Instead of thinking you missed out on the awesomeness, realize you have opportunities to make your own memories. Don't try to capture them as clips on your phone but actually go out and live your life. Words of wisdom from a guy who turned 15 in 1980 and had fun making his own memories instead of trying to capture someone else's.
This song catches perfectly the spirit of a time when people were in the habit of dreaming and imaginig a magical future far away from the one we finally got
@Smoked Bear What's changing for the better currently? White people are experiencing genocide. Anything you know and love will be gone if that happens.
Got a transfer at my job and I'm finally moving to Florida. I plan on blasting stuff like this in my car late at night as I cruise along the coast. And yes, I'll be wearing a white suit with a pastel shirt.
I've been listening to this song religiously for the past 6 months. That fucking sax is epic beyond the fucking limits. Panties are flooding worldwide because of that sax.
I can attest to this. I saw them live in Denmark when they came through here last. I didn't realise the saxman was walking around the crowd while playing until he was next to me and saxed all over me. I instantly grew a pair of panties just so I could soak them.
This song is more 80s, than the 80's... because it combines all those best elements. Electronic beats, an amazing sax, a hypnotic singers voice, heart and soul, plus a VHS-(quality)-video... Living the dream. I just grew a moustache and breast hair, took my white suit and sailing shoes (of course without socks....), started the engine of my Lincoln Confidential, opened the windows... and drove off into sunset, following the coastline...
I’m assuming the whole video is from the 80’s. Different car companies out these out. Just saying that because General Motors out out the one for the Corvette before the C4 came out.
I've been listening to this song on and off for the past 6 hours today...I have yet to get bored to any part of this song. Days of Thunder is love, Days of Thunder is life.
I was born in the 80s. I clearly remember really enjoying synth wave which was more like a new wave for that time. I was amazed at how everything sounded so good. I wondered how the music was made. I felt so sad when everything moved to grunge, heavy metal and EDM in the 90s. I never knew why at that time and couldn't fathom how such a fascinating genre like synth wave could fade away. Now I make my own synth wave music and I realize, 80s synth wave was truly superior in so many ways and it feels so good that it is back!
If I hadn't seen the release date I might have thought this came out in the 80's! The fact that it is recent makes it more awesome, thank you for this song
So 80s-like : Cool cars, guys with staches, ladies with style and of course someone plays a fantastic sax solo in the background, simply said : Gorgeous!
Love is a setting sun Is a smoking gun Is a 4 letter word I hope it hurts Love is a fatal flaw Is a broken jaw Is a burning bridge Move your hips And the ghost of the boulevard Littered with lonely hearts The city like a graveyard Once was a postcard When you lose your wonder And you can’t remember When we were… Living in the days of thunder Living in the days of thunder Living in the days of thunder Living in the days of thunder Living in the days of… Love was a dream to have Was a kingsize bed Was an escape plan Was an open hand Now it’s a dog from hell It’s a dream you sell It’s an epitaph It’s a photograph And the ghost of the boulevard Littered with lonely hearts The city like a graveyard Once was a postcard When you lose your wonder And you can’t remember When we were… Living in the days of thunder Living in the days of thunder Living in the days of thunder Living in the days of thunder Living in the days of… Living in the days of thunder Living in the days of thunder Living in the days of thunder Living in the days of thunder Living in the days of…
I cant express in words the feels that wash over me when i hop in my 2015 Chevy Camaro SS and i crank this song....i tear up every time cuz its something i never thought i would get the chance to do. and now seeing the video for the first time, and seeing other comments, i tear up again cuz though my passenger seat might be empty, i know im not as alone as i thought i was. yall like synthwave and hot rods just like me and it makes me happier than i know how to say
The beginning of this song kinda reminds me of the beginning of "Boys of Summer". This band honors the 80s sound in many ways, great and subtle. Also, the Dodge Daytona (Turbo Z model) was my dad's dream car in the 80s. But he bought a Ford Ranger instead. That was a good truck, but there was always an impeller shaped hole in dad's heart, a forced induction of regret, that pressurizes his soul to this very day.
I’ve been listening to your music on repeat the past couple years, you guys have gotten me thru so much. Currently using you as inspiration to push thru my health conditions and work out to some sick beats. Is keeping me motivated!Thanks from the bottom of my heart.
This was the first song I listened to from you all. You all manage to cut through to so many emotions and memories that every song feels therapeutic. A song that I thought was just about racing or whatever actually turned out to be one of the most personal bands ive ever listened to. And you all help on a daily basis. You all have shown so many that from the darkness to the light, we'll always have The Midnight.
I can agree to this statement. I grew up in the 1980s, and spent my teen years in the early to mid 1990s, and have a wide range of music love, and hearing these types of songs always brought back memories and love for the mid to late 1980s music I remember as a kid ❤
When I found this track, I had it on repeat for almost 6 or 7 hours while I walked around the streets of Melbourne, Australia, until I'd walked so far down the river that I ended up at the docks, where I simply sat on the concrete waterfront and reminisced my own life of music and travel. Now I search the web, hoping that I'll one day see that they're performing in Melbourne 🕺💃
I want to thank The Midnight... for setting the spark for a dream in me. I am writing something at the moment and I base my storylines on lyrics I hear, characters I imagine... and its like my ideas have been in my head all along, but the midnight have just pushed me in the right direction. Legit listened to this like 30 times in the last few days. The description for the term mono no aware or whatever is so accurate. Love them. LOVE! Love them too much to share the music with anyone else...
5 years ago I started looking, I knew there has to be music like this. I spent almost 2 years searching for it and then I found it. ''Trevor Something - fade away'' the next recommended song was Sunset. You guys changed my life. 2 years ago in Berlin concert singing Sunset chorus was something else. You don't imagine how many fans you have in Lithuania.
Oh wow, this video has revived my childhood crush on the Corvette C4. That's exactly what I was fantasizing about back then. Driving around in that beast, and going through all kinds of adventures with this type of music in the background.
i'm very particular in my taste when it comes to vocals, especially so in retro synth wave music, but man...you're one of those rare exceptions where the vocals actually add in a major way, instead of detract. so i'd love to hear more stuff, glad i came across this and "Gloria".
Maybe not then but if we continue with the trend( that i am noticing ) it will be much sooner then that. As I call it saudade or a feeling of being lost in thought as what was from the past we have a nostalgic memory for that we never were apart of.
Imagine loosing your dad and this comes on randomly and this is the song that brings memories when you both worked on mustangs and now in his clothes and his car…. The song hits
I discovered you guys back in 2016 and this is one of my favorite songs. Four years later and I still listen to it pretty regularly. Please never stop being awesome and keep up the amazing work.
My bro and me in car, going 90 miles down the freeway blasting this on speakers, singing and not caring for a single thing in our life just for that little fucking moment is priceless moments. Right there and then you learn how to love to live man.
I recently came across the midnight and goddamn i cant stop myself from listening to all their songs... what the hell was i doing all the time? I was fucking missing out on this awesomeness.
My favorite song. Thanks for being amazing. Your music takes me to another place. I’m going through chemo treatment right now and I just don’t feel any pain when I listen to your music. Thank you ❤️
Here to remind you, reader, you are the main character of your story - you're worth it, and you deserve to have a wonderful day, regardless of anything you're stressing over. Relax to the Sax, and have a great weekend!
The midnight is just the 80's for us 90's kids who missed all the awesomeness.
And 2000s kids who missed out, basically for everyone who missed out
We didn't miss all of it, nothing beats this guys music with a night cruise in an old 80's shitbox that still runs good
So true

The fact that this is in 480p just gives it the final touch that makes it perfect
Этот клип должен быть среди той информации, что астрономы отправляют в другие звёздные системы на поиск инопланетной, разумной жизни.

You, sir, win the award for best comment of all time and you are king amongst men!
Thanks man
Can attest to this 😍
Religiously 🙄🙄

This song is a perfect escape from the modern present. Always brings me good mood.

Thank you for your support!
I love this one as well but it's criminal how underrated Crystalline is.@@themidnightofficial
More sax please!@@themidnightofficial
This track has taken my heart and soul. I only get them back when I hear it.
The only solution is endless repeat. Fixed!
BANGER🎉 the midnight was the best concert i ever attended ❤

That's the 80'sflair
Makes me nostalgic for a time I barely remember.
I love how the midnight is slowly becoming popular. They deserve it ❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely MUTILATED the replay button
saaaaaaaaame, for several days now
"Fatality!"
Everybody: "The 80s are never coming back"
The Midnight: "hold my beer"
Hold My ZIMA
Coors to be exact! 😂
Haha yes!
Hold my Miami Wine Cooler
Kkkkk
Love is a setting sun
Is a smoking gun
Is a 4 letter word
I hope it hurts
Love is a fatal flaw
Is a broken jaw
Is a burning bridge
Move your hips
And the ghost of the boulevard
Littered with lonely hearts
The city like a graveyard
Once was a postcard
When you lose your wonder
And you can’t remember
When we were…
Living in the days of thunder
Living in the days of thunder
Living in the days of thunder
Living in the days of thunder
Living in the days of…
Love was a dream to have
Was a kingsize bed
Was an escape plan
Was an open hand
Now it’s a dog from hell
It’s a dream you sell
It’s an epitaph
It’s a photograph
And the ghost of the boulevard
Littered with lonely hearts
The city like a graveyard
Once was a postcard
When you lose your wonder
And you can’t remember
When we were…
Living in the days of thunder
Living in the days of thunder
Living in the days of thunder
Living in the days of thunder
Living in the days of…
Living in the days of thunder
Living in the days of thunder
Living in the days of thunder
Living in the days of thunder
Living in the days of…

No. It's a car commercial for Pontiac. The other one is Dodge.

There are at least 4 vehicles shown here - Corvette, Daytona, Trans AM and Datsun Fairlady (Z car)...

Exactly what I thought Boys of Summer. Same demo. By the way, which movie is the clip from
That corvette lol. Amazing 80s amazing ad.
The 280 wasn't bad either

@crucialcatalyst are these clips from a movie?
I love this group, so original, I dream awake, their music is magic
Driving a sportscar southbound towards LA on the Pacific coast highway... at sunset... in late july.... any year... is the essence of this song.
The Midnight music just takes you back to that beautiful era that's lost now
I can agree to this statement. I grew up in the 1980s, and spent my teen years in the early to mid 1990s, and have a wide range of music love, and hearing these types of songs always brought back memories and love for the mid to late 1980s music I remember as a kid ❤
It's not lost if it is inside me. And judging from the massive 80s-90s asthetics comeback, it is inside of many people.
An era more beautiful in memory and dreams than history. An art piece made only of good memories
The Midnight will be 99% of the music I'll be listening to while playing Cyberpunk 2077.
YES !
HYPE
absolutely, i was honestly expecting they'd go with this genre, but they decided on something else, no matter
2077%
good taste
Amazing track! that sax is so hot!
I can't express how much I love this song.

It's about greatness. You guys have created something beyond music. will never forget this song!!!
Never been so proud of being born in the 80's like that.
i dont understand. how does this band sound so pure , so clear . how.
Because they're a modern-day band (two guys, a folk singer and an audio engineer), this is not a remastered track from the actual 80's...
Ok . . ??? Lol that's not what I ment but ok
This literally gives me shivers. Can't not feel happy when listening to this 🤩
If you liked this one, you'll love 'Gloria' too.
can't get over that sax :D and that datsun 280zx ofc
dude on the sax making miracles. Just got this on vinyl. Speechless.
This is one of those songs that should have 100,000,000 views. Seriously
That Turbo 5.9 TranAm with the Eagle decal on the hood! and that red "Knight Rider" TransAm! First time I saw one was in a magazine ad.
this song is so underrated
Deadly
Put this on VH1 and i belief it will move your hips .. else its just an experiment by NWO ..
Not rlly, it has 2. something million views. It is their 2nd most viewed UA-cam song.

By all that is holy, I haven't felt like this while listening to something in a long, long time. Good work good sir.
the singer voice is just @_@ .... love this song !
This is the type of music I put in my car at night while casually driving on a highway passing a wonderful view of a city!
Summer 2021 and still feels perfect to this day. Keep doing what you're doing.
Your songs not just give me nice nostalgia back to the 80's but they always keeps my spirit high. So, thank you very much Midnight 🙇♂🙇♂
The days of thunder. The 80s. A time when life was easier and more simple in my opinion.

Good, innit?
Midnight cruse down the coast, 88 vette, top down, pushing the limit, and this on full blast.
The saxophon creates so much joy inside of me that tears are pushed out of my body.
i think the the song and pure aesthetics of the video combined bring a vibe unmatched by any other song
Literally every single track of The Midnight is just straight up 10/10. How is that even possible?! Spread the LOVE
I recently came across the midnight and goddamn i cant stop myself from listening to all their songs... what the hell was i doing all the time? I was fucking missing out on this awesomeness.
fantastic track!
I love the midnight. Them and gunship always make me want to live in a cyberpunk reality.
Just heard this as background music during Sunday Night Football on NBC. Cool.
As a petrol head and an 80s music lover this is brilliant, so glad I discovered you!!!
This is one of my most favorite songs of this entire Century! You brought back a time I haven't seen since my infancy!
