Im a 33 year old grown man and i still jam to this after all these years this brings back those feelings of angst. Its a funny feeling watching the songs we loved as contemporary become pieces of our history.
this makes me want to cry. when he sings "this is me against the world" theres something in his voice that just makes me want to cry in the most beautiful way
Gasping for air, choking on my indecision. Hide me in my room and forget me. I'm sorry, if you want to know the truth. This is me against the world. Is my mother happy? is my father proud? Hide me in my room, but forgive me.
this song man! it gets me, it just gets me, i wanna lay down and cry and just be held, i wish this didn't exist. Its way to perfect, i mean the way he sits there playing, barely singing is so powerful its amazing
I can’t wait to learn this rendition of Yoke. Picked up guitar last month and still struggling, but this one shouldn’t be hard. Thanks Energies for the sesh ‼️‼️
I've had this version on repeat for the past few days, performed. I just love hearing the sadness in his voice and thinking about how much the lyrics probably mean to him, and to the band. It's also the blank expression on his face whilst playing it that got to me, all I can see is sadness. I don't know whether or not he really was, but it really adds to the atmosphere of the performance and helps me feel as though they're performing just for me. Basically, this is my sad song.
It breaks my heart to see such talented musicians calling it quits. I'm crying as I type this. I Wish I Could Stay Here got me through the death of a family member, and a really miserable summer. I'll forever owe these guys. R.I.P Basement.
this was perfect. Sad to see it come to a hiatus right after releasing a tremendous album but it makes me feel nice that they all are pursuing their other goals and I hope when they reunite, that they will have accomplished those goals. Would make it that much sweeter.
I saw them the 19th and it was literally everything. They sound better than the record live & the encore they played this song. Most amazing thing I've ever heard in my life.
Hell fucking yeah. I'm so stoked you were able to get these guys to do a session before they split. I'm glad I got to see them a couple times.. They are gonna be missed :(
I hope they do well whatever they choose to do. All good things come to an end, but luckily a few other members of the band are involved in some of their own musical projects such as the "November Group", a few other members are a part of "Strange Places".
Andrew looks so sad in this video but this version is so beautiful. It broke my heart that they are on hiatus now. Only saw them once in front of a fucked up crowd of 5 people but their show was rad anyway.
looks like a gibson hummingbird copy, so it's probably one of the many lawsuit guitars made in the 80's by companies like ibanez and yamaha. you can't buy them new anymore, but they're usually crawling all over ebay, like this one: www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Yamaha-FG351SB-Acoustic-Guitar-/301290936637?pt=Guitar&hash=item462656d93d
I don't know if it's true but someone told me they'll be back, Bishop wanted to become a teacher after he does they could be back. Although I could be wrong idk. I'm hoping they'll be back.
yo, I tried the tab on ultimate guitar tab, and it said the tuning was drop C# but it sounds too heavy when I play the chords. Anyone know the right tuning, unless I'm just bad or smt lol
Basement were one of THE best bands to grace the ears of people who got to listen to it, "Illuminati" had nothing to do with their break-up or the music they made. It came from living life and the everyday struggle.
Im a 33 year old grown man and i still jam to this after all these years this brings back those feelings of angst. Its a funny feeling watching the songs we loved as contemporary become pieces of our history.
Its an amazing feeling, takes me back to my youth instantly. I hope adult life is going good bro 💕
Feeling this rn
For real man
After years I keep coming back to listen to this beautiful version.
Fucking same
Fact
Yupppp
Same, it takes me back to old, simpler times
Me toooo
That's the way this song was meant to be sung
@Jaden Shaw nope!
@Jaden Shaw fr fr
@@janmichaelportugaleza405 Fr fr
Not really. Even the rythm he sings it in is pretty off
Afraid yall mistaken, vox from the original over this acoustic play, would be the one
It's been 11 years... every now & then I still come back to listen to this classic :')
After so many years, it still hits me in my core. You grow past the darkness but you never forget it entirely. Real art
this makes me want to cry. when he sings "this is me against the world" theres something in his voice that just makes me want to cry in the most beautiful way
2020 and I'm still here
Saw them perform this version in England back in like 2015. Tigers jaw opened up for them. Sick show
An acoustic LP would be the best. Including this song in it.
Alt versions that r acoustic came out recently lmao
Currently learning this song on guitar. This song means so much to me.
Gasping for air, choking on my indecision.
Hide me in my room and forget me.
I'm sorry, if you want to know the truth.
This is me against the world.
Is my mother happy? is my father proud?
Hide me in my room, but forgive me.
This is deep man, I mean, sitting on the stairs next to those decrepit walls. Facing opposite ways. Damn.
Umad?
how are they facing opposite ways you clown, one of them is just sitting behind the other haha
Max Ferrugia I still understand his perspective. Guess i'm a clown too.
this song man! it gets me, it just gets me, i wanna lay down and cry and just be held, i wish this didn't exist. Its way to perfect, i mean the way he sits there playing, barely singing is so powerful its amazing
Gilbert Bate-Charlton second this
this song always makes me cry, it's perfect
the only thing that keeps me grounded on the worst nights
There isn’t a song which describes existence better…. I’m grateful someone feels the same, keep on trucking friends!
This is the best acoustic of any song I’ve ever heard.
AND NOW THEYRE BACK TOGETHER
and now they're back together AGAIN
I can’t wait to learn this rendition of Yoke. Picked up guitar last month and still struggling, but this one shouldn’t be hard. Thanks Energies for the sesh ‼️‼️
Have you learned it? I'm trying to learn it right now as well. I'm hoping you did!
3 years later, hope you kept at it man (:

This is beautiful.
Still amazing as it was 6 years ago.
I still listen to this band everyday. I'll never forget them.
It breaks my heart to see such talented musicians calling it quits. I'm crying as I type this.
I Wish I Could Stay Here got me through the death of a family member, and a really miserable summer. I'll forever owe these guys. R.I.P Basement.
my heart breaks at the thought that i may never, ever see them live.
This will be forever one of my favourite videos ever.
i've listened to this 4x in a row and i'm not done yet
You still not done?
It was a heartfelt thank you that broke my heart into. Gonna miss you lads!
His voice is sooo cool. Gives me feels man xox
this was perfect. Sad to see it come to a hiatus right after releasing a tremendous album but it makes me feel nice that they all are pursuing their other goals and I hope when they reunite, that they will have accomplished those goals. Would make it that much sweeter.
Basement are officially together again c:
this is one of those songs I listen to when I come down off acid and just cry lol
Edgy pop punk 4 lyfe lmao
Tiffany Madrox just came down off like 5 hits and a night in the local nature preserve.

Seeing them on Thursday. I cannot wait.
Yoke, my favourite Basement song.
basement were one of my favorite bands, broke my heart when they called it quits
I feel this song so much bro, wish I couldve seen em live
It's so awesome that you recorded the only time they'll ever play one of their songs on acoustic guitars man you just made history
I saw them the 19th and it was literally everything. They sound better than the record live & the encore they played this song. Most amazing thing I've ever heard in my life.
Hell fucking yeah. I'm so stoked you were able to get these guys to do a session before they split. I'm glad I got to see them a couple times.. They are gonna be missed :(
Can't believe they are coming to Budapest...For such a cheap price !!
I know it's so beautiful!
They never even came to my city. I cry every time I watch a live video or something like this.
This is fantastic! Thank you for making this happen.
Esta cancion me trae recuerdos del 2015 escucharlo mientras cocinabamos en nuestra casita... Jovenes y llenos de energía 💔
Fackin LOVE this band.

Really hope to see you guys on May 12th
Instant goosebumps
I'll never hear anything more perfect
I miss this band so much. Hope they doing well. :)

I hope they do well whatever they choose to do. All good things come to an end, but luckily a few other members of the band are involved in some of their own musical projects such as the "November Group", a few other members are a part of "Strange Places".
Their last show was tonight at the underworld in camden... I was there.
No puedo dejar de escuchar esto
Superb.
this is perfect
This song is crazy good acoustic
Perfect.
ty very much man
Andrew looks so sad in this video but this version is so beautiful. It broke my heart that they are on hiatus now. Only saw them once in front of a fucked up crowd of 5 people but their show was rad anyway.
the feels
saw them at reading they fucking killed it man
saw them at the electric ballroom, camden. i cried
can i get the tabs for the other guitar please not the lead not the guy whos singing the other one i want to play it please i cant find it anywhere
anyone know the chords he plays at "this is me against the world"? if it's in a half step down like i think...
Can someone tell me what model Yamaha he has, thnx
looks like a gibson hummingbird copy, so it's probably one of the many lawsuit guitars made in the 80's by companies like ibanez and yamaha. you can't buy them new anymore, but they're usually crawling all over ebay, like this one: www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Yamaha-FG351SB-Acoustic-Guitar-/301290936637?pt=Guitar&hash=item462656d93d
Thank you man, seems like you know your stuff :)
fucking love this acoustic version. go basement!
Good performance!
They're not calling it quit they're only on hiatus it's a break.
I don't know if it's true but someone told me they'll be back, Bishop wanted to become a teacher after he does they could be back. Although I could be wrong idk. I'm hoping they'll be back.
Im crying
Great acoustic.
Que buena!!
100 thousand views are because of me :)
I wanna cry:'(
If i had one wish it would be that me and fisher would live happily every after.
1/2 step down and low E is on Db. You could play it in Drop D if you don't want to tune every string, and it will be a half step off.
I was a new fan as of October 2012. Anyone know why they decided to split?
great.
yo, I tried the tab on ultimate guitar tab, and it said the tuning was drop C# but it sounds too heavy when I play the chords. Anyone know the right tuning, unless I'm just bad or smt lol
Its just a half step down
@@thalestsv I see, thank you.
Wish i found this alot sooner
God, today's announcement rules.
It truly made my day, I've been waiting for it to happen.
?

Essa musica...
So old but so good
