In The Valley Of The Dying Sun "Behind the Song"

[sarcasticallysara]

"a SciFi Western"

I wonder if they watch Firefly.... :]

[vindication84]

@sarcasticallysara I was thinking the same thing! hahah =]

[sightsetnorth]

I like how this video is the same length as the music video.

[DJclockbreaker]

@sightsetnorth wow yeah, weird. haha

[freshraj]

Hopefully the song has some encouragement in it. And if it doesn't, it still rocks. Haha, great stuff.

[ELITAH7]

Oh, n peace of mind, that haven't lost mine, az you guyz thought BEAUTIFUL YET WEIRD TOO hehe n still hold onto the previous comment. just BEAUTIFULLY CRAZEE az understand iiiit, now. Picture tellz a thousand wordz well this iz an artwork too

[ELITAH7]

Glad you guyz explained n there waz someone whom mentioned on a clip of it re Jacob. AWESOME!!! COOOLLLLLLEDGE, BRO'S!!! <3 to YOU thru the one whom izzz LOVE, CHRIST JESUS!!! Tan from Oz=)

[todbog]

love it

[IrishBirdy1]

I got to hug Tim :3 He is awesome!

I told him that In The Valley of the Dying Sun was the first song I heard and I loved them ever since and he smiled and said he was glad I liked it. <3 <3 <3

[Quincy0047]

I love how they talk like they didn't make the song. They talk as if they started playing their instruments, and the song just kind of emerged, and they love how it turned out lol

[Finder77]

*this is

[Finder77]

I really love the song and these are a Christian band but it really disappointed me during this video how they didn't talk about how the main character's revelation has to do with his relationship for God and how it is true that God doesn't stop bad things from happening in life but He is there for you when they do so you can have someone to lean on. I mean, in the valley of the Dying 'SON' was how I interpreated and shining on becuase we have a peice of the 'son' (ie. Jesus) is very Biblical.

[hayden4139]

i lov how house of heroes explains every song....Y CANT OTHER BANDS DO THAT?!?! o yeah....THEYRE NOT STUDS hahaha

[kehewtechs]

I like the last part "God is not my enemy" wow...that is excellent...

[LeftyCenter]

My mom heard the song and thought the last line was "I'm moving to China"

(I'm living to shine on)

[mlnradio]

haha, so did my family

[hambaconbeef]

I heard this song, and this song alone, and then I bought the CD

[goofball723]

does hoh have a youtube page?

[BarbbWire]

i would love to know who they are talking abut with the " im thinking of you while holding my girl and wonder if she'll ever love again" ?

[NaaAdjoa]

I think all artists should do this...explain their songs. There are so many songs I want to know the meaning to, and I'm not gonna sit around all day to decipher a completely inaccurate and off base interpretation...although I do that alot :( Thanks guys!

[fatdru22]

@NaaAdjoa 

[jamesisaak777]

@NaaAdjoa not all artists are this precise and deep about their writing.

[gingerkid101689]

I can honestly say I had to watch this twice because the first time I was just staring at Tim hahahaha.

But I love this song. I love how it switches into different sounds all the time. It's awesome. And the video is amaaaaaazing.

[spacemonkeyzrock]

I love this song so much!!!!! They played it as the last song when I saw them last weekend and it was SOO amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GoddessofEggrolls]

I saw them live last night for the first time and they are so amazing. <3 And Tim and Colin are so pretty. *_* But this song is one of my faves. ^^

[wakeborednaked]

this song is sweet i had herd it last year and really liked it but didnt relize house of heroes sang it they have pretty much most of my favorete songs and it was alsom to see them play the other night

[WowieWhatALandslide]

For the longest time i thought the last lyrics of the song was "I'm living in China" he he he

It's close to "I'm living to shine on" ha ha

This song is epic!

I remember seeing them in concert when their first album came out and their still amazing! I think one of the biggest tests for a band is whether or not they can sing their songs live, and House of Heroes defiantly brings it!

(Next comment...)

[WowieWhatALandslide]

I think another test is if their music can stand on its own without the vocals, and I have yet to hear a song where to instrumental would not be amazing!

I wish they would come out with a instrumental version of "The End is Not The End"- it would be beyond amazing!

[Babymonigrl]

LMAO ! 'im living in china'

[WesMan282]

ive known these guys since i was like 7 when they recorded at my house, i feel so honored

[hailesj]

You didn't keep the original recordings did you? They would be verrry helpful for me if you did!!! XD

[NikkiFira]

I'm writing a sci-fi/drama story with a bit of a twist off this song... Of course, I started writing this story before i heard this song, but now I realize how much the two kinda have in common. Go HoH! I'm begging for 'The End is Not the End' for my B-Day.

[aquirethefire7]

I was thinking the song was kind of like what was in the Book of Revelation with Ezekiel when he had the prophecies told to him. At least, it soudns like it in the beginning. But it does kind of sound like it's about Jacob in Genesis and all that. I love this song so much and the vid. ^_^

[TissueShoe]

This song is awesome, I'm very glad I have that insight about what it means now.

[ashlyn1706]

attention Tim and AJ: i love you guys to death, but PLEASE shave!

[supersonic15999]

This song was the thing that has given my friends and I motivation to start a band. Awesome song!

[xXMayfuyuXx]

I know you left that comment long ago, supersonic15999. But I still wanted to wish you and your friends the best of luck

^_^

[stridder77]

they do have a music video...

[MinatoUzumak1]

this is like a western its cool

[FluffMyGarfield]

I've listened to this song almost 10 times in the past two days. I love this song!

[mikagamix]

this song is pretty badass. the sci-fi western bit is cool, and it definitely is a positive thing. realizing that god has the power to change people is pretty huge.

[JohnMark8403]

New album is fantastic. Tim looks like a pirate in this video...

[Binnyisawesome]

Go Jacob!

This song is awesome!

Love the meaning...

[ninaxpants]

the video for this would be SO cool!

[alive1sdead]

keep your eyes open.

[alive1sdead]

[cheddarchazzz]

i hope they make a music video

[proverbs1513]

THE SONG ROCKS!!! I absolutely LOVED it! I remember listening to it, how WEIRD it was, but how much i LOVED it! And the way you described how it was made and the story behind it totally made sense!!! =]

[sirpaul99]

One of the greatest songs I've ever heard it's GRANDIOSA! Huge! and I do not mean long.

[YoureFired2011]

I want the CD!!!

[graceinurface23]

This song is the most entertaining and beautiful song I have ever heard. Definately was refreshing to hear that sort of talent from a christian band.

Epic? So awesomely epic. AWESOME!

[Wilshire07]

I love the song, It is very epic and that's what I like about it

[ricanrolear]

the most crazy bizarre awesome bautiful song ive ever heard

[electroluminescence]

brilliant! this has definitely become one of my favourites of all the tantalizing tunes i've heard so far.

epic.

"a bunch of cowboys riding through space lassoing moons."

ohh, timmy skipper!

[luvaddictXO]

hahaha, i also enjoyed the space cowboys comment. :]

Tim Skipper, Colin Rigsby, AJ Babcock, and Jared Rigsby will always be 4 of the most amazing men ever.

:D

[seekingparadise]

sounds like quite an epic song. I can't wait to hear it!
