@@SpaceIsThePlace_ indie music is still alive... just lot more underground than it used to. The Strokes' new album got lot of attention, Car Seat Headrest is my fav modern indie band (check em out), and tiktok girls finally discovered Arctic Monkeys lol
@@zackzallie8735 There's still a lot of great indie music but I'm starting to get tired of the whole "lofi, beachy, reverby, chill wave" bullcrap. There's too much of it and the majority of it sounds the same. I miss this era of indie music because In my lifetime, I think indie was at its best when it was starting to mix elements of techno and electronica into its sound
@@SpaceIsThePlace_ There's plenty of indie stuff from 2010 to date. Tame Impala, Foals, black midi, Fontaines DC, Arlo Parks, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, Wild Nothing, Beach Fossils and Black Country, New Road just to name a few examples.
This song really resonates with me. My wife was in the Hospital dying when I got the call at 4am from a Nurse that her breathing was shallow. I got to the Hospital just in time to Kiss her and say Goodbye. Your never ready for the Voice on the other end..
Sorry for your loss. You will see her again on the other side. In the meanwhile, the important thing to remember is that she would want you to be happy and live your best life, if she were here today.
My gf lost her bf when she was 17 in a motorcycle accident. We're both around 50 now. I never met him, but every time this song comes on, we dedicate it to him.
Woke up at 3 am, to a nurse telling me my dad had just passed. Half asleep I just couldn't put 2 and 2 together, took me a good minute to realize he was gone at 89. He was larger than life when I was a boy, as I aged I saw all the imperfections starting to show but I loved him more for it. Despite having the spirit of a fighter he was reduced to a fraction of his hulking past self by the time he passed. Life does go on, but as I grow older myself nothing is truer than The Son becomes the Father. And the Father becomes the Son.
This song goes to my aunt Joan, who had a very tough life and struggled heavily with BPD until the age of 63 and unfortunately lost her battle to suicide last week. I still have some of the things you gave to me last time I was able to visit (including the light up packers sweater!) you from across the country before you passed away. Rest in peace, Aunt Joan. This song is for you. You were amazing ❤
Found out my dad passed away this morning. Nothing was wrong, he just didn't wake up. I took him to see LCD Soundsystem in 2010, it was the first time I saw him let loose and dance (to Drunk Girls I think). We shared tons of music, Sunday morning runs, afternoons reading Calvin and Hobbes together, and that won't happen again. It's gorgeous outside today, the coffee tastes the same. It's fucked to thing that despite what happened today, things will indeed just keep coming until the day it stops.
This song always makes me think about the day I woke up one day and got the message one of my best friends had died of leukemia... The lyrics just fits perfect... I always loved this song, but about 2 years ago, the meaning changed entirelh... Hope you're doing well wherever you are right now mate...
I’m sorry for your loss, earlier this month someone who I considered an uncle passed from cancer, and it hurt cause he didn’t want us to see him in his current state
@@HorchataImpact I'm so sorry for your loss. My friend also just closed himself of whenever he wasn't doing too good. He wanted us to remember him like he was before he got sick. When the doctors told him he only had a coupke of weeks left, he never told us about it, so he could live his life....
This is one of my favorite songs that encapsulates the weird feelings of grief perfectly in a bitter, nostalgic way. Lost my mom to suicide in the Spring. The feeling of time passing sitting in a dark room through the summer, eventually going back to work and the feeling of the futility of routine in the face of grief.
It's now 8 years since I wrote this original comment. Looking back now I do see how this song and video holds up as a testament to that time and place. The styles, the type of parties, the apartment, the reflective and emotional tone of the song. I can't speak for everyone else who was there but I know for myself I moved to this new and fascinating place not knowing anyone and with an ambition. We were out there young, alone and in pursuit of something in this urban jungle with millions of others. We depended on each other for help in the careers we were pursuing and to create new social circles. I can only speak for myself but I'm sure many us found "someone great."
I read on "song meanings" online that presumably this song was written in regard to the singer's therapist, who used to have group therapy sessions in his basement; the singer had thought highly of him, and one day he had passed away...
From the lyrics alone, I felt that the song was about losing his wife in childbirth. That tragic and beautiful interpretation is what I want to keep in my mind. "You're smaller than my wife imagined."
Ujjwal Das Gupta It wouldn't make sense for it to be about losing his wife in childbirth. When you say you think he was speaking to the baby when he says "you're smaller than my wife imagined," that would require for the "you" in the entire rest of the song to be directed at the baby, but it it's clearly directed at an adult (whom according to you is probably the wife). The speaker doesn't change who "you" is throughout the lyrics. Anyway, in general your interpretation sounds to me more like the sort of drama that women like to create angsty stories about (if any story is ever about women, then it's about their bodies in some way, pregnancy, babies, rape, victimization, childbirth, or something like that). As a woman I'm just so disappointed that women always seem to have these sorts of fantasies that only serve to cement all the stereotypes about women in society: a woman is supposedly always important first and foremost for her body, and specifically her role as a sex object or baby factory. You don't get to put yourself in that role and then cry about the way society perceives us as a gender.
Yeah, my interpretation does require two different contexts for the word "you", but that's how I naturally heard the song :) I guess that is the thing about good art, it can mean different things to different people.
Ujjwal Das Gupta even though it's a very different song musically, you may want to listen to Baby Birch by Joanna Newsom for more of the theme you described.
I love the repetition in the song, the way "And it keeps coming" and "When someone great is gone" reflects our thoughts at the time of a loss is really well done. 'When someone great is gone' makes me think of my uncle who passed away years ago. To this day I find myself thinking, "how can someone so great be gone?" and this songwriter captured these feelings perfectly.
Exactly a year ago today my Best Friends took his life. This is the first time I have ever heard this song and I stumbled upon it by accident. It's quite beautiful.
fucking hell. saw them last night at all points east, they’d announced they lost a close friend the day before and played this while all in tears. Really really powerful moment showing the strength of friendship getting each other through that. Blown away!
I remember my dad always diving me to where he worked everyday in the very early morning before I went to school. This song I heard a lot when I was with him in his truck. This song perfectly captures that feeling of the very early morning.
Discovered this song during a really dark time in my life and shortly after I lost a very close family member, as soon as I hear those chords it just breaks my heart, it takes a lot for me to cry but this will do it.
This video is incredible. I don't know why but I love the scene where the fan starts with the music. I think that this video is suppose to show that life goes on when someone close dies, but it shows that they are never forgotten during the party near the end when everyone is nostalgic looking.
This Video is fantastic. The black Silhouette is the 'when someone great is gone' he is referring to in the song. Its about the void that person leaves when you break up with them or perhaps when someone dies.They still resonate in your daily life after for a long time. This video is simple and clever like the song and therefore perfectly matched.
I think of my friends I left behind when I had to move across the country to college. It's not a total loss because they're still around, but there's something bugging me every time I think of it. Then I hear this song and the feelings come hitting me like running into a brick wall. There was a connection that wasn't totally lost, but definitely lost in a sense. Moving on is never easy, and to this day it pains me
what I love about this song is that we all have 'someone' we think about when we hear it. I just listened to it with friends and we all grew quiet, it was super interesting. Some of us were thinking about exes, some about dead family...
This song popped into my head as I was driving home. My bro was found dead overseas, and the only time I can really feel is when I’m driving. “Someone great is gone.”
This song is so many emotions. Excitement because it came out at an exciting time in my life and I danced to it at parties and listened to it together with my fun friends, laughing and talking. Yearning. Because I yearn for the feelings I felt then. Joy, because it’s damn catchy and moves fast, the beat driving itself straight into my cranium. And hope. I feel hope when I hear it. A better day awaiting, somehow someway, when we will all dance again and laugh and pass a joint without any cares on a rooftop somewhere with a warm breeze blowing.
Damn, you nailed it.... Nostalgia for the great times past, mourning for the losses that touch ones life, excitement for the future - all while not being able to stop dancing.
Wow man this song just got to the core of me!!! I'm hearing it for the first time and I'm so hurt over this woman I loved and lost just recently. This really moved me as well as everyone else's comments and stories.
thumbs up for anyone, any commercial, or any tv show that brought anyone here. the people of this world should all be given the chance to listen to beautiful music ^^
We all have "someone great" sometimes many "someones", and the world keeps turning, but our world stops. We also need to stop. Then take some bottles of water and healthy snacks, go to bed, and stay there until we feel like getting up. That day will come. It is healthy and healing to ride out the storm which rages in our souls, in the brokenness of our hearts, and in the chaos of our thoughts and feelings. Peace will arrive one day. I am living proof of it.
I'm currently interning for a psychological clinic. And we recently had a deep dive into the clinic's consent forms. There was a provision there regarding client's records should the original therapist/psychologist became incapacitated in any form... This song immediately came into mind. While the clinic document was very blunt about it, this song made it (death) more real, and scary in a way. I hope that relationships/alliances, even those prematurely terminated, does not bring down but instead open up both parties to healing, growth, and transcendence.
My kitten died suddenly while playing last night. Just a little cat, but a bright spot in dark times. This song got stuck in my head pretty quickly. It did in 2019 when a (human) friend died, also very suddenly, also way too young. Reading the comments, I'm not alone in using this to process. RIP everybody's loved ones. Take care of yourselves.
I woke up to a call that my friend who I'd known since we were 5 and had just seen a few days prior committed suicide at 26. I always loved this song but didnt "get" it until that happened. Rest in peace Tino, you will never be forgotten.
I've so many great people in my life and this song is always in my head. Now i wish i could have spent more time with them and someone I've never I've never met. Thank you Eric for touching the life of the girls i hold so deep to me, i hope you know how great you truly touched their lives ❤️
I remember being in a coffee shop with my partner at that time (the only I’ve had until today), then this song came and I thought that would be the song I’d listen to if we ever break up, cause I think he’s great. So, here I am, 5 years later, writing this comment and listening to this in the AM. Kinda miss him sometimes…
[Verse 1] I wish that we could talk about it But there, that's the problem With someone new I could have started Too late for beginnings The little things that made me nervous Are gone in a moment I miss the way we used to argue Locked, in your basement [Verse 2] I wake up and the phone is ringing Surprised, as it's early And that should be a perfect warning That something's a problem To tell the truth I saw it coming The way you were breathing But nothing can prepare you for it The voice on the other end [Verse 3] The worst is all the lovely weather I'm stunned it's not raining The coffee isn't even bitter Because what's the difference? There's all the work that needs to be done It's late for revision There's all the time and all the planning And songs to be finished And it keeps coming And it keeps coming And it keeps coming 'Til the day it stops And it keeps coming And it keeps coming And it keeps coming 'Til the day it stops And it keeps coming And it keeps coming And it keeps coming And it keeps coming And it keeps coming And it keeps coming And it keeps coming 'Til the day it stops [Verse 4] I wish that we could talk about it But there, that's the problem With someone new I could have started Too late for beginnings You're smaller than my wife imagined Surprised you were human There shouldn't be this ring of silence But what are the options? When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone We're safe, for the moment Saved For the moment
This song makes me think about my very beloved grandfather when he passed away. I have a feeling a lot of people have someone this song could be about.
The love of my life suddenly moved when I was 14 we were inseparable me and Hailee she just vanished one day, I finally found her 28 years later, I have spent 28 years searching for her now I'm 42 and my heart has been destroyed my girl had a rough time mistreated by assholes and multiple stints in prison, I'm crushed someone great did go.
I showed this song to her right before the end of our relationship. I didn't realize why she didn't like it until just coming back to it. This was us and she hated it
I wish that we could talk about it But there, that's the problem With someone new I couldn't start it Too late, for beginnings The little things that made me nervous Are gone, in a moment I miss the way we used to argue Locked, in your basement I wake up and the phone is ringing Surprised, as it's early And that should be the perfect warning That something's a problem To tell the truth I saw it coming The way you were breathing But nothing can prepare you for it The voice on the other end The worst is all the lovely weather I'm stunned, it's not raining The coffee isn't even bitter Because, what's the difference? There's all the work that needs to be done It's late, for revision There's all the time and all the planning And songs, to be finished And it keeps coming And it keeps coming And it keeps coming Till the day it stops And it keeps coming And it keeps coming And it keeps coming Till the day it stops And it keeps coming And it keeps coming And it keeps coming And it keeps coming And it keeps coming And it keeps coming And it keeps coming Till the day it stops I wish that we could talk about it But there, that's the problem With someone new I could have started Too late for beginnings You're smaller than my wife imagined Surprised, you were human There shouldn't be this ring of silence But what are the options? When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone When someone great is gone We're safe, for the moment Saved for the moment

such a great song to play too, hope he rests in peace

A good day to you all!

I just lost my brother this week after he passed unexpectedly. Hardest time of my life. This song has been helping to know I’m not alone
❤

One of the best songs of the 00s. Incredible piece of songwriting, especially when you learn what it's about.
What is it about?
@@tskitishvili3 it's about James Murphy (the writer and singer) therapist. He died.
It’s about bargaining and never reaching consensus or peace. It’s the human condition, it’s adulthood, it’s frustrating as hell.
umm ok? that's not a lot of info and did it even affect anyone? not dissing it, but they provided no insightfulness or explanation. @@dukiroki6891
Woke up at 3 am, to a nurse telling me my dad had just passed. Half asleep I just couldn't put 2 and 2 together, took me a good minute to realize he was gone at 89. He was larger than life when I was a boy, as I aged I saw all the imperfections starting to show but I loved him more for it. Despite having the spirit of a fighter he was reduced to a fraction of his hulking past self by the time he passed. Life does go on, but as I grow older myself nothing is truer than The Son becomes the Father. And the Father becomes the Son.
One of my most favourite songs. To me, it's so beautiful I could cry
Please don't
Cried yesterday at their show. Thinking of my ex. She was my best friend and I ruined it. But that’s life.
Not when you have real problems
ur like... the joker UwU
This song goes to my aunt Joan, who had a very tough life and struggled heavily with BPD until the age of 63 and unfortunately lost her battle to suicide last week. I still have some of the things you gave to me last time I was able to visit (including the light up packers sweater!) you from across the country before you passed away. Rest in peace, Aunt Joan.

My kitten died suddenly while playing last night. Just a little cat, but a bright spot in dark times. This song got stuck in my head pretty quickly. It did in 2019 when a (human) friend died, also very suddenly, also way too young. Reading the comments, I'm not alone in using this to process. RIP everybody's loved ones. Take care of yourselves.
All the love I the world to you
Sorry for you. My 11 had leukemia. 2021.
This song NOW reminds of someone very dear to me, more than ever.
i love The LCD Soundsystem. awesome band
i have been asking myself is this the greatest song ever and i think it could be it works on so many levels
I woke up to a call that my friend who I'd known since we were 5 and had just seen a few days prior committed suicide at 26. I always loved this song but didnt "get" it until that happened. Rest in peace Tino, you will never be forgotten.
GG techno, glhf with your upcoming matches in heaven
Saw them tonight at The Fair Park in Salt Lake City, they have a killer sound 🤙🏼
...and it keeps coming
can't imagine how many times for numerous reasons i have played this song. THANK YOU.
I don't even miss someone anymore. All is empty.
I've so many great people in my life and this song is always in my head.
Now i wish i could have spent more time with them and someone I've never I've never met. Thank you Eric for touching the life of the girls i hold so deep to me, i hope you know how great you truly touched their lives ❤️
The lyrics: really sad
The beat and rhythm: a bop
Yea, that is exactly the album I got my version from. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
Caught this on paper girls, never heard it before. Cool tune
Same here also Paper Girls has great soundtrack and music.
im here because of paper girls
i love this song, the lyrics are so sad and yet it gets under your skin, i really really love it
LCD Soundsystem, I love you but you're bringing me down ...
..absolutely epic choon to play on the dancefloor - you'd be suprised how everyone is upbeat even though it's a low-key chooon. Beauty !!
It rains 🌧 in here every time I hear this
Oh man I’ve listened to this song so many times on the radio. Love the cinematography by the way!
I remember being in a coffee shop with my partner at that time (the only I’ve had until today), then this song came and I thought that would be the song I’d listen to if we ever break up, cause I think he’s great. So, here I am, 5 years later, writing this comment and listening to this in the AM. Kinda miss him sometimes…
I’m in the same boat as you now. Also lost a close relative this week. It’s bittersweet listening to this now.
@@SanPietroRagazzo i'm sorry to hear that. everything will be fine soon
best music video I've ever seen, hands down. I love it for so many reasons, and the song is very relateable
Technoblade never dies 🧡
This song is like a flavor explosion on the palate of my ears.
no goodbyes
bye evelyn
@@cameronmckirdy4874 >:(
Brilliant song. Strangely moving. Best thing hey've done and one of my fave songs.
[Verse 1]
I wish that we could talk about it
But there, that's the problem
With someone new I could have started
Too late for beginnings
The little things that made me nervous
Are gone in a moment
I miss the way we used to argue
Locked, in your basement
[Verse 2]
I wake up and the phone is ringing
Surprised, as it's early
And that should be a perfect warning
That something's a problem
To tell the truth I saw it coming
The way you were breathing
But nothing can prepare you for it
The voice on the other end
[Verse 3]
The worst is all the lovely weather
I'm stunned it's not raining
The coffee isn't even bitter
Because what's the difference?
There's all the work that needs to be done
It's late for revision
There's all the time and all the planning
And songs to be finished
And it keeps coming
And it keeps coming
And it keeps coming
'Til the day it stops
And it keeps coming
And it keeps coming
And it keeps coming
'Til the day it stops
And it keeps coming
And it keeps coming
And it keeps coming
And it keeps coming
And it keeps coming
And it keeps coming
And it keeps coming
'Til the day it stops
[Verse 4]
I wish that we could talk about it
But there, that's the problem
With someone new I could have started
Too late for beginnings
You're smaller than my wife imagined
Surprised you were human
There shouldn't be this ring of silence
But what are the options?
When someone great is gone
When someone great is gone
When someone great is gone
When someone great is gone
When someone great is gone
When someone great is gone
When someone great is gone
When someone great is gone
We're safe, for the moment
Saved
For the moment
Verse 2 seemingly isn’t in this, thanks for the lyrics tho!
@@ChefBarryI’m so glad it wasn’t just me who noticed this 😂
I noticed and it hits me hardest.
Love this tune 🎶
one of my all time favourites !!!!
This song makes me think about my very beloved grandfather when he passed away. I have a feeling a lot of people have someone this song could be about.
I listened to this when Mum's father died. 93 year old former professor and writer and a great man.
Love this song!!
Thank you for creating this song
The love of my life suddenly moved when I was 14 we were inseparable me and Hailee she just vanished one day, I finally found her 28 years later, I have spent 28 years searching for her now I'm 42 and my heart has been destroyed my girl had a rough time mistreated by assholes and multiple stints in prison, I'm crushed someone great did go.
I love you Nate I miss you buddy, this song reminds me of you, you were my best friend and I miss you all the time.
Other than that is a beautiful song. Great tribute, finding out it was about someone's passing just took me by surprise.
I think this song should have more views, but the longer version I think is way better. Yeah.
RIP Mom. 11/16/1960 - 1/7/2016
may you one day be with her again. remember our body is just a vessel
Her heart is still with you I'm sure; big hugs to you.
that hurt more than it should
***** He's an awful person, don't listen to him :( Reported him.
Im with you, I love this song but I cant get not even to the first minute without crying myself out. RIM Mom 07/02/1945-12/24/2014
This song evokes a deep sadness in me. It reminds me of when I was living in L.A.
2 years since Technoblade has passed away. But still, he never dies!
This tune is still going strong, with me anyways. Great MUSIC!
I showed this song to her right before the end of our relationship. I didn't realize why she didn't like it until just coming back to it. This was us and she hated it
I was not ready for this, does it ever get better?
I wish that we could talk about it
But there, that's the problem
