City And Colour - Save Your Scissors (Live At The Edge)

[@TheseOpenRoads]

Dallas will go down as one of Canada's best singer/songwriters ever

[@calesprague2038]

+Hillsdale Absolutely!

[@thisiskris017]

Uhhhhhhhhhh best songwriters ? You don't have to insult Canada like that

[@TheseOpenRoads]

thisiskris017 Lol.

[@thisiskris017]

Renan Pinheiro Fresh off the boat aren't chya ?

[@Bubby91]

+thisiskris017 he may not be best of best, but how is that an insult? As a modern artist, he speaks with his music in a way few other people of this generation can.

[@gavinforester2076]

As a young kid I would fall asleep to his albums on little gray CD player. My mother would always start it for me. I could not sleep without it. The sound of his angelic voice, the sound of his harmonic guitar, it all fuzed to create something so special for myself and his audience. As I became older I developed an understanding of his lyric, as I started to experience the things he had sung about. His songs provide a sense of security, knowing that Dallas can understand the things I have had to endure,even if he doesn’t know of my existence. Even still as a 16 year old, I listen to his songs to sleep on an Amazon Alexa Dot. Him and his songs will always have a place in my heart. To me he is the best, and always will be. Legends never die, and he truly is a legend in my world. His music is powerful enough to give me the courage to keep on with life. His music that was once only a lullaby to me became something that I can fully understand and cherish as I got older.

[@krisse9906]

My mom would play this song for me when I was little. I’m an adult now and I still love it.

[@kenbrunet6120]

She has good taste!

[@christopher-miles]

it came out when i was in high school and i'm not that old. LOL!

[@Fanofsrv]

In my mind Dallas will go down as one of the greatest song writers of his time!!! his songs hit that perfect spot in your soul that no other songwriter had done for me.

[@calebthomas2345]

Carlos Pena couldn’t have said it better brother. It’s amazing how amazing music can connect us . God bless man

[@calebthomas2345]

*connect us all

[@johnnyregs2378]

Every live performance dallas does blows me away, whether with c&c or AOF, hes the only vocalist that sounds undeniably BETTER live than on a record. It's insane how good his voice is.

[@jeffreyclegg7330]

One of the most talented individuals of our time...

[@assassinaria]

City and Colour defined 2010's Toronto for me. Thank you, brother.

[@TheIskybussiness]

So go on And I will refrain And I'll keep on running this never ending race Maybe next time will be the right time And maybe next time will be your time So save your scissors For someone else's skin My surface is so tough I don't think the blade will dig in Save your strength Save your wasted time There's no way that I want you to be left behind Go on save your scissors Save your scissors So why does it always seem That every time I turn around Somebody falls in love with me This has never been my soul intention And I have never claimed to have patents on such inventions Just save your scissors For someone else's skin My surface is so tough I don't think the blade will dig in Save your strength Save your wasted time There's no way that I want you to be left behind Go on save your scissors Save your scissors There is something that I must confess to you tonight To you tonight And that is I expect nothing less from you tonight From you tonight Go on save your scissors Save your scissors Save your scissors

[@wendyferreira6504]

I'm so glad my son turned me onto this man ❤

[@erickdenis7746]

Chaque notes,chaque parole de cet artiste ,avec une précision chirurgicale,me découpe l'âme à cœur ouvert,me coupe de moi-même et me taille a ma taille! Dallas, tu es l'as de cœur dans ce jeu de rancoeur qu'est la vie,avec toi on ne perd jamais! Puisse ta musique élever chaques individus a dignité d'homme!

[@shanescalise4592]

Literally the only artist I'd rather hear live than recorded

[@theblessedbee7280]

His voice is so beautiful! 😢❤

[@NikNovaMusic]

Oh Canada. Nice lightness in his voice. Great trained head voice.

[@vorpalCortex]

love love love this song. had to pull over first time I heard it. emotional!

[@R4Y2k]

C&C's music is 2nd to none

[@GabrielAlmeida2]

Awesome performance. Dallas is a genius.

[@pharmacymechanic]

I have loved this song for 10+ years but never really understood it til now.

[@R4Y2k]

The great thing with Dallas is that you can watch the same song 4 times in 8 different versions :D I like musicians who are famous already but still avoid to try selling the same song under a new name each and every year.

[@debbiehanisch2099]

Great voice!

[@joemackay5529]

One of my favorites from Dallas.

[@Hi__5]

Love you Dallas! Thanks for All that You Do!

[@killickhunter2902]

This song makes my mornings perfect ❤

[@sammier451]

This is still one of my all time faves

[@wce_fan]

Wow, great version!

[@dang2630]

Beautiful

[@jay.0621]

Dallas Green is the shit!

[@emmaofarrellrealtor]

you are shit

[@jay.0621]

Emma O'Farrell you eat shit!

[@jamesmeade384]

Emma O'Farrell what he means is he's one of the best when he said 'he's the shit'

[@argetect2847]

What kind of wizard tuning allows him to play the lead while ripping through the rhythm?

[@matthewparker1592]

+Arg Etect EBDGCe, it's actually super simple to play when you get your guitar tuned to that. Dallas actually seems to use this tuning a lot.

[@argetect2847]

Thanks for taking the time to send me that. I had already found it, and you're right, super easy little tune. Difficult to get all the little nuances and little variations he throws in there, but the main riff/pattern isn't impossible.

[@GoneGuitaring]

+matthew Parker what other songs use that tuning? that's the only one I know that uses it.

[@indredclddacm7764]

What tuning is "of space & time" in, if I may ask...?

[@eddiechacon5533]

Certainly possible, the prize for winning the Guitar Center songwriter contest was a four song EP with Dallas. Music is like ice cream everyone has favorite flavors. Certainly no one sings like Dallas go see him live.

[@cedricproper5256]

I don't know what to think about this song, but I like it.

[@luishimself2595]

Honestly could relate to this song

[@victoriashort3127]

I just love this man.

[@cutchopweld5717]

Anybody know what guitar that is he's playing? I know he usually plays Martin but IDK what that is! Sounds great!

[@cassandra622]

I'm really starting to like this artist:)

[@kimmymarie1602]

[@jevinday]

Just ridiculous. How do you play such a beautiful song in a open turning? I will pay you in hugs and kisses from my dog if you come to my house and teach me lol

[@dstef87]

Dallas was born to play guitar. 1:44 WTF!?!

[@alixtheprofessionalcatherd6850]

Damn his fingers man! Dude has skills

[@dang9269]

[@avery.hmorrill2125]

[@John_Kealiinohomoku]

[@jamesmeade384]

Is it me or.... He looks a bit like Michael Stype?

[@yustinaaron]

3 people did not save their scissors

[@mitchellrauma5080]

+Justin Roberts xD

[@kingsleyboa1363]

Justin Roberts

[@kingsleyboa1363]

marjohn

[@paolobrighelli1094]

Anyone else thinks he kinda looks like Tim Roth...

[@NikNovaMusic]

The guitar sounds a bit weird. Good voice.

[@BugTrainerCody]

Old news. Like if you agree.

[@benfleming6936]

Is it me or does dallas look so tired and bored recently. After the hurry and the harm i think he may have lost something; maybe passion, maybe he's fine. I just think you can tell in his voice and his eyes that he's just so warn out.

[@WAMMO678]

+ben fleming I'd argue the opposite. Might just be this video because he's played this tune a million times, but lately he's look like he's enjoying himself a bit more to me, maybe since he's more or less in a band again since the new album. Saw him a little under a week ago and he was running around and jumping about and getting into it. Seemed like he adored playing Women. I think he's just really bored of playing all these old songs. The only song off of sometimes he's playing right now is a very heavily modified full band version of hello I'm in Delaware. Not even this or Comin' Home. But I'd say if he wasn't digging it any more he'd give it up.

[@AllWillFail]

he looks drunk here lol

[@chrisrose2767]

He looks like a different person
