Love from Texas

I WANT TO LIVE INSIDE THIS VIDEO
Same here
Me too.
I did. For two separate days in 1967.
Expo 67. Montreal.
Amazing experience for a kid.
Same
Welcome to Cananda
Because of this music video I traveled from Germany to Montreal, Canada in Nov 2019 to visit this place. I listened to this song while walking through the Expo 67 island...yes, it was pure magic.
Was denkst du von der Stadt?
@@jayron9 Montreal ist schön, eher wie eine europäische Stadt (etwa Paris), wo hingehen Toronto ca. 500 km weiter westlich völlig amerikanisch ist.
To bad you didn't come in 2018 to Osheaga on the Island in Montreal , you could have heard them play this right near the biosphere like in the video.
That's awesome!👍
@@blairwilliams136 No way, they were playing there? Lucky you!👍 They are so underrated.
“Who starts a fire just to let it go out” love that line
& mind listening to this chill song -> Time by The Impures
is good i like the song, hear it :D[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
that's what you do with fires tho, you rather burn down the forest?
@@oco.1896 cars, food, factories. Fire is important.
@@oco.1896 dude started a fire back in 2013, still going
Deep
this almost alternate vintage universe of nostalgia is the exact place i go to everytime i listen to one of their songs
I agree completely! So wonderful
It's nice to be able to escape into someone else's imagination.
Hmmm, you do realize this was a real place tho... It's literally the Montreal world fair in 1967 also called Expo 67.
I can imagine that in an alternate universe the expo is literally how modern society looks like in the early 21st century and in said universe alvvays are a big band like on Coldplays level
I think I recognize this footage, if anyone's curious it’s from an event called “Expo 67” hosted on an island in Montreal that happened for one year in 1967 hence the title, where a bunch of nations participated in showcasing different parts of their culture. Many of the buildings and structures were very futuristic looking, designed to show off the peak of architecture and technology, including the monorail transportation you see in the video, and a few films even used it for a sci-fi setting. I think the setting works perfectly for the dream like quality of the music :)
(Edit: forgot to include that the editing of the band into the old footage is wonderfully done with the film grain and the matching of the locations, it's seems like they're almost really there! Kudos to the editors)
wish expo 67 stayed forever
Thank you for this! I was wondering if it's an actual old footage that they edited the band in.
5 points to you Andrew
@@cheesecakelasagna like in Forrest Gump!
AKA The World's Fair
This track is like the first hapiness after a depression
more like momentary break of depression
@@BluRaykay "Who starts a fire just to let it go out?" Don't give up.
Or feel okay for a while... 😊
like when you start feeling like yourself after a breakup.
Thank you for writing that. That is a beautiful way of summarizing it. I am now listening to the song for the second time, and I will probably play for a third time.
I am currently grieving my mom and something about this song is making the process easier. Thank you to the band!
Heard this amazing piece during my shift at Starbucks. Usually I can’t hear anything when I am busy working....but this made the world stopped all the sudden
Wherw do you live bro?
Haunting lyric!
Hahahaha you too? I was working at Peet's when I heard it.
First time I heard her was in Starbucks too. lol
Small world...
Manyee Wong i wish i could go back in time and rehear this song for the first time
It’s has such a magical quality to it
This band,Cigarettes After Sex,Beach House,Slowdive, DIIV,Fazerdaze, Ducktails,Men I Trust, Beach Fossils, Wild Nothing,Real Estate are bringing back dream-pop dynasty
Don't forget Hazel English.
still corners, mark whalen, cults...and much more
well, i'm listening all of their songs everyday..
Slowdive is OG shoegaze though. Clairo and Cigarettes After Sex can go jump off a cliff, we don't need them.
You need to listen to Camera Obscura.
i'm not cyborg Add Girlpool and Part Time to that list
This song makes me feel weird, like nostalgic to a point in my life that never existed.
Anemoia - n. nostalgia for a time you've never known.
Count me in. Listen to washed out and get back to me lol
Nice way to put it. This song is just so ethereal.❤👍
This song is the definition of deja vu
@@christinefeaster4102 I also love the dictionary of obscure sorrows.
This is one of those songs that hurts my heart to hear, but it’s just too damn good to ignore.
& mind listening to this chill song -> Time by The Impures
is good i like the song, hear it :D[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
on a Kantian explanation, that's the Sublime; something so beautiful, so overwhelming that hurts.
LORD GIVE ME STRENGTH.
THIS ALBUM IS TOO PERFECT.
this deserves an award for most beautiful song and video ever made.
It's so peaceful and calming
mcquade martin you’re definitely one of those memes where they say “my homies have the car I can listen to something other then rap
You are so right. This is super good. Check this one out as well. Top notch too. Surprisingly, the song was not part of the original soundtrack. Good day.

This second link is from the director of Moonrise Kingdom. The movie in the video. Hope you like both.

Sorry, but In Undertow beats it on both counts. Both are great!
@@jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj178 the ending of in Undertow is good
Easily the greatest song in human history. Alv-vays combines perfectly literalism with irony. Unfettered genius.
This music makes me cry, but make me smile too. It is kind a happy-sad music. I love it!
Perfectly put. So true. Like tears of joy
It’s not happy but it’s not sad 🥺
Thats exactly what i feel with any of alvvay's songs
[Verse 1]
Rode here on the bus
Now you're one of us
It was magic hour
Counting motorbikes on the turnpike
One of Eisenhower's
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Live your life on a merry-go-round
Who starts a fire just to let it go out?
[Chorus]
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight?
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?
[Verse 2]
On the lead guitar
Said you'd go to work
In the waking hour
In fluorescent light
Antisocialites watch a wilting flower
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Live your life on a merry-go-round
Who builds a wall just to let it fall down?
[Chorus]
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight?
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?
[Bridge]
Don't sit by the phone for me
Wait at home for me, all alone for me
Your face was supposed to be hanging over me like a rosary
So morose for me; seeing ghosts of me; writing oaths to me
Is it so naive to wonder...
[Chorus]
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?
Ystian Thanksss 💫
what’s the meaning of the song? don’t got it :(
Hiram Castro “If I saw you on the street, would I have you in Dreams tonight ,Tonight”🤘🏼✨
The correct lyrics are "on a weird guitar, said you wrote a while". This is verifiable in the lyrics set printed on the LP sleeve.
i just saw this
Her voice is a lovely, gentle hug.
She even mentions the rosary . . .
The "tonight" at 1:45 is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.
I remember Alvvays playing Expo in ‘67...what’s stranger still is that I saw this show, and I was born in 1980.
Saw Alvvays live last night in Central Park. Will never forget Molly Rankin smiling at me and singing
You lucky cupcake! Cheers :P
What a beautiful girl
I was at that show! They were amazing!
Lucky!!!! In Napoleon Dynamites voice. 😂
This was footage from the World's Fair 67 in Montreal.
Thank you.
I’m just wanna be there 💔
Thanks!!
I thanked god thousands of times that I found this song. So underrated, but that is why it feels so close to heart!
Ugh, the bridge 1:58-2:56 is just transcendentally ethereal. I love this band.
man I love that part, the first time I heard it I cried so hard
It’s so beautiful... the writing, the flow.. heart achingly lovely. 😌
I was looking for a bridge in the video lol
@@jaredf6205 LOL
Are you a girl?
this is so calming wtf
I feel extremely tranquil and also a little sad? Like a bittersweet nostalgia for something I never had. Fuckin Alvvays, making me feel shit and shit.
Bradley me too somehow
That's the point!!!
Bradley Lindsey YES!!!!!
Hi fellow army here
I have been fortunate to have visited over a dozen countries in my life so far, but no city in the world has captured my heart like Montreal. I can’t explain why, but its history is part of it. Walking the grounds of the World’s Fair was a special moment for me and this brought me to tears thinking of the optimism that existed in 1967.
@Tobi Ojo mais très sale, avec des odeurs...
Wow, we envy you! Always wanted to ask people who went there (Expo 67) how it was like! We live there now and love it so much.♥
Never heard of Alvvays until I saw them live open for The Strokes back last March in Seattle. The day before the state of Washington shut down I feel so lucky to have discovered this band.
Yo trabajando con canales piratas, de repente conecto un canal de musica alternativa sonó In Undertow y aquí estoy comentado xD
did they play anything new there
This is the song I always come back to, I’ll never get tired of it. It shall be playing at ever major event in my life.
all i can think about when i hear this song is how i drove down the highway with my left hand out the window, screaming into the wind because i had my first kiss the day before with a girl that i knew i would be in love with for the rest of my life. I heard this song on the radio and it had the same feeling of nostalgia yet joy that I still feel when i think about her, and how young we both were and how excited and happy we were to be with eachother. so thank you alvvays for an amazing song trapped in an amazing memory
pixelk fleur awe /:
I'm so in love with this u deserve the world
This sounds like a nostalgic and cute af scene out of an indie movie 💔
i know that feeling too ... wish you the best.
this is 11 months old but this made my night and i hope you're living a great life.
"Don't let motion..... distort everything....." so beautiful.
What does it mean?
I met a stranger on a site, talked abt our fav music and stuff. He told me about this song, and the very first time I listen to this song, I fell in love with it. So, whoever you are, thanks :) been repeating this song all day.
Wow! That’s the best thing to ever happen to all of us
I had asked ChatGPT about a similar song to Geowulf's "Sunday" in terms of nostalgia and modern, and this was one of the mentions. Also Tennis "Marathon," was a mention. I have not listened to all of the others yet. I am unsure of what this type of music is called? Is it soft rock, or nostalgic rock?
it's like a lullaby. i'll definately sing this to my children in the future.
Such a calming tune.
Expo 67!!! This footage has been updated so expertly that it had me doubting it was original. Fantastic!
It's like a sad person singing a dreamy happy memory
Awesome❤️
Omg i miss those days when I used to played this song while going to classes in the cold early morning
Ohmy yes. I hope this quarantine is over soon :'
This video is dreamlike. Trance enducing. What a magical lil bubble world Alvvays made w the stock footage & incorporating those prime colors. Song is indie pop candy
Incredible album, you guys.
I listen to this song every day in Japan.
I love Alvvays!!

@@guideness6601 Thank you for your recommendation!!
My favorite Artists →beachhouse,MacDeMarco,Men I trust,YoothLagoon,Summer Salt :)
What a vibe
Heard this song last night on the train in Japan. I was mesmerized by the singer's voice. Looked up the band (Alvvays) on TH-cam and was mesmerized once again by singer Molly Rankin and this video. They spliced the band into footage from Expo '67 in Montreal like something out of Forrest Gump and it all just fits so beautifully.
That's a dreamy song to listen to on a train in Japan! It has a bit "Lost in Translation" vibes... In fact I compiled a playlist with songs that I wanna listen to on a train in Japan, and I just added this one, as well. :)
most beautiful song of 2017!
The one song I keep returning to no matter how much time has passed
Reminds me of summer camp 2 years ago. That was the happiest week of my life and always brings back vivid memories. This song makes it feel good to cry.
People say they want to live inside this video but they are too blind to see that this is our reality. Be happy because you live in a beautiful world.
Such a visually stunning video.
I am so depressed right now, my world is like falling apart. Girlfriend left, my dog died and everything feels like a bad dream. But this band helps me i dont know why, but i love them.
We hope you find relief soon. So sorry to know you're going through a bad spell or went through one. Looks like you posted this a month ago so we hope the worst is over. Anyway, we hope we can provide comfort through our music too. Feel free to check out our TH-cam. May 2022 treat you better.
I hope you're doing good now man
hang in there. you can get out of that place, though progress might feel slow
praying for you man. Jesus hurts with you
Hope you feel better now bro.
I have been with this girl for almost 3years now and now we seem to be growing distant from each other slowly. The love we felt once for each other isn't there anymore. But I still love her. I come back here every night to listen to this song while thinking about the memories we made together. Maybe this will fall apart someday, but I'll always love her. I just don't want to let out the fire we have in between us. I wish I can dream of her every night when I go to sleep.
Tomara que vc reconquiste esse amor, que ele volte a ter a intensidade de antes, torcendo por vc
It's official.
I declare this one of the best songs in history. Same goes for the music video.
Good job, Alvvays
When I start daydreaming this song starts playing in my mind... It brings with it both happiness and sadness; I love every second of this song. On an endless loop in my soul❤️
& mind listening to this chill song -> Time by The Impures
is good i like the song, hear it :D[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Completely obsessed over this song rn.
He recommended me this song and this band, I fell in love with it as much as I love him... He one day told me this song, together with the other songs he recommended me, reminds him of her and for a moment, hearing this song hurts.
Even if we don't end up like how I want it to be, I will treasure your playlist like how I treasure you and our memories and dream of how it all be different if one thing was different.
Do you like Beach House or CCFX?
Youre so cute luna
@@andrespereydaresearch I do
i hope you’re doing well
@@user-qn5yr3wv6f you are so sweet!!
This song is like an emotional conversation.
I tell people that the Universal loves us and we are all tripping over the signs everyday. THIS is another sign. What a dream this band made......I'm jumping in.....you can too!
Makes me nostalgic for a time I was too young to appreciate. Captures the vibe of the song so perfectly.
This was the first song of theirs that I listen to back in 2018. I fell in love with her voice and music style. It still going strong and I will always have a place for them in my heart.
I know! This record has so many layers it's unreal how "better" the songwriting got. And I mean that in all respect to the first album...that first album was just amazing in itself, but this record is just another universe. I can't believe some of the reviews of this record that just aren't getting it. They want all the songs to be "Archie" and it just can't happen with a band like this. Plimsoll Punks is one of the best songs I've ever heard, PERIOD! When I first heard this song I could not get it out of my head.
MrMonikerjay Well said. (Claps)
James Austria I have no idea. Maybe. I would have to look into that.
What an outstanding and beautiful vocal performance.
This song is timeless. It can never grow old(:
Just when you think there is no more good music, you find the perfect song.
If there was ever a video that complimented the song.......this is it
This record represents a gigantic evolution from the self-titled.
Of course! Completamente de acuerdo.
gigantic? why
So true.
Cleaner Production.
More trained voices from Molly and Kerri.
Effects and synths cleaner and better used.
More energy and noise, and they have a reason inside each song.
They reached their own sound and style.
And more technicality from the instruments, more in the guitars.
GIGANTIC he says.
There are no words to express how nostalgic and hopeful this song makes me feel
The fact that they haven't uploaded anything in 3 years shattered my fragile little heart into pieces.
They just have released new stuff, check it out!
Great tune + expo 67 visuals. That’s a yes in my book!
Hearing this wonderful song makes you feel like you're floating in a beautiful dream :) Love Alvvays
This is it, the song I've been listening on repeat for three months, my summer song
The song is too good that it hurts
Band of the decade. Absolutely love their sound
such an incredible video. this album and their entire discography has helped me sm in times of need!
I first heard this song 2-3 years ago by chance, and I’ve been obsessed with Alvvays ever since. The serotonin produced from their music is unmatched.
Mine was Archie, Marry Me. Such a good band
Was in the city a while ago and briefly talked with a guy who had just gotten finished playing guitar and singing. He was so beautiful and eloquent that it almost felt like I had just dreamed him up, but I couldn't stay for too long because I had to catch up with my family. Then in the next store I stopped at, this song was playing. I feel love for strangers way more than I do for people I actually know, I swear.
How am I just now finding this. So good. Reminds me of the 90s band "The Cardigans" anyone remember them?
But better.
love me love me say that you love me😄
They do have a similar aesthetic now that you mention it.
I like the comparison
I forgot about those guys
Is the archival footage from the 1967 Montreal World Fair? Man, I love that flavor of futurism. I was born not too long after that, and that was still very much my childhood aesthetic and what we imagined the world’s utopian near-future would look like. In a sense, to this day I’m still shell-shocked by how abruptly the Thatcher/Reagan ‘80s were imposed on us … how quickly corporate media put a halt to anyone talking about community, or social change, or shared aspirations. The kids are alright, though … maybe they’ll still realize that future for us all, one way or another!
Happy-sad. Perhaps that’s the best way to describe the emotions that come with nostalgia.
I love happy-sad music
Damn, the video is perfectly crafted. Looked at it so often and thought it was just original footage, until i saw that she is in almost every shot. So amazing...
So glad im not the only one feeling these unexplainable things whenever i hear this song 🥺🥺🥺
The way she sings the line 'all alone for me' around 2:05 sounds so beautiful it just breaks my heart.
the bridge is beautiful
That is one of the most perfect songs ever written.
The early to mid 90s was such a special time for music. This brings me back to the shoegaze era. I miss my Gen X youth
It's so great they don't make those HD videos, this quality fits perfect with the vibe of the music ❤️
360p for the full aesthetic
Love this song & video, therapeutic song after a stressfull day at work
I’ll always come back to this song whenever I feel sad
This is so beautiful. It just lifted my spirits instantaneously. I want to introduce more people to this band.
Love the first album and this album too. Not listening to the genre currently but this album is the only exception. Hope can see you live one day.
Thank you, Whole Foods!! While grocery shopping with my mother, I heard this song and wanted to look it up.
70's Canadian retro-futurism is such a delightful aesthetic.
Who still here listening to this and will keep on listening?
Me!
I went on Wikipedia to read about Expo 67 and when I read about this video I just had to see it. I was NOT disappointed! Amazing!
For me, this is the best song. No one's gonna change my mind.
you have taste
I recommend you another best song - Fireflies by Owl City
@@sownlengoclol
Just discovered this song today. It came on the radio in Books A Million and I fell in love with it instantly. This video just makes me love it all the more.
I m so thankful to Selena that she send me here. I love this music and video❤️❤️❤️
Glad to have you aboard.
Props to the whole production teams at Shy Kids & Zapruder... This is a visual masterpiece. Better splice job than the ones in Rogue One.
This song brings up memories about almost getting together with someone perfect and we really connected. Heck, she played this song once but it got stuck in my head ever since. But it couldn't happen because of impossible circumstances. I found the right person at the wrong moment in life. I couldn't get over what happened. Hopefully I'll be able to move on sooner or later
The shaky shoulder camera, the wide shot @ 2:27 followed by a sudden close-up, the matching of colours, the perspectives, everything is so well blended, how did they manage to get this so good and undetectable? It's almost impossible to distinguish the new images from the new. I can't stop watching this little clip.
Kudos to the editor
Me too Ima in love with this
What do you call nostalgia for a time you never experienced?
Anemoia
hipster
Euphoria
nastalgia
anemoia
I alvvays smash that like button
Molly is the cutest !!!!
Her voice is so soothing
Listened to this under a full moon with patio lanterns by the poolside in the heat of a Texas night. Pretty much paradise to me.
every Alvvays' song and video are such a beautiful nostalgia
