  • everything is for commercials now..everything for money..nothing for quality music!

  • This song has seen me grow!

  • When I'm listening the Mazzy Star albums I really think that I don't need any more music than this in my life.

  • now this is called talent and a great song not those auto tuned piece of shit.

  • There was a day, when MTV was a good television.

  • I was just watching Foxfire like 13 years after I watch it the first time and this song is my favourite from that movie when I heard it again lots of memories from that time came to my mind and I realized that this song was pierced forever in my mind. We need more music like this now a days, true music.

  • @TheViva11 yeah it does, there's 19 idiots in the world.............

  • wow...this shit just floors me every time i hear it. If i could find a female vocalist with her prowess, i could die happy.

  • @xxdead21xx 46, seriously. Hope Sandoval is here name.

  • Hope has one of the most beautiful and haunting voices in music. Mazzy Star has a new album coming out Dec. 2012 and a tour to go w/it. Don't miss her live! An LA native, she's amazing!

  • @jaxorbetter Dec 2012??!! We have to wait a whole year for that album? No, please. I thought they were gonna tour early 2012, with the album following in spring.

  • too bad the ones turning into dust cant enjoy this song

  • Still falling Breathless and on again Inside today Inside me today Around broken in two Til your eyes share into dust Like two strangers turning into dust Til my hand shook with the weight of fear I could possibly be fading Or have something more to gain I could feel myself growing colder I could feel myself under your fate Under your fate It was you, breathless and torn I could feel my eyes turning into dust Into strangers, turning into dust Turning into dust Turning into dust
  • @Triumph72 well said my man.. who cares which forum someone is introduced to something, as long as they are introduced to it

  • Oh crap she does look like child Alma from F.E.A.R ALL SHE NEEDS IS A RED DRESS AHHHHHHHHHHHHH

  • I'm not a big gamer, but if you watch the comercial the song fits. It tuggs at the soul......

  • Me and an angel kissed with this song sometimes.. Very slow ..

    And we can feel what people can't see.

    What this rotten world has forgotten.

    This song is the magic in our hearts.

    Sorry for my English I'm from Spain. :)

  • As a huge Mazzy Star fan, I must say that this might just be their best song. It's so quiet yet so intense.

  • People who get upset about this song being used for a video game ad need to get a grip. Relax, calm down, take a fucking pill. A whole new generation of kids who otherwise would NEVER have ever heard ANY Mazzy Star now know this song, and like it. This is a good thing. Get off your snooty, indie-rock high horse, take down the walls of pretention for one second and accept that I am correct. I have spoken. And so it shall be, and so it is.

  • The crush I had on this girl in the mid-90s was EPIC!!!!!

  • I just heard this at the end of an episode of House on TV. Terrific song! Thanks for posting. Never thought I'd find it.

  • @CommentsSurvey Easy to find. The album "So Tonight That I Might See" was a modern rock hit back in '93. Great music. So haunting and beautiful.

  • @Triumph72 : Thanks, and agree. Beautiful and haunting.

  • Fuck. This is so unbelievably beautiful. It's hard to find beautiful songs like this anymore.

  • @FlamingoSnuff soo true acually good music

  • im so in love!

  • its kind of underground with a experimental

  • they should play this during the hunger games movie

  • @Dullboy8 *Thumbs up*

  • GEARS 3

  • @innos I love that so many people now know this song from that game :)

  • @Triumph72 whats ur gamertag ill add u

  • @innos Don't have one sorry.

  • still what they did makes up for the lack of volume of songs listen I use to be low I'm not anymore so I know whats it's like to ride the white horse and chase white rabbits into the night

  • Mazzy didn't have but 1.5 hits, however they had a cultish following. I'm still one of them. Even tho they aren't together, Hope Sandoval still performs and records. I still think Mazzy was the best. Seems youth and creativity go together. Most artists have their best stuff early in their career.

  • @bamasonshine they're back together

  • Loves it,...

  • If you saw it in an advert or if you were smoking dope at the front of the live set, music is timeless, show the band some credit where credit is due, and thank the lord for the ability to record, a live set ment even more 200 years ago! Love to all, love to music.

  • A cd is what you will need to borrow from me when your "cloud" shorts out and loses records of your purchases. The real brilliance in this is remembering an 17 year old song and associating it with "total destruction". I read that they do not own the rights to their recirded music and are preparing another tour/album. Maybe they cash in like they should......

  • It kills me that a video game brought this song to people's attention. Maybe this is a sign of my old age, but I bought the cd. Not sure if you young kids know what those are. Now where is my flannel shirt?

  • @abw82 get outa here old man, and what the hell is a cd?

  • @abw82 It shouldn't kill you. It's a good thing. Mazzy Star is in the consciousness of teens again, like it was 1993 all over again. So it's in a video game ad, so what.  Lighten up.

  • This song is pure sorrow and despair.

  • thanks gears of war for showing me some more good music

  • She looks so fragile..Such a beautiful voice.

  • I LOVE YOU HOPE... SINCE YOUR 5 STRINGS SERENADE I DID FADE INTO YOU..

    WOULD YOU MARRY ME?

  • does look like Alma from F.E.A.R tbh.. 

  • This song is timeless. First time i heard it i had no idea it was originally from the 90's. it gives me good chills :D

  • I Love her and the song. She reminds me of the little girl from the "F.E.A.R" game in this video,

  • Alma has a killer singing voice.

  • Won't lie,only here bcos of GOW ad....but wot a stunningly beautiful and hypnotic tune...best av heard in fuckin years.

  • @maccalou All good dude. The early 90s had amazingly good music. If it takes a video game to get kids to realize this, then so be it.

  • WOW! down right hypnotic.

  • Fucking Love It

  • Tell me she doesn't remind you of the girl from F.E.A.R.

    Great song btw. <3

  • @iWillOwnUIfUWant OMG she does! :o

  • @iWillOwnUIfUWant she reminds me of the girl from my dreams lol

  • she looks like Samara from the ring :( but i adore her :D

  • @xsarahgallagherx oh no she does not )

  • this tune amazing

  • Back when MTV still played music.

  • @InfamousMrK The leyend told us once ...

  • the only reason i got to hear this song and buy it was bc of Gears of Wars

  • she looks like that F.E.A.R 3 girl :D haha

  • @DmsdyMisanthrope ~I don't think she ever really wanted recognition. Not her vibe. She never wanted fame and never sold out early in her career. Long live the Paisley Underground!!!!~

  • Can't people just stop going on about where they found the song and use the comment section for what it is meant for; showing an appreciation for the video content. If you want to chat about Xbox then go find the actual advert and vent there.

    Great song x

  • I want to play Gears of War 3

  • @reaper0004 sucks for u

  • I love her and this song...don't be a hater on her because she's beautiful and your not

  • Still falling

    Breathless and on again

    Inside today

    Inside me today

  • like it you found it touching

  • Love this song. Hope they got paid good from the makers of Gears Of War to use this song in their trailer, they deserve it.

  • @GoldenGhost42 they didn't get paid for anything, their old label has screwed them over and over again (Capitol) but just today they announced their first release in over 15 years so that's something.

  • first heard it on MTV when it was first released.

  • I LOVE YOU HOPE SANDOVAL...YOU ROCK ON..SISTER!!

  • VIVA MEXICO!!!!

  • Does anyone else think she looks like Alma from FEAR?

  • It's ALMA!

  • Notice how she sounds the same live as the actual song, and how other artists can't sound the same anymore.

  • @tobisgood97 that's because those "artists" can't even sing to begin with! it's all about auto tune now

  • @tobisgood97 have you listened to ne-yo

  • @IILLawlietII

    yes you are.

  • Dust to Dust

  • dont give a fuck if a heard this on the gears of war advert, i eally dont..introduced me to the song...if a never play the first guitar hero, i would'nt kno who the fuck pearl jam are, i do now n fuck all use people who think "i knew this before this" who the fuck cares

  • Is this a rip off of the DOORS?

  • @Pablo113 No because the Doors are shit and couldn't produce something to this quaility

  • love this song since the 90s... thought i was only one who knew bought album back then. GOW3 commercial brought it back. Thanks!!

    I love the irony that this is the most unlikely weepy song for a gore-fest video game! Very funny!

  • Gears of war 3 trailer bought me here

  • Gown brought me here, but I love 90s music anyway. Great song, she sounds like the girl from portishead.

  • the early 90s! those were the days!

  • 14 con

  • just discovering Mazzy Star :)

  • Pop Culture is amazing :)

    Mazzy Star was awesome in an obscure early 90's sort of way,

    1 minor hit song (and this wasn't it)........

    2011:

    a 30-second video game commercial brings a a new generation of younger fans to this beautiful song and artist

    very gratifying......... well done

  • @SoCalDazed it doesn't really matter cuz 30 seconds later, they will move on to another commercial, it's a very ADD culture these days :(

  • @SoCalDazed not just a young audience im a who and stones fan aged 55 and i love this

  • mazzy star is totally flippin awesome love her voice love her words, sooo much passion, screw anybody that doesn't like her.,... don't hate cause u aint all that

  • Fucking xbox dickheads. Perhaps if you left your semen soaked room for a second and experienced life and music and wildlife and hiils and bonfires and love and sex and sadness and beauty, you may eventually get this song, until then, keep tossing over lara croft.

  • Is this what Alma would be like from fear if she sang a song?!?!?

  • ime old school heard it long time ago still a soothing song 93 good times

  • jeez... heard this on that xbox commercial and just had to find out the singer...

  • I heard that this girl likes to sing only when the lights are almost fully out and with a small backlight. She is supposedly really shy.

  • @teetson2 way to regurgitate wikipedia douche.

  • i heard it on Charmed long before the video game

  • Comment removed

  • this song makes me cry im cryin right now brother for lifeee team gear 3

  • The song is very melancholy and soothing...I love it. I'm not sure how I missed how song back in the day.

  • Comment removed

  • what planet have i been on ??????

  • huh, i didn't know Alma could sing

  • @videonoob13 So few will get this joke. Hillarious!

  • @videonoob13 So few will get this joke. Hillarious!

    

  • Thumbs up if this a stoic, dark song.

  • Yes the GoW3 Trailer brought me to this video. I had never heard this song before, nor am I a video game fan. I always looked down to my laptop and away from the TV when commercials would begin. But somehow this song captured my attention and drew me in. I just had to search for it and listen to it in its entirety. Beautiful light acoustics and strings.  Ms Star's voice is soft and serene. I love it!

  • Have been in love with the entire album for going on 14 years now. I am happy she is getting more well known. I just wish it didn't have to be because of a violent video game. Her music is too beautiful and transcendental to be included in that. Please don't hate on me simply for stating my humble opinion.

  • Excuse me whilst I clean up my earjizz.

  • Thumbs up if you don't give a shit where you heard it?

    Actually I'm not a thumbs up whore, fuck that.

  • @IILLawlietII lol I'm actually just discovering this group, thank you to advertising companies that bring us artists that some of us have never known. I won't buy the game but I will look for this group...

  • @IILLawlietII unintentional whore.

  • all those ridiculous wailing slags out there singing sickeningly obvious shit tunes there mum hoovers to, take not you have no talent, this is scincereity and it doesn't need to be shouted! or warbled or gym-nastified cheep nasty tarts

  • @fradaja what?

  • @johnnybumbum i meant to say, take note,all you rediculous whailing slags etc etc, basically this is the shit!!!!

  • @fradaja in your opinion this is shit thats not the truth

  • @johnnybumbum i said "the Shit" my brother has dyslexia too!
