LYRICS:
Jumpin’ right off the edge
Freedom, it’s freedom
Wouldn’t do it for less
Then freedom, freedom
I was sleeping, divin’
Eyes closed, blinded
Now for the first time
I can see
Sometimes I gotta pinch myself
Oh, gorgeous
Hello today
Well let me introduce myself
Oh, gorgeous
Hello today, Hello today, Hello today
Gorgeous
All those days that passed me by
I can’t believe I’m still alive
They say you need the dark to shine
It’s like I can see for the first time
And it’s gorgeous
I can see it for miles
Freedom, I can feel it
No more living denial
See it, breathe it

Seriously one of the most under appreciated songs in this fire album

[@noahbrown1189]

It is one of the least viewed on the album on KZbin. I honestly think this is one of the best ones on the album!

That second drop is hands down the best I've heard in any song what

[@ianmcdonald9233]

"they say you need the dark to shine" oh God that meaning full for me😫

[@kommuniztgaemer322]

came across this just as the song said that

[@BatmanHQYT]

Best non-single from the album. The rock influence on these tracks really elevates them to a new level, and I love the pre-choruses in this song ("all the days that pass me by") as much as the drops since the transition from that 2000s-rock style to the powerful synths works so well. First drop hits hard as fuck courtesy of Blanke and the second one is so triumphant and full of life. The vocals are also excellent, I didn't expect Bipolar Sunshine to go so well with this kind of song but it really works.

[@telephonontv]

Those Blanke section killed it for me, unfortunately. It's that "standard midtempo drop" section.

[@BatmanHQYT]

@@telephonontv I dunno, I thought it sounded really fresh and memorable compared to the hundreds of 1788-L ripoffs out there

[@telephonontv]

@@BatmanHQYT What I wanted: a story driven version of Gorgeous, like Dabin's take on of Afterlife, where it's an actual journey, than this midtempo section only and nothing else. If you wanna go there, at least be like the Sam Lamar remix of Pray or for Midtempo style, be like Hunter Sigel's remix of One By One, where it's mature and fits this song for me. Point is, I'm a fan of shit like this because it's not overdone and unique. Blanke offside midtempo stuff has been interesting with that said.

[@alucvrdmusicbeatsandremixe2172]

The first drop hits you hard in the face The second drop hits you hard in emotions. This whole song just hits hard in general. Love this one

[@jomangrabx]

I love how Blanke becomes the dark part of the song and Illenium become the lights! Very good contrast

[@GHOSTDATA]

Ironically enough, they both put equal time and sound design in the second drop, it's a perfect blend of both styles

[@icyfrog]

"they say you need the dark to shine"

[@parthapratimhalder4888]

Absolutely 😌😌😌😌

[@djcosmix]

3 years since this came out and it's still better than a majority of new music coming out today

[@PutBarny]

@Screaming Inkling +1

[@paulhk2727]

I think the point of this song isn't, as many believe, about someone gorgeous, but about the experience of "waking up" from a time of difficulty into freedom, and recognizing how gorgeous the feeling of freedom can be after overcoming bad or meaningless times.

[@bgggaming9721]

There's not a whole lot of music producers out there, that I can say that I like almost every single song they release, but Illenium is one of the very few on my list where I can say that. Illenium is the man, hands down! Great work once again.

[@lama0music]

I think for me its only illenium who's every song i can listen to on repeat till the day i die

[@aidandpolonsky]

This is as close to perfect as a piece of art can get. Quite possibly my favorite song of all time.

[@vohas2691]

100 days sober. I wasted 15 years of my life under the influence of substances, and I got really bad with alcohol. Drinking liters at a time, driving drunk like an idiot. This song hits home for what it feels like to be free of the demon. I have no urges and even when life is down, I don't think twice about drinking. It feels gorgeous! "All those days that passed me by, I can't believe I'm still alive"

[@craigpodsprojames2500]

yo bro I just wanted to say I hope you're still on track. keep going because you're better :)

[@vohas2691]

@@craigpodsprojames2500 230 days and counting. It's been easy but yesterday I actually had the thought that I miss drinking. It's not worth the health problems and stupid actions I make while intoxicated though. Thanks for the kind words!

i love this song so much. makes me think about my recovery from depression.

[@Professorsnype]

Congrats!!🎈

[@aashhofficial]

Glad you recovered ❤

[@victoriacurrier8813]

I shared the same thoughts! I thought this song was about coming out of a state of depression. Saying that it feels like freedom and it's gorgeous. And the lyrics "they say you need the dark to shine" kinda points it out a little bit. And then "I can't believe I'm still alive" is a statement of overcoming depression and suicidal ideations. Just my thoughts :) glad you've recovered and are still with us! 💕
