  • Thanks Brian for giving Robert Wyatt some work when he needed it, '74. Not as unlikely an association as it seems. And Phil Manzanera sure helped out in the long run also.

  • Good.

  • Am I the only one who thinks that this song is similar to Born This Way? D:

  • @Meowww331 Yes

  • @ZBadSync I mean, listen to the beginning and tell me that it's not similar to the beginning of Born This Way D: It could be a plagiarism :3

  • @Meowww331

    I agree !

  • @Meowww331 well i guarantee you lady gaga isn't even aware eno exists. she would probably find his music boring because it doesn't have a 'fuck me' beat to it and you can't get drunk to it at a club

  • Brian Eno was the table before Lou Reed even considered becoming one

  • very cool ! thx for sharing

  • What's with 801? :)

  • @stamenvalchev

    "We are the 801 - We are the central shaft"

  • i can't get this song out of my head! so amazing.

    i feel like someone ripped the lyrical style... maybe The Damned, Edward the Bear?

    does anyone know other songs in the same vein? i'm hooked.

  • love it

    specially the black and white fractials :)

  • Very, very Eno!

  • Trippy video! Love it!

  • So did you read that Eno into Hermeticism?

  • God DAMN very brilliant.

    p.s. bottom half of 801 is OUI

  • what about this "801"number?

  • Great work,ZBadSync...nice to put those visuals you discovered to a masterpiece of cute eccentric modernist pop! Appreciations

  • Cool use of fractals btw...very appropriate for this song

  • Very nostalgic...I grew up on Brian Eno, and very thankful for that...Very cool video, thank you:)

  • This is one of the best "videos" on You Tube --- THANKS for doing this!!! Reposting everywhere - - -

  • Wich album is it from?

  • I wish he made more song's like this. It's so awesome, i think i'm addicted to it.

  • alternative big bang theory theme

  • What is it with 801 number? can anyone tell me?

  • see brian eno didn't need bryan ferry but just think of the music they would have produced had they stuck together....

  • Great video, love the elements you used. and of course, Brian Eno..."mi papi".

  • Nice. I love Eno so much more than all those people he made so famous. He's so cheeky and warm. Thanks. Fun visuals.

  • Choosy programmers choose GIF!

  • No bass for this video?

  • i love this song ,love your video....35 years ago when i was wearing out tthe grooves on the album i was the night manager of the hotel in the picture@3:41....thanks for the memories

  • @phs9452

    The Sir Francis Drake Hotel??? Thats kinda cool......you know that this song was inspired by a dream Eno had at that very hotel?

  • @ZBadSync i never met eno, but i did meet many celebrities there..i am so sorry that the hotel is gone.

  • I had the vinyl of this back in the day.  I too used to see the 801's everywhere.

    Random meaningfulness.

  • Fantastic technology and Sacred Geometry clips !!! I'm posting it on the UFO Roundtable. I love it, the video and of course the song !!

  • If you collapse the guitar part after "here we go" to mono, you will hear the most awesomefuckedup phasing, and the great dissolve of the central shaft

  • the guitar solo in this song emulsifies my brain and it runs out of my nose and down the street. this album is just so creative and cool.

  • what's the one with the infinite buildings?

  • This is such an amazing, fun creative song.

  • Stellar video, man!

  • Stellar dude!

    

  • C'est magnifique.

    

  • Quite Brilliant !! I especially thought the 3 Tarot cards were very clever :)) One of the Greatest Videos from one of my Favorite Artists -- Thank you so much for your work :)

  • @LibbyTheOstrich

    Thanks for the compliments...but I have to admit, the taro cards come directly from Eno himself. I got a lot of the ideas for this video from the book "More Dark Than shark" I was very happy that I found taro images that were numbered VII O I

    I SEE 801's EVERYWHERE....fyi.... the 801 painted on the sidewalk is on the corner from where I live.

  • you've got to love those synth squelches

  • now this is good

    well it was. till they sang all incomprehensible and weak sounding.

  • @OneMoreForTheRecords Now this is good when they sang incomprehensible and weak souncing chorus versus Brian (Row, Row Row!)

  • now this is good

  • Thanks this is cool

  • Should have a million viewers more !

  • I LOVE this song and I LOVE this video.

  • excellent video

  • Sooooo Goooood.

  • Very Cool.

  • sick video dude

  • Thanks...I can remember when my friends and I sang ding ding at the same time. ENO. United us as a seperate reality. Alot of fun. All of these are great.

  • I found this mesmerizing and hilarious. Good job.

  • Interesting, added to fav. For further understanding.

  • Good job!

  • What an amazing song, in many ways the rock star Eno is different from the Ambient one we all know :)

  • I'm 33 from Canada and I've discover Eno just 2 years ago with these 4 albums:

    - Here Come the Warm Jets

    - Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy)

    - Another Green World

    - Before and After Science

    I'm really hooked by Another... and Before... and I've purchased them.

    Can someone tell me where I go next to continue my trip in the Eno discography?

  • @MrPhil801 You'll be heading off into the ambient stuff now. 'Discreet music', 'Music for airports', 'On Land'....among many others. Check out the 'Music for films' albums & 'After the Heat' with Moebius & Rodelius.

    'No Pussyfooting' is a must, with Fripp. There are many collaborations to explore. Happy Hunting!

  • @RoverenderAlligator Thanks for the tip!!! I will try these. I've listen to "Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks" and I've found that it's good stuff. No weaknesses in this album. Thanks again!!

  • @MrPhil801 I think you have his best albums. He's got a lot of great work though. Music For Films is a great instrumental album. It's quite mellow, not at all like his rock albums, but I don't know if it's ambient. Unlike anything really. I also enjoy The Drop, although it is nowhere as developed or sophisticated as his early albums. It's kind of like half-baked jazz. Not overly complex, but I appreciate it.

  • 55 and first saw Eno in 1973

  • 51, discovered in the very early 80's.

    Oh and that an awesome vid for this song, just great!

  • @MyLatestEscape I'm 51, and have been a lover of Eno since '77, after listening to Roxy Music's "For Your Pleasure. Thrilled that people still like this stuff!

  • 51, discovered in the very early 80's.

  • this is one of the wittiest homemade vids ever

    the 801 theory is sublime

  • 19... Y si, "We are 801"!!!! Culeras!!!! xD

  • I'm 60, and have to listen to this song at least once a week to blow the accumulated crap out of it. Better than therapy.

  • I believe the Master Himself would enjoy this

  • @xt0olx 14

  • 48 very well done smile of the week I like the tesseract and the old installation on Mars aligned to Orion same as Egypt , Chaco Canyon, and Tikal I think? also the cycling Pi which made me think of black holes as condensers and converters turning energy inside out and the fractal Escher Building

    as above so below Thanks

  • @fejcreature ye know too much!

    52

  • Oh and i guess it's my turn, im turning 20 :)

  • 50 M Eno fan since '70s

    Nobody can touch Eno and his friends

    suggest enhancing with 420, headphones and solitude : )

  • Trippy and great that some many respondents are in their teens. That proves the freshness of the music has not diminished. I'm 56 and still listen to Eno's '70s output on a regular basis.

  • This song has a strange effect on me. It's almost like it bores into my ears (must be a good thing)...

  • 29 years

  • 20 I'm also quite new to this but still fascinated by it

  • @xt0olx 18

  • this video is fantastic. great job.

  • I'm 49 & have listened to Eno since I was 15.

  • age 47.

    I confess to being unaware of Eno's "pop" works until seeing, in an early collection of Roxy Music video and other footage, film from when "Paw Paw Negro Blowtorch" was being recorded. That led to HCTWJ, and later TTM(BS), and 801. Marvelous stuff.

    ZBadSync, I can't tell you how many times I've gone to this for an Eno fix. Thanks.

  • @xt0olx 14

  • im 19 by the way. i cant get enough of this track is AMAZING!

  • I am 70

  • People that love brian eno and this song please say your age. I'm interested in knowing the age of the men and women that listen to stuff like this.

  • @xt0olx 50 years old in earth years, but on my native planet in a distant galaxy, i'll be 3.74982 gyronens on the coming anniversary of my origination. jya ne tomodachi.

  • @salgoudsamoht Salgoudsamoht! It's been so long! What luck to come across you on earth. We must meet up, I 've much to tell you about the desperate state of affairs on Tuurfulbok. Good news about the exploration of the Uubircirgis galaxy.

    I went back to Gaugonchon for my son's betrothal to Nepuuluu and enjoyed a good party and a bit of a hangover before back to work here. Studying, learning. Interesting. Looking forward to my holidays in November and a trip to Squat with Sheren. Happy days!

  • @ritchiepeyton yes indeed, we must confer soonest, perhaps within a yazimrapunin, or 1/37th of a kaleptumirvanul, our basic unit of time, since the gyronens are too messy to deal with in a vindeznutalalul way. until then, iqsburovaluzul, or as the humans say, sayonara for now.

  • @xt0olx I'm male, Northern Californian, age 56. Became an Eno fan after buying the first Roxy Music album when it was brand new. The Eno albums sound as fresh today as they did in the 1970s.

  • @xt0olx Well I'm in my 54th year.

    First heard this stuff, seventies.............

    This music still does it for me!

    Roxy without Eno wasn't Roxy!

    Lets get it understood................

  • @xt0olx 21, but I've loved this song since I was about 17 or so.

  • I'm guessing that this would be the video Eno would have actually wanted for this brilliant track!

  • that was finefinefine: goodgoodgood

  • this guys is a pure genius. To be remembered with the best.  Put his music in space!

  • I do love this song but since I don't have it right now. I do tend to watch your version many many times. Eno would approve . It's a fantastic visual.

  • 801

  • Nice one!

  • this lie life... jarring, fast, interwoven, in flux, happiness, sadness, angst, and mystery... very cool... video and a very cool song... Eno is th' man...

  • Comment removed

  • Nice 801 touch.)

  • i think i'm in love with this video, amazing compilation of stuff that describes life's hyperbole

  • well thought out video and classic eno, i loved it

    top marks

  • excellent job!

  • great job on the vid, really connects, excellent song one of my old fav's for sure.

  • As an Eno fan for the best part of forty years I say well done that man/woman. A truly excellent video to one of my all time favourite Eno songs.

  • love eno

  • Hard to think he made 'an ending' when you listen to this song.
