Explosions In The Sky - "Postcard From 1952" music video (HD)

[@xantiherox]

My best friend showed me this song a week before he died in a car crash in 2013. I still come back to this song once a year to commemorate him.

[@dcmushi]

xantiherox :(

[@jch9x9]

hey buddy, i feel your loss comrade. What's his name? and the date? i'll watch the video along with you every year in your friends name.

[@ciupenhauer]

losses, just like the great moments, we carry on remembering alone. I'm glad there's somebody left to remember him, and you should too

[@lilix2594]

He is always with you through this piece of art and through your memories. I Wish you everything good, beautiful human being.

[@wallace92]

Eu vi que você é brasileiro. Nossa mano, que história! Como disse o Jason Hoyt em resposta há um mês atrás, eu também vou assistir todos anos agora no sentido do seu amigo interessante que eu conheci esse som quando seu amigo deve ter conhecido, em 2012 sinto muito pela falta que sente

[@candradayu5718]

the best music video i've ever seen in my life

[@kaijubushi151]

Yes.

[@dharm23]

I feel like a kid again when I watch this :D ya'll remember how good those days where when everything was so new to us?!?

[@Wacklewis]

3:18 til 6:18 is possibly the greatest piece of song writing ever. God I love this song!

[@andrewlivingston2864]

I'm a grown man and I can't watch this without crying. Why

[@BigIrishMan1972]

Chad Johnson b/c you have a heart and soul. Nothing to be ashamed of.

[@Reivivus]

Real men cry when it matters.

[@Lucait]

same dude,same

[@sandraberti352]

Me too...💔

[@RockonMarketingTV]

me too....! ethereal and nostalgic melodies and pictures.

[@abdnafees]

This reminds me that life is not small. We don't cherish our memories and moments. Those little things.... always the little things. Only they matter. Fuck they are awesome.

[@MichaelB-ug9rs]

Why do I feel nostalgia and longing for a time I didn't even live through? And why am I crying?

[@Lucait]

i want to cry of happyness and sadness at the same time

[@ryancarr5756]

Seven straight minutes of chills.

[@crosstolerance]

+Ryan Carr What an amazing feeling it is!

[@DiaVaza]

Songs like this always makes me feel nostalgic. Explosions In The Sky is amazing!

[@s36138]

Explosions in the sky just keeps getting better (:

[@Jardermorder]

I've never been so emotionally overwhelmed by any other piece of music. I really hope they'll play this song when I go to watch them live this February. Let the crying games begin

[@bensadikin9513]

This song alone conveys so many messages that leaves the listener to interpret it themselves... Slow-mo moments, people growing old, happiness found in the tiniest fraction of time, children's innocence i love it all :)

[@kae9341]

My hubbie and I had this played for our wedding last year. I feel like it explains how it feels about him better than I could ever put into words...

[@squall26]

I like to think, if my life was a movie, this would be the soundtrack of my happiest moments.

[@nitrix_3931]

how do u feel?

[@stevenneufeld1285]

Absolutely breathtaking. Explosions in the Sky is truly the best

[@nitrix_3931]

still alive?

[@FruitsFantasyKingdom]

I literally can't get enough of this video. I've watched it maybe 10 times and shown it to everyone I know. 5:11-end is my favorite part. SO MANY CHILLS! The lighting, the framing, the film effects, and the symbolism is just breathtaking. Simply cinematic perfection.

[@MisterArgos]

This is damn beautiful. Real music still exists and is a treat to those who still think. Amazing!

[@nitrix_3931]

damn time goes by.

[@estebankid10]

This is the only music video I've ever seen really worth watching. I usually find music videos completely pointless but this is something else.

[@MikusMustang]

+Esteban blank you should watch more videos

[@Sara90C]

This band is perfect. Absolutely sublime. Every single song is overwhelming. Warms my heart.

[@DecentGatsby]

This video is so amazing. I love Explosions, I can't believe I haven't seen this until now. Where have I been? Who am I? What am I even doing with my life? I could've died not knowing about this...

[@sokka06]

I heard this song once and fell instantly in love. It reminds me of this girl, that used live nearby when I was about four years old and she was about the same age. We used to play and ride bikes pretty much everyday, but then her parents decided to move away. She didn't move all that far away, but I haven't seen her since. I think she even was in the same school for a while few years ago. Bunch of other memories came up too. Love it.

[@nitrix_3931]

sokka06 how are you after 10 years?

[@JessSoShutUp]

Ugh 2:53, love love love it. Hands down one of my favorite music videos, it's gorgeous.

[@MaxDavidPaul]

Was walking to collect my results today (got into my uni!!) and I was listening to this song, and for 7 minutes and 7 seconds my anxiety evaporated and everything felt perfect. Thank you EiTS

[@TomasCyr]

Eits is so great at capturing emotion through non vocal story telling, this one is a near tear jerker

[@sonastainbrook]

Just heard this tune yesterday. Unreal! This is a pure masterpiece!

[@gabrielletaco22]

Absolutely breathtaking! Pulled me to tears.

[@2gyllstad]

This is amazing :o It's almost criminal how underrated it is

[@reynaldostufano1109]

Not gonna lie, this is the best musical video I've ever seen.

[@indigopentagram3330]

my eyes watered up when i saw this. i showed to my girlfriend and by the end she was sobbing. explosions in the sky has always been my favorite, since the first time i heard "the only moment we were alone" i knew it was something special

[@annanimal6]

There is something to be said about a song you can listen to while having a very bad headache. I absolutely love this song. Beautiful. Amazing.

[@arifnadeem7]

Starts slow, gains rythm, paces steadily, flies off and finally becomes calm. Wow this songs is ORGASMIC in every sense.

[@TedLillyfan15]

Wow. Wow. wow. At the 5:16 mark, I legitimately couldnt stop crying until the end. Just makes me think of how the beautiful moments of life can be etched forever in photographs, and makes me appreciate even more my own "postcard from the past", a photo of me and my grandfather after I caught my first ever fish at the same time as he got one. He passed less than a year later, but It was one of the proudest moments of my life, and I vividly remember it being taken. This song makes me cherish life.

[@supermanlover81]

AH THIS WILL NEVER STOP BEING GOOD

[@joaorodri0187]

Simplesmente perfeita, meu amigo quem me apresentou e agora eu não consigo ver esse video sem pensar no passado e não chorar, fico feliz por meu amigo ter me mostrado esse video, ter dividido algo assim comigo, ele é um grande amigo, obg Mendel

[@Jojocapalooza]

Explaining the video by itself, it means Postcards in the best way possible. Postcard means memory, and the video shows some memories of 1952. The kids at the sprinkle, playing around in the garden, the girl walking happy, the kids at anniversary, the girl trying to get the bubble, the adults laughting, the couple young and older kissing, everything is managed in a perfect way in this video. The directors, the acting, the perfomance, everything is perfect.

[@nitrix_3931]

u still alive?

[@Jojocapalooza]

@@nitrix_3931 I guess yes

[@MiLadyCutie9]

Genius. Period.

[@Satomorae]

I'm going to show this video to my kids when i get older. Despite the fact it's a music video, it shows how truly happy kids were without all the stimulation of fancy phones, computers, video games, and entertainment via a flashing screen. I miss this so miserably, in the best way possible.

[@nitrix_3931]

its been 10 years how do you feel? r u alive? i hope ur alr

Awsome cameraword, I've not seen this kind of proffessionality so a long time ago. Peter Simonite and Annie Gunn. THANK YOU.

[@petersimonite]

Thank you! I'm glad you like it

[@Timarsson]

Best song ever!!

[@rynslmn]

Look, I’m a serious guy who likes serious things and as a result I’m not often blown away by things that aren't serious but this is just incredible, now I remember what nostalgia is, I feel like a kid again. Thanks for this, really.

[@Tiffmidon]

Tom always has the greatest taste in music. So glad he's just introduced me to this band.

[@brunooliveira-qk6cl]

i cry a lot because this video

[@ceciliocedonoblocnote]

I discorved this video 3 years ago, I watched it a hundred times, but i'm still crying when i watch it xD I'm like discovering it again and there is no word to describe my feelings about this video. It was a comment by a french fan xD

[@muhdafdhal612]

i don't really know what and how to say abt this one, i think that's what makes it beautiful, post rock itself doesn't need any words to explain what's really going on, it just connects with our feelings and we are the creators of our own stories, either it is sad or happy or both or anything, that's what post rock is all about, i mean songs with vocals are great but it just lacks of sincerity and honesty, like we are afraid to express what we truly feel at the moment, and fake it with someone's else voices rather than our own, post rock music makes everything valuable and exquisite.

[@noahgoyette467]

This has me thinking about my grandparents house, in Lowell MA, in 1990, I was 13. They passed just a handful of years later...They were millworkers who married, moved 3 streets down and stayed there til they passed. They were lovely people.

[@fenlow]

i love these kinds of songs that are sort of an experience or a journey

[@fenlow]

smt no i actually haven't heard about them before!! :0 i'll look em up, thanks for the rec!!

[@ruthannegurgangle]

This is SPECIAL. It is beautiful and evocative of a time gone by. I was born in 1951, so I remember the FEELING this portrays with music and video moments in time. I am so glad I saw it!

[@lukazivkovic8069]

This video is perfect fit for this song. I hope that they'll make more music videos. Greetings from Serbia.

[@Acronso]

thank you soo much... this is by far the single best music video I have ever seen. thank you

Ever since this song came out, I don't listen to it non-stop but I always come back to it. This song is my home.

[@MimoFran]

Nunca, nunca me canso ni me cansaré de escucharla

[@MaxCowan89]

Love how this band takes so much time and effort to create quality, moving, artistic videos. I feel like you see that less and less these days.

I can never describe how Explosions in the sky make me feel. I just know it's something really special

[@yukeshrai]

Wow! Simply beautiful.

[@django939]

great official video great post-rock band great number thank you for the uploding

[@wastedaudio]

5:15 feels like fireworks going off inside of me. Just pure exhilaration and euphoria.

[@AIPTutorials]

I can never get over this song. I'm a huge fan of songs that start slow and soft, then build up to a huge crescendo. This song takes that idea and says, "Hold my beer." Whenever you think this song can't possibly build up any more, it does.

[@ClassicMagicMan]

I love E.I.T.S! I stumbled upon this genre *completely* on accident, Before that I didn't even know if such music could even exist! To date this remains one of my favorite music videos I've ever seen....rarely is music this.....enchanting.

[@MissingLeftSock]

I love how often Tom's song of the day repeats ;)

[@lindsey7910]

How I wish for life to be that simple and innocent again. Truly amazing artists.

[@concertedreaction]

this is my favourite video ever. for always.

[@brunomeco]

“You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching, Love like you'll never be hurt, Sing like there's nobody listening, And live like it's heaven on earth.”

[@koooldude7]

I'm so glad they went along with the 1950's theme for this music video. So cool

[@Timarsson]

here we are.. in 2017.. close to 2018 and still listening to this amazing song over and over again! just can't get enough of it honestly

[@stephyalysse]

Another beautiful choice of music for Song of the Day, King Hiddles...So wonderful. Hello Army!!

Argh why does this song make me cry so much D:

[@jobiy1999]

I noticed the birthday boy spitting all over his cake. Thank you slow motion.

[@wwong82]

When I have a bad day, I put on my headphones, close my eyes and listen to this song. I put it on repeat for at least 3 times and my spirit is lifted back up again and I feel everything is going to be alright. :) Thanks, from Sydney, Australia.

[@Zonteck]

It's so nice to see the directors come here and pass along links to a higher quality video. Thanks guys.

[@crazycracker7806]

This video shows how beautiful life in its self is, every single part of it

[@Jacktheraped]

I don't know if it's my morning cup of coffee but I listen to this song every morning to it and I feel that I can accomplish anything just as my cup gets empty.

[@Ayan44]

this is sheer art! a series of emotions rained over me! extraordinary!

[@inyourhonorr]

This video evokes so many different kinds of emotions for me and probably for anyone who watches it. Explosions In the Sky has a way of making people feel the music that they create and not just hear it. If you have ever been to one of their concerts I'm sure you know the feeling.

[@jamiethecoles]

This is so true. I suppose, if and when I have kids, and grandkids, I can relive the wonder through their eyes and learn to become curious again.

[@mattman113093]

This is literally one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. Well done explosions, well done.

[@jongale3]

I have watched this video 100 times and every time for 7 mins i'm lost in a different world.

I can't get enough of this song. I love all their music, but this one is my favorite. The video is beautiful.

[@bombcat9289]

This is the work of human beings at its absolute finest.

[@Mucho-Mango-]

This is why I love instrumental music. Without the distraction of lyrics, you are given the chance to think of anything and everything in life. Some will cry, some will smile. Some may say that this gives them the will to carry on, or believe in love, or something else beautiful. Some may say instrumental music is meaningless because it has no lyrics, but I would say this song speaks so much more to me than any other song I have heard in my life.

[@nickyfandino6442]

Yes finally found a music video of Explosions in the Sky. I've listened to Your Hand in Mine this past 6 month, and always imagine if they make a MV of that song, it would be some sort like this. Peaceful, deep, living slow motion video
