Earlier this year, Above & Beyond performed some of their best-loved songs acoustically as part of a 15-piece band, across four sold out shows at London's famous Porchester Hall. The response from fans was overwhelming and led to two sold-out nights at The Greek Theater in Los Angeles in October, described by Billboard Magazine as "one of the finest and more memorable shows in EDM history."
Above & Beyond partnered with THUMP on the production and filming of the London shows to create a concert film that captures the Porchester Hall performances and the story behind the acoustic project. The songs performed at Porchester Hall also form the basis of the "Above & Beyond Acoustic" studio album, which was recorded in the spring and summer of 2013 and features a 24-piece orchestra.

My love is like footsteps in this snow, baby I follow you everywhere you go, baby The palest light has come to wake you But you will never realize That I inspire the dreams that guide you, baby I follow the winds that bring the cold, baby I'll light a fire in your soul, baby The lightest touch of feathers falling My love may be invisible But I inspire the dreams that guide you, baby You're a half a world away But in my mind I whisper every single word you say And before you sleep at night You pray to me, your lucky star Your singing satellite Your singing satellite, your satellite Your singing satellite You're half a world away I'm stealing time from my own life All the hours that God sends I'm flying high on my red-eye And winding down the window My future is a Valentine Stolen in the perfect crime And I know I'm living out of line But with a blazing smile I'll die You're a half a world away But in my mind I whisper every single word you say And before you sleep at night You pray to me, your lucky star Your singing satellite

Speechless. Unbelievable. I've been watching this since 2015. It moves me every time. I can't count how many times I've listened to it. I haven't listened to it for a year, but I just listened to it 4 times in a row. The absolute raw emotion it pulls out of me is Beyond words. Power.

But suddenly today 8 July 2022, I found it !!! I am so happy and every time I close my eyes I feel that I am back in 2017 .. . which was a dark time for me.

Our parents could not take care of there 5 children. Frans died with a big smile on his face at the ICU Tergooi Hospital Hilversum The Netherlands, within 4 minutes after the doctors shut all the live saving equipment off. “With a blazing smile I die”. I miss my brother. Frans is above. Frans is home.

Her voice is like an Angel. This song has touched my heart since 2004. I dated someone who lived 2 hours away, we met online (which was weird back then), but she introduced me to this song and though our relationship didn't work, this song still touches every part of my past and reminds me of good times and inspires me to move forward. I love how music can inspire everyone in different ways. I hope you enjoyed my inspiration and memories from this song. The feeling never really goes away, regardless of how long it's been.

So many year later, so ever timeless

[@joreellex]

Now let me start by saying this: first of, wow amazingly wow! Tremendous musical arrangement. This is ART, real ART, PERIOD!!!!! I mean, i dont care what people say but when you bring these talented people together you make or create a unique work of art. For many out there, DJs, producers and composers of Electronic music they are not about pushing buttons and being in front of a computer manipulating a software to recreate musical sound and entertain us, no not really! These people actually go to school, study the music industry, the sound industry. These people have a degree in sound engineering, music writing and composition. I consider these people way better or equally like any freaking super star of todays music. They execute their work most of the time way better than those we consider super stars but this is my humble opinion. I applaud those DJs, producers and composers of EDM or Electronic music for showing that not only they have the skill in that genre but also acoustically. Also, yes they are some DJs, producers or composers with no music background or school who learned by themselves and still do better work sound than many, thank you very much.

[@henifitrianingsih6983]
