Simply the most beautiful song in the world

[@movierecapverse]

without a doubt.

[@1StarAtlas]

"and as i stood there, looking up at those old wooden gates, tattered and worn by nothing short of time i realized that all of the sounds around me were starting to fade, and even in the distance the silence moved like a Ghostly Spirit to cover the lands with a soft hush, but also with a sort of longing emotion. As the sounds and music and voices rang into the quietness covering all, i began to feel a sadness. An all but infinite emotion came over me slowly, gently, like rain drops from an approaching summer rain as my tears began to fall down through the clouds that we all stood on now. Then i heard a Sound that i had heard so many times before, but couldnt remember when, or where. The Sound of Silence was now upon everything that ever had an ear to hear..." [1] And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. [2] And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.

[@bushwajunior2663]

Agreed. A song straight from the heavens if there ever was one

[@FinlandJaruttjinda]

There is a moment whenever I’m playing this song seems like everything around me is silent just like that

[@noemiaandre9464]

I touch memories of my life before this life, I remember as I'm living now

[@collinwebster291]

If I have only 6 minutes left to live, Id be so content with this song filling that time.

[@lorenschmidgall4797]

Same here

[@Lucasbra1000]

with 3 seconds to contemplate what you've just gone through

[@M.-ny7ku]

You taught me the courage of stars before you left How light carries on endlessly, even after death With shortness of breath You explained the infinite And how rare and beautiful it is to even exist I couldn't help but ask for you to say it all again I tried to write it down, but I could never find a pen I'd give anything to hear you say it one more time That the universe was made just to be seen by my eyes I couldn't help but ask for you to say it all again I tried to write it down, but I could never find a pen I'd give anything to hear you say it one more time That the universe was made just to be seen by my eyes With shortness of breath I'll try to explain the infinite And how rare and beautiful it is to even exist With shortness of breath I'll try to explain the infinite And how rare and beautiful it truly is that we exist

[@JesusismyKingofkings259]

Thanks for posting the words!!! That helped sooo much!!!

[@daniemyburgh7824]

I never got to say good bye to my Dad before he passed away... i feel him close to me with this song. 😢

[@Breno_Teixeira]

Jesus loves you my friend, everything will be fine!🙌🏾🤍

[@Scottslaw]

They are Truly not as far away as it feels 😢

[@YehonatanStein]

Seu comentário fez meus olhos suarem.

[@AnnaNaan-j3f]

Try reading 'Eulogy from a Physicist.' It gives me comfort, I hope you'll find solace in it too. All the best to you.

[@hamilkar15]

Mam podobnie, przyjacielu...😢

[@bluejediforce]

going through a rough time, sitting on my floor, and singing along to this with tears on my face

[@danielbanfield8109]

This deserves 8 billion thumbs up

[@leahstemberger6621]

I first heard this song when my dad was fighting for his life in July of 2016. We lost him. We played this song at his funeral

[@hanners4895]

This song has helped me a lot during my early 20s. As an 27 year old now, my mom is dealing with cancer and I hate thinking of life without her. She’s doing ok but it’s still scary. She got her nursing degree in her 50s, while having 3 children at home and while my dad was on the road as a truck driver. There is more I could say but it would be a lot.

[@marknelson8612]

Dedicated to my mum that was taken from me on the 10th January this year, Heard this the day after after my mum funeral, this song will be forever mean so much to me

[@haggisman2002]

My Mum passed on Jan 1. I feel your pain and longing to see her again and the comfort this song brings

[@felixrincon1108]

🙏🏽

[@arothmanmusic]

I encountered this song for the first time in the midst of my mother's passing as well. I always associate it with her. May we all find healing in music.

[@MetalDYi]

This song is to all our loved ones, we miss so much.

[@andreahope1787]

I cannot find words for what this did to me. it is so evocative and speaks beyond what we have capacity to communicate. I’m so grateful for artists that have this capability.

[@vonalysongreg2780]

We lost our beloved pup last June 15th. This song is for her. We'll love her as long as we live. She's everything to our family.

[@wkpy]

I'm so sorry! 😩 This song would break me if I listened to it right after the death of one of my dog children. 💔

[@AndyBluebear-fi9om]

Why are you telling this to a bunch of people you will never meet in real life?

[@VinEllis]

This is the sound you hear as you enter the pearly gates.

[@AndyBluebear-fi9om]

Nah, when I enter I will hear something with a more upbeat tempo.

[@Hava744]

What sort of mind can produce this wonderful haunting piece of music . As someone else said , I envy the people hearing this for the first time. It’s like a club , like we found it , and we all dedicate it to a loved one . My daddy.

[@betsyann453]

I want to gatekeep this song, yet I also want everyone to experience it ❤

[@ammit367]

I would do anything to hear this at concert

[@JessicaNichole89]

Omg me too!

[@CherylMccarthy-rb4vc]

What I would not give to hear this live. It reminds me of my late husband

[@All.For.You.Lord.]

This song is a masterpiece

[@YehonatanStein]

Em algum lugar ainda vamos brincar num quintal de terra, soltar pipa e falar sobre bicicletas, meu querido tio Samuel, você nunca foi esquecido, voce morreu em 1999, mas seu rosto e seu carinho pelo seu sobrinho sobrevivem até hoje... Até breve.

[@danielagosselink3169]

I just can't describe what this song is doing to me! Wish I had wings to fly into the universe!

[@wshutson0304]

I’m creating a playlist for when my time comes and I have a celebration of life. This song is one of the first 3 to be played along with Hollow Coves and Novo Amor, possibly Ben Howard’s “Promise” and R.E.M.’s “Nightswimming”. So that other’s may discover the joy and shear pureness that these songs put into me in times of strife and toil.

[@humphreysikapizye7012]

I don’t know whether to cry or smile. I lost my you brother 20 years ago but it hurts like it was yesterday

[@ali_97s]

Mi canción favorita del mundo desde que la escuché por primera vez hace 8 años...marcó mi vida para siempre y por más canciones que me puedan llegar a gustar, jamás estarán a la altura de esta porque fue un flechazo al corazón y todavía me emociono cuando la escucho. Como no voy a casarme,quiero que la pongan en mi despedida de este mundo 🩵 Esta actuación es PERFECCIÓN.

[@silvanagodinho4425]

Eu também ✨✨✨🛸🌀⛩️🌌✨🕉️

[@Lenuas]

So many people gave their talent and passion just to create 5 wonderfull minutes

[@DarrenKuhn-zq2mv]

I can only imagine that this is how heaven sounds like

[@cebukitty]

Everytime I hear this song played...goosebumps....goosebumps...

[@mariaisabelgomez5651]

I don't know how many times I've watched this video, but I cry over and over again :') 🙌🏻🖤🪐🖤🙌🏻

[@noemiaandre9464]

Me too

[@juliabryan8083]

Made me weep like a baby

[@SvenLuycx]

It’s such a strong song..

[@andreahope1787]

Tell me about it, I just did my make up and now it’s gone!

[@sangstar1]

Most beautiful song which reminds me every day that we are all energy beings, and the souls in each of us are immortal and we are all drops of water in this massive Universe🤔❤. Does this make sense to you?

[@arothmanmusic]

There is no other piece of music that causes the welling of emotions I get from this song. I'm so glad to have found my way to this gorgeous performance of it. It's amazing how the addition of a sweeping arrangement and a heart-tugging bit of poetry can spin I - V - vi - IV into utter splendor.

[@Isntitme986]

This song always makes me want to cry, not due to sadness but because of its beauty

[@flpr777]

Beauty rips the heart apart and brings about sadness

[@limesquared]

This song is gorgeous and makes me cry.

[@almasandratoribio1459]

I know is odd, but this song I chooses to my religious marriage ceremony entrance ✨❣️

[@ingenioexpress1573]

Is not odd, is the best choice you could have made ☺

[@Edd_Nygma]

It was a ceremony that I wish to attend

[@brucetessen7]

But it's about losing someone.

[@AndyBluebear-fi9om]

Why is odd?

[@jessicag.6545]

Every single version of this song has brought me to tears. But seeing all of these lovely, talented people come together to give it a beautiful new presentation is just so wonderful. Crying again. Over and over.

[@patrickendl2368]

I bin ganz hin und weg! Wunderschön!

[@dotk_50]

After a challenging journey through life, kneeling at Heaven's doors in the afterlife, with supporting angels holding a hand and tears flowing before entering salvation, this music would be a fitting accompaniment

[@betsygalloway3310]

I was thinking the same thing ❤. How many could answer the question when they get there. WHY should you be allowed in? NONE of us are worthy. We are trying the best we can .

[@betsygalloway3310]

There's an hour long version of this beautiful song Listen to when I can't sleep. ❤

[@GlennCook-t9w]

Truely rare and beautiful that I exist , touching my inner soul and spirit. Praise Jesus.

[@ianesantanaa4253]

Simplesmente Magnífico! Uma sensação inexplicável. " Sleeping At Last, faz os sonhos adormecidos, acordarem..." AMO MUITO!

[@JaneKellie-i9y]

While I am listening to this i feel asthough I am in the same quiet and tranquil reality.

[@user-pu5oc5br7v]

Oh mi Dios qué belleza de canción!!! Cuándo la escucho me parte el alma. Mi hermana Haydée se fue sin podernos despedir y eso duele y duele mucho. Gracias por esta melodía más allá de las estrellas. 🇨🇷

[@raulrivar]

I can die in peace.............

[@oscardaniellopez753]

Años y años esperando escuchar esta canción en vivo. Hermosa canción e interpretación.

[@Thatsinteresting363]

That such deeply moving music can come through these people into the seemingly dark world helps me believe there is a greater consciousness

[@VerslininkasVG7]

most beautiful music ever heard , Saturn !

[@chrispitts4159]

And to think I thought sleeping at last was already as good as it gets. They go and do better. We want more.

[@marknelson8612]

Such a beautiful song , that means so much to me ...I cry every time I hear this

[@kuunvalo1607]

[@ximenaalvarado5814]

Saturn ha sido mi canción favorita desde 2018. Recuerdo que cuando la escuché por primera vez, me hechizó y me hizo sentir lo que jamás había experimentado con ninguna canción (y tampoco me ha vuelto a suceder). Cada cierto tiempo buscaba alguna versión en vivo, pero no existía. Me había dado por vencida, pero me dio mucha felicidad saber hace unos meses que Ryan había decidido volver a hacer este tipo de presentaciones, porque ahora hay videos en vivo de esta pieza tan magistral. La canción de mi vida. Uno de mis sueños es algún día ser parte de ese público y escuchar esta canción.

[@CLSB-ECHO]

This song cleaves clean through to the heart.

[@DarwinFanF]

05:00 ❤ With shortness of breath I will explain the infinite How rare and beautiful it truly is that we exist

[@T3meee]

Simply beautiful

[@danielrelenschi9924]

I wish to sing this song to an audition for X factor but I find it hard not to cry because my brother died this year. I wanted to go to auditions but I didn't feel prepared and after his death I had a dream of me singing this song to him. I don't know if I should do it this year but I pray to God to have the strength because I want a change in my life. This is one of my favorites songs of all times. I just love it❤

[@carolinehommet9344]
