This was my dear friend, Summer's favorite song. She passed away recently. She sang the shit out of this song and meant every word that touched her heart. She sure as hell touched my heart. Rest in peace sweet Summer.
This Song SAVED my life so, so many times...Thank you for writing, singing, and performing with so much SOUL and so much LIGHT and so much LOVE. Thank you Thank You Thank You...
Im glad this video is still here, its been almost 14 years since the last time i watched. Im now 32 years old, and that song was one of the reasons i really wanted to play the guitar and i did it. The passion on that song....its simple that pure passion.
I love how he starts yelling into the microphone near the end. this is my first time listening. My thought - His throat must hurt alot... I'm crying.. Why am I crying?!
lyrics - Hope dangles on a string Like slow-spinning redemption Winding in and winding out The shine of it has caught my eye And roped me in So mesmerizing so hypnotizing I am captivated I am Vindicated I am selfish I am wrong I am right, I swear I'm right Swear I knew it all along and I am flawed But I am cleaning up so well I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself So clear like the diamond in your ring Cut to mirror your intention Oversized and overwhelmed The shine of which has caught my eye And rendered me so isolated So motivated I am certain now that I am Vindicated I am selfish I am wrong I am right, I swear I'm right Swear I knew it all along and I am flawed But I am cleaning up so well I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself So turn up the corners of your lips Part them and feel my fingertips Trace the moment, fall forever Defense is paper thin Just one touch and I'd be in too deep now To ever swim against the current So let me slip away So let me slip away So let me slip away So let me slip against the current So let me slip away (4x) Vindicated I am selfish I am wrong I am right, I swear I'm right Swear I knew it all along And I am flawed, but I am cleaing up so well I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself Slight hope It dangles on a string Like slow spinning redemption
It's a very beautiful song, but I really like this version so much more than the studio version. I only wish I could sing it that well, and I love his guitar too! It's beautiful and I'd like one like that!
This song means so much. You can feel the power and emotion in his singing. Every word has such power. The rough, unpolished surface just makes it that much more authentic. I would 'like' it a thousand times if I could.
This is one of my favorites on my karaoke list and one of the few that have been requested. Intentionally learned THIS version because it almost makes me cry every time I hear it. The emotions in your voice and the music are beautifully intense.
Damn this song is good. I can only imagine what it must have been like to be in that room when Chris sang it. I mean I get chills just from sitting on my ass watching a RUclips video of it but just thinking about being there in person... Anyone who does NOT get chills from this doesn't have a heartbeat.
This particular version is what inspired a majority of my tattoos. You help me out through a major time in my life where I contemplated whether or not it was worth living. Thank you Brian for everything that you've done for your fans. I really wish you had not taken the Deep plunge and gone political with your new album, but then again you got to go where your heart is. I only wish I could have saw your performance prior to this new album but none the less I still respect your music. Thank you again for those songs and thank you again for this you have no idea how much of a difference it makes some people's lives
*Chills* My God, what a beautiful song. And performance. I actually like the huskiness in his voice here. It gives it this raw quality and you can really hear his emotion. Gets me every time.
a concert with secondhand serenade @ dashboard will be the best one 4 me if ever .. the feelings of both artist while singing their songs are very unique ..
for those of you who are hating on his voice, this is artistic singing, hes singing his heart out and shows emotion to his songs, hes not sucking hes actualy doing an amazing job, hes saying what he has to how he has too

funny comment so props for that, but to be fair Adam Levine is pretty damn talented himself, whether he utilizes it enough with his pop music is a different question though
this might be the most incredible thing i've ever seen.. ever. i almost went and hid behind my chair at the last chorus. i would sell my soul to sing and write like this
i didn't know he was sick? wow, that makes this even more incredible...i don't think he sounds bad AT ALL...and i actually DO sing...it's so RAW...absolutely amazing...and the passion...it's ridiculous, i wish this was how EVERY performer would play...props to him AND his vocals...totally fits...DASHBOARD ROCKS!
Damn, he really put everything into that performance. You could see it in his face and hear it in his voice. And although his voice was a little rusty at some points, I gotta give this guy his props. He rocked it.
That line hope dangles on string like slow spinning redemption.... so that’s actually pretty real. Hope is what keeps a failing relationship together on one or both ends of the relationship. But it is hanging in front of you both and is slow spinning as it fades away and can never be reached. And then in the end when it’s over both sides will see as a learning experience. Any doubt or guilt fades away over time and we are vindicated.
Yes Priya...definitely "the feels" from this one! I'd never heard it acoustically and its so amazzzzzzing. I'm so happy I found this this morning...it already made my day. #mustshare
i remeber the day i first listened to his music like it was yesterday :). this song captured me into music :). this song actually got me into music ^_^
I like how all the hate comments have no idea the musical talent Chris Carraba possesses. He sings and writes lyrics from his soul. He is the beginning and the epitome of what emo music (btw emo isn't that whiny screamo sh*t you hear from gothed up 20 year olds, it's the music that shows the artist's true raw emotions in their work).

This guy absolutely poured his heart out into this song, incredible. This is what music is all about, the feel
He did in pretty much every one of their songs tbh
The very last chorus of the song was delivered with full emotions..thumbs up
Sharkie Ramirez
Dude held nothing back.. Powerful stuff 👍
thats why they call them emo
This Song SAVED my life so, so many times...Thank you for writing, singing, and performing with so much SOUL and so much LIGHT and so much LOVE. Thank you Thank You Thank You...
Andrew Chang straight to endure bro.. Greetings from Argentina..
Ignacio Martinez thank you bro
Andrew Chang hope you are doing good still bro
SAME!
Im glad this video is still here, its been almost 14 years since the last time i watched. Im now 32 years old, and that song was one of the reasons i really wanted to play the guitar and i did it. The passion on that song....its simple that pure passion.
That last "FLAAAAWWWWED"!! Chills...chills every time.
The emotion is so fucking crazy. Perfect.
The emotions he put into his songs
THIS is what music is missing EMOTION!
My FAVORITE rendition of this song. so emotional and raw and he's just singing his heart & soul out.
0:00 to 3:22, best part
Seriously this has got to be one of the most emotional live performance I have ever seen!
Drunk and once again alcohol brings me here.
Amazing lol.
True say !
🍻
the emotion... and he did all that sitting while playing the guitar ..
I love how he starts yelling into the microphone near the end.
this is my first time listening.
My thought -
His throat must hurt alot...
I'm crying.. Why am I crying?!
It seems like he's gonna burst into tears! He was feeling it for sure.
Love this song and his voice!
Spider-Man 2,anyone?
forever
+Vinícius Gomes Yes! haha
+Paula Pardo *-*
But this is acoustic version.
everyone!
Acoustic versions are life.
"FLAAAAWED" fucking beautiful.
lyrics -
Hope dangles on a string
Like slow-spinning redemption
Winding in and winding out
The shine of it has caught my eye
And roped me in
So mesmerizing so hypnotizing
I am captivated
I am
Vindicated
I am selfish
I am wrong
I am right, I swear I'm right
Swear I knew it all along and
I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
So clear like the diamond in your ring
Cut to mirror your intention
Oversized and overwhelmed
The shine of which has caught my eye
And rendered me so isolated
So motivated
I am certain now that
I am
Vindicated
I am selfish I am wrong
I am right, I swear I'm right
Swear I knew it all along and
I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
So turn up the corners of your lips
Part them and feel my fingertips
Trace the moment, fall forever
Defense is paper thin
Just one touch and I'd be in too deep now
To ever swim against the current
So let me slip away
So let me slip away
So let me slip away
So let me slip against the current
So let me slip away (4x)
Vindicated
I am selfish I am wrong
I am right, I swear I'm right
Swear I knew it all along
And I am flawed, but I am cleaing up so well
I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
Slight hope
It dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption
2017 and i miss dashboard 😭
Whoalah Beck they are back
I don't know why but I feel like crying
It doesn't get much better than this. This is music. So raw, so real and so amazing.
2019 and it’s still a banger.
This and Signal fire are my favourite songs from Spiderman trilogy forever will be my favourite songs
no effects .. no light effects...that's a pure talent
His voice is so beautiful. I just started crying and I don't know why. You can hear all his passion antis absolutely amazing.
It's a very beautiful song, but I really like this version so much more than the studio version. I only wish I could sing it that well, and I love his guitar too! It's beautiful and I'd like one like that!
This song means so much. You can feel the power and emotion in his singing. Every word has such power. The rough, unpolished surface just makes it that much more authentic. I would 'like' it a thousand times if I could.
I miss the days when music was worth listening to. For example, this song.
He plays with his soul
That last chorus. Goosebumps.
He most definitely said "shellfish" on the beginning of the 2nd chorus.
2:45 - 3:09 = best part
He's going ham on that part. Giving it his all 👏👏👏
2:58 he allmost stood up. he was about to pull some kinda bad-assed acoustic stage dive.
This is what true music is and feels like. Those lyrics are life. The best thing any of us can do is sit down and actually listen to the meaning.
I absolutely and totally adore Chris!!! His performance is amazing, you can see the passion in his face. Live long!! And please keep on singing.
damn, now that's a true artist right there. a person who can sing with that much emotion and make it sound good is universe.
Caralho, que nostalgia essa música me da, dos creditos do homem aranha 2 😔❤️ sdds daquela epoca
Gustavo Cicilinski humm rsrs
legend...no words for him.....
I watch this years later and it has lost nothing! AMAZING!!
So in love with his voice and this song!
Why does his voice sound so so so so (there's no word for it) when he yells "flawed"?
OrangeChickenPrime good one , but I really listen to the emotions that he put and the effort in this song , 2:45 - 3:09 💦
So frickin raw and powerful
tout simplement vibrant! j'en ai la chaire de poule, on regarde encore et encore et c'est à chaque fois la même emotion. merci Chris Carrabba.
Chris is the most perfect man to walk the earth....
Thank you for sharing your beautiful soul and be my inspiration...
This is one of my favorites on my karaoke list and one of the few that have been requested. Intentionally learned THIS version because it almost makes me cry every time I hear it.
The emotions in your voice and the music are beautifully intense.
nostalgic 14 years ago so emotional days.. \m/ 1
This is real music with heart and passion.....big like!!!!
I still like it after all these years. Yep, brings back memories! ;)
shit! very ambitious to do this in acoustic,..but he nailed it!
WOW the shear emotion that comes out at 2:50 is incredible. how can you not love this
I come back to this every couple of years. I'm a black dude who mainly listens to rap but, fuck, I really enjoy this for some reason.
thats the best part of the video... he puts everything into the song
Damn this song is good. I can only imagine what it must have been like to be in that room when Chris sang it. I mean I get chills just from sitting on my ass watching a RUclips video of it but just thinking about being there in person... Anyone who does NOT get chills from this doesn't have a heartbeat.

Angel Sanchez I thought his name was Chris
I love the emotion he had. I love how he choosed his vocal, so raw, so flawed, so fragile... Just like a man lost his someone he love.
there is some massive passion and emotion in this video. Gives me the chills every time....
*Chills* My God, what a beautiful song. And performance. I actually like the huskiness in his voice here. It gives it this raw quality and you can really hear his emotion. Gets me every time.
Ahh I saw them play in Connecticut sunday, it was the best day of my life.
He's such an inspiration o:
That last chorus has the so mucn emotion in it. Its amazing.
a concert with secondhand serenade @ dashboard will be the best one 4 me if ever ..
the feelings of both artist while singing their songs are very unique ..
Sung with such passion! 2019 anyone.
love wat hes wearing. and his voice.
for those of you who are hating on his voice, this is artistic singing, hes singing his heart out and shows emotion to his songs, hes not sucking hes actualy doing an amazing job, hes saying what he has to how he has too
Hope dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption
Winding in and winding out
The shine of it has caught my eye
And roped me in
So mesmerizing, so hypnotizing
I am captivated
[Chorus]
I am Vindicated
I am selfish
I am wrong
I am right
I swear I'm right
I swear I knew it all along
And I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
So clear
Like the diamond in your ring
Cut to mirror your intentions
Oversized and overwhelmed
The shine of which has caught my eye
And rendered me so isolated, so motivated
I am certain now that
[Chorus]
So turn
Up the corners of your lips
Part them and feel my finger tips
Trace the moment, fall forever
Defense is paper thin
Just one touch and I'd be in
Too deep now to ever swim against the current
So let me slip away [3x]
So let me slip against the current
So let me slip away [4x]
[Chorus]
Slight hope
It dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption...
God the emotions in this just make it so much better.
Hope they never delete this version. Amazing
Anyone else feel Adam Levine stole his look from Chris? too bad he couldn't steal his talent
dddaaaaaaayuuummm
shots fired.
funny comment so props for that, but to be fair Adam Levine is pretty damn talented himself, whether he utilizes it enough with his pop music is a different question though
Adam Levine started off kinda hipsterish too. He is talented and have a unique voice even though I don't like his pop persona now
love this song and Dashboard Confessional they are really creative and original. So good, they make me feel the music!
Best of spider man 2 score
that is a gorgeous man with a gorgeous voice
i love the raspness of his voice. it just adds to the intensity at the end
jesus, he just PUMMELS this. so much strain, but that's what makes it great. absolutely incredible.
there is so much emotion in that last chorus.
i like how shows genuine emotions during his songs
I love Dashboard Confessional. This song gives me chills.
All his emotion is fantastic!
this might be the most incredible thing i've ever seen.. ever. i almost went and hid behind my chair at the last chorus. i would sell my soul to sing and write like this
wow. it was at an end of a tour, so his voice was shot. it was passionate, and if you hear him live he's generally right on his notes.
Would you tell me which tour? I'd like to find more songs of this performance
i didn't know he was sick? wow, that makes this even more incredible...i don't think he sounds bad AT ALL...and i actually DO sing...it's so RAW...absolutely amazing...and the passion...it's ridiculous, i wish this was how EVERY performer would play...props to him AND his vocals...totally fits...DASHBOARD ROCKS!
2019 and still gives me the chills
That's a man who loves his craft!! Well done!
Damn, he really put everything into that performance. You could see it in his face and hear it in his voice. And although his voice was a little rusty at some points, I gotta give this guy his props. He rocked it.
