It really did. It was my first exposure to the LGBT community really. And I felt for the characters so much. Ever since I played it, I have been fond of the LGBT community. This eventually led me to realise that I am bisexual.
Alt-J music helped me cope with my PTSD and trauma. Helped me through one of the hardest times of my life. I'm extremely grateful to you all. Your music is medicine
素晴らしい歌詞とメロディ。Alt-jを5年くらい前に知ってそれ以来ずっとファンです、毎日聴いてます。 Great lyrics and melodies, discovered Alt-j 5 years ago and have been a fan ever since, I listen to it everyday. Message from Japan
LYRICS!!! Something good, oh something good, oh something good, Oh something good tonight will make me forget about you for now Get high, hit the floor before you go Matador, estocada, you're my blood sport But something good, oh something good, oh something good Oh something good tonight will make me forget about you for now Forty-eight thousand seats bleats And roars for my memories of you Now that I'm fully clean The matador is no more and is dragged from view Get high, hit the floor before you go Matador, estocada, you're my blood sport Forty-eight thousand seats bleats And roars for my memories of you Now that I am clean The matador is no more and is dragged from view But something good, oh something good, oh something good Oh something good tonight will make me forget about you for now Alt-J - Something Good
Thought this was a cover off something good by Utah saints so happy is wasn’t some of the best lyrical writing I’ve ever heard have come from this band
@@thats_tiggas8558 is the dude on the video, lmao. Basically is the profession name... I can't explain by myself because im dumb so just go to Wikipedia
I think their music is ageing fantastically. As time goes on i appreciate it more. Each song sounds like it should have its own feature length art house film.
Watching this video was like being jolted, flung into the air, falling, being impaled, and rampaged and tossed around like a ragdoll. Good cinematography like this gives me falling sensations.
This song speaks to me through losing a loved one. The 'something good' is something that has initially attracted our attention. When that thing impales us, the world turns upside down and becomes chaotic and unfathomable. When we reach for our swords and separate ourselves from the thing that impaled us, we become free from our attachments and find attraction the 'something good' again. But, this time, we are left with a hole the shape of what impaled us before.
@@franzroth2830 I like that interpretation and it could be the most widely accepted general interpretation. It can also be the pain of knowing that your loved one is with someone else(only for the time being, without a break up). And "something good" distracts you from thinking about it. "Something good" can be any form of sedation, softer or as hard as drugs depending on how depressed it makes one feel. This alternative interpretation makes it more relatable for me.
Was looking for someone to explain the video in the comments… thank you! Have always loved this song but only recently saw the video. I think you gave a perfect analysis❤️ my condolences for your loss
When I was in my 20s I was working in the weed farms in Humboldt county, California. It was a crazy time in my life, full of madness and hope and lots of hard work. This was my favorite song and gave me peace in those moments I was able to gather some rest.
.. because this place we created is slowly breaking the will of everything that it encounters.. happiness is simple.. remember this and don't complicate things.
Breezeblocks was the first song by them that I listened to. And now every few months I watch/play something that has a song by them and it's awesome and made them one of my favorite bands.
Being confined at home made me look through all of my music and when my eyes saw the title I swear all the feels came back!!! You know a song is good when after all those years you still feel like it's the first time!!
favourite band and such. The moment I recognized this song in episode 2 was a huge break down. alt-j your music has a special sense I can't describe.. but thanks for being with me in these and other wonderful moments.
Estocada = Merciful thrust in final part of bullfight designed to kill the beast. He's trying to forget something that hurt him. Something else (the something good) allowed him to temporarily forget (for now)
I go to my school in the bus with this song always while I see on the window, it's the best song to start the day with good humor. PD: I love you Max Caulfield xD
This song just might be the best song I have ever listened to by Alt-J. I don't mean to go all sentimental, but the lyrics really speak to me and what I'm going through at the moment. ΔLT-J ΔPPRECIATION!!
I mean i just love this band, listen at that beautiful authentic genuine tone. none of this auto tune crap, just three super talented guys. such stunning harmonies in this, beautiful
This nurse has COVID for the 4th time. This one's pretty bad. Sleeping ~23 hours a day. Woke up and listened to this♥️. ALWAYS makes me happy. Always make me feel better. ♥️♥️ Love you guys.
I really think this is amazing! I love how they used framing to give the video a surreal and chaotic effect. I also find it interesting that it is sort of from the matador's perspective as we see his more or less hallucinations as he dies from blood loss. Just an overall awesome video that deserves all the views and likes it gets.
As someone who fought some demons of his own, I'd say that this song is so accurate, it almost hurts. And at the same time, it's so beautiful, it heals too. Amazing. Album title is not overconfident, this is awesome, this is art! More, more, more!
So, I was a bit annoyed at everyone being here for this amazing song only having comments about some random game. But I took your advice and eventually gave the game a shot. I'm only at the beginning of episode 2, but I do really like it so far! Funny how we can find out about and share passions through the most unexpected ways. 🤗
César Benìtez Well I know it's not 'for' a game, but it was in it's soundtrack and was picked for it, so that's why I say 'for a game'. Your point is accurate, though :)
Thank you Dontnod Entertainment for placed that amazing song to your game. Personally, I've heard that a long time ago likewise with Crosses, but I'm still glad, that both of them has been picked in Life is Strange.
now my second favorite alt-j song. funny how playing LiS made me like this song so much more. its kinda like reliving the emotions of LiS a little bit each time I listen to it.
+twomo1 You were playing Life Is Strange in the part before when there is this song, then you knew about this song, so you knew Life Is Strange before this song and you knew this song before Life Is Strange played it
I played Life is Strange and didn't even know that it had this song in it until I read the comments lol. Im just focused on how amazing this music video is.....like seriously. Its absolutely amazing. The style of how its shot, and ahhhhh just wonderful. And intriguing.
+Bellatriixx12 For real though, I think EVERYONE came here for the artist's incredible work. If people didn't love the music... newsflash... they wouldn't be here. Personally, I knew about breezeblocks and Taro before I played Life is Strange, and then found this song through that and it got me even more into them. Now my favorite song by Alt-J is Every Other Freckle. These guys are fucking awesome and are one of the few "new" and progressive bands right now. And this video has 12 million views. Pretty sure you're not the only one who's listening to them because of their amazing work. Don't be such a goddam hipster. You probably hate Twenty One Pilot's new album, too.
Just because Life Is Strange brought a lot of the viewers here doesn't mean that they didn't come for the band's great music, does it really matter what brought you here?
"Life is Strange" has changed my life for good. I will never be the same person.
Ah yes, a game on my endless list of games I need to play, it's in my steam library I just need to take the time...
@@FeudalRoach Drop everything and play it lmao
It really did. It was my first exposure to the LGBT community really. And I felt for the characters so much.
Ever since I played it, I have been fond of the LGBT community. This eventually led me to realise that I am bisexual.
Me too! I can't even begin to explain how much life is strange changed me as a person

hello my friends
I asked Alexa to play something good, and she played this. It did not disappoint.
Who gonna tell him
Fuck Alexa, get back in tune with the keyboard 🙏
That's a very cool way to first hear this song/band
Never would’ve guessed Alexa is a hipster.
Kkkkk
The build-up to 2:37 and then the subtle bass note to major scale is the best moment of the song.
This comment helped me appreciate this song in a new light!
I love the bass in this song
Well, LiS has given pretty much including bright eyes, Daughters, Alt j. no words I appreciate for all those.
It's one of those songs that make you think about past, but not specific moment, just about past itself.
Like us, but in another life...
This makes me think about a movie scene where someone sits in a train with earphones in and looking out of the window, caught in their own thoughts.
i think of the past, present, and future at the same time somehow
fuck yeah
It does it makes me remember when I first got away from my abusive ex. Nothing specific but feeling free in a way
Alt-J music helped me cope with my PTSD and trauma. Helped me through one of the hardest times of my life. I'm extremely grateful to you all. Your music is medicine
100% true for me too! Major trauma was helped healed with alt j
oh that was you I guess
That's something good.
it helped me deal with truamu when i was 13 and now im 23 im sure itll help me again
Something good for you to be able to do it again 💞
Damn Life is Strange thank you for 'showing' me this song.
When i hear "Something good" in episode 2 I was so excited B| !
I feel the same
John Wildermuth me too..

The instrumentation on this is breath taking. I love when all aspects of the music are of the same caliber.
its really lovely
Yeah altj is pretty highbrow stuff man... I like to describe it as "if 190 iq was a musical genre"
what if they're the same but they're all a shit caliber? huh?
Kudos to the director... That video is amazing....
One of the coolest music videos I've seen. What a great album. If anyone has the opportunity to see them live, take it!
LYRICS!!!
Something good, oh something good, oh something good,
Oh something good tonight will make me forget about you for now
Get high, hit the floor before you go
Matador, estocada, you're my blood sport
But something good, oh something good, oh something good
Oh something good tonight will make me forget about you for now
Forty-eight thousand seats bleats
And roars for my memories of you
Now that I'm fully clean
The matador is no more and is dragged from view
Get high, hit the floor before you go
Matador, estocada, you're my blood sport
Forty-eight thousand seats bleats
And roars for my memories of you
Now that I am clean
The matador is no more and is dragged from view
But something good, oh something good, oh something good
Oh something good tonight will make me forget about you for now
Alt-J - Something Good
+María Muñoz Ruiz thanks!
Isn't it SEND ROSE instead of AND ROARS?

“i am sooo not a rebel. i always like my bed to be neat and tidy... thanks mom :)”

Define normal.

Holy you’re 26 now. I’m 18. I hope you’ve played life is strange by now!
You're 26 now... I hope you have a good life
The directing in this, the lighting, the story, bloody incredible
Breezeblocks was the first song by them that I listened to. And now every few months I watch/play something that has a song by them and it's awesome and made them one of my favorite bands.
Who is this handsome man..? My goodness, he's handsome.

Yeah who is he :o
NVM i found him lol
His name is frankie aydugan you can google it XD

Just started replaying life is strange and this banger comes on! So ducking good
Piece of art of the highest level
i already loved this song with all my heart, then it played on life is strange. now i love it even more. ♥
this song is life
is strange too
Δlτ-j and death
vanishingpoint80 alt j is death?
vanishingpoint80 yes or no?
What does it mean to you?
Fun fact "Alt-J" is a shortcut for rewind
That fit pretty well life is strange
Gauthier Chazal I wondered if it was a shortcut!
On a Mac it's a shortcut for ∆
Another fun fact: before Alt-J this band was named Daljit Dhaliwal, which is named after a television presenter
This definitely is something good
it dont work fer me
This is the intro song for Life is Strange Episode 2, right? I can imagine Max waking up to this.
Łukasz Majger Episode 2 was leaked before released. Thats how ^^
***** Yeah
yeah it is xD
Alt-J is Strange
Alt-J is strange. Alt-J is life. Life is Strange.
You spelled 'Life' wrong
Did you press Alt-J when watching this?
then so did you
jajaja
I mean i just love this band, listen at that beautiful authentic genuine tone. none of this auto tune crap, just three super talented guys. such stunning harmonies in this, beautiful
If you hurt animals, you loose your heart. This is the message the video gave me, beautiful...

Once again Life is Strange brought me here. No shame in that though, i love when videogames introduce me to awesome music.
Agradeço todo dia a Life is strange por ter me apresentado essa banda maravilhosa ❤
Oi

This album is a classic at the point, really
That matador is gorgeous 😍
The best song i have ever heard in my life.
This is my alarm

impossible to Wake up with this music,its so relaxing
start the day the Caufield way.
Life is Strange was amazing, and the soundtrack made it even better.
I was hoping to find Life is Strange lovers here :D
Max has great taste in music!
I have been listening to this song non-stop for about a week now. I've probably listened to it for over 5 hours total
These visuals are incredible...
Shazam, you are my hero
Je te le confirme :)
The Max Caufeild way to start the day.
As someone who fought some demons of his own, I'd say that this song is so accurate, it almost hurts. And at the same time, it's so beautiful, it heals too. Amazing.
Album title is not overconfident, this is awesome, this is art!
More, more, more!
at the flow of keys at 42-50 seconds I can feel the flowers blooming in the garden
Just discovered Alt-J through Hunger of the Pine a couple days ago. This art is absolutely something i've been yearning for. True Art.
I’m too late for this, but I’ll be 10 year for this music. This is gonna be so nostalgic.
I will listen to this this song until i get "out of time" :)
Life sure is strange huh
1:35 this part is unbelievably good
Thank you for being a part of my life alt-J.
AMAZING SONG......AMAZIN CLIP......Very moving TOUCHES THE SOUL IMAGES AND SO MANY ARE SAYING about feelings ... THANK YOU THAT could I see it!!
Just played Life Is Strange and couldn't bring myself to leave the dorm room because of this song. and here I am.
One of the best and most unique songs of the last decade or so!
one of their underrated songs
Does anyone play this on repeat ALL THE TIME like me?? I dream it.
Yup. I think it's meant to be played on repeat.
If only he had the power to rewind.
Ibrahim Parker life is strange
Alt j is the key bind to rewind videos
Wouldn't work if he was alreadt gored. Max's powers make her retain her current state, as she couldn't rewind after Jeffershit drugged her.
Alt j... one of those bands that restores tour faith in newer music. Lucky to have found them :)
I can never stop listening to this song.
So, I was a bit annoyed at everyone being here for this amazing song only having comments about some random game. But I took your advice and eventually gave the game a shot. I'm only at the beginning of episode 2, but I do really like it so far! Funny how we can find out about and share passions through the most unexpected ways. 🤗

@@kimchipossum lol
Uh 2 years late comment but hope u loved it!
What game is it?c
@@harryeverett2152 The game is called Life is Strange. This guy is talking about the first one.
This song is strange..... like life....
i see where you're going...
I understood the reference
i think it actually needs time, I thought the same at first, than it grew on me more and more :)
+bakoziel No, he meant that as a reference to the video game Life is Strange where this song is featured.
Breezeblocks is better it should be in life is strange
Turning 45 at the moment and this is the song in me. Love Alt J from the first time. Miss you 33.🌻
This song always relaxes my hormones.
How can the music for a game be so well picked and so sad at the same time :/
That's because this isn't music 'for a game'. This song was released years before the game, so it has just been selected but not made for the game. =)
César Benìtez Well I know it's not 'for' a game, but it was in it's soundtrack and was picked for it, so that's why I say 'for a game'. Your point is accurate, though :)
Thank you Dontnod Entertainment for placed that amazing song to your game.
Personally, I've heard that a long time ago likewise with Crosses, but I'm still
glad, that both of them has been picked in Life is Strange.
Alt J’s music videos are always 🔥
Literally my favorite song by alt j
now my second favorite alt-j song. funny how playing LiS made me like this song so much more. its kinda like reliving the emotions of LiS a little bit each time I listen to it.
I knew about alt J before I knew about life is strange, but I knew about life is strange before I knew about this song... So... What camp am I in?
LOL, this was supposed to be a satirical and edgy comment, blurring the boundary of dated fandom and new-found fandom....guess I failed......shit.
+Dalton K 'preciate it..
+twomo1 Alt J is how I found Life is Strange so I'm pretty happy either way. :D
Amazing music for an amazing game.
+twomo1 You were playing Life Is Strange in the part before when there is this song, then you knew about this song, so you knew Life Is Strange before this song and you knew this song before Life Is Strange played it
+Joaco Remis Thank you, all I was trying to say. lol.
Listening to this is taking me back to the good old days of Life Is strange sigh I miss it
RIP handsome spaniard. Life is strange didn't bring me here, but this handsome spaniard did.
So... That means im a luckily spanish guy that comes to this song through Alt+J music and not for a game? :D
Arxymer24 HD i don't quite get what you said.
+fenkinfe - Haha, u don't need to get it. Just enjoy Alt+J!!

Well here we are.. how did you like it :)
obsessed.
Same, such a good song!
Sarah R yes!!
I came to know this song when I played Life Is Strange but honestly, I never knew the official music video is this good. So beautiful.
“It’s when you discover that life is without substance, that it’s nothing at all, illusion, that the obsession with death settles in.”
life is pretty strange, isn't it
I've watched this video before...woke up today and really wanted to listen to it again.
I don't know why, but this time it really got me...
R.I.P Victor Barrio. And R.I.P the many innocent beasts he slayed.
this song looks like a prophecy. life is strange.
This song has a strange hypnotic vibe
Connu grâce à Life Is Strange. J'aime vos musiques :)
Pareil grâce à "Aiekillu"
What a beautiful composition.
Life is Strange is the best game ever in my opinion.
No man, but the best soundtrack surely
I agree. It's amazing
I think that The walking Dead season 1 and Heavy Rain are the most brilliant stories in gaming
Paulo Zonenschein I think the walking dead is a little bit unoriginal but heavy rain for sure
Origi Nope my 2 favourites games are life is strange and the last of us :D
I came here to dicuss bullfighting...
And all I'm reading about is Life is Strange.
