Whenever music gets popular a while after being released it shows the artist was genuinely ahead of his time.

The violinists are incredible. They absolutely make the song what it is.

This song is pure genius...the hurt in his voice... the pitch change...the drop... the secondaries...beautiful beautiful beautiful

[IamAxeI]

Imagine this song, at the end of your fulfilling life, on a hospital bed, going through your memories about the places you visited and what you accomplished.
When the song hits "I am lost" You close your eyes and when you open them next time you are on a green field, on a sunny Day and you hear a "Hey", you turn around and there are all your loved ones, everyone that you ever cared for in your life from before.

[bentheboyo]

I’m a 40yr old man, and this song brings me to tears.

[mohamed]

To my 30 yo child in 2065, Your father loves you and he did everything that he could to provide you with the love that you deserve

LYRICS

I am lost in our rainbow
Now our rainbow has gone
Overcast by your shadow
As our worlds move on
In this shirt, I can be you
To be near you for a while
In this shirt, I can be you
To be near you for a while
There's a crane
Knocking down
All those things
That we were
I awake
In the night to hear the engines purr
There's a pain
It does ripple
Through my frame, makes me lame
There's a thorn in my side
It's the shame, it's the pride
Of you and me
Ever changing
Moving on now
Moving fast
And his touch
Must be wanted
Must become
Through your ask
But I need Jake to tell you
That I love you
It never rests
And I've bled every day now
For a year
For a year
I did send you a note
On the wind for to read
Our names there together
Must have fallen like a seed
To the depths of the soil
Buried deep in the ground
On the wind, I could hear you
Call my name, held the sounds
I am lost
I am lost, in our rainbow
Now our rainbow has gone
I am lost, in our rainbow
Now our rainbow has gone
I am lost
I am lost
I am lost
I am lost
I am lost

That male violinist loves this song more than life itself you can see it haunts him and also gives him immense joy in his eyes

[lonelychap]

Violin guy doesnt even vibe, he fucking radiates pure equilibrium - that shot was a masterpiece just like the song; pure art!

[jkol]

The fact that this is a live performance is so crazy… its hauntingly beautiful in the most incredible way possible

[vanessamanganaro]

This song is just a masterpiece. I can really feel every beat and word of this song. This is beyond the excellence and perfection.
It makes me feel alive and vulnerable everytime I listen to it. Same sensations... I call it art and magic.

[armoredbear]

genuinely unsettling when the live version is far superior to any recorded variant. well fucking done.

[paullappin]

I’m 75 years and this song is just so beautiful. ❤
