I was with the digger in Afghanistan. Embedded with active duty military. PTSD and tbi because of it. This music makes me focus so I can heal from it. There are alot of demons that tear at my soul from over there. This helps calm those demons. Thank you.

+Chris Zabriskie the music is intoxicating and very beautiful :) and very relaxing too!!

A bit morbid but when I was diagnosed with cancer a few years ago I had secretly planned my funeral haha had this as one of the final songs I wanted to play it's such a beautiful piece still makes me tear up when I hear it late at night. Edit: 5 years in remission today!

[@stevewildeagle965]

so sorry to hear that, live life to the full each day, and hold those you love close.

[@brianmulholland6640]

That's really sad mate. I hope you can have a happy life. What age was your twin?

[@ramroom619]

i'm so sorry man. I have a twin too so your comment was heartbreaking . I hope you always try to live your life to the fullest as happy as you can . I'm sure your twin would want that.

[@peytonsingh6258]

John 3:16- For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. I want to let you know you are all so loved and that Jesus loves you! Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins, was buried, and rose again from the dead on the third day. This is known as the beautiful Gospel. If we repent (confess our sins to God truthfully and humbly and turn away from them), confess Jesus as the Lord of our lives giving our lives to Him, and put our trust in Christ, the Son of God as our Savior and His Gospel to save us, God gives us eternal life! God bless you all!

Hey i want to tell you something.. Noone is ever gone.. death is for body.. not for Soul.. his Soul is with you always.. God bless you..

[@GrandBeauLapin]

How can a piece of music be so infused with joy, wonder and sadness at the same time? It really captures the essence of life beautifully. I will always love it.

[@countspatula329]

you were a little kid a one point. everything felt like a mix of good and awkward.

[@Chardt013]

reading the comments, it amazes me that a piece of music can touch peoples emotions like that. its beautiful, thank you.

[@haydenallee4579]

Used this song as the background track in a video I made highlighting my grandfather's life. He just turned 90 and we celebrated. We recovered a bunch of his old super 8mm camera footage and I was honored to edit it together using this compelling track. Saw my grandma for the first time in a real way, she passed when I was young to breast cancer. Thank you Chris for your art. Many happy tears were shed.

[@ThePahan007]

[@adamthompson9567]

This is the music for standing over the abyss, knowing you have finally figured out a life long riddle, and hating the answer.

[@Superknullisch]

Yeah.. I definitely know that feeling..

Wow... Actually yeah. That is a pretty good description.

This.

[@joanking8708]

I could'nt have said it better

[@redplanet76]

One of my favorite songs ever made. I’m not sure why. I return to it every so often... often looping it for a while. It transcends time and space or something. I’m in kidney failure at a young age. I’m very sick but not broken. Somehow this song gives me peace... reminds me of the hope I have of a loving and living God... that everything will be ok. Thanks Chris for your creation.

[@lua9502]

Wow man. I'm sorry that you have to deal with this. Everything is gonna be alright soon and I hope that you'll feel better some day

[@redplanet76]

@@lua9502 that’s really kind of you to say. I got accepted for transplant at Stanford. Best program in the world, I’m very grateful. Things are looking up.

[@lua9502]

[@redplanet76]

@Josiah Evans thank you. Transplant is April 5 2021. New life soon. I appreciate all thoughts and prayers.

[@Rokker61]

Hey, Red Planet. How did your transplant op go? Hope you're recovering well! Cheers!

[@alejandropimentel1078]

This is a great melody for sitting in your chair very relaxed, doing tasks, for sleep, etc. It´s absolutely recommended!

[@dreggan]

I first heard this during a background video on YT for getting babies to sleep. My son is almost 6 now. I got to look after him as the primary parent for the first two years. After a lifetime of battling Complex PTSD and hating myself he was born and it was like the sun had finally come up. I was constantly tired and covered in baby formula, vomit or worse - and I have never been more content. This music always reminds me of the pure love and adoration he would look at me with asking what adventures we were going to go on today. This song will always take me back to the favourite time of my life.

[@damianakang6563]

Makes me feel like I have just watched a whole movie. Lots of love from Seoul, Korea.

[@s.a.l948]

I've been listening to this at least once a day for several months now. Obsessed. So so very many feels....

[@sebasmorcillo1607]

This song means so much for me. I really love it even though my soul hurts every time I listen to it

[@politicallyshort9282]

I am amazed by the ability of this piece to touch me so deeply. What a beauty

[@et3rnal_fm]

im in love with this song

[@dsisson5184]

I've used your music in about half the videos I've made for work and personal use in the last year (all with attributions of course). It's great stuff! And you can tell I'm sincere because I would never use music that forces me to include such ridiculously LONG titles in my credits unless it was really good. Thanks. Keep up the great work!

[@cosmicsoulcircle9289]

Chris Zabriskie When I listen to your music, I hear a unique expression of god in music. The music tells us to be ourselves and embraces life just the way it is. Embrace every mistake because they are all only experiences. That there is no wrong in life only the wrong we create. What's right is the way this music makes me feel. What's right is this moment and these thoughts. What's right is love. The way this music makes me feel is god.

[@CarlosCoronadoGameDev]

As the dev behind MIND: Path to Thalamus I just want to say in public: thanks, thanks a lot Chris for making this track. It is the key track of the game and the trailer and the game is better thanks to you :)

[@Cuestrupaster]

Really a good game, I'm looking forward to playing, some one more time and I buy the game...

[@garethroper6256]

truly amazing game and in my opinion it would have been a perfect 10/10 sadly i would give it a 8-9 due the the voice acting, the script is good but the voice acting can be very bland and emotionless in many places that can somewhat take away the immersive feel that the game holds so well. either way still a fantastic game

[@Suwoking]

And i just want to say thank you for making the game!!!

[@IrrerWisch]

I just found it in the humble bundle, saw the trailer and am infatuated. The tideland alone got to me.

[@SahilP2648]

I have just bought the game! Now I am going to patiently wait till mid 2016 till I get myself Oculus Rift or some vr and play in that. Thank you for making such a beautiful game!

[@Peacheero]

I can’t believe I finally found this song. I heard it in a video someone had edited exploring an abandoned house years ago, and the melody haunted me ever since. Sometimes I’d randomly remember it and hum it. This was used in a yoga video and they listed the song name in the description and I came immediately here from there. Thank you for this beautiful piece of music, I’m so happy I can come back and listen to this whenever now ❤

[@maja_mei]

Came here from the Sarah Beth Yoga video, too.

I first heard this as background music on a fertility hypnosis video and instantly fell in love with the music. That moment at 1:18 when the music shifts, I can feel my body sinking deeper into meditation. Also, the visual that runs through my mind and the emotions felt through my body is like a kaleidoscopic journey through space. Thank you for such beautiful music.

[@scottiew11]

I heard this on a Facebook video. It had a different name which made finding it tricky. But where there’s a will there’s a way.

[@swaree]

one day the thought of a song with a long title and a very rough mental image of the thumbnail came back to mind and the whole afternoon passed until I remembered it was featured in some videogame

[@Rebelqueen89]

I listen this piece of music and I can't help think in Nick Johnson drive through the worst part of West Memphis (Arkansas). I discovered this song watching that video and now, I feel I will never do enjoy it without think in West Memphis. But it's a beautiful masterpiece.

[@Nono-de3zi]

This is one of my favorite pieces ever. I listened to it while running in the alps on my own. I was going through a tough period at the time. Really tough. So I did not give a toss that I was higher than I should have been. Avalanches were coming down in the background. This brought me peace. Enough so that I turned around and raced down on my feet instead.

[@pallavmahato7865]

The music is so beautiful that it doesn't even need a singer.

[@pokotan2616]

I love this song💖😍 I remember mercy（慈悲） From Japan🌿

[@Lapid34]

I used to hear this song during summer (south hemisphere) so I could deal with my personal and family troubles, I still remember watching the sea and feeling the grass while I tried to find self calming, now during pandemic and quarantine I heard it again and could feel the moment of relax that I felt during summer, thank you Chris

This song... simply awesome. It's so beautiful... Thanks for this musical gift you give us

[@TheACapMan]

I'm a film student and my team and I have used many of your pieces (crediting you for them, of course) for our projects. Plus, listening to this piece in particular helps me to get ideas for scripts. Thank you, Mr. Zabriskie, for inadvertently being a part of our team!

[@ralphpalasek4706]

I also heard the short musical bit at the end of a hard Story Corps account on NPR Weekend Edition, this morning. The repetitions, and the patterns within those repetitions, were so transporting--entrancing. I flashed on J.S. Bach's Prelude 22, from book one of his Well Tempered Clavier--from a different age--yet informed by a similar search for a solution. (Angela Hewitt's most recent recorded performance stands out.) THANKS MUCH for simply and wonderfully saying what we so crave and grasp to listen to.

[@chriszabriskie]

Thank you!

[@lucyj87]

I heard this piece on the Lore podcast. I have listened to it several times today and I think it is very moving and mesmerising piece of music. Thank you for it. X

[@mariakal.]

due to a goverment's mistake, my mother might have to leave the country for good. she worked so hard in this country for 20 years, never taking a break, doing 3 jobs a day + doing all the housework and raising me and my siblings & also my father since he was jobless most of the time. she bought a house for our family and left everyone speechless because she's just a cleaner. all the work she did here will go to waste, it will all vanish. the years she spent working 20 hours a day so she can raise our family and live comfortably when she retires will have meant nothing. i'm afraid of living without her for my entire life but i'm so mad that she will never be able to truly rest after all of her hard work.

When the synth first kicks in you think it's not going to blend well. It's too dissonant. But in the end it only adds to the sense of mystery and nostalgia the piano sets at the start. Bravo! Beautiful.

[@Eliterra]

So beautiful! Heard it on StoryCorps and after intensively searching the net (my friend just clued me onto the Shazam app) finally found it! And sheet music to boot! Can't wait to play it (I'm a classically trained pianist). I'm so excited I found this--just exquisite.

[@kennisonrichmond4619]

This song is so gut wrenching to me. It’s a heartfelt cry of despair brought on by beauty. It’s a sob, where you can hardly breathe. But God it’s so beautiful and you desperately cry for this beauty and it’s just… amazingly horrible the pain this song gives me. I know lots of people find comfort in this song, I do as well but as much as it comforts me it wrecks me just as hard yet I always come back to it and weep.

[@kobolslastgleamingdragon3732]

I don't know which, but either the contents of the channel THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE or the arrangement of this song make me feel....I don't know the word for that feeling...or maybe it's a state of mind...melancholic? morose? moribund? hopeful? pensive?resigned? All I do know is at the end of the world I want to be listening to this and hanging out with my dogs.

This is a beautiful piece. Came here after seeing the gameplay video of Mind: Path to Thalamus. As someone who played the piano for 11 years when I was a teenager, this is a beautiful peace and almost speaks to a part of my soul. Amazing job. I would like to hear just the piano by itself. It's amazing, makes me feel this emotion of sadness, but a happy sadness. Actually brought me to tears. Beautiful.
