It's amazing how many Dance Gavin Dance songs are pure gold. I personally could put every Dance Gavin Dance song on shuffle and be totally satisfied musically.
+John Mezzanotte So true man. This is my favorite DGD album and line up. Something about Will screaming and rapping on it as well. I wish these guys would get back together and do another album. (This line up I mean just to clarify. I like Tillian. Feel their sound kinda went back this way... But still doesn't top this at all.) They just mesh so well. Reply
"You always said we'd win the lottery one day,so I wouldn't have to go away. I should've known,that I had it all along. But I didn't know till you were gone." One of my favorite lyrics of all time.
@@dimitrivillalobos702 it was the drugs...not the side project why they switched so much. And the core has always been there and that's the guitar player and mangus cause well they are everything
@@kylevanderwalker8730 i know what it was i never said they switched cause of the side projects. I think u misread what i said. But thanks for ur input. It means so much to me 8 months later 😆
theres just something so special about that chorus, the way it harmonizes together and Kurt's vocals give me chills every time...favorite song of all time.
I love everything Dance Gavin Dance has made, and all of their line ups have been absolutely incredible, but I really like their current line up, I would cry if Jon ever left again, and Tillian is a perfect fit for DGD's sound
I'm listening to this song because I lost my uncle named Carl Barker. He had a very unique voice that was deep yet smooth . He liked sci-fi ,thriller and comedies, he was tall ,built and has golden skin and wavy jet black hair . He loved almost all music including rock/grunge and even metal. He was so diverse and I will miss him dearly . I'm so lucky to have him immortalized in some way ...this song helps.
It’s actually insane how many memories I have listening to this song and dgd. It’s almost as I can remember what I was doing and where I was every time I listen to this song. Some of the best experiences just sitting in a car with headphones.
I will forever listen to dance gavin dance! Going on 3 years listening to this beautiful creation. Only if people knew the memories I've had with this album. I will never forget! I'm just amazed!
This song right here is personal on a whole other level with me. the kooing in Kurt's voice and the chorus bring peace too my ears and all the years and long walks I took with this song.
Coming back to listen to this after hearing the new version with Tilian. It's good, but nothing will top this imo. Kurt just has something that can't be matched
Agreed, I stopped listening to DGD once we run the night came out bc that album was honestly soooooo shitty. Acceptance speech was pretty decent, but I like this DGD (the funky one!) I liked both Johnny and Kurt in the band but Tilian doesn't fit, he should have stayed in Tides Of Man.
This is my favorite song of all time. For some reason the mood, lyrics, and music hit me stronger than any other. I've come back to it for years. I think it's because it gets the message across.
You'd always say we'd win the lottery someday so I wouldn't have to go away, I should have known that I had it all along but I didn't know til you were gone. I used to sing that with my boyfriend all the time. I sadly lost him to a tragic accident in 2013 :( this song gets to me.
@@ashlara1330 alot like birds is where he went for a couple albums, go listen to vanity's fair, a satire of a satire of a satire is tyring, tantrum, well listen to it all but those are the first 3 that came to my head. and what are the odds of me finding a comment on this song from 10 years ago when you posted 12 hours ago.
My buddy used to wear that black shirt on the left at the end all the time at work. I asked him about it one day and discovered DGD and never looked back.
YOU'D ALWAYS SAY WE'D WIN THE LOTTERY SOMEDAY SO I WOULDNT HAVE TO GO AWAY, I SHOULD HAVE KNOW THAT I HAD IT ALL ALONG BUT I DIDNT KNOW TILL YOU WERE GOOOONE.
I guess I still miss you Oh well it's me and you What else should we do But talking's for functioning people I guess I still miss you But talking's for functioning people I guess I still miss you whoaaaa my favorite part of the song i love this song
Totally agree. Each artist has brought their own flavor and spin to DGD and helped the band evolve sonically. For this, I salute all of them, DGD past, present and future. That's what really matters.
Come on guys. Why do we have to compare them. DGD is DGD because it managed to have TWO amazing singers, change their sound, and still be our favorite band the whole time. Kurt and Jonny were both great in the band.
+Tony D'vec Nah he's being a fucking girl about it by listening to DGD as he buries his head into his third tub of vanilla Hagen-Daaz. He's probably watching a Gilmour Girls marathon as we speak
This is fabulous song. I respect Kurt for his contributions to DGD. I love his solo stuff btw. And of course A Lot Like Birds. And of course Shelf Life.
I understand where you're coming from cause I used to feel the exact same way, yet being a very, very big fan of this band I've come to realize that the only way get the best out of their music as a listener is to appreciate all their records for what they are. DGD's a band that intentionally changes their sound every record not because they run out of ideas and can't do any better. Just because that's how progressive and experimental they are. Like I said, my dude, ALL DGD is good DGD.
My friend played this for me about a year ago, and I swear it was From First to Last because of the vocals, but then recognized Will Swan's beautiful guitar playing
I don't understand it but everytime I listen to this song I forget how to breathe, it's just so breathtaking. Had this song on repeat since March 2017.
God, I love these riffs with all my heart and they are some of the most badass things to graze this earth and then it just launches into screaming and all enjoyment that could have been there is sapped. DAMN YOU SCREAMO!! *fist shaking*
dang. the lyrics at 2:47 are tricky. i always thought it was "F*** what you're going through!" and then the rest was kinda unintelligible (for me.) best misheard lyrics yet: what do sore lemons do?
It's amazing how many Dance Gavin Dance songs are pure gold. I personally could put every Dance Gavin Dance song on shuffle and be totally satisfied musically.
+Aryonsen I dig you bro ! Same shit with Billy Talent ahah !
I've been doing that for the past 3 days.

i feel this on a personal level.
This track is so underrated. Kurt-era lyrics are probably my favorite.

Is it just me or does DGD seem like a super underated band
Devon McGrann *laughs in 2006 scene kid*
Star Maynard lol same
I'm glad they're not, there's be a whole lot of normies and it would get looked over and other Dgd listeners would click the same way we do now
Its just you man!
DGD is super overrated. Idk what you're talking about.
This album will always be known as “that one DGD album” that there was just something special about. Can’t describe why.
I'm always hearing people complain about how DGD can't keep a singer.. Am I the only one who likes them all??
Hunter May agreed dude
Nope i love all of them for the albums they were one they dod amazong even with all the switching up and side band projects

is it safe to say this could be one of the best songs ever written?
Its safe to say you dig the backseat
@@raqueld3595 ooooooooooo I see what u did there
No
yes
12 years later and it still brings me to tears.
Will swan is the grooviest guitar player
Indeedy so. lol I wanna hear more of this grooviness on the new album. We haven't heard anything like it since this album. :c
Have you heard it? It's pretty groovy
Flossie Dickey Bounce was amaziiiing. Young Robot was great too. Their new album has groove and is their heaviest one yet!
I agree, I also like the groove on Inspire the Liars
Oh, behave!
I GUESSSS I STILL MISS YOU 🗣
This is the only DGD album I can listen to without skipping a single song
Tilian = best live
Kurt = best lyrics
Jonny = best mullet
Jamie Anderson Jonny = Best singer*
Jonny = Best*
Jon = best lyricist
Will = best best
Jamie Anderson jonny best singer
Mullets make a man.
So much emotions runs through me when i hear this song
Same here
Dance Gavin Dance is a badass band
shit I got somethin else that can run through you
best dgd album in my opinion.
True!
Will L. and Deathstars too
Patrick Wainwright this is still DGD's best album though, in my opinion at least. instant gratification is one of the better albums though for sure
Will L. if John mess participate in this album yes, maybe can be the best
One of the best albums ever written. This whole album is pure musical genius.
I love everything Tilian has done for the band as of late but this will still be me most favorite DgD album.
I love how your picture is a pirate cat and you said 'me favorite album'.
Man keep coming back to this album. It has gotten me through so many hard times in my life.
the bridge at 2:02 is fucking beautifull. I think the technical perfection of dgd is often underated
looks around the room ...... "um no one said dgd is underated ....... soooo " watches dgd finaly get the grammy they deserve
+Tyler Mcgilvery
well if you wanna be a smartass, where is that grammy they supposedly got
I havent made it in craft time yet :p

Amen!
Aged pretty badly
I think this band was 15 years ahead of its time
8 years later and this song still hits hard. Great work guys and continue growing!
This song make mah Hert wholesome
15 years later it still goes hard
I always find myself back here man it's been like 4 years
+Bonnie Alexis i am the same

and now it's been another 4 years...
Yes!

I could listen to these guys all day everyday. They hit every musical desire and nothing sounds the same. Bliss in every chorus and chord!
It’s actually insane how many memories I have listening to this song and dgd. It’s almost as I can remember what I was doing and where I was every time I listen to this song. Some of the best experiences just sitting in a car with headphones.
I am a Tilian-era fan, but goddam this song is one of the best.
they made a version with Tilian and it's good but I prefer Kurt.
I completely agree. I am a Tillian fan all the way but the style of this song just gets me.
I will forever listen to dance gavin dance! Going on 3 years listening to this beautiful creation. Only if people knew the memories I've had with this album. I will never forget! I'm just amazed!
me too man, my favorite band by far. I think dgd is technically very good and also VERY creative. those melodies of swan man..... fucking mindblowing
This song right here is personal on a whole other level with me. the kooing in Kurt's voice and the chorus bring peace too my ears and all the years and long walks I took with this song.
I love Kurt Travis.
Me too!
me too !!! I really really love his voice

You finished the chapter my guy, and it was 10/10 in my mind.
RIP D.G.D. with Kurt :(
i'm so fucking sad and this always manages to bring out the happiness
they are my comfort
You'd always say we'd win the lottery someday so I wouldn't have to go away, I should have known that I had it all along but I didn't know til you were gone. I used to sing that with my boyfriend all the time. I sadly lost him to a tragic accident in 2013 :( this song gets to me.
I'm sorry for your lost.
R.I.P. sorry for your loss :( I cant even imagine.
:0 oh my God... I'm so sorry...
fuckin rip
i scrolled past this and it made me sad. rip to him and bless you :///
Idk their other albums are fuggin fantastic... but Happiness just... is soooo good..
yasssss!
Kurt Travis era was the best era. So much groovy, such little time. :(
:(
Yes :(
So what ended up happening to him? What’s he doing now still music?

Quoted this song in my fb status 8 years ago today, when I was 15 lol. Glad I found it again!
They were my favorite when I was 15 too
My buddy used to wear that black shirt on the left at the end all the time at work. I asked him about it one day and discovered DGD and never looked back.
I miss Kurt

We all mis him. I hope he team up with Zach in some project and create another masterpiece.
Zach helped kurt make his everything is beautiful solo record and kurt also sings on two strawberry girls songs (zachs band)
Eternity Forever now, too. ❤️❤️❤️
da scarecrow which album did Zach help Kurt write?
Kurt will always be my fav lead singer of dgd. I can't even imagine how much he would kill it if he had a chance to do some new songs with them
Last new song with him was Shelf Life unless I'm wrong on that and I love it
Was listening to this song in my most dark times. My god it feels weird to listen to it now.
Embrace it friend! This song rocks and so do you!
Same here!
i love how the rhythm in the intro is panned on opposite sides for both versions of this song
1:34 man Kurt's vocal range is so fucking amusing. Even more amplified by A Lot Like Birds and Royal Coda.
I love it.
"Just because you move your hips, doesn't mean that you exist."
My favorite DGD line of all time
Just because you move your lips doesn't mean that you exist
nice to see the most replayed part is the beginning of the song
Best hook of all time award goes to....
This is my all time favorite song by them. I love Johnny, but this is Kurt's masterpiece.
This song is amazing but it makes me feel sad every time.
I got to see Kurt sing this song this week it was like a dream they had many Lil surprises on the tour.
Happiness was DGD's best album. I mean listen to the whole album! It's so much more progressive then the their other albums.
officially the greatest song i've ever heard, composition-wise
Omfg. Haven't heard this song in like 2 years and I still remember the lyrics
kittyxbear same
This album brings great cheer to me. Always has an always will.
3:00-3:30 the drums and guitar are one in million.. see what I did there. Afterburner is sick but DBM2 still my fav.
God..!!.. how i would love to meet another soul in my life that loves this song/band as much as i have in my fucking time on this planet.
YOU'D ALWAYS SAY WE'D WIN THE LOTTERY SOMEDAY SO I WOULDNT HAVE TO GO AWAY, I SHOULD HAVE KNOW THAT I HAD IT ALL ALONG BUT I DIDNT KNOW TILL YOU WERE GOOOONE.

What else should we do
But talking's for functioning people
I guess I still miss you

Anyone else think both Kurt and Jonny are awesome and love listening to DGD regardless of the album?
Will Swan's screams are so sick.
His rap is fucking sweet on Powder to the People.
Makes me think of Steve Irwin ❤miss that legend man 😢
Here we are 2023 & this is still my preferred comfort music when all is going to hell.
it's 2018 and i still have this on repeat.
I used to have a thing with a girl and I called her Carly barker. I'm over her now but this is still my favorite song because of the memories.
Totally agree. Each artist has brought their own flavor and spin to DGD and helped the band evolve sonically. For this, I salute all of them, DGD past, present and future. That's what really matters.
Kurt was the bomb, so was Johnny.
So is Tilian, just give him a chance :(
MrZooberryJr Tilian sure is a great singer, but his voice is way too feminine for DGD's music, well that is just my opinion.
The auto tune is, not his actual voice, sometimes you can hear his normal singing voice in live performances
@@jurgen6362 what about now?
@@jurgen6362 that's an odd take but honestly it's fine if you think that

RIP Tim. Thank you so much for your amazing works in this record. Such a great loss.
no disrespect but Tim wasn’t even on this album
Oohh, that was actually true. Sorry bout that. Peace!
Every single sound just complements one another so well,
I miss when Will would scream, dude's an overall Beast!
Possibly the best intro ever. EVER.

best misheard lyrics yet: what do sore lemons do?

I kept hearing "What would Johnny do" instead of "While we're driving through" lol, I guess I thought they were making a reference to Johnny Craig
