[@22ChampagneSupernova]

I’m dumbfounded that this was first uploaded 13 years ago! I found out about these fellows in my freshman year of high school, they really captured the dusky ethereality and romance of 80s alternative that was making a comeback at the time. Kinda miss those days, everything seemed a little more wide-open then. Outstanding song.

[@Pinerocks]

Better late than never!! 👍🏼😀

[@tismejess]

This song tops itself with every minute that you listen to it. Every time I think, “this is the best part!” it just gets better.

[@melissaescobar2008]

I think this song makes me feel the way you can always get ahead in life in the end, despite the ups and downs and the darkness. It is the mystical transit, the final calm part is as if they told you "you already understood everything"

This is an absolutely beautiful interpretation.

Tremendo tema, los tonos, los contrastes, la transición, el bajo de la transición, el color de los contrastes fotográficos aportan ese sentimiento de desolación y de esperanza, y la parte final es casi un orgasmo... Parece un video sin época ni tiempo y a pesar que tiene larga duración uno queda con ganas de escucharlo más veces... toda una sorpresa en estos últimos tiempos de mala música, simplemente buenísimo!

[@jordanmcquay9077]

I actually got to hang out with all of them after a show in Dallas. Joe actually asked his crew to go into their truck and give me his sticks, and signed them

[@josiahwells7442]

I think the intro is something that will stay forever. Here in 2020, it made the band even more alive

[@spooookie2u]

"Some say we walk alone Barefoot on wicked stone, no light And sanctuary found never waits around awhile Marching to the sea Their dreams stay in the shadows Their dreams stay firmly rooted in the shallows See the scraping sky See my destination there tonight So say I walk alone, barefoot On wicked stone tonight Will you leap to follow Will you turn and go Will your dreams stay rooted in the shallows See the scraping sky Far beyond the shallows Far beyond the reaches of the shadows Though youth may fade with boyhood's cares New fear will catch us unawares I know it will So you might say The path we share is one of danger And of fear Until the end"

[@mattstevens2127]

Never before and I can probably safely say never again will one song completely change my opinion on a band. Remember thinking this band was absolute garbage after listening to their first album and then out of pure curiosity I listened to this when it dropped and it blew my tiny little mind into more than 999 pieces. And happily ever after I've seen them countless times live and it's been a joy to watch them evolve. Oh, the horrors.

[@TheZonalMarking]

Exact same experience as this for me. I think they're the only band I've ever booed off when I saw them as a support act. Thought they were abysmal. Then I heard this, bloody hell.

[@MUFFINHEAD1985]

same, thought they were hipsters and first album trash. This is album is perfect.

[@ragnaregilsson1075]

Same. I went from thinking of them as a punchline to picking my jaw off the ground.

[@carnivalofroses]

I can't even begin to explain the feelings I get when I listen to this...absolute chills. The ending leaves me this bittersweet feeling of overwhelming joy. Masterpiece.

[@Elvisism]

I can see its similarities with Disparate Youth by Santigold, both so uplifting in their own ways.

[@dubebeto]

I introduced my son to this band and specifically this song… he know loves them!

[@dfstarborn]

This is there pinnacle song by a country mile.. Pure genius and one of the best songs I've ever heard.

[@ElCanaldePerfil1]

I think that this video is inspired by a Pink Floyd appearance in BBC 1, playing Pow R TOC and Astronomy Domine. The look of Faris Badwan, some gestures, like raising his arms, the lights, etc resembles Syd Barrett a lot. Also, the host introduction resembles BBCs host Hans Keller on that occasion. Last, the first part of the song drums and bass line seems inspired by the 2 firts songs from LP The Piper at the Gates of Dawn.

[@avantgardo]

Oh dude yeah for sure

[@ElCanaldePerfil1]

among other references, the circles that appear at the beginning of the video, like those of Syd's guitar

This is the kind of music we should be hearing in this generation. The 90's and 80's showed the definition of real music back then. But this generation of real music is getting more obscure each year.
