I love the song, not because of the budwieser beer, but because it resembles my life. I have been away from home for the past 6 years and I miss things. i am no tin touch with my family and only talk briefly to my kids. The reason why I am away from is because i need to work and this is my life style, at times I am very alone even though I am surrounded by many of workers. So, i listen to this song many times and I cry at times. It is not a sad song but rather a reality song for me....
Verse 1] I've spent too long away from home Did all the things I could have done Gone are the days of endless thrills I know I'm not the only one So long, I'm goin', goin' home [Verse 2] I saw the streets all ripe with jewels Balconies and the laundry lines They tried to make me welcome there But their streets did not feel like mine So long, I'm goin', goin' home [Guitar solo] [Verse 3] I want the sun to hit my face Through oak trees in the open lot Forget about the things you want Be thankful for what all you got So long, I'm goin', goin' home So long, I'm goin', goin' home
going to the army soon, been thinking about my life and that I could actually bite the dust..I think this song will be perfect for my funeral..when I'm old.
i knew about Dan first! everyone who only heard of him after i did doesn't like him as much as i do, and doesn't like him for the genuine reasons that i do!
to je krasnej song....a film, ve kterym ho mozno slyset "Up In The Air"....jeste nadhernejsi......ten videoklip se mi moc libi,, jakobych byla zse v ameriece...
@Mooch1124 you missed the whole point of that commercial. its about how emotional it is to return to your family after living in such a savage place (war). Perfect song for that clip! Budweiser just made a cameo in it.
But yea it does suck its in a commercial. Im sure he got a lifetime supply of Bud for it. Ive actually found a few really good artist from watching commercials... Melanie Kaftka - Brand New Key, The Black Angels - Young Men Dead... all great songs that were played on national television. Just because they r on a commercial doesnt mean they arnt as good, just means they are bought easy... im sure you would do the same if you had that kinda money flashed in your face:)
Auerbach for the win! He's the best thing since Jack White :P haha i jest! For all the twilight fans, get into the Black Keys earlier stuff before you go a gig, i don't wanna stand by you while you talk to your mates because you don't know the songs lol! x
i can't believe the nerve of some people. you gotta be incredibly out of tune with shit or you're pullin your strings to too high a tensity if you really think you dislike this song. you only THINK that you dislike it, so the only way to solve the problem is to THINK NOT. on another note, dan auerbach sounds a hell of a lot like jerry garcia in this song, agree, disagree?
It's possible to stop the video and see that it's shot from a bus (dots on window,) in Ambarès-et-Lagrave, France, (a suburb of Bordeaux,) with a Nikon SLR.
i don't understand why this song is making people cry. makes absolutely no sense; why would you cry if you were going home? seems an entirely illogical action to me.

Excellent movie to accompany a fine, fine song, thank you.
I heard this song yesterday, the second i heard it I packed my bags, and drove all the way to Maine from Nevada. bery moving and beautiful song.
This song is killing me....great lyrics and melody, fighting back tears as I type!
Hope you found peace and tranquility, dude.
i can't stop thinking about this movie and this song as well as "Help Yourself" contribute to Up in the Air's immense greatness
Verse 1]
I've spent too long away from home
Did all the things I could have done
Gone are the days of endless thrills
I know I'm not the only one
So long, I'm goin', goin' home
[Verse 2]
I saw the streets all ripe with jewels
Balconies and the laundry lines
They tried to make me welcome there
But their streets did not feel like mine
So long, I'm goin', goin' home
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 3]
I want the sun to hit my face
Through oak trees in the open lot
Forget about the things you want
Be thankful for what all you got
So long, I'm goin', goin' home
So long, I'm goin', goin' home
I love dan auerbach his music is simply genius, and a pleasure to always listen to.
such a great song, generally my musical taste is in a totally different genre, but there is something about this song that gets to me.
Love this song ...it is I it is always it is me ...so imperfect and complete.
this is a great song, practically a lullaby
Good thing it was in a budweiser commercial so I could discover such a great artist:)
this guy is a master songwriter and a great poet
His voice is just mesmerizing!
Lovely video, I have definitely listened to this song on repeat while looking out the window as I return to my home town
Somedays music is magic!!
Thumps up if you came to this song because of "Up in the Air" like me.
great song
So pretty.
Beautiful song and great video, gotta love the feeling of going home
going to the army soon, been thinking about my life and that I could actually bite the dust..I think this song will be perfect for my funeral..when I'm old.
How that experience 9 years later? ;)
great just really great
such great lyrics
i missed home every time i heard this song
the music is just make me feel that i am at home
wanna be at home
Up in the Air.
@EclecticOldGuy Right there with you...it's so beautiful...what a voice, like an angel xxx
it has something magic and consuming.. it's perfect
Anyone else get to love this song because of the budweiser commercial?
i knew about Dan first! everyone who only heard of him after i did doesn't like him as much as i do, and doesn't like him for the genuine reasons that i do!
bought this cd as soon as it came. out obsessed over it. thought this would make a killer song in a movie. up in the air stole my idea.
masterpiece unreal talent
Very nice.
I like this video, simple but effective. I like drving and looking out the window too.
Wish there was a delete button for ignorant and hateful comments. Incredibly sweet song.
to je krasnej song....a film, ve kterym ho mozno slyset "Up In The Air"....jeste nadhernejsi......ten videoklip se mi moc libi,, jakobych byla zse v ameriece...

Nothing bitter. From home.

Can’t believe it’s been 11 years....
dance moms are intense...o wait i came her for music....this is good
i lovveee youu for uploading this merci.. ^^

@HappyBirthdaySANTA
here here. I guess we need crappy popular music, because we just appreciate this kind of stuff better.
The three people who disliked this video have obviously spent too long away from home.
@barneylover64 I think if I let myself I could cry every time I listen to it.
@Mooch1124 you missed the whole point of that commercial. its about how emotional it is to return to your family after living in such a savage place (war). Perfect song for that clip! Budweiser just made a cameo in it.
Well done Neil Young.
2020?
Because maybe they are going home after a long time or just the mood of the song
But yea it does suck its in a commercial. Im sure he got a lifetime supply of Bud for it.

@ruffdaryder You thought wrong, haha. They aren't super common though.
@MrGermantim I couldn't agree more with you!
@barneylover64 me too man...me too
i saw the nikon camera
R.I.P My bud and second mom, Naomi Barone
c'est en france ?
can u make this available for mobile playback?
2:32 nikon reflection
Up in the air *.*
i love the blk keys and dan auerbach. and why wudnt you sell out to a company who trys to act like they didnt buy out. whats the word im lookin 4
looks like Bordeaux region
@fullmetal45676 Not I, I dig the Black Keys and Dan has soul in his music!
@tehetahatoho i suppose that means my sarcasm worked impeccably
sucks it's in a budweiser commercial
budweiser
thank you for pointing that out. since you obviously understand music, do enlighten me.
@smpratte what what? i dont get it. I love neil young but what does he have to do with this?
no dislikess 😊
it can't be in the US, they have a phobia of roundabouts.
France?
nice try budweiser.. this song belongs to Up in the Air.
It's possible to stop the video and see that it's shot from a bus (dots on window,) in Ambarès-et-Lagrave, France, (a suburb of Bordeaux,) with a Nikon SLR.
this is a copy of neil young
Dan Auerbach only copyed the lyrics
his music is very diffrent
i like Dan's version better
