thank you brian and adam for more than i could ever explain. there are so many nights i thought i wouldn’t never get through if it wasn’t for the beautiful work you two made. ❤️❤️ rest in peace
Feels like I've watched this video hundreds of times. I was a child in South Carolina and this song pulls old memories out of my head. Now I live far away from rich deep forests. When I get homesick I come back here. I can smell the humidity, moss and dirt like I'm there. For a little over 18 minutes my homesickness fades. Thank you for this wonderful video. Love and peace to all out there.
I was listening to this the other night in my dark room and it totally ceased to be a song and became more a space rather than sounds. I listen to alot of drone music but something about this track in particular. That night, this song seeped into all of the other sensory systems in my brain and became an experience.
caseystu123 you are so right about the song becoming a space. That description is spot on! I find myself drawn to this song also. I'm mesmerized. I also listen to a lot of drone music. For decades, really. Brian Eno is my blood type. I'm also a poet. But this song. It's as if something is glacially moving. I can listen to myself in the music. I feel a gnostic headband. I guess SOTL are over...no new cd. I'd see them in concert on the desert salt flats. You could hear their drones for miles in the canyons. A soundtrack for the day. What God decides to play for the planet that afternoon. The music is the Buddha!s stare.
I used to listen to this song all the time late at night. It's been a while but I just happened upon it again and have to say this video is damn near perfect. It captures that sense of infinity the song evokes - as if you were melting into the world and could feel your whole life, every single little forgotten moment, emotion, thought, kiss, desire, ambition, regret within you, like a long breath outstretching to gasp in the very corners of time and space, and all at once your life and your dreams and your world unfolds before you, endlessly, forever.
@@fleaship6134 i can relate. some years ago i realized that my desire wasnt to disappear from this world, but from society. i turned to nature and slowly found the meaning and sense of being that i haven't felt in a very long time... i hope youre feeling better and youre never alone
This may be one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded. It reminds me, in a sense, of Harold Budd's "Bismilahi Rahman ar Rahim" in it's sheer scale of overpowering cosmic bliss and wonderment.
Just discovered SotL today. What a nice break from what I normally listen to! Great visuals. Reminds me of my childhood, riding in the back seat on a road trip looking up at the trees.
+Matt Fitzpatrick It seemed so normal, did it not? We became used to it as kids, because we grew up with being driven around in cars. Deep down I knew that there was something magnificent going on. It's something that, biologically, humans were not really meant to experience, and yet, here we are. Back then, as a child, I did not have the ability to put it into words like I do now. Thank you for putting that memory back into my mind.
It kinda reminds me of the Spyro homeworld soundtracks, they were always peaceful and seemed so dreamlike. Hearing this really brings me back to my childhood when I was still around my cousins and old friends, but sadly nothing ever stays the same. Never thought such a random suggestion from UA-cam would lead me to think back into the past like this... just listening to this does wonders! The comments demonstrate that
we are on a ball in space. why are we here? everytime i look up into the sky i see a fire burning, far away, but still close enough to touch it. i see other animals look up into the sky too, like they are thinking the same thing. i feel like a child, and i am old.
Speaks something more true and pure of consciousness. Above the limitations we often feel but do not truly know. Something more pure in tone than the one to shout and explode at curiosity of existence. Perhaps greater than their own fear can handle - but what is fear - an electrically stimulated emotion and physical brain - in terms of wondering where we truly came from or truly go after.
Don't think that way, it's not smart. Just try to get inside Heaven, look up and to the future. Earth has nothing for you, what you may think you can get from other time God have that multiply for you in Heaven. Peace and God bless you.
This is art. It moves me and relaxes me. It helps me get through a difficult period. It reminds me how in the end we are one with nature and the universe. It gives me perspective and makes me realize my "problems" are not so bad and shouldn't affect me after all. Thank you so much for that wonderful little gem. I needed to write a comment after watching it so many times.
this song brings me at peace when everything isn't going to well or if life is just being difficult it's best to keep yourself happy and at peace for who knows what will happen at the end of it all i wish is to see my love one again but for now i will continue my long and hard journey to get to where i am to where i want to go maybe ill die later but for now ill embrace my peace and let everyone else have there's for i will always find myself in a state of loneliness but that doesn't mean i should be on my knees and wait for it to all end rather i will do my best to continue the life i have now but if its my time to leave this beautiful land so be it ill rejoice in happiness to say goodbye one last time but i will be sad for the ones i leave behind ill miss them so much but ill see my old ones again and there ill finally have my peace forever but the i cannot say for shear where ill end up but that is another story for me to find later in life thank you and may you live a life of happiness

Stars of the Lid is more than a reflection of an era. It’s a phantom asteroid who returns to set his sights on sound art. A decadent wave laden with paradoxes from which obscurantism and the irrational escape, hypnotic factors defying vulnerable souls in search of the infinity. This sound architecture is an translucid and short tunnel that leads to light
Nice video! Reminds me of the drive in western Montana or Lake Superior in Minnesota. Ballasted Orchestra was a pretty dark album and I feel that this song is a fitting ending, It feels like you've made it out of an unpleasant event.
This song is just flawless. Makes me think about the Yndi Halda album "Enjoy Eternal Bliss", that's quite what it is: eternal bliss. Stars of the lid are huge music and dream producers
A brilliant piece of music that doesn't need describing, just listening to it says it all. Absolutely stunning. The video for this is really mesmerising. Anyone coming across this should also listen to "I will surround you" from Avec Laudenum. I often back to back these two tracks. Thanks Jonathan for uploading.
The producer of this video was able to catch e.x.a.c.t.l.y. how I view the world and everything around me. And this song, being forever blissful, how I feel when I look at things.
Sitting in my bed just thinking how I get sleep Cause my problems don’t let me rest But my mind was chill while I was thinking how I resolve my problems
Wow...how would you categorize this music; to what genre would you say this music belongs? I'd love to find more similar to this. It is hypnotic...meditative. It is an instrumental piece without drums! I wouldn't have imagined this would be my kind of sound - how wrong. I love it!! I have to do some searching on UTube for more from this particular artist and more music like this!!
Everytime this track starts i look at my dog and he laughs at me and with me. WE GAZE ENDLESSLY into eachothers eyes, him into my soul - me into his - we are beasts of different breeds but still we understand this music, my dog has his tail begin to WAG TO THE FREAKING BEAT of this song... irreparably magical... quintaessencial soul. I laugh and laugh and laugh beforei cannot stop anymore and I begin to shoot my goo so damn hard it hurts and breaks me into pieces.... dont be like me,, keep in contact'' with family, stay happy, no more microwave dinners and less SODIUM, people talk about sodium like some kinda freaking MIRACLE DRUG but dont freaking put that shit in your veins or youll LITERALLY DIE.
To me, this piece has a “euphoric feeling while driving home from somewhere special” feeling, as well as a “dawn of a new age after the apocalypse” vibe. I like it.

My favorite track by them. RIP Brian.
Dang, It's sad to hear about his passing. Thank you Brian for the years of peace your music has brought me and the years to come.
thank you brian and adam for more than i could ever explain. there are so many nights i thought i wouldn’t never get through if it wasn’t for the beautiful work you two made. ❤️❤️ rest in peace
RIP Mr McBride. The haunted beauty of this track only means more now....
My favourite piece of music of all time. RIP Brian
Rest In Peace to the master.
This is one of the most awe-inspiring tracks I have ever listened to.
Everytime this track stops I'm here like "come on how can 18 minutes be so short?" Pure and eternal bliss
I feel you.
Feels like I've watched this video hundreds of times. I was a child in South Carolina and this song pulls old memories out of my head. Now I live far away from rich deep forests.

Become a child again, in the back seat, floating through, looking up, in a dream.
I wish
relinquish the parents
I wish I can die

Yeah, "songs" are not what this music is, is it? :-)
Did I just die and go to heaven? Because this song will be playing there..
Simply WOW.
Timeless. Stars will surely be viewed as one of the greatest artists of our time.
Possibly the greatest song of all time.

:') well said bebe
and the words move into emotion, emotion that is warmed and swollen into the eyes, for a moment, a moment sublime. Beautifully said.
This song is infinity
This track has gotten me through many dark times in my life
Same here friend.. .
Yeah it's getting me through the darkest moment in my life so far, I can't stop contemplating suicide :(

Hope you’ve been enjoying :)
I'm so happy I found this band a few days ago. I feel so much peace from listening to them.

There was a homeworld in the second game called "autumn castle" or something like that, definitely reminds me of this.

When I watch this video I get so relaxed. At night I listen to this song and stare at the stars very well done
it must be said. this is their best song.

The music makes it seem like the video is in full color.
holy shit. i really thought it was in full color till i saw this comment.
and sometimes I wish there was a time that I could return to, but I know I'll never get it back...
man i feel this so heavy

It's not easy to get into the awesome zone of UA-cam...
A favorite SoTL track, and great imagery to go with it! Thanks!
The glistening sound at 7:11 feels like a crack in my soul is being plastered over.
This song makes me think. It brings memories of a time where life seemed simpler, almost to the point of tears, but in a positive way.
This makes me know everything is going be alright. It just calms me down and puts me at peace.

this made me think deeply from my heart lungs throat to my brain :O
This is like liquidized crystal in my ears. Too beautiful for words. Selenite in audio form.
Beautiful...
the sky is just a picture
goodbye forever beatiful pines...
Thank you.

Interesting, i think of dying instead.
I actually can only listen to this stuff when I'm happy, which is most of the time actually, blissful as you say.
Helps me when I'm super stressed!
Myself and Shaun both like this song
Who's Shaun?
can't remember how I vfound this.
Me too, Both SOTL and AWFTS ... maybe on one of my Pandora lists
this. is. amazing
One of the songs I would die to
I already slept with it. Good times
Es tan hermoso like a dream! ✨
awesome.
Sitting in my bed just thinking how I get sleep
Cause my problems don’t let me rest
But my mind was chill while I was thinking how I resolve my problems
amazing
drove across america, never noticed, though when i was snowboarding in colorado it was exactly this
Magnificent!!

Perfect for study

Cool little art piece.
Takes me to the other place
This video and playlist helped me discover this track on an album in my library. So too. Definitely resonates it felt too short
Alas, UA-cam is a beautiful place again.

best song for a good entheogens session :) , thanks!
Happy 25th anniversary!
The video is actually pretty good with that tv stuff in between.
You have some talent Jonathan. Very trippy video. Looks like is was filmed on Foresthill Divide or Iron Mountain Road.
sounds like the windows 98 startup slowed down times 9000
I love to listen to this late night driving at high speeds folding the fabric of space time.

good for asana
To me, this piece has a “euphoric feeling while driving home from somewhere special” feeling, as well as a “dawn of a new age after the apocalypse” vibe. I like it.
Makes me want to float upward from the Earth so I may reach space and suffocate.
the closest sound to HEAVEN on earth
