Noah and the Whale - 5 Years Time - Official

[@Stressymessy]

A boy that I thought I loved sent me this video when I was 16. when I watched it again in my early twenties I thought wow 5 years really has passed fast. listening to it again at 30, 5 years over, it just hits different. If you are reading this, my advice to you is to embrace aging because time only speeds up, enjoy every moment, don't live in the past, embrace the present!

[@ruferd]

One of the best aspects of YT, is being able to go back to old jams that you love and have a special memory for. And then you get to read comments from hundreds of others who have their own special memories of the same song. And we're all just here vibing and remembering together. A collective nostalgia...

[@james_solo]

This song came out when I was in college crushing on this guy friend. There was always sun sun sun. Now we're 10 years married and expecting our 5th baby! I always hum this when we're taking all our babies to the zoo and there's love in the bodies of the elephants too. So glad I still knew him in 5 years time and hopefully in 50 also.

6 years ago I tried to take my own life. I was only 23 at the time, but I was doing a chef apprenticeship and was disillusioned because I had realized I made too many mistakes in my life to turn things around. Fast forward 6 years, I’d finished that apprenticeship but left the chef life behind, along with the alcoholism and daily self-inflicted injuries like casually slicing my fingers and rubbing salt in them just to keep myself awake. I can’t say I’m doing any better now, since all my friends are getting married and moving on with their lives, and for me, I’ve barely made it this far. But someday, I hope I can find out how it feels to be loved, and to be proud of myself. Not today, but someday. And if I can do it, you sure as heck can too.

[@jamesmckean3221]

[@TheRABIDdude]

When I was in my first relationship, this song always felt like it was about my girlfriend. I knew we might not last forever, we might go our separate ways, but whatever happened she'd bring joy wherever she went. 5 years later, I no longer know her, we no longer talk, and it all rings true as ever :)

This kid in my class was singing this today and he seemed so happy singing it that i had to listen to it :)

[@pixelpancake2464]

I only discovered this song the other day when my dad showed it to me. It made me feel nostalgic somehow, felt like the exact kind of music I'd listen to when I was 10 and only discovered new songs through soundcloud. The trouble started five years ago at the beginning of the pandemic. I had just turned thirteen and it was the first big fight me and my group of best friends ever had. We've known each other for three years at the least, over a decade at the most depending on who and who. Then I was ousted from our group and had to find new friends elsewhere. Ended up falling in love and having my heart broken twice over and going through major psychosis and delusion. We eventually reconnected after a year or two after, a few months before restrictions lightened up and we were able to hangout in person again. We were 14 or 15 then. We did a lot of cool teen stuff we always wanted to do- Bought skateboards, went ice skating at 'our' mall, saw movies in theaters, started playing D&D. I thought I had gotten wiser and more mature, realized to take more care in how we treat each other. But it seems like we didn't, not really. We ended up in another big fight again almost a year ago. Right before my 17th birthday. It always seems to happen around my birthday. There had been a noticeable distance between all of us and our group chat was dead most of the time. Me and my longest-running best friend managed to get into a call together once and we commiserated about the radio silence. Eventually leading us into the days-long text conversation that ended the friend group. We promised to stick by each other no matter what, that we were each other's BFF. But now it's been over two months since we've had proper, consistent conversation. She's ghosted me this entire time. I've talked to her mom more than her. And it blows. We were planning on going to a music show together. And conventions. And do so much. I wish I had the wisdom of this song back then five years ago. It would have helped me so much. Make it a lot easier to know. In five years time, I might not know you. In five years time, we might not speak. In five years time, we might not get along. It was the end of the h gang. The door for everyone else has closed, but hopefully in five years time she might just prove me wrong.

[@DrivingonSepulveda2]

16 years time more like it. I have fond memories of seeing this band at SXSW when this song had just hit, and in many ways, this song feels still like it just came out. Frozen in 2008, I can still see my ex riding her bike away from the bar. I can smell her perfume and the gasoline and exhaust of my truck as i pull away in to traffic knowing that she’s moved on, and the next man who finds her will know too what a prize she is. Wherever she goes, there’ll be love.

[@becbekkette]

I've listened to this song for years, but never actually watched the music video until now. Oh my goodness, haha it reminds me of Wes Anderson (and Moonrise Kingdom with those yellow outfits, which is weird because MK came out in 2012) baha. That was great. Charming.

What makes this song so great is that it ISN'T edited. Why should people have to change what they sound like, just because everyone else does it? I think the decision to not use auto-tune is a fresh relief from everything else we're surrounded with. This is real people, singing with their real voices, and I'M LOVING IT.

[@raikirat8290]

Accidentally bumped on this song today. And guess what, it is about 5 years time since I first heard this song in my dorm room. I used to wonder if I will ever make it out of university alive and make something out of my useless ass. Too much stress and pressure. And, Yes I did. Memories flood in, bad and good. After all, life is beautiful after all. Never give up.

[@sabhay7746]

I first heard this song 4 and a half years ago, going through my first heartbreak as an 18 year old during the Pandemic. At that time I really hoped that in 5 years time me and her would still be friends, that’s not the case at all, but it doesn’t matter because life moved on after the pandemic. 2 years ago I met this girl, a poetic genius who carried her heart on her sleeve, had so much more courage than me, was beautiful beyond words. Within a week she told me she loved me. Soon she was the love of my life, we lived together for 2 years, had so much fun, sun and love, and smoked way too many stupid little cigarettes together, but within a year we had a lot of fights and differences too. After Uni ended she moved out for her post grad, and I moved back home, and soon after she broke up with me for pretty understandable reasons, we were just not working out, I had become completely ambition less and we used to fight more often than loving each other. I still love and miss her to bits, and these last 2 months without her have felt like hell. But life goes on. I’m 22 now, and I hope to return to this song in 5 years time when I’m 27 and finally have my life together. When I’m finally fit after a lifetime of being overweight, when I’ll be a Video producer like I always wanted to be, when I’ve travelled the length and breadth of India on my bike and run countless marathons. And while I know that the relationship ended on not so good terms, and we don’t talk as of now, and we probably will never be friends again, but I really hope that she “might just prove me wrong” and we’ll get along, spending a day in the sun in 5 years time. Take care S, I know you’ll spread love wherever you go! Fellow commenters, do remind me to come back to this in 5 years time ❤

[@legslou2]

Found this song funny, how my girlfriend and I were just sitting listening to songs, talking about how we had been together for 5 years on April the 4th. This song came on, and we actually laughed at how I used to steal wine from my parents wine cabinet, and we'd sit in the park drinking and smoking cigarettes. Because that was what we needed to have a good time. ^_^
