Flying- music video by Seize the day

[bmbullman1]

Another beautiful song. Ignore the haters, they don't know what their talking about.

[ThePianoMan173]

While the message of the son may be not be accurate, it is impossible to tell what's false and what's real in this age. Scientists constantly contradict each other, but I can respect the activism of these people - entertaining factoid; they got banned from a stage for some protest or other, then showed back on stage in the nude, and semi-improvd. a song about nudists rights.

one plane vs 250 cars per couple

[dovesmagic]

I'm not sure that "flying is a climate crime." I'm a pilot and my plane gets better fuel economy than my 4 cylinder Ford Ranger, and my friends 30 mpg Mazda Miata. Also considering the fact that I don't have to follow roads and can go directly to the next airport, I'm covering less distance. These days, it is common for planes to do much better than the vast majority of cars, with the exception of Prius style cars.

[airwolf511]

7/10 for the voice

8/10 for music

0/10 for the songwriter

i ve got a better id, leave the rainforest in one peace

[FreePartyFrantic]

I don't agree with flying. I haven't seen my parents in 3 years cos I refuse to fly, and hitching doesn't work. Such a shame!

[larcybird]

I have some very old seize the day on tape...passed on by a friend who was active on the 90's road protests, M65, Newbury and Manchester airport. These guys practice what they preach and have massively got my RESPECT!!!!! ;)

[HTLight]

omfg this is SOOOOOOOO BAD. lmfao

[FreePartyFrantic]

@HTLight

Shush!

[SPEEDBIRDBOAC]

I love this, And thats my BA uniform! Fantastic work guys!

[WangSneeWangPangVang]

Just go gliding, like me =)

[culchasampla]

Perhaps we need to avoid flying now,

if we mean to avoid auto-catalytic Global Warming.

Holiday down the road, not down the continent.

[mckshrmptn]

goddamn this sucks

[thejetbushmaster]

i've got their album. i think this song is fucking shit, but all their (or most of) their other stuff is really melodic and i like it sooo much. xx

[dunctonhoney]

[lollie87]

[kevinairlocked]

It's cheaper to swim!

[gaiavoice]

Seize the Day tell it how it really is - again. But I reckon living off grid as you do, you must be in carbon credit by now! Go while you can afford to Shannon is my advice, or go by bike?!

[pussycatwilliam]

Class

[davidrobson1984]

p.s inspiring , cute (that's not a bad thing!!!), down to earth, and 'Tesla's DEATH RAY'!! is rubbish, a very basic google search will tell you that x. i love lying in the sun and swimming in one sea!!!

[davidrobson1984]

i got a pop up advert for flying lessons from google whilst watching this, irony? beautiful, hope you get to BGG 2009

[mebobmebobme]

My dad is in this band:D

Umm thats all i can think of saying XD

[CallMeGoat]

You win.

[welshmam]

Brilliant i love these folks :D

[DaftAida]

And my final word on this vital issue for all you noddies worried about jet fuel,and the comments on the biggest threat of nuclear war,forget jets and nuclear 'war' will be caused via H.A.A.R.P. which is Tesla's DEATH RAY capable of splitting Earth in two.This is critical to research and keywords are Bernard Eastland,Nick Beggitch and Nikola TESLA.Carp Diem.and this band needs to get an education and get REAL.QUICK.

[DaftAida]

By allowing those running this System to control your minds,you are enabling them to continue the destruction of life.All that is needed is to explore who benefits from 'global warming' by blaming it on the mass population? How? Why? What/who is proven scientifically responsible for weather changes? Blaming such on 'carbon emmissions' is scientifically ludicrous and insupportable.

[magi086]

I love Australia and am going back knowing i'm not damaging our planet.

Like the band they have good intentions.

Love their song about Palastine, maybe they should do a song about Depleated Uranium.

[magi086]

Last year i had a front window display about Chemtrails with info and pictures that i had taken in different parts of the world. About 3000 people took down the info.

The real scientist who are not paid by the gov's are saying we are actually going into an ice age.

I have done my own research into GM foods and the damage it causes, The dangers of vaccines, The Oil and Food shortages hoax.

DaftAida your brilliant...

[00enuf]

thanks seize the day on a personal and global level you have the remedy the message is clear ,we all need to take responsibility ,there are too many people throwing stones already and you share your truth in a humble playful way with a clear message .

[DaftAida]

Air Flight and 'global warming' is a big fat jumbo-jet red herring.Get real people - it's a hoax of Club of Rome in 1972.Focus on H.A.A.R.P. and Chemtrails,GMOs,Oil Industry instead of following the 'party line'.These guys SHOULD know better.Co2 promoters are working for the enemy!

[b4u2r1]

let me assure you that we are not working for the enemy :) daft suggestion... we are already challenging GMO's and if you listen to our other songs you'll see we're challenging oil too.... as for chemtrails? what actual evidence is there ? they sound a bit UFO to me

[DaftAida]

A BIT UFO?! Look up at the skies, anytime, most days - are you blind or just plain stupid? As for evidence,apart from your own eyes,you are, I assume capable of typing in CHEMTRAILS into a search engine?You are following the 'party political line' of implausable deniability.

[b4u2r1]

yes - a bit ufo ! in fact it really sounds daft 'chemtrails' . ideas like that are often spread by psy ops con-fusers, why are you bothering to even worry about it? the nuclear issue is far more in your face, gmo's are in the environment [and i'm happy you are opposed to those] and fossil fuel burning IS speeding up and interfering with a natural warming cycle- chemtrails are surely just con trails, so stop attacking people yourself, irritatingly gnawing away when we should be working together!

[DaftAida]

Does weather modification and the USAF patents on sky ownership,H.A.A.R.P. or Avian Flu Pandemic sound daft as well, then? Chemtrails deliver a package of immune-busting chemicals (hence the term CHEMTRAILS)metals proven to be harmful and weather modification.I know all the real environmental issues and 'global warming' via fossil fuel burning is utter nonsense and a huge SCAM.I do not 'work' with stupid, ignorant people who make knee-jerk assumptions instead of doing their research.

[magi086]

WOW!! you really know your stuff, know what your talking about i totally agree with you.

Anyone who doesn't bother to either look up their facts about HAARP or Chemrails should go stick their heads in a bucket, or keep using their mobile phones for more brain damage. Everyone is so dumb these days, Still thats the Gov's intention to make everyone stupid, an it seems to be working.

I WISH PEOPLE WOULD WAKE UP! Worldwide TOXIC CHEMTRAIL SPRAYING.

Our goverment admitted it last year.

[DaftAida]

Did they? The reply I got from the aviation minister was CON-TRAILS - he wasn't aware, bless his cottons, that any research had been done on Chemtrails. They do not officially exists, despite the evidence of our 'eyes in the skies'. Who admitted it and when?

[b4u2r1]

daftaida please stop H.a.a.a.r.p.i.n.g on about chemtrails - its like the chemtrail paranoia squad are all here now worrying us about about 'imagination trails' ... this thread is about the environmental damage caused by flying in a fossil fuelled plane not promoting your 'chemical myths brand' ... 'real scientists' - 'coming ice age'? just what is your problem.. magi086 talks of denial then says 'i'm off to australia and i'm not doing anything wrong' - ding dong its fair trade coffee time!

[johnpaulfrazer]

I was being serious ;)

[b4u2r1]

your post sounds a bit despairing which is understandable but you have to understand we're singing songs not writing laws - burn as much oil as you want if it pleases you - but it seems that nothing will please you except hurting other people and trampling on their picnic - in times of need we have to pull together not fall apart - i could easily come out with a line like that - even more offensive in fact - but i won't :)

[bioinspiration]

Environmentalism often just creates ways for the corporations to continue their rape of the planet and its inhabitants. Oil is running out, fortunately - but 'green' solutions, like biofuels, may just make things worse. A collapse (brought about by increasing our oil use, or even just 'business as usual') could be a way of encouraging down-sizing before we've done too much damage to the climate and ecosystems of the Earth.

[afewgoodclips]

Burn more gasoline! Use as much oil as you can! Yeah! If you ride a bike, attach a gas motor to it so you don't have to pedal! Yeah! Official figures? Please! You buy into all that crap? What am I gonna do? Burn MORE OIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!

[johnpaulfrazer]

Yeah! Burn baby burn. Burn it all. I'm buying another 4x4 tomorrow and I'll drive everywhere in 1st gear... Anything to hasten the collapse - and hopefully we won't have done too much damage when it comes.

[afewgoodclips]

I was just trying to be funny. lol

[b4u2r1]

save your bile and venom for those who actually run the show.. CO2 emissions are the biggest tangible environmental measurement that has people LISTENING to environmentalism - ok so you want to drive your 4x4 in 1st gear - well go for it, you'll be poorer sooner and hopefully more humble afterwards once you've tasted the real dirt of poverty - till then everyone should keep their chins up and not lose sight of the real goal which is creating long term sustainability :)

[afewgoodclips]

Chill out dude. You have to have a sense of humor in all of this or it'll eat you up. Peace to you.

[seejfly]

HIPPIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!:(

[flyswryan]

As an aviator and environmentalist, this song really hits home. I can only take solace in knowing that my wee plane gets much better gas milage than any SUV or minivan on the road today, but not as good as my wee Toyota Echo...soft landings!

[N520UP]

flyswryan, what kind of plane do you fly, a motorglider? I fly a 172 and it probably averages around 15 mpg, which is not very good.

Although to be reasonable, I don't fly it twice a day on a 50 mile commute like a lot of SUV owners do.

[M0NSIEURchi]

Point well made!

[manofchange]

[jamantcoo]

ace video, beautiful location

[mimstermim]

hits a nerve, this is a hard time of choices and even those of us fuly aware of consequences of our actions, and with a will to change the future to something more positive have to battle with the desire to fly.

[ShannonAli]

Wow! Beautiful.

[Domonesium]

Excellent video for an excellent song!

I particularly like the airline staff giving the demonstration.
