[annie10103]

Newman really understands the soul

[vampisemi]

i love the frst part...

[Spike90]

Can't wait to hear this guys take on the new bond film!

[archer1949]

This guy is going to do a Bond score? I'm dubious. I can't see him pulling out the bombastic, pulse pounding, Barry-esque themes like David Arnold did.

We'll see.....

[danny068]

Wow guys, cheer up? These comments couldn't get any more depressing..

[TheisticThinker]

@danny068 I get your point, but reflecting about life and hope is alot better than the typical Youtube comment;

"LOL, THAT GUY G0T PWNED!"

Don't you agree? :)

[PrimeJustice40]

@TheisticThinker Also lauren's Iowa from angelo badalamenti words can't describe what I feel when I hear it.

[danny068]

@TheisticThinker I must admit it's nice to see a video that isn't full of trolls and generic comments :)

[bournebeats]

Good news fellow Newman fans! Thomas has just been chosen to score the new Bond movie 'Skyfall'. Oscar time baby!

[DistortionEGF]

lol at these comments.

[Khan2794]

the most painful feeling a man can go through.....is the feeling of loosing someone he love's

[RAD88]

@Khan2794 I hear you mate. You will find in time though that things will get better. I hope it goes OK.

[Khan2794]

this song makes me think of those days to come when not a day will go by where i dont think of her in some way and not a night will i sleep where i dont dream of her. im going to miss her so much....she made me into a better man than i was before. we both try not to think about it but in the end all we want to do is to hold eachother. all she wants is to be in my arms where she feels warm safe nd secure. she doesnt want to leave me, nd i dont wanna let her go....

[JeVoudrais12]

@Khan2794 are you talking about a past life soul connection dude ?

[Khan2794]

this song made me cry cuz my beautiful angel whom im in love with will be leaving in a few more months. im going to miss her.....alot.....nd idk if ill ever see her again.....each nd evry day i pray for that day she leaves not to come, but it is inevitable. im not ready for the pain im destined to feel....

[SuperUploader111]

56 ppl dont know wat music is

[meatlover305]

56 people didn't pray for michael sullivan

[gavinsolar]

totally unique sound . The film is one of my favorite's as well!

[rawrcalumx]

Search "Ab Aeterno - I Am Haunted". Everyone must know beautiful emotional music like this. Like this comment so everyone can see!

[goofygoat2009]

i have many videos saved to my favorites but...more than ever, i come to this one the most.

[gavinsolar]

Best score i have heard to a film, meaningful soulful and would light up heaven!!

[goofygoat2009]

@gavinsolar it IS heaven

[gspgreatest]

dont understand how any one can dislike this. This is music at it best from the heart and nothing gets better than that. If you just close your eyes and listening to your heart while hearing this song there is no limits for what beauty you will see and create with your own mind. I know that

[narlycharley]

If I close my eyes while listening to this, I get goosebumps. 

[NatashaViolette]

55 people have emptiness where their souls should be.

[coldmemories1]

only a deaf ass can have the absolute willingness to dislike this ...

[wowbobwow37]

Anyone disliking this makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

[leroycops]

Although i feel calmer as this piece opens, I also feel depth and meaning with every thought that enters my mind. When the strings sweep in and progress with interweaving harmonies, I can't help but surrender completley to the power of sound and emotion. My heart swells up and I loose sense of all things. And then it ends, and I find myself craving emotion in anything I can. I think because how we feel is all that matters really. Thank you Thomas Newman.

[rallsinator]

such a great piece of music,play it over and over again,one of those that make you think

[EBE246]

Yeah i feel like tearing alright.

[schmuddelfinger]

thank you rita. . .

[SlushRamen]

this + rainymood = sex

[kiwikittybubble]

Damn this is just so good. I'm so stressed right now, but this song always calms me whenever I'm frustrated. I wish I could talk to Newman.

[jeppius]

wow can't stop listening at it, its absolutely touching

[Skarloe]

Shup foo

[NoyabrNovember]

P.S This is Newman's finest piece. As brilliant as the music he created for the "Shawshank Redemption".

[NoyabrNovember]

Get up early. Warm up. Prepare every muscle you need during the day. Go jogging. Make it to the spot where the sunrise can be seen from the biggest hill in a place you live in. Make it to this place with this piece of music playing in headphones. Watch the sunrise when most of the inhabitants of the area you live in are just waking up or just going to sleep. Watch the sunrise and understand that life is beautiful and you must be happy with it if you have legs, hands, and a working brain. Amen.

[7liamgallagher]

this song makes me cry

[1dtothedot]

HalfJewHalfMisc sent me here!

[TheMcFearsomes]

@1dtothedot  sent me here too!!

[1234rinor1234]

I'm usually into rap and dubstep but I'm not gonna lie... I find this music helps me concentrate on my coursework ensuring that I can get it done easier.

[violetvanille]

it makes you realize that feeling anything, is better than feeling nothing.

[kiwikittybubble]

I know most people will just read this and skim along to the next comment but this song has inspired me to really do something more about my life, not that people would consider it a complete mess, but I have realised so much more. Yes it sounds cheesy and yes you won't get what I mean but this song will always be special to me like no other song has ever been before.

[muntoonxt]

BTW, I suggest you stick to the nature-only images. The rest are cliched or do not fit in with the music. The 'chair image' wasn't too bad either. Beautiful images for a beautiful soundtrack only!

[muntoonxt]

Whoah. I've never listened to Thomas Newman before and... he seems like an underrated composer.

All I have to say is: Speechlessness is not good when you are trying to finish your essay for English class, due tomorrow.

[mrfroho]

this is perfect for rainy moood

[rehm14animeblast1990]

Beautiful music.

[Silverzmash]

A mind without purpose will walk in dark places..

[JeVoudrais12]

stunningly beautiful piece

[TeabagTore]

There is a certain sadness, yes, but also an overwhelming sense of hope in this piece. Hope for freedom and new chances but forever aware of the sorrow of the past. Ambivalence at it's finest.

[Sam62359]

@TeabagTore Well said Teabag ;)

[oosurf08oo]

@TeabagTore beautiful words

[12Ahoc]

Holy fucking hell..

[LadyDiLovesBill]

Wow.... tears

[16badastronaut]

Brilliant movie with a brilliant soundtrack. Simply amazing.

[mikelekos]

Music from soul... Only great heart can make this kind of music!!!

[TimBouman]

What movie is it from u guys?

[kenen112]

@TimBouman  Road to Perdition

[TrillianS8]

@TimBouman Its from the movie of the same name starring Tom Hanks. :)

[HelixWell]

This music makes me feel things more deeply than I've ever felt from other pieces of music. It runs deeper than thought or even emotion. It's impossible to put into words, but I feel as though I'm reborn when I listen to this. Stunningly beautiful!

[MissDeeCole]

its amazing how ordinary this song is until the :25 second mark

[keithasaur0]

I have to admit the pictures plus the music just relaxes me and takes me to a calm, imaginery place. weird but great video!!!!

[aleksandra9678]

Beautiful!

[amr5592]

great music of great film

[lFlash4]

@amr5592 which movie was this?

[MrdotMilk]

@lFlash4 Road to perdition i think !

[omg4life1]

thumbs up if Ray allens Become Legendary brought you here

[brainsick213]

sam mendes has directed one of the most deep films i ever seen.....this movie is one of the greatest of dis decade

[AWiddit]

I think Notch should pay Newman to write music for minecraft

[MegaSuperCritic]

@AWiddit Me too.

[asmelix]

@AWiddit Well, I think Minecraft could get some new sounds and Newman's music would be a great addition. I also think songs like this should be available in radio stations.

[ADMediaEmpire]

Best! Music! Ever!

[16badastronaut]

This song makes me cry. Beautiful :)

[40247]

A true artist. Nice

[triggerman652]

Aaahh music......it's so bitter sweet. Bitter in its ability to bring up reocurring emotions of repressed memories and forgotten pasts. Yet sweet in its ability to shower those memories with warmth, compassion, understanding, and most of all.....love.

[shawszaa]

@triggerman652 You should think about writing. You have a very great ability to convey things to people in a very subtle and positive way, my friend.

[topliff12345]

@triggerman652 , What a beautiful comment, love that x

[RoBMaRley117]

@triggerman652 nicely said, thank you for saying what most of us are thinking but do not know how to say out loud

[MrJapaneseboy1111]

@triggerman652 !

[Cozzy891]

@triggerman652 You couldn't have said that any better..

[Zeppelinwillneverdie]

@triggerman652 nice.. ....iam just curiuos but where were you born .........and what sign are you?????

[MegaSuperCritic]

reminds me of minecraft

[psychedellic420]

@MegaSuperCritic wtf lol

[MegaSuperCritic]

@psychedellic420 just the beginning! Really, it does!

[psychedellic420]

@MegaSuperCritic lol. nice.

[mgomes3413]

love this

[LadyWhoLikesCheese]

i LOVE many of the pictures in this video! GREAT choice of pictures, and of course i love the song

[justforlescomments]

So beautiful.

Road to Perdition is, by far, one of the most underrated movies. Ever.

[musicsoothesusall]

@justforlescomments

ABSOLUTELY CORRECT !!!!! "ROAD TO PERDITION IS ROAD TO PERFECTION IN MY BOOK !!! THE STORY AND THE MUSIC GO HAND IN HAND....AHHHHHH, MAGNIFICIENT

[fatizoo1000]

When he wins an Oscar, I'm gonna kill myself of happiness.

[addiea11]

only one question, how can someone dislike such a wonderfull piece of music?

[TheMattyDaddy]

@addiea11 Look in the dictionary under "trolls".

[ForWeAreNotAlone]

The road to perdition is one of the greatest films of all time! Thomas Newman/Thomas Hanks, you cant go wrong!

[MrSammyftw]

Enertia of Life

life moves in one direction, and that is forward, life has memories some good some bad, but life will keep moving and leave the memories of the past behind. -Samuel Kael Joiner

[psychedellic420]

@MrSammyftw just as the wake does not move the ship, past does not move the present. But just as the current steers the canoe, the present steers the future.

[lemonfryer]

who would dislike something as beautiful as this

[shaegse]

I saw then that my father's only fear was that his son would follow the same road. And that was the last time I ever held a gun. People always thought I grew up on a farm. And I guess, in a way, I did. But I lived a lifetime before that, in those six weeks on the road in the winter of 1931. When people ask me if Michael Sullivan was a good man, or if there was just no good in him at all, I always give the same answer. I just tell them... he was my father.

[PnutButter1986]

@shaegse wow.. beautiful, where did you get this from?

[CinderellaXXGirlXX]

@PnutButter1986 it's the quote from Road to Perdition movie - the one that the beautiful music above was composed for.. you should see it :)

[PnutButter1986]

@CinderellaXXGirlXX I'll take your advice Cinderella. And you take my advice and go to the ball x

[PnutButter1986]

@CinderellaXXGirlXX I see alot of parallels in the quote with my father, only it wasn't the gun, it was the bottle

[dallan1289]

the like/dislike bar makes a burning cig!

[666morten666]

You guys should look up the soundtrack from Meet Joe Black. That is an absolute masterpiece! Thomas Newman - Walkaway

[miketheman321]

This is the movie that introduced me to Thomas Newman. Words can't describe how much I love his music.

[peace1390]

nothing to say Just Amazing

[LilGreenGiant96]

The opening keys for this song are hauntingly beautiful, just like the movie.

[vinninemma]

you don't know up without been a down...

[fuad87]

mendes and newman make a great combination!

[fuad87]

mendes and newman make a great combination!

[AwesomelyAwsome]

Amazing song, but what's with all the lame cg-art?

[meLule92]

ma come si fa a mettere non mi piace mi chiedo......

[Cinder90]

Yes, this song is very emotional. Makes you think about what you have, wich actually mean something for you and makes you feel good. I think it makes you think about what you've lost.

Beautiful and sad.

[fatizoo1000]

This man has to get an OSCAR SOON...goddammit..

[subway108]

This song just brings so many emotions.

[ty2]

GOD! I LOVE THOMAS NEWMAN!

He is the absolute best at writing expressive atmospheric music. Everything he writes is gorgeous.

[zendanger]

This is expressive culture at its very best. forget pop music which we forget about after a few plays. this is the music which will last forever

[che10guevara01]

this is art !!

[ROBBIN187]

what kind of piano does he use, anyone know??

[JakeMDavey]

@ROBBIN187

Sounds like Midi, so probably an electric piano with a midi sound set on it, sounds very bright so Probably Steinway and Sons samples. Basically the closest sound to this on an acoustic piano is a Steinway and Sons Grand. Maybe a very bright Bosendorfer if you can find one

[Cstigter95]

What film?nevermind xD

[Cstigter95]

What film?

[SlaytanicMegaforce]

This is like a door to my own self. Puts myself and the people around me in bigger perspective.

[TheMuffinxbear]

These are magnificent pictures man

[Erictheeviltwin]

Can Newman ever do wrong? so stunning...

[dalez94]

only just realised this song is used in the film 'road to perdition' what a perfect song to go with a perfect film

[Zenuen]

Man i love all of your pics is there any way you would put the names of them in the description?...Please?

[kirstylouise96]

makes me cry everytime

[richardfps123]

people really need to listen to these kind of music rather than some stereyotypic japanese vurtial pop star peice of shit.

[TheMajikah]

50 fools disliked this masterpiece.

[meLule92]

beautiful........

[XcakebatterX]

this song makes me cry its so beautiful...

[305991523]

What a movie......What a score!!!! I wonder if Thomas Newman has even reached his peak yet? if not, I can't wait for his next work.

[JMUHockeyGirl]

The picture with the the blue tree is my FAVORITE IMAGE. The ROCK on which it sits looks like the mineral Lazurite.

[EuanMarissa]

when you feel all hope is lost and your are on your way down a dark path just listen to this song and you will be lead you back into the light and show you that you can do anything if you set your mind to it.

[28adrianpeterson]

49 dislike is just tooooo mucccccch!!!!

[Talkitivedevil81]

Even when I found out the man I loved cheated on me, and my heart is broken, this song gave me a reason to genuinely smile. :)

[ForbesFortune]

I absolutely love this song, I listen to it daily.

[NassikkaPanda]

I just love this.. ;3; It's sad and still beautiful.. <3

[y8sc]

@AnnJustAnn16 If you saw the movie you would understand the title. I dont want to spoil i the movie for you. It is worth seeing. The music is just a bonus.

[y8sc]

@AnnJustAnn16 If you saw the movie you would understand the title. It's a great movie. Worth seeing. The music is just an added bonus.

[grbtza]

@AnnJustAnn16 isn´t that the name of the movie? "road to perdition"? I don´t know if this song is on the movie´s soundtrack, but I know Thomas Newman did a lo of soundtracks.

[08austih]

this tune makes me cry :'( it's so beautiful.

[kennyribi]

wtf?

[silentbullet1]

only one word to say, EPIC! :)

[MrReavi]

This is a beautiful song. But everyone is... so.. vague...

[Chindo89]

The people who dislike this track have absolutely no reason to listen to it in the first place, it's not exactly something you stumble upon by accident and decide you don't like. Thomas Newman is an excellent composer, as is his cousin Randy.

[musicsoothesusall]

@Chindo89 ,

So was Alfred Newman, Thomas's father...(smiles)

[ForbesFortune]

@musicsoothesusall I don't know if you were being sarcastic or what, but yes Thomas is Alfred's son.

[musicsoothesusall]

To ForbesFortune ,

NO, I wasn't being sarcastic at all....Just mentioning the connection within this incredibly talented family, who create such awesome and inspiring music for us and for future generations....(smiles)

[150VJonny]

This song always brings back the memories of my fallen or injured Marine and sailor buddies who never came home or were disfigured from Afghanistan. Rest in peace brothers, I'll never forget you and I'll live the best life I can, its the least I could do for you guys. I miss and love the hell out of you guys.

HM3 (FMF) Vawter

[gavinsolar]

@150VJonny Wow, To be honest they are true heroes and deserve to be remembered, I will keep them in my prayers, Dave from Ireland,

[musicsoothesusall]

To @150VJonny,

What an awesome tribute to your fallen and injured brothers in war....God bless you and all of them !!!

[Fatalerror300]

@150VJonny Yeah, God bless the true marines and God fearing soldiers. And may he have mercy on the murderers.

[Yo4801]

@150VJonny I just want to say that our country will never be able to pay you back for the hardships you've endured but I think you should know that there are many people who are fighting for you guys to come home and we appreciate the sacrifices you have made. Words will never be able to express my appreciation for people with courage and bravery like you but it's my duty to make sure that your sacrifice is noted and appreciated and that when you guys do come home that your welcome with openarms

[likewowmanhey]

@150VJonny I am truely sorry for the loss of your buddies and I am especially sorry that you had to lose them that way in general. Peace to you..

[htmiller9]

@150VJonny I want to thank you for have putting your life on the line to protect the liberties and freedoms that I, and many other Americans, so often take for granted. Soldiers like you and your fallen brethren are true Patriots and I can't thank you enough for having to endure the hell that is war. God bless you and I hope you have a great life.

[gongboy83]

@150VJonny Thank you!

[scottymac8900]

47 people don't know what beauty is :)

[tkmariner]

nicely matched pictures to this theme.. 

[MOr5i]

@Lozza10100101 so you should hear road to Chicago in the same movie .

[doublebassmaster]

Speechless.............just amazing. Plain and simple :)

who needs dubstep?
