I discovered this song in a very dark period of my life. I was tired, sick, wanting to die from the pain I was in. So depressed. But every day I had to walk through a park on the way to my apartment...and I would play this as I passed through it. It always cheered me up. Today I am healthy and enjoying life. And still listening....
Same!! I spent three years trying to find this song and then finally I watched the movie The Switch and when the end credits started I was like OMG that’s the song!!!!!
LYRICS: Lovers' names carved in walls Overlap, start to merge Some of them underneath Maybe they appear in graveyards Maybe they fade away Weathered and overgrown Time has told Meaningful hidden words Suddenly appear from the murk Maybe they're telling us That the end never was Never will The words have gone But the meaning will never Disappear from the wall.
I implore anyone who enjoys this song to read the lyrics. Such a poppy, happy tune, but the lyrics are straight outta Simon & Garfunkels brains. Poetic, tear-coaxing words
If you excise the intro, it's an incomplete song. Yes, it's an impossibly catchy hook, but it feels shallow and one-dimensional without the context. The intro makes the change in tempo/tone more significant and "earned."
My parents have a video of me dancing with them to this song back when I was 3 or 4ish in our kitchen that was small with the really ugly tiles but every time I hear this song it fills me with a overwhelming sense of happiness remembering those times but at the same time it makes me incredibly sad and nostalgic but one thing I know for sure is that I truly love this song.
I used to listen to this song when I was 12yrs old always wondering.. "who's gonna be THE love of my life.. who will this song be so meaningful towards?" Sometimes getting sad in no hope of ever finding love. Now I listen to this with the love of my life & our son, someone who I manifested into my life for so long 💛(:
It tripped me out when I saw that commercial....I've been jamming to this song since I found it on an indie playlist ten years ago and had never heard it any other place other than my iPod Classic
I heard this song for the first time when I was around 11 or 12. (I’m 23 now). It will always remind me of childhood and hot, sticky summer evenings. Listened to it when I visited spain for the first time and I listened to it sitting in the park behind my grandmother’s house. So many good memories attached to this. So much time has gone by and so much pain has been endured but occasionally I’ll revisit this tune and just close my eyes and sink into the feeling…
Here because of the Hyundai commercial, but I remember this from Adult Swim. Couldn't Shazam it at the time, though, so I couldn't find it back then. x3 Edit: Oh wow, just got to the lyrics, and they hit hard. So few, but so strong.
Funny how a commercial gets a lot of people to check a song out huh? I am here for the same car commercial but I remember hearing it before. Can not place how but now that you say Adult Swim I bet that is it Buffer music at the commercials? That is my guess
This song so vividly reminds me of a specific old love i had a couple of years back. She introduced me to Bibio and taught me a few things i never knew about myself. Like most things in life it wasnt meant to be. Its nice to be able to look back with fondness at a happy part of your life. If you ever read this Jess, i hope wherever you are or whatever youre doing, youre happy x
She’ll see it some day. Cheers mate 🍻 “Lovers' names carved in walls Overlap, start to merge Some of them underneath Maybe they appear in graveyards Maybe they fade away Weathered and overgrown Time has told Meaningful hidden words”
I hope people can learn to appreciate this type of music :) it's not boring! It's awesome and I can't wait to roam around the streets during this rainy season while thinking of my love and listening to these blissful tunes.
@@MyManDan Idk how you knew that but Yeah but not young in a carefree do whatever i want way :( more like a young but i need to figure out wtf I'm gonna do with my life way :(
I've only experienced synesthesia a few times in my life and this song was by far the most intense. When I listen to the first minute and a half of this song I can see an old 1700s farmer out in the parries. Sitting in a homemade rocking chair on his front porch looking out over the wheat field, smoking a pipe and watching the sun set as the wind gently blows through the grass like waves on the ocean. Gently rocking to the tempo of the song, the chair stops rocking just as the last rays of sun fall beyond the horizon and the first half of the song ends. The rest of the song is great but for whatever reason my brain blasts my awareness with this scene, fully fleshed out and with incredible detail every time I listen to it and close my eyes. I don't get this with any other songs. Not sure what's going on here but I'm glad I found it!
The song asks what of meaning remains after the many ephemeral relationships one strikes up in the course of life have long run aground. The metaphor of a wall where one might chalk up each new ‘conquest’ is employed. As woman upon woman, lover upon lover is written on the wall, their names - and in parallel their emotional import - start to overlap. St. Vincent asks in the song ‘the Strangers’; “What do I share? What do I keep from all the strangers who sleep where I sleep?” Bibio relates how even if the individuals (‘ names) have been forgotten, the myriad experiences which were shared with all the lovers as a total still constitutes meaning which can last, even if the individual relationships don’t.
Bibio was first introduced to me as an Adult Swim bump like almost a decade ago or so and this song is like timeless for me. it’s weird I get nostalgia from it but it’s always kinda like a new experience for me listening to bibio
I've been looking for this song forever. I've always found this song nostalgic because I have an absurdly fond memory of me listening to this song in the car when I was little. I can't be more than amazed that I finally stumbled upon this video.
Takes me back to the days of no responsibilities and having fun. Kids, don’t rush to grow up. Savor your childhood before it’s gone because once you’re a young adult, the days go by faster and there’s less time for fun and games. Get off your phone and hang out with your friends and family!!!
Soy el único al que le recuerda esta canción como si fuera la intro de El increíble mundo de Gumball?? EN: I'm the only one who hearing this song reminds me of The Amazing World of Gumball theme??
Finally I found this song it took me years to be exact like 12 years it I remember hearing when I was like 11 roughly and over the years I lost it but randomly it would come to my head every now but could never really pin point who it was who sung it but I found it!!! After all this time Finally I can rest in peacefully
The beginning makes me imagine driving down a long stretch of road in the desert in an old beat up VW Beetle with a beautiful girl in the passenger seat leaning her head out the window just letting her hair blow in the wind with the sun glinting off it.
This reminds me so much of summers in London it’s the first place I went to when I heard it especially the 00’s pre smartphone walking around with your house keys and your flip phone which was purely for calling and texting- on your way to somewhere to meet your friends and remembering the directions in your head. And then I saw artwork and I was stunned. I knew it was a London street straight away almost identical to the one I grew up on and he pretty much looks like he’s living the exact scenario it took me to in my head haha I think I stared at it on my Spotify for the whole duration of the song when I first saw it. I mean a song might remind you of an era in your life but I’ve never been THAT accurate before. Love.
All 6th grade my math teacher played this song, I loved it! I then forgot about it. Now I’m in 7th grade and saw the Hyundai commercial and the memories just hit me like a bullet, thanks mr Hazel for the memories.🤧
I want to go back to Europe, Univeristy here in the states just isn't the same. I’ve never loved anyone more than the 35 people I lived with in Amsterdam for 3 months.
BROOO I WAS WATCHING BASEBALL AND I WAS ON MY PHONE DURING THE COMMERCIAL BREAK AND A HYUNDAI COMMERCIAL CAME ON AND WHEN THE 1:26 PART STARTED PLAY I WAS LIKE DAMN WTF IS THIS SONG AYYYYYEEEE
I remember hearing the intro to this song in Adult Swim bumps back in the day, and I always assumed it was some classic folk song from the 60's. I was delighted to find out this is actually a much more recent song. Just goes to show that timeless classics can still happen in this day and age.
I only recently found this song, and absolutely love it. I especially love the intro acoustic portion. Does anyone have any song recommendations for similar sounding songs to the intro of this one?
I discovered this song in a very dark period of my life. I was tired, sick, wanting to die from the pain I was in. So depressed. But every day I had to walk through a park on the way to my apartment...and I would play this as I passed through it. It always cheered me up.
Today I am healthy and enjoying life. And still listening....
this is beautiful. I am going to do the same thing. And find life again thanks to music.
just as its intended to do.. shield one from gloom :)
Wow, I can totally relate to your story. I'm very glad you're better (and still enjoying good music)!
God bless you all good ppl❤
Glad you’re still here. ✊🏻
I'm going to get married to this song in August. I love it so much.
+plus_stine good for you!
@plus stine Congratulations!!!
how did the wedding go??
I'm going to get assfucked to this song tonight. I love it so much. Wish me luck ;) #firsttime
oh man what a great song to get married to, congratulations!
The intro has to be the most beautiful thing in the world
And adalt swimest in the world.
Confirmed
LITERALLY TOOK ME YEARS TO FIND THIS SONG AND FINALLY FOUND IT!
Same!! I spent three years trying to find this song and then finally I watched the movie The Switch and when the end credits started I was like OMG that’s the song!!!!!
that’s the best feeling
@@jonathanlawrence4329 I just did the exact same thing I had to Shazam it lol this song has waiting for me for years
It was the end credits of a Jason Bateman movie and I am here now after years....
I've been looking for this song for over a year or so and I just kind of hummed it on my Google pixel and viola it found It!! Technology FTW!!
LYRICS:
Lovers' names carved in walls
Overlap, start to merge
Some of them underneath
Maybe they appear in graveyards
Maybe they fade away
Weathered and overgrown
Time has told
Meaningful hidden words
Suddenly appear from the murk
Maybe they're telling us
That the end never was
Never will
The words have gone
But the meaning will never
Disappear from the wall.
bloody brilliant lyrics
Bloody brilliant
Eugenio Gervasio no
La la laa laaa la la la laaa lala lalala
Thank you!!!!
This album paints some of the most beautiful parts of my life. Chances of you seeing this are low but thanks bibio for making my life what it is.
Right on.
You're looking for 1:27
Denna låter precis som flickorna i Båstad

" vet inte vad hon heter, jag kallar henne shawty"
I implore anyone who enjoys this song to read the lyrics. Such a poppy, happy tune, but the lyrics are straight outta Simon & Garfunkels brains. Poetic, tear-coaxing words
It's a shame that this version has a fraction of the views compared to the one that cuts to the most recognisable part. The full song is beautiful.
what other musics have cuts from this music?
As in, someone has uploaded a video where it plays from 1:27 and has got way more views than the original video (this one)
If you excise the intro, it's an incomplete song. Yes, it's an impossibly catchy hook, but it feels shallow and one-dimensional without the context. The intro makes the change in tempo/tone more significant and "earned."
the song part is throwaway for me...the first min and a half however are an absolute joy
Fuck that the intro is great
Stephen Wilkinson was one of my lecturers in my first year of college. He left when he got signed to Warp. I just wanted to brag a little about that.

My parents have a video of me dancing with them to this song back when I was 3 or 4ish in our kitchen that was small with the really ugly tiles but every time I hear this song it fills me with a overwhelming sense of happiness remembering those times but at the same time it makes me incredibly sad and nostalgic but one thing I know for sure is that I truly love this song.
This is such a groovy song to just chill to. It starts with a calm acoustic feel then just gets upbeat and so catchy.
+Tuku Tuki He-man!! HEYAYAYAYAY I said HEY whats going on?

That's so beautiful💛
A Hyundai commercial brought me here
It tripped me out when I saw that commercial....I've been jamming to this song since I found it on an indie playlist ten years ago and had never heard it any other place other than my iPod Classic
Google Glass!
This song has been driving me crazy for weeks. I knew I had seen it on a car commercial, but I thought it was Subaru. I'm glad the torture is over!
I had sex with my dad to this song
@@edweer670 wtf
Just watched' the switch' on Netflix! end credit song .This made my heart happy 😁 Cute Lil ditty 🎶
Fell asleep next to my one watching that out of redbox and this is the end credits... stuck in my head forever more....
That beginning part has such late 60s hippie vibe to it..which I love
Yes, late 60s, early 70s. Like Buffalo Springfield, Joni Mitchell, etc.
It reminds me of something that would be in a 70s children's stop motion TV show.
I heard this song for the first time when I was around 11 or 12. (I’m 23 now). It will always remind me of childhood and hot, sticky summer evenings. Listened to it when I visited spain for the first time and I listened to it sitting in the park behind my grandmother’s house.
So many good memories attached to this. So much time has gone by and so much pain has been endured but occasionally I’ll revisit this tune and just close my eyes and sink into the feeling…
Here because of the Hyundai commercial, but I remember this from Adult Swim. Couldn't Shazam it at the time, though, so I couldn't find it back then. x3
Edit: Oh wow, just got to the lyrics, and they hit hard. So few, but so strong.
Lmao, also here from the Hyundai commercial. The moment I heard this, it brought me back to years past. Had to find out what it was called again.
Funny how a commercial gets a lot of people to check a song out huh? I am here for the same car commercial but I remember hearing it before. Can not place how but now that you say Adult Swim I bet that is it
Buffer music at the commercials? That is my guess
This song so vividly reminds me of a specific old love i had a couple of years back.
She introduced me to Bibio and taught me a few things i never knew about myself. Like most things in life it wasnt meant to be.
Its nice to be able to look back with fondness at a happy part of your life. If you ever read this Jess, i hope wherever you are or whatever youre doing, youre happy x

ash lee I agree! I listen to this kind of music all the time and people always tell me its boring lol :( I still love it tho :D
reminds me of being young and waking up to adult swim in the middle of the night
There’s a full version??
Hey
You’re still young ;)
@@MyManDan Idk how you knew that but Yeah but not young in a carefree do whatever i want way :( more like a young but i need to figure out wtf I'm gonna do with my life way :(
Still remember this from the infamous Google Glass commercial that Google wants us to forget.

Who’s here cause of the Hyundai commercial ?
Y’all r late (it’s ok though)
I’m here cuz of good husbands - in bloom
Chasin TV ✋
Guilty 😒
Beat me to the question.lol Whoa wait how bout whos here cause of the mlb playoffs ?
The Dream by Logic has this at the end. Song doesn't disappoint.👌
The song asks what of meaning remains after the many ephemeral relationships one strikes up in the course of life have long run aground.

Same here, end credits of a Jason Bateman movie....
Stul1 beat
Tur att jag hittade det här klipp1 så jag kunde se din kommentar
Vet inte vad hon heter
Jag kallar henne Malin
Just heard this in a commercial, it sounds like a 70s song, a la Joni Mitchel or some other 70s folk group.
First 1:25 sounds like something from a Wes Anderson film.
The whole thing got that vibe tho
The first 1:25 legitimately sounds like background music from a wes anderson movie, but the whole song has the vibe
this song would be a beautiful song to start off slow dancing to and then just end up boogying
Takes me back to the days of no responsibilities and having fun. Kids, don’t rush to grow up. Savor your childhood before it’s gone because once you’re a young adult, the days go by faster and there’s less time for fun and games. Get off your phone and hang out with your friends and family!!!
ADULT SWIM!
TheCrimsonPugilist that is good memory
I swear, Adult Swim is singlehandedly responsible for my taste in music. I didn't even find this track from Adult Swim and yet here I am
Here because of Logic-The Dream. He sampled this and it was too good to just ignore. I had to find the original.
FlashSquad same
Here because Philadelphia rapper & battle rap great Rone sampled this on a song he has called "Stranger" which i feel is way better than logics remix
Fuck logic
What song is that with logic
@Bryan ok my bad i smoke
Thank you, Hyundai Palasade.
This song makes me feel things. It will be played at my funeral.
Soy el único al que le recuerda esta canción como si fuera la intro de El increíble mundo de Gumball??

Ok yes new joker movie ads saw the Hyundai commercial I knew the song.forgotten. pretty sure the adult swim bumps don't remember which one
My boy Psychological sampled this
Some commercial brought me here, so I googled a song search and here i am.
The Switch brought me here. It's a pretty song.
Thanks to shitty advertising, I don't feel the same way about this song anymore...
thankyou for this music, i am alive thats all that matters
Hyundai brought me here!! So glad to remember this song again!!
Wes Anderson vibes
Why you stealing @Hov1
He’s not. It’s actually Hov1 that is stealing. This was made 8 years ago and Hov1 song was made 2-3 months ago.

@@antonsodergren8722 Oh sorry. I thought you meant that Hov1 didn’t steal.

Finally I found this song it took me years to be exact like 12 years it I remember hearing when I was like 11 roughly and over the years I lost it but randomly it would come to my head every now but could never really pin point who it was who sung it but I found it!!! After all this time Finally I can rest in peacefully
It took me 20 long minutes to remember the name of this band and finally find the song again. I'm so proud of myself right now!
Me too it’s really hard to google if you can’t quite remember the title or band
The beginning makes me imagine driving down a long stretch of road in the desert in an old beat up VW Beetle with a beautiful girl in the passenger seat leaning her head out the window just letting her hair blow in the wind with the sun glinting off it.
1:27 Thanks Cougar Town for introducing me to this song and actually quite a bit of others now that i think of it.
I hope we have all had the chance to carve a lover's name somewhere ... even if it was only on our heart.
This is the kind of music i like to recommend to her
Anyone else here from watching "The Switch"??
seansdaman14 nope i came from google glass
This reminds me so much of summers in London it’s the first place I went to when I heard it especially the 00’s pre smartphone walking around with your house keys and your flip phone which was purely for calling and texting- on your way to somewhere to meet your friends and remembering the directions in your head. And then I saw artwork and I was stunned. I knew it was a London street straight away almost identical to the one I grew up on and he pretty much looks like he’s living the exact scenario it took me to in my head haha I think I stared at it on my Spotify for the whole duration of the song when I first saw it. I mean a song might remind you of an era in your life but I’ve never been THAT accurate before. Love.
falloutgirl902 I wish they could see your comment and confirm how accurate it is
Master Beishline me too! 😂😂
I can't believe this song is over 10 years old
its not
K I N G you're right. I could have sworn I heard this song in '07.
You know what, I swear I heard this song in 2007 too. It sounds like a song that would've come out at that time.
Logic - the Dream
Logic isn't all bad but I can't take that song seriously, feels like such a cheap way to use this sample lol
No thanks
All 6th grade my math teacher played this song, I loved it! I then forgot about it. Now I’m in 7th grade and saw the Hyundai commercial and the memories just hit me like a bullet, thanks mr Hazel for the memories.🤧
The intro is great but the song turns into total cheese after that, unfortunately.
2009 was a great year for music! Miss middle school now lol

And? Complete the story! What happened?
Now it's been a year since you've commented this
I'm 41 you have no idea.
Did u hit?
I actually enjoy the first part even more.
It's a quaint feeling, like a slowly setting sun over the countryside.
bibio must be the happiest dude i listen to
Totally!
i love the intro! so soothing and calming. I'm a dancer and my teacher occasionally uses this song and it makes me so so so happy!!!
Reminds me a bit of Napoleon dynamite
The instrumental sounds like something you would hear in season 1 SpongeBob
more cowbell
0:00 to 1:27
This is nice little tune. Too bad there are people who associate it with RED Spy riding a Baloonicorn.....
Bibio makes me feel like I ate too much candy
Since 2012 this song has saved my life multiple times.
I only recently found this song, and absolutely love it. I especially love the intro acoustic portion.
Does anyone have any song recommendations for similar sounding songs to the intro of this one?
melancholic and upbeat ... just like me lol
It is like " Let everything happen to you. No feelings is forever"
