This is beautiful. Your voices are amazing and hearing Shawn sing was a real treat. The song being acoustic gave it a quality that lets the words really sink in and hits you real hard. This is amazing and I think I might love it more than the original, though the original also has amazing qualities.
They are amazing and yes this song is so much more soul grabbing now im new to icon fans but icon is all i listen too anymore having had a daughter who was a cutter i wish they were around then i love you guys thank u
I like how in this version, at the end, you can see the panic that lies behind this question. Like, in the original, you see the "take-back-your-life" side of waking up and realising that you can't stay the same person after you rid yourself of that toxicity; but in this version, you get to see the softer elements and moments of doubt, the quiet panic you don't want anyone to see or else they might doubt that you're actually getting better or that you were genuine when you said you wanted to. This version shows the fact that this fucking question actually haunts you for a while until you start to find yourself. I like that that they're showing both sides and that they're showing this with just as much passion as they did the original instead of just some watered-down quieter version of the original.
Can you fix this, am I too far gone? I’ve never done this before Don’t know if I’m ready but I wanna move on And I’ve never said that before I don’t wanna be stuck, I don’t wanna be crazy This is the way that my sadness made me Come quick, yeah come save me I don’t wanna be stuck, I don’t wanna be crazy This is the way that my sadness made me Come quick, yeah come save me Tell me, tell me Tell me who I’m supposed to be now Make me better I can’t stay halfway dead forever I fear now There’s not much left of me When you take the sick away Who am I supposed to Who am I... Who am I supposed to be? Recovery time, a condition like mine What are we talking here? Getting so close, I can taste the hope But I still feel the fear I don’t wanna be stuck, I don’t wanna be crazy This is the way that my sadness made me Come quick, yeah come save me I don’t wanna be stuck, I don’t wanna be crazy This is the way that my sadness made me Come quick, yeah come save me Tell me who I’m supposed to be now Make me better I can’t stay halfway dead forever I fear now There’s not much left of me When you take the sick away Who am I supposed to be? Who am I supposed to be? For years, this is all I’ve known, this has had my heart, this has been my home And now I’m scared to lose myself, scared of letting go For years, this is all I’ve known, this has had my heart, this has been my home And now I’m scared to lose myself, scared of letting go Tell me who I’m supposed to be now Make me better I can’t stay halfway dead forever I fear now There’s not much left of me When you take the sick away Who am I supposed to be? Tell me who I’m supposed to be Tell me who I’m supposed to
completely different vibe from the normal version but also very powerful just in a different way. this one is a lot more sad begging while the other one is more frustrated anger begging
Unless you to are incredible actors, the way you two look at each other in this video, you can just feel the admiriation. also, I may or may not be covering this in an open mic night. Sorry for butching it I'm a terrible singer, but this song has become my theme song.
Your guys' song, particularly this one hits me so hard because it's exactly what I'm going through right now. I've been through so much, so many expectations of other people that I forced myself to live up to while continuously ignoring what I FELT, but now that I'm seeing my real self it's so hard to look at the mirror because I know it's a version people dislike. You have saved me countless times from killing myself, and I am so thankful for that. Please continue singing and reaching out to hearts like mine. 💕
I have never had depression but of course I can be empathic, supposed to be touch me but this version much more ! I had tears in my eyes. It's SO beautiful ! I congratulate you very much on what you do and help us. And it's cool to hear Shawn singing too. I can'nt wait to hear the acoustic version of under the knife because it was what I lived.
Shows the group's talents in a stunning new way. Shows the hand of a talented producer. Hands-down the best "unplugged" album I've ever heard and that's saying something. I have a MP3 collection of 60,000 songs and I listen to all of them. We often put acoustic sessions in a special category as we do with live albums. This may be the band's finest album. Period.
This song is so incredibly raw and emotional and seeing such incredible people grow and share their talent with the world is amazing. I’ve been to their concert and I’ve met them, it was one of the most amazing nights of my life and I’ve never met two more compassionate artists. They care about their fans so much and they care about their support like no other musician I’ve heard of. This made me cry so hard, I love them
This song has so much more feeling behind it when with acoustic. The original version is awesome no doubt about that, but this version is even more amazing.
Today is the first time I've ever heard your music and I was captivated by your voice and lyrical talent 30 seconds in to my first song. This song is beautiful and perfectly haunting. Love it
This became one of my favourite songs to listen to, especially with what I am going through mentally. I hope everybody is doing well, as I am trying to as well.
This is perfect. Ariel your voice is beautiful, clear. Your voice colour, unbelievable. Every Acoustic video is better that original. Love to listen your music. And also is awesome when you and Shawn voice is mixed 👌🖤
I really like this song. I would imagine I am not the only one it resonates with. Your voices blend so well. It is clear there is a passionate connection for each of you with the lyrics. What a prelude to living life with purpose. For anyone who has struggled to fight through weakness, rage and self-doubt to create positive change this song is like an anthem of breaking through to the other side. Stepping away from addiction, trauma, illness, or anything holding one back, this song sets the stage for the realization of personal strength, inner peace, confidence, and resilience. You two have succeeded in capturing the essence of the moments between thought and action and have expressed the core of a motivated spirit to break free from one stage in life to a new paradigm that serves an individual well. Okay! That was really cheezy I admit!! But I really liked those Shoes with the spiked studs. Blessings to you both!
Oof, I cannot turn this up loud enough. I can't breathe now 😍😍😍😍 #iconarmy been here since Scripted and I have loved watching you guys and your music grow. Thank you guys for being who you are and for giving so many of us a voice and and a way to keep pushing through life.
I absolutely cannot wait for this album. If you guys release an acoustic version of Perfect Storm, I think I might actually die. Thank you for everything you do!
Hear this song in a so dark period... it just brings tears back, but at the same time it's a safe place where I can cry without being judged or ignored. I feel this pain will never make me numb, will make me suffer on and on. But I can't stay halfway dead forever. Thank you for your support.
OMG When I listened to this I started to cry. This version is so beautiful. To me this version packs more emotions then the original. but I love both. totally cant wait for the Acoustic Sessions to drop.
I'm so in love with her music .... I have three beautiful kids and lost so many people... I'm still hanging on..🌹 there is a strong Storm before a beautiful sunrise 🌄 sunrise.
Ariel is one of the most genuine, down-to-earth people in the music industry. She reaches out to such a broad audience, and she has had an enormous impact on many people's emotions. i saw them at Download 2019, and I hope to see them even more in the future. Icon For Hire deserves more for what they do, for the effort Ariel puts into this music.
Ummmmm, I am blown away by this version. Your voices blend so well together, and it just brings out the raw feelings of recovery. I think your music has been the most on point with my frenetic efforts to heal from my past traumas and find who I am, not who I would have been. Thank you so much for putting your hearts into your music. And the concert in Chicago was well worth the trip. You have a lifetime fan in this old lady.
Thank you so much for your love and support, Icon Army! We are so grateful to you
Rock on
any thing for the people who saved me
♥
You two are the best! ❤

I am in tears holy shit who would have thought that I'd love this song even more and feel even more emotionally attached to it
AlyCat from Paramore omg. Right?! It pulls at my heart and makes me cry. You can you feel the pain. Especially when you know how it feels.
I like icon for hire, birthday massacre. I got the t-shirts
They are amazing and yes this song is so much more soul grabbing now im new to icon fans but icon is all i listen too anymore having had a daughter who was a cutter i wish they were around then i love you guys thank u
Those who haven't heard it yet, you won't be disappointed!
Is the entire album out?
@@bioticheart I wish it was, December 7th is the release date
@Malice Catastrophe I posted this before anyone could listen to this lol

It's amazing how a shift of tone can change the whole meaning of the song
I love the way she looks at him or when he looks at her it’s cute
They're married :D and have been since 2017
ARIEL AND SHAWN!!!!! I’M SO PUMPED FOR IFH4!!!!!
Can you fix this, am I too far gone?
I’ve never done this before
Don’t know if I’m ready but I wanna move on
And I’ve never said that before
I don’t wanna be stuck, I don’t wanna be crazy
This is the way that my sadness made me
Come quick, yeah come save me
I don’t wanna be stuck, I don’t wanna be crazy
This is the way that my sadness made me
Come quick, yeah come save me
Tell me, tell me
Tell me who I’m supposed to be now
Make me better
I can’t stay halfway dead forever
I fear now
There’s not much left of me
When you take the sick away
Who am I supposed to
Who am I...
Who am I supposed to be?
Recovery time, a condition like mine
What are we talking here?
Getting so close, I can taste the hope
But I still feel the fear
I don’t wanna be stuck, I don’t wanna be crazy
This is the way that my sadness made me
Come quick, yeah come save me
I don’t wanna be stuck, I don’t wanna be crazy
This is the way that my sadness made me
Come quick, yeah come save me
Tell me who I’m supposed to be now
Make me better
I can’t stay halfway dead forever
I fear now
There’s not much left of me
When you take the sick away
Who am I supposed to be?
Who am I supposed to be?
For years, this is all I’ve known, this has had my heart, this has been my home
And now I’m scared to lose myself, scared of letting go
For years, this is all I’ve known, this has had my heart, this has been my home

@@pranavchat141 its hard bcs they are my favourite band
4 years later and you're still connecting with newcomer fans. Don't ever. EVER stop doing what you do. Thank you. From the bottom of my heart
You're voice is so heavenly Ariel.. thank you 💖
I didnt knew you liked IFH too! 🖤 Good to see you here! :D
@@pandychuu4952 Great seeing you here! 💖 We can be IFH buddies 😊
@@xdazzleedits Yessss! IFH buddies :D ❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@pandychuu4952 Ouhh if we ever did a collab I'm sure we wouldn't argue over who's music to use 😂💖
@@xdazzleedits Yeahhh i agree 🤣 , actually it sounds great, we should do it sometime ;3 ❣️

I can'nt wait to hear the acoustic version of under the knife because it was what I lived.
I would die if you made an acoustic version of nerves
That seems counterintuitive...
And I'm pretty sure they lost the rights, unfortunately.
I thought it was their song how could they lose the rights?
@@banana_lunana Whenever they cut ties with Tooth and Nail records, they also lost the rights to any music released while under contract.
@@zacharyboddy3357 That sucks 🙁
The way Ariel looks at Shawn is so adorable!
The passion behind their stuff is just amazing

Why did I just get a surge of 'empty ' after it was over ?
same i think
I can't express how much I love this version
This made me cry, so haunting, so beautiful. You REALLY did the original song justice with this stripped version.
WOW! They MADE A MOVE, had the NERVES, and YOU STILL CANT KILL THEM! Is this how it’s SUPPOSED TO BE? Lol I love it great job 💕
Amazing! Need a whole set, now:
The Grey
Under the Knife
Get Well II
Hope of Morning
And more!
The Grey is already slow
God I love the acoustic version of this song
Mee too
Love the accoustic version just as much as I loved the original... Maybe even more ! You guys are wonderful
I love everthing Shawn and Ariel do. Their music is the best 💕
This was beautiful. The blend of Ariel's voice and piano with Shawn's guitar and backing vocals was stunning. Perfection, incredible son you guys.
This song has so much more feeling behind it when with acoustic. The original version is awesome no doubt about that, but this version is even more amazing.
Holy shit! I already knew your songs were powerful.. but I didn't think an acoustic version would leave me ugly-crying on my lunch break.
You both have a true voice it is both lyrical and a means to reach people thank you
Today is the first time I've ever heard your music and I was captivated by your voice and lyrical talent 30 seconds in to my first song. This song is beautiful and perfectly haunting. Love it

One of the Best Acoustic tracks. Shawn in the beginning knocks it out of the park. Such a great song
