this is the song that you play after the party's over and all your friends have gone home. a time for reflection - a time for growth. sad? yes, but healthy.
OH MY GOD! I am high right now, and this was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen in my life. I have never seen anything so beautiful, this animation was so fucking beautiful, you have no idea how beautiful it is. it is just beutiful. Ity filled me with such an extreme euphoria, it was beautiful.
There is more creativity in a given second in this film than I have encountered in years of viewing the product of various animators that I have had the pleasure or misfortune of working with in the last 18 years.
I saw this decades ago - never forgot it. I've wanted to see it again, and periodically searched the internet for it. Now my daughter is 3.5 years old, and she is in my lap, and I am about to push play. Thank you for posting it.
@@falloutfreeman627 (1) I adore you. (2) It is funny you posted, because last month she told me she watches it on youtube sometimes, because she remembers when I took her to an empty classroom when she was about 5 and projected youtube vids on the big screen, and this was one of them. I couldn't believe she remembered that and was still watching it! I hope you have a great 2023, Freeman!
Lyrics for those who want them: Grab your chance, otherwise Time won't wait, it always flies Life is flashing before your eyes So live it up, idealise Don't stop to compromise Life just keeps on flashing before your eyes Everyday a new sunrise Cauliflower clouds, stary skies Life is flashing before your eyes Just like butterflies Or the key to paradise Life's out there flashing before your eyes The pace of life will synchronise With the animated energy of surprise Life's right the, in front of your eyes Cherries in a bowl satisfy Your thirst for life will not run dry I said, life keeps flashing before your eyes Well just to philosophise Between two eternities I realise My life is flashing before my eyes It's just a dream, and my advise Is don't neglect to have a nice Life flash before your eyes Have a nice life flash before your eyes
It's awesome how the images keep constantly changing and every metamorfosis has it's meaning along with the letter. I love this, it's simply genious and captivating. Thnx =)
I tried salvia for the first time last night while listening to pink floyd. it was actually a lot like this. These animations are exactly like the visuals you have on a psychedelic trip.
i watched this for the first time when i was SO fucked up on shrooms, it almost destroyed my mind. I am very glad to see that it is just as epic when you're sober
Is this all a roar of existence, echos from another? A smear of consciousness sandwiched between infinite timeless voids? Right now I can even question the authenticity of the very reality that encases me everyday... what is life other than ephemeral?
Funny how it has "Copyright 1984" at the end, in my head that connected to the book "1984". Hahaha lyrics from this song "The pace of life will synchronize with the animated energy of surprise"..... shit im tripping again
Jake Gambino Thank you for sharing this video. I also found helpfull for cause of eye floaters is Megarno Clear Eyes Magician - it will be on google if you need it.
Don't stop. Not even if there's a red light. Uh huh. Right. The anime girl @ 2:05 is adorable.; love the sparkling eyes. Oh, yeah- Pinapple grenade!! Awesome. lol
"Some feel that life is but a dream. But you and I, we've been thru that. And this is not our fate. So let us not talk falsely now. The hour's getting late." ~ Bob Dylan Feed the hungry, cloth the naked, house the homeless, heal the sick, comfort the afflicted. This is the essence of true spirituality. Not fantastic visions and obscure ideas. I speak as an entheogen enthusiast and as a philosopher and writer of aphorisms (i.e. obscure ideas). I love this stuff, too. But its wine, not food.
I watched this on shrooms and I was shocked in amazment and I couldn't stop laffin. It's not scary, it's awsome! I have yet to do this on Acid. Soon will ^_^
Continas graphic elements from some of Collins' "Sesame Street" animated films-plus a geometric pattern from "Pinball Number Count" (which wasn't by Vince Collins). One thing I've long been trying to find out: during the 1970's, did Vince Collins also produce a series of number cartoons (structured similarly to SS's "Jazz #" films) for the bilingual PBS series "Villa Alegre"?
Grab your chance, otherwise time won’t wait it always flies Life is flashing before your eyes So live it up, idealize, don’t stop to compromise Life keeps flashing before your eyes Every day a new sunrise Cauliflower clouds starry skies Life is flashing before your eyes Just like butterflies or the key to paradise Lives have been flashing before your eyes

Whenever I watch this I feel every emotion at the exact same time. It's insane.
Reminder to rewatch

This is a jewel.
The first time i watched this i thought i was having a nervous breakdown
This was featured in Adult Swim's Off the Air series which was titled Death.
Between two eternities I realize, my life is flashing before my eyes
This is the most Beautiful song.
Is it weird that this song kinda makes me cry a little?
+Max Taylor i did it the first i heard it so i don't think so.
my doughter do too
+Max Taylor IKR??!!! This has a tune that just tingles your tear glands.
I'm trying to don't ;x
LSD-AMAZING

I almost feel like after this song, this comment thread needs a support group.

And now she's 16. Life is flashing before your eyes.

@@dougshaw6050 you too! I'm delighted that you have that to share!
I used to watch this stoned in 2010
it's now 2018
life definitely flashes before your eyes
I like to see this as a farewell made by a creator of some famous kids show after being diagnosed with a terminal illness.
Simply beautiful. i had a little tear.
How you interpret this song determines whether you're a glass half empty or a glass half full kind of person
+RottenMars considering i wept like a pussy, i think im glass-half-empty
+RottenMars I think that this song's a bit of both. It's bittersweet, but it makes me feel slightly more happy than sad.
Reminder to rewatch
I love the Music of Lewys Motisher and the animation of Vince Collins ♡
Off the air
I saw this collection on VHS way back. I had discovered something else not long before that.
So does life give some people seizures when it flashes before their eyes?
You know how some things make you feel a thing? This thing makes me feel a thing.
for some reason i watch this video everytime i get on my computer....i'm gonna set it as my homepage
That guy reminds me of Gary for the game IB
Lyrics for those who want them:
Grab your chance, otherwise
Time won't wait, it always flies
Life is flashing before your eyes
So live it up, idealise
Don't stop to compromise
Life just keeps on flashing before your eyes
Everyday a new sunrise
Cauliflower clouds, stary skies
Life is flashing before your eyes
Just like butterflies
Or the key to paradise
Life's out there flashing before your eyes
The pace of life will synchronise
With the animated energy of surprise
Life's right the, in front of your eyes
Cherries in a bowl satisfy
Your thirst for life will not run dry
I said, life keeps flashing before your eyes
Well just to philosophise
Between two eternities I realise
My life is flashing before my eyes
It's just a dream, and my advise
Is don't neglect to have a nice
Life flash before your eyes
Have a nice life flash before your eyes
this is the stuff i truly love. i wish people pushed pictures as far as this more.
Yup this is the song i want played at my funeral
your emotion to this song depicts whether you pay attention to melody or lyrics
why not both?
Vince Collins (the animator) also made Malice in Wonderland which is a damn strange video
THE BEST VIDEO EVER HANDS DOWN!!!
i still love watching this video :)
I bleed out to this song.
oh man, I checked that one out too, and that one was awesome.
Vince Collins = UNDERRATED GENIUS !
This song is great and has a good message knowone should be sad listening to this song and enjoy the little things in life while you can:)
***** oddly enough the sound of the music sounds really lamenting and makes me feel incredibly sad. its bittersweet, for me.
It's awesome how the images keep constantly changing and every metamorfosis has it's meaning along with the letter. I love this, it's simply genious and captivating.
Thnx =)
This never gets old
this is the best video i've ever seen
I love this
This reminds me of that song from Don't Hug Me I'm Scared 3
Great. I loved it. Song is great and this animation is even better. ;)
I tried salvia for the first time last night while listening to pink floyd. it was actually a lot like this. These animations are exactly like the visuals you have on a psychedelic trip.
i watched this for the first time when i was SO fucked up on shrooms, it almost destroyed my mind. I am very glad to see that it is just as epic when you're sober
I absolutely love this.
LOVE THE CLAPPING IN THE BEGINNING
this is a godly video. AMAZING!
this is beautiful
why is this so amazing?
The best of the bunch, by FAR
A bell is a cup until it's a duck.
this is the first vid that makes me want to cry
Is this all a roar of existence, echos from another? A smear of consciousness sandwiched between infinite timeless voids? Right now I can even question the authenticity of the very reality that encases me everyday... what is life other than ephemeral?
Drop a heavy weight on your feet and figure it out.
Very well done.
genious vince collins :)
Funny how it has "Copyright 1984" at the end, in my head that connected to the book "1984". Hahaha lyrics from this song "The pace of life will synchronize with the animated energy of surprise"..... shit im tripping again
Great cameo by Jim Morrison at the end.
yo this is like rhyming but with pictures instead of words
Is this what drugs feels like
evrybodyluvs no
Fernando Morales mmm
Jake Gambino Thank you for sharing this video. I also found helpfull for cause of eye floaters
is Megarno Clear Eyes Magician - it will be on google if you need it.

Excellent ending!
makes me want to cry
Deep, but really has a good meaning to it.
Don't stop. Not even if there's a red light. Uh huh. Right.
The anime girl @ 2:05 is adorable.; love the sparkling eyes.
Oh, yeah- Pinapple grenade!! Awesome. lol
This was posted 12 years ago. Life definitely flashing before our eyes
Best video ever....

The video activated my PTSD and I cut up my wife's dining room set with a hacksaw. :(
+goatanything hahaha had a good laugh from this thanks
Why do I have a feeling this is exactly what I'll see if I have a near death experience???
I watched this on shrooms and I was shocked in amazment and I couldn't stop laffin. It's not scary, it's awsome! I have yet to do this on Acid. Soon will ^_^

superjail be like:

Life is flashing before your eyes
So live it up, idealize, don’t stop to compromise
Life keeps flashing before your eyes
Every day a new sunrise
Cauliflower clouds starry skies
Life is flashing before your eyes
Just like butterflies or the key to paradise
Lives have been flashing before your eyes
i had a massive head ache, then i saw this, now im dead

and my advice

I think exile could make a dope beat out of this
There are also the parts that look like splattering paint. These look like some of the Sesame Street cartoons that demonstrate letters.
i felt like crying. just had to tell someone.
i watch this video every time i drop acid and it’s a different reaction every time.
I feel guilty for wanting to press play again, like I'm completely defeating the purpose of the message.
amo esta canción
Good stuff.
This is some Final Destination shit.
This song makes my soul sad
im trippin balls watchin this it keeps pulling me in lol
...THE BEST DAYS OF OUR LIVES...!
