Dude.. I sit here thinking to myself how much value and joy your music has brought my life and how it's all been free for anyone to have. I am a lifelong fan. Please come back man the world needs you. We all could use your good vibes. Much love and mad respect
This song never fails to bring me back to summer of 2017, float fest san marcos. Me and my friends saw Mac Miller for one of his last shows he ever performed. Was an excellent and heart felt performance. Rest up Mac ❤
"I'm only asking where are my friends" Everytime time I listen to pretty lights it brings back memories of my friends who are no longer with us. It really does feel like it was only yesterday we went to red rocks, filmore, shows in Denver etc. Love you guys RIP
themk23 I have recently discovered Pretty Lights compared to how much time he has been composing music. It was February of 2016. The first song by him I cam across was City of One. A person who was demonstrating how to create Bismuth crystals used it as the background music for his video and I instantly fell in love with it. I saw the name of the arist and the song in the comment section and then I searched for him. I just couldn't get enough. Every song I listened to was just amazing.
I don't know why Pretty Lights, but your name, your song titles and most of all your music itself resonates with me so much. It comes alive in my mind and just seems so right. I feels like it's more of an experience or the presence of a good friend rather than music. Please keep it coming, it keeps me company.
I'm from Telluride, and I went to both your shows there when I was in high school. It was so magical, and that was the first experience I'd had with rave culture and EDM culture. I remember saying to my mom, "these people are my tribe". Thank you for bringing that magic to such a remote place.
got to see this live w my 16 year old son what a moment....i always wished to hear it again....pure bliss...were to generations met in the middle and it was only love there..makes me sad that we will probably never have a show as great as that in our city but happy i was there...respect.
ONLY YESTERDAY WAS IT WHERE WE THOUGHT IT WAS TOO SOON FOR PL TO COMEBACK... I will let this sit here for when the new album drops and we come back playing classics.
it feels like, it was only yesterday, when PL stole my heart away. Crazy how time flies. I know I speak for so many people when I say Derek is one of the biggest reasons we shine bright despite the plight. Stay pretty fam.
I went to pretty lights telluride it was magical the best vibes of people, then later I lived in telluride. Thanks for making a whole energy with your music and community It's the background music to many beautiful moments in my life
This winter marks 10 years since my now wife (then girlfriend) moved to Telluride for the season. 2014-2015 winter. She was a junior ski instructor, I was a lift operator. That season we didn't get the most snow but we had a blast. The mountains look the same, I look a bit older. We've been married 8 years now and have 2 kids that are starting to ski.... it was only yesterday
What is Only Yesterday! Probably one of the most versatile pieces of music I've ever heard. super innovative, catchy. An anthem for those who can't find their friends.(Captures a generation who lost their friends) definitely deserved its grammy nod
This song was my companion during the pandemic ❤️ constantly listened to this while driving for Favor in Texas. This was the perfect song to listen to while just driving around and enjoying the sun and the sky.
When this officially released 8 years ago I was in such a dark place. Over medicating heavily with benzos, alcohol, and was just a mess. All this time later stable, with the girl of my dreams, in the best work situation of my life. Thank you so much PL and the whole fam, if you’re reading this you’re loved and you fucking rock for being here. Keep going I promise it gets better!!! ❤❤❤
Video is a masterpiece. The atmosphere at those shows is so real that I could feel the vibe through the screen. I can only imagine what it was like in person
Pretty Lights has been my best best friend for almost 10 Years, such a warm companion, so many wonderful advices from this music. You don't have idea how much PL has influenced my life, my take on music, my art, my dreams. One day I hope I can meet Dereck and tell him how much I love his life and how grateful I am.
I almost cant describe this song with words. There are SO many feelings i get from it. Sadness, loneliness, happiness... The list goes on. Out of every song ive ever heard from Derek, this one portrays true emotion in my opinion. Smiles from sadness and tears from joy
Such soothing tunes! And can we all appreciate the work of art this video itself is. From the old school feeling to all the clever details in the edit. Exactly like they describe it..cinematic nostalgia
I heard this song for the first time on a plane over to Ireland. I loved it of course and couldn't stop listening to it. Every time I hear it, I always think of Ireland and how beautiful it was. Only yesterday...
just remembered this stage of my life. looking at these comments from 5 years ago. pretty lights, where you at dawg? This was the soundtrack to a chapter of my life. blessed
This is still my most favorite Pretty Lights song ever because I can connect so well to it. I still remember the first time I heard it. I was on my way to the first time I would be away from my family for a long time, working at a Boy Scout summer camp. I was so worried about what would happen, but out of the blue, just as we were pulling up to the camp gate, this song played on the radio out of the blue. It made no sense to me because normally the radio station was classic rock, but it played Only Yesterday and neither of my parents changed the station despite not really liking electronic music. It felt like a sign to me that everything would be okay. This song became my song for the summer, listening to it every evening, and every time without fail it brought me to emotional tears. I still come back to it and can feel the same feeling of happiness and contentment that I felt at that camp. Thank you Derek Vincent Smith for this gift you have given all of us.
How in the hell does this not have like 20 millions views?!?!?! This is without a doubt, one of the most professionally produced tracks in the last 20 years. Hands down.
After watching this video prob 100 times since it came out, it wasn't until today that I realized my brother and I are in the video! That was one of the best weekends ever. Thank you for two of the most beautiful weekends in one of the most beautiful places, DVS/PLM!!
I listen to this when I get annoyed or frustrated at work, when I do yoga, when I go on hikes w my puppy.. Always brings me back to the present moment & makes me appreciate what I have. Helps knowing the video is filmed in my hometown ♥️ top 10 favorite songs forever ♥️
Heard so much about Pretty Lights but never checked him out... I just stumbled upon this song and thought I might as well listen... all I can say is wow
I just landed here from your Wikipedia page because... I HAD to thank you for your wonderful music. I was listening to Thievery Corp here on UA-cam and suddenly your 'Stay" popped up and got me addicted. So trippy and elegant. Then I began exploring other songs. omg. "Summer's thirst," "Empty station," "Finally moving" (what a wonderful use of the vocals of that catchy and formulaic song!). Thank you again! It's so refreshing to find music with a soul.
I listened to this in october 2016. Indian Summer, the days were getting colder but it was always sunny. Thats why this is my favorite time of the year
This music video sums up exactly why I'll always adore your work. As well as the sum of my entire life's experience living in this great and beautiful state. It's like the absolute best feelings of nostalgia all rolled into one sweet package.
I asked a guy on the golf course to give me a song he likes/ so i could play for everyone - as i was outside on the grill at work / play- Who gave me this song and oh my gosh I’m so happy for me to YOUR MUSIC- I’m in love- lol I looped at this song for hours subsequently! ❤❤❤
Expanded Universe - turned me on to Pretty Lights ... Mighty fine productions on both be halves..... no complaints on either two efforts....much appreciation of both. .

Music is like a universal language that speaks to our souls.

Agreed
He's back!
"I'm only asking where are my friends"
Everytime time I listen to pretty lights it brings back memories of my friends who are no longer with us. It really does feel like it was only yesterday we went to red rocks, filmore, shows in Denver etc. Love you guys RIP
ETERNAL R.I.P.

black mill is like that too
Word! 🔥
🌙🧙🏽♂️☀️
Experimental sandwich...it tastes soooooo good
Haha what a great way to put it
words can't explain what it's like to hear a new Pretty Lights track for the first time
The word "orgasm" cames to mind.
copy that! I just discovered it in October!
I'm from Telluride, and I went to both your shows there when I was in high school. It was so magical, and that was the first experience I'd had with rave culture and EDM culture. I remember saying to my mom, "these people are my tribe". Thank you for bringing that magic to such a remote place.
So remote
Telluride was so sick!!! 🔥
I cannot believe this shit dropped 5 almost 6 years ago. Derek if you still make music, the people are hungry for it my dude. We miss you!!!

Materpiece I never get tired of listening to... In my top 5 favorite songs of all time.

Was just yesterday
Such a chill song. I can put this on repeat and just walk around my city.
ONLY YESTERDAY WAS IT WHERE WE THOUGHT IT WAS TOO SOON FOR PL TO COMEBACK... I will let this sit here for when the new album drops and we come back playing classics.
Watching this in a cold February, can't wait for green leaves to come back... Love from Canada....
I think we can all agree that we need new PL music, especially in these times. This one takes me back. Take care Derek.
it feels like, it was only yesterday, when PL stole my heart away.
Crazy how time flies.
I know I speak for so many people when I say Derek is one of the biggest reasons we shine bright despite the plight.
Stay pretty fam.

You still bring a smile to my face when I come back around n listen to you!!! Love you PL
This music has always been so relaxing to me. It would've been great to have had more songs released

Same! It became by 4:20 song biking around the prairies on the edge of Denver

So much nostalgia. Brought a tear to my eye. Thank you for making beautiful music
Video is a masterpiece. The atmosphere at those shows is so real that I could feel the vibe through the screen. I can only imagine what it was like in person
Who here is stoked for the return of pretty lights!! Mad respect to the man and his vision
My very first PL song. Glad it was this one. I heard it on sirius in the car and ran home to look him up. So glad I did too.
Pretty Lights has been my best best friend for almost 10 Years, such a warm companion, so many wonderful advices from this music. You don't have idea how much PL has influenced my life, my take on music, my art, my dreams. One day I hope I can meet Dereck and tell him how much I love his life and how grateful I am.
I wish more stuff just like this was made more, so trippy with the chillest vibe
Pretty lights will always be my tune while skating!
I almost cant describe this song with words. There are SO many feelings i get from it. Sadness, loneliness, happiness... The list goes on. Out of every song ive ever heard from Derek, this one portrays true emotion in my opinion. Smiles from sadness and tears from joy
I don’t think it’s possible to make a song as good as this ever again.
Love driving in the mountains to this one half way out the window smile on face wind in hair. Feels so free.
Who else is rewatching all this stuff bc they are so excited for the comeback 😭😭😭
Such soothing tunes! And can we all appreciate the work of art this video itself is. From the old school feeling to all the clever details in the edit. Exactly like they describe it..cinematic nostalgia
do you know if he used any fan video for the edit?
Reilly West I wouldn't know unfortunately. I'd like to read or listen more about what went into creating the video
All video was filmed & edited by Radio Edit.
Thanks for the info James
I heard this song for the first time on a plane over to Ireland. I loved it of course and couldn't stop listening to it. Every time I hear it, I always think of Ireland and how beautiful it was. Only yesterday...
just remembered this stage of my life. looking at these comments from 5 years ago. pretty lights, where you at dawg? This was the soundtrack to a chapter of my life. blessed
Telluride seems like it was only yesterday when I close my eyes and listen. Such an amazing experience.
Dude this song is incredible... 10/10
bringing the feels and the vibes yet again love you PL
This is one of my favorite songs and accompanying video in all of music. The vibe is so peaceful and together. Truly human.

Pretty lights for some reason was my vibe during the parkour and free running days, the perfect mix tbh
I can only describe PL's music in one way, which is music that you listen to while walking on a rainy night and looking at the world
I live here...literally and figuratively!
Pretty lights - one of the realest, respect
smooth comme je l'entends, ca me redonne de l'humeur que j'avais égaré
Still vibin to Pretty Lights, since 2015. Miss you Derek! Us Coloradans miss seeing you live very much ❤
I've been listening to your music my whole life
Heard so much about Pretty Lights but never checked him out... I just stumbled upon this song and thought I might as well listen... all I can say is wow
One artist that hasn't let me down. Each track, just as good as the last, if not a little better.
Where you at dude? Everybody is waiting to listen to what you've been thinking about........

Fresh and warm - can't believe, after all these years, I still haven't been to a PL show!

This music video sums up exactly why I'll always adore your work. As well as the sum of my entire life's experience living in this great and beautiful state.
It's like the absolute best feelings of nostalgia all rolled into one sweet package.
So many memories. So much nostalgia.
