Everybody's only talking about the awesome performance, nobody seems to notice the amazing Lightshow. I see you, light technician. You did good.
This song is about depression and the constant war between his optimistic self and his darker side.
"In many ways I AM the burden that divides us from the light
In many ways YOU ARE the the halo that keeps my spirit alive"
(He is talking to himself.Realizing he controls his own damnation or his own salvation.
"If I survive I fly from here,
But as the chosen pessimist,I carve my name in stone"
You can choose to survive and take flight, or you can be the CHOSEN pessimist and carve your own tombstone.
Terrific song.
Well said
''come faith, i'm dying'' he is literally asking faith to come to him because if he is left to his own devices he just goes back to pessimism ''erase,my free will, and watch me heal'' . man..... this song is fkin good.
Copy an paste from songmeanings but it's pretty accurate
With a severe depression you can't choose to "take flight".
I've been in it for 12 years.
it's interesting you view him saying "I carve my name in stone" in the negative, with a tombstone, and I view it as a positive, like carving your name in stone for the future to see, leaving behind a part of you with the world. Absolutely love this song, and I your view on this song is absolutely wonderful.
I've listened this song for blilions of times and at this part 6:14, I still get goosebumps and my eyes get wet
this is legendary. this is art. this is masterpiece.
That lights too WTFfffff :o
Same here bro
It gets me everytime. Just no words.. Legendary. as you said
what’s even more bemusing is that I think most of people here know which part it is without navigating there
@@vitaliishevchuk339 absolutely yes!
And its so much better than the studio version!
Anders' scream at 4:50 and 4:55, holy fuck it rips my soul..
IN FLAMES WE TRUST!
Wish I could scream like that
That’s my ultimate dream
Έβαλα να το ακούσω για να πάω βόλτα..
Highly underrated In Flames song right here people.
Hassan Siddiqui by who? if it was underrated they still wouldn't play it live
Matthew Cohn I would say the majority of In Flames fans seeing as how this is pretty much how they sound like these days. And artists usually tend to play songs live that are singles and/or popular which this song is neither.
Hassan Siddiqui I personally love this song and live is the best version every time IMHO
It doesn't go down as prog-metal In Flames, but this is lyrically one of their best. This song got me through one of the toughest periods of my life.
I dunno, that's my favourite In Flames song!
"Between love and hate which path to follow" always brings me to tears. The melody is so beautiful and the way he goes from signing to screaming was exactly what I felt when this album came out. It was a time when I was deciding whether to kill myself or try to go on and live. I hope anyone else thinking the same chooses to live. Will life be easy? No but it can get better. Get the help you need. Dont stop trying. If I had not chosen to go on I wouldn't have my beautiful wife and lovely baby girls.
Awesome. Hope you are still doing better. Was at that point as well and I'm happy I'm still alive.
So much fucking emotion in this song. I love it.
4:55 Top 10 screams of all time
Oh my god, the goosebumps at 4:55 !
shit yeah!
Agreed 100%
rinse and repeat at 6:16
@@chasehayes375 ... and again 7:26
That scream, omggggg.
This feels like birthday. I cannot believe they actually played the whole song live, let alone nail it so perfectly. This is by far my most favorite In Flames song for the breathtaking trip I take every time I listen to it.
They sounded better then album version
one of the best metal songs in last 10 years
Dejan Ilješ nowhere near
TheStateofruin just my subjective oppinion, nothing to worry about
Dejan Ilješ I agree.
Oh, shit! One of my favorite songs from In Flames and this just popped all of a sudden. Freaking love this song.
Absolutely agreed! I squeed like a child when I saw that video pop up in my sub box.
Selbi Inkille Haha
Same here with me, lovin that song, its my personally favourite....definitely buying the DVD very soon 😈😈😈
Tell me which side I'm on
Approaching constant failure
Tell me which side I'm on
(Who's friend or foe?)
Approaching constant failure
Between love and hate
Which path to follow?
How can I keep balance in this race?
Come faith, I'm dying (slowly)
In many ways I'm the burden that devides us from the light
In many ways you're the halo that keeps my spirit alive
Temptation
Play the good or evil part
With me, you evoke the dark
Erase the free will and watch me heal
Tell me which side I'm on
Approaching constant failure
Between love and hate
Which path to follow?
How can I keep balance in this race?
Come faith, I'm dying...
Amused by the trials and tribulations
If I survive I fly from here
But as the chosen pessimist
I carve my name in stone
I carve my name in stone
Amused by the trials and tribulations
If I survive I fly from here
How can I keep balance in this race?
Come faith I'm dying...
Does anyone besides me want to hear this performed with a full orchestra?
Not thought of that until now, great fking idea
Definitely
I am
Yes.🤔✔️
Damn right
I ve watched this live for billion times, i don’t think i ll ever get enough of it. I feel highly connected to this song
but it has been clicked only 630 thousands times up to now
Can Pehlivan it was a metaphor obviously, the heck
@@Jouhainaplayingmusic73 thanks for saying the truth that i have not seen
Can Pehlivan weird flex but okay
holy shit this video made me realize how much i miss live concerts
just the feeling of enjoying the same music with thousands of people
and feeling the same feelings with thousands of people
hopefully this will be possible again soon
Amén!
And so it was
Am I the only one that listens to this song 50 times before changing to another In Flames song? The feels man, the freaking feels of this song..
I can't listen to this song very often, because of the feels. It's a one-of-a-kind track for them. Extremely moody. Fantastic song, nonetheless.
I'm not crying, YOU'RE crying.
We're*
That swedish sentence before the cheers "ni får låta om ni vill" is "u can make noise if you want to" Hahah! Then he repeats "skrik", "scream"
Is that correct? I was suddenly curious and I put it on Google Translate and according to it, it means "You can leave if you want to". Of course I don't trust it, are you Swedish?
@@jessica.sunsetter it is correct...im Swedish...
SKRIIIIK!
@betterdays Ni får låta om ni vill is what he is saying and it means as stated above you may make sounds if you want.
Can confirm all this is true. Swedish crowds are also known to be a bit quiet so artists are sometimes disappointed in the lack of engagement compared to southern europe and usa e.t.c. // Quiet Swede
Damn at 6:30 Anders is giving it all he's got! Incredible!
Even as an old school In Flames fan, i love this live performance. Got so much passion in it.
4:57 no words is just pure perfection!
This should have one billion views
One of the greatest songs of all time.
Their entire existence is underrated.....puts me exactly where I belong which is exactly where I am....which is completely and utterly....lost in my troubled soul........
fml! "approaching constant failure"..."come faith i'm dying". This song pushes so many buttons...even more in this live version!
Glad I'm not there, I would've just stood there in the crowd and cried because this shit right here is Right in the Feels (tm) and is a goddamn masterpiece.
I only listen to this song when times get tough and it seems impossible, it just breaks me easily...
Juppie902 same here man, same here
Did you just tm right in the feels 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Heard them play it live, not at this show, but nonetheless it was a very powerful moment.
I saw them this year at Summer Breeze. Then they played this song. I didn't know it's title nor any lyrics. But something inside of me reacted, so I stood there for about 8 minutes just crying.
I was there... It looked like the roof in the venue opened up and something from outer space landed, at the same time as someone was touching my freaking soul. This might be the most weird shit I have ever said but I can't put other words on it :) but oh the tears... Oh the tears!
Amazing lyrics. I love this song.
Greetings from Italy 🇮🇹
Imo this is better than the studio version. Wow
Agreed
4 am & I'm awake listening to this song...ever since I first heard it, it has always calmed me.
Anders your voice! OMG ❤❤❤
Ce titre est magique...
nice music
Уже столько лет прошло, а до сих пор до мурашек пробирает эта песня...
Тоже поймал себя сейчас на этой мысли..
This band makes me proud to be Swedish 🇸🇪 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪
I’m so glad I listened to my intuition to pick up the ‘Come Clarity’ album in ‘05, I saw it on the shelf and it just said “listen,” and I couldn’t be more grateful that I did. In Flames We Trust 🔥♥️
When you feel and be alone, just come here and listen to this epic music of In Flames ... then that's when you realize that the whole world is with you!
In Flames we trust!
I hope that after I die, wherever I go, I could keep listening this. Is pretty much everything I ask
Me too @Nicolas If there is no In Flames in Heaven then Im not going there ♥🔥
This band is underrated being that I only found them about 6 months ago; They deserve so much more recognition, I think in a world hung up on genre's instead of Good/ or bad music people would rather classify their musical identities rather than love it because they love it.
heavier than your thoughts, deeper than your soul! IN FLAMES RULE \m/
Not only is this live performance one of a kind audibly, but also unbelievable visually!! The light show is amazing! 🖤🤘🎼
I don't know why I keep coming back to this song?, 2020
Cause it is a masterpiece :D
It's amazing. I wouldnt even call it sad, it feels hollow almost
Perfect song. Pure feel and emotion. ¨Play the good or evil part. With me, you evoke the dark. Erase the free will watch me heal... If i survive I fly from here. But as the chosen pessimist I carve my name in stone.¨ Beautiful lyric. IN FLAMES for ever.
My favorite IF song. Must see this song live
One of the best
I've never got tired listening to this song.
Live version is intense. Love a re-recording in this harsher/old style.
God I ❤ this song ever...
I USED TO HATE THE NEW IN FLAMES BUT THIS SONG REALLY MAKES ME GIVE THIS GUYS A NEW CHANCE TO MY PLAY LIST..!!
It's funny how he seems to be denying any melodic singing, but when it's time to pour out the screamed voice he gets into the song and releases the beast xD Epic
Best In Flames song btw..
I love this version more than the original one
This is a really great song, but the best performance I've seen of it was when they opened up their set with it at Astoria in London, with a big white screen in front of the stage so you could only see their silhouettes on the screen until about the 5 minute mark when they dropped the screen and the roar from the crowd was astonishing
Did the same in Norway, mindblowingly astonishing
Simply Magic and Amazing 🙏🙏👍👍
His voice brings me goosebumps always, Andres is the best.
I remember that the artwork on this albun is superb. The jester reflection on the mirror and such.
one of the best live performances ever
in flames would rock without the lights and all but damn...their light guy of this show is a GOD! every song/video ive seen is super super fantastic and feels even more intense with all the lights! IN FLAMES WE TRUST! LOVE THEM!
Most beautiful concert in history
MAGNIFIQUE
Le mot est faible ;D

I always get goosebumps during the climax of the song, holy shit! In flames we trust!

Cette chanson fait partie de mon top 10 de in flames...............
well that was epic
For a second I thought the song was called the chosen president. Lulz
I think that's one of their best, I don't understand why they don't play it more often, do you?
