I used to have a very heavy chronic disease. Years on end I spent all my time in bed. This song became my theme song in 2017. When I listen to it, I still feel that despair and suffering. But most of all, thank you for the feeling of hope. After 7 years in bed, I am healthy again.
This is a very powerful video for a lot of personal reasons. Sam was actually in leg braces for much of his young life. But one time he had to outrun a truck full of bullies and the leg braces broke off. From that point on, he was runnin'. Also played football at Alabama and started a successful shrimp boat fleet. Still loves to run.
thats so cruel, making fun at Vietnam vet
hmmm....for some reason. ...his story seems oddly familiar to me....I can't quite put my finger on it ....on who the story reminds me of..don't u hate wen that happens? I kno i do...it's probably all in my head.
I like to know everything about him Help!!! making me happy after a lousy day
The house bunny when the girl the body brace runs after that guy she fancies and the brace falls off?
fcoll9123 I'm pretty sure her name was Jenny
Every time I listen to Future Islands I feel myself a better person
therapy, though )
Max Darkstar it’s a good thing
So I'm not the only one? That's GREAT!!
Ditto
@@Sogonrei lol
Most underrated band in the history of underrated bands
Lee Painter That award goes to The Chameleons
And XTC..criminally ignored.
Im with ya Lad! btw what d'you think of this one: ruclips.net/video/qOCvS-Iect8/видео.html
I rated to stay underrated more music for me, yes I’m selfish 🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣 I know the feeling@@luisbenitez1294🤣 how would you rate this one? ruclips.net/video/qOCvS-Iect8/видео.html
His voice is mesmerising. My favourite band of recent years.
Tara Mulholland saw him live he’s shit
Take one step back and literally FUCK YOUR OWN FACE!!!
Fun Times he is lol
TheDarkDragon 87 look at your account homie. who’s gonna trust your opinion on this? shouldn’t you be critiquing some anime theme songs?
@@thedarkdragon8733 It's fine if you didn't enjoy him live but he definitely isn't "shit," dude. That would be Fortnite.
Another one of those guys that you look at and say, "that voice comes out of that guy?" I've heard people say they don't like his voice, but I love how unique it is. He doesn't sound like anyone else.
It has sooooo much fucking power in it. It's raw emotion.
@@em_birch To me, his voice has an early Motown quality that I didn't recognize without the context for awhile. Then I heard it on the "Seasons" remix.
@@Deguello23 The difference between his speaking voice and singing voice is so drastic too. It's...kinda magical to me, the way he sings.
And knowing he's from a place not too far away from where I live gives me so much secondhand pride. He's so cool.
@@em_birch I get it:) I had my mind blown a little when I saw him on an episode of "what's in my bag" and he he turned out to be an old hip-hop head. I even have a few friends like that, that just don't radiate that at all but can really geek out on old hip-hop. I'm not really like that, but stuff like that always makes me a much bigger fan of an artist, when they're grazing places you'd never suspect.:)
@@Deguello23 Yeah. Sam's relatable to me in other ways. You're right about those little, human things making us feel closer to musicians and artists (not in a weird way).
Those connections are important too, imo. Especially with more of us being isolated now. We can see ourselves in these people, in some ways. We feel less alone.
This is an underrated band. The lead singer is amazing and so are the lyrics of every song.
This song will always remind me of the 5 days I spent away from you in Oklahoma. You found this song and told me to listen to it, that it made you think of me and miss me. The first time I listened to it I cried. Its 6 months later and even though you chose a different path, away from me, I will always love you and think of you when I hear it. ❤
Update: We couldn't stay away from each other. We will celebrate our 4th year on 08/04/20. We saw Future Islands in concert together and still consider them to be one of "our bands". ♥️
Thanks! I try.
In your mind dig a hole and bury these haters. Thank you for your beautiful story.
Happy fourth year! - 10:37AM 08-04-20
Excuse, but I don't know you...
@@masongoodwin7641 Excuse? What do you mean by that..
Just what this year needs, some new Future Islands
Skynetz I'm getting a New Order/Joy Division vibe here.
mate, can you please tell me what is that symbol you're using there? Seen it on Ninja's arm. ????
Aphex Twin's logo ; )
Neel 2000 + Bingo!
@@Neel-ff4mn Very good observation! It definitely has an 80's New Wave feel to it. Great stuff!
Ingest, where it goes
Nobody sees but me
So perfect and so sweet
But the rest feels incomplete
Oh, like the rabbit's foot I keep
In the locket, with no key
And I can't take it, I can't take
This world without, this world without you
I can't take it, I can't take it on my own
On my own
On these roads
Out of love
So it goes
How it feels when we fall, when we fold
How we lose control
On these roads
How it sings as it goes
Flight of field, driving snow
Knows the cold
Ran round the wailing world
And what's a song without you?
When every song I write is about you
When I can't hold myself without you
And I can't change the day I found you
On these roads
Out of love
So it goes
How it feels when we fall, when we fold
How we lose control
On these roads
How it sings as it goes
Flight of field, driving snow knows the cold
Out of love
So it goes
How it feels when we fall, when we fold
How we lose control
On these roads
How it sings as it goes
Flight of field, driving snow knows the cold
Ran round the wailing world
Thank you knowing the lyrics makes the song even more enjoyable.
This band creates seriously beautiful stuff. I love how each song is a story, written by someone with a kind and gentle soul. Just wonderful!
one of the most bare unpretentious artists I've I've watched. inspiring
These guys have that vibe like the Uncle everyone else thinks is uncool - but you know, you know, they are the coolest.
“And what’s a song without you? When every song I writes about you.” 😭😭
I can't get enough of this group. Please never stop.
This song strikes a powerful and emotional chord that resonates within me like nothing else. My lady has helped me through a very difficult time and gave me the strength to place it behind me. I haven't always been the easiest to get along with and have even a pain in the ass, but I'm her pain in the ass. She hasn't given up on me and continues to encourage me to "run" towards the new version of myself. I love you, Tamara! 🥰
the sound this band has is so addictive. for me its sort of nostalgic yet hopeful and those vibes are what music is all about for me.
Still hits in the feels doesn't it. It's why you've come back. 👋🏻 ❤️
Just an incredible song by an incredible singer. I had the privilege of seeing them live in concert - they didn't do Run but were truly memorable!
"And what's a song without you, when every song I write is about you." Gets my heart every time. Future Islands got me through many a melancholy days. Started listening during "On the Water" and they are still one of my favorite bands.
I was a teen in the 80's and I swear these guys time traveled from then to now in order to make their music, and have just been waiting for us all to catch up with them.
Will always remember this as the soundtrack when me and my son Sam took the train from Bratislava to Stary Smokevic a few years ago and eventually we watched the band in Manchester in 2022 - good times!
I notice that the major public that like Future Island are in 40's and as a girl with only 18 years I think it's a shame the youth don't appreciates more the gold songs that they made.
im only 14 and im in love with their songs
I'm 30 and known of Future Islands since 2009 when I was 17. I had my finger on the pulse and knew a lot of indie scenes back then and had a feeling of what was gonna be hot. Future Islands always bubbled just moderately under the surface but not enough to break into radio airwaves.
@@tangananica2494 I'm 64.... good music doesn't care how old you are.
I’m 71 and believe they are so good.
Found these guys a week ago. And found out this morning they're performing in my town today. You already know what I'm doing tonight!
Eating macaroni and cheese?
How was the concert? Did you go? What was it like? Just asking because I need to remember what it was like to go to a concert pre-pandemic. Make me dream, mate!
Glad to share the love for this band with my girl❤️ I love you India you know how much you mean to me and future islands will forever make me think of you
Bless to everyone else listening and remember to share the love with others
Future Islands. THANK YOU
I've been around for almost 7 decades. About 4 months ago, I listened to, "The Tower" on a Sirius channel.
I'm so glad that I discovered your band. Namaste. 🙏
I love how Sam's lyrics and singing and emotion is so captivating it just brings such a great vibe in this song It sounded like he was running singing it with his voice cadence just amazing. Brilliant band. 💕🌟🔥❤
You are simply amazing! I fell in love with you the moment I listened to SEASONS back in 2015....and ever since every song has touched me deeply.....
Due to my work as radio host I search every day for music and no other band has convinced me as much as you did within 5 minutes in the last 5 years......
PLEASE COME TO THE NETHERLANDS!!!!
short song but a life-long runing )
Great video
So glad to see they made it. I kinda knew Sam in Baltimore. I was the one who told him to get a drummer. It really made their sound complete.
If that’s true, what a call, the drums drive everything onward!
This song has gotten me through alot of pain in the last couple years. Every song should hit you this hard,otherwise why waste your time,of which ours is eternally dwindling. Live it while you got it,peeps
really, really like this band a lot!!!!
Yes 😆
You may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like.
Thomas Anderson NL?
and thats only your opinion. considering that this song only has 78 dislikes its not a very popular one.
I'm with you.
I just spit my drink out on my keybroad**#^#%
word
Where the hell have I been?!?! I just found these guys. The lead singer is mesmerizing. I love their live performances. Immediately obsessed. New artist discovery immediately in my forever listen to and love. 💜🔥🍀🤯👏💥
Great song and band.The synths on this track capture the late 70s and early 80s sound Omd, ultravox Japan etc well done guys.
This band is so underrated an unappreciated it's honestly fucking tragic
Ametama - agree, but then ‘we’ have them for ourselves. Being popular might just mess it all up ...that being said, Elbow has managed to do their thing in that between-world of appreciation.
I don't think it's so much underrated as it is that their style and genre of music doesn't quite have the mass appeal of others.
This "band" is fucking shit house. You can have them. I'm sorry i heard them.
God they suck.
i think your only talking about some rap....... have you ever listened to Country, Rock, Blues, R&B, Alternatie Rock, etc......
They don’t need to be popular!!!
UR MUSIC IS A MEDICINE GUYS‼️‼️‼️❗️‼️‼️
This song is exactly what I'm going thru right now.
I literally felt ur same pain thru this song into the pit of my stomach.
Your music has been with me thru the hardest, better part of this decade, and has held closer to my heart than a brother!
Thx u thx u thx u for saying exactly what we are all going through in 2017.
UR MUSIC IS A MEDICINE GUYS‼️‼️‼️❗️‼️‼️
Exactly the same.
"and what's the sun without you?
When every song I write's about you"
Amazing
Would love to listen to an instrumental version of this song. The bassline and layers are so beautiful !
Music video budget: $30
Song quality: PRICELESS.
I love the video.
actually couldnt have been super cheap (I know $30 is an exaggeration for the lols but even so), rather willingly made to look cheap. competent drone operators come costly
Future Islands is the perfect Indie band: music and video are handcrafted, authentic, beautiful, love this band, great job guys.
Saw them at wythenshawe park last night supporting noel Gallagher really liked them !
Just perfect. Great song... great band. One of the greatest music of our era.
What a great band! A friend and I saw them live in Charlotte, NC in 2019 and they are VERY good live! I can't get this song out of my head. ...a great band with the voice of a great front man.
Discovered these guys only recently whilst they supported Noel Gallagher near Manchester. I've been mesmerized ever since. How had I not heard of them.
Such an energetic stage presence. Sam is incredible ❤
Ma dad’s favourite band...he introduced me to them and I’ll follow them forever...rip dad miss you so much.our wee soldier ❤️ xx
That synth riff is really melancholic; I sense vibrant magenta lights on their keyboard
When there's no more room in hell the dead will walk the dancefloor to a future islands tune
I love Future Islands..
This one of the ”new” songs that I really like in these poor musical times. Keep doing great music guys!
Great show in Calgary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know this kind of coments are kinda cheesy, but its impossible for me not to share mine. In the middle of the pandemic my mother colapsed from out of nowhere. It was a brain tumor, the same that took Neil Peart. After a surgery, chemo and radio she was looking like winning. But it came back fiercely, the last two months were bizarre and tough, she was fading away in front of us. I was already hooked in this song for so long, while she was dying I would take my bike and go far away hearing songs on my phone. But this hits different, it makes a lot of different feeling pop and even now, 2 and half years later it brings me tears of joy and sadness. I miss her so much.
great band and a amazing voice
Great voice 🎶
God, I just can't believe how much I love these guys
I'll never understand but always appreciate the way that Sam delivers emotions to his audience
This band has a very special place in my heart💗
I LOVE HIS MUSIC & LYRICS.
...🙏😇💖👽
Beautiful song! A criminally underrated band!
This is one of my favorite bands . There music it's like in sync with my soul . Like somehow the band knows exactly how I'm feeling deep inside . Evertime I hear this song I cry.
Great song
I feel like I am home when I hear this song. Music can be so powerful.
Pls never go away ❤️
Really like these guys. May you never become rock stars, and always remain american artists. The Joy Division of North Carolina.
fuck rockstars
Aren't F.I. from Baltimore???
they only played festivals for a year tho, i think they made it already.
@@TEMINIX They originally formed in Greenville NC I believe, but now call Baltimore home.
@@ACobra289 It's still so badass to know these dudes are from my homestate though. I'm proud, in a way. XD
"Ran around the wailing world"
Such a masterful line
SO VERY UNDER RATED.... Their music goes straight into my soul and gives me hope...
Absolutely love this band, so much passion and depth in their music ❤️ please keep making more!
Instantly fell in love with this band today. Reminiscent of 80's New Order & Joy Division!
That guy on bass is a genius. This generation's Peter Hook.
You guys could play until you're all 70 and we'd still be here for it. So goddamn here for it.
What makes a good song into a brilliant song..Is the bass..and ive got to give it to you..its up their with the best ive heard in my 69ys..Rock on Grandad
I've said this before and I'll say it again, this brings back the feeling of "In Evening Air", the best Future Island's album.
man I thought the same thing. So fucking excited for this new one.
Can't hold a candle to in evening air the greatest album ever written, fact, but through the roses the best song on this album nearly gets there
Such a great album.
I just found out about Future Islands and I feel blessed. Now I've been obsessed with this song for 3 days and still don't have enough of it. Looking forward for all the songs I still can discover.
Thank you so much for this music!
I had the great pleasure of seeing Future Islands in Ireland this summer..just amazing xx😘😘😘😘
Sam touches my soul in every song he sings.
They were pretty great live too. He's so weird. I love it
And...the bass player is still the fucking boss.
I've been listening to these guys for 9 yrs now and only now have they started to get played on the radio. That's such a kick in the face. Same for empire of the sun.
Explosive!!! Brilliant music! Brilliant artists!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
man he really is runnin huh
Omg who else is here after Paris Jackson story, I'm in love with this music, thank you😍✨🎶🙏
Phenomenal song, saw these guys when they played in Edmonton in 2018. Sam Herring is one of the best front men of all time!
Can't stop listening. Thank you universe!
It saddens me that this band doesn’t get the rightful recognition it deserves, a great band-nonpareil.
Love this song! ❤❤❤
Come to Mexico, please!!!
You need a wall
+Adrian Trujillo You need to fuck off.
unnecessary. He's wrong, that's all he needs to know.
Adrian Trujillo You need more things to do on your free time, better than annoying people with comments so racist and without sense. So pathetic!
Adrian Trujillo u need a life
Best band of the decade. Made with simplicity and good music.
Where have I been? I have missed out on this. But now I have arrived. And my word, I'm not going anywhere. This is edgy brilliance.
FUTURE ISLANDS ARE TRENDING!!' YES!!'
boo, keep them small and untainted by the curse of popularity. they are great.
WHAMM CITY
Best synthpop band since Ultravox. And the singer is ace. Watched them on Jimmy Fallon and thought they were brilliant.
Still watching this in 2020! Yeah!!! Hope I can see all of you live again soon!
I remember meeting them one year at sasquatch music festival and when Sam introduced himself, we quickly embraced. He actually gave me his hand first but we went for a hug instead.
Years later, I worked at red Robin for a few years and this song would play. I always loved shazaming music and I'd usually know the band but not always the song. Weirdly enough, even though I was going through difficult times, I was weirdly happier. I was happier when I was poor as Ben gibbard once said! Lol
You' ll make my heart smille if you came to Brazil in 2018!!!!
#Brasildomina
Keisy Werner brazilll please
Awesome Band! I can't stop playing this song🙂
Reminds me of every time I have been in love, the happiness of being in it and the sadness of moving on. But mostly appreciating any new love more than ever. And the ability to embrace it more.
Deep joy with this track. So glad I found this band. Thank you to Richard Osman for choosing this track on Desert Island Discs. Love you man. X
absolute banger
Im here in 2019. This is still a really good song.
What’s a song without you when every song I write is about you!! This is destroying me right now!! I have girl in my life and she said she needed time and space last night and I’m just crushed inside all I can do is looking forward to climbing trees everyday since I’m a climber it’s all I can do where she’s not on my mind....
Just 2 weeks to go for the show in Berlin. Excited!
I THINK THIS BAND IS BRILLIANT....COULD LISTEN TO THEM 24/7
Everybody better enjoy these guys and really appreciate their gigs because they are getting bigger and bigger and soon, you will be standing 20 rows back at a gig and the masses will be all over the place like swarms. won't be long now.
This man makes the world a better place with his music but sadly it doesn’t last long
Really like Future Islands, watched them for the first time on Jools Holland a couple a years ago and was memorized by Sam Herring and how he throws so much emotion into each song, seen a few interviews from him and he seems like a top geezer.
Quality Synth music right up my street. I look forward to the new album and if Ran is anything to go by it will be brilliant..
You guys fill a void between Joy Division and New Order in my heart, with an extra pinch of shred
What an outrageous and on-target observation!!!
What a wonderful day today! We're right here awaiting! Mexico welcomes you guys! Here your home!
Love these soulful guys and the way the singer dances!!
Don't know how but that is a no-1 hit bloody great and been worth the wait
nah, its not mainstream enough. Its edgy, electronic, raw...Im glad they are not in the charts. Hope they stay edgy and off beat away from mainstream.
if ur talking about killing people in secret then u get killed in public
you do know Stonehenge is a fraud
