  • Wonderful!

  • Just a perfect song.

    If you like Album Leaf you may like my solo project, check my channel if you want to, kind of post rock ambient emotional thing.

  • Awesome song. Awesome video. Very well put together.

  • O.C <3

  • I got here from OC season 2.

  • I only know this song from The O.C. :D

  • I've fallen in love with this band. Really... It's just incredible. Their music is the most soothing and perfect sound I can imagine, and it suits me perfectly no matter what my mood is. <3 And this video is just beautiful, by the way. Awesome.

  • I had another mirror of this video in my favourites for a few years. Sadly it got deleted and I have had this song in my head for months but couldn't remember the name of the song or artist :(

    I have literally just found it again after so long. A tear rolls down my cheek.

  • the beginning sounds like this one song that was sort of popular, i cant think of it, if someone could help me out thatd be great

  • @BET360 i totally know what youre talking about...tip of the toungue....damnitt

  • @BET360 Now that's gonna bother me lol. It is a familiar tone I guess, but I can't put my finger on it.

  • My goodness, this is beautiful. I don't remember it being on The OC (it was). But The OC has definitely introduced me to so many amazing bands.. Before I'd ever seen the show (what did I do with my life!!!) I didn't know much at all about good music, but that has changed for sure. Thank you Josh Schwartz and Alexandra Patsavas :')

  • @xaussiexellex harsh true aye, the OC put ridiculously good music on the show, i think that was half of the appeal why so many people watched it. I never knew good music til the show made me get out there and listen to all the bands they featured. cheers

  • amazing how a song can invoke some crazy nostalgic past memories, trippy fucking 6:07 its been.

  • oc

    

  • This reminds me of Slender Man...

  • Best nostalgic soundtrack

  • I could listen to them for FOREVER.

  • nice!! bellazona.blogspot

  • @alesandrah I wasn't crying before, but after reading this comment and listening to the song, I am tearing up. A really sad thing, that was.

  • It makes me cry that 10 people refuse to let this beautiful song touch the hearts.

    Non-lyrical music lets the Listener interpret what the song is about.

  • It's funny how anything looks amazing and artistic in slow motion and emotional music hahaha.... but it's awesome though

  • isnt it the best song that you've ever heard ?

  • i never forget when i saw these guys in a open air museum in iceland, beautiful

  • love it! you guys should check out Rems Floating Chandelier:)

  • I have known about the album leaf as a post rock band for quite some time now but never really gave them a proper listen...I was a fool..THIS BAND IS AMAZING!

  • Busque este video por que salia en un video del css jeje, pero me gusta mucho esta musica, es tranquila y perfecta para conciliar el sueño.

  • the sad... i hast it :( in necessary way. such sadness is welcome :D cheers to y'all good music lovers.

  • very nice...a melody producing great emotions :)

  • wunderschön

  • 2214

  • qué pasada de video, qué pasada de imágenes

    me ha encantado poder disfrutar de 6 minutos de la sencillez de las pequeñas cosas :)

  • i've been listening to nothing but this song since I broke up with my girlfriend. we broke up 2 years ago..

  • @bennyfoldsfive AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHAAA­AAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA

  • it's an amazing song! without words

    it express all the senses in my hearti is my drogue!

  • One word. - Amazing...

  • i've heard they are a true band now and they're playin live but i don't think a live performance could fit the feelings this music gives me...it transcends both time and space...absolutely amazing, like fallin in love on a spring day

  • this music. is 10000 times better than the rubbish other people listen to.

    Is it because everyone else is listening to the rubbish, and this is unique and consequently beautiful. Or is it just the fact that this is simply amazing?

  • @parism94.what I think is...the music played for the public market place IS PRODUCED in order to be unsatisfying, so that you will continue to seek fulfillment in BUYING MORE(consumerism) of what you don't truly need...that mass culture music sells things because it is empty...Music that is true and fulfilling in truth...is it's own SOUL GOAL...and expression of TRUTH. The cable company took BLUEGRASS genre out of their programming..and what I said above is WHY. It's about big money and stuff.

  • This music is incredible! its all i listen to nowa days! the only decent stuff around!

  • So unbelievably good

  • i fucking love it

  • Beautiful..

  • If you guys like Helios, Hammock, Eluvium, Sigur Ros, Parachutes, or The Album Leaf, you might like some of my stuff. I haven’t gotten a whole lot of feedback, so all is appreciated. Thanks

  • beautiful...

  • one of the best post rock band i discovered recently

    Search "So above so below - Remembrance of things past"

    :)

  • pero que maravilla de tema!!!

  • someone needs to play a trance beat behind this song, lolz

    make this shit gangster as fuck

  • physics

  • This made me think of how amazing my God is, that put this gravity into motion, and holds all things together. He is so good to us.

    This is beautiful, I love it!

  • @AbbeySmithy there is no god

    and que the flame war.

  • @mikeiseendonut +1 for thinking out of the box and not being simple minded like the rest.

  • @mikeiseendonut flame war. lol no, I respect your beliefs.

  • @AbbeySmithy hehe that's cool. just would've been funny if 2 billion people started telling me i was going to hell ;-)

  • @mikeiseendonut I hope they don't, because that just makes 'us' look stupid and arrogant. I hope you don't think that of me at least. (You don't have to reply, cause I wouldn't know what to say to this.. lol, these conversations just get awkward after this point. hahaha.)

  • @Loodrome Notice this account is no longer up? Makes you wonder.

  • holly shit

  • What's with people being all emo over this? The song's extremely beautiful yeah but "EVEN A TORTURED SOUL CUT CUT CUT"? Not necessary. Seriously.

  • @SystelCyrus I understand your position, but your comment is equally important as theirs.  Beauty invokes emotion. Emotion should be expressed.

  • @Indigozek Emotion is what's ruining the world's beauty, unfortunately.

  • The video is perfect for the song.

  • I think what the video is trying to say is beauty can happen in a split second. and no one really recognizes the beauty in average days things. Such as a drop of dye in water and a match lighting. There's beauty in everything you just have to look for it...

  • @Loodrome epic much?

  • Soooooooooo chill. <3

  • trippy video.. I seen an orange orgasm at 2:00

  • trippy video..

  • @Loodrome if you wrote this by yourself, then you should start to use this "gift". Write a book or something, im serious!

  • My ex made a mix cd for me while I was pregnant to listen to at night to help me sleep. This, among 7 or 8 other TAL songs were on it. I had no idea who the songs were by, but I've been listening to that damn cd for 3+ years now, and I'm glad I finally found out. I love their music. It helps me study, helps me fall asleep when I'm restless, mellows me out when I'm angry.. Honestly, it calms me in ways that nothing else can. This band definitely deserves an award or twenty.

  • awesome...

  • haha cool song but this stuff is random as hell! and its funny if u think about it=]

  • The reason we unexplainably want to cry when we see nature and all these little things we take for granted is cuz we ARE nature and in times like these a little voice inside all of us whispers: "This is what you are".

  • @Eradinus lol "cereal" is what i am=]

  • I felt like I was that light bulb at 3:16-3:44

  • God rejected me, the Devil sent me back, now im stuck in the middle.

  • anyone know where i can find that drum part? i want to do a cover on guitar.

  • Hmmm. Bees are sorta cool. Never took the time to think about how their wings work.

  • T__T

  • *closes eyes and sighs*

    loser yourself in thought...

  • Its kind of depressing...but i cant not listen to it...it makes me think of someone i love dying, which makes me wanna stop listening, but im tied to the sound

  • This song creates such deep feelings, it's so beautiful.

  • @Loodrome

    an old woman leading a ghost tour once told me, "only the strong die while the weak go on living"

  • @Loodrome

    so true...learning to die is living's greatest challenge

  • Is it weird that I totally want this played at my funeral?

  • @bongwench no, I don't think it's weird.

  • @bongwench

    no it's not. i had the same ideas. this one or "over the pond"

  • intense.

  • i wonder what those 10 people were thinking when they clicked on the "i dislike this" thumbs down button. this is just waaaaaaaay too beautiful to be disliking it

  • Hey, that's Earth.

  • Comment removed

  • gorgeous

  • saw them live last night!!! They did this song. They are AWESOME live, I was not expecting that to be so freakin amazing incredible. No words can describe it except possibly eargasm

  • sad song :(

  • los admiro

  • I dedicate this song to my future wife who I haven't met yet....

  • The sequence that begins at 2:47 is absolutely mesmerizing and just goes to show how god damn beautiful water is.

  • damn this music is so good...gonna check these guys out this April in Denver (already bought tix)

  • I hardly listen to this song because when i do i wanna cry!

    I still carry it in my ipod! =]

  • The first time I heard this song, it invoked a sense of emotion in me and it got me to write a bit on the spot to get it down. May not make much sense but here it is,

    1.

    Who would want to impart

    A sickness hauntin your heart

    Ficticious flauntin in part with

    Habituous remarks to embark

    Been living too hard to process thought

    Up all night not realizing that morning had started

    Dawn then dusk and I've still had not yet departed, I've

    Got to report that I had, lost all remorse

  • 2.

    But it, shot like a dart in my heart and I'm

    Oh so sorry I wont wake to see you tomorrow

    But please dont be filled with sorrow

    Though my body seems hollow, I'm really free

    Free from the cause of human sorrow

    And maybe someday you'll follow

    And I'll show you the light, at the end of the tunnel

    It's really the light the world for so long had shunned from you

  • 3.

    That's why it's blinding, you were stuck in the dark

    Let your eyes adjust till it's clear and calm

    Theres nothing to fear when your hand's in my palm

    I'll hold you close, dont worry, you wont be alone

    Whatever you thought you knew, just forget what you saw

    It was all a facade, everything was flawed

    But dont think I forgot

    Because for you, my love is not lost

  • The song is so much better than the video...

  • This video is absolutely stunning. So powerful, the whole slow motion effect really moved me. The song is perfect with it, as well. Great job.

  • cant wait to hear them live

  • Such beauty. Doesn't make me feel sad but somehow is possible of making me cry.

    It's powerful.

  • @xRaaach

    i know exactly what u mean!

  • @xRaaach thats it.. just wonderful.

  • @xRaaach kill yourself

  • @blueshiftX shove it, bitch. xRaaach can say whatever she/he wants and he/she's putting words out there that many of us feel from this music...It's not a bad thing, but you're just a souless shit head that doesn't get it.

  • @blueshiftX Lol what crawled up your ass and died?

  • @blueshiftX wow someone is a bit grumpy. Appreciate the music and shut up.

  • beautiful and true

  • Great shots. BEautiful. PLus the song goes perfectly

  • when i die, i want this to be the last thing i ever hear.

  • The lightbulb image got me into a bit of a thought.

    Even after he was distressed and tortured, his inner light continued to shine, he carried on after.

    Why people do these things I will never know. The beauty of life is so great that any being should be

    greatful for it, and should not abuse it, nor others. He carried on, after being broken so many times.

    He continued to be happy. And then he was gone, no guilt shone upon the people who did it, they were glad.

  • my god, this is beauty. love this.

  • brings me back =) thanks for the upload

  • beautiful......

  • so beautiful

  • this song makes me so sad every time i hear it. amazing stuff

  • i want some honey nut cheerios now

  • =P! haha

  • holy shit. this is amazing.....

  • This is a really cool, chill song and good vid too.

  • GREAT!

  • This is the beautifulest song in youtube.. no doubt, and the best part is it makes u smiiiile

  • some of the stuff in this vid reminds me alot of the video artist bill viola's work...very slow, capturing, and beautiful.

  • nice ...

    i cant stop cry

  • That video was superb - almost Zen Buddhist.

    If you're not already a professional, you should be!

  • el genero es nu gaze, una variable del indie de hecho es muy parecido al trabajo de Sigur Ros del cual Lavalle es amigo de ellos y curiosamente el disco es grabado en Islandia

  • Great

  • song

  • !!!!!

  • great video and song! xD Karin

  • that orange at 1:50 looks TAAAAASTTYYY!! i love oranges! and album leaf!

  • But I got that heartbreak swag with a broken smile

    Heart broke into peices n thrown into different piles

    See my beautiful minds in the gutters n my broken hearts with God

    With them angels put it back together I will defeat the odds

    No tears baby no fear baby

    Walk into hell like the close is clear baby

    Cleary crazy with a touch of genious

    I aint from mars but I think my girls from venus

    Fuck the world I swear I'm on the wrong planet

    Thats why I go by Astronaut Alek

  • I'm startin to see the game of life is like the game of love

    It's hurts you so bad but up don't wanna give it up

    For nothing, we don't even know why we're alive

    But in the end we'll do almost anything to survive

    A little fucked up if you ask someone like me

    But then I think theres really no one thats somethin like me

    I feel that pain everyday I see the rain everyday

    Even though I feel the sun shinin' right on my face

  • 4:32 is the best part ;)

  • i love this type of music :) what genre is it?

  • Good question. I'd say it's Ambient or Chillout, can also be Lounge (rather not).

  • Ambient / Post-Rock

  • post rock

  • <3 <3 <3

  • what an amazing song, the video makes me realize how insignificant we as humans really are.

  • most is varázsolsz éppen vedd észre

  • esta banda es una de mis favoritas y el video ... dios D: esta de lo mejor :B en verdad buenisimo trabajo (:
