Angels & Airwaves "Diary" Official Music Video

[@augustolimaxD]

the most underrated band of the new century, period.

[@jackmalcic2949]

So agreed!! I think if they came out in the 90s they would've been huge, even bigger than Blink got

[@oellee3593]

Jack Malcic Wrong! Because There's No Online Media Back Then. Nahhh. Just Kidding, Man. Haha. I Agree With You. They'll Be A Big Hit In The 90s. :D

[@zepbenny]

So true!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Amen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@skypekai]

Lmao

[@tonymcgroarty4396]

Fantastic!!!!!

[@Blinkava182Angels]

My wife walked down the isle to this song the part were it starts with breath and the rest of the wedding was AVA too. AVA made our life

[@AnshumanDwibhashi]

Leaving a comment here for future reference.

[@zepbenny]

THAT IS THE MOST AWESOME THING I HAVE EVER HEARD! You are so lucky that both of you get AVA! God Bless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ADucksOpinion]

that sounds fucking amazing..

[@mwboost]

My wife walked down the isle to breathe. Our first dance was lost without you. Our daughter is called Ava. Not because of the band but love the name. Also great the band is also the name too lol.

[@joeyestrada9071]

That sounds so awesome

[@nikhilsuresh6214]

"Take me as your servant" is the most underrated line in music history.

[@skatenfilm66]

RIP Critter. I hope Tom knows how much of a musical hero he is to millions of people.

[@brunswic51]

This is a song where just sit back and realize how many people in your life mean the most to you.

Brother I’ve been listening to AVA since like forever and I just found this amazing song by accident and I can’t stop listening to it and thinking about this girl that I’ve fallen for and she doesn’t even know we are friends yes but just found out that she’ll be moving to Utah soon

[@zenon459]

[@jodyvance4114]

Yes sir, amen

whenever the magic of this song seems to slip away, i come back and watch this incredible video and end up in tears. nothing is more beautiful than the passion AVA puts into their music and message

Breathe Open out the air flow Taking in the ray of light Stretch across the long coast Falling back to past time Sleeping in your wallow Crying and shivering Hunting for your sorrow Bending down to hold it Shiver like you're gonna try Scatters like it a comets Killing off your habit [Chorus] Take me as your servant Take me as your weapon Take me as your courage Take me as your servant Take me as your servant Take me as your servant

[@jeremytee4793]

1) hold your breath at 5:00 when Tom takes the mic away and the music slows. 2) breathe again when Tom tells you to. 3) ascend bet you wont.

Play this song while your about to TAKE OFF on a plane. Try to make it match. 00:00 plane moves into the taking off zone 2:34 plane gets into the taking off zone 3:30 THE PLANE STARTS TAKING OFF! now is the moment when you are feeling the G forces pushing you to the back of your seat. you will see that by the end of the song you will finally fly above the clouds.

[@TrollingSince1992]

+Joselito Brigante yeah this is awesome

[@alceushunterx]

You don't need an airplane to make this work. those with pure imagination can make this happen.

[@evangelicoadventista]

+Joselito Brigante Nice airplaine parallel, but It's like +alceushunterx said, you don't need one to make it works.

[@CaptainFunBlade]

+Joselito Brigante Everytime I go to my girlfriend, by plane ( yes we're living far from each other ), I listen AvA songs all along the flight, Heaven - Diary - and more...

[@skatesurfsnowparty]

+Joselito Brigante I've done this (y)

[@willt178]

"Take me as your servant" Such powerful lyrics, Tom really did put his heart and soul into this song. One of AVA's all time best songs.

[@FlashStallone]

dick butkiss Illan Rubin.

[@MrAuralPleasure]

dick butkiss Where'd you read that, or see that?

[@abethedrummer]

dick butkiss no tom said illan had a large influence on the band but never said he wasn't part of the writing process, considering tom pretty much writes all of ava's songs that would make any sense to let the drummer take 100% role lol

[@ARequiredUsername]

Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. Before the women and true friends came into my life there was Angels & Airwaves, my first true love. No other musical artist has had such an impact on me, hell, before I heard WDNTW I thought I just didn't enjoy music in general. They've only been around for 8 years but the impression they've left so far is timeless. Through the tough times AVA always had me thinking positive and looking forward to the future. This video put an enormous grin on my face, I really needed to hear something to get me motivated today and this was just what the doctor ordered.

[@adammolot]

Hey, man, how did you get the woman and true friends at the same time? :-)

[@Atollon9]

"Passion with intensity, it's a complicated fusion. We are catapulted towards death. The mystique I adore is the beating heart of those who share my life. This is their legacy, in obscene glances, laced in silver." "I like writing; I do this to amuse myself. It's my life and I only get one go around. This was the result. Like life, it's tentative, fragile, and halting, and these are the memories gorgeous. And welcome home."

[@jolonidhi_bk]

i wonder, whose voice is this?

[@lenaschuler6828]

Critter rest in power

[@Nuggett1337]

I knew I read it from somewhere but never could figure it out where. It's been years people thought it was made up but yet in Critters world it brought me back home, in a way. Still can't wait for Tom's next project!

This is literally my favourite song ever.. It's crazy how much something as simple as a song can mean to you

[@Zikliv]

not the same

[@sebastienringuet8952]

Amen 🙏

[@MartyMcFly88]

This is definitely in my top 5 of AVAs songs. The part where Tom starts singing is so euphoric

[@benfolds17]

Literally is unnecessary...just say "this is my favourite song ever" Why the hell do people feel the need to add literally?

[@academy_killer]

Music like this makes you realize how painful everything is but at the same time, it makes you still want to continue living, you know? Because despite all the sorrows, there are also beauty, in almost equal amount, or perhaps even more. It makes you want to push through and discover them all, it makes you want to stay and be curious, it makes you want to see for yourself how it really starts and and how it really ends. At least that's how I feel. Late night thoughts listening to this.

[@7dloveable]

What a crime!! This band is so underrated by many people

[@TravHamm87]

Been loving Tom Delonge since the first time I heard Dude Ranch when I was 12 years old. This is easily one of the best songs he has ever made, and just seeing how much impact Critter had makes it that much more powerful. Jerry Finn made Blink, Critter made AVA. The hidden members, but not forgotten.

[@matthewstites4023]

Still one of the most beautiful composed songs Tom has created. Hate him, love him, doesn't matter anymore... it's about the big picture at the end of the day. The guy has talent and puts his all on the table

[@johnhull9073]

Been following these guys since the beginning. Amazing how far they've come and changed, and the journey they've taken me on. Long live AVA

[@MartyMcFly88]

the build up to the climax of this song is so amazing... 5:51 ORGASM OF THE EARS (you're welcome.) Tom's vocals gives me goosebumps in this song.

[@daveyio87]

This song gives me goosebumps every time i hear it...

Same here! As soon as Tom begins to sing is so beautiful

[@nischaladhikari3906]

Tom, you really are a musical genius. When I listen to this song an emotional current runs through my body. He was the best when he did Blink and he is THE best in Angels and Airwaves. You're an inspirational figure for millions, Tom!!

[@fedeee230]

Six years have passed since then, and this song still retains its magic and its message intact. Thanks Tom, we love you.

[@2ndAmndmnt]

Full body goosebumps @ 5:49. Breathe. Looking up to heaven. Taking in the ray of light. Stretching across the long coast. Falling back this last time. Sleep in a wallow. Crying and shivering. Hunting for your sorrow. Bending down to hold it. Shiver like a you're gonna try. Scatters like a serpent. Killing off your habit. Take me as your servant. Take me as your weapon. Take me as your courage. Take me as your servant. Take me as your servant. Take me as your servant.

[@owenstarr24]

I think it's falling back to past time, but the only one I see who can actually write and hear the lyrics

[@Jennykre]

This band is way way ahead of its time. Tom Delonge is an incredible musician and songwriter. The way he layers the songs is frankly ingenious. I’m in complete awe.

[@Varillah]

This man & band has motivated me to follow a dream & even tho I'm scared to make the change I so desperately want to, I know il find that courage to make it soon enough.

This is truly my favorite song I have ever heard in my time alive. Especially with the computerized words at the intro and outro. "Passion with Intensity, It's a complicated fusion." RIP Critter. Keep going AVA, Thank you for everything. It is crazy how much this band has changed my life & given to me.

[@mattolmedo4690]

[@lukew8560]

Why does this song to speak to me on such an emotional level? I just spent two hours trying to fall asleep with melatonin but couldn't so here I am literally shedding tears because I finally looked up the lyrics while listening. I didn't even feel this much emotion when I lost a girl.

A lot of people I know never heard of angels and airwaves. It's sad how much they are not known. His music, lyrics and his passion is what makes him such a great artist. I always feel bad for those who don't know. He's an inspiration to all and sends out powerful messages. We are faithful to AVA through thick and thin.

THIS is the message, right here. Also, that shot of security pushing the people back and the band walking off stage was sick.

[@Swagzaur]

I am very thankful for whoever or what got me into this band.. I've started to listen to this band as I had trouble in school with bullying, relationships, and school work. ( all the stuff I shouldn't have gone into ) This band has cheered me up so much and become more positive and push harder to get through the year.. I'm so glad I'm not the depressed kid in high school with bad bad BAD anxiety. I love Angels and Airwaves. For a kid like me in high school, I wish to meet Thomas Delonge...

[@sockone111]

When I'm feeling down about everything. I always listen to this song, It makes all the troubles disappear. I come to Angels And Airwaves, because, there is no real music these days. AvA is here to save music.

[@yelmosleh]

This song is amazing... very sad. I can't wait for Angels & Airwaves to go on tour again. I have yet to see one of their concerts.

I have been on this earth for 50 years and have not seen this event from any other band....it really it strange.

[@mariocastro1717]

no way dude. (well there's no denying his talent but honestly i haven't heard really any of Ilans stuff. i just loved Atoms style n sound so much) i also hate seeing all the promotional shots with just Tom & Ilan especially if David is still a member. like wtf? Eric Fisher

[@trentbosnic]

Mario Castro Ilan is better for the band because he can contribute way more than just drums. Tom says he is inspired by Ilan, and he needed Ilan to shake up the bands ways of somewhat predictable writing for the last couple albums. And David has just stepped back as more of a touring member of the band, contributing to little bits and pieces. He's got coffee to sell!

[@scottmorey4489]

This song gives me chills and a evokes an emotion that is hard to describe. AVA's music speaks to me like no other band. Tom is one of the most underrated song writers of our generation.
