This song came to me 3 days after nearly a decade of self destructiveness. I am no longer the owned but the owner of this ship I'm sailing. This song is a gift of God to me at this time in my life.
I hope things are still moving along for you! I know it's been a while since you posted this comment, but never forget that feeling you had 4 years ago!
I saw this band open for Pheonix and Cut Copy at the greek theater in Berkeley and they literally stole the show. When they started, the crowd was mostly sitting and not paying too much attention, but by the end of their set, everyone was on their feet cheering and applauding. It was the first time I'd seen a crowd turn around like that and it set a very high bar for the next two acts.
@@mutedaddy props are cheap. No matter how big. They're signed to Interscope, pretty sure Interscope could just find a couple interns to build it themselves. That brain was built, not bought.
this video was probably high budget but it 100% wasnt cheep. you are fotgetting all the cast behind the chamera, all the ligthing and thats not cheep lighting. Also just the location, it cant be that cheep too rent that wearhouse and the sets also. so yeah, it migth be lower budget compaired too like expenssive videos but its not low budget, its not Losing My Edge by LCD Soundsystem or Subterranean Homesick Blues. And i dont think record lables do music videos, usally commisioned too a video production, the lable just produce them some of the time.
..I'm 66..this is some of the (can I say) nicest music I've heard since discovering the Editors a few yrs ago..some music is just no matter how old we're not...🦋🌸🤧
Saw these guys in concert not too long ago for work and I was pleasantly surprised. I looked them up and they sound exactly the same recorded as they do live. I’m a new fan!
I recently recovered from an aneurysm, which caused me to have a stroke . This song brings tears to my eyes, because, I was fighting mentally to get back to where I once was. But this song made me realize that my before was not where I should have been. I feel that everything after is where I should be. Did you get that? Yep, this song helped me realize that. God bless them ❤
This song is such a good sobriety song, awesome double meanings in the lyrics. "Try to love the little things even if they are hard to love." Also above the clouds, clear.
I remember listening to this song during the first lockdown due to Covid here in Germany. My place of work was closed, university as well. I could do nothing pretty much, so I did nothing and started thinking about my life... Finally. I realized what made me depressed all these years. University pushing me to the limit mentally (not so much intelectually), a relationship that was over years ago, but I kept pushing myself to keep, so I wasn't alone and much more. I started changing things in my life and I felt just as high as described in the song (sans drugs), and felt at peace with myself for some time.
I used to need all of it to get this high but now I just listen to this and I'm there. Thanks for the shortcut, the free carwash, the pine scented air freshener, it smells just like the real thing!
This is my new favorite song. I heard it on Alt 98.7 a couple weeks ago and I can't stop listening to it. Can't wait to come back and remember I was here before 5k views
Some days you wake up, hit the internet and stumble onto a band that makes you get goose bumps and then think, "Where have these guys been my whole life????" Perhaps, it's the universe rewarding you with some well deserved good karma or maybe it's just a "happy little accident" like Bob Ross would say :)
There's no such thing as "good kharma..." all kharma is bad, it's the bad luck you accrued from being a screw-up in past life incarnations. Good luck is dharma ...but you won't find that in an urban dictionary.
Jon Graham Sir Sly needs more recognition imo. Like they literally have such good music but not even 50k subs on YT and i think not even 1.5 mil monthly listeners on spotify. I think they're growing which is great, but i dont think that they're getting the recognition that they deserve.
More than 15M views. It make sense. This video is brilliant - great toon ! I discovered the song in the Summer of 2017 while driving my convertible Mustang on a beautiful Saturday afternoon listening to Sirus radio. The moment the song come on I cranked it up full blast. High stayed number one for three weeks and in heavy rotation on Sirius for close to 20 weeks from April to September of that year. I have been a fan of the band since then.
Who's here not because of Snapchat, or Thirteen Reasons Why, but because these guys are fucking amazing; and you've discovered them (Sir Sly) all by yourself? Also, Landons Vocals are off the charts 😍
They performed on The Late Late Show with James Coburn this early early am. Never heard of them. Catch it on you tube. Sept 20 2017. I'm Liking them alot.
Let's take a breath and go up another level. One of those friends is in all white; the angel and the other is (obviously) the devil. Just like those old cartoons, the choice is yours, who do you listen to? Maybe a little bit of both?
The first night I heard this with my earphones on, I was at a Starbucks reading, packing my bags to go home and since I live 10 minutes away, I went running home with joy dancing to this song with zero f*cks given. Note that I am an introvert and a shy person half the time.
@@jay.ostojic they are and I hope we’re all working hard to live these moments with savory towards something we care about and in reward, rock out to this song!
As a former addict, this song perfectly describes what it’s like to do a fat blast or shot or take some pills or drop some acid when you’ve been sober for a long time and you were hating every minute of it. This song played in my head many times during that aforementioned scenario, figuratively, before I ever heard it.
@@chukim8012 yeah man, I’m still kickin’. Pretty much trying to stay sober these days though. I was sober when I wrote that too, the crappy thing about being a former addict and big time druggie is that the memories and positive associations never seem to go away, even though it was miserable and pointless
![half•alive - still feel. [OFFICIAL VIDEO]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/KOOhPfMbuIQ/mqdefault.jpg)
This song falls into that category of music that captures a very specific feeling near perfectly and i just can't get enough of it.
I call this my chill aesthetic vibes music 😂😂 best way I can think to describe it
just like being high
@@herbertusdergmiatliche .... haha! That's Way Funny..
Very, Very [(Almost $urprisingly)] Accurate..
Great point th⁰; Seriously.
@@areyoumybuddy just like having a stroke
It's like being up for two days on Lucy and your brain is humming filled with memories, just knowing monday is a few hours away.
This song is criminally underrated.
Exactly !
It's ours. And that's enough for me.
have you ever heard of the slowed down version of it thou? it hit different ua-cam.com/video/iC2xZP2ior8/v-deo.html
it literally has 14 million views wtf
14 M views is not underrated idiot
I'm in my mid-60's, growing up in the 60's and 70's with a lot of great music. When I heard this I had to add it to my mix.
This song really makes you want to live the same day over and over again to find out who your killer is.
🤣 I have to thank Happy Death Day for exposing me to this wonderful song. It fit the ending credits so well!
Hah! You beat me to it 😂
I'm in love with those synchronised dance moves
Idk why but I'm obsessed with this
AstroPenguin sameeeee
OBSESSED ALREADY!!!? it was uploaded today! its a really good song tho
The Roblox Player yeah😂, the audio was uploaded earlier though
oh, my bad :P
AstroPenguin because it feels good to be running from the devil
This aesthetic wtf .. why do I love it so much. It's so simple yet so satisfying...
Perfect 4/20 song
The dancing hands down is the best thing about this video.
Tara Compton hahahaaha i love that step! hands down!
So true!!
Just found this song again! Many years later as I listen to it I automatically do the dance!😂
What about him saying it feels good to be above the devil, the she devil is dancing on he's left.....
oh no its not. the song is.
Pure poetry and neural resonance.
Awe
I don't think I'll ever be tired of this song.
This song is the best. Teaching us to leave the angel and devil behind ... and I'm up another level!!
This song came to me 3 days after nearly a decade of self destructiveness. I am no longer the owned but the owner of this ship I'm sailing. This song is a gift of God to me at this time in my life.
Awesome buddy! I've always been battling self destructive behavior. God bless! Heres to living life free and prosperous 💪👍
I feel that sense that's were I'm at currently....but this band and songs like this keep me in control a little more😊😊
Proud of you man 👏👏
I hope things are still moving along for you! I know it's been a while since you posted this comment, but never forget that feeling you had 4 years ago!
Feel ya! It's wild how certain songs find us at certain times in our lives
I literally have no idea why but I LOVE this song
Anybody else play this video at least 10 times a day?
Jane Bartell me
Jane Bartell wow 111
yeah
Mhm
Jane Bartell that's real sad

They are great live!
@@ÑEZ0688 for real man, they had the equivalent to a standing ovation for an outdoor amphitheater rock show.
That's a hell of a show! A trio of great bands.
I'm obsessed with this! It's not every day where you find good alternative music with great visuals and DANCING all wrapped up in one!
Perfect example of a low-budget, high-quality music video
I thought the video hit home,on more was than one
...
This is low budget?? Lol, they used a shit ton of props. And that statue of the brain at the end probably cost a lot.

Music video director/producer chiming in here. This video definitely cost at least $40k. Don't know if that's cheap to you or not.
Been listening to these guys for a couple years now, glad they're getting the recognition they deserve.
..I'm 66..this is some of the (can I say) nicest music I've heard since discovering the Editors a few yrs ago..some music is just no matter how old we're not...🦋🌸🤧
Definitely! I’m 50 and it just reminds me of great 80’s diversity!
Absolutely brother
I'm 53
I'm in LOVE with this song.
I CANNOT GET THIS SONG OUT OF MY HEAD!
Saw these guys in concert not too long ago for work and I was pleasantly surprised. I looked them up and they sound exactly the same recorded as they do live. I’m a new fan!
Love how his friends help him through his bad time in the pink room. 😀♥️✌
Katie Lembo thx for the invite 😒
Sooooo jelly
Nice - that's how I always rated a band... if they sounded like they did 'in concert' vs. 'on album'
I love when artists sound the same in concert. Thats what put me off rap
my new favorite band...just high energy-feel good- positive stuff!!
"Trying to love the little things, even if they are hard to love." hints of mindfulness meditation.
Why am I just hearing this now? AMAZING!
wow! Ryan from the Office looks good with long hair and is one hell of singer

Finally someone gets it. That's what I'm using it for. I just wanna "for the first time in a long time to feel like me"
I hear that!
IM OBSESSED
*Heard this on Alternative Rock radio & in Happy Death Day.... I fell in love!* ❤️
I foudn it in Happy Death Day, then I heard it very faintly when I rewatched a scene from the 1st season of 13 reasons why
dude happy death day 🤣🤣🤣 i went to see that in theaters when i was 13 and i still can’t forget the song 🤙
Love this song.. glad popped up on memories
This was on the radio all the time last year. This was the jam.
I just realized that sir sly = seriously
Thank god i discovered this bad
pink capote
pink capote *that was sir sly of him*

No se cómo no escuché esta rola antes, es un hitazo 👌
Def were up another level when they filmed this video.
this song is so dope

Impossible to not move when listening to this song!
I listen to this song on repeat when i smoke, i love exhaling and sitting back when he starts the "feels good to be running from the devil" part
just so electro sound just so good
I used to need all of it to get this high but now I just listen to this and I'm there. Thanks for the shortcut, the free carwash, the pine scented air freshener, it smells just like the real thing!
Thank GOD for you 🙏
Thank you for being there. Thank you for singing. Thanks for the new wonder of the world "Sir Sly" ♥ ♥ ♥
His voice never gets old.
An infinite loop of knowledge
Oh my god these guys are bad ass!. I want to go to their concerts just to see the dance moves!
jacquelyn mcdonald Their dance moves are even better live 👌🏼
My memory of this song will always be, driving through sunny California and seeing the golden gate bridge across the bay for the first time.
0:50 my favorite part
Me too
Same
Onelightout ' saaaammmmmeeee
My favorite part is 1:51

Everything about this is pleasing
This song is so catchy. I heard it on the radio. “The battle’s lost but I feel I’ve won.”
Good song to listen to during a hurricane 🌀
I love this song, it's part of my morning mix to get ready for work
You are so pretty!
The weirder the artist the better the music
Chloé Fuller yassss

Chloé Fuller Watches Yellow Submarine
Yeah that’s usually how it works. Drugs? Na
Die Antword.
I memorised this song way back in 2017.
It’s 2025 now and I woke up singing this song.
Strange, it also randomly popped into my head after all these years. Good stuff.
I love this song
I heard it the old school way... on the radio...FM. Whaaaaattttt
Scott Sargeant same

Lol
Shout out to the other old people who also heard it on the radio. Lol

The dancing in unison is awesome! Just a great performance and song
I heard this song like four years ago and just randomly remembered it tonight. No complaints lol

Stoked about the evolution of your guys' sound. Missed you these last couple of years!
I discovered this because I'm high

No surprise here, but man this song absolutely comes alive when you're stoned
And if you are sober, you automatically starts looking for the tips and rolling papers HAHA
So COOL!!
Love their choreographed dances
Every time I hear this song I blaze up and dance like nobody’s watching!😍😆✌🏽
I'm doing that right now lol
great song
waow it’s already been 5 years i remember when it just released

Same lol
A few years ago it was like "who are these guys, and how is every single they release so damn good?" ... I was excited to hear them get radio play.

Legend has it they were high while making this video
Come to Austin or Dallas!!
I love their energy
Who's here not because of Snapchat, or Thirteen Reasons Why, but because these guys are fucking amazing; and you've discovered them (Sir Sly) all by yourself? Also, Landons Vocals are off the charts 😍
i found them looking for music I liked other than EDM
I saw them in upcoming artists
Simone. Im in love with alt rock and i don't watch thirteen reasons why, and must of missed the snapchat filter. 😁
They performed on The Late Late Show with James Coburn this early early am. Never heard of them. Catch it on you tube. Sept 20 2017. I'm Liking them alot.
Local radio station live 105
This song is one of the best songs I have heard in years! This is an instant alt classic, as well as Run
This song pops into my head at least once a day. Video-wise, I love that these dudes can dance, and they just went for it.
THIS SONG IS AMAZING!
this is how my mind feels whenever im high lol
music that helped me through a difficult time, thank you
Great music & I like the psychology behind it. Notice how his friends have his back the whole way through 😀✌♥️🌎🌠
Yes I love that
Let's take a breath and go up another level. One of those friends is in all white; the angel and the other is (obviously) the devil. Just like those old cartoons, the choice is yours, who do you listen to? Maybe a little bit of both?
Have this song stuck in my head for daaaays!
* dancing up the street @ midnight with headphones pumpin*
This song sounds like a mix between Foster The People and Cage The Elephant
Fr fr
YES
Don't forget Brick + mortar
Same thought!!
It sounds to me if Cake and Gary Newman had a baby this would be it 😎🎸
Best artists I’ve ever seen. Baton Rouge, LA and they sounded better live, so talented!🙏🏼
Man this song is so dope high
The first night I heard this with my earphones on, I was at a Starbucks reading, packing my bags to go home and since I live 10 minutes away, I went running home with joy dancing to this song with zero f*cks given. Note that I am an introvert and a shy person half the time.
It be like that when this song hits
Just shows how good this song is :)
thats it man!!! happy for you! those moments are the absolute best arent they? :)
@@jay.ostojic they are and I hope we’re all working hard to live these moments with savory towards something we care about and in reward, rock out to this song!
Hey weird thing. If u want to find out some more music like this text me. I'm a little introvert little extra and this is the music that gets me uo
this song makes me feel like the hero of my own journey
❤
You are.
Im gonna learn that dance!!
I'm in love with this :D
Oh my god this is if saint motel and the neighborhood had a child this would be it
A child with Foster from Foster the People's voice. I swore he went off and started another band when I heard this song.
GK Smith-McCarthy reminded me of it instantly by the "ooh" part
Just going to squeeze in here before 1 billion views...
it wont even hit a million
Goinggoinggone123 take that back
I've seen the number of views double in the last week. Maybe not a million, but it's climbing.
Goinggoinggone123 stop exaggerating
I'm surprised it's not there yet. This has been top of my playlist for over a month but now sadly, just got pipped... Funny Guys Great Track!!
The potassium snack at the end is what gets me the most. What a masterpiece of music and video.
