  • does anyone else realise that we're watching the video backwards and that we're actually the music video?

  • @MrSnapply Thinking the video as a window I see... 

  • @MrSnapply How are we the video?

  • @littlesometin because everything is moving backwards and was just an introduction to you

  • @MrSnapply That's a pretty vague interpretation of the video.

  • @MrSnapply I read this comment on acid and I completely understood. Now I have no idea what that means.

  • @J0hnXi0ng yes. A song requires lyrics. I call them.. "instrumentals." or "tracks." or "records."

  • @J0hnXi0ng just a melody?!?!?!?!?! this is fucking awesome!!!!

  • @J0hnXi0ng just a melody?!?!?!?!?! this is fucking awesome!!!!

  • Thank you NPR for the awesome recommend of The American Dollar!

  • American Dollar = every album is phenomenal...

  • What a wonderful song and video. :o)

  • yea shivers go up, tune inclined to think

  • shivers!!!

  • Amazing VIDEO

  • Usually people say "this is the song of my life." For this, this is more of "the music video of my life." :)

  • Comment removed

  • If the video would be life, it would mean that you can or should only look at what's here now. That's why it's moving sideways and not forwards, you can only see where you are but not where you are going.

  • American dollar has set the bar for the genre "ambient" .now it goes on top of my genre list in itunes with pop, indie, alternative etc.. =)=)

  • @slikazn got any post rock in that?

  • who could dislike this?!

  • I could've sworn this movie was just going around the tree the whole time. Did they change it?

  • @withered962 It took me a few views before I realized it's rewinding the destruction of some region by what appears the be the stereotypical view of global warming. Meh. Cool song though.

  • Do we not become like the antagonist when we trash them for having a contrary opinion?

  • Beautiful Spirit.

  • This song is terribly fantastic.

  • This is unbelievably relaxing.

  • Both song and video is fantastic. Nothing more to say :D

  • fantastic CG work. aaaawesome!

  • makes me sad (in a good way)

  • if you like this, Saycet, Melorman, The album leaf, Helios, Flica are a must listen.. they too produce similar emotion inducing sensations.. have a look ;), their videos are very artistry & produce idyllic vibrations, haha, the most real form of chillout music this melotronica artists..

  • reminds me of minecraft

  • wow, this is fucking great.

  • Why is this so incredible?

  • Beautiful.

  • Truly remarkable.

  • echoing in my brain.

  • This is soo beautiful! ;v;

  • that is so beautiful

  • i need a "I-LOVE-THAT" button! <3 <3

  • /watch?v=AYw7eJYadco

  • now just put rainy mood on and put the video full screen

  • Luke Pierson's SC2 documentary sent me here.

  • its like an electronic explosions in the sky

    

  • @laxr1337 So fucking true. I swear, Explosions in the Sky made so many moments in my life amazing, and now I hope this band does the same. So much beauty in their work.

  • Beautful video!

  • this is amazing

    if you like the american dollar

    gabriel williams - she has seven skins

  • This song needs some SEX !

  • @khaledlead Really?

  • i get to see them tonight, i'm excited as fuck

  • LISTEN UP ALL DOUCHEBAGS AND FAGGOTS WHO LISTEN TO THIS BAND AND CALL THEMSELVES MUSIC 'LOVERS' . DO YOU WONDER WHY THIS BAND AND OTHERS LIKE THEM HAVE .0000231% OF THE POPULATION INTERESTED ENOUGH IN THEIR MUSIC? YA, I THOUGHT YOU DIDN'T, THATS WHY YOU HAVE NO LIFE, AND LIKE TO COLLECT FIGURINES.

  • @MrTohuskey

    Um yes actually we do. While the populace is obsessing about J-Bieber and Lil Wayne, we dive into the music genres and as a result we find stuff that isn't that popular but is clear the musicians are recording music solely for the sake of the music, not the money. And we are proud of the fact that less than a percent (by your shitty calculations) is interested in them because it makes them more personal to us. Thanks but you'll have to try again some other time. Peace bitch.

  • @MrTohuskey Damn, I hate to keep talking to a fag like you but I just realized that you were bashing on REM... Wow... And you like "Rock You Like A Hurricane" and not REM... I hope you know there is something wrong with you... Just sayin'... Well regardless, go hump your 400 pound wife that you call a "hot girl" and then give realism a chance, bud. God I hate people like you but I'll refrain from totally tearing you apart this time around.

  • @AllThatAwakens This is toooo easy, put ur zit cream and your salvia pipe down for a minute and please try to understand the difference between 'popular' and popular music. I said that the POPULATION , you know, of the WORLD is dis-interested with this band. Just because Bieber is popular doesnt make his music good either, just look at his DISLIKES on his videos. Every one of them is disliked way more than liked. Oh and that 400 pounder that turned you down really made an impression.obviously

  • @MrTohuskey Oh I DO know the difference between the two. And shit, you sure got me man. Before you start bashing on psychedelics (another category you are completely oblivious to), I would just like to say that stereotyping won't get you far in a conversation. And the WORLD is definitely not disinterested in this band seeing how it is not well known. And besides even if the WORLD was disinterested in this band, does that make it a bad band? Hell no. Go crank up your dubstep, tool.

  • @MrTohuskey

    So, your point is that people shouldn't enjoy music unless it's popular? Although I don't agree at all, we're all entitled to our opinions aren't we...

  • Glad I found this, it's going on my playlist for a trip in the forest XD

  • Deserve to be the hymn of serenity !!!

  • pure perfection.

  • Brilliant song !

  • olan rogers' tweet brought me here. :)

  • orgasm without sex

  • Eargasm!

  • Its absolutely what the world is.

  • magic! *_*

  • Awesome in all respects... wonderfull creation...

  • I jizzed at 1:58

  • This song whips a cheetahs funky ass.

  • it's awesome

  • amazing!!!! no need for lyrics ... the scene speaks for itself :)

  • this is perfect music when you are walking in a summers day.

  • wonderful ♥ (:

  • BIG lift + good music = AWESOME FLYYY

  • this should have waaaay more views

  • reminds me of the band boards of canada

  • i had to watch it like 3 times before i realized that the whole video is in reverse chronology. anyway, this video is fucking mindblowing, as is the music.

  • To anybody reading this:

    Check out EVERYTHING that these guys have done; it is all as good as this.

  • It´s like their music make love to my ears!!

    Beatiful song with an amazing video!!

  • ahhh this video is amazing

  • If you like this music, I seriously recommend a band called Do Make Say Think for further appreciation of wonderful music.

  • Its one in the morning and it feels like i just slipped into a coma

  • omg.....i peed.

    this is insane.i want more.

  • Thumbs up this comment if this is one of your favorite mellow "chill" songs in your favorites.

  • I feel whole and empty at the same time listening to this,.Happy and sad, everywhere I want to be and where I don't want to be. It's truly a beautiful track the world needs to hear. It's a, "Slow the fuck down and take time to look at life."

  • @withered962 I feel the exact same way.

  • @withered962 I understand what you mean, this makes me think of high, beautiful mountains and of great skyscrapers of steal and glass at the same time. Two complete opposites but this song makes them match perfectly.

  • @withered962 are you a mind reader?

  • @withered962 wat your smoking brah?

  • @withered962 wat you smoking brah?

  • @bestonlineguide I don't smoke... I just understand the words behind the music that aren't there. You listen to space out whereas I listen to this music to try to understand what cannot be understood. Life becomes truer and makes a hell of a lot more sense that what you perceive it to be. It's not about making money, being famous or having it all. It's a lot simpler but I'll let you figure it out for yourself.

  • Freakin' amazing. <3

  • Que buenos son.

  • Don't worry, even if we can't see it, spring is here again.

  • waw waw waw... extraordinaire ce son ! from Swizerland !

  • Amazing video for an amazing song.

  • shut up, just listen to this wonderful song!

  • Great job! I liked it! :)

  • You idiots don't seem to get it, ohhhh oooo im a 'composer'. So is a monkey with a mallet and a trash can lid. Get real. This is childs play compared to creating a song, mating it with a human voiced melody, and tricking idiots like you into thinking its too disney.

  • @yourstupidyouknowtha Dude shut up. Do you really think this is "child's play"? Get over yourself. You'll never be able to compose something as gorgeous as this, let alone anything that sounds good.

  • @guitarfreak917 lol are you saying lyrical music is the most difficult to compose? Interesting considering a lot of Baroque, Classical, and Romantic music were orchestral and many didn't have voice parts and are obviously the milestones of musical history in terms of compositional brilliance. Is American Dollar on the same level as Bach or Brahms? No, and no one is claiming that, but we appreciate their creativity and value their music even if it borders on minimalism. Don't troll...

  • @yourstupidyouknowtha

    Poorly disguised troll is poorly disguised.

    You already trolled this vid like 10 comment pages back; time to move onto greener pastures -_^ b

  • @yourstupidyouknowtha lolol then gtfo.

  • @yourstupidyouknowtha LOL dude your bashing this song (real music) meanwhile, your obsessing over "Rock You Like A Hurricane". LMAO fuckin' faggot. You don't deserve to listen to good music anyway.

  • @AllThatAwakens HELLO DOUCHBAG, My son is currently LEARNING AN INSTRUMENT, and plays the video ROCK YOU LIKE A HURRICANE and plays along with it. If you would stop listening to coldplay and rem and start giving girls a chance, you might start liking LAY IT DOWN by RATT LMAO. till' then listen to some dream theatre or kamelot , then listen to this lame ass ambient elevator music and shoot yourself in the head.

  • @MrTohuskey

    Hey captain caps-lock calm down a bit.

    No need to get angry haha.

  • @MrTohuskey That's cool but frankly I DON'T GIVE A SHIT. On a side note, I enjoy Dream Theatre but I also enjoy this song. And there is nothing wrong with ambient music. The fact that you judge it so easily shows that you yourself need to take the bullet to the head, not me. And congratulations on having a kid, I'm sure he's happy to have a prick as a father, I know I would be. LMAO why don't YOU look up The Evpatoria Report and Godspeed You! Black Emperor to immerse yourself in quality music.

  • You are ....sigh. haha Gay

  • This is absolutly wonderful, both the video and music...wonderful!

  • Really wish I knew what keyboards/synths they use =/

  • @rocketsum : To a large extent it doesn't really matter - a good digital synth should be able to be programmed so that you can (more-or-less) recreate any sound with enough programming. That said, the piano sounds are very nice here - definitely some kind of digital piano.

  • I listen to this song when I'm editing/working. So good. It really inspires me

  • three letters........ WOW....

  • Clearly this is life in reverse.

    To me this is the most brilliant piece of music that will ever exist.

    The piano that enters at 3:10 overlapping the guitar is so well timed and fitting that gives you a feeling that's too otherwordly to describe.

  • amazing song and video

  • eww the flies but aww the song :)

  • Perfect song. Perfect video.

  • where can i find this video so that i can put it on my ipod?
