Lyrics:
Regrets collect like old friends
Here to relive your darkest moments
I can see no way, I can see no way
And all of the ghouls come out to play
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
But I like to keep some things to myself
I like to keep my issues drawn
It's always darkest before the dawn
And I've been a fool and I've been blind
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
I'm always dragging that horse around
Our love is pastured, such a mournful sound
Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
So I like to keep my issues drawn
But it's always darkest before the dawn
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh whoa
And I am done with my graceless heart
So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
'Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
It's always darkest before the dawn
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh whoa
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
And given half the chance would I take any of it back
It's a fine romance but it's left me so undone
It's always darkest before the dawn
Oh whoa, oh whoa...
And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road
And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
It's a shot in the dark aimed right at my throat
'Cause looking for heaven, found the devil in me
Looking for heaven, found the devil in me
Well what the hell I'm gonna let it happen to me, yeah
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh whoa
dont know why AA doesnt have him sing more on their albums. Danny has crazy out-of-this-world vocal talent but Ben is somethin special too. and we all know he writes all the songs. he should write himself more parts
He has such a unique and rough voice. I love it.
Vocal production is strong with this one
I wish Ben Bruce would make a solo album
me too
me too afrer listening Gone by Asking Alexandria
He is amazing. I like his parts from AA songs, but solo is even better!!
I listen the song in he is featured and agree they sound amazing.
When I fist found this,I listened to it on repeat for 5 hours straight. Yes I still love it.
samee
"When I fist found this"
Now that sounds painful. haha just kidding
4 years later, do you still love this?
@@RVxCobra I do.
AA will never be the same without you ben, thank you for the wonderful journey.
Ben Bruce is my hero, idol, and inspiration to why I picked up the guitar. Ben Bruce really carries this band on his shoulders, he's simply amazing!! I have no words man this guy has come a long way i got nothing but respect for him Brucenation forever
dude..................... this voice.
Oh my holy shit. This gave me goosebumps
Same
This is really nice. It's beautiful, and sounds amazing. I love it. Ben you sound beautiful..
So stoked to hear Ben take a frontal role! His voice is excellent! Probably the last song I would expect him to cover but wow! So impressed!
The early Asking Alexandria was just him on vocals.
jezuz4life159 Really?
Edwin Salome No, James Murray was the vocalist in the Dubai era Asking Alexandria, he's also the one speaking in "dedication".
This is an amazing cover!!! Ben did an awesome job on this!!!! His voice sounds really good and amazing!!! He should sing more on the AA albums!!!
good thing Ben is releasing a Solo Album at the end of this year :D i personally cannot wait for it to be released.
@@CanadianRhythm and still waiting 😔
Ben has the voice of an angel.
@Johnny Martinez someone is jealous because they can't sing lmao
had the biggest crush on Ben Bruce in my teens.
I have a massive crash on him too :)
i mean i had back then. not any more of course.
+Tgh P ahaha I get that. tbh. I find to many band people hot ahaha
+Tgh P I have still :x I thaught he's not my crush anymore, but than I saw AA live and.... I cryed so I guess I'm still into him :D for 5 or 6 years now :D
+321Lilith123 me too.... I thought I was over it until I saw him a few weeks ago and got weak in the knees. That 'crush' went nowhereeeeee haha
Ben was hiding his his voice behind his guitars!! He sounds PRETTY DAMN GOOD 😍❤👏
its let me cry!.
i love ben bruce he is mine hero,after my lil brother died and ben look like him!,
I always cry when i see ben or hear his voice!
Ben is so underrated
Woah. I actually love this.
Anybody still waiting for his solo album? I'm not trying to sound greedy, but he said back in the beginning of 2015 that it would be released sometime that year. Now its been over year and he still hasn't released. My guess is that he either forgot because of the new AA album getting in the way or he that hasn't had time to release and is planning to release later this year. I hope so that he does.
What are you people talking about? This is fucking amazing.
"take a nap, take a nap. take a nap take a nap, oooh woaah"
Chris Sauter TAKE A GODDAMN NAP!
Lisse Hooyberghs I know, I thought of it and I can't not hear it xD
wtf no at all lol
recklentless can't unhear it, thanks haha. Reminds me of that time someone commented "THIS. IS. SANDPIT TURTLE" on Shadow Moses... Now that's all I can hear haha
+Mélanie My forever favourite misheard lyric is "Pikachu's a virgin" in Psychosocial by Slipknot
LikeDeadChannelMusic I met him in person at Carolina Rebellion in NC several years ago...... He's seriously like 5 foot tall
Ben Bruce is just amazing
RIGHT!!!
amazing he should do more vocals in AA maybe even some lead parts ?
Ben?? Holy shit!
Bro Ben Bruce is amazing
If this band turned into a non screaming band and Ben was front man, I wouldn't even care. His singing is seriously so good.
es perfecto!!!!! Ben lo hiciste muy bien.... me encanto esta canción
1:59-3:04
Ben is freaking awesome n hes halarious in his interviews
Ben Bruce, youre the way Im dreamming.
Oh my gosh his voice is so beautiful!
WE NEED BEN FOR LEAD SINGER OF ASKING ALEXANDRIA!
no,that would change the whole sound of the band.
Ben has a soft voice.
Go order a KidsBop album or something.
i love Ben ♥
now that Danny left i feel Ben will have a bigger impact vocally in the band even if Denis is the new screamer i feel we will be hearing much more of Ben
he is an amazing singer, we will more than likely be hearing a lot more from him ;)
Roonie Roodke Who's Dennis lmao
old vocalist for Make Me Famous he is rumored to be the new vocalist
Roonie Roodke lol
I'm not familiar with the band. How many voices are singing here? I feel like I can hear up to 4
"YIIEEEEEETZ ALWAYS DARKEST BEFORE THE DAAAAWN."
Like if bens Instagram post brought you here :) amazing fucking song Ben. Can't wait for the solo album mate.
***** Actually you can, that's what the thumbs up means bro. OHHHHH Knowledge.
lostangels224 there's no thumbs up option on mine, I think it doesn't have it on mobile devices Idk #themoreYOUknow
Deanna Jones ***** lostangels224 intelligence overload #LOL
Deanna Jones Long press > +1 comment. Boom.
i really love ben bruce
I look forward to buying this album when it comes out in stores
Don't get me wrong, Ben has improved a lot, obviously he's been taking professional lessons. But you're dumb if you think this is how his voice sounds raw. There is so much editing done to his voice. That being said he did a solid job.
me encanta tu voz ben, cantas hermoso.
This is really good. I've never heard the original, but his vocals are absolutely lovely, at least in studio.
Why am I just now seeing this!? He's so freaking good!
I like this a lot better. I'd listen to his solo music more than AA.
I prefer this a lot more. I love it!
Phillip Qin Jamie Doupe We all adore Danny! However, he has abused his voice. the first album was great! his singing was awesome! so was his screaming! Even live it was pretty good. the second album was good too, different but good! When he'd perform live he was alright. I saw them twice during the Reckless album and he just yelled and sang because the song calls for him too sing. So it wasn't a very good performance. Now they're trying to do this rock n roll thing. The new album is not my forte not into it. However, Danny was a good screamer. Ben is playing and has to do his second singing with no breath that's why its not so great live other wise with this style and setting I think it'll be beautiful! But Danny has sort of lost it. I'm sorry to admit it.
Ben isn't shit live you just have high expectations or live somewhere that has bad sound people and equipment. In all live shows I've seen of them and the ones I been to he's sang fine to me and quite audible, h8r! Jks some people have bad days but whatever
Ben sings so good :D
*And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road
And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
It's a shot in the dark aimed right at my throat
'Cause looking for heaven, found the devil in me
Looking for heaven, found the devil in me
Well what the hell I'm gonna let it happen to me, yeah*
It's funny how Ben acts like some rock star while in Asking Alexandria but then he does this type of thing and he's the cutest little shit I'm done with my life.
I love this! It's so great. I love the up-beat rhythm. Ben Bruce - you're amazing ❤❤
_Oh my fuck this is amazing.... fucking beautiful this is my fifth favourite song ever and.... just i wish Ben would make more songs like this and some lead parts because he is like Chris Motionless and Klayton are all gods with unnaturally good vocals_
Gone by Asking Alexandria is completely Ben Bruce singing
Keith McLean-Cortes i know the new album's awesome but nothing they will ever do will beat From Death To Destiny my second favourite album of all time seconded only to Celldweller's End Of An Empire and beating Morbid Angels Altars Of Madness.
He did not write this song...
2keyzme i don't really care.
BIG MOMMA are ur 3 fav bands AA, miw and celldweller too??
He should have became frontman of Asking Alexandria after Danny left.
Destiny Duncan or lead vocalist/guitarist
+Nathan Tragic
definitely not lead vocalist,he seems happy with his current role in the band
+Nathan Tragic

No just no. i like the screaming in asking so stfu
Mickey Grandia It was literally my opinion. No one needs to shut up, because you yourself just gave an opinion.
I cannot wait until the solo album. I LOVE this and him. His voice is so beautiful!
I love his voice, he has such an amazing vocal range
New lead singer. Now that Danny left??
I seriously hope so
That would be perfect lots of love to We Are Harlot though AA won't be the same with out Danny
Rumors say it's gonna be Denis Shaforostov from make me famous.
/watch?v=LnfXk_axE5k
Yea i saw dat yesterday & also something abt danny coming bakk 2 AA sooner or later
Ben Bruce actually used to be the original lead singer before Danny joined he's just taking back the position.
Chicken out chicken out whooa
Chicken out chicken out whooa
😜😁
Incredible! Ben is amazing
To answer all the controversy on here. Yes ben is using autotune on his voice, this song is lower than he normally sings an cannot sing this low without help. But he can in fact actually sing. Hence why in his new band he is the singer
There's an easier way to deal with singing a song that's too low for your voice. Either change key up a semitone or two, or train your voice so you can hit the lower notes. Seriously, autotune is just lazy.
This is true but ben hasnt been trained an until recently wasnt anything more than just a backing vocalist. So to be fair he did his job well. But I agree autotune is lazy, but he doesnt use as much on his someone somewhere acoustic which he does very well on
How is this song too low for his voice? I'm not sure you know how voices work amongst genders. Female registers are usually if not always higher than males becuase of the structure of their throat. Males are lower. A female sings this song and if you've actually heard the original you would know that some of the notes she's hitting are high (using her head voice/ falsetto). If Ben's range was higher than hers he could easily hit these notes seeing as Florence doesn't even sing that low when she's going into her lower register. Ben himself doesn't actually have a huge range himself (pretty standard range for males) so no you're wrong. He's using autotune because he can't actually hit the notes he's trying to hit that well. Being the singer in a band doesn't mean youre actually good at (i.e. see every bad live vocalist that has been in this scene). That being said I liked the cover kept it true to the original (which is a beautiful song) and added some balls with his rough notes.
his new band?
xM4XvPA1Nx He's doing a side solo project with "easy listening rock" (his words). He's not leaving AA. Danny Worsnop is also doing a side project called Harlot.
Who needs Danny? This is amazing ♥♥♥
Dalia Ellesar No need danny, but need denis shaforostov :v
I feel like I'm the only one that wants Danny back....
.....
Holly Mennell Most of AA fans want Danny back. Denis has powerful voice but not enough as Danny. I still miss him. Only thing that we can do is listen his songs...
Holly Mennell my daughter does big time
Matt Gooch oh good!! :D tell her she really isn't the only one :3
Ben Bruce is so talented, his voice is amazing
Love his voice, his songs, him, and AA ❤️
I hate Asking Alexandria and am not really too fond of Ben, but this is a damn good cover, as well as all of the other bands.
Se vc não curte ou detesta fique pra sí mesmo, não critique então respeite se você realmente gosta de ter respeito respeite os gostos dos outros e eu sou fã do Asking alexandria :)
ytaisa silva He was saying this was good?
its taken me 2 years to realise that Ben isnt on the album cover... 😂
fuck, you're right
You stupid dumbfuck
I love the dirt in his voice! It just sounds so good!
This is simply spectacular!!!
Ben tell Danny to let you sing more
If he wanted to,he would considering he started the band
Both ben and danny are working on seprate solo projects so he's gonna do all the singing then
Ben should take over vocals when Danny leave. KEEP ASKING ALEXANDRIA ALIVE!!! :D
O.o im pretty sure danny's not leaving any time soon
Erm Danny is way better at singing.
They should both sing
Monika Rycyk Danny is losing his voice more and more each day.
The fact that he tore his vocal cord way back and didnt rest up like he should, and the outcome of the last album, plus his other tow side projects is almost enoygh for anyone to assume that if he were to leave, that Ben would need to step up.
Mark Hopkins well duh. But since the accident, not really...
Loving this!!
Very impressed with Bens vocals. Truly very talented
you're all freaking out about 'auto tune' and half of you are just using it as an insult because the guy's in Asking Alexandria... every band uses some form of 'autotune' for their studio albums.
Plenty of bands don't use autotune.
However, there are plenty that do. I mean I love Periphery but their first album was totally raped with autotune and pitch correction. If you could name me a few modern day bands that don't use autotune I'd like to take a listen though!
Paul Irwin Periphery's 2nd album has zero autotune, so I guess you can start there.
Nah man, the main vocals don't have any autotune, even Misha said the backing vocals had some pitch correction in them.
Paul Irwin I meant the main vocals. Regardless there are plenty of modern metal band (and rock bands) who don't use autotune or whose autotune use is not discernible - like Symphony X, Kamelot, Seventh Wonder, TesseracT (I read somewhere that Altered State doesn't have autotune, in which case it's a pretty superb example of soaring modern clean vocals), Opeth (even though the Opeth clean style of vocals is pretty different from the other artists mentioned, Heritage has a very old-school production that definitely doesn't have modern tricks like autotune), Lost Horizon (the vocal performance on the song "Highlander" is one of the craziest things I've ever heard)... long story short, there are plenty of bands who don't use autotune or, if they do, its use is so negligible that it would be just fine without it. The same cannot be said of most of AA's clean performances.
This is fkin beautiful
He has such an amazing voice I love Ben more than life 🎧💙
literally perfection
That was fucking amazing!
❤❤❤❤eu amoooo essa banda QUEM É BR COMENTA AKI!!
Ahhh ben your voice always makes me so happy... I've preordered the album just for this song the day it came out...can't really wait any longer for it. I'm soooo excited, if want to have this song now. You're perfection tbh. ♥️💕👌💋
dam. does ben still do music? dam. instant platinum on a new album solo. great sound
Chicken out Chicken out! Chicken out Chicken out! Oh woah!
Damn. You can really hear the melodyne.
This is amazing. Just another reason to love Ben!
His voice is sooooo amazing!
He is such a good singer and I love the lyrics they are so strong 😍 Ben you are such a good singer omg ❤ big thanks to UA-cam who added this video in my recommend videos. I fucking love this song 😍❤
As long as you know they aren't his lyrics 😂
MrConwee8182 I know that those aren't his lyrics. I just love the whole song & lyrics. And of course his voice.
And as long as you can hear the damn autotune 😂
2keyzme shut the fuck up!! Ben is an amazing singer
+Eva Ternik (Falling In Reverse) cool, enjoy then...
Sounds like the ice king xD
IM NOT THE ONLY ONE. Adventure Time should seriously invite Ben to do an episode where there is a musical and he voices the Ice kings for the songs, it would be so epic.
I am so glad you noticed too, I felt insane everyone else didn't hear it but I really do omg and YES OMFG IT WOULD LEGIT WORK
My lullaby ♥
This is gorgeous, really, really like it.
Holy Shit I feel like a noob for not knowing about this !!!
Me too
If you think Danny uses a shit-ton of autotune, then listen to The Death Of Me (Rock Mix) and listen to the acoustic version... Boom..
Its the guitarist not danny who's singing and just because a band uses more auto tune then another doesn't make it better
LAZORIZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ I know this is Ben... It says Ben Bruce of AA... But people were saying Danny used a shit-ton of autotune when he doesn't..
ARISTOPHANES εїз Obviously you don't know the difference between autotune and pitch correction.
Cory May No, I don't. Mind being less of a dick about it and explaining it to me?
ARISTOPHANES εїз My apologies dude, pitch correction is either other autotune like programs that "autotune" it or actually editing the pitch of the notes themselves, everyone does it, but it sounds a lot more natural. Also, disregard the run-on sentence.
holy shit Ben is amazing I wish he sang more with asking alexandria
This is so good its been years since I've listened to this ❤
ben ubiera sido el nuevo cantante de asking alexandria
Si, el hubiera sido el ideal para tomar el lugar de danny
si man esque lastima ahi que no fue ben porque en los coros ben tiene buena voz y ubiera sido mas de adrelalina que ubiera sido el cantante el vocalista y guitarrista otro nivel
+Boris Damian si lose, el hubiera sido perfecto
saaapeee
+Boris Damian No habría sido lo mismo ._. Ben no tiene el mismo estilo de voz que tiene que tener AA
Why is he in Asking Alexandria again?
I didn't think he left, I thought he was just making a solo album.
TheSwamp UF Why IS he... No one said he left..
Gotcha
Wasn't he always there?
Tu Papi Es Feo yes, he was
I need more of this
I love this song! Ben has an amazing voice.
Best than original version
Not at all, sorry..
Gustavo Rinaldi i dont like the original version of florence and manchines
Is it just me or do i hear auto tune?
its not auto tuned its got a mix over it to give his voice the "tang/accent" that the singer has so that it sounds similar to the original but not the same plus just adds to the overall song
Kind off, its definitely over-edited
i think its an edited acho but still... this is super good i looooove it
All bands use Autotune... AA, MMMF, Issues, Woe, Is me, ect. All producers use it, but the best use it in such a way that you can't tell.
Jamie Phillips I disagree with that.
omfg!!!!! his voice is so beautiful
this is soooo good!
AA don't gotta look far for a new singer.
some one mix this with the mgk version!!!
Oh my god! I love it♥
This is actually so beautiful!!!
Why won't he the one who be the frontman ?
+Matthew Olson Do you have the interview link?
***** okay,thanks
