It was winter of 2007-8 and I was listening to this song while standing up and moving my infant son around trying to get him to sleep. I remember thinking about his future and dreading the day he would be leaving. By the time the song ended, he was asleep. I have listened to this song in the years since and it has always haunted me and made me appreciate that time with him. I just came across this video again and now my son will be graduating from high school this year. Time is ruthless, but I am always grateful for that moment and for this song being its soundtrack.
Why Am I crying listening to this? Brings back Fully Flared and the times I was skating everyday dreaming of a life of pro skater. One day I was jumping down stairs and my knee buckled. Life has never been the same since that moment.
Damn man I feel you there. Wasn't gonna be pro or anything but just having mad fun. Now years later and my body is broken and I'm struggling as a single dad. Great memories but always remember the good times!
@@TheEdmonds55 he already is mate. I'm putting the wheels back on soon I know I can't go hard but the freedom I'm God I miss that freedom. Thanks friend hope great things happen for you
I was at a party in Beijing, China and some dude told me to check out Arcade Fire and I went home and checked it out and it was this song. I couldn't believe this music was possible.
i was listening to this when my dad announced that his cancer had come back. it occurred to me then, that it may be about venturing into the afterlife..i cried hard and listened om repeat after that. imagine a marching band accompanying you GLEEFULLY into heaven??
Glad I’m not the only one that gets emotional from this song. I look back at my youth and this saddens me that I’m older, but that doesn’t mean I still can’t enjoy life; even skating
In that scene in the pub tho, it said it was 2006, and this song was released in 2007. But… the film was so good, and the track so good, who cares! What is strange is that the song was apparently recorded in 2006, released in 2007, but they were playing it live in 2005.
This brings back so many memories. I legitimately got emotional listening to this song again. Incredible track that I listened to on repeat for months when I was a kid.
fully flared, Lakai, mike mo capaldi, song " no cars go" ! esta canción es un himno para todos aquellos que crecimos con el skate, una bendita bendición *.*
Same here. Someone said Of monsters and Men sounded like Arcade Fire, so I searched them up and this and "Wake Up" were the first two to pop up. Tried both, was hooked.
Same here. Heard this song on a podcast back in ‘07 and I’ve been a fan ever since. Still need to see them live though...who knows when that opportunity will come again...
I've associated this song with a certain period of my life, making it very important for me. I always feel nostalgic when listening to it, and I reminisce of those years. It's truly one of the greatest songs of Arcade Fire. Thank you for uploading it.
Everytime I listen to this song in minute 3:42 I can not stop crying, its so beautiful, so many memories, so many things I would like to live, so many emotions. Thank you Arcade Fire!! Greetings from Costa Rica
I have a confession. I downloaded this album as an early 20 something and disrespect it. It is clear to me now that I was not emotionally and psychologically mature enough to hear and understand your sound and music. I feel like an idiot. Your music is fucking gorgeous. On this day spotify pulled this song and I've been having it on repeat more than 50x now. Thank you so much for your creativity. Long may you continue.
Tant d'années que j'ai découvert cet album qui avait été une claque. Et pour la première fois, je traduis les textes. Et pour la seconde fois, je découvre l'album. Magique. Quel œuvre. Quelle époque d'Arcade Fire ! Quelle chanson ! Vive l'enfance ! Vive les rêves ! Vive la lumière !
This one reminds me of the one that got away. I still low-key love her, I still high-key love this record. It's like a song filled with crescendos and climaxes.
i was introduced to this band by a friend while I was at grad school, living far away from my family in a foreign country, those three Albums Funeral, Neon Bible and The Suburbs where basically the soundtrack of my life through those turbulent 7 years of loneliness and permanent streess that grad school was for me
2017?! I was there too 😁. What a time! The city was so alive that weekend. After AF finished their set my friend and I kicked off the whole crowd singing the melody of Wake Up as we walked back through Grant Park ☺️
My dad just recommended this group to me and especially this song because we have very similar tastes and he said that I might like it Just by listening to the first 30 seconds I already loved it and I'm going to start listening to more of this group ,,, I will thank my dad
Same for me, only it was the suburbs. I ended up listening to the whole album and absolutely fricken loved it. Ive listened to all their other stuff over the last couple years and loved every minute of it. I would HIGHLY recommend listening to the Suburbs album if you haven't already
@@obi-wankenobi8878 oh man, I loved the suburbs!! the first time I heard 'half light I' I thought it was magical and it stuck in my head immediately, the whole album felt so magical.
Remember when you released Rebellion (Lies) so catchy I would walk around banging a pretend tom drum and then Power Out. Which became my favourite. I'm honestly not very familiar with your discography, when I heard this song for the first time it hits me in a way where I stand in awe of your musical presence. As far as alternative rock goes or indie music. It's funny what imagination can do, or those aspirations how you imagined something, and then. When it comes to pass its hard to even believe it exists within that scope of reality.
I’m also one of the subset of people who only know this song cause of Mike Mo in Fully Flared. It was always a skateboarder’s dream to find a place where there’s no cars.
There was an Arcade Fire song I was absolutely obsessed with maybe 4-5 years ago and for the life of me I can't remember the name so I'm starting from the newest and working down on their stuff
Dad just went back into a mental institute after trying to kill himself again. He thought we were trying to poison him and he stopped taking his medication. He was flagged down in the street delirious and aggressive, and he fought off 10 police officers before being detained. He introduced me to this band, and right now it feels like its all I have of him left. He's not himself, he feels like a stranger.
I've dealt with mental illness in my family as well. I feel for you. I hope he gets the help he needs and things can return to normal for you and him. Peace.
This song is your connection with your father that can never be replaced. Enjoy the beauty of the song as it will always be something you will share with him regardless of how his journey plays out. Bitter to be sure. God bless.
Hang in there! My father is paranoid schizophrenic and it sucks but i know God is using it for a greater good. I hope your dad is able to stabilize soon and God bless you and your fam :)
I first heard this on a montage of the first episode of Series 10 of Top Gear, so I often associate it with driving music. Indeed if I find myself driving on the highway with this song playing, I start putting my foot down at 3:42 and go as fast as I dare.
I dream of having this song set in the final scene for a fantasy / sci-fi series I started writing in the 5th grade and still didn't finish one book lol... One day, one day, maybe. I won't spoil it, but let's just hint that this final scene involves space and the fate of the entire universe 🙃
@@PhilJuddEraSplitEnz I'm writing multiple books, poetry collections, scripts for TV and cinema all at once actually. Right now I'm focused in my finished, yet unedited first book, hopefully to be published in Hebrew in 2021 and translated to English. Step by step... 🙃
I always felt like this song wasn’t about sleeping, at least to me anyway. it was more about the act of dreaming and running at that dream. He’s telling you no matter who you are follow your dreams because we ll all sleep in the end. So you might as well live your life running face first at those dreams. You don’t need an age to dream every human has one. Never too early or too late.
Lakai Fully Flared, Mike Mo Capaldi part. 2007. Golden years of my life. This song brings all that good shit back.
Yep 🤌
For reals big dawg 🤙🔥

Lovely
I hope you both try to get his son to sleep one night ❤
This and Ready To Start always make me feel like I'm in a movie.
came for those songs today after five years of not listening to this band. honestly top tier, they are timeless.
😊
This song would have m fit nicely in Donny Darko!
Same ❤
Keep that to yourself smh... bruh

Heard it while back… came back after watching Saltburn on Amazon today …amazing song ❤
Thanks for reminding us about this gem Saltburn!
Glad I’m not the only one that gets emotional from this song. I look back at my youth and this saddens me that I’m older, but that doesn’t mean I still can’t enjoy life; even skating
At that time we had only a place where no cars go
Thanks Saltburn for bringing back this amazing song into my life again
In that scene in the pub tho, it said it was 2006, and this song was released in 2007.

I can’t remember that scene .. can you please share ?

Rip the good ol days , man life was sweet
This song brings back the memories of skateboarding with friends after high school.
Fully flared baby!!!!!
Mike mo 🙌
That Nollie Tre Mike Mo did in fully flared looks lit.
Mike Mo's part in Lakai's Fully Flared brought me here
My man!! His part bought me here 10 years ago haha
@@theissofkaltenbrun9043 still wish it was ten years ago man, things we just simple
Here almost 15 years later. One of the best skate vid/song ever, I would watch it 10 times before going to skate
YEESSS
LOVE IT, GUYS!!
This brings back so many memories. I legitimately got emotional listening to this song again. Incredible track that I listened to on repeat for months when I was a kid.
For songs like these is that I am able to feel hope for life again.
fully flared, Lakai, mike mo capaldi, song " no cars go" ! esta canción es un himno para todos aquellos que crecimos con el skate, una bendita bendición *.*
It's just one of those songs that stick with us. Ties to a certain memory, and triggers that nostalgic feeling.
Simply one of the best songs ever. Arcade Fire made a lot, but just for this song, they are at the Olympus of Music.
“Between the click of the light and the start of the dream...” as a mood.
Love this song. Love Arcade Fire ❤️
Heard this in the background in saltburn, a huge nostalgic wave shot me !!
Love listening to Arcade Fire, first discovered them in 2004...love this song from 2007 good times.
proud to be 19 & actually know this song 🤍🤍🤍
thanks for playing it on tv dad, love ur teenage music taste so much.

I really love this band.

Está canción tiene el superpoder de llevarme hasta 2007 sin necesidad de levantarme del asiento ❤
I can't believe I got to see this live in Chicago! Amazing! Lollapalooza ❤
2017?! I was there too 😁. What a time! The city was so alive that weekend. After AF finished their set my friend and I kicked off the whole crowd singing the melody of Wake Up as we walked back through Grant Park ☺️
I feel honored to have found this song
Epic!!
Whenever need a medicene i hear this and let's go!!
How can you Not feel it? How is does this not embrace your soul?
Will I ever feel the same, knowing what he did?
@@jauxro😢
I was connected to the song from the first moment I heard it. This has not happened to me for a long time. I love!
Simply amazing 😍
it never gets old

Sigue sonando tan bello como la primer vez

We need to find that place !!! 😍
Or create it
My favourite song of all time!
Good choice.😌
This is a one-off, very unique.
I don't know why you upload this now but thanks for this masterpiece ❤️
Honestly, this feels cinematic. In a good way of course.
This brings me back to a chicken bud ride from Belize to the Guatemala border on a drizzly day on my birthday many years ago
between the click of the light and the start of a dream.. oh my god this song never fails to hit me hard right in the heart..
To everyone here. I love you for listening this song
Same my friend :)
I love you too
I’m also one of the subset of people who only know this song cause of Mike Mo in Fully Flared.
It was always a skateboarder’s dream to find a place where there’s no cars.
Beautiful addition to the slabs bij danny!!
why would someone come and dislike this lol
they have a 2 drummer maximum for their band requirements
Someone whose car actually goes
because theyre cooler than you im assuming
Honestly I don’t really get why the dislike button is a thing, most videos have way more likes anyway.
@@larissaf.84 Congrats, dislikes are no longer a real thing
Masterpiece. 😌
This is the stuff that soundtracks your life , badass
This whole song gives me the good kind of body shivers, and always sounds amazing live. Let's go!
I love it brings back good memories
Scoprii questa canzone nel periodo in cui ho saputo che sarei diventato papà, bei ricordi.
Grande band
First track I heard that included that "Hey" part/sample (1:48) that later on everybody ended up using in music production
I love this whole album! Thank you for suggesting this :)
You're music helped me get off heroin thankyou.
One of my favorites 🤟🏻🤟🏻
Pyramid of wild cherry pepsi, Pizza Hut, and Xbox360 memories flood back because of this song.
I discovered an Arcade Fire song that brought me to tears 5 years ago. I just rediscovered it tonight.
I remember listenin to this masterpiece, sitting in the internet café, while doin my homework... Nostalgia.
There was an Arcade Fire song I was absolutely obsessed with maybe 4-5 years ago and for the life of me I can't remember the name so I'm starting from the newest and working down on their stuff
Did you ever find it?
Have you already find it?
You meant "Tunnels" right?😌
Did you find it?
Beautiful ❤️
Best tune ever 🤟
Thank you for doing this!!!
Great song!!!!!❤👍
Love the intro. An overlooked Arcade Fire song.
Love this song so much....it's as simple as that x
If you look into the liner notes of the actual physical disc, there are birthdates for people arcade fire thought might be the one to save us all.
