Brand New - "Millstone" (Alternate Version) w/ lyrics

[@abdulrahmanselimhamoud4471]

i want them back...

[@greggoat6570]

Dude the different outro and intro is like the best part. I love when Brand New plays with different feedback noises and effects like that (Vices, Bought a Bride, Missing You etc)

[@jamespmailer]

Greg Goat dude like i know its like totally radical its almost like its a completely different song maybe even like a brand new version of the older brand new like alright cowabunga dude

[@trevorares7668]

i guess it is kinda off topic but do anybody know of a good place to watch newly released series online?

[@dukeezra5015]

@Trevor Ares I use flixzone. Just search on google for it :)

[@elishadeshawn2599]

@Duke Ezra Definitely, I've been using FlixZone for since april myself =)

[@trevorares7668]

@Duke Ezra Thank you, I went there and it seems to work :) I really appreciate it !!

Didn't expect to find my old account here lol

[@Anthixy]

I used to be such a burning example, I used to be so original. I used to care, I was being cared for. Made sure I showed it to those that I love. I used to sleep without a single stir, 'Cause I was about my father's work. Well take me out tonight, This ship of fools I'm on will sink. I'm my own stone around my neck, Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give. I used to pray like God was listening. I used to make my parents proud. I was the glue that kept my friends together, Now they don't talk and we don't go out. I used to know the name of every person I'd kissed. Now I've made this bed and I can't fall asleep in it. Well take me out tonight, This ship of fools I'm on will sink. I'm my own stone around my neck, Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give. Throw me that lifeline, This ship of fools I'm on will sink. I'm my own stone around my neck Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give. Never hit the brakes there's no time to save him, He just ran out in the street anybody know his name? I think I recognize him Sure as hell paid for that mistake Whoa. So take me out tonight. This ship of fools I'm on will sink. I'm my own stone around my neck. Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give. To save my life tonight. This ship of fools I'm on will sink I'm my own stone around my neck Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.

I like this version more. Like, a lot more for some reason.

[@Thegodhandz]

Thanks man, Keep digging up jewels like this and ill keep listening! +nowherenothin

[@WTWAK]

It's My own stone for sure

[@BsideArchive]

The beginning of this with the countdown always reminded my of Invisible Sun by The Police...

[@FigmentForever]

I love this version so much. I wish this had been the release on the album.

[@Hans-yo2cq]

The album version is way better lmfao

[@_ryu__jin_]

​@@Hans-yo2cq in your opinion lad*

[@ernestokrapf]

@@_ryu__jin_ nah man, the transition from Sowing Season to Millstone on the album version is so nice

[@ryankennedy6392]

videos using the og lyrics writting by jl himself are fucking awesome: pls do more

[@lorenzodufech]

What is "og" lyrics?

[@jarrodpairgin8724]

@@lorenzodufech og means original. jesse is known to change lyrics from the demos and alt versions to the original.

[@Michele1ELL]

I like the intro and outro a lot! I think jesses voice sounds a little better on the album version though

[@SAMTELLIS4]

They're equally good, just different 🤙🏻

[@waveselle]

best version✨

[@JonahUniverse]

I am the only person on the planet who has ever thought this, I'm sure, but the intro to this version reminds me of the intro to Invisible Sun by The Police.

[@nowherenothin]

bigger and more legible text as demanded.

[@matthoward9763]

Those B-sides tho

[@sparrow6190]

hell yes

[@suspiciousaloysius5599]

Ahh, the old eye test font.

[@planeofimmanence2157]

Very nice 👌🏻

[@aellipsis]

I always thought it was “a mile stone around my neck” now I don’t know which is better.

[@rawrbeez6625]

These are the alternate words.

[@STDealer]

the official song is a mill (pronounced mile) stone around my neck; this version has different lyrics "I'm my own stone around my neck"

[@aellipsis]

STDealer I still hear milestone in this version

[@rawrbeez6625]

Will Stroud STDealer is correct about the alternate lyrics.

[@ok_jilvanei]

Is my own stone in the original version in every lyric site that i know!

[@almostluckyproductions1170]

The music is better in the release version, but the vocals slap harder more in this version than most of the album

[@oblivion97]

Found this on tumbrl

[@blueberrymuffin5418]

A millstone around my neck*

[@dejaentenduu]

Nah. It’s “I’m my own stone around my neck”. It’s a biblical reference

[@FigmentForever]

Do you have the lyric books they released on their final tour too? These are the lyrics from my copy. I got the one for TDAGARIM & Deja Entendu. I wish I’d gotten the others.

[@wolfiedying]

am i able to find the font anywhere online?

[@crazystaples7449]

Kinda linkin park vibes

[@richiepropster4313]

I could have swore the lyric was "a millstone around my neck". It really works either way with a different locus of control. I like this version better regardless of if it is right or not. Is this the "alternative version" or have I been singing it wrong since the CD's release date?

this thing is slathered in pitch correction

[@ernestokrapf]

it's not

[@ernestokrapf]

how can it be pitch corrected if he's out of tune sometimes? lmao

[@jummysea463]

@@ernestokrapf the chorus vocal is pitch corrected

[@nibiru2x410]

It literally isn't.

[@BruuuceWayyyne]

where did this come from?

[@nowherenothin]

+BruuuceWayyyne it was released as a b-side on the 'jesus' single in 2007.

[@BruuuceWayyyne]

+existentialist thanks! never knew this existed before

[@nowherenothin]

+BruuuceWayyyne that's what i'm here for!

[@jayse2811]

i've always been a little bothered by the vocal delivery on this cut. sounds entirely too clean and really unlike anything they've ever released. especially around the lines "i'm my own stone around my neck / be my breath / there's nothing i wouldn't give", it just sounds so off and almost not even like jesse. either way, still a great alternate version. still prefer the album version, but given that this is a b-side version i'm sure the band does too.

[@jshinn123]

I agree. It sounds really odd.

[@alexfraley]

That's because it's entirely clean. There's no reverb or eq or anything applied to the vocal track. It's completely free of distortion and it sounds weird because were used to this raw reverby type sound from him.

[@davidentendu]

this version is better, more raw and natural.

[@jamesporter5468]

Millstone not my own stone

[@WTWAK]

​@alexfraley there's compression and auto tune
