My cousin's uncle's grandfather's niece's daughter's best friend's daughter's boyfriend's brother is friends with someone who went to an Awolnation concert! His name is Ty.
This has got to be the best version, the hardcore screaming goes so much better with this song. Also the instruments make it sound like a post-punk/rock song.
This song would be so hard to play and sing live. He's doing a great job. It would be painful to sing because of the... Half scream(?) that the whole song is sung with in the studio version. I actually find the music in this quite refreshing. Great job AWOLNATION ^^
***** There's actually many different reasons to fly the confederate flag. Most people who do nowadays are flying it because they racist. Most fly it as a big fuck you to the government. It's like a symbol of anti-conformity. It means "I will not give up my values because the man doesn't like them". Which, in the end, is respectable. In my opinion.
***** Exactly I was born and raised in the south and I still live in the south thats why I proudly fly the rebel flag I aint racist I'm glad you posted this comment because you know what your talking about thank you.
Gotta respect an artist who can jump on stage and sing a heavily distorted song without the aid of the computer. He's gonna be expecting criticism, that's all part of the game. He sung it spot on, same as the album version near-enough. Only difference is the post-recording mixing. Raw talent will beat pseudo talent everyday. 10/10
No, he didn't sing it "spot on." It was bad. Have you ever heard of Phil Anselmo? Corey Taylor? They sing heavily distorted songs ON CUE and in tune, without sounding like their voices are going to break in half. This guy was not designed for this music.
This is a one of the greatest love recordings I heard in a long time. This is when Awolnation sounds like a really good band, the studio version is still equal in my opinion.
Andrea Dodd I cant even understand why someone wouldn't be a fan of this version, its amazing. they are haters and dont understand how hard it is to recreate this kind of song. radiohead much? thats a good thing...
You can visibly see how much strain this song takes for him to sing. I do like the studio version better, but the guitar solo in this...damn it sounds nice.
@@martinspear1105 LOL. Really? Ha ha ha ha ha How old are you, child? If you're older than 12 you're probably riding the short bus to school and Mom should take away the computer...
A lot of people seem to hate this version, but I like this much better than the studio version. I grew up in the punk era, when all the polish was taken out of music and you could actually hear the people behind the songs. Modern music bores me because it's all been buffed down to a colorless blob of sound.
I totally agree with you on that one, music is best when it's raw.....it holds onto all of it's raw emotions....music today that is polished and seemingly without flaw is without emotion. Love your definition of today's music.
"the engineer is the man" You mean producer, and no, it's not hard to double vocals and add heavy doses of pitch correction. Listening to the studio version I almost cringe at how extremely obvious the pitch correction is, like they didn't even TRY to hide it
I really love the rough sound he made, even though without autotune it seems like he's hurting his throat and our ears, but this is a crazy song, the singer should sound crazy
Bravissimi! Da mesi che li ascolto e non riesco a trovare nessun artista come loro.. ed è da mesi che ascolto solo loro, aiuto. Ho bisogno di vederli in live. Poi amo quando Aaron fa quello voce roca. Si meritano tutta la fama di questo mondo. Adoro
@@optic80 Yeah and no? Alan does the changes quite well but watch the keyboardist. How far back does "rasp" really go in recorded music? Joplin, Jagger, Stewart, Rogers, McCartney (a long list could follow) sang with "rasp" back in the 60s. And THEY had plenty of American Blues singers from the 40s and earlier to learn / "borrow" from... Ah well, I should just listen and maybe listen again, and celebrate the song and performance for what it is - beautiful and live.
I just wrote this while listening to this song. Sail, Sail away from life from the world itself, Sail into a world beyond the one we live in, Sail to the world in your mind, Sail away and free yourself from all worries and problems, Sail to a place where no one can go except you, Sail to your own private escape your own private world, Sail with your imagination stop thinking for a moment and let yourself be free.
How can you hate this yet love the studio version? Take away the music and he sounds just like this. Yeah, maybe he doesn't sound like an angel but his voice is raw and edgy and some people, including myself, like that.
Yeah, that's because he is. It's unfortunate really. I love this band, but he is only going to last a little longer before needing vocal surgery, assuming he doesn't learn proper technique.
I love the Raw power of the band. The power of the vibe, clear and disguised distortion that prove music can inspire and revive that part of being glad you heard life recorded. Jmo
I really don't know what your problem is, guys. I mean I think it isn't easy to perfom this song live, and of course it sounds different than the studio recorded version. But in my opinion Awolnation did a very good live performance with that. In fact I find it actually better than the studio recorded version. And it's amazing how Aaron Bruno can sing/scream like that, but that's a matter of opinion I guess. (Maybe because his voice remind me a bit of Kurt Cobain's x) )
People are so mean, he did decent considering it's an electronic/pop song. This kind of song isn't meant to be live. I'd like to see any of you shlubs try this and upload it, let's see if you critics can do better.
I love this performance cause:
1:voice from the heart
2: No lip syncing shit
I think the people here just listen pop music but he sing very well and a lot of popstar are not able to do that
Na real, ele só grita e fora do tom ainda. Força demais a voz e desnecessariamente.
and singer resembles Curt Cobain
I've always assumed this song would sound amazing with real instruments and raw vocals. I'm blown away. Thanks, TH-cam for the recommendation.

Give the Live at Columbus version with the solo a listen as well
Check out devil drivers version

this song is so hard to replicate live, awesome job!

+MetalFaceOff hahahahahahahaha , Thug life
Hahaha LOL you got a lot going on there
MetalFaceOff gang gang
Ty? I know him well. :-D
He sounds so much more passionate here than the official music video, definitely my favorite playing of sail
I like the music video more, the beat was way better in the music video and also he hits the high notes better.
@SnipingFromTheShadows Yeah, he's a little off key.. And the kind of edit it out, the raspiness in hos voice.
Holy crap I'm a little late to the party but damn am I blown away. I didn't think this song would be anywhere near this badass live.. great job guys
After listening to this about two dozen times, I had no idea it sucked until I read the comments.
so you have to rely on others for your opinions?
You and everyone think this song is bad because he is singing this live.
I think people are missing the blatant sarcasm in my OP.
I'm loving the guitar and how raw this is, but WTF do I know?
lol, I hear u man.
This has got to be the best version, the hardcore screaming goes so much better with this song. Also the instruments make it sound like a post-punk/rock song.
I think his voice is absolutely amazing
Are you deaf?
@@chrisreznor9764 I’m gonna guess no since he’s commenting about a sound he heard that he heard with his ears.
@@bcc5701 I was ironic, how can you find that voice amazing?
@@chrisreznor9764 lmfao
Hell nah homie ass
This song would be so hard to play and sing live. He's doing a great job. It would be painful to sing because of the... Half scream(?) that the whole song is sung with in the studio version. I actually find the music in this quite refreshing. Great job AWOLNATION ^^
Maybe they are tired of this song....but I love it Every way they play it. Aaron puts emotion into his performances and it gets me every time.
This is AMAZING! I love it! Better than the video. Very haunting and beautiful. I love this band.
No the video was way better, the beat in the video was better and the high notes were better.
I absolutely love this version!! Dont know why you guys are all complaining
Was amazed they sound the same live, that is what makes a legend...
not just a band 💥 🎹 🥁 🎸 💥
It doesnt matter how you sing its why you sing that matters and I personally love his voice!
Very true. But he won't have much of a voice if he keeps singing like that.

The fact that this sounds so "bad" is the reason it sounds so good. I much prefer this version honestly.
I'm an old school hard rocker. this version has soul and ROCKS!
RAW is better-blame it on my ADD baby.
(what a bunch of clueless commenters)
pourquoi si mauvais lol
Agreed! I guess not everyone figured out the complexity of the simplicity.
Dig the raw sound and feel of this version!
this is raw as fuck. Better than the produced version
SHIT ME NOT.....THIS,IS EFFING,AMAZING!!!!!
❤
This is actually pretty awesome... raw edgy and powerful
Aaron, how the hell do you do that with your voice???!!!! I love it so much. You are magic.
This version is DOPE! Really like it.
Excellent baseline and percussion too. Good job Tucson!
This is a one of the greatest love recordings I heard in a long time. This is when Awolnation sounds like a really good band, the studio version is still equal in my opinion.

Yeah, the surrealism is a bit out of the sail lyric but tottally

this is real and extremely awesome.

Yes indeed!!
HELl yeah,it's.... REAL, SOO R.E.A.L

Natural voice effects can cause strain to some people! Great vocal performance, aligned with the song script.

"It's shit on purpose!" - punk music
Jayo Caine Shit is the wrong word. Angsty is more apt but I get what you mean.
Totally agree
He's a better singer than me that's for sure.
awesome song amazing dedication by the lead singer
He's right. This IS how an angel dies.
2019 and still giving me goosebumps.
No autotune or lip sync? Pure talent there ❤️
There needs to be for his vocals
@@Filthyrebel that's how he sings. Nimrod.
@@Filthyrebel You mean that's what you would need to sing this
He missed many notes
He absolutely needs help with live vocals.
You have written a supercool song and performed it in a special way - - - congratulations. I love it!
Guitar tone/playing is so good on this version !!!
Very nice song!
♥ from Republic of Moldova!
Great artists, nice to see some depth and talent in this digital world.
You do know that this is really hard to sing live?
***** not that its hard to sing live, its that the song was heavily edited ;)
Crow Caw it's just a rough performance. he can usually hit the notes. check out other live versions...he kills it in every other one i ahve seen.
***** It's hard to get the sound right so the sound engineer is THE man here.
***** especially when your creaming like him.
"the engineer is the man"
You mean producer, and no, it's not hard to double vocals and add heavy doses of pitch correction. Listening to the studio version I almost cringe at how extremely obvious the pitch correction is, like they didn't even TRY to hide it
Didn't expect that guitar solo. Was surprised how good it sounded. Bruno nailed the vocals on this one, too. Awesome !
Ow bordel, juste magnifique d'entendre cette version sans aucun ajout !! La beauté du réel, avec ses défauts qui font qu'on aime ça ;). Good Job !
This song is a phenomenon!

This band is amazing! This live performance almost sounds like the studio version.
+Gabriel Cabrera шутишь?
I really love the rough sound he made, even though without autotune it seems like he's hurting his throat and our ears, but this is a crazy song, the singer should sound crazy
tears this is ways too good...my face is soaked with wet salt water works of tears...the beautiful voice drove me to tear!
Such a fight I live with it and I understand it. Thank you for giving a small light to us
Great song, great voice, great guitar solo. This one is better than studio recording, more raw and emotional.
I love this song 💜
One of the best live versions
Sounds absolutely AWESOME! !!!
My throat hurts from watching this
0:56
This is really just so Amazing. I prefer a raw and broken sound. Emotion over autotune pleeaaaseeee
Bravissimi! Da mesi che li ascolto e non riesco a trovare nessun artista come loro.. ed è da mesi che ascolto solo loro, aiuto. Ho bisogno di vederli in live. Poi amo quando Aaron fa quello voce roca. Si meritano tutta la fama di questo mondo. Adoro
I have loved watching him/them go from this to where they are now. Big fan.❤❤❤
This awesome. I had no idea he could produce a rasp like that. Btw it's not as damaging as it looks/sounds. Amazing performance
Finally somebody who knows about rasp! Does not hurt when you know how to do it
@@optic80 Yeah and no? Alan does the changes quite well but watch the keyboardist.

I just wrote this while listening to this song. Sail, Sail away from life from the world itself, Sail into a world beyond the one we live in, Sail to the world in your mind, Sail away and free yourself from all worries and problems, Sail to a place where no one can go except you, Sail to your own private escape your own private world, Sail with your imagination stop thinking for a moment and let yourself be free.
Loved it!! Very real, very raw and well done! Nice. .
love this version. he don't need autotune
got my first lapdance on this
That's real love man
I way preferred this version. So much passion. Such heart and desperation.
Coolest thing I have seen for a long time
2:01 that voice break though 😂
perfect..!!
Для Экстрима, это то что надо музон !!! 😉👍👍👍 Молодцы парни!
incredible. love this version.
How can you hate this yet love the studio version? Take away the music and he sounds just like this. Yeah, maybe he doesn't sound like an angel but his voice is raw and edgy and some people, including myself, like that.
primeira musica dele q estou ouvindo e tô amando ♥
muito massa te leva pra longe essa musica
I love that this is so imperfect.
One of my favorite performances ❤️
He sounds like he is hurting his voice
Yeah, that's because he is.
It's unfortunate really. I love this band, but he is only going to last a little longer before needing vocal surgery, assuming he doesn't learn proper technique.
I love this band too but if he sings like that than he won't last very long
he is he need's to sing more and not try so hard were you can't sing
It's obvious the producer put an effect on his voice in the song
It's called screaming... and with the right technique you don't hurt your voice...
U guys r crazy this song is awesome u people do not no what real music is but I do
thinks for this song saved my life.
One of the best versions of one of the best songs ever
People in the comment section are complaining like they’ve never heard any heavy metal 🤘
Like Phillip Anselmo
Isn’t this meavy hetal?
This was amazing. I am always astonished by hours voice. How does he scream/sing like that???
Oops. I meant his.
How can he scream/sing like that? Do you know who Axl Rose is
Michael Jackson sings like this with even more power and emotion.
***** haha
All I have to say is squad deep
His voice is all over the place. That raw quality doesn't come naturally at all.
eargasm!!!!! tysm
0:57 Voice Crack!
Its how he sounds like even in the original
God dammit sounds like he is gonna cough up his vocal cords
Maybe they should've added little distortion to vocals, that's all they needed
Blame it on his ADD baby.
I love the Raw power of the band. The power of the vibe, clear and disguised distortion that prove music can inspire and revive that part of being glad you heard life recorded. Jmo
Wow. Best fucking version of that song period. I like this line up of musicians as well.
The drummer looks like Weird Al and the bassist looks like Ron Swanson in 1970
David McCoul he plays sax and bass. Nice!
I can’t unsee that now!
In his defence. This song is hard to sing live.
In your Defense, you are Very Stupid
In your Defense your Dumb
Hard ? Impossible
In your defense your Stupid
Falling in love with this music.
that was really quite awesome. I love it
Reminds me of grunge music .-.
go home you're drunk
Ты русский ??? )
je pense aussi
I can't imagine how a person called "Sal" (sail) would normally listen to this song
absolutely love this band especially this songSAIL
Been rockin since the 60s. This rocks.
It's definitely a different sound, but I still like the live version.
I really don't know what your problem is, guys. I mean I think it isn't easy to perfom this song live, and of course it sounds different than the studio recorded version. But in my opinion Awolnation did a very good live performance with that. In fact I find it actually better than the studio recorded version.

Satanism?
Thanks. And no, I only like such dark things, you know.
Satans daughter Actually it's not hard to perform at all. Sound engineer is the one who has difficult job here.
Satans daughter don’t stress. This is killer. End of
Good point well made dude
Loved this Version of “Sail”❣️
Fricken Awesome Song!!!
People are so mean, he did decent considering it's an electronic/pop song. This kind of song isn't meant to be live. I'd like to see any of you shlubs try this and upload it, let's see if you critics can do better.
I actually enjoyed the crazy yelling and out of tune singing. It gave the song that much more edge.
Whe the stars are aligned and the gods smiling a song like this gets writtern !
I am speechless. Salute!
