I always listened to this in 2013-2015 got me through a lot of days 🦋brings back so much memories time is going too fast ..Thank you for your beautiful music best coast!💗
I remember my cousin playing this song in the car when I was a teenager. At first I was confused because all I listened to was hip hop up until that point. Growing up in the hood, it wasn’t “cool” to listen to this type of music. And my cousin was a hipster so he didn’t give a fuck about what people thought lol. Anyway, when he was playing this song at first I was laughing at him (me being a immature teenager), but something clicked in my brain, I felt something in my soul from hearing this song. He had all the windows down, it was a summer night in the city, and he was blasting this song without a care in the world, singing it word for word. All eyes were on us, and he just didn’t care. It was that level of confidence right there that would go on to change not only my music taste, but my life. It taught me a valuable lesson in life, that lesson is to not give a fuck about what people think about you. To just be yourself! Be different! He doesn’t even know this story, and we barely talk now, but man I wish he knew! This song will forever be legendary to me!
This song makes me feel delightfully empty. Like walking alone down a street next to a beach watching the heat twist and melt inches off the hot concrete in front of me.
I love coming back here over the years to look at all the comments of all the people who have been positively affected by this song. When this song was released I was on my way out of high school and now I'm sending my daughter into school. Time flies but music like this bring you back to moments that are long gone
@starrycat1 thank you so much. I'm back again, enjoying the beauty of this song. We're doing great, she's a 2nd grader now and may love this song as much as I do ❤
@@JC-wg5xn I know I'm REALLY late and you both probably forgot about this song I do apologize but just wanted to let you know there is a version on spotify that's better IMO, "Sun was high (so was I) by Small Black". Just putting this here so people in the future can know too : )
I listened to this song in 2010 while on holidays on the beach in Gold Coast, Australia, in 39C heat while the stand storm was hitting my calves and this song felt exactly like this. A LoFi sand haze carried on the hot wind, on a sun drenched pale beach, turquoise ocean, bending palm trees while cars driving nearby melting asphalt pavement. I will love and cherish this track forever. Thank you Best Coast.
there's a Christmas song that's been playing at work that reminded me of this song ... I've been racking my brain all day to remember the title!! so glad I stumbled across this gem again. great music.
I went for a walk watched the cars go by the sun was high I thought of you I went for a walk the wind was blowin' it sure was hot I thought of you I went for a walk watched the cars go by the sun was high and so was I I thought of you
I know exactly how you feel, I play in a band that practises in a warehouse right near the exact scene you're describing. This song also reminds me of the day I left hawaii, and I was on the freeway suspended above the houses. I could see people's yards and fences and that was the last thing I really saw in Hawaii before flying back to Sydney.
i’ll never forget this “shitgaze” era. psychedelic horseshit, early wavves and best coast. even vivian girls although it was different. i miss that shit. it was so good.
riding in a car on a highway + roll the windows up + roll the weed up + smoke that weed + blast this song + roll the windows down then letting the wind hit your face = perfection.
hearing this song filled me with the most uncomfortable sensation of emptiness in the most beautiful way possible
same here, kinda like a lonely catharsis

Tell your cousin, life is short. Bless u
Knowing ngaf lifestyle bleeds into a family member’s life is like a peak moment.
Great story! This song is so simple, but it does have some kind of magical, hypnotical quality to it for sure!
come on man, you gotta tell him!! it's what this song is all about anyways!
Maturing is listening to music that isn’t just trap music
I almost wanna cry when this fades out....
Nearly a decade later and I’m still loving this track
Same
Since I was 15 in high school. 23 now..
Circa 2011 for me, amen brother
This was one of two tracks she had out when I was a 14 year old freshman in high school … 27 now 😭
I fell in love with someone and this was our song for a long time
this makes me feel happy yet empty at the same time
Nostalgia
That's what you're feeling

In California 🤍

Why oh why is this not on Spotify
If I had to guess, it's the album title.

This is exactly why i’m here. I love this song so much and it’s not on spotify :((
@@rustarus6117 hell no, it’s not better 😂
This song reminds me of getting high and sailing to Catalina Island, back in 2009. One of my many adventures.

Forever the summer vibe. All I need is the sun, a breeze, and a bowl
this reminds me of when summers were fun and i felt things more strongly than i do today
This song is a blessing in my life, coming back to this after 11 years
Best Coast because it makes me feel like I'm at the beach in the dead of winter. Paradise! :)
While I do love every release by them there will never be an EP like this again. This is really 10/10.
same.
too nostalgic
I play this whenever it's sunset in the summer
riding in a car on a highway + sticking your head out of the sun roof and letting the wind hit your face + blasting this song = PERFECTION
This song will live on forever
I forgot about this song. Life is good, I love Best Coast.
It's my first time to hear this song but why am I feeling so nostalgic? hahaha
listening to this is a slice of heaven....no it's the whole thing
there's a Christmas song that's been playing at work that reminded me of this song ... I've been racking my brain all day to remember the title!! so glad I stumbled across this gem again. great music.
When you play this, you have to listen to it more than once. Best Coast are brilliant!!
ice cold, filtered water in the bong on a perfect morning :')
Favourite Best Coast song right here.
I went for a walk
watched the cars go by
the sun was high
I thought of you
I went for a walk
the wind was blowin'
it sure was hot
I thought of you
I went for a walk
watched the cars go by
the sun was high
and so was I
I thought of you
❤️
Perfection
i think ive just about fallin in love with this band...
Ohhhh the good ol days of being young and no worries.........the damn feeeels are too much on this song.
Brings me back to when I first got Sirius radio

always a special song
back when best coast made good music
Best Coast’s Album ‘Crazy For You’ is probably her best album.
Still listen to it often.
one of their top masterpieces
Best Coast blows my mind!
and still thinking
warm summer and green eyes :')
best coast + weed = me happy.. Lol (:
This reminds me of my summers in San Diego California in the years of 2010-11
the small black version is pretty great too! :)
The sun was high....❤️
Who’s still here in 2024?
I Like flowers they make me tickle inside....
siempre que estoy volao me acuerdo de varias canciones y esta siempre la repito varias veces
want this on Spotify ❤
I know what you mean, but I don't mind it being all "crystalline", I think her voice is lovely and I like hearing it more often :-)
Nostalgia in song form
thuper excited to see them next week. h8 on it.
summer here you go
Had to make a video of my own to this song, it's classic
watch tha cars go by ..
this is genius
i like the 0 dislikes, keep it that way
Best BC song and it’s still not in Spotify smh
Nostalgia de la buena
i’ll never forget this “shitgaze” era. psychedelic horseshit, early wavves and best coast. even vivian girls although it was different. i miss that shit. it was so good.
What a time to have been listening to all that junk. Still banging out tracks from back then to this day.
❤
Crying its not on spotifyc
Ice ice baby
Why is this not on Spotify?
woww
when this first came on.
I thought of "We Are Trees - Teenage Heartbreak"
small black versions does a cover, worth listening to
@DCUnderdog3000
Indeed. The distorted vocals def give it an edge
songs to relapse to
In the middle of nowhere thinking about you Baylee
Whyyy did they remove this from spotify
bruh who still jam this track in 2022
This song hurts
узнал об этой песне из пупа! =DD
riding in a car on a highway + roll the windows up + roll the weed up + smoke that weed + blast this song + roll the windows down then letting the wind hit your face = perfection.
If this was clearer it would be like finding freedom
After all these years I ofnd out this is a cover
Teenage angst at Its finest
3 people got too high and missed the like button
was this their first album? cause i think they sound the best in this one.
she is wavves as a girl
she is way better than wavves
No! Live your life unafraid!
Does anyone know the original?
the weeknd brought me here :)
@monkeysnail sickkkkk gonz is the shit did he have any actual clips in the video?
So sick! If you like Best Coast, check out
Ted Duchamp - Coke Float!
Think you will enjoy it! Take care!:)
