I don't understand how he manage to do that, but we can feel every single word, the emotion in his voice... He is just SO PRECIOUS, the songs are INCREDIBLE. I'm feel so lucky to be able to listen to them. SAL songs are my favorite, I really want to meet the composer, like, how he sees the word? Can u imagine? It must be a beautiful place... right?

Sleeping at Last is such rare and beautiful corner of this world, i‘ll aways come back 💚

[@szbrnia]

the two contrasting skies. strength and vulnerability. how she had her back turned away from the dark side. the way she laid down in the sand during 'here i am, pry me open'. and how she started facing both sides as she sat up. the pulling away of the frame, making her seem smaller. her persistent attempt to chase it, to appear big. the instance she started going around freely- the release of breath at the end. the strength and relief found in vulnerability. as a 9, i love this song so much. it makes me feel so wounded, yet so empowered every time i listen to it. Embara did a brilliant job in this. ❤️

[@bill8383]

the first example of #vulnerabilityisstrength , I've seen that actually makes sense.. even though they are contradicting terms... sorry to take this comment to that level - but there is kind of a beauty in that, despite the ugliness of political discourse - it's at least a hopeful message anyways.. thanks.

[@Venus0Kets]

1:48 idk if it was intentional or not but the position makes it look like they're in a divide between light and dark; reaching out and pulling away. It's very beautiful- it all is!

[@ohifonlyx33]

Yes! I think they must have noticed that when they were planning this video and decided to use it. If not for the symbolism of the contrast, then at least for the natural beauty of it. But I think the beauty is enhanced when we silly humans can add a level of depth to something like this.

[@CarlaSophieMar]

Beautiful detail! That's the power of art... it's in the interpretation. Interpretation itself is a work of art.

[@StormBurnX]

I know this is a little off-topic but it is a beautiful relief to see a wide-format video that does not have black bars added. Being able to fullscreen the video on a wide monitor and see the whole thing, it just makes the song all the more beautiful :)

[@raminamersiana6468]

Great song with a breath taking views... 😍😍

[@frostpersonal3758]

i love how at 2:33 when it comes to a turning point of "here i am pry me open" the dancer lies on the sand still, exposing herself and relaxing

[@curiousniffler]

I love that this song just ends. There is no fadeout. A fadeout would be an injustice.

[@monicabarbacena6139]

3:47-3:48 The clouds up there resembles the move that the woman is making. This is so beautiful. Everything in here is beautiful. The song, the woman, the place, the time. It's all perfect. Also, just what i needed to hear due to trauma I've been through and I won't let anyone in cause im afraid they'll break my trust, that they'll find out my weaknesses and attack me there-again.

[@rexthehorse2263]

Sleeping at last is my favorite because it makes me feel like someone cares lol

A mood

[@skyedocherty5781]

I remember the minute It was like a switch was flipped I was just a kid who grew up strong enough To pick this armor up And suddenly it fit God, that was so long ago, long ago, long ago I was little, I was weak and perfectly naive And I grew up too quick Now you won't see all that I have to lose And all I've lost in the fight to protect it I won't let you in, I swore never again I can't afford, no, I refuse to be rejected I want to break these bones 'til they're better I want to break them right and feel alive You were wrong, you were wrong, you were wrong My healing needed more than time When I see fragile things, helpless things, broken things I see the familiar I was little, I was weak, I was perfect, too Now I'm a broken mirror But I can't let you see all that I have to lose All I've lost in the fight to protect it I can't let you in, I swore never again I can't afford to let myself be blindsided I'm standing guard, I'm falling apart And all I want is to trust you Show me how to lay my sword down For long enough to let you through Here I am, pry me open What do you want to know? I'm just a kid who grew up scared enough To hold the door shut And bury my innocence But here's a map, here's a shovel Here's my Achilles' heel I'm all in, palms out I'm at your mercy now and I'm ready to begin I am strong, I am strong, I am strong enough to let you in I'ma shake the ground with all my might And I will pull my whole heart up to the surface For the innocent, for the vulnerable And I'll show up on the front lines with a purpose And I'll give all I have, I'll give my blood, give my sweat An ocean of tears will spill for what is broken I'm shattered porcelain, glued back together again Invincible like I've never been

[@ohifonlyx33]

Sleeping at Last is paired so perfectly with this kind of expressive dance. That plus the cinema and the location and it's just gorgeous 😍 Everything about this is wonderful and I would expect nothing left. I may have even shed a tear or two. And this from a 9w1.

[@sophiefilo16]

I personally don't get dancing of this type, but the scenery was quite appealing. I particularly liked the shots that showed half the sky lit with the sun and the other half shrouded in dark clouds... -5w4

[@ohifonlyx33]

@@sophiefilo16 i also know zilch, but this kind of dance speaks to me when it's done well. but it can be risky... sometimes a certain portion will get too messy and it doesn't flow right to me. i'll even admit, this choreo has a little more "drunk stumbling" in it than i usually care for... but when it's done well the motions align with the beats, almost like a music visualizer on Windows Media Player, but laced with the emotional beats of the song as well. and there is a lot more to like than dislike. but if you want to see one of my fave choreos for Sleeping At Last, check out Light choreographed by Emmanuelle Lamberts.

[@minayazdanbin2184]

ohifonlyx33, It's the second time I see you commenting below the Eight song, even though you have a hard time warming up and relating to Eights according to the other comment of yours below the other video. I am not sure if I should take it as a compliment or be hurt that we are such difficult people according to the other types. :D I can't speak for the rest, but I personally don't like it when others pity me (I may be wrong but I got that impression when I was reading some comments). The fact that I'm an INTJ (8w9) makes it even worse. ;) Plus, I have my own battles in my home country (Iran) right now so I can't worry too much about how the other types view my type(s) (which do(es)n't completely define me; MBTI or the Enneagram. Far from it, in fact). I don't think it's the right thing to tar an entire type with the same broad brush, because even the rarest subtypes usually consist of millions of people on the earth and all of them are unique individuals. Especially not people we have not met in person at all. I admit your comments were intersting to read, so thanks for sharing. If my English sounds off, it's because my first language is Persian and English is my second language. Have a nice day or night depending on where you are.

[@ohifonlyx33]

@@minayazdanbin2184 I am a huge Sleeping At Last fan. And I love this song. That's why you see me commenting. I am surprised to relate to it, simply because when I read a description of an "eight" stereotype, I usually don't relate very much. I am typically pretty non-confrontational. I don't pity eights though. I also don't suppose to define someone bu a number. I also like the MBTI much more than enneagram, and even then, people are more than a label... I just never understood the 8 type... But this song makes me feel like one. Especially lately.

for the last few years of my life, sleeping at last has always been there for me in dark times...i haven’t gone a single day without listening to this music since i was fourteen and i fall asleep to it every single night. there isn’t a big chance this will get read but thank you, ryan, for being beside me in this way while i’ve taken many journeys - when i had no one that was for me, when i was overcoming an eating disorder, when i struggled with self-harm, when i was rejected by my family and peers after coming out of the closet, when i had to deal with the deaths of many loved ones, i always had your kind poetry in my ears to keep me going. i discovered you my freshman year of high school, and here i am, soon approaching graduation. i will listen to you then, too, and i am so grateful to have shared so much of my life with your art. i wish your body, mind, and soul to be sound. blessed be, and thank you for everything you’ve helped guide me through and all you will do in the future.

The phrase: "I want to break these bones 'til they're better... I want to break them right and feel alive... You were wrong, you were wrong, you were wrong... My healing needed more than time" I started to cry. I have been broken over and over again in this life. This is song is what has been my unspoken anthem.

[@brandonmshrock]

Wow! This made me cry. My mom's an 8 and I always wondered why she is the way she is and does the things she does, but the line "I'm standing guard, I'm falling apart And all I want is to trust you Show me how to lay my sword down For long enough to let you through" made me lose it.

[@mentalwarriorshow1458]

I am going through a really brutal break up. It’s been almost 2 months since, and I still feel broken on some days. This song is beautiful. I’ve put up so many walls since then. I’ve felt impenetrable. But I’m realizing that to truly heal I’ll have to open my heart again, and embrace vulnerability. Life is about happiness, and pain. And you can never truly experience happiness without pain. I won’t keep these walls up. I’ll learn to lay my sword down in time, and I will embrace being vulnerable once again.
