lol ive been a fan of flyleaf ever since I was 10 and now I am 19 xD Lacey made a decision that should be respected! she also has a new solo album! if you guys want Lacey then check out the new album and stop complaining here, that wont make her come back lmao! and the new singer has an amazing voice! just enjoy both
exactly. like I'm reading comments and one comment in particular stood out to me. the person said "they should stop making music." and much more. they are giving ALL the credit to Lacey. I didn't listen to flyleaf just for her. I liked the fact that they had a girl lead who could sing in tune with great guitar and drum lines. the lyrics are also what drew me in. but people just can't seem to realize the talent all the members had. lacey was one backbone for the band. they haven't changed. they still sound like flyleaf. this is honestly my favorite made by the band. Lacey is a great singer. but this new album is definitely another amazing creation made by 5 talented musicians. I'm glad they didn't stop. this new singer is doing great and has an insane range. I wish only the best for them.
It is one of the only bands to get a new singer that still sounds original to the band to me instead of a completely different sound and don't seem to match the music the same. Kinda like Evans Blue in my opinion, the singers after the 1st I thought didn't have the same touch to the music as he did, but his sound to me is kinda it's own.
This one is slightly different :) The drums sound much clearer, there's a pause from 0:10-0:12, the guitars are really raw at 0:34, another little pause from 1:14-1:16, ultra drum clarity at 1:26, and the overdubbing of Kristen's voice is more pronounced in the bridge. Small changes but I love it!
Rosela1996 i think a better way of saying it is that its a different mix. i compared what he was saying to the album rip. its the same song, same version, but refined mixing. and those little pauses.
I don't get why new singers get so much hate when they're brought into a new band. Are people just that close minded? I actually like the new singer. Then again I never really seemed to care when a band gets a new singer. Sure, the sound is different. But if you really like/support them, you'll listen to them no matter what.
They are no close minded you idiot. It's a matter as of they don't sound alike. And if you don't like the vocals (the main part of a band like this) then why the fuck would you support them?
cPolonium Theres a difference between choosing to not support a band and constantly bitching that you don't like the new stuff. And yes, the ones that bitch all the time are close minded. They aren't open to change. Personally I like this new singer better than the old.
Zach Dillon Agree that people need to give Kristen a fair shake. Look Lacey had her reasons to leave Fly leaf so you got to accept that and move on. The band wanted to continue so they brought aboard a new singer end of story.
Zach Dillon I don't agree with you. Personally I don't hate the new singer. Also I don't like her. I'm just neutral. Flyleaf ended for me when Lacey left. But I still check out the stuff they release. And that's the only thing I do. Check it out, it doesn't stick with me. Kristen is doing what she does very good, regardless, it's not my cup of tea. This is Flyleaf v2. It will attract new people, it will lose old fans, some fans will adapt to the new version and stay. It's just the way it goes. But calling people close minded cause they don't prefer the new voice of the band is just wrong. That would be like saying that people are close minded if they brought hm... Justin Bieber to be the new singer and then expect people to still like/support them.
+cPolonium I would support them for the simple fact that they didn't have a choice. Lacey left. It was her choice. The band has to keep going. And they still sound great.
i wish kristen hadn't left flyleaf,.she was so amazing and i thought we'd get a flyleaf 2.0 but well... fingers crossed that she returns or something, i actually loved the new sound of flyleaf.
Dude this song is so fuckin good! I just discovered Flyleaf and what i've gathered is that the old singer left and a new one joined and apparently everyone is hating on her? I think this song is sick dude, yall need to chill
I can see how this is a lyric video.. But afterall if you want to sing karaoke to this, this just wont cut it. Great video however, really unique lyric video and I really like it. I'm not saying this 'cause i wanted to sing karaoke to this, but for the people who do.
This is a lot better I think this is more unique to her as an artist although it's still vage and disassociated the sound is better and I think she did still try to show herself more as an artist
guys its a different singer of course she isnt gonna sound like lacey, everyone has their own unique sound. when i comes to music i know this because i am trying to start my own Christian Rock band. im a huge Lacey fan and have been ever since the song Im so sick. but as i said she may not be lacey but guys give her the BOD ya know? im sure its hard for her to go up to that level because lacey is a hard lead vocalist to match. but thats just my musical 2 cents.
I know this song for so long now, that I'm kinda disappointed that this is going to be the new single. But I'm happy Flyleaf stays alive, so I can't complain.
Flyleaf - Thread Chasing echoes through the corner of my mind Hollow eyes are stepping out into the night Now the void is opened calling me inside It's hard to hide I'm hanging by a thread, I'm waiting for you call My hands are turning red I'm hanging by a thread, I thought I had it all My parachute's in shreds All the miles I ride, body turning thin A couple piece of paper trying to open I'm climbing up the rabbit hole, I feel the spin And chase the wind I'm hanging by a thread, I'm waiting for you call My hands are turning red I'm hanging by a thread, I thought I had it all My parachute's in shreds I'm hanging by a thread, I'm waiting for you call My hands are turning red I'm hanging by a thread, I thought I had it all My parachute's in shreds (aah aah aah)
Do check them out. Have a feeling if you liked The Hunger Games series then you'll like Divergent renegade-0910 think Kristen even said at some point that she got inspriation from "Set Me On Fire" whilst reading the first Divergent book.
I like the song but it doesn't sound like flyleaf anymore and I don't know if they should be called that anymore because it seems like they are going in a whole new direction then lacey was going... It sounds more upbeat and dare I say peppy... I'm not saying it's bad just different so should they be called flyleaf?
I definitely think that Kristen has a vocal very more handsome than Lacey Sturm. I know everybody is accustomed to old singer but congratulations for this AMAZING new singer, she sings better than Lacey Sturm.
What a shame that this band kind of fell off the radar when Lacey left. This and their other single weren't bad. It's a shame they couldn't really get in the groove again.
I agree I actually was blessed enough to meet her in the ogden theater concert she had she signed the cd i bought too it was awesome! You guys, we need to give this new singer a chance too i'm sure she will blow our minds! :)
I know that she's probably never going to come back and that's okay flyleaf was a good band while it lasted I just wish that she would have not changed it so much but she completely changed it and that's okay I'm just saying that this is going to be a band that I won't be listening to anymore

Doesn't sound like the old Flyleaf style, sounds like something Fireflight would write and that's a compliment cos I love Fireflight.

Love this song so much
What a great song!
I kinda like this version a little more than the one on the album! Awesome video too!
What do you mean? This version is on the album!
This one is slightly different :) The drums sound much clearer, there's a pause from 0:10-0:12, the guitars are really raw at 0:34, another little pause from 1:14-1:16, ultra drum clarity at 1:26, and the overdubbing of Kristen's voice is more pronounced in the bridge. Small changes but I love it!

Thank you Eric Champlin! You are correct. This is a radio mix that I did for the band. Glad you enjoyed it and noticed all the little nuances.
Kane Churko Is there a way to purchase this version of the song? I would love to have both the album and radio mix on my iPod.
Saw y'all in ABQ, absolutely amazing. Best show I've been to in a long time.
I love this song so much!!!
Keep coming back to this
An amazing song from a great album!! Love you guys!!

her voice is starting to grow on me. i still do miss the growls and screams but hey it's a new beginning for the group.
Loveeee themmmmm 😍
I'm in love with this song and the album, great job with the video .
At least this shit will sell. I loved the band when Lacey was in it, but damn, this new sound is amazing.

Brilliant choice for the replacement vocalist for Flyleaf.

Oh my god this is awesome!!!!!!
great video keep it up!
I hope Thread is the next single.
#Respect #KristenMay
2:34 is so hype
She had big shoes to fill and I think she is doing a fantastic job.
This version is diferent... I would like to see of all versions this song in album. Including the version live.
The live version is amazing. You can seeing and hear the emotion so much better in person. I actually like the new singer.
It kinda sucks that Kristen is getting so much hatred, I thing she's amazing, obviously her voice isn't like Lacey's but I wouln'd say it's worse
Flyleaf - Thread
Chasing echoes through the corner of my mind
Hollow eyes are stepping out into the night
Now the void is opened calling me inside
It's hard to hide
I'm hanging by a thread, I'm waiting for you call
My hands are turning red
I'm hanging by a thread, I thought I had it all
My parachute's in shreds
All the miles I ride, body turning thin
A couple piece of paper trying to open
I'm climbing up the rabbit hole, I feel the spin
And chase the wind
I'm hanging by a thread, I'm waiting for you call
My hands are turning red
I'm hanging by a thread, I thought I had it all
My parachute's in shreds
I'm hanging by a thread, I'm waiting for you call
My hands are turning red
I'm hanging by a thread, I thought I had it all
My parachute's in shreds (aah aah aah)
Comeback Flyleaf. Just come back.
👏🙏🛐
catchy!
Does this mean that Thread is the next single? :D
Let's hope so, 'cause it's a great song!!
I really hope so! Cause it's my favorite song from this album apart from Traitor >.
It is. They want us to request it from radio stations.
James Weldon
I asked this three months ago, dude. Thanks, but I'd already gotten my answer. Lol.
Reminds me of theory of a dead man's music video hurricane
Am I the only one who thinks this could've been on the mockingjay soundtrack?
totally!
Becki Dixon i hope they put this song for the soundtrack of mockingjay part 2
renegade-0910 that would be amazing. Though even more so for the Divergent series!
Becki Dixon i've actually never seen the movies or read the books so i wouldnt know tht
Do check them out. Have a feeling if you liked The Hunger Games series then you'll like Divergent renegade-0910 think Kristen even said at some point that she got inspriation from "Set Me On Fire" whilst reading the first Divergent book.
She and Lacey share the same Voice
WHY HAVE I NEVER WATCHED THIS VIDEO?? D:
i miss you lacey :(
I can't consider this Flyleaf anymore.
I like the song but it doesn't sound like flyleaf anymore and I don't know if they should be called that anymore because it seems like they are going in a whole new direction then lacey was going... It sounds more upbeat and dare I say peppy... I'm not saying it's bad just different so should they be called flyleaf?
I definitely think that Kristen has a vocal very more handsome than Lacey Sturm. I know everybody is accustomed to old singer but congratulations for this AMAZING new singer, she sings better than Lacey Sturm.
2024???
What a shame that this band kind of fell off the radar when Lacey left. This and their other single weren't bad. It's a shame they couldn't really get in the groove again.
She's really good, but i miss Lacey Mosley the older singer, she was AMAZING!!!!!
Agree.
I miss Lacey's voice and emotion in these songs. The new vocalist is good, but something is missing.
if you can't hear emotion in this, I don't know where you could.
I agree I actually was blessed enough to meet her in the ogden theater concert she had she signed the cd i bought too it was awesome! You guys, we need to give this new singer a chance too i'm sure she will blow our minds! :)
I feel joy in his voice and it's good
his????
it's a girl who's singing
I love the new singer but doesn't have the same feel and musical direction. Its like a harder version of paramore
Yeah, mixed with Fireflight.
i prefer this singer over lacey tbh. i hated flyleaf before. and now look at me xD
Kristen < Lacey
haters are welcome ;)
Shamus Gerrity Kristen + Lacey = one hella good time (one can dream right?)
Taylor Swift rock version
Demi Lovato & Paramore collaboration.
Flyleaf isn the same anymore...
And?...no one cares😝
I know that she's probably never going to come back and that's okay flyleaf was a good band while it lasted I just wish that she would have not changed it so much but she completely changed it and that's okay I'm just saying that this is going to be a band that I won't be listening to anymore
I don't like the new singer!!!! 😷😩😱😫😝
This song is amazing !!!!! The video is cool too .....I love the new album sooo much .... The flyleaf guys are AWESOME!!!!! :D i love u guys !!! :) x
