    Default Any songs like this?


    Well I for one, think it's a great song. A lot of people say it's gay, but that makes no sense at all, because he's singing to a girl. I've already tried the bands other songs too, but they just don't have the same feel to it.

    And I already have songs by The Fray, and the song Boston by Augustana. Can't find any other similar songs.

    Those songs were actually the complete opposite of what I wanted. Did you even watch the video I posted?

    @Cingal: That's a great song.

    @Jakuza: Well..not exactly what I'm looking for. The reason I like the song I posted so much is because there's very little instrumentals playing (there was only a guitar), and it's mostly vocals. It brings out the singers voice.

    I actually used to listen to heavy metal all the time, and then my music taste kind of shifted...a lot. And before that was rap. Weird.
    OK! I will try again.



    Is this what you mean?Both vid have a guy singing to a chick by themself too.

    Replicant, I loved the Jack Johnson one. But I didn't really like the second one. Sounded too much like a country song.

    I found one myself though. It's "I Will Follow You Into the Dark" by Death Cab For Cutie.

    Not much into Death Cab, but my best friend likes them a lot. As for Ben Harper just google or youtube him and you'll see he does lots of different styles when he plays. I could see the country thing which is how most folk-like music comes across. Ben also does quite a bit reggae and pop like stuff all acoustic. Jack does great music.

    You might try the http://www.last.fm website. You put in a group you like and it'll start recommending other groups with a similar style or sound.

    The only one I can think of off the top of my head is

    Anthrax - Safe Home (the acoustic version)

    But I can't seem to find it on youtube..

    End of all things as we know it.




    Yeah, I'm sure this is not what you want, but whatever.


    EDIT: Ben Harper is cool.

    Athlas, I think this might be what you wanted. It's a pretty depressing song, but falls into the style of music you were looking for. It's cover of the NIN song "Hurt" by Johnny Cash, and by far one of my all time favorites.

    Definitely, in my Top 10 fave songs of all time. Even if trent bitches about johnny changing a word. So much emotion in the Johnny Cash version.

    After you check that vid, you should at least check out the second video of mine. I might have laughed at the entire situation, but I didn't make the joke entry until the last video.

    The second one being Elliot Smith
    The first one being Radiohead
    the third one being an old Beck song.

    The song isn't really old, nor is it new. It was Cash's last video before he died, and one of his best if you ask me. As for posting more, it's finals weekend for me, so I've been on and off of my computer and studying instead of going out like I usually do.

    Johnny Cash died back on September 12, 2003. Can't believe you've never heard of him.
