  • great song. found it by accident. was watching "tribute to christopher hitchens" and a soft instrumental version of this was used as the background music. was really beautiful.

  • am i the only person here because of gow

  • @guitarshredder162 I'm with you. Brothers till the end

  • @guitarshredder162 Nope, most of us are here because of Gears!

  • Hell yeah, DenCo represent!!!!

    

  • @berrypickers that was my mistake, I haven't seen the movie in so long I was going by memory. Thanks for the clarity though. I hate when movies have excellent music in the trailer but the song isn't actually featured. Maybe it's just me but the soundtrack is about half the reason I'll even consider watching something.

  • Forever its not so long...

  • I used to listen to devotchka till I took an arrow to the knee

  • @airman401 Oh my god. Really? I dont want to hate, so i wont cuss my lungs out. But get an original comment. This comment has gotten old and is in no way funny. Why not think, instead of copy and paste...yeah?

  • @TheAmazingKent Agreed, sick of those Skyrim comments, they flood Facebook as well!

  • @airman401 Airman401 used to make arrow to the knee jokes but then he took a shotgun to the face.

  • I could be wrong but I'm almost 99% positive this was in the movie "everything is illumintated" and devotchka's song " and the winner is" which as far as i can tell is the instrumental version of this was featured in Little Miss Sunshine along with Gears Of War 2. Regardless though, this song is an amazing piece of work and those of us who have found it are lucky.

  • @danaeshirek

    Sadly no it's not in the film " Everything is Illuminated" I bought the dvd but its not in it. I think it was used in the trailer for the film. Someone else on youtube used this song with images from the film, Hence my reason for buying it. You can imagine my confusion when it didn't feature in it

  • am a man and i cry when i hear this song,

  • gears of war

    

  • This is a damn good song, but I prefer their recent 100 Lovers album more.

  • Now 199...

  • this is song is now my obsession . <3

  • This video is only for the dreamers.......

  • I'm still listening this. Been like 3 years since the first listening.

  • @Zeroarcanus me too

  • Great band! would love to see you guys tour with Beirut & Ubyk. When is the new album?

  • this song was not written for a movie. it was written for my life. or at least thats how it seems....

  • Gears of war 2.

  • RIP Dom. You died a hero.

  • i think im gonna throw up

  • @BigBob1ify what u wanna medal for that

  • Excuse Me? Written for a move? I think not! I have been following this band for 10 years and this song was NOT written for a movie. They did have a song in the Alan Arkin flick a few years back, but even that song was NOT written for the movie. Jeez, I guess this is where bs gets started.

  • I know how it ends, god slowly takes everyone you love away and mockingly ask you to believe in him, put your fath in him and all your troubles will be healed. how do i recincile this with the knowledge that he's the one who is causing my pain? taking everything i hold dear and ripping them away, why destroy my faith in him this way and expecting me to just blindly trust and follow him to eternal life when he's made my life a living hell I doubt god even exisit, no God could be so cruel!

  • @coolecup quit being a pussy. Everyone has problems, everyone has issues, everyone's hurt. Life is what you make it and if you fall in to the trap you've laid for yourself you'll always end up with this pussy bullshit. Pain is part of life. Make it work.

    I don't know your story, but your beliefs have cornered you. I believe in God, but my conception of God's existence isn't there for me to blame things that happen.

  • @N28Freestyle Sorry to vent. So many of my loved ones seem to have passed away that i have no one left to share any thing with, It,s the pain of reaching for the phone when you have something funny to share and there is no one to call. I hope you have friends and family to support you, I pray your life is filled with campanionship because i miss the comfort of knowing some one has my back when life seems so hard especially at xmas

  • @coolecup Thats because God doesnt exist

  • Sad to see everyone think this was written for a movie...

    One of the best songs ever made

  • thank you Pandora! You are awesome!

  • mazzy star brought me here

  • wtf is little miss sunshine?

  • @EllboGrease27 a movie, this song was written for this movie

  • @TiagoNigga it wasnt written for the movie, the song was written in 2004, the writers just chose it for the movie

  • @Kalinoga1337 That's from Gandhi. It's not cool to put a quotation without citing the author.

  • Weight brought me here

  • somany street lights

  • Amazing! 

  • songs great VIDEO SUCKS SPACE BALLS

  • i love this music!!!!!!!!!io amo questa canzone da morire è supenda!!!!

  • Love this song! First discovered this band at a concert also featuring Dresden Dolls and Reverand Glass Eye. If you love this song give the rest of the "How It Ends" album a try. Many of the tracks have a similar feel and are just as beautiful, so don't limit yourself to just the one track made famous by a movie and video game trailer!

  • This is seriously the most beautiful song ever.

  • @horXhay nope i can name a dozen more

  • this sound.. it makes me peaceful.

  • This song takes me home!

  • Little Miss Sunshine. Gears of War.

  • @crazy360playa Same

  • la canción me gusta y me da lo mismo si la conocí por el DeVotchKa o por Gears of War 2 las dos cosas son geniales y siempre estarán en mi corazón,

  • got dizzy

    

  • Everything is Illuminated :)

  • So much hatred in the world...Most people lose their health to make money, then lose their money to restore their health..they live as if they will never die, and they die as if they have never lived...but never forget.. everybody will die some day. Think about your dead everyday and it will change the way you live.

  • @Kalinoga1337 I agree:

    live as if you were to die tomorrow.

    learn as if you were to live forever

  • @xGeorge95 If you were to learn as if you were to live forever you wouldn't work that hard cause you have forever... learn to progress yourself

  • @Kalinoga1337 /hatsoff

  • @Kalinoga1337 woooow lovely word's thank for that comment hope everyone was like that

  • @Kalinoga1337 Don't worry we all know How it Ends.

  • @Kalinoga1337 Love the quote but you should say who you got it from

  • @Kalinoga1337 "We are the Walking Dead"- Rick Grimes, from The Walking Dead

  • Little Miss Sunshine anybody?

  • thumbs up if you didnt come here cus of GOW but from Didier Berthods First Ascent video

  • This song is amazing but the first 20 seconds is the most annoying sound ever.

  • i love this song but is this the official video?

  • Simply EPIC ! _

  • My depression and lonelines brought me here. The whole world's turned its back on me no matter what I do or how nice I am no one gives a fuck about me. This isn't the same world I knew when I was a kid, it's full of heartless zombies. I'm sixteen It's 3:11am in australia right now and i'm up listening to this by myself like always... You already know how this
