Alkaline Trio- Hell Yes (Live at the Metro)HQ

Hell Yes by Alkaline Trio live at the Metro on Halloween,
October 31st 2002, Chicago IL
Enjoy...
LYRICS:
I gave up on you a long time ago
How can you blame me?
We made plans to meet and you never showed
You kept me waiting
They said everything would work out just fine
They said you'd help me
But as it turns out it was all a lie
And they're off someplace far away laughing at me
You've been there for me one time in my life
But it didn't matter
You came and went so fast all my hope
And faith in you shattered
And now here I sit alone in this room
No one to confide in
You watched all my dreams come apart at the seams
You laughed, you left, you went into hiding
Bless me dark father I have sinned
I've done it before and I'll do it again
Cause it keeps me warm, and makes you smile
Been beneath me all the while
Hell yes
You gave up on me along time ago
I can't say I blame you
I rejected the faith in your holy rays
Is what it comes down to
They said everything would work out just fine
I just went crazy
But I'm better now having a good time
Being selfish, and drunken, and vulgar, and lazy
Bless me dark father I have sinned
I've done it before and I'll do it again
Cause it keeps me warm, and makes you smile
Been beneath me all the while
Bless me dark father I can't win
Without you I'm as good as dead
Cause you keep me warm, you make me smile
You've been on my shoulder all the while
Whispering sweet nothings
Whispering sweet nothings
Whispering sweet nothings
You've been whispering sweet nothings

[@LEEWAY8]

almost every song they played this show is the best version of it

[@danieloconnor77]

Agree - the whole show was re-dubbed in studio though, which IMO takes away some of the magic.

[@dearlyband7715]

Matt's fucked up voice singing the pre-Good Mourning tunes, the way Derek somehow amps up already nimble and quick drumming, Dan's sweet shimmy and harmonizing (I wish his vocals were louder on his songs) but Hell Yes the melodies are changed slightly and they're playing faster it's a beautiful thing

[@tangytom7]

Can't believe Matt didn't do the last few epic 'Hell Yes' screams on the recording. It's awesome!

[@brajkovicivan1]

So nice to see the crowd all in, no one recording, everyone in the moment.

[@garethmair9043]

I remember buying this dvd with one of my first paychecks. Money well spent

[@joshlovesays]

god, the "hell yes" at the end is so perfect.

[@johnnomonno]

Intro is sick. Alkaline Trio are for sure one of the best bands out.

[@treyapache2254]

This was one of the best concerts of my life.

[@samfresno87]

I come back weekly for that “heelllllll yeeessss”

[@katherineaw8574]

This live version is even better than the studio version! I like live renditions in general but this is exceptionally amazing.

[@LampertVictor]

matt's voice is so fucking awesome

[@japaboy360]

If I can see Matt perform with THIS MUCH passion at a concert, I can die happy. God, the way that Matt sings in this performance is out of this world. What an incredible band.

[@sebastianrance632]

[@jasoncoker1625]

🤘

[@sikcris27]

Im pretty sure I was at this show.

[@booner123]

Chubby kid at 4:27, "I had fun once, it was awful".

[@TheDanimatorsChannel]

lmao. Some genius comments take years to be discovered.

[@allie2491]

I was going to turn 1 a few months after this concert lol

[@SOMEFRIEND1]

The guy in the white t-shirt at 1:26 pretty much ruined this dvd for me. Couldnt stop seeing his stupid grin in every song!

[@luiz_4136]

Why they do not scream "Hell Yeeeeeess" in the Studio version?

[@DookieAdz]

lol yea that'd be nice

[@Zantar17]

Is he playing an ESP???

[@floriana.1313]

It's his gpc signature, only few were built.

[@jonwitt2263]

hahah the. girl at 4:27 looks like shes having a bad time at that show. or shes nauseous. how could you look so bored in the front row at that fuckin performance??

[@torand414]

@BrenMan94 I didn't say you were religious, but from the vigor of your comment it definitely sounded like your enjoyment was hindered due to it's religious implications. I am really not sure why you would choose the words you did unless it effected your enjoyment personally. I suppose you could just be vicariously pissed, but normally people don't call people "Fuck tards" unless they are offended or trolling...

[@DookieAdz]

@TrioChick97 No problem and I'v plenty more vids too upload. Btw your name's awesome lol

[@felipemossi]

why skibba changes the lyric?... 'cuz its keeps me save' ...?

[@toledo448]

Felipe Jacomossi cause he can and cause he wants to

[@shrizulu]

Jose Toledo but it’s just a butt pirate u fool!

[@BOG0690]

Drunk again

[@welldonebrainn]

I think he was really suck when they recorded that record. Sounds great though.

[@KCgonewild]

UMMMM this song isn't about religion.. even Matt said it himself

[@torand414]

@BrenMan94 I am sorry if you cannot enjoy their music because of the obvious religious implications; however, the person being a bigot is you if you are going to say "Every major religion" is excluded. Christianity and those that believe in Christ or even monotheism is FAR from every major religion, and the fact that you would say that gives unfortunate insight into your closed-mindedness :(. Also, part of the purpose of art is to question that which others' take for certain...

[@colemimiralte7025]

idk but this song breaks my heart...poor matt :'( but this aint good...hell is worse than u know....

[@Gretchen5446]
