If there's a perfect song in the world this might be it. The lyrics to this song are amazing and the melody along with those beautiful strings in the background. It's so amazing how many emotions a simple song can bring out. I love music and life so much, I do realize.
remember first time i hurd this song i lost a close family member. to this day it still makes me cry every time i hear it but hey life gose on i gues.
On my graduation a new teacher that started that I absolutely adored told me to search this song up on my graduation bear and now I can't stop smiling!
@godforge2003 Do you realize how narrow-minded you are, man? How blind you are? How brainwashed you are? Just because something is beautiful, it isn't hurting your precious masculinity.
do you relize that everyone you know will die instead of saying all your goodbye's let them know relize that life gose fast its hard to make the good things last you relize the sun done go down
this song is for you and me and eveyone who will always read tell someone that you care then let them know you relize that someday you and me will die
I have a brother who will never live to see freedom because he chose a way of life that landed him in prison. His son often asks me where he is and I cant bring myself to tell him the type of person his father really is, and its songs like this that make me want to hate my brother for being so selfish and not realizing the hurt he puts in his sons heart. The lyrics in this song explain exactly what I feel when I think of my nephew when I held his newborn body for the first time.
Check out The Perennials! They are a really great band and their music is beautiful. You can find them on youtube, facebook, myspace, wordpress, itunes, etc.
i love sitting back in my computer chair and just relaxing to the sound of this song, its almost like a trance. amazing song. thanks for putting it up for the world to hear =]

@Navdeepsmom yeah the original artist is Postal Service, they are truly amazing :) I couldn't find their original up on here but its sounds pretty much the same :) They are most famous for the song "Such Great Heights" also when in this genera I believe John Mayer is also pretty mellow and pretty famous :P
"Do you realize that everyone you know someday will die. But instead of saying all of your goodbyes, let them know you realize that life goes fast its hard to make the good things last. Do you realize the sun doesn't go down, its just an illusion caused by the world spinning round..."
That quote is probably one of my favorite lyrics of any song out today.
The reason the song is so great is that if you're driving in the car with the windows down the music mixed with the winter breeze can either be: so exuberantly refreshing, it slaps a huge goof of a smile on your face. One you cannot (and would not) take off your face OR that same wind and same song can push those watering eyes over the edge, and bring you to a deep sulk. What makes it even better is that not any given spot in the song evokes the same end of the spectrum of emotion.
We're NOT floating in space! 'Floating' implies buoyancy. No buoyancy is going on.
Yeah, I realize that scientific accuracy is not the goal here, just thought I'd point out the mis-information. We've got enough poor information already.
That's not the only definition of floating smart alec, go look it up in the dictionary, there are a good few example with a more flexible, descriptive meaning. This being one of them.
Hey original poster, If you put your face up when the band says "you have the most beautiful face", then you are a fuckin self-inflating egotistical bitch. If not then ok.
Life moves on without you whether your ready or not. Brace yourself because it moves quick days getting shorter. pretty soon your 65 ready to retire. Did you make an impact on this earth. How did you treat people? Everyone wants to be loved, so spread the love and quit making fun of the innocent ones.
I just heard this song for the first time and it made me cry. Why not tears of joy for when someone passes on its a time for reflection. Don't cry because their gone, cry because they made you happy in life. Don't get stuck in the past either.
Only say shit thats nice! Have you no manners?? You know, what u spread is an outward projection of yourself. So spread love. What a fantastic song, and a nice video.
First, great job. It takes time and effort to sync images and sound to put together decent videos. Second, to the "people" who don't like it...GO FIND ANOTHER BAND! The Flaming Lips are NOT a negative force! Wayne is on of the most uplifting personalities I've ever met. I've never heard him talk shit about anybody (except W). You folks that don't like this, go back to your ICP shows and DMB concerts! UniqueGirlXliving~Keep doing what you like. No one liked the lips before Yoshimi anyway..
Love all the arguing and bitching people leave as comments....fucks sakes, its a great song, someone uploaded it NICE AND LOAD AND CLEAR, made a vid to go with it and many wankers bitch.....just enjoy the song, and thanks UniqueGirlXliving for the upload.
I lost my wife and soulmate of over 4 years 4 days ago. She's gone forever. I wanted to just end it all Wednesday Night, then I suddenly this song would not leave my brain, it refused to let me go, I couldn't get it out of my head. I wish Wayne Coyne could know that his music saves people's lives, it really, truly does. When you see the love in his eyes while he's performing... Fuck. I wish everyone could do something that made them that happy. Thanks Flaming Lips, your music is a miracle.
@pavoman23 I think I made that pretty obvious. Because you capatlized on, excuse me STOLE, someone else's touching story of their personal suffering and copied it onto another video. You lied, plagiarized, and conned people into feeling sympathetic for you when the entire time you were just a selfish prick desperately seeking a couple green thumbs up to feel better about yourself.
I thought this was a John Lennon song and was looking for it in my Ipod but I couldn't find it.

The reason the song is so great is that if you're driving in the car with the windows down the music mixed with the winter breeze can either be: so exuberantly refreshing, it slaps a huge goof of a smile on your face. One you cannot (and would not) take off your face OR that same wind and same song can push those watering eyes over the edge, and bring you to a deep sulk. What makes it even better is that not any given spot in the song evokes the same end of the spectrum of emotion.
