Commenting 17 years later. The ending of greet death STILL gives me chills. Will never get sick of it. Seen these guys so many times. They never disappoint
Remembering putting this video on my Myspace page back in the day. I loved this performance then and I still love it now in 2022. Hope another soul finds this comment on a video that has slowly been forgotten by time...
This will be my favorite band until the end of time. The music creates memories and feelings that nothing else could. Their music has gotten me through the best and toughest times of my life.
Yashin the light. Gets me every fucking time. I remember finding this around 2006 or 07. And was amazed my EX got me into them. And she's the only thing I see when I hear them. Fun fact I saw smashing pumpkins in 07 and didnt know who the opening band was. And when my dad found out and was saying " lights in the sky???" I just screamed in the car "Explosion in the sky?" And I was so happy to find out they were playing. What an awesome show they both were.
this is the BEST SONG EVER! it makes me cry, and reminds me of snowfall and watching sped up film of people in big cities and cars on the highway at night
I love how patient they are with their song devolpment. They don't rush into anything. They let each idea play out naturally, and as a result, at all times you feel fulfilled listening to them. It's amazing. There are no boring parts, yet look how soft most of the song is. They are something else...
I wrote a comment here YEARS ago, maybe like 5 years ago, this was the first EITS song i've ever HEARD, and OMG, my life could not be complete without this band.
I see these guys yesterday in Glasgow, they are f****** awesome, they put so much energy into playing and they are so powerfull, they rocked the Barrowlands, Texas should be proud of these lads.
just barly got into this band a couple of months ago. by far best instrumental band i have heard. one day when i see these guys i gonna make love all of them.
Well, I guess you can always discover old songs from your favourite band. Thanks for posting this obscure gem of a live. Ps: for those wondering like me, the second track is called The Long Spring and is available on Spotify.
Crazy. As soon as the drums first came in on Yasmin the light I tasted orange trident gum in my mouth. We used to chew orange trident and listen to explosions when we took ecstasy when I was in high school over 15 years ago. 😂 Crazy how certain sounds can transport you back to such specific moments. This is magical music
Totally agree with you and know what you mean. Deep down, Yasmin the Light is filled pure beauty. If I'm in the right mood, I could almost shed a tear.
Thats the point of this music, that no matter what is going on in your life you can connect this music to whatever.. Without words its leaves the meaning of the song up to you, So if it reminds you of your girlfriend, a death that was close to you, or it can make you feel closer to god... Thats why they are my favorite band, They have absolutely everything to do with making beautiful music, and nothing to do with any message or agenda. just listen and enjoy. :)
im so glad i found this band. if you have trouble sleeping at night just listen to them...ure mind will be soothed into the dream world in no time and you will sleep like a baby. its also good for driving late at night.
This is my second or third time hearing of Explosions in the Sky, and even though I didn't know of them when I was younger, it makes me think back to the good times as a child. This song is truly wonderful!
I feel the same way. All the years I have been listening to them and the feeling I get everytime I listen to any of their songs is nothing short of immaculate. I saw them friday night and it was the best show i've ever been to, my head just bobbed in unison with the music the entire night, they are so beautiful.
I with you man. I honestly think these guys are finally be recognized by more and more people through out 2007 and 2009. Any one going to their LA show?
Been listening to EitS for years now... and Yasmin the Light will forever be near the top of my favorite songs ever, just under First Breath After Coma...
you can't help but feel the fucking passion inside them. look at the god damn drummer. he has such a unique style of drumming. i get the chills watching him play that damn set, and jsut from everyone of their songs.
Explosions in the Sky is easily the most incredible thing I have ever listened too. They just deliver such incredible music. It all flows together so well man they get me hyped.
So perfect... this music provides some sort of strange harmony and tranquility deep inside of my brain, somehow all chaos turns into order (or at least it gives that illusion)
i've only recently gotten into EITS (maybe about 2 yrs ago) but i absolutely love them. their music just makes me sit back and close my eyes and really LISTEN. it really pulls at your different emotions. i'd love to see them live someday.
beautiful. i'll give you more of a hand than the people watching this show did. lovely stuff. gotta love watching the guitarists and the drummer's hands playing on beat... good stuff
I saw them in Barcelona last November and felt in love with them despite not knowing a lot from there. Now Im gonna see them in May again and perhaps before in Bruxelles; one of the best live acts Ive ever seen...an awesome experience
My god they give good reason to listen to music at least their music anyways its sooo amazing its all too real to be just good its Great and then some I adore this band forever and always.
i wish i lived in texas so i could have followed them right from the start. i just went to a concert today in central park, and it was amazing, but i wish i had this intimacy
f yeh...the first time i saw them play in '02 some people were walking away with there hands over there ears. cause it was so loud i guess... that always makes me smile :) the past few shows have not been quite as loud.
Wow, these are three of the least heard songs it seem yet have already became 3 of my favourite, This is easily the best set of any music i have ever seen. 3 truely brilliant songs.
in mexico, where i live, explosions in the sky are so rare and the most people say that their music is ugly and boring, but i say they're like a genius in the music. i have 3 albums of them and it's imposible get the other, here in mexico. god damn it. lol
this band never ceases to amaze me, every time i listen to them , i get constant chills and tears of insight and enlightenment are brought to my eyes, fuckin amazing! you are by far my favorite band of all time, and i am very musically inclined. thank you i fuckin love you guys!
I'm downloading this just in case youtube deletes it or something. I must save this for future generations
Agerian Thank you
Still up, and available for viewing for kids like me who are big explosions in the sky fans.
Still here. 🙏 This should be preserved by the US Library of Congress as a vital cultural artifact.
😂😂🤟🏾🤟🏾🤟🏾

I just watched them live. It is a transcendental experience. I am glad I had the chance to finally hear them live. Thank you.
imagine uploading 21mins long vid in 2006
yes
I really like the drummer's style. He knows how to complement the band well.
Explosions in the Sky is living proof that you don't need words to feel great emotion during a song...
they're amazing...
This was my first exposure to Explosions and is still (IMHO) the bar for Yasmin the Light. I'm so glad my buddy sent me this link 15 years ago!
The most outstanding Rock band for me in the world
every strum, every chord simply tugs at my heart. words could never compare to the way this band has made me felt.
stumbling upon this 12 years ago and this video still speaks to me
Explosions In The Sky👍🔥...(My favorite band)...Always...Around 2003...When I tried to hear this band...Awesome...Post Rock👍🔥
Some of the best to ever do it. Their earlier material is untouchable.
Still coming back after a decade :)
rayanne liu Same :)
I used to watch this in my dorm room in college about 6 months after it was posted ☺️
I remember downloading this video off of that unofficial fanpage back in like, I want to say 2004. I'm so so glad I've stumbled upon it again

I first watched this in 2007 and I HAVE FOUND IT AGAIN. YES!!! Seeing them live next month for the nth time!
hii，2023, this song still touching my heart
to the five people that were in the audience; be grateful that you got to see a gig that over 370000 people have watched since
this is the BEST SONG EVER! it makes me cry, and reminds me of snowfall and watching sped up film of people in big cities and cars on the highway at night
Absolutely incredible seeing this snapshot in time of these early years.
By far the best version of Yasmin the Light I've ever heard!
they were already in a league of their own back then.
11 Years later... Still watching and loving this gig! ♥
I love how patient they are with their song devolpment. They don't rush into anything. They let each idea play out naturally, and as a result, at all times you feel fulfilled listening to them. It's amazing. There are no boring parts, yet look how soft most of the song is. They are something else...
This will never not be legendary. Love these guys
I wrote a comment here YEARS ago, maybe like 5 years ago, this was the first EITS song i've ever HEARD, and OMG, my life could not be complete without this band.
last time i saw this video i didn’t think it was pixelated. time has flown, i used to watch this video often.
there is more feeling and emotion in this music than any other i have heard, and there is no words. that is a truly amazing thing to do.
Sick version of "Yasmin The light"
These guys are awesome!
I saw them live at Coachella last year, they were amazing.
I see these guys yesterday in Glasgow, they are f****** awesome, they put so much energy into playing and they are so powerfull, they rocked the Barrowlands, Texas should be proud of these lads.
just barly got into this band a couple of months ago. by far best instrumental band i have heard. one day when i see these guys i gonna make love all of them.

Greet Death never ceases to amaze me.
Saw them for the 1st time recently on Austin City Limits. Blew me away! I love it when every once in awhile I just fall in love with a band!
Totally agree with you and know what you mean. Deep down, Yasmin the Light is filled pure beauty. If I'm in the right mood, I could almost shed a tear.
It always impress me how they can express feelings without a word. By far the best rock band i've heard in years.
Thats the point of this music, that no matter what is going on in your life you can connect this music to whatever..

just found this clip! Golden moments.
In Spain we love them too, this music really needs to be spread all around the world.
I've concluded that this band is the best band ever.
Im 100% sure if the whole world heard this, world peace can be achieved
I can't sleep without listening to this performance first, in its entirety.
WHO STILL HERE IN 2026
amazing, once more to the afterlife is one of the best songs by explosions i'd say
Is it 14 years already? Damn... 14 years of my feelings just loving this I guess!
Powerful and intense and filled to the brim with love and passion. This band is exactly like the woman of my dreams, and I love them both!
im so glad i found this band. if you have trouble sleeping at night just listen to them...ure mind will be soothed into the dream world in no time and you will sleep like a baby.
its also good for driving late at night.
0:00 Yasmin The Light
7:08 The Long Spring
13:15 Greet Death
that's how you know they're amazing musicians, they'd play the same amazing set for 5 people as they would for 500,000
1000 of these views are probably from me
This is my second or third time hearing of Explosions in the Sky, and even though I didn't know of them when I was younger, it makes me think back to the good times as a child. This song is truly wonderful!
damb good percussionist he really mixes it up & i like that! talented youngster just might be an understatement
Favorite band of all time

Sometimes I have faith in humanity, but then I read UA-cam comments.
Excellent music.
Been listening to EitS for years now... and Yasmin the Light will forever be near the top of my favorite songs ever, just under First Breath After Coma...
they look so humble, but create these amazing sounds.
i love you, all of you.
you guys are rad, and make colors become way more vivid.
you can't help but feel the fucking passion inside them.
look at the god damn drummer. he has such a unique style of drumming. i get the chills watching him play that damn set, and jsut from everyone of their songs.
*sighs* so gorgeous... greatest band to ever set foot on this earth....just wow!
Explosions in the Sky is easily the most incredible thing I have ever listened too. They just deliver such incredible music. It all flows together so well

Yo los conocí con este video allá por 2008, grandes recuerdos. Hasta la fecha regreso de vez en cuando a recordar con esta música chingona de fondo
Felt a chill down my spine. So atmospheric and artistic.
I saw them in Barcelona last November and felt in love with them despite not knowing a lot from there. Now Im gonna see them in May again and perhaps before in Bruxelles; one of the best live acts Ive ever seen...an awesome experience
My god they give good reason to listen to music at least their music anyways its sooo amazing its all too real to be just good its Great and then some I adore this band forever and always.
I usually put this on when I am tooling around the house. I love their live shows...amazing to watch. These guys are TIGHT.
Very rare footage and cool performance. I would of die to see EITS in a small space before they gained their success by packing out venues.
EXCEPTIONNEL!!!!! je ne le dirai amais assez ! ce sont dessuper zicos avec un son de ouf!!! j' ADORE!
saw these guys in amsterdam back in november! what a gig :) what a band!
i wish i lived in texas so i could have followed them right from the start. i just went to a concert today in central park, and it was amazing, but i wish i had this intimacy
This band put on the greatest live performance I have ever seen. . .
Because of you guys I bought electric guitar. You are great!
I saw them in Salt Lake City on monday! Prepare to feel every emotion known to mankind. Their music is so powerful and pure.
f yeh...the first time i saw them play in '02 some people were walking away with there hands over there ears. cause it was so loud i guess... that always makes me smile :) the past few shows have not been quite as loud.
I Love this song, they way it builds up to that drum roll is f'ing amazing
I'm getting goosebumps listening to this. It's so powerful.
I just saw them in Paris yesterday : it was by far the best live show I've ever seen !!
Explosions In The Sky is incredible !!
Do it...don't look at others and waste energy on thinking what THEY are doing...use your energy for YOUR music and YOUR band....simply do it...
So So So good they blow me away.
Je me répète ... leur musique est magique tant elle est belle!
merci/merci pour ce beau moment passé avec eux!
Brilliant.
I hope they come to the UK soon.
Thanks for posting.
i love how they just keep the song goin to get ready for the next song...
