Australia alone has raised billions of dollars and they have been on literally every news station for weeks. Its been the main conversation pretty much everywhere in the world. Almost everyone I know, including me, has donated what they can afford. I get it, its cool to sound edgy and depressed, but maybe leave the big talk to the adults.
@@aveareg "Leave the big talk to the adults" was really not a strong point to end your argument, especially regarding the fact that I'm 25 years old and have donated too. The point I was trying to get across is that nobody cares about about the cause of these fires: climate change and overexploitation of natural resources. Donating to extinguish the fires will save lives, but to really make a difference we have end burning fossil fuels and aid our eco systems. If we carry on like we used to, we will permanently destroy our livelihood on earth. And this is in essence the point of Harakiri too. The future will view all history as a crime.
An artist with principles. He didnt get lost in the twisted world of fame. I love this meaningful video. Now in 2024 so true..the world is getting destroyed. Floods, droughts..
This is a great example of why music is art. It’s not just about the lyrics even though that’s part of it. Its about the chords and the emotiveness behind them.
such deep love to all the families being destroyed ever so slowly in Gaza...much of the world is with you and it is so sad we cannot say the same about so many governments around the world. May the powers that be have mercy on all of us.
Oh yeah? Explain to me why his label serjical records is owned by Universal, one of the biggest companies in music industry, one of the only 3 major labels and one of the companies that are responsible for globalization?
@@ksi8276 to be fair how is he supposed to be known without label or anything? Don't be stupid please... To give a message you have to be known, to be known in music you have to have a label. Easy as this.
@@ArthurV7734 sure. Serj's fame come from his recordings with major labels and SOAD, but he sold his own major lable to universal for more financial profit. Universal that is basically the giant of globalization from music to Hollywood. He was already famous before selling the lable. What about Radiohead? Did they need to have a lable to release all those massive albums? Rise against? White stripes? Elton John? Many of the biggest hits of these artists were with indie labels.I'm totally fine and a fan of indie labels but the enemy of major ones. I appreciate and love Serj's music but I don't believe it. Like almost every other rock star. You can't sing against the man while working for and generating money for him
They were saving it for a time when it would be more politically useful to get the votes they want that keep them in power. Don't fall for it. Yes, things need to change, but voting based on this is not the way
The fact this video and song is STILL relevant only furthers the points made by Serj. POWERFUL is the only word that comes to mind when i think about this song.
The part of this video that hits me the hardest is that he says he believes that they are free when their time has come. That death is an escape from the world we've created.
We should never forget, not "we" create this world. Our world is created by our elites. It is not a law of nature that th richest 50 own more than the poorest 3'5 billion people.

Man, 8 years later this song still, without fail, makes me cry. Partly because the song is beautiful, but mostly because of how much truth the song and video hold.
I cannot believe this man have the courage to make video clips that make him enemy of the system,i salute you behind the great music,the meaning of those words is gem in a ocean fill with every day shit.
This man is angelic bold and has no fear to speak against the system. Even in the system of a down days I LOVED the hypocrisy they exposed of all the hollyweirds the overall government takeover. This man and his band are amazing. God have a talent he uses righteously! Love always
@@MamRadVlaky It may be "mainstream" and popular, but does that mean that anything has changed? Has the system changed? Is global warming over? Are fights over petrol fields over? Are oppressive capitalism and consumer culture gone? The answer to all above is "no"
Most of the things are false though. We are doing extremely well right now (with the exception of global warming but I will get to that). On basically every metric we are doing better than ever before. There is less crime, less infant death, less disease, less wars, when there are wars less people die, less murder, less stealing, more rights across the globe, less people living in poverty, less starvation, less malnutrition, etc, etc. You can essentially pick anything and it's better today than ever before. If you had to pick a time to be born, right now would be the absolute best choice hands down. The only thing getting worse is climate change and our energy use. It's absolutely important and the most important thing in the world right now to switch from fossil fuels ot anything else be it nuclear or wind or sun or whatever. This video has a lot of things wrong; GMO's arent an issue at all, radiation is not an issue at all, wars were definitely fought way before 2925 BC heck Chimpanzees wage multi year wars (pretty brutal wars too btw). I absolutely love this song and it's brilliant as fuck but I feel like the message is a bit misdirected. Yes there are problems that need solving but we humans are pretty good at solving issues. When we found out that CFC's were causing the ozone-layer to get fucked up we globally decided to ban the practice and we were mostly succesful, succesful enough that the ozone-layer is healing. When we found out lead fuel was causing disease world wide, we put a stop to leaded fuel. Humanity is continually making progress and defeatist attitudes like this don't help.
This man's talent, voice/vocal range, and ecological & social consciousness are amazing. I always felt he was underrated; great to see that he is appreciated here on RUclips. ❤
It's too polarized to have mass appeal. If he sang about having sex it would be more well known, but since he is talking about controversial stuff and politics people shun it
@@AnonYmous-ob7py I know what u mean... and since we are actually living in difficult times right now, i think that we need to cheer up and to remember that simple things like a song can make people get together just to share a couple of minutes of peace or make us think a little of whats going on
Sadly its just some shitty Rap they didnt even write and ordered an songwriter. Most doesnt even play an instrument and for me thats when the music begins, not letting produce a sing and rap about thug beeing and drugs, etc. No, Rap is no music for me. This is music.
The Nobel Peace Prize is now worthless after it has been awarded to those who do not deserve it. Those who would have been sent to jail. Now it’s just a means of propaganda.

People with real musical talent don't get recognized in this generation now, it's all about autotune and singing about the days of the fucking week or bragging about how much money and bitches they get, this generation is completely fucked.
That's what I'm saying! Now people who like Serj, and similar artists/bands with meaning are a dying breed, but I don't care my loyalty is to Serj. I've been one of his fans for 6 years which may not sound impressive to most but I'm 15 so yeah a good portion of my life I've supported this musical genius!
Glad you had a great song to start off your New. somewhere on 250 years from now is going to read this music and listen to it and say holy s*** that's that was their potential.

@@alexmorrison9863 The first step of change is a message. The second step is ensuring the majority hears your message. The third is acting towards change collectively.
When I was 18-23 years old, I loved to go to pubs during week-end nights, getting pissed and what not. At that age, there was a "war" between emos, rockers etc. They were fighting over music tastes. Not fighting like hitting each other, more like.. arguing about what and why their music taste is better. Sound really silly to me now, but we were young and those were the times. I showed up once with a SOAD T-Shirt and I was the only one that nobody picked on. They all realized that no matter what your taste of music is, you cannot hate SOAD or Serj. Therefore, you already united us, Serj, with your music. Cheers from Romania.
In two concerts i remember vividly, one for A day to remembers 15 year anniversary tour and an August burns red tour with erra and born of osiris ( the two shows heavily contrasting in metal styles ) and between bands playing there was a case where a SOAD song played and the whole venue and hall was singing the song together. It was the most pure thing, and it gives me chills just typing it.

I'm from Indonesia, this is greatest video music of all time was I see along my live , Mr. Serj Tankian you are not president for some country but you are president of humanity in the world we all human in world love you , good bless you friend
One of the most amazing videos I've ever seen. I am deeply in love with the artists who tells us deep stories, ideas, opinions, views... through an art. And Serj is such a true artist :3
@deagleninja I'm glad your family is doing well, mine is too, but our story isn't others. Lots of people are suffering, the planet is polluted, and much more can be done. Just because you or I are doing good, does not mean we stop thinking about those who aren't.
I totally understand this feeling, and then I get a flash hope. Now more than ever, I feel that we are waking up, and that we’re on the cusp of a big change. How can we not fight for our planet, especially when it’s beginning to feel like we may be too late? Look around you carefully, you’ll see the change happening in people. It’s becoming more difficult for them to hide anymore.

We're the day birds
Deciding to fly against the sky

To kiss the ones who are born to die

Hurting each other with our lies
Within our dreams, we all wake up
To kiss the ones who are born...
Born to die

They beached themselves in Harakiri
The blackbirds
They fell in thousands from the sky
Their red wings

Serj Tankian looks like an uncle full of wisdom, who will teach you life and the purpose of it
I wish he was my uncle tbh
He does not looks like, he is. :)
Serj Tankian IS the uncle full of wisdom, who IS teaching you life and the purpose of it.
tankian is a fraud. he even said he was obsessed with buying kit. kit made out of plastic, wood and materials capitalists took from the earth. marxist fraud millionaire like Morello and Bono . each year MILLIONS of birds die due to our air travel. dont see this fraud not travelling to and from his multiple homes.

is he a fraud because he misrepresents your reality? or is he a fraud because he owns multiple homes? What the fuck are you saying? After I point out the detachments In your logic Will you reattach and reevaluate, or will you say you were right from the start and that I improperly worded your criticisms..
Instead of asserting you are right by the magnitude with which I have misrepresented whatever indecipherable statements you made. Why don't you try and properly state your criticisms
And instead of framing your criticisms in the scope of everyone else sees perfection where you don't, maybe reframe yourself as the one unwilling to accept concessions regarding certain matters
His vocals and harmonies are so amazing. He’s seriously one of the greatest singers I’ve ever heard
Lol
@@andrewdouglas906 Why??
Being 12, this was eye opening and amazing. 10 years on, and this still hits hard, especially with still how little our planet seems to be changing.
many kids used to feel the same way about cigarettes. just saiyan. sometimes things aren't as simple as we'd like them to seem.
It's too late
You're still young, don't let that help any complacency.. but you're quite likely and still seem naive.. we all are, but before 27, 35,40..

Love for Serj
I agree completely.
so sell your smartphone, stop buying new clothes, go clubbing everyweek and get rid of all your make-up stuff
Daniel Kremecek and how exactly would that help more people hear this song?
***** Yes I do, but it's a sweeping judgement to make that I party every weekend or even own a smartphone etc.
There isn't a single meaning to the song anyway - It's open to interpretation
:)
***** actually you weren't listening either if you really want to open your mouth about it. It's not critical of capitalism, but people in general. To think you or Daniel Kremecek have any room to judge a simple honest statement and a beautiful girl is just sad.
What a great song!!

This song is a pray, it's a shout, a alert to everyone of us.
Agreed. Please also have a listen to New Zealand band Tripzville and their track "the Nikola Tesla song" ruclips.net/video/5aQBLMlATXo/видео.html
You missed it
Most of the things are false though. We are doing extremely well right now (with the exception of global warming but I will get to that). On basically every metric we are doing better than ever before. There is less crime, less infant death, less disease, less wars, when there are wars less people die, less murder, less stealing, more rights across the globe, less people living in poverty, less starvation, less malnutrition, etc, etc. You can essentially pick anything and it's better today than ever before. If you had to pick a time to be born, right now would be the absolute best choice hands down.
The only thing getting worse is climate change and our energy use. It's absolutely important and the most important thing in the world right now to switch from fossil fuels ot anything else be it nuclear or wind or sun or whatever. This video has a lot of things wrong; GMO's arent an issue at all, radiation is not an issue at all, wars were definitely fought way before 2925 BC heck Chimpanzees wage multi year wars (pretty brutal wars too btw).
I absolutely love this song and it's brilliant as fuck but I feel like the message is a bit misdirected. Yes there are problems that need solving but we humans are pretty good at solving issues. When we found out that CFC's were causing the ozone-layer to get fucked up we globally decided to ban the practice and we were mostly succesful, succesful enough that the ozone-layer is healing. When we found out lead fuel was causing disease world wide, we put a stop to leaded fuel. Humanity is continually making progress and defeatist attitudes like this don't help.
It's the perfect moment for mankind to see this video. We must be united into a common goal. Save the world and be at peace.
if only it was thst simple

14 million is not enough?
no.
15 million in 6 years, when the video first came out, it only had ~2 million, its only now that its gaining a lot of views lol
I agree with you
This song should be number one in the whole world...specially these days.
It's too polarized to have mass appeal. If he sang about having sex it would be more well known, but since he is talking about controversial stuff and politics people shun it
@@AnonYmous-ob7py I know what u mean... and since we are actually living in difficult times right now, i think that we need to cheer up and to remember that simple things like a song can make people get together just to share a couple of minutes of peace or make us think a little of whats going on
Sadly its just some shitty Rap they didnt even write and ordered an songwriter. Most doesnt even play an instrument and for me thats when the music begins, not letting produce a sing and rap about thug beeing and drugs, etc.
No, Rap is no music for me. This is music.

He is areal genius,, sigh.. i hope he got more recognition, multi talent, multi instrumentalist, poet, record producer, etc...... damn this pop era..
People with real musical talent don't get recognized in this generation now, it's all about autotune and singing about the days of the fucking week or bragging about how much money and bitches they get, this generation is completely fucked.
That's what I'm saying! Now people who like Serj, and similar artists/bands with meaning are a dying breed, but I don't care my loyalty is to Serj. I've been one of his fans for 6 years which may not sound impressive to most but I'm 15 so yeah a good portion of my life I've supported this musical genius!

4:00 i find this moment with the serj tankmian voice is amazing
When I was 18-23 years old, I loved to go to pubs during week-end nights, getting pissed and what not.
At that age, there was a "war" between emos, rockers etc. They were fighting over music tastes. Not fighting like hitting each other, more like.. arguing about what and why their music taste is better. Sound really silly to me now, but we were young and those were the times. I showed up once with a SOAD T-Shirt and I was the only one that nobody picked on. They all realized that no matter what your taste of music is, you cannot hate SOAD or Serj.
Therefore, you already united us, Serj, with your music. Cheers from Romania.
In two concerts i remember vividly, one for A day to remembers 15 year anniversary tour and an August burns red tour with erra and born of osiris ( the two shows heavily contrasting in metal styles ) and between bands playing there was a case where a SOAD song played and the whole venue and hall was singing the song together. It was the most pure thing, and it gives me chills just typing it.
Ahh a fellow veteran of the emo wars I see.

@deagleninja I'm glad your family is doing well, mine is too, but our story isn't others. Lots of people are suffering, the planet is polluted, and much more can be done. Just because you or I are doing good, does not mean we stop thinking about those who aren't.
I totally understand this feeling, and then I get a flash hope. Now more than ever, I feel that we are waking up, and that we’re on the cusp of a big change. How can we not fight for our planet, especially when it’s beginning to feel like we may be too late? Look around you carefully, you’ll see the change happening in people. It’s becoming more difficult for them to hide anymore.
10 years passed and i’m still listen to Serj and SOAD. Your songs really touched my heart
Великая песня для великих людей. Спасибо Серж за твои старания. Красавец!
Pray for Brazil! The State of Rio Grande do Sul is dying! Really strong rain...nature is responding to our actions 😢😢😢😢😢 impossible to not cry with this song
I´m from the city of Canoas, bodies floating everywhere
E aí cara, como estão as coisas ai?
May mother nature find a way. God bless Serj keep making meaningful music.
Nature is the way, it will forever go further! Unfortunatly without our wonderfull biodiversity....
Nature, the very thing humanity attempts to supress and control, is the thing that will retake crumbling cities when the footnote that is humanity dissapears
Mother nature will be just fine after she eats her young.
Yep ,Covid-19
i whish to believe that this is not a fucking experiment of the greates potencies... i really wish
Mother earth say enought
