I'm a little skeptical of that one... Also: it says that "Take the Weight" is on there, meaning there's at least a "studio" (even if "amateur studio") version of this. It was my understanding that all there was was that random live version on Youtube. Has anyone heard this version before? Or know that it truly does exist? Hello, thanks for your input also. My friend used to go to Blyss events in California at local churches before they were signed and is a huge fan. She assured me that they did in fact record a copy of "Take the Weight" and it is very rare. Obviously, they never released the song but it was recorded. They used to play these songs at their youth group, FKA as well as at local churches and colleges when they promoted the Diff's Lucky Day CD. Anyway, can't wait to see how this auction turns out. I will be bidding  |

.... am I the only one thinking numberonefan made an account here to try to promote this ebay listing?
It's all just suspicious to me... especially since the person that posted the disc on ebay refuses to share even a short clip of the song to prove it's actually on there. I mean, every other Blyss song from Diff's Lucky Day is easily and readily available to hear on the internet. I'm just not 100% sure why or how Take The Weight wouldn't have been out there anywhere...or that only 1 live recording ever would pop up. You'd think if they liked it enough to record it, that they would have played it more, and there would be more live versions than just 1. Or that they call Rick, Sergio, and Jason "the original band members" when Rick was not around for the recording of Diff's. Also, didn't Ricky come in after NNF was already recorded in studio too? I mean, yes, he obviously was a part of the band by the time they were touring with MB20, but for a seller that claims to have been friends with the guys, etc, that seems like a pretty big oversight. Or I'm just reading too far into it.
I don't know, but I personally wouldn't bid unless I heard even 10 or 15 seconds of Take The Weight to hear it's really on there.
I'm sorry if I come off offensive or like a conspiracy-theorist but I just am not so sure about it. The ticket looks and seems 100% authentic though, but I think just about every fan that wants their (at least Jason, Rick, Ben, Bryce) autographs could obtain them fairly easily.

... my mistake: the seller did confirm in the listing that only Sergio and Jason were a part of Blyss.
Sorry I missed that part!

I don't know, sometimes things surface that haven't been seen before, but as always, it's hard to tell on ebay

Hello guys and girls,
I just wanted to say that I understand the skepticism. That is why I posted this ad. I am interested in this CD as well. I have contacted the seller as well and linked them to this thread explaining that there is interest if we can get a clip of "Take the weight". Let's see what happens.

The clip definitely gets my attention. It has a very familiar sound, kinda like You Can Shake the Mountains. Really wish they were touring right now so 1 of us board members could ask him himself about it first :/ |

I really like the way this song sounds. It feels so real! I guess I miss the rawer sound of the old days more than I thought...
