a lot of live videos have a bit of pre production done to them before being released. Its pretty likely that they did a neater live attempt (not studio quality) to overlay on the video
Whether you think Amity are good live or not, you can't deny that an Amity show is one of the most passionate shows. Out of all the shows I've been to, nothing tops Amity. The atmosphere is just something else. It's the best sense of community I've ever experienced.
Oh my god. This is just the best live video I've ever seen. Everything was perfect: Ahrens vocals, the performance, the crowd and.... just EVERYTHING!!!
These guys are incredible, seriously! They sound soooo goood live and this song really hits a spot in me, i love amity and i think i will always, ALWAYS remember them. This is my open letter
I am right there with you. The moment I heard these guys I was addicted..and when this song was released, something opened up inside me. This, too...is my open letter.
Good God the whole thing was truly amazing but the ending was beautiful. Loved when Ahren jumped into the crowd and let the one guy sing a verse. Can't wait to see them at Warped
This is the first song that I heard from The Amity Affliction, way back in 2011. This is the song that began my journey with this amazing, phenomenal fucking band. Their music has gotten me through some of the hardest, most trying times of my life, because their music was all I had.
I have to agree My mate dragged me along to Pushover in Melbourne this past Monday and out of all the bands that played, Amity stood out the most. Not because they were headlining and played last. Just something about their set stood out to the rest.
I've never heard Ahren sound so fucking good live. He's usually really hit or miss but this performance is fucking insanely good. I got chills. This song is incredible
There's a reason these guys are on Roadrunner Records and not something like Rise or Facedown. Not there is something wrong with those labels. I love them.
Holy crap. A band with great production quality on their album, that can actually sing and do the whole song live without sucking? I love these guys even more now!
It was an amazing experience seeing them preform this song last week. Words cannot describe how grateful I am too see them. It sounds over used but they really did help me live that extra day, I'd love to thank them in person.
These guys will always have the best live shows. Everything about it is just great. It gives you goosebumps to see and hear everyone screaming at the top of their lungs. You can see the passion, and it's just something you don't ever forget. Everyone their has had that same low point that you have had, that's the reason they listen to Amity. And to see everyone just screaming and singing a long with the people that saved their lives. It's priceless
I think is very disrespectful to say that TAA is better than PD. Both bands are insane and they're both in another level talking about live performances. Australia is the one who is winning here, anyway. Thank you Australia. My life is complete because of the bands that you send to my ears every single fucking day!
I saw them in November last year, thought they put on a pretty good show. Seeing them at Slamdunk fest next so even if they aren't as great, its not as if I'm missing out
I saw them at rod laver arena in december, no stage presence at all. Singing about shit suicide songs and clean vocals are horrible... At least take the mic off the stand joel! Joke.
That epic moment when Ahren's part comes up, and he nails, then exits like its just a normal thing. Oh wait, it is a normal thing for him because he's a beast up on stage!
This is my open letter This is something to remember I won't be buried before my time I'm not searching for forever I've got my eyes opened wide I've been searching under rubble from the past Just looking for a reason to make your life last No need to look skyward for you to find hope No need for redemption to be saved from the rope Fuck no I'm not searching the sky for a reason to live 'Cause I found beauty right here and found the passion to give So let me give you my heart, let me give you my tears Let me give you my life, let me give you my fears Just so you can hold on and sing while I do Sing these words out so loud Like I sing them for you This is your open letter, something to remember We can still keep on fighting even though life is not forever I'm not searching the sky for a reason to live 'Cause I found beauty right here and found the passion to give So let me give you my heart, let me give you my tears Let me give you my life, let me give you my fears This is my open letter, this is something to remember This is my open letter, I'm not searching for forever I'm not searching the sky for a reason to live 'Cause I found beauty right here and found the passion to give So let me give you my heart, let me give you my tears Let me give you my life, let me give you my fears One more time I'm not searching the sky for a reason to live 'Cause I found beauty right here and found the passion to give So let me give you my heart, let me give you my tears Let me give you my life, let me give you my fears
the vocals are fuckin sick holy shit i didn't expect ahron to be this good live but GODAMN he's naturally gifted
Now he's not that good live :/
***** yea wtf. He never sounds this good.
a lot of live videos have a bit of pre production done to them before being released. Its pretty likely that they did a neater live attempt (not studio quality) to overlay on the video
wtf are you guys talking about, he sounded great live when I saw them.
Guys really? He sounds great live!!
finally a clean singer that sounds the same live!!!
Agreed, especially when he goes crowd surfing in a inflatable raft lmao
James Tews you're lame
Agreed not that many who do.
Cough Josh gilbert cough
I think this videos been edited on vocals. Ahrens note changes are too sharp. Pitch corrected
3:30 That crowd member has a good voice.
I refuse to die before I see The Amity Affliction live
Agreed ! :P
Marta Costa ive seen them 3 times :D
Sir Jack omg you're so lucky
Marta Costa I MET JOEL ON THE STREET ONE TIME! ^~^
cossabst omg i'm so jealous
"Comin in!"
**Dives into crowd in the blackout**
Oh Ahren
When Sheldon didn't become a scientist, he became the bassist for The Amity Affliction!
exactly what i was thinking
Lol I've thought the same thing forever
commandofafa Gaming It's Josh from Until Dawn.
I think that's why Arhen dyed his hair blonde 😂😂😂
This is the best I've ever heard Joel live.
Bradley S I think the screams are dubbed. Cleans are pitched corrected
Whether you think Amity are good live or not, you can't deny that an Amity show is one of the most passionate shows. Out of all the shows I've been to, nothing tops Amity. The atmosphere is just something else. It's the best sense of community I've ever experienced.
wow a live performance in this genre where you can actually hear the vocals over the music. MADNESS!
Oh my god. This is just the best live video I've ever seen. Everything was perfect: Ahrens vocals, the performance, the crowd and.... just EVERYTHING!!!
Ahren hitting those high notes is amazing! Oh my
These guys are incredible, seriously! They sound soooo goood live and this song really hits a spot in me, i love amity and i think i will always, ALWAYS remember them. This is my open letter
I am right there with you. The moment I heard these guys I was addicted..and when this song was released, something opened up inside me. This, too...is my open letter.
One of my most played songs. I absolutely LOVE this song. Chasing Ghosts is such a kickass album
Man I wish this version was on Spotify one of the few live versions I like
The clean vocalist is so good live jeez
Luke Robertson fuck yeah he is. I was just thinking the same thing.
spontainousteve in this setting, but there is a video of them at warped tour and its a bit rough
he had a sinus infection then. I saw them the same year later and he sounded great
hmmm makes since
Ahren
Good God the whole thing was truly amazing but the ending was beautiful. Loved when Ahren jumped into the crowd and let the one guy sing a verse. Can't wait to see them at Warped
Same here. Ahren is just an amazing person
I as well I'm going to the July 17th show
Elizabeth Green I see you on every TAA's song..
***** See what? Me?
Elizabeth Green Yup.
3:23 MY GOOOD THAT WAS SOOO BEAUTIFUL I REALLY WANNA SEE THESE GUYS
Still hits years later
the fact that they sound just like the recorded version when they sing live... just pure amazingness. thumbs up for them
This is the best live video I’ve seen. Ever.
This is the first song that I heard from The Amity Affliction, way back in 2011. This is the song that began my journey with this amazing, phenomenal fucking band. Their music has gotten me through some of the hardest, most trying times of my life, because their music was all I had.
This is the best live version of Open Letter. With that great performance they had. And the best crowd to sing with. 😊
Goosebumps every time! Thanks for giving me hope and always being there for me when I have no one. You guys are my savior no lie.
I have to agree
My mate dragged me along to Pushover in Melbourne this past Monday and out of all the bands that played, Amity stood out the most. Not because they were headlining and played last. Just something about their set stood out to the rest.
Hard to believe it’s been so long since this came out man
I've never heard Ahren sound so fucking good live. He's usually really hit or miss but this performance is fucking insanely good. I got chills. This song is incredible
Holy shit, they actually sound like they do in the studio, live. That's a rare thing these days
Imagine dragons are so much better live than studio
I love the way Ahren just jumps into the crowd. The look on his face is so happy and passionate. You can tell he really loves what he does :)
There's a reason these guys are on Roadrunner Records and not something like Rise or Facedown. Not there is something wrong with those labels. I love them.
Holy crap. A band with great production quality on their album, that can actually sing and do the whole song live without sucking? I love these guys even more now!
It's moments like these where you really wish that you could like a video more than once
It was an amazing experience seeing them preform this song last week. Words cannot describe how grateful I am too see them. It sounds over used but they really did help me live that extra day, I'd love to thank them in person.
Thats because it is. The bloke is probably one of the most genuine people I've ever met.
I love it when Ahren jumps into the mosh!
Love how the bassist from Thy Art Is Murder takes over on bass when Ahren stage dives. Bands help bands
This is probably my favourite live performance from the amity affliction
This is so much better than the music video for the song, not that I dislike the music video, but this has a lot more passion.
These guys will always have the best live shows. Everything about it is just great. It gives you goosebumps to see and hear everyone screaming at the top of their lungs. You can see the passion, and it's just something you don't ever forget. Everyone their has had that same low point that you have had, that's the reason they listen to Amity. And to see everyone just screaming and singing a long with the people that saved their lives. It's priceless
These guys are criminally underrated.
Exactly. And they sound very identical to how they do on the record. That's why I love this band so much. They don't over edit themselves on albums.
These guys are gonna blow up.. theyre huge on octane already
This is whats beautiful about this band they get into it just as much as there fans amazing live cant wait for warped
Fuck me dead the cleans singer is perfect.
His name is Ahren
I love that scream you can hear Arhen let out at 1:59
How about Troy's scream at 0:38?
I miss the chasing ghosts era so much. It was the best. So many memories came with it
They're sooooo good live. Seen 'em in Chicago back in October.
im in love with this
Goosebumps.
This is my favorite #1 TAA song.
Such a great song n live video/song
seeing them in July, SO STOKED
I think is very disrespectful to say that TAA is better than PD. Both bands are insane and they're both in another level talking about live performances. Australia is the one who is winning here, anyway. Thank you Australia. My life is complete because of the bands that you send to my ears every single fucking day!
These guys give it 110%. Love it
wow, amity affliction was fantastic !
0:19 that double kick!
Seeing TAA for a third time in a couple of months, couldn't be more hyped
dont... such a shit band live now mate.
I saw them in November last year, thought they put on a pretty good show. Seeing them at Slamdunk fest next so even if they aren't as great, its not as if I'm missing out
I saw them at rod laver arena in december, no stage presence at all. Singing about shit suicide songs and clean vocals are horrible...
At least take the mic off the stand joel! Joke.
+matt johnson Ah fair enough man its a shame, they've got some belters they could play live
WHAT?! those clean vocals are the best i have ever heard in my life live! Holy shit!
I love them sooooooooooo much!!!!! they sound awesome!!
This video needs way more love than it already receives
By far the best I've heard Ahren sing! Also best performance by them as well! 3:22 and on gives me the chills for some reason :P
That thank you at the end sounds so freaking honest
This Is the Best show ever, i wish i could saw AND heard this live 🖤
I love how Ahrens just like "comin in" lmao he should stage dive more often, it's so weird seeing him without his guitar tho it's so unnatural
Melbourne did me proud, I love my city :')
One of the best LIVE music videos I've seen in ages!
Love you guys!!!!!!!!!!! 🥰🥰🥰😘
THE AMITY AFFLICTION is an extremely awesome band & hands down Crushingly DAM good live
this is PERFECTION
This was the video i went to in high school when things were rough ❤
OK, that was lit 🔥
They're such an amazing band to see live!!
Still the best live performance to date
Really good live video makes me wish I was actually their even though I am not even an Amity fan
That epic moment when Ahren's part comes up, and he nails, then exits like its just a normal thing. Oh wait, it is a normal thing for him because he's a beast up on stage!
Why am I just discovering this now😢😢😢😢
finally an amazing clean vocal performance!
This band means everything
beautiful.
Man i wish i have a band that consistent like this
i like this music most..♡ want Japan to come.TAA大好き♡

This guys bring me back to high school memories, and this freaking song is giving me the chills
Still waiting on this UK tour, its been a long time coming! Also, Ryan sure does love that TGI vest :p
This is my open letter
This is something to remember
I won't be buried before my time
I'm not searching for forever
I've got my eyes opened wide
I've been searching under rubble from the past
Just looking for a reason to make your life last
No need to look skyward for you to find hope
No need for redemption to be saved from the rope
Fuck no
I'm not searching the sky for a reason to live
'Cause I found beauty right here and found the passion to give
So let me give you my heart, let me give you my tears
Let me give you my life, let me give you my fears
Just so you can hold on and sing while I do
Sing these words out so loud
Like I sing them for you
This is your open letter, something to remember
We can still keep on fighting even though life is not forever
I'm not searching the sky for a reason to live
'Cause I found beauty right here and found the passion to give
So let me give you my heart, let me give you my tears
Let me give you my life, let me give you my fears
This is my open letter, this is something to remember
This is my open letter, I'm not searching for forever
I'm not searching the sky for a reason to live
'Cause I found beauty right here and found the passion to give
So let me give you my heart, let me give you my tears
Let me give you my life, let me give you my fears
One more time
I'm not searching the sky for a reason to live
'Cause I found beauty right here and found the passion to give
So let me give you my heart, let me give you my tears
Let me give you my life, let me give you my fears
JUST AMAZING.
Awesome! Actually got goosebumps at the end.
i said it once and i say it again, THEY SHOULD MAKE A DVD!
And they are!!! So stoked for it
cant wait to see them this summer....
Love this live version!!
Love them so much.

SO THIS IS FINALLY PUBLIC. THANK GOD.

Oh how I envy everyone that was at that show D:
Still love this song so much ...\m/
That end was absolutely amazing! Amity, please come to europe? :(
They're fucking live. I love the clean vocals, best part
