@@skywolftheblack9251 nobody asked for your opinion. jordan is my homie hes a good person idk how he was ages ago but hes really redeemed himself and has bounced back..be happy for his growth
@@skywolftheblack9251 they literally didn't when Asd ended it was just jag and his replacements a cover band if you will at that point, jag treated none of them like friends only business partners because thats all he cared about was business. not to mention how hes acting now since the original line up reunion. slapping the ASD name on signals songs passing them off as ASD and before that he kicked everyone off the original page after his signals page didn't blow up and changed the a skylit drive name to signals so it looked like he had more of a following. sure wires was a special album and his time with the band was when they made their most success but we all know where that "true" a skylit drive sound is and its with the original line up considering they were the instrumentalists on the first 4 albums so he can go ahead and slap the name on whatever instrumental he wants in the end...hes just a voice not the true sound. #ogasd #shewatchedthesky
RIP Jordan Blake. No ASD album will ever come close to what you guys captured with “She Watched the Sky.” Atmosphere, lyrics, so much depth. Melodies on top of harsh riffs+breakdowns. Literally set the stage for other bands to emulate which they did. Amazing. Such a shame all the drama with Jag and the rest of ASD before they came back as She Watched the Sky. Rumor has it Blake’s lyrics are what were used for “Wires…” so, yeah. RIP to an absolute legend
This song is a great example of why I will always prefer Jordan Blake's high tenor voice over Jag's. So much emotion and the epic screams while also hitting lots of clean D5s. This song always has reminded me of my favorite Scary Kids Scaring Kids song, 'The Bright Side of Suffering.' Both songs are great examples of pure emotion and epic climaxes.
i thought the screaming was done by other singer but discovered was done by jordan mainly too with additional suport for the other dude which make this EP even more epic
im 37 and this is still on my playlist, the sad thing is... no one likes my music! so i dont get to share it or jam it out loud. P.S. its 2018, maybe its time to give it up......... NEVER!
I am also in my 30's and I checked out your playlist and I LOVE your music. it's exactly what I listen to :-). will never give up post-hardcore and all the music styles that are related to it.
As of june 11th im 40 years old... ive had a love for music that i cant quite understand. That most in my life cant understand. This is one of my favorite all time songs!!!
Im not a thief im a treasure hunter is my fav from them And i understand your plight Others lacking an understanding for my musical taste is my problem too
DAMN I miss those good old post hardcore days! ASD w/ Jordan, Blessthefall w/ Craig, Escape the Fate w/ Ronnie, Saosin w/ Anthony, From First to Last w/ Sonny. I feel so old right now! :(
@@taliesinpotter4097 nope, Jag first appeared on Wires and the concept of breathing. The She Watched the Sky EP was the only release that Jordan was on.
Run, for your life now Don’t you see your princess is gone? Pull your vengeance aside Let’s make it rain blood tonight Collide your sword with mine, I’ll send your soul To the hell where it came from By this I know you’ll never set your eyes On a quest you can’t survive It’s no surprise your head hangs from my hands Your mouth can’t sin or lie Cut through the limbs Stab through the enemies' eyes Any last man will die [x2] She, watching the sky burn oh how it burns Run for the skylines, run for the skylines darling Follow the light of the moon just to stay alive Forgive me For tomorrow If I’m late I’ve died before I wake Cut through the limbs Stab through the enemies' eyes Any last man will die [x2] What’s left for you You, you wanted life I showed you love Conserve protect your life Conserve your life Conserve protect your life Conserve your life Your life is my well being And if it lay in the shadows then so be it But let it be known that this soldier will not rest a day Until he lays in the glamour and the grace of his bride I will not rest one day until my victims blood is shed Up and down the shorelines Up and down the shorelines For God's sake please Don’t you forget me I will wait for you [x2] Race the sun Pray for nothing warm
This song and Drown the City make this one of tbe greatest EPs ever released. RIP Jordan, glad I got to randomly meet you in a mall just by chance years ago. Had no camera or anything for an autograph, all I have is the memory.
It's 2021 now and damn this song is still good, brings back good memories, hope everyone here is having a blast from the past and hopefully this year is better, peace my dudes
No other band sounds remotely close to ASD. Honestly took me a while to like them because they were so unique. Ten mixture of melodic riffs, breakdowns, lyrics etc .. love it
crying bc memories of all the small venues these guys played at before main stages and how fucking great they stayed when they got big time, these guys where my warm up for wrestling tourneys in high school :')
I loved this A Skylit Drive. And I still do. True post hardcore sound with Jordan Blake singing. I had never had more respect for him then when he took the time to watch my old band when no one else would live.
RIP crazy how much this album has on my taste in music, you just dont know how good something you're listening to is until you come back a decade later
Ill be 33 this year. Not a year has gone by since i was 15, that i havent listened to this album at least once. The nistalgia brings a tear to my eyes. Then i just get on here this year, and find out Jordan passed away. From addiction no less. Im 10 months sober now. Ive been using substances since i was 19. This album now hits me harder than it ever did before. RIP Jordan. You were an inspiration and shaped my music taste. A true pioneer who never got the creditbhe deserved..
They did a 15 year anniversary he’s back in the band there’s some dumb legal shit with the name, but if you look up ASD hey nightmare live you’ll see a bunch of videos from recent, and he’s get better each performance
@@straingoods2090 Well shit. I was hoping this was just someone trying to troll me into googling it, but this is legit. RIP Jordan, sorry that the world was so hard on such a great person.

Nah it's not this sounds nothing like hardcore music at all . Look up original post hardcore man it still actually hardcore in it . I like this album a lot but it's emo man
I really underestimated how excited I'd be for this reunion. I remember going to warped after their first release with Jag, but somehow I hadn't heard they'd gotten a new singer or had a new album... I've never been so sad watching a band I liked, cause they played none of these songs. 15 years later and I'm ecstatic
+Corinne Norman i'm far away from their country. but UA-cam give me chance to see them free :p . if i were in their country or your country that would be great :DDD

this is seriously one of the best songs ever they need to listen up
If you like this music, you should check out Moreland The Shooting. Post hardcore with clean vocals and some screams and tasteful breakdowns
there's a lot of stories in the music
One of the greatest post hardcore albums ever made thank you Jordan, RIP.
Rest in peace, Jordan. You'll be dearly missed

What???
Absolutely agree I'm 33 and Almost no one I personally know listens to this genre. I grew up on this and still listen to this 💪
I fell in love with them as soon as I heard them.
DAMN I miss those good old post hardcore days! ASD w/ Jordan, Blessthefall w/ Craig, Escape the Fate w/ Ronnie, Saosin w/ Anthony, From First to Last w/ Sonny. I feel so old right now! :(
This album was jag tho?

Avenged sevenfold w/ The rev, suicide silence w/ Mitch lucker 😭
It's pretty awesome that every single one of these original lineups have reformed except for blessthefall
Pure nostalgia. So many great memories. Damn I miss 2008..
The good old days
2006 and 2007 were one hell of an era for us Jr high and high schoolers.
Run, for your life now
Don’t you see your princess is gone?
Pull your vengeance aside
Let’s make it rain blood tonight
Collide your sword with mine, I’ll send your soul
To the hell where it came from
By this I know you’ll never set your eyes
On a quest you can’t survive
It’s no surprise your head hangs from my hands
Your mouth can’t sin or lie
Cut through the limbs
Stab through the enemies' eyes
Any last man will die
[x2]
She, watching the sky burn oh how it burns
Run for the skylines, run for the skylines darling
Follow the light of the moon just to stay alive
Forgive me
For tomorrow
If I’m late
I’ve died before I wake
Cut through the limbs
Stab through the enemies' eyes
Any last man will die
[x2]
What’s left for you
You, you wanted life
I showed you love
Conserve protect your life
Conserve your life
Conserve protect your life
Conserve your life
Your life is my well being
And if it lay in the shadows then so be it
But let it be known that this soldier will not rest a day
Until he lays in the glamour and the grace of his bride
I will not rest one day until my victims blood is shed
Up and down the shorelines
Up and down the shorelines
For God's sake please
Don’t you forget me
I will wait for you

Thank youuu
Thanks!
Super relatable!
I love it
One of those perfect albums from their old era and, mostly for how this one is going to be the peak for how much Jordan Blake mean for all of us.
Thank you Jordan Blake for this music. We will miss you. 😭
Obrigado, Jordan Blake! Descanse em paz! ❤️🇧🇷
This song and Drown the City make this one of tbe greatest EPs ever released. RIP Jordan, glad I got to randomly meet you in a mall just by chance years ago. Had no camera or anything for an autograph, all I have is the memory.
The feels man.
It's 2021 now and damn this song is still good, brings back good memories, hope everyone here is having a blast from the past and hopefully this year is better, peace my dudes
Theyre back together!
Dude this is taking me back to 11th grade. It's so fun to revisit old favorites and find that you still get plenty of enjoyment listening to them.
RIP to a real one, one of my fav albums ever.
this album was part of a very intense period of my adolescence, and I have a lot of nostalgia, RIP Jordan, thanks
The dynamic of this song is like six songs in one. Now that's what I call value!
Unforgotten.. will listen to this forever!
Theyre back together!
No other band sounds remotely close to ASD. Honestly took me a while to like them because they were so unique. Ten mixture of melodic riffs, breakdowns, lyrics etc .. love it
@smeagol picturesque!!
@smeagol alt metalcore for life
Death Star by Dance Gavin Dance has a similar sound to She watched The Sky tbh.
Man that's really sad I just came back for a quick nostalgia after passing my 30's 😢 RIP Jordan
This was my favorite emo album. I still listen to it till this very day.
Rest In Peace, Jordan Blake, YOU are A Skylit Drive! 💯
They put one hell of a show last week in Malaysia. The greatest gig I ever attend.
Def one of the greatest albums ever!! Just wish Jordan would’ve made more
Now he’s about to
Theyre in the studio as I type this
Woop woop LODI,CA! I use to go to the Empire to watch A Skylit Drive. Sweaty, Loud, Tons of Kids screaming! Loved it.
Alicia Nichole did you ever go to the underground in modesto? That’s where I first heard them. So crazy!
this will always remind me of everything good thats ever come into my life
thank you and rest easy Jordan.
crying bc memories of all the small venues these guys played at before main stages and how fucking great they stayed when they got big time, these guys where my warm up for wrestling tourneys in high school :')
Ryan G yesss I saw them at small local show in Modesto when I was 14/15 and fell in love with them
Post-hardcore is the best genre of music that has ever existed.
I loved this A Skylit Drive. And I still do. True post hardcore sound with Jordan Blake singing. I had never had more respect for him then when he took the time to watch my old band when no one else would live.
Now I'm stopping by, to pay respects to one of the best albums ever written, and one of the best vocalists to ever do it.. RIP Jordan
I absolutely love the piano at the end
Kyle is so talented.
RIP
crazy how much this album has on my taste in music, you just dont know how good something you're listening to is until you come back a decade later
Saw ASD with Benjamin live... So excited to see them again with Jordan for the first time. Hope to see them multi state.
Ill be 33 this year.

yea its pretty hard. I tried it several times few years back.
Tips don't put closer the mic instead practice it far away, and there you go high notes

Collide your sword with mine
I'll send your soul
To the hell where, it came from
By this I know you'll never set your eyes
On a quest you can't survive
It's no surprise
Your head hangs from my hand
Your mouth can't sin nor lie
Cut through the limbs
Stab through the enemies eyes
Any last man will die
Cut through the limbs
Stab through the enemies eyes
Any last man will die

Run for the skylines, run for the skylines, darling

Follow the light of the moon just to stay
Alive...

I remember the movie Texas Chainsaw Masacre..... I love A Skylit Drive
this was the very first a skylit drive song i had ever listened too, and today it's still one of my all time favourite songs :)
Fav band forever ♡ 2019 & still a great song
This dude's clean singing is addicting
2020 and still feeling this
I always thought this song should be turned into a video game
