Lyrics:
I don't know how to cry
Does any one these days
Know what's real
Won't you take me by the hand
I didn't want to feel
Cuz life felt too hard
Now its all a game that I don't understand
Wake up
Live someone else's dream
Smile smile
Cuz they're all watching
Shakeup shakedown
They can't hear you scream
Smile smile
Can't you hear me sing?
I don't know how to feel
Does any one these days
Even care if the next man is 'live or dead?
I didn't want to look
The daylight is too hard
I feel like somethings changed
But I can't understand
Wake up
Live someone else's dream
Smile smile
Cuz they're all watching
Shakeup shakedown
They can't hear you scream
Smile smile
Can't you hear me sing?
Wake up
Live someone else's dream
Smile smile
Cuz they're all watching
Shakeup shakedown
They can't hear you scream
Smile smile
Can't you hear me sing?
There is something strange
In my brain
Thats coming through (And I never)
I hear your name
And my brain
Tears me in two

Kowloon - Wake Up (Official Video)
#Kowloon #WakeUp #ComeOver - เพลง
Came here from a youtube advert. I usually never pass up on skipping an advert, but this song is immediately distinctive. I hope other s find this song as well.
First heard on a Facebook ad then a yt one and didn't pass the second time
Same
Fr I thought it was a song then saw it was an ad
Same here 😂
Haha same!!!
This rocks, TH-cam finally advertised something worth my time. Kowloon, it's nice to meet you!
Same my guy, name sounded cool and the cover art was nice. I am pleasantly surprised YT got this %100 right.
Kowloon you jumped into my top 20 GG
It was Kowloon paying for YT adverts and you listen to good music so it got sent through your ads
@@woaken one of my friends introduced me to good music kowloon
"Thats what I said"
-someone who hates unskippable ads
Add brought me here also
To think there's millions of songs like this that I don't know about....
its horrible but amazing at the same time.
A million songs like this one but you haven't heard them yet? You could listen to this a million times...?
@@james6401 yes.
Welcome to algorithm hell
It's actually pretty chill down here
kinda different but id suggest listening to Samantha Urbani - Showing Up
if i was george soros id buy her music rights before she blow up
Best accidental discovery via Tame Impala music video. The animator and musician are both incredibly talented and it's amazing to see an intersection of the two in a trippy dreamscape.
Damn dude same here
Same!
Bro same the hell
Same
exactly the same for me too lol
Mann that bass line/solo is something else. Groovy as hell
That's exactly the part requires me to repeat the song 50 times in a row! Just exceptional.
That guitar riff 🔥
That fuckin bassline 😎
Man oh man!!! This shit is ridiculous! WHAT AN ABSOLUTE JAM! The bass, the guitar,the emotion. Gem of a song here. A heartfelt THANK YOU sir.
Thats what im saying whata absolute bop.
Friends getting together
This song is the coolest flex of “watch me catch their attention and curiosity in 5 seconds”! Great job guys, checking out more from you.
Guy.
The song is cool and chill, and when you add these visuals you create art. These visuals are really interesting. They get more and more intriguing towards the end, and they really mess with your mind. Loving this music and video ❤️🔥
how can it ever be explained
@@thesonofman1909 easily
@@dezd3111 please do!
Adding visuals doesn't make it art. It was already art
@@spacekowboy9993 its a book of living pictures
This is the equivalent of ambrosia
My ears have experienced pure bliss. So many chills down my spine. Divine
The song is very tasty to my ears. I like it. :)
Custard? 😄
Ok if ambrosia is pure bliss to you you are the most southern person I have ever found
@@arthurerby2466bro what? Does he sound southern to you? Ambrosia is the food of the gods it was originally a greek mythology thing
It may sound retarded but Its so harmonic that I have to cry
[Verse 1]
I don't know how to cry
Does anyone these days
Know what's real?
Won't you take me by the hand
I didn't want to feel
'Cause life felt too hard
Now it's all a game that I don't understand
[Chorus]
Wake up
Live someone else's dream
Smile, smile
'Cause they're all watching
Shakeup, shakedown
They can't hear you scream
Smile, smile
Can't you hear me sing?
[Verse 2]
I don't know how to feel
Does anyone these days
Even care if the next man is 'live or dead?
I didn't want to look
The daylight is too hard
I feel like somethings changed
But I can't understand
[Chorus]
Wake up
Live someone else's dream
Smile, smile
'Cause they're all watching
Shakeup, shakedown
They can't hear you scream
Smile, smile
Can't you hear me sing?
[Outro]
There’s something strange
In my brain
Thats coming through (And I never)
I hear your name
And my brain
Tears me in two
🙏💜
It’s in the description
Thanks dude
@@chumekafishback3403 ❤
Wow that's awesome I'm so happy to hear that you're going to be a Star 🌟
That freakin bass line 😍
I'm so happy that you made a music video for this song keep making music 👍
I literally just heard this on an ad. You guys made my day keep shining!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
same
Same I had to Shazam it lmao
Same! Hell of a song 🎵
Same! Such a good song
same!! this is damn cool!!
This song gets me outta my bad funk mornings. The unfeeling mornings where I feel like a cog in the machine of life and then realize with this song that I'm loving the dream of probably millions of others around the world. To have a family a job and apartment working as a waste hauler
I cannot stop listening to this song.
STILL cannot stop listening to the song. I can listen to it nonstop and not get tired of it!
Came back to say, it’s still the same, I listen every day. :)
Still the same thing
What about now?
Any updates on this?
So cool that this has an official video now... This song ruled my 2020 quarantine, seeing this in my feed took me to a really bright spot in a weird time
Same! And their song "Come Over" was in my top songs of 2021 lmao. This was a nice surprise that popped up on my feed.
Same.. 🥰🥰🥰
First 19 secs of that guitar rift I knew it was gonna be a banger!!!🎉
Очень спокойная и расслабляющая музыка вместе с сочной и красочной анимацией это просто шедевр!
Одобряю!
You know a song is good when the most played part is 0:01
😂👍✌️
Remember kids, always film the pirates 🤳🚔🏴☠️👀🇺🇸
I hope we all wake up from this nightmare
Samsara
Wake up for your self not for others they will wake one day or not don't matter in the end just be real you.
@@Sumooo6 im doing this for me. you're right, it wont change anything for me if they do or dont. i still want it. i still hate the deception.
@@mitchellconta4472 you think it continues forever? no exit?
@Trevor-08 I get you. I do too but so hard... I live in town where there so much meth but no one trys good drugs
I usually skip ads immediately but 5 seconds in and I was in love. This is my kind of tune.
This has been my new favorite song for more than a month now. Reminds me of something from before… all of this new shit. It is new, however. Yet, somehow, not derivative, completely new, original, and relevant. I played this for a friend who was in a storm of emotions, it calmed them down, made them feel centered, they looked at me and hugged me, and said that it was so beautiful. Thank you for creating this.
yea gorrilas
That's beautiful!
Finally! An application of the 60s/70s advert art style that doesn’t seem so cheap and uninspired.
Well said!
Agreed Bro. i can dig this. 🙌🏽
I’ve been playing this song first thing in the morning every day for the past month.
It feels like this song programmed my brain to literally “wake up”, my life has changed so rapidly and drastically recently.
This song makes me feel like everything will be okay
I feel like that happens a lot to me with music. A certain song comes into my life with meanings that pertain perfectly to the moment. It's uncanny
With this voice and sound, this guy is gonna pop off
Never heard of this artist before, but discovered it through a youtube advert. Honestly stunning, I could listen to the song all day. And the artwork is so beautiful! Thank you so much for this song ❤
Hits different at night when your cruising 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
On my heavenly body
@@brendansanchez9022 I bet .
Ah yea
You've became my favorite artists to listen too
3:20 is when it really starts to kick in for me
Hey you might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like Kowloon! Similar chill vibes ❤
This is personally the only TH-cam ad that I could not skip. This song really takes the 80’s aspect and art visuals of it, and it is incredibly chilling and satisfying! Thanks, Tame Impala for leading me to this masterpiece!
Felt the same way. Nicely said
So good! The TH-cam algorithm needs to pick this one up!
You are underrated my good sir
this shit slaps I hope your music career goes far
I love finding new music on TH-cam ❤
its like the universe places dope music in my path randomly all the time🤔💓
Yay!!
Man, I remember hearing this song for the first time and I still can't get enough of it. You can be in any mood and feel good when you hear this. Love the vid too keep up the amazing work
Beautiful song!!! Honestly always worth a listen. Just danced around outside to this while enjoying the beautiful night atmosphere and listening to the tunes :)
I couldn’t help but dance to this song as well. It’s really something else. You can feel it moving your body, and this feeling in your stomach growing. Truly amazing
Please keep making music like this, I need more of it man.
Am I the only one that didn’t come from some random place and actually just found this on my recommended?
You are not the only one
Not the only one ×2
I did lol!
Top of my recommend videos, the algorithm just knows my music taste by now lol
Same, just vibin now
this animation is absolutely amazing! Kudos to the musician and the animator(s)!!!!!!!!
Saw the ad, didn’t skip, listened all the way, immediately looked this up when it was over, now I’ve listened to it about five times so far and don’t plan on stopping yet.
Helped me through some tough days. Just vibing it thru, dancing on my anxieties or worries away. Helped me walk roads when it felt dark.
Me too 💜💜💜💜
Funny how this song found me the day after i should’ve died
Glad you made it to❤
What happened
I was almost carjacked and or stabbed. But his woman who I rescued climbed on top of him till we got where he wanted to go. And at that house was a man I knew for a long time, and an old lady who pulled her handgun on the guy and made him get out of my car. (I took the keys when I jumped out and ran inside their house)
I knew the right and wrong people back then
Tell us your story 😊
I had this song as an ad yesterday and since then i have a total earworm of it.
Love it, keep this great music up!❤️👍
The aesthetics in this video are right up my alley. Bless these mad vibe-givers
this is some divine shih right here
This song does something to my body that feels good-vibes-only
The simple guitar melody caught my attention in an ad and I gotta say this song is nice
found this song in 2021, probably one of my all time favorite songs of the decade so far. amazing visualizer
That bassline is indescribably good. Transcedent🥵. That part from 3:02-3:20 feels like it tells the history of humanity through sound imo.
Hey you might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like Kowloon! Similar chill vibes ❤
dont you mean fron 0:01-3:57?
Reminds me of disco/hardstyle baselines
Discovered this song by pure accident by ads. I usually hate ads on here and try to skip as soon as possible, but this immdiately caught my ears. That guitar + bass riff----sick as hell! the mellow vocals! the music video's art style with it's pop colors and cel-animation type of feel to it.... good ass song 11/10
I have watched this so many times and I am so soothed by your voice and imagery
Literally the ONLY ad I didn’t skip. Song is fire & been on repeat ! 🔥 🔥
*hear your name in my brain, tears me in two.* I've never felt such pain and relatability at lyrics..it kinda feels how a long relationship feels when you put in all that effort..
Rare Advert W. I have been listening to this non-stop ever since.
this is the coolest visual for such a cool song. good work!!
I am so happy i didnt skip the youtube ad, this is gold to my ears :)))) Nice to meet you Kowloon!
This song is awesome. I found it recently and i just love it. That guitar is so good. The drums. The vocals mesh so well with it. All the pieces together make it so perfect :). (the songs lyrics i cant even find the words to describe. They speak for themselves)
I just spent a Solid Hour Trying to re-find this song
100% worth it
a perfect song for a chill out with a creative art of music video. giving me good vibez❤
Very cool vibe smooth sound got an old school feel too love it!
The best music is the stuff you have never listened to before
No words needed..this song just made my day and it was this morrning that i've found it
An absolute hippie vibe song to smoke to ❤️ keep it up sounds amazing!
何気なく見つけてしまったけど
MVのセンスめちゃ良いし
音楽たいへんイカしてるな〜！！！
Agreed❤
Love it. Has a "Grand National" feel about it. Kudos to the writer of the main bass riff.
Man this takes me back to the early 2000's, a vibe that never gets old. You got talent man.
This is such an incredible song
I love finding new songs on TH-cam ads. And this one was killing it. It's so good, so calming. 10/10 good job.
Like most comments came across this on an ad and phone was face down on my bed , before i l knew it , feet was tapping and i was swaying in my room tranced ... what a tune ! Got it right in all aspects , vocals , backing track and cool vid too !! Straight on my playlist .. people are right , song made for lazy sunday mornings in bed, sun shining through the curtains ... after the night before ! Love it ! ❤
Kowloon, you nailed all the aspects I adored as a kid and teen growing up in the 80s and early 90s. Beautiful voice, tender lyrics, I am an immediate fan. For an autistic GenXer, first time also that I fell in love with both music and lyrics. I cannot wait to witness the world discovering your gifts. Thanks! Namaste
Great song 👍, Cool to see the perfect visuals to go with 🎶
Me and my friends were tripping ABSOLUTE BALLS last night watching music videos and this song came up on an ad and it literally blew our minds. Great song.
Haha nice 💜
YES! this is hitting the vibes and feels all at the same TIME!
Christ youtube if you just gave me ads of dope songs ide literaly never skip an ad again.
Song is an absolute banger!
I came across this on accident and I don’t regret it at all. Love it!
i have this song stuck in my head every single day......thanks
This is a banger of a song. Best one out of all his other songs. Need more tunes like this.
I'm in love with this vibe
I get 2010s decade vibes from this 🔥🔥🔥
Every now and then you just find pure Gold, time to listen to it on acid🫡
Damn the first ad I actually click on in years! Great music and even better video!
This was number 1 on the top of my feed and I thought I'd give it a listen. So glad I did
This shit slaps harder than my adopted father. I’m showing all my friends. Lad, don’t ever stop creating
😂😂😂😂
He sounds like a stern hard nosed parental unit
Watch your friends not like it lol
It's sad how hard you're trying.
Wow, I stumbled upon this masterpiece while surfing TH-cam and now I simply can’t stop watching and listening. Is it some kind of a hypnosis? Coz I wanna stay in it forever *^*
This gives me "In the sun again" - Sunny day service, vibes. And I love that song. Immediately in love with this.
Bro please dont ever stop making these absolutely gems 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you for making such an untouchable beat and sound i am in L O V E.
This song is a vibe
I'm absolutely blown away by the lysergic art video!
Conveying psychedelia so strongly with seemingly clean and simple aesthetics, hiding the details in plain sight, ...
4:07 artists ❤
First time in my entire recent memory ive listened all the way through an ad, what a banger of a song great work!
"smile cz they all watching" with the beat makes me feel like i just hit the craziest tabs
I remember first hearing this song through a friend of mine in VR Chat. I asked him where he heard this song and what the name of the song was, and about a day later i was watching this music video. It has a serious 70's to 80's vibe, and i absolutely love it. It juat has that familiar kind of vobe and feel to it
This is my new repeat song for a long time. Only youtube ad I’ve literally ever cared about
I can’t wait to listen to more tunes by my man here, to discover the realm of sound I’ve been searching for my whole life? Priceless… thank you, man.
Kowloon ❤
The song and the music video are a work of art!!
I discovered this song twice. First time when i was drunk i made a screenshot of the ad and completely forgot about it and the second time some months later it just randomly popped up again. Both times before listening to Borderline by Tame Impala. Thank you TH-cam for memorizing my taste of music and bringing me this masterpiece
Hey you might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like Kowloon! Similar chill vibes ❤
lmao i love how most of us got here from tame impala. opinions on borderline?
Damn I got here right before listening to that too
Also I really like the singing bird at 0:48 Bird makes me happy.
This is really fucking good man. Kudos to you friend. I've been playing this on repeat for like 2 hours
