Can I just say your track hometown is absolutely amazing. It's my favourite track and I'm so so pleased I could purchase it on vinyl as I only collect and play vinyl records. Call me old fashioned but vinyl will never die in my opinion. Thank you so much for such a great recording. Much 💕

I'm just leaving this comment here. So that a month, a year, or a decade down the line if someone likes or comments on this thread, I can relive this song. Timeless.
I love how this music video portrays the more intimate, wondrous parts of life. Nobody else is around, it's just you and some inexplicable, magical event that years later you wonder if it even happened.
I saw a metaphor for all of life; everything interesting to us, everyone we've ever loved, every obsession we've ever had, is just us being fascinated by an interesting signal we see in the background of the universe... It's all life really is
The feeling when you were a child and you got into the car with your parents in the early morning to drive to go on vacation sounds exactly like this beat
Songs bring so many memories. Hometown reminds me of being a child as I listened to this during high school. Now the more I grow up in college the more I forget what life is about. I hope to never forget that in my midst of living I am my own home
French 79 représente la renaissance de la musique électronique française ... vraiment il n'a cesser de m'impressionner à chaque track ... hâte de découvrir le nouvel album
@@skwal26 Euh...pour qu'il y ait renaissance il faudrait qu'elle ait disparue un jour, la scène électro française. Et elle est en grande forme depuis maintenant pas mal d'année.
A few weeks ago. Woke up in my tent at first light, in the mountains of central France. Striked camp and got back into my car to continue the trip. Turned on the music. This came up as the car glided along the road, winding downhill between old volcanic chimneys as far as I could see. Colors exploded under the sunrise, towers of volcanic rocks glittering above trees. French 79. Perfect moment.
This song reminds me of how much of a rush life is, everything just has to go fast if you wanna get somewhere in life or that's what we see on a daily basis atleast. Gotta work fast, study hard, and all of that just to get old and have no use for all the hard work in the end anyways, we see people rushing for trains, getting annoyed in traffic jams. All because that's what society requires of us and it's pretty sad. Modern society wants us to rush our lives giving us little to no time to actually enjoy it.
Some of the comments here touched me so deeply. I am weeping. It has made me so happy to have been alive for just a brief hiccup in time. Be safe and love each other, strangers.
*Real* Lyrics: Every time the lights are turning down Then I try to close my eyes to see my hometown I don’t want to change my life I need to go back in time I feel like a child Wearing this golden crown Why do I need to play with my mind?
The future and the past are really confusing But I keep my feet on the ground to keep dreaming I don’t want to change my life I need to go back in time I feel like a child Wearing this golden crown Why do I need to play with my mind? (Note: these lyrics were given by French 79 to Martin Mey for his piano cover of Hometown so we know they are correct. Seems like the lyrics sites just guessed the words)
@@joerayclark listen to Bassnectar- Was will be. This song is so so so good. Its unbelievable how good it is. I listen to it at least once a day. Other songs from Bassnectar I would suggest are: Empathy, and Arps of Revolucion (listen to this as well). I found more after listening: Nothing has been broken, Butterfly, Journey to the Center, Ephemeral, Other Worlds, Reaching out, Irresistible Force, Timestretch, Surrender and Genesis (Grimes) Bassnectar remix. This guy is a mad genius. Each and every song of his is unique. Such creativity and skill, wow. Also Moonwell- HANA
I've never been affected by a visual art like this. It feels so special. The music is good, but the passion in those actors eyes. This expresses sentiment so strong it hurts.
Maybe a little late but damn i feel exactly like that! The tension when they waited for this... thing to happen again, not knowing if it ever will, and (at least it felt like that for me) also being a little ashamed of being so pleasently anticipating it and idk like sort of hiding it from the people around them and feeling sort of special that it happened to them allthough it happened to everybody or at least multiple persons but they don't know because they didn't tell anyone because they were afraid it would destroy that special feeling they got from it. And then it _did_ come back, and they were so lost in their own fullfilment and joyfulness. I don't even know whether anything was meant like I experienced it but it definitely created a feeling, a really strong feeling or atmosphere or whatever without saying anything and that made it very special and intense
I heard this for the first time when me and my girlfriend went to Paris last year. We got back from the city, left the lights off and I stepped on the balcony with a cigarette, looking over the peaceful city glowing at night, just barely seeing the Effiel tower above the roofs of tall black apartments. Smelling the smoke mixed with the cold night air. She turned the song on her speaker and came to me to tell me how beautiful the view is and how happy she is to be here with me. An amazing moment in my life, I hope to never forget.
I love how each of these people is experiencing something extraordinary. They're scared by it at first yet once it's gone, it stays with them, they're unique, with their own experiences of it. For the moments that they see the lights, they're entirely unique and alone in the world, and they crave it again, to understand more. It's beautiful.
This is perfect. I absolutely adore this song. It makes me want to dream, it makes me feel like there is a special purpose for me. I dream of opportunities and peace in this video. I love it more than anything. It calms my mind of every bad thing I swear.
i listened to this on lsd this past weekend and oh my god it was incredible. i closed my eyes and let the close eyed visuals take over, with the help of the light changing to the beat on the screen. it was insane.
On nage en plein dans les 80's sur ce titre...Entre les références cinématographiques et les sonorités du morceau, on est totalement propulsé dans cet univers. Moi qui suit fan de l'ambiance sonore de la série Stranger Things, je suis ravi ! Bravo French 79 !
Everytime the lights are turning blue Then i tried to close my eyes to see my hometown I don't wanna change your life Flying to the back in time I feel like a child wearing his cotton cloth I don't need purified mind The future and the past are really confusing But I keep my feet on the ground to keep trying I don't wanna change my life Flying to the back in time I feel like a child Wearing his cotton cloth I don't need purified mind

@@russellb5573 yes, these are the official lyrics, i know its kinda hard to hear, i had to look them up :D the lyrics on genius and musixmatch are wrong, or at least different from the one posted by his label on apple music...
I love how they are all cautious and have a childlike curiosity about what’s going on slightly worried the first time. It’s something that surprised them from their normal lives. Their way of thought has changed now. Their normal lives are missing excitement. They now look for the action again but don’t find it for a while. The action takes on their life and they think about it while going through their normal lives. They search for something like it nonstop effecting others around them. And finally they find a blissful surrender when they find what they are looking for. They feel connected to something bigger. They are now more...
I'm listening to this while going through my old Tumblr blog, and I can't describe what I'm feeling. It's sad and beatiful how fast the time goes by, and you just can't go back. All you have is old pictures and memories.
Time is weird fucking thing man. It’s sad how fast it goes and in the end you’re left with only the memories. Like a picture in your head and a feeling in your heart.
My new album Joshua is out: smarturl.it/French79-Joshua ! I love the power of music, the way it makes you enter another world, far from reality. I wanted to pay tribute to the era I shaped myself in, but at the same time to also create something that sounds like future to me. Joshua is all yours now. Hope you'll like it as much as I enjoyed making it. Spread the word if you do, your support is much appreciated, see you soon on the tour :)
I don't know why, but the concept expressed in the video (at least in the way I interpret it) is fascinating: an eldritch being or entity that uses light and technology to communicate to individuals that have nothing in their lives or are otherwise bored, all giving them meaning through the light and a purpose: "follow the signal"
Negative. The old woman is also the young woman. The man is also the boy. The little girl is the man's daughter that the old woman is talking to thru the radio.
I have listened this track hundreds of times the past weeks. Makes me feel like there is so much more in life! Thank you French 79, for making this beautiful music 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I skipped this song a few months ago. Today it started playing when I put a recommended UA-cam playlist on TV. I've never been happier listening to a song
Ou quand les Français ont juste du TALENT, ce qui ne s'invente pas, se travaille quand il est là. C'est vraiment très beau cette vidéo, ses plans, ses découpages, superbe ! BRAVO ! I suppose this is what they call or called "The French Touch", which is a damn good "touch"😜!
Cette musique me transporte, me transcende....Je voyage régulièrement avec ce son. Les paysages autour de moi sont ralenti et toujours plus beau. C'est magique !! Merci French 79

I love how the number three is represnted everywhere : - in the melody (it's literally made of three notes) - on the triangles (three sides) - the radio has 3 numbers - the traffic light has three states -3 heartbeats arround 1:35 edit : i know it kind of also works with 4 but am too lazy to update this. it's also funny to see how this comment is getting more attention recently than when I originally posted it
I have to admit that this was my best discovery in 2020 so far. The photography is fantastic, the music is just perfect. Absolutely fantastic work. Unbelievable.
I was blown away when I first heard this, and now weeks later I keep coming back to this song. Simon/French 79 really hit it out of the park on this one. The wonderful synth sound design mixed with these vocals is divine. thank you for this art, and please make more
Je ne pourrais jamais exprimer totalement mon ressenti quand j'écoute ce titre, tellement il est pure, profond et intense ! Je ressens à la fois de la joie, de la tristesse, de la nostalgie, de l'énergie... Je suis très sensible à la musique tous styles confondus, mais ce morceau... p***** ce morceau... c'est un joyau, vraiment... Merci @French79 d'avoir inventer le morceau qui est certainement celui qui me transcende le plus, de la tête aux pieds et par delà les sens et notre condition humaine... 🙏🎶
This video has rapidly become an all time favourite. The song and music are already so evocative, and the video just hints at a deeper unspoken truth of what fascinates us all. 10/10, a true masterpiece, this video has literally moved me to tears thinking about the metaphorical relation to all of our lives.
To me this song & video is about the patterns we see all around us, that we attribute to an existence bigger than ourselves. It is as though our own inner dimensions determine the forms that are most meaningful. In that communication we find a purpose that cannot exist simply by being.
I love this song not just because its so danceable and paced well, but because it's very hopeful-feeling. I love the builds at the beginning and end - the whole track is splendidly arranged, truly!
I discovered this song during the first week of quarantine last year, and I can't describe the vibe it gives me. Something felt unreal about that first week in March. This song perfectly encapsulates the overall feeling of that time; it is amazing.
Omg, had the pleasure after nearly 14yrs absence, watching LEFTFIELD live in Cardiff Utilities arena along with Orbital. Absolutely blown away. Only track they didn't play was release the pressure. Stunning night. 😊😊😊
I don’t see any comments saying this ... this is beautiful .. the universe talks to us, our dead loved ones... they show us beauty in this world, they communicate through numbers flickers of lights.. we aren’t alone, and that’s ok, they’re with us, and late at night when no ones around is when we can truly feel and experience the other side ❤️❤️🧿🧿🧿👁👁👁☮️☮️🌈🌈❤️❤️
i really needed to read your comment; my bf past away 4 months ago and i am constantly getting small gifts from him & reminders that he is ever-present
This video is just incredible. For me it’s about how we/our feelings and the way we see the world change since childhood. How we always wait for a sing, some special sign, maybe from walky talky or from the sky…and we get them but mostly dont even notice

*Real* Lyrics:
Every time the lights are turning down
Then I try to close my eyes to see my hometown
I don’t want to change my life
I need to go back in time
I feel like a child
Wearing this golden crown
Why do I need to play with my mind?
The future and the past are really confusing
But I keep my feet on the ground to keep dreaming
I don’t want to change my life
I need to go back in time
I feel like a child
Wearing this golden crown
Why do I need to play with my mind?

Wearing his cotton cloth
I don't need purified mind
The future and the past are really confusing
But I keep my feet on the ground to keep trying
I don't wanna change my life
Flying to the back in time
I feel like a child
Wearing his cotton cloth
I don't need purified mind
Its "lights are turning down" and not cotton cloth but "goddamn crown" and its "why did you go back in time?"
Also its not purified mind but "why do i need to play with my mind"
@@tomatenbomber8830 You sure it isn't "golden crown"? LOL
@@russellb5573 yes, these are the official lyrics, i know its kinda hard to hear, i had to look them up :D the lyrics on genius and musixmatch are wrong, or at least different from the one posted by his label on apple music...
John B thx.
I love how they are all cautious and have a childlike curiosity about what’s going on slightly worried the first time. It’s something that surprised them from their normal lives. Their way of thought has changed now. Their normal lives are missing excitement. They now look for the action again but don’t find it for a while. The action takes on their life and they think about it while going through their normal lives. They search for something like it nonstop effecting others around them. And finally they find a blissful surrender when they find what they are looking for. They feel connected to something bigger. They are now more...
I'm listening to this while going through my old Tumblr blog, and I can't describe what I'm feeling. It's sad and beatiful how fast the time goes by, and you just can't go back. All you have is old pictures and memories.
Time is weird fucking thing man. It’s sad how fast it goes and in the end you’re left with only the memories. Like a picture in your head and a feeling in your heart.
I feel like we're all waiting for something magical to happen to us. Maybe, instead we could make magical things happen for others?
Such beautiful cinematography
My new album Joshua is out: smarturl.it/French79-Joshua !
I love the power of music, the way it makes you enter another world, far from reality. I wanted to pay tribute to the era I shaped myself in, but at the same time to also create something that sounds like future to me. Joshua is all yours now. Hope you'll like it as much as I enjoyed making it. Spread the word if you do, your support is much appreciated, see you soon on the tour :)
I love it. It's a French 79 ! See you @ Burg Schnabel
Love the power!
amazing I just found you but keep working I love this album!
is there a meaning behind the video I love it
Man, your album shakes up my feelings and i absolutely love it! The whole thing is stunningly good. Thanks for this masterpiece
Holy crap man. This music is bring me to tears. So much emotion just flooding through me
This is the first time I heard this amazing music .
I don't know why, but the concept expressed in the video (at least in the way I interpret it) is fascinating: an eldritch being or entity that uses light and technology to communicate to individuals that have nothing in their lives or are otherwise bored, all giving them meaning through the light and a purpose: "follow the signal"
Negative. The old woman is also the young woman. The man is also the boy. The little girl is the man's daughter that the old woman is talking to thru the radio.
Non sense.
Este video describe ala perfección la comunicación con Los Ángeles
MY FAVORITE BANDS! French 79, La rueda o el barco, Metronomy... This has been a great year !!!!
I have listened this track hundreds of times the past weeks. Makes me feel like there is so much more in life! Thank you French 79, for making this beautiful music 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Totally agree🙏🙏🙏

This song randomly appeared in my recommended. I'm really glad I clicked on it; this was really good!
Saaammmmeee!! And I'm not disappointed.

SAME
I skipped this song a few months ago. Today it started playing when I put a recommended UA-cam playlist on TV. I've never been happier listening to a song
Tin. Simon, vous envoyez de la purée, magique. Merci, continuez.
Comme toutjours. Magique. Cocorico!
J'adore le petit clin d'oeil de la pyramide inversée.
Ou quand les Français ont juste du TALENT, ce qui ne s'invente pas, se travaille quand il est là. C'est vraiment très beau cette vidéo, ses plans, ses découpages, superbe ! BRAVO !
I suppose this is what they call or called "The French Touch", which is a damn good "touch"😜!
Cette musique me transporte, me transcende....Je voyage régulièrement avec ce son. Les paysages autour de moi sont ralenti et toujours plus beau. C'est magique !! Merci French 79
Moi aussi.
Sublime. Me trasporta también, y me hace viajar y me eleva ... Magnifico!
No one is talking about how good this video is. Like you could do like a whole tv show about this and I’d watch it.
*Netflix lurking from the dark*
Masterpiece
French virtuose absolument fabuleux tout ses morceaux sont tout simplement une parfaite alchimie bravo 🎶🎹🎧♥️♥️
Lyrics:
Everytime the lights are turning blue
Then i tried to close my eyes to see my hometown
I don't wanna change your life
Flying to the back in time
I feel like a child wearing his cotton cloth
I don't need purified mind
The future and the past are really confusing
But I keep my feet on the ground to keep trying
I don't wanna change my life
Flying to the back in time
I feel like a child
Wearing his cotton cloth
I don't need purified mind
I just gave you the 69th like.
@@kaushalparmar2118 thank you, it really means a lot ❤️
99th from me shit wanna be 100 lol thank you btw
There's lyrics?
That opening is phenomenal!!!!
Reminds me stranger things scene yes it's amazing
That's what she said
@@michaelfilippi1520while she was riding the bull 😅🎉😂❤
This song gives me that "Everything will be alright" vibe
I love how the number three is represnted everywhere :
- in the melody (it's literally made of three notes)
- on the triangles (three sides)
- the radio has 3 numbers
- the traffic light has three states
-3 heartbeats arround 1:35
edit : i know it kind of also works with 4 but am too lazy to update this. it's also funny to see how this comment is getting more attention recently than when I originally posted it
Good observation, ternary rythm thats it !! :)
Wow. You’re amazing.
i think there were 4 heartbeats unless im mistaken but otherwise yea
The kids also paint triangles and squares so it's 3 and 4 I guess Is some sort of progression?
@@edoardom3677 I guess you're not wrong since there is a 4 number (I don't have the word) melody at the start
I have to admit that this was my best discovery in 2020 so far.
The photography is fantastic, the music is just perfect.
Absolutely fantastic work. Unbelievable.
La touche française sur l'éléctro est vraiment unique ! Amazing tune !
C'est booon ce son!
I was blown away when I first heard this, and now weeks later I keep coming back to this song. Simon/French 79 really hit it out of the park on this one. The wonderful synth sound design mixed with these vocals is divine. thank you for this art, and please make more
And I always thought it was Sarah Rebecca's voice. hehe
Je ne pourrais jamais exprimer totalement mon ressenti quand j'écoute ce titre, tellement il est pure, profond et intense ! Je ressens à la fois de la joie, de la tristesse, de la nostalgie, de l'énergie... Je suis très sensible à la musique tous styles confondus, mais ce morceau... p***** ce morceau... c'est un joyau, vraiment... Merci @French79 d'avoir inventer le morceau qui est certainement celui qui me transcende le plus, de la tête aux pieds et par delà les sens et notre condition humaine... 🙏🎶
This video has rapidly become an all time favourite. The song and music are already so evocative, and the video just hints at a deeper unspoken truth of what fascinates us all.
10/10, a true masterpiece, this video has literally moved me to tears thinking about the metaphorical relation to all of our lives.
To me this song & video is about the patterns we see all around us, that we attribute to an existence bigger than ourselves. It is as though our own inner dimensions determine the forms that are most meaningful. In that communication we find a purpose that cannot exist simply by being.
I love this song not just because its so danceable and paced well, but because it's very hopeful-feeling. I love the builds at the beginning and end - the whole track is splendidly arranged, truly!
This song will devour you if you are not careful
Quelle vision magique de la musique immersive,parfait pour des films.Beaucoup de réalisateurs devraient faire appel à ton talent.
It’s amazing how an extra terrestrial phenomena is making people obsessed. Just like love. ♥️
This song is the theme to 2020 it fits well with the confusion and uncertainty of this year
Those synths melodies, arps... Amazing
THESE WARM SYNTHS HIT MY SOUL 🙌
I hope I never forget this song. Timeless euphoric beauty.
I discovered this song during the first week of quarantine last year, and I can't describe the vibe it gives me. Something felt unreal about that first week in March. This song perfectly encapsulates the overall feeling of that time; it is amazing.
commenting here so that a person with true sense of music can notify me to listen it again;-):-)peace and love✌️❤️
Go men
this feels like clear, warm water and stars running through your veins
This is such an universally emotive and nostalgic tune 🤗
Merveilleux, c'est une musique très puissante! Bravo French 79, vous êtes les meilleurs!
It crazy to think that someone's making incredible music right now, but I won't discover until a year or so from now.
Omg, had the pleasure after nearly 14yrs absence, watching LEFTFIELD live in Cardiff Utilities arena along with Orbital. Absolutely blown away. Only track they didn't play was release the pressure. Stunning night. 😊😊😊
Dear French 79, you are my favorite artist. you convey emotion better than anything ive ever seen. thank you
Check out The Chemical Brothers if you haven’t already. I feel that way about them.
Like strangers who become friends and we are glad at the sight of them...
The world needs more music like this right now.
The most beautiful thing I've ever heard 😍❤️
I don’t see any comments saying this ... this is beautiful .. the universe talks to us, our dead loved ones... they show us beauty in this world, they communicate through numbers flickers of lights.. we aren’t alone, and that’s ok, they’re with us, and late at night when no ones around is when we can truly feel and experience the other side ❤️❤️🧿🧿🧿👁👁👁☮️☮️🌈🌈❤️❤️
I-love that.
i really needed to read your comment;
my bf past away 4 months ago and i am constantly getting small gifts from him & reminders that he is ever-present
This song and video is one of the most beautiful expressions of it I've ever seen
This is such an incredible song! I feel as if I could fall into the deep layers of sound as if they were an endless pit of feeling
This video is just incredible. For me it’s about how we/our feelings and the way we see the world change since childhood. How we always wait for a sing, some special sign, maybe from walky talky or from the sky…and we get them but mostly dont even notice
