Wow, just discovered this, and the timing for finding this couldn’t have been better. I’m 22, and despite losing my job from covid, I decided it was time to make massive change in my life, so a couple weeks ago I moved across the US with only three suit cases and a couple thousand. I feel like the song/video perfectly embody that inexplicable feeling you get when you’re maintaining so much hope for so long without even having a concrete reason to, but you do anyway. To hear this for the first time in my first (empty) apartment 2,500 miles from home was absolutely surreal, and feels like it just marked the start of something new. Maybe this is an overshare, but I can’t think of another video that touched me the way this one did and just thought I’d share the experience 🙂
You rigourously stepped out of your comfort zone - such courageous decisions in life always pay off. Good luck man, i wish you all the best! (All the way from the Netherlands :-)
I gotta say, I usually do my best to avoid comments sections on the internet, but hearing somebody open up and be vulnerable and then seeing anonymous commenters being both positive and supportive just gives me hope :) Thanks for not being haters!!!
I'm glad we all of us strangers from many parts of the globe get to experience this unexplainable spark and feeling together. We all will never meet but we still feel connected through art like these
The synthesizer harmonics ,which start full on at about 3:13 resonate to the human soul. it s connecting you to your inner self and the universe. I start tripping every time i listen to it- without the use of drugs. Well done Jamie xx
The vibes in this song gave me goosebumps- especially toward the end. It’s hard to explain but it’s puts me in such a zone a lot of songs have never been able to
Yes, i agree, i used it for my "Chanel-Trailer"...soo good ! ...i remember first i have seen just a couple of seconds in a shoe or clothing commercial, maybe " Under Armour".......
I feel like everyone here is trying to explain an emotion that no word can explain and everyone is curious about the thoughts of others. This beat has in itself something very strongly mystical.
I felt the same way. I cried the first time I heard the track. But not out of sadness or joy. it's a sense of understanding. I just don't know what understanding.
Saw Jamie for the first time at Coachella this year, and my god was I blown away. His music made me feel a sense of hope, freedom, and warmth all the same time. What a time..
@@raiduk You gotta watch that making video it gives me chills! especially the close up shot inside the car transitioning outside and running infront of the car!
What an absolute tune! Just discovered this and immediately took me back to burning around in my first car (early 90s) with my mates listening to drum and base cassette tapes with the MCs giving it the 'Oh My Gosh'! Then the whole sublime tune built around it, this will be a permanent addition to my playlists
This is the best video I've ever seen in my entire life. I've been sitting in front of the laptop staring at the black screen for like half an hour since I watched it. I'm shocked. I mean. How deep and beautiful this is.
Каждый раз, Боже, каждый раз у меня нет слов, чтобы выразить всё моё восхищение от гениальности музыки, видеоряда и идеальности их сочетания! Сколько лет я периодически возвращаюсь сюда, чтобы испытать этот невероятный опыт, почувствовать это бешеное удовольствие, до мурашек. Ребята, вы - гении, таланты, мастера! Спасибо, что создали этот шедевр, это невероятно!
Man, this music video has some of the most breathtaking visuals I have ever seen. You just can't help but get hypnotized. Also, fun fact: This was directed by the same guy that did the music video for "No Church In The Wild."
Jamie x: So, ill need about 5 albino models, a blue Subaru and about 10,000 Asian kids to chase them through dystopian Paris. Management: ...you got it, Jamie
I was waiting for someone to start rapping, and I'm so glad no one did. This is beautiful, artistically, visually, and just wow. Mind blown at the beauty of this.
Talking about strangest things you should look at "the circle of death" that the ants do and no one knows why. when the chinese kids start circling around the albino guy it reminded me of this
Those synth lead melodies toward the end are so good, especially with the fat bass synth droning underneath. IMO 2:58 onward is totally awesome. Sort of vaguely reminds me of the intro to that Orbital track "Belfast".
I'm here because a documentary on Netflix called "High: Confessions of an Ibiza Drug Mule" didn't watch the film just a clip and heard this song and had to walk to the depths of hell just to find it. It's crazy the things you do for love. We just met and I am already falling head over heels. This song was part of my destiny. It was already written. We just had to play out our parts.
For some reason after a few days of listening to this song it started to put tears into my eyes when the synth started. It’s a song that gives the feeling of HOPE and nothing else.
You are confusing emotions or feelings... it is not HOPE, the sensation is that of MELANCHOLY... I will use the words given on a lecture by a spritual medium : "Every human being senses an inner longing that goes deeper than the longings for emotional and creative fulfillment. This longing comes from sensing that another, more fulfilling state of consciousness and a larger capacity to experience life must exist.” Pathwork lecture 204
@@daniluchison This... This is exactly what I'm experiencing, and you just put it perfectly into words, describing precisely how I have been wholeheartedly feeling for years and years. Thank you so much my friend, thank you so much. I can't believe my own human experience has been described to me. God bless you.
It's a "piece" of "music" there is no singing involved. That's why the term "piece of music" was invented. Folks on classical stations often refer to them simply as a "piece" This is a good example of the difference between song and music
This is a work of art, especially as a combination. The video and music works so well together. Can't even describe how much or how many different emotions I felt throughout the piece every time I experience it. Not just listen to it, I would use the word experience.
This song was playing in the uber on my way home after a guy broke my heart. All I remember was crying my lil heart out and hearing those synths. Don’t think I’ve ever found a song that resonated with me so much - uncertainty, fear, despair... but above all HOPE that in the end everything will be ok.
The second half of this song makes me feel like my mind has all become clear and that everything is starting to make sense and fall into place. Great song and incredible video.
I found this video the day I broke up with my ex, this video healed so much for me man. She was in Paris at the time, enjoy the eifel tower now you stupid bitch.
This piece of music echoes throughout the universe when a big moment has arisen upon the horizon for humanity and earth at large. May us all rejoice during this sublime, visceral and remarkable experience - one of enlightenment, fulfillment and reletentless triumph. May God bless you all, my friends, in this beautiful universe we call life. At the end, when all is said and done, we are together - and then we'll be okay, and all will be okay.
"We have come to the conclusion that the people of the early 21st century liked cars, sleeping and walking around in circles around strange monuments."
this tune is made for people like me when they are down, cant sleep, have night terrors, cant focus and suicidal and just brings the energy back to fight.
The first half of the song is: Courage, Fight and War. The second half of the song is: Hope, Peace and Triumph. For me is the most perfect song of the last Decade.
@@goh02 100% even the video is very clever to me . The way I perceive it is the guy is alone and down but his friends feel the similar way without each other knowing, have their own demons. They are all in white to show they are like guardian angels and show him the way to realise that there is support of many surrounding him. He feels like nothing but is actually something special to many 🥲
This is such a powerful piece. I get the chills and it feels so triumphant towards the end. I close my eyes and feel myself rise out of whatever negativity I'm feeling. So much power.
iskander x yeah, I also think that it is easier to do this stuff if you have so many means and money, but still other directors also have great budgets and put out some generic trash videos
There are too many people doing the same thing right now. Whenever somebody makes videos, films, or photographs about China, they are all like this. One of the famous movie makers in China named Jia Zhangke has been doing it for decades, if you're interested check it out.
Amazing camera work at 1:51 panning those faces inside the Subaru then pulling out and away on that chase in one unedited shot. WTF !!! Kudos to the direction of Romain Gavras ♫ Best music video award ♫
i can remember when i first come across this music i ended using it for a show in high school where i was teaching as opening salvo..how the kids came up with the dance choreography and the nostalgia it evoked by then was amazing i was close to tears in how beautiful this song created that moment.
I love the whole song but my favorite part has to be between minutes 1:51 and 2:26 when they get into the blue car. The music there is just...so calm and serene. A one-hour-mix of that would be awesome.
You keep the vibe alive JamieXX - truly appreciate your gift of art and music, " Gosh" ,touches my soul brother. Happy New Year! ..... every time I come back to this masterpiece , I feel it has all the elements for a music video award- love ya Jamie
I just found this song like a week before i knew i was going to see them live on a Music Festival. It’s nice how life throws you good music and gives you right away the experience to enjoy it LIVE ✨
It have a heartbeat in that part, with an effect that remembers us when we heard ours moms heartbeat inside her womb, and them this heartbeat slows and turns in the kick, such a masterpiece and I don't even know if this was on purpose
Have you ever experienced goosebumps come in waves...this what this song does to me. It also makes me think that everything will workout somehow because everything is important and nothing is at the same time.

I heard this visceral piece for the first time on the plane. In that moment, when the synths came in, I felt like I had finally reconciled with the clouds above me, with the universe, with heaven, and with God. I wish I could experience this piece for the first time again. It has a phenomenal, reletentlessly triumphant level of sublimity that I cannot begin to comprehend - one that fills me with emotions that help me see the major events in our world on the horizon, with the knowledge that eventually, we will all be okay.
They were able to do it because it's kind of an empty complex with not a lot of regular residents. It's the "Sky City" in Tianducheng, China. They have many developments built and still being built to mimic the world's main attractions.
I feel this exact same way. It truly is remarkable and I am so glad we have all rejoiced here in this moment. I wholeheartedly provide that same universality back to you, my friend. Thank you so much, from the bottom of my soul. May God bless you and humanity with eternal love. And to that, I give you much love in return.
Ran to his set at coachella to hear at least ten minutes of his set and he ended it by playing this song. Hearing this live was so rewarding. I am now a fan
I dunno why. But every single time I watch this video I start feeling so overwhelmed when the kids first surround him and they cut to his face and the look in his eyes makes me literally cry like I can feel what he was feeling in that moment. Its better than any drug has ever made me feel. I’ve chased many highs trying to achieve what I found watching this video.
For those who have not understood anything in the meaning of this clip. In many countries in sub-Saharan Africa, people with albinism are regularly victims of homicide, they are targets of ritual killings. i lived in africa for 4 years, the population rejects albinism. The number of person albinism that I could meet in the street unemployed proves that they are rejected by the population. I am very proud to see artists defending abinism. They are people like you and me. I hope this clip will change the mentalitys for the liberty for equality
Still in 2018 the world is still focusing on superficial layers of flesh colour, rather than emotions, or skills. Defend those who are rejected for being not same as the crowds.
Just because you lived there doesn't mean you get it. I'm guessing you're white and not actually African, and I'm also guessing you haven't lived in the sub-saharan part because you seem to think Africa is a country, like whites tend to do lmao. They don't "reject" albinism. This artist isn't "defending" albinism either. They're more fetishizing than anything else... know the difference, fool...
How cool another post calling others fools. Keep your cursing to yourself. If you think there is a hint that shows that Africa is mentioned as a country, look through again. I have had friends that have been rejected by whites and friends that have been rejected by blacks. This thing with superficial layers of flesh colour has been holding progress of the world back, for way too long. My post was a comment to GAB RU, to whom my reply to is, rather than the video. GAB RU has mentioned a fact: people with albinism are regularly victims of homicide. If you relate my reply and focus more, probably then you will relate my reply to the subject of discussion rather to the viedo itself. So please pay attention before calling others fools. Have a good day.
modus pwnens : you guessing wrong about me and i have nothing to prove to you. I'm just here to say a fact, whether you like it or not, so thank you for keeping your comments presumptuous for you, and thanks to pay attention before calling others fools it is not a comment of a person hidden behind his computer that will make me forget something that I could see there, especially in sub-Saharan area
there was something so surreal about when this came out. The time. It seems to capture a unique vibe from then. The progressive beats and sound to the point where its right in your ear, gives this eery feeling of hope and love for that time. 2010-2014 ish. i graduated highschool in 2014 and not shortly after began finding more and more artists like this in electronic and dance etc... Future type music... one day i will be in my eighties and most likely hear this song and tear up.
When this video came out I was dating a girl from Paris, our relationship fell apart while she studied abroad in China and the haunted vibes in a replica of Paris in this video matched my feelings perfectly
Thank you Industry for introducing me to this magical piece. I've heard of Jamie XX before, but this was eye opening. I can't think of a song that's ever had me so entranced instantly.
I've been listening to this song for years with my wife and it still puts us in a world of its own with an atmospheric dynamic that cant be explained. And the video is a work of art that underlines this atmosphere. THANK YOU!
A song that touches you on an emotional level. It is interpreted different by a lot of people but what everyone can agree on is this track affected your emotions. Truly beautiful.
The director of this video said ultimately it is about a young man starting to wake up spiritually while everyone around him, and society remains asleep. The end half is him leaving everyone behind him as he begins to embark on a new journey. The blonde look alike children represent the universe supporting him and his journey, and is sort of like a send off. Probably the most beautiful video ive ever seen.
I remember Jamie playing this at Falls Festival 2014, some 4-5 months before it got a release. Standing on the hill looking down at the stage with my girlfriend at the time, peaking my head off, almost in tears just in awe of how good it sounded, that bass vibrating through my chest. Good memories lol
Yeah no green screen man. All filmed in a rather empty Chinese city than is a recreation of Paris. The city itself really helps to make this video beautiful but still a little eery. Kind of like 28 days later.
If anyone else was curious about the filming location, it's Tianducheng (Sky City), a Paris-themed community in Hangzhou, China. The tower in the center is a 1:3 scale replica of the Eiffel Tower. Also, if you haven't seen it yet, look for this song's second official music video. It's great too. If you see Mars near the start, you found the right one.
That's cool, I just seriously wish all countries would just create their own thing instead of mimicking others. You be you I guess is what I'm saying, starting to finally see that with China in some ways but universally its not a competition, we are all on limited time.
Господи, сколько же удовольствия я получаю от этого каждый раз, это просто невероятно! Идеально всё, до секунды кадра и малейшего звука, это гениальная работа!
For anyone seeing this I'm a struggling artist with a lot to lose. This song really puts me in a good space, even with the struggle life isn't that hard. So for anyone reading and struggling keep yourself going you got this!! The struggle is meant to happen before it goes away just to test ya strength. I love you all keep the energy High!

I found this video the day I broke up with my ex, this video healed so much for me man. She was in Paris at the time, enjoy the eifel tower now you stupid bitch.

This tune and video gives me a very good satisfaction of melancholy. I love it. Thank you Jamie xx and Romain.
This song will never get old or forgotten. This song is a soul healer
This piece of music echoes throughout the universe when a big moment has arisen upon the horizon for humanity and earth at large. May us all rejoice during this sublime, visceral and remarkable experience - one of enlightenment, fulfillment and reletentless triumph. May God bless you all, my friends, in this beautiful universe we call life. At the end, when all is said and done, we are together - and then we'll be okay, and all will be okay.

This whole song is like a painting of an artist living 700 years in the future and is trying to compose what and who we were.
"We have come to the conclusion that the people of the early 21st century liked cars, sleeping and walking around in circles around strange monuments."
@@colinr0380 Damn dem aliens are spot on bruh! Having your child slaves worship and dance around you is in right now
@@colinr0380 Sounds about right lol
So happy to see people discovering this song. One of my all time fav from Jamie XX

Where is the original video
this tune is made for people like me when they are down, cant sleep, have night terrors, cant focus and suicidal and just brings the energy back to fight.
Enough energy to fight back.
The first half of the song is: Courage, Fight and War.
The second half of the song is: Hope, Peace and Triumph.
For me is the most perfect song of the last Decade.
@@goh02 100% even the video is very clever to me . The way I perceive it is the guy is alone and down but his friends feel the similar way without each other knowing, have their own demons. They are all in white to show they are like guardian angels and show him the way to realise that there is support of many surrounding him. He feels like nothing but is actually something special to many 🥲
Fight the feelin bro ✊
@@goh02 right now in China! People protesting against the CCP. I hope they keep up the pressure.
This is such a powerful piece. I get the chills and it feels so triumphant towards the end. I close my eyes and feel myself rise out of whatever negativity I'm feeling. So much power.

Romain Gavras always makes some kind of fucking epic videos
well, given the budgets he works on...
He used a chinese ghost town somewhere in suburban area of China that the government do not give a damn ,nice .
iskander x yeah, I also think that it is easier to do this stuff if you have so many means and money, but still other directors also have great budgets and put out some generic trash videos
Thought the video was quite brilliant but had no idea it was Gavras until this comment. And well, makes sense now. Guy is a brilliant mind.
There are too many people doing the same thing right now. Whenever somebody makes videos, films, or photographs about China, they are all like this. One of the famous movie makers in China named Jia Zhangke has been doing it for decades, if you're interested check it out.
Amazing camera work at 1:51 panning those faces inside the Subaru then pulling out and away on that chase in one unedited shot. WTF !!! Kudos to the direction of Romain Gavras ♫ Best music video award ♫
Can anyone explain to me how that bit is filmed? It's incredible!
any examples?
Kudos to the DP
Honestly blew my mind! Was something out of an arthouse movie
there's a well hidden cut when he steps around the door of the car
i can remember when i first come across this music i ended using it for a show in high school where i was teaching as opening salvo..how the kids came up with the dance choreography and the nostalgia it evoked by then was amazing i was close to tears in how beautiful this song created that moment.
I love the whole song but my favorite part has to be between minutes 1:51 and 2:26 when they get into the blue car. The music there is just...so calm and serene. A one-hour-mix of that would be awesome.
Listen to Stone In Focus by Aphex Twin!
@@victormeas7898 wow, that might have actually been the best song i've ever heard in that genre! Thank you, got anymore artist like this?
@@RJfreekicks try 8 Billion by Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross
So the same, I'd drive forever to keep them safe
It's "Darker than this" from Emily Mosseri
This song sound like the feeling when you are coming up. Excitement, tension, but chill at the same time.
@Jmacpegasus :(
You keep the vibe alive JamieXX - truly appreciate your gift of art and music, " Gosh" ,touches my soul brother. Happy New Year! ..... every time I come back to this masterpiece , I feel it has all the elements for a music video award- love ya Jamie
I just found this song like a week before i knew i was going to see them live on a Music Festival. It’s nice how life throws you good music and gives you right away the experience to enjoy it LIVE ✨
What festival was it and where?
The part at 1:51 gives me goosebumps every time I listen to this song. I wish this version made the album.
I wish that part never ended.
Just came from Spotify version because it doesn't have this break. It's sublime
It have a heartbeat in that part, with an effect that remembers us when we heard ours moms heartbeat inside her womb, and them this heartbeat slows and turns in the kick, such a masterpiece and I don't even know if this was on purpose
@@JDFevery good point!
Have you ever experienced goosebumps come in waves...this what this song does to me. It also makes me think that everything will workout somehow because everything is important and nothing is at the same time.
This piece of music echoes throughout the universe when a big moment has arisen upon the horizon for humanity and earth at large.

I can't remember when last time I enjoyed a music video clip. This is a masterpiece in every detail.
Dont know if you like this song, but this is the most impressive clip i know: Weval - Someday (th-cam.com/video/n-wEvzqdDZg/w-d-xo.html)
@@bas_ee Reminds me Max Coopers works which you would need to go through as his clips vary pretty much but here are examples:
m.th-cam.com/video/nO9aot9RgQc/w-d-xo.html

@@bas_ee This one is of similar concept like the one you sent me:
m.th-cam.com/video/GvwayRd9gbw/w-d-xo.html
And this clip somehow resets and is soothing my eyes if I can describe it this way:
m.th-cam.com/video/kdQuFdlfStk/w-d-xo.html
true
Try this one: th-cam.com/video/nxg4C365LbQ/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=R113
The fact that the first scene of the video showing those guys wearing VR is a prediction of our present is simply mind blowing
Thanks Jamie, for keeping the vibe alive.
yeah dude, feed your head!
When I first heard this song I was mindblown that music could even sound like this. It always sticks in my mind for hours, days even.
You should check out rone
me too
I heard this visceral piece for the first time on the plane. In that moment, when the synths came in, I felt like I had finally reconciled with the clouds above me, with the universe, with heaven, and with God. I wish I could experience this piece for the first time again. It has a phenomenal, reletentlessly triumphant level of sublimity that I cannot begin to comprehend - one that fills me with emotions that help me see the major events in our world on the horizon, with the knowledge that eventually, we will all be okay.
I was high when I first heard this and I thought I gone to heven. It's a exceptionally beautiful piece of music. Almost spiritual.

2:12 the lfo on the synth syncs up with the actor swinging the door open which is just incredibly fire
this is one of those unique songs you found on a random tour ... you didn't skip it, you will never forget it, it's mind blowing
true shit
It’s hard for me to watch this video without crying. It’s so inexplicably beautiful.
Same, it just happens. It's beautiful!
This is one of the most impressive music videos I have ever seen. Incredible piece of art
This song made me cry the first time I heard it ❤❤
This has got to be one of the greatest music videos ever made
It is truly stunning. It doesn't even look like a music video, it's more like a big budget sci fi event!
Only to realize after watching the video and digging further that this used no CGI whatsoever = Mind blown.
Robert Volmer no way. That opening shot with every window full of people even!? Now I have to dig!

How is that so hard to believe?
They were able to do it because it's kind of an empty complex with not a lot of regular residents. It's the "Sky City" in Tianducheng, China. They have many developments built and still being built to mimic the world's main attractions.
Oh yeah! how do you explain the cars shifting in movement at the top left of the screen starting @ 5:00. Conspiracy dun dun dun... lol
The bit where the car drives over the grand canyon (massive pot hole) really hit me in my soul. I literally felt it. Great song
This experience we all share is truly remarkable.
Much love to all of you watching this masterpiece.
I feel this exact same way. It truly is remarkable and I am so glad we have all rejoiced here in this moment.
I wholeheartedly provide that same universality back to you, my friend. Thank you so much, from the bottom of my soul. May God bless you and humanity with eternal love. And to that, I give you much love in return.
I agree 👍
I dont know what is going on in this clip. Its little weird but i like it. very interesting ...
🎉🥰♥️
Love you y👍💕
Ran to his set at coachella to hear at least ten minutes of his set and he ended it by playing this song. Hearing this live was so rewarding. I am now a fan
When was this?
@@Lenky01 sunday weekend 2 of coachella
Jamie is a don. Welcome to the fold
i want to feel that Setting too. sounds awesome. I hope u stand right in front of a Big Boombox
I dunno why. But every single time I watch this video I start feeling so overwhelmed when the kids first surround him and they cut to his face and the look in his eyes makes me literally cry like I can feel what he was feeling in that moment. Its better than any drug has ever made me feel. I’ve chased many highs trying to achieve what I found watching this video.
coffein is not a real drug
Try candyflipping
I feel you.This video in combinatie with the track is super intense.This is the best video ever made in my opinion.
Oh my gosh ez ez
You need better drugs.
This is by far, the best music video on existence. The song is as good as the video. Love it.
Something about this song is so mesmerising, especially when the tune changes from 3:15
Woaaaa my favourite part!!
@@_yurasan SAME !
Sammeeee!!!!!
At some point we ask, was the music video made for the song? Or was the song made for the music video.
I listened to the song before watching the music video but after watching it, I also have the same question.
The correct answer is yes
That's when you know a director/editor has made a job well done.
There is another equally amazing official video.
You must have not seen Chris Cunningham's m. videos.
For those who have not understood anything in the meaning of this clip. In many countries in sub-Saharan Africa, people with albinism are regularly victims of homicide, they are targets of ritual killings. i lived in africa for 4 years, the population rejects albinism. The number of person albinism that I could meet in the street unemployed proves that they are rejected by the population. I am very proud to see artists defending abinism. They are people like you and me. I hope this clip will change the mentalitys
for the liberty
for equality
Really sad and disappointing fact...
Still in 2018 the world is still focusing on superficial layers of flesh colour, rather than emotions, or skills. Defend those who are rejected for being not same as the crowds.
Just because you lived there doesn't mean you get it. I'm guessing you're white and not actually African, and I'm also guessing you haven't lived in the sub-saharan part because you seem to think Africa is a country, like whites tend to do lmao. They don't "reject" albinism. This artist isn't "defending" albinism either. They're more fetishizing than anything else... know the difference, fool...
How cool another post calling others fools. Keep your cursing to yourself. If you think there is a hint that shows that Africa is mentioned as a country, look through again. I have had friends that have been rejected by whites and friends that have been rejected by blacks. This thing with superficial layers of flesh colour has been holding progress of the world back, for way too long. My post was a comment to GAB RU, to whom my reply to is, rather than the video. GAB RU has mentioned a fact: people with albinism are regularly victims of homicide. If you relate my reply and focus more, probably then you will relate my reply to the subject of discussion rather to the viedo itself. So please pay attention before calling others fools. Have a good day.
modus pwnens : you guessing wrong about me and i have nothing to prove to you. I'm just here to say a fact, whether you like it or not, so thank you for keeping your comments presumptuous for you, and thanks to pay attention before calling others fools
it is not a comment of a person hidden behind his computer that will make me forget something that I could see there, especially in sub-Saharan area
there was something so surreal about when this came out. The time. It seems to capture a unique vibe from then. The progressive beats and sound to the point where its right in your ear, gives this eery feeling of hope and love for that time. 2010-2014 ish. i graduated highschool in 2014 and not shortly after began finding more and more artists like this in electronic and dance etc... Future type music... one day i will be in my eighties and most likely hear this song and tear up.
When this video came out I was dating a girl from Paris, our relationship fell apart while she studied abroad in China and the haunted vibes in a replica of Paris in this video matched my feelings perfectly
There is something so positive in this song that everytime makes me wanna cry of joy
Thank you Industry for introducing me to this magical piece. I've heard of Jamie XX before, but this was eye opening. I can't think of a song that's ever had me so entranced instantly.
I also discovered it through "Industry". Perfect song.
Gosh💛 When My Soul Is Having A Shared Conversation 🙏🏽💛🙏🏽💛🙏🏽🇨🇦🇨🇦🇯🇲🔵💛
Yep, Industry- this came on and blew my socks off.
I've been listening to this song for years with my wife and it still puts us in a world of its own with an atmospheric dynamic that cant be explained. And the video is a work of art that underlines this atmosphere. THANK YOU!
A song that touches you on an emotional level. It is interpreted different by a lot of people but what everyone can agree on is this track affected your emotions. Truly beautiful.
Yes sir
No. Speak for yourself.
@@MrMacchiare just did. Sorry to hear u cldnt find any enjoyment in the song
The human mind and the creativity it produces is mindblowing! Really great song and a really great clip!
This video deserved every award it got. Pure art. I've never in my life come across a video in such alignment with a sound.
th-cam.com/video/rEuMAqfuCrI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=plpIrBdWe4X6Wa2_
The director of this video said ultimately it is about a young man starting to wake up spiritually while everyone around him, and society remains asleep. The end half is him leaving everyone behind him as he begins to embark on a new journey. The blonde look alike children represent the universe supporting him and his journey, and is sort of like a send off. Probably the most beautiful video ive ever seen.
I'm stunned this video didn't win best music video of the year... Absolutely incredible job on everyone involved!
I remember Jamie playing this at Falls Festival 2014, some 4-5 months before it got a release. Standing on the hill looking down at the stage with my girlfriend at the time, peaking my head off, almost in tears just in awe of how good it sounded, that bass vibrating through my chest. Good memories lol
So good. I know that feeling so well. I’m in WA and we had Southbound which was the same line up as Falls. Best days of my life. 👍👍
That had to be one hell of an experience….
That shot at 0:40 though. The kind of videography you imagine but cannot fathom how to achieve. But they did it. Incredible.
C'mon in Bro nope , no green screen , there's a bts on noisey's channel if you want to .
Yeah no green screen man. All filmed in a rather empty Chinese city than is a recreation of Paris. The city itself really helps to make this video beautiful but still a little eery. Kind of like 28 days later.
th-cam.com/video/R6CH18yyQyE/w-d-xo.html
Thank you :)
what so special about that? it's a drone shot
This music video should have 500 Million vues right now .. every time I watch it, I am gobsmacked ..
When the synth hits I tear up if I’m fully with the track
If anyone else was curious about the filming location, it's Tianducheng (Sky City), a Paris-themed community in Hangzhou, China. The tower in the center is a 1:3 scale replica of the Eiffel Tower.
Also, if you haven't seen it yet, look for this song's second official music video. It's great too. If you see Mars near the start, you found the right one.
Thank you im going to go look for that, right now I'm just obsessed with this video
That's cool, I just seriously wish all countries would just create their own thing instead of mimicking others. You be you I guess is what I'm saying, starting to finally see that with China in some ways but universally its not a competition, we are all on limited time.
Господи, сколько же удовольствия я получаю от этого каждый раз, это просто невероятно! Идеально всё, до секунды кадра и малейшего звука, это гениальная работа!
Listening to this for the first time and I started tearing up. Makes me want to achieve my full potential and be a better person.
For anyone seeing this I'm a struggling artist with a lot to lose. This song really puts me in a good space, even with the struggle life isn't that hard. So for anyone reading and struggling keep yourself going you got this!! The struggle is meant to happen before it goes away just to test ya strength. I love you all keep the energy High!
Keep you head up, we've got your back.
WONDERING IF YOU'VE NICHED YOUR ARTISTRY? who are you? have any named pieces?
@@tiffyca6871 I'm hitting peak levels at moments, at the moment it has been hard to create as funds get tight at various moments but it's all a part of the journey. And I'm a writer or as people say graffiti artist. I should post on TH-cam but right now I've been posting on Instagram and tik tok
@@BasDirks I appreciate it for real! All love back at ya.
Sup from Ireland.This is 1 of the best songs i have ever heard and the video is by far the best i have ever seen.Blew my mind.100 percent art.
Ok, I see from the comments I'm not the only one who keeps coming back to this. By the end, the audio & video has prepared me for orbit.
ive watched this 20 times today
I can see why people love this song. The entire song is one giant build and that's why I like it.
You guys don’t understand how healing this music is for me and my soul!!!
LISA MUA I feel you
Play this at my funeral or when my son is born. The frequency is deep
I just cry. I just cry at the absolutely lost for words masterpiece that this whole entire creation is. Goosebumps good every. Single. Time.
Thank you to the show Industry for reminding me of this incredible music ❤🎉
A friend showed me this music video a few years ago and this still remains as my favourite music video for a song and the instrumental is on another level
