This song helped me through my husband's journey with Brain Cancer. It was my sanity song.... The diagnosis was like this huge mountain before us, looming larger by the day, seeing the darkness in my fate. Sadly GBM is terminal. When he was on hospice, I begged for guidance as to how to deal with his impending death. Show me the footholds from which to climb. After his death trying to deal with the trauma brain cancer inflicts upon the person and their loved ones was like a shadow I needed to be further and further away. I'd listen to this song all the time just to find some inspiration, and also to cry to and release some stress and know that I'd be ok eventually. It will always mean so much to me!! The mountain is far behind me now, the shadow has gotten smaller and smaller day after day....
I love how much significance you got out of this song. My condolences for your loss and my best wishes for your continued recovery and strong future. :)
Keep hanging in there..... I know you will get through the pain...
Thanks for sharing. Life can be very tough sometimes. Keep your head held high.
@@kennethjoyce1457 Thank you for the words of support. I'm in a good place now, and still adore this song, both for being a true mental support through the trauma and now the recovery.
@@toddgivens317 It sure can, we all get our own cross to bare. Thankful that music has always been there to help us (for me anyway) through. We just never know when our words or lyrics can really help someone.
View on your phone in fullscreen mode, Standup, with your eyes in full view of your phone, spin round on the spot. Feel fucking trippy.
Wackamole Get Google Cardboard. Even better.
Wackamole You are a genius men!
Wackamole the future is now :))
Why doesnt the sensor work for me, i can look around by dragging :c
Wackamole like the tcnology and the band very well
This song being placed on FIFA is one of the best things that ever happened - brought me down the rabbit hole of Foals!
I was even more surprised to find Phantogram there! :d
FIFA 16 tunes
@@matiog1080 you gotta pay the foals toll if you wanna get into the foals hole
For me it's the most memorable song from any fifa. I've played them all. Great times.
Also on rbi baseball 18
Can't believe this is 7 years old. So great every time I hear it.
After 8 years still sounds progressive. Came back to this sound after all these years,and feel amazed by the soud and and video clip. Wow!
I'm watching this thinking "what a weird video, the camera is looking at the brick floor" then about a min. in I realized YOU can look around 360° this video is SICK!!
SAME!!!
Wtf
That's all of our reactions hahah
It's done for Virtual Reality support (VR).
I hadn't realized till I read this comment 😅
This song saved me from myself. It got me through the darkest period of my life and after all this time it is still to me the greatest song written . I will have this tattooed on me to remind me everyday and appreciate these men for how they saved me and my family ! Its shadow gets smaller day after day
For me too
You the man dude
They didn't save you, you saved yourself. Forming parasocial relationships with people that don't give a shit about you is unhealthy and toxic
Te song “Lonely hunter” may have the same effect! Gives hope in dark times
Pretty sure I'm the only one in 2024..... sad
You're never alone dude, there's ~8 billion people on earth and there's always someone listening.
❤
Nope. I heard this song on an independent radio station 8 years ago and it instantly became one of my favorite songs ever. I listen to it at least once a month.
Nope u aren't 🤗😃🥳🥳
Nope me aswel..heard it on radio x
This 360 go pro thing is amazing.
+NoobArmy24 Then don't watch it on mobile?

Wow ur so cool and hipster! We should all aspire to be like you!!!!!
+OzcarMtl Taste is subjective broh
My line up list for Shaky Knees fest in Atlanta In May brought me here! ( bought 3 day pass specifically) to see The 1975 for the 7 th time! But my venture has brought me to a long overdue awakening of what music I live! And this is it! See ya fellas

This is my favorite song of all time. Ever. Always.
Awesome comment, this band is THE BEST. They get better every song!
The energy is amazing in this and all of Foals songs
Top notch stuff my man...So pure
Pikachu i choose u
Real
But i think The energy is more in this song
Some of it is excellent production that really enhances the strengths. The 🎙 and mixing on the drums is done with excellence.
THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME
There's been numerous 360videos this is nowhere near the best... Just check them out
***** check out my music video im new and im trying to get my music heard
I hate it when I look over my gates and see that damn mountain again
Hahaa
You should enjoy it, life sucks when you're surrounded by buildings...
Flat earth boi
love mountain, thats the real key brother
I know it's a joke, but as a person living in a very montainous area in the middle of nowhere all I can say it sucks sometimes. There are only montains who make entire village live in much colder temperature and have a sun much rarer than it's supossed to be, like god damn, as much as I love my village I wish the mountains were lower so the sun might actually give me a sunburn not "Arrivederci, baby" right after I see it.
Words: I see a mountain at my gates I see it more and more each day What I give, it takes away Whether I go or when I stay I see a mountain at my gates I see it more and more each day I see a fire out by the lake I'll drive my car without the brakes I see a mountain in my way It's looming larger by the day I see a darkness in my fate I'll drive my car without the brakes Oh, gimme some time Show me the foothold from which I can climb Yeah, when I feel low You show me a signpost for where I should go I see a mountain at my gates I see it more and more each day And my desire wears a dark dress But each day, I see you less Oh, gimme some time Show me the foothold from which I can climb Yeah, when I feel low You show me a signpost for where I should go Through lanes and stone rows Black granite, wind blows Fire lake and far flame Go now but come again Dark clouds gather 'round Will I run or stand my ground Oh, when I come to climb Show me the mountain so far behind Yeah, it's farther away Its shadow gets smaller day after day Yeah, gimme my way Gimme my love Gimme my choice You keep me coming around Gimme my fate Gimme my lungs Gimme my voice You keep me coming around Gimme my lungs Gimme my, gimme my Gimme my, gimme my Gimme my, gimme my Gimme my, gimme my Gimme my way Gimme my fate Gimme my lungs Gimme my choice You keep me coming round

THANK YOU
Do you play Mario kart? If so have you raced at GCN Sherbet Land?
I have seen this video like a thousand times and I just noticed
R T is that the one with the fishes or am I thinking of another map
Olivia nah it’s the snowy track in double dash, here I’ll send a link, it’s the first thing I thought of when the song started:
This song is addicting.
First off, I love this song. Second THIS MUSIC VIDEO IS AWESOME! !!!!
Fifa music
+Son Goku I thought this song sounded familiar. I came here because I heard this song on Bein tv earlier.
Yup
With faith the size of a mustard seed you can move mountains.. great song
Most underrated song in recent times. Absolute banger of a tune.
Totally agree. great tune,great vocals, just and overall awesome song. If i had 2 more arms i'ld give it 4 thumbs up.
it is underrated, but not most underrated. Some songs are stuck at 10k or less while being as good.
Fly guy? 🏒
lol it has more than 21 million views
song is years old already and this got radioplay everywhere, 200m streams spotify
Love the random dog that shows up and barks at 1:51. Love this song.
Heard it in 2018….Listening in 2023… still touches my soul.
this song never gets old, its as fresh as the day my music producer friend showed it to me, I had a hard time in high school but the music he showed me made it easier and gave me purpose, I wanna throw him some love while I'm here as we've been through a lot together, try searching Lonely Gimmick - Beaches, it gives me Foals vibes and I'm honestly so impressed he made it, its one of those songs that make you happy when you hear it
If you’re here for Fifa 16, you’re not alone, one of the best Fifa soundtracks ever and this was one of th best songs if not the best, it’s been 7 years now, time flies
How could anybody not like this song? Its so damn good!
Probably because they don't realize the poor video quality is actually due to the 360 capabilities. that was me at first!
music is for the ears, not eyes.
dude do yo play xbox live and is your gamertag master chef? i sweat there is a guy i see playing hardline all the time with the gamer that gamer tag.
Nicholas Carey Not me
I got a feeling this song will never get old. If i was a bit more drunk, I could have cried seeing it live in MN. Fantastic live.
I was sober and I cried like 3 times during the concert. Front row for my favorite band of 5 years... Got pretty emotional
2024 where does the time go i remember jamming to this as a teen on fifa hope everyone is well stick in there my guys
Im really happy they made a video that lets me feel like I'm really at a rock show, staring at my shoes while black spots appear in my vision
this is the future of music videos!
So damn true I won't be surprised if I see this by 2016
The only way I can explain this song is a genius mix between soft rock and modern rock. Favorite song.
***** That's what I thought! I'm pretty sure it's alternative rock, but I didn't want to describe it in a way that anyone could, too obvious.
+Charles William "Hey is that Imagine Dragons?" XD Oh Foals, how far you've fallen.
Andrew Tucker I think their stuff's alright :/
so it is 'rock'
Beautifully said!
7 years later and the song is as beautiful as the day I left it
Literally one of the best songs ever written.

The 360 degrees is dope, but you miss out on the mosh pit (yes, apparently mosh pits are a thing when Foals play Vancouver

This is the type of song I expect to hear after I die.
This songs means so much to me and didn't even realize it till it shed true meaning....I was super depressed, basically homeless and couch surfing...lost my girl my job and was being an addict/alcoholic and then I moved in with some friends out of the south to Colorado and the mountains truly cured my soul and now I've got a great job beautiful home in the mountains and healthy again...thanks Foals, I was foaling up for a min and y'all basically saved me. Come to RED ROCKS! I have to see y'all!
Yoooo congrats. You can be so proud of yourself 👍
Happy trails amigo 💪🏻
2024 still a good song to add to your cardio list
Loose my shit everytime I hear this fucking amazing tune. Can't remember the last time a songs made me feel... well... speechless, for lack of a better word. It's nostalgic, to feel this awake, this broken, lost, this fixed, and found.. This happy. I found this song in a profound, drastically powerful beautiful yet dark and difficult time in my life and it resonates so deeply that I can't put the feelings into words (at least words that will do it justice). By far one of the best bands to come around in a minute! FOALS!
Foals and Royal Blood are one of the few bands I like after 2010.
@@blizzard182 theres more good ones out there!!!!
Idk what it is but this song does feel beautifully dark to mr
Lose*
Found Foals when i went to see Cage the Elephant live. Started listening to their music years after. When im going througu a hard time, this gets put on repeat.. sometimes for days. Thank you foals.
if you like Foals you should check out Lonely Gimmick - Roll Me Over, it gives me Foals vibes and it's one of the best new indie songs I've heard plus its got a really cool low budget music video
Saw them live in Sydney a few years ago. They are great live! I was also playing Watch Dogs Legion the other day and heard one of Londoners listening to their songs.
It's amazing how music affects your brain all I say if music wasn't here I wouldn't be Either thank you to all the awesome musicians out there you bring joy to so many of our lives live fir the beat and rhythm
Music is like a close friend ❤️🎶
Love this song! When life drives me crazy, I just want to drive down a freeway with my windows rolled down blasting this song.
get the fine bros to get this on one of their react videos so more people can be aware of how sick this video is. I love foals so much but this video is crazy, blew my mind
Finebros better see this
+Ray Nelson Yeah this video (and song) really deserves more attention.
coolest music video I have ever seen
+Ray Nelson lololol
+Ray Nelson fine bros? more like fine hacks
this song just explodes at the end, so good
I sometimes just replay the last minute over and over
It's literally my favourite part
Usually, I listen to this song on medium volume, and at the end as the song like 'picks up momentum' I increase the volume by one everything the guitar (I think) hits a note🤣
Cool! You can move around in the video! (Look up in the sky, look at the ground, turn in different directions.....)....and to the tune of a jammin' song...sweet
Thanks for this music and lyrics Foals, it has got me through. Has given me a reassurance glimpse and empathy. Thanks.
I could listen to this song over and over for a month, and not get sick of it.
It's insane how much this song strikes a chord with me, I cry, I feel better, i have hope again. Stay strong out there everyone! "I will go before you and will level the mountains; I will break down gates of bronze and cut through bars of iron." - Isaiah 45:2

One of my all time favorites guys, lots of emotion
I had my phone pointed down for the first 30 seconds trying to figure out why everyone's mind was blown... yup amazing breathtaking I need more of this band and these videos in my life😘
On a laptop, you have to grab the screen and move it. I didn't realize it moved around on its own on a phone.
They are one of the BEST BANDS of ALL TIME IMHO!!!!
One of the most awesome songs ever!!!!!😍❤🔥👌
foals is so underrated. i came here from fifa years ago and i’ve loved them ever since
What a song. One of the bests FIFA I ever heard.
THESE GUYS ARE THE ONES THAT MADE THE FINALE SONG IN LIFE IS STRANGE I AM MIND BLOWN
This song makes me sob every damn time I hear it, both because it's just stunning but the lyrics hit so hard...
The nature looks amazing! thunder, wind, wow, all this energy !!
que nostalgia do fifa cara… eu amo essa música, amo a época quando tudo era mais simples e da minha infância. ô tempo bom
Da uma tristeza e ao mesmo tempo uma felicidade lembrar do passado, né?
Just lost our cat and this brings back lots of memories . Good vibes music.
Thats brilliant, not the fact that your cat died, that this song brings back memories of your cat...

I hope you get through the time :) I'm helping you

I love this song it's brilliant I'm going to listen to foals again they're doing really well this is awesome stay safe everyone.
I love just holding the left or right arrow down and watching everything spin around.

RIP
I'm so sorry bro
Sorry for your loss bro x
This song is just deadly! Love from America
Thank you so much Foals for making my life a better place to live in.
Had my phone sitting down as I listen and was confused by this music video as all I saw was birds flying around the sky. Didn't realize it was a 360 video lol

I just randomly stumbled upon this song - and band - cause youtube figured it fits my usual taste in music. It couldnt have been more right, Im so glad I didnt straight up skip the, at that point, unknown song for a familiar one, cause it slowly became one of my favourites
Holy Sh*T!!!!!!!!! I've been cycling with the foals 3 albums for years and never bothered to say "hey did they ever make more music" till today.....Where have i been!!!!!!
0:46 this guitar part is so smooth hnnnng

Found something I didn't know I was looking for.
I can feel the cool breeze and smell the air of this video.
I love that this is a VR video, I feel like it makes the words in the song more powerful.
This is by far the best foals song

I first heard this song in November 2015 on the radio and have been hooked on it since.
