Tier Chen Did you just call Billy Talent underground? Do you know what underground even means? Do you even know what a "one hit wonder" is? Becausr they are neither. Thye are really succesfull and are reaaalyyy big in germany and canada. This song doesn't even have that many views in comparison to the other ones. Educate yourself before you talk shit.
big in germany and canada haha gz than its of course right this band will still rock in 20 years like metalica and iron maiden ... totally the same lvl :D how can i call them underground they are so famous and everybody knows dozen names from there tracks xD and dont forget about all the top 10 charthits :D i mean some years later and everybody is talking about billy talent .... they are just to legendary pls go and educate yourself before u tell other ppl to educate them just becuz your definition of a word without a official scale to measure it issnt the same like the definition from other ppl vs iron maiden and metallica (iam not a fan) billy fucking talent is a undergroundband ... and even the comparison of these bands is +pure bullshit thats the point ... what next? comparing tupac and drake or jacko and psy ...fanboys these days lol
This is one of my favorite billy talent songs lyrically. The lyrics are just fantastic. "Cant even sell my soul 'cause it aint worth shit to take" "I found the key to life, the lock was broken" They are gold.
I thought for the longest time the lyrics for the second verse were, "Follow the rainbow, my lucky OLD MAN. There ain't no pot of gold, jus' COUPLE tokens." hahahahaha
I like how the first few seconds of the intro is only in the left side, then the right side can be heard to represent your angel speaking to you from your left shoulder, and then the demon on your other shoulder appearing and screaming louder.
"Devil On My Shoulder" As I get closer, my dreams get farther I climb that ladder, but you kick it over Thirsty for water, you give me vinegar When I drink your medicine, it just makes me sicker I dug a hole so deep I'm gonna drown in my mistakes Can't even sell my soul 'Cause it ain't worth shit to take I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over) And I just can't sink any lower (lower and lower) The hounds of hell are getting closer (closer and closer) I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over) Follow the rainbow, my lucky omen There ain't no pot of gold, just copper tokens I found the key to life, the lock was broken All my accomplishments, are best left unspoken I dug a hole so deep I'm gonna drown in my mistakes Can't even sell my soul 'Cause it ain't worth shit to take I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over) And I just can't sink any lower (lower and lower) The hounds of hell are getting closer (closer and closer) I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over) My horror story is nearly over I said I'm sorry, but I was sober I beg for mercy from my infernal friend The one that drops the nails into my coffin I got the devil on my shoulder I got the devil on my shoulder I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over) And I just can't sink any lower (lower and lower) They got to take me, take me over (closer and closer) I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
I'm hearing this for the first time, and bro....What a sound! This is one of the most amazing guitar grooves I've ever heard, the guitar player is phenomenal. Billy Talent is such an incredible and totally original band!❤️

Was at the show in Calgary last night and Ben would sing "I've got the devil on my shoulder" and the audience sung "Over and Over" as loud as they could. It was awesome!
I seen them once. In Truro Nova Scotia. I screamed encore by myself for a good 5 mins at the top of my lungs and finally more people from the crowd started to shout it with me. They came back out and played 4 more songs one of the best nights of my life
loved them as a teen and finally saw them live a few weeks ago. since then, Ben's voice has burrowed into my brain and I can't get it out, nor do I want to.
billy talent,is my favorite music group,im a fan of billy.the devil on my shoulder and river to below r my preferer song of all song of billy.tks billy for ur good music.
you know it's the worst when you're writing a test in uni and you got his awesome song stuck in your head. Thanks Billy Talent that i probably screwed this test, but love the song!
House of Blues, Boston, MA, 2010 - had no idea who the opening act to Rise Against was, but when they came on stage, they were a force, and since then I've been enthralled in all of it. Billy Talent I to Afraid of Heights, they'll always be a favorite of mine.
Fun fact: As far as I’m concerned Billy Talent makes a sequel from the self title album since 2006 like The Devil In a midnight mass related to The Devil On my shoulder in 2009 all the sudden.
I remember the first time when I heard this song. Now it has been 4 years and I still love this song. Billy Talent is the best band. I hope they will keep making good music
I love the lyrics cause everything comes from the heart of the most run down part of the city he's from as so am I (referring to Vancouver) shit is too good
How this band didn't make it to the mainstream is beyond me at this point. Years later.
Yeah there a lot of shit bands that made it big
they made it kinda big? pretty famous in my country in europe. not the biggest but not bad too.
They didn't sell their souls for starters
They were played on the radio regularly late 2000s and early 10s
They were mainstream tho
this band will still be rocking in 20 years ,like Iron maden or metallica , this type of bands will never break apart.
Hard to tell, sadly, the drummer have multiple sclerosis..
Dont see that being true, 2 years later and they dont have much going on.
typical fanboy comment who thinks his random 1 hit wonder underground band is so legendary and will rock forever xD

i mean some years later and everybody is talking about billy talent .... they are just to legendary
pls go and educate yourself before u tell other ppl to educate them just becuz your definition of a word without a official scale to measure it issnt the same like the definition from other ppl
vs iron maiden and metallica (iam not a fan) billy fucking talent is a undergroundband ... and even the comparison of these bands is +pure bullshit thats the point ... what next? comparing tupac and drake or jacko and psy ...fanboys these days lol
What 10 years ago? Damn dude, time is fast as hell, but still a great song in 2020.
I looked at the date and I couldn't believe it. It seemed like yesterday that the song was on MTV
@@FR4NKYEtheIV MTV o.O
*I haven't heard that name I'm years*
yessssssssssssss
fuck off with those comments
The main riff in this is honestly one of the greatest riffs ever written. It gets me hype as fuck every single time.
true
and the solo is just perfection!
I love the stereo at the beginning
Yup
This is one of my favorite billy talent songs lyrically. The lyrics are just fantastic. "Cant even sell my soul 'cause it aint worth shit to take" "I found the key to life, the lock was broken" They are gold.
i think tears into wine is better lyrically
I thought for the longest time the lyrics for the second verse were, "Follow the rainbow, my lucky OLD MAN. There ain't no pot of gold, jus' COUPLE tokens." hahahahaha
The "couple" mistake I did too, but "old man" is just weird af LOL
one of my fav songs to play on guitar aswell, Ian makes sick riffs
What about Viking Death March?
Long live Billy Talent 🇨🇦
After so many years I started listening to them again ... Not understanding why I Ever stopped
me too
this itself situation
Wow same here. Weird.
Same
I rediscover them every year or so. And every time I'm like shit this is such a good band.
I like how the first few seconds of the intro is only in the left side, then the right side can be heard to represent your angel speaking to you from your left shoulder, and then the demon on your other shoulder appearing and screaming louder.
Daaaaaaamn i was always asking my Self Why it is Like that
One of the best riffs of all time.
I'll never understand how Ian wrote so many legendary riffs
Beetoven style, apparently my previous employer's spouse went to school with them. Woooow! Such a small world 😮
made a deal with the devil
"Devil On My Shoulder"
As I get closer, my dreams get farther
I climb that ladder, but you kick it over
Thirsty for water, you give me vinegar
When I drink your medicine, it just makes me sicker
I dug a hole so deep
I'm gonna drown in my mistakes
Can't even sell my soul
'Cause it ain't worth shit to take
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
And I just can't sink any lower (lower and lower)
The hounds of hell are getting closer (closer and closer)
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
Follow the rainbow, my lucky omen
There ain't no pot of gold, just copper tokens
I found the key to life, the lock was broken
All my accomplishments, are best left unspoken
I dug a hole so deep
I'm gonna drown in my mistakes
Can't even sell my soul
'Cause it ain't worth shit to take
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
And I just can't sink any lower (lower and lower)
The hounds of hell are getting closer (closer and closer)
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
My horror story is nearly over
I said I'm sorry, but I was sober
I beg for mercy from my infernal friend
The one that drops the nails into my coffin
I got the devil on my shoulder
I got the devil on my shoulder
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
And I just can't sink any lower (lower and lower)
They got to take me, take me over (closer and closer)
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
I really wish they had a bigger impact here in the states.
This rocks I was lerterly 2 seconds in the song and I love it
this is one of the most underrated bands I've ever come across, like all of their songs are so perfect
I'm hearing this for the first time, and bro....What a sound! This is one of the most amazing guitar grooves I've ever heard, the guitar player is phenomenal. Billy Talent is such an incredible and totally original band!❤️
They are a quality band they just need to get back to doing this more than trying to stay popular
I play this song; over and over...
One of the most underrated bands
Very true!!
underrated haha sure
Agreed ☝🏽

They are underrated. This band has more jams than any other since the early 00s
I'm in love with this band

Why you had 135 Abos and I only 10?
Jera on air 2018 :D
what is it about billy talent? why cant i get enough of them?
They have their own unique sound.
Still cant get enough all these years later
very rarely do I find a band that has the 'it'. Billy Talent has it on all fronts. end discussion.
For me, it's the perfect song to write some chapters in my book.
As I get closer, my dreams get farther
I climb the ladder, but you kick it over

'Cause it ain't worth shit to take
I've got the devil on my shoulder, over and over

The hounds of hell are getting closer, closer and closer

Can we agree this is absolutely genius?

I’m sorry I can’t like the comment
I didn't know they were old.....10 years ago lol
loved them as a teen and finally saw them live a few weeks ago. since then, Ben's voice has burrowed into my brain and I can't get it out, nor do I want to.
They came to South Africa twice! Their shows are electric. Unbelievable energy!!! Truly a great band.
How the fuck does this have so few views? These guys are brilliant.
ExigentSource They aren't much advertised, they need to perform at various shows that are played on TV radio etc
Everybody was listening songs on the TV or radio...
Indeed!! :)
+ExigentSource True
yes i don't understand this. They are very popular but the youtube videos hasn't much clicks
Best Canadian musician habds down
It'd be AWESOME to see this in hd... The raw energy pulsating through the video, great riffs and Ben's amazing voice are my most guilty pleasures~~

One of the most under rated bands,it's a shame they don't get more air play
They got a lot in Canada for their first 3 albums
Old but Gold.

I love the lyrics cause everything comes from the heart of the most run down part of the city he's from as so am I (referring to Vancouver) shit is too good
