Written by Your Favorite Enemies. Posted in Chaos & Communion

Watch the “behind the scene” insights that led to the performance of the song “The Mightiest Of Guns” by Your Favorite Enemies. Discover the band’s Studio B as they are rehearsing and sharing about the importance of letting the emotions carry the song and letting go of feeding the ambition of turning the song into a pinnacle climax based on a performance.  

Witness the dynamic between the band members that led to the incarnation of the song’s renewed spirit, feel the live performance and hear the band members as they define their personal perceptions and emotions, right after having performed the song and experienced the moment.

This is a vibrant testimony of letting go of any self-conscious, pre-made emotion in order to truly live the moment, as the moment unfolds itself before everyone’s very own eyes… life creates life.

    The Mightiest of Guns took me back to my days of attending youth camp when I was a teen. It’s been years since then. I thoroughly enjoy the song and felt touched wen I listened to it. I am working on letting go of old, bad feelings. It’s always hard. But, in order to live life to the fullest, I must forget the past and use it as a learning experiencve.

    Oh Big Byrd!!! and all of you!!!!!

    What holy doors you are opening for us and inviting to pass through with you – windows into realms far beyond the daily grind and emptiness we can so easily fall into unless we are tapped on the shoulder (or heart…) and invited to look up and beyond anything we have known or think we have known before.. Every time i experience your recording of this song, my heart soars, just as Alex describes here. You take us into that communion with you..that stream where you were flowing together in the moment (yes Ben!!), moving in union with each other and something beyond you and so much bigger – inviting us to flow in that stream too, that as Alex said, “blooms into something that will raise us up”…something positive and alive, redemptive and full of hope..

    i am on fire with a gentle joy…wonderfully soothing to my heart and soul but energizing too! thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    much love and prayers always…mom e

    Est-ce que c’est un artiste que vous suivez depuis longtemps ? Comment vous est venue l’idée de faire cette chanson en particulier ? C’est la première fois que j’entends parler de rédemption de cette façon. C’est cette liberté là que nous effleurons souvent du bout des doigts. C’est comme si, si on s’y accroche fermement, on peut finalement vivre ce nouveau souffle là… C’est quelque chose que je veux saisir encore plus mais surtout vivre tous les jours !
