It's Summer 2023. To this day, I always play this song at least once or twice whenever I travel. Whether via car, train, boat or plane, as if it's tradition. The perfect travel song DOES exist.
i agree!! the best travel song.
i also remember this song in the biggest change of my life transitioning to moving out permanently in 2013 at 18... love this song for that
THIS! so much THIS! 🙌
same here! but i play the whole album
Same here❤️
yes, this is such a summer/travel song! feels so nostalgic haha
10 years of this masterpiece.
11 soon
literally feels like it was 3 years ago or something
This would have been a massive hit in the 80s.
P0rn
No song with a Latin grammar lesson in it would have ever made it onto Top 40 radio in the '80s.
Gives me The Human League vibes
@@noneofyourbusiness4616 can't we all just . . . get hard?
@@Jadenoffical Truth reminds me of The Lebanon of The Human League
I just can't get enough of Dream Pop It's surreal. Like a vivid dream
Thanks for telling me the genre type, I never knew!
Yo u guys check out heaven - palace
Life in the vivid dream
It's indie Rock
Checkout Gravegonzo then, new Dream Pop band
Listening to this driving through the Sonoran desert outside of Tucson with the towering saguaro cacti and millions wildflowers is unreal. The vibes are unmatched.
8 years later and this is still a vibe 🙌🏾
Still here 2024! ;)
2:05 “Amo amas amat amamus amatis amant amavi amavisti amavit amavimus amavistis amaverunt amavero amaveris amaverit… Everything was love. Everything will be love. Everything has been love. Everything would be love. Everything would have been love. Ah, that was it, the truth at last. Everything would have been love. The huge eye, which had become an immense sphere, was gently breathing, only it was not an eye nor a sphere but a great wonderful animal covered in little waving legs like hairs, waving oh so gently as if they were under water. All shall be well and all shall be well said the ocean. So the place of reconciliation existed after all, not like a little knot hole in a cupboard but flowing everywhere and being everything. I had only to will it and it would be, for spirit is omnipotent only I never knew it, like being able to walk on the air. I could forgive. I could be forgiven. I could forgive. Perhaps that was the whole of it after all. Perhaps being forgiven was just forgiving only no one had ever told me. There was nothing else needful. Just to forgive. Forgiving equals being forgiven, the secret of the universe, do not whatever you do forget it. The past was folded up and in the twinkling of an eye everything had been changed and made beautiful and good.”

It's been 11 years, this is officially a classic record! It's timeless..the tears start to really flow at 4:07 it's so beautiful, I never want it to end.
You're right this is a classic. It's ethereal.
This is my freedom-moment after a painful seperation. I drove over a bridge with my bicycle and then this happened - i felt free and light.
I'm a Generation Xer and this is EXACTLY how music and music videos used to be in the 80's. Sheer freakin' poetry! Glad to see that actual art and creativity are making their way back to the music scene. It's been WAY too long!
What other songs do you recommend

Somehow takes me back to the 80s but still connected to now. Great job. 👏
If anybody was wondering what she's saying at 2:06, she's conjugating the present, the perfect and the anterior future of the indicative mood in latin, literally "I love, you love, she/he loves, we love, you love, they love ||| I loved, you loved, she/he loved, we loved, you loved, they loved ||| I will have loved, you will have loved, she/he will have loved".
Thanks. I like this song but this chick is pretentious as heck. Who does she think she is? Socrates?
socrates was greek.
@@dianademara5637 Socrates is a pretentious douche too
@@talkingmudcrab718 its just poetry.. relax..!
@@Thousand.cranes.bonsai It's from a book by Iris Murdoch, the clue is in the video!

more like 80s
10 years of this masterpiece, still cant get enough of it.
Dancer in the night
playing with my eyes.
Velvet tongue so sweet
say anything you like.
Crush me with the lies
and tell me once or twice
that love is paradise,
that love is paradise
Dancer in the night
playing with my eyes.
Velvet tongue so sweet
say anything you like.
Crush me with the lies
and tell me once or twice
that love is paradise,
that love is paradise.
The poem:
Amo.
Amas.
Amat.
Amamas.
Amatis.
Amand.
Amave.
Amavisti.
Amavet.
Amavenus.
Amavestis.
Amaveret.
Amavero.
Amaveris.
Amaverit.
Everything was love.
Everything will be love.
Everything has been love.
Everything would be love.
Everything would have been love
Ahh...that was it. The truth at last.
Everything would have been love.
The huge eye which would have become an immense fear was gently breathing only without an eye, nor a sphere.
But our great wonderful animal, covered in little waving legs like hairs.
Waving, oh so gently as if they were underwater.
All should be went and all should be well said that ocean.
So the place of reconciliation existed after all.
Not like a little, not wholly uncovered, but flowing everywhere and being everything.
I had only to will it and I would be.
For spirit is omnipotent, only I never knew it.
And being able to walk on the Earth.
I could forgive. I could be forgiven.
I could forgive. Perhaps that was the whole of it after all.
Perhaps being forgiven is just forgiving and no one had ever told me.
There was nothing else needful.
Just to forgive.
Forgiving equals being forgiven.
The secret of the universe.
Do not whatever you do forget it.
The past was folded out and in the twinkle of an eye and everything had been changed.
And made beautiful and good.
I still can't find a perfect written version of the spoken word...
Hey there @Chesus Jrist , if you're still looking! The spoken word bit is an excerpt from Iris Murdoch's novel "A Word Child" and can be found on page 298!
Amo amas amat amamus amatis amant amavi amavisti amavit amavimus amavistis amaverunt amavero amaveris amaverit… Everything was love. Everything will be love. Everything has been love.

This song is cued up and the first to play every time I go to Las Vegas ... I hit "play" as I enter the highway and am heading north on I-15. It's especially intoxicating when it's late at night. Weather is hot. Windows down. An ethereal experience.
Totally. This is my go to "golden hour" summer song to drive to.
this is one of the KEYS to a good Las Vegas vacation, grab a rental car at the airport and just drive in ANY direction, you can't go wrong
I used to detest 80's sounding music. Music is so much better when you embrace it all, just like life. It gives you more perspective. This whole album is amazing.
patrick flynn life is embracing everything that it is...dude.
Man, i think u didn't listen to any of 80's music..Do you really detest Cure, Depeche, Echo, Smiths, INXS, Midnight Oil, Pet Shop, U2, Metallica, Guns n Roses, Foreigner,REM, Police,Dire Straits....etc etc..Man, its either u are deaf, or dead....
The nostalgic of the 80s and early 90s....ugh! This song is powerful.
Chill wave my dude
Michelle Williams in the video is a plus. Amazing song :)
A girl name Claudia introduced me to Wild Nothing. Thanks Claudia, you are an 11/10 in every way.
sweet bro. closet in love?
Is this a Stranger Things reference?
nope :)
A girl name Candelaria introduced me to Wild Nothing (:
Daniel Cruz an app called Pandora showed me them ❤
Can't believe it's been 4 years since I fell in love with this song......music is my greatest lover
8 years for me and counting :)
10 ❤
~25 for me ;)
i love the 80s vive of this
Yeah it's got a great VIVE
Sean Bovia im really feelin this great VIVE
renzorco I agree tis very 80s
renzorco Totally vivin' off this track
renzorco I can't get enough of this vive
who's in 2020 pandemic listening to this and just wondering and missing everything?
Once we were travelers. Now I know what it's like for the people born in countries, with a lack of human rights to be free to go anywhere they want to. Paradise.
2021 BRO! and people still sleepin on dream pop

The actual song (not just the video) should feature the poem read by Michelle Williams. Absolutely the best part.
Williams just narrated Brittany Spears book - the woman in me
Drove to the West side of Texas during the sunrise listening to this and the rest of that album. Pure bliss.
I can't stop listening to this
Serotonin hits different when you're dancing to this song on full blast alone
I love this video. I remember gemini first coming out and it was the only thing on my ipod. I listened to it on repeat during a 3 hour flight (my first flight). It was at dawn and I watched the sun peek through the clouds and remember being mesmerized by it, and the album made it so surreal. Love this video, love Wild Nothing, and will continue to love their music.
Similar story here. It's a great album.
This comment changed this song for me...love when people think of music in memories that way.
I can't believe that I just discovered this amazing band. I'm shocked. I am way into indie/alternative back to the 80's and 90's until now. The American music scene makes no sense at all. How is this band not blaring through the streets on every radio wave? Keep jamming Wild Nothing!
the genre is called Dream Pop, and I'm so sorry you missed the golden age of Dream pop
I feel like I've heard this song before but idk where. The sound is just so beautiful and makes me think about life in general.
3am, all alone and i came back to this song just because it randomly popped up in my head. and im honestly really curious why this song has 2 million views and only 28k likes? i hope they saved this song at least! Such beautiful music that I NEEDED!! Spread the love whoever is reading this:)
This song could be an hour long and I could still listen to it over and over again and NEVER get tired of it! Audio ecstasy!
I am sure she's thinking of Heath here and the whole song and video somehow has a spirit of him, their love, their life and their story together
Sometimes I sit there and sit in a pity party over how fucked up the world is...I sit there and wonder why the hell life is so fucking unfair.
I get angrier and angrier over the cares of this life...
And then there are times when I find music like this and I feel like all is well again. Fucking ironic and incredible. Thank you, Wild Nothing.
I hate that the album version doesn't have the monologue. It makes the song so much better.
There's a monologue??
Yeah when she is talking
He’s probably talking about the iTunes or cd version.
Cause I have it on iTunes and their is no monologue.
@@murraylindsay6880 iTunes.
I kind of miss Michelle Williams poetry part when I listen to the album version after watching this.
Chapter 38....The secret of the universe
“Amo amas amat amamus amatis amant amavi amavisti amavit amavimus amavistis amaverunt amavero amaveris amaverit… Everything was love. Everything will be love. Everything has been love. Everything would be love. Everything would have been love. Ah, that was it, the truth at last. Everything would have been love.

My gold I could die to this song, I can say without overreacting that I do not love another song better than this one. As I heard it for the first time is was like a revelation of myself, and seeing them live in Vienna; Austria a fez years ago elevated the whole band to the level of gods.
This song is so amazing. Makes you dream of those perfect moments that haven't happened with someone yet. This video makes me miss Canada so much. So many beautiful memories from Niagara Falls.
Did you live in the area?
Still here 2024. Killer bass line
that spoken word section was amazing
awesome 80s vibe
vive
+Danny Bies it feels 90's disko to me, mixed with some modern rock!
+Erjon Dividi Nah sounds pure 80's synthpop, sounds exactly like New Order to me. Love it!
+Derek Pettifer Keepin' the "Vive" alive
supravista I'm sorry it's been so long since I posted that, wtf is vive again?
I really can't remember who showed me this. But I wish I could hug that person right now.
I used to hang out at Niagara Falls, I totally know where she was standing looking at the falls. Good memories.
Niagara Falls Canada??!! :o
No I mean the specific spot where she was standing.
Ya I know that :p But are you talking about NF Canada or America??
Definitely Canada. I lived in Buffalo NY but I always hung out at Clifton Hill on the Canadian side because the American side is a broken skuzzy post-industrial wasteland.
Bradley J. Timm
haha word man!! That's wicked!! I'm from the Falls!! I was shocked to see someone commenting on it about it :p And yaaaa, it's not really the greatest, which is a shame really. Alot of potential.
Amo amas amat amamus amatis amant amavi amavisti amavit amavimus amavistis amaverunt amavero amaveris amaverit.
Everything was love. Everything will be love. Everything has been love. Everything would be love. Everything would have been love.

First time I listen to this version that includes the woman speking about love. Paradise is such greeeeaattt!
-Iris Murdoch, A Word Child
I love Michelle Williams!
Michelle Williams....ohhh boy, which is prettiest the song or her, tied.
This is my favorite song of all time
I remember when Nocturne had just come out. I was using an iPod nano then... simpler times.
the days
Tight production. Love those sweeps and the guitar. Very 80's tinged. Lyrics are simple. I think Psychadelic Furs mixed with a little of New Order. Same key as Washed Out- Feel it all around. Listen to this and that back to back.
Yeah it’s called chill wave… a lot of bands were doing it in 2009. My favorite!
So much feels in one single song.
2024! And this still gets played in the summer for me! Has to be done
Que música maravilhosa.
verdade.... até relaxa
Welcome to the 80's. Awesome
I'm getting a vibe of depeche mode in this song
YES
Aaron Quigley and a lot of New Order
love, love, LOVE this video. Forever. Until the end of time.
This song slaps so hard, and the lyrics "love is paradise" are just perfect
Thank you for this song.. hints of the 1980's New Wave.. Great Job..
THE WAKE - WORLD OF HER OWN (1985) IT"S ALMOST THE SAME SONG!!! DOES ANYONE AGREE?
check it out...The Cat Club - One Last Kiss (Demo Version)
I love this song so much! It's 2024 and still on repeat 😌🌠 my masterpiece
one of the best tracks of 2012..
thanks... arts and craft and greets from peru
This is so beautiful I'm always speechless
Why do I tear up every time the woman's voice starts talking mid song
Reminds me so much of Cut Copy, golden carefree youth days... I'm still there in a sliver of my soul.. Never give them up easy gentlemen.
Wild Nothing other albums are good but Nocturne, and this song, are just on my all time desert island top 10, must listen over and over timeless classics.
My mom & I both cried the first time we both heard this! Not sure why exactly! It is a truly great song for sure!
I cry almost every time. One of the deepest, most meaningful songs I've ever heard.
Oh that middle section gets me every single time.
this song was, is, and will always be gold❤️🔥🌺💖
Keep coming back to TH-cam for this version with the spoken word. “Everything would have been love”
Thank you for making me float in the sky on peaceful melodic clouds with such beautiful music. A paradise truly.
Melhor música da vida
Right
¿Por qué no existen chicas como esta en mi ciudad? Gran canción. A la misma altura evocadora que "Nocturne"
Wow, brings me back to the 80s big time. One of the few modern bands that has a similar sound as The Fiction Factory, Xymox, Camouflage, ettcc....great song
AMAZING SONG! AMAZING POEM!!! AMAZING BAND!!!!!
bring me back to dat 80's music, love it!
Where have this song been whole my life
The conjugations of "to love" in this song makes my heart break. I never thought a dead language could make me feel so emotional.
Sept 2023 and this Album is always a 💎
First time I've heard this band, not bad at all
+egagnard Both Gemini and Nocturne are incredible albums. If you dig em also check out DIIV, Beach Fossils, Real Estate,...
+Copulaxoxi Ranbooi and Beach House-Bloom
+kobron1559 #paradise
+egagnard well it's not really a band is it, it's like tame impala - actually just one guy composing the tracks. but i agree with what you mean.
jaagupcool6 I understand. I appreciate the clarification
This song is love and life In one 💜🌕
Crazy, i just discovered this masterpiece..... But i feel like it came into my life at the PERFECT MOMENT.. Some songs are just meant to be heard later... When the right moment calls for it 😊
Not sure there has ever been a better song to drive down Pacific Coast Highway at 3:00am too,.......incredible.
Me encanto..me enamore del tema...descargue el libro y vi la serie de nuevo...Dawson's Creek..linda Michelle Willians luego volví a escuchar el tema y así hasta el infinito.
¿Cómo se llama el libro?
I love paradise ❤
Hey! you can found the album in the new blogspot caminoauditivo, cheers!!!!
Amazing that this is in 2012. 80's vibe to the core
this is the most amazing thing I’ve ever visually digested
"every thing will be love "
Thank you Shea Parsons for the introduction to this wonderful music.
So many years later, I can only assume that I influenced this by a comment. I think i commented on maybe cloudbusting that I visualized this listening to wild nothing over and over on a plane. If not, its a crazy coincidence. If so, I'm glad you saw my vision and experience. Wild Nothing will forever be a huge part of my journey.
Still remember her with this song
This song really cured my anxiety
2019 and still one of my fav songs / videos 💫
80's never died
one of my favorite music videos ever
2:06 Melhor viajem, da pra tocar o céu.
Michelle Williams has got some swag. She is fine
funny Tame Impala also had her in one vid, she's got that style that just works!
Omfg I love her and I love Tame Impala! This song has the right synth and percussion to take me back to a time when innocence prevailed. Tell me once or twice, that love is paradise
Michelle Williams has always been so pretty and so modest, people like that are so beautiful
I'm 40 years old.
I think woman are gross ( that way) but Michelle Williams give me a tinkling sensation that moved down my spine.
The down fall ( or perhaps good thing) is she's fiercely private in her life.
When you watch any interviews with her she's not her authentic self, she is still acting.
That's how private she is.
Wild Nothing killing it like always.
Love this track. Reminds me of my bachelor party in Miami ten years ago when my buddies and I were cruising through Miami after chilling on South Beach in the sunset. What a great day that was
Aquí desde Chile escuchando su música, buenisimo! :'D
Just lovely !!!
I still love this as hard as the first time I heard it. Michelle Williams in the vid too, absolute queen.
Im getting a mad 80's pop vibe from this, and I like it!!!!
