I liked BB much better when he was with these members of his band, it's a shame they betrayed him, I think he was at his best during his time with his original line-up.
Breaking Benjamin is my favorite band, has been since 2013. This is amazing, he sounds great even though he is sick. He said nobody knows what is medical condition is. He even said in a video if it weren't for his wife, his son, and his amazing fans that probably would have killed himself from the pain. Always remember that, he is sick and is giving his all every single show. JUST FOR US BECAUSE THATS HOW MUCH HE CARES. And happy birthday Benjamin Burnley:)
Wow that's Amazing!! 💜I love this thanks for sharing that. That explains why I'm connected to Ben's songs. Hes been through pain just like everyone else and you can hear it In the words and I've been a fan for over a year now and Breaking Benjamin music is what's helped me out of my pain when I couldn't take it anymore he's a Blessing that's come out of the darkness into the light and is now healing others I am one of them . So much gratitude and Love to Breaking Benjamin you guys ROCK.. Definetly my favorite band 🖤🎶🎸💜.. And had the best time seeing them live Sunday 91122 in Albuquerque New Mexico best concert I've been too 😍.
It's not auto tune. If your a fan than you know Ben has a throat disease. That's what gives him that badass sound. With talent added as well. He chews menthol gum to help with his voice shaking. (kinda noticeable in the video) Smoking is obviously a contributor to the sound to. That's why his live performances are hit and miss.
+Jordan Gill I actually love his voice shaking at some points because it sounds almost supernatural, just proving how unique his voice is :) Thanks for the info :)
+Jordan Gill Bro, stop with the throat disease rumor. It is not true lol. He had a throat infection 1 time now everyone thinks he has a disease. Although, now, he has a condition called "wet brain" from alcohol abuse. No throat infection though lol. With that said, you may be right in this video though. I think this may have been when he had the infection.
Still probably one of my favorite songs ever. Ben is my idol as much as Kurt Cobain is his. This mans songs has helped me through so much bullshit. So glad I saw them live almost 2 years ago finally.
When you arent playing a crazy long setlist under blazing hot lighting with barely a chance to get water, your vocals arent gonna be the strongest. This is clearly in an atmosphere where hes capable of relaxing while hes singing, so hes able to hit the notes better.
I always liked the subtle vocal changes Ben does to some of the melodies when playing acoustic! At 2:02 he ends the verse by raising the last note when singing "mind". The ending sounds great too hearing him sing the last two lines....especially the last!! Breaking Benjamin is the best!!
I'm not a big fan yet cuz I'm somewhat new to BB. And I noticed that not all his songs he sounds like this, but... it's crazy. How does he do that cracked devil mechanic voice? It's fucking beast! Sounds better then the original recorded one, love it!
Cody Pettit Seriously? I thought you were wrong xD I couldn't imagine a signer smoking a cig. Well a guy as young as him. I didn't expect it with his face, lol.
I love Breaking Benjamin and even more Ben so much. Ben's breathing and sweating pure talent, because he's not 70 percent water, but 70 percent talent, writing and performing songs, which beauty make me sometimes feel like I can't take it, like my heart's going to cave in. But not just that, he's also heart-melting funny and adorable. Just look at his face during this video. He looks like he's imitating Jim Carrey imitating Jack Nicholson. How cute is that? xD Can't believe I'll not be able to see Breaking Benjamin live in my life, just because I'm born in the damn wrong corner of the world. Please, universe or god or Santa Clause or whosever job it is to make wishes come true: Take away Ben's fear of flying and give my life a meaning. And if Santa Clause is busy: Can't we just drug Ben and fly his talented ass over to germany, pleaaase?
Well, I fear have to rob a bank first then. :D Air tickets cost a fortune. :( But there's hope for me! I saw an interview with BB a few days ago, and Ben talked about their plans to go on a boat trip to europe soon... That feels, man! :) I'm pumped now!
Before I die one of the things I have to do is personally thank Breaking Benjamin and mainly Ben for just being EPIC!!!! Their lyrics are the deepest out there and every song is so emotionally charged that the feeling is palpable.
This song being played acoustically is awesome itself but Ben's voice just made it ten times better. Swear it gave me the freakin chills. Luv u Breaking Benjamin!
Am I the only one that thinks Ben's voice sounds so much better in the acoustic performances? I'm not saying the regular shows are bad, he just has a much better suit in acoustics to me.
It's been years since I've heard this song, I honestly forgot about it. I'm so happy that I remember it now. I remember my mom playing BB when I was a kid. I'm a teenager now, and this band holds a very special place in my heart ❤
Just look at chad, he's playing the whole vid back there having fun. BB is just an awsome band, I think they should be more recognized because their songs are just, perfect. Thanks BB
I've seen people debating whether ben sings good or not during live. Lets not forget that when you sing a lot of songs with that many screams "LIVE" burns you so damn good,. You will sound bad even after you tried squeezing everything you have at that moment. Not to mention that his disease always made him fatigue which the main bottleneck in Singing. So In my opinion Ben is a great singer,composer,producer. He really gave his all while performing live thats why we love him and all his work :).
When you can sound virtually the same live as on a CD you've got it all. People that dislike this are out of their mind and wouldn't know what talent was if it smacked em in the face
I've been watching videos from this performance three days without stopping and I figured out now that it was on my birthday :D Killer show...Chad is kicking ass, my favorite drummer, awesome style..\m/
![Breaking Benjamin - Had Enough [LYRICS]](/img/n.gif)
I'm going to say that Ben is one of few people who sound the same in studio as he does live
Are you perchance from Germany?
Not in every song.
I noticed
No he doesnt! Seen him live three times... has matched the album almost exactly every time.
+LightningRider81 I went to a concert and he sounded pretty close to the audio
Love how he changes his voice to sing "I will be the one"
That's what makes him so special to me. In Phase it sounds like two different men are singing.
I listen to this daily. There's no getting over this song.
I liked BB much better when he was with these members
of his band, it's a shame they betrayed him, I think he was
at his best during his time with his original line-up.
Me too. To live i need food, water and this video every day.

sorry, * in an interview he said that.

And had the best time seeing them live Sunday 91122 in Albuquerque New Mexico best concert I've been too 😍.
It's sad though, he and his wife separated. 😔
I don't know why they aren't more popular. They actually deserve to be popular- they're amazing!
2:48
"Hold me down" part .. goosebumps !!!!!! the way he says it .. what a voice ben
jesus O_o that's incredible for a live performance
I fucking know dude he sounds amazing ^~^ I grew up listening to him c:

+Jordan Gill I actually love his voice shaking at some points because it sounds almost supernatural, just proving how unique his voice is :) Thanks for the info :)
+Jordan Gill It has auto-tune all over it, it's quite easy to tell.
+Jordan Gill Bro, stop with the throat disease rumor. It is not true lol. He had a throat infection 1 time now everyone thinks he has a disease. Although, now, he has a condition called "wet brain" from alcohol abuse. No throat infection though lol. With that said, you may be right in this video though. I think this may have been when he had the infection.
+Gd0g427 no, its not a throat infection. it was a lung infection from smoking and other causes
+Gd0g427 Ben says none of the medical community knows what it is, so it can't be 'Wet brain'.
When you've met and shaken Benjamin Burnleys hand 🤘🏼
I know that feel :)
I'm just kidding, omg you are so lucky!
That feel when you've met Ben in Berlin, got photo with him and catch his guitar pick ^^
When breaking benjamin had a concert in Nevada they signed my cd
Still probably one of my favorite songs ever. Ben is my idol as much as Kurt Cobain is his. This mans songs has helped me through so much bullshit. So glad I saw them live almost 2 years ago finally.

+yYylkraaYyY honetly there a few times when he doesnt sound so good.
***** That doesnt happen with most singers. Ben must have some kind of illness.
+Anonymous User he has throat problems and wet brain
I loved his singing in here tbh i prefer this to the original
Love the new red cold river
This is what Ben is capable of when he doesn't have a throat infection.
Seriously, how is there any thumbs down? This is live and they sound amazing. This is a dying skill.... Ben is amazing.
I can't get over the fact that Ben looks like a modern-day sexy dracula. I have a feeling I may be alone in this...
I second that
you're not alone here, not at all..
Taylor I get that reference XD
I was hoping someone would!You just made my day:) have a good life my fellow Benhead:)
I've always thought he was really sexy in a dark way
I've been a fan since 2003 and always will be!!!!
Dang man, I need to get back to work before I get fired.
It really do be like that sometimes
lolol ditto man
This is a pure masterpiece
My top favourite Breaking Benjamin songs.
1. Until the end
2. Had Enough
3. Unknown Soldier
i just like watching his eyebrows go all loopy
Goosebumps, after all this time, they still manage to give me goosebumps. Everytime I listen to them, i get so amped up. Love them.
i want to see Ben cast in a movie.
I know right? He has thia "look" about him!!
Christian bale 😂
I bet He could play a badass vampire.
As a super hero 😎
one of the best live acoustic performances. LOVE this album.
One of the best live singers
amazing performance wow
i do..
Com certeza!!
I always liked the subtle vocal changes Ben does to some of the melodies when playing acoustic! At 2:02 he ends the verse by raising the last note when singing "mind". The ending sounds great too hearing him sing the last two lines....especially the last!! Breaking Benjamin is the best!!
Ya damn right he does....his fuckin voice sounds like its coming from the inner depths of hell out of a biomechanical centaur...
There's something about Ben Burnley's voice that gives me chills everytime I hear him
This is incredible. It's not often that you find an artist/band who sounds exactly how they do on their albums, when performing live.
I'm not a big fan yet cuz I'm somewhat new to BB.
And I noticed that not all his songs he sounds like this, but... it's crazy. How does he do that cracked devil mechanic voice? It's fucking beast!
Sounds better then the original recorded one, love it!
It's digging deep into emotion, and screaming from your chest, not your mouth. He is a master. Beautiful voice.
he is also a pack a day smoker... helps with the rasp. lol
Cody Pettit He quit drinking and smoking.
I knew he quit drinking. Didn't know he quit smoking, but still, he was a pack a day for many years. That rasp won't go away I'm sure.
Cody Pettit Seriously? I thought you were wrong xD I couldn't imagine a signer smoking a cig. Well a guy as young as him.
I didn't expect it with his face, lol.
love their music preformed with true passion
He does have a beautiful beautiful voice on this one
I love Breaking Benjamin and even more Ben so much.
Ben's breathing and sweating pure talent, because he's not 70 percent water, but 70 percent talent, writing and performing songs, which beauty make me sometimes feel like I can't take it, like my heart's going to cave in.

And if Santa Clause is busy: Can't we just drug Ben and fly his talented ass over to germany, pleaaase?
Nah we shouldn't drug him so he can enjoy the plane ride.
hahaha, that's mean :D
I'm only joking don't worry ;D
MsElectraheart
Alternative: you fly to the US. Their tour begins tomorrow
Well, I fear have to rob a bank first then. :D Air tickets cost a fortune. :( But there's hope for me! I saw an interview with BB a few days ago, and Ben talked about their plans to go on a boat trip to europe soon... That feels, man! :) I'm pumped now!
That scream though..
Before I die one of the things I have to do is personally thank Breaking Benjamin and mainly Ben for just being EPIC!!!! Their lyrics are the deepest out there and every song is so emotionally charged that the feeling is palpable.
One of the reasons I love Breaking Benjamin is that their songs can have any meaning makeing the songs that much more personal
I love his voice when its more ruff. Its just more intense and makes the song more real.
Here We Go!
Ben is such an amazing singer, I'm so glad BB is back this year!
24/11/2016 i still listen this song
This song being played acoustically is awesome itself but Ben's voice just made it ten times better. Swear it gave me the freakin chills. Luv u Breaking Benjamin!
The only band that I'd feel completely comfortable moshing to at one of their acoustic shows...
Flawless... man would love to see them live
Benjamin Burnley is a beast, I had not a clue he was this great. I think I saw them at the rave in Milwaukee. But I don't remember.
This is real music right here. And i have not Had enough of this!
This kills me! His voice is perfect
I wish I could like this video a thousand times.
Am I the only one that thinks Ben's voice sounds so much better in the acoustic performances? I'm not saying the regular shows are bad, he just has a much better suit in acoustics to me.
i agree, some artists are just more fit for acoustics
I have loved this song from the first time to the 2,000 times I’ve played it in ever shape and form !
So so good, gotta be in my top 5 favorite bands of all time, top 3 songs for this band.
Jesus! He's sounds just like he does on the CD's. Thank God they're back! It's been to long!
O my GOD Breaking BENJAMIN!!!!!!!!is very very good lol,,,,From Brazil(s)!!!
Their drummer stole the show. That guy is sick !
Breaking Benjamin will still live on! We still have Ben and Chad!
It's been years since I've heard this song, I honestly forgot about it. I'm so happy that I remember it now. I remember my mom playing BB when I was a kid. I'm a teenager now, and this band holds a very special place in my heart ❤
This performance, and song is awesome! BB forever!
By far my favourite song from them
