every time i listen to this song i just marvel at it. the message. the pain. the instruments. i love it. no refrain. no verses. just a story that builds and builds and builds till it peaks then fades out. most unique and amazing song ive ever heard.
Absolutely. The song is a 5 minute crescendo.
you have explained it so beautifully and genuinely!
Crescendo, yes. Crescendo of unexplainable emotional stress, panic, and desperation to regain what was right in front of you and now you are about to lose. “The world is falling around you”...💔
Innocence acoustic is the same. The black and white video
Lisa Loeb's Stay is the only other song I've heard that does this. No chorus, great building story.
That thing about love... no matter how much you try to forget them, even hate them, you will never completely get over them.
Did you ever get over them?
AMEN. For better or worse. Always there. The good... and the pain

I thought I was going to die loving him. But now I don’t care where he is as long as it’s not with me. I’m not the same girl I was back then
Damn you, Pauline!
It’s an insult to music that something so beautifully composed has only 1 million views in over a decade.
Au contraire , celà veut dire que nous sommes des êtres exceptionnels à vraiment aimer la très bonne musique ♥️😘👍🏻
Don’t worry. The official music video of this song has 15 million views. This version was just a delightful bonus. ❤
This reminds me of that feeling at 2am, when you're walking home, cold and alone. You went out chasing a dream, trusting in the chaos... And that dream wasn't to be yours. Who among us hasn't tasted that somber moment.
me. i haven't.
This is so freaking good. For some reason the line "Sometime around midnight" popped into my head today and I couldn’t place it. And here I am... back to being 17 again, crying my eyes out. This song is so full of raw emotion. Even the acoustic version on Spotify isn’t this good. I wish I could have this audio on its own.
There are some websites / apps to download UA-cam video (audio)
I think what makes this song amazing is a lot more that just raw unaltered vocals and instrumentals. They work extremely well with this song, but it's how this song can communicate emotion so effectively that makes me listen to it. And that communication of emotion is what makes songs amazing, regardless of medium.
And it starts
Sometime around midnight
Or at least that's when you lose yourself
For a minute or two
As you stand
Under the bar lights
And the band plays some song about forgetting yourself for a while
And the piano's this melancholy soundtrack to her smile
And that white dress she's wearing, you haven't seen her
For a while
But you know
That she's watching
She's laughing, she's turning
She's holding her tonic like a cross
The room suddenly spinning, she walks up and asks how you are
So you can smell her perfume
You can see her lying naked in your arms
And so there's a change
In your emotions
And all of these memories come rushing like feral waves to your mind
Of the curl of your bodies, like two perfect circles entwined
And you feel hopeless, and homeless, and lost in the haze of the wine
Then she leaves
With someone you don't know
But she makes sure you saw her, she looks right at you and bolts
As she walks out the door
Your blood boiling, your stomach in ropes
And then your friends say "What is it? You look like you've seen a ghost."
Then you walk
Under the streetlights
And you're too drunk to notice that everyone is staring at you
You just don't care what you look like
The world is falling around you
You just have to see her
You just have to see her
You just have to see her
You just have to see her
You just have to see her
You know that she'll break you in two
Shut the hell up!
+Regina Salinas Good Job ! Great Artists - all from the same small hood in LA.
Flawless perfection. I think I love this version the most.
For the Lovesick and Regretful......
When someone takes this kind of hold on you, no amount of time or distance will ever change how you feel...it just helps bury it so it’s not so fresh or painful. All I can say is if you feel like he/she is gone, run towards anything good and never, EVER, grab a shovel (FB creeping, looking at old photos, reading those old love letters you kept for God only knows what)! He/she will always have that part of your SOUL...... No two ways about it.
I second this. Reading old texts and photos will only prevent you from moving on forward and recovering. Find time to be with friends, take walks outside, and find the optimism that someone good is there just off the horizon.
The moment I heard this song, and every time I've heard it ever since, I am transported back to the days of my youth, the early 80s, fresh out of the Navy, 21 years of age with all of life's endless opportunities stretching out ahead of us in all its fullness, in college and dating a prima ballerina, Tina, one of the most wondrous creations with which God ever graced this Earth. You are so right. Even though its been nearly 40 years, no amount of time or distance will ever mitigate or ameliorate the pain of our parting....or the magic of our time together. Those long, dark, cold winter nights when I stared deeply, into her hazel eyes over a flickering candle, her long blonde hair cascading down over her shoulders, her lithesome, shadowy silhouette dancing mischievously on the wall, her natural grace and spiritual beauty haunt me to this day. Yes, she will ALWAYS be a part of my soul, a contributor to my life's existence and who I am.

What beautiful vulnerability in his voice and hard felt lyrics.
I just realized that I love this song
So happy I got to experience this live and it was all of the original members 😭🙏🏼
I´m not joking, THIS SONG, THE WHOLE LYRICS just happened to me this last weekend, I REALLY CANT BELIEVE THIS. I was crying beacuse this situation was sooo damn hard for me. THE WHOLE situation, exactly like this.
the whole album documents how a broken heart feels. Beautiful album, kinda glad they haven't gone pop mainstream yet cos it still resonates so deeply.
How had I never heard of this band or this song before? I've been listening to them almost nonstop for the last two weeks now!
I just found them today!
Oof. Glad you found them now tho.
I heard this song once on the radio in Houston years ago and had to pull my car over because I was balling my eyes out, even worse I never heard who the hell sang the damn song!!! 3 weeks ago I stumbled across their absolutely fantastic cover of Goodbye Horses and finally found them!!! They are truly brilliant musicians!!!
Cheers
This is my favorite version of this song. I cannot even describe how amazing this song is. I'm just disappointed that this version is not on Spotify.
I love how this song builds and builds and then suddenly it's all over.... the violins are epic!
So pure and raw. So awesome.
Finally real music a real band!! Not the garbage around these days, thank you!! Thiers crap and thiers real artistry real music Bravo!!
Best version...anything acoustic by these guys is EPIC. Keep doing what you do
The song is deep by any measure.... not verse chorus verse chorus verse.
It is a story... a deep emotional story... told so very well through the words, built upon the music.
I'm so glad to have found this rendition, which is so moving.
So much emotion in this song.
this video is stunning, very powerful. he's so present with the song - looks angry, like he's going to cry, like he's really going through it.
I love this song, I wish there was an extended version.
16 years since in and this remains the best version of the song.
Absolutely phenomenal! This song was well put together and the instruments along with the voice and the emotions behind it make you feel the song. Spectacular love it!
Just an amazing song, who doesn't feel emotion listening to it ?
Darin Andersen sure i do
Great Version. Such a great composition of music.
I feel the violins playing inside of my soul- no joke! Such a powerful, poignant song!
The lead singer/guitarist's transition from novelist to musician was absolutely ingenious, and we all benefited from that.
It’s 2021 and still amazing
everytime i revisit this i have to listen to it a couple times to fully take it all in.. such a beautiful emotion filled song
This song is this time capsule moment remembering where you were and in life its that chance to reflect on either what could of been or what your lamenting about your life choice!!!! Either way this song is fricken amazing ! Rock on music fam!
Man 12 years on and this song still makes me cry. If someone ever asked me to pick a song that matches my life I would choose this song. This song helps me
Shivers.. truly amazing
Holy crap was that good!
listened to this video many times, never watching. just watched, what'a passionate delivery and so pretty
I love this song...and its many versions and videos. It's wonderful whether its studio or live. I think I've discovered a new fave band.
Music like this is so unique and amazing in every way i love how you guys give your music that classical kick to it!! it would be so awsome to see you guys live and i know one day i will you guys are for sure on of my favorite bands of all time!!! ROCK ON AIRBORNE

Got Airborne and Toxic rolled into one.
Never ever seen an acoustic set so Powerful ! Amazing..
I freaking love this song!
Itz been forever since I've found a band that blows me away song after song. I especially love this acoustic series. I think that is where A.T.E.'s strengths are most profound. Smokin'. You guys rock.
The room suddenly spinning
she walks up and asks how you are
so you can smell her perfume
you can see her lying naked in your arms
Listening to this song for months now and I don´t get tired. Everyone knows situations like this. Epic, huge, powerful song. Love it.
i love this song bc the lyrics make this great love story that you can totally imagine.and the mood is so chill and beautiful in the beginning then progresses into like a beautiful mad rush.this is a masterpiece!!
They deserve to have the world, they're amazing, but the best thing about them is that they don't need that, they keep doing their thing and they enjoy it, that's the important part. :)
Damn! What control by the cinematographer! One continuous shot. EXTREMELY impressed.
Very well done.
Why are they not more famous ... I love this band
Message to my younger self: yeah it’s still like this. A melancholy soundtrack to her smile.
And you're still sad.
