    This video really is something special, I can’t contain myself from coming back to it at least once a week. Watching this completely soothes my soul no matter what I’m going through, and some parts of this video are just pure magic. Like at 4:05...man I don’t know how you do it: the intensifying of the song just as you pass through the interchange and reveal the downtown L.A. skyline... it’s pure magic, I can’t help but feel so hyped up at that part, like as hyped up as a really cool scene in a movie would make me. You make it look so easy, I’ve tried doing videos like this and I can’t make them magical like yours. RUclips doesn’t get any better than this video right here!

      Thank you for sharing that, I'm truly glad you enjoy it so much, that's what the videos are here for, as for making it look easy? It's just a feel I guess, I just do what seems to make sense at the time when I'm putting things together.

    That has always been one of my favorite drives in LA. And no matter how many times I have seen it, whenever downtown LA comes into view it is exciting. Kind of like coming out of the tunnel in 24W towards San Francisco, when SF suddenly appears on the horizon (I think you have a video of that somewhere too).

Lived in Highland Park. Been living in ATL. since 2003). So glad I did give this a chance! I watched it with my 17 year old son. And pointed out points of my own drive whilst pregnant with him.

I love them both but saying one is better than the other is basically a coin flip. Both have ramps that are 120 feet above the lowest level at their highest points.

    Sensational ride as usual. Of the 4 or 5 videos i've seen of yours, they've been largely soundtracked with US Country or Americana but track 2 stood out as sounding different and more to own my taste (UK indie/alternative/dance) so was pleasantly surprised that it was Johnny Marr. Sounds like his work with New Order's Bernard Sumner as "Electronic". Never got around to buying The Messenger album. Chris Isaak is a God for completely different reasons.

    • @Freewayjim
      @Freewayjim  7 лет назад +2

      Thanks, I really don't use country/americana very often (unless we have very different definitions of those genres), I like to think I have a nice mix of classic rock, hard rock, jazz, dance/electronic, alternative, R&B, pop and oldies, I've even used rap in two videos. Glad you liked it just the same.

      @@Freewayjim Aww :) You're welcome have been since 2013, "Boston street tour" was the very first video I saw I was interested in history and Boston thanks to my then 5th grade teacher and still am I will thank her one day. And thank you for sharing your beautiful videos with us, you have a great taste in music and your taste also influenced and blended in with mine, watching your videos give me hope and inspiration, maybe I'm just a dreamer and love looking at the sky. Thanks again.
      Edit: You're videos make me love this country even more. God bless her and her beauty. ❤️💪🏿💪🏾💪🏽💪🏼💪🏻🇺🇸🗺️🗽🏙️🚘

      Thank you James, I don't have anything set yet for this year, some things I'm thinking about but it's been a crazy year so far. If I do go somewhere it may not be until late July or August.

      Freewayjim meh, cops probably have much larger fish to fry than simply busting someone driving around 4x-ish!
      If you were driving a semi, however, that alone would most likely put you MUCH higher up on Highway Patrol's shit list for some reason... idk exactly why... someone else willing to clarify???

    4:08 ... The four level stack near downtown LA is important. I think that it was the first four level stack in the United States. This very elegant design which moves traffic well and takes up far less real estate than other designs is now used across the country. It is most expensive because of the number of bridges needed, but is capable of moving cars through the interchange at freeway speeds.

    • @Freewayjim
      @Freewayjim  4 года назад

      This one was indeed the first but it is badly outdated and antiquated....most stacks actually take up more real estate, you should see the ones in Texas.

      I have driven in Dallas and Houston back in the late 1970s and early 80s. From watching your videos I know that they have many more today and of course LA has the new 105 century freeway which has some impressive stacks as well.
      The problem in LA now is they have far more traffic than their beautiful freeways can handle.

    Hi Jim. It's a small city and you've probably never heard of it before. But could you do a video of Quincy, MA? It may be small but it's got cool buildings and on the highway you can see the Boston skyline.

      I live in Atlanta, I have no idea when I'll be in Boston next and usually have limited time/opportunities to film and that would not be very high on my list of things to film up there, sorry.
