[phionsoulbane]

Kooyanisqatsi is one of the most artistic and powerful films i've ever seen. I love the actual music for this film but this is a good vid nontheless

[skcusderf]

great editing of the film mate

[smokedawg420ful]

bonnaroo!

[jimik89]

[shinryohji]

Koyaanisqatsi and reptilia mix pretty well.

[bjonas0725]

I love this.

[MarconisRadio]

Not only am I seeing them for the second time tomorrow, but I looked this up because I just covered "Reptilia" in my biology class. Can't wait until tomorrow.

[McGryphon]

Love JC's reaction to this song on Top Gear S04E01. Awesome song.

[ogrudeboi100]

If u enjoy indie rock I took some vids of this band Viva Mars in my videos. I was blown away by how good they were.

[FatTonyCologino]

i watched koyaanisqatsi one time , its not necessary but i would recommend smoking a doobie before if you ever wana watch it.

[euyfdvfhj]

I love this song. But now I love this video too :D

[Bemlikanz]

The Strokes = The best band Ever

[dann1burk]

Flipping cool stuff man

[Rosiris30]

Que buena musia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[denisse96ful]

QUE CHIDA CANCION EN BERDAD ES LO MEJOR..=)

[307107714]

Es hora de ponernos in-d

[DecaffinatedBoy]

Bring on the new Baraka movie - Samsara

[echoftw]

love koyaanisqatsi and i love this song over it too. Don't get me wrong i love the original movie + music, but this is a surprisingly good combo..

[iDislikeAdverts]

Top video mate, fair play. Quality tune!

[salvador4th]

awesome the new strokes albums coming out this march

i've been waiting so long i cant wait

[JTCodel]

Great video art. Maybe you should do music videos for a living.

[DArcyFD]

@JTCodel maybe

[sk8Bombercito]

wowww,,, congratsss it's a lovely video ;)

[4DayWeekendVEVO]

because of vevo i cant watch ONE of their videos on their official channel

[swatka2580]

@4DayWeekendVEVO SME not vevo.

[MrBrightside171]

quality song

[gerardo77581]

This video is one of my faboritas, if I could throw a million at aria veses

[bluefeet]

this is a really good song!

[guaditarios]

put Alpha Beta Gaga - AIR

and fits perfect

[sotti88]

Great video bro!!

[Noumenon4Idolatry]

This is an awesome video for this song.

[chrisbinns1974]

I like this a lot. Nice one, ignore the haters, theyre only jealous.

[SummerGameProject]

Wow, I really wish the lyrics would have meaning to the video, but, I enjoyed the video nevertheless. It shows how consumerism and a fast paced life style has taken over our world - and that, "the old pioneer days" are gone forever. Damn good editing!

[elocrellim]

THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!

[rafinhan]

the music perfect fits to the movie... congrats

[puddi147]

good job man quality song too

[jalmanzo]

Such an ill video....my compliments to the chef.

[kuriibgk]

GOOD!

[Dronni3805]

dope video music and song gotogether pretty damn good!!

[Blainne1]

I need to see the white stripes and the strokes before I die.

[Bonidex]

Incredibly the video and song match very well together. Great song and great work on this one!

[lairbooo]

I always loved watching this movie growing up. Its great with this song too. Nice Job.

[1313MickMars1313]

@ChipMau5 Just like your life, I advise you go end it.

[Bolton9000]

@DArcyFD i really liked it :)

really clever vid that seemed to suit the music :)

[kermitisdead2]

mate your arguing with the person who created a video with over a million views why bother

[bojoben]

@UjjijjU Prick.

[benjamin308]

Superb piece of work. Well done.

[amaandaclaro]

Fodaaaaaaaasticccc! HUAHAUAH

[TimmDiesel]

This footage is beautiful.

[Mrjacksusan]

for me

imagine life his heart

[janecampbell81]

great job man!

[tydigame]

Good editing of a great film into a good video.

[SuperiFox]

@DArcyFD agreed.

[comofuncionan]

Looks a lot more like 70's than 1982 hell yeah¡

[noahcarter]

the very definition of mash-up.

[chukas88]

Listening to this while doing math homework = bad idea.

Haha, there is not way I can pay attention to numbers while this melody is rocking.

[TheStrawberrykate]

@chukas88 no way!!!!! im doing math too!!!! great minds think alike :)

[killmekitten]

@chukas88 haha I was literally doing the same thing this moment. I have my algebra right in front of me.

[94josema]

@chukas88

jajaajajaj like me¡¡

[llsk8rayll]

thinking style "the strokes"!

[zoeaxoxo]

61 people had fat fingers which covered the like and dislike button

[Lisenertheband]

[kingalbundi]

[samb141]

uMmm..

[12345JJBB]

@DArcyFD Description*

[DArcyFD]

@12345JJBB ha yes im retarded :) the description

[Vleertouwer]

@DArcyFD

repetition is not necessarily a bad thing... ;) This song would prove that

[poxas]

Fantastic

[chris84bloom]

My fave so far!

[aaronp1251]

goes so well with this, awesome.

[Vleertouwer]

koyaanisqatsi: Koyaanisqatsi (, ), also known as Koyaanisqatsi: Life out of Balance, is a 1982 film directed by Godfrey Reggio with music composed by Philip Glass and cinematography by Ron Fricke

[DArcyFD]

@Vleertouwer yep!

[SuperiFox]

@Vleertouwer where was the movie filmed? cause the escalators looked like they were from this one mall in San Francisco, and i thought i saw the bay bridge.

[Vleertouwer]

@SuperiFox That's right, it has partly been filmed in San Fransisco

[SuperiFox]

@Vleertouwer oh cool! :) thanks man!

[sobeczech]

LOL is that a man dressed as a woman? 0:55

[vxemy]

@sobeczech NO! is a man LOOKING like a woman xD

[kaygeo]

beauty, incredible tribute to an incredible cinematic experience.

[chriscasablancas]

GOOD JOOB! CONGRATULATIONS!

[darkspidermask]

goood song

[phsycoman2244]

Only two words describes this song: real music

[stocktonheath]

immense, epic and pure poetry all in one :)

[Vellocet513]

So amazing!

[marinapetrov88]

WOW good job!

you used the good shots/ scenes from koyaanisqatsi.

[portar11]

turu ru rururururururururururururururu­rur dirud dirud dirud k mierda k cancion tan perra mui bna

[wilson0022]

que buena cancion

[pallid56]

The cinematography is by the great Ron Fricke you uninformed nitbobs

[RazorSF]

I don't really care if you don't own the song or the original video, this "exercise" is a piece of art.

[idontnoapassword]

lol guitar hero 3 song

[superj3ll0]

please don't slow me down!

[chanceie12]

KOYAANISQATSI is that the film from these clips? man the cinematography is sick.

[camilocamacho8]

:)

i like

[enabatgirl]

excellent editing!

[LilyGallardo]

man that´s cool :P

[STOPtheHORROR]

That looks awesome.

[vxemy]

OMG!!! i love this song!!!!!

[zazeify]

great editing job. also shows how versatile Fricke's images are.

[alibradley78]

good song and video,that i watch repeatedly :)

added to my favs :)

[ThinCrustPizza67]

I'd like to cruise on that road in the beginning.

that's all I get out of this video and song sadly...

[08serenityhutchings]

dude, good goddamn job!

[daaaashi]

wake UP!!!...goin to SURF!! ;)

[ypaolell]

Great Job, congratulations!

Even better than the official video.

[southkisame]

 i really love the song and your video :)

[MrStephensmitty]

Amazing Job

[ferretspy440]

I really enjoyed your editing work, this looks fantastic and works great with the music.

[dreamfuelz]

River Of Brakelights 2:37

nice video (y)

[DoobieSmokes]

I really liked this. It actually looks like it could be the legit music video. I actually enjoyed this video more then their actual one.

Good job!

[Ga7cun7sSUCK]

@DoobieSmokes yeah that vid kicked ass this guy should have made the actual vid himself, 

[0911leslie]

i love this song ¡¡ yeah

[crafTfox]

This makes me so happy! The song is so perfect for this (cause Phillip Glass' repetitive insanity starts to grate on me towards the middle of all the high speed stuff). Probably one of my favorite movies as far as cinematography is concerned. Koyaanisqatsi plus Strokes FTW.

[EscapeTheKO]

Was 1:16 the escalators in the mall or subway part of the late world trade center? Just curious to know..

[AnnemieHeffie]

this is very well done. and it suits the song so good.

congrats!

[HardFiRichie]

Good editing mate.

It's gold standard :)

Kept me entertained all the way through (Y)

[TheAntonioElias]

muito muito show

[mutzigmorzine]

Am I the only one who finds it impossible NOT to air guitar to that solo?

[bookworm3583]

This needs to be the official trailer for this song.

[Izaak247]

looooooooooooooove this song. plus its suprisingly easy to play on the REAL guitar :P

[521182]

@Izaak247

Do you know what effect they are using for the solo?
