Tilian - Favor The Gods Lyrics

Tilian is the best vocalist of the decade don't @ me

BOIIII THIS WAS MY MF SONG

I wish I had found this Epicness back in 2013...

I love how my dude in the back is headbanging while playing the piano.

Sing out father
Sing out, favor the Gods
But I can't afford to wonder
I've got to make a brand new start and it's tearing us apart, it's tearing us apart

And I, I pray you come back home
I pray you burn down that wicker throne
I pray you come back home, soon

Swim out further
Swim out in your shore to drown
But I can't afford to wonder
I've got to find my own way home
And it's building up my bones
I'm not better off alone

And I, I pray you come back home
I pray you burn down that wicker throne
I pray you come back home, soon

We lose ourselves in our games
Craving validations
But you lost yourself in your head
Preaching you deserve to be right
Well trust me you deserve to be right
And how does it feel? Tired and alone
How does it feel to be alone?

And I, I pray you come back home
I pray you burn down that fucking throne
I pray you come back home soon

Sing out father
Sing out, favor the Gods

Ugh.... Yes and yes... So talented and oh so drop dead fucking sexy.. Man oh man. I love a man who can sing Especially along with playing some form of instrument💜

Somebody gives me lyics...

Tilian es una de las voces mas bellas que he oido!!!

Tillian honestly just has such an amazing voice. 🐢

You can sing. simple as that. Do I need to say anything more?

I love your voice ugh I cant even 💝💝💝🌟🌟🌟

huge VersaEmerge vibe from this song

This is unbelievably gorgeous

Currently trying to learn this on the piano!

If you learn it can you post a cover?

his talent is seriously underrated. his voice is amazing ❤️

I always love this song❤❤❤

I'm naming my first son after him. That's how powerful his voice is.

Tillian fuckin slays

Those notes tickled my balls

Beautiful, Your voice is just... breathtaking. It makes me want to cry ;( Your a star to me.

holy damn this guy rocks

This song helped me so much after my breakup, tilian is the man!

Best technical Tilian! Amazing!

He makes it look so effortless what the fuck

OMG i just found my new fave song fucking holy shit my god what a beautiful man and with a voice to match...Im straight by the way

this dudes voice is crazy its like the lead jonah nisson from dirty loops crazy

Tilian please make more solo music, I need it in my life.

Hi Tilian. Dad here. I am ready to come home. I am sorry about the wicker throne and my thirst to be right. I love you, always have, always will forever...

Forever confused as to if this is actually his father.

@Drew Leonard It's not, his last name is Pearson, and the song is about his dad coming back. So he made the joke.

i'll never be tired of his voice

He's a Greek God

TILIAN- The best singer I've ever heard. I can put him above Jason Derulo AND Ed Sheran

How could this guy be in a band like Dance Gavin Dance? The fuh

Beautifully composed.

beautiful voice #datgapdoe

This sounds so good.

I love this

shoutout to the pianist in the background rocking tf out.😂👌

so good

I love this acoustic version ❤️

He's so cute, I love his lil gap

He he. I know exactly what you mean 👍

@Hannah Gamino Exactly!

Hannah Gamino do you happen to live in Texas?

How did you know lol

this is my happiness

y is my picture sideways! lol

Love this song!

just brilliant..

Dude has a great voice, not as versatile compared to JC though.

+Mike Hounslow No one will ever be as versatile as Jesus :0

Kyle Freed Shoutout to Jesus, greatest vocalist DGD ever had. lol

Awesome song, hope the lyrics aren't relevant anymore, my dude.

both acoustic and original are just breath taking!

Amazing Lyrics and Music Tilian!!!!!

I dont think people understand how hot tillian is

He needs more confidence though. This may just be me, but when he's doing interviews... It seems like his eyes dodge the camera, makes me sad... (His eyes are just damn gorgeous)

Matt Magee his gap makes him so much cuter like ughh

Well most of us are guys (straight guys).

John Wick straight guys can complement other guys and think they look hot or appealing too

I certainly do!

I love you Tilian

I luv u Tilian

this deserves millions of views tbh

killing me

If I could request one thing of Tilian I would request that he do an acoustic version album with all these songs and some of his old Tides of Man songs *cough* Faint Illusion *cough* because I can never get enough of these over the pop versions. Like the pop versions are good but these are fantastic with his voice so much rawer and emotional sounding.

Best song he ever made and I love DGD

I don't know why people compare Tilian to Anthony Green. I mean, Tilian sings very well, but his voice is too flat, can't get used to it...

@Kennykenny Their voices are very different. I think their voices are growing more similar recently though as Anthony doesn't sound as "clean" as he used to. I'm always happy to see other artists singing their guts out so I have respect for Tilian. He has his own sound for sure. Anthony will always be number 1 for me though haha

starting at 0:42 the piano dude's hair looks like a lizard's tongue lol

@Andy Chow good catch LMAO

Andy Chow I see it now!! 😂

Andy Chow I hate that I had to see this comment lmao. Its all I can see now

Freakin poop stain this is like a Lapdance on my eardrums! Tilian is and always will be amazing! Miss him with tides though, that was my favorite band

beautiful 

@TilianPearson put this on iTunes mate!!!! I wanna buy it! You put Ghost (Acoustic) so why not Favour the Gods (Acoustic)?

absolutely fucking killed it. love him

I would love to hear you sing a duet of Come What May with Hayley Williams 

Johnny craig probably shit himself when he heard his replacement! hahaha

Craig and Tilian are both brilliant in their own rights both are genius singers

Johnny has the pain and desperation in his voice, tilian has the hope in his.

connor griffith that’s the perfect description.

He was too busy getting fucked up on heroin while lying about being clean and burning bridges.

@connor griffith That's deep man. I always feel like shit listening to Jonny because his hopeless life-style comes out in his music (Still love DBM 2). Tilian is the first stable artist they've had, and I think people are just too used to the depressing DGD, that the new light Tilian brings makes them wince.

You have an absolutely astonishing voice, and you're a total babe!!! :)))

your voice doesnt even make sense its so good! thank you for the amazing inspiration this song just gives reason

That voice. #eargasmic  

vocals are amazing!!!!! this is orgasmic

Guitar/Piano/Ukulele Chords someone Please!! :) :D <3
You're awesome (in advance) 

I don't care if people make fun of how high this dude's voice is. He NAILS those high notes and gets gritty not just because. Great tune to showcase it. 

I LOVE his voice. I'm so impressed that a grown man can hit those notes to be quite honest. This cover was damn near perfect.

YAASSSS

I NEED more acoustic Tilian. 

@whiteasian22 im guessing half voice. Because its tender and light but still powerful. Singing softly really opens up your range and gives you much more control over the solidarity of notes sung.

fucking incredible singer.

does anyone know what his ethnic makeup is? like obviously he looks white but i have a feeling he's mixed... i'm mixed, and if you're mixed, you know that we're really really good at recognizing eachother.

I'm pretty sure him and his family is Irish. or Swedish. One of the two

Good guess. Actually both. Tilian's  dad here. On my side of the family Tilian's grandmother was Jean Callahan daughter of James Callahan, Dean of West Virginia University of Irish and French extraction, his grandfather was Creed Judson Pearson, Junior, President of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Southern West Virginia of English and Swedish descent. His mother was white South African of Dutch and English heritage.

Your son is an angel! I can't get over how talented he is. Thanks for the clarification on his ancestry.

but why is he in dance gavin dance? like is he the best they could do? I mean he said his solo career is still his main focus so i feel his run with the band won't last long

exactly

@Juan Hernandez ok i missed my reply and thought you were replying to my originall comment lmao. i said i hated the band out of sarcasm bc i was still waiting on my instant gratifiction vinyl whish was like 2-3 months late lol

Still wrong lmao

Lol this comment has got me rofling

Artificial Selection BOIIIII

Ummm.... What?

i didn't believe you so i scrolled back up and i chuckled

@ian h i guess the joke worked then. comedy gold.

@dippee216 tilian is a comedic genius

really good album man! keep up the good work favorit song right now is this one!

Can he just make a song with Anthony Green please? Holy shit please.

How about: Anthony Green, Tilian, Jonny Craig and Craig Owens?

Or Anthony, tillian, Donovan malero from hail the sun, and Craig Owens would be killer.

How many years must we wait

literally my three favorite bands doing a song together? PLEASE

@manuchamp99 and Cove reber

it's so perfect ;-;

I really wish he ended up singing for Saosin. Would've been unreal

Whatthefuck?
Yes, yes!!

DGD > Saosin

xTreyray translating the name > dgd

Such a cool voice.  And I love the some of the chords he is using.  I love that they aren't just straight forward.

He's way better with dance gavin dance

no, just no.

does it matter?

He's got one of the best voices out there regardless of what people think. 

Hes amazing here AND with DGD.

You are a god Tilian.

Is it me or is it hard to tell if he's singing in falsetto, half-voice, or full voice. It's really hard to tell.

@SoySauce HairDye That's insane.

He is singing in full voice its not falsetto.

Tilian sings a lot of F#4 A4 G4 and B4 in this song.

He is in his comfortable chest voice! Only a couple times he hits head voice or if you are a rebel “mixed voice” haha

@Dex I'm not sure how hard it is for him to hit those notes, he had a naturally higher pitched voice when he speaks. Nonetheless impressive!

Tides of Man? 

Top comment whoo! <3 Tilian FTW.

If u like tiki ab or Anthony greens styles check out the song "Rome is where the art is" acoustic by elenora.... I just can't believe how amazing it is!!! Dudes vocals are amazing!! Seriously...

Finally starting to get this song down

omg so gud luv dis fuk me tilian <33

smashing the replay button !!! this is sooo amazing !!! 

Goosebumps every fucking time I hear this song. You're amazing, Tilian.

Is that like a Flea 47 or something?  What kind of vocal mic is that?

I love Country Music !

@Mike Hunt
What are you getting at? I'm not sure I follow.

This, is NOT country. thats what

@Vince Apolinar
so?

i love country too!!!

he is perfect. ugh.

A beautiful girl, and you upload City and Colour. <3

@BrohareOG Goddamn, go to OkCupid or something. You're not going to get laid over a YouTube comment.

@Settezin Zabelin Lol I am so glad my simple comment implied that I was looking to get laid by a girl that more than likely isn't in the same state, or country as me. You're a fucking moron.
