Definitely. It's something else. A great chorus, with absolute meaning to it. I tried for weeks to find this song with no help, then I found it. Was on the playlist when I worked my evening shift.
You got to do acid and hear this song. I saw them and dosed before hand it was a bit intense and at one point I felt like I could hear every instrument individually simultaneously in assembly. It was mad trippy
I love forgetting this song exists and then stumbling across it years later. Its like discovering it all over again, for the first time and it always evokes extremely strong emotions. Love it
Spent at least a few years trying to find this song (humming it to friends thinking I'm weird lol) Randomly pops up during auto play. Cannot describe how overwhelmed I am right now!
Ровно столько лет, как сейчас этой песне, я была со своим любимым 😢 (со школы были вместе, есть дочь, которой 6 лет) Сейчас переломный момент в моей жизни. Год назад мы купили в ипотеку квартиру, вроде всё хорошо - наконец никакого съемного жилья, новый этап в нашем маленьком мирке... Но ровно с тех пор он стал уходить в запои... Алкоголизм - это ужасное зло! Ненавижу алкоголиков, хоть и могу сама иногда выпить и даже лишнего, но не в ущерб кому-то, если дочка например гостит у бабушки и дедушки и мы отмечаем какой-то праздник. Но я знаю слово "стоп", и не пойду на следующий день снова употреблять. А он не может остановиться😢. Поэтому в данный момент я подаю на развод, ищу работу(т.к.раньше была зависима от него финансово) и моя жизнь должна резко поменяться... Пробовала разное за этот год, обращались к наркологу, к психотеропевту(2 сеанса, и всё. сказал что это всё ерунда и не пойдёт больше 🤦♀️) Клали в клинику лечиться, но оказалось что всё бесполезно 😢 Я люблю его, но больше люблю нашу дочь и недавно снова полюбила себя и решилась на развод.... Наткнулась на эту песню - и разрыдалась, ведь она была в самом начале наших отношений 😭😭😭 и какой печальный конец у этих отношений произошёл 😢 Пока алкоголик сам не захочет - невозможно его вылечить, к сожалению мне понадобился год, чтобы это понять... Если вы в такой же ситуации, то берите свою жизнь в свои руки, и бегите как можно дальше! И у меня и у вас всё будет хорошо 🙏
My beautiful daughter Loved this song 🎵 Sadly my daughter passed away 5yrs ago from battling anorexia she was only 24 😢 every time I here this song I have beautiful memories ❤ miss my beautiful daughter endlessly 😢
It's one of those songs that have an otherwordly quality and seem to come from other spheres. A little eerie and surreal but fascinating and absolutely beautiful ...
This song just gives you emotions that are unexplainable, they make you feel like your in a different world. I can feel my soul when i listen to this song.
thats music for you. if you haven't experience this feeling yet than idk what to say. its pretty sad really. there is an ocean of music that has this expierience waiting for you to untap it.
My father and I used to listen to this song those days, I was only five and it was his favorite, he passed away in 2012 These days I come here by my own and listen to this song over and over again, words can't describe how i feel about it
this songs gives me a weird feeling. a feeling of happiness and sadness, its quite weird actually. Makes me just wanna travel the world with a close group of people. Makes me wanna study abroad, learn a instrument. Almost makes me scared to grow up knowing such a good song like this will only get older and older. huh talk about the power of music.
First time i heard this song was after i came back to Australia after traveling asia for 8 months. The feelings this song gave me were amazing with feelings of freedom and memories of being free.
You just exactly described how I feel about this song... Other songs that makes me feel the same way are Walk of Life with Dire Straits, Romeo And Juliet with Dire Straits and Black Lemon with Generationals, if you want to hear some songs that maybe also can make you feel the same way as this song does...
@@bandfromtheband9445 i used to really like the song but now i just hear the potential of how much refined the quality could be. Imagine they reworked it
When I was in middle school my teacher always listen to this group because of him I fell in love with empire of the sun been listening to them for like 9 years now
This song is timeless. I suddenly had and urge to listen to this , remembering I once had on TV years back , and now I can't stop! I've been listening to it for days!
My favourite song of all time, I was 38 when this came out,now 54 still listening and my daughter always says it reminds her of me as I listen to it so much ,Its hard to fathom how these years go by so fast.
2009 memories. This song used to tear me apart during a really hard time I was going through but now I reflect back on it and appreciate what I have become.
@@ugnius2707stay strong brothers/sisters it gets better with time, I used to listen to this song while serving my time now I got my life in handle again
Just discovered this song 2 days ago and I am almost 50. Since then I listened it for 50 times and can’t get enough of it. What a Fantastic song. One in a million.
@@bullet1544 Yes but I would probably liked this song 10 years ago as well :-) But what I really meant was that this song seems to be 12 years old and I never discovered it before.
Less than ten years still. Let us drink it in whilst the time is still ripe. This is an astonishing tune that I never put time toward in the year that I discovered (and adored) the School of Seven Bells
I discovered this song 14 years ago and instantly loved it. My granddaughter who was under two listened as I played it over and over. 14 years later I am finally going to see them live and taking my granddaughter (who is now 15). Her favourite song is Walking on a Dream.
I usually listen to this song 30 -40 times in a sitting. Then I take a break for a week or so and come back and do it all again. This song is sooo special.
The chorus is so freaking nice. Don't get me wrong, I think the whole song is great, but when he starts in "I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me but I know I try, I are you gonna leave me now, can't you be believing now!" Flippin' goosebumps mate...
I was 34 when this was released (2010)? and just about to leave a nasty, abusive partner. I used to blast this through the headphones when he sat downstairs. I left him at the end of that year and it turned very, very nasty but I got through it in time. 2020. I'm married to a man who also had an abusive ex (female) so we get each other. Finally, trying for a family. Don't let life get you down...ever x
Maybe the Spanish ''subtitle' makes you sad. I translated some of them. Is this the path to the Goddes? You are digging a grave It's for you This is dead ..
@@mytrueself1598 wow.... They put more work into the production of their videos than any other from this genre... They really want to fix the world , and it's clear. I hope you're well friend, and everything in your life is full of joy
I remember the times during my heartbreak when this song premiered. My gf left me for a month, not telling me why she left me. I cried every day and this song always came on the radio and mtv. This song will forever remind me of my ex-gf. Its part of my history now. It was my first break up in 2009, and ever since then, and now, I am still single.
I discovered this band and song right around the time my boyfriend at the time ended our relationship. I still recall that universal feeling of not being alone when I heard this song. Empire of the Sun soothed my once broken heart. I'll never forget how healing their music always is .♡
It's one of these songs that you are obsessed and it kinda makes you feel some type of way that you can't explain. I love this one and it's unforgettable
This was my foster mums favourite song, always used to play it when she cleaned up! She used to say it was a tidying up song! She sadly took her own life and we played it at her funeral, now my children and her grandchildren along with all her friends and family listen to it while cleaning up! Just puts a massive smile on my face 😘
Such a stunning song and video and I am glad that you can listen to it and it reminds you of your Foster Mum-i too am very sorry for your loss but she will always be with you when you listen to that song-thats the Power of Music X
Goosebumps every time! Love this part especially... "I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me But I know I try Are you gonna leave me now Can't you be believing now "
I love this part for so many reasons. The vulnerability of the lyrics, and the way he softly says them after wailing the first part. And the quick look of mistrust he gives the camera after the verse. So good.
@@omega-levelnightmares3763 These guys have solo projects as well. They came together on the 1 guys album to do a song called "With you forever." His electro-band is called Pnau. Great band and great song!
Bro im 28 and i feel the same!! I just pray i live that long. And if i do im n a different state if mind and a better place in my life because im struggling now and life was better 10 years ago. I jus pray it goes up from here!!! Ohhh yeah this song is 🔥🔥🔥 and makes thing!!
I'm 37, and recently I was trying to think of the best time in my life, and the answer I came up with was 27. I wasn't as broke as my student years, old enough to have independence, and not all my friends had settled down and had kids yet. It was like the perfect balance of adult/child. Enjoy it.
Bad things happen in life. Losing a parent Losing pets Losing a business Losing a wife Losing a home. I can’t figure how I’ve come to lose all of them in the space of 6 months. This song makes me have hope in the dark hole I’m feeling I’m stuck.
I literally had the same but with ill health and driving licence added to list brother.... 18 months after, I really did meet the love of my life,, that was 14 yrs ago and my feelings haven't changed a bit after 14 yrs.. . 5 weeks ago, she left, gone, I have my flat and my 14 yr old dog we both got.. I'm at least greatful for that, but again proves, life ain't a race, it's all about surviving and being happy as you can, as many days on earth as you can, just be thankful and happy as you're can. 52 yr old bricklayer, with faults like us all, but my big heart is broken,, but I know, someday soon I'll be laughing again like nothing ever has happened to me, ever..life's precious, keep happy 💔
Over 100 million views on RUclips alone doesn't equate a song that is underrated. There's so much amazing music out there that hardly anybody ever heard or ever will.
Ten years ago I was driving along a road between farm fields on a beautiful sunny day, heard this on the radio and felt free for the first time in my life. I've since very regularly been coming back to this particular song, because it holds a special place in my heart.
The chord changes and harmonies are second to none in this and Walking on a Dream. I met Nick once in London at an interview he was doing several years ago and he was super friendly, we talked about synths which we both have a passion for. Cool guy.
@@nist516 musica leggerissima was first performed on March 3, 2021, at Sanremo Music Festival, and instantly became viral in Italy, both as a radio hit and a meme.
Exactly 15 years ago, in December 2009, I bought the album "Walking on a dream" as we call it "blind" in the Virgin Megastore in Dubai. Because I liked the cover of the album. No Spotify or MTV video clip on RUclips or whatsoever. When I came home and listened to it, I was addicted to this album. The rest is history.
We Are The People" We can remember swimming in December Heading for the city lights in 1975 We share in each other Nearer than farther The scent of a lemon drips from your eyes We are the people that rule the world A force running in every boy and girl All rejoicing in the world Take me now, we can try We lived an adventure Love in the Summer Followed the sun till night Reminiscing other times of life For each every other The feeling was stronger The shock hit eleven, got lost in your eyes I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave But I know I try Are you gonna leave me now? Can't you be believing now? I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave But I know I try Are you gonna leave me now? Can't you be believing now? Can you remember and humanise? It was still where we'd energised Lie in the sand and visualise Like it's '75 again We are the people that rule the world A force running in every boy and girl All rejoicing in the world Take me now, we can try I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave But I know I try Are you gonna leave me now? Can't you be believing now? I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave But I know I try Are you gonna leave me now? Can't you be believing now? I know everything about you You know everything about me We know everything about us I know everything about you You know everything about me We know everything about us I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave But I know I try Are you gonna leave me now? Can't you be believing now? I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave But I know I try Are you gonna leave me now? Can't you be believing now? [Faded] I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave But I know I try Are you gonna leave me now? Can't you be believing now?
Came across this as I just chose a random song on the side bar, I will never regret that decision! The chorus is just magic. Don't know what I would do without music like this...
Steven Stratton Music is the escape man! your point of view is true. whatever float your type of music is different opinion to other ears. I believe music bring us together. we share the same feeling. that's a start if you disagree. what made you come here from the beginning? person to concern is a person that cares. still disagree that's pure hate!
Mugicianwill ah yes, the magic of sidebar surfing. sometimes I enter into a time-warp and lose hours out of my day to exploring this digital frontier. were like modern cowboys :P
So I've been listening to this song for the past 48 hours after years of trying to find it - my friend randomly played it in the car the other night. I can't describe the joy. Love from Ireland ✌🏻💜
I've cried troughout the whole video, just remembering the times with my mother, listening to this when I was around 3 or 4 years old. I didn't understand a word, I just liked the song very much. It brings me back to those times. Sadly, I'm never able to experience that feeling ever again. I love you forever mom. Fly high, we will miss you ❤
@coybi not sure about elsewhere in the world, but here in the UK it didn't become a chart hit until May 2009. In any event, you're right in that by either logic, it would now be 15 or 16 years ago
This song has the power of never sound old but still makes you nostalgic, it makes you think about the future and also apreciate the present. It is absurd how a song can have so many details to make you feel like that.
Without doubt an absolute musical masterpiece. This track just gets better everytime you hear it. Best song I've heard in the last 30 years Without doubt again.
Crazy to think I was getting made fun of in middle school/high school for listening to Empire of the Sun. Now their music is everywhere. Makes me happy to see great artists being recognized and not just the same old basic thing. 😌
If anyone is curious, the building they are at in the forest is a real place in Mexico called Las Pozas. It was built in the tropical mountains by a British poet who wanted to create a surreal version of the Garden of Eden. Look it up!
woah couldn't listen to this for like 2 years because i forgot the name of the song -.- It's just so beatifull to rediscover this and now whenever im feeling down i just get out into the sun listen to this and smile.... Never found a song that gives you such a powerfull feeling of hapiness and peace
This was "our" song with my ex-wife... I remember laying in the bed and speaking about which future we will create. Little we know about how it will end... I dont miss her. I miss who i think she was
this song is literally magical , it makes me feel like I’m in an another dimension
You are

God I still love this song. After all these years. Magical
It still makes me go back to 2000s and 2010s days!
This song is the perfect driving song. It’s a vibe
Yes sir. Driving the back roads late at night
“Perfect song to be going double the limit in the domesticated areas” you mean surely.

It’s not possible to hear this without either getting nostalgia, or good vibes

Never get's old this Song.
Never letting this flame die 🔥
This song never gets old, been listening to it for 10+ years...
In 30 years i will still hear this
Well it comes all the time in the radio
it is very weird like really it never gets old
who is here 2020?
If you remember this song
you are not old
You are high quality vintage
I was 34 when this was released (2010)? and just about to leave a nasty, abusive partner. I used to blast this through the headphones when he sat downstairs. I left him at the end of that year and it turned very, very nasty but I got through it in time.
2020. I'm married to a man who also had an abusive ex (female) so we get each other. Finally, trying for a family.
Don't let life get you down...ever x
I discovered it this week and I can't stop listen it !
I was like 4 when i was listenening to this
White Man is VERY funny
you r not old,u just wise
Hosea 8:7
For they have sown the wind,
and they shall reap the whirlwind.
I drive my car, my son 6 years old near me. I think about him, I wish him a peaceful future for all the time. Greats from German ❤️
Is it just me that this song brings to tears every time, thinking about how great the good old times were?
Nostalgia BURNS!
you're not alone!
Same here
Maybe the Spanish ''subtitle' makes you sad. I translated some of them.
Is this the path to the Goddes?
You are digging a grave
It's for you
This is dead ..
@@mytrueself1598 wow.... They put more work into the production of their videos than any other from this genre... They really want to fix the world , and it's clear. I hope you're well friend, and everything in your life is full of joy
I remember the times during my heartbreak when this song premiered. My gf left me for a month, not telling me why she left me. I cried every day and this song always came on the radio and mtv. This song will forever remind me of my ex-gf. Its part of my history now. It was my first break up in 2009, and ever since then, and now, I am still single.
I discovered this band and song right around the time my boyfriend at the time ended our relationship. I still recall that universal feeling of not being alone when I heard this song. Empire of the Sun soothed my once broken heart. I'll never forget how healing their music always is .♡

It's one of these songs that you are obsessed and it kinda makes you feel some type of way that you can't explain. I love this one and it's unforgettable
absolutely!
indeed, we all feel that
i‘m so happy that everyone here feels the same way and no one of us can explain what this feeling is
very much so !
@@choisanscroptop7809 For me it's like nostalgia and happiness. Great song.
This was my foster mums favourite song, always used to play it when she cleaned up! She used to say it was a tidying up song! She sadly took her own life and we played it at her funeral, now my children and her grandchildren along with all her friends and family listen to it while cleaning up! Just puts a massive smile on my face 😘
💗🌅🌄🌈🙏
I'm very sorry for your loss. Know full well she had wonderful taste while here.
Such a stunning song and video and I am glad that you can listen to it and it reminds you of your Foster Mum-i too am very sorry for your loss but she will always be with you when you listen to that song-thats the Power of Music X
Sorry....
Sorry for your loss sounds like she was a trip x
One of the only songs that touches my soul and elevates me deeply, every single time i hear it.
(Revelation - John - Chapter 5:13...)
Blessing and honor and glory and power Be to Him Who sits on the throne, And to The Lamb, forever and ever.
@@Jakub-kw1rx yes jakub, an insightful contribution. praise be to Allah
I love listening to this when running. Sometimes, when no one is watching I’ll slow down and add some groove 😁
Fr!!!
What?
1:16 hits just right
Goosebumps every time! Love this part especially... "I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now
Can't you be believing now "
I love this part for so many reasons. The vulnerability of the lyrics, and the way he softly says them after wailing the first part.
And the quick look of mistrust he gives the camera after the verse. So good.
@@cassimiano3556 Right? Stumbled on these a while ago and haven't heard a bad one yet
@@omega-levelnightmares3763 These guys have solo projects as well. They came together on the 1 guys album to do a song called "With you forever." His electro-band is called Pnau. Great band and great song!
@@cassimiano3556 Amazing! Will give it a listen
It's the major seventh chord. The most moving chord.Makes you feel warm.
As long as this song exists, everything is gonna be fine.
this is true
💫✨🖤🎧
YT will delete it too, mark my words.
@@PianoGesang Why?
You saying this makes me immediately think of Dr. Stone
I'm 27 I remember this song when I was 17 how time flys il be 37 in another 10years life goes way to quick remember to appreciate every moment
reminiscing other times of life
Me also
Bro im 28 and i feel the same!! I just pray i live that long. And if i do im n a different state if mind and a better place in my life because im struggling now and life was better 10 years ago. I jus pray it goes up from here!!! Ohhh yeah this song is 🔥🔥🔥 and makes thing!!
I'm 37, and recently I was trying to think of the best time in my life, and the answer I came up with was 27. I wasn't as broke as my student years, old enough to have independence, and not all my friends had settled down and had kids yet. It was like the perfect balance of adult/child. Enjoy it.
I was 4 or 3 lol
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave but I know I try
I feel that
Bad things happen in life.
Losing a parent
Losing pets
Losing a business
Losing a wife
Losing a home.
I can’t figure how I’ve come to lose all of them in the space of 6 months.
This song makes me have hope in the dark hole I’m feeling I’m stuck.
Lead with love always brother.
I literally had the same but with ill health and driving licence added to list brother....
18 months after, I really did meet the love of my life,, that was 14 yrs ago and my feelings haven't changed a bit after 14 yrs.. . 5 weeks ago, she left, gone, I have my flat and my 14 yr old dog we both got.. I'm at least greatful for that, but again proves, life ain't a race, it's all about surviving and being happy as you can, as many days on earth as you can, just be thankful and happy as you're can. 52 yr old bricklayer, with faults like us all, but my big heart is broken,, but I know, someday soon I'll be laughing again like nothing ever has happened to me, ever..life's precious, keep happy 💔
Light and love to you brother
Ouch, ouch, ouch! Life brings lessons sometimes through pain. Wishing you time to learn from past and prepare to forge a happy future.
Stay strong..
This song is so underrated it’s criminal. “We are the people” is a great recording with all of the elements of a classic pop song.
It’s great but not really underrated. Everybody knows it. Been in commercials and such.
And a message to the peoples of our planet
Over 100 million views on RUclips alone doesn't equate a song that is underrated. There's so much amazing music out there that hardly anybody ever heard or ever will.
100 million views is underrated???
@@AlexAlcyone , i noticed over the decades growing up that words are often inverted by new generations
to mean the opposite of what they used to mean
I imagine this song as the first song you listen after you die and your whole life flashes in front of your eyes
Rob Rock 👍. Spot on
August 2024 anyone? Intriguing wonderful song..stirs so many emotions without knowing why..amazing 😍🥰
19th September 2024 😊 so rather late, I’m afraid.
Why have i only found this song now? the past 6 years of my life have been for nothing.
same! i heard this song and Walking on dream? in the film Hall Pass last night.
Lol....
Willie Murray loved these tune from the minute that I heard it
does that mean youre only seven im wheezing
or maybe it's been six years that this song came out...
I find this song very melancholic. I dunno why. :'D
Same here
Joona Koski I feel the same way.
Joona Koski me too
Joona Koski well its not the kind of song you will party hard with!
+Joona Koski pure crap world being not nice to other people
Ten years ago I was driving along a road between farm fields on a beautiful sunny day, heard this on the radio and felt free for the first time in my life. I've since very regularly been coming back to this particular song, because it holds a special place in my heart.
Same but for me, it was the nice comfort of being a little kid.
So deep
That’s beautiful
@@thelowground7741 same with me man.. was 16 then.. now 24.. such a comforting vibe
Wow Mike.. This song can carry you away time and time again.. It just speaks to you. Hello from Ireland.
THE BIBLE STATES: “IT IZ EASIER FÖR A CAMEL TO PASS THROUGH THE EYE OF A NEEDLE THAN FÖR THE RICH TO GET INTO HEAVEN”. TRUER WORDS WERE NEVER SPOKEN
Just spent an hour of my life trying to find this song. It's now 4:40am, time well spent
I'm so happy that you found it!
nonetheless you were still up at 3:40am 🤣
@@wedothis1563 I was up trying to meet uni work deadlines 😂
I found this song because my uncle had an idea of playing this song in our band
Where do you even start? I've got songs in my head and can't find them
The chord changes and harmonies are second to none in this and Walking on a Dream. I met Nick once in London at an interview he was doing several years ago and he was super friendly, we talked about synths which we both have a passion for. Cool guy.
All this needs is a stronger bass line.
@@EOTA564 Its perfect as it is
Why so many Italians commenting here?
...
Scherzavo, sono italiano anch'io. Ciao a tutti!
musica leggerissima
found it, and listened, and enjoyed, it appears to be a similar melody? the lyrics are different. Hard to tell not being Italian
@@nist516 actually there's no revelant similarities between the two songs, except for the intro.
@@AntonioSedicina yeah i immediately picked up on that, I thought for a moment it was a cover.
@@nist516 musica leggerissima was first performed on March 3, 2021, at Sanremo Music Festival, and instantly became viral in Italy, both as a radio hit and a meme.
Exactly 15 years ago, in December 2009, I bought the album "Walking on a dream" as we call it "blind" in the Virgin Megastore in Dubai. Because I liked the cover of the album. No Spotify or MTV video clip on RUclips or whatsoever. When I came home and listened to it, I was addicted to this album. The rest is history.
We Are The People"
We can remember swimming in December
Heading for the city lights in 1975
We share in each other
Nearer than farther
The scent of a lemon drips from your eyes
We are the people that rule the world
A force running in every boy and girl
All rejoicing in the world
Take me now, we can try
We lived an adventure
Love in the Summer
Followed the sun till night
Reminiscing other times of life
For each every other
The feeling was stronger
The shock hit eleven, got lost in your eyes
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now?
Can't you be believing now?
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now?
Can't you be believing now?
Can you remember and humanise?
It was still where we'd energised
Lie in the sand and visualise
Like it's '75 again
We are the people that rule the world
A force running in every boy and girl
All rejoicing in the world
Take me now, we can try
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now?
Can't you be believing now?
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now?
Can't you be believing now?
I know everything about you
You know everything about me
We know everything about us
I know everything about you
You know everything about me
We know everything about us
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now?
Can't you be believing now?
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now?
Can't you be believing now?
[Faded]
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now?
Can't you be believing now?
thank you

Thank you 🙏🏻
Hackney Bird welcome
just a beautiful poem.... love this song
Came across this as I just chose a random song on the side bar, I will never regret that decision! The chorus is just magic. Don't know what I would do without music like this...
Listen to misogynistic rap and puppets manufactured by music moguls..... Cowells crap and other constructed bullsh:t
Steven Stratton Music is the escape man! your point of view is true. whatever float your type of music is different opinion to other ears.
I believe music bring us together. we share the same feeling. that's a start if you disagree. what made you come here from the beginning? person to concern is a person that cares. still disagree that's pure hate!
Mugicianwill ah yes, the magic of sidebar surfing. sometimes I enter into a time-warp and lose hours out of my day to exploring this digital frontier. were like modern cowboys :P
+Mugicianwill Everything could have been anything else and it would have just as much meaning
This song makes me feel free. I can't explain it but it's like dancing to the sky or dancing in the rain. I love it 😌
u dont need a song to make u free! U ARE FREEEEEE
It feels like a song from some really really happy indie movie
Peace❤
It’s like sky full of stars cold play
@@swimteamsaj152Being free and feeling free are different things, sometimes even if you are free you don't feel that way.
2024 anyone?🎉
I'm lucky because I was a teenager when this song came out and now I can experience the most powerful nostalgia ever
Same
yup. better times
i remember having had friends, going on a winter vacation with them, this song played on MTV/radio every day, had a blast
So true
I am a teenager now but it still gives me much nostalgia because I remember loving this song in primary school ^^
I'm jealous. I was 7 when it came out. I'm 16 now and most new music is trash and everyone is just addicted to tik tok. I wish I was born earlier
After 9 years still one of my favorite songs of all time. This masterpiece never gets boring. ❤
Turkumusun laa
@@SamsungS-ry6lg Türküm 👍
@JTagStudios Found the song 9 years ago in a Vodafone Commercial 🔥
this song came out in 2008 though....
same
Stop asking who's still listening in 2021/2022/2023/2024, we will never stop listening
Outstanding....! ❤
A song that will never get old.
I only first heard this song in an electro club in some pre-gentrified skidrow, flannel in tow. Slutty coked up pre-social media girls.
Fantastic song ♥️
@@ibrahimkutukcu5966 Hey, its only 10 years, dont exagerrate it's old😂
This makes me miss Arizona. I grew up there, we lived there for a good half of my life and this song feels like a reminder of that part of who I am.
So I've been listening to this song for the past 48 hours after years of trying to find it - my friend randomly played it in the car the other night. I can't describe the joy. Love from Ireland ✌🏻💜
This track is my soul
Love from Ireland 💚
Well said fran
... также нашел её случайно ... спустя много лет ... рад безумно !!! Привет из России 🇷🇺 😁✌🤙💥
Love from FL U.S.A
One of my favorite songs of all time. It feels like I’m in another world with no work or school. Just relaxation❤️
I've cried troughout the whole video, just remembering the times with my mother, listening to this when I was around 3 or 4 years old. I didn't understand a word, I just liked the song very much. It brings me back to those times. Sadly, I'm never able to experience that feeling ever again. I love you forever mom. Fly high, we will miss you ❤
Rest in Peace! I feel the same man...
😘
I am very sorry for your loss.. Jesus Christ is always with you brother :) 🤍
Oh Raymond...So many years gone...so many memories of trying..
Ethereal.....makes me feel like I could float. Thanks to Honda for introducing me to these guys. Really digging this music.
One of the greatest songs ever written. Oh my god I have never heard anything like this in my life!
Me toooooo
14 years later we are still here, thank you so much for writing a piece of world music history ❤
It's nostalgic for no reason 😂
Wdym 14 years? The song came out in 2008
@@felipessunshinemaybe they miss-counted
@coybi not sure about elsewhere in the world, but here in the UK it didn't become a chart hit until May 2009. In any event, you're right in that by either logic, it would now be 15 or 16 years ago
2024?
This song has the power of never sound old but still makes you nostalgic, it makes you think about the future and also apreciate the present. It is absurd how a song can have so many details to make you feel like that.
you're right
Well said
if youre high, right...
Ppp
Your right there is no other song like it
This is so quirky and possibly a timeless track. It doesn't fit into any genre but it captures you and takes you on a journey.
The chorus of this song is one of the best production ever... looks like it takes me to another planet!
Regards to everyone from Portugal.
Yet its so simple
Hold tight people ❤ it’s going to be ok , faith in human nature x
🤝🙌✊️💙💚🧡
Without doubt an absolute musical masterpiece. This track just gets better everytime you hear it. Best song I've heard in the last 30 years Without doubt again.
This is a little bit too much...
An absolute banger. True talent

I agree these guys definitely didn't get the accolades that they deserve.
Can see where youre coming from .. incredible track . We've got our own faves. Deffo in my top 500
Crazy to think I was getting made fun of in middle school/high school for listening to Empire of the Sun. Now their music is everywhere. Makes me happy to see great artists being recognized and not just the same old basic thing. 😌
It's not because of this music that you were made fun of.
Why the hell would you be made fun of for listening to this?
@@tabutu1 What's that supposed to mean?
@Lord Pembridge I have no clue. It wasn't heard of where I grew up.

Can you remember and humanize? Anyone here in 2024?
Yes.I am here
If anyone is curious, the building they are at in the forest is a real place in Mexico called Las Pozas. It was built in the tropical mountains by a British poet who wanted to create a surreal version of the Garden of Eden. Look it up!
Thx 4 the reference!
Awesome, thank you!
Oh! That makes sense. I thought it was Xilitla for a second when I saw the staircase and ledge
Thanks I thought it was Mexico with the Day of the Dead feel to it.
Comments like this are great.
14 years later and this song is still ahead of its time.
Best Empire Of The Sun song
jbmalbrunot it's cool but I like Walking on a Dream better
I like both, i can't choose which is better. But i think we can agree this is a great album, right?
