Saw him in 2016 in Dallas right before he checked into the hospital and changed his music. Best concert I’ve ever gone to in my life. I hope he does a tour again for fans like you who still love his music
i remember when i first heard this song. the beat was so diffrent n beautiful at this time hip hop n techno was fuseing n i think kanye knew wat he was doing with graduation.. he fused techno and electronic dance music eith hip hop beats n created a masterpiece.. which is the result of graduation.. which is still one of his best albums
you can't this dudes talent. Been following his music since college dropout; He's been developing as a rapper and artist. Ye is an inspiration in life.
I watched this first time stoned, heard the song before and wasn't expecting the syhtesizer. When it went off I was like omg thats most beautiful sound in the universe :D
exactly!! I was stoned yesterday and heard this for the first time and trust me, I felt the same, my jaw dropped and I couldn't believe what I was hearing! @@Shun434
Esta canción es muy buena, no entiendo como es que el video original no tiene tantas reproducciones y likes si es igual de buena que otras que Kanye tiene !
It's crazy, imagine if he wasn't doin all the shit he's been doing recently...and was able to perform at the superbowl. Imagine what Kanye would do with FLASHING LIGHTS on the superbowl stage. This will always be one of my biggest "what ifs" with him.
@@randomgayguyman i know im a year late but i wasn't sure if this comment was sarcasm lol, he's right though. Early to mid 2000's rap never had beats like this until Kanye came onto the scene. We were riding off the gangsta rap sound
I miss this Kanye West. He still had a huge ego back then, but he was not that much effected by his mental issues. Hope that he can make it back to the top. He did do it before back in 2010 after the Taylor Swift moment during the 2009 MTV Music Video Awards.
This song is a timeless classic
Koonsville I agree ... the beat is timeless
I love it! Still rocking it in 2018
still very Timeless it seems like
Agree

Kanye West is a genius.
Fábio Rosolen yep
Yes he is
Yes
Yeeeeessssssd
Yes he is
Kanye West is the musician who took rap from the streets and made it acceptable for high society.
Rap was popular before Kanye came along..
taximan031 But he's saying like, Anna Wintour wouldn't ride around listening to N.W.A or Wu-Tang.
Kobey Valentine word up
What? :-\
Kanye West is the guy, who took hip-hop and turned it into an art
I love how Kanye is wearing 5 jesus pieces
Jesus walks
Way more stuntastic then John Mayers watch
Lol! If you're going to wear a Jesus piece, might as well wear 5.
Max B as if that’s going to help
@@-M0LE help what
Man I love Kanye west. Words can’t explain how much I love this man.
SAAME SAME
I can’t watch him without getting goosebumps
Y'all aint alone... me four
SAME
FUCKING SAME
I enjoy him replacing "damn" with a really aggressive "FUCK"
hahaha right? wasn't expecting that.
1:27
😂😂😂😂😂😂
It happened as I read this comment
"FOCK"
this guy is more talented than what people perceive him..
people just hate and deny every good thing about him.
He was. To bad his illness got the best of him
dude where is my car he still is
Winlox imo is not.
trs ub especially given the fact that produces his own beats.
gotdamn that synth with the arp really makes the song 10x better
+Mr Troublesome i would
Yes, please
yassss.
boo boo booey fuck yeah
+Mr Troublesome thats fucking cool man
Before I die want to see this song live. I don’t know if he’ll ever perform it again but I would love to be there.
Same here
No other performance of Flashing Lights will top this one sadly
I’ve seen it live 🥲 im so lucky I did
Saw him in 2016 in Dallas right before he checked into the hospital and changed his music. Best concert I’ve ever gone to in my life. I hope he does a tour again for fans like you who still love his music
Check out a video of the Glow in the Dark tour performance. The intro is magical.

One of my favourite tracks of all time...you gat that...ALL TIME!!!!

@@Tafkaji yessir
Graduation is his masterpiece...
Diego de Freitas nope, Yeezus and 808s and Heartbreak are
His magnus opus
Dan You're just wrong. WRONG.
mbdtf is his greatest
MBDTF is his magnum opus, 808s and Yeezus are his most creative
Beat of the millenium...Nothing will come close.
Facts
100%
frl tho

One of the best live versions of flashing lights
What about the glow in the dark tour version?
One of the best live versions of anything. Shit hits hard.
Kanye sounds amazing live
It's called lip singing.
+DipShift he's not lip syncing, but it's funny u say that because it means that u thought this was so on point it was the studio version
+Ritvikulous Swag haha true
DipShift syncing*, and this is different then studio version definitely real
Ritvik C got him
I wanna die to this
...or stronger
...Or On Sight
rangerstationlegion or street lights
Or coldest winter
... or I Wonder

This and "Champion" are tied for my #1 favorite on Graduation

Best song on Graduation imo
+MAY-PAC what's your fav?
+MAY-PAC 👌👌 also amazing
Flashing Lights is my 2nd favorite, my favorite is also I wonder MAY-PAC.
But I mean the whole album is amazing, its my favorite album
Hell nah cant tell me thing was
Every once sleeps on Good Morning
This version with the synths is crazy
We get it , you vape
You ready for PHAROS?
+TheVenusBlood I don't know what to expect and I love that! Gambino never ceases to amaze me
+Sadboy Meazy So true! I loved STN MTN/Kauai
LOL
you can't this dudes talent. Been following his music since college dropout; He's been developing as a rapper and artist. Ye is an inspiration in life.
Never heard this version of the synths, it's sublime
Who's here a decade later listening to this classic?
Is it only me or it sounds way better then studio version
So much better
2023 anyone? ..this track has me coming back every now and then 🔥🔥
this made me wanna be famous
You don't want to be famous you'll end up regretting it you won't enjoy you life no more you can't be happy
Kevin Estell SAME
P Dot M some people enjoy being famous, but most people realize its not as good as it sounds
He said famous , not happy
For what? Having to watch your back everywhere you go? No privacy. People will criticize you for everything you do! Being famous is a curse.
I just watched a documentary on Netflix and then found myself listening to this masterpiece, Simply sensational!
There's something so hypnotic about the beat and the keyboard riff. Love this track!
This hit so hard in 2020. Who is here after quarantine
I love his chainz
1:23 oh man just listen that synth, it is musical bliss🔥
Kanye had and still has that vibe from still 8years and still vibin to it MUSIC IS TIMELESS
THUMPS UP for the Synthesizer!
I watched this first time stoned, heard the song before and wasn't expecting the syhtesizer.
When it went off I was like omg thats most beautiful sound in the universe :D
Thumbs Up For Mike Dean Playing Those Keys Live..👍🏻
exactly!! I was stoned yesterday and heard this for the first time and trust me, I felt the same, my jaw dropped and I couldn't believe what I was hearing! @@Shun434
Who still listening to this now 2016 i still do good ass music!!!!!

This version makes me feel high...
I think maybe this what Kanye was trying to create on the studio version but it didn't translate
EVEN THOUGH HE'S BEEN GOING THROUGH YOU CAN'T SAY KAYNE ISN'T A MUSICAL GENIUS IM HERE FOR IT iM 65 FROM BROOKLN N.Y. THIS RIGHT HERE IS EVERYTHING
My favorite song of all time 🔥.
One of my fav song of Kanye West
Respect,
Even in times like this.
Kanye will always be a great artist. Regardless of his views on politics
Jurgen 9 🙌🏾
YES he will
His views on politics are fine
@@xeinem2345 maybe 4 years ago but definitely not now LOL
@@justinjohnson4278 yeah that aged like milk
Honestly kanye was ahead of his time along with weezy and t pain and kid cudi
Simply wonderful production...
Kanye West made HipHop easily acceptable to mainstream masses .. He is a music genius!
You can tell he enjoyed performing this then
Each time I listen to a video of Flashing Lights Live, it's slightly different than the last time. I love it.
This performance was more than a decade ago... this man is always ahead of its time
this man is a king
No one will ever understand how much i love kanye west
This song makes me feel like the main character in public
It does
I would kill to see this song live
You don't have to kill anyone... Just need the ability to afford a ticket
@@GGray. lol
@@GGray.we need a knye world tour so bad
Legendary Song.
Esta canción es muy buena, no entiendo como es que el video original no tiene tantas reproducciones y likes si es igual de buena que otras que Kanye tiene !
i get goosebumps
I literally tear up whenever I hear Kanye. God bless this man’s soul.
Years later this is still a favorite performance of mine
Beautiful melody I love this song
*The confidence ever before he speaks.....*
This song is so perfect
he's a f genius . I don't believe in many things including a happy ending but I do believe in manolo shoes & balmain gowns.
Yesenia Ramirez manolo beeeee ❤❤
my friend liked this so much he was dancing with his back on the floor
It's crazy, imagine if he wasn't doin all the shit he's been doing recently...and was able to perform at the superbowl.
Imagine what Kanye would do with FLASHING LIGHTS on the superbowl stage. This will always be one of my biggest "what ifs" with him.
One of my fave tracks of all time. Gives me goose pimples every time x
I find myself coming back to this everyday
I'm so sorry for those who haven't watched this. They are missing
My epilepsy friend loves this video. He’s dancing on the floor lol
The most under rated Knaye Song .....still boping in 2019
still boping in 2021
dat beat should have been on da original album
this beat is too great of a risk, because rap at that time didn't have this type of beats
@@melaynineyahiyahi4988 sorry, you're clearly an expert, thanks for that information

Danny Camacho facts
This is one of those songs that NOBODY but Ye himself can recreate.
Damn! Very good live for a very good music (watching in 2016!)
I need the original version with these synths
Brilliant.
We need this version on iTunes or Spotify
