Getting out of school, jumping in the car/bus to head home.. everyone around you is talking and being social while you shut everything out by putting your headphones on, blasting this song, looking out the window, finally feeling at ease as the song plays. No one ever understood your music taste, but you loved it. Now you’re here again, years later, missing those days.
because his music still better than half the shit that is made today, recycled remixed garbage. Skrillex is still and always will be the dubstep king. The mix of meaningful lyrics with the nice soothing but also crazy hard hitting drops and sick melodies is not what is presented into todays dubstep. It is just hardcore loud noises which is cool but nothing special or worth chasing
Dude, Sorry, But It's only been six years. It's not *That* long ago. It's like you just saw a good show last year and you're all like "man! 9 months ago...So Nostalgic" but whatever. Do your own thing.
Not Jesus yeah I listened to this a lot at a huge a turning point in my life, especially when I was just getting into dubstep. I see your point though. Just for me hearing this bring memories, even if it was just a few years ago. I was 13 at the time, I'm now 18. Few years isn't much when you're younger is makes more if a difference
I miss 2009-2014 so much, man. Those were absolutely the best years of my life. Edit: It's been 6 years since I posted this and my opinion has not changed. I will literally take that shit to the grave.
How do you know those were the best years of you life if you haven't lived all the ones that didn't come yet? My point is that the best year is the one you're living because you're aliiiiiive!
I listened to this song when i was 15 fuckk, all does nights playing with friends mw3 and ghost, now im 20 my friends are married and im about to have a child. Time goes fast people, if you are 12, 13, 14 enjoy life, dont hate life at that ege and just enjoy every second and moment so you can remember when you use to play or do with friends. Time goes really fast for you to be complaining. Enjoy
Sometimes when its snowing Ill listen to this song, and ill just look out the window, sit on my bed, watch the snow, and think of how terrible but beautiful life is.
I was in 9th grade when i first heard this, always has been one of my favorite songs. Never underestimate the power of music. A lot of life has happened, Ive grown, Im 20 now, fought homelessness, abusive parents, all coming out on top. This song would bring a smile to my face even in my darkest hour. Thanks, Skrillex, Ellie Goulding, and all the unnamed behind the schenes people for making this. Thanks.
You are so lved by God. So much that He gave His one and only Son, Jesus Christ, to die on a cross for you, to take every sin you have ever committed, and ever will commit, onto Himself. He did this because you and I are in dire and crucial need of a savior, because we are sinners against God, by nature, and because we have sinned against God and because we are sinners by nature, we are born heading to hell and we also choose to go there by our own deliberate sinful actions. That is what we all deserve for sinning against God, because HE is infinitely holy, and the smallest sin is the greatest affront to His nature. But instead of punishing us, He gave His Son to take that punishment onto Himself, so that we will never have to go there. All you need to do is realize what Jesus did, and accept Him as your Lord and Savior. You don't need to say a certain set of words, but by affirming with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and by believing in your heart that God, His Father, raised Him from the dead, you will be saved (Romans 10:9). God is Spirit, and He is three divinely and infinitely holy beings (the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit) all in one form. It can get confusing but God will help to increase your understanding and wisdom of Him as you grow deeper in your relationship with Him.
I tried riding my bike while listening to this song and honestly it felt like I was going to ride my bike through the heaven. Surreal experience! Try it out people.
Four years ago I was a Junior in high school and this EP came out. I fell in love with it, Skrillex, and EDM as a whole, as did all my friends. Now I've grown up a little bit, going to school, working, and renting a house. Times have changed, and i barely talk to those amazing people that I was once so close too. But every time I feel like reminiscing I just go back to this album and in some small way I feel like I have never left my junior year and all my old friends. Man, I love music :)
I think we all feel that way from time to time, bro. It's nice to know that sings can hold such amazing, and troubling, such heart left and sad memories.
I feel the same,When I was gr 6 I became famous in school because of being a skrill fan ❤ and when it ended now that in gr 7 and I feel a Lil sick about missing old memories I listen to songs by him and remember all the memories we had and break down tearing apart,❤ I love skrillex so Much
My girlfriend broke up with me and moved away back in 2012. I somehow stumbled upon this song, and it saved my life. Listening to it on repeat was the only thing keeping me from going off the edge. Listening to it now brings back some good memories. One of my absolute favorites
My older brother was the one who showed me Skrillex, I’m 15 literally just about to turn 16 and I used to listen to his music ALL the time as a little kid. Glad to know that people come back
Summer 2012, at the bmx track with all my friends drinking slushees. It starts raining so we all go in the announcers booth to stay dry. We start playing this album and this song stuck out the most to all of us. One of most unforgettable moments from my childhood.
+Slender Absolutions check out porter if you need some ideal emotional electronic music. divinity, sad machine, fellow feeling, fresh static snow, sea of voices, basically all of his worlds album.
@@red_response I used to be depressed, especially about the past. Then I started genuinely seeking Jesus Christ and my life changed unimaginably for the better. God is love man--instead of living in the past, I live for God and for Heaven now 🙏✝️
@@a.r.4093 God gave us these beautiful times, even when we were largely ignorant of Him, to show us His grace. And as I have come to understand, to set the bar high, so that His love may still exceed it.
Doesn't music just kinda....take everything off your mind? As if, nothing is left except you. It takes you along a road where things can be thought about, and not have any worries...
4:07 This part is just so beautiful, usually SkrIllex would only use his own vocals for his vocal chops but the fact that he used both his own and Ellie's is just... wow.
2022 this song still saves me.. 26 years of age.. wondering when I’ll finally have my time. Getting it right.. god knows. My best days are still coming
GOD Me and a friend went to an amusement park one time and we went on one of those giant spinning chair rides where you sit in a chair and it lifts off the ground and spins around, and whilst we were doing it, they had speakers all around the park playing this song, IT WAS SO PERFECT FOR THE MOMENT, IT SUITED THE RIDE SO WELL
wow, my best friend and i used to play this song while playing cod ghosts (which we played to the bone). listening to it 3 years later just brings back the feels of those late nights playing cod on the xbox. ive never seen him since 2013.
Dude, my best friend and I always listened to Monstercat and played Black Ops II to the bone (I still play it cause its my fav CoD), and by Monstercat I mean albums 016 - 021 and 007. He moved nearly a year and a half ago due to financial troubles and his ill grandmother couldn't take care of her farm animals and such (he moved to Oklahoma, I live in New Jersey). Now its extremely hard for us to communicate as he got his phone number changed at least 3 times and got all new social media. Last summer we barely stayed in contact and now we talk every few months or so. Now, whenever I hear 3 specific songs, 2 of which were his favorite and listened to nearly 24/7, I get depressed and the feeling gets even worse when one comes on while I play Black ops II.
Skrillex forgot that the best music is usually played alone and not to a crowd. He has gotten much too foucsed on catering for the rave crowd when really this is what I want from him again.
He seems to normally have one or two songs for himself (Like Fire Away with Kid Harpoon) on his albums so that he can both make money catering to a greater crowd and make music he cares about. I could be off-base there, though
Noo he was extremley successful with his Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites album. He didn't continue that style and did his own thing. He didn't cater to anyone but himself
Daniel Franke it seems that society now values performance more than composition, mainly because the main way they make money is by doing shows , festivals and what have you , live, since music streaming has become almost completely free, it’s a little sad but that’s what they had to do :/
i was literally thinking about my past listening to this and crying omg especially considering I listened to this a long time ago and it's my first time hearing it in a long time and I just oh it's almost 3 am I should sleep
Clearly hearing Sonny's voice in Skrillex songs gives me such potent nostalgia for the mid-2000's, when From First to Last was at its peak. I'm still impressed with how well he's shifted creatively.
I used to listen to this seven years ago. I was quite young and I can thank my mom for everything. She would play skrillex for me when I was five/six. I am 13 now. God.
2013 is when I discovered Skrillex. I know it's turned to shit, but I have memories of playing Minecraft while blasting Skrillex way to loudly. Since then, he's moved to China, and I've only seen him once since. Miss you buddy :)
same dude! I used to listen to him like 24/7 w a friend of mine. She got killed last year so now it's hard to hear some of these song and remember her but i have memories of her and they go w these songs
Skrillex can make whatever he wants,even if its a mix or it doesent sound like anything that you might think of.Thats what makes Skrillex so special,he creates his own style
this song right here is just too beautiful. This is my teenage years right here, absolutely amazing song on a great album. Life flies by too fast I swear, gotta try to enjoy every moment
I remember listening to this song when it was released, I was 10 years old, I fell in love with it back then and even after years I still love it, I think that's what makes Sonny so amazing.
Dear Sonny, Now, I know you probably get enough of these messages from around the world and you're well more than sick of them by now, but I'd like to give it a shot and have a say in it myself. To say how much people miss you, THIS Skrillex, the Skrillex that became the most brilliant, hard-hitting and most influential Dubstep artist on the face of the earth, simply can't be put into words. Whether people like you or not as an artist, they can never deny how much you changed Dubstep and EDM forever. I'm not trying to come up with a sob story or make you change your mind about what you make here and now, however I'd like to put my word out there to anyone who's listening and agrees with me that we need you back. Back in 2010, Skrillex wasn't an artist to me (and so many others), he was a lifestyle. A thing you'd come back to after school and go on your computer for SPECIFICALLY for his music. Like then, what got me through the day was Sonny's music. It is and always will be your choice what you do with your career, Sonny, don't let fans stop you from doing what you personally love to do. However please take into account that the Skrillex people knew and loved, isn't with us anymore, and so many of us want you back. We love and miss you for what you were. If you are reading this Sonny, please know that what you produce these days isn't even close to as what you used to do, however that doesn't change how I, how we, feel about you or your music. Know that Skrillex, gone or not, will always be in our hearts for what you were, and what you always will be; a true pinnacle of all EDM and a god of Dubstep. Yours faithfully, a loving fan.
Here I am 10+ years later after first listening to this track and now it's still just as good if not even better nowadays. Now that's what I call timeless!
I didn't know about this Skrillex. I was sitting in a long distance bus in Thailand. watching a Thai car show on the TV with this soundtrack. I took up my camera and filmed it. when I came to my room I downloaded Shazam music recognizer and it worked. YEAH!
A silent heart ticking under the ground Is taking the weight from which has yet to be found If you can hear me now, why don't you recall? I was the one who cared after all....
This song makes me want to cry. It's beautiful and makes me feel like I'm flying above the world. Skrillex is the only person I feel obligated to pay for when I'm downloading music...too bad for us both that I'm broke. I need to download all his albums. And yes that includes the ones before his EDM career as well.
Me too but when I listen to his old songs I feel like I want to cry because it reminds me of my old phone cause I had all of his old songs in my phone but my friend broke it for being a fucking idiot
damn man! those were the days. ill forever remember being in school just before weeks off for summer, going out skating and listening to this song on repeat. I was 14-15 then I cant fully remember, I'm 26 now and it feels like I went to bed and woke up over 10 years older. this song really does capture nostalgia and the good old days during summer!
Did this genre of music just die out? This sound randomly popped into my head and I suddenly remembered dubstep again, it’s been about 8 years for me…replaying Chrispy, Skrillex, etc. only to find out that there isn’t really any new music that sounds like this anymore.
dubstep as a whole never died and will probably be alive for a long while. but this type of dubstep did. brostep & chillstep are dead, nobody mainstream makes it anymore. i'd like to change that.
amo esta canción me trae tanta nostalgia, cuando iba en secundara, me ponia los audífonos y la escuchaba de noche yendo a quien sabe donde, imaginando tantas cosas; gran canción
