Airborne Toxic Event, The - All At Once Lyrics

I love this song so much, they’re so underrated

The kids dancing and bopping at the end is great! Just an amazing song and video!

Listening to this song, I got shivers up my spine.

Watching this almost a decade later and one of the most satisfying things is watching the snare drum mallets blur in the background. The memories that this song brings back are so great.

I listened to this song over and over again after my dad died. We had a strained relationship because of some things that happened when I was a kid. So, I didn't know he had been in the hospital for more than two months, let alone that a mistake by one of the nurses left him in a vegetative state. The night before he was to be removed from life support, my aunt called and told me I should come say goodbye. This song became a way for me to grieve, but more importantly, a way to move on. As cliche as it sounds, life really is too short to hold on to anger, and resentment. What I wouldn't give for just five more minutes with my dad, to tell him I forgive him, I love him, and I know deep down, he did the best he could.

The last song I want played at my funeral...

Totally agree. I listened to this song a lot after my dad died, it really did help. But, I told my family, if I'm hooked up to machines, and there's no hope of me coming back, play Radiohead's 'Reckoner'. On the off chance I might still be in there somewhere, I want that to be the last thing I hear.

Marianne Contrino Radiohead’s Reckoner is a favorite of theirs and maybe one of my top ten of all time. It would be a good song to listen to on the way out.

@A Lost One It's definitely my favorite song by anyone, ever. I think what I love about it most, is that it somehow simultaneously fills me with joy and hope, sadness and loss. Not to sound overly dramatic, but there's nothing better on a bright Summer day, than driving around blaring Reckoner. It makes me feel like I could float away, or sink like a stone, but no matter what, I'd be at peace. It just does something to me every time I hear it.

Marianne Contrino Thanks for sharing your feelings on this. (To which I totally agree!). It’s nice to read some good comments on YouTube for a change!

I GUESS ILL BE OK NOW JUST LOVE THESE GUYS

When I first started listening to this band, both my parents were still alive and I still got teary eyed. Now, both my parents are gone, and it takes on a whole new meaning. I did feel like I was punched in the gut and the face.

The Bombastic versions are FANTASTIC!!! Thank you ArborneTocicEvt!

Nice voice with well played instruments. Beautiful. Steven Chen makes me think of Glen with Walking Dead.

so underrated

Lori Michelle Allen:
I will love you until my lungs expel the last breath of air from my soul. You are, were and always shall be my one true love. I'd give 10 years of my life for 1 more minute in your arms. I miss you.

The brass that comes in a couple times always sounds real late, but the effect of that is pretty good. It adds about as much forlornness (or ridiculousness) as the lyrics call for. So I find myself wondering if it is on purpose.

Best song ever so underrated it's absolutely disgusting.

I can't believe it took me reading "Toxic History" to find this video. Awesome

Is it wrong that I love them so much more as an acoustic collaboration, then their electric mojo?

Can't stop listening. Someone help me! ;) Julie

So much better then on there album

One of my favourite songs

We were born without time
Nameless in the arms
Of a mother, a father, and God
When the world would wait for us
A thousand years in the crush
Of our eyes, fearless, and awed
So quietly, we'd fade into sleep
With nothing on our mind(s)
Hoo, hoo, hoo..
And then we longed to be loved
In the rush, we become
Some things we thought we'd never be
We were surprised by how hard
Left wary and scarred
From the nights spent feeling incomplete
And all those evenings swearing at the sky
Wishing for more time
All the promises we broke when we tried
Just wastin' all our time

Hoo, hoo..

We grow old all at once
And it comes like a punch
In the gut, in the back, in the face
When it seems someone's lied
And our parents have died
Then we hold onto each other in their place
And I feel the water risin' around us
Maybe that's okay
Yeah, I feel the world changin' all at once
I guess it'll be okay

Hoo, hoo, hoo..

And we all had one hope
There was someone lookin' down
To return our bodies to each other
And the ground

last thursday i saw them for the 9th time live. this song is my favorite by far, loved it back when it was there opening song and love it now when its their closing song

Saw them live. By far the best band

Insane.  That is all. 

охудительно!

One of my favorites from them! Amazing band.

I've never heard them - or about them - before now. Interesting!

@1337longhini They are coming to the rave February 15 2014 for FM102.1's cheap valentine date. Tickets are $10.21

I'm sure I've posted on this before, but I gotta say, thanks for the amazing music you guys! You have no idea how much you help sometimes!

this song gives me chills

i'm having the same problem right now.

Aging, death and dying....not a favorite topic amongst today's song winters. Nice song overall....

I NEED to see them live! I can't believe I wasn't able to go when they were at Summerfest in MIlwaukee this year. I hope they come back! :(

To the 10 people who disliked this song...IDIOTS!!!

Youtube ripping is justified in a case like that.

came across this on grooveshark... addicted instantly

I never can get over their lyrics. Absolutely incredible and so touching.

im addicted to the airborne toxic event... help

Sadly, none of their Bombastic versions are available for download.

Vous formez un groupe de musiciens formidables. Je vous apprécie beaucoup.

Vengan a México!!! la mejor banda que he escuchado en mucho.

10 personas estan pero si bien pendejas

Great Band. They use so many instruments and make music interesting again.

the Airborne Toxic Event brought me here..

"SUITS" brought me here

I would like to see ATE do an acoustic version of whoomp there it is. They make everything sound good.

Its been long sinced Ive heard a band thats has it all, music, lyrics, atittude. Its definetly airborne would live to see them be more widely known, their just that good

Excelente Canción!. =)

I think this may be my new favorite cut from them! Just damn good music!

TATE is by far my favorite group right now...wish they would release more "bombastic" versions for airplay...I think they might be better received by the mainstream audience these days. :)

no doubt their instrumental diversity is superb and anything but excellent. please, Lead Singer, sing in bariotone or lower. Your voice demands it.

I love TATE.

Live...in one take...epic.

Other "studio bands" sweat just thinking about it.

This song touches the very depths of my pitiful soul, TATE i love you.

TOPISSIMO.......*****+*

1080p. Nuff said.

1080p is a huge difference, be sure to put that on!

I found this song from the discovery channel

Bombtastic > Album

By a galactic margin, really.

So whose excited for Gold Rush Season 3!

Gold rush done brung me here

Muito muito bom. Já sou fã da banda.

those girls at 3:33 are bomb

His smile is addicting... <3

This song has become the sound track of my life right now. It makes me feel hope in every part of my body and it feels like what going to church should feel like. Like succeed or fail 'it'll be okay' there's love here for everyone.

One of the best live bands I have ever seen! Your listening to your proof.

Excellent band, so talented! Can't stop listing to them.

Excelente Canción!.

just busted out in tears this song is the story of my life wow never thought a song could fit the perfect words this band is amazing

kenia pinedo I hope that you find the man of your dreams and that he loves you with a passion so hot that it burns the world down around you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

they have been on the radio bc that is the only way i know who they r.

This song/video needs more views, seriously

*sigh* I want to marry him u.u lol

well....you actually watched it too didn't you?

My first kiss was to this. That was almost a year ago. I am still with that person. I love him. I love this. Thanks TATE.

@Smeddogger Oh mine 2! I'm glad it wasn't to crowded in WI. The small venue and minimal crowd made for a really personal experience. It was ridiculously amazing! u knew that the people who came to that concert were really big fans because u could hear them sing along 2 every song!

@MsJayniemae I think my friends and family are getting sick of me saying how amazing they are. I'm surprised that both shows I went to that it wasn't packed?!?! A LOT of people are missing out! I think it's my job to let them know :)

@Smeddogger I was totally at that concert in WI, it was amazing! i was in the front row and got to meet them all after. I still haven't stopped talking about it! I completely agree with you, no one, no band compares to their talent! I don't think i told them enough how amazing i think they are!

I keep buying song after song on I-Tunes. Bought 7 tickets for friends and family to see them at First Ave. in Mpls. Seeing them again this weekend outdoors in the snow in Dresser WI. I can't get enough of this band! Nothing compares to their talent and originality out there right now. Friday night they are the last of the bands to play...sometime around midnight!

Thank you HBO for introducing me to this song. How many of you found this after watching the HBO montage commercials?

This song is fantastic!

@RadioDeadSound Totally agree !!! Maybe we should just keep quiet about that fact so that it's still possible to see them up close n personal at their totally bad ass shows :)

I found this band randomly through a comment on a web site. Words cannot explain how much I LOVE this band in the short time I've listened! I haven't bought a CD in months, but went out and got theirs yesterday!

Wonderful

Thumbs up if you came here from the HBO 2012 promo.

goose bumps so passionate and heartfelt

There's something innately powerful about the video, some meaning that I've yet to grasp, yet it's all in front of me. Still gotta figure it out. Great song.

who cares about the number of views?

@DuffyJock Havent been paying attention huh?

Maybe theres hope for rock after all.

Great band

I lost my wife this year and Airborne Toxic Event helped me get through.....THANK YOU!

Mikel, I love you.

to put it frankly, this band can do no wrong

"Thanks to FIFI i found this song!" -Dumbass

i like the album version more. but this one's excellent too! :D

@LuLzezRoflcopter
Its like a weird conspiracy that's keeping people brainwashed by Brittney Spears.

0:00 - 5:06 thee best part
