I am 50 year old depressed overweight man, and when ever I listen to Airborne Toxic event, it makes me feel young, happy and alive again. Because of their sound I am getting my grove back and losing weight and enjoying life again THANK YOU Love you guys
These guys dont get enough credit. Amazing band and great songs. Hard to find these days. Everyone knows who Selena Gomez is dating but an awesome band like this doesnt get recognized??
+Chris Mulligan It is not about who gets more recognition. It is about people who listen to these songs. There are hell of a lot of people who listen to Selena. Consider yourself lucky that you like music like ATE as you can add up to those people who recognizes that there is not enough recognition to music like that.
I can honestly say that this song made me cry. The Airborne Toxic Event has saved my life and brought me out of a really bad depression. One of my best friends introduced me to them a year ago and they have been one of my all time favorites. After my girlfriend broke up with me, I kept these guys on repeat and I learned a lot of their songs on guitar. This one band, these 5 people, they have changed my life for the better. Keep making music please, for the fans
ATE is one of those bands that have the rare ability to be both ahead of its time and a throwback to past when musicality and lyrics actually meant something
I've been following this band since 2010 and it's so crazy to see how the meaning of songs change as we grow. This song back when it came out was just another awesome song and now it means so much more. It's cool how music seems to grow and change with the way we do
I agree!! I've been listening to them since about 2008 and the meaning behind their music has changed for me since then. I also think that the band and the meanings behind the songs has changed a lot since then as well. It kinda feels like they grow as we grow and so we can both change together!
Isnt it so beautiful? Feeling songs evolve for you as the days weeks months years go by? It's like magic and I love thinking about it as I discover new feelings and emotions.
Lyrics I've been in a daze It seems like days that I've been waiting For this dream to pass It goes so fast It seems nothing lasts I think I've lost something Stuck here with these people While you wake I crush our bodies in one space I feel your heart blood from my tongue I wonder where you've gone And the ever turning, spinning wheel of people, places lies I feel The restless beat of the sleepless night to come I just want to be numb Just want to be numb Hopeless these three years like smoking years I go from place to place Just endlessly and half asleep Like I'm falling alone at some endless breach I don't know where I am I don't know what I've done I just go over it again and again and again I can't sleep at night I cant breathe But If I drink tonight I'll get you off my mind And the ever present pit I feel I'm turning on some spinning wheel Of faces and the scenes I see And none of it seems real to me Just the bleary haze of the morning still to come I just want to be numb Just want to be numb I just want to be numb I just want to be numb I just want to be numb
This band just crashed into my life today. This is the third song that I have listened to, and I feel like this hit the nail on the head of what I am going through RIGHT NOW!! It felt that way at first listen, but listening while reading the lyrics, damn!! Love at first listen! Second listen blew my mind
I remember finding out on a Thursday that this band was playing Friday in Orlando back in 2011. Nobody I was friends with knew who they were. I left work early that Friday and made the 3 hours drive alone and experienced one of the best concerts of my life. TATE will forever have a piece of my heart.
I have all of TATE's music. I drive all day for my job and have their music on my mp3 player. Whenever any of their songs comes on randomly, I turn the shuffle off and listen to all their songs. Can't help it. This band is amazing.
They give me life, this band gives me the feeling of being able to be happy & the feeling to actually do something. I hope I can see them live this October! Amazing band! xx
Joselyne Flores It pumped me to get back into music. I was in the crowd, in front of these incredible musicians, my mind being BLOWN, and it hit me. I'm wasn't making any steps toward my dreams. I stopped making music. This concert pushed me back into what I love. It was the greatest concert I'd even been to. Hands down. YOU HAVE TO GO.
Shelby Brown omfg. OMFG. THAT IS AMAZING. THAT SOUNDS BEAUTIFUL. But that is what great music does to you, that it what beautiful music does to you. But I love that they got you back into doing what you love the most, I love that they are helping you. But I will go, I am going to go! Haha, I already have my ticket. :)
Joselyne Flores YES, I listen to them religiously. Yay! Be sure to get close to the stage, Mikel likes to interact with the crowd A LOT. And take people phones lol Just put everything behind and have a great time!!!(:
Great track. Nice video. Seen them both in the UK (Sheffield, rearranged after power outage) and the US Boston-House of Blues...Top band, Top performers, well worth seeing live again and again...
When I first heard Sometime Around Midnight, I thought you guys were going to be a one-hit wonder band, the song was just too good. So I bought both of your albums, and I was proven wrong. DEAD wrong. Wishing Well reminded me of Born to Run by Bruce Springsteen, and that got me listening to the rest of your music. Your sound is has such a perfect atmosphere to it! I can't wait to see you guys live!
When they came to Anchorage, Alaska I had the honor of driving these guys around in my car and showing them the highlights of my city before their concert. They were all incredibly chill and down to earth people. A really awesome bunch!
From completely out of the blue ( In my case) to my favourite band of all time in 10 short weeks, and i'm 63 a Glasto regular and someone who's being listening to fabulous music for over 48 years since I first heard Deep Purple in Rock and Dark Side of the Moon,. I don't say these words lightly and I mean whaI I say, they are THAT good.
This is the most intelligent music I have heard in heard in years. I can listen to them over and over and over. I just cannot get enough. Thank you for making music smart again!
9 years passed from the time I used to play this non stop, UA-cam decided that I need this in my life again. Felt like this should have brought back so many memories, but not sure of what.
I fell in love with The Airborne Toxic Event again! Every song they write&perform and every band member really mean a lot to me and their songs help anyone who listens to them. :)
I saw these guys in Atlanta, awesome show. Also, this band was all I listened to after a really bad break up. Especially this song, "But if I drink tonight I'll get you off my mind." Best line ever.
+Drew Moore Because you fucktard hipsters yell #Musicindustrysowhite So this band just has to check their "white privilege" and move out of the way for ganster rap. Can't have your cake and eat it too.
Can't wait to see them again in May. They do a great live show, the concert I went to back in '09 was awesome, especially meeting them. They're very down-to-earth, great people.
I found myself looking forward to when I was gonna get to listen to this cd next even while I was listening to it. Album of the year if you ask me. Don't steal it, go buy it. Best $10 you can spend.
This song will always remind me of someone i fell in love with. He introduced me to this beautiful song and now it fucking hurts to hear this. Gods, i wish i could go back in the past... miss you Quinn.
I'm amazed with the connection I've made with every lyric you write. The way you verbalize EXACTLY what I'm feeling is a gift. You brought healing to my life and I'm forever grateful. I'm a loyal fan for life!
Watched them last week in Berlin and they were amazing as always, have seen them in Amsrerdam and Manchester too, must have spent at least £2000 on their albums and gigs since first hearing Sometime around Midnight in my local. Worth every penny and will definitely see them live again as soon as possible. xxx
These guys are awesome live, saw them in Amsterdam and in Manchester and will hopefully be sseeing them in Berlin in a couple of weeks. They give so much effort into everything they do and are touring almost non stop so if occasionally they get a little tired I can't say I'm surprised. Love them xx
I'm a 47 year old wife and mother who lives on an island, I saw them live years ago and they were amazing, I don't think it matters what age etc you are if music like this gives you chills and helps you then keep listening, you've got great taste
Got the new album in the post today, love this song. Amazingly talented band, have seen them twice now in Amstedam and Manchester and can't wait to see them again.
@dkuhnle, totally agree with you mate. They did the same for me when Sometime Around Midnight first graced my ears! Going to see them live for the 5th time in Manchester & i am giddywith excitement!!!
I am 50 year old depressed overweight man, and when ever I listen to Airborne Toxic event, it makes me feel young, happy and alive again. Because of their sound I am getting my grove back and losing weight and enjoying life again THANK YOU Love you guys

Good job brother. I hope this reply finds you happy and successful
Hey man hang in life is full of beatiful things like music you just have to weed out the.bullshit to know its there
I want to just hug you
I hope life finds you happier now. Just live for today. 😊
Omg...2023 here...this band is absolutely underrated!!!
These guys dont get enough credit. Amazing band and great songs. Hard to find these days. Everyone knows who Selena Gomez is dating but an awesome band like this doesnt get recognized??
+Chris Mulligan They sound a lot like early New Order
+Chris Mulligan It is not about who gets more recognition. It is about people who listen to these songs. There are hell of a lot of people who listen to Selena. Consider yourself lucky that you like music like ATE as you can add up to those people who recognizes that there is not enough recognition to music like that.
+Donatas Stirbys True, but such a wonderfully talented band like this deserves to be a lot bigger than they are right now
True story, but the depth keeps us alive
just reminds me classic phycadelic furs,great music,great voice
Just found this band during the 2020 Quarantine. Incredible, absolutely love this band now!
Dave In Canada same
@@cubonemaker5080 Third me
Their new album dropped a couple weeks ago, go listen! It’s awesome!
Anna Bulbrook isn’t with the band anymore unfortunately.
Same here. Just finished his book. Really good, he's such a smart guy.

Agree 100%
Absolutely
I was trying to describe what you said, thanks for putting it in words, totally agree!
You know what , that is true.
Oopoloh and

diana rodriguez So true, Diana!
Isnt it so beautiful? Feeling songs evolve for you as the days weeks months years go by? It's like magic and I love thinking about it as I discover new feelings and emotions.
Now this a band, full of true musicians.
Amazing, 4 years ago; where does time go...thumbs up if you're listening to this in 2015!
2024 we're here and the times woo the times
2024 💜🤟🏼
Such an underrated band. Great song.
Lyrics
I've been in a daze
It seems like days that I've been waiting
For this dream to pass
It goes so fast
It seems nothing lasts
I think I've lost something
Stuck here with these people
While you wake I crush our bodies in one space
I feel your heart blood from my tongue
I wonder where you've gone
And the ever turning, spinning wheel of people, places lies I feel
The restless beat of the sleepless night to come
I just want to be numb
Just want to be numb
Hopeless these three years like smoking years
I go from place to place
Just endlessly and half asleep
Like I'm falling alone at some endless breach
I don't know where I am
I don't know what I've done
I just go over it again and again and again
I can't sleep at night
I cant breathe
But If I drink tonight I'll get you off my mind
And the ever present pit I feel
I'm turning on some spinning wheel
Of faces and the scenes I see
And none of it seems real to me
Just the bleary haze of the morning still to come
I just want to be numb
Just want to be numb
I just want to be numb
I just want to be numb
I just want to be numb
Lovely
This band just crashed into my life today. This is the third song that I have listened to, and I feel like this hit the nail on the head of what I am going through RIGHT NOW!! It felt that way at first listen, but listening while reading the lyrics, damn!! Love at first listen! Second listen blew my mind
I discovered this band a week ago and now im addicted to them.
This is my favorite rock band! This is one of my favorite songs they made!!!
Sad words but that tune makes me want to dance around the house
the emotion in his voice and lyrics is awesome. He's so real. It reminds me of Conor Oberst
These guys were recommended by UA-cam a few days ago and I hadn’t heard of them. What I’ve been missing out on
Been a fan for 7 years, never, ever disappoint. This song is everything.
Love this song. The Airborne Toxic Event is truly underrated.
January, 2020.
Still love it ✌️
I remember finding out on a Thursday that this band was playing Friday in Orlando back in 2011. Nobody I was friends with knew who they were. I left work early that Friday and made the 3 hours drive alone and experienced one of the best concerts of my life. TATE will forever have a piece of my heart.
Just saw them in concert! Totally AWESOME! It sounds even better live
I have all of TATE's music. I drive all day for my job and have their music on my mp3 player. Whenever any of their songs comes on randomly, I turn the shuffle off and listen to all their songs. Can't help it. This band is amazing.
i love this band i have every one of there cds and have see them live incredible band
One of the best songs to listen to when you are feeling sad.
This band deserves more fans!
I love this song, i can't stop listening!
The Airborne Toxic Event is the the best band in the world ^.^
I feel a real connection to his music especially after listening to Hollywood Park on Audible. It was so good.
That lead is so passionate and in your face, it's powerful. And the lead guitarist is beautifully ageless. God, I'm in heaven!
They give me life, this band gives me the feeling of being able to be happy & the feeling to actually do something. I hope I can see them live this October! Amazing band! xx
I know what you mean! I just saw them and they blew my mind.
Shelby Brown That's awesome! How was the concert?
Joselyne Flores It pumped me to get back into music. I was in the crowd, in front of these incredible musicians, my mind being BLOWN, and it hit me. I'm wasn't making any steps toward my dreams. I stopped making music. This concert pushed me back into what I love. It was the greatest concert I'd even been to. Hands down. YOU HAVE TO GO.

Joselyne Flores YES, I listen to them religiously. Yay! Be sure to get close to the stage, Mikel likes to interact with the crowd A LOT. And take people phones lol Just put everything behind and have a great time!!!(:
Saw them live first time last night. It was fantastic.
There should be a ''Love'' button because I love to listen to this song and whoever goes to The Airborne Toxic Event's concert is SO LUCKY!!
This band is so underrated and in 2021 i still love this song
I liked their song "sometine around midnight" and i L-O-V-E "numb"! I hope i hear it on the radio ASAP! ~
How the hell can one band be amazing and contain such attractive people at the same time!?
Great track. Nice video. Seen them both in the UK (Sheffield, rearranged after power outage) and the US Boston-House of Blues...Top band, Top performers, well worth seeing live again and again...
Amazing young band !
When I first heard Sometime Around Midnight, I thought you guys were going to be a one-hit wonder band, the song was just too good. So I bought both of your albums, and I was proven wrong. DEAD wrong. Wishing Well reminded me of Born to Run by Bruce Springsteen, and that got me listening to the rest of your music. Your sound is has such a perfect atmosphere to it! I can't wait to see you guys live!
When they came to Anchorage, Alaska I had the honor of driving these guys around in my car and showing them the highlights of my city before their concert. They were all incredibly chill and down to earth people. A really awesome bunch!
i love Anna she is so amazing... i just love this band all together there sound is astonishing!
This band speaks another language. I've been listening to them since day one.
From completely out of the blue ( In my case) to my favourite band of all time in 10 short weeks, and i'm 63 a Glasto regular and someone who's being listening to fabulous music for over 48 years since I first heard Deep Purple in Rock and Dark Side of the Moon,. I don't say these words lightly and I mean whaI I say, they are THAT good.
I learned about ATE with their first cd and have loved them ever since!!!!!!!
He sings with such emotion. Great band.
I did not hear this song back when it came out, but it certainly reminds me of 2011 and all the nostalgic memories I had that year.
I'm glad i found this song now than never.
Ahh I love them (: Saw them in concert monday, memorial day. They kicked ass!
So real. So appreciative of the beauty of instruments. Don’t stop.
Going to see them this Tuesday in Columbus. Beyond stoked!
Anyone else find themselves oddly listening to more Airborne Toxic Event during this airborne toxic event known as 2020?
This is the most intelligent music I have heard in heard in years. I can listen to them over and over and over. I just cannot get enough. Thank you for making music smart again!
9 years passed from the time I used to play this non stop, UA-cam decided that I need this in my life again. Felt like this should have brought back so many memories, but not sure of what.
I fell in love with The Airborne Toxic Event again! Every song they write&perform and every band member really mean a lot to me and their songs help anyone who listens to them. :)
Saw them last night in Houston. They're absolutely incredible.
I saw these guys in Atlanta, awesome show. Also, this band was all I listened to after a really bad break up. Especially this song, "But if I drink tonight I'll get you off my mind." Best line ever.
Great lyric writing. Talented group!
Why is this band not more famous?
+Drew Moore Because you fucktard hipsters yell #Musicindustrysowhite
So this band just has to check their "white privilege" and move out of the way for ganster rap.
Can't have your cake and eat it too.
+bossdrive525 What the fuck are you talking about?
+bossdrive525 U know you did not just use SJW terms like White Privelege. oh my gosh, I can't I went there.
+Tony Daniels Don't even on this page.
bossdrive525 what the fuck are you ranting about?
I admire the honesty they put into their music.
Can't wait to see them again in May. They do a great live show, the concert I went to back in '09 was awesome, especially meeting them. They're very down-to-earth, great people.
When I first discovered this video I must've listened to it a hundred times. It still rocks 🎸 every time!!!!
"October 17th...ten blocks from my house...I'll make a point of being there." - A New Fan
i love Mikel voice...he has this urgency in it like he wants you to feel his emotions through his words. i do i really do
Great song! Reminds me of the 80's in parts of the song.
+Isaac Thompson Yes...it is the 80's again...going to go out looking for girls with big hair now!
Like a life saving tonic. You either get it or you don't, but there is so much beauty here. ♥ you guys!!
This band makes me dance everytime ❤
I found myself looking forward to when I was gonna get to listen to this cd next even while I was listening to it. Album of the year if you ask me. Don't steal it, go buy it. Best $10 you can spend.
Thank you for coming to London and I know you played this song just for me. You were purest awesome.
Cant wait to see these guys next month at the fabulous 40 watt in Athens, GA
i saw these guys LIVE.
they were awesome
This gives me a Psychedelic Furs vibe and I can't get enough of it!
I can watch Mikel Jollett sing all... day...
What a great song and band! It's a shame I'm just finding out about them now. Oh and the chick, Anna. :D
cant wait to buy this album today, even more i can not wait to see them in nyc this week
This song will always remind me of someone i fell in love with. He introduced me to this beautiful song and now it fucking hurts to hear this. Gods, i wish i could go back in the past... miss you Quinn.
I'm amazed with the connection I've made with every lyric you write. The way you verbalize EXACTLY what I'm feeling is a gift. You brought healing to my life and I'm forever grateful. I'm a loyal fan for life!
Saw them live at the Electric Factory in Philly. Best concert I've ever seen. This is such a great song but so underrated.
Watched them last week in Berlin and they were amazing as always, have seen them in Amsrerdam and Manchester too, must have spent at least £2000 on their albums and gigs since first hearing Sometime around Midnight in my local. Worth every penny and will definitely see them live again as soon as possible. xxx
Psychedelic Furs reincarnated,and that's a very good thing!!
They are all so beautifully passionate, i can totally feel this song 100x....
The Airborne Toxic Event: where music feels good and lyrics actually have meaning.
These guys don't get enough credit, because most of the person in the world have a bad taste in music. Amazing song as all the other song.
Love this!! YES!! YES!!
Fall 2020
Glad to know this song by the end of the year. It's never to late.
Good to see them back again. I've been watching them from early on, and it's good to see that they're still making, in my opinion, fantastic music. :)
i really love this song
I miss numb...
These guys are awesome live, saw them in Amsterdam and in Manchester and will hopefully be sseeing them in Berlin in a couple of weeks. They give so much effort into everything they do and are touring almost non stop so if occasionally they get a little tired I can't say I'm surprised. Love them xx
just went to one yesterday where they played abou 6 new songs........awsome
I'm a 47 year old wife and mother who lives on an island, I saw them live years ago and they were amazing, I don't think it matters what age etc you are if music like this gives you chills and helps you then keep listening, you've got great taste
And one of theee best live shows!
This might be one of my favorite songs ever
Epic song!! first song i hear from them.
This is beautiful.
Love this one too! They are all so talented. Big hugs! I will see them tonight at the Greek, YAY!
Got the new album in the post today, love this song. Amazingly talented band, have seen them twice now in Amstedam and Manchester and can't wait to see them again.

Thank you Tap Tap Revenge 4 for showing me this amazing song! :D
Real guitars real players real songwriting...real music
Another great song and video. Love the beat, the lyrics, you guys got it hittin' on all cylinders. Anna your hair / you look great in the video.
