- The used singer Bert McCracken talks addiction and his new life in Australia during Good Things Festival in Sydney. Video for 10 daily. Check out the full article at tendaily.com.a...
He really did change. He is seriously one of the strongest people I’ve ever heard about. When I hear about his past it still makes me want to cry. I’m very happy for him. He now has a family and he’s happy. Sometimes happiness comes to people very late in life, but when it does... it comes strong
Man, an unexpexted tear came down after reading your last sentence. Aho!
So inspiring. He was a mess; he looks so much healthier and happier.
DAMN HE LOOKS HEALTHY AF COMPARED TO BEFORE
Mannn, he’s a changed man looks like he’s took his life back and that’s wonderful.
It's crazy how you think about what you're going to say before you say it, when you're sober.
This is great
thank you! he was amazing to chat to
I am SHOOOOOOOK that one of my fav RUclipsrs likes my fav band and I had no idea. I love this.
I drank heavy for 4 years now i just moderate my drinking like if i drink i don't drink for at least a week until i drink again. So I'm getting better thank God.
stay strong buddy!
I absolutely love Bert and The Used! They've been my favorite band for almost fifteen years and always will be. Good job Bert! Keep up the good work. ❤
I am alive today because of Bert and The Used.
hes really got a maturity to him now that he earned through hard work and dedication to getting sober, got rid of the some other creature to become more fully himself, which is already wonderful and divine in itself, he was given a great gift !
I'm so proud on how Bert is doing better and better every single day ❤️ I love him so much.
I love this man on such a deep level lol. About as deep as one can love a person that they’ve never met. Lol such a genuine, fun, loving guy. 💜
I’m so freaking proud of him
Dude looks so good!
I used to listen to the used songs when i was 2nd year hi school.. until present because i like the way he sings and his originality of making music.. godbless
needed this...Just a little bit >.>
I never knew with Bert, but considering how early he changed things..no surprise...compare his change to Danny of Asking Alexandria or Ronnie Radke originally of Escape the Fate who let it go to far...You can see how far addiction can change a person, and also how very reasonably and possibly a change can be made for these people...Good for anyone and everyone who can identify a problem and conquer it.
Well, not everyone is the same. What for some people may take a short amount of time, for others it might last forever. This is a process. 💁🏻♀
Fuck yeah man you guys made so much great music that helped so many get through tough times , I'm happy you're with us today
I really needed this!!! I saved it on my phone
Ughhhhhh I’m in love with Bert lol
@Cherise Davidson He really reminded me of Kurt Cobain in this video. The blonde hair plus his speaking voice is also similar to Kurt's. But yeah Bert does look really really good here
I would have never fucking guessed.. I grew up watching this dude shred warped tour, I seen him headline the damn show, literally everyone there was to see the used. He looks way different, in a good way though, Young and healthy!!
i recently watch their latest videos, bert is still doing great on their songs, but it's so sad to see that bert didn't scream 😣😣😣.. but i still looking forward to this band,..they made my teenage days fun and cool.
The Lighthouse has some screaming in it.
Yeah he doesn't scream anymore...maybe he damaged his vocal chords?? Wonder what happened.
@@Belgriffinite i think you're confusing that with "the lottery"
love to see this. much love for that guy: great artist
i love him so much ugh
I love his music…glad he’s sober too 🙏🏻
C'mon Bert keep pushing u can do it stay alive bro
I remember The Used at the Much Music Video awards & they were fkng amazing
Very true! I partied with burt multiple times in 2004. Im so happy hes doing so well!
Omg how was it??? Fun?? Scary?? Crazy??
Tell us how it was!!
It was hella fun! I met bert at Brighton ski resort. I was working in the rental department. He came in to rent a snowboard. And as soon as I seen him im like ohh shit its bert from the used. Im a local so I knew who he was. A long story short, he came back the next day to ride again and thats when we hit it off. We started talking again I told him him I've seen him play live a few times and he's like oh hell ya. He's like hey when do you get off work let's go take some turns. And im like hell yes! We met up at the bar and had a few drinks and chips n dip which he payed for it all. Seriously he was so nice and very funny! Than after the resort was closing so we hopped in my car with bert and his buddy Brett and my other employer ben and we had a smoke sesh and I turned on the cd player and I had his album in. Which was totally by accident. And bert looked at me and said hell ya. He skipped up to say days ago and cranked up the volume and he started singing in my front seat in the car to his album. I looked back at my buddy Ben and im like holy shit im tripping! Best day ever. We than again hung out a few more times after that. I even went to orem to meet up with him and hang out we watched a movie and smoked uped. He was leaving that week to go to California to record there second album. I kept one of his rental forms. Which I still have to this day. Lol. He signed a picture that I had of him wearing a black dress at the warptour and he was like hell ya thats cool. And I've never missed his shows when he comes to slc. I just seen them back in Sept. Of 2021 with coheed. I also got the album vulnerable signed and a poster. I've got more stuff signed by him than any other band I've met. Afi and the used are my top 2 favorite bands of all time and always will be!
@@brettchastain5297 Aw that's such a cool story!! And yess AFI and The Used are amazing bands 👌
THE BAND HAS CHANGED OVER THE YEARS
Love him soooo much! ❤️🤍
So happy to see him happy but sad that he's so far away :(
16 year old me would cry because I could never marry Bert
I was a big fan of him in back in 2005.
My core band THE USED
0:56-1:05 This makes me feel much better about spending a lot of money to be in the front row haha. And yup I do go to concerts with no friends and still have a lot of fun. Pretty relatable Bert Lol
Alcohol is indeed one of the worst substances but so many people claim sober but smoke a shit ton of weed
From Orem UTah to Australia!
Will read books together again someday
Come on Thailand The used
He's cute
He looks like Jurgen Klopp but with screams and music
1:25 #ChemicalsInTheSky
That’s my dad’s cousin 😂
My mums bestfriends husband is him
12 step? bert obviously has and he looks and sounds great... a
And then Australia went sUPER authoritarian during cvd. They showed their true colors. It’s still a prison island.
Jürgen klopp?? :))
Kicked out the drummer because he was/is straight edge
Technically, it was mostly Quinn and Jeph that kicked Brandon out. Bert was kinda just in his own little bubble. Bert didn't even see the issue.
@@oddtick bert is gay 🤣🤣🤣
He wasn’t kicked out, he was asked to play for one of his favorite bands
Mia Goldstein its hard to say no to rancid
Gabriel Clermont yes
uggh tru
Him and gee should make up
pretty sure they did years ago
@@alextuohy861 Did they??
@@pastries8393 im super late, but yeah! i dont know the exact time they started talking again, but i think Bert mentioned smth adound 2014??? (i'm probably messing this up, dont take my word for it), but he said in an interview back in 2019 that he'd love to tour with My Chem again
i think all the "anti Gerard" stuff lately is just for shits and giggles since mcr is an active band now lmao
@@nestlyyyy Yeah that makes sense! I recently found out that Gerard tweeted something in 2014 about how scared he got because an article made it sound as if Bert had died. That was heart wrenching. Good thing they made up long ago
