Thanks for watching guys - here are the lyrics:
RUSH
v1
Understimulated jaded mind
So distracted I can’t keep time
Every day is a race that I’m running
Out on the chase and I’m looking for something
Overcomplicated waste of time
Nothing waiting at the finish line
Every day I become the horizon
It’s never enough for you
Because I can’t break through
To the part of my brain
That will satiate
All of the needs that I have
So I can elevate
Nothing I’m doing is right in the slightest
Every other day is a war I’m fighting
Living in a loop with no way out
Just gimme my fucking fix
pc
How much more can the shore of the river take
Feel the rise of the tide
til the levee breaks
c1
I want you to
Flood my brain
And give me
Everything I ever wanted
Make me believe that I can
Be made whole again
Dull my pain
I need that chemical healer
My brain is the dealer
And I can’t get enough
The world burns so we’re
Living for the rush
v2
Past the limit but I can’t rewind
Always in it can’t turn off my mind
Every day a new face I’m uncovering
Don’t wanna wait to see who I’m becoming
Every day I replace the horizon
There’s nothing that I can’t do
Until I can’t see
Through to the heart
Of the way I disintegrate
All of the flaws in the
Face I impersonate
Everything I do to unlock the deposit
Skeletons piling up in my closet
Gotta catch a break some way somehow
Just gimme my fucking fix
Pc 2
How much more can the shore of the river take
It will rise to the size
MZ: of a tidal wave
c2
Until you
Flood my brain
And give me
Everything I ever wanted
Make me believe that I can
Be made whole again
Dull my pain
I need that chemical healer
My brain is the dealer
And I can’t get enough
The world burns so we’re
Living for the rush
br
Living for the rush
Unleash the flood
Of the serotonin you owe me
I did what you asked and
It’s not gonna slow me down
I’m a hostage no more
And I’m not gonna work for you
c3
Until you
Flood my brain
And give me
Everything I ever wanted
Make me believe that I can
Be made whole again
Dull my pain
I need that chemical healer
My brain is the dealer
And I can’t get enough
The world burns so we’re
Living for the rush
We're living for the rush
welp.. that was super kick ass, thanks man
Can't wait for another video like that
I'm Olof Mörck and I approve this message.
Thanks for posting this Olof! Love Amaranthe. Keep rocking!
Amaranthe cover, when? :D
Would love to see Amaranthe cover this!
Great solo (as always). Best regards from Tank Commmando Polish Crew;)
O// BEHOLD! THE OLOF! \\O
Thank you so much! OMG the Olof hair 😆 I tried my best to live up to GG6 🎤 I will pretend to be Amaranthe anytime with you and Angel anytime!🤘
Great job Mary!
@@ErikSeime Thank you man, great mix!!
@@voicehacks Thank you!
You did a great job on this. I got chills when your part came in.
GGVH!
Thanks for kindly inviting me to join you, Trey. I had a BLAST! Loving the way you write, and such mind blowing performances by everybody 👏🔥
You kicked ass, lady!
You nailed it! Great job!
You’re the Elize Ryd of Seduce the Heaven, so to speak. :-)
Love it! #triaxis4ever
I L-O-V-E these "Let's write a song" vids for the following reasons:
1. Tips on use of various plugins
2. Insiders look at your song writing approach
3. Collaboration w/KILLER bands/musicians
4. Creating absolute 'BANGER' songs!
Well done everyone!!
As somebody who is a big fan of Amaranthe myself, you just nailed their style. Those guest Vocalists were awesome and fit perfectly too!
He nailed their style because he quite literally lifted multiple pieces of their songs and spliced them together to make the instrumentals. This is one of the laziest "make a x songs" I've witnessed.
Literally never listened to Ameranthe in my life, but this makes me wanna go listen to their entire discography in one sitting.
You must correct this grievous error
@@treyxaviermusic definitely
Same!
Herman Li and Elize might actually react to this. It was unmistakably Amaranthe, and not a bad song at all. Great job.
Imagine Amaranthe covering this song
I would die
I need this song on Spotify so I can listen to it on repeat
Yo that was sick as fuck
Thanks Chad
Jesus, man! That's spot on! Love it.
This kicks ass!! I feel all fired up after listening to it! Your vocalists were absolutely amazing!
I'm going to make a prediction that you are going to BLOW THE F*CK UP in 2022. Keep going!
That was insanely good holy shite!
Damn you 100% captured the spirit of their sound, amazing job!!
Another absolute banger. Wow.
Mary Z’s shirt is a good reminder you should write an unleash the archer song next
He totally should!
Coming from a HUGE Amaranthe fan, that was AMAZING!!!!! So stoked that y'all did that! :-)
Holy Shit, that song turned out GREAT!!
Damn dude..you nailed it. This is an Amaranthe song through and through. 10/10
Haha! You nailed it! Two thumbs up!
What a banger! Great vocal performances, too!
Amaranthe is a band I am constantly suggesting to convert people to Metal. Absolutely love them.
Fucking flawless
Don’t know what to say… Thank You !!! And Amaranthe also for sharing Your video on fb🤘🏽 Good to follow awesome artists.
Subscribed, waiting for more stuff 😁
Oh shit I didn't know they shared it, thanks for letting me know!
Loved the smug look in the drum transition, flawless 😂
Ok. Keep the Revv. You win.
Amazing! Sounded awesome!
So so good! should really be added to your Spotify profile
Dude! This so fucking awesome! Amaranthe is one of my all time favorite bands and to see you write a song in their style is just mind blowing.
Damn soooo good! You nail all these bands so freaking well it's great!
impressive! such an amount of work here
Great video. Made me immediately go check out the band. I bloody love the chorus on this!
That was seriously sick!! Amazing!! 🤘🤘🤘
Banger!
This song turned out awesome. Thanks for doing it
14:55.... holy moly that was fuckin' sick
Freaking amazing Trey! I'm so blown away how you can create a replica like that.
Fantastic work. This was a really neat watch.
Really looking forward to your songwriting course!
It's here! Check it: bit.ly/SONGWRITINGCOURSE
@@treyxaviermusic already 30% through it!
Wow man. This was so good!!
Trey production game ON point dude! I always love watching these vids! Thanks for the great content!
Good gracious, this was spot on! As a big fan of Amaranthe's style, you REALLY crushed it. Everyone involved did a tremendous job.
This is really cool!
Oh my! You absolutely NAILED this! I've been following @Amaranthe for years and this is great. Thank you for such a great video and "new" song from "Amaranthe". Lol!
That is just SICK! I didn't think I was going to like it, and I was right, I LOVE IT! AWESOME Trey!
Wow! Great job!
This is super cool! I love how the video pans between the musicians but includes cuts of the bass and drum software…too funny!
That was awesomeness! Well done to everyone! I head banged like there was nothing in the way. :)
Wow! Awesome, Trey!
F#%k yeah 🤘🏽🔥
It was soooo to their style now all I want is to hear them play it for real :D Good stuff from everyone involved!
Spot on!
finished product is fkn bangin!!
Love these series! You should keep doing more of these! Can you do one for Battle Beast?
Damn that transition into the chorus! So awesome
You are some talent mate . Love Ameranthe for the same reasons . Ameranthe are like eating a really good cheese cake. Just makes you happy without having to think about it too much .
I would say this follows more of the style Amaranthe used with The Nexus Album. I definitely hear aspects of "The Nexus", "Invincible", and "Afterlife" with the biggest influence on the track being "Afterlife".
It was also very cool to watch how you broke down the musical aspects of the band, was extremely informative and taught me a bit more to use in my own song writing ventures. (I still suck at it, but i'm trying to get better.)
Also, do you have any tricks / tips for getting good tones on the guitar when you don't have an amp and plug directly into a Focusrite with VST plugins?
Outstanding. Informative and entertaining! I'd love to see your brain analyze, and maybe emulate, a classic 70s
prog epic like Close to the Edge, Suppers Ready, or Thick as a Brick. I love that older style of prog where the parts just flow like stream of consciousness, sometimes never repeating. Keep up the excellent material!
This is soooooo good!!!!!!!!
my brain is a dealer... love that dude🤣👍 awesome stuff right here thank you brother
goddam that was so fucking gooood
Holy SHIT dude! You just introduced me to my new favorite band 😍
I just came here to see what somebody else could do with their style, I know nothing about music construction, but I'm definitely a BIG fan of Amaranthe. And guys you did amazing. Pop sure makes metal better
Great job.
Wow, man it's amazing. I was on tour with Amaranthe and was watching them almost every night for one month and have to say you did this song perfectly. You reminded me of this nice disco metal band and you made my day:) Thanks!
Jesus bloody christ that is AMAZING!!!! If you have an MP3, I'd be happy to play it on my radio show here in the UK?
Awesome song. Sounds like Amaranthe. That’s awesome ‼️
Can you please make this available on spotify?!? I’m obsessed!! 😍😍
Haha I saw the still of Olof, I 100% thought 'jeez that guy looks like Trey in a wig’
This is by far one of the best songs I’ve ever heard.
LOVE Amaranthe!!
For the love of god I want Amaranthe to perform this on their next album.
Go tell them that!
just WOW
This was fucking awesome, everyone sounded awesome but goddamn did Angel nail the Elise vocals
feckin awsome
I want the multi tracks to this... Would be so fun to mix
Awesome 👍 final song
🤘 man 602am and I'm ready to throw down, loved this rendition 🙂
Can we make a 'please put this on spotify' petition???
The attention to Amaranthe details is absolutely astounding. Amazing job
Holy Shit that's great!!!!!!
For some reason I had Olof as a contact on MSN Messenger some time way back ago. I only remember that I was a big Dragonland fan
And good times it was, my friend!
@@olofmorck7436 for sure 🤘🏻
I love Amaranthe they are beyond amazing
SAME
@@treyxaviermusic I need to learn how to play their songs to
This song is too good to just be the outro to a video like this
This is so badass! Are you going to release this as a single?
i am a big big amaranthe fan since 2013 excellent song bravo.
The words articulations of Metal Mary Z is impressive. o.O
Oh my fav Amaranthe album so far is Nexus. Awesome album art also
Fuckin sick track.. The main guitar melody gives me HUGE CoB "Needled 24/7" vibes..
I still have Nightwish and Bye Bye Beautiful on my playlist!!
Fuck yeah
Thats actually pretty good man.
ive really gotten into your how to write/ how they write videos man, you make some banging music that is quite accurate. my favorite band is STATIC X. would you possible be down to do one of these for Static? Do a STATIC X song dude please
🤘🤘
Love it! Now I asked this question during one of your live streams but I’m just curious- who mixed and mastered this? Sounds great!
Erik Seime! He killed it
@@treyxaviermusic Thanks! This was a pleasure to work on!
@@treyxaviermusic I’d have to agree!!
@@ErikSeime can I get your details! I’d love to get some music done by you!
love me some Olof Mörck waiting for the new dragonland 👌
Nice to see someone who loves Amaranthe as much as I do!
masterpiece dude! you should do a Kamelot song (Roy Kahn era not tommy).. i would be honored to sing it as well!
