Pure beauty. Pure emotion. Pure genius. Words will never be able to express how much I love this song. Also, the thumbs-up at the end was absolutely ADORABLE. XD I really wish I could write lyrics like that. I envy whoever it was inspired by. =) If anyone wrote a song like this about me, I'd die.
omg i dont even know what to say this one was just really really amazing this is the song you would listen to to brighten up the mood well for me atleast
I'm at a pretty tough point right now with a lot of things and this song in particular is one that just really helps get through everything. I learned how to play it on the guitar and I just sit around and play it a few times a day and sing along. I've recorded a cover, but don't really have the confidence to post it online. Regardless of all of that, I'm just glad Rise Against made such a relate able song that can make you feel better, when things are down.
Damn, I can't believe 6 years have passed since I knew Rise Against. Dude! I was 11. Still my fav. band. (I'm not sure If I wrote it right, sorry, I'm not good at english)
It's true that it's more difficult, but typically my old band used a metronome in my drummers ears that kept him from speeding up, and we all followed him.
met tim once......hes such a cool guy, and has the greatest voice i know :P.... o and the whole different colored eye thing is soooooooo cool in person lol
This was the very first song i ever learned on guitar and I constantly play it every other day, because this song is perfect in every way. And it pisses me off at I turn on the tv and all i see is bullshit for music. and Tim here gets next to no recognition for being probably the best voice for our generation
"We live on front porches and swing life away, We get by just fine here on minimum wage If love is a labor I'll slave till the end, I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand"
@Sflame56 there isent one, yes they are in some of the games but what he is talking about is a Guitar hero or rockband which is dedicated to a single band. Like Guitar hero: aerosmith or rockband: The beatles
after i listened this 3 years ago i planned to start singing and play guitar, i always tought i couldnt sing and now i just sing and play guitar for like 50-300 poeple some times :)
I think he means that it is the only song rise against does on "aol undercover" that sounds like the album version of the song. If you watch ready to fall and prayer of the refugee from aol undercover the singing is pretty watered down.
lol dont bash guitar hero..there is greatness there as well. It got me into the guitar and I have been playing for three years and love it, i can play rise against songs on guitar hero and on the guitar, although it is more fulfilling on the latter. Great vid btw.
10 years of swinging life away. Still a beautiful song
I remember hearing this song a lot back in 2006, i was 15.
Time really flies.
i dont get how tim can write lyrics for EVERY song that connects with FEELINGS-its supernatural...
forever obsessed with this song and his voice ♡♡
Still listening in 2024 🤘
That voice...these people...the talent....😍😍😍😍😍

This song gives me a different perspective on life, and I love it so much. Powerful song!
omg i dont even know what to say this one was just really really amazing this is the song you would listen to to brighten up the mood well for me atleast
easily my favourite song of all time to play, i play it at least 100 times a day :)

That's the greatest love song I ever heard! Love you guys
i love the harmonics that are in the intro
I saw them on the 4th in Glasgow, best concert I've ever been to, and when they did this, god you should have heard it.
That´s my favorite acoustic solo. There´s no better.
Awesome song from my favourite band :D
I love this song
All time favorite song hands down.
They played it so well in Sheffield. They got the Violinist from Flobots to play too. Was awesome. Riase 'ya left fist.
This is the band that should be the most famous
This is seriously my favriote song of all time
awesome song! :) reminds me of my friends every time i listen to it! Rise Against
Damn, I can't believe 6 years have passed since I knew Rise Against. Dude! I was 11. Still my fav. band. (I'm not sure If I wrote it right, sorry, I'm not good at english)

I FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG
My New Favorite Band.... Rise Against
12 years of Swing Life Away ❤️
This song was so beautiful that in my english class I labeled my daily journal "Swing Life Away" :3
great song by the BEST band in historie and 4ever to come...
Fave Song!!!!! And I love his eyes!!!!
Haha, I love Tim's thumbs up at the end.
This video needs like a million more views!
Is it me, or do they play faster in this video than the album version?
they are, but you do have to understand that its not exactly easy to keep the same rhythm in a live preformance as you do when recording the album
It's true that it's more difficult, but typically my old band used a metronome in my drummers ears that kept him from speeding up, and we all followed him.
Project Xanthous King It's okay because I like it slower anyway.
SleighJessi lol,difficult?
Excellent Nosh this is the ep version.. I love this version. Never liked the album version.
yeah, he was Rise's former lead guitarist, until he left and Zach took his place. His name is Chris Chasse, just to help you remember :)
i love this banddd
♪♫ Remember me on everything you can't control ♪♫
this ia such an amazing song......
best Rise Against song ever, imo
i need them to come to london asap.
met tim once......hes such a cool guy, and has the greatest voice i know :P.... o and the whole different colored eye thing is soooooooo cool in person lol
evergreen!
Its a different style....... still love it
i love his voice
these guys r great
Freaking love this song ❤
Rise Against for life.
Thumbs up for the awesome harmonic melody :D
I had to sit for a few hours just watching the Live version of this song over and over before I was able to tab it out, mostly correct.
As the Hero of War lyrics: "Not just once, but again and again"
this video diserves millons of views
Hes voice is so nice
this is amazing
@peachrocker1 siren song of the counter culture - one of my personal favorites
He's so perfect
What a pretty song.
This was the very first song i ever learned on guitar and I constantly play it every other day, because this song is perfect in every way. And it pisses me off at I turn on the tv and all i see is bullshit for music. and Tim here gets next to no recognition for being probably the best voice for our generation
Good song!!!
great song
HEz got a mad hair do
best song love it!
"We live on front porches and swing life away,
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand"
That entire argument made my head hurt, please do. They literally started arguing because they agreed on something.
love this band XD
awesome song :D:D:D
amazing.
@superhybridd9 Every swing life away version has harmonics in it, they're just not as loud, chris' guitar is reallll loud in this, but i love it:)
This is how he was meant to sing. His voice was made for this.
@Sflame56 there isent one, yes they are in some of the games but what he is talking about is a Guitar hero or rockband which is dedicated to a single band. Like Guitar hero: aerosmith or rockband: The beatles
@blaseyly thats awesome! congratulations :)
thx man:)
*thumbs up at the end* Tim approves!
The best
after i listened this 3 years ago i planned to start singing and play guitar,
i always tought i couldnt sing and now i just sing and play guitar for like 50-300 poeple some times :)
Love it! :3
Beautiful

I wish i had his voice!
lol the channel name is riseagainstvevo, couldn't agree more
their not the best live band but dam do their recordings have a place in my soul.
I love Chris's sideburns:)
@galmerkado I'm not sure if you know this but this originally was an acoustic song
@evilwolfdemon1 Wow, how could i forget? This is the internet...where immaculate grammar is mandatory. Thanks for the heads up.
I think he means that it is the only song rise against does on "aol undercover" that sounds like the album version of the song. If you watch ready to fall and prayer of the refugee from aol undercover the singing is pretty watered down.
@TheEthanhausler recently Tim's been using a Gibson Hummingbird
Some songs are better without auto tuning, this is one of them.
lol dont bash guitar hero..there is greatness there as well. It got me into the guitar and I have been playing for three years and love it, i can play rise against songs on guitar hero and on the guitar, although it is more fulfilling on the latter. Great vid btw.
