  • Wow. Just heard this sampled in a new track by Loz Contrearas, beautiful...

  • Amores Perros at 4:20

  • This song makes me feel so many things: uncontrollable sadness, inspiration, happiness, hope and even emptiness. It's such an incredibly beautiful song that I can't help myself but to listen every single day. This song is an experience!

  • @cwolpert1 tears comes to me

  • buena mierda! 

  • Beautiful melody... Reminds me of "Can't Be Friends" from Trey Songz.

  • @funfamilyish thats cuz he sampled off of it

  • @funfamilyish Yea, Trey made a cover of this.

  • @TheZiggiization Yes, I know! :)

  • This song makes me cry because it reminds me of someone that I love so much with all my heart and he's no longer with me. I wish he could, I wish he could see that i'm here for him.

  • Jesus loves you!

  • babel has got to be one of the most beautiful films ive ever seen,...alejandro gonzales inarittu..please give us another great film....

  • @doublethumpbass89 try Amores Perros, beautiful film too! Cheers

  • This apparently is a song that move Roger Waters from Pink Floyd (according to an appearance I found of him on Desert Island Discs). If it can move someone like that, that says a LOT about this piece. :)

  • @tall32guy tallguy I reakon you'd be interested in this too, TheWTMchannel. I just came across it, if you like Roger Waters, Desert Island Disc, This piece from Babel you sound like you're into wondering about the world. I was blown away, answered so many things for me

  • @blqckdeqth  yeah, butufil

  • @blqckdeqth yeah, butiful

  • @irvinreal11 ya...thats not a word sorry.

  • i composed a piano piece thats kinda similar to sakamoto's masterpiece. what happened was that i tried to play sakamoto's piece on piano by ear, but i ended up playing my own knda melody. ROFL~ a serendiptious discovery. lol~ but it still sounds serene :)

  • trey songz plus wikipedia brought me here

  • en realidad no es endless flight, si no, que la cancion se llama Iguazu como las cataratas de la provincia de misiones. O es muy parecido.

  • This moment or the father discovers his daughter on the balcony is one of the most beautiful scenes that I have never seen in cinema! I cried so much... The music is really sublime, thank you Inaritu and Santaolalla for this magic moment which you made me live! (Sorry for my english)

  • Despite the melancholic tone of this music, I have always found it strangely and singularly uplifting... it reminds me by example of how much beauty there is in the world. One of the most stunning and sublime pieces of music I have ever heard.

  • This song makes me feel Sporadically Lifted for some reason.

  • notes at 1:53 - 1:57. Chivers..

  • 23 ppl clicked on dislike thinking - dis i like / or simply beiber fans

  • Please listen to my saxophone version of it

    watch?v=0K01wLn7Y8g

    Thank you

  • Normally, I don't listen to Trey Songz but that opening bit with this sample drew me due to the unusual depth. I didn't know he had taken it from Sakamoto. It explains a lot.

  • Crap! This is where Trey Songz took the sample from for his song 'Can't Be Friends'. Beautiful!

  • Mario Winans picked a good sample and produced it beautifully , the original is just top notch though.

  • I don't care if this song is basically looping itself over and over again, I have listened to this song for a full straight day and I still wasn't tired of it.

  • This of course deserved the Oscar.

  • Ayo trey songz write dis?

  • @Onabrown1 No, it was sampled by him. The original producer was a very famous Japanese pianist, Ryuichi Sakamoto.

  • Ahh teary eyes.. hahah

  • Memories of my old girlfriend......still have not found anyone like her...

  • @jp86ebay Accept that some in life leave a mark. This music evokes sadness

  • @jp86ebay, same boat my friend

    

  • @jp86ebay

    no shit man, many others feel like You. And why You two get apart?

  • @pgergely13 She had to go back to Japan...and I had to stay in Australia...

  • @jp86ebay

    Ohh so She was a Japanese girl? Thats explain everything. Jap girls can still act like a real woman, due the society mentality what they got at home. Especially compared to the Australian girls.

    But I totally agree with You, they all cute, good manner, loyal, all stuff what need to make a men happy. I envy on You taste a happiness and enjoyness the form of this relationship. Regards bro!

  • @jp86ebay

    I have the same problem...

  • What's a Trey Songz?

  • @SirBlindy a singer who used this song as his background music for his song Can't be friends

  • Trey Songz sampled this ayyyyyye well at least we know he has great taste in music

  • packfilz.com

  • This song always blows my mind and takes me to another planet, if God had a playlist, this song would definitely be in it.

  • The strings in this song just keep on sobbing and crying~

  • Listening to this song is my way of processing the drama that unfolded at Pukkelpop.

    Much support to the families of the injured and dead.

  • 4:09 to the end, I've grown weak...

  • absolument sublime!!!!

  • GOD I COULD LISTEN TO THIS FOREVER!

  • life.

  • beautiful

  • ..........the masterpiece of tranquility......

  • this is a timeless song for me...doesnt matter if i´m sad or happy...its always beautiful

  • its a shame that so many people know the song "Cant be friends" from Trey Songz without knowing that this is the original...in general too little number of people know Ryuichi Sakamoto

  • there are two songs within this, at least i believe so. I purchased Bibo No Azoara on iTunes about two years ago; the version I'd gotten was 11 minutes long and it was only the part of the song from the beginning to the 4:12 mark. The original is over 7 minutes long, so I purchased the extended version. The rest of the song on this video is Endless flight. Same guys, but two completely different songs.

  • Tje song just gives me goose bumps, so extremely sensitive, makes me feel soooo sad in a good way, if you know what I mean.

  • i dont know how anyone can dislike this piece...

  • QUE BELLEZA

    

  • i love this version.

    the timbre of guitar makes me fell how life is hard, but still need to live.

  • If you like this you should seek out Michael Nyman's "Drowning By Number 3" from the soundtrack of Peter Greenaway's "Drowning By Numbers". Mournful until the last few chords when it changes and becomes joyous and hopeful - amazing.

  • My favourite movie of all time, and this song fits perfectly with that final scene in it, and the feeling that.... "everything turned out how it should have done" (except the Moroccan boy was shot dead). Sometimes this music makes me cry. Other times it just makes me sit and think for a long time. Ryuichi Sakamoto is an absolute genius.

  • very comforting music

  • Crying to this song doesn't make me a girly girl does it?

  • Nope :p, crying is human not some girly thing :p

    @DMTwannaB

  • @Ayman30 I meant girly man*

    damn u lsd frying my brain

  • Marijuana Btw :p

    @DMTwannaB

  • FORGET THE LIKE BUTTON, WHERE'S THE FREAKING LOVE BUTTON!?

    

  • @RockaSweatervest10 totally agree with you!

  • it feels like this music was made just for you ! :)

  • tremendous piece with much emotional impact.

  • Comment removed

  • if it wsnt for trey songz, i wouldnt be here right now....amazing

  • QUE BELLEZA

  • for me the best par of the movie is when this song sounds... Absolutely perfect selection!

  • Just saw this movie, and all I can say is wow, Trey Songz's production team dug deep through their catalog. Great song both ways, his lyrics helped bring a different voice to it.

  • what does it mean "Bibo no Aozora"?

  • @TheRdr93 the endless flight

  • @TheRdr93 beautiful blue sky

  • i just can`t stop crying while i am listening to it

    it is just awesome it reminds me of all the miseries in our world and of my own miseries just love it

  • 20 people obviously don't know real music. 

  • like the movie, no words can describe this....

  • FLASH BACK!

  • The strings are telling different sad stories ..

  • B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L.L

  • the strings are talking like "why oh why? I just want to...why cant you understand...."

  • why he has the part when all strings are so disoriented? what does it symbolize?

  • para que gastar tantas situaciones negativas para semejante trabajo...

    vamos gustavo!!!!!

  • TRAGIC SONG

  • Pray tell me... How does one truly listen? May God have mercy on me.

  • Major, major like!

  • who the fuck is threy songz

  • Comment removed

  • I had never ever heard of Trey Songz..I heard this in Babel and was mesmerized.

  • Pretty good cover of the Trey Songz classic

  • @CircusSanctuary are you saying that this is a cover of  "Can't Be Friends"? lol

  • @CircusSanctuary Naaaa mate Trey Songz sampled this song. This is the original

  • ...and THIS won over John Williams' Geisha???? The academy has cotton stuck in their ears.

  • @UFOSPACE1999 no u

  • @UFOSPACE1999 No, they were nominated in different years. Brokeback Mountain won over Memoirs.

  • @UFOSPACE1999 Geisha was nominated the year before this. Of course, Gustavo Santaolalla did the score for this AND Brokeback Mountain which did win over Geisha, so it's basically the same thing. Clearly the score for Geisha just wasn't cutting it. How could you possibly hate on something this beautiful? Damn.

  • I just seen this movie yesterday for the first time and was like dang TREY SONGZ song is playin at the end lol but now i c where he got the beat from.... AND I WISH WE NEVA DID IT lol dang dats cool

  • This song truly is amazing. Trey Songz in his song, it's the main sample for Aether - Variance, and even Kondor - Silent Steps.

    Masterpieces never die. Good.

  • No wonder Trey Songz sampled it. This is truly an amazing song :)

  • this is so fucking beautiful. the most beautiful thing ive ever heard

  • one word..perfection.......

  • I think I comment about every 3 months..... this arrangement is beautiful!! Simple strings together with the soulful piano! Absolute pure harmony.... Strings at the end very "middle of the east" sounding until 5:39 but still!!! How can I judge such greatness?? This is beautiful modern day "classical" music.

  • Que bonita la cancion y la pelicula...

  • which song did trey sampled it??

  • i'm melting when listening to this, especially when listening to the second part of the song

  • lol internet

  • Everybody on here is getting mad at Trey Songz singing on this, but every1 fails to mention the guy who sampled and produced it.:Troy Taylor...It ain't ALL Trey's fault, lol

  • love the track but specially the guitar part is amazing!
