Fred era TBS was peak TBS.

You weren’t their original guitar player, but you were their best and my favorite.

[@TheColorFred]

You, being all nice, makes my day! Thanks

[@Fafafohi]

@@TheColorFred it’s the objective truth, man. You elevated an already amazing band. And thank you for the years of inspiration.

[@thecopycatter]

@@TheColorFred Totally agree with this. For me TBS is hard to listen to without you. 😭

[@clarissaenriquez1305]

Yes 🙌

[@eggfibshdeluxe6160]

I agree. This album was very special and you were a huge part of why.

[@connorjones312]

16 years later Fred still sounds like the record.

[@a1d5]

really fucked me up reading the 16 years part haha we're old

[@shadesofmalice98]

What happened with the video of that song? It was on youtube ..

[@fernandohenriquez]

Defenitly yes

I needed this

[@Niedzdrums]

Who’s here in 2024 after seeing Fred make our dreams come true with playing with TBS at their Christmas show? Fred come back ❤

[@russlmussl]

Bro has still got it!!! Support 100%

[@Foreverlost77]

You're the reason i started listening to taking back Sunday fred.

[@musicc2251]

The only era of Taking Back Sunday where I was a fervent follower was during the Fred Mascherino days. Learned to play guitar to all the songs you were on. It’s safe to say that I can speak for the vast majority of fans who would say we miss you man!

[@drewjonespdx]

I second this!

[@brandoesntsocialise]

This is correct! Louder Now is the album I go to all the time for no reason. Just to jam. And it’s mostly in part to to Mr. Mascherino.. and Mark O’Connell haha I be not but a humble drummer!

[@xfallofmanx]

It isn’t TBS without Fred. I love the band but I firmly believe he was the heart.

[@labbit13ooo80]

same

[@theSUPERmere]

Please do a reunion with this formation..

[@flex_piper]

That last "I got it bad" at the end gives me chills everytime. 🤘👍

[@TheColorFred]

Thank you🙏🙏🙏 I turned off the track for that so it’s just me doing it live.

[@drewjonespdx]

Your voice and this song are permanently imprinted into my brain. I’ve sung this song in my car at least 1000 times and half the times I sing your parts.. I still get the feels every time

[@TheColorFred]

That means alot. Thank you

[@MelissaBackwoods]

Probably my all time favorite “screamer”. He does it with so much style and control.

[@justinkastner]

never realized it was a delay on the guitar in the verses. dope!

[@Oscaracermx]

I know right? I always thought those were just rythmic downstrokes

[@JoshPenalty]

On live performances Fred would manually down stroke the part. It's a delay on the album version. When the band plays live, sometimes they would play a little faster and the delay would not be in sync, that's why it's different live.

[@JeremiahFernandez]

@@joshuasurber9650 that's the thing, they might not be playing to a click at all

[@TheJinx85]

C'mon Fred, step in and clear it up!

[@emmanuelcerna]

Fred did it manually on live performances. You can see it on a lot of old videos of that time

[@takashionaga5127]

Emo is not dead, we just got a lil bit older

[@DamienXavier1828]

Amen. Still got the band tees and skinnies. I’m 25. Lol

[@noname-wi4xe]

Yeah I agree

[@lukeheins123]

That outro scream is one of the most iconic screams ever. Love it

[@anthonysmithmeyer8173]

Every time I hear this song it’s 2004 I’m in boring Economics 101 class and the girl sitting next to me hands me an ear bud. This song is playing. Life was perfect for those 4 minutes

[@TheColorFred]

That sounds amazing! Thanks for listening

[@stonedofarc]

If the original gang gets back together , 2021 is for sure saved

[@travissexsmith5362]

Lead singer is still talking about it lol

[@kylewolfe2256]

Technically the original gang is back together. Taking Back Sunday’s first album doesn’t have Fred or Matt, it has Shaun and John. Eddie left the band, but otherwise it’s 4/5 of the original members. Fred wasn’t an original (although he was great on Where You Want To Be).

[@VivicaGsy]

Funeral For A Friend for back together for some charity gigs in 2019 and it was glorious. I swear Taking Back Sunday could sell out a small tour easily still. All us middle aged slightly chubby emo kids have the disposable income for it now! 😂

[@jaimealvarez9415]

@@kylewolfe2256 technically they're not the original members except for John nolan. Their was another singer, bass was played by jessie Lacey of brand new, Eddie Reyes and a different dummer.

[@kylewolfe2256]

@@jaimealvarez9415 correct, they only put out demos though. I was referencing TAYF.

TBS was in its prime with Fred. Hasn’t been the same since.

[@Jason-jd6ro]

Grew up in small town in Texas. My mom drove me over 50 miles to pick up this cd from FYE. I was 14. My mom and I drove home jamming. One of my favorite memories with my mom. Thanks dude.

[@skyheartsama]

PLEASE DO THIS WITH EVERY TAKING BACK SUNDAY SONG!!! This way I can learn EXACTLY how its supposed to be played

[@jhickox]

Omg I'm shaking after watching this. I have tickets to TBS in August in Ft. Lauderdale, but it's so upsetting Fred won't be there.

[@gmodollas6685]

That yell at the end gives me chills every time. I remember seeing the video of this song premier on Fuse and was blown away.

[@TheColorFred]

Thanks for watching this, and that original premier. Those were some great years

[@moutinhoandroid]

How come I've only found this gem now... 🇧🇷

[@kodyryanmakesmusic]

By far and away my favorite TBS member of all time. Absolutely made Where You Want to Be what it was.

[@TheColorFred]

Much appreciated my friend

[@ippotsk]

I love how your more solid and grounded style of vocals contrasts with Adam's more eccentric timbre and delivery, really made for a super formidable emo vocal tag team. Sounds super cool when you both start screaming and shouting together near the end haha. Thanks for being awesome, Fred!

[@erwanmasco]

Teach us the way you play it, Fred! 🙂

[@michaelbosse7865]

Wow that Scream at last was AMAZING

[@breakalime]

I remember one weekend in high school my friend hosted a party while his parents were out of town. It had gotten to the point where everyone was crashing out for the night but a few of us stayed up and huddled around the television watching Kerrang! TV. Back then Kerrang! was a round-the-clock requests show where you had to dial or text in your request over the phone. I guess no-one else was really up at that time because for what seemed like hours on end all they played was this song followed by 'Right Side of the Bed' by Atreyu. It caused a bit of a schism between the metalheads and emo kids at the party but for that reason this song and the accompanying video will be forever ingrained in my memory!

[@TheColorFred]

Haha, excellent! Thank you for sharing. We went to the Kerrang awards one year and it was epic! But I have to say, there was kind of a schism in the awards audience between the bands as well!

[@abrasivepartyc5416]

Man TBS had the best vocals with the back and forth. Still don’t think anyone’s done it better!

[@elbarto4815]

Really cool to see the guitar up close

One of my comfort songs, I remember watching you guys perform it on Launch when it still existed and fell in love and a year later I'd end up in foster care and group homes and we were never allowed to have stereos or cds and I managed to sneak an alarm clock with a radio and tuned it to the college radio and put it under my pillow and you guys were preforming a concert and this song came on. Ugh that was like 2002, I must've been 11, almost 29 now and still jamming. Love yall, you really helped a lotta folks with your music. ❤

[@brendenbenson8882]

I started listening to this song since I was 13 (2009). At high school, I think I was the only guy who put any Taking Back Sunday songs as my Emo influence while my friends would prefered listen to Alesana. This song especially always in my Nokia Express Music phone as my fav track, back then. Thanks TBS...and Thanks Fred. You're awesome!
