  • This song is incredibly I have been listening to this non stop for over 3 days ever since I watched the moon.I am so glad I did..mere words cannot explain the emotion behind this piece.

  • @TheMrStevage Incredible*

  • To @invisibleasiankid: So if your're just passing by, does it really matter?

  • Sponsour a flid: The flid foundation

  • Just watched it again, just as powerful. Still made me tear up. Beautiful. 

  • 4 dislikes...no point. I'm at peace

  • I'm going to learn how to play on piano just to play this soundtrack on it :D

    One of my favourite movies.

  • Somehow losing something you've never had is the most devastating feeling. When the veil of illusion is lifted, to realize everything you've ever believed was a lie - this song fits perfectly. This is the song that made me want to watch the movie.

  • @invisibleasiankid you can't lose anything because you can't own anything in this life.

    this is what @"sgzesk" comment accidentally suggested, at least to me.

    I really hate this life, you come rushing in don't knowing where the hell you came from.

    Soon, I'll be rushing out of this life not knowing where the hell am going to.

  • @SomeOne01123 Isn't that the wonderful part, though? No reason for being, eventually everything you've ever accomplished will be dust. All that matters is making the ride as great as possible while it lasts, for you and the ones around you.

    If life has no purpose, no goal, then it loses its limitations. It's whatever you want it to be.

  • this music touch you where nothing can

  • "I want to go home" - When he says that it just hurts to watch and you see the shot of him looking at the earth from the mining rover knowing that he's never actually been home and has never really experienced it but you want him to go there. So incredible

  • Excellent soundtrack from an excellent movie!

  • :'D

    

  • Затрагивает до глубины души.Заставляет задуматься...Великолепно!

  • Reminds me of Lost Tv Show OST ..GREAT STUFF !

  • The best, sad, and beautifull song ever...

  • 2:57

    Gerty's true feelings :'(

  • Comment removed

  • ''I want to go home''... there becomes the moon sonate a new perspective...

  • I had never even heard about this movie until I watched it on tv today. I was completely blown away

  • 2:11

    Боже мой

  • I thought I was going to watch a regular Si-Fi but by the end I was stunned to the core. How this film was not nominated for any category is beyond me!!

  • @hermando29 My theory as to why this movie isn't nominated, is maybe the story is not so far from the truth?! Just a thought : ) <--- Gerty

  • "Gerty, why did you help me before?

    With the password? Doesn't that go

    against your programming or something?

    Helping you is what I do."

  • i try to search for my memories....and yet, I have nothing. This theme tell's exactly my feelings.

  • i thought gerty was gonna be some like evil robot, but after everything he did i was almost as sad watching him get left behind.

    cant deny this movie took me to a whole nother level of sadness and loneliness, props to the crew and clint mansell for this masterpiece.

  • Gery is missing sam....

  • Nope... it WAS his, but he lost it when he realized he was a clone. To say they were never his is ain't right. Cos they are exact clones of Sam Bell, but I know what you mean. Could be seen both ways to be honest.

    Whatever. Perfect film if you ask me.

    Seen it about 12 times.

  • @justabloke1

    Oh God... An exact clone is still a copy my friend, which means everything he thinks he experienced, he didn't. He never met his wife, he never conceived his daughter, because he didn't exist when those things happened... Clones already exist in this world, they're called identical twins, and they are not the same people.

  • Thank you very much for uploading this. On my opinion this is one of the best movies in the last years. This track is my alltime favourite piece of music. I even love it more than OST "The Road". Great!! Greetings from Germany

  • @buttkuss26 "The Road" is a beautiful peace of work... I myself would have a tough time deciding between the two. Both are outstanding!

  • @directorman0471 ;-) yes they are

  • 2:11

    Oh my God :'(

  • What a haunting song, to fit such a haunting movie. Clint Mansell is nothing short of a God.

  • That being said, FRIGGIN WATCH THIS MASTERPIECE. I'm ashamed of the Academy that this movie didn't recieve ONE nomination.

  • Usually those "sad" scenes in other movies don't really move me, I'd be like "aww that's kinda sad, but whatever, let's move on." This movie was the exception. The scene where (SPOILER!!!!): Sam's in the rover crying reduced me to a mouse. This movie is the saddest movie I ever saw. Really chisels into your deepest emotions and loves and really makes you reconsider and appreciate everything so much more.

  • @DehOtherGuy

    "I want to go home!" The simple idea of his situation is heart-wrenching...

    Also when GERTY does his :( face, I always get really sad too!

  • @AlexB1001 yeah...i couldnt help but replay that line in my head when i was stuck in jail for 180 days for fighting...

  • PLEXUS USPOMENA

  • At 3:32 it's blowing my mind

  • At 3:32 it's blowing my mindly

  • Gerty is hands down the best robot from any sci-fi. Such a beautiful movie piece of music and movie

  • @imagination43 Then you haven't watched enough sci-fi

  • @becausehorse hahahaha...please.. moron

  • I love this film and soundtrack. I love all the soundtracks, they're so epic. They make me think vigorously about anything and everything.

  • FANTASTICA, in questi giorni me la sto spassando cercando tutti gli arpeggi (con la chitarra) necessari per riprodurla alla grande...

  • this song makes me cry.

    especially when it's on at this part in the movie.

    <='0(

  • this film really concentrates on male loneliness in specific though.

  • when i died ,i want this song playing on my grave.

  • Comment removed

  • It was odd watching the film...I kept wondering why I was sad, but I reminded myself everytime that Sam, the one we know at least...Well, I dont want to spoil anything, but it really broke my heart. A surprisingly touching movie that delves much deeper into the human heart than many other modern movies around today.

  • what a movie

  • 3:20 i think is where sam asks gerty if he is a clone?

  • I usually only post this under David Bowie videos but it's also suitable here:

    Bowie = God!

  • This movie makes me want to give Sam Rockwell the biggest hug.

  • he always picks the best movies to act in and this one was a one-man-show. awesome actor, very touching movie.

  • Comment removed

  • Thank you for posting these tracks. The music really is another whole character in the film, underscoring the 'beautiful' tragedy of the Sam Bell clone. Far & away the best film of that year -- or any sci-fi movie since.

  • nobody has disliked this song because it is that good... this song makes everyone cry, it demands respect so to speak. Well done Clint!

  • God this song just cut me down.

  • I thought of a wife that I've never met, a child that was never mine, and memory that I borrowed from someone else... none of this is real... How can I hurt so much, for something that was never mine.

  • @sgrzesk Oh my god shut up you're making me cry :'(

    Isn't the sad movie enough? :'(

  • It was his. You kinda missed the point.

  • @justabloke1

    No dude, I think you missed the point.  Did you not understand the movie?

  • @sgrzesk

    same as it ever was

  • You've been up here too long man. You've lost your marbles.

  • Everything about this movie is beautiful and awful at the same time. The more I have watched it and listened to this soundtrack, the more captivated I am by them. This song is by far the best song on this OST. (You can't go wrong with a piano and reverb) This movie has given me the hope that good Sci Fi is still out there. It's obvious from the movie and the OST that a lot of love and care went into this. Just beautiful.

  • esta musica no hace mejores de lo somos.

  • Great score and great movie. From the very first moment i've heard this soundtrack i've fell in love with it , can't stop listening to it. Simply brilliant

  • Seriously, I think I've listen to this song over 80 times since I found it four days ago!!!

  • Fuck,... It's so good I can;t take it..

    Imagine slowing down time and falling while listening to this..

    Or lying in the twilight of your life somewhere in space listening to this..

  • 154 likes, no dislike-that says enough about this beautiful score ! :)

  • my god.... sooooo beautiful!

  • The soundtrack from The fountain was so beautifull and now this ... He truly is an amazing artist !!

  • Beautiful music beautiful movie...just beautiful..that feeling , that longing to be with that person but its impossible yet living on with a hope ..its the same feel i got from the movie A.I where the boy wants to be with his mom but its impossible as hes an AI yet he tries to reach her...

  • I think the saddest part of the entire movie was when he went to that video-chat and found "his" daughter,but it turns out "his" wife had died.

    He really cared about her,but he never even knew her really. It was justy so sad...

  • i don't cry in movies its just stupid.But this movie made me feel so disturbed :'(

    10/10

  • He hopes,he wants his family...But he's a clone...Just a lonely clone.G4M€ 0V€R.

  • The note at 2:11 breaks my heart. So beautiful!

  • @TheArkFilmGroup The film breaks my heart every time, it's an overwhelming performance, and as for this track, for me it's that central refrain that really hits home

  • @delltardboy Gerty seemed reluctant to tell Sam the truth at first. "Sam, I can only be held accountable for what happens on the base." This was from the scene where Sam is asking Gerty about the video tapes...or another great example, when Gerty would not let Sam 5 leave to investigate, he had to fake a leak to get out. I think Gerty's epiphany was much deeper then an error in code. I actually agee with most of your points, though i has been a while since watching S.O. havnt related the two.yet

  • I especially enjoyed the relationship between Sam Bell and Gerty, when Gerty suggests deleting his history, and their final goodbye scene..it was quite emotional. They had been friends for years, and despite being programmed to keep Sam contained and unaware, actually helped Sam seek the truth...Perhaps Gerty had some sort of epiphany but none the less, showed more human emotion then the power hungry corporation that put them there. Amazing movie, soundtrack, everything. Thank you!

  • @PuckYouMeez it was cuz GERTY was programmed to help Sam and was Sam's "friend" he wasnt programmed to help the company he was only created by them thats why he doesnt listen to the company guys GERTY has a real functioning mind tho hes supposed to be like HAL but more advanced thats why HAL tried killing them in Space Odyssey cuz he was programmed to serve the company and complete the mission GERTY was programmed much differently which was a mistake by the company

  • The film made me question just what 'real' memories arel. Do we really know that any of our memories are 'real'? Is not the only true reality what we are experiencing now - once passed into memory how do we know anything ever happened? Our memories could all be as 'real' as Sam's.

  • I want this played at my funeral

  • For those wondering, the one who died was sam 5 and the one who got back to earth sam 6.

  • @spuzmanX ya thats quite obvious i mean Sam 5 (the one whos time was almost up on the moon) his lifespan was over so he was gonna die either way i mean so is Sam 6 tho once the 3 years pass he dies too the clones were only designed to live 3 years

  • Of course it's just a story, but what is true is that those memories of that young woman and that little baby that we all have are not real anymore, and that you can't go back home because time has passed when you weren't looking and now you are old and alone and can't stand it.

  • What is wrong with the Academy of Motion Pictures? I just can't understand it.

  • This is by far the best song from the soundtrack. I'm almost crying from remembering the scene this song played in.

  • @ThisFreakinLunatic it was in a few different scenes

  • 113 thumbs up...and nothing down!

  • @thebailey67 There is one. I meant to click Thumbs Up but my computer lagged so i pressed thumbs down by mistake. Desole.

  • @Rikuji20 u r forgiven..lol

  • I knew what was coming in that one scene.....when he tried to contact his wife....(Ive seen it before)....and even the second go around I was devasted.....

  • sad :(

  • id give sam a hug

  • i think im feeling sad :/

  • This is my favourite sombre music on the piano since moonlight sonata. it is beautiful.

  • It's quite touching of how the song relates to the movie. How he left behind a piece of himself on that moon ... and how all he really wanted was to go home. The song puts that in focus -- the man he never really knew that he supposedly was.

    Simple, layered, and a very expressive film.

  • the scene where he looks at the Earth in a panaromanic view in front of him, and longs to go back Earth, his home, to be with his wife and daughter... These emotions are what makes us human... Truely a great movie.

  • Epic. No over done CGI, no over done acting, no cliche monster themes... its as if the film was next to you and I think its something the rest of the film industry can learn from.

  • "that's enough, i want to go home..."

  • "I want to go home."

  • also the film brings up the question who we are and what makes you the person you are, the dna? the memories? what if there is a guy with your dna and memories, what makes you special? and so on, touching movie

  • The title of this song comes into extreme irony with my own feelings :/

  • this is such a deep and powerful film. and now when i'm listening to this track, scenes from this movie come my mind instantly. also the title is genius - Memories (of) someone we'll never know...

    this is not a film you forget the next day. this is a film that makes you think, makes you interpretate it's meaning in your own way. this one will definitely always be at the top in the list of my favourite films

  • @yoblive I agree. I've only just recently watched this film and I was blown away. There isn't one bad thing to say about it and the feeling it gives you from the acting, soundtrack and just the sheer presentation is something you rarely see in other films.

  • i live it this past winter for that its now my favorite movie. even if i wasn't in the moon

    it felt like it. and at the end, my own end its coming too.

  • mmm

  • This is my 2nd favorite ch00n on the OST except the Theme.

    Epic soundtrack.

  • Absolutely incredible soundtrack. So epic feeling. This one is my favourite piece though I think

  • where can I download the soundtrack? I didnt see it on amazon

  • This movie was so simple and beautiful. I love that scene where he is crying in the rover after the call too. That longing we all feel at some point in our lives for some person, place, or thing. "I want to go home."

  • @greg71579 ya but the weirdest thing is the home he knows he never really knew and doesnt exist anymore cuz hes living 15 years in the past the real sam is 15 years older and his wife is dead now its so strange so even if he got back to earth he would have nothing and that was Sam 5 who made that call so he was gonna die soon anyways because his 3 year life span was over

  • This OST is so powerfull, it almost makes me bawl.

  • this scene definitely depressed me, in a very "beautiful" way. im glad everyone on here seems to agree.

  • *SPOILERS* The scene where GERTY tells Sam the truth and his smileyface frown turns into a crying face was so powerful and sad that it stuck with me. When I re-watched that scene, the music of it really hit me. There are very few orchestral pieces of music that make me cry, and since I've never found the piano to be a particularly sad sounding instrument, never before has a piano piece of music made me cry. But this song...I'm bawling throughout the whole song.

  • I always remembered that scene when the old Sam sees the other Sam fly off, I really felt like crying.

  • Can't believe this didn't even get nominated for a single Oscar category.

    Instead 'UP' wins for its dull unoriginal score, which is a generic thirties-esque tune with a solo piano mixed in.

    This entire film was a breath of fresh air;superbly acted, original, heartbreaking yet hopeful, intriguing, even funny at times. But no Academy don't nominate the only memorable film of the year!

  • i don't want to imagine what it would feel like to know your own family whom you love doesn't know who you are and theres no way to reach your wife

  • Probably the saddest movie scene I've ever seen.

  • I watched this movie for like 4 times.

    one of the best movies in Hollywood history.

  • Instant CLASSIC. I LOVED THIS MOVIE AND SCORE!!! Thank you Duncan Jones, Clint Mansell, Sam Rockwell and everyone involved for creating this amazing work of true cinematic art. That is very rare these days.

  • Low-budget films are the future!

    In recent years they have been very much on the rise. It shows that you don't need hundreds of millions of dollars to create something beautiful, intelligent and memorable.

  • some of my favorite films, even today, are french new wave--a whole genre of time defying films!

  • S Rockwell´s acting just perfect 2 different people on the stage. Awesome loneliness and sadness. great soundtrack. Film of the year.

  • I think one of the reasons why this movie is so moving its because it touches male loneliness in a very deep and soft contemporary way. The music especially. Congratulations to Duncan, Clint, and everyone else involved, especially Sam Rockwell.

  • I totally love the whole lonesome theme to movies and music.

  • @jatigre1 How is male loneliness different from female? Agree otherwise

  • @steinivalda well... man have a tendency nowadays to be portrait as weak and a "wuss" if he shows any real feelings. Women apparently are turned off by man crying or showing their true emotions. In my opinion, this movie was made by men, to a male audience. In my opinion, one of the reasons the increase in divorce is because women are purposely looking for money instead of true love, and once the rush is gone, all there is is love, and when there's no love left... well there you go...

  • @jatigre1 Yes this was a movie done for once that wasn't insulting my intelligence as a man.

  • @jatigre1

    man, you know my soul...,

  • @jatigre1 Thats probably exactly why males find it so much more emotional than a female would :O

  • @jatigre1 Yes. Exactly.

  • @jatigre1

    Not just male loneliness. Human loneliness in general.

  • @MamboCat84 I think that to a certain degree this is true however the film does depict a pretty harrowing story of male loneliness in specific.

  • CitizenKANE2277 you took the words outa my mouth, a little masterpiece of a movie.

  • I can't stop thinking about this film. Just, amazing. Words cannot describe the emotion I felt in the scenes where he trys to contact his wife from the live link, and the scene where he puts the second Sam back into the crashed rover near the end. This film is an underdog masterpiece.

  • True. It's not one of those action movies where things get shot or blown up, and that works to its advantage in making everything seem more realistic. Very bittersweet.

  • Argh! don't remind me! XD

    I'm a dude who usually keeps his calm, and I was full-blown crying during theese scenes.

  • you're right.

    Italy,

    Lecce

  • @CitizenKANE2277 he makes the part his own :D

  • Yeah man. It was the best film I've seen for ages and this music is so fitting for the sad moments.

  • @CitizenKANE2277

    Spoiler Alert!

  • @CitizenKANE2277 My thoughts exactly. This film is special, real special.

    So is the music. Still listening to it nearly daily after more than a full year of doing so.

  • @CitizenKANE2277 this is one of the movies where after i watch it i say, that was the best movie ive ever seen.

  • played exactly on the saddest parts of the movie.....so powerful!

  • god that hurts, how beautiful.

  • Epic .

  • "I just want to go home!"

  • awesome movie...awesome music...! this song is the best form the movie

  • wondefull ,

  • Great movie, great and touching soundtrack especially this song.

  • one of the best movies iv ever seen.

    clint mansell great again

  • it's beautiful....

  • Yes, thanks for this.

  • Beautiful track. Very moving and captured the moment in the movie.
