todas vale?
biiiiitch car radio wtf
Todas siu
CAR RADIO it was so cool WHATTT
I think everyone skipped a couple heartbeats when Josh started singing. He compliments Tyler's voice so well. So proud of the boys.
Ikr! They both sounded so good together 🥺
I've been waiting for that moment since 2016 🥹
@@lisden2780 he sang parts of "anathema" but that was years ago
I actually started crying ngl 😭
My breath was caught in my throat like WOAH.
Josh singing has officially elevated twenty one pilots to a tier only few bands will ever reach, i hope the next album involves both of them doing whatever perfection this was
Yes,we must get this post popular. Hey @twentyonepilots please do an album with you and Josh both singing.
Praying for something like trench where somehow these boys will make it better 🙏
He should been singing since most bands when bands were in just getting in style always had a background singer. From now on Tyler has to make albums with background singing Josh clearly has the talent for it and it enhances their formula. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to disrespect them, but this unplugged showed me that they need to expand their music style. Tyler been should’ve made at least a stack of song ballades and have Josh add more elements into their records besides the trumpet and production effects
Trench was so goooood. I pray we get an another album like that 🙏
@@The1OnlyEnigma Also, I'm loving the additional band members for live performances. It makes all the difference in the world to hear actual instruments instead of prerecorded, looped tracks running in the background. plus, it gives them more credibility for the ppl who say they're not a 'real band' - I hope they make the new boys PERMANENT!!!
No matter how bad things get, I was on this planet the same time as Twenty One Pilots.
THIS 😍
I know right? I thought the same thing today and I bad I felt for people living in different times not knowing these guys. Pure art really. They blow my mind every time
❤❤❤ what a great comment Emily! I agree. Me too 😊😊😊
Yes! I have never even thought about this, but yes!!!
I agree with that entirely! The raw uncensored emotion and creativity they both put out there hits different
Josh singing with Tyler just sent me to a blissful place I haven’t seen in far too long. This story arc just elevated the plot tenfold.
If anyone ever thought Josh was only the drummer, this is your chance to reconsider. This video is cold hard proof that Josh contributes a full 50% of what's happening on the stage. Even I assumed Josh wasn't as acclimated with some of the technical stuff, but Josh was singing and programming beats and playing piano keys and multitasking like crazy, which is hard af. Of all the people on the planet, it's crazy how fate landed Josh next to Tyler. These guys are so 100% in sync. Their gazes keep locking in to ensure the operation's moving smoothly, and it looks like they're so deep in concentration and focus. This is taking music-making to the next level. Tyler's a genius, but Josh has done more than enough to prove he's not just a drummer. Fantastic. This is talent we usually don't see from mainstream bands. Anyways, these guys didn't get "lucky", and they're not famous for being famous -- they got to where they are with raw unrivaled skill, and probably thousands of hours of practice and racking their brains coming up with ways to distinguish themselves. There are no words
tal cual
They are alternative precisely because they are so talented in many genres. Everything you said 100% agreed.
Apparently there a quite a few words
No, I don't think my comment above adequately describes the phenomenon that is Twenty One Pilots. It's just mindless rambling. Numerically, there are quite a few words above, but I was using the expression "no words" in the sense that there aren't many combinations of words to do this performance justice -- as far as I go. Maybe someone else has the right words, but I certainly don't. I can only say that I recognize their talent, but I wish I had a better way to explain it.
Agreed..well said. You described it perfectly but still hard to put it fully into enough words to explain. I am so in love with everything they create and in awe of them each time!
Josh is not only singing but playing the keyboard as well, without any hesitation. I am so proud of him!! It sounds so good!!
he used to do it waay back when they just started out aswel :)
@@sillyduck6278 he played a mini keyboard during their performance of "Mad World" a long time ago and sang little parts of songs like "anathema" but what makes this so cool is just how much he was singing and so confidently-even without tyler singing with him which is way out of his comfort zone. they sounded really good together. i hope he sings more on their next tour
He is a amazing singer and keyboard player not just drummer we need more of this
He was really nervous during rehearsals when I chatted with him. But he did a fantastic job
So, I'm a 66 year old grandfather and have experienced over 50 years of music in almost every genre there is, and I must say, this was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen! As Tyler said, they always perform with recorded back tracks, then add the finishing touches live. But here they created something from the ground up, on the spot, as we watched and enjoyed. They have become so much more over the years since there humble beginnings. Well done boys! Oh, and Josh my friend, you are no longer just "The Drummer"! Thanks for letting us all experience twenty one pilots.
I wish to be like you at that age
If they don't use lipsync and perfom live like people say i can't wait to see concert 🔥
@@justguy161 I've seen them 3 times and every time has been the best live performance I've ever seen! You won't be disappointed!
@@justguy161 it’s great
Coincido en lo que decís, desde mis 46 años de música. Esta performance es única... qué genialidad.
(4:04) In this part I just cried. How they look at each other, the delivery of their vocals, how they complement each others voices so well, I can feel the bond between them. I can hear the melancholy in their voices. Eveything and everyone even time itself stops for a moment, just leaving Tyler and Josh with that calm and nostalgic synth in the background. Just beautiful. At this part of the song this is no longer Stressed Out, this is friendship, empathy, and most of all, one the most unbelievebly human feelings I've ever felt. This is an experience. This is twenty øne piløts.
the way they watch each other and know each other is so intense! that moment is so charged! i fully agree with your comment!! Same with the moment they have at 17:04 !!!
I never in a million years would think that Car Radio would work as a rock song, but it was so freaking good. More rock on the next album please!
Yes, we need an album full of hds and jumpsuit and that car radio version next era.
@@Chris_Pie my dream haha they said that the next album will be similar to Redecorate tho so we'll see
@@richardkunc3115 true true, still gonna be good tho
THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT
It was just so ANGSTY and GOOD!
I'm blown away by their artistry. Absolutely floored. Such an incredible performance from the both of them. Thank you for the fun surprises and beautiful music!
they even added a little bit of "trees" at the end! they're true musicians
kzhead.info/sun/n8WFmreoaop5ank/bejne.html This link is a performance by them, but this one only has Tyler. It’s a similar concept of these new versions of their songs so if you liked this MTV one, I’m positive that you will like this one. Its amazing
I just sat the hole show with a open mouth here. It's just unbelievable how talented they are. Please, somebody just show me one musician who have half of the skills 21P have.
I agree 1000000%
Los amo!! Los amo!! 😍♥️
9:22 That was the smoothest "cursing my government" I've ever heard
16:38 the keyboard vs drums battle is awesome! They know exactly the pauses, it just shows how synchronized they are.
Very reminisent of the Mutemath sessions, really fun to see that again
It shows a great mastering of tempo
You guys know they are using a click track to sync loops right?
they’re the only band that makes me emotional like this. their creativity is unmatched. shy away was insane. car radio was something i never thought i needed until i heard it
i know right? i was literally thinking that car radio is a great example of a perfect song and he produces ANOTHER perfect version of the same song?! Tyler is a genius
UNMATCHED
Because they're so real. Very transparent with their fans and it brings another level of love and respect. Just me personally.
I'm glad I'm not the only one. Watching it for the 3rd time. So many happy tears 😫😹😹 |-/
Sameeeeee
I almost started crying when Josh started singing with Tyler; their voices sound good together 🥺
Same!
Same 💜 💜
Same lmao 😭
yessss, their voices complement each other sooo well!!!
I was in tears when I heard josh sing 😫🥰🥰🥰🥰
Their talents were truly shown here, just the two of them creating the most beautiful and unique remixes I’ve ever heard. Not to mention Josh’s vocals, he really compliments Tyler so well. I hope this performance gave him the confidence we already knew he had since I know he doesn’t like to sing much but his vocals are really beautiful, I hope we hear more in their next album.
Obvious fan of the classic MTV Unplugged’s, but this is sheer musical multitasking brilliance. The amount of practice required to get this so slick is to be commended 👏🏻
Ryan you took the words out of my mouth, I’ve never seen such, there’s no words to explain what I just witnessed. 1st time watching these guys.
From watching this I get a feeling that their next album is going to be their best yet. Their artistry is just beyond, they know exactly what they’re doing and hope they show this more in the studio versions.
Every time I think they’ve outdone themselves they find a way to ramp up their quality another notch. They could have been satisfied with the livestream experience and the new album but they took it to a whole other level.
I know. I’m ready for a new album and maybe josh will see on it🫢
It was really good to hear. I'm not a huge Scaled and Icy fan but I love everything else. Hopefully you're right
I'm afraid they would have done this typa music years ago if it wasn't for labels and management 👀
yessss the hype for the next album is insane! rly hope we hear josh more in it. They sound amazing together!
this band's creativity is unmatched. every single time i think to myself, "how will they ever top this?" they continue to do just that, over and over again. it's an honor being their fan.
omg hi ori
agreed!!! they're incredible and think of so many creative ways to make each performance stand out. i do have a feeling the Chainsmokers will try to copy them or something...a lot of bands do but won't ever pull it off naturally...twenty one pilots is kinda their own genre within a genre if that makes sense
@@youtubehandlesareannoying omg is this danielle
@@aliatbest haha yes
Dude! You nailed it! That is my exact experience and my wholehearted feeling! I am truly honored to be here for this genius next level music And as Tyler has stated time and again, if we weren't there, the whole thing would be really odd and weird (that is nearly verbatim) This performance drives that home even more profoundly than any other and that is truly saying something
when i started to listen and support this band, Josh would always be the last person you'd expect to see on the mic let alone sing. 6 years later and things have changed. so proud of Jishwa
That last song. Millions emotions per minute. Pure art
if this is what they can do live, just imagine how good the production will be on the next album
Didn't save scaled and icy
@@epicstudio7185 You didn't like it 🙂
@@epicstudio7185 not every album will be a hit and writing an album during a pandemic with a baby and all this uncertainty definitely changes how it sounds.
It’s always been there on all of their albums Edit: except for the first one
@@epicstudio7185 wtf is ur channel bro
When josh started singing I almost died, he should do more he is really good. Also, i'm glad he is gaining confidence for it. Them singing really complements each other
full disclosure, i almost fell out of my chair
I was Tyler’s spotlight operator on this, and Josh had told me, the night before the show, how nervous he was to sing… he did fantastic
0:18:30 the first part of Shy Away as a melodic acoustic song is absolutely flawless, get goosebumps every time I hear it. so much emotions 😍
Twenty one pilots are such ridiculously talented artist it’s insane!
absolutely nothing could’ve prepared me for this performance. these guys never fail to amaze me
Experience told me this would be unbelievable. And it is now the best special they've done. 😂❤️❤️
Car radio at the end is a godlike, holyyyyyy
i wasn't expecting it at all! but then again that's why i love mtv unplugged, and why i love their artistry so much...
my soul left my body to experience car radio as a completely separate self
Facts.
literally!
been watching all unplugged over the last 30 years this the probably the most innovative creative and unique performance ver. just straight up 21st century
Im only listening to their mainstream song Ride, Heathens and Stressed out then I dont know what had got me to search for a live performance. Man, Im speechless! I didnt know they were this good in live. Hats off! Talented duo!
If you have only listened to their mainstream stuff right now and havent listened to their older/other stuff. You are in for a treat, i remember going through all the albums and it was so amazing. I wish i could get that experience back again! Hope you love all their songs
@@shahiq_z1432 i vouch for that
One of only probably a few bands that their live versions are better, like a lot. Best concert I’ve ever been too.
@@shahiq_z1432 The stuff i would do to experience that again🙃🥲
Yo! I’ve seen them live twice (excited for more) the artistry, showmanship, and creativity is so out of this world!
Never seen anything as musically incredible as this, unplugged or otherwise. Extremely impressive. well done boys.
This NEEDS to be on SPOTIFY!!!!!!
If I had a genie, my first wish is to go see this amazing band live. Twenty One Pilots don't ever quit making great music.
they're great live
I'm 68, & work security. The night they played in San Diego, 2016, I was put in the center of the crowd. Had only known, 'Stressed Out.' After that night, have watched ridiculous hours of Tyler & Josh's captivating talents. At the concert, a lady I spoke to had traveled to 50 concerts...that's crazy. But I understand crazzy.!
Took my daughter to see them in Atlantic City for the bandito tour, they put on a great show
i saw them live 2019 in belfast, because i couldn’t get dublin tickets, amazing show and i would go see them again even though i don’t listen to them nearly the same amount as i used to
@@w4zux i live in dublin and istg the next time they come here i will be there no matter what
This is probably the sweetest and most beautiful version of Tear in my heart!
4:20 The harmonies are literally perfect!!!! And when Tyler started playing ukulele for stressed out I cried!!!!
i know! it was amazing. i love that josh decided to sing. their voices go so well together
@@ellaelliott4415 The UK so sweet! And Tyler is usually tough lol
Indeed, they are perfect. Thanks to autotune...
@@henrynoel3336 nah
@Rodrigo Souza sorry…there’s autotune on their voices. Hope that doesn’t offend you. They sound fantastic, and they’re good enough to get away without pitch correction-but they wanted it to be perfect, and it was.
Josh really showcased his talent here! We know he’s talented but this show really seemed to require a lot more of him and he’s so talented!
well said, true
Exactly my thoughts! The guy unleashed a musical side of his that i never thought existed and I'm living for it now 🥹
Man, 2 months later and I’m still listening to this masterpiece. Never gets old. My heart stopped hearing Josh’s nervous little voice. He’s so brave battling anxiety. You can tell he gets bolder when Tyler continues to sing with him. Josh is an inspiration to us all (Along with King Tyjo ofc)
As a huge fan... How tf got this crazy show past me 😳 It's been month and I see this masterpiece of music the first time in my life
+
Unquestionably the most talented mainstream band on the planet. Even if you don’t like the music, you cannot deny that this is masterful from a technical/performance standpoint alone. I don’t even know how you begin to put this together, let alone perform it live flawlessly.
AGREED !
Everything down from the music to the lore is so incredible
They aren't classified as mainstream; they're alternative.
@@InteriorDesignStudent dude, they're the one of, if not, the best selling band of the 2010's. they sell out stadium tours. Blurryface is the most streamed album from a group OF ALL TIME. its okay for something to be mainstream, it doesn't mean it's bad!
@@nicolasrield Apparently an album by Imagine Dragons is the most streamed now :( Blurryface is 2nd
No me la puedo creer; primero el Cinema Experience y ahora un Unplugged con MTV. Qué bonita es la vida
yooooooo♥♥ demaciada emocion para mi en tan poco tiempo
Verdad 😍
Es tan hermosa, AAAAAAAAA
ES HERMOSO!!! Y LOS #VersusEnMTVHits dónde TOP ganó también!!!!
solo me falta la gira en latinoamerica
The way they are able to harmonize so well together just shows how close their bond is🥲
Talent! Artistry! Creativity! When a band is seriously all that and passionate about what and how they deliver on stage, you know they will have a solid fanbase and listeners for a long long time. They don’t have to try too hard, they don’t have to be sell outs, they don’t have to go overboard with marketing nonsense! Love these boys because they are letting their music do all the talking.
Tyler and Josh are innovators and musical geniuses. Building practically new songs in front of an audience quickly and beautifully. Twenty One Pilots is a once in a generation band (think Beatles), so do not forgot to appreciate how lucky we all are to be alive for it.
there's never going to be a band like them ever again! i started listening when josh wasn't in the band yet and i'm so grateful i got to grow up with them
Shon, I so entirely agree with you. The Beatles used to be my favorite band. Before Tøp. And the Beatles, imo, were the first band that had actual Stans (which is obviously one or more tiers above a plain and simple fan•atic, thank you Em). They are, without question, the band of a generation and probably (not just plausibly), will have a legacy that will endure for much much longer.
lol
@@SenorMango 🖕
"think the Beatles" what
Crazy, this isn't JUST a live performance. This really is a reimaging. Meaning Tyler actually had to recompose entire songs. I don't know if some of this was improv but it seems like a lot of it was choreographed and rehearsed. So that more aggressive version of Car Radio was recomposed from scratch -- akin to pretty much writing a new song, instrumentally. Anyway, I really hope they release this performance on Spotify!!!!!!!!!!!
On the tøp instagram, Tyler wrote that they had to memorize over 175 musical cues for this show! That’s insane planning and practice and to do it all live without pre recorded tracks is so different from a live show. And to take 4 of their most popular songs (Stressed Out, Tear in My Heart, Car Radio, Heathens) and make me love them even MORE is crazy. Stressed Out has become overplayed for me personally and I’ve even wondered if the boys still enjoy playing it… and so to see that particular song reimagined and recreated is creativity at its PEAK! Love these boys. Love this band.
Everyone sleeping on Shy Away when mentioning the arrangements... They turn a 4/4 fast paced song in a 6/8 ballad. That's difficult as hell to do, moreso this good
I don't think any of it was improv but that doesn't undermine the incredible skill and amount of work that went into this.
I never knew Josh had such a good voice
So true
@@anastynmason5457 replied to yourself HAHAHA
14:35 "Look mom we're on MTV Unplugged. I'm up here with my bestest of buds. He will keep playing until I am done, but I'm not quite done. In between me and you, he could play forever. He likes to play drums, even if it's the fake ones. MTV told us that we should prepare for about 40 minutes of music. So we'll play until we are done. Okay Josh I think I am done. Okay Joshua William Dun. Okay Joshua William Dun."
i’m gonna need all these songs on spotify after OMFG
Right ! I would be so happy if they would add this to Spotify 🥹
SAME
SAMEEEEEE
Yes Dude!!!!!
i want tyler's mini song about josh to be on Spotify too lol
Love how they always manage to reinvent their own song live, this is pure talent
they've proven once again that you don't need a huge band to make beautiful music
Omg that version of Shy Away is so emotional. I love it so much! Tyler and Josh, how do you do it? Just don’t ever stop
I love this whole thing but I especially love how they layer their voices!! it sounds so beautiful!! especially the "don't circle the track, break the cycle in half" part in shy away, I cry every time I hear it
this version of shy away is incredible. sounded like a refined version of the older stuff man
I just wanna acknowledge how far Tyler's vocal control has come since the beginning He sings exponentially better now but the soul and creativity are unaffected
Agree! His voice is amazing and so much stronger now. But still so emotional.
Listening to his vocal progression for ten years I continue to find myself blown away by how much range and control he has. He has a voice unlike anyone.
Hearing him sing for the first time at the start of each album cycle you can hear improvement.
also, his stage performance has come a super long way. when I look at his early live performances it's like he's a completely different person now. he jokes around about being a 'geek' but he really was uncoordinated back then lol it's so cute to watch him floundering all over the stage & slamming the piano. Not sure if it was an 'act' or intentional, but now he seems much suaver & more comfortable in his own skin. He seems to have taken on the characteristics of his alter ego when Blurryface came out.
@@HellaJ77 over the years his live voice has grown more and more similar to the tuned/mastered version we hear on finished tracks
The Lord truly blessed us when he created you Tyler. Thank you.
this was literally the best concert ive EVER WATCHED
Can we take a minute to thank MTV for recognizing the sheer genius of Tyler Joseph and that Josh Dun is the icing on the cake?! You've made a lot of people happy by putting these two insanely talented guys on Unplugged. Best and most genuine duo in the business.
could not have said it better myself!
yassss
This video just proves how far making music has come along. I believe the band on MTV unplugged that Tyler was referring to was Nirvana. The band that was like okay we’re here and we’ll just do whatever. Nirvana was one of the best unplugged episodes ever. Now 28 years later this is what we get today. Both pure genius but two totally different unplugged and both legendary. Being in my 60’s this is one of my favorite bands today. Enough said.
exactely same for me
Anyone who has watched or listened to Nirvana: unplugged in New York can see that they put alot of thought and effort into that show. Be it the stage dressing, covered in white lilies and little else, or the musicians they brought in to that show, such as a cello player that is given a large role in more than a few songs, or some of the Meat puppets, coming on to play their songs, plateau and lake of fire, or the choise of songs to perform: my girl by lead belly, the man who sold the world by David Bowie, Jesus wants me for a sunbeam by the vaselines... etc Nirvana unplugged was anything but "whatever" I think he is refering to Alice in Chains much rather than Nirvana, that is if you are only looking at unplugged concerts that were a hit, not the later stuff noone cares about. Famously Layne Staley walked out on stage late, wearing dark sunglasses and not saying a word to the audience until after 3 or 4 songs. Having just shot up a large dose of heroine
But then going on to giving a near perfect perfomance in the concert, from the moment he takes his seat.
Lol this reminds me of Alice In Chains Sludge Factory on Unplugged he just goes "F***!" 🙈
@@svavars.kjartansson1012I actually heard that Nirvana was very under rehearsed, which is probably why it seemed to laid back. Like they were still figuring it out as they were going along because they hadn’t rehearsed enough. There were a few moments where they were kind of figuring out how they were going to play a song while they were on stage.
I was born in 1971 and at the moment I can hardly find anyone in my circle of friends with whom I can share my enthusiasm for you. That's a shame, because this MTV unplugged session is so great after the first 20 seconds that it puts a lot of what I've heard recently in the shade. You are real musicians! ❤
I’m here, Michael! 🙋🏻♀️ Born in ‘68 and I’m a huge fan of these Ohio boys! Thank goodness I have a son who I use as ‘cover’ for my exuberant fandom! 🤭
Born in ‘69 and I’m right there with you Michael! My favorite band by far!!
‘75 here and feel same way! This is my favorite band of all time and that says a lot because I’m no stranger to music and a lover of some of the biggest bands on planet but this band is AMAZING!
Michael, I'm here too! Born in 1970 and very proud to had introduced TOP to my 3 sons. A few days ago I had a brilliant experience to took the oldest one, who is 24y to the latest TOP concert here in Brazil, with by the way, was amazing and unforgettable 💖
I was born in 1971. My daughter, born in 1995, got me into this amazing talent. I’m so awed, amazed, obsessed! Seen them twice in concert. Amazing show. This last time my 12 year old grandson got to witness these guys. His first concert. Fan for life!
I liked top when I listened to the recorded versions. But it was only when I started watching their live concerts that I understood the true essence of top. I think that in concerts and in live versions like this, that's when they bring a complete and unique experience. Above all, their interaction with the public, the affection and respect they show to them, the bound and proximity to the crawd they encourage to sing along, making people participate in their songs as they are truly part of it... wow!! For me, these points are what make the experience of top live infinitely better than recorded. To me, it's like the recorded versions, although perfect, are just very good songs, but when they play live, it's a work of art that goes far beyond the music, it's a complete masterpiece to hear, see, feel and to live.
Josh harmonizing with Tyler is something I never knew I needed and it's amazing |-/
22:59 TY WAS SO PROUD OF HIMSELF FOR LOOPING THE BASS HE LOOKED AT JOSH RIGHT AFTER BUT JOSH DIDN’T NOTICE IT WAS SO CUTE OMG
He was like a little kid.
He’s the cutest who’s ever lived
seeing josh fully incorporated into the vocals and playing keys and just doing more than the drums, is the most insane beautiful and constructive thing I've ever seen. amazing guys
9:00 is the reason why we need more of josh singing they are just angelic
Se nota a kilómetros que ellos son del tipo de artistas que de verdad sienten la música, qué grandes.
I literally cried while listening to this. this sound is great, their voices are made to sing together. I hope they use this feature on the new album and Josh will sing too. These guys literally saved my life and I'm glad that after a year I still love them and they work wonders
I cried at "...and so are you"
@@pennygreening9210 All of us cry when we hear that.
❤❤❤😘🥰
Same, same..
My grandson turn me on to 21 Pilots about 6 years ago.(now 20) Since then he's been to lots of shows around the country and is taking his 67 year old to see them in Nashville and I can't wait. These 2 are beyond any group I've ever been a fan of. Thanks MTV
Bravo... at about your age our daughter had the pleasure (now 18) to enjoy every concert introducing each amazing album ... enjoy !! The reworking of these amazing songs builds w/ thier musical uniqueness and thier striving to keep their friends family & followers amazingly happy ... So very glad to see this for the first time ...°•~\○●< > •~|•▪︎♡♡▪︎○••~~| \|
My son introduced this 62 year old mama and I am obsessed.
@@melodyelson3202 a lot of people says Tyler s Josh perfom truly live so I can't wait for my concert 🔥
I‘m a fan of these two for over seven years and they not even once disappointed me. Whatever they create is so frickin genius and it sounds always just like home to me. Please never stop making music ❤️
Tyler and Josh singing together...emotional. These boys are everything. Togg and Jog 👏👏👏👏
This had me sobbingggg they've come so far especially Josh with being able to sing like this in front of so many people it gives me so much hope and inspiration I can't I'm literally so proud of them
The synergy and musical brilliance these 2 can garner with instruments deserves even more recognition. Maybe it's a tad extreme, but is there any comparibal duo in the scene right now whose delivering such range and variety and brilliance.
I’m going on 52 YO. In 2015 I almost died from West Nile with meningitis and encephalitis (WNE) and during my 4 weeks in a hospital and then at inpatient rehab, these guys and Bastille were all I listened to every day. Twenty One Pilots music, sometimes sad but mostly uplifting and with such meaningful lyrics, really kept me going. I would tear up while listening just because I was enjoying it so much. When I had to get MRI’s, they would ask what I wanted to listen to and I’d say Twenty One Pilots and most times they were like, huh? They would find them and afterwards say how much they liked it. I then saw them in June of 2016 and was so blown away at their show and so very emotional as they really helped me get through the roughest time in my life. I cannot wait until l am able to see them again.
My sister almost died of meningitis and encephalitis. It’s hard to deal with when it’s happening. I’m glad both of you are alive. Stay alive. ||-//
Gonna be blunt here, but it’s because of the Holy Spirit in them. They are vessels. This is why people are so extremely drawn to them, in an atypical way compared to other artists.
Definitely the best "modern" MTV unplugged. I'm so happy that Josh finally decided to sing.
They're so creative that I was almost moved to tears watching this. I absolutely can NOT wait for their next project if all the songs are as good as theses. Stay alive |-/
Bro I cried
Josh looks like he's having fun throughout the whole thing, but he definitely looks happiest in front of his drums. I wish I had something I enjoyed doing as much as he enjoys playing the drums!
Josh vocals is something I’ve been waiting for for years, i love them.
at start i was kinda disappointed wanting acoustic versions, but this is just genius, felt like coming home after a long time, everything change but is really familiar, make me felt in peace and connected with my older self… can’t express how much this get me and help me, thank you. i will always love u guys
we would have missed out on their creativity if they'd done acoustic-like literally turning the audience into their band! amazing! and car radio absolutely floored me
that's what i was thinking too. when i saw the stage and the bass, keyboards and drum-pads i got a little disappointed because i wanted something like the nirvana 1993 set. but then yeah, this was incredible and like it works because it really is fully reimagined, absolutely loved this!!
No one can convince me these guys aren't wizards. They straight sling magic.
I love how all of the previous songs were turned to more chill tracks meanwhile car radio is just full on rock
Okay, that was insanely good, one of the best MTV Unplugged sessions ever. I can not believe what my ears and heart just felt. This session was something I never thought I needed, until I heard it. Their creativity is literally unmatched, I love them so much! p.s.: stay alive, frens! ||-//
That's an extreme depth of talent. This popped up as an ad after some random video. When was the last time an ad was far superior to any video you watched?
Same but for me it was before the video
@@averyscott284 for me it was in between a video, i paused the video and came straight here. TOP will always be superior to whatever else im watching.
EXACTLY? I didn't even like TOP that much, but I thought I'd give this video a try, since it was longer than the typical ads. I didn't regret it one bit
The best ad ever!!
Ive never watched a 40 min and before. I was apathetic towards these guys before. Masters of their craft. I've watched it three times.
Edit: after watching this an insane amount of times, I still feel so strongly about this performance and this band. The choice and talent in their ability to loop in the crowd, to utilize them as if they really were a part of the band, was brilliant and beautiful. They know how much they mean to us and it’s wonderful to know how much we mean to them. Completely blown away by this performance - I knew this was going to turn out well, but this just feels so creative and inspiring. Congratulations Tyler and Josh on once again proving anyone from anywhere can do anything |-/
I think this version of Tear In My Heart is the definitive one, it's straight up Majestic.
First time I heard this shy away I was blown away at the vocal perfection. His voice is maturing so much. The only voice that can reduce me to tears.
I’ve thought for a while that they were going to have a black and white era. I think this set/costuming may be a tease at that
They have been losing saturation - it’s almost completely gone now! I also think most of the songs being calm and certain parts/the end being high energy have significance.
They’re just toned down/subtle versions of what we saw in The Outside video.
that would be really cool tbh
Talent. Pure talent. Best Unplugged I’ve ever seen. It’s crazy how good you guys are. God Bless you and your families and the whole TøP team.
You think this is better than Alice In Chains or nirvana? Lmao
@@parkourguy4567 yes
@@parkourguy4567 people are allowed to like different things my friend
@@parkourguy4567 it is
@@parkourguy4567 hell yeah, better than them.
Why did this make me cry for excitement and just appreciation for great entertainment
The chemistry that these two have when they perform is chefs kiss. I honestly rather listen to their live performances than the studio tracks
Shy Away was literally an epic performance. Will go down in history. Well done guys
My favorite by far, sounds like an epic finale to an expanded version of SAI!
im a huge top fan and somehow i didnt know this was happening. i randomly found it on my youtube recommended and was so hyped to join 2 mins after it started. man, blurryface is here! absolutely wonderful performance, truly shows their raw talent and bravery to do this sort of thing in front of hundreds of people. sahlo folina my dudes
Oh you don't follow them on social media? They posted it this week with the link to the video
@@mg-uz4dl yeah i dont do social media except reddit
@@ipodellie7 ohh I get it
Same I have twitter but I don’t have my notifications on
Joshua Dun... You have outdone yourself. I absolutely pressed my headphones to my ears just to get a clearer sound of Josh singing. I can't tell you how proud I am of him for coming out of his comfort zone. Been watching these boys grow for like 6 years. I'm excited to see what the future holds!
I'm Jason and I have sadly given up on modern crap, until I stumbled across these apostles of music.thank you......pure geniuses.
hey i dont know if u heard their song “Pet Cheetah” from the Trench album but they sing about a pet cheetah named jason and i think its pretty cool cuz ur name is jason too XD
I have the same testimony. They converted me 😄
This is brilliant. To me this is a natural progression from Nirvana using distortion on Man Who Sold the World. Nirvana used the same philosophy. Don't just play the hits with the same arrangements as on the album, but on acoustic, but make new and different versions of songs. If they need to use electronics to do it, more power to 'em. Originality is more important than the acoustic rule. Besides Page & Plant broke that rule first.
Indeed they did, great comparison! 💛💙💛
Me impresiona las miles de formas que tienen de innovar sin perder su esencia. Los amo ayuda.
tyler and josh both have a great showmanship. thanks MTV for uploading this .
This was mind-blowing! How lucky that audience was there to witness this masterpiece. Goosebumps and tears… just wow! 🙋🏻♀️👌🏼👏🏼👍🏼💜🇨🇦
The musicianship is just impeccable. They always push new heights. Legendary.
beautiful geniuses
Yes Tod, yes
I agree I agree I agree
I thank Jesus i was placed in this moment in history. This world is in pain but there are still small candles that light up the dark places.
This is incredible. Full Stop. I am blown away by this performance. I'm a fan of twenty-one pilots, and don't know how I missed this, but the talent of Tyler & Josh is just so FAR ABOVE many other artists, and not just vocally and instrumentally, but this ability to create these brand new versions & mixes of their songs, right on the spot. This shows what an insane amount of practice & dedication is needed to perform at a level like this. I can think of very few other artists and bands right now who are also at this level of talent. This show is absolutely amazing and I can't stop watching it! I love the personality, too, that comes out while they are creating "Ride!" So fun to watch Tyler & Josh interact with their audience! They seem incredibly humble, as well.
i definitely didn’t tear up at seeing josh sing…. he’s grown so much and seeing tyler looking at him with complete proudness :,)) it’s coming up 6 years and im still in love with this band
Dude im crying reading this comment🥺
If i said it once i will say it six hundred times. twenty one pilots is the most vital band of the last decade and Tyler Joseph is one of the most gifted musicians of all time.
100% agree! Love these guys
Josh Dun as a drummer as well Who knows if he only contributes in drum. He may also play role of vocalist.
Tyler invented talent. Google it. ❤😊
Wait.. I was there and they did a dope cover of M.I.A.'s "Bad Girls." I was dying to hear it again 😭 I hope they release it someday!
