Then: Good song. Good memories.
Now: Good song. Good memories. Nostalgic depression.
Mike Gates nostalgic depression is called Saudade in Portuguese. Is a great word for expressing those kind of feelings
As Dr. Seuss said, "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened." Here we are able to relieve it and be transported, that's a magical blessing a miracle, a gift.

@@fernpearlsfriend4842 thank you kindly for sharing this information. #GiveThanks please? Do you speak Portuguese fluidly or fluently i mean?
@@timothyfloogle No, I don’t speak Portuguese. I can speak some Spanish. I don’t remember how I found out about Saudade, I was probably looking for a word or words to express the feelings. When I found the word it totally described it for me. So Saudade is it! When you get that heartache or nostalgic feeling bittersweet... you can look up how to pronounce it.
This music is like a deeply religious and profound experience for me. I’m 73 and I am a child of the 60s. The closest music that makes me feel anything like this was when I was young (19) and seeing The Grateful Dead at the Fillmore East in 1969. When they played DarkStar I was wildly tripping on acid. I saw the roof open up and saw Heaven. Naturally it was the drugs, the Dead, the audience, the venue and the times. I love all 3 parts and there’s a message of hope here. Something that in 2023 is sorely lacking. The third part makes me feel so very happy and want to dance. When I saw The Dead they would play Sugar Magnolia and I would go to the back and dance and twirl. It gave me such was a such feeling of freedom and vitality. I came upon this totally by accident. My wife went to a meeting and they gave out a CD and other things. The CD had various music on it including this entire song. It makes me feel so very good inside, happy to be alive and optimistic about the future. I cannot thank the person who posted this enough.
The feelings you describe you have while listening to this three part piece of music are also some of the same feelings I experience while listening to it. I have hit repeat on my cd player for this three part piece of music as much as, if not more than, any song I've heard in my life.
when the music goes beyond music to become a a tale, a journey.
a journey of relationships gone a wry to then be reunited...
Man, for some reason this quote keeps getting stuck in my head. I guess thats because its real
Perfect comment this is how I feel, the best songs, best music & lyrics are like boarding a magical flight, that's what Gary creates a transportation to a higher plane, this song is the perfect example of that reminds me of the first time I heard Strawberry Fields.
Mateus perfect comment...
Such melody songs would have made The Hobbit or Lord of the rings if asked
12:20 this part makes me wanna cry every time
"And in the middle of the flood, I felt my worth
When you held onto me like I was your little life raft
Please know that you were mine as well"
when i was young i used to tear up and cry every time this part played and i still do
I am here to tell you that i cry no matter what in this part. I need to know more about this song
[I - What If This Storm Ends?]
What if this storm ends?
And I don't see you
As you are now
Ever again
The perfect halo
Of gold hair and lightning
Sets you off against
The planet's last dance
Just for a minute
The silver forked sky
Lit you up like a star
That I will follow
Now it's found us
Like I have found you
I don't want to run
Just overwhelm me
What if this storm ends?
And leaves us nothing
Except a memory
A distant echo
I want pinned down
I want unsettled
Rattle cage after cage
Until my blood boils
I want to see you
As you are now
Every single day
That I am living
Painted in flames
All peeling thunder
Be the lightning in me
That strikes relentless
[II - The Sunlight Through The Flags]
From here the caravans are kids toys
And I can hold them all in my palm
I watch the sea creep round the corner
It connects the dots from here to you
The sunlight burning through the loose flags
Painted high on white church walls
I chase my blood from brain to thumped heart
Until I'm out of breath for trying
Worry not everything is sound
This is the safest place you've found
The only noise beating out is ours
Lacing our tea from honey jars
These accidents of faith and nature
They tend to stick in the spokes of you
But every now and then the trend bucks
And you're repaired by more than glue
Worry not everything is sound
This is the safest place you've found
The only noise beating out is ours
Lacing our tea from honey jars
Why don't you rest your fragile bones
A minute ago you looked alone
Stop waving your arms you're safe and dry
Breathe in and drink up the winter sky
[III - Daybreak]
Slowly the day breaks apart in our hands
And soft hallelujahs flow in from the church
The one on the corner you said frightened you
It was too dark and too large to find your soul in
Something was bound to go right sometime today
All these broken pieces fit together to make a perfect picture of us
It got cold and then dark so suddenly and rained
It rained so hard the two of us were the only thing
That we could see for miles and miles
And in the middle of the flood I felt my worth
When you held onto me like I was your little life raft
Please know that you were mine as well
Drops of water hit the ground like God's own tears
And spread out into shapes like
Salad bowls and basins and buckets for bailing out the flood
As motionless cars rust on driveways and curbs
You take off your raincoat and stretch out your arms
We both laugh out loud and surrender to it
The sheer force of sky and the cold magnet Earth
Thanks
thankyou for the words this has been insperation as my wife has been in long term care for almost a year, something had to go right some time today all these broken pieces, hope

@@azlittlebear I hope you feel ok...
@@timbertantrum7675 yes it ended with divorce and me owning the house after 50 years sadly
All three parts are amazing! it's just that each song is set for different aspects of life. Thumbs up if you agree. Snow Patrol is a great group with beautiful songs.
Too bad that just the 1st part got some recognition... the whole trilogy is amazing, especially the piano polirythms at part II.
Minimalism at its finest!!

And the storm ended
And I never saw her
As she was then,
ever again.

Your comment embodies the passing of time, and the inevitable death of all moments and experiences. I dig it.
12 years ago? Where tf have I even been?? ❤
This album (a hundred million suns ) means so much to me, I use to hate all these songs(my mom bought the album on her phone) I though they were so boring but when I got my first own phone I guess you could say( I-pod) i could only really listen to the i-tunes music my mom bought, for four years straight I’ve been listening to this album, it’s so special to me something just feels personal about that makes me want to cry bc it brings so many memories, I love every single song in this album i would never show this album to anyone unless that person meant a lot to me, I just got the cd at a record store (freaking out and surprised that I found it) everyday I come home from school I put on the cd and lay on my bed, the music it’s just so comforting and it helps me after a hard day. ( and yes I use a CD player for reasons)
Oh my goodness. Did I just find my soulmate? AHMS is my favorite SP album !
"And in the middle of the flood I felt my worth
When you held onto me like I was your little life raft
Please know that you were mine as well"
- I will never forget these lines. Someone I was dating years ago said this to me when I was at my lowest. We were both heartbroken from previous relationships and he was there to comfort me. Though we didn't end up together, I still think about him from time to time. How sweet it was for a beautiful song to remind him of me. I hope he still does.
People keep saying why they came here. Seen some of those scenes. BUT . . . Anyone come here for the music?
I'm here for the comment section, personally.
I'm here for the music I think its amazing I always imagine A fight scene in part 1 though XD
I heard this in an Amv and I positively had to come and check it out.
yes i found this song when looking up lyrical music to practice
Absolutely. I have loved Snow Patrol since Final Straw and needed no prompting but my own good taste in music to bring me here ..just like you mate.
My sister just asked me what my favorite song of all time was...and I thought long and hard..and just sent her this link.
The whole song just gave me chills. Not a lot of songs have that affect on me. This is FUCKING EPIC!
This should have been in Starlord's "Awesome Mix Vol. 1."
hahahaha agree
This couldn't have been in Starlord's "Awesome Mix Vol. 1". It doesn't fit into the canon timeline. Hate to be that guy, bro, but continuity.
daybreak- so simple so perfect
Daybreak is one of the best songs Snow Patrol has made. They’ve tons of great songs, but this one is a gem they didn’t let shine like it could. It would have been another chart topping hit. It’s never to late to make a 2021 single so it can become the hit I’m sure it is. Just don’t change the tempo or the sounds and everything that makes it the beautiful song it is on A Hundred Million Suns EP.
I have never heard of a song that goes for 16 minutes that is this good..
Awesome song writer and their music is spectacular. ❤
God bless everyone hearing this around the world 🌎
Snow Patrol is such an incredible band. Saw them in Nashville on the Fallen Empires tour a couple years ago. Can't wait for their next album (and next tour!).
Describes the twin flame journey. At least for me. It took me years to realize how much this track means to me
The movie Epic brought me here... i'm glad.
I can't stop listening to this. It's like an addiction.
This song means quite a bit to me, its the song that I was listening to when I first saw the woman who was later to become my girlfriend. She's helped me through so much and whenever I hear this song it reminds me of all that she's done for me.
Snow Patrol is amazing. There is no arguing that point.
Wish I knew how that felt. *insert forever alone face here*
Gavin Yetts That's really beautiful. Does she know this?
jade napier She does, yes.
And after 4 years together, she leaves me for someone else...
Oh...... sorry to hear that, something similar happened to me but i'm over it because i found someone who cares more
One of the best things I love about this band is their lyricism.
5 years of nostalgia accumulated makes me cry every time
I literally play this exact video and fall asleep to it every single night right when I go to bed. It calms me down and helps me fall asleep better, absolutely love it.
before this video,, i only listened to this song on an old ipod. i was envisioning the storm and sunlight before i even realised it was intentional. its incredible how music can paint images without visual aid.
Eventually I find myself back here, going with the beautiful, sombre, melodic flow. Never fails.
This might be the most beautiful thing I've ever listened to.
This is one of my favorites of Snow Patrol. The whole 16:18 is amazing.
'Please know, that you were mine as well.' This is just fantastic!
+jonvoltage1
One of the piece's best and most touching lines. :P
This one took me a while. I'm infinitely glad I stuck with it, though, and now I realize it was composed just...for...ME.
listening to this right now in december 2019, brought tears to my eyes the nostalgia is so huge my entire body is shivering as this song plays. i honestly love this song so much. thankful to be alive.
Here since the long before. Snow Patrol is a wonder. True everlasting
Snow Patrol brought me here.
I brought myself here.
RUclips brought me here
AppleSeeds My computer brought me here
Callum2998 My brought computer here me
the most amazing person in the world brought me here :,)
'Epic' trailer brought me here...
One of the best songs in human history
this song is pure mistery and i just love it. dont care why people is here, just enjoy this piece of art
mystery or mastery?
My fave Snow Patrol song, so love this song in full, parts 1 - 3. Snow Patrol are fantastic.
I am a Diné from the Navajo Nation. I adore this. I play piano and multiple instruments. This whole song takes me to another dimension
Wow. I didn't realize there were so many people who didn't know Snow Patrol. But I'm glad they're getting the attention they deserve. :D
I got here because I absolutely LOVE Snow Patrol....glad the Epic trailer is getting Snow Patrol some attention.
I love listening to this song whilst I nap. :3
This song... this song remind me something, something that I want confess, because my soul still crying every night.
The last ten months I been missing someone, someone that I loved with all I've inside me. She was my life, the happines painted in my lips; drawing a smile, the joy to my soul, the blessing of my spirit.. but now she took all, everything. I got NOTHING.
All this hurt inside, burning in pieces.
I love this whole song! I love how this song is kind of like a storm, how the skies are just starting to darken, then it rains, and then you get clear skies again. perfect.
My all time favorite. I can't seem to get enough of this.
10:00 PART III "Day break" intro Into heaven!! I think this in concert is pure gold.
The song sends me goosebumps every time... I love this song.
how does this only have 400 thousand views? should be a few million by this point...
Agreed
Its unknow I just started listening
Maybe a hundred million?
Don’t you mean a few hundred million?
Wow. You can totally feel the storm around you when u listen to this... wow :)
This song puts amazing pictures into your head. Brilliant song. First part was the best part of the song in my opinion, thumbs up if you agree :)
I've been listening to this song for 3 hours now, and it's still beautiful.
I dunno what Epic is but I love Snow Patrol.
It’s been 7/8 years since I last heard this song completely and it brings back so many memories! 😭
The last part is my favorite.
I will always be a die-hard Snow Patrol fan :)
I'll never get tired of listening to Snow Patrol :) BEST BAND EVER!
Wow...didn't know about this group...they have something...amazing song. I want to listen all their songs..
Wow, this is already like a saga. Amazing.
This song is what made the movie trailer truly Epic.
One of the most glorious pieces of music ever made. No one better than Gary Lightbody! XOXO
There are no words in this world in which I can use to express the way I feel while listening to part one of this unbelievable symphony.
A qualcuno può far comodo =D
0:00 - What If This Storm Ends?
5:22 - The Sunlight Through the Flags
9:30 - Daybreak
This is my theme song of this age. It makes me think of all the warriors I was so fortunate to know during the height of their prowess and how I will not forget the awesome sight of them in full glorious rage before they fell and the storm passed. I should be so honored that they would remember me the same.
After not hearing this for about a year, I saw the Epic trailer and had an attack of reminiscence. Why is this so beautiful and moving?
Everyone is stating what brought them here. I came here because I really like Snow Patrol's music. Its great. Really. The style really gets me going. Makes me slightly sad. Whatever.
Its still great music.
Snow Patrol your great.
Love it.
In the beginning the Universe was created. This angered lots of people and is regarded as a bad move
in the beginning there was nothing and before there was nothing there was death
My personal favorite is The Sunlight Through the Flags, I love the lyrics & the feeling. But the 1st part is definitely the most epic, and Daybreak compliments parts I and II well.
Yeah, they had that hit "Chasing Cars." It was my sister's wedding song. I remember buying the album for her as a wedding gift, and setting it to play as she and her new husband walked (unsuspecting) into the reception we had set up for her. I remember her tears of joy.
Oh yes. I am very well aware of Snow Patrol, which is why I was delighted to know they still make excellent music.
This song is everything that a song should be! Wow, Snow Patrol. Thank you!
Something was bound to go right today...you made this video which is my life raft...Thanks
great song, never heard better music
Don’t know how i listened to this song five times in a row, maybe because it was nostalgic and brings back memories, and it’s very depressing it has piano, guitar, and incredible vocals and lyrics, let me know what I missed guys…
I don’t think it’s depressing at all. In fact I find it to be a song of hope. It’s upbeat and gorgeous.
Here me out that was 5 months ago 😂, I’ve kinda changed my mind, it just kept reminding me of bad memories, I do see what you mean though
i listen to this that much i feel half of the 682,002 views was me. im surprised that this was uploaded in 2011 and doesnt even have 1m yet
im here not for a movie but because i am a snow patrol fan
This song is epic, yet so beautiful at the same time. It's exploding with much emotion.
Best. Song. Ever.
No discussion about this..!
You'll get no argument from me.
sadghost not only is it the best song(s), but it is my favorite. That means alot.
I agree 1000% ..it has been a favorite of mine since it came out.
There is always room for discussion! A top for me as well!
Please believe me this man has saved my life on many occasions
Snow Patrol at its very best, pure genius 💜
The love of great music brought me here
Get chills just listening to the beginning. Thanks Act of Valor for introducing me to this beautiful song.
The melodic, orderly yet noisy crescendo in "What If This Storm Ends" is simply fantastic. This is a symphony of musical art just like Exogenesis. It's got Matt Bellamy written in it somewhere.
Goosebumps from the EPIC trailer sent me here.
This song always makes me think of the friends that have left this life in the prime of their life, full of life and adventure. I will always remember them in their glory days and how they dared to live love and dance in the middle of the storm.
Beautiful tribute
This epic song fits Epic's epic-ness. So much epic-ness. I cant wait for this movie to come out!!
I don't know why but this song just like sends me through every emotion. It's beautiful.
I wrote a story inspired by part I, and hope to write stories inspired by the next two later. Can't publish them because they vaguely include lyrics from the songs, but still
Just go on with the writing bit! :) I would love to read whatever you come up with as this is actually my fav song.
Melanie Stoffel Its a good song for Romeo and Juliet when you think about it. Just read the lyrics
that moment when you hear a song or 3 that you didn't know you needed❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
EXCELENTE GRUPO Y SUS CANCIONES
Heard this song like a year ago, to this day still gives me de chills.
Thank you kindly for sharing this song and every movement of it! #GiveThanks please?
I never knew that the three songs are a part of one greater one, you my good sir have effectively blown my mind and made these three songs far better to me.
What if Ths Storm Ends makes you want to hold on to the things you love never let them go, because one day, they'll leave and completely change, changing the way you loved them.
The Sunlight Through the Flags has that happy bubbly feeling, telling you life is life so get up and dance. That you are young at the heart and nothing will melt that away.
Daybreak, is the grand finale. A combo of both songs. It has that happy feeling, but the lyrics mean something else.
ALL THREE SONGS ARE AMAZING
Thumbs up if you're here only because you love this song, no matter which film/movie trailer you've watched!
Wow just listened, really listened to all 16.18 minutes of it. Spectacular.
Something was bound to go right sometime today
All these broken pieces fit together
To make a perfect picture of us
whoa!! i'm guilty of first hearing the song on the Epic trailer but wow its soooo good....and its 16:00 minutes!??! artists should make more music like THIS!!!!!!
YES! Thank you for posting the entire song!
I spent hours searching for it last year! Many thanks!
