I got the chance to play with Tim 3 times in my life. One time, we went to and after party, he missed his flight because we partied to much so he didn't wake up in time for the flight. I hooked him up with a cute girl that night, but nothing happened, he was very respectful, even though the girl was all over him. He didn't know how famous he was or he was to young lol. (2009) He came over to my house and listened to my shitty beats, and told me "Make sure you can hear the kick". That was almost 10 years ago. I hear that every time now I make a beat. I miss you Tim. Thank you for everything. See you on the other side brother.
under t Honestly, do you have to be so rude to someone just because they shared a positive experience with a celebrity? At least he/she didn’t disclose anything too personal, unlike Bergling’s most recent girlfriend.
@under t I used to go by "Loco Aragon" back in the day... I mean were talking 2009. I made this remix back in the day and it kinda went viral that summer. If you know anything about House Music you would know who Erick Morillo is. Here he is playing my track at Pacha, Ibiza. Roger Sanchez also featured it in his podcast. Axwell played it to if I'm no mistaken, and many others... but to answer your question I'm nobody. th-cam.com/video/HtcBVHkN4sE/w-d-xo.html
Tim's death is so heart breaking even more so when watching his documentary, where he's telling his managers those around him he needed break a break he couldn't take any more and they didn't take notice they just signed him up for more gigs. If they got him help from the very beginning instead of pushing him when he asked for help he might just be here. Rest in peace thank you for the music but your life life was worth more
@@techstyle123 yeah and he was in hospital telling them he needs to stop because it's not hospital well and then in the car as he's leaving him saying he is sick he needs help and they said nothing but oh we need you to do all these phone interviews etc not caring he was screaming he needed help.

What people may not realize is, those moments of euphoria are simply because people realize that they are about to end it, that they won't be dealing with what happens to be bothering them at the time. Just because someone seems to be doing much better, if you see that they all of a sudden seem to find happiness, you may want to look and listen even closer.
None of us knew him and weren't in his life you can only look from the outside. I think that's why he did the documentary so we could see what it was really like for him. Lack of sleep, poor diet, constant travel across time zones, working non stop, alcohol overuse, illness, addiction to painkillers, depression and anxiety. It's all there but if everyone was doing the same thing they took no notice. You can see him unravel probably from 2013 when he first got sick. This was when he should have taken a step back and they should have helped him. But no "I kept going". He realised later himself that he should have taken at least 6 months out not gone straight back to work. But he couldn't say no to them - bit difficult if its you against them and they're all advising the opposite. He was too young to argue.
True, their are few who get out when they can. It’s got to be a tough decision to walk away from something you love so much, but has turned into a constant headache. They have great success, but no time to enjoy it. Financially he probably was set and could have just walked, but with that so many others lose their jobs and that in itself would depress you, you feel locked in.
Wow, thankyou for sharing that, what a phenomenon! Going from feeling absolutely captivated in your mind, it does make sense somebody would experience euphoria because they feel they are promised freedom soon. I've never come across this before and its devestating but also fascinating what the human mind does to us. That will definately keep me on look out for anyone who may be displaying signs of euphoria like that after being clealy down for a period of time. It almost disgusts me how little the world is aware of mental health. :(
Nicely put. Indeed the end becomes the resolution/an easily attainable goal and perhaps marks a date in the diary when the pain will end? If you know someone whoo is struggling especially if they have gone 'Full Turtle' as I call it, be the best friend you can and if its you doing the turtle (gone way deep into your shell, where you feel TERRIBLE but strangely safe) do not be afraid to admit that you can't see the light/a way out on your own! There is much joy to be had in life... many Eureka moments to come, all you have to do is find someone who can help you put all that stuff back in the right boxes and put the trash in the bin where it belongs and never look back. What is worrying you today, can become something you can merely step over tomorrow. Now either go drag that person out for a coffee, or BEG to be dragged out yourself.... Pride before a fall. One day you will laugh about this. ☕️☕️
he was the first real edm artist i ever really heard. i used to listen to him before my basketball practices to get pumped up. such a legend. live on Tim, we love you!
Tim was a musical genius. It's absolutely tragic that noone properly acknowledged the stuggle he was going through. His music and spirit will live on forever.

Miserable people often love to spread their misery. It seems to me that their time would be better spent trying to find peace, or even happiness. There are always going to be rude, hateful people in the background of life though. All we can do is to try to just leave them to themselves if they don't want to join those of us on the happier end of the spectrum!
@@gabrieladerre2862 exactly..misery does love company,but those of us who choose to live in happiness and love need to ignore those people..let them be alone in their misery and hatefulness
Anxiety is like torture. Seeking help doesn't make you weak but a fighter. It's like depression, you have no idea of the suffering until you live through it. Sometimes you don't know what to call it, you just feel miserable. Seek help in the best possible way available to you.
@@mariamail0303 Like never being happy, constantly struggling to do everyday tasks, going through really horrible emotions you can't name, feeling like you are going to die toomorrow, and that your life will be suffering, and you will die a horrible death, like really believing that. Or wanting to die, but having to tolerate existing. You can't properly understand it without living through it though, and I hope you never have been through it and that you never will go through it.
Thank you for saying “available to you” because not everyone has the resources to get adequate mental health support it’s so sad. This guy was an amazing musician he used his platform to spread meaning not just meaningless club hits and for that he should be remembered there aren’t enough guys who use their platform in that way!
I remember hearing “wake me up” when I lived in a very shitty apartment, being SO depressed, but hearing that song gave me a sense of levity and hope that I could not have conjured on my own. It helped me see the beauty around me and pause with a sense of gratitude. Things have changed since then and I’m grateful for that song to this day. Life is a blessing no matter what circumstance get thrown at you. Rise above and FEEL IT ALL. Never be too busy to stop and appreciate the life you are given. Love with reckless abandon- not just others but yourself as well. Your gifts could be the hope others need to experience to go on with their own life. Without you the world isn’t the same. Let God decide when it is your time to go Home.
@Meg B thanks Meg for your beautiful uplifting words. I am at your situation and feel so unmotivated but I get up every day but not enough to cross things off my list of goals and time is decaying away. How did you lift yourself from such a dire state where there is such a deep drought of hope? Many thx if you do respond back. :))☘️⭐️😊💫
Call out the stress he was subjected to and the unprofessional conduct the music industry puts producers like him through. This should not have happened in the first place :[
I know.. All he really wanted to do was produce music, he didn't ever want to be on stage because of anxiety because WOW. Anxiety is a very suffocating feeling and takes a huge toll on your body. And the fact that they had so many shows on his hectic schedule.. yeah hes not going to feel well physically and mentally. I wish people would take mental illnesses more seriously, especially in the workforce. If you think realistically and if you I guess want to keep making money.. then keep your artist alive and happy..
Avicii was my absolute favourite as a child. I remember begging my mum to download his songs on her ipod so I could have my own mini dance parties in the living room. While I didn't know who Tim was, his real name or even his stage name, the way he produced and wrote songs really spoke to me even when I was so young. I'm now 16 and his music still means so much to me. His sound is so unique I've never come across anything like him. I truly believe that his music helped to shape me as a person and my outlook on life. He had such a positive impact on me and I'll forever be grateful for his music. I miss him. Rest in peace Tim, you really are a legend ❤
I’m 12 and obsessed with him and I envy you for being able to know about him before he died. I was alive when he was but I’d never actually knew about him, though I never knew Avicii, I always loved wake me up my whole life.
As a mental health professional, I found this report frustratingly vague. Did Tim suffer from meaninglessness? Disconnection? Self-loathing? Why did he feels so trapped in his circumstances? Stories about suicide and despair that frustrate our empathy with vagueness fail in their responsibility to create understanding, connection, and informed intervention.
I highly recommend the documentary, I believe it’s on Netflix. As a professional you probably could get a larger sense of what was going on from that. I work in community mental health myself, more from an administrative role though, and it broke my heart to watch.
I read from wikipedia that he didnt like the business aspect, why his quote "i want to be remembered for the life i lived, not the money i made". He loved his fans and loved to make music, but couldnt take the stress and pressure of the business.
Omg ppl he was sick and suffering severely physically! The meds the “doctors” put him on caused severe anxiety, this is a side effects, a very nasty side effect, I’m having the same reaction and rue the day I ever sought “help” Tim didn’t want to die, he desperately didn’t want to die he tried everything he could think of before finally feeling hopeless and succumbing, I only wish someone could have told him it was the meds making him feel this way, withdrawal would be hell but he had the money to hide for as long as he needed to, I wish also ppl gave him the freedom to take this time out.
Little Nonni He didnt have the money. It costs a lot to break a contract. He had to keep going until the contracts end and he just couldnt do it. Also he did get clean two times. The meds might have been adding fuel to the fire, but it wasnt what caused it.
Ill never forget you Tim. Your music was the soundtrack to the best years and summers of my life. Your legacy will be celebrated for decades to come. You were a true visionary, musical genius, and beloved entertainer. Miss you everytime i hear your beautiful music and compositions, and always think about the positive impact you've left on the world forever. Love you friend.
RIP Avicii. The concert at the Palladium was one of the best in my life. "Hey Brother" is a special song for me because my little brother passed away and it felt like you wrote it for me. 🙏
His album, Tim.. Speaks volumes. My heart broke listening to it to hear how broken he was in his music showing his feelings he did an amazing job expressing himself through his music.
It's a sad fact that those who commit suicide put up a shield of happiness to hide what they inevitably intend to do. When you are depressed all you want to do is make those around you happy because you want to make sure they never feel how you feel
I feel that the only reason I was able to fall in love with EDM as a genre let alone house music, was because Avicii put such powerful songs out there and songs that related HEAVILY to people. So I just want to thank Tim for give everyone the opportunity to be able to enjoy and listen to such beautiful Melodie’s and beats.
❤️Avicii will always hold a special place in my heart. Tim’s songs were a huge part of my wedding. We ended it with a compilation and jumped into the river. It was one of the happiest moments I’ve ever had. I wish he could have found the help and peace he needed instead of death.
Avicii is in a better place now. If he was back here it wouldn’t be right for both him and us. It’s also our fault since we kept begging for him to keep doing tours but he didn’t want to. We didn’t respect what he wanted.
*Our beloved tim was a seeker, a fragile artistic searching for answers... he could not go on any longer. he wanted to find peace...* Oh my goooooooood I'LL CRY
They filmed Wake Me Up in my hometown of Las Cruces/Mesilla New Mexico and Los Angeles California before they set the fires in California and Covid started. He was probably related to my Swedish side of the family.
Avicii was beloved all around the world. He was ridiculously talented and very, very creative, and if you look at that generation of DJ's, dancers, MC's and EDM creators/players, he really stood out.
Gone too soon, but still remember as one of the greatest. This was extremely touching to watch, understanding that even people close to him weren't able to find what was really going on. Human beings are vulnerable, no one can ever have a 100% happy life, you sometimes got to struggle to proceed forward. R.I.P. to the one and only Tim Bergling "Avicii".
Brisbane, NSW, Australia, GOODLIFE concert 2014 if I remember correctly. I had the honour to see Tim live! He was the closing act and they played “hey brother”. They had the confetti, the 3mtr long streamers, the bright lights, everybody jumping and every single person there was having a blast. I was only 14 & it was my first experience with EDM but it is an incredible memory to have. So much joy. Thank you for that memory Tim.
avicii was so talented, making the songs that he did so early in his career and at a time when edm was really ruled by 2 artists. his music is bar none some of the best ive ever listened to
The incalculable anguish his parents must feel. All the things that were plaguing him were manageable. So much grief and anguish people experience can be helped. What a tragic ending for his family to have to live with. I feel so bad for them.
There's NO OTHER ONE, TIM! you made such a wave in music, literally no one can fill the void that losing you left. We appreciate your art, and we miss you still ❤
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 He helped me discover EDM even before wake me up but wake me up was that song for me. 😭😭😭😭😭 I wish I would have seen him live once but In know he will stay with me forever because he changed my life 💜
You're such a great artist can't nobody take that away from you you do such very good music while you did do the music and your music will live on forever tim you are good man you rest in peace big man you're not going to suffer no more but let your music live on forever RIP
Holding this much depression & emotions by yourself is very hard when all that emotions explode a one day there is no turning back it is all already over. Rest in Peace Tim.
Even 3 years after this video, its still a shame that songs like "Island", "Dun Ditty" or Our Love aren´t released. (If you didn´t knew, there are a lot of new songs that got leaked.) Just search "Avicii Leaks" and you`ll find them.
2022 here and I still think about Tim a lot. I wish I could have known him. Maybe in the afterlife Avicii will be throwing a rave. We’ve never found another one, Tim.
His lyrics always meant a lot to me (and I'm sure to many others) each song reminds me of another memory or helped me get through something. I loved looking up to lyrics and always hung of to every word. Thankyou Tim/Avicii ❤
I’m really going to miss him making music. But, there’s so many amazing songs that I will certainly continue to play for years to come. God bless you Tim x
How about advising people to seek professional help regarding mental health, don't just advise people to call a number for momentary suicide prevention. Most struggling with the idea of suicide are not going to call that damn number. It's like kicking the can down the road instead of trying to fix the underlying issues.
I've called the 800 numbers (for veterans and civilians) and EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. a bitchy-cunt answered the line and they were really combative towards me. When I sought out a therapist (thru the VA) she couldn't seem stay awake during my 30-minute sessions with her!!!!!
I myself have a serious mental condition & I need help. There isnt any. My doctor, family & friends dismiss me, the waiting lists for affordable treatment is months long. Theres nothing out there to help until it's too late & everyone shares a go fund me to help pay for your funeral & say shit like I'm always here for a chat if anyone needs me. Not you're not. It takes successful suicide for people to realise what youd been saying all along.
I struggled with it and at my lowest point where I almost brought myself to it, I never called that number. All it takes is a place to recover where you're with people that care about you that lift you up. For me, a sense of belonging got me out of that dark place. It took moving to a new country where I have a clean slate, no debt, medical is free, schooling is free, workers are paid living wages, and people are generally happy. Even the thought of going back to the US gives me a ridiculous amount of anxiety since I was completely miserable there. I don't know what will pull you out of it, but emigrating did it for me.
It hurts so much even now. I tear up and sometimes wind up dropping those tears listening to his music and watching him in videos. I dont know why. It just makes me ache inside. I wonder,does he know that he touched us so deeply?
I usually skip watch videos skipping to more interesting parts of videos, this man deserves my full attention for this video, he really is an inspiration.
I loved Avcii(Tim),his music had those wonderful infectious beats and I thought the lyrics were really profound..I had seriously considered suicide a few years ago when my beloved grandma had to go into a nursing home..I was totally lost and felt so alone..I had it all planned out,what I was going to do,when I was going to do it,all of that I did not want to live anymore,this life was too hard..but one day I found a day old kitten under a bush in my grandma's front yard and took care of her and decided to keep her..at that moment all thoughts of suicide melted away..she is now a happy and healthy 2 year old..I rescued her,but she saved me..she is the light of my life 😺 (she is the one on my profile pic as a baby)
His music found me in my darkest days... His Beats brought life back again... His memory will always be a huge part of my Journey... Thank You ... RIP Avicii
I am one of Tim’s biggest fans. Listened to Snus, Jailbat, My Feelings for You. What isn’t talked about is his song - Another Day. What this song symbolized, and how Tim wanted to expose the stories behind this song. Of course the mainstream media ABC didn’t touch upon this. Forever in our hearts, Tim. We will shine light on what you wanted to expose.
I lost a beautiful friend to suicide, the first death I've ever experienced in life was a suicide, my best friend for years fought himself and every day I waited for that phone call. To be left in the wake of a suidide is indescribable (like if you also know this feeling). I often times refer to people who give off distress vibes in that regard as people who look or act "creepy happy". The term "creepy happy" to me just describes that one person who is the life of the party, super outgoing and compassionate, these people are often very kind and give off a positive wave of energy that everyone loves to be around. However, when you're around these vibrant individuals, you may start to notice something different, perhaps it's how they sit, or how their eyes look completely empty some days as they compliment a plastered smile. These little glitches are very subtle, in fact they are so subtle that they can consume you before anyone else has a chance to call for help.
Something about his music stuck out to me and really opened me up to a lot of new and house styles of EDM and I believed he influenced and evolved EDM from a lot of the old more techno, trance and house to his style and the melody, the lift, the acoustic integration, but not just that it was done... it was how he did it, so finely tuned. I never listened to his songs and thought "it could've used this" but more like "Wow, he did this". On top of the fact, lyrically his music had a lot of parallels to Chester Bennington with Linkin Park, the music is hype, motivating, energizing, uplifting, moving and encouraging while the lyrics are quite somber, sad and deeper in meaning. It hurts me because, I was really starting to get out in this world, live on my own, started to obsess with his music and go to festivals, then within about year or so, he's gone. Not to mention he was in his artistic prime, if alive today, he'd have brought so much more joy, hope, unity and peace in this world no doubt. His music and character was so very wholesome and empathetic.
TIM: “When I Die, I wanna be remember for the life I lived, not the money I made”
"Live a life you will remember."
This is literally the point of life. It's about the life you live and not how much money you earn.
He was so honest
Huh? Did he really say that? It doesn't really make sense to an American. Maybe cause we would never say something like that.
True wisdom 👍

Anxiety is like torture. Seeking help doesn't make you weak but a fighter. It's like depression, you have no idea of the suffering until you live through it. Sometimes you don't know what to call it, you just feel miserable. Seek help in the best possible way available to you.
You feel miserable ....like in what ways..???
But he was murder. He died just When he exposed pedofilia in For a better day. He knew about Pizzagate.
@@mariamail0303 Like never being happy, constantly struggling to do everyday tasks, going through really horrible emotions you can't name, feeling like you are going to die toomorrow, and that your life will be suffering, and you will die a horrible death, like really believing that. Or wanting to die, but having to tolerate existing.
You can't properly understand it without living through it though, and I hope you never have been through it and that you never will go through it.
@@janza9178 EXACTLY! SPOT ON!
Thank you for saying “available to you” because not everyone has the resources to get adequate mental health support it’s so sad. This guy was an amazing musician he used his platform to spread meaning not just meaningless club hits and for that he should be remembered there aren’t enough guys who use their platform in that way!
I remember hearing “wake me up” when I lived in a very shitty apartment, being SO depressed, but hearing that song gave me a sense of levity and hope that I could not have conjured on my own. It helped me see the beauty around me and pause with a sense of gratitude. Things have changed since then and I’m grateful for that song to this day. Life is a blessing no matter what circumstance get thrown at you. Rise above and FEEL IT ALL. Never be too busy to stop and appreciate the life you are given. Love with reckless abandon- not just others but yourself as well. Your gifts could be the hope others need to experience to go on with their own life. Without you the world isn’t the same. Let God decide when it is your time to go Home.
Thank you 🥺❤️
Thanks for this
That was beautiful.
@Meg B thanks Meg for your beautiful uplifting words. I am at your situation and feel so unmotivated but I get up every day but not enough to cross things off my list of goals and time is decaying away. How did you lift yourself from such a dire state where there is such a deep drought of hope? Many thx if you do respond back. :))☘️⭐️😊💫
Hey brother saved me from saying goodbye.... i still listen when im down.
I am not a fan of EDM, but Tim was a complete genius, his death truly was a tragedy.
I miss this man so much. Music will never be the same without Avicii. RIP Avicii
Can we stop calling him "a DJ"... I KNOW he was more than that..we all do. RIP Tim
He was a legend
He was a music producer, not DJ
@@jujasname he was a music producer and even a DJ
@@grifthmusic yes but he didn't liked DJing as much
Yeah, he was truly an artist
Call out the stress he was subjected to and the unprofessional conduct the music industry puts producers like him through. This should not have happened in the first place :[
They are all blood suckers. Only care about money.
I know.. All he really wanted to do was produce music, he didn't ever want to be on stage because of anxiety because WOW. Anxiety is a very suffocating feeling and takes a huge toll on your body. And the fact that they had so many shows on his hectic schedule.. yeah hes not going to feel well physically and mentally. I wish people would take mental illnesses more seriously, especially in the workforce. If you think realistically and if you I guess want to keep making money.. then keep your artist alive and happy..
Avicii was my absolute favourite as a child. I remember begging my mum to download his songs on her ipod so I could have my own mini dance parties in the living room. While I didn't know who Tim was, his real name or even his stage name, the way he produced and wrote songs really spoke to me even when I was so young. I'm now 16 and his music still means so much to me. His sound is so unique I've never come across anything like him. I truly believe that his music helped to shape me as a person and my outlook on life. He had such a positive impact on me and I'll forever be grateful for his music. I miss him. Rest in peace Tim, you really are a legend ❤
I’m 12 and obsessed with him and I envy you for being able to know about him before he died. I was alive when he was but I’d never actually knew about him, though I never knew Avicii, I always loved wake me up my whole life.
I can not imagine the pain his family still going to this date... God Bless them.
As a mental health professional, I found this report frustratingly vague. Did Tim suffer from meaninglessness? Disconnection? Self-loathing? Why did he feels so trapped in his circumstances? Stories about suicide and despair that frustrate our empathy with vagueness fail in their responsibility to create understanding, connection, and informed intervention.
I highly recommend the documentary, I believe it’s on Netflix. As a professional you probably could get a larger sense of what was going on from that. I work in community mental health myself, more from an administrative role though, and it broke my heart to watch.
he got killed for this video:th-cam.com/video/Xq-knHXSKYY/w-d-xo.html
I read from wikipedia that he didnt like the business aspect, why his quote "i want to be remembered for the life i lived, not the money i made".
He loved his fans and loved to make music, but couldnt take the stress and pressure of the business.
Omg ppl he was sick and suffering severely physically! The meds the “doctors” put him on caused severe anxiety, this is a side effects, a very nasty side effect, I’m having the same reaction and rue the day I ever sought “help” Tim didn’t want to die, he desperately didn’t want to die he tried everything he could think of before finally feeling hopeless and succumbing, I only wish someone could have told him it was the meds making him feel this way, withdrawal would be hell but he had the money to hide for as long as he needed to, I wish also ppl gave him the freedom to take this time out.
Little Nonni He didnt have the money. It costs a lot to break a contract. He had to keep going until the contracts end and he just couldnt do it.
Also he did get clean two times. The meds might have been adding fuel to the fire, but it wasnt what caused it.
Ill never forget you Tim. Your music was the soundtrack to the best years and summers of my life. Your legacy will be celebrated for decades to come. You were a true visionary, musical genius, and beloved entertainer. Miss you everytime i hear your beautiful music and compositions, and always think about the positive impact you've left on the world forever. Love you friend.
He's a musician
He's a producer
He's a legend
He is,
AVICII
Gone but never forgotten❤
@@EraldoPiccione True.
He was a human being.
Above all those accolades and titles.
RIP Avicii. The concert at the Palladium was one of the best in my life. "Hey Brother" is a special song for me because my little brother passed away and it felt like you wrote it for me. 🙏
His album, Tim.. Speaks volumes.
My heart broke listening to it to hear how broken he was in his music showing his feelings he did an amazing job expressing himself through his music.
◢ ◤ RIP Tim 😇 we will never forget you because of your beautiful music. Love and peace to his family & friends. Such a loss 😢💔
*I still can't believe this is real. That he's dead*
pure garbage didn’t even know he was dead
Is it comforting if I say that in a parallel universe he's still alive
Same 😔
Legends never die
@@atourist9135 me either
It's a sad fact that those who commit suicide put up a shield of happiness to hide what they inevitably intend to do. When you are depressed all you want to do is make those around you happy because you want to make sure they never feel how you feel
Sadly I missed my one chance to see Avicii at EDC. Something I’ll always regret. I saw Aloe Blacc tho and I got goosebumps when he sang Wake Me Up 😔
Aloe is still here. Tim will always be remembered with love ❤
I feel that the only reason I was able to fall in love with EDM as a genre let alone house music, was because Avicii put such powerful songs out there and songs that related HEAVILY to people. So I just want to thank Tim for give everyone the opportunity to be able to enjoy and listen to such beautiful Melodie’s and beats.
❤️Avicii will always hold a special place in my heart.
Tim’s songs were a huge part of my wedding. We ended it with a compilation and jumped into the river. It was one of the happiest moments I’ve ever had. I wish he could have found the help and peace he needed instead of death.
I wish Avicii was still here, living in peace and making music
Avicii is in a better place now. If he was back here it wouldn’t be right for both him and us. It’s also our fault since we kept begging for him to keep doing tours but he didn’t want to. We didn’t respect what he wanted.
@@nightmare42069_ that's just disgusting he,s human he deserve a break 🙄
He was just a bloody brilliant musician. What a massive loss to the world.
TIM was like he had came from another GALAXY not ours. I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER HIM IN MY HEART.
The Mozart of our time. I will always remember him and he will always have a place in my heart.
Tim really had a talent for writing great melodies. Miss that guy and rest in peace.
*Our beloved tim was a seeker, a fragile artistic searching for answers... he could not go on any longer. he wanted to find peace...*
Oh my goooooooood I'LL CRY
"The late EDM genius, Avicii"
Not a genius, a legend. God of EDM
@@cannedtuna6114 good
@@wellhelltherefellwhuman4637 Your comments are everywhere mostly in avicii stuff(don't worry i miss him too😪)
He's the true king of edm
Lost Islands yeah😔
So he’s not a genius ? Lol ok
They filmed Wake Me Up in my hometown of Las Cruces/Mesilla New Mexico and Los Angeles California before they set the fires in California and Covid started. He was probably related to my Swedish side of the family.
it doesn’t matter if you’re the first or second comment.
Rest in peace Tim❤️Avicii’s music will go on 💜
Ur profile picture now haunts my nightmares.

😂 lmfao
You're cute lmao
Knock Hello would you really smash?
@@jays5926 ye, you??
Avicii was beloved all around the world. He was ridiculously talented and very, very creative, and if you look at that generation of DJ's, dancers, MC's and EDM creators/players, he really stood out.
Wake me up came out when I was homeless, it helped alot.
For me all the music that Avicii created were amazing, nowadays I still listen to his songs ❤
Gone too soon, but still remember as one of the greatest. This was extremely touching to watch, understanding that even people close to him weren't able to find what was really going on. Human beings are vulnerable, no one can ever have a 100% happy life, you sometimes got to struggle to proceed forward. R.I.P. to the one and only Tim Bergling "Avicii".
RIP. "Waiting For Love" got me through hard times in my life. I am sorry that I couldn't be of any comfort as much as you had given me.
Brisbane, NSW, Australia, GOODLIFE concert 2014 if I remember correctly. I had the honour to see Tim live! He was the closing act and they played “hey brother”. They had the confetti, the 3mtr long streamers, the bright lights, everybody jumping and every single person there was having a blast. I was only 14 & it was my first experience with EDM but it is an incredible memory to have. So much joy. Thank you for that memory Tim.
avicii was so talented, making the songs that he did so early in his career and at a time when edm was really ruled by 2 artists. his music is bar none some of the best ive ever listened to
The incalculable anguish his parents must feel. All the things that were plaguing him were manageable. So much grief and anguish people experience can be helped. What a tragic ending for his family to have to live with. I feel so bad for them.
There's NO OTHER ONE, TIM! you made such a wave in music, literally no one can fill the void that losing you left. We appreciate your art, and we miss you still ❤
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 He helped me discover EDM even before wake me up but wake me up was that song for me. 😭😭😭😭😭 I wish I would have seen him live once but In know he will stay with me forever because he changed my life 💜
Victoria Gonzaga same 😭
Same I was actually planning go to tommorowland and listen to him their but he past away the year I planned it I was devastated
Same in elementary School when i first heard his song levels I what really got me into edm
His songs had such a positive impact on my life!!!!!! May your legacy live long ❤️🌎
Avicii music changed me more positive person. RIP Legend
9:30 seeing Tim smiling and snusing, really made me cry
☹️😭 still
Cry till
This day. He’s our twenties!
Why does it still hurt..♥️
Because you are weak. Move on.
@@chelsiprice Tim is in a better place, trust me.
You're such a great artist can't nobody take that away from you you do such very good music while you did do the music and your music will live on forever tim you are good man you rest in peace big man you're not going to suffer no more but let your music live on forever RIP
Holding this much depression & emotions by yourself is very hard when all that emotions explode a one day there is no turning back it is all already over. Rest in Peace Tim.
Deep, Genius Soul.
He was light years ahead, Mentally.
I appreciate you brother.
❤
I'm crying I love Avicii, what an impact he made on our world. Rest in peace your music will last forever. ❤️
This is so heartening. I teared through the whole video. I miss Avicii.
John Doe he really helps my friend today that battles with deep depression. His eyes brighten when one of his songs are played😪
Had no idea until I just watched this...def loved the music, Rest In Peace 🕊
Even 3 years after this video, its still a shame that songs like "Island", "Dun Ditty" or Our Love aren´t released. (If you didn´t knew, there are a lot of new songs that got leaked.) Just search "Avicii Leaks" and you`ll find them.
2022 here and I still think about Tim a lot. I wish I could have known him. Maybe in the afterlife Avicii will be throwing a rave. We’ve never found another one, Tim.
“One day you’ll leave this world behind, so live a life you will remember”
His lyrics always meant a lot to me (and I'm sure to many others) each song reminds me of another memory or helped me get through something. I loved looking up to lyrics and always hung of to every word.
Thankyou Tim/Avicii ❤
I’m really going to miss him making music. But, there’s so many amazing songs that I will certainly continue to play for years to come. God bless you Tim x
How about advising people to seek professional help regarding mental health, don't just advise people to call a number for momentary suicide prevention. Most struggling with the idea of suicide are not going to call that damn number. It's like kicking the can down the road instead of trying to fix the underlying issues.
B Daniels Official thank you for how you put your words but it’s a sorry fact that the help is not always available
I've called the 800 numbers (for veterans and civilians) and EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. a bitchy-cunt answered the line and they were really combative towards me. When I sought out a therapist (thru the VA) she couldn't seem stay awake during my 30-minute sessions with her!!!!!
I myself have a serious mental condition & I need help. There isnt any. My doctor, family & friends dismiss me, the waiting lists for affordable treatment is months long. Theres nothing out there to help until it's too late & everyone shares a go fund me to help pay for your funeral & say shit like I'm always here for a chat if anyone needs me. Not you're not. It takes successful suicide for people to realise what youd been saying all along.
I struggled with it and at my lowest point where I almost brought myself to it, I never called that number. All it takes is a place to recover where you're with people that care about you that lift you up. For me, a sense of belonging got me out of that dark place. It took moving to a new country where I have a clean slate, no debt, medical is free, schooling is free, workers are paid living wages, and people are generally happy. Even the thought of going back to the US gives me a ridiculous amount of anxiety since I was completely miserable there. I don't know what will pull you out of it, but emigrating did it for me.
Reading these comments made me want to encourage you to keep going :)
It hurts so much even now. I tear up and sometimes wind up dropping those tears listening to his music and watching him in videos. I dont know why. It just makes me ache inside.
I wonder,does he know that he touched us so deeply?
Got to see him at Ultra Music Experience in 2012 on South Padre Island, hope you found peace Tim
Avicii I so wish you saw yourself as we all did. SO talented & loved. RIP ❤️
Honestly, this has given me strength. Thank you for your bitterSWEET story.
Everyday ,I imagine how different things would be if he hadn't passed away.💖
Had the honor of seeing Him multiple times in Vegas !!! The way he would mix the music was godlike! Fell I love with his style from the start
He was a genius. Wake Me Up made me feel good about life so many times.
Tim! Du är väldigt saknad! Tack för musiken, den kommer alltid att leva vidare!
A gorgeous man, an incredible talent, gone too soon.
Avici lives on. His music forever in our hearts. His face forever in our minds. Thank you. You are beautiful.
I usually skip watch videos skipping to more interesting parts of videos, this man deserves my full attention for this video, he really is an inspiration.
even tho he died his legacy still lives on
I loved Avcii(Tim),his music had those wonderful infectious beats and I thought the lyrics were really profound..I had seriously considered suicide a few years ago when my beloved grandma had to go into a nursing home..I was totally lost and felt so alone..I had it all planned out,what I was going to do,when I was going to do it,all of that I did not want to live anymore,this life was too hard..but one day I found a day old kitten under a bush in my grandma's front yard and took care of her and decided to keep her..at that moment all thoughts of suicide melted away..she is now a happy and healthy 2 year old..I rescued her,but she saved me..she is the light of my life 😺
(she is the one on my profile pic as a baby)
Live a life you will remember🙏🏾❤ LEGENDS NEVER DIE!
1:23 the happiness when he heard it exactly how he wanted it to sound... perfection is what he wanted
His music found me in my darkest days...
His Beats brought life back again...
His memory will always be a huge part of my Journey...
Thank You ...
RIP Avicii
I am one of Tim’s biggest fans. Listened to Snus, Jailbat, My Feelings for You. What isn’t talked about is his song - Another Day. What this song symbolized, and how Tim wanted to expose the stories behind this song. Of course the mainstream media ABC didn’t touch upon this. Forever in our hearts, Tim. We will shine light on what you wanted to expose.
I'm suffering from depression anxiety. I do respect if any one can help me
Pray and talk to God! Your inner spirit can reach your Creator and speak to God for help. 🙏🏾❤️. I am also praying for you and hope I am on time.
Gone but never forgotten. I love you Tim and will forever listen to your songs till I die ❤️ we will remember you
When I was little I use to hear your song through the McDonald’s radio and this brung me back to my childhood
I lost a beautiful friend to suicide, the first death I've ever experienced in life was a suicide, my best friend for years fought himself and every day I waited for that phone call.
To be left in the wake of a suidide is indescribable (like if you also know this feeling). I often times refer to people who give off distress vibes in that regard as people who look or act "creepy happy". The term "creepy happy" to me just describes that one person who is the life of the party, super outgoing and compassionate, these people are often very kind and give off a positive wave of energy that everyone loves to be around. However, when you're around these vibrant individuals, you may start to notice something different, perhaps it's how they sit, or how their eyes look completely empty some days as they compliment a plastered smile. These little glitches are very subtle, in fact they are so subtle that they can consume you before anyone else has a chance to call for help.
I'm sorry for your loss
Something about his music stuck out to me and really opened me up to a lot of new and house styles of EDM and I believed he influenced and evolved EDM from a lot of the old more techno, trance and house to his style and the melody, the lift, the acoustic integration, but not just that it was done... it was how he did it, so finely tuned. I never listened to his songs and thought "it could've used this" but more like "Wow, he did this".
On top of the fact, lyrically his music had a lot of parallels to Chester Bennington with Linkin Park, the music is hype, motivating, energizing, uplifting, moving and encouraging while the lyrics are quite somber, sad and deeper in meaning.
It hurts me because, I was really starting to get out in this world, live on my own, started to obsess with his music and go to festivals, then within about year or so, he's gone. Not to mention he was in his artistic prime, if alive today, he'd have brought so much more joy, hope, unity and peace in this world no doubt. His music and character was so very wholesome and empathetic.
He was only a visitor. RIP TIM
He’s a human 🙄 not a visitor tf wrong with u ☕️
He just wanted some peace and quiet.. he was so talented.. bless him...
Being pushed to be a God, when he was really just a human, with all its frailty, genius, and hunger.
Today is the 3rd year avicii left us
I feel this a lot.. I wanna end things everyday but no one would ever know.
Everyone just thinks I’m the funny guy without a care in the world..
