Washed Out - Olivia

[brycerichman]

I only spent three years in the 80s but those were the best three years of my life, days spent laughing crying, letting my mind wander, chillin, thanks washed out for the nostalgia

[beBOLD22]

Dear Washed Out, Thank you for dedicating this song to me. The beauty of this melody is the ultimate, best compliment anyone can say without words. I can not love you anymore than this extreme extent...

[ElectroBeat01]

Amazing :)

[triciapowers]

Love this remix by Washed Out and its sample from Alphaville's "Big In Japan"... but I really love the syncopation of the '80s video clips to the music — what a GREAT idea! Did you find this and just post it or did you edit all this content yourself? If you did create this remix, bravo! I think you have a natural talent for video editing — please do some more! :)

[dyrenh]

@triciapowers did you mean syncopation or just synchronization?

[AANDREWTHOMPSONN]

@triciapowers hey dude, ernest actually sampeld "Costas - Lost In The Night" :)

[panaceaartist]

looks like cannonball run on coke

[beelzebozos]

1.04 side boob

[LavenderDarwin]

The video totally doesn't match the music. I'm visualizing a light cycle entering an illuminated city at night, not corny 80's fitness video footage.

[arwurth]

@LavenderDarwin both of those visuals are so good!

[TheMegaphone77]

reminds me of boards of canada

[KyUHLz]

@TheMegaphone77 if you like boards of canada and washed out check out Com Truise, basically a mixture of both.

[TheMegaphone77]

@KyUHLz thanks ill definitely check that out

[RoosterLimited]

@KyUHLz sick shout, just checking them out now, cheers for that

[KyUHLz]

@RoosterLimited Look through my favorites if you like that, you might find some other shit.

[mysticrelics]

@visionquest711

hey, I was wondering if you could post the lyrics of this track, please? Been lookin' for the lyrics on the net n wasn't able to locate any. Many thanks. Amazing song btw :)

[Somaticae]

When you sample a track like that ( Costas Charitodiplomenos - Lost In The Night ) at least you should call it a remix, not an original track. It's shameful.

[sweetXroll]

haha just noticed dude be bumpin some yay @ 1:25

[MrTasfoolia]

@Rolandesch Saying: " hey faggot" is so unoriginal :(

[JohnCrawford420]

alphaville big in japan

[wawallace1]

@JohnCrawford420 i thought the same thing

[moppchilly]

watch?v=9Vykao6qt80

[deekay629]

[silvashiva]

uauauauuauau!!!!

[lilsadi80]

Genius

[shibbykid27]

kindda bummed they didnt play this live....still my favorite song

[CrispyLightVybez]

this mans talent for sampling is fucking godly.

[SirTomCruiseISH]

@CrispyLightVybez i have to say im rather gone at the moment

[freezoneminder]

from which movie is the scene where a couple sniffs coke? (great scene..)

[freezoneminder]

listen to this too: lost in the night of Costas Charitodiplomenos (greek) washed out was influenced by Costas and Costas by alphaville (big in japan). ALL three are great!

[graphtechgr]

Costas Charitodiplomenos released this song @ 1983 and big in japan 1984 ;)

[androukena]

@graphtechgr are you sure? it's not quite obvious who was influenced by whom..Costas had said in an interview that was influenced by Alphaville. lost in the night (maxi 12'') was released in 1984 for sure.(i have it ;) i don't know if he had written it in 1983..

[graphtechgr]

@androukena maybe your right im not quite sure.. searching for some info's i found out that he released many versions of this song back @84

[phoranea]

interesting... I sort of imagined an 80s goth-y looking girl going on about her day and weekend night, in southern California... sort of imagined her dancing at an 80s goth/synth/new romantic sort of club... :) that was the vision I got when I heard this song.

[nonsentirti]

lyrics anyone?

[TheNinjasatskool]

patrick morris



[hkchrism]

Who is the girl in the exercise portion of the video?

[jotenko]

How can THIS BE SO GOOD?

[genebyegene]

this song always makes me want to listen to it while playing GTA: Vice City... cruising around in some car blasting this, good times ;)

[blanchiebow]

where can i get this song??!

[psychedelicccc]

Can't get enough

[CAFLORES03]

1:26 damn, sh*t just got real haha

[gfata111]

keep making your videos please! swag

[Delabellefive]

If anyone got the lyrics... I am ready.

[mishalo]

italo disco!!!

[urbanloops]

Can you tell me what movie the cocaine scene is from? I swear I have seen that movie and I seem to recall that she double crosses that guy somehow. Thanks.

[tojiroh]

Now this is something that works so much better than the "Belong" videoclip. The main difference is it uses real 80's footage (with taste) instead of trying to reenact a crappy commercial/fitness tape. Ernie's tunes could benefit much from dedicated fanwork like yours... Thanks! (as much for the CGI Tron-like stuff as for the boob shots as well ;-D)

[urbanloops]

This might be my new favorite song. I love the imagery used in the video. I wish the song were longer. Is there a remix that doesn't kill the overall feel of the song?

[nickoloukos]

Lost in the Night RipOff?

[CanasNG]

great video or greatest video

[Atirpt]

call on me lol. nice song

[Shlas]

Does anyone knows which footages have been used ?

@0:05

@1:25

@2:01

Thx

[LexyAAA]

i was born in the 90's but id still say the 80's has the best jams!

[Tidsfordriv87]

This look a lot like the videos Dirty1200/Neon Workout does. Hm..

[420dopethrone]

fuck you 4 bastards that disliked this

[Modernaire91]

The music is "Lost In The Night" by Costas Charitodiplomenos (and no, he didn't rip it off from Alphaville.. he just used the same bassline sound and programmed it on the same rhythm.)

[downwiththevatican]

GOING TO GO SEE THEM LIVE TONIGHT @ CROWBAR YBOR CITY!!!!!!!!!!BOING!

[vintagekeyboards]

how can I get a copy of this tape? please tell me it's still available? Does anyone else know of any Washed Out releases that are not on "Life of Leisure" EP or tracks on iTunes. I have all of his stuff available on iTunes, but am always looking for more releases from him. GREAT music.

[yenbadcito]

@vintagekeyboards try discogs. i got my copy on ebay. they're always a copy floating around :) not mine though.

[shibbykid27]

What are the lyrics to this song?

[kosmosik]

[kostykrump]

@forquenta sure you did.

[JonneyeTV]

[Rednospunk]

This song superbly uses a sample from the song "Lost in the Night". That's how it's done.

[chagal1978]

michel cretu goes chillwave

[lemmehollaatya]

thats a hell of a sideboob @ 1:04

[hessian2430]

Hey there to whoever posted this video - (is it you Aurora ? ;)

I have seen your video work around before..... I live in BK as well..... Anyway, just curious what movie you used for the video. I really want to watch it ;) If you don't want to post the name of it for whatever reason, message it to me ! I would be very grateful ;) Thanks for posting ! - johanna

[carlescongost]

Nor Alphaville, neither P. Lion.

It`s just a sample of the song "Lost In The Night" by Costa Charitodiplomenos taken from an old cassette tape.



[durion6]

The basslines,Pads and the main melody are taken from "Costas Charitodiplomenos-lost in the night"

[soldat182]

the intro sounds kinda like this: /watch?v=CwHPMqG-J_c

[tripplethrendo]

Yay I found it.

[tripplethrendo]

Anyone know where I can find a high quality version of this? It's pretty freakin rare.

[portisalpha]

I HAVE to have this song...does anyone know where i can buy it?

[YvesIsaki]

@visionquest711 well okay but i can't respect you for choosing those obvious clips from those two people

[vasgog]

Costas "Lost in the night" is in the backend!!

[oliviataylorrr]

lol this is my name O_O

[enyafreak2007]

Is the High Times cassette tape available to buy at a music store?

[enyafreak2007]

Is this the original music video for this song or did someone make this?

[soldat182]

/watch?v=YXEX0AkIKsk heres the original 

[o0SuperScratch0o]

@soldat182

thanks! that's awesome!

[Comlover2u]

why's my name in a aerobics songg? D:

[harnaskalisz]

What this is aerobics scene?

[mysticsack]

i just noticed how much this voice sounds like neon indians its not another thing like vega he has going on is it?

[4thletta]

I read the Bio on this guy and i was fully expecting him to be from somewhere in Europe(England/Germany).But hes from Georiga and when i read that i thought it was the small country in europe called Georiga hes from the U.S. His sound reminds me of 80s Nu Wave pop music and i FREAKIN LOVE IT!!!!!

[elsdaflash]

1:05 = sideboob

[mtbx]

what the hell kind of video did i just watch

[SageBD]

@mtbx

[TuYzQuarta]

Here is the background music: watch?v=YXEX0AkIKsk

Costas Charitodiplomenos - Lost In The Night

[BeyondGamer01]

damn, this song just replaced Feel it All Around as my top song from Washed out. Its sounds so nostalgia.

[123dodus]

@BeyondGamer01

o jee... I agree

[treehuggerthe1st]

@BeyondGamer01 YOU DID NOT JUST SAY THAT. Washed Out will forever be my favorite.

[aneinaiakeini]

Check this 1983's track: Lost in the night - Costas

[pishposhthis]

I love Washed Out, and this video is hypnotically beautiful. The ending is pretty tight. But I feel like the 80's exercise video look is a little overdone...What do you guys think?Repurposing old video is hard to do without being cliche, but I think the Health mv "heaven" does it pretty well.

[mawion91]

Lyrics ?

[eybaebae]

weareallstarstuff. tumblr. com

[khalifaboy]

Love this track! So cool and mysterious, this videos got a really retro feel. Well done dude, keep it up!

[kyradius]

Washed Out bringing 80's back so masterfully... t h a n k y o u !!!

[gackester]

Que forma tan superficial de tratar la canción...

[visionquest711]

@gackester well, that is your opinion. The song is an homage to italo disco and pop music of the early 80s. These are the images that came to mind when I heard the song.

[ihavenoideaofaname]

@visionquest711 You worded that well you damn hipster

[Galoag2012]

@gackester no se de que hablas, pero tu opinion es algo chistosa. Este video muestra que la musica de los 80s esta de vuelta pero en una forma mas avanzada y quizas mejorada.

saludos.

[noisz86]

amazing

anybody has the lyrics?

[egdeltur666]

i'm starting to think that this guy has sort of 80's work-out video fetish.

[woodstock061]

you should see the "eric prydz- call on me" music video, it's twice as bad

[Gmancrap]

Every chillwave hipster does. That's the point, It's supposed to be ironic.

[sipeirson]

@egdeltur666 - Who doesn't :P

[TANSD]

The brand on the can at :48 is "Urina"...

[egdeltur666]

fan.... TASTIC!

couldn't have done the 80's better if they were Neon Indian!

[petjes1971]

Sounds like the 80's to me! A little bit of Carly Simon-Why mixed with

Alphaville-big in japan and

P. Lion - Happy children

and something else...don't no what

great one !

[visionquest711]

@petjes1971 wow, impressive. you have some real keen ears my friend. cheers!

[Gmancrap]

Name some more! Make a list man!

[Rednospunk]

@petjes1971 : The vocal melody sounds like the chorus from "Too Shy" by the band "Kajagoogoo".

[jiudae]

@petjes1971 its from a greek disco song from the 80s  artist: costas charitodiplomenos song title: lost in the night

[Mr1idea]

@petjes1971 yoou mean that someone else - modern talking

[petjes1971]

@Mr1idea witch number?.....oh wait they all sound the same:-)

[ABUDHABICOMBATCLUBOA]

@petjes1971 some crystal castles too no?

[lebesis7]

@petjes1971 search for costas charitodiplomenos-lost in the night,this is it

[nemesis478]

@petjes1971 and Ivan- Fotonovela

[owakie]

@petjes1971 and I hear sometimes 'too shy' by Kajagoogoo (too shy shy....)

[StratosPheraTube]

@petjes1971 Add Costas Charitodiplomenos - Lost In The Night (mainly from this one).

[SimmonsDrums]

@StratosPheraTube Yes, of course!

[DutchHouseMusic1]

Nice one !!!!

Great stuff !

[zehrinteressant]

I can't tell you how much I like this. Did you make this yourself? Is it all archive footage? The animated sequences are awesome as well, did you make these?

[khole71]

I like Olivia - she was a child of the eighties.
