I was in high school when I listened to it at full volume in my parents' car on the way to school. Years later, I hear it on the cockpit speakers of one of the planes of which I am a Pilot, before taking off or when we land and shut down systems. This song is still epic. Good and bad memories, but after all, they will last forever. Now I keep hearing it a little higher up, I hear it at 30,000 feet up.
Yea my late mate out me into this fella n this track Still play few times a year.... Beautiful track despite like you say good s n bad memories... Mostly good 👍✌️🙏
First time I've seen the video clip of this amazing song. And it included the light! So everyone, here is how you see the light, with your own actual physical eyes, facebook.com/thelightislove/ Btw, the light is a pattern match of your iris... :)
Я услышал этот трек в 2000 году примерно в плеере диске. Прошло 23 года, а слышу как в первый раз. Мурашки по коже, не только у меня, а кто слышет этот божественный трек. Это искусство музыкального произведения!
This Song is a Drug all by itself. Never in my life have I been taken to an ethereal plane by just a song until this. Been a classic and mainstay of mine for many years now ❤️
I remember waiting every day for MTV Europe to play this video, and whenever it came on I was so mesmerized not only by the song and its vocals, but also by the video for some reason. 2002 was truly the last great year for trance music.
I always loved this old trance song and the different interpretations of the video. To me, the woman (model) is unhappy in the superficial, materialistic world and feels like she doesn’t belong on this earth plane. As if she came from else where, longing for something more, otherworldly. She escapes, runs into the forest, finds a box on the forest floor from another planet, and morphs into her original form, which is a child; Innocent, and unscathed by the world. She then travels back to outerspace (or an other worldly dimension) to her original Home. Then turns into a Pure energy Burst of Light, as her essence/being dissipates and scatters into the universe, back to its original form, which is formless.
"The box" could be a representation of the Black Cube of Saturn. They are everywhere in the world: The UK, Australia, the Twin Towers memorial, in Mecca, and what Jews wear on their heads. It has a lot of symbolism in religions! From being a representation of the material world through to the dark magic of Satanism... I'd say it wasn't accidental. 😁
It's more inspired by 2001 to me. The black monolith and how Dave Bowman goes on a trippy light fantastic journey through space/time which ultimately reverts him to a child and then to an essence.
Love this song !!! Piece by piece I release Once was mine Now undone Turned blue Like New Orleans And went down like A southern sun I still feel you Beneath my skin I am tempted To throw my senses in Cause it's easier to fly Than to face another day In Southern Sun And your love is all around Piece by piece I release Once was mine Now undone Turned blue like New Orleans And went down like A southern sun I still feel you Beneath my skin I am tempted To throw my senses in Cause it's easier to fly Than to face another day In Southern Sun And your love is all around And in the air to set me free Set me free You last like a sun I'm deflated I am pieces on the wind Unrelated I still feel you Beneath my skin I am tempted To throw my senses in Cause it's easier to fly Than to face another day In southern sun And your love is all around In the air to set me free Cause it's easier to fly And in the air to set me free
It's funny how life is full of these experiences that we take for granted. This song brings me back to a time of pure innocence that I did not cherish, and it flew by so quickly.
Fun times, memory of Fun times, hills, snowboarding, surfing, trance dancing Leland City Club Detroit, club Visgae in Orlando.....and other such scenario's... 🕊️
This song is like a whole Universe and the rainbow of all emotions that a man can experience being in love. ❣️❣️❣️ Outstanding music. 👏👏👏 Bravo, Paul. Still love your song. My most favourite of your art. Thank you. 🌹🌹🌹
Почему слушая песни тех лет вспоминаешь что было тогда и понимаешь как быстро идет время,когда то видики были с кассетами и это было лучшее время в жизни и никогда оно не вернется!!!!!!
Лучшее время - юность, это самое лучшее время в жизни любого человека, а всё что при этом было и почему ностальгируется потом не более чем синдром утёнка
Jesus I was listening this on my sister's phone when I was about 6 years old,and I have found this again after 9 years when I'm living my trance era.I love it!Thanks for the upload!
I remember when PO released Bunkka. Southern Sun, of course, was my favorite track of the album. Still is 20 years later. But I was always fascinated by how much of a departure this is from, say, maybe his earlier album, Tranceport. Very eclectic to say the least.
Wow 20 años ya tiene ésta canción, todavía suena muy actual y mucho mejor que la música de hoy en día. Siempre por las noches en MTV esperaba ver el video al igual que Ready Steady Go.

there's a feeling you can't describe in words when you listen to this track 😇
Oh Yes , its Magical 🥂🍓
It make me sad as you said feelings you cant describe make me remember old days😔
@@andresburgos9463 we had a looot of words to describe those days
Ya that’s the 2000s feeling
True
Пол, сотвори такой же трек.......
Этот нет сил больше слушать.........
Он великолепен!
After 17 years and still Epic!! Thanks Mr Paul For The Music..!!
Now 18
First time I've seen the video clip of this amazing song. And it included the light!
So everyone, here is how you see the light, with your own actual physical eyes, facebook.com/thelightislove/
Btw, the light is a pattern match of your iris... :)
I agree! Been on my playlist for over 10 years
God damn right! Till eternity
Too true

Окенфольд Бог
Недооценённый шедевр. Слушала песню эту в 4-5 года. Сейчас мне почти 23... Это просто невероятные ощущения
трек 2002 года
мне нра Тиесто римейк на эту также 9 мин кажетсо длитсо 😊❤😊❤😊 и там 7:35 то что вы ищите дримеры :)
@@ВкалываловоИшаловоБатралово Согласен! Ремикс Тиесто офигенный. Но оригинал круче. Именно его звучание грандиозно и бессмертно. Классика!
Сколько лет прошло... а трек все качает и воодушевляет! =)
💯😊❤
magic forever
Gold Era of Classic Trance
Breakbeat
Шедевр! Именно этот трек. Аж мурашки по коже... Ностальгия! Эх, молодость... Наверное у каждого композитора есть своя дипломная работа. Очень круто!
И у каждого ностальгия))

the same here
Thank you for putting it into words. I wanted to make this comment earlier, but I couldn't describe it. It makes you high.
Back to memories from 2002, when the music was good,
So many years, so many emotions.... Southern Sun...
I have the same feeling. Nostalgia runs through my soul.

2009
@@ericeric5652 I agree, 1994-2009 was the best time for dance music especially trance.
@Papa Burgundy nah, by then it was mostly generic trash with the odd gem. Far past its peak era of 1996-2002.
That really depends on the style of trance. Psy Trance certainly peaked back then but vocal trance continues to evolve.

Volvera mi fe en el buen gusto de la gente si alguien mas esta escuchando este temazo en el 2024.
Aquí men desde la cdmx. Nunca la he dejado de escuchar aunque me gusta más el remix con tiesto
Desde la Florida en el 2024!👍🏼
Тебя услышали из доброй России ❤❤❤

The sound of the times back then. Man I miss those times and the world we lived in.

❤❤❤❤❤❤ 2024 and still one of the best tracks
Absolutely. It is epic!
Странное ощущение от этого шедевра! Слушая ее как будто находишься в другой реальности
транс для этого и создавался
Тоже самое. Словно ощущаешь всю Вселенную. 😭😍
Спасибо тебе Пол за такой трек! Трек на века....
Согласен! Слушал, когда мне было 16... Сегодня уже 34
Я постарше буду...но такая же история.Хорошая песня!!!
а я подпою зериз ааа из виз ююю и замедленная сьемка
Такие воспоминания нахлынули ...., Пол мне именно этой песней запомнился.
наверное, потом Armin вдохновился и решил сделать свой - In And Out Of Love))
Carla Werner has an angel voice, awesome!
2002 my last pure summer of my life...
Andreas Spanos Sad:/
I think I kind of agree, Andreas
Same here all the way to 2004
Чувак....
Μέχρι κ το 2004 θα έλεγα bro
Love this song !!!
Piece by piece
I release
Once was mine
Now undone
Turned blue
Like New Orleans
And went down like
A southern sun
I still feel you
Beneath my skin
I am tempted
To throw my senses in
Cause it's easier to fly
Than to face another day
In Southern Sun
And your love is all around
Piece by piece
I release
Once was mine
Now undone
Turned blue like New Orleans
And went down like
A southern sun
I still feel you
Beneath my skin
I am tempted
To throw my senses in
Cause it's easier to fly
Than to face another day
In Southern Sun
And your love is all around
And in the air to set me free
Set me free
You last like a sun
I'm deflated
I am pieces on the wind
Unrelated
I still feel you
Beneath my skin
I am tempted
To throw my senses in
Cause it's easier to fly
Than to face another day
In southern sun
And your love is all around
In the air to set me free
Cause it's easier to fly
And in the air to set me free
Thank U 4 Sharing
😍
That part hits me when she says “it is easier to fly then to face another day”.... set me free”
The one of the DJ's who made 90's happen, the living legend of trance who keeps on giving his talented gifts to the world, PAUL OAKENFOLDDDDDDDDDDD :)
Over 20 years ago and this tune still brings me to tears!
It's funny how life is full of these experiences that we take for granted. This song brings me back to a time of pure innocence that I did not cherish, and it flew by so quickly.
This track is ethereal and casts a spell that won't let you get away with just listening once.
I think 2002 was a great year and it has lots of memories to cherish for everyone.
What a beautiful trance song. Wish music sounded like this these days
Послушал этот трек детстве было мне лет 10 и осталось она у меня в душе... Спасибо творчеству Пауэль Оакенфольд доживу до пенсии не забуду
Много хороших треков у него!
Джеймс лавелли тоже класс!
Посмотрите перевод песни, очень интересно
И мне было 10
а мне было 17 лет )))
Fun times, memory of Fun times, hills, snowboarding, surfing, trance dancing Leland City Club Detroit, club Visgae in Orlando.....and other such scenario's... 🕊️
20+ years later it still makes my heart soar.
This perfect tune really hits in the nerve. Piece of unforgettable nostalgia.
Thank God for Mr. Paul Oakenfold. One of the best songs on planet earth.
Несомненно это один из лучших треков! У меня от него мурашки по телу! )
У меня тоже самое))
Шикарный)
Не сомненно шедевр!!!
2001. ..2002 в мировых чартах номер 1.👏
I saw Paul Oakenfold play this track at the Taj Mahal in AC when I was 16. I'm now 30 and it still gives me chills whenever I hear it❤
This song still hits them feels all these years later.
Такая пронизающаеся песня.Прям в детство уносит.На дворе 2024,но при прослушевании данной композиции,улетаешь в далекий 2002 год.
ГЕНИАЛЬНЫЙ ТАЛАНТ --- СУПЕР ТРЕК.
Согласна.
Remember listening to this while living in San Francisco circa '99 riding the bus...always took me into another world, just like now ❤️❤️❤️
Man, it's stuff like this that makes me so excited for the end of November. iykyk
Classic ... Still brings tears to my eyes
Gay
Same😭
Electronic Anthen from Paul and ethereal vocals by Carla , eternal music gem
From all this corona madness this song brightness my mind but at the same time makes me feel sad.
Не ссы, прорвемся )
This song almost 20 years makes me feel happy
@@ВзадКАЛектора Hehe bylo by neploho 4tob vse bystree proshlo )))
Usually it brings me the same feelings just like you , happiness and sadness at the same time .
Same feeling here :( So many years....... I miss the naive simplicity of that tracks
The vocals on this still gives me the chills👌
The best track for me for many years. Not only from Paul. The best track at all! Better can be only some remixes, but main theme is always on top!
Fantastic music, I'm flying on the clouds over the whole world
Me too.
That moment around 0:50 when suddenly the track stands in full bloom without fancy buildup trickery is just mind blowing. Love it so much
so great!
супер видеоклип-я его миллион раз посмотрел
Man!! This tune never gets old, Oakenfold was immense a ways back
This song is like a whole Universe and the rainbow of all emotions that a man can experience being in love. ❣️❣️❣️ Outstanding music. 👏👏👏 Bravo, Paul. Still love your song. My most favourite of your art. Thank you. 🌹🌹🌹
I got Bunkka cd album and Southern sun is my fave track on this album!!!
Me starry eyed surprise and this song very cool
Agreed but it's also a great album. I bought the Bunkka CD in 2002
Magical.
Почему слушая песни тех лет вспоминаешь что было тогда и понимаешь как быстро идет время,когда то видики были с кассетами и это было лучшее время в жизни и никогда оно не вернется!!!!!!
A tip : you can watch series at flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching lots of of movies recently.
@Ty Finnegan Yea, I have been watching on Flixzone} for years myself :)
Никогда брат
😭😭😭
Лучшее время - юность, это самое лучшее время в жизни любого человека, а всё что при этом было и почему ностальгируется потом не более чем синдром утёнка
Every hair stands on end when I hear this absolute classic. I close my eyes and I'm Right back in San Antonio ❤️❤️❤️
Этот мастер сформировал мой вкус. Привет из России. Всем мира и добра)
Jesus I was listening this on my sister's phone when I was about 6 years old,and I have found this again after 9 years when I'm living my trance era.I love it!Thanks for the upload!
Oh God holy sheep shit he was busy
Timeless classic
Сколько лет слушаю и всегда в мурашках, один из лучших вокал транс
Согласна. ❤
Absolutely amazing...
Paul Oakenfold is one of the best producers and Dj ever!
Волшебный трэк 2020
febrero del 2019 los recuerdos siguen y creo que estarán ahí por siempre,excelente track. extraño esa época
Que hermosura de música, las palabras quedan de más para describirla.
Beatiful ❤
Nostalgia 🥺🎼❤️Throwback Track

Llevaba como 10 años sin escuchar esta obra de arte
2024 is online. Still this masterpiece is for ever. Greetings from Ukraine
🇺🇦🇰🇬💖Я свой человек
Probably the most underrated song ever.
@Mysterio superb track
Definitely agree.
Honestly might be. It transcends every genre I can’t explain the mood this song puts you through. God bless Oakenfold and good music
Most underrated songs never made to MTV (this one did), or TOP 10 charts (this one did), or had a semi-decent music video (this one does).
So true
Melancólica e hipnotizante la voz con la música. Evoca nostalgia y te conecta a lo profundo de tu alma
просто супер!
Geniussss!!!!!!
Когда услышал ремикс этой песни на рекорде,там шел подкаст транс музыки, он просто взорвал мне голову! Мурашки по телу ...
Wow I was 15 years old now 33 gawd I was in another world another time I'm back in listening to this again
Got to see Paul, in DC, at a fairly weak festival, but he WAS the highlight of the night. Always an Oaky fan!!
Absolutely beautiful song!!!! Brings me back to a simpler time in my life
Just utterly sublime and blissful. It near brings me to tears with its utter perfection ❤️😭❤️😭
One must feel the warmth this music brings to you.
From this track I fall in love with trance!
Любимый трек!!!
Вот бы улететь высоко как после прослушивания трека в 9 лет😢❤
Шедевр электронной музыки🎉
I've been listening to this song every day for 15 years, it really touches my heart and I love my wife.
this song must be the hymn of the world..epic
шедевральная работа, сформировавшая вкус👏
ЭТО СУПЕР ТРЕК ; ПАУЛЬ ОКЕНФОЛД - ЛУЧШИЙ.
Always come back to this beauty and it evokes the same nostalgia from the first listen back in 2002 ❤
I'm still drawn to this track form Paul.
LOVE IT!!!
I've listened to this song ten thousand times and I'm still not sure how I feel about it....
I saw Paul back in 2000 at Pacha club in Ibiza. Probably one of the most memorable parties I've ever lived! 😍
Through the years this song is still soooooo good 💜
Awesome track,my youth anthem.Still nothing else to compare those days we have now.
One of the very best trance tracks ever!
Wow 20 años ya tiene ésta canción, todavía suena muy actual y mucho mejor que la música de hoy en día.
Siempre por las noches en MTV esperaba ver el video al igual que Ready Steady Go.
Ностальгия с ног сшибает))
I will miss those times🤯❤️
Great memories every time I hear this song 😃
