We loved singing along with you, The Midnight! Let's do it again. xo The West Los Angeles Children's Choir
You 've done a great job.
Your part in this song is just unbelievably beautiful, fantastic work!
absolutely when theres choirs in music like this. everyone nailed it
We love hearing it!! ❤❤❤ You all got to sing with a really cool band that means alot to some of us :')
Nailed it!
"The seasons pass but the monsters stay."
This line feels like it has such a double meaning to it. On the one hand, even when we grow up, we carry the scars of our childhood with us. But, on the other hand, there's something painful about returning to your childhood home and seeing all the old familiar things that you've left behind. The way even a random room of the house could have so much meaning to you as a kid, and now, even though it's just a room, that whole mythology - good and bad - comes rushing back. The old toys that used to have names. The darkness in the basement that's just darkness now. We even leave our monsters behind.
Leaves you with that feeling of total impermanence and the inability to reach the old again. It’s like you get to window shop the memories of your own lives, all you can do is look, never touch. It’s a fitting way you put it, with the things that stuck with us and things that make us have our breath taken away still.
i never had a childhood home, by the time i was in grade nine i had lived in over 20 different homes across Canada.. I wish I has a childhood home to go back to.. to have some memories and an anchor point. As you get older you reminisce about your youth, regrets and things you would redo. This song is such a gut punch, i had heard it two years ago and lost it.. i just found it again and hits even harder now.
@@ianskinner1619 i guess i should ask, if you don’t have defined memories to look back on from one place, how does this hit you?
@@drakesmith471 easy, most have a place that they can call 'home' that place they grew up and defined their lives, the friends they made that they may still have. the teachers names they remember the community they knew. I don't know any of that. This song is 2 fold, the youth i had in the 80's hanging out in the arcades at the mall, that disappeared over time and the absence of a place to ' go home ' to
God speak 😉
This song encompasses everything that was amazing about growing up in 1980's/90's blue collar middle America, and it also perfectly captures the melancholy feeling an entire generation has now, knowing that their kids were robbed of living that same magical youth. Blockbuster. Malls. Nintendo 64. Riding bikes until the streetlights come on. Pizza hut actually being good. Living in a two parent single income home. Living rooms with warm rugs and cars with wood interior panels. The sounds. The smells. The tastes. The Feelings. This song just makes you relive all of it for 6 minutes.
While I'm pretty sure generations before and after will find the beauty in their childhoods like you did you did describe it beautifully
I think you're overselling the 80's and 90's. Rose tinted glasses at play.
Hence why I hate this generation so much I would trade it all to live in the 90s I should've been born in 96 not 98 it would've gave me a chance to experience of the golden age of America if not the world I was completely robbed😔
@@Elitesolider1023 Let the past be your roadmap to our future. Give your kids the Childhood that was taken from you.
Ur soul right
I'm baffled at the fact that no footage exists of a live crowd singing this song cause that would be the hypest most emotional shit ever. How has that not happened?
Anyone else find this song incredibly emotional.
Seasons pass but the monsters stay.
I interpret that as personal demons that stay with us. Depression, anxiety.
Gets me every time i listen.
It's my interpretation too. But I'm just a Xennial with my demons, and a straight face to my attempts at adulting.
I just wonder what "monsters" mean - Is that the character ?
They told us that the monsters under the bad are not real. We grew up only to find out the truth. Anxiety, regret, failure, depression. Oh, the monsters are real. Not under the bed, they live in our heads.
I think the "monsters" also refer to all the cultural dysfunction that we are facing now (Iike divorce culture, bad economy, debt, increasingly strained relations with other people and communities, hyped up "issues" thrown in our faces constantly by news media, and so on.) It refers to the affects and aftermath on the "the kids" (the Millennials) and "the parents" (Boomers.)
All these different interpretations of this lovely song, each one very plausible.
That's how you know it's good...
Hearing the sound of children fading away at the outro is like the ending of a replay of your childhood memories 🥺
I thought the same thing. I thought it symbolized: childhood doesn’t last long, but the memories from it and everything else we never understood last forever.
Couldn't be any more true bro.
😢😭💔🇧🇷
Read a mindblowing quote. "One day, you and your best friends played together for the last time and none of you knew it."
I know😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Synthwave has this way of making me feel nostalgic for a time I never knew. Does anyone else experience this?
@@melgibsonaftertwobeers6119 what was '91 like
This is retrowave, a subgenre of synthwave. This subgenre is designed with that idea.
It was a good time..that's for sure, even as a kid. Much simpler times in many ways. Everything is so tense now.
Oh yeahhh brings back alot of positive vibes and memories 😁
91? The 80's were amazing. Such a timeless era. Wish things were as simple as things were back then. Kids today are so unbelievably spoiled and detached. 🥺
to me this album feels like its the loss of childhood, of things and time moving on. the magic is moving on, and the monsters that kids feared are still there, they just have changed to new monsters but have never gone away (monsters being the fears we all have)
I feel like people don't understand this album at all and really overlooked its significance. They say things like Endless Summer was a blast from the past, Nocturnal was dark and mature. But in truth both those albums are just fantastical ponderings of a period of time and corresponding aesthetics (except for ''Los Angeles''). THIS album is the true nostalgic tribute to the passing of that era, this album addresses the sad truth about the passing of time and how we grow to accept things as they change. A far far more mature emotion and in a way darker too as we can only look back in time with melancholy fondness.. Every note in this song is a transitional element of pure nostalgia. The very essence of retrowave but not by mimicking what's been but by expressing what it truly is.
Well.. that's not music. That's MAGIC!!
This song is so beautiful and sad. It made me think about my childhood and cry. For all the things that were given importance other than love and family. My monster was and is the drive to be successful and make money, the monster that ate my family because no amount of money and success was ever enough.
Thank you for this bitter sweet catharsis.
This is soothing for the hole in my heart, but it aches at the same time.
The Midnight has transcended the genre.
Dude, youre so right!
When I listen to Endless Summer, I get this feeling about the longevity of life and its promise if we just leave behind what we've known in search of what's out there for us. Nocturnal is darker, more emotional, and much more personal. A statement about the madness and directionless nature everyone feels at the end of a relationship. Kids feels closer to Endless Summer, and in a way, it's a prequel to that project. It's that time of everyone's life before they even realize there's something beyond the "arcade." The lack of saxophone actually helps to justify this point. The saxophone is usually interpreted as being such a mature instrument, and Kids is trying to capture a slightly less adult theme. It's not like the limitless possibility of Endless Summer or the feeling of being lost in Nocturnal. It's one day. It's one moment. It's messy, carefree, and honest. While the lyrics have certainly matured, almost in contradiction to the rest of the album, the direction is less focused than their previous efforts. The sound is more synth than anything they've done up to this point, but for the project itself, it fits. Altogether, it's a rich album that re-enforces the band's accomplishments, even though it ultimately doesn't add to them.
Days of Thunder has never left my phone since I put it on there, I think, two years ago, but I always seem to forget about it. In a way, I think that's the best way to answer your question. The songs are always there, and I especially love "Kick Drums and Red Wine", "Gloria", and the eponymous track, but unless the shuffle chooses any of the songs from that EP, I always seem to forget about them. Like, if I'm out jogging and the phone randomly starts playing "We Move Forward", I'll catch a second wind, but when the song ends, it's like I forget that the EP even exists. Though, I like Days of Thunder as a whole, whereas with Endless Summer, I definitely prefer select tracks versus listening to the entire album. Nocturnal, I could play on repeat for hours, and I've done so MANY TIMES.
Great review! Couldn't agree more. Sax or not, these guys are something else.
Maybe it's meant to be short and safe, for must of us we are reminiscing about our past...but we live in the present. Those memories we have are short compared to our lives as adults, and we need to keep them safe so we can do our best to be forever young.
I'm a bit disappointed by this album. It has some great tracks - Lost Boy and America 2 are both up there with my favourite songs of theirs, and Explorers is great too. But the album lacks that storytelling feeling that the previous albums had. I've listened to it twice today, and it just doesn't absorb me the same way the previous albums do. I wonder if it will grow on me, but really I think this should have been released as an EP, or held back until a few more songs were written to tie it all together. I was hyped for another Endless Summer or Nocturnal, and as enjoyable as Kids is, it just isn't on their level.
The first song of Days of the Thunder I am using for my wedding intro into the church listen to it and imagine the church doors opening when the Bass kicks in when she enters , Days of the Thunder well thats the intro to the Reception
To me "the seasons change and the monsters stay" is about childhood trauma and pain not disappearing just because the kid has grown up.
You made a masterpiece. You make a melancholic man like me going back to some era he never really lived. And - I don’t know why - this song makes me feel strong the will to write here the love I feel for my parents, in a difficult moment like this for me. Thank you. And greetings from Italy.
I feel exactly the same. I lived my childhood at early 2000's, but this gets me nostalgia i never had.
Sento esattamente le stesse cose anch'io, non ho mai provato niente del genere per un qualcosa legato alla musica in maniera così potente, è veramente un qualcosa di assurdo
Me too... it's called "anemoia" my friend 🙃🙃🙃
Makes me sad!! I really miss being a kid. Midnight you guys are so talented. When I listen to your music it feels like youre singing to my soul❤ I cant go a day without listening to you guys.
Same here too guys. After I listened all the track from The Midnight seems like the other artist just faking music.
Can't wait the next Europe tour!
This song hits close to home. I was born in the 90's, and I was just old enough to see the Dan River Mill close thanks to NAFTA. All the little businesses around it left shortly thereafter. The Downtown area is a ghost town. Sears, Kmart, Dick's, Petco, and other small stores have left this year. The mall arcade closed years ago, soon the mall will close soon. It's just sad to watch the town fall apart. Many people my age are on drugs to cope with life. Most American cities went through something similar and moved on. I feel like time stands still here. Maybe it's time for the kids to grow up and move away.
Welcome to Globalism, and Capitalism. The people who owned the mill didn't live in your town, and don't care about anyone.
ahhh your comment made me cry while listening to this song, especially the last thing you said "Maybe it's time for the kids to grow up and move away". I was born in the early 90s and it was such a time of innocence, I miss my childhood so much. Growing up as a kid back then was so nice, no social media and distractions. Just the plain outdoors and exploring with the neighborhood kids, going rollerblading, etc.
500 jobs overseas. Its all got to be cheap cheap cheap cheap. Gotta increase those margins! Even if it does mean dropping the communal commitments I believe all businesses have. Especially businesses that have hired huge chunks of local communities.
both Bicyclist and Jamesstevens are wrong, the reason malls are dying, businesses are dying, is because we are becoming a society that doesn't enjoy things that take more time, we rush and rush through our daily lives, everything has to be fast and convenient, so Malls die because no one is there to just enjoy it, you know, chill with a group of friends or make new ones, blow some change in a arcade to have cheap prizes and candy, just you know, enjoy the time you have left on this planet.. take things slow and have a good time, nope.. I want shoes, ok I order from amazon, I want food, ok, I go for Doordash and the nearest drive thru.
To this day, I regret not showing my friend Sam this. He would've loved this. R.I.P. Sam Whedbee, I miss you.
Solo at 03:12 is the most beautiful part of the song. Had it on repeat while working.
This band will never cease to blow me away with thier musicianship. Tyler's singing ,lyrics along with Tim's synth work is pure gold.
Makes me cry. 😢 A lot of kids in the world some are lost Forever. Sad isn’t it.
Indeed. Some are lost and never even get the chance to leave their wounded skin to grow up and live a fulfilled live. And everyone who got to know one of these kids will know just how miserable it feels when no love or friendship can ever be enough to make up for the burden that pulls them under...
foreign flag I liked what you said but my skin is wounded, and I’d love to grow up as a 19 year old, but I feel stuck in life and don’t know what to do with my life. Thank you for saying something at all even. Thank you.
@@blakeashcraft5158 I know it sounds cheesy but all you can really do is to follow your heart. Your intuition is the only thing that can lead you the way through life, no matter whether you are a wounded kid or not. And I've experienced that even the heart of a wounded can still know the right way. The question is whether you find the strength to follow it and win over whatever burden is weighing so heavy on your soul.
foreign flag well said.
foreign flag good talk, sir have a kickass day
this is the song that made me realize I’m not a kid anymore
to add on; I’m a 90s kid. growing up, the local mall did have an arcade, right next to the movie theater. me and my friends would go to watch movies then immediately hit the arcade. we played games, ate cheap, greasy pizza, goofed around. I don’t remember when exactly but one day when I was a little older I went to the mall and found the arcade had closed. i only talk with 2 of the friends I used to hang out with there.
But I still remember the taste of that pizza and the fun I had.
This song reminds me when you and your friends went and played for the last time and you didnt even know it.
Man...that hits hard...
This reminds me of my town so much, was once a small town with mills that slowly over time shutdown. Our mall is a shell of its once former self. Had an arcade I never got to play but only seen and it only barely exists in memories now. Wish I could go back when this town was more alive....this music takes me back to that time even if it's just false memories...
im in tears honestly this is amazing
In 1985 I was wearing neon fat shoe laces and breakdancin with my friends shortly after that I started skateboarding. I was 12. I still skateboard today... Loved my childhood like seeing thriller for the premiere, fireworks, colored bracelets, Friday the13th and the way the audience participated in the movie! So so many memories😢😃
This song makes this granny feel young again
I read a comment that this effort by The Midnight is reminiscent of Endless Summer and gives a feeling of optimism. I don't know why I'm on the total opposite end of the spectrum. The album has a higher tempo than Nocturnal and Days of Thunder but it all seems like tracks of lost potential. Especially with the line of "we grow up and move away, the seasons pass but the monsters stay". It's sad to hear that because it feels really true. Although you stop fearing the boogeyman and other make believe monsters as you grow older, too many people come face to face with real monsters such as drugs and alcohol or sexual pressures and they kick our asses. I just wish kids could someday get to actually live in a world they dreamed about. But every track is jamming, so hit play again.
Not to mention mental illness and more i agree with this
fucking nailed it
like it makes me think back on how bright and full of hope the world used to be when i was a kid before 9-11
everything seems like there was endless optimism and then you hit that point in life where your inner cynic starts to grow and you become numb to the hope and bright world you once knew
you stop see honesty and start see what they get out of it
food it self becomes a marketing campaige and no longer just that yummy thing you love to eat
and i get alot of that same vibe here too
hehe
ya know in a twisted way this is legit the most 80's thing i can think of talking about the lost innocence of youth in such a youthful way like this
truely fucking nailed it
All I can say is that I cried like a kid listening to this song. Everyone has their own opinion but for ME this is one of your best songs!! Simple but deep lyrics. Love from Brazil~~
Ayrton would have loved this....
I was laying in bed last night and was reminiscing on a person I used to know while listening to this song and I teared up a bit. It's so beautiful
@@briandecker8403
Ayrton would no doubt be in this comment section saying how this took him back to when he was racing for Lotus, and winning his first World Championship at McLaren...
This song is an generational antem, a poem dedicated to those magic times called the 80s, during these hard times 2021, this nostalgic feeling makes me feel encurage me to keep going, maybe with the hope that life could come back.
being from 93 i just barely got a glimpse of what 90s life was like. it feels like a dream now compared to today. One of my first memories was with my brother and family at a mall arcade. I do not like the future
The wait is finally over,another masterpiece from the midnight
I’m not sure why but this song has so much nostalgia to it (at least it does for me) it brings me back to when I was a kid watching the brown and orange leaves fall during autumn. No matter how many bad or sad memories I have I miss every single second of it.
The children choir certainly makes the magic. This song is just perfect in every sense.
3:11 you got to listen with head phones on and close your eyes pure bliss
❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯😢😢😢
Its beautiful. Hits you right in the feels.
I was a 90’s kid and watched as this 80’s arcade genre came to an ending. It’s breaks my heart honestly as they destroyed the mall I went to that had an arcade with all the 80’s classics games I enjoyed playing. Glad to come across this band to bring back some of the nostalgia from that time.
I normally listen to prog rock and prog metal, but this is really amazing!!! The 80s were great, but i won´t go back. I´m 61 now and i´m still searching for beautiful music. Glad i discovered this wonderful band.
This song makes me emotional because my dad used to play this every day almost and I would play video games and listen to the music with him in his little apartment until he moved out of there and doesn't listen to this kinda music any more so it just makes me cry a little aha
i'm gonna play this album to my future kids
I wish there was a time machine
I would go back to that day my dad took me to the arcade in 1984.
I would meet there the girl of my dreams
I love The Midnight
This KIDS album is an amazing ride!
Thematically, it feels like a perfect blend between Endless Summer and Nocturnal. Almost like a bridge between the two...
The lack of Saxophone is noticable, but in no way detracts from the experience.... the synth-focussed direction this album takes really gets across that Tim gets better and better at synthesis with every album. Experimental vibes compliment The Midnight's signature sound on this album like never before, with everything from your 'standard' Retro-Wave vibes to even some straight 4-to-the-floor stuff! Thoughtful, solid production, and most importantly, full of FEELS. 9/10 album for me, with a strong suspicion that it will grow to a 10/10 with multiple listening sessions. GREAT work guys!!
Its bitter sweet. As kids, we couldn't wait to grow up. Now that we are grown up, we wish we were kids.
I was feeling pretty good about this song until I read the lyrics and immediately thought of my one month old boy and the day he'll be all grown up and ready to leave home.
I broke down in tears at the thought. Damn you Midnight and your beautiful music - I haven't cried in decades...but then again, I've never been a dad until now!
This got me right in the feels. Between The Midnight and Gunship I can't explain this emotion of childhood emptiness and joy that i'm feeling at the same time when listening to these songs. It might be that question that keeps bringing me back to these songs over and over again.
This song makes me bawl my eyes out thinking of your dead past
Whats amazing about music, is that every note, sound, word, and chord is nothing more than a paint stroke. Music paints a beautiful image that all of us can see on our own individual canvas of the mind. That canvas is already colored with our own lives, past, experiences and memories. When these two mix, something insane is created. The Midnight's musical color palette is one that sounds amazing on the canvas of my own memories.
I've been waiting to hear the full version of this song for a month and the wait was worth it. It's beautiful, sad and captures the nostalgic essence of my childhood. I love it.
This Chorus is so fucking good! I shouted it out in my car on the way home from work today.. full blast ! Don’t care who’s looking, Live for what you love! The Midnight you’ve changed everything for me 💜 💙 🎆 🌌 😎 🌃
I'm a kid I'll admit but this song just hits in ways that cant be explained but more kids\teens
take your time being a kid. You're only a kid once. You have the rest of your life to be an adult.
I absolutely love this.
Thank you for blessing us with this all mighty Midnight
Makes me feel hopelessness, loss of innocence, the desire to restart my life and make it something better. But it's impossible. We move forward, because we can't go back.
Yes.
This song reminds me of how to be thankful that my parents had to deal and also to endure my behavior and mistakes. So sad how fast eight years have passed since I moved out.
Please remember to be a child again when you’re at your parents‘ house next time.
I was born in ‘99 and for some reason I get nostalgia from this
From someone who was there, It was as great as you imagine. Sorry you were born too late.
On repeat.
Best anthem for sad kids from the 80's missing out on what was.
So bummed I missed you guys in Vancouver.
Can we petition to get this on the next season of Stranger Things cuz it needs to be there.
I would legit be the happiest human alive since i ADORE Stranger things
Nah, this belongs in the series finale. They're doing at least one more, after all. Of course, if they did this, the resulting montage would probably destroy people.
@@otherhand you are quite right
@@otherhand UGH I would cry if they used this for the finale episide for the final season. It just absolutely fits.
start it!
It is funny and sad... I was born on '85 and now my kids are 9 and 5. This song makes me feel old and young at the same time. Listening to this tune while looking at pictures of our growing up process put tears in my eyes.
Is it bad that this song makes me teary eyed every time I play it?
Love it when the Tycho-like guitar hits with the Kraftwerk-ish rhythm underneath. Had a full album session yesterday and honestly, more than one tear rolled down my cheeks, maybe due to season melancholy, maybe cause the lyrics hit home on so many levels, maybe cause of the album's happy sadness vibe. As an 80's kid, The Midnight has been my biggest musical discovery since I first heard 'Wemoveforward' in '16 and I will always cherish their uplifting nostalgia feel while I get transported back to the years of my youth. Thank you Tim & Kyle!
Interesting, the guitar riff in this makes me think of something Mark Knopfler would've recorded on a track from 'Brothers In Arms'
I think we can all find that place in our past that represents this picture, whether it be an old shopping centre, café or holiday venue that we hold close to us. The audio acts a catalyst to take us back there.
I am in my 30's and this his me right there. Feels so relevant.
I see people saying this should be the theme song to the last episode of 'Stranger Things', but I'm going to throw my hat into the ring for the final episode of 'Regular Show'. Would've been poignant AF
What an incredible choir! They did an amazing job, and love The Midnight!
This makes me feel more nostalgic for the decade it came out; the 2010s
Can we please go back to that time? Before the lockdown and negativity? Best time of my life 😢
Whats awesome about synthwave is . They're using that sound to make it apply to current day. They've managed to hit a timeless lock on their sound. You can hear this at any point in time and the feeling will hit you. Idk man The Midnight and Gunship, bands in general like this. They've sliced through a sound barrier times had kept away. No other music cuts as deep to my trauma and my experiences and even today like the midnight and gunship can. I'm indebted to The Midnight forever. Maybe you know what you're doing or not but you've helped keep this broken person happy with Gloria. I genuinely smiled the other day. No other music has made me smile, just joy pure joy going on and to have your music only tells me im here. Im seen.
I was a kid in the 80s, from 5 to 13. This song really hits me hard now more than ever....
Times change but memories remain
Why this song always makes me cry so hard? man!
2018 has been a wonderful year for synthwave. New Carpenter Brut, new The Midnight, new Gunship. Absolutely wonderful.
Guys!! I just heard the music of heaven from 3:12 - 4:06
Heard this on a SoulSearchAndDestroy mix and couldn't get it out of my head!
Listening to this band is like reliving my childhood in the 80s
The album ended too soon :(
The lyrics- in and of themselves- are poignant and relevant enough for anybody listening past a certain age, even if they weren't alive in the 80's let alone old enough to remember it- but then comes the instrumental that breaks out into full bloom at 2:45 :
It has such a bittersweet feel to it, nostalgic yet wistful at the same time. The mood sits in this perfect little intersection between sadness and happiness. It's amazing how it manages to simultaneously capture a certain longing and desire for good old days that are never coming back (or at least, never coming back in quite the same way), yet also celebrating the drive to keep moving forward in pursuit of an even better future, no matter how long the journey may take or how trying it might feel at times.
It is like doing the best you possibly could, yet still falling short.
Or succeeding, but then realising how much further you still have to go beyond this point in the bigger scheme of things.
Then right when it has you in this hypnotic grip, suddenly it breaks away and drops into the most gorgeously Knopfleresque guitar riff, sounding like something straight from Dire Straits circa 'Brothers In Arms' to bring it home.
I was just about to go to sleep, but not until I listen to this album!
NolenNox im not either
Stranger Things Season 4 will be based on this song. Just wait
My medication makes me pretty numb to everything most of the time, but this made me cry openly. Best album yet from my favorite band.
What is your medication? Something self-administered? Stop abusing.
This is what we call a gem! Perfect song!
The feels it give me!!
seasons pass but the monsters stay
3:11 - 4:07 is the most pleasant thing i have ever heard
The kids are sad
The sky is blue
There are monsters in the spare bedroom
Kids grow up
And move away
They closed the plant
Then the mall arcade
The kids are sad
Their Parents too
Kids get high in the spare bedroom
We grow up
And move away
The seasons pass but the monsters stay
The band have the lyrics on their bandcamp page which is where I got this from x
They should have added this to the Stranger Things soundtrack.
Wow lovely..Thanks Dale
@@brucedepenha YEEAH totally STRANGER THINGS 💙 I Thought I was the one whom thought that xD
I know.. We are living in the upside-down world. The shadows are a nostalgic ghost of a place you know we are missing.
Concert last Sunday was just amazing
One of my favorite in the album is so overwhelming guys thank you for this song I love you all ❤️
As we grow up we leave a-lot of friends and things behind thats why we cherish the time we have and everything els because nothing last forever
This song made me all teary. :'(
that guitar at 3:12 oh man that hit me in a way
You should check out a band called The Paper Kites, if you like that kinda guitar and the 80's sound ;D
I suggest their songs Revelator Eyes and Electric Indigo.
That clean, David Gilmour-esque tone and note phrasing is just sublime
It cleansed my soul
It sounds so Knopfleresque
Very Emotional. (From Brazil)
Why do you make album covers so nostalgic ?
You will break my heart 🥲
To me its more than just nostalgia, but bringing back memories of what life was like when I was a kid growing up. I am fortunate to have been born in 82 and use to go to arcades, skating rinks, etc until I later I got into cars growing into adulthood.
This song reminds me of being young and just living without needing to worry about anything now im an adult worry about rent tax money food and generally living man I would go back in time if I could
When i was younger i had a dream of being in my brothers room. The room was haunted with spirits that flew around the room violently. This dream used to scare me, like many others, but as i grew up and the depression started sinking in i began to miss these things. Though i had bad dreams, sad dreams and memories, they are apart of my childhood, a place i desperarely wish to return too. Now i wear these sad memories like a second skin because i love them even though they hurt me. I dont know why i feel this, so bitter towards the future. I think maybe it is because childhood was a shelter for me.
This could've been a perfect Stranger Things S03E08 ending theme song.
I know I had to make sure it wasn't written ABOUT that ending.
DUDE, I guess everyone would cry its guts out
That would have been pretty cool
I agree, it was like it was written for it. Peter Gabriel was pretty special though.
No x2
Whenever I listen to "The Midnight" 's song I feel like going back to 80's Synth music :)
this makes me happy.
Once again we are touched by another album from The Midnight. Truly Awesome!
To all the naysayers saying that this album does not compare to there other albums or not good enough I say that every other songs the midnight made have some story and aim at certain time in our life and clearly this album is in the typical teen category when he/she discovers certain thing on their life or one could say explore the dreamlike 80's and also the fact we should be happy there is a genre we get to pick the vibes or feel we get one small point that this track does not have that much storytelling to its songs its just sort of put you in a place to discover your own.
I just think the entirety needs multiple listens. Enabling a grasp on what didn't seem as beautiful at first
@@Houlgravely Well I know that this song does not have a good chorus but its not about that its about the feel and beats but its your opinion ,whatever rocks your boat.
Waited for months to hear this. Buying the album, this was more amazing than I could of imagined. Oh man.
If only we could turn back the hands of time. The Midnight does it through their music. New nostalgia, it's amazing
3:16 is pure bliss
Ya'll! It's morning and I open my tab to expect A song from the Midnight like they said they would but what I see!? 4* new songs in row!! IT'S A GOOD FRIDAY FOR ME!
03:12 IS AMAZING!!!!!
