why do people hate on adam so much? when they first recorded this song his voice was really high still and now his voice deepend. it's not going to sound the same. if you listen to tell all your friends and louder now back to back you can hear how much his voice deepend over just 4 years. and people put on weight. so what. it's not a lot, he's not unhealthy. he's just adam. you should be thankful taking back sunday is still performing and making music if you love them so much. stop hating on adam!
The fact that i can hear any of their albums and immediately recognize Adams voice attests to his amazing vocal skills. He took the changes in his voice and forged them into beautiful music for us to enjoy.
his voice "put on weight" it's just stronger.. the bass of your voice is the root, all singers that sing high sing really low to do so, it's a secret we don't talk about. It doesn't have anything to do with body weight.
I messaged him on FB a while back saying how I grew listening to TBS and how much I love them and him (John) and he messaged back like a month later, what did he say you ask? He said ":-)" quote. I love that dude.
I discovered Taking Back Sunday in 2004. I was joining a new friend group after a year in a new school with no real friends. I was 14 I loved their songs and then going into high school I went through the typical high school stuff and their music became so much more to me almost everyone of their songs could be made into a music video of any individual persons life. That’s why they’ve been my favorite band for 16 years
8 YEARS OF LISTENING TO THIS BAND.....ONE OF THE BEST PART OF MY LIFE...TO KNOW THAT THERE OK NOW....AND JOHN NOLAN IS BACK....NICE ONE....TBS...FOR LIFE
When I saw them perform this acoustic at Warped Tour 2012 it was one of the happiest moments of my life. This song is beautiful and perfect no matter how old it gets.
I'm sick of seeing fans of different bands fight. I love Brand New. My favorite band, hands down. But I also really like Taking Back Sunday and Straylight Run. It isn't about the singing ability. I think the best kinds of vocalists are those with imperfect voices but make up for it with legitimate emotion. I'd listen to someone who can get their emotions across over a "professional" who just sings perfectly with no emotion any day.
For those of you saying his voice is bad that isn't true. I just saw him a few days ago live and he sounds amazing. The band as a whole feeds on the energy of their audience, as many bands do. Playing acoustic isn't for everyone but I think it sounds freaking amazing.
Just saw them tonight- this was their second to last song.. Adam is older, but still a handsome man! Don't be rude because he has more talent than you'll ever have.
Really happy see them together again. but at the same time i want Fred get back together with TBS. He makes TBS perfect somehow and his songs incredibly awesome.
cause the world pretty much dictates this outlook :D looks before the personality. and to be honest i probably also misjudge some people by their looks but heeeey so nice that someone still thinks like that :D
I was a music major and can be a bit of a music snob. I love this song and the performance is good and all that. But all I can think watching this video is “damn Adam’s hair looks good!”
I know this isn't the same as old TBS but I love it. I know Adam looks different and even sounds a bit different, but this song is still awesome and emo as hell. I have always loved this song. I love this song more than you. As a matter of fact you hate this song compared to how much I love it. I loved this song before I ever even heard it. So ha!
@@dannysoto24 That album is actually my all time favorite, but I stand by my statement. I prefer this version, John just adds a little something extra. That isn't to say that version isn't absolutely amazing, this is just what I like a little more. That being said, I prefer the Orensanz version with all the other songs on that album.
@kingvincedrums yeah i know. at the houston texas show at the house of blues he was more then spot on. they played this song and it was just amazing. every song was amazing
It's a B side ☺️, it was never on an official album but it is on a few of their compilation albums and they do it live often! There are a few versions on Spotify too!
Fat or not, shaky voice or whatever, it's the song itself plus the way Adam delivers the song and the fact that a lot of people can relate and make us feel that this song relay those feelings perfectly. I think those are the things that makes this song great.
@hurlcan I've said this a million times,but look at any performances before Fred left, Adam was an amazing singer. Combined with his style, he was probably the best frontman I've ever seen.
I don't think the issue is the age as a number persay, they could be 110 for all I care, their music would still be awesome... it's just they seem to have changed so dramatically, and I make emphasis on dramatically. Adam particularly, to be honest. I hadn't checked their music in a while but a few days ago I came across and fairly recent interview of them and I couldn't recognize him at all. If it wasn't for the titles I wouldn't have know who he was. Great music though, reminds me of bettr dys
@ThatDereKid IDK man...look at their performance in Boulder Colorado just for starters, it's all over you tube...Adam doesn't sing 1/3 of his words and he is just constantly out of breath and swinging his mic...best frontman...Cedric Bixler
Adam never claimed to be a great singer. Most rock singers have really shaky vocals. "If it sounds like you, and it sounds like you mean it. People will like it."

I agree
He just sucks to begin with, doesn’t matter what register

this is my favorite version on youtube ua-cam.com/video/geuS2DB8Wow/v-deo.html
Seeing John play this song gives me the chills.
I messaged him on FB a while back saying how I grew listening to TBS and how much I love them and him (John) and he messaged back like a month later, what did he say you ask? He said ":-)" quote. I love that dude.

TBS has a lot of good songs, but this one is my favorite
god i drank a lot to this song in my younger days.
In my 20s and still drinking to this song
2023 and im still here
No matter how old they get I will always love TBS. They will forever be one of my favorite bands.
2021 and I'm still here
2024 and I will go back to this masterpiece
Been in love with this band for a long time
10 years later... I still love these guys :D
this song made me cry when i was 19...till this day i can still relate to this song. takingbacksunday for life!
Out of all the duos TBS had for frontmen, always been those two as my favorite.
john is just...wow, hes a musicly god imo! love him.
8 YEARS OF LISTENING TO THIS BAND.....ONE OF THE BEST PART OF MY LIFE...TO KNOW THAT THERE OK NOW....AND JOHN NOLAN IS BACK....NICE ONE....TBS...FOR LIFE

Tbs fucking gives me feels every time they play this 😭😫
Jus fo'get may,
it's that simpo!
Man,.this song is why i love music. It never gets old, still hits the same keys inside no matter how you are.
those first 8 second was the best part of my life so far ive been alive for 18 years
SAME
SouthFuture dude same omg
no matter what he always sings this song the same way. it's so passionate. real. this is probably their best song.
So many memories....
one of my favorites, one of their best
All I have to say is OH MY GOD!
This makes me so happy I could cry.
Johns falsettos behind adams voice is gold
Adam Lazzara couldn't be more beautiful
the most beautiful song ever
One of their best songs. They're both awesome. Wish I was there infront of them listening while having a bottle of beer.
So much emotion, my goodness gracious.
THE MOST PERFECT SONG
Just saw them tonight- this was their second to last song..
Adam is older, but still a handsome man! Don't be rude because he has more talent than you'll ever have.
John flipping Nolan, you guys......John FLIPPING Nolan.....you guys........it's John Nolan .........(my train of thought right now)
one of my faves. i miss when they played this live in 02/03
Old Adam = Loud, Emotion, Crazy. Grown Up Adam
I enjoy talking about people who I don't know personally cause it makes me cool.
Really happy see them together again. but at the same time i want Fred get back together with TBS. He makes TBS perfect somehow and his songs incredibly awesome.
Your own personal opinion I love brand new and I love these guys
this is beautiful
Best version of this song on youtube. Hands fucking down!!
It makes sense too because, John played this with Adam WAY back then. and thats the only time iv seen them both play it. Now we have a 2011 version :)
My teen years fading away portrayed in one video
You people seem to forget he's not 20 years old anymore. He's a grown man, and in no way fat.
2011 and super fucking old? And now is 2017...and im already in my 30...shit listening to them really take me down to memory lane...
does this song make anyone else cry?
John makes this song bad ass
This song is fucking amazing, seriously I love it :,)
this epic song..that it...
cause the world pretty much dictates this outlook :D looks before the personality. and to be honest i probably also misjudge some people by their looks but heeeey so nice that someone still thinks like that :D
Amazing.
April 13, live here in the Philippines!
I was a music major and can be a bit of a music snob. I love this song and the performance is good and all that. But all I can think watching this video is “damn Adam’s hair looks good!”
Someone wake Adam up please! =p I will always love Taking Back Sunday till the end of time!
where you want to be -- japanese version
live from orensanz
notes from the past
the tell all your friends demo
I know this isn't the same as old TBS but I love it. I know Adam looks different and even sounds a bit different, but this song is still awesome and emo as hell. I have always loved this song. I love this song more than you. As a matter of fact you hate this song compared to how much I love it. I loved this song before I ever even heard it. So ha!
I agree.
+Daniel Dickson How did their best song not make I onto the album? :P
Right!! Thank you.
It's not on Louder Now... It's on the TAYF demo and the Where You Want To Be bonus edition. But you're right it's on the live record.
This is by far the best version I have heard, even topping the one where Adam almost cries!
Listen to the Live in Orensanz version. That version will make you fall to your knees .
@@dannysoto24 That album is actually my all time favorite, but I stand by my statement. I prefer this version, John just adds a little something extra. That isn't to say that version isn't absolutely amazing, this is just what I like a little more.
That being said, I prefer the Orensanz version with all the other songs on that album.
Which performance is that? Where he almost cries? Feel like looking it up...
God we are all getting so old:( lol
And on, and on...
@kingvincedrums Saw him in Southampton, England. Completely agree!
The man is still damn gorgeous.
"it's super old... can we curse? it's super fucking old"
@kingvincedrums yeah i know. at the houston texas show at the house of blues he was more then spot on. they played this song and it was just amazing. every song was amazing
2:25 .. you can still see the emotion in his face
hey adam that was great! here, take a donut.
3:40= chills
Its on Louder Now and the live record
i heard this song for the first time today after listening to TBS for years. its not on any album is it? wheres it from?
It's a B side ☺️, it was never on an official album but it is on a few of their compilation albums and they do it live often! There are a few versions on Spotify too!
Destiny Dodson-Jones thanks for the help 😂😂
Fat or not, shaky voice or whatever, it's the song itself plus the way Adam delivers the song and the fact that a lot of people can relate and make us feel that this song relay those feelings perfectly. I think those are the things that makes this song great.
Fucking awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!
@hurlcan I've said this a million times,but look at any performances before Fred left, Adam was an amazing singer. Combined with his style, he was probably the best frontman I've ever seen.
i wish he would sing the other background vocals at the end.~
Who's from 2019 here?
John at 2.30.smirking at Adam when he missed the note 😅
John makes TBS
is that mj on adams guitar?
Omg adam looks like my therapist the way his hair is pushed back ahhh im not going to be able to go to therapy and not think of adam now lol
Hey who knows what he says in the Elektra version at the very end
was this LA'S KROQ?
Does Adam have a picture of himself on his guitar?
@ThisMomentIsHeated his voice is what makes this band so special.. I dont see you selling a million records..
He doesn't sing it with passion anymore. Now its a song.
2019?
Tbs!
I'll be with you, based on your everything. xD
@silagi9210
Good honesty.. I like the band, but I'm not gonna pretend that sounds good.
what's the tunning?
he s putting lot of feeling.i thought he was goin to cry lol
I don't think the issue is the age as a number persay, they could be 110 for all I care, their music would still be awesome... it's just they seem to have changed so dramatically, and I make emphasis on dramatically.

Great music though, reminds me of bettr dys
Adam is gorgous :')
@ThatDereKid IDK man...look at their performance in Boulder Colorado just for starters, it's all over you tube...Adam doesn't sing 1/3 of his words and he is just constantly out of breath and swinging his mic...best frontman...Cedric Bixler
super old. JUST LIKE ADAM.
Adam never claimed to be a great singer.
Most rock singers have really shaky vocals.
"If it sounds like you,
and it sounds like you mean it.
People will like it."
best version of this song is the live from Orensanz version
cause it's actually good
not on my louder now !
"can we cuss???" >.
nice hair bro
Hey UA-cam haters, have fun. It's the weekend!
Yeah! You should have seen him last night! They played in Milwaukee, WI with Bayside. Adam had long hair and tons of scruff. Still handsome though.
