It’s almost like Blink was Tom’s childhood and adolescence and AVA is him in adulthood with new friends and life experiences. Blink is like College and HS memories, we hold them with nostalgia but AVA is our life in the present.
I miss the old times he is like My Rusty friend lol , he looked alot like My Best friend and husband , My husband Will and always be my best friend forever !
By far THE BEST Angels and Airwaves song...how the song goes in crescendo, the lyrics , guitarwork synths ,drums,epic ending...amazing definitely in my top 10 favorite songs ever
glad to hear im not the only one who thinks this is a top song of all time! For me it is top 5, maybe even considered for 1...they played it at the St. Louis show as the final song!
The world treats Tom like a joke. Like have you not listened to this man's songs? It's like a level above music. It's universal and holds so much power that when it grabs you it doesn't ever let go. He is here, the voice inside your yead. Most underrated artist ever.
Bought I-Empire the day it came out. Listening to it all for the first time riding my bike home from the mall, cd spinning in my discman. A crystal clear night. I remember stopping in a field behind my old junior high school right at the bottom of big hill, laying in the cool grass, looking up at the stars and wondering whats out there? How small we all are in the universe. How important to cherish the little blip we have on this earth. That was the best bike ride I've ever had in my life. AvA 4eva! ❤
The feeling is that at the moment 4:15 of the song, there's a dog barking in the background 🤣🤣🤣. All kidding aside, one of the most beautiful lyrics I've ever heard. 🤍
I just discovered AvA this past year and this is honestly one of the best songs in any genre I have ever heard in my life. Please stay, don't go, I've got you now Are you curious, Please stay...
Tom’s guitar tone (the echo/delay) is freaking amazing. I’ve seen AVA once live and you can feel that guitar tone in your chest in the best way possible
I’ve been a blink, +44, box car racer, transplants fan through and through, but this band is my absolute favourite. I’ve been privileged to see AVA 4 times and missed a 5th during the pandemic when it was cancelled but this band despite its members changes and moments of quiet has been the most heartfelt, story driven, inspiring, influential and so close to my heart band there could be. It’s been a journey from their conception and I really hope from the deepest centre of my heart that they tour again, make more albums and continue being the light to many people 🫶
you made me realize that being a positive bot is better than anything else could be on this platform - whether or not anyone of consequence believes you
The artwork reminded me of an old 80's movie and i was expecting something i missed back in the days, then this amazing song hit me like a wave of sound and emotions.
my childhood was perfect 😅with this song and it just more than song.i do listings again and again and I got realised how many I took it .Proud for bond in AVA decade .
Tom has been with me throughout my adolescent to college. His music literally the soundtrack of my life, I thank him for that. I sometimes coming back to this particular song and just crying my heart out and contemplating about life.
Still after decades, this song makes me incredibly happy. Still gives me goosebumps. The percussion is astounding, as is everything about this track. If I could choose one song to perform to an an audience, it would be this.
I once had a really good brother from another country. We used to chat on steam for more than three years until he got married, then he got a job, a new apartment and had no time to be online and chat with me. He sadly replied once a week or two weeks and this really made me sad. He was driving the highway in 40 degrees heat blasting this song in his car and sending me a clip of it. I still have the clip but no longer my brother. Our bond is still strong. If you read this, I miss you and I wish you a happy wonderful life my lovely brother
His songs just send me into some kinda mystic space in head , some kinda spiritual retreat.. to be connected to A&A is to be connected with your innner soul
This brings me back to nearly a decade ago at age 14. I'm laying on my bed listening to this album with the sun coming through the window and washing over me. I've lost track of how many pills I've taken and am just letting the music take me away as I drift into what I thought would be an endless sleep. Obviously I woke up though and I'm so happy I did. It is crazy how things change with time.
I will run the streets and hostile lands I will touch the rain with all I have I will breathe the air, just scream it loud My feet will never touch the ground Because the days they feel like ancient clocks Like when kids grow up and learn to walk Because your life is full of pure desire A place so gloriously wired The lights and sounds Oh God this is such a mess And it's like our world But we're the last ones left And the hair it stands On the back of our necks And I swear it shows Heaven must be just like this Do you see the hills beneath the clouds? The stars and its to lead you out Can you sense the pain? It's everywhere And if you try you'll never care And the love you had When you were young Is right outside for all to come Because your life is full of pure desire A place so gloriously wired The lights and sounds Oh God this is such a mess And it's like our world But we're the last ones left And the hair it stands On the back of our necks And I swear it shows Heaven must be just like this If you see the light break through the clouds And fire up the distant towns Now the world will be begin Exactly how it ends When you call for help when you are lost For evermore or what ever it costs And the world will begin Exactly how it ends Please stay Don't go I've got you now Are you curious? Please stay
My father was on life suport in the ICU. When this song came out. :( this was the last song i heard while getting a coffee at the hospital caffateria. My dad past away 2 hour's later. i stood by his side. It broke my heart. RIP Allan Jame's Sr.
I remember watching The Adventure music video on MTV back in 2006 and always thought these dudes Space rock sound was amazing. Back on 2009 I downloaded all the albums they had . But Heaven by far is the best track AVA put together. This Song makes me homesick for a place that doesn’t even exist.
I’ve been alive for 19 years. This album was the first music I was exposed to. I remember listening to it in the car with my parents all the time. This has always been my favorite song on the album. I’ve listened to a lot of music in my life, but nothing will ever top this song and it will always be my favorite.
0:06 “Everyone, everyone will listen” (Valkyrie Missiles) 0:13 “Here we go, life’s waiting to begin...” (The Adventure) Edit: I just realized there also a line from “Start the Machine” around 0:23 (...say, say it, I will listen) I love how I-Empire referenced songs from We Don’t Need To Whisper.
Thank you ANGELS&AIRWAVES for your songs, your music, your words! It fills my heart with joy and my eyes with tears. I feel alive... I'd love to use it for a photo-video-mix in memory of a woman we loved - the mother of my children.
Wonderful song! I still remember discovering AVA through this song. I heard it in the trailer for Discovery Project Earth on the Discovery Channel back in 2008. I was like "That voice kind of sounds like Tom from Blink-182...."
Fantastic song, I especially love the song, A Pale Horse it's one of my favorites. Amazing Talent, truly one of Heavens Messengers. So much passion, I love you guys.
this song makes me feel like I used to feel when I was 17. like the world's mine and I have the power to do everything I want - brave, young and poweful. I don't know what Thomas did here, but jesus, this one hits me hard.
2023 and still loving this song since nov 1st of 2007, f#%cking incredible! my grandma passed away on dec 25 on the same year and this song always makes me cry remembering her! lov u tom!
Amazing symphony. Imagine God vigorously dancing upon the clouds surrounded by clocks forged in jasper. Fortunately, the clocks do not have faces, because the only time that exists is party time.. as long as it is pure 🙌
It’s almost like Blink was Tom’s childhood and adolescence and AVA is him in adulthood with new friends and life experiences. Blink is like College and HS memories, we hold them with nostalgia but AVA is our life in the present.
Boom!
I miss the old times he is like My Rusty friend lol , he looked alot like My Best friend and husband , My husband Will and always be my best friend forever !
Nahh hit after hit too now year after year is a difference and is light sauce on the year after year tracks..
Nothing against Blink, but I prefer AVA. I'm also an old man lol.
What about box car racer?
God all their songs have the most magical way of making you look forward to life. They will live forever in this 43 year old.
you can live forever. :) You have to be born-again. #jesus said. :) #arentyouthankful
COOL, 😎 never heard of them until right now I really like them. I run across from listening to bad omens
Far and away the best musical composition recorded by a human being.
💯 the writing and production on this song is unparalleled
Agreed. The new stuffs pretty uplifting to this Depressed Soul too. Awesome Tom.
Absolutely my favorite Angels And Airwaves song! Not even close. And I love most of them.
Up they go !!!!
Come up here!
O my God!
The ending part really feels like heaven!
Indeed
Agreed. Akoom ma Salam. Or words to that effect brutha
If you dug this outro then listen to Jimi's " Third stone from the sun " off of " Electric Ladyland "....aloha
By far THE BEST Angels and Airwaves song...how the song goes in crescendo, the lyrics , guitarwork synths ,drums,epic ending...amazing definitely in my top 10 favorite songs ever
yup i agree
It is really amazing. I love the “please staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyy don’t gooooo I’ve got you now” part towards the end
Secret crowds and adventure and a little enough and lifeline are my angels and irwaves but I love alll
it's 6:38 and it doesn't waste a second.
glad to hear im not the only one who thinks this is a top song of all time! For me it is top 5, maybe even considered for 1...they played it at the St. Louis show as the final song!

Very under yeaded
The world does not. You are just grasping on to few very strong opinions by people you must take somewhat serious.
‘The fool’ is highly conscious and spiritual
You should check out Porter Robinson. I feel the same way about his music.
@@roberts1572 and you should learn how to write in coherent sentences. Hater. Bum. Small dick person

I heard it
No one sings the words 'Here I Am' like Tom Delonge. iconic!
as mark hoppus - goodnight 😂
This song ALWAYS leaves me speechless. I feel alive when I listen to it. Thank you AVA, thank you Tom.
Their music is almost meditative! I always feel strong emotions whenever i listen to their music! Brilliant.
4:41 to the end is the perfect slice of euphoria to this amazing track. Heaven was an amazing way to end the masterpiece I-Empire is. 🔥 🔥 🔥
Hands down one of the best songs EVER created.
facts
This album is their greatest in my opinion.
Beautiful❤❤
I just discovered AvA this past year and this is honestly one of the best songs in any genre I have ever heard in my life.
Please stay, don't go,
I've got you now
Are you curious,
Please stay...
Welcome to loving them!!
Ava is pure light and life! It makes me grateful to be alive
She's wonderful
You know Tom has major demons to overcome to bless us with such beauty
So epic. Tom is such an incredible songwriter.
You can see how much more he had to give beyond Blink
Tom’s guitar tone (the echo/delay) is freaking amazing. I’ve seen AVA once live and you can feel that guitar tone in your chest in the best way possible

Always makes me fly above the clouds, breathe the air scream it loud! So enlighting song, jusr awesome!
🙌 Beautiful song ❤️
Same here
Rise up brother and look to the Light!
Heaven must be just like this when listening to Tom's voice! Such a beautiful and meaningful song!
Jyoti Bhatt Are you the dog that barked at 4:14??!
Thanks Tom!
I'm glad you wrote this song.
I showed it to a girl, her name was Monika.
Ugh, a classic 👌💖✨
you made me realize that being a positive bot is better than anything else could be on this platform - whether or not anyone of consequence believes you
This song on good speakers not too loud is beyond words.
AVA's best album artwork and this is one of my favorites along with The Adventure...
The artwork reminded me of an old 80's movie and i was expecting something i missed back in the days, then this amazing song hit me like a wave of sound and emotions.
that's because the artwork is made by the same guy that did some of the star wars movie posters!
@@edozh8412 Oh wow! Didn't know that! Thank you :)
Getting close to 50 years old, but this turns me 22. Same feeling from this that I got back in -89 from listening to Touch by Noiseworks.
That's truly awesome
52 yrs old and enjoy the f_ck out of this song. Tried to word it differently but saying it any other way doesn't feel right.
Ur making me feel like I'm old and will be 50 soon I was just 22 I'm 32
42 Year old Blink Fan and I-Empire is such a great album, this song is perfect
One of their best.
Is the best
From 2017 this song is still 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
One of the best song from this album
my childhood was perfect 😅with this song and it just more than song.i do listings again and again and I got realised how many I took it .Proud for bond in AVA decade .

This song makes me reborn . There was Blink but I remember when AVA came came out in 07 their sound forever changed my life
Pure poetry ❤
That outro 💜
I’ll never forget making the connection. It lives in my memory eternally.

How's that single motherhood working out?
@aurorahilton534 Way better. Life can be shitty at times but I'm no longer that scared kid trapped in an unsafe house 😊
@@dowtie1997 lmfao what? What a weird assumption to make.
I will run the streets and hostile lands
I will touch the rain with all I have
I will breathe the air, just scream it loud
My feet will never touch the ground
Because the days they feel like ancient clocks
Like when kids grow up and learn to walk
Because your life is full of pure desire
A place so gloriously wired
The lights and sounds
Oh God this is such a mess
And it's like our world
But we're the last ones left
And the hair it stands
On the back of our necks
And I swear it shows
Heaven must be just like this
Do you see the hills beneath the clouds?
The stars and its to lead you out
Can you sense the pain? It's everywhere
And if you try you'll never care
And the love you had
When you were young
Is right outside for all to come
Because your life is full of pure desire
A place so gloriously wired
The lights and sounds
Oh God this is such a mess
And it's like our world
But we're the last ones left
And the hair it stands
On the back of our necks
And I swear it shows
Heaven must be just like this
If you see the light break through the clouds
And fire up the distant towns
Now the world will be begin
Exactly how it ends
When you call for help when you are lost
For evermore or what ever it costs
And the world will begin
Exactly how it ends
Please stay
Don't go
I've got you now

No Tom is above them. His songs speak of good. One of the greatest musicians of this time.

Thanks I was looking good for this comment
Such a beautiful song
This song saves my life
Brings back the good memories driving in the car!
If I was stuck in outer space and had to listen to one band, it would be A&a.
Somehow I only just recently discovered AVA. This is one of my all time favorite songs. All my other favorite songs are either TD or AVA.
Without a doubt my favorite song of all time, always come back to this video
Thank you ANGELS&AIRWAVES for your songs, your music, your words! It fills my heart with joy and my eyes with tears. I feel alive... I'd love to use it for a photo-video-mix in memory of a woman we loved - the mother of my children.
❤
This song is so underrated :(
Yep. So is “Surrender”
Nobody I know likes these?
Do I care?
Yes..
Amazing music...it gives me chills!
My favorite song of all
Wonderful song! I still remember discovering AVA through this song. I heard it in the trailer for Discovery Project Earth on the Discovery Channel back in 2008. I was like "That voice kind of sounds like Tom from Blink-182...."
I discovered the band through oth and that was so many years back...that was the best day I found the cure and Angel's and airwaves . My healers
It is him
Love the whispering, distant sound bites from other hits at the beginning and end.
This song takes me back
The outro is the best part. Has anyone else noticed the "Here I am." Part matches the ending to the Valkyrie Missile Guitar Outro?
AVA is why i like Pink Floyd or maybe its the other way. but there is a connection
What a powerful and emotional song, a perfect closer to this album. Makes it feel like a perfect sequel to WDNTW. ✌️💖
What is WDNTW
@@jakey9776 we don't need to whisper, the first Angels and Airwaves album
Fantastic song, I especially love the song, A Pale Horse it's one of my favorites. Amazing Talent, truly one of Heavens Messengers. So much passion, I love you guys.
really good band with a great lead vocal .
Angels and airwaves ohmy you never know how much i loved you guys😍😚❤✌👌
Pure occult magick ✨💠✨
Love that tremolo towards the end
This, and the video posted by Mario Fernandez, are amazing.
this song makes me feel like I used to feel when I was 17. like the world's mine and I have the power to do everything I want - brave, young and poweful.
I don't know what Thomas did here, but jesus, this one hits me hard.
I remember in 2010 blaring this album out of my Jeep. Man this takes me back to those summer days. What I would give to skip back in time
07 for me same feeling time goes..
It's 2020, the world is crumbling around us. Buy a jeep and blast that shit!
Love this track so much
The best song they have ever made
I love this song so much!
Tom is such an underrated musician
AVA in these times 🤘
2023 and still loving this song since nov 1st of 2007, f#%cking incredible! my grandma passed away on dec 25 on the same year and this song always makes me cry remembering her! lov u tom!
Literally better than anything blink has ever done, with or without Tom. This is music
While this is certainly amazing, I'd argue blinks untitled album still holds up as Tom, Mark and Travis' magnum opus. My opinion anyway!
This isn't even better than much on Neighborhoods or Dogs Eating Dogs, never mind their true masterpieces Self Titled and Enema of the State.
@sneeding, yeah, untitled is still the best work for not just Tom, but Mark and Travis too.
A most excellent album 😊😃❤️🎶🎶🎶
Amazing symphony. Imagine God vigorously dancing upon the clouds surrounded by clocks forged in jasper. Fortunately, the clocks do not have faces, because the only time that exists is party time.. as long as it is pure 🙌
'these days they feel like ancient clocks' is the greatest lyric ever written somehow (here is gone)
valkyrie missile
Truly beautiful. Thank you.
that ending
I have to go hit valkyrie missile straight after every time.
It will begin exactly how it ends.
HEY!!!!!!! >:O
Please Stay don't go I got you now
that beginning
I love this song
