This song reminds me of how I feel about my husband. It took me 48 years and 2 divorces to get it right. Life is good when you are with someone who takes care of you AND your heart...no more tears!
It took me 40 years and 1 divorce to find my satellite. We’re still happily married 10 years later and now have a 4 year old daughter. I’m 50 and he’s 42! 🥰
Seriously. Here's what annoys the crap out of me. The "alternative" station in my area plays crap like Green day, and the Offspring, like they just came out last week, but never play this and other great songs.
@@jackieacheson4928 its a good thing. Would you rather have it be washed out like those horrible green day tracks that get played 20 times a day? Id rather keep it as the hidden gem it is
"Maybe you will always be just a little out of reach" Thats my favorite line in this song. Because it fits perfectly and is something we can all relate to.
Anyone want to take a crack at the interpretation of the video? When I hear this song and watch this video, I think of the intense loneliness we can feel as a species, even when we're around people. Nature and life don't have to co-exist, but we do. And as Wordsworth puts it, "[nature's] immensity disturbs us with joy"; it makes us feel incredibly small yet mysteriously connected to something greater than ourselves. Although the boy and girl are alone, I think they also find some joy in their melancholy, pensive thought and introspection--a process which, somehow and someway, connects them to the greater universe.
This masterpiece has so much heart and vulnerability, which is so rare today. Guster is like the first post-nuclear flower. God bless all of them with success and good fortune. They make me believe in God again. Thank you Guster!
Shining like a work of art, Hanging on a wall of stars, Are you what I think you are? Youʻre my satellite, Youʻre riding with me tonight, Passenger side, lighting the sky, Always the first star that I find, Youʻre my satellite... Elevator to the moon, Whistling our favorite tune, Trying to get a closer view... Youʻre my satellite, Youʻre riding with me tonight, Passenger side, lighting the sky, Always the first star that I find, Youʻre my satellite... Maybe you will always be, Just a little out of reach... Youʻre my satellite, Youʻre riding with me tonight, Passenger side, lighting the sky, Always the first star that I find, Youʻre my satellite Youʻre my satellite...
i fell in love with this song when it was on the "Muzack" score when i was worked at Macy's...was the highlight of every shift when this would come up int the rotation...it's just so beautiful and haunting
Makes me think of my college days and how every night out held the promise of finally finding “the one”………..!!!!!!! So many near misses, but I love each and every one of you for what you brought to my life - even if just for an evening gazing into your pretty eyes……….🤩 My son goes off on his journey starting next fall - Inhope he enjoys every moment of this special time in life……….❤
Seeing them live was so wonderful. They sound even better live and when this song came...everyone knew the lyrics and it was so magical! Guster and their magic~
Been looking for this song for so many years, I totally forgot this song because they rarely play it on the radio. I'm so glad it just randomly popped up in my RU-vid recommendations because 2018 has been a hard year to deal with.
Wow this comment did not age well. Guster changed everything i thought about music, and i stopped listening to them for a while and more recently started listening to them again, along with Dispatch and forgot how much both those bands meant to me in middle and high school when I was really coming into myself. Now as a 34 year old I can look back and see the true genius I saw but was unable to recognize. Old songs will always take on new meanings as the world and our selves evolve. one love
Great song!!! The music kinda reminds me of fleetwood just a little, not the progressions or melodies in the song but the tonality of it brings me back to the early 80's, especially drum tone. This track has so much vibe to it, simply amazing sound and structure!
This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard, and the video is an absolutely exquisite, haunting work of art. At the very least, Guster should be opening for Coldplay. With permission, I'd give everyone connected with this song and video design a great big hug and a kiss.
I used to hear this song working at Walmart. Never knew the name or artist of the song until I looked up Walmart's song playlist. I'm glad to finally find it so I can download it now. :)
Thats how I found it. Shopping at wal-mart (s), old southern people tend to use an s on everything, but heard it barely as bumper music. Typed in what I thought were lyrics and found it.
I recall first hearing this song in March of 2007 upon my return from abroad. I was visiting some friends and in a strange state of mind when this song came on my friend's iTunes. It really struck a chord with me then, and that was only taken to another level after watching this video. It bemuses me that this song came out over five years ago, yet both the song and video remain timeless.
Wait, what the hell? I was about to say I was here because of Drew, but then I recognized the song. I literally have this liked on my Pandora station and have for months now lol. I guess that's what happens when you have ~700 likes/influences on a single station.
Guster is one of the greatest bands ever. 6 years running on last.fm they are one of my top most listened to artist. Wherever you heard them from, I'm glad more people are listening to Guster :D
I can't believe this song only has 600,000 likes. It's such an amazing song. I think this pretty perfectly embodies how people feel when they break up and there are no hard feelings but a little bit of regret.
This randomly popped up on my youtube music track list. I had totally forgotten about this song, was one of my go to songs on my bus ride to college. That was over 14-15 years ago. Seems like yesterday...
That is amazing! I would be so delighted to see them playing for free and so cool (or cold) in the SNOW! How neat. They are a great alternative band ... small, but the kind of band I love. Thanks for sharing :) t
You ever feel so lost in life. And you listen to music. just to ride the emotional surf tube ,just escape the reality of who you are. Always in search of something in life that can turn your darkness into light. You have God in your life,but your looking for something to make life a little more . Meaning full.
I'm playing this song in dedication to sweet Dear Insight on Mars who gave us so much great information during her life and sent a message signing off to us the other day. Love Love Love to you, Insight!!! God's Blessings to Resurrect you on Jesus' Return!!! In Jesus' Mighty Name, Amen!!!
Been looking for this song,couldnt remember the lyrics,just the tune. Then today,I walked into a pizza joint to use the restroom,there it was,playing making my heart smile. Oddly enough,once I looked up the song,everything came back to memory of watching the vids,the band name.Odd. Hell even remembering that I read the lyrics.
Pandora just introduced me to Guster today. I haven't heard the rest of their songs yet, but judging by this, Guster seems like a good 'Shins" alternative. I'm stoked.
I literally heard this song like 50 minutes ago while waiting on a T-Mobile Expert to connect to the line to fix my grandparents' Wi-Fi. All I heard was "You're my satellite," and immediately knew this was a hidden gem simply based off the fact that T-Mobile is a wireless network and the hold song that was playing was referring to a satellite. I know, comically ironic. Also, T-Mobile's hold music actually slaps, in my opinion, and I've found songs through there more than any other platform, strangely. My grandparents' Wi-Fi was fixed, they ended up getting a replacement router for free, and the customer service rep and the troubleshooting specialist were honestly so sweet! They wouldn't allow me off the phone until the issue was fully resolved so I wouldn't have to call for a mishap such as that one again. I then decided I had to listen to this song in remembrance of such a successful customer service phone call on a Friday morning.
