God is an Astronaut is the only reason I've kept my sanity while studying for my finals the past couple weeks. They're the reason I'm going to pass my classes. The perfect studying music!
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. It leaves no intrinsic emotion not stimulated... all your happiness, your sorrow, your stress, your excitement, is in a harmonious symbiosis within this song.
This band never gets old. No matter how many times I listen to their songs they don't get old. If I was asked what my favorite band was i'd say this one. Of all the music I go back and listen to over the years this is probably the one band that sounds brand new every time I pick a song and listen. I am grateful for their music and hope that more musicians come out with pieces like theirs. God is an astronaut's music never ceases to amaze me.
there is happiness in the sadness if you do not fall into the anger, because only those who can only really love and only their tears carry the sunshine coming from their heart can only worry deeply, peacefully... and if they can catch a sun, by their tears, a blue star will rise and brings the paradise to universe... I have been listening these post rock groups for a long time, and by them I have met trance music groups and now these two genre are my favourite genres...
This song makes me feel like I'm stuck.......stuck in the middle of the frozen tundra, deep in the heart of Alaska. No civilization for hundreds of miles. And while laying there in the desolate cold, I'm as warm as ever. My soul is rejuvenated with every passing second of this delicate piece. Simply wonderful.
Your everyday stressing around. You feel like just can't take it, and decide to go hear some music that might just help just a little. This one turned my world upside down, in a good way.
the more I listen to this, the more I realise that this is music for my heart, my ears feel some what betrayed, feelings seep out like light...touch the light of life...connect and become one...
Looking for "ambient bands" and found it... I'm so happy right now. This music makes my fly. I can't believe that people don't hear this and prefer to listen music that is made without feelings.
I find prosperity in such music, lose myself for a moment, complete stagnation and harmony between cold mind and warm emotions. Kind of makes me embrace the harsh reality and completely merge with it. Accepting failures and remembering past moments which are forever lost in the ocean of time.
This song got me freezing cold chills on my back and made me cry and smile at the same time for all the memories I've made while listening this and lost afterwards.
This song radiates with so much power it completley destroys my persona and sends me on a trip into great unknown.This band puts so much energy into their music it makes you forgot all the bad things that happened to you and just be grateful for what you got.
Tragedy becomes brilliance. Desperation becomes awe. Emptiness becomes hope. Look inside and to the sky, for they are the doorways to the meaning of us all.
This is my new favorite band, without a doubt. Their music has stuck my mind with so much interest and perfection, I doubt I'll ever find anything better. Nearly all newer, modern music is heading straight to hell, and with bands like this to remember, modern bands and artists might be forgotten in a few years, but THIS will live on.
Whenever I listen to this one, I smile... it gives me more optimism than I think is healthy, but I don't care, I just take it and try to make best of it
God Is An Astronaut, The Mercury Program, Animals As Leaders. These are perhaps the most beautiful and wonderful bands I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. In a time of anger and frustration, this brings a smile to my face :)
holy. fucking. shit. This is probably the best song I've ever heard. It's like i've been searching for this my entire life and now, I've finally found peace of mind.
Their songs tell stories in a way that you must use your own intellect and imagination to create the story as you listen to it. This music allows you to think freely in a way that it clears your mind and just flows through you. A lot of this is almost "spiritual" music in a way if you want it to be. Good stuff.
I remember in 2008 when I use to read the comment section of this video and band it was filled with inspiring and heart written comments. Can't believe this music has turned into a flame war fest. Such music is not only heard through the ears, but it's also felt through the heart and mind.
This song is so beautiful that it nearly hurts..It touches the deepest of my heart...This is the kind of music that gives me so much hope...the kind of music that keeps me alive! Thanks GIAA!!! I hope you dont see this as spam but I think that good music needs to be shared. I found a band on youtube called "Nyctalgia" If you have time, listen to their songs "Lost in timeless horizons" and "Falling into nothingness" Breathtaking and powerful songs by this young guy...
It's been several years since I first saw this video, and I keep coming back to it. The third image fascinates me like nothing else. It looks like a tower in the clouds... like another world.
One of my favorites from GIAA. When I'm feeling down, or sad about how things are going all it takes is this song to put things into perspective. Thanks for uploading this and thanks God Is An Astronaut for making such beautiful music.
I lost my will to do anything... I lost faith... I lost confidence... I think I even lost my mind... I lost my will to live... I lost my will to excuse myself for my every little mistake... I am tired for missing her... I feel sick for myself... I am tired and forever lost... I trusted people more than i should have... but now i don't give a damn about the world, or love, or god... I'm just listening to some good music in the most pleasant place on earth - this part of youtube!
Their music always has such tender emotive reverence for the innermost quiet spaces inside a human being - and at the same time it is an echoing across time of 'fuck yes! we're alive!'. Transcendent.
Makes me feel like im in the middle of a field on a cold night... and im staring out into the Night Sky, absolute silence. Me and the sky above. A window into a different world. Makes me think about the fragility of life, and it makes me wish I could soar through the Cosmic Ocean.
This is such a wonderful song! As most of GIAA's song, there's this magical thing in it...That thing that gives you so much hope for the future and makes your life looking way more beuatiful than it already is...GIAA is THE band of the century! I hope you won't see this as a spam, but I think that good music needs to be shared.. I found a band on youtube called "Nyctalgia" If you've got enough time, listen to their songs "Lost in timeless horizons" and "Falling into nothingness" Amazing songs!
Looks like about 5 out of every 639 people have lost their hearing... Either that or they're assholes. This an amazing and truely timeless song. It's what music is suppposed to sound like. Pleasure for the ears, heart and mind.
I cried when I read your comment! 'Cause I've loved and lost too! And, now we're here! Listening to good music! Cheers to the beautiful side of youtube! Cheers to being LOST FOREVER!
I don't know if we are alone in this world, if there is a God somewhere or something else, or if we really have a soul I just know that when I listen to this something inside me becomes alive, if that is a soul then I'm happy I have it.
I love so many different types of music, and I have so many favorite artists. However, God Is An Astronaut is one of a few artists that truly takes me to another place. The music is so beautiful... impeccably arranged~ each song related to the next, but still completely different. The most vividly beautiful images come to my mind when listening to GIAA. I feel at peace~
«When I consider the short duration of my life, swallowed up in the eternity that lies before and after it, when I consider the little space I fill and I see, engulfed in the infinite immensity of spaces of which I am ignorant, and which know me not, I rest frightened, and astonished, for there is no reason why I should be here rather than there. Why now rather than then? Who has put me here? By whose order and direction have this place and time have been ascribed to me?» Pascal Honestly.
this band makes the best music. but it also brings out the best of people, all the comments ive seen so far, seem so, into it and only something true character would say.
GIAA IETS and The Antlers are so strange to listen, coz when I hear them I always feel loneliness and happiness in my heart. anyways cant get rid off listening them.
This song actually made me feel like i could levitate! I just did some pot and i was standing in the garden with a couple of my friends and this song just took me on a completely different trip! Thank you :)
I have been downloading post rock album pretty much all day: Explosions In the Sky - The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place Frames - In Via God Is An Astronaut - All Is Violent, All Is Bright God Is An Astronaut - Helios The XX - X so far
When the guitar comes in a second time, everything becomes vividly clear. We are here on earth capable of cooperation and unity with one another. Let us explore the universe, In hope that along the way, we will create a place where life is not a struggle. The feeling this music brings is hope. Lets go exploring
Why is it when I look at a God Is An Astronaut video all I see if people with only good things to say and no petty arguments. This music is definitely for those who are chilled enough to accept that arguing on youtube is a waste of time....... loving this tune!
i just close my eyes and think i m in a world where are nowhere troubles, hatefull people, pain, wars, disrespect to each other...... please god let my wishes comes true
Great music for studying, because it blocks out distractions, but unlike music with vocals, it doesn't end up being a distraction. I find that when I listen to most music while studying, I end up focusing on the lyrics and singing, and that isn't a problem with this.
cant wait to see them again! wasnt proud of Ireland music-wise until i heard God Is An Astronaut, and i told the drummer that in belfast when i was pissed lol
this song is just amazing. GIAA altogether is an incredibly inspiring band. just open the window at night, let the moonlight and fresh air in, close your eyes and play this music. its so relaxing, so stimulating! its incredible! thank you guys, this music is breathtaking! im pretty sure i speak for most people on this page when I say that you guys have true talent! keep up the brilliant work! love the music
i believe that we must send one of their albums our there in the cosmos as well to see the reaction of aliens when they finally make a solid contact with us
God is an Astronaut is the only reason I've kept my sanity while studying for my finals the past couple weeks. They're the reason I'm going to pass my classes. The perfect studying music!
to be forever lost, with such beautiful music in my ears, who would ever want to be found....
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. It leaves no intrinsic emotion not stimulated... all your happiness, your sorrow, your stress, your excitement, is in a harmonious symbiosis within this song.
I heard this song years ago but never knew its name or where I could find it. Today is a good day.
This band never gets old. No matter how many times I listen to their songs they don't get old. If I was asked what my favorite band was i'd say this one. Of all the music I go back and listen to over the years this is probably the one band that sounds brand new every time I pick a song and listen. I am grateful for their music and hope that more musicians come out with pieces like theirs. God is an astronaut's music never ceases to amaze me.
15 years since I first heard and fell in love with this band. The biggest influence musically in my life. Still sounds and feels good :)
It is a great band. Try Pink Floyd ;)
same! I second this thought.
there is happiness in the sadness if you do not fall into the anger, because only those who can only really love and only their tears carry the sunshine coming from their heart can only worry deeply, peacefully... and if they can catch a sun, by their tears, a blue star will rise and brings the paradise to universe...

Your everyday stressing around. You feel like just can't take it, and decide to go hear some music that might just help just a little. This one turned my world upside down, in a good way.
For those feeling forever lost, you're not alone. There are others who feel how you feel. Love yourself, love nature.
the more I listen to this, the more I realise that this is music for my heart, my ears feel some what betrayed, feelings seep out like light...touch the light of life...connect and become one...
Looking for "ambient bands" and found it... I'm so happy right now. This music makes my fly. I can't believe that people don't hear this and prefer to listen music that is made without feelings.
I enjoy this music so much to the point that I just don't understand why anyone would dislike it.
The feeling you get when you listen to this. I could try to tell you .... but even millions of words would´nt be enough
This is a true masterpiece,i cant stop listening to this song 2 years now..i wanna cry yet i wanna smile
I find prosperity in such music, lose myself for a moment, complete stagnation and harmony between cold mind and warm emotions. Kind of makes me embrace the harsh reality and completely merge with it. Accepting failures and remembering past moments which are forever lost in the ocean of time.
5 people who dont know music listened to this amazing piece of music...
This song got me freezing cold chills on my back and made me cry and smile at the same time for all the memories I've made while listening this and lost afterwards.
I love it when music has that power, it's something irreplaceable.
God is an Astronaut without a doubt does alot of beautiful music.
If you close your eyes you can almost feel yourself drift away to the music...
thats some real shit right there.
i could fall in love during this song
This song brings tears to my eyes.
I'm a lyrics person, but shit... I do believe that I've just discovered the beautiful serenity of music without words.
Ok boomer
One of my favorite of theirs. Makes me happy and hopeful
I can't click this song away. If I visit another page I feel as if I don't live anymore.
I found that band randomly few minutes ago and I'm downloading their discography now.
Efecan Ç They are that amazing, right ?! ^_^
You should buy it but I guess you will
Petya Dobreva Yepp :)
This song radiates with so much power it completley destroys my persona and sends me on a trip into great unknown.This band puts so much energy into their music it makes you forgot all the bad things that happened to you and just be grateful for what you got.
Tragedy becomes brilliance.
Desperation becomes awe.
Emptiness becomes hope.
Look inside and to the sky, for they are the doorways to the meaning of us all.
you feel this song under your skin. crawling into your heart and make in beat faster. i love it.
This really hits the spot after a long nightshift.
This is my new favorite band, without a doubt. Their music has stuck my mind with so much interest and perfection, I doubt I'll ever find anything better.
Nearly all newer, modern music is heading straight to hell, and with bands like this to remember, modern bands and artists might be forgotten in a few years, but THIS will live on.
This is incredible music... And to think I was unaware of such an awesome band until I stumbled upon them a day ago...
Whenever I listen to this one, I smile... it gives me more optimism than I think is healthy, but I don't care, I just take it and try to make best of it
God Is An Astronaut, The Mercury Program, Animals As Leaders. These are perhaps the most beautiful and wonderful bands I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. In a time of anger and frustration, this brings a smile to my face :)
holy.
fucking.
shit.
This is probably the best song I've ever heard. It's like i've been searching for this my entire life and now, I've finally found peace of mind.
Wow I just closed my eyes and thought of my whole life all the memories that I can recap some that haven't come to mind in years. Amazing song.
Their songs tell stories in a way that you must use your own intellect and imagination to create the story as you listen to it. This music allows you to think freely in a way that it clears your mind and just flows through you. A lot of this is almost "spiritual" music in a way if you want it to be. Good stuff.

If you have time, listen to their songs "Lost in timeless horizons" and "Falling into nothingness"
Breathtaking and powerful songs by this young guy...

How on Earth could ninety six people dislike this? I just don’t understand what is wrong with all these people who cannot hear great music...
holy fucking hell. used to listen to this track in, like, 2010
im still DEEPLY in love with it
So beautiful. Love them so much. Amazing running music.
Makes me feel like im in the middle of a field on a cold night... and im staring out into the Night Sky, absolute silence. Me and the sky above. A window into a different world. Makes me think about the fragility of life, and it makes me wish I could soar through the Cosmic Ocean.
I feel the calmness in my mind after a hectic day!
You can almost feel the fresh grass on your feet ..and the flowing river ..while watching the blue sky .....
This is such a wonderful song!
As most of GIAA's song, there's this magical thing in it...That thing that gives you so much hope for the future and makes your life looking way more beuatiful than it already is...GIAA is THE band of the century!
I hope you won't see this as a spam, but I think that good music needs to be shared..

If you've got enough time, listen to their songs "Lost in timeless horizons" and "Falling into nothingness"
Amazing songs!
Looks like about 5 out of every 639 people have lost their hearing... Either that or they're assholes.
This an amazing and truely timeless song. It's what music is suppposed to sound like. Pleasure for the ears, heart and mind.

Holy cow, this is just wonderful. Ive been hearing Sleep Dearler and recomended this, nice.
Have you ever felt .... You were dead .... And suddenly .... You fell into life from the depths of the universe? This song is the journey.
you all are describing feelings of serenity and euphoria, however my experience was of sadness, tears and pain.
Such a beautiful piece i cant wait to see these guys live next week!!!!
the few times we think about our lives is when hearing songs like these
This stuff brings me peace and gets my imagination flowing!!!
*Cameron* This is one of my favorite songs now. Introspecting while listening to this song works wonders.
I don't know if we are alone in this world, if there is a God somewhere or something else, or if we really have a soul I just know that when I listen to this something inside me becomes alive, if that is a soul then I'm happy I have it.
That drummer is one of the best I have heard. And drums is something i seldom notice!
I love so many different types of music, and I have so many favorite artists.
However, God Is An Astronaut is one of a few artists that truly takes me to another place. The music is so beautiful... impeccably arranged~ each song related to the next, but still completely different. The most vividly beautiful images come to my mind when listening to GIAA. I feel at peace~
now my soul is resting for the first time
I can not imagine anything more beautiful than this.
This song, wow! Sounds like a something off a movie soundtrack. Just magnificent!
We are forver lost in our meanningless cycles, untill we look up!
Really beautiful pictures to go with, in my opinion, the most beautiful piece they've made!
«When I consider the short duration of my life, swallowed up in the eternity that lies before and after it, when I consider the little space I fill and I see, engulfed in the infinite immensity of spaces of which I am ignorant, and which know me not, I rest frightened, and astonished, for there is no reason why I should be here rather than there. Why now rather than then? Who has put me here? By whose order and direction have this place and time have been ascribed to me?»
Pascal
Honestly.
Fan forever! This song reminds me of staring off into the Pacific Ocean for some reason. I'm in Houston so don't blame me. Its mesmerizing.
.
this band makes the best music.
but it also brings out the best of people, all the comments ive seen so far, seem so, into it and only something true character would say.
Gorgeous music, & amazing pics! So soothing... I'm gonna look up more info on this astounding band! They've got talent AND heart!
while TH-cam is such an amazing technology, to experience this song in raw, unbridled nature would be such a profound experience. GIAA is amazing.
One of my friends suggested this song to me and i’ll be forever in debt to him
Just discovered this band a week ago. Why haven't I known they existed years ago?
Best band of the century!!! I March 6th I go to hear them in milan I have already the chills in my back!!!! SPIRITUAL COSMIC ORGASMIC!!!!!!!!!
As I look at these pictures of nature I wonder how it could all be just an accident, theres just too much order and beauty to it all.
We are lost, truly. But not forever... I hope. There is a good God here and there, and we will be found and saved soon... that is my hope...
This song is so touching and so relaxing.
GIAA IETS and The Antlers are so strange to listen, coz when I hear them I always feel loneliness and happiness in my heart. anyways cant get rid off listening them.
I like this song alot. It reminds me of how merciful our God is. I don't really like the name, because with Christ, you are NEVER lost.
This song actually made me feel like i could levitate! I just did some pot and i was standing in the garden with a couple of my friends and this song just took me on a completely different trip! Thank you :)
This is my favorite song ever. It makes me so calm and relaxed. :)
43 people accidantly pressed dislike. i can't see another possible reason why anybody should dislike this incredible piece of art!
I have been downloading post rock album pretty much all day:

Very nice pictures. Nature is pretty epic, its something ever human being sometimes gets distracted by.
Man, its been a year or two since i listened to my god cds...its just as epic as i remember.
When the guitar comes in a second time, everything becomes vividly clear. We are here on earth capable of cooperation and unity with one another. Let us explore the universe, In hope that along the way, we will create a place where life is not a struggle. The feeling this music brings is hope. Lets go exploring
GIAA, Mogwai and GSY!BE are my favorite post rock bands. Just can't get enough of them.
I love that part between 0:00 and 6:13.
Beautiful song :')
Makes you forget of all the bullshit in life for 6 mins.
This song makes me feel like I can close my eyes and run away, and anyway I'll be fine. ♥ :)
Why is it when I look at a God Is An Astronaut video all I see if people with only good things to say and no petty arguments. This music is definitely for those who are chilled enough to accept that arguing on youtube is a waste of time....... loving this tune!
