Sadly Johnny Craig was booted from this band too. So this album was the only good one that had him as vocalist. Check out True Colors that's good song too
He was also the lead singer for several of Dance Gavin Dance albums. His replacement is something else, too. Check them out, sometime. Incredible band.
He also is the singer for a few Emarosa albums. He’s also a singer in Isles & Glaciers. He also has solo albums under Jonny Craig. He also robbed fans for money and drugs numerous times during a nasty drug addiction years ago. He’s my favorite singer and my least favorite human I’ve ever met. I’ve met him twice and both times he was toxic to his fans. Only reason he was nice to me is because I had drugs.
I met him when he had been sober for one year and he was such a nice dude. I’ve met lots of artists and he was one of the genuinely nicest dudes. He was way smaller too than I imagined.
This is the song that got me into Slaves, and now they are one of my all time favorite bands. Their music is golden and I listen to them pretty much every day
This music is my inspiration. I listened to this song directly before I played at the last gig that my grandmother ever saw me and my band play. I asked her if she enjoyed the show, and she said "I only wish it was longer". She passed away about a month later, I am always happy and blessed that she could see me put my heart out there for her. She was the only audience I cared about that night. Love you grandma
Kick me when I'm down Keep me on the ground From the ones who I thought they would never leave Who gave you so much faith? Who gave you so much power? You turned it all against me I'm feeling alive like it's the first time But you're goin' and you're goin' and you're gone tonight I'm feeling alive like it's the first time Never gonna be a part of me this time I know you'll write me off I know you're always gonna count me out You think I'm gonna let you down? I know you'll write me off I know you're always gonna count me out You think I'm gonna let you down? Just wait, just wait, just wait Kick me when I'm down Keep me on the ground There's no black and white when it comes to pain All I gave up, it's still not enough You're twisting my demons like there is no love When push comes to shove that fine line gives up I'm left with the feeling of chasing a rush I'm feeling alive like it's the first time But you're goin' and you're goin' and you're gone tonight I'm feeling alive like it's the first time Never gonna be a part of me this time I know you'll write me off I know you're always gonna count me out You think I'm gonna let you down? I know you'll write me off I know you're always gonna count me out You think I'm gonna let you down? Just wait Gonna show what I've got left You haven't even seen my best Just wait All I gave up Still not enough Kick me when I'm down I know you'll write me off I know you're always gonna count me out You think I'm gonna let you down? I know you'll write me off I know you're always gonna count me out You think I'm gonna let you down? Just wait Don't count me out Won't let you down I'm never gonna let you down (Don't count me out, don't count me out) (Don't write, I won't let you down)
I just started listening to the whole album for about a week. It has been such a long time since EVERY SINGLE song on an album gave me feelings and emotions. Beautiful Death is one of the best albums I've ever heard. It's rare for me to enjoy every song on any album and BD is one of them. This album can do no wrong. I'm a fan.
I just stumbled upon this band, this dudes voice is absolutely mind blowing! I can not stop listening to these guys. thank you spotify recommendations...
This song is so bloody good. His voice really matches the lyrics very well. Great vocal range too. Deserves a lot of recognition. This band is gonna be very big!
You mean *was* carrying them. Sure, he has a unique voice but the new singer is gonna be better for the band in the long run. Fewer issues to deal with ;)
His soul is too genuine for this world. He wouldn't be attacked by demons if he didn't have such a gift. It's sad. Addiction takes the most beautiful people. Rather they are alive or dead, it takes them. His lyrics are just perfect. So sad.
Y’all are talking like the man is dead. I realize he has demons, highly publicized ones. We all have demons and his personal life shouldn’t be any of our business. Respect to an immense talent. This man is a legend and one of the best vocalists to ever do it.
This is how I originally found Slaves. This song spoke to me so much, I decided to keep following this band. When the album To Better Days was released, I was so excited that they released another album, I had no idea the singer was different. I had absolutely no idea this guy was the original singer. It just speaks volumes of the new singer and the power of the musicians. I am devastated that the original singer has had problems, but I am fully invested. RAIN CITY, let’s go.
I wish he could have pulled it togethere and stayed in this band.. his vocals suit this style so much, these songs will be on my playlist for a long ass time!
One of the most amazing voices I’ve ever heard. JC has such a good and pure talent. I’m so sad because he’s struggling so much with his addiction. He needs to get better in his personal but his voice is pure gold
"You haven't even seen my best" - we know, all the talent to be one of the biggest artists in the world and it saddens me that we'll never see Jonny at his best. Addiction is no laughing matter and I hope stays clean and focuses on the incredible talent he has.
only 43k views wtf! I'm still shocked. Amazing song I listen to this all the time. It's raw real and I can't help but think we've all known someone or been there in a sense.
if you're new to Jonny Craig as an artist it may be fun for you to check out his older work with Dance Gavin Dance, Emarosa, and Isles & Glaciers. He's also got a handful of solo projects.
@@deathmetalguy100 "Slaves took to social media to announce they have removed frontman Jonny Craig from the band. The news comes after Craig allegedly “chose his addiction over the band” and did not board an international flight for their upcoming tour." ... I don't think they took him back...
This band is awesome I just discovered them this song is awesome the vocals are unreal I was listening to a lot of their songs on the way home from work I’m definitely hooked
Oh I give up, it’s still not enough. Kick me when I’m down, keep me on the ground. I love this song. Currently going thru some hard times and hits like home. Thank you for your Gift in music
Can’t believe how far he’s come from Ema, DGD, and Slaves. He’s a dad now and sober. Everyone has their moments, not everyone has the press and fans to watch their every moves though.
So it’s okay to abuse your fans and band mates and I guess sexual assault is cool too as long as someone learns from it? The dude is obviously talented but it went to waist time after time because he couldn’t keep his head up and focus on becoming a better person. The fuck out of here with you’re defending him non sense.
@@tvo8977 fuck out of here with your bullshit and misinformation. Every single band you mentioned moved on and became bigger without him, so there's no reason to feel bad for them. That shit was like ten years ago. Plus, he never actually sexually assaulted anyone. People take that story way too far. Since you think you're backing up everyone he hurt, it's ironic that you're not glad he's in a better place in life where he's not the harmful person he use to be. Fuckin herb.
@@goodapolloimburningstariv7539 You're obviously misinformed and don't know how to do any research. Fuck out of here you moron. I don't forgive people that sexually assault women, nor do i think they deserve forgiveness. Why don't you read up a bit, or listen to the testimony's of his victim rather than letting your fanboy obsession of a monster stand in the way of what a person has done. Read up before you run your mouth. You sound like a fucking MORON.
Man I just found this song a month ago. Fuck I can't stop listening to it as well as the rest of their music. Johnny's voice is a thing of beauty and when he yells "Juuust waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait" chills and goosebumps! 🔥 🔥
I prefer Dance Gavin Dance, and Emarosa. But everything Johnny Craig touches is awesome! Going to see Slaves, and Escape the Fate in Birmingham Alabama!
@@maxwellmusick When he was in Dance Gavin Dance, he was on their Ep, Whatever I Say Is Royal Ocean, their debut album, Downtown Battle Mountain, and Downtown Battle Mountain II. In Emarosa he was on Relativity, and their self titled album Emarosa
Legit heard this on the radio like 3 years ago Maybe more and look for it for almost 2 years cuz I forgot the name and was so happy when I was able to find it shit just hits
Just recently found these guys last week. And holy fucking shit omfg Aaaaah!!!! Soooo good!!! The band is icredible. And the singer's voice is just unreal. So glad I found this band!! Addicted!😍
just discovered this recently in 2023, idk why the algorithms weren't blasting this band sooner!!! His vocals are unreal
Not too long ago they had a name change from Slaves to Rain City Drive - so deff look more into it
Sadly Johnny Craig was booted from this band too. So this album was the only good one that had him as vocalist. Check out True Colors that's good song too

This song and band is soooo UNDERRATED
Dam straight
Incorrect.
@@elliottkrumnow7563 the singer is a POS not the other bandmates... And this song is underrated, lyrically speaking
Agreed! ❤
I agree! And I’ve just heard about them. I don’t know how I’ve overlooked them. 😔. Welp, I’ve been binge listening to them a lot!!!!!!!
So many people have been rooting for JC for so long. I wish we could have a healthy JC and more music like this.
He has been sober for a while now. I just saw him on tour, and he sang this song ❤ he seems to be doing well
I met him when he had been sober for one year and he was such a nice dude. I’ve met lots of artists and he was one of the genuinely nicest dudes. He was way smaller too than I imagined.
have you heard Pray?
I listen to this song at least 3 times a day - doesn't get old
Weirdo...just kidding- same. ;)
still listening with their song ❤️
His voice is gold.
This is the song that got me into Slaves, and now they are one of my all time favorite bands. Their music is golden and I listen to them pretty much every day
SAAAAAAAAAAAAME
The singer pretty sure is same singer from the band Dance Gavin Dance as well
@@xgensixx7118yes same og singer from DGD and from Emarosa and ghost runner on third. (Jonny Craig)
Look up the band Old Flame, that's Jonny Craig's new band.
This music is my inspiration. I listened to this song directly before I played at the last gig that my grandmother ever saw me and my band play.

Awwwh
Bless her heart, she was so sweet❤
Keep fighting JC
Destroy the ego
Slaves keep kickin' ass
You inspire more than you can imagine...
Kick me when I'm down
Keep me on the ground
From the ones who I thought they would never leave
Who gave you so much faith?
Who gave you so much power?
You turned it all against me
I'm feeling alive like it's the first time
But you're goin' and you're goin' and you're gone tonight
I'm feeling alive like it's the first time
Never gonna be a part of me this time
I know you'll write me off
I know you're always gonna count me out
You think I'm gonna let you down?
I know you'll write me off
I know you're always gonna count me out
You think I'm gonna let you down?
Just wait, just wait, just wait
Kick me when I'm down
Keep me on the ground
There's no black and white when it comes to pain
All I gave up, it's still not enough
You're twisting my demons like there is no love
When push comes to shove that fine line gives up
I'm left with the feeling of chasing a rush
I'm feeling alive like it's the first time
But you're goin' and you're goin' and you're gone tonight
I'm feeling alive like it's the first time
Never gonna be a part of me this time
I know you'll write me off
I know you're always gonna count me out
You think I'm gonna let you down?
I know you'll write me off
I know you're always gonna count me out
You think I'm gonna let you down?
Just wait
Gonna show what I've got left
You haven't even seen my best
Just wait
All I gave up
Still not enough
Kick me when I'm down
I know you'll write me off
I know you're always gonna count me out
You think I'm gonna let you down?
I know you'll write me off
I know you're always gonna count me out
You think I'm gonna let you down?
Just wait
Don't count me out
Won't let you down
I'm never gonna let you down
(Don't count me out, don't count me out)
(Don't write, I won't let you down)
La
Ngl I am a R&B dude, listen to R&B 25/8 but this song? THIS BAND?! Got me listen this album on repeat!
This whole album is a masterpiece - just amazing
I even would say art pure art
1:05 The „Let you down“ part is among my favorite vocal moments in the genre. Super elegant

You prob may not recognize the vocalist is Johhny Craig from dance gavin dance and emarosa
That's legit how I found it lol.
That’s how I found it too lol now I can’t stop either 😩🤯🤯 his voice is insane 😍
Too bad he's been credibly accused of SA and emotional ab*se
@@owl.feathers not sure how either affect his ability to sing but keep reaching nerd
This is one of the best songs I’ve ever heard. It’s getting me through my husband leaving me. I need to see them live and hear more from them ☺️🤘🤘
One of the greatest songs written
Hey
This song is so bloody good. His voice really matches the lyrics very well. Great vocal range too. Deserves a lot of recognition. This band is gonna be very big!
Idk if yall sleeping but bro singing is insanely talented.
The best raw vocals! I like that the producer didnt over process his vocals.
The entire band is great, say what you want about Jonny but he is carrying them to the level they are at. Voice of a god damn angel.
You mean *was* carrying them. Sure, he has a unique voice but the new singer is gonna be better for the band in the long run. Fewer issues to deal with ;)
What happen
Wow! His voice.....🤯😍 Beautiful tone👏🥰
I love this song. The guy can sing. Hope he turns his life around! Much love.
It's so sad, this guy has one of the most amazing voice iv'e ever heard, the drugs are too strong for him. it's so fucking sad.
His soul is too genuine for this world. He wouldn't be attacked by demons if he didn't have such a gift. It's sad. Addiction takes the most beautiful people. Rather they are alive or dead, it takes them. His lyrics are just perfect. So sad.
@@jeffroyston7006 isn't this the guy who abused all his exes?
@@jeffroyston7006 lmao shut the fuck up, worshiping an abusive piece of shit because you like his voice headass boi
@@Bron.. you realize talking to people like that is abusive too right? 💯
No he didn't @@tikusblue
Still the best through tough times, keep it up! Simple and clean.
Y’all are talking like the man is dead. I realize he has demons, highly publicized ones. We all have demons and his personal life shouldn’t be any of our business. Respect to an immense talent. This man is a legend and one of the best vocalists to ever do it.
The man can sing. I have hope!!
just discovered this, and its on repeat 24/7! Are there any other like this ? From Jonny or similar ?
wow his voice is mesmerizing
One of my all time favourites, so underrated. His voice is bloody perfect

Bruh. This song just told my life story.. new fan. Hope this guys continue to get blessed
I still listen to this song daily. I will never tire of it. It is perfect in every way.
Always on the cusp of great stardom, I don't think he can handle it
So glad they got the original video back up
I feel the pain .... I love this sing ...
this song gives me the strength to keep on fighting!
All time favorite song & singer. Unmatched in passion, talent, soul 🖤🖤🖤 .
Your favorite singer is a piece of shit lmfao
great voice tho

This in my my opinion is one of the best songs ever made...
There is so much to unpack. It’s a gem for sure.
@@JamesMilliron well put
This Band is Awesome! Definitely the best band i discovered this year.
Same
I'm gonna miss his voice in Slaves...They're still gonna be a great band tho!

Is he not in slaves anymore?? They just released acoustic versions of some of the songs off the last album

Me too. Jonny craigs voice is like magic.
Wow his vocals are on point. Why have I never heard this wtf??!!
If u need more he had and was in a few bands like emarosa or dance gavin dance
3:21-3:31 gives me chills
