This picture of this old PC hit me very strongly. Watching this song's video, I remembered my childhood. My dad left our family and we had very little money. My mother was writing her PhD thesis. From the university she brought home, written-down old PC, just like this, and used it to write thesis. During my allowed time, I used to play old games on it, like Settlers. That PC was not able to run newer games, but it was just perfect for me. And after we connected to the internet (year 2000), I found mIRC messaging service, where I found many people of my mindset, and this beautiful girl. I was chatting with my distant girlfriend during the nights, we phoned each other, and spent hours together... but we never met in reality... I remember, sending pictures was a bit difficult, because I had to take a picture of myself, using film camera, bring it to the shop to develop a photo, then scan it at my friend's house, and send it through email. I find this beautiful music and pictures hitting me so strong on my nostalgia of simpler, better times. Now I am afraid to check my phone's notifications of all those overwhelming clients and job related stuff.
thanks for sharing your beautiful memories🥰
Yes, it hits hard, born in 86. This music is the nostalgic music of our time like jazz and blues were for previous generations
Synthwave has literally changed my life... and The Midnight are at the forefront.
SAME
The same for me 💓
How did it change anything about your life?
Its brought me joy, something I'll just assume you don't know much about, you contemptuous clown.
@@subarudrummer damm bro thats rude, i hope it will teach you kindness soon 😂
have a good one
The Midnight lovers...assemble!
May The Midnight never get fat.
Chaitanya Khoje I love the midnight 3000
I Am *pause* A Midnight Lover *snaps*
Me: The Midnight?
The Midnight: On your left
Everybody: Wooooo!!!
Midnight lovers now has two meanings
The California aesthetic in the photo is giving me so much nostalgia of being in a house in palisades for a few years in the very early 2000's. which for those who don't know, the setting of this photo *is in palisades!* and the artist is aaroncampbell.
Take a car from the 90s and drive at night while listening to this song
You'll simply transport to another dimension
Perfect song to hear at 3:00 AM while thinking about your life and stuff.
I would like to meet people who listen to this kind of music, you have to be people who feel nostalgia for those times and run away from all the shit that is arising now. I hope that one day I will meet with at least one such person. Greetings from Poland ⚪🔴 !
The beginning of the song and video makes me feel so much nostalgia that tears come to my eyes.
Hello from Florida USA, brother.
@@avortinus6031 Same. There is some intrinsic quality to The Midnight's music that has that effect on me.
hello from illnois USA! i hope you are doing well good sir. same for the other commenters!
Greetings from Toronto, Canada. I feel the same Nostalgic, warm feeling as well. All the best, brother
Someone else replied with this, but for anyone who didn't catch it, Tuesday August 6 1991 (in the lower left corner of the clip screen) was the date the modern internet basically began, with the launch of the www service and the publishing of the first website meant to be accessible to everyone, everywhere.
1991, on n'avait même pas encore internet en France !!!
@@nathaliecazier2514 Oh, wow! I can see how that would be, though. The internet began as a U.S. Department of Defense project, and it only became accessible to civilians later. Even then, there was a difference between the civilian internet starting to offer websites, and each person being able to access them. That required each person to have an internet service provider. So it may have taken some additional time before the first service provider came to your area in France. :)
This music was made for night driving.
It‘s like a switch to a different world.
Toke one during
I listen to near every song on Nocturnal every night on the drive home from work at midnight. Perfect time to get off of work, perfect group name for the time frame and perfect album and vibes for the drive. You're in reality driving home in the dark but you're somewhere else entirely.
Yes!! Let me be a passenger in your car!!
Absolutely! It's my time machine back to the days I call home. Couldn't agree more!
Greatest night time driving music! Agreed 1000%
I have not shed a single tear in over ten years. After hearing this track that changed tonight. I have never wanted to hop in a time machine more than now, if only for one moment, to relive the time when my family sat in front of our Compaq Presario PC and heard the dial up tone for the first time. Oh to see my mother's face again. What a glorious time to be alive. Thank you for this amazing track!
I hope that there’s an afterlife that’s the time machine you’re looking for. Endless dreams...
@@timonsolus Yea. Just be good, so that if there’s a Heaven, we’ll get to see it ❤️
Very well put ! Those days will always be in your heart and nothing can ever take that away !! It’s definitely bitter sweet !!
@Corey S..
Yeah just discovered this track, I think it's awesome too and hope you're doing really well love to you
This brings me memories of my first night learning programming in C. I had almost a setup like this, nothing fancy. This take me back to that night.
I was born in 1997 but i have a damn nostalgic feel for the 80s and 90s. I wanna go back in a time with cool music, cool cars, cool lifestyle without mobile phones and social media of today
Same brother. We were born in the wrong year! I wish i had experienced the 80s and 90s.
It was incredible. Don't worry. Those yet to be born will yearn for the early 2000s. When phones were still handheld, people still talked to their virtual assistants, and people still used vehicles to get around.
Same. Love it.
@carcomp101 crazy how the 2000s are to kids now what the 80s were to me growing up. Now I appreciate the time I came from. Wasn't always that way.
FYI, the first website ever launched went live on August 6, 1991.
info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/TheProject.html It's still online. It's mind blowing how far we came in 28 years....It's been 28 years.... Tho to be honest, I don't think anything will recapture for me the magic of computers as the 1994 to 1999ish period. I don't know if I just grew up and old or jaded, but that magic is no longer there.
Didn't know that, thanks for sharing the info!
Para nasa computer
I was a month old when that went live. Crazy
@@MikeBenko computers are still magical but they have become a lot more managed by someone that is not you.
August 6th 1991, my eleventh birthday!!!! For my fortieth birthday, I'm going to see The Midnight on tour! Time just goes by so very quickly. Enjoy every second of it, kids!
Tim Berners-Lee releases files describing his idea for the World Wide Web. WWW debuts as a publicly available service on the Internet.
Happy Birthday!
Ayyy as someone also born on august 6th, happy belated birthday
thats deep broo..i m too stoned !!
Fortieth? What are you smoking?
Ahhhh, 1991 when I still had my parents ❤️
if only i could go back everything hit so differntly even the holidays back when there was no facebook or tictok
Its impossible for this band to make crappy or non-hit songs.. these guys are ALWAYS making hit songs.. every damn track is perfect! The Midnight is by far the best band I 've heard the last 20 years!
The last album bar 3 songs was pretty crap. This song is too.
@Alex Ushi Nocturnal is by far the best! Amazing ambience and compositions. It is just a genre of music that specific people that lived or born in the 80s and consumed that culture can understand. And ofc its a matter if someone likes that style of music.. that matters too.
Amen to that, keep up the good work guys, your all just amazing, it's a shame they don't play decent music like this on the radio or retro wave have their own radio station 😀🤩👍
The best band I've heard in the last 20 years were called Innerpartysystem. The midnight are going downhill. And live synthwave gigs have all but killed my love of the genre. A hall full of beard stroking, silent and stationary 30 somethings. I tried to get into it but it was all but impossible.
I love when people come to the comments section to tell other fans their taste in music is invalid in the rudest possible way just because they like something different.
Watching/listening this to 144p is even more 80's.
1. Midnight kids don’t lie
2. We stay together in bad situations
3. We have hope for each other
4. We have fun no matter what
5. We will always fight for one another
Share & Share Alike. Information needs to be Free.
Based.
Amen!
The feeling of utter disconnect from each other caused by the internet is perhaps more relevant than ever in our current times.
I see we've moved up to the 90's now! Time for A E S T H E T I C S
Ugh yes more midnight vinyls pls
the beginning ambience is quite 80's
Like with perfection, spot on
A lot of music like this was showing the slow transition from the 80s to the 90s.
Too, this song could easily fit into the late 80s.

the positive energy in this comment section makes the music even better
Absolutely agree 👍
You guys saved my life. Keep up the amazing music, I’ll see you in Orlando
They have that effect! (:
Superb deep music
I saw them live too. Somehow they are even better. 👍
Same with me.... Im in the center of depression but ey...... Im still here and fighting.
@@tmxb4490 lol
My god. Synthwave has really captured my heart over the past year. I like to smoke at night, turn on tunes like this, and do a little Wim Hoff breathing. Puts me in another world that's truly incredible
The same👽💀✌️
smoking + breathing exercises?!? 😲
Der Metzgermeister Hope he’s motivated to quit smoking, now more than ever.
Love the comments. I can pretty much assume your age range by the fact that you did NOT say, that synthwave has "literally" capture your heart. Big ups to you and synthwave :D
check the 432Hz versions on my chan
Nobody bottles nostalgia like The Midnight. The lyrics, the chords, the artwork, the zeitgeist! I cannot wait to time travel with you in Pittsburgh.
dutchrub: You will love it. The show in Dallas on April 12th, was simply AMAZING! I definitely felt time travel, without leaving town.
Really enjoyed the Louisville show! Plan on going to Bloomington show later this year too.
Its even better than the 80s !

If nostalgia could speak it would sound like The Midnight.
Amen!
I was born in '78...sooo yeeeaaah,this hits the nail on the head
Exactly!!!
I've listened to every album released by The Midnight, and had to buy this one on vinyl.
Out of all their songs, I keep coming back to this one. It might be my absolute favorite song of all time, even.
The Midnight will be in San Francisco for New Years Eve this year, and I really want to go, but I don't have anyone to go with.
I also missed them when they toured with FM-84, one of the biggest regrets of my life.
I won't be there to see the NYE show, but I'll be listening to their music and imagining I'm there with the friends I wish I had. Love this group so much.
How can I be nostalgic about an Era I never experienced
You can't.
I'm born in 6 August 1991 😁
Thanks for beautiful track ❤️

This song made me miss 90s and I haven't lived there
David Jm it was a awesome time!
I wake up everyday wishing it was 1997 again
David Jm good time bro
Too bad for u
it was a simple time but thats how things go, the matrix changes constantly to make older people less relevant.. the moment were in now seems stessfull but when you look back youll see it was much more free than in 50 years time.
this feels nostalgic and futuristic at the same time.
This track goes hard to nostalgia town. Vibes transcendent from another time.
AOL…yes. Unfortunately every generation after ours will never have the digital nostalgia we experienced as children growing up in the digital revolution
If I love you, will you love me?
If I want you, will you want me?
I’m reaching, are you reaching out?
If I touch you, will you touch me now?
Through the wires to the heart
Phantom fingers fumble in the dark
I thought I did; I felt a spark
Are we all one beating heart?
If I love you will you love me?
If I hurt you will you hurt me?
I’m reaching, are you reaching out?
If I touch you, will you touch me now?
Through the wires to the heart
Phantom fingers fumble in the dark
I thought I did; I felt a spark
Are we all one beating heart?
Or are we strangers?
Am I a stranger?
Lyrics summarized: "Ouch"
Lyric video should be come..
Interesting. There’s a track on Tyler’s “Native Genius of Desert Plants” that goes “we are one beating heart”.
Thanks
When I first heard this, I thought at "if I hurt you will you hurt me" he said "if I fuck you will you fuck me" 😂😂😂
sorry to ruin the mood ._.
came back to this song
I remember 5 years ago when it came out, with the whole album, i feel like it changed my life
This athmosphere, i find it only with The Midnight
"Monsters .zip" on the pc screen.... Teasing new album maybe? :D
Though the same
Seasons past but the monsters stay.
My thoughts exactly
Looks like its gonna have an early 90s vibe too it. Great times in 91 honestly with snes, terminator 2 and Nickelodeon.
That's what it looks like!
born 1987, the aesthetic of my childhood is celebrated by the entire planet
Treating me so good for a Thursday night 😉
If anyone listens to this song while doing work, much respect! I miss the 80s, 90s but we have great artists like the midnight now. All we can try to tell ourselves is... Onwards and Upwards! Just do the best you can and try to move forward. Sure, we will never live in the 80's again but we can try to remember the ideals before social media... and just try to do better! Remember the time when friends who cared used to call their friends to just say HI, how are you? No agenda.
I see in the back. Your music make nostalgia. Time run. Feelings in the now
Чё, как дела? I like nostalgia of the 90's but I don't remember a lot of synthesized voiced songs for the era. Now 80's that's different. It fits.
Ruby Core yes you are right
Were You using google translate? Cause sentences are choppy and almost senseless. Да, и можешь по-русски писать, тут наших немало.
anonymouzxx это прибавляет аутентичности
anonymouzxx google translate needs some work. I see choppy sentences more than I think I should.
I can't express how this music hits me, 10/10
is it me or everyone else has fallen in love of the view outside the window? just seeing that image and listening to the song makes me to place where my perfect utopia resides.....
I was drawn to it.
@@Grybhaal_Daublebach there is strange strong sense of hypnotic feeling , the starry skies matched with mountains in the background and a lit city nestled between them , its so beautiful.....
It's beautiful. Gives me a sense of relaxing bliss. I can't explain why though it just does! A beautiful starry 1991 night haha 😊
Dammit, it was sooo good being a kid in 1994!!!
I smell quality...
Must be midnight
I love the smell of Midnight in the morning.
I wish it was 91 again!!! Love The Midnight!!!!
love the pan flutes nice touch
something about pan flutes that takes me to 90's summer and waterparks / beaches in specific for some reason
Tiago Costa for me the pan flutes take me back to watching Discovery channel and seeing the opening intros that showcased wildlife through slides.
Nothing encompasses 90's like that flute... it's the Florida scene, the connection to the outside world, our involvement in other cultures. It's hard to put my finger on. It was just prevalent in music and it just captures that 'discover the world' or 'go to the bahamas' feel :)
It's even used in modern genres like deep house! Great instrumental to get that feel.
I'm a complex man with complex needs. I see Midnight, I press like.
New The Midnight! Drop whatever you are doing and enjoy!
Love the sound in the beginning, sounds like a walkman running out of battery, if that's on purpose then it's a great ressemblance to the 80's, well done Tim
Lol yeah, also a sound that reminds me of the sound when the “AOL” application first opened up on my Macintosh
This Music has helped me so much. I am currently in tears rn. I am in school at this point in time and my girlfriend just told me she is going to leave for New Zealand in one weeks time. This song helped me release my emotions. Thank you, for everything the midnight. You have helped me through the darkest moments in my life.
Get over it
The midnight.....Never disappoints...
Never
EVER!
And the award for the song that evokes the highest level of nostalgia goes to...
These lyrics are so simple but have so much impact and it literally makes me ache with such a sweet sadness every time I listen. In fact, most of The Midnight ‘s songs do this and it really helps me process my memories and feelings in my life so far. Somehow this melancholy sound, these words help me keep the good times and memories close and reminds me why life is worth living. Thank you for your beautiful, healing music Tyler and Tim. 🖤✨
that's exactly it, the perfect way to put it but I just couldn't find the words. "Ache with such a sweet sadness". It is so very true.
The synth accentuates that feeling of nostalgia for a time in the past, makes you appreciate life a little more and aches in a way that connects deeply with your soul. It's a bliss feeling, sad yet wonderful at the same time.
@@samy29987 Yes. The main melody and the chord progression of this song is just something, I can't even explain it. It's way more than just nostagia, happiness or sadness, it's like... fuck it, I can't explain it, sorry.
Poetic words
Mono no aware
I was 6 in 91. The early 90’s was one of the happiest times of my life.... everything went to shit around 98 and beyond
I also have heavenly memories from the 90s. It was actually probably as shitty as nowadays but when you're a kid things are different.
Avortinus very true
While I was listening to this song I finally got the courage to talk to this guy who lives by me that I see during my walk sometimes. :)
how did it go?
@@Certified_Alien Omg. 😹 It did not go well lol. At first we kind of became friends but then one day when I walked down to the park by our houses I saw him with a girl and he didn't say hi to me and he just hugged the girl lol. 😭 So I just left and never really saw him again. But I guess I didn't really like him that much.
@@WaLoliiiu Props for going up and doing it though. takes courage - good on you
@@heyitsg9278 I guess so. 😹 Thank you.
I'm absolutely speechless...
90's babies RISE UP
70's and 80's too.
I really miss the 90s sometimes, when I was just a kid without a single worry or care in the world.
No smart phones, no tablets, no social media, no work related stress, no drama, no bills to pay. Just life.
The only thing that mattered, was "How long can I stay outside with my friends before I gotta go to bed?"
I could sit here, listen to this song on repeat, and stare at this image for hours, and lose myself in all the memories, but life happens way too fast for that nowadays.
Screw it. Just five more minutes...
1991, i just imagine people playing on their megadrives/Genesis's getting used to a certain blue hedgehog, great song tho.
@Hasan Arif same here fuck Mario!
Saaaayyyyy Gaaaaaah!!!!
That was me... game gear 👍
So glad synthwave is still burning Bright, been listening to it for nearly 6 years now
awesome picture, i remember getting up early in the morning to dialup the internet as no one else was using the phone. so much nostalgia from that time period
The midnight literally can't produce bad songs. Greetings from the Netherlands🔥
ATLEX definitely not wrong about that
precies
greetings from the netherlands too.
I wish i was born in the 80s instead of 2005 could lived in the best decades everything so good about those days
The chat reminds me of what Rachael clone said to Deckard in Blade Runner 2049
"Did you miss me? Don't you love me?"
We are all one beating heart ❤💛💚💙💜
When the 80's ended, we witnessed the birth of the Internet.
@aston nex think it was doctors and such who used it. The world wide web is what came into being in the early 90s.
I hate the modern internet of today; popups, data hoovering, accept cookies or bugger off and WE WILL PLAY AUTOPLAY VIDEOS SO YOUR EARS BLEED BUY STUFF!!!!
When the 2010s ended, we witnessed the birth of a worldwide pandemic
Synthwave and themidnight has literally changed my life...
This song is amazing, and it gets me so hyped for the new album!
Here here! LoL I agree
Can't wait!
82年出生，怀旧的我，刚刚头疼得厉害，吃了止疼片好些了，但听到The Midnight的音乐，让我激动起来，头又疼了。。。哈哈

Us midnight kids will never give up
"Computers aren't the thing. It's the thing that gets us to the thing."
- Joe Macmillan, Halt and Catch Fire
I'm old enough to remember when the computers looked like this, and had floppy discs. I used to use a Gateway in the 90's. The nostalgia is so very strong. I sometimes feel sorry for people who didn't get to grow up in the 80's. It was just as great as people (Gen-X) say it was. I grew up listening to lots of electronic music back when it was considered "alternative" and new. This brings back so many memories, both good and bad. I completely agree with lots of the other older commenters here. Thank you.
Driving with this song through Manhattan in my friends convertible at night is the most amazing feeling I’ve had in a long time. It has taken all my work stress away
Good God DAMN do I ever want to recreate the whole room depicted in these videos in real life; this amazing, lived in, messy room...
First thing I saw this morning when I woke up was this track on Bandcamp. A fine way to start off my birthday. See you Saturday, guys!
Happy birthday.!
@@aditisingh6172 Thank you!
I was born in 1994 and I miss the 90s so much! Even though I was just a little kid I still have strong memories from it. Thanks for this amazing song. I always come back to it! One of my all time favorite songs. Probably is my all time favorite song
I cant handle this reality anymore. I want to go back............please.
*Heavy Nostalgia intensifies*
The lyrics are so simple, yet so humanizing. The distortion is perfect, as though reflecting the mask that we all wear when going through the feeling of love. The song might refer to the entire community, but for me it's all about you. After having given all in, to become human and wanting to be loved, despite the experiences that have shaped us and that tell us that we are ultimately all alone. Are we all one beating heart? That's the only thing I want to feel with you. One beating heart. No phase difference. As if we were made for each other.
Or am I the stranger that's just meant to teach some and learn some and move forward in case we are unable to become one beating heart?
We know we are one beating heart or not. It's just with time we will accept the fact.
A simple video with an old computer, the colorful screen and the date time at the bottom left, makes you imagine what you we’re doing on that date. Love the song, love de video, love the Midnight!
I FREAKING ABSOLUTELY LOVE THESE GUYS!!!!!!
I'm 48,I grew up 80's and I can promise you,music this good was rare even then and had these guys been around then they would be considered legends today!
"Welcome you've got mail" Oh 90's, where art thou? 😎
Unexpected, but always welcome.
Wish I was born earlier, everything seems so much better than! Take me back to 1985, all the best stuff comes from that timeline!
we would go for four wheeler rides.
it was the most perfect summer.
she was 14 and i was 16.
she was my first real girlfriend.
first kiss, she had to teach me.
she gave me her hairbrush so i could smell her hair when she wasn't around.
just 2 little kids with big dreams trying to be adults too fast.
life happens.
i wouldn't change a thing.
awesome tune The Midnight.
"just 2 little kids with big dreams trying to be adults too fast." - my god did it strike a nostalgic chord reading that.
A very cozy vibe before going to sleep.
Wooooow so good! After 4 albums, it’s not easy to produce tracks of this quality !
Top tune I always come back for, haunting and beautiful ❤
MY BODY IS READY AND IT JUST STARTED!!!!
i miss these days. wish i could go back and relive and experience the 80s and 90s again as i was and it was. Good times, good memories.
I just woke up and I needed this
That intro is PURE 90s Nostalgia
80's nostalgia.
Synthwave is not for everyone and only a chosen few are able to enjoy such quality of music, peace be with you.
Honestly it's hard for me to understand why such few people would enjoy this kind of music i mean, just close your eyes and listen, it will take you to another state of mind, such positive energy and the feeling it's so beautiful, just a few other music genres can make u feeel that way
These synthwaves are from another dimension, and I'm not talking about the location, I'm talking about vibrations, if you know you know.
This band created a whole new genre of music
If God comes n ask me what is your wish I cn fulfill.
Me: Give me those 80'-90's days...
Love you Mom & Dad💖
This is the stuff that should be topping the fucking charts !
