I watched all 4 seasons of Shameless in a couple of days and now I am at 4.11. This song made me cry so much, man I am in love with this show.

[@redneck69695]

Wow same😢

[@claymang]

I watched this video and listened to this on repeat a LOT when I was on heroin. I've been clean for about a decade, now, and I can finally listen to it again without it feeling strange. Still speaks to me, but for very different reasons. Feels good. Feels free. Thank you.

[@RyanEschbach]

Yeah man, me too, proud of you

[@jay_frmdahtrenches3]

Wowwwww..... This is SOOOOO POWERFUL!!!!!❤

Portugal, you really are the man

[@sleepstatemusic]

Do ya ever think they named themselves that just so that compliment was preloaded? hahaha either way-well played portugal!

I really don't understand why this band is so underrated! They are genius, a true masterpiece! I am truly obsessed with this band! There are few things that can compare to this!

[@SkateNCreate90]

I remember listening to this song while I was in college and thinking to myself... how hasn't a large audience found this band yet? I can only hope that with the huge audience the have now that they come across their old gems like this one.

[@cherchehacknostale]

I did. Now I prefer their old songs over their new ones ahah

[@Cavemanner]

I definitely found them through Feel It Still, but In The Mountain, In The Cloud is by far my favorite album of theirs. So glad they got the exposure they did so we could experience everything they've had to offer over the years. Still excited for new music though!

[@NoNameNo.5]

Why did the hipster burn his mouth? Because he ate his pizza before it was even cool!

[@jeffreychase692]

Saw them at Bonnaroo years ago and they absolutely destroyed. Great times

[@sweethope1095]

It’s my first year at college this year and I just found this. Time is crazy isn’t it

[@BiggieBibs]

Unbelievably beautiful at times, downright appalling at other occasions. Life, being this constant flow of conflicting emotions can be quite overwhelming. Its ok to feel like sleeping forever sometimes. Getting rid of the 'void', "the emptiness" can be easier than finding something to fill it. But its also important to remember that by doing so, you would be missing out on a whole spectrum of wonderful things that one can witness by simply enjoying being alive. Finding a purpose for life may seem like such a difficult task that it causes people to overlook one of the simplest answers: To live. To live and enjoy your life so when the time comes for you to "become the light, and finally sleep forever", you "won't be scared, won't defend the things you've done, nor you'll fear him like they do" because you truly enjoyed you ride the best way you could.

[@DMatt343]

That's beautiful, man.

My dog passed away about 3 days ago. This video helped so much to almost be a voice for him to speak to me from beyond the grave. Thank you so much for all you put together John.

[@meispink]

The cinematography looks absolutely amazing.

[@robgeist5315]

This song actually makes me not as afraid of eternity in darkness.

[@followjesus3891]

Not feeling anything is the same as if we never existed, there's nothing so theres no pain too, but experiencing this life has to have a somewhat like a treasure pack or a key to the next level.

[@Jayyhawwk]

It's like before you were born. You weren't conscious to the darkness. Whatever our soul does in the wherever, it's anyone's guess.

[@Jayyhawwk]

@@followjesus3891 it's definitely about learning and our soul growing. Or it's just a crazy computer simulation lol. Doubtful it's the latter.

[@Joex532]

A strange sense of euphoria fills me when I listen to this song... I can't even describe it. It's like I'm wonderfully alone in my own mind and I am the only me.

[@shadysack9884]

I get that feeling its why I love music.

[@WaLoR]

What a masterpiece I can imagine a huge music video contains the entire album 'In the Mountain in the Cloud' 🤯It would be awesome

[@scrimmybingus1118]

first time i heard this song was from this video my cousin showed it to me, then very next day while smoking with my group of friends i put this on and we watched in awe together. this song came onto my spotify today through shuffle and it transported me back to a much simpler and easier time in my life.

Portugal. The Man brought me here, isn't that enough?

[@MinnesotaLG]

I remember listening to this song the night before my first day of high school simply because I didn’t want to wake up and have to go to school, im 21 now and this song means so much more to me now than that, it’s got a different vibe to it than it did when I was 14. Still love this song and come back to it once in a while.

[@CantStopMeBiotch]

Technically speaking, the last 3 Portugal. The Man videos I watched eventually brought me here... I was just along for the ride.

[@gent9358]

11:43 I don't know why but the lights on the mountains feel so haunting.

It is haunting. The mountains at night, when there's nobody for miles and miles, sometimes look alive.

[@Icanhackyou345]

I came for the name Portugal, I stay forever.

[@Paperbagman555]

Been 7 years since this came out and it remains their best song (or at least my favourite).

[@musiicxlover93]

[@notdenjii]

Yeah you have. :] Enjoy yourself. :]

[@thestarsof2012]

I felt the same

[@animalsmistakenformonsters1492]

And every album is different. In fact they all were in another group "Anatomy of a Ghost" and it was a screamo band.

[@NaomiGomez1982]

sometimes you just need to shut your eyes close and dream away the worries of the world. To wander in the unconscious mind where everything seems gray and pause in the middle of life... This song is my drug...

[@gabethelen7970]

It just hit me how much Sleep Forever means to me. I've played it a million times and I know every single lyric and note. I don't know where I'd be without this song. Thanks L.O.P for making such a powerful song.

[@mwitters1]

Great NW rock, I was blessed growing up in Seattle in the 90s and 00s. Such incredibly good music has been pouring out the entire northwest region for decades. I can't imagine a better place for a music fan to be from. EVERYONE comes through Seattle ;) As for PTM, John hasn't gotten even close to the amount of credit he deserves. What a vocalist.

[@campbellwaldron-smith7149]

I love the little section of chords that kick in around 7:45!

[@jordanmayer5932]

I can't believe this is one of their earlier songs, its so complex and well recorded.

[@PoptartReveloution]

Not to early. There first album aired around 06, where as in the mountain in the cloud came out No More than 3 years ago. Either way, songs cool af

[@jordanmayer5932]

UltraSpookySoup True i totally forgot about their first EP. either way, the production value for this album which i still consider early in their career due to it being 2015, and not to mention these guys are definitely going to continue on with creating masterpieces, is amazing, this song and video is just perfect.

[@googleplusrapedme9227]

This isn't earlier. This was like their 5th or 6th album.....Closer to now than it was to the beginning of their career.
