Thank yall for them kind words It helps Really does

This performance is legendary. I've watched it hundreds of times over the years and still come back to it today.

I had never heard of this band prior to 20 minutes ago. I've listened to 4 songs and they are now my favorite band of all time.

Who still revisits this in 2021? I just can't think of another rock band of the last 20 years who can even touch this. Beautiful song. Brilliant band.

My favorite part about this song is the walk down on guitar to indicate icarus falling from the sky instead of saying it in the lyrics. The alchemy index are some of the coolest concept albums of all time!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw that part that way.

Cant shake this song off of my head...the story the intensity the song the artist

OMG 4:09 to the end is so incredibly intense. Dustin puts everything he can into expressing this monumental story (to the point he almost tears up), definitely one of my favorites and I appreciate anyone who appreciates this.

+You Found Carl I love how he's able to put so much anger and energy into singing that part and still sound absolutely amazing! If I yelled in a mic like that with that much passion and anger i'd sound like terrible haha

The last part of your comment (like the last part of the song) was intense too. And I surely appreciate you back 😜 it seems most ppl who listen to this band mainly for their lyrics, know what matters in life.

This song helped me deal with the passing of my mother

1 - Try not to cry; 2 - Cry a lot.

I love that towards the end Riley seems to be looking at Dustin to try to figure out if he's okay or not. SO INTENSE.

2024 and this song continues to break me

Thrice helped me thru high school and even up to today... this has always been one of my favorite songs along with The Melting Point of Wax

THAT ENDING is everything I want in a rock song, and before I heard it I didn't even know I wanted it... just absolutely incredible.

The build up for this song is phenomenal. Starting off slow, building more rapidly till finally the finale. Wanting freedom, to having faith, and ending with tragedy. Beautiful song and great story.

This song always gives me the chills and almost never fails to put tears in my eyes, I love this band so much!!!!

I legit cried for an entire night to this song a month or two before my first son was born back in 2010 - just in the fear that I may not be a good father and fail my son... There's been a few times this song has brought me back to that night which always inspires me to be better for my now two sons

Its a powerful message they spread in this one. Hope all is well with you and your boys.

I know this song is about the story of mythology story Icarus , however as a father of a son it brings me to tears.

this live version is literally better than the studio version

Dustin's emotional performance here is really moving here. What a fantastic concept album

Love the way he tells this story

stand on the cliffs with my son next to me This island, our prison, our home And everyday we look out at the sea This place is all he's ever known But I've got a plan and some wax and some string Some feathers I stole from the birds So we leap from the cliff and we hear the wind sing A song that's too perfect for words But son, please keep a steady wing You know you're the only one that means anything to me Steer clear of the sun Or you'll find yourself in the sea Now safely away, I let out a cry That we'll make the mainland by noon But Icarus climbs higher still in the sky And maybe I've spoken too soon But son, please keep a steady wing You know you're the only one that means anything to me Steer clear of the sun Or you'll find yourself in the sea Won't you look at your wings? They're coming undone They're splitting at the seams Steer clear of the sun For once, won't you listen to me Oh gods, why is this happening to me? All I wanted was a new life for my son to grow up free And now you took the only thing that meant anything to me I will never fly again, I will hang up my wings Oh gods, why is this happening to me? All I wanted was a new life for my son to grow up free And now you took the only thing that meant anything to me I will never fly again, I will hang up my wings Oh gods!

such an intense performance

Oh Dustin. ❤️❤️❤️ He is just golden.

after 8 years, I have come back to enjoy my favorite live performance once more HELL YEAH

I remember this story from my childhood, watched a cartoon movie depicting this story. Naturally I loved this song when I discovered it.

This is absolutely one of the best songs ever written. Love thrice, but holy fuck this is amazing.

By far my favourite band of all time. Wow

One of the best bands in the world. So underrated

Gets me choked up every time. I love you Reznor Michael Niedfeldt.

My favorite of Thrice's live performances. Thank you for the upload.

Dustin put all of himself into this one, EPIC!

I've been a fan since the beginning, I've heard this song and seen this performance countless times and it still makes me cry like a baby.

One of the greatest songs I've ever heard. Thanks for reupping this. It was on here before but disappeared.

Holy shit. That's the most intense thing I've ever seen.

Insane vocal intensity. 😎

Came back to this after getting tix to see them one more again for The Grey tour. This is both one of my favorite songs and favorite performances. Dustin gives his soul here!

As soon as I hear Oh god why is this happening to me.... I start to cry

one of the most beatifull renditions of the story!

Shout out to the dads to be in 2022. I my self am scared shitless.

Dad of 4 in 2024. Bought this album when it first came out. I still pop it on every now and then.

FUUUCK I MISS MY FATHER!!!!!, This song is where I can let it out.😢😵😭😭😭

Once I play this song.. it stays on repeat. Crazy that I just discovered the live version

this combines my love of rock music with mythology i love it can't believe i didnt find this sooner

aww, the matching guitars and bass days ♥

Such a good song!

Amazing

Where is good music like this today?

How does this have so few views? so much passion in this video.

Young Skywalker is in terrible pain

I hope I die before Thrice breaks up.

What year was this filmed? 2007??

:'(

I love Thrice. But I can't stand how out of time Riley is in the beginning. Literally his purpose, and he couldn't do his job. As a drummer, that seems like it should be priority number 1. Keep time>Be Unique>Look Cool.
