i saw these guys live like 6 years ago. they went mad, with the songs, seamlessly going from one song into the next. i'll never forget how sweaty my t-shirt was that day, and i still wear that old hoodie i bought afterwards.
Saw them open for RBF here in San Diego. Got so drunk and sang every lyric to Streetlight that by the time RBF came on to headline, I dig RBF but they're not Streetlight, I was wasted and lost my voice and made my wife take me home lol
Damn my ex broke up with me in 2007? 2008? was heart broken, and this song brought me back up to where I am today. So thanks SLM even though your probably not reading this lol
listen to it 10 million times as any one like me( a true streetlight manifesto fan) would, and by then 10 millionth time you will notice you subconsciously picked up the lyrics and will be able to sing along perfectly
holy shit my friend told me to sing this at a talent show for my school its been like 2 years since ive heard this song i was like "holy shit ive got a lot of catching up to do!" then the first time i listen to it i get all the lyrics perfect :P
Going through a horrible break up after five years. I've probably listened to this song 100 times and cried. The more and more I listen to it, I feel better. I miss you J. 💔
IDC how terrible people are gonna say my music taste is for saying this, how many death threats I’m gonna get from BTS fans or smth, but IMO this is the greatest song ever written. :)
@bubbarae91 You can always transpose on to guitar then use different musical languages to communicate with those that learn differently like a real musician does. :)
@salty sailor I suppose some people just want to let it all out to anyone when they experience that much trauma, kinda therapeutic for them, just let us hope he's doing better these days
@Gir12349 Well, I could imagine the trombone would be easier to 'tab' then say a sax. It uses only 6 positions and four partials, right? I suppose it could be done
@thematrixwantsyou Talked to some of the hardcore fans in the audience. Apparently this is Kalnoky's least favorite song, that's why he very rarely plays it in concert. Disappointing, though, this is actually one of my favorites xD.
is this song supposed to sound similar to keasby? ive noticed it sounds the same in different ways, and lyrics to have stuff related to keasby nights... i have a feeling its like that for a reason xD
at 2:14 where it says I never thought it would end this way it is saposed to say and ever fuck that just so ya know its not only that a lot is wrong but if you did it by ear not to bad i noticed that because my friend said it cuz he didnt know the words and he noticed it said fuck that i never realized after like 10 times
Me singing this song: If there was something worng dididi dis song you you you take life along... i think i could i think i could bla lala oh fak this is 2 hard let's just enjoy this o.O
Considering the chick in the song is essentially using the argument "well that's just the way that it goes so just accept it without reason", I'd say the singer would be pretty correct in saying that she hasn't seen what he's seen (even if it is just like an "excuse" of sorts).
+Neph Ilim So you saying you have been abused/raped/tortured had friends and family in the same situation or worse, dealt with all forms of medical illness? SMH you're quite ignorant. I think you're the one that needs to do some thinking.
as much as I like Dead Kennedys your so wrong. This song I feel like is about a war veteran who got fucked and almost died. People who have never been in war have never seen what veterans have seen.

this song gives me a tromboner
OMG I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS SONG FOR LIKE 2 MONTHS I LOVE YOU FOR POSTING IT lol
I love this song
I've been into these guys since I was ten, older now, love them even more
Same
I can't believe it's almost 12 years already!
you know this came out in 2003 right
Damn my ex broke up with me in 2007? 2008? was heart broken, and this song brought me back up to where I am today.
So thanks SLM even though your probably not reading this lol
That was before I was born lol

Simply a masterpiece... well thought and magnificently executed.
I've got this entire song memorized. ^.^
@bubbarae91 Actually, trombone does have tabs. horntabs.net is full of tabs for sax, trumpet, and trombone. It's just much easier to read music.
Saw them last night with Reel Big Fish. My life is complete.
Fav song so... Im not gonna die! Yay!
IDC how terrible people are gonna say my music taste is for saying this, how many death threats I’m gonna get from BTS fans or smth, but IMO this is the greatest song ever written. :)
Finally, a fellow edgy teen that likes Streetlight in 2023 :D
@@jeffoneto278xd Yessssssssss LMAO
My homie, ska is not that edgy
What is BTS and SMTH?
I googled it and all I found was a K pop band and the The Smiths came up when I searched for SMTH band
Hell, I used to be incredibly obsessed with straight screaming music. I went through a Beatles faze, and now I find this is a happy medium.
I went to that concert me,my brother, and my dad were in the mosh pit the whole time.
This Nov Starland Ballroom Sayersville NJ Ill be there!!!
This video was uploaded a couple weeks before I was born, jesus
This song is fantastic btw, I've just fell down a Streetlight Manifesto rabbit hole
@bubbarae91
You can always transpose on to guitar then use different musical languages to communicate with those that learn differently like a real musician does. :)
only streetlight manifesto can make a song about suicide sound so happy
Unfortunately my little brother learned a diffrent lesson then i did...he took his life on dec 17 2017
Condolences
I'm so sorry man...
That's fucked up, that day is my birthday
@salty sailor I suppose some people just want to let it all out to anyone when they experience that much trauma, kinda therapeutic for them, just let us hope he's doing better these days
same here. i love Streetlight !!!
lol like it, or die ;) good one! Hahaha i wouldn't be here if i didn't like 'em ;)
Love the breakdown in this song...
Screw people. who dont like this, its fantastic.
this song makes me get up and jump
Fast as hell...amazing as hell...
@loveworld923 Did you go to the concert at State theater? That would be the weirdest coincidence
Wow this is awesome!!
@loveworld923 i saw them in richmond va at the national GREAT show
@Gir12349 Well, I could imagine the trombone would be easier to 'tab' then say a sax. It uses only 6 positions and four partials, right? I suppose it could be done
"you better like it"
Who wouldn't? Fucking love it
OMFG i love this song ;D
@ElizabethShouts I wish all my teachers were like that one
This Song is incredible!
Fucking hits
Innit
@thematrixwantsyou Talked to some of the hardcore fans in the audience. Apparently this is Kalnoky's least favorite song, that's why he very rarely plays it in concert. Disappointing, though, this is actually one of my favorites xD.
@rvpfan he/she also forgot at 0:57 at the end he/she put gos

Yeah I think he got it wrong
"Think"
The guy who sings must have a magic tounge...
15 years old, this video is. And at the end, if you catch the video author’s note…. 🤣 gets another like 15 years later …
Seeing them today
heh, this song was awesome live!(:
@123amitch where?
@loveworld923 They didn't play point/counterpoint. I cried.
How do they write these songs O.o
*dances.*
is this song supposed to sound similar to keasby? ive noticed it sounds the same in different ways, and lyrics to have stuff related to keasby nights... i have a feeling its like that for a reason xD
@TheFrickinPope It's probably his least favorite because that's just about the only song people (mainstream fans) want to hear
I like it c:
This guy I like showed me this. I like it
Elizabeth Puntos He's a keeper. How's ya life been like 5 years?

@bubbarae91 god bless you and your knowlege
at 2:14 where it says I never thought it would end this way it is saposed to say and ever fuck that just so ya know its not only that a lot is wrong but if you did it by ear not to bad i noticed that because my friend said it cuz he didnt know the words and he noticed it said fuck that i never realized after like 10 times

w000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000t!
It isn't " And even I die" it's if and when I die
@iluvcupcake21 it means the "rude boys" (i.e. fans of ska) who happen to be members of the homosexual community should join forces,
sickkkkkk
@wiliam13303 your only eleven and your taste in music is incredible, big ups to you man!
i think its "and if and when i die won'y you bury me alone?" not "and even i die"
How dis no get more views?
Me singing this song: If there was something worng dididi dis song you you you take life along... i think i could i think i could bla lala oh fak this is 2 hard let's just enjoy this o.O

This is like Busta Rhymes for this genre..
@thematrixwantsyou I noticed, I was upset abou t htis..
At 0:34 it's and if and when i die...not ... and even i die
street ligth is da best !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"If and when I die" you messed up like 6 seconds in
Thumbs up if your trying to go the STreetlight manifesto/ Reel Big Fish concert
@dkgdbr LOL thanks. Ya know, taking a break from my religious duties to watch some youtube videos.
You got some of the lyrics wrong
great at warped
@VicSkate It was beast.
6 people passed out mid song and clicked dislike poor souls :(
for non speakers tho...
Thumbs up if you can sing the whole thing! :D
Any person that feels the need to say " You've not seen what i've seen" is delusional. I'm sorry but think about it.
So if I travel somewhere you haven't been before and then tell you that you don't know what I have seen along the trip, I'm apparently delusional?
Considering the chick in the song is essentially using the argument "well that's just the way that it goes so just accept it without reason", I'd say the singer would be pretty correct in saying that she hasn't seen what he's seen (even if it is just like an "excuse" of sorts).
You've not seen what i've seen, and fuck you.
+Neph Ilim So you saying you have been abused/raped/tortured had friends and family in the same situation or worse, dealt with all forms of medical illness? SMH you're quite ignorant. I think you're the one that needs to do some thinking.
as much as I like Dead Kennedys your so wrong. This song I feel like is about a war veteran who got fucked and almost died. People who have never been in war have never seen what veterans have seen.
@Martthew912 Dude , being homosexual has nothing to do with your music taste x]
