LYRICS
Looking back, you’re mistaken
Was it drought or euphoria
That could finally make me hopeful in the fault line?
Far from perfect illusion
Wait to walk up the island
Double knot into silence
I could never fall in line
I can feel the rain this time
It flows from the hope spring
Complacent in rare form
You said, “I’ll make you leave me.”
Is it all that I am?
And it’s you that I came for
Two hands are guarding my heart
I never climbed this far
And nobody waits for me but I know
Nobody takes from me what I grow
Secret Garden, disregard my heart
And nobody waits for me but I know
Nobody takes from me but I know
I know
Evidence just to please me
Lie awake, uninspired
It could all be so easy
If I could pull out the stitch
And it’s you that I came for
Two hands are guarding my heart
I never climbed this far
And nobody waits for me but I know
Nobody takes from me what I grow
Secret Garden, disregard my heart
And nobody waits for me but I know
Nobody takes from me but I know
Secret Garden, disregard my heart
Nobody waits for me
Nobody takes from me
Nobody waits for me
Nobody takes from me
Nobody waits for me (I know)
Nobody takes from me (I grow)
Nobody waits for me (I know)
Nobody takes from me (I grow)

#Spiritbox #SecretGarden #MusicVideo
Thanks for checking out Secret Garden!
HELL YEAH! GREAT STUFF HERE!
Love this so much! I played it for hours on repeat!
💙💙💙💙
Thank you for making awesome music!
Heard this on the radio and dam I loved it!!!!!
The lead singer said in an interview that she was afraid to release this song because some people might not like that it wasn't as heavy as their other songs. Whoever can't appreciate the versatility this band has displayed over the last year or so because they don't scream every verse is missing out and just doesn't get it. What a great and meaningful song from phenomenal band, I can't wait to see what comes next.
@@sarcasm4371 Because of the way they have been essentially releasing their entire album one song at a time. Some people hear the heavy stuff and automatically assume that's what to expect. Then they release a song like this which hurts their chance to sell the whole album.
Bro this song has every element. Sweet ass groove, amazing vocal melodies, a FONKY ass bass line, surreal outro and a great message about feeling unappreciated. It's just good man, if she was afraid of this then I NEED to know what else shes hiding
@@sarcasm4371 But constance is kinda heavy with the instrumental - this song is more melo, but as a big fan of Brand of Sacrifce or Slaugther to prevail : i dig this one like all the others. Spiritbox do no wrong.
Yet their heavy bangers are heavier than a lot of bands heh...I liked this song just fine heh
There’s levels of heavy, and this is heavy in a great way.
My 3 year old requests this song when we're laying down to sleep at bedtime. She asks for the "pretty lady song". She's got good taste already - I'm a happy dad 🤘.
This is probably the best thing I've read in a while. You guys rock!
😍😍 Love to hear that
That is so friggin awesome… hope to hear the same thing one day!!!
the "pretty lady song"... wow love it, so wholesome
I've tried hard to pretend that I like Courtney just because she's such a good vocalist....but let's be honest, she's absolutely gorgeous
Don’t ever be afraid to release something more melodic guys. This is beautiful.
Nobody hate Gojira for Low Lands. Just saying...
(in my opinion: one of their best)
Spiritbox fans have been truly getting TREATED for the last year and a half
All 5 music videos lol
@@jasonlovesmusicreacting882 It seems as if you were being sarcastic. 5 music videos are a pretty big deal especially given how they aren't as big as they should be (which is definitely changing!).
@@dovion Oh they're blowing tf up like crazy dude this early into their career. I was js I'm surprised there's been this many videos. I know some bands tend to do it though.
@@jasonlovesmusicreacting882 Oh ok. I thought you were saying it wasn't enough when you said "All 5" lol. Yeah, they are absolutely destroying it!
actually 20 songs since 2017
Banger after banger
Agreed
I love you Nik !!
This is not a banger in the slightest.
@@christophejergales7852 Get out.
@@Hockeyguy8541 I more than likely will once this band completely sells out to pop music. Evanescence anyone?
I adore people who enjoy this type of music.. I have never heard something like Spiritbox before.....
The audio engineer gets the crown for this. Like how did you get soft beautiful vocals to sound good over a super hard riff. Love this
If you like that sort of thing Caligula's Horse are amazing.
Thank god for compression.
The answer is compression
Its not just compression though, listen to like Rick Beato go over how chord progressions are absolutely ruined by over-compression. Especially extended range guitars.
@@andishawjfac cheers for the suggestion - secret garden definitely sounds inspired by their sound.
Holy Roller is rip your eyes out brutal. Constance and Secret Garden are cry your eyes out beautiful. This band has RANGE
Holy Roller wasnt even that brutal compared to what Mike and Courtney brought on the last IWABO album like "Erase It All"....that shit made Holy Roller sound like a children's song.
"Hail Mary" is such a forgotten Mathcore gem of an album
@@Posirep Well fortunately for you, they've said they've got something else heavier than Holy Roller on the album. I had seen IWABO before, but really didn't start listening until Boat Paddle and Hail Mary really sold me on Courtney. Not sure why, but people seem to forget about Belcarra. THAT is a heavy track and I'd honestly say it's the closest thing to IWABO they've made (minus the jazzy breakdowns).
Personally I'm enjoying the path that they're taking. The mathcore days of yore were fun, but in my advanced age, the chaos just makes me anxious lol I'll take a little "genericness" if it means I can listen to it at work without my brain falling apart.
@@Posirep Spiritbox is not IWABO. It's a different band and waiting something that Mike and Courtney did in IWABO is just stupid
@@ninjasownpirates i mean...im probably older than you so age rely doesnt mean much when it comes to chaoticness lol
@Jason Casmey okay dude, you've already called Courtney a blue haired SJW because they've made a few softer songs. get over it and find a different band if you don't like it.
Spiritbox is doing exactly what this genre so desperately needs. Not afraid to blend melodic/catchy vocals with contrasting heavy instrumentals. They’re making the music that THEY want to make, while pushing the metal genre forward. This is actual music, not just heavy for the sake of being heavy.
Destiny Potato / Sordid Pink have been doing this for years. They're a bit more humour influenced but not a comedy band. They feel like proto-Spiritbox to me.
Hahaha as if no one has done that before
@@DeadTempoPromotions well I never said they were the only ones doing this. But they are contributing
Yeeessss. This sector has been lacking ever since Secret and Whisper disbanded
The genre has been blending pop with metal for over a decade and it's a stale generic sound that Rise Record has produced hundreds of times now. This song is not remarkable in any way compared to the rest of Spiritbox's discography and has a formulaic and predictable composition.
I find myself always returning to spiritbox 💙
right
Courtney's style is beyond INCREDIBLE, Mike's riffs are LEGENDARY, Bill pulls you into the pocket with those GROOVES. Making Canada proud as usual Spiritbox.
Dont forgert Zev on the drums, hes extremely technical and accurate on all his parts 👌
They are all killer! Makes Vancouver Island proud to!!
Missed fantastic Zev on drums driving Spiritbox forward😊.
Spiritbox makes me feel some type of way. I could never explain it. Every new song is a new experience. Like opening the door to a world I never knew was there. This band is something extremely special and exceedingly rare.
I feel the exact same way.
Same here, I just can't describe each feeling. Each song makes me speechless.
Very well said. I completely agree and am so stoked to be on this journey. So glad I found this band.
Each song makes you THINK and feel something that is deep inside yourself, maybe even repressed and subconscious. It’s very special
yup
Spiritbox just doesn’t miss
Fancy seeing you here
Bro right?! They're too good. Courtney has come such a long way
Wow Blarg is also a fan of metal bands
@@justchill1617 uhh yeah? That's kind of his thing 😂😂
whats a pretty girl like you doing round these parts
Eternal Blue is just packed with timeless tracks!
It really is though.
It’s weird, I’m a deathcore listener through and through, but this is definitely my favorite Spiritbox song. It’s such a well rounded song, and that verse riff is perfect!
Good music is good music. I prefer metalcore/posthardcore, but if a pop, country, etc song strikes the right chord....
Deathcore listener here too. Spiritbox got me with Holy Roller and Silk in the Strings which are closer to post-deathcore (as I call it) than anything, and then this song I couldn’t stop listening to either. Great guitar work
I’d think you’d like the newest EPs too. They are on fire imo
Ive never listened to Spiritbox until this popped up earlier. I was playing a game with music going in the background and literally stopped what I was doing like WHAT IS THIS?!?! Then immediately checked out some other songs as well. Spiritbox most definitely gained a fan today.
Welcome
welcome to the club sir
We welcome you to the 2020's new God and it's kingdom.
mara effect part 1, aphids, the beauty of suffering, blessed be, circle with me, constance and rule of nines 👍🏻
@@iwhxiwbdiqbxjdb every song I came to suggest lmao.
B̶a̶s̶s̶i̶s̶t̶ Guitarist really said 👋✋🤞👌🤌🖐🤚
That is Mike on the guitar...
Bill actually just held the rhythm, but did it well.
I think that's the guitarist on the verse. I may be wrong but if that's the bassist then there's no way he's gunna be able to play that live since there's 2 separate bass tracks there.
@@Eric-tp4de I think he's talking about the bass, not about "the Tosin Abasi part". You actually can hear it really good on the mix.
@Aicantar Of Shimmerene that bass is just sexy. I'd kill to be able to play it. But first I gotta learn to play lol
@Aicantar Of Shimmerene that's not bass, that's the guitar
Im a Deathcore guy, but this one made my cry, is like the inner emotion of anyone who is not priority in any situation. Hits too hard...
She’s talking about how she could never find love these lyrics perfect
Agreed
Does anyone else's insides dissolve whenever listing to their music.. They hit my numbness right in the feels..
Brings a whole new meaning to her last name, Laplante.
That's smooth
Aka the French plant
this hit different
@@liamnissanS2K haha
Hear me out spiritbox and pierce the veil
THIS 👏🏻 BAND 👏🏼 DOES 👏🏽 NOT 👏🏾 MISS 👏🏿
Your hands change colors every time you clap? Fucking chameleon.
@@Jarlaxle_Baenre Dont exclude anyone if you clap xDDD
Courtney LaPlante in her secret LaGarden.
respect
their guitar work is great part of their sound too, i mean i love courtney but i don't think they would be as great without each other
@diascrive wat
So ethereal, the fact that she can do this, holy roller & “beauty in suffering”, “ blessed be” is a testament to one of the best kinds of talent DUALITY. I haven’t been this obsessed with a band, to combine real genuine metal and pop rock together THIS beautifully deserves lots an lots of recognition. Every song takes my breath away. And it’s the only of it’s kind. Basic bitches compare, real music listeners know when something is special.
I agree man! You might like Ice Nine Kills as well, if you're looking for more diverse sounding metal bands.
Man I will never forget the day when I click on Blessed Be By Spiritbox. That's when I became a fan!
Sama. Rule of Nines
@Anon X it doesnt matter to me. The band still has the same sound and put out the same vibes as always. This is definitely one of the softest songs on the album from what they're saying
@Anon X this sounds nothing like mainstream pop or a poppy sound.
I was listening to a random heavy playlist on Spotify and they were like the 3rd band that played, and Holy Roller came on. I immediately started listening to everything they had and legit listened to nothing but Spiritbox for the next month and a half haha.
@Anon X lol as if they were death metal band before, they are still the same and actually they are wayyyy better with their latest releases, everyone is screaming these days, what they are doing now is difficult to do and this is why we are happy
It’s so wonderful to see a new rock band really pushing the envelope and blowing up at the same time. We need this. 👍🤘
What envelope are they pushing? It's mediocre djent with some basic female vocals.
@@dickfitzennwell6639 it's not djent. They're not that new. Courtney was from IWABO.
They're good and they probably have one of the better female vocalists but lets be real, they're not pushing any envelopes
@@masso392 yes they are. They're a metal band making some actual good songs and not just riff salad.
@Rock Feed I get what you are saying man, they are talented and definitely write some great songs. Regardless of everyone else’s opinions we definitely still need this :)
We went from "Could a Spiritbox vid ever reach 1 million views" to "Could a Spiritbox vid reach 1 million views in a week."
They are heads and shoulders above damn near everyone else.
Its one of the best bands I've listened to this year. Without a doubt
Vancouver Island producing some amazing bands. Unleash The Archers, and Spiritbox... damn!!
In my Top 5 of Spiritbox songs, this song is just so serene and calming and courtney kills this song vocally that chorus just takes over
How they make technical songs like this sound so simple and digestible is just wonderful. It's never "too much".
@Jason Casmey you're trying way too hard. It's so cringey
@Jason Casmey lol! Ok boi, now you can go.
@Jason Casmey Your underneath almost every comment I've seen on this video. Go outside, edgelord
@Jason Casmey lmao... can't wait to see your cover. Easy...smfh. Sincerely, a guitar player.
@Jason Casmey Okay then Jason, let’s please hear any of your music that you’ve created yourself. Please show us simpletons what the true meaning of music is. We will be here waiting.
THIS IS LITERALLY COTTAGECORE

@Jason Casmey oh look another human who's looking for attention... didn't you're parents not love you?
One million views on a week, this band has grown so much
Honestly, I thought I’d become completely disinterested in metal core and deathcore, but this album is just positively enchanting.
1st listen: "These harmonies are just so beautiful"
2nd Listen: "My eyes are leaking and I cannot stop it" 😭
Yeah I really don’t know how they do that
I listened to this and a tear actually came to my eye im not gonna lie
Same. I don't know why - I haven't read the lyrics yet - but I have a feeling this is Constance-level emotional.
@Anon X One emotionally constipated commenter spotted - you.
I didn’t get the meaning of the video though
riserecords UA-cam channel: "It's 9 o'clock, guess I'll release that new Spiritbox song."
I was about to go to bed.
Same!!
Gettling lucky here, I woke up to it.
Now only if we could get that Eidola album...
Ah yes, true metalheads sleep at 9 xD
@@harrisnasir5753 Metalheads with a mortgage and kids do.
From now on, our favourite song from you guys. Really love it 💜
Ankor so good to see you here! You are all very talented musicians as well!!
No break down or heavy stuff :/
@@matteomancini7069 Thank you! 🥰
Me gusta canción secret garden si viene paraíso
@Gabriel B Orbit culture,unleash the archers and more. Im just saying that this song is not as heavy as other songs because its lacking a breakdown which i love and her growls which i love too...
This is the first song in my life that has ever made me head-bang and cry at the same time.
The way this song drops into the groove is just 👌
That was the moment I hit LIKE!
@@birko985 1:42
First time I've ever heard this band, sounds great! I love singers who actually sing
Hot damn you're right.. that's a stone cold groove.
@@kamikazekrush3758 look up "Circle with me" from them!
I say it on every new song they drop, but Spiritbox is NOT CAPABLE OF MAKING A BAD SONG!
@Jason Casmey cap
@Jason Casmey this is arguably their best song in terms of songwriting those bass parts are beautiful as heck👌
@Jason Casmey This is one of their best songs. But do you. lol
@Jason Casmey there’s always at least okie guy like you 😭😭
Not heavy doesn’t make it not good. Go somewhere else, bub
@Jason Casmey Just because a song isn't heavy doesn't make it bad. Grow up a little.
Man y’all don’t realize how much this song means to me. I’m facing jail time in the pit of my life struggling with alcoholism and 4 minutes of getting my brain off of everything is beyond words. Bravo, spiritbox. Wish you weren’t touring in Europe I would come to one of your shows.
I’m no innocent person myself, but let tell you about the hook in the bottom of each bottle… cut the line while you still can and make the best life for yourself, despite the circumstances. You are worth it, and many people would love to see you succeed. Deep down, even if you feel like you don’t think it matters over the booze and BS, you want to live a happy and fulfilling life and speak to others to guide them and inspire them. Stay strong my friend, may you find the peace and the healing to be your best self. Great taste in music btw! 🤘
Just had a surreal experience where I heard this on the local radio station in Charlottesville, VA. I generally listen to this station for the (mostly) jazz and obscure stuff they normally play that's fairly kid friendly. Never in a million years would have thought I'd hear Spiritbox on there!
"And nobody waits for me but I know nobody takes from me what I grow." Wow, fav lines so far. ♡
Please don't ever be afraid to release anything melodic. I absolutely love the style you guys have and it is 100% yours. Please be proud to know that you have made song after song that just hits home perfectly. Thank you for being you.
So talented love their variety of styles, from djent to heavy banger to this.
If you want more of their melodic songs, I will never stop recommending their older songs Perennial, Trust Fall, Everything's Eventual, and the Mara Effect (the last one is obvious tho)
The melodic stuff from them is my favorite. I love Courtney's voice
Isnt most their stuff melodic?
@@harrydresden4661 yes, but I was saying like, atmospheric in a way, it's just the ones that stand out to me personally I guess it wasn't specific enough ahah
This is a great example of how Pop and Metal can fuse together so well. Awesome song 🔥
I literally heard this band for the first time today, I haven't found a bad song yet. Absolutely amazing
Yeah they're entire catalog is phenomenal.
Literally same and just found them today ! ❤
i got oddly emotional from this. the scenes with the old woman brushing the girls hair made me miss my grandma so much.
Same
try constance then
@@PROJECT_XENON I love that song. It came out 6 days before my grandma passed away. Didn't get to say my goodbye to her because of covid. It hits home.
The bass guitar in this is **chefs kiss**. Loving it.
Interesting thing is, it's not bass. That's Mike on the lowest guitar string. :)
I hate to do this to you but that’s the guitar.
@@manasyadav1993 you just ruined one human life. You bastard
@@Dubbel12 at least it was the truth that set her free. And yes I did assume her gender.
@@Dubbel12 well, let me un-ruin it: Opeth - To Bid You Farewell.
Completely different genre, but possibly the best and most beautiful bass ever played in metal.

Dude!!! The back and forth between the bass and guitar play in the verse tho!
"Holy Roller sits in the garden we fled
Blood into wine, take my body instead"
Think about that with the song title and the last scene
"shocked pickachu face"
Blew my mind
I do believe that's why they chose to put holy roller on the album, and I'm here for it
Ooooh shiiiit this person is onto something
Oh no no, he has a point!
Them feels. Now, all I need is a Nik Nocturnal reaction and a João Medeiros cover.
Had the exact same thought haha
@@slandadrums And eagerly waiting for the album 🔥
Lol Joao probably finished his cover of this before the band even wrote it. He's so fast. 😂

NikNok Reviews 🎶
That bass line 🥴
Words cannot properly express how much Spiritbox means to me. They are my solace when life becomes unbearable.
Dude same
WE FREAKING LOVE SPIRITBOX!
The ambience in this is absolutely gorgeous.
I've been listening to metal for a large portion of my life, but I've never had a "favorite" band above any others until Spiritbox. Sure, I had a handful of bands that I listened to more than others, but none of them have ever actually constituted as my favorite.
Courtney's vocals and lyricisms do something so positive to my brain. I don't think I've ever truly felt music in the same way that I do when she's got the mic. It's not even that I necessarily relate to any of her lyrical content, she just has a way of pulling me into the vibe in a way smoother and more comfortable way than anyone else I've listened to.
Secret Garden in particular mellows me out in an almost euphoric way that I don't think I can accurately explain. (Trying too hard to explain how music makes you feel is a great way to ruin it, as well. So I won't bother.)
From start to finish, Secret Garden is what I personally would call the perfect metal song. It's the perfect blend of what it needs to be, and is so relaxing yet empowering to listen to. It's truly set a standard for me vocally, lyrically and instrumentally that I think will be *very* difficult to be replicated or even surpassed by another song.
I'm telling y'all, there's something magical about this one...
While I do love the stupid heavy and chaotic shit that Lorna Shore and various other Deathcore bands are putting out nowadays: when I just wanna chill out and fully escape the world: Spiritbox is my choice.
If you like this what about within temptation? Sharon Den Adel is amazing!
Hell yes.. I've been listening to loath on and off for a year, and just found spiritbox this evening.
I really want to love Loathe, but this really resonates.
Drama, melody, mood and brute strength.
Very cool.
Well said respect
I can't get over how much the end makes me tear up, such a beautiful song.
I dunno what emotion I'm felling with this song , but it chokes me up. Spiritbox always tugging on some emotional string somewhere. Absolutely love the song.
It’s because Courtney puts her soul into what she sings and feels every word. They wrote this before Holy Roller and a lot of other tracks but kept it back.
Nik will definitely notice that bass.
Is it bass or a deep clear tone guitar? Sounds like Tosin’s guitar and riffs!
Hard to miss that shit its fucking DOPE
@@rojobandito629 yeah its guitar
Nah this is mike clean tone
Yep clean tone. Abasi or Plini tone I believe.
Listened to the premier and wasn't sure how I felt about this track but god damn this shit grows on you. Great song.
This is my life anthem right now, and quite possibly the best release of 2021. Thank you Spiritbox for making amazing music.
I think this song is about what others think of us, and how they try to define us by our past.
And the chorus is a message of strength. 'Nobody takes from me what I grow' IE regardless of what people on the outside think, if you are moving forward NO ONE can take that away from you.
Yall, just, wow. Thank you Spiritbox for taking complex emotion and distilling it into an absolute masterpiece 👏
Blue is definitely Courtney's color! 💙
Yes, album's name Eternal Blue makes sense now lol
I'm imagining how a collab with Courtney and Devin Townsend would be like
Damn...
The whole band is incredibly talented. And whomever mixed this album deserves so much praise and a raise.
Is nobody going to talk about how Courtney literally turned into a plant
It was right in front of our faces all along: Courtney LaPLANTe
I really loved that part
@@DyalToen I lolled pretty hard at that.
Pretty sure this vid is inspired by The Fountain if anyone remembers that movie.
@@PhilWurth25 yup. Very underrated movie!
Instrumentally reminds me of Electric Cross 🤘 love it
Glad someone else hears it too 🤙🏼🤘🏼
This Band is just Amazing. Not enough words to describe how they are true musical geniuses. The tone, the vocals, the lyrics, the breakdowns. Just God Damn Incredible!
God I love the ending of this song. That riff hits and her vocals with it match perfectly
Spiritbox captured my interest like no other band has in a decade
They're about to own the 20s. Blessed Be to Spiritbox 🙌🏼
What a beautiful and haunting song. I just started getting into this band and let me tell you, Courtney is very magnetic spiritually. She has a strong magnetic pull. Oh and I absolutely love her voice
I can't remember the last time I've been more excited for a debut album this band is absolutely incredible
A Spiritbox song by itself is beautiful, but once it has a music video it’s a work of art. You guys are owning 2021 and I can not wait for the album!
This song make me feel a nostalgia that i never lived
"In speaking of this desire for our own far off country, which we find in ourselves even now, I feel a certain shyness. I am almost committing an indecency. I am trying to rip open the inconsolable secret in each one of you-the secret which hurts so much that you take your revenge on it by calling it names like Nostalgia and Romanticism and Adolescence; the secret also which pierces with such sweetness that when, in very intimate conversation, the mention of it becomes imminent, we grow awkward and affect to laugh at ourselves; the secret we cannot hide and cannot tell, though we desire to do both. We cannot tell it because it is a desire for something that has never actually appeared in our experience. We cannot hide it because our experience is constantly suggesting it, and we betray ourselves like lovers at the mention of a name. Our commonest expedient is to call it beauty and behave as if that had settled the matter. Wordsworth’s expedient was to identify it with certain moments in his own past. But all this is a cheat. If Wordsworth had gone back to those moments in the past, he would not have found the thing itself, but only the reminder of it; what he remembered would turn out to be itself a remembering. The books or the music in which we thought the beauty was located will betray us if we trust to them; it was not in them, it only came through them, and what came through them was longing. These things-the beauty, the memory of our own past-are good images of what we really desire; but if they are mistaken for the thing itself they turn into dumb idols, breaking the hearts of their worshipers. For they are not the thing itself; they are only the scent of a flower we have not found, the echo of a tune we have not heard, news from a country we have never yet visited."
C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory
That fuckin groove behind the verse. Damn they know to write some quality jams.
I just discovered spiritbox and this is one of my favorite songs, I can't wait to see their performance in houston 😍 💗
It’s not 5 videos, it’s been 20 songs since 2017. This band doesn’t miss. Since the beauty of Suffering to Secret Garden amazing music.
This band has become easily in my all time top 5 bands. They bring every emotion you can think of. Courtney if you see this this song is beautiful and we’re so glad you released it to us to enjoy🥰
This is such a badass record. This video is so dope. Courtney is shown as a little girl, an adolescent, an adult, and an old woman. Mind blown
This is truly amazing. It has it all. Emotion, tastefulness, technicality, feel, flow, heaviness, production, composition.. I could go on. I absolutely love this.. and I don't gush like that very often. A true masterpiece. Bravo Spiritbox. I keep listening to it over and over. Thank you.
Another masterpiece.
This was my" Quarantine" band and now I'm a fan for life. Can't wait to get the album!!!
Secret Garden, Constance and Perennial are one of the most beautiful songs i ever heard.
What about Trust Fall tho
@@summeronio9751 it comes right after :p
She's a God with her voice ranges!
They are too close to Diamante. Girl have same blue hair color like in Diamante.
@@eleonora1608diamante could never come close to this woman's vocal talent
Excuse me? More Spiritbox? YES PLEASE! 😀
Yeah! The song is actually out already! Today is the video
I havent even gotten into the lyrics for this and still just got emotional on the music/melody. I love the range of styles in the songs. this is like the 4th or 5th song ive heard on this cd and it already has so much contrast. cant wait to listen to the whole thing.
Their ability to draw you in with their music and melodies is one of the strengths of this band.
@Anon X you sound like a real tough guy.
@Anon X got me man. being able to feel emotion is clearly not a thing men can do without being a panzy. you nailed it.
I find myself relating to this song more & more every time I listen to it.
This song has been on repeat for a good while 🔥🔥🤘🤘
And they have done it again. Another masterpiece. And as always: the video takes the song to another level of feelings and emotions. It complements the song so well. I love it! Eternal Blue will be the album of the year, no doubt. Spiritbox, you create pure art!
I can't stop listening to it, this song arouses in me so many sometimes conflicting emotions that my being is clamoring to hear it over and over to bring out what my heart cannot explicitly say.
Same here...it's like Courtney can express human emotion on a deeper level than the rest of us can put words to
Yeah, so this hit different. I love it.
When I ask my 9 year old daughter what she wants to jam and she tells me Secret Garden... only tears of joy
I can’t get over that clean guitar riff, it’s insane
Stuck in my head all day!
Her voice is beautiful and haunting 😍
This feels fresh, glad it popped up on Spotify
That BASS 😍😍😍
This song speaks directly to my heart strings. Playing it on repeat. The range of this band is perfection.
At this point it's not even funny anymore how good EVERY ONE OF YOUR SONGS is and how mind-blowing the art direction in every music video is. We need this tour, we need to see you guys live yesterday!
While I am quite new to listening to Spiritbox, I have to say the full clean vocals throughout of this song is kind of refreshing given the style of genre. I hope they aren't too afraid to create more tracks like this in the future.
Sing from the heart and the song speaks for itself. Powerful.
