Tír na nÓg the land of eternal green and joy in gael mythology. A place of fairies and the frontair with the "Other world". Let's remember that Alcest started when Neige was 14 and he was obsessed with celtic myths and fairy tells.This song is a tribute to his childhood memories just like the whole album. Lovely piece of art.
Patanol Tír na nÓg means "land of the young", it's from an old Irish story "Oisin i dTír na nÓg", where the character Oisin is brought by another character, Niamh, to Tir na nÓg to be Niamh's husband, it's a land of eternal youth where Oisin was promised endless supplies of cattle, sheep and warriors to command. It could be a metaphor for heaven, that's an interesting take I didn't take into account before
when i listen to this song i always think to myself " when did my life stopped to sound like this "?for me this song is truly an invitation to reconnect with the person you were at 8. So innocent and pure :)
4:00 - The return to the joyful part of the song after the dark interlude is amazing. I imagine emerging from some dark woods and finally seeing my destination shining off in the distance.
Miss the old days when me and my ex listening to this. These good old days just getting way more perfect whenever I remember them.🥲I think I can't get out of this circle of memory.
I particularly love this song because it helped me to spend a hot summer in the city, full of bad mood and pissed off. It was the summer of 2009. Really a shitty period, thank you alcest
Esta canción me da una sensación de bienestar indescriptible... Me recuerda cuando hace unos años tenía que salir muy temprano, veía el amanecer, el césped estaba escarchado, la nariz la sentía fría y mientras escuchaba alcest
That delicate simple piano riff is such an inspiring an beautiful thing. The strings during the end section doubly beautiful. If you emerged from being long lost in the woods and you see home or you are lost at sea and land appears on the horizon -- This is the music you should hear.
Masterpiece....so many emotions in this song. Lyrics French : Les yeux livides, s'efface lentement ma vie, Libérant, un trop plein de souffrances, mon corp, las d'un douleureux passé, Figé par la peur et la mort. J'implore la vie de laisser s'enfuir mon âme de cette prison de lamentation et d'agonie. Lyrics English : With lifeless eyes, my life slowly fades away, Releasing an overflow of suffering, My body, weary from a painful past, Frozen by fear and death. I implore life to let my soul escape from this prison of lamentation and agony.
it is great when you like all genres of music, you are not stuck or afraid of changes, and you enjoy magnificent bands like this in all their facets or genre mixing bands like AIRDROID. another changing one: ANATHEMA, genious.
I just love Alcest and Anathema, but new Anathema sucks! As Pink Floyd as Gilmour... But yes, I loved the changes Anathema made when released The Silent Enigma and Eternity. Then they became my favourite band.
Whenever I hear this song, I see in my mind two lovers who finally get together after a long time, after this, these two guys riding their horses in a big and green land.. when the guitar part begin, I imagine that the night has come and they're having a break in a forest, watching the night sky full of beautiful stars and then fall asleep while huggin' each other, then after the guitar part, there's the sunrise and them continuing their travel together. I feel very happy by thinking of this ahaha (sorry for my bad english, i just wanted to share my thoughts with you ^^ )
@@yaroxkendo3043 Yeah, it's a beautiful experience. I never stopped doing this. even now, listening again to this song, i can imagine the same as two years ago. Music is powerful
Après des années à errer entre différents styles de musiques et artistes, j'ai trouvé en Alcest le groupe qui me correspond, celui qui colle à tous mes états d'âme, de l'euphorie à la mélancolie, avec tant d'influences qui me parlent et résonnent dans mes tripes...Peut-être parce que je suis née presque le même jour que Neige ??? ;-)) Avec vous chaque morceau est un voyage et une révélation, quelle émotion... Merci de nous transporter et de révéler la part céleste qui sommeille en nous...
Livid eyes, slowly erasing my life, Releasing, too full of suffering, my body, weary of a painful past, Frozen with fear and death. I implore life to let my soul run away from this prison of lamentation and agony Sorry for poor translation
Jo L'clodo Juste des syllabes y a beaucoup d’artistes qui le font Lisa Gerrard de Dead can dance est la plus connu, mais aussi la chanteuse des Cocteau Twins. Neige l’a refait sur le morceau Kodama également
It has nothing to do with the rest of the album. No Shoegaze, no black metal. Sound more like some folk/new age song. But in the end it doesn't matter, is a beautiful song... :)
I know Alcest is black metal-based band but does anyone know if they have other songs similar to this or if you know any artist that makes similar music? I love Tir Nan Og by Alcest :)
their newest release, Shelter, is basically a dream pop album. They've completely made the transition to a dream pop band. There is no longer a metal influence. I think you might like that album. And to be frank, Souvenirs d'un autre monde has very little metal in it, too. Like half the album is a straight-up shoegaze album. So if you haven't listened to its eternity yet, check out Souvenirs d'un autre monde. Which if I may add, is their best album to-date.
This is very new age-y, check out some new age music (e.g. Yanni, Vangelis, Enigma) if you like this although don't get too invested in their weird ideology, also has a Celtic flair so some traditional Celtic/Irish music might tickle your fancy
It's supposed to be TIR NA NOG not TIR NAN OG.... TIR NA NOG is the Celtic/Irish mystery land - the land of dreams if you like... A place of great beauty..
They haven't been black metal since there first demo album, I don't see how anybody could have an issue with that, the fact is Neige has a unique talent for writing very emotional and beautiful music.
someone said it in the comments "it is an instrumental song. The voice is singing in phonetic, words are without meaning: woooo weeeeee aaaaaaaah...like this :) I mean you can always buffalax it with your own lyrics, but l like the song as it is"
Ok I love this album and Alcest and everything. One of my favorites of all time! But I don't understand how anyone can consider this black metal, it sounds nothing like black metal at all. Can someone explain why they consider it blackmetal?
isn´t black metal...isn´t metal...is just feelings and music.Tags limits(i dont know if limit is the word, my english isnt very good) the world and the mind, just listen and fly away
This album don't have so much black metal... maybe it's called Black Metal, Blackgaze or however for the blast beats and growls from Ecailles and Les Voyages de l'Âme

so i closed my eyes and saw myself under a tree feeling the warm sunlight through the spaces between leaves and branches...
Well Tir Na Nog does mean heaven in Irish mythology. :)

What do you mean?
when i listen to this song i always think to myself " when did my life stopped to sound like this "?for me this song is truly an invitation to reconnect with the person you were at 8. So innocent and pure :)
I exactly feel the same as you :)
Alcest is one of the most intimate bands ♥

I had chills reading this. totally agree
@@leonardom.4683 me too
I feel the same
One of the most beautiful pieces of music ever made
this song is so wonderful!
Then you should listen to it on a LP - omg... i've still got hair standing all over my body from it!
every night in military I felt back alive because of this song!! =)
Miss the old days when me and my ex listening to this. These good old days just getting way more perfect whenever I remember them.🥲I think I can't get out of this circle of memory.
I can relate to that :'))
I particularly love this song because it helped me to spend a hot summer in the city, full of bad mood and pissed off. It was the summer of 2009. Really a shitty period, thank you alcest
it's long long time I haven't heard a beautiful song like this... true harmony, nature and inspirational
Neige tiene una voz hermosa! 🔥💞Parece de otro mundo me encanta esta banda 🤘todos sus álbumes son de lo mejor
Esta canción me da una sensación de bienestar indescriptible... Me recuerda cuando hace unos años tenía que salir muy temprano, veía el amanecer, el césped estaba escarchado, la nariz la sentía fría y mientras escuchaba alcest
Gracias!
So perfect ... Alcest é demais
This cleanses my soul
Such a beautiful song.
Beatiful, just beatiful! 🎧🎶
2:46 That part reminds me of Opeth A LOT.
Watershed?
blackwater shed on a park?
"Hope Leaves"
Euphoric happiness is the only way to describe this song and its effect on me.
That delicate simple piano riff is such an inspiring an beautiful thing. The strings during the end section doubly beautiful. If you emerged from being long lost in the woods and you see home or you are lost at sea and land appears on the horizon -- This is the music you should hear.
Listening to this album was a lifechanging experience. Thanks Alcest for such beautiful masterpiece.

Lyrics French :
Les yeux livides, s'efface lentement ma vie,
Libérant, un trop plein de souffrances,

de cette prison de lamentation et d'agonie.

this is a beautiful song
it makes me feel so nostalgic
Cerati and Alcest, the best
Juste magnifique. Rien à redire, un délice auditif.
THIS SONG HAS SUCH A FVCKIN power OVER ME 🤘🏻 it reminds me AS i Iistened ALCEST 4 THE First time... BEAUTYFUL MEMORIES 😁
Mais cette chanson est merveilleuse !
this is art!
💚💚💚
Sans doute l'une des meilleures compositions de Neige.
I Really love Alcest. =) Is so beautiful. Perfect.
THIS SONG MAKES ME SO HAPPY :)

Alcest and Anathema toured the UK together just a couple of months ago, I was lucky enough to see them :)
The 11 people who dislike this song are deaf.
the 12 are deaf and blind
Yesterday I had a break-up and all I am doing is listening to this masterpiece, It hurts very much.
Was it shathering or wall breaking?
I am homeless now xD
@@CloudxOut what? Really?

Hi Sumeru 🌴✨
i think the same :)

Poland say YES
Fans of this track, do your ears a favor and listen to Eden's Healingbow.
Neige, you fucking genius... This is so beautiful.
So good...
I'm here after I saw the tir nan og in Cereza and the lost demon. I knew it sounded familiar somehow
Il était beau comme un prince

Tellement pure.. Is there anybody who knows this mysterious lyrics please ?!

Some similar type of mood songs - Tycho ~ Daydream / M83 ~ Wait / Bombay Dub Orchestra ~ Beauty and the East
oh thank you for the explanation, words ending in "og" always sound vietnamese to me, ignorant me
Tir Na Nog is land of the young in Irish - I don't know if the lyrics are any language or just sounds, though.
xauenanthropus Just Phonetic langage as Lisa Gerard or as Cocteau Twins band
:)
3:09
so do you know? what means Tir nan og?
Awww..... this is sooooo pertty :) i know pretty is spelt wrong, it's intentional ha ha (just so no one can correct me on that) :)
mike malice why didn't you just spell it correctly then lol? You know you have a backspace on your keyboard right?
It's supposed to be TIR NA NOG not TIR NAN OG.... TIR NA NOG is the Celtic/Irish mystery land - the land of dreams if you like... A place of great beauty..
shut your face
sounds like Yanni
Looks like a Mantra *-*
The music reminds me of the cure
Nobody Say that...
Truly NOT black metal. Now that that's said. What an interesting song.
+Daniel Lewis Lol. It's not even supposed to be metal. I like the fact that I don't get what he's saying.
They haven't been black metal since there first demo album, I don't see how anybody could have an issue with that, the fact is Neige has a unique talent for writing very emotional and beautiful music.
@@fenryx0 This song is not in french , so we don't understand either !
this is what? Vietnamese? I know they're french but this song isn't french spoken

hm?
lyrics?
there's no lyrics

This album don't have so much black metal... maybe it's called Black Metal, Blackgaze or however for the blast beats and growls from Ecailles and Les Voyages de l'Âme
Alcest was Black metal band in its very early years. This beautiful record is completly something else
post-black metal; black metal instrumentation and playing style, but the music itself isn't black metal
The Enya moments really are Alcest's weak point.
How?
On the contrary
Not true at all lmao
Wtf? The intro sounds like a cheesy Amy Grant song lol.
I always thought that kid was doing coke. yikes.
Nope, it's a flute, not a straw, haha.
thanks captain obvious? lol
