  • I also like how the mobile users can still post comments on it tho, lol

  • This video was removed for copyright...fucking great

  • What the hell? Suddenly its saying its not available in my country

  • lol @ those who look down at gamers but they're here using a computer like as if thats something cool, sitting on their ass typing here on youtube, probably camping facebook all day playing mafia wars and farmville because they suck at everything else, sending tweets, or lookng at porn or sending sparkly images on myspace but yea gamers are are so below them - lol these noobs fail to realize that gamers paved their way to use the internet aka their life

  • Thumbs up if the Gears of War 3 advert made you search for this song?!

    Yes it's pathetic that I never knew this group before some advert, shame on me *slaps self*

  • im so happy I stumbled upon this!!

  • i want this song to continue and never stop.

  • I only knew of this song beforehand coz my mum is a mazzy star/hope sandoval fan. I love how some people are saying 'oh you only only heard this song coz of a game trailer' hahahaha who gives a fuck, do you think mazzy star is yours or something go suck a dick.

  • Never played GOW... Does that mean I'm not allowed to enjoy this song because I saw it from a commercial for the game? If Porcupine Tree were to be played behind a game would I be as annoyed as the rest of you fascists. No I would appreciate my favourite music reaching a wider audience. I'm sure the artist feels that way.

  • Comment removed

  • I had forgotten about this song as well, until I saw the commercial. She has such a great voice

  • Dedicated to Marcus & Dom putting the stomp on the locust thanks for making the last years worth it for me

  • Gears of War 3 rules!

  • freakin beautiful, what happened to all are great artists?

  • im here cause i heard the song on the commercial for the video game and iloved it :) shouts to her and that game

  • This is a beautiful song! Why are people upset that it was opened to the public?

  • Nothing better than a bunch of entitled hipster fucks getting defensive over a song being used in an advertisement, effectively introducing more people to good music. Honestly, go smoke your joint in the woods and cry about it some more.

  • @GluStikz lmao! fuck hipsters and their stupid bikes!

  • What the fuck is gears of war? I don't play video games, I listen to music.

  • @Rooblishus No one cares, you can do both pretentious idiot.

  • @Rooblishus A game

  • @ MammalianGenome You're the cunt.

  • @sc4r3cr0w006 Hardly. Like someone mentioned, games RUIN songs like this. So fuck you :)

  • poor marissa

  • Always liked this band.

  • wow, this song has been driving me crazy for many years but finally found it

  • Fuck GOW3. Poisoning this song with an ad for a shit game. It's Black Ops 115 again...

  • @left4trance

    Yes, I'm sure the artist is just furious that GOW3 introduced their music to a brand new audience almost a decade later.

  • @left4trance Think about this though. This song was released in 1994. Now, look at how many films it has been used in since that time. And now, take in to account how much music itself has influenced video gaming? This artist, and the track itself being chosen for the Gears of War 3 TV spot is just another way for David Roback, Kendra Smith and Hope Sandoval's music to reach a new generation of people. It's all down to current demographics. I for one, have heard this tune well before GOW existed

  • @M0t0ko I hadn't before the ad, and admittedly I like that the song is being targetted toward a new audience, but it would have been better fitting into a sad game, rather than a game about a bunch of gorilla men killing and raping shit. It's like Elena Siegman does not fit into Black Ops (mainly given the incorrect timeline for the music, even though no part of the game followed the right events on the right time anyway).

  • @left4trance - so which of the people from Gears are 'gorilla men killing and raping shit?',

    I think you're confused about the nature of the portrayed conflict and the people in it - maybe you should find out what the fuck you're talking about before opening your mouth.

    Marcus is the man!

  • haha im here due to gears of war xP but i came cuz the song sounded amazing and it is. :3.

  • Gears 3 baby going to be siiick! !!!!!!

  • seriously, why anyone would dislike? big WTF to these 115 dislikes.

  • thumbs up if you liked this song before gears of war

  • THIS SONG IS FUCKEN AWSOME!!!!!

  • doesn't really matter how you found this song, it's beautiful, and deserves to be listened to. Just one person's opinion. Peace to all.

  • OMG. I always feel bad when I find good music because of game/movie trailers instead of finding it beforehand.

  • watch?v=4N3N1MlvVc4 - Mad World - Gears 1

    watch?v=Pfi1UQ_PKQI - How It Ends - Gears 2

    watch?v=SiO_7LhPZFM - Into Dust - Gears 3

    Mad World is bomb.

  • @TheGreatreb dont forget about Ashes to Ashes which was Heron Blue by Sun Kil Moon

  • discovered this song because of gears 3 and couldnt be happier. i love music like this! gears always has the best commercials too.

  • proof that video games popularize music? i think so

  • @th3sc4r3cr0w006 more like they ruin music cuz now every fucktard come and acts stupid like how cod ruined avenged sevenfold

  • @lazyhaloman117 cod didn't have to ruin avenge sevenfold...they already suck lol. Also I'm pretty sure the age demographic that plays cod is familiar with avenge sevenfold

  • @YeahYourRight no idea what the fuck your saying and i dont wana know asshole

  • I came here cause of gears3 :-)

  • marcus fenix brought me here :D

  • @putaface101 go die fucking lesbian dyke.

  • @AfroSlayer nigger

  • I wonder how many views there were before this was the song for Gears....

  • What's Gears Of War (cough cough cough)

  • Gears 3 brought me here

  • gears from the begining brothers to the end

  • Nothing special. Good for getting asleep, but has no repetitive listening value.

  • DELTA SQUAD <3 <3 <3

  • I'm here coz of the oc

  • Beautiful.

  • this song is amazing

  • Wow... The thunder from this storm makes listening to this that much better XD

  • @anotherblueskittle

    Water falling and thunder roaring, how can people call this "bad weather"?

  • @SturmKorps You got me there, people be crazy saying otherwise

  • GOW3

  • It's so stupid that your claiming to feel 'sympathy' for us 'kiddies' only just hearing a song because of a video game advert. Well if like us you enjoy the song then surely you should just be happy that people are actually listening to it?! And to say you 'feel sorry' for the crap we listen to now is stupid, there is so much amazing music around and you can like more than one genre. This is the 21st century, join us, you neve know, you may like it.

  • @jayxo100 they're hipsters, they just have sand in their vaginas because people a couple of years younger than them happened to find something they like. its envy in some form, in another form its plain fucking stupidity.

    tl;dr: hiptsers are useless fucks and noone likes them

  • @MammalianGenome your a little to old to be acting and speaking that way to the youth. cunts? really. some of these cunts are too young to know what that means. cunts? chicks play gears or war as well. like myself. Im 22. So maybe middle aged men shouldn't belong on websites for youth and young adults.

  • They put the best songs in these video game commercials...

  • Apparently mazzy star was inspired playing g.o.w and wrote this song

  • @riiajapi lol shes hardcore! i can picture her playing xbox

  • This is ridiculous. So what if it was in a frickin' game commercial? What if, at some point in someone's life early on, they first heard this song and became a fan but over time, the song was pushed out of the main memory bank. Than, one day, they watch tv and rediscover it. If it weren't for that commercial, it could've been lost to them.

    Also, you don't own the song, so you have no right telling people they shouldn't listen to this, so quit bitching.

  • so glad i have heard this <3 amazing.

  • Im here because a spotted a good song. In the Gow3 Trailer. So what. You mad bro?

  • @MammalianGenome Damn, you actually give a fuck? Anyone above 30 who gets on like this shouldnt have been born in the first place.

  • @OnTopHD are you stupid or something?

  • @TriippyHiippy Im obviously not retarded, did you read their comment? I dont mean anyone above 30 should die, i mean people who get on like MammalianGenome.

  • What album is this from?

  • if you came to this song from gears of war that means you have "good music" taste cuz you like this song

  • Hope Sandoval has such an angelic voice.

  • Comment removed

  • @alessonincrime if i didn't have good music taste, i wouldn't spend 15 minutes searching youtube and google to find this song would i?

  • BROTHERS TO THE END.

  • I, for one, am absolutely excited that such a beautiful song would be put in league with such a reknowned title as Gears of War. I've known this song since 1999 and was always dissapointed when no one else I knew had ever even heard of this song. I'm glad there's a steady stream of people now who have heard this song recently and are now fans. Music is something that should be shared with world. It is the one language every human being can understand and something we all can share together...

  • i'm here coz of GOW3 ... discoverd a freaking great song ... happy about it and i can live with it :) peace all

  • when I listen to this song, I hear a Doors song in the back of my mind, this is the end. I weird, but they are both works of art

  • GOW 3 IN 6 DAYS!! RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE!!

  • @WelshGangsta1 imma own ur ass!!! lol jk can' wait!

  • @putaface101 LoL :D just got my email from game saying its been despatched.....the game website is a little screwed up these days.

  • YOU GUYS READY FOR GOW3!?

    >:O

  • @FrankzTerz hell yeah i am

  • beautiful song...

  • Never heard of this song or artist before the advert - so what? I found out what it was and now have it saved to my faves - if you are so snotty that you have to comment that I am not a 'real' fan then you can go f@*k yourselves - pretentious twats

  • This is the song i was looking for, i searched up "sun kil moon blue heron" sounded almost the same except a guy sings the song

  • Brothers to the end.

  • @MammalianGenome Surely you would want young people to enjoy this regardless of how they come across it, It does not matter if they were introduced to this by their olders or by a game trailer, the fact of the matter is they come here to listen to this song and enjoy it, Now if I was you I would be happy that younger generations are enjoying this because it keeps the music alive and will naturally be passed along

  • GOW3 FK YA!

    

  • Great song.. Reminds me of a, "House," episode.

  • @TRIXSTER03 Cause they play this in an episode of House lol

  • @SeraphimValkyrin-I know that...I said this song REMINDS me of a House episode....I didn't say WHY does this remind me of a House Episode.

  • if musicians were as selfish as some of their listeners, there would be no music.

  • @MammalianGenome so I shouldn't be able to listen to this because I was born and raised in the 90s listening to Mazzy Star? sorry, I guess I'm being selfish.

  • well im under 30 and have always been a fan of mazzy star but seriously whats the big deal???/

  • SHUT UP AND ENJOY THE MUSIC!!!

  • i'm hear because of GOW3. that commercial opened me up to a new artist and i love her. such an amazing voice and such powerful lyrics.

  • Comment removed

  • hmm some people here are greedy listeners lol

  • Apperntly this song came out the year after i was born. Heard it in the gears of war 3 trailer (can't wait for the game 7 more days!) Immediatly got online, and i've been listening to every mazzy star song that i can find since! Absolutley beautiful lyrics, and the voice just melts into the purest echo that i've heard in a long time. I may be a new fan, but i'm here for life now.

  • I wasn't brought over by some damn game. I was brought over long ago due to being an actual Mazzy fan. Hope Sandoval is the sexiest girl I have ever seen and her voice is completely amazing. Long live the 90's!

  • Sad half these kiddies here were not around 18 years ago when this song came out. I feel bad that most people now a days only hear songs of our past from being integrated into video games. I am just glad it opens people up to stuff other than some of that hiphop rap crap out there now.

  • Comment removed

  • Instead of enjoying the song and congratulating each other on shared good taste let's all fight about something petty. Millions of other people saw the same commercial & had no interest in the song. Therefore, everyone here is @least a little cool.

  • .......i was brought over by gears of war.

  • I love that this song was written about and for the Gears of War trailer. It gives it more personality and meaning. :-)

  • @bradtwo sorry but this song was released in 1993 on mazzy stay's album so tonight that i may sleep.

  • Comment removed

  • not according to the stats: bit[dot]ly/patquz

  • @bradtwo according to the original cd it is plus wiki and the song and artist sites

  • I love this game and I just heard it in Gears of War 3 ad and I was sooo happy because I love those games <3

  • @Snowrose48 mehh.... song*

  • Hey, I'm totally ok with a major game using such a fantastic group as their song for the new release. Anything that gets more people to realize how amazing Hope is the better.

  • Hey since this will probably get a bunch of Gears players lol. Me and my buddy are looking for a five-man team for multiplayer on GOW3. We need three more players. My Gamertag: SYN SHADOWS A7X. Message me through youtube or via XBOX live, I'd love to talk to anyone interested in playing alongside us!

  • @BeenBuriedAlive why do you need a five man team if you don't mind me asking?

  • @waterkid12 its fun to get on and play with the same guys every time rather than matchmaking and getting tossed in with these guys you don't know and who play differently than what the last team did. We think its fun to get on and win rather than tossing your chances to the wind ya know? Hit me up on xbox live if your interested bro, wouldn't mind playing some gears 2 if your up for it some time in the next few days.

  • Gears of War 3 yaaaaa!!!!

  • yes found it!!! and yea gears of war brought me here love this song!!

    

  • I'm so ready to chainsaw some Locus..

  • @Smith7010 *locust

  • you know I guessed this was stevie nicks when I heard it suprisingly it isn't

  • Who came here cause of gears3

  • @KillerProductions117 DumbBitch.jpg

  • @KillerProductions117 i came here because of the song Dude!..... that i heared on the commercial for gears of war :I

  • @viper8red

    The way your saying it sounds like I should go bitch at my younger brother for liking Rush even though they came out almost decade before he was even born. If there were more people like you, certain artist's work would never get around.

  • Can't we all just the listen to the song. Damn I have never seen so much bitching and arguing on a video of a chill song. So what if a majority of people found out about this song 15 years later?

    Last I checked the reason artists make music is for others to listen what message they have to say ( or to just make a buck).

  • I'm like so hardcore I knew this song before everybody ..jk gow sent me here.

  • GEARS OF WAR 3...

  • Sounds kinda like the music from red dead but in a female voice.

  • Screw video games! I am just happy to hear these notes.

  • Who gives a crap if i've never heard this until the Gears of War 3 trailer? I'm glad i heard it because it's a fantastic song, and in the preview for the game it was phenomenal. So, who CARES if someone didn't hear this song before it came out with some other kind of media contribution? I know i don't

  • Please please please let there be a cutscene in gears of war 3 with this song in it that would be so epic!

    A sad cutscene obviously :)

  • @BlindByakugan its in the trailer, you probably knew that but its pretty epic

  • lol Youtube has become a broken record when it comes to the comments on videos containing a piece of music....always the same shit, a bunch of butt-hurt hipsters whining about how their favourite music is now known by all, and now they can't feel special anymore. Which has led to every person who posts feeling the need to source how/when they discovered said song in order to avoid judgment....it's getting pretty sad.

  • @WaLlYwEsT19 couldn't have said it better myself. Awesome comment.

  • @WaLlYwEsT19 haha it is

  • I have a PS3 so i have no interest in Gears of War 3. I just like the song.

  • GOW 3 brought me here. But I stayed for the beautiful song.

  • I forgot to add in my comment i posted @ 15 seconds ago..... I DO NOT PLAY GoW.

  • I have seen more than this particular YT account that have posted this song on the account. And not a single one besides this one has any fucktard comments about "unsophisticated listeners" as nickschmitt had coined it. I knew of this song way before the GoW commercial. And when I did see it on the GoW commercial, it reminded me how powerful the song truly is.And before any of you butt hurt kiddies get your panties in a wad, I am 42. Not a hipster by any stretch of the imagination.

  • @nickschmitt Shut the fuck up

  • @deuxtroyer you couldn't had said that more perfect cuz its true. I saw the trailer and took the time to look for this song cuz it truly is a great song.

  • house brought me here (also gears of war)

  • GOW 3 brought me here as well, so if you don't like it go kill yourselves

  • Some people have no idea how much music there is in the world. There are songs out there i will never get to hear but would probably like. Ive never heard this song on the radio or anywhere else untill the Gears trailer. I dont see why people who were fans of this song before the gears trailer have a problem with that. Congrats on hearing this song before us, now let us enjoy it the way you did and stop bitching.

  • @MrHeavyFKNMetal That's a statement! :)

  • @MrHeavyFKNMetal you could not of said it better ....shit i didnt hear of black angels till fable commercial....much respect on that comment.....i wish i can give it 20 thumbs up

  • @MrHeavyFKNMetal hi jony lol

  • igot here from gears of war 3 :D

  • wow

  • Gears Of War 3 brought me here :)

  • Thumbs up if you remember this song from the O.C when mirassa dies :(

  • Brothers to the.. screw it they all die

  • Thumbs up if you had heard this song before the Gears of War commercial.

  • Superb

  • Superb!

  • poopy?

  • @XTHEKEVINATORX poopy indeed

  • can we get this in 1080 please? sounds so much better... (wOOt for gow3)

  • @4wildman5 just to let u know 1080 is regarding how the resolution is.... not the sound quality.....

  • @Chiefsrule36 clearly is..!!

  • @Chiefsrule36 why does the one on gow3 trailor sound better?

  • @4wildman5 maybe because it has better sound quality

  • 114 people are about to turn to dust...

  • This is actually a cover of the song Into Dust by Ashtar Command. Their version lasts 9:38 or something, check it out!

  • @ewoudftw Thanks dude, would never have guessed! I like both of em, Hope's voice definitely brings something to it in this version though.

  • @DetentionSickness haha no prob:) I like both of them too, mazzy's version slightly more. Its like she took that long piece of music from Asthar and just made a more easy to listen single of the song. And I must say she did one hell of a job.

  • @ewoudftw Afraid not, Mazzy Star wrote this song. The version you refer to is the cover.

  • Reminds me of Spellbound by Siouxsie and the Banshees. Like it. Very haunting.

  • @spursla1 How does this sound even remotely like 'Spellbound' by the Banshees? Sorry, I just don't see the comparison.

  • @nickschmitt And I'm saying WHO GIVES A FUCK. So what if they don't listen to it for the YOU do. You don't think before the flood of GOW3 fans, there weren't other people that knew of this song and listened to it for different reasons. There will always be a "misunderstanding" between listeners of music. I really don't care about this song getting "tons of listeners" I don't even play the game, I saw the commercial, heard the song, looked it up, and liked it. Is that a crime sir?
