The worst thing about the Paramore timeline is that the angry edgy emo days where the happiest... And the happy bubblegum colorful days are the saddest ever. And I find that relatable, I miss being an angry emo teenager instead of a sad adult. I miss the 00's man!
I think the pinnacle for Paramore was their Riot album. It had the edgy angry lyrics and music whilst being super catchy. Brand new Eyes was more pop and rock and since then the band has moved towards pop music. Initially, Paramore was a collaboration between Josh Farro writing the edgy music and Hayley writing the lyrics however they broke up romantically between Riot and Brand New Eyes and the songs changed as he left the band. Their last album was so bad I didn't even purchase it. Paramore without Josh Farro just isn't the same.
@@almac9203 The Josh-Hayley combo was strong! And Riot is the first album that comes to mind when I think of Paramore. I do like Brand New Eyes though, but after that... It's a shame that they decided to go for a pop sound instead of keeping some edge in their music, cuz they had a nice balance going on.
@@djtopp6958 2 years of training isn't a small amount troll or just fucking braindead? a full album is going to change your voice for the better which they made 2 in her teens. I don't even like paramore that much, this comment is just so fucking stupid.
"No one cares to talk about it" Acording to Hayley, only last year did she and her mom talk about Hayley's parents divorce. Almost 15 years after this song. Kinda sad.
Jesus Christ 15 years? a large Part of me and my mother bonding is talking about the divorce (which lasted about 8 years, fun times) and my dad and how it affected us all bla bla bla, so at least I have one parent who does
For those of you that don't know this: Hayley wrote this song about abusing love. She's talking about what it was like when her parents separated and then divorced. Most of the time when parents divorce they don't discuss it with the children. They just assume that the children can just move on while they witness their parents at each other's throats. My parents separated 6 weeks before I turned 7 years old. Then they divorced a few months after I turned 7. It was like a battlefield. They were constantly arguing about everything for years and years. And it didn't stop until I became an adult.
I totally agree. This album is so special to me. It was the first album I could listen to on repeat, sing every song and not want to skip a single one. Paramore will always be my favorite band. To have an album like this straight out of the gate is a gift!
@@blahblahsuperanon Agreed, Conspiracy, Franklin, My Heart, all nostalgic gems! Love everything they put out but this album will always be my number one!
Can we take a moment to appreciate the fact that Hayley can look amazing in any kind of clothing?! I mean, tattered white dress - beautiful. Blonde hair and Alice-in-wonderland dress - stunning. Jeans and a t-shirt - gorgeous. A freaking fanny pack - punk-rock goddess. How?!

I'll be 27 this year and I remember buying this CD at Walmart in 8th grade and would listen to it on my CD player on the bus to school.... damn I feel so old 😭 I love all phases of Paramore! It's like I grew up and evolved with them!
I'm also turning 27. (in 2020 though) I didn't buy this CD in 8th grade. But I do still love this band and their albums. Though I haven't been listening since Brand New Eyes. I just didn't enjoy Paramores's self-titled album. Idk if their music improved after that. I'm kind of a stubborn person when it comes to listening to new music. I prefer listening to music I loved as a teenager, even when many of my favorite bands still release new music. I did nooot have a CD player in 8th grade though. I had some kind of MP3 player. Don't think it I had got my first iPod Touch yet back then though and I still had a flip phone, even in 2012. It took me so long to get my first smartphone. I can't even imagine ever going back at this point. No way. My smartphone has everything I need it to and more. I use it more than my computer for a lot of things.
Christina Delarosa I’m about to be 25 and I feel like I’m turning 40 😫 I remember listening to The Almost’s and paramore’s CDs on repeat before I fell asleep.
Man I really hope they'll play this one live again...this was really where it all started for them and I hope they acknowledge the AWKIF era in some way.
They want to promote their new album so it's usually going to be the new ones or more recent compared to The OGs. I could do a ballad of this. I might as well dye my hair. 😅
As someone who was "emo trash" as a teen, I've never grew up believing that everything is dark, cruel, and angsty. And I always assumed that the whole brooding thing was a joke. I've always viewed the music and pretty much the lifestyle has positive and instead of "everything is sad", I saw it as "it's okay to be sad".
i love this view of being emo i have depression but am a generally positive and bubbly person, so people ask me how it's possible to be emo but this just makes soooo much sense!
@Valkyrie ALTER was there really a difference? It's all kinda under the same family tree. Goth, punk, emo... I guess it doesn't matter now since both trends are kinda dead anyway...
Hayley was 16 when this song was recorded and I'm 16 now. Remind me again why someone my age is able to be this badass? update: in 2020 i’m 20 and still nowhere near as badass as hayley williams

this song has honestly saved my life "i've seen you cry way too many times/ when you deserve to be alive" thank you paramore, and this music is honestly so wonderful
went and saw them live last year, they usually tend to play newer material at their shows and they stick to a track list that doesn’t consist of any of the material from all we know is falling. it’s really disappointing because this is my favorite paramore song and it sucks i might never get to hear it performed live
Y'all can hate on me, but IMO this was their best music by far. Nothing will ever touch this compared to what they put out new. This was just so much more raw and full of emotion.
+James Cioffi This is honestly the best Paramore track ever, particularly the Crab Mix version. So much talent in this it's unreal. Pressure, Emergency, My Heart, For a Pessimist..., Hallelujah...I mean *that stuff*, is "my" Paramore.
I’m so mad for just now finding out about paramore, I’ve never been a fan of this type of music until now but man are they amazing. Much love for anyone listening in 2022 onwards.
Don'r be. I just found out about them in 2019,then i decided to named my daughter after Hayley williams. The bond that Paramore creates with their fans is different.😎
Bless y’all’s heart’s. I was right there when all these bands were droppin gems. Never would have guessed Paramore was going to blow up all over the mainstream like they did. Especially being from my city (Nashville) and NOT be country. They proud of her around here.
Dont beat yourself up about it. It was like 3 months ago I barely got into them. Never could get into emo pop punk but I cant imagine going back to when I didnt like it. All we know is falling and riot are classics
I fucking love Paramore. It's so sad that they're down to only 2 members now. That's hardly a band anymore. That's why I like to go back to old songs of theirs like this to reminisce about how they used to be and how much of an awesome band they are, cuz I'm honestly really gonna miss them when they're gone
I have to agree with most people I do like Paramore's older songs much better than the. New ones. Just because people prefer Paramore's older music it doesn't mean they aren't dedicated fans! It just means we like the more rock music rather than the new pop mainstream Paramore. And it's not that I hate the new songs they've come up with I just prefer the older ones that's all. EVERY ONE IS ENTITLED TO THEIR OWN OPINION!!!!
and you can still enjoy them in concert because on there FOB tour there on now they even did mostly old songs and only like 4 or 5 from new cd and they even did pressure and emergency and stuff they havent done in a while like for a pessamist and born for this on the tour also and some like saying sorry i herd they did
English isn't my native language so usually I just go through the motion of the music. All these years I've listened to this song, only now I actually stopped to pay attention to the lyrics and there's just a beautiful message in it. I know now that it's about Hayley's parents' divorce, but when she says: "I can't pretend that I don't see this" and "you deserve to be alive"... it just sounds like she's trying to make a call for help to save someone with heavy level depressi0n. I can imagine she went through that at the time and maybe her parents told her these words, but I really appreciate her putting them in the song. For anyone that may feel like this, know that you're not alone, it's really an emergency and you should seek for help. And if you see someone going through this, don't pretend to not see it and try to help. We all deserve to live.
I'm a student from Japan. I've been still studying English. I have no clue what this song is about, but I really like it. I rarely comment, but I think it made me do it. I SUPPER LOVE IT! Thank you.
If you like you could listen to □PENUMBRA - Sacrificio (Video Lyrics)□ it's a similar style, maybe you like it too. I'd love to know your opinion about them. 🤘
Every band has its own old school period and mature phase .... Now they are adult people around 35 years old .... The grow up and dedicated to make music .... not just pop-punk for teenagers ..... We all have to grow up !
So weird how mainstream changed so much from early 2000s. I guess thats just part of growing up, just glad I was able to experience it with ya'll even tho none of us met. amen.
@@docc_ Lol you've misheard me and I dont blame you I've misspoke a bit here, But what I meant was how mainstream back then had unique taste of music on what to play on the radio and tv. Aight fam.
@@citlaliargueta3306 Lol dont get me wrong some of nowadays music is absurd but theres some that still make me head bang but just in a different taste don't mean dont like it lol I don't get me wrong I was on the hate train a while back but now I ride solo and thats the best decision I've made so far.
@@zmoonias2367 you're right actually, nowadays it's only pop music and trap on the mainstream, back then there was space for rock, rap, pop, soul, jazz and etc.
Ignorance Is Your New Best Friend no please stop..its not about growing up ive seen a video where its about what the fans want so they have to do that different music. Half like the rock punk and half like rock pop and they lose fans cuz of it and they say that its hard cuz they lose fans after making music for them.
Even then they still do emo pop from time to time, Be Alone was an example of this. I personally think Self-Titled was their best album too, as it has the biggest variety in songs and the sheer amount of content on it is huge compared to other albums. I do love their older stuff as well, but they're just as awesome now as they always were.
Gives me goosebumps watching these old songs I loved growing up helping me with life and depression. Now it seems like Hayley is going through it with her solo career. I just feel alot of depression from her newest songs and feel sad and then I go back to this and feel alive again. Hope everything works out for her for whatever she's truly searching for in life
I know they were on a low budget with this album but I love the mix for this! It’s like she’s doing call and response with herself. She says “i think we have an emergency” twice and it’s followed by double vocal stacks (in unison). Basic or not, it’s very fitting for the song 🙌🏽 I hope they re-record the whole album (just for fun) for the 20th anniversary, though it probably wouldn’t hit the same when Josh isn’t there
Friends Project is the new MySpace. It’s a website that came out around the same time as MySpace and at the time, people thought it was going to be it’s replacement before Facebook came. But some teenagers are discovering it and ditching TikTok for it.
Only discovered this song like a year or two ago.. I still come back to it because it has that angsty post-hardcore/ emo feel to it which I miss these days
that the music buisness though, you want to continue making money and staying relevent, change every aspect that made you who you were, and if you don't your label drops you like a bag full of spiders and finds a replacement. it fucking sucks :(
my crush in the 8th grade had this as her MySpace profile song. Everytime I listen i get reminded of my kinda emo phase. I still know her but we are adults now and that era is long gone
I really hate when people say omg I miss old paramore because for me I'm always with Paramore. I love all their songs I don't dislike any I've been with them since I was kid. I'm what you call dedicated. I listen to their songs everyday and that will never change
I don't miss 'the old paramore', they're paramore regardless of what they decide to do. I miss their old muscial style, though. Only have a single song from their latest album, their tastes changed a bit too much for me. Compare... emergency to music from the last album. Sounds like a completely different band, although, yes, technically speaking, they are still paramore.
When your mom love Paramore and another 00's bands, and always listening their music, when you a little kid, and now, you are a teenager, you too fall in love whit their music. This feeling is beautiful. Sorry, my bad english, i'm hungarian.
Definitely in my top 3 Paramore songs so f ing good, the light and shade, rise and falls and the breaks, all come together so well, Hayleys vocal on point and amazing as ever 😊
Since some of you are bringing up how much attention Hayley had back in these days, she fought and fought to have the band included too. When the Farros left they started listening to her. Who knows, maybe she threatened to stop the attention focused on her.
“Its really not your fault that no one cares to talk about it, cause ive seen love die way too many times when it deserved to be alive ive seen you cry way too many times when you deserve to be alive”
I know how amazing her voice is but this makes me regret life till I destroy it just to love it all over again. It's like a weird cycle of regret and love overflowing into every limb of my body every single time I hear her voice. She's amazing.
I wish I was born earlier! But I love this music! My generation will never have this. I think we can all agree, this era will be loved and missed. 🤟🏻✌🏻
Me too!! I’m looking at all of the comments, talking about their memories and nostalgia, and I seriously can't relate. I still really enjoy Paramore though. I feel like I'm living out their phase but in a different era.
It was amazing in the worst way. Because all this emo music made me even more sad while my world was already imploding. It helped and made everything worse. It was a beautiful curse. 😂
I loved Paramore back then. And I keep coming back to their old stuff. Their new songs are not for me (coming here after Tell me why), but they have a discography where everybody can find something for themselves.
I love the old things the most too but still listen to some new songs They grew up and changing their sound is totally normal Just like you growing up and still preferring their old stuff
Looking back into some of Paramore's older stuff I'm actually really pleasantly surprised. It's really great and I'm almost tempted to say better than their newer stuff.

When you deserved to be alive
Alive
Anyone here who still love this era of Paramore? Who's here with me now listening?
9/30/20
This was the best song in my opinion
05/10/2020
God this song reminds me of high school. I feel so old lol.
10/19/20
this song has honestly saved my life
"i've seen you cry way too many times/ when you deserve to be alive"
thank you paramore, and this music is honestly so wonderful
I came here because I just randomly kept singing this and it got stuck in my head. Ohhh nostalgia.
Why have they not been playing this song live? This is hands down one of their best songs.
yeah this is one of the songs ever
Facts
I’ve been listening to their live version on the final riot album. She sings so well live!
went and saw them live last year, they usually tend to play newer material at their shows and they stick to a track list that doesn’t consist of any of the material from all we know is falling. it’s really disappointing because this is my favorite paramore song and it sucks i might never get to hear it performed live
i loved this when i was younger
And now you dont?
ANNA panda of course i still love it and listen to it😊
my favorite part is when she sings, "these scars they will not...fade...away" it gives me chills
at 2:35
Y'all can hate on me, but IMO this was their best music by far. Nothing will ever touch this compared to what they put out new. This was just so much more raw and full of emotion.
Agree, but well, 2 members leaving the band it's something really hard for a band
+James Cioffi Agreed 100%
+James Cioffi Agree, but the new songs isn't that bad, Part ll and Future are really nice.
+James Cioffi This is honestly the best Paramore track ever, particularly the Crab Mix version. So much talent in this it's unreal. Pressure, Emergency, My Heart, For a Pessimist..., Hallelujah...I mean *that stuff*, is "my" Paramore.
+James Cioffi my favorite is crush crush crush, but I'm an 80's kid so...
I’m so mad for just now finding out about paramore, I’ve never been a fan of this type of music until now but man are they amazing. Much love for anyone listening in 2022 onwards.
Don'r be. I just found out about them in 2019,then i decided to named my daughter after Hayley williams. The bond that Paramore creates with their fans is different.😎
BESTIE SAME HELP
Bless y’all’s heart’s. I was right there when all these bands were droppin gems. Never would have guessed Paramore was going to blow up all over the mainstream like they did. Especially being from my city (Nashville) and NOT be country. They proud of her around here.
Dont beat yourself up about it. It was like 3 months ago I barely got into them. Never could get into emo pop punk but I cant imagine going back to when I didnt like it.
All we know is falling and riot are classics
Damn, I grew up with paramore
Paramore is one of those bands I wish I knew earlier in life.
It was a hell of a time man, 2005 was during my teenage years.
Same
BUAGH agreed. So grateful, that my friend got me into them!!
You missed out dude. I've been seeing them live since 2007, it's been life changing but welcome to the club!!!
same :( I miss it sooo muchhh!@@thesilentcartographer5575
I fucking love Paramore. It's so sad that they're down to only 2 members now. That's hardly a band anymore. That's why I like to go back to old songs of theirs like this to reminisce about how they used to be and how much of an awesome band they are, cuz I'm honestly really gonna miss them when they're gone
Who left?
+thePKfyre I heard that too back in June and I researched it last week and Haley said to expect it by December
Zac is back! Zac Attack!
Look at 21 pilots, they're 2 man band lol
m3gAm37aLmAnX Panic! just is Brendon now!
I have to agree with most people I do like Paramore's older songs much better than the. New ones. Just because people prefer Paramore's older music it doesn't mean they aren't dedicated fans! It just means we like the more rock music rather than the new pop mainstream Paramore. And it's not that I hate the new songs they've come up with I just prefer the older ones that's all. EVERY ONE IS ENTITLED TO THEIR OWN OPINION!!!!
and you can still enjoy them in concert because on there FOB tour there on now they even did mostly old songs and only like 4 or 5 from new cd and they even did pressure and emergency and stuff they havent done in a while like for a pessamist and born for this on the tour also and some like saying sorry i herd they did
totally agreed
Wherever you are, whomever you are……whenever you've heard this song, it seems to stay with you for life.
Fact.
2:45 that guitar solo dudee you can feel the 2006 vibes XD
Mr Ass i literally got chills the first time i listened to it smh
Omg same
Bener banget wkwk
Absolutely
Can confirm 1000%
"no one cares to talk about it " this could not be more true ...
john vafeiadis yep so true........
OMG ΒΡΗΚΑ ΕΛΛΗΝΑ FAN
john vafeiadis so true and " " giving up on every chance you get,Just to feel new again" is also so true
about what ? x)
2:47-3:12
This part of the song makes me feel some type of way I can't explain- 😭❤
Hey sis 👁️👄👁️
Yup agree.. ur right. I feel it too.. make me tears
Nostalgia, sad, hope and beauty at the same time. That's crazy
@@silvercookiexd870 👁👄👁 sup
English isn't my native language so usually I just go through the motion of the music. All these years I've listened to this song, only now I actually stopped to pay attention to the lyrics and there's just a beautiful message in it.
I know now that it's about Hayley's parents' divorce, but when she says: "I can't pretend that I don't see this" and "you deserve to be alive"... it just sounds like she's trying to make a call for help to save someone with heavy level depressi0n. I can imagine she went through that at the time and maybe her parents told her these words, but I really appreciate her putting them in the song.
For anyone that may feel like this, know that you're not alone, it's really an emergency and you should seek for help. And if you see someone going through this, don't pretend to not see it and try to help. We all deserve to live.
I'm a student from Japan. I've been still studying English. I have no clue what this song is about, but I really like it. I rarely comment, but I think it made me do it. I SUPPER LOVE IT! Thank you.
Old school Paramore is the best. ❤🤘
If you like you could listen to □PENUMBRA - Sacrificio (Video Lyrics)□ it's a similar style, maybe you like it too. I'd love to know your opinion about them.
🤘
Any- school Paramore is the best.
Every band has its own old school period and mature phase ....
Now they are adult people around 35 years old .... The grow up and dedicated to make music .... not just pop-punk for teenagers .....
We all have to grow up !
I miss them so much
So weird how mainstream changed so much from early 2000s. I guess thats just part of growing up, just glad I was able to experience it with ya'll even tho none of us met. amen.
Finally someone who is not like oh new music is trash now and know that you have to move on
mainstream? This album was not even close to being mainstream
@@docc_ Lol you've misheard me and I dont blame you I've misspoke a bit here, But what I meant was how mainstream back then had unique taste of music on what to play on the radio and tv. Aight fam.
@@citlaliargueta3306 Lol dont get me wrong some of nowadays music is absurd but theres some that still make me head bang but just in a different taste don't mean dont like it lol I don't get me wrong I was on the hate train a while back but now I ride solo and thats the best decision I've made so far.
@@zmoonias2367 you're right actually, nowadays it's only pop music and trap on the mainstream, back then there was space for rock, rap, pop, soul, jazz and etc.
You never grow out of Paramore
2008 was PEAK Warped Tour
Happy 10th anniversary
15 years now ❤️
lol
15 💙
16yrs now...
How long has it been? For reala......
I still and always will love Paramore, I just wish they could bring back the emo/rock songs again...
They still do occasionally. Be Alone was a perfect recent example from Self Titled.
same but some people don't like that
they've grown up. you think Hayley still wants to sing that emo shit? rock maybe but emo nahhh
Ignorance Is Your New Best Friend no please stop..its not about growing up ive seen a video where its about what the fans want so they have to do that different music. Half like the rock punk and half like rock pop and they lose fans cuz of it and they say that its hard cuz they lose fans after making music for them.
Even then they still do emo pop from time to time, Be Alone was an example of this. I personally think Self-Titled was their best album too, as it has the biggest variety in songs and the sheer amount of content on it is huge compared to other albums. I do love their older stuff as well, but they're just as awesome now as they always were.
My favorite band back in middle school ❤ It's been ages
Katrina Simon omg hell yeah
Katrina Simon I have to its crybaby and this one paramore
Katrina Simon hell yea
Why does everyone say middle school?? Is anyone on youtube over the age of 21?? Paramore was my favorite band in high school.
I love you Paramore. You got me through some hard times.
Gives me goosebumps watching these old songs I loved growing up helping me with life and depression. Now it seems like Hayley is going through it with her solo career. I just feel alot of depression from her newest songs and feel sad and then I go back to this and feel alive again. Hope everything works out for her for whatever she's truly searching for in life
They had a really good stuff in 2000s. Idk why they couldn't stay together
@@Caendler ego and money
definitely the best paramore song imo. riot and all we know is falling were pop punk masterpieces.I miss them and early FOB aswell as MCR and blink.
+Koven nV nO NOT MCR FEELS
+Marshall Lee you haven't heard of blink 182 please tell this is a joke.😂
+Marshall Lee Go listen to blink you wont regret it
***** they are really good tbh
paramore will always be my favorite. beginning to end, great band!
I know they were on a low budget with this album but I love the mix for this! It’s like she’s doing call and response with herself. She says “i think we have an emergency” twice and it’s followed by double vocal stacks (in unison). Basic or not, it’s very fitting for the song 🙌🏽 I hope they re-record the whole album (just for fun) for the 20th anniversary, though it probably wouldn’t hit the same when Josh isn’t there
Ah, the Myspace era 💔
Yep... I remember the graphics of their MySpace profile for each album. Then everything's changed 😭
also friendster too right?
Early days of Facebook
I just recently went to my old MySpace account and everything was gone and all of the old places where pictures were are just blank boxes
Friends Project is the new MySpace. It’s a website that came out around the same time as MySpace and at the time, people thought it was going to be it’s replacement before Facebook came. But some teenagers are discovering it and ditching TikTok for it.
Only discovered this song like a year or two ago.. I still come back to it because it has that angsty post-hardcore/ emo feel to it which I miss these days
This album is one of the few from the emo scene that aged very well. Paramore could release this today and it would still hit.
I love how Haley describes how she feels about her crowd God bless her she is awesome
This is the first song i heard by them and i fell in love. I wish Paramore would come back.
There's gonna be a new album this year
yep there is and I cant wait anymore
I guess he meant "all together"
Same man
Clayton Sage this was my first song too, my big brother introduce me to them
If they're really bringing punk back i recommend she brings this hairstyle back too and that's on Emo lol.
Lets be honest girls hairstyles were so much better back then dude lol.
Not really punk rock maybe more métal no?
2020 🤟🤟🤟 paramore forever ❤️
@@yericapena186 yep paramore forever
@@mathieuputois5020 this is sarcastic right? Haha
They are pop rock hahah
Since they went pop, watching this band's old music videos is like watching home videos of a dead family member who you loved very much.
"went pop"..
Cameron Warren went popular.... as in it is a REALLY good thing haha
***** or they might not speak english as their first language you never know! Also you don't need perfect grammar in youtube comments tbh :)
***** no not really ain't nobody got time fo that bro :D
that the music buisness though, you want to continue making money and staying relevent, change every aspect that made you who you were, and if you don't your label drops you like a bag full of spiders and finds a replacement. it fucking sucks :(
I remember seeing them live 3 times in 2006. Hanging and talking with them after they opened for other bands.
Great memories.
Never happened.
@@nickclark18 Actually, it did and I have the pictures to prove it. =D Don't be jelly, yo.
And also, I remember the song Get Well by Icon For Hire, It's almost like this song but more heavy and less electronic
Lucky mf
This is by far the best female rock singer I've ever heard💯⭐
Common Paramore..please bring me only one last album in this genre.. ONLY ONCE we DESERVE IT.
Lowkey no pressure just try to hang with her current weather
@@mattematte2551 Shit weather.
Looks I’m not the only one coming back to this gem
You're not 😆
No you are not, its a classic
Nop I'm on a Paramore marathon :D
You.Are. Not .Alone.
Nope.
revivendo minha adolescência ❤️
Well.. don't we all feel old af now.
Eddie The Head stfu, and take your negative ass on somewhere...
Old fucks like us use that lingo to feel less old, youngling. Wait till you are as jaded as us and then you will understand.
If you had a sense of humor you would know that I am being sarcastic.
i was 15 almost 16 when this came out im now 27
same
my crush in the 8th grade had this as her MySpace profile song. Everytime I listen i get reminded of my kinda emo phase. I still know her but we are adults now and that era is long gone
I think this is their most underrated song.
Bro it has nearly 40 million views n the comments are like omg I love(d) this tune
I agree 💯
Like you having to edit this comment.
Yes but im glad so it didnt get played out lol its an underground hit vibes
Mhm
17歳でこの歌唱力と表現力！
デビュー時に、10年ぐらい売れ続けてるぐらいの実力、があったんだと思う、凄すぎる
Nicholeはシンガーソングライターだし、とてつもない才能
I really hate when people say omg I miss old paramore because for me I'm always with Paramore. I love all their songs I don't dislike any I've been with them since I was kid. I'm what you call dedicated. I listen to their songs everyday and that will never change
Amen dude!!!
Omg, I hate it too! They are still paramore.
I don't miss 'the old paramore', they're paramore regardless of what they decide to do. I miss their old muscial style, though. Only have a single song from their latest album, their tastes changed a bit too much for me. Compare... emergency to music from the last album. Sounds like a completely different band, although, yes, technically speaking, they are still paramore.
David Delgadillo
they've evolved and they're happier now, it's not a bad thing.
I feel like I was led on by the old paramore. Only way to describe it.
When your mom love Paramore and another 00's bands, and always listening their music, when you a little kid, and now, you are a teenager, you too fall in love whit their music.
This feeling is beautiful.
Sorry, my bad english, i'm hungarian.
Fall in love with some ESL classes.
Sorry, i learn german language, not english.
@Taylor Maddox, fall in love with some decent human classes and stop trolling People trying to share a lovely message.
@@naomiebolton136 "Decent human classes"? When you typed that out did it really sound like a good idea?
@@naomiebolton136 thank you so much your comment :)
“You do your best to show me love, but you don’t know what love is..” 😭♥️🗝 still gets me, every time.
The guitar work here is just so pure. Especially that growl on the chorus, it’s just so good.
Best Paramore songs
1. Emergency
2. Pressure
3. Misery Business
4. Decode
5. crushcrushcrush
I'm new to the band.
You're right ♡
Enya Rodríguez Thanks
+Porcaria Insana monster and conspiracy though?
Ignorance is probably my favorite.
Ignorance is best
Let the Flames Begin is second best
Any order you want after that
My opinon
As a kid, this music made an impact on me.
As an adult, this music makes an impact on me
Not gonna lie this was the best twilight brought me into
As a teenager,this music made an impact on me
This EMERGENCY will continue forever...
If she's 27 now, was she 17 when it was recorded ?
Yes I guess
yed
16
I feel fucking old. :(
Yes, and she started the band when she was only 15 years old :)
Definitely in my top 3 Paramore songs so f ing good, the light and shade, rise and falls and the breaks, all come together so well, Hayleys vocal on point and amazing as ever 😊
This band turned me into a metalhead. I wished i could be a teen in 2008 again. Loved it 😢
Best song! I love it and I want more of that from PARAMORE. ♥
You can feel the 2006 radiating off it and I love it for that
Crazy times
2005 feels
Since some of you are bringing up how much attention Hayley had back in these days, she fought and fought to have the band included too. When the Farros left they started listening to her. Who knows, maybe she threatened to stop the attention focused on her.
No, they left because it was becoming all about her. She was selling out to herself
That is not what Josh said in his 'blog' when he explained why they left.
Hateful Crowd Rene Descartes It does not matter why they left. The only thing we can say is that Paramore are not the same without them.
Luís Silva I think Paramore is fine without them. They weren't anything special anyway.
Karey Wilken well true fans understand. And i didn't said that they aren't fine. They sound diferent.
Isso é arte musical
Era mesmo, mas infelizmente ela se entregou de vez a indústria e agora canta de fralda ou mostra a banda.
Takes me back to 8th grade when this album dropped. I picked it over Norma Jean at ol FYE. Always be on the top of my Playlist
Same here
ok but norma jean is norma jean and still commands respect just from that album alone.
This turned 10 years old not long ago...
let that sink in...
what the fuck does it want now??
12 now
...
Going on 13......
Sem comparação esse banda, nostalgia ouvir de novo. Melhor época do Paramore
“Its really not your fault that no one cares to talk about it, cause ive seen love die way too many times when it deserved to be alive ive seen you cry way too many times when you deserve to be alive”
Me gusta también está etapa de mi Paramore,estoy ansiosa esperando su nuevo álbum ❤️
The make up artist, dresser and director deserve a notation. Absolutelu amazing.
Oh, and by absolutelu I mean absolutely.
djentlover you know you can edit it?
Queria mais discos como esse... Pqp velho, muita melodia e letras marcantes. Eu amo essa vibe.
Nem fala brother é uma vibe muito boa e música é foda
@@jhoneslisboa6348 Ss
Ahh the good old days with the sound of the riffsss and melodic solo. The peak of rock generation. Todays rock not rock at all 😢
i wasnt even alive when this came out but paramore is one of my fav bands
Same I like there music so much and I can thank my sister for it
When she throws the mic ❤.❤
Eu amo essa música, eu amo esse som 😍🇧🇷❤🎶💃
Ela é a minha paixão platônica 🙈😊pena que ela nem ao menos imagine que eu exista né, mais beleza.. 😊😉hehehe
We all need to keep listening to her music and keep it alive 😊💕
I know how amazing her voice is but this makes me regret life till I destroy it just to love it all over again. It's like a weird cycle of regret and love overflowing into every limb of my body every single time I hear her voice. She's amazing.
❤️
I wish I was born earlier! But I love this music! My generation will never have this. I think we can all agree, this era will be loved and missed. 🤟🏻✌🏻
same aaaaah ,,,,,,,,, i was too young when this came out O>O
Me too!! I’m looking at all of the comments, talking about their memories and nostalgia, and I seriously can't relate. I still really enjoy Paramore though. I feel like I'm living out their phase but in a different era.
Same I wish I was born in like 1999 or sum
It was amazing in the worst way. Because all this emo music made me even more sad while my world was already imploding. It helped and made everything worse. It was a beautiful curse. 😂
I loved Paramore back then. And I keep coming back to their old stuff. Their new songs are not for me (coming here after Tell me why), but they have a discography where everybody can find something for themselves.
I love the old things the most too but still listen to some new songs
They grew up and changing their sound is totally normal
Just like you growing up and still preferring their old stuff
Definitely one of my fav Paramore songs! Paramore’s MV’s are always top notch lol
Dude If your still listening to this in 2021 your a freaking Legend
Thnx bro
Ayy
Thanks boo
Indeed, thanks
Hell yeah! I was 14 when this came out
hayley williams is one of those girls that have maniac hair color but still look the greatest
Don’t you mean (one of those) crazy girls lol
She's hot as fuuuck
You know what, I love this song, and Hayley is pretty
for sure underage in this video
she is
Because I watched this video a lot of times
Best song!!
Saudade dessa guitarra, bateria, dessa força ♥︎
We're at a point where videos have been on TH-cam for a decade now.

11 years. YT started in 2005, unfortunately Vevo took down many of the older music videos.

Hahahahaha it's bout to be 13 fam.
13 and a half now....
She strikes me as an "old soul" with gifted lyrical angst. Number one crush growing up.
This song is much more punk rock than I'll ever be.
I'm seriously in love with this song. I really miss Paramore the way It was, even though I really love their new songs.
Looking back into some of Paramore's older stuff I'm actually really pleasantly surprised. It's really great and I'm almost tempted to say better than their newer stuff.
much better, cause they had Josh
