He chews gum because he has a throat condition guys.. Without the menthol , while he is singing his chords would swell up and he wouldn't be able to even talk. So he has to constantly be chewing the strong menthol gum while he preforms. he has LITERALLY told me this in person haha
Is this an internal struggle , a fight for his own survival, the identity, a mental 'illness' relaltive term of course> FOr me, that is what it is, I suffer from lack of oxygen and it cuased me to lose myself, I fought hard , 6 years in fact to regain my identity
i'm just amazed by the way that these "acoustic" versions of their songs still feel metal and powerful despite of using simple classic guitars... *.* BB would rock even with harps and violins xD
One thing i love about Breaking Benjamin's acoustics is that they don't "soften it it", they just play it on an acoustic guitar haha, this band is fucking amazing!
Hate to break this to you but they absolutely do use autotune when playing live and when doing studio recordings. There’s a live show they did with Gavin Rossdale where they covered an Alice In Chains song, and it’s very noticeable. Also, if you listen to the master vocal stems that are on TH-cam you can hear the plug-in Melodyne from Celemony all over them, which is another form of autotune.
@@5urg3x that’s now, Ben’s voice has gotten worse over the years, he’s had a bad lung infection and I believe he smokes but back in the day Ben’s voice used to be amazing
All of these idiots stating that Benjamin uses auto-tune clearly don't understand that rock bands and metal bands don't even have the word(s) in their dictionaries. Benjamin has an array of conditions despite him being an incredibly talented musician and singer with an ostentatious vocal range. This isn't auto-tune, it's beauty, and he's amazing.
Loяd Jiиxx Almost every band, or artist since the introduction of Pitch Correct have used it in studio albums, and that is ok for the sake of correcting parts that aren't "perfect" so the singer doesn't have to do multiple takes (usually in order to save time/money). When Pitch Correct was abused like a red headed step child it became known as auto-tune, it's just Pitch correct to the extreme and usually limited to the key of the song so it sounds robotic. Has Ben used Pitch Correct on albums? Yes, every single one. Is that bad? No. Does that mean he cant sing or isn't talented? No. It's just a studio production tool. And yes both auto-tune and pitch correct can be used in live concerts. So everyone should stop arguing about it and only be mad that it has become an overused gimmick in "pop" music and a sad crutch for "rock". I hope this clears up some things, with that said I hope the new album is good.
This man, his voice, absolutely amazing! This is almost the end of 2022 and it's the very first time I heard this version of this song and now the song feels totally different to me than it used to be during my childhood! I'm so amazed how someone sings live so much identical to the original song
It's not pitch correct, pitch perfect or auto tune at this show. I was there. The only shit on his rack was for guitar. If it sounds weird or 'mechanical' like someone said, the audio was probably loaded mp3, so it'll always have that sound. Benjamin Burnley does do it just like this. The gum is for his throat condition and chord swelling.
Such a distinct vibrato he sounds amazing. To all the idiots sating its autotune, listen to real music and youll understand that this is just pure vocal gold
Not much gives me goosebumps.... This live run at this song makes me hair stand up and instant goosebumps. Talk about real talent , you can watch the passion thru his voice
if you will look closly you'l see that every time he screams or something he sings near the mic and not to the mic for it to sound less loud :) but his a fucking alien anyway his singing is out of this world
I don't know if anyone else picked up on this but his whole band is chewing gum...I mean they can't all have throat issues....unless it's their way of supporting him....which I think is awesome....great job guys
Don’t think he’s using auto tune. But being in a music business class, and being that it’s so common in the industry, it wouldn’t surprise me if there was a slightly softer vocal track under him singing live since his voice sounds a bit under the weather(guess from his vocal infection at this point)
Well, it IS def autotune... but it's just for the record, just watch a crowdvideo of these performances and compare.. But he has one of the best sounding voices i know.. !!!
I just can't with his voice. He has to stop before I pass out from the awesomeness.
His voice makes me light as a feather. That’s how good he is

i knew he had throat problems but its pretty bad ass he told u in person haha

How you know that🤨
that’s honestly so cool
That’s pretty sick. The fact that he told you that in person. Amazinggg

lightsoul8973 they would rock an opera

I miss the old band!!!
Me too
never bored until the end.. i love this song until the end
Ben's natural voice is bad ass no wonder his acoustic sessions rock!
how is he so flawless live. huge inspiration
I love the studio version but the acoustic version hits different it's like I can feel everything straight from the heart
2:50 He pulled off that scream very easily; He's very good!
Do i like Breaking Benjamin? 0:34
I love breaking benjamin
😂😂😂
Dont know
Haha of course 😁🙃
Part of the beauty of BB is the fact that they DONT use Auto Tune. Thats his incredible voice and range. Get over it.
Even in their videos I watch on here not the one just the original I hear no aurotune at all I hear pure vocal talent.
There's just some voice corrections here 'n there... Not much :)
BB kicks tons of ass!!

This band has a very important place in my heart
Damn Bens can hit your soul when he lets those chords rip.... represent from Pennsylvania!

I come back to this every now and then, and every time it's just as amazing
I love Bens vocals on this one. So smooth
You hear that second guitar so much louder pure beauty
Really amazing composition..

This is one of those examples where the live is nearly identical to the recording...ben was on point vocal wise
Awesome band
People aren't used to hearing "singers" not use auto tune. That's where they're saying it here lol.
Ben's too good for that shit
agreed.

Ben and Nick sound really good!

The head bob on point lmao
2021🤩😍👍please don't remove all their videos
I’m going though a very hard time in my life. But I will go on until the end.
Gold
Fucking A man! I think this dude is a alien or something because I can't begin to fathom how he screams that hard and sings so well.
Great song :)
Ive lost my way but i will go on until the end ;)
That was actually a really good performance.
Wow.........
Fucking Awesome !!!!!.........good lord....his voice is soo damn gud.....this is one of my fav songs by the band...!!
if you will look closly you'l see that every time he screams or something he sings near the mic and not to the mic for it to sound less loud :) but his a fucking alien anyway his singing is out of this world
I love this bro xd
he's not distracted by chewing gum,the best!
There are more comments about people saying this is auto tuned than people actually saying this is auto tuned.
IN 2024 BEST SONG
the second dude forgot to plug his mike in lmao bens the shit
+chevy4life869 His mic is plugged in, he's just singing softly to not overshadow ben
he could have a fucking bullhorn and not "overshadow" ben
chevy4life869 true.
If you listen closely enough, you can hear him singing harmony.
I don't know if anyone else picked up on this but his whole band is chewing gum...I mean they can't all have throat issues....unless it's their way of supporting him....which I think is awesome....great job guys
its not autotuned whatsoever, you can hear the pitch difference when he moves from the mic while singing. if it was auto tuned there would be none
2:51 AMAZING SCREAM
nice
💞
How is he so fucking good?..
whoever started the argument that autotune was used, then you obviously don't know what autotune is :/
BREAKING BENJAMIN forever!
ben's voice is amazing, i'd die to see Breaking Benjamin live omfg
other bands rearrange their songs to make them sound soft in the acoustic version. not breaking benjmain. they still rock the shit out ot them.
Don’t think he’s using auto tune. But being in a music business class, and being that it’s so common in the industry, it wouldn’t surprise me if there was a slightly softer vocal track under him singing live since his voice sounds a bit under the weather(guess from his vocal infection at this point)
T_T great
!!! thats legit! he literally turns and is like where the fuck where u? R u apart of this band?
Helal benjamin
anyone watching in 2019?
Imma tell my kids this is Sheldon’s Band
still chewing gum xD love this guy
0:05 Hi Mark :D
Take a listen to the end again. Is he saying "the final fight I win" or "if I don't fight I win" ?????
Dillon Breen the final fight I win
Where can I find this acoustic show? I wanna see full perfomance
0:5 Hi Mark :D
i think this might be where stardog champion formed
Ma bucur :D:D:D:D hehe
It's not auto tune....
No they got back together
Hey bro I think you might have a typo in the title
Well, it IS def autotune... but it's just for the record, just watch a crowdvideo of these performances and compare..
But he has one of the best sounding voices i know.. !!!
so eu de brs vendo antes de acabar 2017?
f**ngly awesome even with his gum
Yeah so Nick and his vocals are superior...just give him a real listen without bias and then draw a logical conclusion
9 people are jealous they weren't there
are u sure?!
Why da faq did Chad leave
Its not auto tune its the shitty video quality putting a slur effect on the audio
Breaking benjamin doesn't have any members but ben
boooa
The auto-tune accusations all over the videos from this show are complete bullshit. People have no idea what they are talking about.
9 people couldn't make it until the end
That's defiantly not autotune
When ben could actually sing
wow really jeez....he must be in constant pain having to keep chewing the gum for every performance
Nope.. Only Ben is Breaking Benjamin now.
Ben fired Aaron and Mark and Chad has left..
Someone turned off ol Nicky's mic lol can't hear him singing shit, unless he sucks that bad, definitely not needed at all.
you are clearly deaf. listen to him singing the harmony
sounds great acoustic but...ben is using auto tune for his voice...
❤
