"I'm so thrilled to finally be failing" is one of my favorite lyrics ever. I love the idea of being so obsessed with perfection that you're literally relieved to learn that nobody is perfect.
I just saw them 2 months ago - they still sound amazing live :) One of the best concerts I've been to...even if there was a lot of 40-something tie dye going on in the audience.
This is awesome. I love the concept here. Ed doing solo acoustic from his bathroom somewhere in Canada, (and all this time I thought they lived in igloo's). No fancy mics, no fancy camera's, just what appears to be Ed from his bathroom with a laptop, and an acoustic....brilliant!!!
I just wanted the BNL folks to know that we apreciate them taking the time to record these "Bathroom Sessions" for youtube.... you guys are great! please don't mind the fools looking for a place to vent... they only don it here because they are loving to listen to your tunes... keep up the good work fellas... Doc
Both new albums are great. BNL songwriting at its best. These videos really show how talented these guys really are. Check out the new albums. You're missing some wonderful music.
@RectalDiscourse If you mean the two chords he plays during when he sings "can't get anything figured out" I believe it's just a C#m chord, then he just moves the root note to the 5th fret of the low E string, so it would be (low e to high e) E-5 A-x D-6 G-6 B-5 e-0 Hope that helps.
:D this is awesome. i love it sooooo much i'm 15 in HS and this song makes me think about how alot of us teenagers really feel. THANKYOU BNL!!!!!!!! ILOVE U GUYS!
What other artists care about their fans enough to record and post videos like this? What other artists are able to sound this good singing in a bathroom? BNL definitely one of the best bands out there :)
@randalthor12345 Relative to the capo, its simply a Dsus2 or D5. xx0230 He just covers the D string with his finger, making it look like hes playing it.
the acoustics in a bathroom are epic.. If you have a guitar, play it in the bedroom, then go sit on your toilet(seat down) and play it. You'll notice a great difference. Bathrooms are good like that
@ThatTolkenBrownGuy A friend of mine tabbed this one out for me a few weeks ago. I just posted it to Ultimate Guitar, and once it is processed, I'll get you the link.
1st off.. That guy said asshat... nice... 2nd. This shit is cool. nice that they put this up here. though the internet is the down fall of music. This is something good comeing from it.
ok i have a MAJOR problem. i have a song stuck in my head and cant fig it outttt!! it has the verrrry begin music to this song in it. and its a guy or guy band. i figured it was this band or sumthin similar so can u guys or ne viewers help me if they kno at all wat im talkin about?! i kno its so hard to give ne clues but i only got so much in my head to kno it by. all i kno is " CUZ i look a-round......ohhhhh to meeeee"

these guys can write some lyrics! And how he just breezes through some really deep ones too
There songs feel so simple, but there are many levels to them.
@@MrTombombodil Simple is difficult.
I rediscovered BNL after a few year hiatus right at a time where my life was kind of falling apart and this song was almost a lifeline. Love BNL.
This is a great presentation of the sincereity of the song. Wow. I'll never hear the album piece the same way. Thanks, Ed.
These are a great soundtrack for my own personal bathroom sessions.
I just saw them 2 months ago - they still sound amazing live :) One of the best concerts I've been to...even if there was a lot of 40-something tie dye going on in the audience.
This was like my theme song in highschool!! I wouldn't have survived it without these guys.
This is my theme song now! I'm going through high school now and this is the band I listen to everyday.
xXxDjShamblesxXx Going through college at the moment, and this pretty much sums up everything.
Wow you sound just like the singer from Barenaked Ladies!
Alex Robak (Because he is)
The joke
Your head

by far one of my favorite songs from this band!
two of my favorite bands of all time Barenaked Ladies and Dave Matthews Band
I just wanted the BNL folks to know that we apreciate them taking the time to record these "Bathroom Sessions" for youtube....
you guys are great!
please don't mind the fools looking for a place to vent... they only don it here because they are loving to listen to your tunes...
keep up the good work fellas...

One of my favorite songs EVER! and a great version of it! Just saw it live last week. BNL for the win!

Love the lyrics on this song, one of my favourite BNL tracks.
I love the bathroom sessions. and i like this particular song lots :D thanks for posting this!
Some of the songs that they keep on signing in these bathroom sessions are even better than the the originals!
Both new albums are great. BNL songwriting at its best. These videos really show how talented these guys really are. Check out the new albums. You're missing some wonderful music.
this is why i will always be a fan. thanks...

This is great man. Can't get enough of it. Awesome.
Your good enough to be in a band.Loved this.
Guitar sounds amazing!
yeyaahh!! one of my favorite songs ever...i love the barenaked ladies.
@RectalDiscourse If you mean the two chords he plays during when he sings "can't get anything figured out" I believe it's just a C#m chord, then he just moves the root note to the 5th fret of the low E string, so it would be (low e to high e)
E-5
A-x
D-6
G-6
B-5
e-0
Hope that helps.
Love the lyrics in this song
awesome....spent a lot of my spare time learning most of these tunes on my acoustic
The whole thing is amazing.
You're playing it wrong and sound nothing like the singer... Sarcasm. Sounds amaZing Ed. You were always my favorite vocalist. :)
Lol I remember the first time I heard this when I was 13 and I just said, "This is my theme song."
It totally still is. Thanks BNL
:D this is awesome. i love it sooooo much i'm 15 in HS and this song makes me think about how alot of us teenagers really feel. THANKYOU BNL!!!!!!!! ILOVE U GUYS!
Man, this is my theme song...
You guys should make a Bathroom Sessions album. That'd sound so good.
Just shows how influential their music is
You rock awesome tune, im sorry i forgot about you my fellow canadians:(
BNLs=best band ever
What other artists care about their fans enough to record and post videos like this? What other artists are able to sound this good singing in a bathroom?
BNL definitely one of the best bands out there :)
I love this song! 5 stars.
@randalthor12345
Relative to the capo, its simply a Dsus2 or D5.
xx0230
He just covers the D string with his finger, making it look like hes playing it.
Still listening in 2023
Had to leave a new comment after over a year. Best BNL song.
Thanks for sharing, Ed. A great song will always pass the "played in the shitter" test. Really enjoyed it!
Love this video
& love the song. I can't find it anywhere though D:
): this is an amazing song i miss the good ol' days
Great Cover Ed:)
@BabyBrandee i am pretty sure you can find it on the bareneked ladies greatest hits album - but i am not positive
YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!!! AHHHHH
He is such an amazing musician
I just love u for all that you are.. Your voice is amazing!!
@SuperGosen4 They still do! Saw them last night
indeed... absolutely great.
i looovee this!
im glad that this is the only band on my ipod
Love it!!!
Pure brilliance love it
Excellent!
This song rocks I'm wondering why the other address didn't have this song on there.
the acoustics in a bathroom are epic.. If you have a guitar, play it in the bedroom, then go sit on your toilet(seat down) and play it. You'll notice a great difference. Bathrooms are good like that
cool bathroom,
pretty cool song too.
@ThatTolkenBrownGuy A friend of mine tabbed this one out for me a few weeks ago. I just posted it to Ultimate Guitar, and once it is processed, I'll get you the link.
This is now my favorite BNL song!!!!!!!!!!!
Ed--you should do a Bathroom Sessions cd
@eope111 I think what he/she is saying is that if the person (or group) who composed the song plays it, it's performing the song and not covering it.
I want these chords.... Such an amazing song.
i believe it is, but im not sure exactly. ive been wondering that one too
holy shit your my new fav person!
Is that a presentation series Taylor?
definitely my favorite BNL song
my daughter & I sing this driving to school :)
i cant find tabs or tutorials for this anywhere uuuuuuuuuuuuuggggggggggggg
You could always just capo the 2nd fret (like Ed does in the video) and then play an E shape then an F shape to get your F# and B chords.
does anyone know all they're albums?, i only have 2
Anybody know the second to last chord he's playing during the chorus? Is it a variation of a C?
This song describes my life to a T. Forever love!
@CameramaDingDang the albums not even 10 years old yet, almost, but not quite. if it is it's just over... not that it really matters
Ed's amazing
This was one of the few bands that sounded good live
Maybe my favourite BNL song.... Just love is soo much!
Damn!!!! Wow!
Dude i love him he is my hero, my idol, and the #1 person i would like to meet.
anyone got tabs for this song on acoustic?
@CynicalBlackRaven13 Are you trying to figure out how to play the song?
Greeeeat song
well said
1st off.. That guy said asshat... nice...
2nd. This shit is cool. nice that they put this up here. though the internet is the down fall of music. This is something good comeing from it.
You may need to listen to different bands then, I know alot of great live bands, but yes B.N.L is Splendid
Phoenix!! I so want to go.
@xsamitt Yeah, it's a very popular single off of a very popular album. TH-cam wouldn't let me link, but just search "Maroon (album)" on Wiki.
Great. All i can say.
I just couldn't help but sing along. :D
@Tashiluvschaos those are great too :D
ok i have a MAJOR problem. i have a song stuck in my head and cant fig it outttt!! it has the verrrry begin music to this song in it. and its a guy or guy band. i figured it was this band or sumthin similar so can u guys or ne viewers help me if they kno at all wat im talkin about?! i kno its so hard to give ne clues but i only got so much in my head to kno it by.
