Nils Frahm - Says (Official Music Video) 

Today I discovered Nils Frahm; Today was a good day

Perhaps one of the best ambient Electronica songs ever performed and recorded. The ending of this song is unparalleled, exquisite, ecstatic, alluring and hauntingly beautiful.

What is this? how does this song not have billions of views? this is the most powerful sound can get, I never experienced anything like this and my mind is blown

I love watching people describe their spiritual experiences with music. It's the real deal!!!!

Sitting at London Gatwick airport on a moderately busy day. Headphones and listening to this whilst watching the world go by. Strangely euphoric!

I don't know why I feel emotional. I just discovered this song and it feels like it struck something deep inside of me that I've been ignoring for years. I'll listen to this till the day I die

I love how the tension gradually builds and builds until the eventual chord change at 6:05. I get goosebumps every time.

A true masterpiece. Both calming and incredibly uplifting. This piece of music always leaves me in tears, and breathless. It's an incredible achievement.

This song puts me in such a strange mood. I don't know. It's like sadness, but also gives the feeling of the vast unknown. The most unique song I've ever heard.

It's amazing how our souls recognize this song somehow.

Just seen this incredible man live at The Barbican London this evening. Completely blown away. How will I sleep tonight, I guess his beautiful music will haunt my dreams.

"Dad, I'd like to see you again." Loved Ad Astra. My dad died when I was 16, so that line made me tear up. Beautiful movie, beautiful piece of music.

I'm no expert, but this track feels like a once in a lifetime piece. Exquisite!

This is just mind blowing. I barely ever leave a comment but this time I just couldn't help myself. It is unbelievable what Nils Frahm did here. The build up is powerful but the ending is something that stuck with me harder than anything else that I've ever heard. Hearing music like this really makes me happy that I am a human being and I have the ability to hear. This is the best musical piece ever.

I have never had such a strong emotional reaction to a piece of music. The understated, lovely repetition of the majority of the song lulled me into a false sense of security, and then BAM!! I found myself tensed up, straining into my headphones, tears welling in my eyes, transported...somewhere. Somewhere strange and sad; euphoric, nostalgic; filling me with equal parts wonder and pity, resignation and joy; not knowing for what, or why. There is such power in music; after all these years, I am still caught off guard at times. Bravo.

This song says so much! Truly a masterpiece. Seeing people love this music restores my faith in humanity.

That track is designed to provoke an emotional reaction. It's pure engeneered genius. Everyone I I've got to listen was affected by it. Sometimes it's tears of joy or feelings if hope. The realisation that beauty is powerful and will redeem us.

This song is holy. That's the only way I can put it. Every time I listen to it I get a message deep down from within my soul. From the universal consciousness, something calls me, something speaks. I believe a very deep spiritual message and power was speaking through Nils in this particular piece. There is NO OTHER piece of music I've ever heard that has this kind of power. Bless you, Nils. This is my meditation and a portal into God.

Is there a version that goes on for 24 hours because that's how long i could listen to this for. Just close your eyes, don't think of anything else, just listen and it takes you somewhere special. Truly awesome.

I lost touch with my son due to a dispute with his mother. Everytime the final Piano on this song sets in the tears roll down my face and little by little, help to heal my broken heart. Thank you Nils Frahm 🙏🏾

I never ever want it to end...

I'm here, sat, trying to figure how with so little someone can do something so pretty. This song is a pure expression of emotion. An expression of intense feelings. It's pure art. I'm sure that the name of the track was not chosen without reason, this track "Says" it all without lyrics. Without complex noises. It's just a piano melody. We always have the stupid idea that emotions are complex. But it's not like that. Sometimes it boils down to a look, a gesture. That's it. This is why this song conveys a sense of serenity. "Says" it all without saying anything.

Ive been in a very depressed state. This song made the rest of the day worth living

The light shall overcome the darkness, and it shall be glorious 💚

If you ever get a chance to see him live... NEVER EVER TURN IT DOWN!

This isn't a song. This a journey through the cosmos❤

This is a track that no matter how many times I listen to, it evokes such strong frisson, overwhelming emotion. There's a true sense of passion in this piece and I'd love to know what thought processes were going through Nils' mind to compose such a piece.

It's incredible how music that technicly is just noises and sounds with kinda matching frequencies and somehow, it's beautiful and touch our soul...

One of his best compositions.The ripples of sound cascading over each other,gradually building and reaching a crescendo.Exquisite.

This song has such a powerful thinking, nostalgia attraction to it. It's the kind of song that makes you just stare out in the wild, remembering your life and making you wonder what lies ahead. Which choices you will make.

That subtle build-up and ethereal note at 4:47 is so intriguing. What a brilliant piece of music.

I watched this in a darkened room, full-screen, late at night. So profound, I felt purified.

Absolute masterpiece. I wish more people would understand music like this

AD ASTRA I come back from cinema, where I went to see this film with my 13 year old son ... A real shock !!! It is incredible, with sensations worthy of the greatest masterpieces. The realism is impressive, and the music is exceptional, as it is in perfect communion with images worthy of an inner mystical experience, or external. It feels like you're on the moon, you feel like you're on Mars, you feel like you're in space ... It feels like you're alone in your head ... And I had the impression of being both son and father, capable of the best and the worst. I too will try to love ...

After all these years .. I still come back so often to listen to this masterpiece. Thank you Nils.

Complete with a long build and epic release, 'Says' is one of the best psychedelic pieces I've ever heard.

beautiful!

Whenever I feel anxious at work and want to put my mind at ease, I always play this song and it always calms me down ❤️

If everyone understand such music, the world would be heaven

This is the first piece that I ever cry to. Not because it reminds of something or Im being emotional at the time, It's just simply so beautiful :) when I was little and saw people cried to a classical piece, I thought they were exaggerating but now I understand

Genitalny utwór, łzy w oczach, ciarki na ciele. Wow!!!

Oh God..............................................1 song, millions of emotions. Thank you mr Frahm, thank you....

Discovered this incredible piece two or three weeks ago and still can't stop listening to it. That bass at 6:07. The way the sound just unfolds into its final form at 7:02. Just breathtaking. First song in years to give me goosebumps every time I hear it.

In my opinion the best track I've ever heard!

a look, a touch, a response, hand in hand flowing through a color palette, with each step creating more colors, accompanying, feelings, creativity, exploration, flowing through the winding wonders of sound, all together in a sea full of ignorance, floating away

This track is always, always, always amazing and breathtaking and heartstoppingly beautiful.

Got shivers down my spine 4 times listening to this masterpiece!! This piece of music evolves continously from the first second to the last. Adapting and moulding into pure emotion. Breathtakingly good!

Must have listened to this a 100 times or more now and it still gives me goose bumps every time starting at 7:16.

Undisputed raw talent in a class of its own, yet it's interesting to hear Nils talk about this piece as one of his less technical and personally underwhelming tracks. He may be being humble but I think for most people this track represents his most accessible piece, serving as a crucial gateway to his imitable back catalogue. If you're starting your journey with Mr Frahm here, please know you're only scratching the surface and have so many more treasures awaiting you as I implore you to dive deeper into his majestic world of brilliance. I write this with immense envy, as the man can only be discovered once. Love and peace to you all.

I do not know Nils Frahm. I however have been studying his music for about three weeks now. I will continue to do so because I firmly believe he is one of the best artists of our time. I believe it is derived from a passionate drive within him.

A beautiful woman reminded me of this beautiful song - one I had forgotten years ago. Thank you. Beauty comes from the soul.

Martin Roth's "An Analog Guy In A Digital World" brought me here. Absolute genius.

I have a terminal illness and also I have lost my soulmate 7 years ago...so life can be so hard and you just need to find a space to go into without words...but yet it uplifted the soul at the same time..I've had this on repeat for a while before leaving a comment.. I love all music ....but today I found something wonderful and shall be adding this to my funeral playlist..so when grief hits hard then anyone can just for a moment forget worries of death and suffering and just be taken on a journey that is peacefully blissfully amazing all at the same time..🦋🎶🌑☯️

This is the heartbeat of the Universe.

This was truly magical to experience in concert - where the physical power of the sound pushes through your being. Will never forget it. Do go and see him live - absolutely brilliant.

It still makes me cry every time , I think that this track is over everything else, it should me proclaimed the most emotional and elevating music in the whole history

My eyes is full of tears but not because i'm crying.This is masterpiece man...

It’s okay that mere words cannot express the vastness of God because this music does it for us.

How can be unbelievably somthing like this undiscribed unexpressible music and art. I am glad to be within this period of time to listen to his music! Thank you.

this is the best song Ive ever heard. It makes me so emotional listening to it. I saw him in person this year and it blew my mind. Nils frahm is genius level musicianship. I am soooooo grateful for you Nils. thank you for giving your heart and soul into your music, it really comes through.

Ich kann es nicht beschrieben aber dieses Stück fesselt mich, hält mich in ihren Bann. So zart und doch so kraftvoll. Wunderbar.

The most beautiful music on the cosmos. If You want touch "The God" just listen this. I cry every single time.

6:05 brings tears to my eyes. Thank you Nils for this gift to mankind.

I just ate a sandwich whilst listening to this. Most epic. Sandwich. Ever.

I swim high above the city I live in, I swim through high buildings watching people so small, I am small, the build up I swim higher, my arms not tired, the climax I reach heaven, I am free, humble and thankful. I love this music

It's so damn refreshing to listen to this after so many years.

Music is a universal language

AD ASTRA ‪I’m unsure of the future, but I’m not concerned. I will rely on those closest to me, and I will share their burdens, as they share mine. I will live and love.' - Roy McBride ‬

Wunderbar. I'm sitting here on the night shift at the PC and listening to this wonderful music. This makes the currently frightening world a little forgotten. This version could take 2 hours. I'm 61 years old now and I still love techno.

This is so beautiful, I listen to it almost every day.

A good coronavirus "stay at home" song looking outside. From Bordeaux, France.

Ive seen Nils play again and again, and while incredible, I dont think Ive ever heard him as focussed and coherent and passionate as on this recording. THis is amazing

Nils Frahm is definitely the best composer of our generation. Thanks for all !

Float forever ... enmeshed within 6 notes .. and that soft noise from the model echo! Nils Frahm puts hope into post-modern classical music.

This analog guy in a digital world is a genius

I was so, so, SO excited when I heard this in Ad Astra!

RU-vid recommended this song to me a few weeks ago randomly. I was so happy to hear it in Ad Astra when I watched it today! Love this so much, I love how it just builds so slowly.

1 million views! I'm impressed. glad good music is getting the attention it deserves

I have never felt feelings so strong except for in this music. I have, every time, shivers which cross me the body in every rise of intensity. Fascinating and so emotional.

To me this feels like the final moments of life, or of a life.

It is interesting how many of us feel connected to this song is some way, perhaps I’m wrong, yet anyone can interpret music differently ; I find it to be similar to the cycle of life, song start on a lower volume and just the same thing over and over and over it’s the pain we have to endure in life to finally reach the top/success. Once you do, you have a certain amount of time where you will enjoy it before one day life ends as the song suddenly stops, moral is that if your going there a hard time just have patience if you are patient enough and put in the work, then end will be as sweet as this masterpiece ending, have a blessed day guys and be strong 😄

one of his best melody ever!!!

i was totally down today, ... i had this song in my playlist and it went in. I caught myself sitting completly silent about 5 mins drifting away... can' t even explain what how powerfull this song is to me!

I keep revisiting this video every now and then and the emotions it induces increase every time. Once that keychange happens my goosebumps meter is going trough the roof and my cheeks are suddenly covered by teardrops. This is just one hell of a masterpiece....

Never thought I'd see a piece of ambient music get so popular. This is an amazing genre to delve into, people! Nils Frahm, Marconi Union, 36 are just a few of so many talented producers of what is such a beautiful, ethereal, and thought provoking style of music.

This atmosphere, put this art to a whole new level..

Trippy. Creative. Image stimulating. Calm. Trancy. Dreamy. I love that music. I wonder if there are other artist with similar sounds.

The first time I listened to this music was when I watched the premiere of Ad Astra, and then I finished and driven home by myself, it was before daybreak. The car was kept at the maximum volume, and the speed was 110/h on high speed, and it was deep dark at night. There is no car or street light on a section of the road. The part of timeline 5:00 and 5:18’s pictures were exactly what i pictured in my mind at that day when driven home alone with this music. You also know that after 7:00, with the feeling of speeding speed, it is so cool to be alone on the road at night! I’d love to listen to this kind of background music, the fantasy images in my mind, this is first time that I saw the vision version of this music, I’d like to say it really a visualized music just like this video made. This video is really awesome and pictured every detail!!! And in my mind some part are not the same, like The picture at 6:06 would be a ring wave expansion, like normal forward visualization, The picture at 7:07 would be changed to a ring wave retracting inward, like backward visualization, The picture at 7:19, with the former wave collapsed at a point and then the scene blasted off. I don’t know what do you this of that? I just thought that is so cool there’s someone would make an incredible visualized video of some like Ambient music(idk If there’s a kind of type name) And thanks again for making this.

Salma Hayek on Hot Ones, brought me here. I am so happy I arrived. Beautiful.

I have never ever listened to any better musical composition than this great work of art. The last 4 minutes are the best part of the music

Nils Frahms, says it all without using words...😊

I have been searching for this song after hearing part of it in Ad Astra but I couldn't remember where I had heard it before until now

He takes tunes to whole another level, when it reaches the heights I can imagine higher dimensions, only his music can have that effect on me, he should be awarded the greatest musician ever.

One of the most beautiful and cathartic pieces of music ever written! Maestro Nils

Absolutely remarkable music .... moving one to tears, thinking of anything and everything larger than life as we know it.

Never want this to end ..... it’s sublime .....

Says in all the thousands of miles you will travel by land sea and air, sow selfless anonymous invisible acts of peace and kindness from meditations.

Shut your eyes, lay back and let this song take you on a journey. I guarantee you'll feel like a better person by the end of it

Niles fills the emptiness and the bitterness of my soul..

This piece makes me fell whole and hollow at the same time.
