Usually I post long, insightful posts on videos that I like, but on this one, it all boils down to that one emotion: powerful.
After I watched the Futures Phoenix Session stream I came here. They should've totally done Disintegration as an encore there. But this version is so good I'm okay with just watching this right after.
Passion & energy, one of my favourite performance of all time. Love this drums, love this lyrics, love this light, love all of it. It's unforgetable if u see this just once!
I saw them in liverpool last year and this was the only song i didnt know at the time but it was great, only just realised what it is from stay on my side tonight
Everytime I watch this video, I think when I really took a chance on someone, the ninja bandit of my heart, who would eventually be my destructor and who did burn me really badly the point of death. I was ready to end it all, but this began to play on MTV which then I dropped the the gun and realized that life is never perfect. I know air want not perfect either and granted I made her decision easy the way I was back then. I lived my life and LIVED better than I did with her. But I'm so off guard when I think of her when I know if she need me I would be there no matter what because I loved her and will always love her. This song will always be my reminder that Love can be your strength and weakness all in the same time.
Great song! Going to see these guys live in September in San fransisco for the bleed American 10 year anniversary tour cant wait my favorite band ever!
Given the theme of the song I thought that he is talking of drinking alcohol at first but listening to it more closely, i figured that the two lines connected and that made it so much more awesome. I love it when songs break a sentence given that it is done in a smart way.
@blackops417 Jimmy ARE "emo" but not as its understood today. Emo is very different now to what it was known as in the midd 90s which was when Jimmy were hitting the scene and considered "emo". Their wiki page and the emo wiki page actually gives a good explanation of it.
@passengeruk because they did splits with jejune and christie front drive. dude, they WERE emo. they used to embrace emo, now they hate it yet still make it..or stuff similar to it. whatever you want to think, they were a big part of the emo scene when i was a kid. i remember it well.
Saw them live a couple of years ago. But I didn't know this song before. And when they played this song, I went to the wardrobe. I F*CKING REGRET THIS SO MUCH!!!!!!
seriously are you going to judge a band for what other people consider they are or not? they are awesome and if you like them you don't have to worry about if they are or not or mildly are in the emo scene, you should hear Motion City Soundtrack also, at first sight they sound a lot like Jimmy Eat World, and very people put them in the emo category, but they are a very talented band like this one, don't worry about labels, and enjoy this great music! XD
depends on how you view it...if you call bands like rites of spring emo, then jew isn't. I think these guys have surpassed the label by this point though
Its not worth getting into the genre discussion anymore with how much is out there.The truth is is that it depends on your exposure to whatever kind of music. For instance. If the only music I've ever heard is metal, and mozart (classical), and then you show me jimmy eat world i'm probably going to think it sounds more like metal, than classical
most underrated song ever. Everytime i play this people ask what song is it
This is literally how I found this song 12 years ago and have since then introduced it to so many people
Been watching this video for over 10 years. Never gets old. Right in the feels.
The best live song I've ever witnessed
i love the way he just belts it out for the last minute and a half. amazing.
Stay On My Side Tonight might very well be Jimmy Eat World's best work.
Natrone011 seconded
loved it on their cd, loving it better live especially at the end.... so much emotion, so much feelings. i love this song.

this is one of jimmy eat world's best song! its amazing even better live! can't stop listening to it!
My favorite song of their's. Absolutely amazing.
After I watched the Futures Phoenix Session stream I came here. They should've totally done Disintegration as an encore there. But this version is so good I'm okay with just watching this right after.
i think this sums up jimmy eat world in a package of feelings indescribable to man....
they really are great live and their shows rock!
I've seen em twice this past year already:
Philly Feb 25 and Boston April 2.
AMAZING BAND and GUYS!!!
Passion & energy, one of my favourite performance of all time. Love this drums, love this lyrics, love this light, love all of it. It's unforgetable if u see this just once!
I now have full trust in the 'Let RUclips choose' button. My favourite song 2 years back and not far off being it again.
I saw them in liverpool last year and this was the only song i didnt know at the time but it was great, only just realised what it is from stay on my side tonight
man. those drums are haunting.

Some of my favorite drumming.
i was there, one hell of a show!
Wow! They're really amazing live.
Cause you put your emotions and feelings in a song doesn't mean you are an emo.
And maybe is this a song about a real happen.
Love it.
just discovered this song and ep recently....immediatley checked youtube for a live version. thanks for this..fucking amazing.
Great song! Going to see these guys live in September in San fransisco for the bleed American 10 year anniversary tour cant wait my favorite band ever!
by far the best live version of this song on youtube
"This poison comes instruction free, do what you want, but I'm drinking". Awesome.
Given the theme of the song I thought that he is talking of drinking alcohol at first but listening to it more closely, i figured that the two lines connected and that made it so much more awesome. I love it when songs break a sentence given that it is done in a smart way.
They didn't play it when I saw them live but I really wanted them to
Absolutely amazing... Can't wait to see them in September!!
MI BANDA FAVORITA, sigo sus pasos
Incredible performance
I know! I don't usually think songs sound better live, but this is really something else.

this song makes me think of Twin Peaks :D
awesome song!
This is magical

Stay on my side tonight is there best ep in my opinion
Amazing sound live!

it's a different kind of emo - emotional but not just for the sake of it. Quality music.
They are amazing! I wish they would come to Montreal :(
heard this on one tree hill i had to shazam it :)
incredible
Awesome!
love it
What happened to the love we both knew?
We both chased.
fucking. amazing.
asombroso, e intenso,

@blackops417 they are heavily influence by REAL emo. Clarity is undoubtedly an emo album but they have became more of a rock/alternative band.
♥
i think they fall under awesome.
just me
esta cancion suena mas padre en concierto
mexicanos arriba (the jimmy ) les dise qie bengan amexico
depends on how you view it...if you call bands like rites of spring emo, then jew isn't. I think these guys have surpassed the label by this point though
Jimmy Eat World are Emo. but not the bad Emo. The good one! not the awful "shopping mall emo" sound
Its not worth getting into the genre discussion anymore with how much is out there.The truth is is that it depends on your exposure to whatever kind of music. For instance. If the only music I've ever heard is metal, and mozart (classical), and then you show me jimmy eat world i'm probably going to think it sounds more like metal, than classical
I went searching for the cure video and think i found a new band just because its an emotional song doesnt mean emo i mean look at Fade to black
this song is the sex
*their
@thekeyboardplayer but the play the good emo ; )
Are these guys really considered Emo? I love this song and can't stand Emo but this doesn't sound Emo.
