Of Monsters and Men - Yellow Light

- I'm looking for a place to start
But everything feels so different now.
Just grab a hold of my hand,
I will lead you through this wonderland.
Water up to my knees
But sharks are swimming in the sea.
Just follow my yellow light
And ignore all those big warning signs.
Somewhere deep in the dark
A howling beast hears us talk.
I dare you to close your eyes
And see all the colors in disguise.
Running into the night,
The earth is shaking and I see a light.
The light is blinding my eyes
As the soft walls eat us alive.
I like to listen to this song at night when my thoughts are keeping me awake. I like how it sounds like an eerie lullaby and sort of haunts you in a familiar way, but then towards the end of the song all the voices join together in a march, and it just makes me feel a little less alone, like there are other people on the planet who are going through the same things I am.
Jennifer Morrow five years in the future but that’s a wonderful way of putting it.
I love this song so much I literally play it every time when I go to bed coz it's like a lullaby for me :)
This is literally one of the best songs I've ever heard...
DMAC Listen to their other songs, all of them are masterpieces
I've been going through some very confusing matters of the heart lately, and this whole album has been speaking to me in so many ways. As I drove home tonight, I found myself feeling a little somber. The last three minutes of this song took me to a completely different place, though: I saw me, and her, and all three little ones. And I saw lots of laughter. Even if that never comes to be, it was beautiful to look at, and it made me feel a little better :)
I find the end part absolutely terrifying. love how it effects everyone in a different way.
I could listen to the last 2 minutes of this song forever
I just love how the tune gets more and more intense the longer it plays and its still relaxing while exciting. This band is too perfect i really feel like i will never like any other band as much as these guys
I'm falling in love with his voice :)
***** Her voice is amazing :3
If I had a country, these would be our National Anthem .
lol I'd come to your country and seek refuge there... pls let me join your country lol :)
Clouse Jones Sure there is space for OMAM fans. Would make You the Minister of Music.
TexasTroll Woohoo thx :P
TexasTroll That would be bit long at baseball games XD
this is not the anthem you would want... i know it sounds a bit arrogant to tell you what you want and don't want but how can you read/hear these lyrics and think that this is a good idea for a national anthem...?
i think this would be a perfect song for a human rights video or a re-make of orwells novel 1984....
So dreamlike.
It is the songs with a craftsmanship of music and lyrics such at these that puts joy in the hearts of a man like me.
I don't see the appeal of Gagaga ola la la, or baby baby baby was considered good song writing.
Old comment
With this video I met Of monster an men I felt in love with this song! Since then omam is my favorite band ever!
I love the part with the xylophone/glockenspiel or whatever the instrument was. It made it sound delicate and child-like, if that makes any sense. ^^
This song is beyond words, just take it in..
what an amazing group, three songs so far and I am so very joyful!
My stress just went away.
so happy to see some real music out this year! Real voices, real instruments!
Now this is art...
I love how there's just plain music for a few minutes. It helps you develop a true love for instruments and music
I listen to this song once and then I can't stop.
It's the kind of tune you used to sing when you were a kid. Nostalgia has taken hold of you.
My life is rubbish but this song made me smile... Such an amazing band, song, album!
I completely agree. As soon as a song goes mainstream it feels lost and completely worthless, thats why i always listen to the bands like this and one of my absolute favorites He is We.
I like this, its musical poetry..reminds me of a picture book a dreamy child might read-like "where the wild things are."
I have such a history when it comes to these guys. I have been a fan right from the beginning, and theyre practically all i listen to. I have deep connections with some of these songs and memories from awhile ago. I am on of (If not THE) biggest fan of Of Monsters And Men, and will always be. Thumbs up if you feel the same way :)
why doesn't this song have a video? I know it's long but still I love it!!
that's a good point but still it's a good enough song
cat berg Watch my video :) vimeo.com/89423297
Maybe because its 2 mins of lyrics and 3 mins of guitar and "la la la's"
they could show people walking. . .maybe?? It has potential
You're right it does have potential lol
You are exactly right. I did this by accident and woke up later to this song and it made me feel all silly and happy. Fell back to sleep to a better world. The album and this song particularly are absolutely terrific.
ainda escutando em 2016... desde 2012
I actually just discovered this band a few minutes ago when Little Talks music video was on when flipping through channels. It caught my eyes and ears. Now I'm down right in love with this band.
Does anyone else hear that the whole chant at the end is "my head is an animal" To me which means that that we are different in our mind than what we are perceived.
this band's music makes me sad and happy at the same time, must be the moment I'm passing through but still, just knew them two days ago and loving them!
Simply magical
They never disappoint me this band. I even click 'like' b4 I hear the song cos I know its gonna be awesome.
Less than 1% dislikes on total likes
That's a great result! People really love this band, and me too!
one of the best bands ever!
yes what's not to love!! :)
This band had such a unique and peaceful sound. I love all of their songs. They have always been my favorite band and always will be. Sometimes I think I have found my new favorite band but then I go and listen to of monsters and men and I know they are my favorite band of all time.
my absolute favourite.
The music builds into this beautiful atmosphere. It's one of the most gorgeous pieces of music I've ever heard.
This is a very good song!
And a bit depressing... But in the good way! :D
I could listen to these lalala lala lala for days !
Simply perfect :)
Icelandic artists are really coming around...the quality and depth of music in this hipster dementia is really refreshing...so happy.
This is what made my crush fall in love with me.
same.
My ears were caught by the 3 mn music when I was in a store today. I asked the person what was this nice sound. And I arrived here this evening and have downloaded the song on my Ipod. Power of music...
Anyone else feel like this song is a continuation of the story in "Little Talks"?
their music is so calming and their lyrics are just......AMAZING
Ive loved this band for the longest now. I'm glad they are finally getting noticed
I've never met a single person who has listened to these guys and not gotten hooked, they're just amazing.
Im 38 and a Dad of 4 and trust me , Mumford and Sons, Bon Ivor , Of Monsters And Men, Im the best chilled out Dad EVER my kids love my music taste!!!!!!!
Age got no boundary!!!!!!!!
I love this song live watching Nanna hit that drum is just awesome
I love the voice of this band, from the words to the music to the voices of the performers and their instruments, they are unique and fun to follow.
I was swinging on a swing and had this song on and for Five minutes everything in my world was perfect and there was nothing to hide from, cry from, worry about... It was the most Beautiful moment I've ever witnessed.
Cannot stop listening to this song!
I never used to like this song that much but after getting past the semi-slow intro the song starts picking up and turns into a great song. This was my soundtrack of summer.
beautifully composed and astoundingly written, this song is blazing yet so tender, scorching but yet so chilly, felicity but yet so melancholic!!
real music. music you can feel. thank you, Of Monsters and Men.
This song has the power to make me feel good when I'm sad! Every time I listen at of monsters and men is a magic moment.
sweet. love their voices. love the music. so glad i found them.
I love music like this, It sounds so lovey and peaceful. Just seems to put my mind at ease when I'm listening to it.
I love this song, the way she says Earth is so beautiful.
I absolutely love this song, it makes me remember all the good things in my life.
i think i listened to this song 400 000 times
It's pure sensation... It's to put into words, but I a sense of happiness, union... I love it!
This song makes you feel all the things that cannot be described in words...
When I find a song I like on RUclips from a new singer, someone I've never heard of, or one of my favorite bands, I generally just think, "Wow! This is great!" and that's it, but coming here, one look at the cover photo and it doesn't give me that feeling that the music business is as big and messy as it really is. The band members just look so at peace and happy with everything as it is. Their music also makes you feel so calm, but not in a sad way... I thought it was cute.
literally repeated this song about 50 times when i was writing my forever long paper, their voices are so relaxing....
This is the most beautiful song I have heard in a long time. It gives me hope that the real heart and soul of music isn't being lost in our generation. Thank you - Of Monsters and Men - for continuing to make real music, music which is so beautiful and should be heard everywhere ♥
i'm 42 and a mum of two daughters...and i so love Of Monster and Men...Mumford & Sons...Avett Brothers...Margot & the Nuclear So & So's....just to name a few :-)
I used to listen to this years ago and I only just now rediscovered it. It's so melancholy yet so hopeful... makes me nostalgic for a lost innocence...
This is the true definition of art.
the song is beautiful, their voices so beautiful, the music / instruments beautiful and they are all beautiful.. everything beautiful!! aaaahhhhh!!
This song is incredible. It's so simple, but amazingly beautiful. It manages to take you away for a few minutes and send a whole surge of different feelings and emotions through you, it's strangely powerful.
She has a truly Amazing voice, I could listen to them all day :)
They closed the show with this song...yellow lights blazing and "snow" falling from above. It was magical!
Love this song so much. They're so perfect.
Thanks to you, I can't listen to this without the rain. It just seems incomplete on it's own.
Oh my God, they don't have a bad song. Incredible. Iceland really does have the best music!
This is my first listening of this band. I really like it. It gives hints of The XX which I can't deny. That, of course, isn't a bad thing. Even so, their sound is very peculiar, all I know is I like it and I will continue my listening of this band.
Agreed! I am only young, I love this stuff! And always will!!!
Is incredible how much I'm fascinated by this song.
My lecturer today saw me with my headphones in and asked me what I was listening to, I said 'Of Monsters and Men', he unfortunately didn't know who they were so I said 'it's new music' and he went 'Oh.. new music for young people?' he's about 40.. bless him but he should know this band because it goes across ages not just young people :)
I love them so much, they inspire me and their music calms me and makes me so happy! I missed their Detroit show and hope they come back someday.
I'm writing my english coursework - totally uninspired, braindead. I stop. Turn this on. Start to write, enjoying the fluidity of this enchanting piece, like I'm transported a different place. It finishes. I stop writing - then replay it again after again... I Love It!
I went to Iceland this summer and I still regret that I didn't buy their album in Reykjavik..
Just love, love, love Of Monsters and Men.. :)
OMAM is honestly the one thing in life that ups my mood regardless of how I'm feeling. These guys are truly amazing, and I'm sure everyone else could agree; THIS is real music.
Amen to that, absolutely ace live! And they were so happy to be playing
Of Monsters and Men and The XX- greatest artists of the moment....
I can't tell you how much this song spoke to me. Out of this world connection: My 4 year old has cancer, he calls the cancer "sharks" and I call him my "Yellow Boy." Sooo... This song made me gasp for breath. Thank you. Incredible. I need to own this.
I can't stop singing this !
their voices compliment each other so well
Wait . . . music with real instruments, real voices, good lyrics, AND a theme? Impossible!
I can't get over how much I adore their voices!
I love the piano bits in this song. It's chilling.
Mr Matak is right. This is about the begining of love. Frightening in a way but if you go with the flow it can be the best thing ever.
beautiful song and so much magic piano.....
So refreshing to hear beautiful music xxxxxxxx
When looking for a moment of peace you can always count on Of Monsters and Men.
honestly i wouldn't care if just the music was played at my funeral, its SO beautiful!
this song is awesome! love this group!
i saw them yesterday!!! they closed their set with this song in the pouring rain, it was magical
AMAZING.....there aren't other words to the describe this melody...
I
