- Second original in two weeks. We are on fire and cannot be stopped. We went to the renaissance festival today and had a really good time. We weren't really sure who won the joust because no one got killed and that's what we kind of expect after watching Game of Thrones.

Lyrics:
Sophie, your friends all think I’m lonely
But they don’t really know me
I guess I have to work on that
I’ve found a piece of ground in this town
And I just don’t need them around
Putting labels on my back, no
The front line, your doorstep is the front line
A battlefield of landmines
Set to blow when I walk in
But lately you've been calling me baby
And I can walk in safely
To let those glory days begin
Chorus:
And if no one looks up
Then they’ll Never see
My smiling face and your warm embrace
When you’re standing next to me
Sophie, will you be my one and only?
I know you’ve always known me
To make the rules up as I go
All the same, I think we’re winning this game
Though we’ve never given it a name
I’ll just call it “friend or foe"
Chorus
Sophie, will you be my one and only
Sophie
Why is no one mentioning that Jonah is playing guitar, base drum, high hat and base harmony at the same time???
Seriously!!! More appreciation for Jonah is needed!!!
Because brian is funny internet video man
Jordan Taylor the lad is a kING
A one man band
Because like, drummers do that + more on a regular basis. Still good, but brian is clearly the one that brought us here from his kotaku stuff.
IF yall dont start appreciating jonah we're gonna have a problem
FACTS
as someone who plays guitar (rather poorly) his finger picking skills are SICK
I have been trying to learn this all afternoon... and I only have the first ~ four measures done... of the simpler version on the EP.
@@XantorzDralhorIV did you get the pattern from watching this video or did you find it somewhere? because i want to play it too but im not skilled enough to pick it up from the video
@@lenatour th-cam.com/video/7BPqVAdd5SQ/w-d-xo.html
This is what they put on their EP, I too am not skilled enough to play the version on this one.
I can't get it quite yet but I'm getting there. I used the ultimate guitar page for the base chords. (tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/the-altogether/sophie-chords-2608584). Key of Bb, but you can put the capo on the third fret to play it as if you were in G. (But it makes the G go up three semitones but you probably get the gist.)
If you want, I can help by sharing what I do have of the picking pattern. Its still pretty difficult but yeah.
I am surprised BDG didn't become well known sooner. What a truly talented man.
I read that as ‘surprised BDG hasn’t become a boomer’ and had a stroke
I'm surprised The Altogether didn't become popular until Brian became popular.
One of the dislikes has got to be Kevin Punt
I hope that bastard's in jail!
which is an absurd request for 8 year old
anyone that hasn't seen that gesamtkunstwerk would look at this and be so confused
@@lindseythespy8208 bold of you to assume that every living creature doesn't know BDG.
@@rafag4430 oh u right sorry
Normally I'm the one thinking "man I wish my name was ___" listening to songs but here we are
Sophie Bradshaw yo, you seem pretty dope and your are is also pretty dope, you just got a new subscriber. I see you haven’t posted in a while but I hope you see to post again the art vids you posted are cool tho
Same here darling
Soso Saby mood
Theres a classic kiwi song called Sophie by a band called Goodshirt you should check out
Congrats dude lol
I feel an incredible amount of nostalgia for this song even though I've just heard it.
Gandalf the Grey OMG THATS THE FEELING. I couldn’t describe but you did it and oh boy is that it.
MoooooooooooooooooooooooOoOoOoOooOOOOOOOooOOoD
This is my first time listening and I feel it
yeah brian’s songs are like that
It has that early 00s energy to it
I'VE BEEN LISTENING TO THIS SONG ON SPOTIFY FOR THE PAST THREE YEARS AND I NEVER REALISED BDG WAS THE SINGER JESUS
That must've been quite the shock.
SAME
it just happened to me oh my god
OH MY GOD I KNOW I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE LOL! Also now I know who's the guy baptizing BDG in the scrapped old
bay commercial
Literally me. I am in actual shock. This feels like forbidden knowledge.
Okay wait a damn minute-
This man is funny, smart, AND he is musically talented?
He holds too much power. Brain David Gilbert either is God, or can kill God. You cannot change my mind.
He IS my God
and i do not CARE IF THERE IS A DIFFERENCE
he could probably even kill sonic.
he's Kirby.
Lol love your name and profile pic combo
i've often joked that i'm straight for brian but this vid made me question if it's actually a joke anymore....
Sophie Orlet god this was relatable
Sophie Orlet oh MOOD
yeah same,,,,,
Maybe you're bi
@@jebbush1222 b(rian)isexual
this was recommended to me on spotify and i fell in love with it a a few months back and i'm only now learning that it's brian david gilbert? hello???
DUDE i can imagine the whiplash
Bethany Wingenfeld me too!
DITTO
s a m e
same I am shook what -
oh shit at 4:10 he's not just singing sophie, the notes are 5-#4! So-Fi!!!
ayyyyyyyy
something only the musically inclined can appreciate😂
We love word painting :)
For the Solfege fans lol
brian: *breathes*
everyone: *questions their sexuality*
(also, damn give jonah the attention he deserves, mans mighty talented)
I mean, I know that I'm straight, but-
*OH DAMN HE TOOK A BREATH GTG*
have I just been proposed to?
:X
No you got proposed to 4 years ago
Lucky bitch
How on earth did you manage to bag the name sophie? I thought that only one person could have a specific username, but have we found the original sophie?
The Crab Maestro ha not quite. i think when they merged the google stuff with youtube you got the option to use a google account with your real name. so i did!
The One dislike is just someone mad that they aren’t named Sophie
I feel bad for them
@@sophiescribbles8504same
I’m winning bc the girl I’m seeing has a two syllable name and I can easily just put her name in the place of Sophie YEEHAW
:D
But does it RHYME with “Sophie?” Because there are plenty of lines in this song that either rhyme or slant-rhyme with “Sophie.”
Hehe good luck!
@@mephostopheles3752 My partner's name rhymes with Sophie which makes me happy, so I can substitute their name in my head lol
@@mephostopheles3752 Lorie?
For some reason I can perfectly picture one of those beaches that blend into tall grasses with the wind blowing as a couple try to have a picnic while everything keeps blowing about
Brian so much different when he sings. Two sides of the same coin, and their both polished to a shine
👀
I JUST DISCOVERED THIS MUSIC AND WHAATTTTTTTT???! I’ve been a HUGE fan of Brian’s for a bit now, so when this popped up in my suggested, I knew this would be good, but I didn’t know it was gonna be *FREAKING PERFECT* (and also make me VERY sexually confused) but I’m very glad I’m here
Guys, I love this song so much. I've listened to this and the mountain man song by you two at least 8 times each this past week. Your happy-sad songs remind me much of iron and wine. I'm so glad I found Brian's stuff through Polygon. I never would have found this music and it brings a lot of joy to me!
Hoops Greene do you mean “this Manhattan man” bc I don’t recall a mountain man song but maybe I’m forgetting it
Madison Berger yes ty! I realized like right after I commented that it was a completely different song and I’m a dumb bitch. Side note: if they don’t release mountain man song on streaming services imma riot
my boyfriend just sent this to me and im in TEARS
Oh that’s really cute
Are you BDG fans?
Awww that’s cute!
Damn, Jo really be playing a lot of instruments whilst Brian's just playing the ukulele
AND WITH MY HEART.
BDG is the epitome of humanity:
Musically talented
Hilarious
Big gremlin energy
Is one inch away from going clinically insane
Great writer
And to top it all off... just a great dude
youtube was on auto play and i wasn't looking at the video but i was like, "damn, this is really nice- wait that sounds like bdg there's no way- holy s h i t it's bdg" this is such a good song and im sad im only hearing it now
AHHHHHH THE BUTTONS ON BDG'S SHIRT ARE GIVING ME LIFEEEEEEEEEEEEE
This safety fan and bureaucratic wunderkind is really making me feel a lot of emotions
and you thought i couldn't be more in love with him
This song has changed my life. I’ve fallen in love with it. It’s soft, it’s beautiful, it’s playable (blessings to you two from someone who plays ukulele and guitar); how did I not find it sooner? If I ever have a significant other with a two-syllable name, I am going to sing this song to them. Period.
I swear I'm straight but I have never had such a man crush in my life. BDG is the only person that can make me question my sexuality
Y'all NEED to appreciate Jonah's guitar playing, like seriously
Man, this song hits me where it hurts
guys you should be on spotify or something,this is great music
The Red Cloud They are, they just got some new stuff on there. It’s real nice.
This song is on their Look Up EP!
i love how this is a beautiful song about a person's experience with love, and the description is just "we had fun at the ren fair :)"
that one measure of 5/4 at the start of the last verse has been tickling my brain for weeks.
My bisexual heart just fell in love
Julian Ennemoser same
B(r)isexual
Same
Jonah is a *masterful* guitarist, I am continually blown away by him.
This video, this one right here, has opened up so many people's bisexuality. Thank you.
my bisexual self is *quaking*
brb changing my name to sophie
wow....another masterpiece from S&G
I found you guys on spotify around 2018-ish and I didn't know that BDG is in it. Oh my god. AND NOW I KNOW THE GUY IN THE OLD BAY (SCRAPPED) COMMERCIAL BAPTIZING BDG. OH MY GOD.
i think this is quite possibly my favorte song of all time . ive been listening to it constantly, including the time a few weeks ago when i listened to literally just this song on repeat for like four straight days on spotify. it means a lot to me, in a time of chaos and transitions, and i just want to say thanks, i guess.
(also. the way it intesnifies at "but lately you've been calling me baby" and "all the same, i think were winning this game" literally makes me go !!!! like my chest expands and i hope to have someone i can sing this too some day, someone who makes my chest feel that same way. maybe she'll be named sophie, who knows)
I have been a fan of their music for years and I’ve been obsessed with Brian’s Unraveled series for years. Was nobody going to tell me they were the same person until now??? It’s been like 2 years???
So DBG sings too? Like not just sometimes as a joke, but for real? This man keeps impressing me.
This is one my favorite songs that the two of them have done. It's soft and lovely,,,
I honestly prefer this version over the Spotify/studio version. The drums aren't as prominent, and it makes the song feel...gentler in a way
This popped up right after watching Howl's moving castle and.......what do I think now!?
I love it so much.
Your songs are great guys! This channel really needs some more recognition!
+thejapanesetortise True that
I love that he sings it with so much love and emotion. I love seeing his love for this
As with all of the altogether’s music, the instrumental progression is phenomenal in this song - when Brian starts on the ukulele, you can barely hear it, and it comes in so so smoothly that when Joseph came in on the guitar it felt like the ukulele was always there. That kind of volume control is not easy! A phenomenal performance from Brian and Jonah, all those years ago😊
I'd like to thank TH-cam for recommending this video to me today. I would scream at TH-cam for not recommending it to me sooner, but my musical tastes have evolved over time. The inclusion of this type of music is actually only within the last year or so.
I don't know what it is about this song but, wow it makes me emotional.
I guess it reminds me of all the loves I've had/haven't had/have yearned for, and it just completely transports me back to high school when I started listening to The Alogether/bdg (it sounds super dumb to say that since I'm a freshman in college but with covid, senior year feels like years ago at this point). I dunno, maybe I'm just being dumb, but god I love this song.
if i change my name to sophie will u marry me
The realization that this song was sung by my favorite boy made me love him even more
i love the chords in this, damn, gorgeous
gonna have to check out your other songs too
After having followed BDG for some time and bopped along to Alone in My Apartment a million times, I was not ready for this.
But I absolutely appreciate it.
i think that this still might be my favorite song
wow i am very gay for men thanks
Ryder Soleno SAME
oh me
Felt
Why is Brian so talented omg I love him
And I thought it was impressive to just come from _another_ Altogether video with 464 likes and no dislikes. This one has 774 likes and again, no dislikes. This should be an impossibility!
ok but we gotta stop giving brian all the credit for this band.
Frig this gives me one more reason to love this man
This is the only song that makes me cry every time I hear it, and I honestly can't tell if the tears are happy or sad
I have a love hate relationship with this band, my ex introduced me to this band and truly brought us joy listening to their music together, he left me and coming back listening to their amazing music stabs me in the hart making me want to cry
I have been listening to this song for years and only just found out BDG was the singer. Absolutely phenomenal man
i just found this and it brought me hope today
this is what a man who reads all of the halo novels sound like
I'm shocking nobody has offered you money for this yet. This song would do really well.
I love this song so much I’ve been listening to it nonstop for the past week and had to learn how to play it on my guitar
jonah is one of the best songwriters of all time no question about it
bruh this song feels like a nice warm hug i love this
I came for BDG. I stayed for a song that made me cry.
it's just so beautiful. I'm sad I didn't listen to it when the channel was in it's prime.
Came here to be sad after watching the last unravelled :( what will I do without BDG hilarious video game/ mental breakdown content!
I used to listen to your songs when I was in a real rough patch of my life. I'm sure that I'm still here because of it. I left for a while but I felt lost lately. Changes in life and all, I don't know where my place is. I came back to your channel and I think it's going to be okay. Thank you for everything you do, you don't even know how important these songs are to me 🥀
My name is listening and listening to this melts me imagine someone sends this to me!
I've had this song stuck in my head and playing on loop for the last couple of days and I'm not even mad about it. It really is such a beautiful song by two really talented people.
honest to god grateful to be able to enjoy this amazing song
what the fuuuuuuuuucccccckkkkkk whatttttttttt thheeeeeeee fuuuucckckckckck why is this sooooo good?
Such a beautiful song, keep coming back to it
I try to listen to this song almost every day ❤️
Tell me. How is this song not wildly popular?
and I've just noticed the Stillwater tshirt where everyone except for Russell is in shadow. Perfect.
LOVE U GUYS
Brian contains multitudes and continues to baffle me. This is So Good
I keep coming back to this song, it’s too good to let go
Wtf so far ive listened to this 3 Times and cried each time. This is so beautiful
I liked the cheeky 6/8 bars.
I genuinely love this so much, yall are so underrated
oh my god this is amazing!!!!! brian your voice is like soft honey holy crap!!!!!!! it makes me happy :) Also, drum/guitar man is very talented and impressive! but mostly wOW brian
That is the perfect description for his voice hot damn
So glad this popped up today
Stoop dudee... im tearing uppp
Im obsessed with this song. Its so beautiful
wtf, I always thought vocals were computer-assisted, my goodness, I didn't know such a voice naturally existed, curse me for not finding this earlier.
It got everything, Beautiful melody as the main part, a transition into a interesting melody on the “they’ll never see my smiling face, or your warm embrace when your next to me” part I love it
we don't deserve these dudes,,, they're too talented for this world
what a beautiful song- it had some radiohead vibes in the end??? loving it.
Love love this song
Well goddamn, BDG. You just Unraveled my heart.
What the fuuuuuuuck???? You’re amazing!!!!! What a beautiful voice!!2$-5 a beautiful melody!
I LOVE this
I came here for memes and giggles but stayed for the feels
