[Stefanie]

This never gets old. Still listening in 2024. 💚

[mollyerickson]

They aren't playing the music. They ARE the music. Pure joy. This inspires me to revisit my life to ask where I lost my own joy along the way, and what I can do to find it again.

[lucievovk]

i come back every few months and watch this to like. remind myself what feeling alive is like

[may]

So this is is what *passion* sounds like

[CheesyNachoTV]

That shot at 1:16, it's like they're in another universe full of passion

[elphara]

It's the best dopamine shot ever, thank you.

[ApiHemi]

chills. You can see the emotion, passion and life emanating from their souls. This is why I love music.

[rudranurag]

[c.jhminga]

Their hair is one of their most important instrument 🙊😸

[SatyakiSanyals]

They're not just playing. They're feeling it ❤

Found a joint. Found this piece . Found peace too❤

[TamaraMaraMoo]

The hair is also the instrument!! Just wow. I listen to this every so often when I feel stuck. Lifts me immediately

[meriamsaoudi]

The literal definition of unadulterated passion.

[tamaraelvira]

I don't understand how people are sitting so calmly, everything in body tells me to move to the beat!! I would love to have been there

[snehalbhandari]

I have been listening to this everyday from past 3 months. Yet somehow the feelings I had when I heard this first time remains the same. This music, the beats, everything seems alive, powerful and beautiful. Their movements, their passion is just chef's kiss. And listening to this while the world sleeps just makes it better!

[arjya]

Mad props to the camera person and the editing team for capturing and putting together this incredible sequence..

It's holy!
