Holy crap. These are just, wow. this song was released seven years ago. wow.

Nostalgia is such a confusing feeling, I can’t tell if I’m sad or happy or both
it's the feeling of reliving memories by remembering
ikr it's mostly sad tho
IKR
I remember This song in pes 2015 and in need for speed,obs I'm Brazilian
Nostalgia is really weird ,even today I remember the drawings,the movies,the things I used to do when I was a child,ir makes me Sad,and e when I go back to watching the drawings,the movies,etc...it gives me Joey sadness,you Sant to grow up,but after he grows up,he wants to go back to what he was
Me and my best friend use to listen to this everyday. Now he's gone, nobody knows where he went. He just went offline on everything and vanished from every place he usually is at. I miss him sometimes.
wow. not even his family?
Stop writing this on every sad song you fake clown 🤡
Good luck. I hope you find him alive and well.

Lyrics:
[Intro]
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
[Verse 1]
I was left to my own devices
Many days fell away with nothing to show
[Pre-Chorus]
And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills, bringing darkness from above
[Chorus]
But if you close your eyes, does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
And if you close your eyes, does it almost feel like you've been here before?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[Verse 2]
We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
In your pose as the dust settled around us
[Pre-Chorus]
And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills, bringing darkness from above
[Chorus]
But if you close your eyes, does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
And if you close your eyes, does it almost feel like you've been here before?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[Post-Chorus]
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
[Bridge]
Oh, where do we begin, the rubble or our sins?
Oh-oh, where do we begin, the rubble or our sins?
And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love (Oh, where do we begin, the rubble or our sins?)
Grey clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above (Oh, where do we begin, the rubble or our sins?)
[Chorus]
But if you close your eyes, does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
And if you close your eyes, does it almost feel like you've been here before?
Oh, how am I going to be an optimist about this?
How am I going to be an optimist about this?
If you close your eyes, does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
[Outro]
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
Eh, eheu, eheu
This is now a rare case a song does not sing its title in the lyrics.
This guy deserves more likes
I told my bf about a certain undisclosed thing that had the abbreviation "HEHEO" and he sent me this
"If you close your eyes"
2021: Exists
"Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?"
LMAO

Lol
I’m in 2021
Only thing that changed was the year 😂😂 rip to those have died tho
Me at 3am: "I can't sleep."
Song: "But if you close your eyes ..."
😂😂😂
LOL!!!!!!
yep
i can smell ut tik tok cringe ass from here this is nostalgic song for some of us 2000 kids
me at 3am: i am a joke for you?
This song makes me cry. Especially the sentences,
"And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love, grey clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above,
but if you close your eyes, does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?"
You know why? These sentences and the title are about the volcanic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in the Roman city of Pompeii. Over 2,000 people died in this eruption.
Why does it almost feel like nothing changed at all then? Explain that. (I'm asking why the singer asked that question.)
@@FilipinoNoob69420the pyroclastic flow encased a bunch of bodies and buildings in volcanic ash, effectively preserving them
@@Jelly-lc2db yeah, but the singer said "nothing changed at all" can you explain why he said that? What's with the present and the past and about it being the same?
@@FilipinoNoob69420 I think it is what they just said. the bodies were preserved, so they remained like statues, and therefore, they "didn't change at all". I might be wrong though.
@@FilipinoNoob69420the singer said "but if u close ur eyes does it almost feel like nothing changed at all" because he ment to say that if grew up in that city u can close ur eves and remember all of your memories from that city like nothing is changed.
April 2024 here ..woke up this morning with this song playing in my head

2019: that song in need for speed rivals
2020: That disappearing country meme song
Is 2021
@@katykat9017 well the meme became popular in 2020
not to ruin the joke or anything but it was a remix in the game
@@skylancerALT yeah it was a remix not the actual song
nice 2021 comment
Why does this song give me a sense of nostalgia...?
Peabody and sherman?
Because it is nostalgic dont want to grow up..
Because this is one of the best songs to exist which now is very rare
Ross 1616 Well... Because you heard it when you were younger and most likely happier, and nostalgia is a sentimentality for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal associations.
Because this is an older song
“Grey clouds roll over the hills, bring darkness from above”
I never really noticed how deep that line is when thinking about it deeply.
It’s almost about 9/11
@@ethankunabotketh9893You could say that.
@@ethankunabotketh9893 no its about the Roman city Pompeii, like the name of the song, Pompeii was destroyed by Mount Vesuvius erupting "Grey clouds roll over the hill" volcanic ash, ain't no hills in New York. Why would a band from the UK make a song about 9/11, nearly 13 years after it happened, people just keep putting this song over footage from 9/11.
I fits in perfectly with Pompeii Tragedy aswell as 9/11
But if you close your eyes doesn’t it feel like nothing changed at all?
9/11
When this came out I was homeless, on drugs, and then jail. I now have a house, job, and husband. This song and “Clover Cage - In the Moment” are the two songs that helped get rid of my depression. I just want to send love to everyone and I want everyone to know things will get better. We are in this together..I love you 💝
We all gonna make it bros!!! Glad u made it ❤
bro why do i always see this comment where is says "When this came out I was homeless, on drugs, and then jail bla bla bla" and its always any song and some clover cage song and why is it everywhere?? 💀
