Such extraordinary quotes in their music

Long before this album came out I was collecting songs digitally. Started because of having iPods. I have over 22k songs, and some of those files are 18 years old or they were when I first got them. They've been copied across many hard drives over the years. Back in the day when an album came out on Vinyl you'd listen to the entire thing as a whole, and the album itself was a piece of work. With Spotify that doesn't happen anymore, and that's why I can't do it.

I also saw them do this live with her playing the harp. This record wasn't out yet so it was the first time I heard this song. They're from Pennsylvania, and I saw them in Baltimore a few times. I think one time they played with Showbread, As Cities Burn, and Chasing Victory, but I went to so many shows back then it's hard to keep it straight.

My best friend sent me video from the last show he'd see of them where he was on stage with them. He's the guy who got me into them all those years ago, and it was a really emotional thing for him to say goodbye to them. We played in hardcore bands, and 'Gentlemen' was the first mwY song we heard on a compilation disc. I couldn't have expected the album that song came on because it wasn't very hardcore, but it was absolutely amazing. The second album is my favorite though.

I saw them on that tour. I THINK it was before the album was out, though. Do you remember who the other bands on the tour were?

​@@drownthepoor could have been Portugal the man?

@@daniellamarquez9482 That might be right. I definitely remember them touring together.

It’s a beautiful ride. Welcome to the show. 🙏🏽

Sorry to hear that bro but just a lesson on the journey. I hope this message finds you well.

Same

Best prayers to you, fellow mwY brother from a mwY sister.. :-) God bless.

I know its 11 months later. but, I hope you have braved the storm and came out better!

2 years later, i hope you are well!

Me too ❤️

@@floatingvibez Me three.

He uses those lyrics a lot in live versions of this song. Same with "Play for a passing prostitutes and an answering guitar". I prefer the extra pillow lyrics as well

@@FALCOR1220 "out of tune guitar" but I digress. This tune is one of my favorites

That's what the entire song is about, a past relationship. While they've loosened up lately, Back in the day Tooth&Nail was very strict and I'm sure they wouldn't allow those lyrics at the time.

I dislike religion

then laughing right after

its about God

@@nephilimrephaim3949 its about him giving up hope on the woman he was planning on marrying and coming to terms with it, understanding he has the greatest love already.

For this version.. In a sweater poorly knit and an unsuspecting smile Little Moses drifts downstream in the Nile A fumbling reply, an awkward rigid laugh And I'm carried helpless by my floating basket raft Your flavor in my mind's back and forth between Sweeter than any wine, as bitter as mustard greens And it's light and dark as honeydew and pumpernickel bread The trap I set for you seems to have caught my leg instead Go plow some other field, and try and forget my name We'll see what harvest yields, and, supposing I'd do the same I planted rows of peas, by the first week of July They should have come up to my knees But they were maybe ankle high Take the fingers from your flute to weave your colored yarns While I play for passing prostitutes on an out of tune guitar I hear there's someone new, an extra pillow in your bed The trap I set for you seems to have caught my leg instead You're a door-without-a-key, a field-without-a-fence You made a holy fool of me and I've thanked you ever since And if she comes circling back we'll end where we'd begun Like two pennies on the train track the train crushed into one But if I'm a crown without a king, if I'm a broken open seed If I come without a thing, then I come with all I need No boat out in the blue, no place to rest your head The trap I set for you seems to have caught my leg instead I do not exist, I do not exist, I do not exist I do not exist, I do not exist, I do not exist I do not exist, I do not exist, I do not exist I do not exist, only You exist, I do not exist

Beautiful quote. i have just come across this band and have connected with it in so many ways. Will remember this band until my dying days.

no boat out of the blue, no place to rest your head. *the trap i set for you seems to’ve caught my leg instead.*

One of the greatest and humbling lines in the mwY discography.

not that I can find, no.

I go numb when I hear a base line...

with this band, you can do it with every instrument. i have seen them just about every time theyve come to new england since maybe 2006 07? seen em open, seen em headline. seen em play to a packed house and an almost empty room. big stages, little stages, barricades or packed in close, inches away. it has never been disappointing, except when the set is done. this band ALWAYS delivers, always sounds tight and professional, well rehearsed, but the songs and the sets flow so fluidly and they are so in tune with each other that it is always a unique experience, always something there that can really catch your ear, if even for a moment. the bass lines. shit the base tone. a small crack in aarons voice or a sudden burst of screaming or gregs harmonies. and their ability to know and play their songs so well together that they can add in some theatrics. aaron dancing with his child on stage, the flowers on the mic stands, aarons rotating cast of tambourines, the accordion, acoustic guitar. The willingness to experiment with different sounds, styles, and their ability to mature as a band while still being very distinctly mewithoutYou. and despite ones beliefs in god, however you choose to interpret that, the songs are surprisingly relatable. last, but certainly not least. those. drums. i have played in a few bands, some for fun, some a little more serious. a good drummer can really make or break a band. a great drummer can make a good band great, or a great band even greater. these drums are perfect for this band and these songs, and it has been one of my lifes great pleasures to be able to see and watch these musicians play, and this band perform.

That it's the most beautifully designed comment I've ever read. Jag är förvånad över ditt ordval och din kärlek.

the dean's other office.

Hugh Dancy

He's Jason Lee pretty!!

Those were my literal exact thoughts

Yes!!!!

he's so pretty

I believe 2010. But, i can't really an accurate date.

We recorded this at Blackburn college! I believe before 2010, maybe around 08ish!

Is there are full set available?

Oh yeah.... you're right. He says "while i play for passing prostitutes on an out of tune guitar". That's super interesting

SHYKIE he’s saying he’s just entertaining random women while the women he speaks of has another pillow in her bed. I think implying he is playing the field while she settled?

@@SeraphimOne he seems to say this line instead when playing live

@@DaltonGoesSlow True. I remember he changes it in this one as well ua-cam.com/video/qZv-iByJvBE/v-deo.html It's my favourite live version

@@stevenwood6939 yes, the first album was basically him healing from breaking up with the woman he always planned on marrying, he sings about how he comes to have understood it throughout the albums. i see this as him letting go and making room in his heart for his future wife, which he has achieved.
