Marc Orellana Weirdly this song is 14 years old now. For perspective, calling any Phobia era stuff modern is like calling Alice In Chains’s “Dirt” modern at the time when Diary of Jane was released

@@NikNocturnal WHERE IS ITTTTTTTTTTTTT

[@arielpereira272]

I have seen a lot of covers/tab vids, and after seeing this I can absolutely say that this is the best format ever. The song is sick af, too. How about some afterlife a7x cover? I'd really want to see that and the tabs as some get it wrong and I don't have a very good ear yet to figure it out myself (I've tried it)

[@NikNocturnal]

Glad you dig the format! That's definitely on the to-do list, I just want to get a few other bands/songs out first

[@jmgvjfjhfgkvjnhfmgmk]

Yes, Afterlife is truly good idea

[@xtian9072]

Nik does harder stuff than A7x in my opinion! Use your ear too to learn especially if you’re tryin to dig A7x stuff. You can tell some covers got wrong tabs so it means

[@JackVGM]

@@NikNocturnal Yo Nik you still need to cover Afterlife :P I mean I definitely cant play the solo but I wanna see you do it

[@jontarkovspartan7363]

I totally agree

[@Shodan8285]

Man, that kinda tugged at my heartstrings. I was never all in on Nü Metal like a lot of other people. I longed for standard tuning, complexity, and singing. But, as my choices in the 2000s were limited, ANY Metal was far superior to the musical alternatives of the day. I miss summer nights spent jamming until sun up. Miss the way Nü Metal sent that adrenaline and dopamine surge through you, making you want to move. Miss the chains, the tight brown t-shirts. I miss all that shit. This made me remember just how much.

[@jordanc2616]

One of the best bridges in modern rock history...in my opinion.

[@courtnrysalamone7677]

Dang, this breaking benjamin has some potential. Glad to say i got here before they become big

[@vanya65]

This was their best album by far. Ember doesn't come close to any of the original lineup albums. Albums 1-3 were their best. Dear Agony wasnt bad, but nowhere near as good as 1-3.

[@J.00a]

@@vanya65 Phobia is by far their best. The original lineup despite all the bullshit that went down, they were better suited for the band.

[@vanya65]

@@J.00a i agree 100%

I actually think Dear Agony was better than Phobia

Haven't seen the video and already liked. Would love to see Breaking Benjamin's Breath! If I had to I would put myself right beside you So let me ask you, Would ya like that? Would ya like that? And I don't mind If you say This love is the last time So now I'll ask, Do ya like that? Do ya like that? No! Something's getting in the way Something's just about to break I will try to find my place In the diary of Jane So, tell me How it should be? Try to find out What makes you tick As I lie down Sore and sick Do ya like that, Do ya like that? There's a fine line Between love and hate And I don't mind Just let me say, That I like that, I like that Something's getting in the way Something's just about to break I will try to find my place In the diary of Jane As I burn another page As I look the other way I still try to find my place In the diary of Jane So tell me How it should be? Desperate I will crawl Waiting for so long No love, there's no love Die for anyone What have I become? Something's getting in the way Something's just about to break I will try to find my place In the diary of Jane As I burn another page As I look the other way I still try to find my place In the diary of Jane

Hey Nik! I just wanted to say how much I love your KZbin channel. Your playing is incredibly inspiring, and I always look forward to your content. I was wondering if you offer guitar lessons, either online or in person? I’d love to learn from someone with your skill and passion for music. If so, could you please share details about your availability, rates, or how to get started? Thanks so much for your time, and keep up the amazing work-you have a big fan here!

[@Qevox]

I knew it! Every tab found in youtube says that pitch on 5 in the verse is only on 4th string but I recently tried to play it on 4th and then on 5th and it sound much better. And I was surprised that you didn't play intro on 3rd and 4th :D

[@NikNocturnal]

They play the intro up at the 7th live actually, which is why I played it there :)

[@J.00a]

The song that made me get into Breaking Benjamin. Awesome !

3rd question: do you like that?

Those are the only two songs I've heard from them. Lol. I like their sound for the most part, but the production sounds too digital and manufactured for me. Idk. I would love to hear a raw tone tho.

awesome cover man!! To this day, I always will and always believed this song to be the best modern alternative rock commercial song. It has everything and every instrument is played to perfection. Breaking Benjamin really out done their selves with this one and they know it lol. They try to replicate another song as amazing as this one and nope. Don't get me wrong they come very close and they have amazing tracks but this one, is the true king of its genre. Change my mind.
