Last time I saw them, I yelled for them to play it even though they never do. Ian broke his guitar string, and then without hesitation, busted out Daysleeper. It was pretty magical. I may be the only person who's seen it live.
Dath has super uplifting songs and so intensely sad songs. Theyre one of the rare bands who can perfectly capture these two extremes. I just hope the happy songs came after the sad ones. I hope all band members are living happy lives. Theyve brought me so much clarity and love!
i really never know how to put it but this band keeps me alive. my anxiety tears me apart every day but their music can just magically calm me down. i hope they come back some day.
And them not being a band makes me so sad. Makes me wonder what could of became of them and how many songs they haven't made that could make me feel feelings I usually don't feel.
Dear and the headlights will forever be amazing. Amazing lyrics along with music. I very much wish i could say keep up the good work. Too bad they aren't together. At least this way we all will cherish their albums they do have.
I haven't head a band this good in a while, it's nice to hear good music. I've known them for a while and usually I'll go through phases where they're all i listen to. Then i abruptly stop, but the things is that I always end up coming back to them. They're just that amazing
zeek it’s the lead singers new band and I think the drummer or bassist is also from DATH, but there’s nothing quite exactly DATH esque, trust me I wish
swear the emotion the instruments brings is just fucking amazing, and to top off with the lyrics and the story in the lyrics just makes this song by far one of the greatest along with other just not recognized, but i like it like that :)
nice. first time listen here and i came across this from a topshelf records video and to be honest i didn't expect it to be this good. i will give their other songs a listen to later
Talked to the drummer last year at Warped Tour for about an hour about drums and playing in different bands and such. Great guy, pretty sure they're playing again at Warped Tour and pretty sure they'll have more people watching them than last year.
this song holds a special place in my heart. almost killed myself in 2012 and this song was the song i was listening to but i turned my car around so I'm still here but this song speaks to me on so many levels
I have the same reason for being to attached to this song. I was in a very dark place for a few years and this song kept me going. Now that I'm better I still listen to this song because it reminds me of that point in my life and I become so grateful that I was able to overcome that. I am grateful to this song.
Haven't seemed haven't seen happy it's gonna come to me When it does I don't know where I'll keep it at all In my room where I sleep to keep away bad dreams In my heart, I don't know Loneliness takes up all that space And when I'm feeling low I'll take out my check book and buy a new car Oh that sweet distraction, that comfortable discontent, I'm in love Andrea's in the room kicking her shoes off Sing along, singing along Shaking our blues off we sing I've come up with a plan so brilliant Times Square, mid-day Thoughts are directed in every way And so I'll keep my eyes on the billboard ads displayed Kill my heart, no fix it up Oh those sweet distractions, inviting discontent, I'm in love.
Damn sorry luzz85 clicked wrong thumb by mistake.!! X ( . should be plus 4. I did exactly the same was looking for daysleeper by R E M but found this fantastic band by mistake , so glad i did.
Where can I get this? I'm seriously a hard core DATH fan and I really need this song because I only have the two albums and I'm seeing them next month and ahhhh help me! I need this song to listen to when I'm not on the computer hellpppp! :D
Sorry to everyone who has emailed me and messaged me for this song. I am going to be posting a video of this song in the upcoming days with a link to download it. Thanks.

The most gut-wrenching song I've ever heard. God dammit I love it. I'll never forget this band

DominicDeAngelis DOMMY D

Yes!
i really never know how to put it but this band keeps me alive. my anxiety tears me apart every day but their music can just magically calm me down. i hope they come back some day.
I can't believe it's been almost 20 years. One of the best bands ever created.
my soul reeks of this song.
lit fam
And them not being a band makes me so sad. Makes me wonder what could of became of them and how many songs they haven't made that could make me feel feelings I usually don't feel.
Ian and Mark made a new band called “The Gentle Hits”
Not the same as they use to be though .... their lyrics and sound was on a completely different level than most bands during this time.
Dear and the headlights will forever be amazing.
Amazing lyrics along with music.
I very much wish i could say keep up the good work.
Too bad they aren't together. At least this way we all will cherish their albums they do have.
One of my favorite DatH songs. Talk about goosebumps.
This song was squeezed from some legit lemons
I haven't head a band this good in a while, it's nice to hear good music. I've known them for a while and usually I'll go through phases where they're all i listen to. Then i abruptly stop, but the things is that I always end up coming back to them. They're just that amazing
Listening in 2020. Still one of my favorite songs ever. The intensity. 👏👏👏
Listening in 2022, still after all these years.
still pretty good in 2024
Not a day goes by without me listening to DATH.
R.I.P. dear and the headlights. one of my favorite bands of all time. its a shame they broke up.
definition of a rarity. definition of perfection. thanks DATH yet again.
This song gets me every time.
Kill my heart...I'll fix it up
This song just never gets old. It's just so gooood n_n
We miss you Ian. Please make more music.
Pssssst check out The Gentle Hits
@@HabibiSpice The Gentle Hits aren't the same. I need more Dear and The Headlights esque music.
zeek it’s the lead singers new band and I think the drummer or bassist is
also from DATH, but there’s nothing quite exactly DATH esque, trust me I wish
Can't find this anywhere on Spotify! Really annoying. Thanks for posting on here though, love this song.
download and add to local files
absolutely adore this song. love how he comes back and screams.
So raw, not often do you hear a song that feels like this.
swear the emotion the instruments brings is just fucking amazing, and to top off with the lyrics and the story in the lyrics just makes this song by far one of the greatest along with other just not recognized, but i like it like that :)
I've never heard of this band. I stumbled upon I'm Not Crying, You're Not Crying, Are You? and then clicked this. I'm intrigued.
I'M IN LOVE ❤
After all these years.
definitely the one of their best songs.
i love this, listen to it every morning.
Camille Gayle-Olsberg still?
i did too 2005-2007 now it haunts me
I'm so glad I got to see them in concert once, I just wish I could once more now that they're gone
ow now ive gotta put this song on repeat for the next couple of months
So sad that this band broke up, and I never got to see them.
Been listening to this song for 7+ years, so glad I still have it saved because it's just as good now as it was then.
nice. first time listen here and i came across this from a topshelf records video and to be honest i didn't expect it to be this good. i will give their other songs a listen to later
Love this song, definitely one of my favorites from them.
i adore this band and this song. :]
I still need this song
Talked to the drummer last year at Warped Tour for about an hour about drums and playing in different bands and such. Great guy, pretty sure they're playing again at Warped Tour and pretty sure they'll have more people watching them than last year.
She isn't trying to be inspirational, she's just expressing how this bloody good song made her feel.
Still....still my favorite.
This song brings out so many emotions...truly moving
And when I'm feeling low,
I'll take out my chequebook and buy a new car.
Haunting
, Theres nothing that makes my chest feel the way this does.
Wow they're in a different league altogether with most bands out nowadays. Definitely need to catch them on their next tour
Absolutely beautiful.
@StephenJTatum Same here dude. Love Brand New and now I can honestly say I love these guys and this song
I’m in love 🥺🖤
Losing dath taught me what the life of a music listener really is. So glad to have found them.
Wow, what a song! Never heard this before :)
sigh. i wish i could have seen them live before they split. now I'm like a paper bag but the bottoms wet
shalama123 they’re amazing live

Damn I won’t see them live ever again 🥹
Liked.Favorited.And replay for the rest of the day

Yes! Came here from there too.
Beautiful...
WHY CAN'T I FAVORITE ANYTHING, GAWD
Great song =D i've never heard of this bans before but their music is very enjoyable to listen too. It is very relaxing also!
Haven't seemed haven't seen happy it's gonna come to me
When it does I don't know where I'll keep it at all
In my room where
I sleep to keep away bad dreams
In my heart, I don't know
Loneliness takes up all that space
And when I'm feeling low I'll take out my check book and buy a new car
Oh that sweet distraction, that comfortable discontent,
I'm in love
Andrea's in the room kicking her shoes off
Sing along, singing along
Shaking our blues off we sing
I've come up with a plan so brilliant
Times Square, mid-day
Thoughts are directed in every way
And so I'll keep my eyes on the billboard ads displayed
Kill my heart, no fix it up
Oh those sweet distractions, inviting discontent, I'm in love.
this song is absolutly amazing
i will see them tomorrow :D
@thesweetdistractions
They played this when they played at CDU at FSU. Except, only Ian Metzger played the song on acoustic. It was a great show.
2024 came and there it goes..
Every song is legit beautiful.
Love this, nearly as much as skinned knee's and gapped teeth.... About the same damnit
I got goosebumps in the first five seconds.
if you check out their merch page, there's a ton of old demos and stuff available for free download
2022!
you’re amazing for knowing this band jus letting you know that fr
2022!!
Great song!
I love somebody and this song tells of it.

Oh, that sweet distraction
Comfortable discontent, I'm in love
I was there when they played at warped tour 09, but i didnt know who they were and now i wished i did because i will never get to see them play :(

Keep your ears open for Ian's new project, The Gentle Hits. Sound seems vaguely similar, and Ian's voice is just as spectacular as ever.
Damn sorry luzz85 clicked wrong thumb by mistake.!! X ( . should be plus 4. I did exactly the same was looking for daysleeper by R E M but found this fantastic band by mistake , so glad i did.
@andykins118118 you are a hero. And should be rewarded heavily.
@Gdayman5 its an EP....
Oh, those sweet distractions, inviting discontent, I'm in love
YEAH
Thank you sly
@huronwarriors The drummer is my uncle(: just thought I'd tell you haha. He's very talented as is the rest of the band.
who do I need to speak to to get this on Spotify? 🤨
@kailamedeiros
If all else fails, you can download it directly from UA-cam via third-party programs.
@derrickawesome31 so you were the only person at the show??=)
I literally sleep all day so I don’t have to wake up and see how lonely life is .
I'm so sorry.
@@amandalynnblaze9799 it’s okay
@@kyriestone5850 it's actually not though. You matter and deserve to experience all of the amazing things this world and life have to offer.
amazing
I think its their self-titled album, Dear and the Headlights, only because its on the cover twice
i fucking love this song it tears me up.
Where can I get this? I'm seriously a hard core DATH fan and I really need this song because I only have the two albums and I'm seeing them next month and ahhhh help me! I need this song to listen to when I'm not on the computer hellpppp! :D
this song was uploaded on my 14th birthday.
Coincidence? I think not..
Lets hope they get 100,000 Views
Come on People
Dear and the headlights 4 ever @
Not on Spotify
Too deep for spotify to magnify
