who is here in 2K24 still listening to this masterpiece🤩🤩
Me too 😂🎉
Whoever shot the video is a genius.... The X's out the window on the bridge as the started playing is pure genius.
Yeah, I'm not alone
yesss thats brilliant
I have seen the video a couple of times and just noticed today. Hmm did anyone else notice? YES! Awesome :)
Great spot
Wow! I didn't even notice!
Imagine having a bad day and on ur way back home you get to be on this train and this happens. I would probably end up crying but happily and just feel pure joy and get hope and positivity that everything will be okay and i can be better and do better 🖤
I just saw this video and feel everything you said. Just shedding tears... WOW
We said!
People who were on that specific time and day and came to see this I envy every single person and God how I wish I think I would be over the clouds to witness such a great performance and music
This is the kind of happening that makes you glad to be alive, not to mention glad to be living and commuting in the city. I only rode the rails for three years in the mid-90's from the Village to Bed-Sty via the L to the G and off at Classon Ave. to teach second graders that the alphabet mattered and that the written word is powerful. I'm blessed for having been a part of the cycle of the city...the cycle of the city. An appreciation for life that has never left me, and a love for the students who ruined me for any other population. I've just retired after working in Peekskill, NY for 23 years...a collective 30. The song is MY "intro" into another chapter of life.
+Mega Positive feelings
When corona is over, this starts playing
bro.. .
We Will hear this in the SKY bro
I wanna say that too😭
28 days later
Yes! The soundtrack of our new lives!
even after so many years, hearing the intro gives me the chills
same :D
Is there a vocal voice to the music? I know I heard it before.
@@vanessa12342able as far as I know, no. But correct me if I'm wrong
Sára Hagyó th-cam.com/video/0gx46AlY758/w-d-xo.html found it.
same bro
they really shouldnt do it on the train. people might miss their stop because this is too awesome to be missed
Lol 😂

Its worth missing your stop for this outstanding talent 👬
Well it's better than doing on a plane cause the pilots may turn off their call with workers and started to listen to this masterpiece instead
I would regret to step out boss im sry its gonna be an hour later :D
The fact that the rhythm guitarist’s guitar is literally BROKEN, strings uncut, tells a lot about the enthusiasm and badass attitude of these guys!!
@Dale Macarena as in not cut at the tuners
th-cam.com/video/VllseHmQzds/w-d-xo.html 7 years earlier, same guitar :)
I call em wiskers. I cut mine cause my cats like to fuck with them.
bohemian vibes :D
Hmm maybe I should break my classical guitar too to sound badass
After a few years didnt listen to this masterpiece, i completely forgot about the existence of this song.. Suddenly, i remember about this song and thus Im searching for it including this great cover..
Seeing all the different people from different walks of life smile and come together under the beauty of music. Made me cry. Life is actually really simple, people just wanna be happy, but shitty people try and ruin it. Don't let them. Keep fighting.
Your comment man... You're definitely right
Grant P have a good day🍀🌌✨
Enrico B you too, have a good day✨✨✨
Grant P beautiful reply to what music's all about :)
💯
Who knows how many people they inspired that day and how many people took to playing music after watching them perform?
Music is probably the biggest miracle that has happened to humanity.
Arka Ghosh still inspiring. to this present and
will in future moments.
Not the biggest... but still amazing
I think humanity happened to music :)
Music is the lost emotion of the soul.
are u a joke? do u know a real musician sound like ? this is just some easy guitar picks
It feels like this train is taking me somewhere nice, as it's literally heading towards a city of the sun.

Exactly!! Give me some hope besides all :(
@@marianaalbuquerque49 óia só, uma Brasileira por aqui, quero aprender inglês tbm
@@adriangoncalvesa.c1431 O que me entregou? Hahah
You just know that kid at 2:54 is thinking about picking up a guitar
I think its the notes, the chords chosen and chord progression that resulted in such a powerful melody, it does not have lyrics, there is not a voice singing but it doesn't need one, this song its deep and joyous, spiritual and emotional, it moves you and makes you feel things. It speaks to your heart. Doesn't matter if it's played with a beat up guitar on a subway car. All other noise vanishes. It's the power of MUSIC!
The best songs don't need a voice...they are strong enough on their own
I'm coping this in the comment section of these tracks aswell
Intrepid Joy - Aaron Static
&
Strobe - Dead Mau5
Finally somone who understands music 🙂
Another famous music like this is
No time for caution by Hans Zimmer
That moment at 0:20 when you saw those X's
thanks man!..would have missed that. :)
You're a genius :) !
I really thought I was the only one :P :P
Same
This guy right here uses his brain. Thanks for pointing it out
I love how everybody stayed quiet & listened/watch them play through the whole song, these people are extremely lucky to experience this Live ✨ I’m really happy everyone loved it & even wanted an Encore!!
This was one of the most beautiful things I've seen done musically in a long time. Everything about it was actual creative-genius at it's best.
This is actually a great cover, The XX should totally be proud of this...
chelsea creaser id love to be a famous musician and just get on the train and hear my music played and enjoyed.
michaelhernsin anyone can be one If they pick up an instrument
In today's music scene, you just need a laptop or a pretty face.
They definitely aren’t
never seen people on the train so alive♡♡♡
You definitely haven't been to Rio de Janeiro during Carnival then! xD The metro is a whole party in itself.
step onto an nyc train you'll know what he means lol
Ken Ruan it's probably that people were portraying because it was being recorded with professional cameras
Probably you are a Singaporean 😁
music is the healer ♡
The most powerful version of this jam, this, right here. From the lighting to the people, the bus ride, the instruments that wear their stories like badges of honor, to the iNsAne talent that is you, you and you! Fills me with ALL the feels. 💚✌
Capturing the faces of all walks of life simply enjoying music together as one is what is most beautiful about this video. Music is the one language everyone can understand. What an incredible experience for those passengers whether they realized it or not, especially in today’s world. Wishing good health and love to everyone who reads this comment.
Same to you bro, best wishes from ireland
random disconnected people on a train...not a word was spoken. When they got off everyone felt happy and connected and they smiled...music...
YES
yes♥️
I was your 100th like , hope your doing good brother
Living the moment!
Just spot on!
yes
This song needs to be the soundtrack of my life.
shut ya face ya wonderful person with a magical face!
@@dorrisgonnawreckyou7111 Just why?
@@allroundlad yeah wtf man good question!
@@dorrisgonnawreckyou7111 Ah you're high. Makes sense
@@dorrisgonnawreckyou7111 dude can you get me some weed please!
I love watching everyone smiling and tuning into the moment as one. Beautiful
This is the most purest, epic, goosebumpy thing I've ever had the pleasure listening to on TH-cam.
Outstanding, bravo lads
There's nothing wrong with the dude headbanging people! It's called "feeling the music" definitely amazing musicians...
ROBB ROCKWELL my arse 😂
I do it myself, but even I have to admit that it looks awful
wow if i was on the train no matter where i was going or when I had to be there I would just stay until they were done.......even if i already was late for work..... that was amazing!!
DreamerForever nah! u just say it..I don't buy it man..I bet that if the situation really happen like u said u simply choose to rushing for work..
It’s amazing how many smiles a broken guitar can bring if you ever feel hopeless listen to this
Everyone on that train was blessed to have experience this amazing piece music.
Its amazing how music just uplifts everyone in this video. Music will always bring people together no matter what or who you are. We all need more of this. Brings us together as one even just for a moment.
Victor Munoz Just fell Peace, mind body and Soul..speechless ✌️
The number of dislikes are the number of people who missed their destination
Or who thought the head banging was a bit much
Yessssss
Well Said!!!
I was tempted to dislike when the videos description claims copyright on the song and performance
Music speacks when words cant... 🎶 stunningly peaceful and heartfelt ♥️
it was such a blessing to see so many people smiling through a piece of music.
you guys should be blessed, you guys prove that even the small acts in life can make anybody's day brighter than the sun can. ALL HAIL THE XX!!!!!!!!!!
You can see them smiling. Music gives life to our soul.
Music is probably the most beautiful human invention
David Mirijello true)
Art is how we decorate physical space. Music is how we decorate time
Music is universal
Totally agree.
Am I the only one who cries everytime i listen to this?
You're not alone I cry too idk why is it just to beautiful? We're emotional peeps 😅😭💕
Me three 😳🥺
this video made me really want to play a guitar
Daniel Berentz just do it ;-)
Daniel Berentz it's not easy man but it's fun to play !
Me the drums well i actually play it lol
Daniel Berentz Did you though?
DO IT
Never thought I'd see someone headbang to XX Intro.
I think about this comment everytime I rewatch this video, even if I don't see it. Lol
Literally just wow! There's so much music out there to discover, these guys are intense!
The power of the music brings smile on every face :)
For a little while we are feeling closer to each other, feeling happier. We are brave enough to look in the eye of a stranger and just smile.
Isnt it beautiful?
I bet some people felt that I would have feel :
Right place , right time..
This is the song that plays in my head when there's silence everywhere else. You guys make me smile on a daily basis, good job and good luck to you. Never seen this video til today, awesome stuff.
This shows how much music brings us together. It’s an amazing feeling. I go to this music store every chance I get and play all the instruments I can, and always seem to meet someone new. It’s so cool finding people that may have different music taste, but are still just as into it as you are. It’s so special
Nailed it! 🙌 this and the original do something to my soul. It's so hard to explain... like the realest form of happiness after a spell of depression.
the drum work in this video is severely underrated. LOVE it so much, inspired me to play the drums and this is the first song I learned to play
Such an amazing composition, each of its countless covers are special in their own way. It's magic.
Absolutely beautiful! These guys get what we're doing on this Earth, at least in this particular. Awesome moment in time captured, and shared with the whole world on TH-cam.
I love NYC with all my soul.. and miss it so much, this video breaks my heart.
to be honest i realized this amazing song this year.They did perfect work it’s a masterpiece for me and when i listen i feel better and more positive by the way it is absolutely addictive thank u thank u🤍
This cover is just great. Do more stuff like that people!
I love the era we are in now. Being able to discover music from anywhere, anytime. Thank you for this
So glad I found this, touches my heart. I bet those people on the train had a fantastic day and that baby experienced something super cool.
The setup, the videography, the artists and their passion for music, the people smiling after a long day... Just beautiful!
Thank you for the work and the inspiration!
Peace and love from Mexico ❤️
Holy crap, that was beautiful . I know it was a cover , but they own it now . I still the love the original too. I wish I could buy this cover on I tunes or somewhere . I purchased so many city of the sun songs after that discovery. Humboldt county , Eureka ,California will love this cover. Soon. It is the energy we all want and need . Thank You. New York .
I’ve just found this trio only yesterday and my life will never be the same!! Love City of the Sun !!
This honestly lifts me when I'm down and in a dark place in life there just something about this tune that is inspiring
Turn back to your Creator in those difficult times and remember him also in the good days
I literally adore ♥ them ! Had never seen this awesome video ✨ before but a few years ago I fell in love with their mighty 💎 Sofar Sound performance. They exude so much depth, love and passion when they play. They're mind-blowing! 🙌🏾💎💖
This is hands down the most beautiful cover of this song I’ve ever heard!
Love the absolute chill vibe that comes off this video, so many smiles only happy thoughts pop into the mind 👌
It's incomparable! I already shed tears. How talented they are! Peace and kindness to all!
beautiful ..... look at the joy and the happiness this brigs to people in that short space and time ........ beautiful stuff guys well done
Can't stop listening to this it's amazing and additives
Music makes the world happy all together ♥️ much love for everybody here!!
This song sounds like the anxiety of anticipation building inside my chest on my way home off the road to hold the love of my life... The ever growing warmth of her embrace keeps warming my bones as I get closer to home.... The sight of her soul gazing at me through the soft brown eyes I call home... The sound of her sweet voice when we say nothing at all... The missing piece that filled the void and made me whole... The one I love Rachel Nicole... Forever Always and a Day!!!!
Wow so sweet and romantic.
Awesome experience in NYC to be on subway & have such talented, inspired musicians play for us! I missed this one! Am fan of of City of Sun. These guys are brilliant! Blessings to all!🌈🦋💗
Everything you do, do it with passion. ❤️
I wish we could put a big ❤️ instead of the 👍 i love this cover. We travel thanks to the sound of the guitar it's magic
Hi from 2020. Have been constantly listening to this masterpiece about 3 years already guys are awesome.
Music is everything. Look how people are happy to share this moment together.
That kid at 2:54 looks like he just figured out what he wants to do when he grows up
I thought the same
Love this song!!! been searching for it for a long time, finally find it
The whole package, audience everything. Fantastic!!!
That's the kind of recommendations I want to get from TH-cam...
Sentí por todo mi cuerpo como se me ponían los pelos de punta ❤️ increíble sigan así ! 🙌🏻 alegrando el día de las personas
Mad LOVE for these talented lads.
If I was on this 🚆 I would never forget this moment! 🎉
I've listened to this countless times and it's still a true statement. 💯 Priceless
Amei, adoro essa música, eles mandaram muito bem... top demais ❤👏👏👏
So pure that I can't stop listening 🎶😍
I`m going to say that this is by far the best cover I`ve heard, very well done! I enjoyed hearing it just as much as the original.
The music is the greatest gift that people can give each other for free. Just like a hug, a smile, the love!
💜🎼🎶🎵✌🏻
The joy they all shared on that momento rise a beautiful energy that im sure today whoever witnessed that in that train still brings that joy back and thats is priceless and is the beauty of music!❤2
Love how they change the people to make their day even better
Yes yes yes and yes to this version . I wish I was there when this was filmed.
What an awesome and splendid performance!!! Wishing I had been there to experience it firsthand!
This is one of those moments that just makes a person stand still!! Wow
Whenever I feel too tired to pick up my guitar I watch this and remember that I'm not there yet
This makes my heart happy!
Annarenef STYLE COPY
Mine too..
Bro I find myself coming back to this everyday.
The most underrated tune/ melody/ song of all time x
One does not simply sit still when the xx's intro is being played
I really can't get people saying about the headshaking, this just makes the music more alive and can show how much they are into what they are playing. When you play the guitar you'll aways have that will to just feel it, and this is what they are all doing. Loved it.
un instant unique de partage du quotidien...rempli de bienveillance , de sourires et de vie.
Świetne wykonanie....!!!
Na początek dnia....🎸🎸🎸💓
bravo....... excellent job..... really enjoyed watching it...... loads of love from Pakistan
Damn! You DESTROYED that song!!! That was fire 🔥🔥🔥
Can't believe I'm just now finding y'all!!! Fan for forever and a day!!!
All I can say is wow so so good the Control right the way through the hold jam well done I’m happy I found this can’t wait to hear more
This song is so inspiring and i love it
Muito bom cara, música contagia demais quando é boa
I always think about life when this song comes..
Even when attempt to do something wrong I stop doing it because this song comes to my mind..
Sunt din România, dar este absolut fabulos acest cover!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍Sunete minunate, cred l-am ascultat de 100 ori!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏Amazing!!!
