  • @suppien Hahaha, 2nded

  • IF YOU CAN READ COLDPLAY CREDITS JOHN HOPKINS FOR HIS SONG LIGHT THRU THE VEINS!!!!!!! NO ONE STOLE ANYTHING OR REMIXED ANYTHING!!!!!

  • Life in technicolor - Coldplay ?!?!? What the fuck

  • Love at first hearing...<3

  • I don't even need weed for this one.

  • @Gunglove I do

  • must I educate eveyone.. Jon Hopkins - Monstors Theme.. Enjoy

  • psychological bliss - wish I created it

  • Preciosa :)

  • isn't this more of a remix of life in technicolor than a whole new song?

  • @MrJoejoe347 coldplay actually sampled him, not the other way around.

  • @shadowmanatee I never knew that, thats really cool. Also one of my fav jon hopkins songs.

  • @MrJoejoe347 its not a remix of technicolour im pretty sure its a whole new song. Search the escapist by coldplay and you'll see why :)

  • Segun yo la musica nacio con los colores de misma manera y al reves considerando que siempre pueden ir de la mano.

  • 23 People have no veins, let alone 'light' running through them!

  • That video is amazing. Combined with the music it's like a moving painting.

  • i think coldplay heard this and they hired him to produce the album for a crap load of money.

  • Jon Hopkins playing Alpha-ville Festival Friday 23rd September 2011 @ XOYO, London. Check it out!!!

  • The shiny thing is definitely mesmorising... And the track is awesome! Preferred to the CP version.

  • cores @.@ meus olhos queimam~~

  • lo escucho y mi alma es feliz

  • This must be what aluminum foil looks like when your tripping balls

  • very smooth cool piece of music...try to ear the theme "circle". it´s such a stone.... better if have had a good joint and you are listen it in nice pair of phones.

  • This song can make you feel so many different emotions, it's unreal. You can listen to it when you're happy or sad, angry or apathetic. Anything you can think of. This really shows that music is an art, and not made just for dancing or going crazy.

  • This made me take off my close and start rubbing myself on a hot stove. Lovely.

  • Can any John Hopkins fans help identify the song of his used in the Honda 'RGB' advert? It's here on YouTube at /watch?v=rnWE2lA8HiY

    Many thanks.

  • @Strike86 Looks like it was a custom composed track for the ad. Found that at lelandmusic dot co dot uk /commercials_honda.html

  • @alskdjfhklasdjf Legendary - thanks for the info.

    Shame it'll probably never be released, but then there's always the YouTube MP3 downloader. ;)

  • @Strike86 haha, amen. youtube2mp3 is my refuge!

  • echoes with john diliberto plays this all the time :) 

  • cool

  • Happy 4/20 potheads <3

  • i love this song but also the escapist by coldplay, a song with the same beginning

  • Fuck I'm high and this is too

  • @mooneymanl337 Give me some of what you got.

  • i love the shiny thing lol

  • @lilred922 Its like a liquid diamond.

  • olalala they've omitted the best ending part:(

  • YES!!!! I've been looking for this for years. FINALLY!!!

  • My official masturbating/orgasm song 2011.

  • O_O WAIT... WHY HAVEN'T I LISTENED TO THIS BUT HAVE LISTENED TO Life In Technicolor i & ii THOUSANDS OF TIMES?

  • @LeonimuZ you probably already know and im stupid for even saying this but jon hopkins has worked with coldplay in the past and did work with them again on viva la vida. anyways jon hopkins is pretty fuckin awesome and the shiny thing in this vid is super cool lol

  • @LeonimuZ dude, don't feel bad. apparently I'm 10 months behind you lol.

  • @LeonimuZ And the Escapist! So many times! Who knew it was all because of Jon Hopkins!

  • why did the bastards cut it in half?!?!

  • spaceships and sea creatures, but the shapes change too quickly, and I'm too drunk

  • reminds me of Kaito, Alva Noto + Ryuichi Sakamoto, and Saxon Shore all rolled up in one. I like it.

  • This should have won a Grammy for best instrumental song, not the 1 minute song from Gorillaz which I just heard and forgot the moment it ended. P.S. I know this song wasn't even nominated.

  • This just popped up on the Ipod.............very January 24th.....cold winters day uplifting music.....

  • Comment removed

  • My AIM is SunlightVeins, and then I hear this. Hmm. I'm in a different place with this now.

  • extasy

  • life in technicolor

  • If you are into this Jon Hopkins, you should really check out Sigur Ros, they're like this but better, their album takk is more mainstream, but still really good, but i prefer their untitled album "( )", it's one of their best

  • @TheCleaningFluid Sigur Ros are my all time favourite!!!

  • @TheCleaningFluid You speak the truth. Sigur Ros is the ultimate.

  • coldplay ♥♥

  • this melody is so amazing.

    it's so simple but touches you in the deepest part of your soul!

  • this music make me dream... i can't explain what i feel!! I think something like hope, joy, love, freedom and i imagine to fly...

  • total ear-gasm. anyone that thinks electronic music does not require talent should try to make something that sounds like this.

  • Simply sublime !

  • this is music.

  • I want to live in the womb of this music.

  • grandes composições...sinto-me num lounge....

  • Amazing, I didn't even know a majority of Coldplay's Life in Technicolor was originally from this song. Great piece of work.

  • Too many sparkles! I CANT TAKE IT!!!

  • amazing video to an epic track. I can stare at this non stop forever. looks like 15 people need to get themselves a life! x peace Jon

  • I watched the moving crap - I forgot I was sitting on a chair, watching a computer, on youtube staring at a screen, I didn't feel my legs crossed :D

  • @DDALKKUK8

    I felt exactly the same.I didn´t feel my body! oooh I a wanna LIVE in the womb of this music!!!

  • Wasn't this the beginning in Life In Technicolor?

  • @AgadoPhotography

    Yep.

    It was so nice, we had the wind on our faces, this music was blowing your ears of.

    After the concert I downloaded hes album.

  • love the cover by Antoine Dufour on this it's pretty soothing. =[]

  • bella canzone,ed è molto profonda

    

  • I have the full 9 minute version...Check it out!!

  • @HyperbirdF6 yeah the end is the best bit!

  • WHat song on the cold play's ablum i havent heard the whole thing yet

  • Coldplay's lyrics + Jon Hopkins's music= perfection. ;)

  • @mbjustme just the entire truth my friend

  • @mbjustme you know how i know you're gay?you listen to coldplay...

  • @beansmikebreak To each his own.

  • @beansmikebreak Fuck you!

    That is all....

  • @beansmikebreak Homophobes = closet homosexuals.

  • @beansmikebreak Go die in a hole.

  • this is almost what i see in my mind when i close my eyes and listen to my song.

  • I'd love to see this on a HUGE screen in 3D, that'd rock!!! :-D

  • lol I keep waiting for the other instrument to start playing then I realize, its not there :/

  • My god. This would be fucking beautiful on shrooms. I'm adding this to my to-do list.

  • WOW

  • I had no idea that Coldplay totally stole this, haha. I love it.

  • @mbjustme hopkins compose for them...

  • @mbjustme They loved how much it sounded when Jon was writing material for his new album. He tweaked the track so Coldplay had an intro and outro version to top and tail their album. He also helped produce the entire thing.

  • I have the full 9 minute version...Check it out!!!

  • Listened to it 4 times now. It's so hypnotizing! :) I love it!

  • Looks like a beautiful alien species. xD

    I like it though, the music fits perfectly to the video.

  • Whoa.

    when this first started playing

    it reminded me of Coldplay

    neat fact in the sidebar, thanks :P

  • Okey, fucking autothings are ruining the beauty of this!

  • hey can anyone tell me who created this animation?? its incredible...

  • now thats one of the more intelligent spam i've seen around youtube donaganey. youre still getting the thumb down and spam button, nt.

  • i have the full 9 minute version

    check it outt!!!

  • the guys coldplay , listen to the end of death and all of his friends , and the beggining of life in technicolor. its amazing how two tottaly different threads of musical expression join in such piece of music as the one in question.

  • Agreed,.. coldplay asked Jon if they could use it on their song. just like you said 2 groups of musicans that joined forces .. just wow

  • I totally agree. This song fits perfectly in the beginning of Life in Technicolor by Coldplay. Lucky that Jon Hopkins wanted to collaborate with Coldplay!

  • how can u repeat the album so that it fades into life in technicolor???

  • on iTunes you can just set the cross-fade of songs in the preferences to 1 sec - 12 sec

  • oh wow stupid me...nevermind. didnt even check the side bar. Sorry. lol

  • I have the full 9 minute version...check it out :)

  • @bijibadness don't do drugs

  • I never even knew Coldplay sampled this. It's one of the most gorgeous things I've ever heard.

  • Probably Brion Eno's idea to sample it.

  • Yes indeed it was.

  • wait this version skips the best part

  • Nice Description! :o
