This is unbelievable.. I've been thinking about making something like this for a long time now not knowing this video existed and now i see this perfect execution of my idea alive! The world is amazing
I can't even begin to comprehend the amount of work Gondry put into this to match up every beat/instrument of the song with a matching structure in the scenery.
its a visual representation of the musical score of the song. the medium is the scenery as viewed from a train. the notes are objects seen from the train. quite simply breathtaking. Gondry is a genius.
A lot of people probably noticed this already but the appearing objects in the video are in perfect sync with segments of the song (drums, synth, and even the volume levels). Genius!
Not just the beat, every single sound is represented by an object, even the heights of the chimneys near the start is significant. And of course the vocals are represented by the people. It's like his Around The World video on a grand scale. Genius.
Notice that the buildings and objects passing by appear exactly in time with the various beats and musical elements of the track! This is truly a work of art.
I've watched this video over and over and over and over. I first heard this song on the radio, it was being played/mixed by Jason Bentley, I fell in love with it. When I saw the video I watched it at least 10 times in one day. THIS SONG IS AWESOME!!
who's thumbs downing this video?? This is one of my favorite music videos ever. It syncs up with the song more than any other music video I've seen, and it's not just a band lip-syncing their music!!
This is one of my favourite music videos, the looping landscapes are so cleverly done - the effect is subtle and totally in keeping with the flow of the song. Love it!
The thing that amazes me most about the video is how dreamlike Gondry managed to make it look. It's not a train: it's a dream train by dream passages, in dream times.
this video reminds me of a visual fruity loops - the samples being added and repeated accordingly, so beautiful. One of my fav music videos. Very beautiful and relaxing.
It's really a visual music piece. It was crafted/repeated/keyframed very specifically. I keep watching looking for more and more visual/audio happening in common.
this is amazing!! the video wasnt set anywere its just an animated loop in time to the music. if you look everything represents a beat or a bit of bass like lamposts or trees or trucks!!
a few month ago I found a video that showed the making of this video! It was astonishing the complexity of the operations required to match audio and video... the scenario is perfectly matched with sound and every object is linked to a specific sound
Every time i hear this song, it takes my head off this world, forgetting everyone and everything, so much to see, so much to do..so little time...Go Chemicalz!
for those that don't know/didn't notice, this video is actually synced with the song, so everything that appears is in context with the beats =) The song is genious!
Awesome ...amazing video !!!! i have more then 5 years looking at and i still can not see how they do the images repetitions...wow...so so so creative and clean edition
I just watched the making of this video. I didnt realise how in detail the video was with the music. Unbelievable. I would also recommend anyone watching this to also watch the making. 10/10
that is crazy!!!! the guy who did that video is genius.... the image is music.... for each bass punch theres a something that represents it....as well as any track of the song.... 5-star vid no doubt !!!
always loved this, with a passion. I mean, its mainly instrumental, but thats what amazing about it. kinda like Toca Me stand up as an amazing song on its own or with the vocals which are added in Toca's Miracle. most songs wouldn't be anything without vocals. its almost euphoric.
I saw these guys at a festival in Denmark. I was so drunk and tired I was on my way home, then they played this song and i suddenly felt like partying all night... and i did!! peace ya'll!
And what makes it even better is that it's not immediately obvious - I don't think I even noticed until about the second or third time that I watched this video.
Ok well for the people who don't get this video, watch the scenery as it goes by. Certain land marks (houses, trees, poles etc.) represent the audio clips, so in the first half, the poles going by are timed with the drum beat. Everything in this video is edited in.
This song always pops up in my mind when I gaze out of the window when riding the bus. I always look at how the sun shines through the bus onto the grass next to the road, how it seems to change height everytime. Then I always think: someone should make a visualisation of that for media player or something, so that it actually matches the music, just like that clip.
Love the idea of this video. Reminds me of Around the World by Daft Punk, where every costume in the clip represents an instrument and the people in those costumes start moving on the rythm and pitch of the song.
I don't think you understand that this music video is the world's grandest drum tab. The effects used in this video are inumerous. it is a masterpiece!
sorry, i don't know if this has been commented on before, but this is not a video of things actually happening in the sense of real time or real life, and then edited, etc. this is a clear example of great animation. i was fooled too, but the scenes all repeat in a very artful way. the sense of motion belies the simplicity of the cutting. bravo
Ive only just noticed the synced up images to the beats in the song!!. god this happens to me all the time on the train to college, i see what fits with my music out of the stuff going past outside.
Masterpiece!!! Look at these all things in video how they occur and disappear with music. This video show structure of attendant music and shows how ordinary things can become an art.
I loved this video the first time I saw It, I loved Around The world when I saw ir for the fist time, Eternal Sunshine too. This guy is a freak and a genius.
I don't normally like music videos, but yeah this song and video pretty much go hand in hand making it what you said: an experience! Certainly amazing!
This is unbelievable.. I've been thinking about making something like this for a long time now not knowing this video existed and now i see this perfect execution of my idea alive!
The world is amazing
best video ever. I remember being a kid and being mind-blown when I realised the concept
I remember being like 9 and hearing this on wrc 2 for the ps2 ahhhh the memories!!!
thats where i first heard it

Probably one of the best vibes in a music video my eyes were ever drawn to.
I've watched this video over and over and over and over. I first heard this song on the radio, it was being played/mixed by Jason Bentley, I fell in love with it. When I saw the video I watched it at least 10 times in one day. THIS SONG IS AWESOME!!

Love it!
coolest video I've ever seen. Every time I watch it I find something different that syncs up to the music. Gondry...you blow me away.
The thing that amazes me most about the video is how dreamlike Gondry managed to make it look. It's not a train: it's a dream train by dream passages, in dream times.
The video's buildings are perfectly coordinated with the music, it's just awesome
I just love how the beats in the song are perfectly matched by objects in the video.
This is directed by Michel Gondri. This men made some of the best music videos ever!
this video reminds me of a visual fruity loops - the samples being added and repeated accordingly, so beautiful. One of my fav music videos. Very beautiful and relaxing.
pure artistic genius I would say, simply one of the best music videos ever.
I love this tune and of course the video is the best ever made...... Michel Gondry I love you!
This video is absoluty brilliant the timing in its perfect. You don't realise until you look at it very closly.
just love how the landscape goest with the beat, simply a masterpiece!
wow this is the one of my best visualizations that i ever seen in a clip and with great music...
It's really a visual music piece. It was crafted/repeated/keyframed very specifically. I keep watching looking for more and more visual/audio happening in common.
such a timeless choon,.. after many years and many times played, this track is still great! CLASSIC
this is amazing!! the video wasnt set anywere its just an animated loop in time to the music. if you look everything represents a beat or a bit of bass like lamposts or trees or trucks!!
a few month ago I found a video that showed the making of this video! It was astonishing the complexity of the operations required to match audio and video... the scenario is perfectly matched with sound and every object is linked to a specific sound
the poles and house, tracks, and such go with the beats and rhythm. this is spajabloues and amazing video iv ever seen in a long time
Every time i hear this song, it takes my head off this world, forgetting everyone and everything, so much to see, so much to do..so little time...Go Chemicalz!
That`s why I love taking the train, I really feel like everything I see fits exactly the song I`m listening. This clip is amazing.
Merci, Michel Gondry for the vidéo clips!!!
for those that don't know/didn't notice, this video is actually synced with the song, so everything that appears is in context with the beats =)
The song is genious!
Awesome ...amazing video !!!! i have more then 5 years looking at and i still can not see how they do the images repetitions...wow...so so so creative and clean edition
This is an extraordinary cleaver video. One of my favourites ever, and one of my favourite Chemical Brothers songs.
I just watched the making of this video. I didnt realise how in detail the video was with the music. Unbelievable. I would also recommend anyone watching this to also watch the making.
10/10

always loved this, with a passion.
I mean, its mainly instrumental, but thats what amazing about it.
kinda like Toca Me stand up as an amazing song on its own or with the vocals which are added in Toca's Miracle.
most songs wouldn't be anything without vocals.
its almost euphoric.
I saw these guys at a festival in Denmark. I was so drunk and tired I was on my way home, then they played this song and i suddenly felt like partying all night... and i did!!
peace ya'll!
It reminds me my daily traveling to Pilsen.
I like the connection between music and the look from the window...
And what makes it even better is that it's not immediately obvious - I don't think I even noticed until about the second or third time that I watched this video.
Amazing song and a great tune to listen to whilst travelling along either road or rail.
Ok well for the people who don't get this video, watch the scenery as it goes by. Certain land marks (houses, trees, poles etc.) represent the audio clips, so in the first half, the poles going by are timed with the drum beat. Everything in this video is edited in.
Michael Gondry -- also did Chemical Brothers "Let Forever Be", amazing technical and artistic achievement a few DECADES ago!
Awesome vid! Its so beautifully syncronised with the music! Cool music with a very cool video accompanying it! Thoroughly enjoyed it!
Phenomenal video man... I watched it like 5 times i still cant believe this.
This song always pops up in my mind when I gaze out of the window when riding the bus. I always look at how the sun shines through the bus onto the grass next to the road, how it seems to change height everytime.
Then I always think: someone should make a visualisation of that for media player or something, so that it actually matches the music, just like that clip.
absolutely perfect. hands down my favorite song. AWESOME!!!
A masterpiece... the song and the clip.
this is such a awesome vid!!!!!!!!!!.

es uno de los mejores videos que he visto, esa forma de mezclar imagenes y el audio ta canijo
this song is so addictive, i listen to it all the time!
one of the best music-videos ever!
Love the idea of this video. Reminds me of Around the World by Daft Punk, where every costume in the clip represents an instrument and the people in those costumes start moving on the rythm and pitch of the song.
have you people not noticed the coreography from the backround to the beats,,,, its amazingly done....
Its got a chilling nostalgic feel to it and I love it
I don't think you understand that this music video is the world's grandest drum tab. The effects used in this video are inumerous. it is a masterpiece!
That video has some crazy effects in it that are subtle enough to really fuck with you.
sorry, i don't know if this has been commented on before, but this is not a video of things actually happening in the sense of real time or real life, and then edited, etc. this is a clear example of great animation. i was fooled too, but the scenes all repeat in a very artful way. the sense of motion belies the simplicity of the cutting. bravo
Perfect music and video combination!

The best music video I had ever seen! It is an art...

Ive only just noticed the synced up images to the beats in the song!!. god this happens to me all the time on the train to college, i see what fits with my music out of the stuff going past outside.
perfect sincronicity music and images i love this video!!!
Yes! It's all timed perfectly, it's genius editing.

Look at these all things in video how they occur

This video show structure of attendant music and shows how ordinary things can become an art.

beautifull... for those who understand this kind of music an clip...superb...more than 10 stars...
I loved this video the first time I saw It, I loved Around The world when I saw ir for the fist time, Eternal Sunshine too. This guy is a freak and a genius.

I don't normally like music videos, but yeah this song and video pretty much go hand in hand making it what you said: an experience! Certainly amazing!
This is very cool.
I've always wanted to film what i was driving by. But i was afraid to make people dizzy.
I adore this song
I was on E last time I heard this, I thought i'd never remember, but I do now! Thanks for posting.
D.
i loved this edition
i love how the backround syncs with the music
All time, Best Driving (Racing,Rallying) Song EVER !!!! Love it !!
"Let Forever Be" is pretty amazing too -- even today, so many years later (I remember being mesmerized the first time I saw it on MuchMusic.)
amazing
i love how the video syncs with the beat
thats sick how everthing in the vid goes along with the music
El montaje de la música con respecto al paisaje es increible!! Nice footage.
