Shinedown Acoustic Second Chance J&R Music

[@stevensass3933]

I really enjoy it when a band makes the effort to include the backing vocals. In this case they not only included them, but absolutely killed. I don't know why talent like this seems unfashionable in today's music.

[@themeatshield23]

ok, everyone bashing brent smith for this vocal performance, you realize how powerful the vocals are on all of shinedowns songs? youd think with how many gigs they do, his voice tends to be not 100% pretty much constantly, and considering that this was a good vocal performance, not the same as the studio version, but none the less, it was good.

[@shinedownfan1992]

what kind of a person couldnt enjoy great talent like this,seriously this is beutiful!!!

[@TheDarkmaster1818]

This was played at my best friends funeral 3 years ago, it still brings tears to my eyes. RIP Tyler we miss you /3

[@BLopez203]

Those things that the lead singer said are probably the most inspirational things I've ever heard. I love how he said that music in general doesnt care about the color of your skin, the language you speak ect.

[@xmakemebelievex]

Always nice when we find the tune and Brent intro all together ! Thanks for posting !

[@Musicloverlife1]

He's right, but theres is so much more to music than just music. The most beautiful thing about music as a whole, is the way it speaks to you. The memoreies that come with it, thoughts that come into mind after hearing over the radio. The Emotion that blister oyur heart when you hear it. That feeling of vivid, the emotion as it makes the hair on your neck stand on end, weather it's a upbeat song, or if it's that one song that you turned to when your love left you. Music is love. As it should be.

This Speech was one of the greatest speeches in history ;) So sad that only 50k have seen it......"I'm not gonna get all sentimental"

[@RazorXXTreme]

I was feeling depressed, out of nowhere, it's been going on since Monday, but I never knew what was wrong. I heard this speech, and I know why I feel this way, but I'll continue to be depressed for some reason. That speech was gold.

[@ladystrange4769]

Thank you for posting this!!!!!!!!

[@mallgoth1080]

i love there music and love the lead singers voice he is outstanding and amazing, how he hits his notes you all just listen so the singer but there guitar stringing is great and i bet none of you could even get close to the music they make

[@rockerguy2250]

I saw them live and LOVED it

[@k1llaonduty]

just saw them last night at 98 rockfest in tampa. they had technical issues and half of their set had to be played acoustically... no one was complaining, this song was amazing.

[@Biggie-Biggie-E]

best first few lines of any song ever......

[@BorderlandShinedown]

While everybody is jealous of Brent's voice he's out sharing experiences and helping people cope with life. So until you can say you've battled a drug addiction and have been saved by your sons birth shut your selfish mouth.

[@Millyyyy93]

Shut the fuck up idiot.

[@Maya852]

i love wat he said! amazing song!

[@greenorange75]

I wish I can sing like him...

[@Graveyardbaby553]

Me too

[@ladystrange4769]

Btw this song always makes me cry. Every single singer has "off days" or a few notes here n there. So what!?!?!? Makes him real n human n makes me love Shinedown even more esp after I saw Brent do an acoustic show in NJ two years ago. It was almost perfect n he is a wonderful man

[@slpbasketballer9]

@velaydez Just like professional athletes can't play a game every day, singers can't go all-out on vocals every day. Vocal cords are muscles that get fatigued. Singing high notes fatigues them the most. Brent range is amazing. Cut him some slack for having to tone it back once in a while.

[@AvikChatterjee818]

What a great speech in the beginning thats going on my facebook quotes

[@hamncheese3]

this is amazing.

[@reggiedoan2471]

great jam in the beginning !

[@Eyeseen]

Beautiful..

[@ChelleT72]

Very nicely put....I agree

[@zackmusicismylife]

i love his talks before his songs.

[@BioShrillFilms]

TheDarkmaster1818 I am greatly sorry for your loss. R.I.P TYLER

[@michaeljamescox]

Love this!

[@GetSomeTM]

awesome speech

[@jessemiles320]

Damn right... Look at him reppin' that Taylor. Best guitar out there.

[@psychodogstudios]

whoever is saying his vox are less than stellar, you're fucking insane. The tone and control he has over his voice is crazy good. You're shocked because he didn't hit the high note 100%? Damn, listen to the rest of the song, it's incredible! Granted the bground vox are somewhat strange but the singer's voice is wild. Great performance.

[@MusicMakesHappiness]

Goosebumps....

[@badderthanyou]

Love the song. I could do without the backing vocals. There is a video of them in Germany that has no backing vocals.

[@puckdropper27]

this band has a pure sound quality

[@harvickfan82479]

@Musicloverlife1 has to be one of the best comments on youtube

[@puckdropper27]

a band raw is the only way to feel the passion.

[@cabrerascrazy]

he's an amazing vocalist. this was just an off performance. too bad cuz this is an awesome song. but their other live and acoustic performances are breath taking.

[@puckdropper27]

just plain kick ass rock

[@brandon429]

If we were at an art gallery it would be ok to point out pros and cons based on subjective opinion, it doesn't mean we disrespect the artist. I would rather have a kick to the groin than for you not to hit the high octave G for the haleys comet part. Listeners bring some expectation to a performance viewing and you cemented that one in the masses by writing the baddest change Ive heard so its ok to ask you to give me specifically more of that, just my opinion B

[@Raph1321]

Hell No, They are making the song way better with Brent Shinedown 4ever ! !! !

[@albycacco]

i don't get what he says the most beautiful thing about music is......

[@needcee]

few rock bands these days have three vocal harmonys goin... gotta hand it to 'em

[@uareallsheep024]

@Musicloverlife1 your a poet

[@shinedownAx7]

@cooping4life i think eric bass (the other guitarist) adds a side to the vocals. Brent smith could do this just him singing and sound just as good but i like the high voice mixing with brent smiths XD

[@pariani17]

It's weird that no one has yet mentioned that he might have had a cold on that day, or that he had lost his voice...

[@HopeTheThing]

Can someone please figure out the chords Zach is playing for me? D: I can't for the life of me figure them out. -is a beginner and has a hard time looking at it backwards- D:

[@MEnemy87]

Sorry but I can't agree to your thoughts! I saw them @ Rock am Ring 2009 live and many times on live gigs in the internet! I know that he can't implement what the rocords on their CD offer to us! Actually he has a nice voice and also a great recognition value but it's never like in the radio version!^^

[@CanderisOrdo]

His mouth opens up really big, but hey? Whatever works. SHINEDOWN FTW

[@SaintBass5150]

@cooping4life He sings on the album and live. So I mean he is just doing what he always does, besides playing bass. So I mean don't be too rough. Just saying.

[@Jessicashine77]

Don't think I am trying to be hateful all individuals but I am with borderlandshinedown

[@ANNALUVSSIMPLEPLAN]

omg r they twins?

[@silvedrtide14]

@cooping4life i disagree with u saying about the guitarist sing

[@silvedrtide14]

these r words i think of one of best friend sabrina sabrina you r the coolest peron i now hope you do well in life i am so happy i met u nice and innocence em u r like a sister 2 me dam u r one cool chick other ppl dont reallize how awesome u r we r like pees and carrots nothin else to say but hope u like what i said

[@dunker136]

almost famous reference ftw

[@biddyhound]

as much as I love these guys, I don't think he can sing the way he used to when he came out with the older albums. He tries but he still wants to sound good so I think he keeps the insane high notes on the DL

[@DarkLinkAD]

Look up some of there 45 and simple man acoustics, when he feels it, he sings it better.

[@TannerKong]

Not buying an album anytime soon... but I love his music. Maybe the music industry should evolve to the massive data internet community. Just as hollywood should, "theatre release"... lol, release it to anyone plz. Some of us don't like to go to the theater and sit with a bunch of fucking assholes. I'd rather sit with my wife and child and watch a movie, and I'd pay good for it.

[@MrTOMMYLEE6969]

then my opinion and this version would smell the same...

[@capoman1]

Backup singers WAY too loud. There is so much I want to critique about this performance. But I will just say these guys really know how to write a song.

[@oOSignalzOo]

You're intellect is off the charts. Virtual videos actually smelling like shit. Good thinking.

[@Kevsor88]

the guitarist who's singing, fucks every live recording of this song up..

[@MEnemy87]

I know you're right...but he is not able to sing the same way they do in studio! so you can guess that they are supported by computers and vocal stretchers...I think they're cheating on their fans! But that's just my opinion...

[@maryhelenbuchele7342]

No the producer of LAW said on a video that Brent never needed auto tune and never used it. There is a video back with US and Them that he did I Dare you acoustic and nailed the high notes.

[@callala]

why the hell do these guys wear sunglasses? too bad that he can't sing this song live. well, at least not when it comes to the higher notes -.-

[@Thehaleybrooke]

i love this band but this disappointed me a lot :(

[@VicMourahimself]

Ohh my goood this back vocals are ruining the song..dammit..please just play the guitar guys..

[@jakebob7878]

bet he is still more sucessfull than you

[@dwignut]

brett 's painful to listen to

[@Jessicashine77]

Don't think I am trying to be hateful all individuals but I am with borderlandshinedown
