There is something so sad about watching people who are long gone. That they existed for that time and did and thought and felt the same things we do but now they no longer exist. Perhaps some day you or I will also be on some 100 year-old footage on RUclips and people will be thinking the same - how fleeting it all is and how we all tried so hard and how we all shared the earth for a period but have all disappeared now and a new batch of humanity has taken over. And so it will go on.
We ourselfs may only be loved for a short time, even so that will suffice. There is a land for the living, and a land for the dead
You will be remembered as a comment on a RUclips video and I will be remembered as someone commenting on a comment on a RUclips channel. It's all very humbling...
Thank you for this
Jesus wept this comment was 10 years ago. An entire third of my life
@@fenthwikthey are still active on youtube I wonder if they ever return to watch this again ?
I was lucky enough to see British Sea Power playing their soundtrack to this film at Latitude 2013. As a BSP fan, I thought it was the best thing they've ever done. As a writer, I was lost in inspiration and envy. As a grouchy, calloused northern bastard, I wept the whole way through. Live, this provokes an extraordinary reaction in the viewer. Full credit to the filmmakers who made something wonderful. But no one else can touch this band at their best. Extraordinary.
Eight years late, thankyou for this Pete. I was in that Film & Music tent with the same emotions. The most intense, gorgeously sad, beautiful combination. Utterly, utterly wonderful. Sometimes try to think if they knew quite what they'd achieved.
I like how many of them looked happy despite severe hardship.
They looked right at he camera and smiled - like it was the biggest compliment you could pay them.
Amazing film. Tapping into every British psyche. Coastal sadness and loss.
Yes each of them lived a life and died. Each had a life story to tell full of their own individual hopes, fears, aspirations and conclusions.
This was a real BBC gem - music was just perfect. Who ever put this all together should be congratulated.
One day we will be no more. Beautiful
To see those people on this film looking at the camera in wonderment not knowing that in over a century later we would be looking back in even more wonderment. THANKS B.B.C and you BRITISH SEA POWER for the most beautiful music put to film JUST BEAUTIFUL
Pleased to say it will be released as a CD at the end of the year.
9 years later what's a CD ?
I brought this on DVD after seeing it on BBC iplayer...amazing,....i love the way it makes you feel that you are stopped still looking at everything around you , past and present, how we got here, and where we are going, very moving...making you appreciate all you have... well done. very moving, will always stay in my collection
Yeah I find myself feeling nostalgia for the time even though I wasn't born. Or maybe was in a previous life?
Yep I have the DVD and dafdaffer is my dad lol
What is the name of the DVD and how does one in America get a hold of it? 😯
Also, some of the film footage is of the Morecambe sea front, showing part of the Westend Pier. Extremely moving piece of work.
caught this on bbc4 the other night...a wonderful bit of tv and a superlative sound track well done....well worth the licence fee
I know the soundtrack is just a reworking of existing songs but they are all amazing. Plus I'm getting to see them live again as they're supporting Editors on their UK tour. What a treat everyone is in for! :)
this was repeated on BBC4 recently & it was just as engrossing 2nd time around. great soundtrack by British Sea power adds to the films quality.
This film was pretty special!
Thanks.
Beautifully Brilliant... In Many Ways... Saved Forever.

Its still fills so special...
Well we all end up somewhere.
...I think people should learn to be a bit more selfish and go after the life they really want, and that means not succumbing to the pressure of marriage and children of they feel it's not for them Make sure you try to remain as free as possible by being comfortable with your own solitude - there is a lot of meaning to be found in time spent alone, quietly contemplating things and your place in the universe. We are really so insignificant, smaller than a grain of sand. Do what you want/love.
Amazing piece of music
Sublime compilation of video and ethereal music.
And now it's gone from BBC iPlayer. What a shame as it was one of the most interesting and evocative programmes I've seen since... well, I don't think I've seen anything like it actually. Unique and emotional, with a perfect soundtrack. Why do the Beeb keep all their games-shows on their demand service, but the shows we'd actually like to return to get removed?
Thanks for the reply I saw the TV programme the other night with this piece of music plus others Very good to see no inane chatter over it As you say our minds are distracted by all the other nonsence going on around us all of the time Stay Kool
People back then. Even the poorest and back breaking class. They are still wearing their clothe to be at bestest in all ocassion. Its very fascinating!!
I always think of her when i listen to it
this is pretty great!
So right Oliver,well said :-)
I like your word 'conclusions'...
Now you do what they tell ya.
My guess would be that the BFI footage was only licensed for a set length of time which is now expired and therefore had to take it down.
the western plain is gone
We've lost something
That's why we need Jacob Rees-Mogg as Prime Minister
I don’t think Mogg can recover what’s lost. I’m talking about a time before the dawn of film and photography, when we only had mirrors that reflected back our image.
Good-o!
Me wanna know too, especially the opening & closing track, in an orchestral version, called "The Land Beyond" - audio anywhere? (lossless preferred.)
Greetings from China.
And when you have moments when you see some sort of meaning but you cannot define it (such as when listening to a beautiful piece of music like this), cling to it and keep searching for those similar moments of clarity. I don't know where those moments come from but they seem to say that there is this incredible force in the universe that becomes apparent when our minds are distracted from all the nonsense of life and we see or hear or create something beautiful. Don't accept mediocrity...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but is this a re-working of True Adventures? Having listened to FTSTTLB Soundtrack there isn't a reworking of that song on there?
Nevermind it's off Man of Aran isn't it? 'It Comes Back Again'.
What does it all mean??????????
just dvd I think
any soundtrack by the mighty BSP is ok by me
Has this or will this be released as a soundtrack album?

As the kids say, first!
I don't know. I don't think life has any specific meaning. I think people make the mistake of thinking meaning is going to come to them but if you are going to get any meaning from life, you have to search for it yourself. I think finding one or more thing that you really love and perfecting that is one way of giving your life meaning. I also think people should think more about the 'rules' that have been drummed into us since birth about the 'proper' way to live...
Unlike the band that was called British sea power I'm proud to call myself Scottish and British.
