I played this song every day in the car whilst I was pregnant with my son, and once he was born it was one of the only songs that would settle him. I've now introduced my 7 year old niece who I often hear singing it. I wish more people knew of Zero 7 - My Dad introduced me to them when I was a child and i'm so thankful to him for that. Their music has got me through many ups and downs throughout my life (including my Dads passing) - Forever a fan ❤️
Yes Zero 7 are the best and, for me, soundtrack across these past 20 years. I lost my Dad too this year. Such healing music. Thanks for sharing your experience. Got to see them live some years ago when Sia was with them. Happy Festive days to you.
This came up on my playlist one time while I was a few hours outside Taos,NM. Driving solo and heading into the mountains as the sun set and the temperature started dropping and along with a few other tunes and the solitude and beauty of the desert country, it was just one of the most glorious times of my life.
My mother is going through a huge dirty divorce and I thought that was bad...but then my sister started her extremely dirty divorce...this song lets me know that we are all going through our stuff and most of us are just swimming upstream in this world. I pray you all have a good swim upstream in this world cause most of us don't. If you listen to this your one of the beautiful swimmers. Love u all who swim against the tide...
Ive recently discovered Zero 7, they are truly amazing and very talented. I love their diversity with othe talent and how it takes. you on a beautiful trip in your mind it carries you away ....... So underrated here in the U.S. I close my eyes and just drift into a cool 60's vibe.
@@alfredoalessandretti158 It was around the same time for me too, isn't it brilliant to have all of their music to catch up on! I absolutely love this track, and great to watch them live!
The fact that the live version sounds even better than the studio version just blows my mind. All the little tweaks to the b.g. Instruments just makes my heart burst with joy each time I listen to this. And I’ve been listening to this on repeat for over a week.
Those two guys just have impeccable taste when it comes to music and they know a special voice when they hear it. They know how to utilise those excellent vocalists perfectly. This song is already legendary in my book. 😊
God I love this song! It's got that classic Zero7 sound and feeling, bittersweet, soft and still with a beat. I am so happy you went this way and I'm looking forward to more. ❤️
@@TheOriginalWheatLoaf I was about to say that, this reminds me so much of the Tina Dicow/Sia era. Those are still some of the best albums I’ve ever heard. They’re just unreal no matter what they do honestly.
I don't know if you care about the views or not, but the way your songs make me fell more than 15 years later ... I would give you millions if i could. Somersault still gives me goosebumps. Love you guys!
I’ve never heard Henry sing before, omg this is amazing!! What a beautiful vocal melody with the female high and Henry doing the low octave. 💜💜🙏🏻🙏🏻💜💜🎹🎧 I could really hear an Anjunadeep remix here, my lord this is gold!!
Do you know We are the young ghosts? In reverse Our stories unfold Moving slow We're just killing time And we know This fear is a crime Surrender to your love Surrender to your heart Surrender We are swimmers Caught in the tide Pitch black river Shadows and light Into the night Beautiful swimmers Losing the fight A constant river Shadows and light Into the night Coming home We're shaking the grass All alone So far from the path Do you know I see you so clear? Yes, I know It's happening here Surrender to your love Surrender to your heart Surrender We are swimmers Caught in the tide Pitch black river Shadows and light Into the night Beautiful swimmers Losing the fight A constant river Shadows and light Into the night We are swimmers Caught in the tide Pitch black river Shadows and light Into the night Beautiful swimmers Losing the fight A constant river Shadows and light Into the night
I wish I was a musician to understand the true genius of Z7. What is is they do? Why isn't the whole world going nuts over them? It's as if they have a key to my brain. Respect.
Really really good music is usually appealing to a small part of the audience that resonates with it. Mainstream music can touch almost everyone simultaneously, but not in the same depth. We have a lot to gain by keeping an open mind about all genres.
Good luck! The make a song or two every year. I wish they would have built on the sound of Simple Things. More smooth instrumentals and less weird computer sounds with average singers and lyrics.
This session is just cooking along and taking a 64-year-old back over 30 years when I was recording friends set up in the sunken lounge of my home in the hills and it all just gels. On loop in my home studio right now... oh... a brilliant track as well of course! Thank you again!
As a big fan of When It Falls and Simple Things, since their release, this is such a big leap and, somehow at the same time, a back to basics. Love it.
im floating above, yet the feeling is so grounding, so powerful. this... so deep, so high. i feel like this is the most beautiful thing my ears and body have experienced with music~
Beautiful melancholy. My mind goes to the desperate souls risking everything in the Mediterranean, Aegean, or Rio Grande for a hope of something better, “don’t lose their mercy.” ❤️
This is more just an amazing track, this is an ANTHEM. When this comes up on my Pandora station, the volume is maxed and I am singing along with. Such power and emotion. This hits me on every level it can and right to my core.
If you are listening to this awesome newer music from Zero 7 waiting with every breath for the new release, then you have extremely great taste in music. Peace from Detroit MI.
I got to know Jem's voice from the Camelphat & Christoph's "Breathe" and I loved it at first sound...the synergy with Zero7 is something ethereal, sensual and profound as well. Keep the magic going!
Grew up listening to Zero7 from my parents and everytime I hear them I feel like a kid back in time. Their sound reverberates such a melancholic and beautiful energy.
Ca fait des années que j’écoute 7Z, jamais lassé toujours heureux de les retrouver sur mes chemins de vie …une des groupes les plus incroyables de ce début de siècle…
This has brought tears to my eyes, chaps! It is so great to hear your wonderfully unique sound again, and with a great vocal. Indelible memories of the Brixton, Manchester, Shepherds Bush and a gazillion plays of your previous albums. Huge congrats, and thank you for all your beautiful music down the years.
i was a teen when i was introduced to zero 7, by a girlfriend who shared a cd demo back then. Now after like ages, im in my mid 30s, still listening to zero 7, married with kids. I have no idea where she is now :) Zero 7 Transends generations.
Oh man...this is like running into an old friend you haven't seen in a decade and picking up the conversation like it was just yesterday.
This is the best summation of a feeling I've ever seen in a RUclips comment
Well put 3Ddash 👍
I was going to say something here but I realized you've said it better than I would have. Cheers!
Amen
This is such a true statement. I discovered them in my 20's. I'm now 42 and still come back...
most Criminally underrated groups I've ever known. Brilliant work
See Late Night Alumni.
No doubt!
thankfully we have YT 😉
agreed. No one does harmony and melody like zero 7. HANDS DOWN
Absolutely

EPIC
Ahhh I love when a perfect song comes on at a perfect moment, creating a core memory. Beautiful 😍
Anyone else getting goosebumps listening to this beautiful song?
Yes! Their music let’s me travel through time…
Definitly YES! ;-)
Just absolutely brilliant
I'm 68 years old,sat at 2.30 in the morning

Timeless

unfortunately coronavirus exists 😭
I’ve seen them thrice now snd they were awesome each time!! Can’t wait to see them again!
@@htsdav1d only the fear that it does
If you're still listening to this Masterpiece, you have a good taste in music. 💞👌😊👍
Your definitely a fan bro as I am
Simply be uTfull...❤
You better believe it
- absolutely!! ;)
It is
I've been rocking with Zero 7 for 20 years. Welcome to 2020, everyone.
I´ve found this band just 3 months ago and I can´t stop listening since. Great great music.
me toooooooooooo its been so long, I am so happy
@@alfredoalessandretti158 It was around the same time for me too, isn't it brilliant to have all of their music to catch up on! I absolutely love this track, and great to watch them live!
I just got into them , man , what I've missed !!!
Me to. Always loved them 😍
Damn I love their music

Wild stuff here
its the les paul to, it makes it, and hearing henrys voice cleaer, its bliss
Yeah these guys are amazing live, true musicians
Went to share the original then went with this one...
I want to buy this live version too. Its great.
Over the years Zero 7 seems to have unearthed a stream of great female singers...and the pattern continues.
All their vocalists m/f have always been special .
They definitely have a style and sound preference. It’s up to the singers if they can expand and break out on their own tho. Like Sia
Facts 🍪
Those two guys just have impeccable taste when it comes to music and they know a special voice when they hear it. They know how to utilise those excellent vocalists perfectly. This song is already legendary in my book. 😊
God I love this song! It's got that classic Zero7 sound and feeling, bittersweet, soft and still with a beat. I am so happy you went this way and I'm looking forward to more. ❤️
It is divine
Goosebumps.They attract the best vocalists
Jem Cooke what a beautiful voice. Perfect for Zero 7's dreamy tunes.
Zero 7's albums "simple things" is timeless and without a single dud. This live version of the song is on the same level. 10/10
The most well known, unknown band ever. Why aren’t Zero 7 World famous?
I feel sorry for people who haven't listened to Zero 7
As a lifetime fan, it is fun to see that this song is in the playlist of my 14yo Son and 9yo daughter.
Heck Ya! Gives me hope in our future! Well done, pops!
Make a full album on this sound!

Check their older albums. I feel like I've come back in time, this is beautiful.

Somersault is the stuff of dreams, Prince charming...play it ...hoping he notices it too...so far...dud. Goosebumps for me too.
I'm not sure how many more years and how many times I can hear this song and not get tired of it. Absolutely masterful.
This is probably in my top 20 songs of all time. Just beautiful. The whole human predicament in one song. Brilliant.
could you share your top 20 songs. Thanks.
@@levepedroI second this!
Most underrated song ever created
I’ve never heard Henry sing before, omg this is amazing!!
What a beautiful vocal melody with the female high and Henry doing the low octave. 💜💜🙏🏻🙏🏻💜💜🎹🎧
I could really hear an Anjunadeep remix here, my lord this is gold!!
Zero 7 is and always will be in a league of their own. They are a genre by themselves.
Utterly transcendental in ways, moving, evocative but so assuring to the extent one could play this endlessly loop to loop
Do you know
We are the young ghosts?
In reverse
Our stories unfold
Moving slow
We're just killing time
And we know
This fear is a crime
Surrender to your love
Surrender to your heart
Surrender
We are swimmers
Caught in the tide
Pitch black river
Shadows and light
Into the night
Beautiful swimmers
Losing the fight
A constant river
Shadows and light
Into the night
Coming home
We're shaking the grass
All alone
So far from the path
Do you know
I see you so clear?
Yes, I know
It's happening here
Surrender to your love
Surrender to your heart
Surrender
We are swimmers
Caught in the tide
Pitch black river
Shadows and light
Into the night
Beautiful swimmers
Losing the fight
A constant river
Shadows and light
Into the night
We are swimmers
Caught in the tide
Pitch black river
Shadows and light
Into the night
Beautiful swimmers
Losing the fight
A constant river
Shadows and light
Into the night
Tears flow when I hear 'em...most everytime.

The sound of Zero 7 always take me to an incredible state of mind
I am officially obsessed with this song - can't wait to hear more!
So am I!!!
Good luck! The make a song or two every year. I wish they would have built on the sound of Simple Things. More smooth instrumentals and less weird computer sounds with average singers and lyrics.
Vesper mesmerizing and beautiful
Zero 7 just never fail to write beautiful melodic tunes that relax the soul!
Gave me chills all the way through! Holy shit! Please never stop making music!
Im 23 year old dude from the hood and I fw this band 🤷🏾♂️😂💯 they 🔥 especially with Sia
This is now one of my favorite songs ever. What an incredibly beautiful piece.
Holy crap I've missed this band.
It's like I was in a deep sleep for years and finally awakened by the reemergence of Zero 7!
This session is just cooking along and taking a 64-year-old back over 30 years when I was recording friends set up in the sunken lounge of my home in the hills and it all just gels. On loop in my home studio right now... oh... a brilliant track as well of course! Thank you again!
Gorgeous Jem Cooke
Everything about this is absolute perfection.
perfettamente d'accordo.....bellissima
The lyrics for me is a short summary of life.
As a big fan of When It Falls and Simple Things, since their release, this is such a big leap and, somehow at the same time, a back to basics. Love it.
I hope they go on tour and make it to San Diego
im floating above, yet the feeling is so grounding, so powerful. this... so deep, so high. i feel like this is the most beautiful thing my ears and body have experienced with music~

Fan of your channel.. but now also of your music taste 🎶🙏
This has been my favorite song to listen to thru the covid era.
Mesmerizingly wondrous
I listened to this over and over studying for my B-777 endorsement
Beautiful melancholy. My mind goes to the desperate souls risking everything in the Mediterranean, Aegean, or Rio Grande for a hope of something better, “don’t lose their mercy.” ❤️
This is more just an amazing track, this is an ANTHEM. When this comes up on my Pandora station, the volume is maxed and I am singing along with. Such power and emotion. This hits me on every level it can and right to my core.
Another superlative song by my favorite Chill group of all time.
Don't lose that mercy❤❤❤❤

Ein Meisterstück das seines Gleichen ergänzt .
It's so good to welcome back Zero 7 to the music they belong and master. Beautiful song. Bravo !!
This is what I call music engineering. Sound meets Voice.

Sounds so good. Whole album, please!
We need more Zero 7! They hit the sweet spot in my soul!
