The guy in black is amazing!

Dear Gojira, Thank you. -The Fans

The drummer’s ghost notes through the song are amazing

I feel like people don't realise how talented a singer Joe is. It's crazy what he pulls off here. It's like he has several effects he can switch on and off in his voice, screaming with heavy distorsion and still maintaining notes (and producing overtones I guess?). Very impressive.

this studio must be like -40 degrees. mario has a shirt

So many ghost notes this snare drum is haunted haha

"I hold my inner child within And tell him not to cry: "Don't fear the living" One day you will stand as a king And no fear can erase this light below us Each one of us is now engaged This secret we all have, this truth is growing And as a warrior, I have to fight I can already feel the love I'll discover" absolutely beautiful.

I want a girl that looks at me the way the band looks at the drummer.

The drums. My god the drums.

I like to imagine they wrote the intro to this song on a day when they all forgot their guitar picks.

This is by far the best song to end a album. I think if you listn to From Mars to Sirius from start to end, its kind of a journey, a experience you have to make.

"We will see our children growing." This is so powerful.

I feel like the bass in this song is really underappreciated. it really gives the whole last part of the song a deep and heavy vibe

In my dream world, Gojira would release a live studio version of a song each month....

The fact that this song was written in 2004, and it is getting even more relevant every year is truly impressing. Joe's text are amazing, the best band of their generation without a doubt.

There's such a childlike innocence to those harsh vocals that is a desperate plea from all the good things in this world to preserve and protect itself as it has everyone and everything's best interests at heart.

Mario, your speed and precision is unmatched. Truly one of the greatest drummers of all time.

400,000 years ago, Mario and Joe came to this planet from outer space.

Best part of this is at the very end, when Joseph is still tapping and the rest of the band is kind of in awe of what they all just accomplished. You can tell that a lot of emotion was put into this recording.

The bass line at 4:38 is so smooth how it leads into the end of the song. This song is so nice in its "simplicity", I've really learned to appreciate it.

*begins throwing ice cubes at the globe*

I'm 26 and now that I have a son, the lyrical content of this song hits so much deeper than I could even explain. I come to this when I need to feel like the world is bigger than my problems and perspective for how I'll raise my son in today's world. I love you Gojira 🤘

It's incredible how good they photoshopped a shirt on mario, it looks like he is actually wearing one

4:38 I love the bass at this part, it's kinda like it's singing "we will see our children growing" before Joe does.

Joe's voice is unbelievable. So strong !

This ghost notes may be haunting the studio till this day!

does this song make anyone else kinda emotional? not exactly sure why, i guess the lyrics are part of it but the other part is the first time I heard this song was the day my granddad died. the "we will see our children growing" part is beautiful too

Lyrics: Four hundred thousand years ago They came from outer space And gave us life here We are taking everything for granted I don't think we should do this now And when I see the smoke all around I feel like I'm now From humankind down there I feel like glaciers are my eyes And mountains are my head My heart is ocean And I feel all alone Because everybody's wrong I feel the living What is this thing that we call hate And that's inside of me Get out of here! A world is down And none can rebuild it Disabled lands are evolving My eyes are shut, a vision is dying My head explodes And I fall in disgrace I hold my inner child within And tell him not to cry "don't fear the living" One day you will stand as a king And now fear can erase This light below us Each one of us is now engaged This secret we all have This truth is growing And as a warrior I have to fight I can already feel The love I'll discover I had this dream, our planet surviving The guiding stars always growing And all the worlds The fates all the countries They're all rebuilding at the same time I never fell and always believed in We could evolve and get older Open your eyes and let all this flow Now see a now hope is growing inside We will see our children growing Enjoy :)

Jamming along this feels like you're with them. Can't describe the feeling, but its the same every time

Everyone: Have you heard the new TOOL Me: Have you heard the old Gojira.

We don't deserve Gojira.

This song brings me tears every time I hear it... Is it just me?

3:24 Mario is so fucking good he can hit a crash cymbal with his mind.

This is incredible. Joe's voice is on point, it is evolving, he is now a master of clean singing, it is powerful and emotional. His growl voice has changed since Magma, and I am diggin' it so hard. Incredible performance, shivers down my spine.

We need more sessions like this !

Man I love Gojira but kudos to the sound engineer on this recording, it’s got to be one of the most well produced and mixed live recordings I’ve ever heard

Jean Michel holding down the groove like no other. Honestly one of the best bassists in metal. So much energy during shows too.

Vocalist is so full of emotions. He can barely stand in one place. Love this performance.

I wish they had this version on Spotify. It's absolutely incredible.

The way the voice harmonizes with the bass on the last 3 minutes is so beautiful, it's something you don't see everyday

Spiritual/environmental activists as well as incredibly talented musicians that play with passion. What's not to love?

Omfg Joe's vocals reached a new point of epicness

Joe, Christian, Jean-Michael arrives at the studio Joe & Christian: Ah shit, we forgot to bring picks. Jean-Michael, do you got any? Jean-Michael: No, i only use one pick. Joe & Christian: Well crap...hey Mario you´re here early, what have you been doing all morning? Mario: Practicing ghost notes. Light Bulb goes off

This is one of the *SICKEST* drum beats I've ever heard and I have been playing drums for 42 years

People who think metal is sound..... I just don't care for what they are missing out on anymore,this is the most beautiful song I've ever heard

My life is divided into two parts: 1. Before I heard Gojira 2. After I heard Gojira

mario is a cosmic robot from the past

I can't listen to the studio version anymore

Mario Duplantier , Gavin Harrison, and Danny Carey behind the drums never cease to blow my mind every time..

What are those vocals!? holy shit i cant even...AMAZING

"We never play this live as it is challenging" /proceeds to rip off a flawless performance. You guys make it look easy. So Awesome

Everytime I listen to the album version I realize this version is how this song was meant to sound.

One of the most emotional songs ever written

the ending part is so emotional, right in the feels

2:09 The heaviest drummer of the Universe xD This energy in the playing is very impressive.

My heart overflows with happiness for existing at the same time as this band, thank you Gojira

To the band members of GOJIRA.. when I learned of you was soon after the death of my father.. Vacuity was the first song I heard after his passing on Pandora of all applications. After the first listen through I was hooked. I immediately opened UKposts and played it again about a million times. I’ve already been given a lack of information throughout my lifetime that blinded me. Thank you so much for opening my 3rd eye and saving my life. Since then I’ve bought most of your music and plan to have everything you guys make. You guys are amazing. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 THIS IS EXACTLY What the world needs right now. Sometimes another voice to think for someone else to learn from so others can take action rather than feel like they should speak up; the time for action is now. No one can tell me how 🥰 I’ve made it SO far.. nobody understands how and I don’t expect them to but everyone has their own meaning in life; mission, goal, the end result is what matters most and you’ll never understand until you allow that river to flow. I apologize for the series of puns but to everyone their own understanding of the flip side of life. I love you all. If you guys read this.. a name you should use for a future song is “nyarlethotep” or “god of 1000 faces”

My hat's off to the bassist. It takes a high level of taste and restraint to play only simple things firmly, in the midst of virtuosi running incredible techniques; without trying to "compensate upward" to run with them. Rick Laird, from Mahavishnu Orchestra, was great at this; his patience and focus were truly profound. This gentleman here is very close to Laird's level. Well done.

Mario can drum such fast, heavy, hard hitting, complex patterns but what separates him from the rest is how fucking fluidly he puts it all together. Its poetry in motion. He just floats across the kit, its like the drum set is an extension of his body. Everything just sounds so natural and human. Everything from his ride technique to his kick technique...I could fanboy on Mario for hours

I still remember hearing this for the first time. I was with my two best friends and they played this randomly and right then I felt like my life was changed forever.

I keep coming back to this video all over again. I can't do anything else than respect and admire the skill of this whole band. Especially Mario and Joe, I just love how you can see the way they feel the music. Just amazing.

Joe is amazing. He has the most emotional voice I've ever heard in metal music. He gives me goosebumps!

This is my neighbors favorite song... Whether he likes it or not.

It's been said, but this band is the best metal band on the planet and have been for longer than I've known they exist. Existentially vital listening.

Even over 4 years later this still brings me close to tears. Beautiful song.

Best metal band in history. Most innovative band. Musicianship. Heavy. Influential. I just can't explain how I feel when I listen to Gojira...and then you have videos like this. I'm just so grateful I can enjoy them. Thank you, Gojira.

Studio version = Chills down my spine and goosebumps up and down my arm Live version = all of the above plus the tears that ran down my face. Gojira truly are such an amazing and powerful group.

I love how Joe and Christian communicate with Mario's drummimg by looking at him and how they vibe to the song, at 3:40 that's true passion there

I don't know to describe this. But when the song starts playing, that riff. I don't know, it's like the conflict and peace inside me are both increasing and also getting calmed. I feel like my body is somehow breaking to the essence of myself. And in the end I can feel the pain, the primal pain and emotional pain in my brain and guts and in the end is like I find a bit of peace, but it's not complete. I'm writting this with tears in my eyes... The only and last thing I can say is that even though that I will never meet them and the most probably thing is that they will never read this but I don't care bacause I'm feeling like I am cleaning my mind, all I can say is thank you Gojira, thank you for making such great music and for giving me strength when I felt alone and in my weak moments. Thank you.

This song makes me want to cry. They look so passionate in this recording😢

The endurance that drummer has is insane

Most people are commenting metal is dead. No. This music just got not as much as exposure like pop music. Thank you Gojira.

I have been interested in climate change, global warming, and environmental issues (pollution, biodiversity...), since the end of the 90s. At that time, nobody among my relatives (family, friends) felt concerned by this. They considered me as an anxious teenager. When I discovered this band in 2005 (From Mars to Sirius album), I was totally amazed that a metal band (a French one, and a very talented one, moreover!) could write a song about global warming at the time. Almost 20 years later, I am a father of 2 children, and the lyrics of this song seem even more meaningful to me. I discovered then that many of Gojira songs talk about environment, future of our planet and humankind. Gojira is not only one of the best metal bands right now, but they were also pathfinders 20 years ago. PS : Please forgive my bad English, I am French, and my level in English is much weaker than Joe Duplantier ;)

They did only one pick scrape and mario had a shirt on...is this really Gojira?

This is one of the SICKEST bands I've ever heard in my lifetime, and I'm 54yo! Their drummer is INTENSE! I love him!!! \m/

Mario is an actual metronome. Absolutely love it!

My favorite band

His voice is is so explosive. My favorite in all metal for sure. He's one of the few singers who can actually nail growling and singing actual melodies at once.

Never heard the song until now and I'm blown away. Dude is crazy talented pulling off that lick the whole song while singing better than most other frontmen could dream of. Everyone was super in-sync too. I think it might be time for me to go through Gojira's discography.

Sometimes I get way too high and stumble across this video again, and every time I do, I hear the guitar riff differently. This is one of those times.

I cannot believe I found this song out this year in 2020 and its been around since 2004 - absolutely crook at myself. Better late than never as they say.

Live versions of Gojira's songs are always the best. They feel so natural. I hope they record and release Maciste all'Inferno again one day

People are talking about what bands will headline future festivals (in 10-20 years) when all older bands have quit. Gojira will.

If the drummer is the chillest one then you khow the band is lit🔥🔥

That exhale of Jean-Michel at the end, feels so pure - a feeling of 'we freaking did it..' again.

I remember the first time I heard this tears came out like nothing else.. Thank you Joe, Mario, Christian and Jean-Michel Labadie! I love you UPDATE: I wrote this comment before I started the video, and now when I finished watching it I can safely say, I teared once again.. Its so emotional to me, especially the outro of this song I thought about what Joe and Mario went through with the death of their mother, and put that thought together with the final lyrics- we will see our children growing.. I love you gojira. Thank you

30 fps is not enough to understand how mario plays

I've rewatched this so many times, and every time it gives me goosebumps and makes me tear up a bit. Just incredible. Gojira forever

Mario always has this look in his eyes, like he's doing god's work almost against his will, so intense an unbiased

This track gets more relevant by the day, terrifying

...didn't know they allowed porn on UKposts. 🤘🏼Merci Gojira.

Who the F**K came here to listen this master piece and leave a dislike? WTF

Their lyrics are better than many bands with English as their first language. No small feat. 🎸🤘

This song is the perfect conclusion for the perfect album. Thanks for this gift, this performance made me cry

How can somebody hate Gojira? They are undoubtedly the best music act today! Keep rocking my dudes! \m/

their power and passion is remarkable, I felt every note, every word. “We will see our children growing” makes me cry like a little child but still feel hope! Thank you so much for this song, thank you so much for sharing your passion guys. You help me and I bet a lot of other people listening through tough times.

Para los que decían que los franceses no hacen buen rock, ahí tienen Gojira.

Omg the emotion he puts in the vocals, it gave me chills, i love Gojira
