When we’re on our own No time to go home You say the simple things A smile it always brings And I see you, as you want me to As you want me to… That’s how I see you When we’re on our way No thoughts for today You look toward the sky Dreaming you could fly And you see me, as I want to be As I want to be… That’s how you see me
They kept playing these guys on Pandora in my "The Ocean Blue" radio station. Picked up the album and like the whole thing. If you like these guys check out TOB album Cerulean. It is a treat.
I fell in love with my ex boyfriend to this song, my sister sent me this song to me when I was going to Arizona on the greyhound and this song hit my heart and soul, when I arrived in Arizona I saw him waiting for me and when I played the song I just saw him how he was beautiful. We ended up playing this song in his car and we started driving around phoniex while blasting this song. This song helped me with my bestfriends death and made me fell in love more with my ex. This band helped a lot after the break up. She’s been a fan of this band when she discovered them years ago.
And that is exactly why I´ve been into Shoegaze for the last 30 years! It´s real music, made by real people about real things! Things we live n feel! Don´t talk to me about no stairway to heaven! Don´t give me no costumes. attitude or outfits! I want music! F%&k Rockstars! When you´re done jumping, screaming and freaking out...How about u actually play some music???? I just so love unprententious people and unpretentious music! The few, the proud...The Shoegazers!
I just discovered this most wonderful melody. This rhyme, this rhythm, this poem takes not to far back to a very beautiful, wonderful time in my life when my spirit was afloat in the heavens in love with a beautiful soul. She’s gone now; but this wonderful lyric, this wonderful song takes be to those intimate white, silky , sexy nights; of passion and euphoria…. I miss it…. I long for that again. Thank you for this great band. I look forward to one day seeing them come to L.A.
E incrível como tempo passa, esse vídeo tem minha idade literalmente, 17 anos, esse estilo de música faz eu refletir muito sobre o tempo, sei lá estou começando ver que minha adolescência está acabando....
If you like Shoegaze, there are actually some new great bands. Check out Pinkshinyultrablast, Ringo Deathstarr or Contrast, they're all awesome...but Slowdive rules!!!
I've been having this song in my head for over a week but forgot the name and artist. Haven't listened to it in years. I tried googling what I thought were the lyrics of the song, I knew the album cover had power lines on it and it finally hit me at 1am! Search "on our own." Found it! I feel so complete listening to this dreamy song! It came out way ahead of it's time. I wish everyone in the world would listen to this song. It may change their lives for the better. At the end of our lives we're really "on our own." Blessings to all of Earths inhabitants!
America does have some of the most awesome Shoegaze bands ever! Check out Drop Nineteens or Airiel although I won't argue the UK has given us most of them! We are the few, the proud...The Shoegazers!!!
I saw them in Silver Lake somewhere. They are a great shoegaze band. I have their first album and I can't stop listening to it. This is my favorite song on the album. It is home to me.
I love it... I don't know what I was saying in last comment (yeah I'm a weirdo... but a music lover. I got kicked out of The Dwarves playing in Lake Worth 3 years ago... only cuz got drinking too early... but Richie Ramone... I saw his band plus the other... I think from wpb... But all I'm saying... its okay for me to appreciate a song like this...so lovely
Great tone and sound. There is a great deal of room for all opinions and ideas. Love that this song somehow sparked so much debate. Radiohead is Radiohead and Meeting Places are what they are. Oxford England and LA are far apart. lets give ourselves a break from blogging and grab our instruments...Write your best song today
rubixkid, thanks for the upload. nice song from a band i found out about recently. have you heard "freeze our stares"? id love for someone to upload that mesmerizing song!
This is a place i could hang at all fucking day! Throw some art on the wall, have some beer, some cigs, plenty of people walking through that door. I AM SET
1) Most indie bands look "awkward". That's part of their appeal. They're just average joes/janes making music for other average joes/janes. 2) Sonically, they sound a lot more like Slowdive than they do MBV. Kevin Shields doesn't use that amount of reverb/delay. Plus, the lead guitarist in TMP used to play in a band with Brad Lanier, one of the founders of '90s shoegazers Medicine. They have a pedigree for doing this kind of music. People get to the same place by many different roads.
Christian Mendieta Standard tuning, capo at third fret, chords are mostly major 7ths. Verses are D#maj7 to G#maj7. Choruses are A#maj7 to G#maj7. To get this sound, think REVERB (lots of it), delay (a fair amount of that, too) and some sort of modulation-- chorus, preferably. If you want a huge sound, run it in stereo into two amps (I use a Roland JC 120, because I like the clean sound and it allows me to use any sort of effects I want to change the sound). This should give you enough to get started. Now, get yourself a drummer and bass player and form your own shoegaze/dreampop band ;-)
Hey buddy I'm here for you. Tuning is just standard E though they a K-bowing the 4th frett playing standard chord progressions. Amp wise it's set slightly lower on the frequency/tone levels and a huge ton of reverb! I personally Love amazing reverb!
one of the best songs ever made, and it was released exactly 3 days before I was born
To anyone here in 2020, you got great taste in music.
you too:)
👏🏽👏🏽
you sir are wise
TMP forever 💘🦖
Yesss... Wonderful taste of music..💖🥰
When we’re on our own
No time to go home
You say the simple things
A smile it always brings
And I see you, as you want me to
As you want me to…
That’s how I see you
When we’re on our way
No thoughts for today
You look toward the sky
Dreaming you could fly
And you see me, as I want to be
As I want to be…
That’s how you see me
If the album that this song is on came out in any other era other than the one it did came out in, it would be so well known
This song leaves you with such a good feeling. It's kind of like sitting in heaven for about 4 minutes......
*This is such a bloody fantastic song, absolutely ethereal to say the least. Love love love!*
It´s just the beautiful noise! The few, the proud...The Shoegazers!!!
@@darthsaya8032 *YES YES! INDEED!!!!*
underrated
Very underrated.
Surprised that this was nearly a decade ago, it sounds like modern Indie/Dream Pop. On that note, these type of songs always make me feel sad :(
10 YEARS! This song is officially 10 years old now.
this makes me happy sad
Way better than anything I can find today, to be honest.
@@Gsupreme909 Saaame! And yes, this is the music I wish were on the radio.
they just release some new music!!
They kept playing these guys on Pandora in my "The Ocean Blue" radio station. Picked up the album and like the whole thing. If you like these guys check out TOB album Cerulean. It is a treat.
I've heard this song a thousand times, I can't get enough
Music for the few, not the many....
if only we can go back in time.

These guys look like legends in this freakin video and they weren't even trying
Unpretentious music ends up having much more attitude!!!

I love the feeling I get when I hear this song. Its totally awash with that ShoeGaze wonder. I absolutely crave it.
Finally an amazing shoegazerband! I miss Slowdive but I'm happy to find the meeting places....

@@darthsaya8032 he was on this 12 years ago tho lol your comment comes 10 years later when Shoegaze came back to life
*One of my favorite songs, I found this right when I started college and now I'm 2 years past that still looking back to these nostalgic entities.*
SHOEGAZE: GENRE 🎸
I'm always blown away every time I hear this song, reminds me of Portland Oregon for a very special reason... :)

Pandora brought me here off the radio dept radio :)
supermanboss the ocean blue
Same! The band 'Washed Out' also has a similar sound.
I absolutely *love* this song. Shoegazing at its finest.
16 years since you commented this lmao
Spotify brought me here. I think I have a new favourite band. Happy to see they're releasing stuff in 2019. Sorry I missed you first time around.
Ugh... can't help coming back to this
The Best Shoegaze From UK!!!! But Meeting Places a Good band From U.S.A, SHOEGAZE FOREVER!!!!
America does have some of the most awesome Shoegaze bands ever! Check out Drop Nineteens or Airiel although I won't argue the UK has given us most of them!
We are the few, the proud...The Shoegazers!!!
@@darthsaya8032
I agree with you, I send you greetings from México and long life to the fantastic shoegaze!!
@@Uly_Sandoval_303 Saludos de vuelta bro! Yo soy mexicano pero vivo en España! Sigue escuchando música tan buena que como el Shoegaze nada! 😎🤟

Simple song,simple cord changes,yet I can't stop listening to it lol :)
The beauty of simplicity! Good music minus the customes!
So simple yet profound ....... thank you for your creation ❤❤❤
I can’t get over how 2000s this music video is
This is the best song released this decade... it seemingly never gets tired.
Brings back all sorts of memories. Good times.
Discovered this band through Pandora. They really deserve more exposure.
I saw them in Silver Lake somewhere. They are a great shoegaze band. I have their first album and I can't stop listening to it. This is my favorite song on the album. It is home to me.
Love this ❤❤
Reminds me of Day Wave, The Ocean Blue, Craft Spells... Thank you for sharing this ❤
geez man i miss the 90s... *sigh*

this is the most romantic song of all time. the video is perfect.
Love this....a long time fan of bliss... but stopped buying records in 2000 (ya old geezer).... ran across on Pandora and have loved it ever since

Can't believe this came out 7 years ago.

For me "Now I Know You Could Never Be The One" is the best from the CD.
Real Estate meets Slowdive

what kind of camera was used to shoot this video?
'blur the line', 'now i know you could never be the one'
It's beautiful to be wimpy
He says the best song this decade, but In Rainbows had a ton of songs that all topped this song lolz.
Three people don't know what they're missing.
wajobu ikr
Radiohead in the REO Speedwagon of the 2000's.
Are they the echo of Slowdive or is it just I who finds the resemblance?
primer gran tema de un garn debut nacia el nu gaze...
Does anyone know what amps, etc. you need to get this sound? Or what tuning? THANKS for whoever can answer :)
Christian Mendieta Standard tuning, capo at third fret, chords are mostly major 7ths. Verses are D#maj7 to G#maj7. Choruses are A#maj7 to G#maj7.
To get this sound, think REVERB (lots of it), delay (a fair amount of that, too) and some sort of modulation-- chorus, preferably. If you want a huge sound, run it in stereo into two amps (I use a Roland JC 120, because I like the clean sound and it allows me to use any sort of effects I want to change the sound).
This should give you enough to get started. Now, get yourself a drummer and bass player and form your own shoegaze/dreampop band ;-)
Hey buddy I'm here for you. Tuning is just standard E though they a K-bowing the 4th frett playing standard chord progressions.
Amp wise it's set slightly lower on the frequency/tone levels and a huge ton of reverb! I personally Love amazing reverb!
Bloody brilliant is how it sounds on acoustic. Listen for yourself:

What gear was used in this video?
pandora!!!
2022
Yup - Pandora.
These guys still active?
Ben Foshager you bet your gosh darn rear end they are
YES, I'm planning on seeing them in Long Beach, California on November 18th. Only 5$ at the door.
