Give me this song on a loop, a beach, and a lawn chair and say goodbye. You’ll never see me again. Arms folded behind my head and forever lost in complete thought and relaxation.

Dad I will always love you

I haven't listened to this song for 10 years. Thats bring some good memories. I was so young. At that time I lived at the heart of Siberia - Novosibirsk. In winter I came for New Year's holidays to Ulan-Ude as usual - to my hometown near lake Baikal and spend time with my friends. We were filming some stupid shit, I tried to make horror-movie, we were laugh so much, had a lot of fun. Even the temperature -30 C did not interfere with filming. We still close friends, but nowadays everyone left Ulan-Ude and now they have dispersed to the cities of Russia. We finished that film, and I think we became so close cause of this wannabe filmakers things. And there where that song by explosions in the sky. And now I listen and remember that short winter days, this frozen camera, laughing, drinking beer, and being so happy together.

This song comes to us when we need it, it’s beautiful

[@buhryin314]

One of my favorite songs growing up. As a teen I was heavily into instrumental music. This awakens so many emotions and has the same effect on me years later. Hauntingly beautiful.

[@hardeatieasri2651]

I always listen to this song whenever i think of my father. It's been 5 years now, he's gone Today is his birthday so i play this song just to rewind all the good memories of him

[@mohamedsalioubangoura3113]

Mine gone for near 12 years now ,in Décember 24 2010 he died that make me i were 11 years old i am like i was hited by a truck ,this tragedy made me other thin g i don't even know how to explain it.

[@cranjismcbasketball6671]

Rest in peace 🙏 I never knew mine cherish 💖 those memories.

[@cheshirekitty4379]

Mine died when I was 10 on the 31st of December. I know how you feel, just like you said it's pretty hard to explain it by words. Still, I feel like when people have gone through such experiences they can relate to others who have gone through similar things. Both of our fathers may be gone from this world, but they'll always be in our memories. Wish you the best❤

[@philipbill7309]

eits and this album helped me through my teens, my 20's and now in my 30's its a great source of meditation and direction - helpful to recycle and recenter with their music - it's always been a light in the dark

[@RajaKhan-tf8wt]

I hope everyone missing their Dad today can find solace and peace in the beautiful memories they left behind. Love you Dad, and thanks for always being there, you are missed every single day

[@Nick-cp8wf]

My father passed away 12 years ago. Passed away when i was a young man. Never met him as an adult and young child life wasnt perfect, but.. i still loved him and was a fan of his growing up. Always thinking of him and looking for him when i was out and about. I forget its fathers day because i didnt have one in my life much, its by chance i thought of this song after not listening for over 10 years and realizing today is fathers day at the same time. Pretty cool coincidence... or id like to think, maybe more.

[@IceCold8423]

this song always trolls me at 3:12, when I’m driving. Has me looking out all my windows for an ambulance like “i swear I heard sirens..”

[@ahdnoh]

Yes. So true.

[@timt183]

Biggest memory I have of listening to this one was when I had the album on my old iPod Shuffle stick during a long distance bike camping trip. We rode a 30+ mile limestone gravel trail to a beachfront here in West Michigan. Despite it being a very popular beachfront, we managed to sneak in after dark and camp on an unmaintained private beach just beyond the private beach sign where no one bothered us. No one brought a tent, we foolishly thought we could just sleep on the beach with no bag or anything. I remember listening to this in my headphones while trying to sleep with a backpack over my head, using a work polo as a tiny blanket, all to avoid the sand that the wind was needling into my face and arms. I eventually dozed for an hour or two until I woke up to notice a thunderstorm in the direct center of the horizon, growing in size on both sides at about the same rate;. It was coming right for us.

[@Eriatarka]

Just like the song

[@Flip194]

I love reading this type of stories, knowing other people have strong memories with this song like I do, yet totally different from mine. Thank you for sharing!

One of my favorite songs.

Happy 20th anniversary!!

[@Roslerox]

Used to watch FNL with my mom. EITS was my fav.

[@codymarsh3003]

my tears fall just the same as when i first heard this many of years ago , so much emotion

[@Eriatarka]

It doesn’t evoke tears with me, but a deep sense of humanity, and the state of things make me very sad

[@eudreihermoso8871]

Another eargasm agaaaaaiiinnn!!! Thank you EITS!!! Hoping for more musics again!!

[@FrxBass]

It was released 20 years ago, what a masterpiece.. brings back so much memories

Dang bro you said it

[@arnydiablo6205]

Thanks for the emotional piece 😢 😪 Makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside with the raw emotions expressed through music. Because of the title, I miss the times I shared with my dad...he is still alive, but we usually always fight. We fought one day, and I left home. We are still in touch. We are now on talking terms. Actually, for a while now. I wish we could be friends in this lifetime 🤞I love you, baba...you worked hard to give me a good and relatively easy life. I thank you for that...

[@adam88X237]

This is it. The song

[@JD-86-Eight_Zero]

Michael James inspired me to play the style of bass guitar that I play. This was the song that lit the spark. Thank you Michael.

Me encanta este tema!!!!!.

Beautiful, Pink Floydesques....

[@chrondongo4112]

Ahhhh..........the peak of melodramatic instrumental rock........could it be better? No, I think not.

[@boijorzee]

For me personally this is this is the peak of the genre. It may well be produced in a pretty crappy way and it isn't exactly a tour de force when it comes to musical craft either. But you can sense the earnest raw emotion from which the track was born. You hear a band that is conveying pretty heavy feelings trough their instruments without using too many tricks and polish. No other track in the genre hits me harder then this one.

[@TheNathanmnelson]

100%

[@arnydiablo6205]

Pure raw emotions! Amen to that...

Yeah this song is so good. The guitars are amazing but when the drums hit at midpoint, that blew me away. Explosions are so musically talented

[@alexturner1945]

Indeed my friend

[@quesquadroSACqqq]

It’s funny how most of the people in the comment section listened to it years ago and just rediscovered this masterpiece. I was listening to this whole album nonstop around 5 years ago and it’s weird how I completely forgot about existence of it, despite the large amount of related memories

[@ILogan-wr4zt]

Keep your memories close and Dads closer. You don’t know the next time you’ll ever be able to hug them and tell em you love them
