Cool, only thing missing is a little voice stuttering at the begining
Lmao 🤣
😂😂
Just saw that video
LOL
Hahahahaha! This song reminds me of stuff I do and do not want to remember, always a good sign but thanks for this laugh! Also watch out for that ferocious black 🐈
Heard this in a McDonald's toilet, actually liked it and Shazammed it. No regrets.
In the toilet
Yeah. I was measuring the force of the flushes to see if they could withstand the mass and force of my turds.
FrimJay With your hand?
user 7823472d48 No, I was using my boner-hiding apparatus.

I heard 30 seconds of this song when I was 12, and my Ma spent 2 hours finding it for me... rest in peace Ma, we all miss you and your endless kindness ❤️
Even my ma passed last year
They're always a part of us brother
As long as we breathe...
Stay strong
@@predatorpool2986 I'm really sorry to hear that my Brother, they're gone from this world but they haven't gone far
@P Mc I would heart this comment if I could! You're absolutely right though, it's just nice to reminisce about the old days!
Damn Im on one of these 4am nostalgia runs and your comment just made me burst out crying. We love you ma and we will make you proud of us!
😢😢😢
It’s 2022…I’m 71:years old…playing this on an endless loop. Glorious!
Hope you're well Zoe
Still alive bro ?
Where you at you good?
Are you still jamming
ill be playing till im 501
This song is perfect for those late night drives down the highway, when there’s nobody else around, and you just reflect on the beauty of life
brian fidel I’m with you on that , but I don’t have a car , still reflect on stuff . The break down is angelic
Gotta love those therapeutic night drives.

What about strobe under a starry night or All I have? Or even Right this Second while the plane's taking off
daire kelly I know you are , h.i v the lot Haha
good thing that deadmau5 got a hold of chris.
Lol
chris got a hold of deadmau5 actually js
You're wrong, sorry.
okay dude
ReaktionEDM I watched the stream the viewers found Chris, told Joel, Joel contacted chris.
And to think that this song was able to be released because Chris shared his vocal mix on Joel's stream and he actually played it. That just blows my mind.
Right??! I was surprised Joel was like "fuckit i'll let the jury decide"
30 seconds in... "MOTHER FUCKER!"
so awesome
The craziest part is that he considered not even checking it
I think Ray B and Joel Z deserve a big shout out in this, J's hizzzhowz. Yes , chris provided ingredients to a large recipe. Wait is he "the voice" from "stir up the cambells, soup is good food?"
...this is the true humility of a genius. If it's next level...it's fuckn next level bro...no matter who you are!
This song is Deadmau5 magnum opus. It's literally perfect
Really well put. I love so many of his other songs for different reasons but this really is his Magnum Opus.
I just watched the video of Joel finding the guy who did these vocals. Great song.
who's the guy?
Gaurav K
Really?
definitely not Chris James ;)
His name is darude, search him up !
Ayy I watched that live on his stream. It was awesome!
The way Deadmau5 and Chris James met was absolutely perfect.
i watch that video as inspiration. crazy how he was discovered. makes it seem like it can happen to me
Reddit brought me here 😆🖤
Reddit brought me here!
Reddit brought me here too 🤣
Just saw it on Reddit as well lmao
Needs more vocal stutter but otherwise fantastic
I see what you did there
yeah it needs to be more clever there i dont know
@@kleinemaus6094 It's a joke, dive deeper into the songs origin and you'll get it.
love the comments that are taking you seriously. But yep, more vocal stutter and cowbell if possible pls.
@@matthewstonhouse156 Gotta love that moralizing: "Allow unique to exist!" wiggling his index finger around :D
It’s 2023 and this song sounds brand new all over again. Perfect beat, vocals, techno ❤
yeah i havent heard it for couple of years now too

This is not Techno😅

This story is extremely fucking dark.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Veldt_(short_story)
www.d.umn.edu/~csigler/PDF%20files/bradbury_veldt.pdf
lasrswordja dark as fuck
***** uh no... wtf? it's a story of 2 children named peter and wendy who "never grow up" because they were so psychologically tuned to rely their lives on the "nursery" which projects anything they want. their parents were just clueless what it could do to them. ray bradbury wrote the story to tell people about what technology could do to people and how children are so easily affected by conditioning
***** yeah this. the parents' only crime i suppose was neglect. the kids made a world that happened to be dangerous and it ended up killing the parents. To the children though it was THEIR world and they would do anything for it, it meant so much to them.
2024 checking in. Only discovered this song because of the reaction video and man was it a blessing.
Same,thank you tiktok for doing something good for once
Samesies. What a delightful song. Especially vocals.
I knew of this song for a long time before I ever watched the reaction video of him finding Chris. Such a great video it is.
Yep ❤
This is one of the few songs that makes me cry. I first heard it when I was 25 and living on my own in Florida (moved from Virginia) to be a Flight instructor at a small airport. While I lived there I had met a beautiful waitress that was also into deadmau5 and we hung together in downtown Orlando clubbing. Sadly, she passed away a few years ago when I left Florida to be an airline pilot. She was in rehab. The song is real tearjerker for me...
I feel for u sry bud much love
sorry to hear that bro. God bless you
hope we fly together one day and listen to Deadmau5 bro
Wonderful story but I'm sorry for you.God bless you!
Stay strong bro
The synths are so perfect, feels like I can see them. Like perfectly rounded edges.
idk why but this makes complete sense haha
🍂
Perfect visual description, 100%
It needs more vocal stutter but other than that it's great
Same here. I have synesthesia so the synths are little orange and purple balls just bouncing around to the beat.

When people say electronic music has no emotion
HAVE U EVER HEARD OF THE CHEMICAL BROTHERS. I'VE LOVED THEM SINCE 1996!!!
Amazing. Now this is music. Real music
Yes! You're right! In the break on 4:50 min i became goosebumbs! again and again. No actor can make this better!
If you guys want the most emotional electronic song. The BPM is a bit high though.
Introversion - dystopia
Maximus russo for real, I get goosebumps from this song.
Those birds sounds in the back are just marvellous. Amazing.
7 years passed.....
Still feels like it was released yesterday ❤️❤️❤️
Exactly
Of course
8 years ago..
I remember when this video released, what a journey it's been ❤️❤️❤️
Yes it does
This is a song that came out when I was 19..... I'm 30 years old and it brings me back to a time I cant describe anymore. I am so happy being 30 years old and how nice my life is now, however, this song brings me to a time in my life where things were a bit more interesting... like I didn't know where I was going and what the hell I was doing. Something you kids should take advantage of. It. Believe me, things only get better. Make your younger years worth it. You'll be happy later on. Cheers all!
Say no more, friend. I turned 31 this month and was a full on EDM head back in those days almost obsessed. Anyhow, for me at the time this was one of deadmau5' newer tracks that no other artist could hold a candle to at the time. A magical time to be young, indeed.
If you got hit by a supersoaker at Veld in Toronto, high chance it was me! fuck I love this tune!
30 years old here as well, you summarized exactly how I feel about this song. It's my all time favorite, and that feeling - it's ability to take me back - is largely why.
Krásne napisane
I went to Vegas alone for an early 24th birthday this year 🥹 I’m glad I did I’ll never forget what I gifted myself. I love being alone often and most times it turns out to be the best times of my life. My friends.. I cut those off they’re not on my level of fun. I saw deadmau5 live at zouk in Vegas too. Best memories !!! Makes me wanna tear up now haha
I love the double meaning of the lyrics. One meaning is that of the Ray Bradbury story. The other is of a metaphorical description of the electronic music scene.
I love the short story :D
"The world that the children made"
This has to be one of the most beautiful songs of the 21st century. I remember when i was just joining university and i discovered this song during my electronic music era, dubstep, drum n bass progressive house…ahh man times were gooood..wish we could loop time the way people worldwide have looped this song.
I remember being fresh out of high school and bought my first car. It was a convertible mustang fox body and I’d just cruise through the hills blasting this song. Man simpler times… I miss it
Don't mind me, i'm just filling up my nostalgia cup before the end of this decade.
you are my bro
Its hard to swallow inst it? Gosh 2020, I cant handle this
With all the videocalling and stuff due to social distancing, now we're kinda a digital family °o°
Take me back

Happy life, with the machines ♪
we r in the same page ingrid lol on this one
Yess
***** xD win
***** you are the fucking devil bruh
*****
That, I think, wasn't his point. His point was the story this is based off (Link: www.d.umn.edu/~csigler/PDF%20files/bradbury_veldt.pdf ) ends in the 2 children killing their own parents to keep their technology, the house, the room, all of it. He's not saying, I'm gonna presume, ALL technology is evil, just that the story, which was basically the children merging with the machine, ended in the creation of murderers of their own parents. As if possessed by the devil, but it was all this technology.
«Ray Bradbury’s short story “The Veldt” and Dai Sato's anime, “Ergo Proxy” share a common theme, both of these stories show how depending too much on technology is not good for us both physically and mentally.
In both of these narratives, the humans begin relying on technology so much that they cannot do things for themselves. In “The Veldt” the children always had machines do everything for them, but when the technology left, they did not even know how to tie their own shoes. In Ergo Proxy, one of the main characters, Re-I Mayer, makes her personal robot do all the menial tasks like driving and preparing food for her. Because of this, when a robot was chasing her and getting close to killing her, she couldn’t drive away and instead crashed her car and was almost killed. In both cases, the humans relied on their technology too much and as a consequence, they couldn’t properly do things for themselves.»
Best deadmau5 song ever, masterpiece
Such a happy song for such a twisted story.
yeah .. like this world .. something does not match up … lol
Lmao true , the song is at its best form if u never read the short story
Ikr, before I realized the actual story behind it, I thought it was a happy song 😆
@@anthonynguyen2661 It ruins the entire thing
I was wondering why it was named the same thing I studied in English and yup, its based on the story.
I don't know what it is about this song, but it has the unique ability to calm me down, no matter how stressed I get. Something about this song makes me feel like everything will be alright.
Evan Jarvis A good melody and good sound design probably play a part in it. What's ironic though is the fact that the lyrics and song title are about a really dark Sci-Fi short story called The Veldt which was written by Ray Bradbury.
Ben Knight I know. I love that story. Maybe part of the reason that I like the song haha.
Yup...holy shit yup
OMG! I feel the SAME way!!😎
Exact same thing with me.! This is probably the only thing on this planet that controls me down and relaxes me.
This is my first Deadmau5 song, untill i found this song i didnt really know who Deadmau5 was but now i know that he is an awesome music producer.
PrimaVodka My first Dmau5 song was Ghosts n' stuff.....typical
So there I was and alone with you were my first two.

Almost 2 and a half years later, this is still my favourite song ever. Still brings a tear to my eye.
Same so much Nostalgia of 2012 especially Veld music fest where Deadmau5 Played this amazing song
Preach it this song is pure bliss
I don't know how Joel does it. I am gonna miss this guy when he dies lol
***** kinda fucked but nice at same time just lets not get to ahead of ourselves
come here Yeah..
3:30-4:30
Wow. This whole minute is to me the best part of the song. An absolutely gorgeous breakdown of everything with some beautiful strings, and great field recording type background. I want to listen to this part looped forever. An absolutely beautiful piece of music
Yeah. I love this part too!!
Yep. Music is heaven for our soul. Just incredible.
Ditto!!!
This part gave me coldplay vibes!
Indeed... i feel the same..
Have it on a mix CD from 2012.🥹
The CD is from my most favorite Radio Station back then which doesn't exist anymore. They played DJ Mixes every Weekend at Friday and saturday afternoon and sometimes they made concerts with those DJ's and released CD's after the event.
When this song recently came out, I was around 14 years old, modern warfare 2 was all I played, sitting in my room with nothing to worry about only school, I experienced my first love and girls were starting to come into my life, I wish I could go back to these days as they were much more simpler
Those really were the best times. I think going back now would get boring pretty quick, because you've grown so much and can take on bigger and better challenges now :) Cheers
It's been 8 years? This always feels new.
I feel you man, but at the same time that's what makes it so beautiful. Don't be sad that it's over, but be glad it happened. ✌🏻
Very similar experience. All I did was play Skyrim, hang out with friends, and bike everywhere that summer, and I too, found someone special. Simpler times knowing we had it great but didn't realize it at the time.
Your not the only one
This is 11 years old?? Holy sh*t this is a timeless masterpiece!

12 Years later here an still getting emotional on this song. One of the best tracks ever made. Thank you!
I was sitting in English class today and we were reading short stories, needless to say i was thumbing through the book of short stories and "the vedlt" by ray bradbury showed up in there. Jesus fuck did i ever get goosebumps.
i saw that too
holy shit, dude. I'm not sure if i preferred not knowing where the lyrical inspiration comes from, or if I like the song better now that I know.
I'm just stating this out , the short story is made by Ray Bradbury , in the music video (it's either the start or end , it says , R.I.P Ray Bradbury)
***** The story is dark, but very interesting. And it's beginning to happen already. Some parents are so lazy that they entirely depend on their tablets and phones to entertain their children.
i think its kinda cool that he in a way turned the story into a song
8 and a half minutes of pure happiness
@Ethan Tercier
Too true
How's life?
i LOVE this song however people dont understand about the fucked up thing that it's talking about. Deadmau5 is referencing the short story "The Veldt". in the story, an electronic house that a family lives in makes the children fall in love with it. in the house, there's a room called the Veldt. it's basically a room where you can dream of something and then it happens. The kids dream of playing with lions. This freaks the hell out of the parents and the parents try to shut down their play room. the kids get angry also when the parents decide the electronic house is taking control of their lives. by now, the kids are psychotic and want to stop their parents from shutting it down. so they beg their parents to use the veldt one more time and lock them in with their lions they brought to life. ray bradbury was writing fucked up stuff.
Im in 8th grade and just read the Veldt in class!! Its a messed up story when you really look at it.
+9Epicman Is that in the Martian Chronicles book?
+Albert Balbastre-Morte Its a very old short story.
+9Epicman Well Ray Bradbury did write the book "Fahrenheit 451" so off course The Veldt was fucked up.
+9Epicman Looking at the story it's amazing, I got to buy the book!
One of the best EDM songs ever recorded.

Thanks
I've been coming back to this for yyeaarrsss now. It has always gave me clarity in times when I
was almost lost.
Thank you Joel & Chris.
the way this song was made (the discover of the vocal part) is a testimony of how you do art !
Don't know why but this song makes me feel sad and happy at the same time ..
Read the short story if you haven't already. "The Veldt" by Ray Bradbury, it's what the song is based off of. Very happy and sad story; more creepy then anything I suppose.
Its called nostalgia wtf
I don't get why everyone think it's creepy? I have read it and i don't think that it's creepy.
You don't find it creepy that two small children become so desensitized to violence that they conspire to have their parents murdered after the parents try to discipline them? Maybe you have been spending too much time in the playroom... ;)
Haha, you really don't know whats creepy i think. I have sawn things you really don't want to see. I find it a very nice story instead.
The Veldt - the very first story (other than the introduction) the Ray Bradbury's sci-fi masterpiece "The Illustrated Man", 1951 I think. I read this collection of fantastic and straightforward short-stories when I was 14. It really changed my perspective on fiction.
"Can you hear the screams?!" "Happy technology!" "Living with technology!" Perfect summary of the story. Bravo to deadmau5 and the writer of the vocals! Peace&Love y'all, live life outside of an apartment!
whenever I walk home from school I listen to this song and walk at the rhythm. thanks for existing, deadmau5, you really changed my life for the greater good through music. xx
I listen to this when I'm depressed
This song helps me a lot :)
+DarkAn9el05 same here :/
I actually read this book (The Veldt). It's actually a really good read. Reading the book gave me a new sense of love for this song.
Once you read the book, you will listen to this, and find what this really is... art.
What's the book about? Is it about the simulation theory? I think this song might be deadmau5 take on that subject
@@christieneutz249 it’s about an automated house with a nursery that projects life like images the children think of the African Veldt and it can’t really change and the parents are worried and try turning off the whole house which upsets the kids
I love how other people know about this book
@@jacobblyth had to read it in English class freshman year of high school. Had no idea that deadmau5 wrote a song about it until a couple years later lol.

This song is a very interesting take on Ray Bradbury's "The Veldt".
It reveals a perspective we never thought about before.
sounding like my life atm smh
"this fucking guy.."
-DeadMau5
I can't get over the origin of this song. Still butterin' my biscuit 12 years later... absolute gold.
This is just such an incredibly powerful piece of music. A once in a generation kind of song.
When I feel a depression coming on, this is hands down the only medicine I turn to. Thank the Gods for Deadmau5.
Really? I get depressed by hearing it, but I love it
It is about two kids killing their parents lol
This banger is 10 years old now... time flies
doesnt it just, feels like yesterday
That stuttering voice still missing (if you know what I mean) xDddd
@@o0GodZila0o It does my friend
Been in love this song ever since I was a child. Heard it on the radio during a summer trip with my family. I still think about that trip, and this song on my iPod touch repeating over and over. Thank you for gifting this beautiful song to a generation of children that have memories similar to mine
Aw man, to this day I jam out to this on my old iPod Classic. It sounds so rich on an older iPod with wired headphones!
The real meaning of this song is about the short story "The Veldt." It is about a family that lives in a house full of technology. However the children get obsessively attached to a room called The Nursery. It is a room that makes the setting be what the children wanted. They made it the veldt, a part of the African Savannah, with virtual lions. However, when the parents try to take the children out on a vacation, the children lure the parents in an then lock them from the outside. The lions then come out of this virtual dimension and eat the parents, and the kids live on. It's pretty disturbing.
🚙
The Short Story was messed up, but Deadmau5's songs never disappoint me. Deadmau5 for president.
This is a song you feel, you dont listen to it
great point here, most of my friends dont get that
Yanik Leduc Its gradually being lost
agree with you
This song might be good for a view montge am i right
Pretty sure i used it for a video game killing montage
The time when you are comming back to a song and want to add it to your Favorites but the video is already there....
Kinda feeling old right now but I don't regret the last 12 years. The song just makes me feel 18 again.
When your high this song takes you to a alternate universe 👌🏿
***** I almost had an orgasm.

+Zachary Donato Especially psychedelics. Listening to uplifting tunes such as this one on LSD is the next best thing to achieving nirvana.
+Zachary Donato Gotta try to do this.
Damn I remember when this came out it was near summer and I was an anxious mess. I remember my ex breaking up with me the first week of summer and getting my bike stolen. Holy crap it was bad all I had was a soccer ball and music and damn did that change my life, I would practice soccer 5 hours everyday and listen to music, it was the best. as July came my birthday did too and I got a new bike and oh man did I bike ride that day! I would always play this song because it would relax me and bring great thoughts to me.i would always end my days with song bike riding home with a big smile on my face. Thanks to deadmau5 and his music I am better from anxiety. He's the greatest and so is this song !
brilliant story man, glad it all worked out
Hope life has been better for you!
tnx for sharing the vibes!
I can 100% agree. I have so many bad emotions now, but the song heals me at the moment! It has something that nearly no other song has... I'm hearing it the first time btw.
Holy crap the story hits different when the song is playing
Bro its been a little over 4 years since this song came out, I can't believe how fast time goes by
Two years later...
@@Muse1618 5 more years later
One of my old main smoke songs when I started smoking. Now it brings back memories and feelings of love and happiness
Perfection. No way can I explain how Joel has changed my life with his music. All I can say is thank you for making my life better.
It's been 8 years? This always feels new.
10 years ago I was abroad in London and heard this track for the first time. Every few nights me and my friends would stay up until 4-5am listening to this track and other deadmau5. It’s honestly fucking incredible how music acts as a portal. It’s such a powerfully beautiful agent in this wild life of ours. I’m grateful everyday for these sounds.
One of deadmau5s capsule songs. Absolutely velvet beat 12 years ago.
I’m 40 years old. The first time I heard this song I was 30, and upon hearing it, I felt like it had always been a part of me. Like the song knew me and I just became aware of its melody. Joel, you beautifully speak to the parts of my heart I didn’t realize were still there, and have been singing to me all along. ❤️🩹🖤❤️🩹🖤 Thank you 🎶
I found this song 8 minutes and 41 seconds ago and i love it already
Nothing to do. Perfect combination of voice, rhythm and sound like no other of Deadmau5. Awesome masterpiece
My brother always used to put this on when we went on night drives.... This song is such a vibe ❤. Those were good times...
I love this song so much .
I love you..
junebug9594 LOL
junebug9594
I love you, too? xD
junebug9594 DRAMA BOMB :D
I used to be like you , then I decided to read to story about this song ... now Its different D:
This song hits different after reading The Veldt by Ray Bradbury. Chris James absolutely nailed the lyrics.
Ngl this song made me sick to my stomach when I learned the context of the lyrics.
YT videos in which Joel is producing from his Toronto condo and videos with his famous coffee runs, that's how my "journey" with Joel's music started. Seems like yesterday...Hats off for Joel, producing all this wonderful music!
The story of the song and the story of how he found the vocalist who edited the song with lyrics on it are both amazing
Haha, he actually made him get rid of the stutter effect!
Glad he did,seems more professional,the stutter it's not bad but it doesn't belong in this track
This was mine and my best friends favourite song, sadly he was killed in a car accident going on two years this year. Fuck what I'd do to have him back here... Love you forever brother.
The breakdown at exactly 5:00 is sofa king badass. Reminds me of my first Bay Area Rave. Gathering. 97. Summer. Oakland, Ca. Waiting in line (outside the doors) to get in 😆
It brought tears to my eyes, somehow, I don't know why. But, *Deadmau5* was so excited about this, that I literally cried for happiness instead of him!
+Moozy Mathers I just watched the vid where he finds the vocals I guess thats what you were referring to there. I felt a similar kind of rrespect like how important it seemed to him. He takes his work very seriously and I respect that so much.
Steve Cunliffe Indeed.
still does for me omg
Who else is still here in 2024?
I’m in
I’m in now
我
Not me
Yo
Shoutout James for killing it what a cool story
Who's still getting goosebumps listening to this in 2021?
Me
me
me dude
Absolutely !
@Ajaxis we all do
Alright, off to the gaming playlist with you.
You just gave me a project for the next hour. Thanks. 😂😂
Mystic LMAO
Still can't believe some guy came up with these lyrics during a live video of Joel's and he used them in his official song, it does make it so much better though.
My brothers name is Chris, mine is James. Chris passed away 4 yrs ago. It’s nice hearing such a beautiful song with such a cool story and the guy discovered is my brother and I 😢
did u guys know the story behind the vocals of this song ?
it was recorded on a live stream ,
there was fan that gave deadmau5 his vocal remix of the veldt wich was just an instrumental and deadmau5 liked it
lol those facts are known right after release!
Did you know that the song and lyrics are actually from a short story?
***** You're an ass
Scruffy Hobo Book
Joaquim Ley It was a short story by ray bradbury.
I started listening to this in 2013, and it is still my favorite song.
Well done.
To this day, one of the greatest songs ever done with an incredible back story. Wish I was back in these times. 😞
Timeless music!
2024 and counting…
Just Watch Deadmau5 after he found the guy who did the vocal !!! wooow amazing !!!
