half•alive is legit my favorite band they’re FANTASTIC
Kaylie Mancino THEY ARE AMAAAAZING
There my 3.
Number one with a bullet!
IKR!!!
They do share some similarities with Twenty One Pilots but they are an amazing band and their music is very well done. I would actually like for Half•Alive and Twenty One Pilots to do a song together. I think it would be very interesting and a wonderful song.
Legit next big band in 5 years. I cant wait for them to blow up. Just a few months ago most of their songs only had like 300,000 plays.
they’re starting to get big because of geometry dash. although I hate when people spam comment sections “WHOS HERE FROM ARROW OOOOOHSJSSJGJGGIJFCH” and hate even more when people make shitty “99% of comments: arrow!!!! -36675771968363hskshdhdn% of comments: actually comments”.
@@ireadysucks3026 are we the same person? I couldn’t agree with you more.
3 more years to go
@@ireadysucks3026 it's but a part of the actual reason: just fucking great music
YES HE MADE A HALF.ALIVE VIDEO!!!!!! (also here's a super clichè plug I made a video going in depth on their song "the fall")
You should do a “do it all the time “ by I don’t know how but they found me EXPLAINED
YES PLEASE
That needs to happen
I discovered half•alive back when the clique thought ‘tip toes’ was a leaked tøp song 😂. They quickly became one of my favorite bands. Thank you for another great video!
Same!!
Same! 😂😂😂
I’m so glad I did though, they are SOOO good!!
Same
@@mood9560 same! 😁
Flurriex A year later, haha!
I'm so glad they're finally getting more attention 😍
Thank you!!!! This band 🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍 I knew them b4 your video . I liked him in the moderates too
Dang, that's way back.
Same!
Tyler and Josh are literally in the half alive members names XD HAHAHA
Nice profile pic
thanks, it's amazing right!!! lol
Ikr XDDD
oh, why thank you! Both bands are incredible!!! I like your profile pic!!! SUBSCRIBED!!!!! ;)
STAY (HALF) ALIVE ||-//
I'm so proud of myself I came up with that!!!!, but really STAY ALIVE
EDIT: WOW 34 subscribers!! that's nice!
...is this loss???
•half•alive•is actually really good•they helped me a lot during the hiatus•of twentyønepiløts•thanks for this•
h•a
They are SOO good!!! I found ten during the Hiatus too! I’m so glad! 💛😄
10/10 hiatus savours
I also found them on the hiatus!!! So worth it, one of my favorite bands so far H•A
ah! half•alive has to be my favorite underrated band right now. i'm so glad they are getting more recognition!
DUDE I LOVE HALF•ALIVE IM SO GLAD YOU MADE A VIDEO ABOUT THEM
I love half•alive and tøp but i really dont see the similarities between the two except maybe slight similarities in themes in the lyrics
Blowing up because dance moves, that's the dream
Really enjoyed the video, super glad to see you’re covering half•alive. Their music is great, and really this band deserves the attention. I like how you brought up Josh’s old band The Moderates. That band actually produced some amazing songs as well and everyone should definitely check them out! Their song Black and White literally could be a half•alive song it’s cool how Josh definitely had this style already going.
I love their music! I didn't know a lot of the facts and it makes me appreciate the band even more. I was, however, hoping that this video would expand a bit on the copying tøp issue though. When the band started out, their image had heavy parallels to tøp. The singer wore a floral kimono in one of the music videos, that same video had a scene identical to that of the guns for hands video, they made a symbol reminiscent of tøp's: ~|•, and started with a singer/rapper and a drummer. They also had dark imagery for promo pics and videos, much like those from blurryface era.
Now, their image is much more their own and I'm grateful for that, especially because the music has always been great.
Their music have this "something" to me, just like Twenty One Pilots. Second best band 😏
Same here👍
They certainly deserve more of a following when you recognize their genius and lack of resources (although I guess that’s a lot of small bands).
I stumbled across them a few months ago and instantly became hooked. I think it is literally impossible not to dance or groove when Still Feel starts bumping. I’m glad you found them too. Great video and great channel, keep up the great work!
I found half•alive during the tøp hiatus when I fell for a “leak” of the new tøp album. The first song I heard from them was the fall :)
Ashley Elephant same! 😂 I’m so glad I found them though!! 💛
You know, I found out half•alive one month ago and I listened to them like every day. And now you've posted this. Thank you, professor, you're the best
Why aren’t you more popular? This content is so high quality! I’m glad I found your channel, and I hope you grow even bigger.
I think comparing half•alive to TØP is kind of unfair to both bands. half•alive has only four songs out so far (or so does Apple Music tell me) & Alternative/Indie music has a broad spectrum of influences everyone should have access to. I really love The Fall for being a simple, kind-of melancholic love song or rather "song about love" I don't necessarily find in most TØP songs. Maybe it's just me but I think people should wait for more songs to be released before they completely sign them off as some "copy", I think they'll find great enjoyment in the band.
Here after Now, Not Yet and In Florescence and yes they are very good :)
I actually got into them 3 years ago during the hiatus when the clique were claiming that they were copying tøp. It makes sense that I fell in love with the band since both bands do share some similarities. I went to their concert last November and they were amazing I'm so proud of how far they've come 👏🏿
I JUST discovered Half-Alive and I was listening their songs for two hours straight! And NOW I see that you made a video about them? It couldn't get any better :) Thank you for sharing not only this great and exceptional content (in general on your channel) but also your passion! It is contagious and makes our lives better!
I saw them live and it was amazing
I’ve been listening to half alive for quite some time now but I never really knew anything about them - but now I do and so I really appreciate this video, thank you very much!
Thanks for making this video Cliff! I’ve been listening to their songs and I already can’t stop replaying them!
I'm so glad I actually found an artist BEFORE you made a video
YES! I am so glad you discovered them! They have so much potential
im so glad you mentioned the moderates! good research! not enough people have heard about their music and i really wish for half alive put their songs in their setlist
HOLY CRAP! Never thought you’d make a video on them!
yeah, i’ve listened to them before this video came out and i’m so happy that you decided they were worth the mention :) it makes me happy to see such a good bad get the recognition that i think they deserve :))
Yo Clifford, can u review the new Half alive album Condtions of A Punk plz! I love ur stuff and wish u would come back dude! Also, Twenty one piltos are prolly dropping an album sometime within the next six months and I hope you react to that as well!
I agree
Would definitely recommend half•alive to everyone! I discovered them about a year ago (before their newest song "still feel.") And absolutely loved them. I was - and still am so pumped they're becoming more popular and getting some well deserved credit!
I found out and subscribed to half•alive when they had like 10k subscribers. I love them so much. P.S. I’m so happy you found them as well.
Love the video! Half Alive is one of my favorites. Also, congrats on being liked by TØP!
I love this band so much! I’m so happy that they’re getting more recognition. Their lyrics are so good!
I went and saw half•Alive live this summer. It was so cool they’re the best. I saw he All American Rejects and they’re one of my favorites too.
At first I thought they were copying TOP, but then I listened to them and realized they weren’t. Their sound is different. I think they’re so awesome; I actually really love all 3 songs on their EP. Thanks for the video!!! :)
I’ve been a fan for along time and i love how open they are with their Christianity on their personal social medias.
My favorite song from The Moderates is Where Are You. I first listened to it in 2017 and that was the time that I needed it.
you finally did a video on half alive, thanks so much, hoped you'd do it!
If you like Half.Alive - Still Feel, also check out Sure Sure - Hands Up Heads Down, and most importantly an album called The English Rivera by the band, Metronomy.
Thank you ♥️
Sorry, haven't been watching your videos lately. Just wanted to remind you of HOW AWESOME YOUR CHANNEL IS. And again, congrats on 100k.😁
They're finally getting recognized. I've been dreading but waiting for this for a year, man. I'm so proud!
Josh Taylor is actually an incredible dude. Seriously think he's gonna be one of the best storytellers in music over the next few years. I love the fact that he directs all their music videos, and has his own youtube channel where you can go watch his older stuff and really get to understand his brain more. Super cool.
i still remember when their "Still Feel" video at yt with 100k view poppin up at my recommendation
thank you half•alive and thank you youtube algorithms
half•alive is one of my newest faves. i mean, if it was just their sound they'd be cool and vibey but not necessarily amazing. the choreo takes it up a notch. But my favourite thing is picking apart the meaning in the lyrics.
They are so amazing! Thank you for making a video about them :)
Thank you for introducing me to them! I've been playing half•alive on repeat
I got into half alive a few months ago! (3, maybe? 4?I don't really remember.) I love their music. Can't wait for them to find success.
I will say that some of their past songs have taken a lot of influence from TØP but still feel sounds a lot more unique but also kinda fun and the music video looked cool too. I really liked it and i hope they write more songs like that in the future
I just found out about them yesterday and now I'm watching this, definitely gonna keep an eye on them in the future and listen to their music, they sound really good...
Also his name is actually Josh Taylor? No wonder I like them
I actually just started listening to half•alive. I mean they do sound a little like tøp so no wonder why I like them 😂
YASSSSSSSSS, IVE BEEN WAITING EVER SINCE I SUBBED! THANK YOU CLIFF!
I’ve been waiting for you to do a video on half~alive!
i'm slightly disappointed at my fangirl skills because i only knew 6/7 of the facts
Abeer //
I also only knew 6/7 too smh I’m a fake fan 😂😂😍
Their songs feel like extra TOP songs. Love 'em lol.
Can you do a video on the band Greek Fire next? Thanks Cliff!
they’re actually really nice irl
if you go to one of their concerts,
*stay. to. the. end.*
you’ll get to talk to them. :)
nathan.young u posted this awhile ago, but I’m considering going to one of their shows in September. where would u wait to meet them? stay in the building? wait outside? that would be so freakin cool :’)
Had been waiting for this one
Thanks so much for the song I love you for that and thanks for the interview
So weird. I just started listening to Half Alive yesterday. And now this? Hah. Awesome video!
Yes I was waiting for this video!!!!
The thumbnail was exactly my reaction when I heard of them.
So I heard tip-toes and I was like um yes amazing bop I love this and then I checked their profile and expected to see tip-toes on the top 5 but it wasn’t there. Then I saw that they only made like 6 songs and I’m really confused 😂
FINALLLYYYY!!!!Ive been a fan of half alive since june 2018!!
Yes! They are so amazing and I'm so glad you're looking at their music! (Ps. Black & White is my favorite Moderates song!) I loved all of your facts! They are the same things that I've found when diving deep into the band and Josh's youtube channel 😄
Professor Stummie, will you be making another fan lyric critique? I'd love some help!
Yasssss I've been waiting for this
ive been with them so long and i swear there gonna be the next big thing
I’ve been listening to strange town by the moderates for two years now it’s so cool that the lead singer is now in one of my favourite bands
I would love for you guys to join our little community over on Patreon! It's lots of fun discussing, analysis, and songwriter lyric critique! www.patreon.com/bePatron?c=719436
Still Feel showed up on my recommendations three weeks ago and I finally clicked it two days ago. I’m HOOKED 😭❤️
Yass! Big fan here, I hope more people get to know them!
I always thought Josh Taylor sounded exactly Tyler Josheph and their music was similar to that of TØP's trench era, but i never got to the conclusion half alive were copying them.
hey clifford! i'm really glad you did something on them - they're really good. do you think you'll be doing anything on the new hozier ep or on one of lana del rey's recently released singles? (especially because the latter, if you don't pay attention to the lyrics, seems so melancholic!)
Awesome! A new-to-me band to check out. Thanks!
I love this band so much!
they're incredible
I LOVE THIS BAND SOOO MUCH!!!!
Next you should do a Gus Dapperton or Declan McKenna oml that would make my day
I remember finding them sever months ago I think from a comment on a RUclips asking for ppl to check them out (might not have been them who left the comment but a few videos later I ended up on them)
Yessss I love them so much I'm so happy you talked about them
Yes ive waited for this moment
Ugh I love this band
My 7-year-old daughter and I sing “I still feel alive . . .” at the top of our lungs in the car all the time. I love half.alive!
great video! there’s a band called Cherry Pools and they only have four songs out, you should check them out!
I fucking love this band damn
Half alive is a lit band I've liked them pretty much since the start
Hi
All songs ranked:
4) Tip Toe
3) The Fall
2) still feel.
1) (easily) aawake at night
However I love all of these songs equally so this list doesn't matter :)
Yes finally! This is such a great band.
I can’t wait for them to be a massive band in like 3 years
You know a band is great when they have a guy named Tyler and a guy named Josh
Thanks, I needed new music
You should do Who is Joywave Amazing band and Barns Courtney both are just amazing artists
When u stan half•alive so much you already know all of these facts
👀 👄 👀
You're right; they're awesome
TRUE THEY'RE AWESOME
