How the flippin heck do I keep seeing you here man? This is getting too weird. twice already!!! *smacks his head against his keyboard and screams spasticly flapping his arms around and spilling his tea* 🍆 😅😅😅
GameVideosForLife I can't believe he's resorted to music puns. He's turning into some sort of... Monster. You knew I was gonna make that puns, didn't you? You must be... telepathic :3
starset deserves more.. they're getting more known now but i hear from a lot people that they've heard better and i just can't comprehend that. ever since i heard my demons back in like 2014 or smth like that, i've listened to starset more than anything.
Listened to Starset since the first single off their first album dropped. I know they're new, but Starset had become my favorite band of all time. It's more than music. If you think I sound crazy, just listen you will understand
Scott I definitely agree with you on this because I feel the same way. I just got into them when Vessels released. I didn't like it that much when I first heard it but after 10 listens, it finally hit me and it hit me harder than any other album I've heard this year and even the past 3 years. Phenomenal band and phenomenal albums they have released!!👍👍👍😎😂
I definitely know what you mean. There's something about them that makes it more than just a band, more than just music. I don't even know what it is, but it's amazing. I've never followed a band more closely than Starset.
Look up downplay, while Dustin only recently began starset it is not his first foray into music, downplay was his first band and it sounds like old starset, some songs were originally written and performed with downplay such as dark on me or my demons and even carnivore
For me I think it's the lyrics that do it. I can relate (in my own way) to what's being said. And the music that's composed is outstanding! For me, it's like a therapy lesson with good music. Revealing things about myself that I couldn't not previously express or put into words, but they've done that for me... then put it into a poetic form, made it rhyme and added music. It's like my life is now a soundtrack..
I love this, and love Dustin to pieces. He's so smart, and speaks so intelligently, as well as when I met him he was also a super kind, giant goofball.
Starset seriously needs more recognition. Not only do they make amazing songs that have deep meaning and the music videos show a whole different side, Dustin Bates is a space nerd and here we support that. I _highly_ recommend people to listen to them because damn I love their music.
I love listening to Dustin talking through the song here. He's got such a calming voice, and obviously he's smart, so I could listen to him explain his songs all day!
One of the coolest bands with one of the freshest and most progressive sounds in the industry. Easily one of my favorites. Transmissions was a dope album and Vessels is awesome as well. Starset never disappoints. 💯
I never thought about that song in that way. It's was something like "society try to make us like everyone, and when you are not like them you are the monster, the difference, the non accepted".
I am actually glad I found this video. I often end up googling for the meanings of certain songs with mixed results. To have the artist actually explaining what they intended to say with the song was very helpful.
This band is so underrated. I saw them live when they opened for Breaking Benjamin and Seether this past May. I hadn't listened to any of their art until I saw them live. I'm already in love.
I actually had a different idea from what they meant by the sng and stuff. But I Always tend to add my own subject, my own stories to things. SO yeah. could have expected this.
This song pretty much tells how I feel about my father. He abused me all my life, which ended my training to being a US Marine. He got under my skin, in my head, and I didn't make it through boot camp because of him, as well as myself for letting it happen. Before I left for boot camp, he pulled a gun on my mom right in front of me. He's done so much damage to my family and I. He's brought the house down on us, and I'll never forgotten what he did to my family and I. His manipulation, his physical abusive side of which I was the punching bag, and his cruel ways of making my life hell. I know it was a simple construct of lyrics but it connects with how I feel about my father.
@@anxhelovucinaj1576 We are. From where we live to our mindsets. I have plans of attending Police Academy soon. My father is facing charges for separate crimes, but he was found guilty for brandishing for the crime he committed in the prior comment.
In almost every way, this is a breakdown of my last attempt at love. From me finally letting go of the walls and trying to be open, to have a healthy relationship. To being used and neglected, turned into a monster, pathetic and weak. Able to see what went wrong, hindsight is always 20/20. All the things I ignored in favor of chasing the serotonin. You get to that point and you understand the why and the how, but you also know it all comes back on you. There's no one else to blame.
So I know he's not picky about how people relate to his music, but for me this song helped me through the ongoing years of chronic pain with how much I've been cut open and stabbed to try and be fixed. Chronic pain is the monster in my story. And their song Perfect Machine helped me get through my 1.5 hour MRI (was able to listen to them on pandora). Carnivore is another song I relate my pain to. I cannot wait to see them in concert!
They are awesome!! I personally don't think there is one bad song in either one of their albums. Can't wait until the new album coming out in September. I saw them in Indianapolis a year ago I hope they come back soon. Love them!!
Ive noticed, for me, all their songs go into a huge story that keeps going. Something i need ti turn on when i sleep/gong to sleep as its comforting. Probably weird, but i interpret better when half out/hlf awake.
'I don't know what to say.....' is just amazing! Dustin, each if your song are an Echo replay in my head! (if any of you want to then please complete the lyrics if you know which song is from 😉)
My god, HIS VOICE!! The only Genius lyrics video I like and Dustin is a genius himself! I could listen to him forever 🔥🤗 STARSET is so amazing and it's so cool to hear the song meanings!
I love how he's wearing a shirt with Ohio in the word "dope" xD (so unexpected) And now I feel dumb for not knowing they were Ohio-based--makes them even more special! Excited to see them in Cleveland tonight! :)
Oh God Dustin! /*/sob/*/ You have been hurt. /*/sob/*/ You have been hurt by somebody, that much is clear. /*/sob/*/ Who hurt you? /*/sob sob sob/*/ /*/rocking back and forth/*/ Who hurt you, who hurt you, who hurt you, who hurt you?
I always give my own meanings to songs...does anyone think the artist wants it that way or is it bad because it might not be the real meaning the artist intended
hilde105 - Musicic is therapy. Not just for the listener, but for the artist who writes the music as well. Music has gotten me through some pretty tough times in my life, as I'm sure it has for many other people as well. An artists main objective when writing music, is to write songs that people can relate to and interpret in their own way. A lot of song lyrics are purposely written in a way that leaves the meaning open for interpretation by the listener. That's the beauty of music, the same song can have 10 different meanings to 10 different people.
Dustin himself has said that he tries to write the songs so that although he might mean it one way, people can be able to interpret it and give their own meanings to it. There’s nothing wrong with that. It’s something we do to try to connect us more to the music

He reads the lyrics like a freaking narrator i love it
So you're a cod player
A god does'nt need to prove that he can sings better than others..
Oh yeah, agreed 😍
A songwriter is a type of storyteller. So of course he would :)
His singing voice and his normal voice are so different from each other so it's weird hearing him talk.
I know, right? It's like hearing two different people. 0.o
How the flippin heck do I keep seeing you here man? This is getting too weird. twice already!!! *smacks his head against his keyboard and screams spasticly flapping his arms around and spilling his tea* 🍆 😅😅😅
Broooo, we just watch the same cool stuff, maaan. ^^ Oh, geez. Don't hurt yourself. 0.0
Seisia Luxford yeah
Ik... but the way he reads the lyrics is so... relaxing
"It's kinda like...the point of no return."
DUSTIN
I understand that reference 😂🤘
GameVideosForLife I can't believe he's resorted to music puns. He's turning into some sort of... Monster. You knew I was gonna make that puns, didn't you? You must be... telepathic :3
That was actually frickin hilarious XD
GameVideosForLife they tried to get him to stop the puns. He never did, their words would just... Ricochet.
Woof Meow It has begun, hasn't it
His voice is so relaxing
Starset is such a good band this just made me like them 10x more
starset deserves more.. they're getting more known now but i hear from a lot people that they've heard better and i just can't comprehend that. ever since i heard my demons back in like 2014 or smth like that, i've listened to starset more than anything.
ICE IN UR COKE ikr they deserve more
also

I first listened to my demons in 2014 and I've been listening to Starset songs since then.
Exactly, like friends say "I've heard better than them" and I'm like "stfu, it ain't even possible"
Same. I've never listened to anything that could make me feel the way their songs do

Same, I've also met him and it was the best experience EVER
finally an artist that can articulate
Coby Boeder you're smart
almost 80% who been in genius articulate quite well
ItzMaRs DaGahh because he's white? you're pathetic.
christian sullivan very articulate reply.
ItzMaRs DaGahh I concur
I just want to hug him
those who don't know who starset is, I highly recommend you check them out, they are definitely one of the best bands I have heard in a long time
Could recommend me some more :3
Meeker :D seeing them in a few hours looking forward to it
I’ve started to become one of their biggest fans in 2017 💗
I really love them
Ya one of my fav bands!
Yaaaaa
_Give us the instrumentals, Dustin, and no one gets hurt._
RandomAccessMisery agreed
This is one of, if not THE smartest people in the rock scene. A true musical genius imo.
The fact is that he has a huge brain out of music world too
He's a literal rocket scientist and I'm glad
Homie wrote a whole novel based on the transmissions album and is also an electricity engineer.
Yeah, he is, I've met him last month at the Munich show, smartest man alive imo 😊
Nikola Tesla and Albert Einstein were jealous
Starset seriously needs more recognition. Not only do they make amazing songs that have deep meaning and the music videos show a whole different side, Dustin Bates is a space nerd and here we support that.
I _highly_ recommend people to listen to them because damn I love their music.
Dustin's voice is so calming that I want to hear him read stories to me every night while I fall asleep lol. That would be awesome.
I need him to read every audiobook I own
I love listening to Dustin talking through the song here. He's got such a calming voice, and obviously he's smart, so I could listen to him explain his songs all day!
I comeback every once and awhile and man love to hear more from this group and Dustin in anyway or form.
It's weird hearing the song without his high notes
Starset is everything I've ever wanted music to be. Seeing Dustin here and explaining the story behind this song is just pure fulfillment
The bridge of this song is so good.
LCamilo It's pure magical genius.
"Its sort of the *point of no return* "I see what u did there xD
Ash is that u?
I really love starset ❤️ Dusntin He's an incredible composer
This is my absolute favorite song. The chorus lines have so much energy and I love the story behind it.

Makes me sad this video only got 50k views
“Stop looking for monsters under the bed, you are the monster”
Been listening to these guys since 2013
"I was on a rooftop in Venice beach..."
Well then...
YES OMG MORE STARSET PLS!♡
LAWD his voice
He is so freaking creative, smart and attractive. ❤
He is a sweetheart ❤

Man wtf. Me and my gf are going through tough times right now and I just found this?? How is this speaking so deeply to me! Jesus, hits close.
Could listen to him talk all day long, such an amazing voice.
How can no one like the bridge part of this song, it's my favorite of all the songs I have in my phone!

I LOVED ALL YOUR SONGS SO MUCH, STARSET. I LOVE YOUR VOICE SO MUCH IN THE NORMAL OR IN THE SINGING ALTHOUGH THEY ARE DIFFERENT💖💖
This was uploaded on my birthday last year that’s what’s up! Can’t wait to see these guys tonight in Destin!

This is why I love him!
Brilliant song.
That tattoo is so amazing
Seen them twice, probably the best stage show I’ve ever seen.
He had me at “Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein” , which is a great book!
Dustin is awesome
Outstanding interwiew. It is amazing how Dustin explains everything. I felt identificated about all he said. ❤️

Amazing song from an amazing band 🤟🏻

Holy shit, he is a lot like me
Socially awkward (but im probably worse) and loves space
I'm addicted to space

Какой умный мужик. Я от него столько лексики новой узнала, которую не слышала раньше совершенно.
He must have studied a lot to put together a band in this futuristic style
He actually have a doctorate in electrical engineering and I guess he got inspired by it for starset storyline
killed it SciFi based
KNEW IT!
Coming back to watch this after my obsession with them xD
I WAS RIGHT ABOUT THE FRANKENSTEIN REFERENCE YASS
Increible, su voz es tan diferente a cuando canta.
I love much more the song and the band 💙
HOLY CRAP A MODERN DAY PHILOSOPHER :D

My favourite song is either carnivore, richochet or manifest

Just met him two days ago
