I miss my life.

It’s crazy how a 6 minute song doesn’t sound repetitive for it basically repeating the whole time lol

Everybody has crazy memories of listening to Crystal Castles. I just listened to them as I fell asleep.

When you listen to Crystal castles does anyone else get nostalgic or something you never experienced before? kind of like a sense of deja vu?

I don’t know why, but I think that it’s the best song for people who don’t want to get older. I’m 31 now, I think that i’m not suitable for maturity. I wish i were 24 forever. So nostalgic song

This song makes me depressed and happy at the same time

CC had such an impact on me that once I ditched my own family on New Years to go see them live in Webster Hall. Do not regret that evening to this day.

When I was 13 in 2009 my history teacher wrote the url on the board for untrust us on KZfaq. Only me and my friend gave it a listen outside of the teacher playing crystal castles in the background of class. Had this MP4 in 2009 & it takes me back

I think this album is a potent throwback for anyone who is old enough to at least have been a teenager when it came out. I remember listening to this album, _In Rainbows_ by Radiohead, and lots of Deerhoof, and Little Dragon. I'm not proud of it but I was also doing a lot of drugs at the time. It was like 2008/2009, I was like 19, living in this apartment building and I had a next-door neighbor who was like 5 years older than me but we became really close friends. He was kind of a shallow rich kid but he was super intelligent and we got along. It was honestly a great period of time in my life. Hardly any responsibility (except for my job) and-even though I was partying way too hard-I have crystal clear memories of all the late nights spent with friends in that apartment, drinking, snorting line after line of coke, chain-smoking cigarettes, and having "super deep and important" conversations (we probably sounded like complete idiots. Anyway, that friend/former neighbor ended up killing himself in 2013. This album always reminds me of him and that period in my life.

This song is so comforting it feels like a hug

i'll never forget the time my friends consoled me with this song playing after my old longtime friend group dissolved. Jordan, if you ever see this I never had the balls to directly talk to you about how much I appreciated the time you and Hunter spent cheering me up. Wish we could spend time like we could in 2019 and things were much simpler. Eric

I never tried drugs I never hanged out with people This song is about peace and solitude for me Really interesting how different our experiencies are

the best looped song ever

I struggle to listen to crystal castles because i listened to them a LOT in 2018 when i was going through severe depression. But i find myself back here trying to numb the pain with music rather than substances

It trips me out. It makes me feel alive again.

"Don't worry dear Pamela, I'll do my scientific best, to command your fleet"

This song is like a bunch of cute, twinkling lights in my grim, dull life. Love it.

i don’t know how to describe how this song makes me feel. the best way i can put it into words is feeling like, you weren’t embraced and banished from normal society. and you feel isolated but happy you’re alone? idk its just weird.

i lost over 150 pounds walking and running. This was always my intro song when id put the headphone and grab my ipod, Id say lets go for a run to charlie my golden retirever and wed get to work. Ive cried, ive been angry, ive lost it, and lastly left it all on those city streets I ran in. I was 22 now im 36 and it almost feels all the same without charlie now and my new identity. I have a beautiful gf and two amazing dogs. Thank you CC

Crystal Castles will always be a part of my life in some ways, I cant describe how their music made me feel like through the years.

"Don't worry dear Pamela I'll do my scientific best, to command your fleet" also I think the main rythym of the song is Alice saying "Ooooh" on loop at different pitches

"Life is like a dream, you wake up just to realize it's all gone." -Fernando Perez

I've always had a few Crystal Castles songs on playlists but I heard this one for the 1st time yesterday while driving. I literally started tearing up. This is one the most beautiful songs I've ever heard! It literally takes me to another place. Like it makes me reminisce on the past, and gives this feeling of comfort that "everything will be ok". I know this band is usually what people listen to during times of sadness or while doing drugs (based on what I've read in many comments). But for me I just listen to their music because it takes you to another universe when you close your eyes and listen to it. And any artist that can successfully do that, is a great one in my book. Another artist that does that for me is Flume. Anyways! I'd also like to note that I can definitely hear Daft Punk influences in this track. Where they keep the beat consistent throughout and just add/subtract layers throughout in a beautiful way. It's unfortunate that there was so many awful truths that came out later on about this duo. But the music is still incredible.

I can't even - right now man... the feelings/memories I get from this track . Indescribable . I used to sleep to this in hs

I miss my planet. Wherever that is....

when you are empty, this song feels completely different

Just discovered this today and I'm in love

2020 and still triping with this beauty

This song feels like running towards something, trying to achieve or prove something to yourself, and that hope is fading with every fucking failed attempt. So, out of emptiness and pure loneliness you decide to self sabotage yourself. You decide to crush your values, hoping for one last time that you will achueve what you long. Of course you dont, and you remain traumatised. This song feels to me like the whole cycle to me: the running, the dispair, the realisation, the dissapointemnt, the crusing, and ultimately, the emptiness

Probably my first Crystal Castles song ever. Saw them perform live in NYC! Alice forever ♥️

I heard this song when I was like 12. I'm 26 now... This song brings so much memories. Glad to be alive still

Man Crystal Castles has helped me out so much throughout my life.

I was in 7th grade listening to this. Small town called rogersville. Sickest adventures in the small town were conducted by my pals n I . Now I’m in California...

Siendo una canción que en su mayoría involucra solo el sonido y nada de voz, realmente te da espacio a desaparecer en tus propios pensamientos. Es lo que la hace muy buena. 🤍

Just discovered this song today. But it does take me back to this time when I was high during college. I don't know what I was thinking going to class like that. Then I went to the yard and sat by a tree to gaze at the clouds. Next thing I know, it's night already. The last thing I remember is that the stairs seemed endless to me, I climbed them up for quite a while despite them being obviously the same everyday stairs. Time felt many times slower. It's irrelevant but I appreciate living that experience.

Listening on a rainy day, perfect

i like that melancholy vibe

I like to picture a wizard skateboarding on a boardwalk against a sunset when listening to this song.

Thank you Crystal Castles for this magic spell!!!

How did my life go back so far? How did everything change so much?

These notes speak so many things. The highs and the lows. ❤

La escuchaba siempre que iba a trabajar en el metro de la Ciudad de México Que tiempos...

i want to listen to this song for the first time again

This is honestly so beautiful. Amazing. Crystal castles forever

So good to listen to on 🍄

This song is still ahead of the times

everytime i listen to this song the emptiness inside of me gets so overwhelming

i missed this music. i would always listen to it last year as i would paint in art. nostalgiaaaa.

The way this band presented itself when they first came out was unique I don’t think hearing anything like it. Now thinking back there was a lot of great bands coming out during those early 00s mgmt was one that i can’t forget hearing them just really good talent. Total nostalgia once again a time when I was partying and feeling good all the time. 😢

one of the best songs ever made

Pura nostalgia, me acuerdo cuando recien empezaba en el mundo de las drogas (no lo digo con orgullo solo como anecdocta igual nunca me perdi hasta el momento) e iba a fiestas con afters de extremo a extremo pero lo que mas recuerdo eran esos 420 mañaneros que me pegaba, siempre me ha encantado la madrugada y con un porro es lo maximo. Buenos tiempos CC

This song never get's old

it's been almost 10 years since I've heard this song. best feelings and trips listening to CC. the memories this brings!

i miss her.

bro i love this song🎉🎉😮

For years I've had this thing I do where I'll be going through the days and I'll notice that I'm getting a little too low and that a good cry will help me start to feel better (I don't cry easily obviously). So anyway, I'll grab my best headphones, go to a quiet dark room where I'm alone, listen to Magic Spells and it absolutely gets me going every time. It's so sacred to me. I hate that something with such an ugly underbelly has that effect on me. That it brings me to such a comfortable and intimate place that I can finally lower my guard 🖤

i miss my mom, this song makes me cry.

This song is making me happy and sad at the same time...

I love this song.

La vida se siente diferente cuando escuchas esto.. :3

Dark beat, love it. Endless loop of past thoughts or being stuck in regrets, mourn, toil. Eerie/ suspenseful in a sense, it captives my brain. Old memories will continue to fade

No os pasa que cuando escucháis crystal castles os da nostalgia de algún recuerdo

this will forever be my favorite song, the sounds, the beat, the music. Everything about this song is perfect

one of my favorite tracks for sure

it always makes me think of those peacefull summer times in nature and reading my fav book Porwanie w Tiutiurlistanie, I used to listen to this on a loop while reading it and it was an awesome experience

My kid will never know the crazy shit I did while listening to Crystal Castles. Edit: My son is much older now. After much contemplation, I've decided that it'd be best if he was educated on the effects of drugs. When he's old enough he will know all the crazy shit I've done.

this song is special

its crazy how the main line produces these wierd phantom notes in your head, notes you know are never coming but you expect them anyway.

I’ll always come back to this song . Always ! It’s ESSENTIAL

Used to play CC on my college radio years ago, so nostalgic, wish I remembered the full playlists I made.

this song will always remind me of getting stoned at 12am and eating jolly ranchers and that specific flavour of monster i forgot about, the smell of incense sticks to hide the smell of bud, with an old lover while listening to this song and watching him play gmod. if you know me irl, which you definitely don’t, its pretty obvious who I’m referring to. so uhh, if you’re seeing this, hey. it was fun while it lasted, you taught me some very important things. and i wont forget you for that, and im sorry for how i was too. thank you so much for the memories, and also getting me into crystal castles, most importantly though limp bizkit haha.

escuchar por primera vez cc fue la sensación mas bonita del mundo :´) ya pasaron 4 años y sigue pareciendo como la primera vez

crystal castles played a big part in my childhood

“don’t worry, dear pamela, i’ll do my scientific best to command your fleet”

i was listening to music on spotify and then this one started playing randomly ...less i knew my life was about to change, what a GREAT SONG

This song makes me nostalgic for a place that isn't real

chills

I’d listen to this 15 years ago knowing I was living the days I’d miss the most 15+ years into the future …

5 years later and this is still lit

Has to be my favorite song of all time. I've been listening since my teen years. Love you CC

song is next level. always makes me feel sad but in a good way.

Lo descubrí hace 6 meses atrás .Y desde entonces se volvió mi adición para mis oídos , y mi sentido de unir es muy diferente.

This song picks me up when I am down. Its my goto song. Gets me pumped.

Not promoting drugs but at the peak of my addiction this song vibes beyond reality!!!!!!! CC

I drank 4 bottles of dxm and when this song came on I was convinced a witch possessed me and she flew me through dimensions where I could see every moment of my life on these TV screens and then as I was coming down I couldn't remember the name of the drug I took despite me knowing it had all the same letters as the rapper dmx. Crazy shit

Happy new year to all of you who are cool enough to be listening to this.

Просто закрываешь глаза, слушаешь эту песню, уходят все переживания и волнения, а ты продолжаешь свой полет мимо Юпитера к Сатурну, и далее в бескрайние глубины вселенной...

Late night drive home from the club. A city mostly asleep. I’ll never forget the peace

Insane song. Remember listening to this back in 2012? Just not even knowing those were the best times

Forever here

Every time when I hear this song it just gives me this traumatising flashback I had

I used to listen to this when I felt sad and empty, here we go again

Nice job! I miss my old world I grew up in....the 1980's. thank you so much for the reminder!!! It was a vibe!

Crystal castles will always remind me of a simpler time, ditching high school, staying over at friends, smoking weed under the stars with good people, taking extacy my 1st time w my ex. Crystal castles makes me remember my life

It sounds like a moment you’ll never get back

so nostalgic. reminds me of cruising with my homie and smoking some dank bud...high as hell driving through my hometown. fuck I miss that... ..

this song reminds me of art class in high school. popping addies and just fucking painting up a storm. made some of my best work back then, I wish I still had the drive and creativity.

Walking through Olympic national forest high as a kite looking at the wildlife to this song is just 👌👌

Such special music.

2008 was a good year
