When Chris was 15 his Uncle Angelo bought him a guitar.
Chris began teaching himself how to play, but he didn't
become serious about music until the very end of high
school. He was too busy skateboarding.
Right after high school, Chris started playing with the
Vacant Andys, his first serious band. After several years
with the Vacant Andys and a one-album stint with The
Agency, Chris went on to play with Further Seems Forever.
While he was with FSF he started a solo side-gig and took a
chance with an acoustic sound. Dashboard Confessional began
when he recorded the Drowning EP for Fiddler Records.
The name Dashboard Confessional comes from one of Chris'
songs, "The Sharp Hint of New Tears". The line "On the way
home, this car hears my confessions." made the phras More...

------ About the song Stolen performed by Dashboard Confessional
This song reminds me of an old friend. We admitted we liked each other and have grown apart since when we were seperated by schools, now every time I call he doesn't talk to me used to. I can't stop thinking about him but we never are able to meet up. Sometimes I get the feeling someones thinking about me and I lie on my bed and hope that it's him. Some day I'll get the courage, I'll say I need him, I'll say I want him and most of all I'll say I love him.
I hope.

------ About the song For You to Notice performed by Dashboard Confessional
There's this senior that I like, and he's never had a girlfriend and he's really shy. I ended up getting stoned with him and a bunch of friends and we ended up making out. I asked him, in my stoned state, if this woud just be a one-night stand and he said no. We've been talking a little, but we're both shy. I'm just really hoping this all works out.
My Story | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Screaming Infidelities performed by Dashboard Confessional
I think for me the two parts that describe my situation the best is when he says, "As for now I'm gonna hear the saddest songs, and sit alone and wonder, how you're making out" and also "I hope you're as happy as you're pretending." Me and my ex girlfriend still have feelings for each other and I really want to be with her and make her happy but I haven't been given the chance yet. Sometimes I'll be sitting at home writing my own songs and I'm just distracted by thinking of her that I never get much done. Reading some of these reviews, I see a lot of other people are touched by this song in the way that I am so it helps to know you're not the only one.

This song reminds me of a boy and a girl..
They're the best friends in the world, and they can talk about everything together. She makes him smile whenever he sees her. In fact, he's fallen for her, but he wants her to be happy..
For now, she's dating a dude, which is treating her bad. her feeling towards him are blinding her, and the only one seeing it, is her friend. And recently, he told her what he hinks of her BF. It totally broke her heart. And now he's sitting here, the day after the storm, thinking about what to do next..

For all the broken hearts: | Reviewer: Salokin S. Schatnop
------ About the song Screaming Infidelities performed by Dashboard Confessional
My life the past two months has been hell. I suppose you could call me the victim of another failed long distance relationship. It was perfect: 3 years of dating, first relationship for either of us, and so many hard, hard moments that we persevered through and drew us even more into love with one another. I thought we were unbreakable.
As if I can't stop thinking about her, this song just *had* to come up randomly on my iHome. I know I'm going to play this over and over again tonight, to the tune of my own sleeplessness and guilt. I'm sure there are many of you guys out there who would urge me to move on and find a "new love," but I in turn assure you that I absolutely can not. I had someone who showed me what true happiness was. I used to fall asleep some nights just smiling, in awe of how incredibly blessed I was to have such a beautiful, loving girlfriend. Now, if I can even muster myself to sleep, I find myself lost in the memories, as the song says, "I'm cuddling close to blankets and sheets, I am alone in my defeat." As a busy college kid, I have a lot of pressures on me from a lot of angles. I thought when I left home I wouldn't change. Well, I did, and I became someone I am ashamed of. And now -- it's simply too late.
She's been seeing a guy lately, or at least hanging out with him a whole lot, and I can't help my clenched fists shaking uncontrollably at the thought of his face. I would never act rashly or violently, but the pain is so deep I constantly think about how I want to hurt him. If you've read this far, then you might have felt some kind of emotional connection with my words. As an aspiring author, I've found it is often a good thing to write in a raw, uninhibited manner. It helps draw the audience into the story. But I'm writing these words now for me. Everyone needs a release and this is mine.
I do have one final comfort, though. I booked an impromptu flight (wasn't cheap), and I'm going back soon. I'm calling it a final chance at redemption. Maybe all I'll get is a slap on the face and a goodbye, but for some reason, some small part of me can't help but hope. Until then, I hope all of you find some kind of comfort. Maybe it's in writing, as it is for me. Maybe it's in this song. Whatever it is, don't ever forget - you are never alone in this.

------ About the song Stolen performed by Dashboard Confessional
"This song speaks for so many people. Everybody has a love story that it reminds them of. I'm still in love with my ex. He still likes me, but I know that he'll never feel the same way about me as I do about him. This song helps me deal with it."
Whoever wrote this, I was thinking the exact same thing.. It made me laugh when you wrote "everybody has a story that it reminds them of" because the first time I heard this song, it brought me back to where I was with my ex boyfriend. I will always be crazy over him. Anyways, for all of those with broken hearts, look up and you'll find guidance, and for those who are trying to tell someone that you love them, you should tell them even though it is hard because but we don't live forever, and nobody wants to wonder "what could have been" :)
keep smiling everybody! Music sends a beautiful message!

Wife gone | Reviewer: D.
------ About the song Even Now performed by Dashboard Confessional
This song says exactly how I feel right now. After five years my wife has left. I keep wondering where we both went wrong, but I think we let our daily routine complicate our passion. I keep waking up in the middle of the night thinking that she's right next to me. Smelling her clothes that are still here, standing in our closet looking at an empty space where her clothes used to be. Even now I feel her presence here, but she's gone. She'll always be in my heart. I still hope that she'll come back one day.

------ About the song Remember to Breathe performed by Dashboard Confessional
Dude, the POINT is for it to be simple. It's a stream of consciousness, a raw reflection of someone's thought process. Think of it like this: when you're reading a book, while the narration might be extremely poetic, thoughtful, and full of fancy literary techniques, the dialogue will not be (unless the only people who speak in the book are all writers). And that's what this is: someone's internal dialogue. That's what makes this song amazing: it just feels so real. Even Shakespeare's characters sometimes spoke like a commoner.

------ About the song Stolen performed by Dashboard Confessional
this song reminds me of the time a boy and a girl were so into each other
of the fires he lit and it warmed her soul and of the sounds of the waves crashing to shore and he told her it he's got her as his mermaid and the moon was shining and they could feel the breeze,
and she found her home in his heart
of the times he told her he loved her
but i guess it's time to move on.
beautiful song.

------ About the song Vindicated performed by Dashboard Confessional
this song felt like diary to me last year, through all the sins and mistakes i commited, i never learned, but at the same time, i couldnt let go of those people who meant the most to me,even if it was better for them to leave.
i realised this far to late, but im moving on,
perhaps i got a different message in this song,
but it touched me in the heart never the less.

everything from this band is so heartfelt... the lyrics and music blend perfectly together, beautiful to listen to....
man, it's so beautiful

this is the music
when i listen to dashboard, i feel it, man, i feel it...
Alright, so the artist didn't intend for the song to reflect the story of ender's game, or ender's shadow. that being said i agree wholeheartedly that as important as an artist's intentions are, each individuals experiences will bring them to the song from a different angle. If you don't see it as being about ender, it isn't. If you see it as being about ender or bean, it is. The beauty of art is that reaches us where we are, as individuals, and because of that there are very few if any incorrect understandings of a piece of art. Personally i find the song to be wonderfully written, and can see why you might think that it reflects the story of Ender, or even Bean as he looks up to Ender throughout the story. Awesome song ^_^

------ About the song Screaming Infidelities performed by Dashboard Confessional
I was with an amazing girl for about 6 months (longest relationship I've been in - I'm only 18). I dumped her because I didn't have time to be in a relationship with University coming up next year. I broke up with her because I couldn't devote the needed time to be a good boyfriend.
I've recently discovered that time is not the brick and mortar to a relationship. Instead, it's the bond that the couple holds. I've been regretting my decision for the past month, and with university around the corner, I know nothing would ever last between the two of us - that hurts to realize that.
I guess we all make mistakes...

I love this song, It makes me feel so much better. It reminds me of a bf I had, It was amazing while we were together. Now, hes with a different girl every day. We still talk, he calls me often. Everytime he calls, I cant stop smileing. But, I know that we will NEVER get back together. I still love him. But, I guess its time to move on.
i have finally fallen for a guy who lives on the next street over (pretty much a boy next door) and he has to leave for football and i have cries so much that i dont have any tears left!!! i cant even describe how much i love him!!! he can be a jerk but no matter how much he is cockey or nething i cant stop loveing him and...i just dont know what ti say i want to and need to cry to get over it but i cant get the tears
