Finding this music was like winning a lottery.

i almost didn’t listen to this song. it’s sad how many good songs we’ll never hear

"There are two possibilities. Either we are alone in the universe or not. Both are equally terrifying."
-Arthur Clarke, the author of
2001: A Space Odyssey

"fall back into place" hits my emotions so bad knowing that you can't go back in time to where your happiness was.

[bestsportsmoments]

"Hal, stop the song"

"I'm afraid I can't do that Dave"

[goldnugget]

I feel like this song doesn’t make you feel sad or happy but instead boosts the emotions you feel most.

I'm 66 years old. A young friend and co-worker shared a playlist with me, with this on it. It took me a few and then I realized that the footage is from 2001 A Space Odyssey, made long before digital special effects and maybe before a lot of you were born. It's just an interesting generation bridge. Genius. And the song is great. I love it!!

Whoever put this video together needs an award. It's amazing, my favourite film of all time, plus one of the most beautiful songs ever written.

I came for the memes, but now came out crying.

[lailiangchen]

This feels different with Pedro Pascal's ace acting of crying

[alicorngummy]

This is the kind of music that makes you feel your strongest emotion you're feeling, no in between.

[moonlightmando]

This film was WAY ahead of its time.

I’m gonna rewatch it soon.

[altheaxyrrie]

Shoutout to the camera man floating in space for filming this

[joshisaac]

This song makes me depressed but in an uplifting way? It’s so morose but in a way that’s almost comforting.

[Ownqbwbqnmq]

I don't know if this happens to anyone else, but... whenever I listen to this masterpiece at least one tear comes out of my eye but it's not sadness... it's something I can't describe! I have been listening at least once a day for years... and apart from having a masterpiece by Stanley Kubrick... it's incredible!

[mariegay]

This song will transcend time... what a gem. So fitting for Space Odyssey

[Dannyzelck]

If this song isn’t played at my funeral, I’m not going.

[nateromero]

Not many songs can reach this level of perfection

[nobodyepicz]

i was stunned from the first moment i heard it. its like falling in love with someone the first time you see them, and then the sadness comes from not being able to be together. that how this song feels to me. this damn song, i cant stop loving it.

[eldonpreston]

2001 is my #1 all time favorite movie - especially when you consider it's time. I love how this song elevates the imagery.
