  • utter beauty, and brings back amazing memories of Glasto 2011 :) what a sunset song!

  • There is both happiness and melancholy in this song.... it's amazing. When I listen to it, I see myself running with other kids through the playground, looking to the sky and seeing the space shuttle launch from Cape Canaveral. Epic childhood. Epic.

  • @BARCACROSSESTHEALPS Happiness + Melancholy = nostalgia. You are so right :D

  • I wish all music was like this T3T

  • It's a sin to be this talented. 

  • just makes you happy

    

  • You're a moron, I'm a moron, he's a moron, she's a moron, they are morons, we're all morons. Everybody happy now?

  • I LIKE MUFFINS!!!!!!!!

  • Amazing, simply amazing. Better than alot of the auto tuned chart music these days.

  • this little song is just one giant orchestra

  • This is seriously one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard.

  • Love this song......

  • Hear this at work first and desperately tried to find out who this was.

    So utterly glad I found this precious piece of music!

  • i really love the song and it does ignite something in mine. but i cant really understand why people disagree with 60 people not liking this song. id be more surprised if it had 0 dislikes. everyone is different. additionally there are 1.1 million views, so 60 of those decided to rate and rate dislike. pretty good going.

  • The dislike bar is like a ninja, you know it's there but it's invisible

  • Statement: Look at the dislike bar. ''Can't see him.'' That's what I'm saying!

  • prisoners wives

  • 60 people couldn't listen their way out of a box.

  • @iaintnowasteman they couldnt, so what is your point? you are, like everyone else, writing a comment purely with getting "thumbs up" in mind.

  • i hate to sound cheesy, but 60 people were born with ears that do not register good music but register rap and pop.

  • What an amazing song. Conjures up so many memories of youthful bliss and ignorance. I know the 60 people who disliked it - I met them at a 2 unlimited gig where Aqua were supporting

  • Comment removed

  • Its barely a song more of a statement, wonderful

  • fantastic band

  • 60 dislikes yeah i would be pissed too if i was def poor them

  • Heard u guys on Jay Leno. Can't get this song out of my head. Truly a beautiful and original sound.

  • this song is perfection!

  • Wow

  • Truly these musicians are of a calibre seen far and few between. The type of transportive music that requires no collaboration with video. Its like watching a sunrise.

  • How can anyone slag this off its live!!!! Some peoples ears were obviously not connected to their ears when they were born

  • For the 60 people up there: They now have technology for you. Check out cochlear implants! Bringing sound back to the deaf :)

  • love how there is few here saying "Elbow is shit!" just for attention, majority are here simply for music, gives me hope..

  • That is what is so amazing about Elbow, they can sing just as good live. They are up for a Brit Award for best band, hope everyone votes for them before February 21st!

  • Love love love Elbow, think this is an amazing song and an amazing album, but it is definitely not live. It sounds exactly as it does on the album.

  • Manchester magic :) the words touch nerves

  • his voice is like my ears drinking honey

  • Did they film this in Dragons Den?

  • Lol the band name is ELBOW

  • This is music, not entertainment.

  • @hoppie503

    Music is entertainment.

  • I just adore him, I could happily listen to him every single day of my life <3

  • saw on hurricane... i was so excited! the best concert of festival!

  • Gods Guy Garvey looks old but so skilled and beautiful in voice

  • beautiful

  • Been a fan since your first record, and you guys never cease to amaze me. Thank you for the great music.

  • When I've had a crap day at work I light a few candles, open a bottle of wine and listen to Elbow..... never fails to chill me out

  • Incredible

    

  • Beautiful song. Excellent emotion in there performances

  • This song is in the new Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close movie trailer! I hope Elbow gets more popularity :)

    incredibles musicians!!!!

    congratulations

  • Great song, great band

  • Class wins all the time!

  • Sheer class I have to say. Hope you like your Christmas present Dad x

  • I tend to not like indie music (whatever that title means), and most yawn inducing pop and hipster stuff that I hear. It just doesn't move me. But these guys do. They got it. "I never perfected that simian stroll." Great stuff. 

  • this song needs so more popularity.

    its so beautifull

  • But it's not meant to be depressing!! It's a celebration of being young!

  • Sick of hearing this shit on the radio. Does their album come with antidepressants? Crap boring band

  • @Saints54672 if you dont like them then fuck off! They are amazing!!

  • @Saints54672 you know you don't have to listen to it. change the radio station or don't look them up on youtube. really not hard!

  • @Saints54672 Then piss off and tie some ribbons you racist bastard.

  • @Saints54672 Well your mother doesnt come with antidepressants too, but do you hear me complain?

  • @MaggotBrainBand if i wanted a lame comeback, i would have scraped it off your old girls saggy tits. stop rooting through last weeks posts and do something with your life, and your shit music

  • @Saints54672 ....if you're sick of hearing them, then what are you doing here?? Thick f--k alert !!!

  • looooooovvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeeee. I always want to repeat this song every time I listen to it. I love them!

  • great..............

  • straigh, honest, pure love formed into a song

  • WOW!

  • essa e a musica

  • who disliked this??? morons. no taste

    

  • Arrow Clasic Rock Noord used to play this when i was in car to work. Good times.

  • Beautiful. Makes me wanna savour every moment I have, make these days the Golden Days, not wish my life away. Thanks for writing this song. I'm gonna build a rocket and enjoy watching it fly, might even fly it to the moon or beyond. ;D xx

  • Came here on recommendation from a friend and I have to say that I'm really not a fan at all. Thumb me down all you like but the comments are a place for sharing opinions and this is my own. However I respect them as musicians and wish them all the best, it's just a little, "anthemic" for my tastes.

  • what model of Shure headphones are they using? SRH-840?

  • @satyaijt01 I was trying to determine this as well but the video changes focus so much it's ridiculous.

  • Weirdly, I heard about these guys through Adele. Very glad I did. This song creates the most vivid imagery in my mind and I absolutely love it.

  • Ah... this music is so peaceful. I love it.

  • 50 people hit the dislike button.

  • @fancyfest 50 people hitting the dislike button? Everyone is entitled to their opinion..... shame those 50 are wrong though haha

  • <3

  • I love acoustic music like this! =D

    You can clearly hear what sound is coming from which instrument.

  • Gaffa tape ! It rocks.

  • pretty sure a good 100,000 of the views on this are mine... it's just so good <3

  • Just the best!

  • God this is beautiful, such artistic expression.

  • beautiful!

  • I guess this is music where my kids will grow up with!

  • Just heard of these guys like a hour ago and fell in love with this song. I keep getting chills as I listen to this song.

  • very time i here this song i think of the riots.. weird.

  • 49 people clearly are Lippy Kids

  • @BeatleMania631 agreed :)

  • this song is so incredible, it gives me chills every time i listen to it 

  • 23246 views of 930.304 views are mine. they were played just for me. no one on earth can steal them. thats a good feeling

  • That's real music.

    They don't have to be young or good looking.

    No show, no glitter.

    Just music, great!

  • @slowglassofficial well... I think Guy Garvey is actually quite good lookin' (no... i'ma straight xD)

  • I never heard of this band until it took a stage at the Coachella Festival in California and I remember my first thought was, "Thank God! Talent just got here..." Got to see the guys again when they played the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival in San Francisco. What a pleasant discovery they have been. Sure wish our young musicians in the States were exposed to more acts like this than what they're being fed.

  • This is a very long song...I like it...

  • Building rockets in Tottenham - Sounds like a daft idea to me !!

  • Saw then in Berlin last night. Brilliant doesn´t even begin to cover it. Finally someone who can play music and who really can sing.

  • I think I have a new favourite band.

  • saw them in cologne on monday ... amazing concert!!

  • let us all strive to help our our youths build rockets

  • As good as it possibly gets...

  • Masterful music ... So beautiful at Werchter. And... we will be there next weekend in Vorst... :-)))

  • Does it really get any better than this? Seen them live twice now, beat band ever! Cheers, Y.

  • When he taped down the key I fell in love.

  • I was driving from London to Paris last thursday night and listening to Elbow first on BBC and playing at Manchester Cathedral. Fucking awesome.

  • increible

  • this song is fuckin amazing, how could you not like this song...and all i listen to is trap music....good song rite here real talk

  • When I saw them at Leeds, Guy said that they released this song on the day of the riots in tottenham. He said this song is about remembering your childhood and remembering when you had an innocent mind and were yet to be subjected the the reality and harshness of life and the world. The song was released on the day when people needed to remember that the most. I guess people still need to remember that now

  • @rectumdilbert05 actualy the average age of the rioters was about 20-30. the media just publacised the riots younger memmbers because they made the message more poinient. the riots were not the work of youths but mid to grown adults.

  • We need more bands like Elbow - this is beautiful! This is : Music!

  • 49 prople dont apreciate music for what it is!! 

  • this is real, proper, great music to proud that it comes from england, unlike a bunch of queer-looking lads running round a beach singing together (one direction)

  • I am so blown and this song is the greatest song I have ever heard in my life I wish it would play everytime you went underwater.:D

  • just build that g*d damn rocket allready boys!

  • Same here. Saw on Fallon. Cool tune.

  • random comment =D

  • Along with the M62 and Cherry Ghost one of the best things to come out of Manchester...  ;)

  • @dray1967 and Doves

  • If you think this is great check out elbow's 'Tower Crane Driver' with the BBC orchestra. brings me to tears every time.

  • @jumhed THIS.

    along with Some riot from the same show.

    jesus, these guys just can't do wrong

  • This makes me feel like im getting hugged

  • I've been listening to Elbow for years now. Advice: listen to "The Bones Of You" off the seldom seen kid album. I listen to this in my car at full bass. It envelopes you. Also "friend of ours" off the selfdom seen kid album and "Scattered Black and Whites" off the Asleep in the Back album. YOU'RE WELCOME.

  • Beautiful.//.

  • Heard it on Fallon as well. Had to hunt it down. The magic of poetry and music....

  • Love this music! Very creative!

  • Wow! Fantastic! Who filmed this? I feel like I was on the stage and in the song. What kind of camera was used? Who did it? Brilliant! The sound and the video are a unique and powerful signature!

  • yes heard it on jimmy fallen last nite i fel in love going out today to hunt down the cd

  • I am in awe...wow

  • Comment removed

  • quality

  • @clockworkaccordion The same thought occured to me . Something like "Walk across the rooftops" perhaps . There is definately Blue Nile type vocals / instrumental build to the song . Anyway both are fantastic .

  • should be xmas number 1, ill make a petition.

  • je les ai vu au mais square festival de 2011 ils était géants , c'était imprétionnant , ils étaient vraiment avec leurs public .

  • omg...this sounds like a christmas song...so beautiful!

  • I think I found my fav song for at least the next month....

  • beautiful. words cant describe this song

  • they only play in manchester

  • Why aren't all bands these days like this? :(. By the way naddy cat i understand completely how you feel about this song. It's frickin amazing

  • its without a doubt that this is the most beautiful song ive heard come out of the 21st century so far

  • i like how most of the usual retardation on youtube has put itself to a rest for most elbow videos.

    shows you what kind of crowd they attract. not a bad thing at all

  • I needed to cry, this helped me find my tears. I feel so alone.

  • @Naddycat don't worry, the internet is your personal psychiatrist too!

  • @Naddycat music is a good scape for the soul. Don´t feel alone, there are lots of interesting people out there. Just don´t be afraid.
