Here's To Us

[Mz. Hyde]

Discuss the song "Here's To Us."



UK Radio Edited Version (Glee Version sung by Halestorm) Promo. (This edition is signed)



From Wikipedia:

"Here's to Us" discusses how the band members like to drink to both the good times and bad. Lzzy described how they have a collection of wine bottles, marked with the date it was drunk, with commemorate the times when the band has drunk to their low points. The lyrics were slightly rewritten for the television show, Glee, to make it more appropriate for performance.

We could just go home right now
Or maybe we could stick around
For just one more drink, oh yeah

0:21-0:24

Get another bottle out
Let’s shoot the shit, sit back down
For just one more drink, oh yeah

Here’s to us
Here’s to love
All the times that we f**ked up
Here’s to you
Fill the glass
Cuz the last few days have kicked my ass
So let’s give ‘em hell
Wish everybody well

Here’s to us

0:54-0:56

Here’s to us

0:57-0:59

We’ve stuck it out this far together
Put our dreams through the shredder
Let’s toast cuz things got better
And everything could change like that
And all these years go by so fast...
But nothing lasts... forever...

1:21-1:23

Here’s to us
Here’s to love
All the times that we messed up
Here’s to you
Fill the glass
Cuz the last few nights have kicked my ass
If they give ya hell
Tell ‘em go f**k themselves

Here’s to us

1:42-1:44

Here’s to us

1:45-1:47

Here’s to all that we’ve kissed
And to all that we’ve missed
To the biggest mistakes that we just wouldn’t trade
To us breakin’ out
Without us breakin’ down
To whatever’s coming our way

Here’s to us
Here’s to love
All the times that we f**ked up

They re-recorded this song with a guest vocalist! Anyone know who it is?

[AeternusAmatorius]

Where is this "Guest Version" found?

Nevermind, Lzzy commented on her photo and said you would only get the CD with this guest version at the shows. Now I gotta go to the May show! 

[Mz. Hyde]

Good to know! I'm going to two shows, so I may pick-up a copy at each show.

[gavin4713]

What!!!! Figures when I can't go they do something like this


lol

[Mz. Hyde]

Update on the guest vocalists! Here is a list of who is on the Guest Version:

Brent Smith, Slash, Myles Kennedy, James Michael, Tyler Connolly, David Draiman, and Maria Brink.

[AeternusAmatorius]

Pretty cool. Is that the full version? It sounds so short. 

[AeternusAmatorius]

I heard the Guest version on Octane on July 4th. 

[Mz. Hyde]

The video is up! I love it! It's a nice celebration of their success . I am sure there will be a "radio friendly" version too, with the edited version of their song.

[AeternusAmatorius]

Is there an official recording for this? Or is the crappy YouTube one the only one?

There's also this one. Is it official?


Never mind. Both questions got answered. Is the Clean/Radio Version available for fans to buy/download?
