There's something intensely romantic about a group of musicians playing a beautiful piece in a small setting, immersed completely in the sound, temperments differing but all eyes focused on the moment. It's one of the aspects that make talented ensemble bands so beautiful.
Odds are this didn't come up as suggested. You came here looking for something. That's how I got here. I still have a broken heart. However, now I know why a broken heart hurts so much.
ArcaneSiren Absolutely. She.s so talented and pretty...like, for real pretty. She doesn.t need all the frilly shit and fake crap. If were into girls i.d have such a mad crush on her. 🍸🍸🍸
The Airborne Toxic Event... Their first acoustic series made them my favorite band. This second is forever immortalizing them as such. Set it in stone, lay the concrete... Utterly awesome band.
Has anyone else noticed that every member of this band is oddly and wonderfully good-looking? Especially Mikel... I simply cannot look at him and not smile, he's gorgeous.
I only found these guys a couple of weeks ago. Melodies within melodies, heart wrenching poetry. . . I'm so in love it actually hurts. Thank you, Airborne. Just, I mean, thank you. Julie
Scott Welch You pretty much nailed how their music is so....deep (for lack of a better word). They just pull out your emotions and no matter how hard you try, they.re gonna come out whether they.re tears (i.e. Some Time Around Midnight, i.ve been on both sides of that story) or sing loud and scream....like Gasoline (been there too). I think they.re one of best bands of their generation. Cheers🍸🍸🍸
I have tried several times to watch the "Some Time Around Midnight" video without tears. Impossible. It rips open 4-year-old wounds every single time. But I don't stop watching it, because I'm apparently an emotional masochist.
Still listening in Late 2021!!! What an outstanding bunch of musicians!!!!! I love this band!! And of course, Anna. An epically beautiful woman!!!! Just so happens to be an amazing musician!!! But yeah, great stuff from the Airborne
Fell in love with this band after first hearing, in fact half way through my first hearing of Come On Out around 10 weeks ago and my love is burning stronger with every passing day.
"I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear I can utter every word you'd ever hope to hear I shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever." So magnificent.
I am so enthralled with this song, melody, countermelody play. There is a beautiful symmetry to the this music which makes me … nothing short of amazed. Starting 2:30 there is swelling in the power of the music, you can hear the whole song just grow into a powerful and emotional moment for when he begins to sing again. Simply breathtaking!
I love this song, but the live version from Walt Disney Concert Hall is so much better! If you haven't heard that one, I suggest you go listen to it right now!
This guys are wonderful live. This song however holds bittersweet memories. I had just came back from the Airborne Toxic Event concert. I met the lead singer briefly and the night was perfect. The next day, I was listening to this song and then I was dumped by the love of my life. This song just touches me in a deep way, it got under my heart just a little bit deeper than before. And I thank this awesome band for that.
I found this song recently, and keep wanting to hear it again. My heart is played and moved with the strumming and picking of these stringed instruments and raw lyrics. I rarely comment on TH-cam, but I did here because I just wanted to say thank you.
Absolutely love this clever, talented and creative band. What they say speaks for itself. But is that all there is to life and love? When the passion of this band meets the requirements and giving (instead of taking) of love...wow, it could explode in a new direction.
Always such a beautiful band to come back around to.... & the string backup just makes it so much better. thank you for saying what I didn't have the words for.
When everything seems like shit in this world (as it does every day), I turn on this video as a reminder that there is beauty, passion, artistry, and a reason to keep slogging forward. I've had many favorite songs, but this is my favorite favorite song.
I am so happy you still do these bombastic videos. I remember finding them the first time in 2009 and it's great to know that some things haven't changed !!
I was watching a rerun of Jay Leno and they were playing. I loved how beautifully poetic the song was and so I had to look them up, and I'm glad I did.
lyrics: I can only say these things to you while you're sleeping. I hear the hum from the wires and the sounds of the morning creeping. I lie awake and pretend, you can hear me. You tell me that you're scared that you're turning into your mother. I feel myself turn into my father. We could lie to each other like they do, and say we're so happy. It's easy when you're young and you still want it so badly. And I feel my heart pounding, And I think I might scream. And I could tell you that you're all I've ever wanted, dear I could utter every word you'd ever hope to hear. I shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever. The night you whisper like a ghost and you look so shaken You're so quiet and small and you tell me you want to be taken. I just never think of you as the kind of girl who would say that... You suddenly seem like some faceless thing in my grasp. Your eyes so wide, your face aglow, It's the face of someone I don't know... I could tell you that you're all I've ever wanted, dear I could utter every word you'd ever hope to hear. I shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever. All I can think is that it must be a kind of Rebellion, To arm your fears like soldiers and slay them... And I can tell you that you're all I've ever wanted dear, Through the din of your breathing while you're sleeping here, You wake and you ask me if I'm gonna be here forever, forever, forever. Your face so twisted and your eyes alight, I wanna tell you I can change you when you cry at night. But I'd be lying. Love is defying.
Totally under appreciated group. I miss 2010 these guys, hey rosetta there was so much hope for music. Now I feel it's dead please guys come back with something
I love that smirk he gives while singing! Once this song is played on the CW in one of their many shows, gossip girls, vampire diaries etc This will have like 5 million views instead of just 66,069
One of my favorite moments of this song, and especially this version is slight alteration of the lyrics from the final chorus: from "I wanna tell you I can change it when you cry at night but I'd be lying" to "I'll be trying" Both convey completely different song ideals with the change of one simple word at the perfect moment. Optimism and pessimism in the same message. It's wonderful. Personally I prefer the optimistic version, heh.
I know it's not viable, but if you guys could come to the UK I would book tickets in a heartbeat.... Your last album is a banger! Keep up the good work. Support from ol' blighty x
I like this interpretation. Mainly because it allows me to listen to this song without thinking of my ex. The relationship was pretty much what you just said.

This song is absolutely amazing. So much... Well I can't explain what exactly, but there's just so much in it. I saw these guys live last week. They were absolutely terrific.
Reminds me of the scene in White Noise, a novel, when Jack finds out secrets his wife kept from him which then changes his life through the course of the book. That makes sense since the lead singer named the band after the second section in the book called The Airborne Toxic Event. Awesome book and band.
There's something intensely romantic about a group of musicians playing a beautiful piece in a small setting, immersed completely in the sound, temperments differing but all eyes focused on the moment. It's one of the aspects that make talented ensemble bands so beautiful.
I agree, they are extraordinary!!!
I saw them at XPN studios in Philadelphia and believe me I experienced the same magic you speak of it will last me a lifetime 💙
OMG you have amazing insight and a beautiful way with words. Do you write?
Odds are this didn't come up as suggested. You came here looking for something. That's how I got here. I still have a broken heart. However, now I know why a broken heart hurts so much.
This band is absolutely brilliant!!! There aren’t words to describe the emotions their music makes you feel!!
Cheers
Anna is so graceful. She brings the elegance and beauty to the band :D
so much agree
ArcaneSiren
Absolutely. She.s so talented and pretty...like, for real pretty. She doesn.t need all the frilly shit and fake crap. If were into girls i.d have such a mad crush on her.
🍸🍸🍸
This song resonates with my soul.
The Airborne Toxic Event... Their first acoustic series made them my favorite band. This second is forever immortalizing them as such. Set it in stone, lay the concrete... Utterly awesome band.
I am totally obsessed with this song. I have to listen to it several times a day!!!!
That girl with the violin is awesome
Not a violin that's a viola.
3 years later u were found dead from madness
Wow, im still listening to this song in 2019. A nice music arrangement and I love the classical music instrument in this song.
Wow, cool story bro
Same 2020
Naim! I'm listening to this in 2022!! I have come back to tell you they are still cool as fuck!!!
Still listening in 2022!!!! Outstanding!!
April 2022.
Have my tix for the House of Blues Cleveland 2 days before my birthday in October.
Hell yeah
Has anyone else noticed that every member of this band is oddly and wonderfully good-looking? Especially Mikel... I simply cannot look at him and not smile, he's gorgeous.
the perfect mix of poetry and musicianship. LOVE! LOVE! LOVE!
One of the greatest bands in the history of music and a very underrated band
I only found these guys a couple of weeks ago. Melodies within melodies, heart wrenching poetry. . . I'm so in love it actually hurts. Thank you, Airborne. Just, I mean, thank you. Julie
Scott Welch watch the acoustic version of INNOCENCE the whole 8:28 is awesome
Scott Welch

Every. Single. Time. Especially after a few drinks. But you just have to see her.
Still listening in Late 2021!!! What an outstanding bunch of musicians!!!!! I love this band!! And of course, Anna. An epically beautiful woman!!!! Just so happens to be an amazing musician!!! But yeah, great stuff from the Airborne
2023 and still loving this!!!!! Astounding musicianship allround!!!
Word!
The violinist is incredible. I love how she is so into the music that she seems like she shuts the entire world off.
What a badass band filled with badass talented people.
ONE OF THE BEST BAND EVER:
Mari Mendez
🍸🍸🍸
Mari Mendez my favorite!!!!
Agreed. Their music is so powerful.
Going to see them in Phoenix in 2022
Man this deserves WAY MORE VIEWS...
Fell in love with this band after first hearing, in fact half way through my first hearing of Come On Out around 10 weeks ago and my love is burning stronger with every passing day.
"I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear
I can utter every word you'd ever hope to hear
I shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever."
So magnificent.
he sings with emotion i love it... this band does great music...
Excellent excellent! :-)
Thanks for the good works all good people involved thanks for the lyrics Michael Vinyard! :-)
"Love is defying"!!! :-)
Love this song. I can't stop listening to it. They're such a great band.
Ever since I found this video I feel compelled to watch it and listen to it several times a day. I just can't get enough of it!!!!!!!!!
ggshGsdhf Z tsycG x g
ggshGsdhf Z tsycG x gtv'
This is going to be on repeat a lot since I found it. Georgeous!
This is one of the most amazing love songs I've heard
Other people should watch this, I am pretty sure I am one million of these views. (This was a separate comment by me.)
I am so enthralled with this song, melody, countermelody play. There is a beautiful symmetry to the this music which makes me … nothing short of amazed. Starting 2:30 there is swelling in the power of the music, you can hear the whole song just grow into a powerful and emotional moment for when he begins to sing again. Simply breathtaking!

Best thing ever!
Uh, no, this one kicks ass!
I lose control of my emotions ever time I listen to this song. This is powerful, meaningful music that has gone way to under appreciated.
100%
Perfection. Nothing I'll ever hear can ever top this, and so I keep coming back.
The same
I fell in love with their first album. Their second album has taken it to another level though. Seriously, wow.
You haven't fully lived until you've heard this live, so thankful I heard them live twice ❣❣
This guys are wonderful live. This song however holds bittersweet memories.
I had just came back from the Airborne Toxic Event concert. I met the lead singer briefly and the night was perfect. The next day, I was listening to this song and then I was dumped by the love of my life. This song just touches me in a deep way, it got under my heart just a little bit deeper than before. And I thank this awesome band for that.
Criminally underrated band. To think Taylor swift is a billionaire and these guys are struggling
Absolutely 💯
Agree
It is the distinct difference between signing that contract with blood or kicking the table over and telling them to fuck off, they ain’t for sale.
Their songs always give me chills.
what an absolute amazing song in all aspects
I will do whatever it takes to get this song to 2 million views this year
I’ll help with that
2 million✅
THIS FREAKING SONG IS AMAZING! Nothing like it out there..
I found this song recently, and keep wanting to hear it again. My heart is played and moved with the strumming and picking of these stringed instruments and raw lyrics. I rarely comment on TH-cam, but I did here because I just wanted to say thank you.
Still the saddest song for me! Gives me chest pains! Love it.
wow.... u guys are awesome..much love from the island of Trinidad...beautiful music😍
This is refreshing. An honest song.
Just went here on a whim and I loved it
Thank you for showing me this song, Nick. I'll be forever grateful.
God I love them so freaking much.
this is probably one of the best songs ever in the history of music
A true musical masterpiece! Brilliant!
Absolutely love this clever, talented and creative band. What they say speaks for itself. But is that all there is to life and love?
When the passion of this band meets the requirements and giving (instead of taking) of love...wow, it could explode in a new direction.
The way this video was shot is absolutely awesome. Kudos to the director.
Best version :D
The verses are so negative but the chorus is so sweet to sing to someone you love
I'm amazed the drummer can do so much with nothing but a snare...
The guy's a beast.
Always such a beautiful band to come back around to.... & the string backup just makes it so much better. thank you for saying what I didn't have the words for.
These bombastic versions of their songs are usually my favorite versions. I wish I could find these versions for sale.
Never fails this song comes up on shuffle when I’m on lunch break and now I’m crying in the breakroom
Rough voice, great music and Anna with her classic beauty. Wow !!
When everything seems like shit in this world (as it does every day), I turn on this video as a reminder that there is beauty, passion, artistry, and a reason to keep slogging forward. I've had many favorite songs, but this is my favorite favorite song.
Just heard of this band.... breaking through the b.s. in music today. Throwing feelings in the form of words onto paper. Outstanding.
These guys are my little slice of heaven everyday. And Anna is my angle =D
You guys have completely outdone yourselves. This is such an amazing, beautiful and powerful piece.
I am so happy you still do these bombastic videos. I remember finding them the first time in 2009 and it's great to know that some things haven't changed !!
I have become such an addict to this song. It's so beautiful.
I was watching a rerun of Jay Leno and they were playing. I loved how beautifully poetic the song was and so I had to look them up, and I'm glad I did.

And I feel my heart pounding,
And I think I might scream.
And I could tell you that you're all I've ever wanted, dear

OH MY GOD!!! WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SONG!!!... congratulations from Colombia
This is a masterpiece without a doubt!
This is hands down still the best song Ever! Love ❤️
I love that smirk he gives while singing!
Once this song is played on the CW in one of their many shows, gossip girls, vampire diaries etc This will have like 5 million views instead of just 66,069
What a masterpiece. Shame it's taken me 10 years to find this one.
Better then than not at all
Can't. Stop. Listening. To. This.
I can listen to a hundred other bands, but like a drug, I just can't get away from them...

His smirk gets me every time :)
Oh my gawd! Hypnotically beautiful.
I am forever listening to this on repeat. Somehow it's the answer to all the change.
Still amazing, still listening 🤘🤘
Okay, this just may be my new favorite song!!!!
Phenomenal. Great song, everything is just so perfect.
These Bombastic video's that the band has done are awesome. I could listen to them for the rest of my life and be happy.
Applause Applause Standing Applause!!! Definitely one of my favorite tracks from their upcoming album.
This is so much better than most of the music out there today
2024 still love this. Anyone else in 2024?
Still here for the 13 year straight. Looking forward to the new album!! Best wishes.
Yep
No
October. Still in love with this!! How DEEP is that bass!!!!????
Yes ❤
I must listen to this several times a day!!!!
This is AMINMAGIFUL. Amazing, incredible, magical and beautiful. Simply - aminmagiful!
You guys are underrated. Jeez. This song touched me. Damn, I'm addicted
When I heard this song, it was love at first listening... That is a love that will never die, this is so good!
I just heard this on the radio yesterday and I'm already hooked. "Sometime Around Midnight" hit me same way. I can't stop listening to this song.
Words from the heart and sounds from the soul, all blending to make true beautiful music. I love it
You are brilliantly real. Thank you.
I know it's not viable, but if you guys could come to the UK I would book tickets in a heartbeat.... Your last album is a banger! Keep up the good work. Support from ol' blighty x

sheer quality, it just keeps flowing, getting totally consumed!
This song is absolutely amazing. So much... Well I can't explain what exactly, but there's just so much in it. I saw these guys live last week. They were absolutely terrific.
Heard them for the first time last night, and loved them! Live at Squamish 2012!!!!!
What a great group ... musical! Really GREAT lyrics WOW ! ! !
This song hits me every time. I can't stay like this, but I feel I can't leave.

yum, just cant stop listening/ seems like an incite to my soul.
SO AWESOME. Bombastic. I love it!
What terrific talent... so much skill and creativity in their ability to write this music. New fan here!
