The restaurant I worked at played this on their soundtrack and for years I’ve wondered who sings this. Literally four years of trying to shazam this song but every time it came on I’d have a new table to greet. One day after a long day after driving home I was about to park and exit the car when it came on the radio. I sat in the dark late at night, shazamed it and felt finally at peace. So happy I could die..
Some of my favorite memories came from working at Hollister in the early/mid 2010s with all the friends I made/great times we had. This song was on the last soundtrack before I quit to leave for dental school, and now I'd give anything to go back to those days. Doubly true when I listen to this song
If you're in California, I highly suggest that you go out at night (preferably your yard, porch or rooftop), sit somewhere that's nice, calm and quiet and listen to this song. It's fucking magical, I can't even put it into words. I miss California so much, best state of them all
Soothing sixties vibe that transports me back to the sensual memories from a moment in time when things were much more simple than today. Perhaps it was the rose colored glasses we wore, the unmodified food, the escape time in the spirit of the outdoors, the idealism of our 20's, the adventure of freely exploring our path, the pull towards hope....... Thank You!!!!!!
I was stationed in San Diego for 3.5 Years on the USS Ranger. This song makes me think about Mission Beach at midnight, the smell of Square Pan Pizza coming down the street meeting the smell of good weed coming up from the ocean and being caught in between with love in my heart and a dream in my hand..., I have been where this song comes from and I wish I could go back..., It was a real dream that made me live and live so wonderfully away from my ship and the hard times there.
I've lived in California my whole life, and this is my favorite song about my home state ever. Yes, Going to California by Zep is great, but this captures what California means to me, it captures some impossible to explain essence. This is California.
Amazingly, this song captures the feeling i had living in Cali. I moved to the bay area in the late 90's and I just remember the warm nights, the sweet scents, and the great people.
Back in 2015, on a road trip driving from San Francisco back to Lakewood California, it was around 3 in the afternoon, driving through an area with hills, vines, farms, and similar to the video, this song comes on XM ALT station, just an overwhelming feeling of bliss…
I got feelings for your comment. No other words I’m happy I can relate to other people coming back here to explain a similar time to the memories they shared this song too
somehow joyful, uplifting yet the lead melody is euphoric & melancholy. very peculiar mix that all works together. I feel tears of happiness when i listen to this.
Really loving this song both lyrically and musically. After moving to California last year, one of the things I love most about this state is taking in the gorgeous sunsets.
chunkymonkeyisspunky no I'm not saying the lyrics are super meaningful or anything I'm just saying I can relate to them because I live in LA and California nights/sunsets are actually amazing, both when high and sober
chunkymonkeyisspunky Lyrically she is wonderful to listen to. She makes me think I'm flying through clouds. LOL Heard this on the radio 5 minutes ago.....love it.
'California Nights' is an absolutely beautiful dreamy song which showcases the talent of Best Coast. The cinematography in this video is also well done.
I finally found this song! When it came out KCRW in Los Angeles would play it and will transport me, I was living by the beach in Marina del Rey/Venice and had many years of magical moments with my ex-wife there. I loved her and this song so much, that I wanted to make a music video for it, and I started actually doing the shots. Some of them when filming drones just came out. One day I will finish it and post it. Thank you for the great memories and tunes. Love you.
Snacks makes a cameo! This is such a dreamy song. I was able to see Beth and Bob at Pappy & Harriet's this last weekend and they were amazing. The performed this song along with about 3 others from the new album and they sound amazing! Didn't get a chance to meet Bethany, but I've met Bob a few times and he really is the nicest guy ever. Love Best Coast FOREVER!
I'm an Australian. I first heard this song when I was waiting on hold to get through to level 2 support at my work. I would pray for this song every time. Thank you, you don't know how much this song helped me make it through my shifts.
i'm an indian and i listen to this song to feel that power! this makes me feel i can conquer. its alright and i got this! going to go california drive by a desert at sunset blasting this on speakers with a beer.
I lived in California all my life and never left the state until about 3 weeks ago when I hopped on a plane kinda on a whim and moved out to a different state. I miss so much about California. Listening to this on a night drive on the 5 freeway and staring at the sky, ocean and buildings. I miss it there. I'll come back someday.
Huw Guyver Try Altogether, 40 Days, Alison & Blue Skied an' Clear, but I suggest just listening to one of their albums all the way through. Also you should check out the song 'Hare Tarot Lies' by No Joy if you like this particular Best Coast song.
How do you even conceptualize a song like this in your mind? I mean, this is so organizationally perfect, harmonically perfect, a total gem. My god, tripping without drugs perfect!
They say its important to write about what you know or love or passionate about,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Best Coast pulls this off excellently !!! and at least the song isn't about BOOTY CALLS etc etc !!!!
California is very beautiful, I recommend driving the Pacific coast highway (Route 1) from San Diego to San Fransisco. Doing San Diego to Seattle this year!
Done it last year, it was simply magical! And got lucky they re-opened it. I would advice to go from Barcelona / Spain all over to north Italy. That's a road trip but you will go through some amazing landscapes 😎
This is what I listened to when leaving texas after we sold our home and headed west to WA state. Best times. Now it sucks but looking back it was the good days. Will relive these again. If not in WA state then New Mexico. I loved listening to this while watching a rain storm blowing in New Mexico. Beautiful ❤️
I listen to this almost daily - too bad for those that have a problem with it, move on I say - for me, and I see below for many others it's a great song...and if you were born, bred, raised, and battle hardend in Southern California it really is almost an anthem...BEST COAST ROCKS!!!! CALIFORNIA NIGHTS - oh so many, on the beach kickin back with good friends laughing loving - friendships that would endure the test of time- wishing those nights would never end....and now, this song comes along and throws me back to those memories...California Nights Forever! West Coast! Best Coast FOREVER!!! Keep on ROCKIN!!!
Chillie Poon Does that include alcohol and over-the-counter prescription? I personally try not to take over-the-counter prescriptions or any other mass marketed so-called 'medicine' unless it it's really crucial.
So mesmerizing! Loving this new style. They're mixing things up but still sound like themselves, all I could have hoped for from new material. Can't wait for the album!
@@teddsterpinx3666 Last time I checked, I wasn't a "dude". If you pay attention to vocal range, highs and lows, pretty sure Brit wins. I love Best Coast but you are basically comparing the lead singer to Sia or Celine Dion or something, which is ludicrous. Get your ears checked...."dude"
Perfection. The production and edit on this is amazing. The drop at the word "FEEL", yup, that's how it's done. A slow, rhythmic, melodic groove of epicness. Can't wait for the album.
Yeah for the record this song in particular hits very different when driving along the highway or near the beach at 4:00 around late afternoon for her voice does magic🙌😌💙🎸
This song brings me back to this one dream that I had awhile ago, me and him were skateboarding together but I fell back into reality. Many of these songs I love, they sound like something out of Grey's Anatomy or a 2000's show. Much much love for Best Coast.
I am really loving their music. I looked them up after hearing "Something for You" while working at Gap. It's nice that I don't always have to go back in time 30 years to find music I like.
Years of hash running man, and all the old memories to this song and many others I’ve toasted to and encountered to relive the pain I had. To feed my soul. I was a wild child. And I wanna toast to those years!! I need it desperately back
YES. Thank you. Usually I can't deal when a band I love changes musical direction, but you can feel it here, that's an evolution not a change. It reflects so much how I feel now (opposed to how I was feeling when your first albums came out) that I can relate so well and I don't know if I could do that if you "remained behind". I can't wait to hear it all! Really, thank you.
i'm an indian and i listen to this song to feel that power! this makes me feel i can conquer. makes me want to do better , better at everything i do! melancholic and also brings little sadness. its alright and i got this! going to go california drive by a desert at sunset blasting this on speakers with a beer. its feb 13 2021
![Far Caspian - Between Days [Full Ep]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/qm0ru2iBuB0/mqdefault.jpg)
this song feels huge and intimate at the same time. that's quite a feat.
OMG, if you made a video to a Best Coast song, I could die happy! Love your work!
Julia Trimboli I love his videos! I can't get enough of Real Estate "Past Lives" :-) Great idea to do one for this spacey yet intimate song!
Marco Lombardi Is it Hugely jealous, revengeful intolerant also?

Hello. I'm not from CA but I have visited several times. It's an amazing place. :-)
I love cruising through Napas grape vines at sunset in the summer blasting this jam with my windows down best feeling 👌

Her voice gives me the chills.
Gave me goosebumps this did first time I heard it

Give this a listen. th-cam.com/video/gxzMbAMO73k/w-d-xo.html Another great song about California
2024, this song is still baller.
Just came back to it. I agree. Such a vibe

Number 15
Chills bruh
somehow joyful, uplifting yet the lead melody is euphoric & melancholy. very peculiar mix that all works together. I feel tears of happiness when i listen to this.
I've been listening to this song for about 2 years now it never gets old. None of this bands songs get old, but this is my fav.
Really loving this song both lyrically and musically. After moving to California last year, one of the things I love most about this state is taking in the gorgeous sunsets.
no offense to best coast but what is there to like lyrically? dont get offensive im genuinely curious

Just one of the songs that hit you with the amazing sound when you close your eyes. Gives me the chills. I love it
Has a relaxing almost nostalgic vibe to it. Every comforting
'California Nights' is an absolutely beautiful dreamy song which showcases the talent of Best Coast. The cinematography in this video is also well done.
The line “I stay high all the time just to get by” is the story of my life. Oh how a horrible childhood can destroy your life.

Bethany knocked this one out of the ball park! Beautiful...
you guys are on a first-name basis!
I’d love to get Bethany on a first name basis.
Brilliant. I miss California. It's been twelve years since I've been there. Maybe I'll get lucky and visit this year. Thanks Best Coast.
Better have enough money by then for its expensive as hell nowadays mainly due to high gas prices and inflation
Goosebumps all over. Love the scenery as well

Listening to this on a night drive on the 5 freeway and staring at the sky, ocean and buildings. I miss it there. I'll come back someday.
I love the airy soothing sounds of this song.
It’s like she’s lifting my soul to heaven with this track
I love mellow 90's dream pop and this song is amazing
Greatest song ever about California, or any state for that matter. It sends me to a place I want to be.
Very early 90's shoegaze sound which I absolutely love. Reminds me of Slowdive
YES! I think that's why I am so obsessed with it!
What songs would you recommend as a starting point for Slowdive? Always keen to check out bands I haven't heard yet. Cheers.
Huw Guyver Try Altogether, 40 Days, Alison & Blue Skied an' Clear, but I suggest just listening to one of their albums all the way through.
Also you should check out the song 'Hare Tarot Lies' by No Joy if you like this particular Best Coast song.
Cool, thanks. I'll check it out!
Huw Guyver My favorite Slowdive song is "Slouvaki Space Station". My favorite album is "Just For A Day". Check it all out!
How do you even conceptualize a song like this in your mind? I mean, this is so organizationally perfect, harmonically perfect, a total gem. My god, tripping without drugs perfect!
My sister Pepita Redhair is missing 😪 she loves best coast please help us Native Americans the missing natives are getting no recognition
Listening to this song was all it took for my best friend and I to book our flights, then and there, to California (from Syd).
Perfectly captured
I remember going camping & cruising in scenery just like the video on my bike stoned af & listening to this, it's truly magical 💗
This is what good music sounds like!
They say its important to write about what you know or love or passionate about,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Best Coast pulls this off excellently !!! and at least the song isn't about BOOTY CALLS etc etc !!!!
I also have to add that Florida Nights/Sunsets are awesome too.............LOL LOL !!
Oh My God! This Drum and Bass line is unbelievably perfect!

This is what I listened to when leaving texas after we sold our home and headed west to WA state. Best times. Now it sucks but looking back it was the good days. Will relive these again.

Listening to this while smoking a blunt alone in the pool at magic castle in Hollywood was such an experience
This is now a year old. Still in love with it. c:
Love the drum line on this track, hands down my favorite part of the song.
I want to look out onto a California sunset drinking beer listening to this
Along with your favorite strain for the full effect!
Ken TLE agreed!!! Purple haze or Trainwreck.
Dallas Alexander
Good choices! My all around favorite is Blue Dream. :)
idk try out socialswift i heard great things about it, never failed me once!

Amazing production on this track. Just the right amount of reverb on her voice.
Lovely song, so chill.. Sun set and a drink. So gnarly
It's such a melancholy tune, beautiful yet something in the song brings a sadness,
I love it!
I love her voice its so soothing !!!
I'm a fan...this has that 90's dreamy, shoegaze feel......I love it!!!
So mesmerizing! Loving this new style. They're mixing things up but still sound like themselves, all I could have hoped for from new material. Can't wait for the album!

This song just made my day and put a smile upon my face!
Very proud of you guys! Sounding better than ever!
Oh California, you are so beautiful.
She shows off sometimes, but "if you got it flaunt it", right!
The vibe of the video fits the vibe of the song
So excited for this album!!!
until today I discovered this beautiful song, it fills me with calm 🤩
love this song...so chill and beautiful 😍
So sad that I had to discover this song from an Apple Support call while on hold...
But so happy at the same time :)
RavenZero4 I heard it in Burger King
I heard it first on the music choice channel, indies section.
i heard it playing in somebodies speakers at a beach lmaoo
Heard it at a bar while drinking
I love this song so much. I could listen to it over and over!!!
That's facts
I was 12 when I first listened to this song. The feeling of euphoria and nostalgia still hits me. Thank you for being my travel buddy these years.
Years of hash running man, and all the old memories to this song and many others I’ve toasted to and encountered to relive the pain I had. To feed my soul. I was a wild child. And I wanna toast to those years!! I need it desperately back
Oh I miss this genera of music. I want to bring it to Thailand.
This puts me in a good place anywhere, anytime...great song.
Such a dope song!!! One of my favorite songs of this year!!
Wow! What a magnificent song. Takes a person to another place. Dreamy.

Moved west 4 years ago. This song reminds me of that move. Great song!
Trippy and catchy like most of their tunes. I don't care what direction this band goes in, I will follow 👍
I absolutely love this song
I wanna drive to California, with the windows down, driving in the desert, with my boyfriend, & feel the breeze hit me while this song is blasting up.
I'm guessing y'all probably aren't together still? Just statistically speaking
