Augustana - Boston (slow version feat. Daria Werbowy)

*Made this video after watching Augustana's Boston music video. Frankly, Augustana's video is cool as it gets, but couldn't help but wish there was more, especially a story or a plot behind all those waves crashing into the band members. Something was missing.
So, kinda decided to make a visual mashup of the fantastic song with some clips! :) This is a tribute to Augustana! and to Daria Werbowy! and to the brilliant Jordan Scott!

This is the best version of this song and it's a shame it's not on Spotify.

Slow version = Best version

[@indysupercolts18]

agreed, I prefer this version so much more

[@JR-90]

I prefer this version over the one they decided to make the video.

[@kdwithgoodhair5451]

Jorge Rezende exactly

[@whathappenedtoearth6495]

Same. Craps all over the other version (imo).

[@wenghouchan3270]

Totally agree. Love this version much more.

[@mrrousey]

This song reminds me of my life, my wife,....We met in Utah, she was from boston, she stole my heart and went back to boston....I followed... After getting here I found out my mom had cancer and lost her battle five years ago....Boston was a new beginning to my life. Boston is now my home

[@orbitingdecay6797]

Hope you're well and doing OK all these years later. Very sorry for your loss. I lost my mum recently to cancer.

[@janelin8334]

I am very sorry for your loss and hope you have a very great life. Peace and love.

[@melindamaria5745]

Sorry for your loss ❤ my mom is now battling stage 4 lung cancer, this song made me cry thinking about her 😢

[@mrrousey]

@Melinda Maria My heart goes out to you. It's been a long time and still love this song for the same reason. Hugs to you.

[@36isnotold]

Such a romantic idea to pick up and move somewhere, to start over with someone in a new place . But sooner, rather than later, you'd realize you're still you and you can't run away from yourself no matter how much you need to. Gotta love the irony.

[@oldaccount5398]

I never thought about it like that...

[@tristiancromwell2449]

Jessie Steele

[@paulaxavier2]

I think that's why I love this song, an idea to get rid of everything and start over, but we know that in real life is not quite like that.

[@kingzan1526]

Stacy Steele agree

[@hunterbelch2524]

when i packed up and moved i didn't end up the same person. i was so much better. i thought shed love it. changing was the problem tho. college and job promotions, sobriety. things i thought she wanted for me. guess not. 5yrs down the drain. so then i moved again. back to the old me. self destructive habits and all. she said she misses that. she would have stayed with that guy. this guy is killing me. but theres nowhere to go but forward.

[@holysinnerxxx]

Holy hell after all of these years, I thought this was the original version! I just saw the original version and I cant stand it lol. Thanks for producing this version that I always find myself back to several times per month.

[@KrisFong76]

holysinnerxxx everytime i looked for it i always found the original.. finally found what iv been looking for.

[@kdwithgoodhair5451]

holysinnerxxx me too

[@joshuagallagher3438]

I heard this version first so i consider this the original. Glad i finally found it

[@loganbruecher7976]

Totally agree! Same here

[@youareemailingcamilleatgma941]

Same exact thought: cannot stand it. LOL. I thought 0.75 playback speed was gonna do the trick but nope. Could not finish the songggg then good thing I thought of adding the word "slow" when I searched for the song and TA DA! Never went back to listen to the original version again. Haha

[@RinseNHold]

This song is amazing. It's the perfect ballad to the loneliness we ironically all feel in the moments we forget ourselves and our blessings. It is a tribute to the human condition and a subtle push telling us to care for others, but just as importantly, ourselves. What a great composition. Makes me tear up every time I hear it, even if nothing sad in particular comes to mind. Good work on the video. Be safe, be well.

[@JappethBen]

The memories of this song during my college days! When I have to move away from my home town and learn to live somwhere else.. Learn to deal with different and new people.. I remember listening to this song until i fall asleep..

[@JappethBen]

2019 and beyond! Still one of the best songs ever!

[@viktorisakov9698]

Best song ever!! Nothing more to say

[@sherwinrapada7354]

2020 and still listening to this great piece amid the corona virus pandemic crisis.💗

[@jethawyn]

The piano in the beginning makes me teary and gives me the goosebumps.

[@erniebeavers7334]

Me too.

[@johndrie22]

2019 and still my favorite song.

[@amansahani2001]

It’s 2020💙

[@Sejuani89]

2021 and still my fave

[@aaneikaas]

2024💜

[@khy1147]

It’s been 17 years since I first listened to this song and it still touches my heart

[@Pwop_]

I find this song more relatable as I’ve gotten older. Originally from Boston,I lost my mom and both grandmothers in the last few years and have grown less connected with my remaining family. Graduating college while battling depression and trying to live through a pandemic made every day difficult. Love comes when we least expect it and when we need it most though, as I met my soulmate during the start of lockdowns for COVID and for months we talked everyday unable to meet as she’s from Texas and we spent months being thousands of miles apart. Eventually we were finally able to meet and cement our feelings in person. My mother was the person in my life who I felt understood me emotionally the best and always felt really misunderstood with the family I have left. I felt it was a good time as I got vaccinated and graduated college to take the type of leap of faith this song gets at and packed my life up and flew one way to see my partner and it was the best decision of my life. I’ve never felt so understood or accepted by anyone the way her and her family do. Sometimes in life we do need to find space to grow, and it feels fulfilling to take my life into my own hands and start something fresh where nobody knows my name and I get an opportunity to be judged based on what I’ve done, not a perceived notion of who I am.

[@iAdrian_]

IT'S 2017 AND THIS STILL IS MY FAVORITE SONG

[@jassie8943]

It's been 8 years already.... Anyone still listening to this in 2017?

[@badmanners7078]

I will always be listening. Close your eyes and let this song take you away.

[@alexlanto8010]

listening to this and realizing how much time has passed and I'm still stuck in Fayetteville, North Carolina. Wish I could go back to Chicago where I was born..

[@jassie8943]

Alex Lanto I feel u

[@alexlanto8010]

Jastine Gem Tato where are you stuck and where would you like to go?

[@ValenceLim]

Yes still alive..

[@TenzinRigsang]

Still the no 1 song on my playlist

[@marisolacosta6752]

I never can dedicate this song to someone, because it's beautiful and always to listen, reminds me to myself in at moment of my life thats found myself. I think that is part of me

[@alexisotero1]

SPOTIFYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY !!

[@ronik54]

This particular version has instantly calmed both of my children as infants. Thank you!

[@bernadethdiazrn3744]

2019 still my favorite song...

[@mikeewol]

I always come back to this song, it brings out my deepest feelings, there's so much emotion on it asdfghjkk 😍😢

[@daan8336]

This song describes exactly how I felt when I moved from South America to Europe. Alone and only 18 years, leaving it all behind to go where no one even cared, where no one knew my name...

[@cloudsurfer311]

2022 & still one of my all time favs!!! "Carry all your thoughts across an open field....when the flowers gaze at you, they're not the only ones who cry when they see you" My Mom passed away on Christmas Eve 21 years ago, I was just 20 & she was 40. I have to carry all my thoughts across the open field to where she's buried.

[@MonsieurBlaya]

One of the bests songs (and beautiful video) ever. Thank you for uploading it and letting us enjoy, cry,... :)

[@runbabyrunable]

one of the most impressive songs! makes me wanna cry every time I hear it! Love the piano!!

[@chillb3ats]

i love how so many of us are seeking solace in boston. after 5 years of waiting i'm finally moving in june:)

[@reegggg]

Still brings memories the time i heard this song. Grade school to High school ! Much had passed, memories and people alike.

[@stratavan]

The only song that makes me goosebumps at least a minute. Such a wonderful piece by Augustana.

[@andypro]

Best version of Boston!

[@bluesman341]

I'm from Boston-born and raised.--You will love it.- there is no other place like it.-I hope you like it.

[@amzyangel92]

That intro.. *CHILLS* ,, this song melts my heart every time..

[@alexbaird8321]

Love this song, hate that I can’t find this version ANYWHERE except for KZbin.

[@Beige_1010]

while i was re watching big bang theory i came across this one episode where Leonard sings a song and i thought to myself that song is very familiar, then i realized moments later its one of my favorite song way back 2008 that i use to sing all day this is the song boston, what a nostalgia now i miss my childhood and im reminiscing all of those days, this song is gold for me.

[@rnjpdrew]

still listening 0f this song ❤️ 2021 ❤️

[@Suziee626]

Always going to be one of my fav❤️

[@florencekwok4926]

After all these years, and this never fails to bring you back to me.

[@dreamynights]

I was looking for Boston on Spotify because it was one of my favorite songs on my old computer. I hadnt heard the song in a while and the song I kept finding, also Boston by Augustana just wasn't the same! It was weirdly fast, chorus was different and I just didnt like it since I'm used to this slow version. I'm glad I found it here so I can listen to it and its so much better!

[@c.m.2967]

I seem to listen to this song when I'm going through life changes. I picture myself going to Boston to get away from it all, heck I'm a Canadian and this song makes me wanna go to Boston to find clarity. Lol lol such a great song.

[@tamarabrunozzi8482]

I view this as running towards something…not away from anything. I’m making a huge move from east to NM! This song has always been an inspiration to me. Ty!!!!

[@rhonnn_]

feel in love with this song back in 2007. so much nostalgia

[@MyCookieRomance]

I like this version much better than the original. This was the first version I heard.

[@machadoese]

got the chance to see this band live twice, simply amazing! my favorite band.

[@love4sweetz573]

i love Boston i visit when ever i can but every time i hear this song all i can think of is my memories of going to fenway park

[@Woodrokiro]

This song (especially this version) makes me want to cry... But it's so beautiful I don't want to stop listening.

[@glenvilla3127]

oh gosh I'm having teary eyes while i was listening to this beautiful song.. huhu

[@Whodat__whodat]

[Verse 1] In the light of the sun, is there anyone? Oh it has begun Oh dear you look so lost, eyes are red and tears are shed This world you must've crossed You said [Chorus] You don't know me, you don't even care, oh yeah And you said You don't know me, and you don't wear my chains... oh yeah [Verse 2] Essential yet appealed Carry all your thoughts Across an open field When flowers gaze at you They're not the only ones Who cry when they see you Oh, you said [Chorus] You don't know me, you don't even care, oh yeah Well you said You don't know me, and you don't wear my chains... oh yeah [Bridge] She said I think I'll go to Boston I think I'll start a new life I think I'll start it over, where no one knows my name I'll get out of California, I'm tired of the weather I think I'll get a lover and fly him out to Spain Oh yeah and I think I'll go to Boston I think that I'm just tired I think I need a new town, to leave this all behind I think I need a sunrise, I'm tired of the sunset I hear it's nice in the summer, some snow would be nice Oh yeah [Chorus] You don't know me, and you don't even care, oh yeah [Outro] Boston Where no one knows my name Where no one knows my name Where no one knows my name, yeah Boston Where no one knows my name

[@jbernal682]

[@mpoindex1]

chesterneil seriously!!! How can I get this on iTunes?! Someone help!

[@justins7711]

This was actually the first version I ever heard, before the actual album came out. No idea where it came from, but I have a burned CD from LONG ago that is a 4--5 song EP or maybe some kind of demo with only this version. When the album came out with the faster version I was so bummed.

[@PunkShinobi93]

Found this again on 2020

[@meriamefbarreto5781]

My favourite music video for this song

[@bananasarecool123]

brings me to tears.

[@e.invertmedia1578]

Hats off to the version of me that came first... I guess i'll always finish last. But that's okay, I knew happiness. Now I at least have something to stive for... Its crazy... I spent my whole life wishing to be older... Now im cursed with looking back on younger years wishing I had never gotten my wish.

[@iNamanVerma]
