This song has a story. If you did not know, this song was written as a tribute to a fan who died in a car accident trying to get to one of his concerts.
i remember as a kid, i used to listen to dubstep for the drops and never really cared about the musical or atmospheric element. when i discovered this song, i waited and waited for the drop, and it never came. but when i was waiting, i realized how absorbed and moved i was by it. i cant put it into words, but it shifted my dumb noise obsessed teenage mind into finding beauty in the sonics and composition of music as opposed to some gimmicky "drop". this song really changed the way i listen to music.
I'm 29, I just recovered a ton of photos from an old hard-drive I saved in a box, it's was broken but I managed to make it work, I'm now going through it as I listen to this music, the pictures from my teenage years, people I don't speak no more hugging and kissing me. What is this feeling, I feel so hopeless, I'm having this huge reality check, nothing is forever, enjoy every moment.
Matt Longmuir I just lost it. I knew the song was made for a few who passed, but I never knew the story. A few years later, I finally understand. Damn... Joel really is something.
exactly, i just went through a breakup and on top of that when i finally got over it i found my dream girl.....but she loves one of my friens.......and sayd no to me
4:26 This beating heart sound is actually what you would feel if you were bleeding to death as your heart accelerates and pumps harder in a desperate aptempt to keep blood pressure high enough but failing because you're losing too much blood. This is called hypovolemic shock btw.
This throbbing pounding sound is what u would feel when ur boyfriend has u bent over the bed rail, as he pumps harder in a desperate attempt to keep u from realizing that he (much like urself) has only a below average size penis and is furiously pounding away to over compensate for his short cumings.
Most comments are people thinking of sad things, however I think about every memory I have ever had, everything I've done, and everything I have yet to do. This song hits me deep and makes me realize that we have to enjoy every moment in life. I'm 19 years old right now and have lived an excellent life so far... here's to another 84 more years!
@@alexm7777 You just answered your own question my friend, it is hard not to dwell on the past and/or regrets. You simply don't... I know, I know, much easier said than done but try replacing the word "dwell" for "learn". Learn from your past, everything you've done, learn from it. Understand that the past is the past, something that can't be changed but only learned from. With that knowledge, take it into your future and shape it to your absolute best version of yourself. You don't need to revel in the past, but understand why/ how it happened, learn from it, and keep climbing, because we are already at the very top of the mountain, and we're barely just getting started... Hope this finds you well, and as always, have a good one my friend. -S
It is so astonishing to think that you could have missed some unknown emotions hidden in your mind and that this kind of magic sound just arise from the deepest places of your soul...
+Mohamed M. It makes me also think about my love, a girl I've had an eye on for years and am finally dating. It's sad because I don't know if she likes me back like I do with her. Anyways, good comment friend
Close your eyes and think about the memories of your life. Start with the small memories, then as the song builds, think about the more prominent ones.
This song makes me proud to be on the same planet as this magnificent artist. This alone makes me forgive and forget all the horrible things humans have done. Joel has talent of which humans weren't supposed to have. If there is a heaven, deadmau5's soul was mistakenly misplaced on our world, and his music is a way for him to feel the heavens.
This song is a portrayal of the 5 stages of grief/how it feels to lose a loved one. As the song progresses, this is what each section of the song reminds me of. 1. Denial - 0:00 You are lost. You feel empty, overwhelmed, nothing makes sense. 2. Anger - 0:25 You question yourself: Why didn't I spend more time with this person? Why me? Why didn't I do something about this earlier? 3. Bargaining - 1:33 You will do anything to get that person back. You want your loved one restored. 4. Depression - 3:36 You feel emptiness once again. It lasts forever. Why go on in life? Is there any point? 5. Acceptance - 5:25 You must live in a world without your loved one. It is the new norm you need to accept. The person will always be in your heart. I can't describe what this song makes me feel. I am extremely thankful that I have not lost a loved one during my life, but I can only imagine that this song is what it feels like to go through a loss. If you took the time to read this comment, thank you :)
Sorry for your loss bro. I know exactly how it feels. Its hard losing the people that brought you into this world, because they can never be replaced. Stay strong man.
i dont think deadmau5 shows are just raves. theyre an experience, theyre one of the best moments one could ever experience. dont just call it a rave. i dont think people go to mau5 shows for drugs or other bad stuff you find at raves. they go for the music, for the visuals, for joel, for experiencing something that cant be experienced somewhere else
@@durrantmiller8810 Lol I started bawling once at a Deadmau5 show when he was playing Strobe. I was extremely high and was just suddenly overcome with a wave of overwhelming emotion at the music, love for my friends, and the sheer beauty of 10,000 sweaty bodies all moving together at once in unity and harmony. It felt like this giant sea of humanity and love. It was incredibly intense, the emotion felt like it was just going to burst out of me and so it kinda did. It was super embarrassing though because my friend noticed and she was all concerned that something was wrong with me.
Music is the highest art form in the universe, nothing else can so eloquently translate human thoughts and emotions into a language that is universally understood across the planet. Thank you Joel for this masterpiece. Words can not describe what it makes me feel, but if you listen closely you'll feel it too.
still cant get over the fact specific wavelengths, and notes can trigger emotions, feelings, memories; to bare into a pool of tears, to wreck out at an object, or even tear your heart out to many other beings witnessing
I'm 22 years old, starting July 11th. I found this song 8 years ago as I started my 8th grade year, moving from my grandparents' house to my mother's. When I first found this song it was literally nothing short of an escape. And to this day, it's euphoric. Thank you, Joel.
To my deathbed, this will be the most important piece of music in my life. So many memories attached to it. Still remember 7 years ago staying at the beach overnight watching the stars
man, I remember listening to this song on repeat when i was in the 10th grade and only 15 years old. I was texting this girl and finally mustered up the courage to tell her how I felt, always the worry of uncertainty being the biggest roadblock as a kid. Turns out she was into me and I got the text back listening to this song. It was the first time i felt something like love towards a "partner". I can still recall the feeling listening to this song now. it changed me...Anyway, the point of this comment is to say that you will never be the best version of yourself if you don't seize every opportunity you can in your life. Take a leap of faith! believe in yourself! you may have people to help you on your way but nobody is going to do it yourself. It comes down to you...YES YOU! Be the best version of yourself and you will radiate happiness until the day you die.
I lost my cat a few weeks ago, I heard this a couple months earlier than the death. I thought of this song when we had to put her down. Ever since I've been crying myself to sleep. This sort of depression inside me. It feels horrible, she was an amazing cat. 4 years of pure joy. Joel, you are amazing. R.I.P Jessie 2014 - 2018
I’ve been listening to this song almost every day for the past 2 years. It fills an empty void in my heart. How I interpret this song, is every memory I’ve ever had, and can remember, open in one full 5 minutes. From the start of life to the end, I believe this masterpiece is a happy one. I can genuinely see myself having a happy ending by the end of the song. Thank you deadmau5. I’ll never forget how this made me feel.
@@koenfrfc the amount of sadness in this world can be overwhelming for some individuals. Even so much as to make them not want to participate in it anymore.
0:00 - 0:20 - waiting for diagnosis 0:21 - 1:04 - oncology 1:05 - 1:33 - notification of the closest people 1:34 - 2:19 - crying too much 2:20 - 3:00 - life continues, the search for a cure 3:01 - 3:30 - "i will die like a street dog" she said 3:31 - 4:15 - pain 4:16 - 4:50 - novocaine is useless now 4:51 - 5:14 - agony 5:15 - 5:40 - goodbye mom
I dunno what I think of when I hear this song. Perhaps it's sad, but also happy, like living a bittersweet moment, or maybe like a happy memory, wishing you could relive it. I dunno. All I know is that it fills me with some deep emotions.
I think of the several times that I moved, missing the few friends that I made, that related to me, that appreciated me. I'm thinking of how lucky I am to be blessed with a wonderful life, and of how to make the best of it, how to make myself proud. How to do something that would let my future self, close to dying, look back at my life and think, I did well.
Out of all the songs deadmau5 has made, this is my favorite. Forget the dancing, forget the fist pumping. This is that rare feeling that you get only when you know nothing can harm you, and that you're proud of who you are. And I'd say that's a hell of a lot better than dancing.
Me too, she left me alone in this world full of lies, She didn't pass away but she left me when my dad passed away and she left me for the sake of another husband😭😭😭and I haven't seen her for a really long time,about 2 or 3 years,she's like a dead mother though😢
If I'm just being honest... this song just makes me tear up. It just makes me remember all of my young days..... makes me remember when life didn't be so hard... but as time does go on... life will get more stressful or harder..... If you think about it... this song just makes you emotional either mentally or physically... and it just makes you remember what life was and is like now. I just love what Deadmau5 does for his music.... and as Tim Vista said "This is what missing someone sounds like" Just be who you are and enjoy your life while it lasts... We will end up being 6ft below the ground one day. whoever reads this, have a great life..
Yeah man, I feel the exact same way about this song. I was around eight or nine when k heard this song for the first time. It’s my favorite of all time.
I remember listening to this on the way to the airport with my Mom. She found out how my Dad had been treating me for around 2.5 years. To keep it short it was hell, abuse, food insecurity, moving from place to place, homelessness. And then it was over and this song came on, and I cried so hard. Thank you Deadmau5 for making this, it's a beautiful peace of art that has helped me process my emotions and grow better as a person. I was 12 then, now I'm 18 going on 19. Very precious memories.
Someone already posted this, but it's been long since flushed into the comment section, here it is again for you all to enjoy as you listen to this master piece. i want this song to be playing on my deathbed. when it builds up i will remember all the good times i had with my friends and family and the hardships i had in between and how i overcomed it all and the struggle, blood, sweat, and determination brought me to where i lay that fateful day. and when the song drops off at 5:24 is where i slowly close my eyes and embrace the welcoming into the dimension beyond.
Life is short. There's no getting around it. But enjoy it as much as you can. You don't need money to be happy. Do what makes you happy. That's what life is for.
I've come to realize, as i am listening to it over and over again, that this song has its own language. This is why we can't possibly describe it with words, and this song in particular is beyond art. Music is the most precious thing we've ever been gifted.
The abyss is horrifying, yet comforting in how it can take you in when you feel your loneliest. You can't help but find some peculiar peacefulness as you push away those who love you, while managing to loathe yourself for doing it. If we keep everyone out, then they can't see our weaknesses, our flaws and imperfections. You feel something deep in you, desperately clawing through the skull and heart to try and reach out for something more; distractions and reasons to stay around. These might be people, projects, drugs, crimes, anything to busy the mind. To keep this soothing darkness at bay. To keep it from pushing you into doing the irreversible. Sooner or later, these distractions fade away. You find yourself being unable to feel what you define as genuine happiness and love. You start to convince yourself you're some monster. That you are unworthy of love and kindness. You toss around in bed, on the floor, in the shower, trying to be okay. But you feel like you can't. The throat begins to swell, your eyes wettening, the sides of your mouth pulling downward, the mind is rushing with an overload of information, thoughts, memories, and images. You can't breathe. You may find yourself doing something you wish you could take back. There's a darkness within you that you can't describe to other people, for fear of being outcasted. You feel isolated, and unworthy of anything but the mental hell you have trapped yourself in. But you are not alone. If you need proof, just listen to the music, and allow yourself to feel Joel/deadmau5's pain through this track. There's a deep sorrow there, but one can almost feel at ease to know finally that they are not alone. As shitty as that sounds. Wherever you are in your life, or how you're feeling at this moment, I hope you can get on the right track to heal. Much love, A rando on the internet (P.S. I seriously recommend following this song by "Strobe". It feels like two blend into each other.)
Man this song still moves me. I never had anything specific that connected with to this but rather the expression is how I often feel. It’s funny how sound can mirror emotion. I wonder if anyone that reads this can relate to that.
I wish I could see you again, grandma. I went to your house to have lunch everyday. We talked about modern days when we turned on the computer. Don't you remember all of those pictures? Don't you remember when you showed me the internet? Please, grandma, now show me how to live without you... How to live without the one who introduced me to the world, without the one who made my childhood, without the one who made the cousins be together. Now that you're gone, they're gone too... They went with friends, and I'm alone, grandma, I'm alone... I found a friend, but my thoughts are still private. Thank you for everything, grandma. I love you.
I dedicated this song to my boyfriend, who gave me the love no one had before... He broke up with me a week ago because of me. I keep making the same mistakes...
Man thus made me cry me and my friend anthony were best friends since pre k he left in high school to a different state the last word he said before I saw him the last time is ," believe" that realy encouraged me and thanks to him im here following my dreams memories. But sometimes you have to let go of friends some day 😩😪
Everytime I'm having a bad day or I'm just lonely. I always find myself coming to this song. I just sit here and think about all the good times i've had in my life and the reason why i should keep pushing forward and move past all of the hardships and just make myself better
Listening to this high puts me in the most peaceful state of mind. Like love, peace, calmness, and relaxation completely take over my body. It's amazing. I love it.
This makes me remember allot of things... When I needed to put my dad in jail because of my mom... When my dad cried in front of me and said he will love me forever... When he tried to buy anything he could for me... I am legit crying.. It makes me realize that my life is wrong, I tought this was normal when this happened. I remember fighting on the phone and screaming, loud, loud screaming. Me crying in my room all alone, nobody with me. eating chocolate and staring at the wall. I also remember when my boyfriend kissed his best friend in front of me... My only friend, the only one I loved. All gone in one second, being depressed the next day. Cutting myself... Feeling useless, that leads me to the internet. To find people that care, to find songs like this... Thank you... Thank you for this song, and thank you for reading..
No puedo ser el único latinoamericano que este escuchando este pedazo de tema. Está canción me hace sentir solo y libre a misma vez. No sé cómo explicarlo.
This track truly reminds me of the love of my life and all the great memories we had together. God I miss her.. never take the one you care about the most for granted, never.
And now... A little poetry. With the mist that covers my feet, the friends that I hold dear, one day again we'll meet, and burst to tears, allow me the chance to see that who you were then is truly to be. Is this you? Is this the ice or the storm? If not you then who? The ice we see is cold in form. This is the mist which covers my feet, my soul. Is it you my friend? Have you come with dice, yet again to roll?
I used to live north of Paris (I now live in Belgium). There has been many terrorist attacks there recently and my parents worried about my safety there. They wanted me to leave there. So I would travel to parts of Europe to see what place I would move there. The last day I was in Paris, I listened to this song, knowing that I would have to leave a place that I have stayed for many years. This song always makes my memory drown away and the only thing I know is the song. This is one of the best EDM song of all time.
Idk what it is about this song. I always find my self gritting my teeth staring into the abyss with no thoughts. God I miss you Felicia why is it always car accidents...
This reminds me of the fact that I'll never be able to go back to memories, you think about them and you get happy because you remember how wonderful they were but you really want to do them again so you realize you can't. And then it hits you that every good thing that happens in your life can't be re-visited, and every time you try it just makes you long for better times even more. You can't remake something as beautiful as a good memory, but you can always look at them again, some of the most beautiful things in life cannot be touched or bought or even seen. Some things are just so perfect that they are just there to remind you that you are never going to acheive happieness out of things, and I know this sounds cheesy but it's true. If it wasint for these things no matter what they are, the world would not have value.
I get your trying to say something deep but uhhh...."you can always look back to them" then follow up with "some of the most beautiful things cannot bee seen..." you contradict.
How is it possible to be as good of a producer as you, to create a song that just makes me feel like a hole is torn in my soul, like a mental stab right in my heart.

Same thing happened to me bro
I know the feeling.
I'm late to comment but the same thing happened to me when i first discovered Deadmau5
Never happend to me because Deadmau5 was actually the first electronic music I listened to.
Agreed, but I still don't shy away from a nice impactful drop. Hearing deadmau5 more *expanded* my taste than really changed it.
This is the type of song that makes you blankly stare at the screen as you mentally drown in your emotions.
I think thats the best way to put it
yup...sounds about right lol
i cant even begin to describe how much i relate to this
You literally managed to nail down in one sentence what I'm doing right now
totally :)

Nothing good lasts forever.
Nothing bad lasts forever.
Listen to this song if you want to cry. Sometimes you need a good cry.
Especially once you research the purpose and meaning behind it.

Good to know
That would be terrifying
that's scary..
This makes me see this song a lot differently now… it’s a lot more eerie and creepy but yet beautiful at the same time

Respect for deadmau5 doing this, even if he wasn't crazy important, Robert was still one of us. rest easy buddy.

This is true electronic music. Deadmau5 is a modern day Mozart...

WOOOOOO! That's a bit too much, but he's definitely the Mozart of electronic music
+WOOOOOO! Amen
Might be an exaggeration there, but he is the misunderstood musical genius of our time
I recently lost one of my friends to suicide
And I feel Indescribably bad knowing I failed to save their life
I hope he’s in a better place now
You still did your best to help this person. Man can not prevent every tragedy, but always trying is important. Keep going.
@@FirewolfClash its all my fucking fault...
Thanks to me many people are grieving
This is one of my favorite pieces of music ever. It's amazing how the same melody repeated over and over can have such a huge emotional impact.
It's not the notes themselves, it's how they're toned out. That sad depressing synth can make any progression have that certain feel.
This song is a portrayal of the 5 stages of grief/how it feels to lose a loved one.
As the song progresses, this is what each section of the song reminds me of.
1. Denial - 0:00
You are lost. You feel empty, overwhelmed, nothing makes sense.
2. Anger - 0:25
You question yourself: Why didn't I spend more time with this person? Why me? Why didn't I do something about this earlier?
3. Bargaining - 1:33
You will do anything to get that person back. You want your loved one restored.
4. Depression - 3:36
You feel emptiness once again. It lasts forever. Why go on in life? Is there any point?
5. Acceptance - 5:25
You must live in a world without your loved one. It is the new norm you need to accept. The person will always be in your heart.
I can't describe what this song makes me feel. I am extremely thankful that I have not lost a loved one during my life, but I can only imagine that this song is what it feels like to go through a loss.

5 stages of grief

Appreciate the comment greatly. All the best, friend

That's great man... You've made me cry.
Pure emotion in this one. Just sit back and think.....
I miss you mom. Wish i could see you again.
Sorry for your loss bro. I know exactly how it feels. Its hard losing the people that brought you into this world, because they can never be replaced. Stay strong man.
You can if you have a picture.
I miss a lot of ppl too. Stay strong tho
Sorry for your loss. Stay strong.
Stay strong brother. ;)
Must've been very emotional for everybody when deadmau5 played this...
Everyone at a rave just starts bawling. That would be hilarious

man, I remember listening to this song on repeat when i was in the 10th grade and only 15 years old. I was texting this girl and finally mustered up the courage to tell her how I felt, always the worry of uncertainty being the biggest roadblock as a kid. Turns out she was into me and I got the text back listening to this song. It was the first time i felt something like love towards a "partner". I can still recall the feeling listening to this song now. it changed me...Anyway, the point of this comment is to say that you will never be the best version of yourself if you don't seize every opportunity you can in your life. Take a leap of faith! believe in yourself! you may have people to help you on your way but nobody is going to do it yourself. It comes down to you...YES YOU! Be the best version of yourself and you will radiate happiness until the day you die.
😿
so what happened?? don't leave us hanging like that bruh.
I lost my cat a few weeks ago, I heard this a couple months earlier than the death. I thought of this song when we had to put her down. Ever since I've been crying myself to sleep. This sort of depression inside me. It feels horrible, she was an amazing cat. 4 years of pure joy. Joel, you are amazing.

Am i the only one that wants to talk about the absolutely beautiful sound design and production on this?
That synth is on a whole new level...
I’ve been listening to this song almost every day for the past 2 years. It fills an empty void in my heart. How I interpret this song, is every memory I’ve ever had, and can remember, open in one full 5 minutes. From the start of life to the end, I believe this masterpiece is a happy one. I can genuinely see myself having a happy ending by the end of the song. Thank you deadmau5. I’ll never forget how this made me feel.
It really saved me from suicide. Thx so much man 😢😢😇😇
Funny how things work, this song makes me want to kill myself lmao
George im with u XD
Not trying to be mean but how can something sad save you from a even more sad something
@@koenfrfc the amount of sadness in this world can be overwhelming for some individuals. Even so much as to make them not want to participate in it anymore.
i hope youre doing better ❤️ stay strong for me
this will forever be my favourite deadmau5 track
This is the only song I've ever cried to
perfect music to meditate, think about life
joao paulo yes
joao paulo listen to The End by c418 to think about your life. :)
i think cry is what ure saying
0:00 - 0:20 - waiting for diagnosis
0:21 - 1:04 - oncology
1:05 - 1:33 - notification of the closest people
1:34 - 2:19 - crying too much
2:20 - 3:00 - life continues, the search for a cure
3:01 - 3:30 - "i will die like a street dog" she said
3:31 - 4:15 - pain
4:16 - 4:50 - novocaine is useless now
4:51 - 5:14 - agony
5:15 - 5:40 - goodbye mom
hope you're feeling better :(
@@nekozombie I'm good, thank you :) Mom's love, what she's given to me, motivate me to do better things, even without her.
F😥😣😔😔 its happenend to me 3 years ago
(Crying)
This fucked me up
holy fuck i know this is 2 years old but damn..
I dunno what I think of when I hear this song.
Perhaps it's sad, but also happy, like living a bittersweet moment, or maybe like a happy memory, wishing you could relive it.
I dunno. All I know is that it fills me with some deep emotions.
I miss my old friends back in Allen...
me to 😔
So true
you're right !
I think of the several times that I moved, missing the few friends that I made, that related to me, that appreciated me. I'm thinking of how lucky I am to be blessed with a wonderful life, and of how to make the best of it, how to make myself proud. How to do something that would let my future self, close to dying, look back at my life and think, I did well.
Deadmau5 is inspiration.
The sound of loneliness fills you with determination.
+Jeremiah .W no
Indeed, this music also brings me motivation
Scorpion mk2 undertale reference boi
Out of all the songs deadmau5 has made, this is my favorite. Forget the dancing, forget the fist pumping. This is that rare feeling that you get only when you know nothing can harm you, and that you're proud of who you are. And I'd say that's a hell of a lot better than dancing.
I love this song but hate how it makes me feel
Miss you pencil , you may never be found , but you will always be in my heart
This is the feeling of tears welling up, remembering beautiful places and bittersweet moments.
This song is very emotional. I LOVE it, my mind can completely relax to this masterpiece.
this song has lore, maybe you already know what happend, maybe
i miss my mom soo much right now
witness goxa me too man, she not dead she just lives over 6000 miles away from me
Me too, she left me alone in this world full of lies,
She didn't pass away but she left me when my dad passed away and she left me for the sake of another husband😭😭😭and I haven't seen her for a really long time,about 2 or 3 years,she's like a dead mother though😢
:,-(
witness goxa youre a true legend, my man.
Me too😌
well... here i am again at 12am... ready to cry my heart out not only for what i lost but for what i have.
BEST SONG EVER!!
If I'm just being honest... this song just makes me tear up.
It just makes me remember all of my young days..... makes me remember when life didn't be so hard... but as time does go on... life will get more stressful or harder.....
If you think about it... this song just makes you emotional either mentally or physically... and it just makes you remember what life was and is like now.
I just love what Deadmau5 does for his music.... and as Tim Vista said
"This is what missing someone sounds like"
Just be who you are and enjoy your life while it lasts...
We will end up being 6ft below the ground one day.
whoever reads this, have a great life..
Yeah man, I feel the exact same way about this song. I was around eight or nine when k heard this song for the first time. It’s my favorite of all time.
This song is an emotional rollercoaster. In the beginning I feel really sad and at the end I feel happy.
4:59 It's like your heart beating
i think that was what he meant. to say. if ur dead u wont hear that anymore
the magic of sidechain
When you bleed to much your heart beats really hard and fast trying to compensate the blood loss, that’s called hypovolemic shock.
I remember listening to this on the way to the airport with my Mom. She found out how my Dad had been treating me for around 2.5 years. To keep it short it was hell, abuse, food insecurity, moving from place to place, homelessness. And then it was over and this song came on, and I cried so hard. Thank you Deadmau5 for making this, it's a beautiful peace of art that has helped me process my emotions and grow better as a person. I was 12 then, now I'm 18 going on 19. Very precious memories.
Still coming back, but then again, what else could give me this feeling?
I think about my brother when listening to this song.... He's not dead or anything, he just likes Deadmau5 hehe xd
You should call him. I think I accidently............
hahahaha!!!
lol
same, except my brother actually passed. i always spaced out as i sink into reminiscence of the good ol' days.
I wish I had a brother too😅
Someone already posted this, but it's been long since flushed into the comment section, here it is again for you all to enjoy as you listen to this master piece.
i want this song to be playing on my deathbed. when it builds up i will remember all the good times i had with my friends and family and the hardships i had in between and how i overcomed it all and the struggle, blood, sweat, and determination brought me to where i lay that fateful day. and when the song drops off at 5:24 is where i slowly close my eyes and embrace the welcoming into the dimension beyond.
Life is short. There's no getting around it. But enjoy it as much as you can. You don't need money to be happy. Do what makes you happy. That's what life is for.
No Channel Access I needed this. Legit. Thx for making me think life is great.
Wow
This version is way better than the release version. The doubletime "heartbeat" on the later half of the song is superb.
my favorite song ever and it's not really close...
I've come to realize, as i am listening to it over and over again, that this song has its own language.
This is why we can't possibly describe it with words, and this song in particular is beyond art.
Music is the most precious thing we've ever been gifted.
The abyss is horrifying, yet comforting in how it can take you in when you feel your loneliest. You can't help but find some peculiar peacefulness as you push away those who love you, while managing to loathe yourself for doing it. If we keep everyone out, then they can't see our weaknesses, our flaws and imperfections.
You feel something deep in you, desperately clawing through the skull and heart to try and reach out for something more; distractions and reasons to stay around. These might be people, projects, drugs, crimes, anything to busy the mind. To keep this soothing darkness at bay. To keep it from pushing you into doing the irreversible.
Sooner or later, these distractions fade away. You find yourself being unable to feel what you define as genuine happiness and love. You start to convince yourself you're some monster. That you are unworthy of love and kindness.
You toss around in bed, on the floor, in the shower, trying to be okay. But you feel like you can't. The throat begins to swell, your eyes wettening, the sides of your mouth pulling downward, the mind is rushing with an overload of information, thoughts, memories, and images. You can't breathe.
You may find yourself doing something you wish you could take back.
There's a darkness within you that you can't describe to other people, for fear of being outcasted. You feel isolated, and unworthy of anything but the mental hell you have trapped yourself in.
But you are not alone.
If you need proof, just listen to the music, and allow yourself to feel Joel/deadmau5's pain through this track. There's a deep sorrow there, but one can almost feel at ease to know finally that they are not alone. As shitty as that sounds.
Wherever you are in your life, or how you're feeling at this moment, I hope you can get on the right track to heal.
Much love,
A rando on the internet
(P.S. I seriously recommend following this song by "Strobe". It feels like two blend into each other.)
Thanks man. All the best.
whoa..
You are never truly alone with your feelings in this world. Music is proof of that.
As someone who has never personally been a huge fan of Deadmau5’s style of music, this song is absolutely incredible in so many ways.
Man this song still moves me. I never had anything specific that connected with to this but rather the expression is how I often feel. It’s funny how sound can mirror emotion. I wonder if anyone that reads this can relate to that.
This is the sound of my feels everyday
thx scented clorox
I will love this forever, thank you Joel
Probably one of the best and most natural representations of severe depression and the pain and the unknown that comes with it.
Joel made this track to let our guys to member that fans,dead on a fucking traffic mistake before deadmau5's live.R.I.P is so emotional.
The emotions this song gives is truly amazing
Definitely one of the saddest songs of all time and that says a lot because I am the lord of sad songs
Lets take a moment to pay tribute to Meowingtons and Bobby Clifford.
I wish I could see you again, grandma. I went to your house to have lunch everyday. We talked about modern days when we turned on the computer. Don't you remember all of those pictures? Don't you remember when you showed me the internet? Please, grandma, now show me how to live without you... How to live without the one who introduced me to the world, without the one who made my childhood, without the one who made the cousins be together. Now that you're gone, they're gone too... They went with friends, and I'm alone, grandma, I'm alone... I found a friend, but my thoughts are still private. Thank you for everything, grandma. I love you.
I dedicated this song to my boyfriend, who gave me the love no one had before...
He broke up with me a week ago because of me. I keep making the same mistakes...
Same here:)
I miss my socks. Each laundry day at a time, I'm losing a pair. Fml RIP nike socks
if you want to talk, im here
I lost my socks every laundry day too... i feel for u ;-;
Delete this, you should feel shame for writing it
LOL
Memories are returning...😢😢
Like I said, this is one of those songs that makes you question your existance in the universe
RIP , My beloved Grandma. Thank you for this masterpiece , Deadmau5.This reminds me of those emotional memories i had with her........
Man thus made me cry me and my friend anthony were best friends since pre k he left in high school to a different state the last word he said before I saw him the last time is ," believe" that realy encouraged me and thanks to him im here following my dreams memories. But sometimes you have to let go of friends some day 😩😪
Gansta_Gaming facebook my dude
But you still play roblox together right?
Did you not keep in touch? Either way, it sucks to lose a friend.
Everytime I'm having a bad day or I'm just lonely. I always find myself coming to this song. I just sit here and think about all the good times i've had in my life and the reason why i should keep pushing forward and move past all of the hardships and just make myself better
Listening to this high puts me in the most peaceful state of mind. Like love, peace, calmness, and relaxation completely take over my body. It's amazing. I love it.
This makes me remember allot of things... When I needed to put my dad in jail because of my mom... When my dad cried in front of me and said he will love me forever... When he tried to buy anything he could for me... I am legit crying.. It makes me realize that my life is wrong, I tought this was normal when this happened. I remember fighting on the phone and screaming, loud, loud screaming. Me crying in my room all alone, nobody with me. eating chocolate and staring at the wall. I also remember when my boyfriend kissed his best friend in front of me... My only friend, the only one I loved. All gone in one second, being depressed the next day. Cutting myself... Feeling useless, that leads me to the internet. To find people that care, to find songs like this... Thank you... Thank you for this song, and thank you for reading..
Are you OK now?
No puedo ser el único latinoamericano que este escuchando este pedazo de tema. Está canción me hace sentir solo y libre a misma vez. No sé cómo explicarlo.
Mira la historia detrás de esta canción y te emocionara aún más.
This track truly reminds me of the love of my life and all the great memories we had together. God I miss her.. never take the one you care about the most for granted, never.
Most emotional and beautiful track ever! That track heal the soul!
I’ll have to admit it. I originally liked the while 1
Sometimes words can't describe how you feel. Music can.
This song makes me sad, but at the same time it motivates me
Same
Imagine being so good at making music that you give people feels with no words at all
And now... A little poetry.
With the mist that covers my feet, the friends that I hold dear, one day again we'll meet, and burst to tears, allow me the chance to see that who you were then is truly to be.
Is this you? Is this the ice or the storm? If not you then who? The ice we see is cold in form. This is the mist which covers my feet, my soul. Is it you my friend? Have you come with dice, yet again to roll?
I used to live north of Paris (I now live in Belgium). There has been many terrorist attacks there recently and my parents worried about my safety there. They wanted me to leave there. So I would travel to parts of Europe to see what place I would move there. The last day I was in Paris, I listened to this song, knowing that I would have to leave a place that I have stayed for many years. This song always makes my memory drown away and the only thing I know is the song. This is one of the best EDM song of all time.
Idk what it is about this song. I always find my self gritting my teeth staring into the abyss with no thoughts. God I miss you Felicia why is it always car accidents...
This reminds me of the fact that I'll never be able to go back to memories, you think about them and you get happy because you remember how wonderful they were but you really want to do them again so you realize you can't. And then it hits you that every good thing that happens in your life can't be re-visited, and every time you try it just makes you long for better times even more. You can't remake something as beautiful as a good memory, but you can always look at them again, some of the most beautiful things in life cannot be touched or bought or even seen. Some things are just so perfect that they are just there to remind you that you are never going to acheive happieness out of things, and I know this sounds cheesy but it's true. If it wasint for these things no matter what they are, the world would not have value.
I get your trying to say something deep but uhhh...."you can always look back to them" then follow up with "some of the most beautiful things cannot bee seen..." you contradict.
The low growly tones in this song perfectly describes what an anxiety attack *sounds* like
and the sound at the end describes panic attacks.
How is it possible to be as good of a producer as you, to create a song that just makes me feel like a hole is torn in my soul, like a mental stab right in my heart.
No matter how I'm feeling this song always makes me cry.
No words can describe this properly 🥺
