Deadmau5 - The Veldt (8 Minute Edit) Lyrics






Happy life, with the machines
Scattered around the room
Look what they made, they made it for me
Happy technology

Outside, the lions run
Feeding on remains
We'll never leave, look at us now
So in love with the way we are

Here
The world that the children made [x2]
Here
The world that the children made
Here
The world that the children made

Every night, they rock us to sleep
Digital family
Is it real, or is it a dream?
Can you believe in machines?

Outside, the beating sun
Can you hear the screams?
We'll never leave, look at us now
So in love with the way we are

Here
The world that the children made [x2]
Here
The world that the children made
Here
The world that the children made

Here
The world that the children made
[x2]

Happy life, with the machines
Scattered around the room
Look what they made, they made it for me
Happy technology

Outside, the lions run
Feeding on remains
We'll never leave, look at us now
So in love with the way we are

Here
The world that the children made [x2]
Here
The world that the children made
Here
The world that the children made

Here
The world that the children made
Here
The world that the children made (made...)

    cada vez que escucho esta cancion me hace recordar a mi gato Vikingo amaba este gato, fallecio poco despues de esta cancion. cada vez que la escucho cierro mis ojos y recuerdo los mejores momentos que comparti con el, solo espero que esta cancion te llene de sentimientos como a mi ahora escribiendo esto con mis ojos aguados.saludos.

  4. O.... ....

    Ass Clap

  15. S.... R....

    Best track ever

  16. K.... G....

    This song take me to a whole new side of life

  17. R.... ....

    Ok but needs more stutter on the vocals

  18. Z.... A....

    I just realized what the art meant...
    behind each deadmau5 there is a cat who will try to break the deadmau5. the cat is representative of Disney and how they tried to break deadmau5 's character, but he still lives.

  19. S.... S....

    Kind of song that I used to listen in 5 am..still listening until now

  20. H.... R....

    A long time ago

  21. G.... L....

    in 2018

  22. x.... ....

    Has anyone actually read the short story by Ray Bradbury (Keeps the same name) that this song is based on? It will completely change the meaning of this song. My Father told me about it after I showed him the song. Just.... go read it

  23. D.... K....

    We opened our first hospital. Protecting children is the best.

  24. D.... ....

    2018 and this song is still a must

  25. T.... C....

    This is one of my favorites tracks ever. My friend Wil pass away a month ago and this was the first song that i listen and he shaw to me and that day i meet deadmau5. Thanks Bro!! See u.

  26. l.... ....

    That moment joel heard this for the first time was amazing!

  27. M.... S....

    Beautiful track! You can download a FL Studio remake of this track here : https://xlearning.ir/deadmau5-the-veldt-download-flp-fl-project/

  28. n.... m....

    I used to play ths song 5 yrs bck whn I ws a student at UKZN BT I still lyk it more thn ever...beautifull song

  29. C.... Z....

    The world that the children made... AWESOME!

  30. V.... M....

    Julio te amo!!!

  31. F.... F....

    Looks like kozoro - spring without you , 2017 anyone?

  32. N.... A....

    Sentarse bajo las estrellas con una birra y escuchar este tema de fondo. Sería perfecto.

  33. T.... ....

    While I do like the song, when you learn about the source material of a couple of VR junkies killing their parents when they try to take away their electronic heroin, it does kind of dull the sheen of this bright and happy sounding track

    T.... ....

    That doesn't take away from the brilliance of the song, though. There's a beauty in how Deadmau5 captured the essence of Bradbury's "The Veldt" and put it into a song.

  34. D.... S....

    Was this song named after veld music festival lol

  35. j.... r....

    AHHHH...T G I F

  36. T.... ....

    I love this and saw how this all came to be on the live stream.

    Before you comment negatively, read the story behind this. Read the lyrics to this song. Then you'll have a legitimate comment, otherwise don't bother. You will only show your stupidity to the world.
    This is the world that the children made. My generation developing the Internet, coding and the hardware that puts it all together.
    The children grew up to improve this technology making it faster, more efficient and portable. We're all connected now. It the world that the children made!

    My issue is our governments exploiting, abusing and controlling the masses with the world that the children made. Digitally technology. Our digitally family.

    We need to stand up against the greed and control governments impose on us. Using the world that the children made to take our freedoms away for their own personal gain!

    There will come a day when those people will be fed to the lions and we'll gain trust again. A big happy digital family. The world that the children made.

  37. J.... ....

    I love the cat face

  38. A.... G....

    Capolavoro

  39. J.... B....

    Starting at 5:10 holy shit that beat is CRAZYY...try driving late night on a country side with that on.. take you to another place

  40. v.... n....

    remember playing minecraft to this in 2012.. good times

  41. Z.... A....

    I can literally imagine deadmau5 making these sounds while he inhales the cigarette smoke.

  42. N.... P....

    beautiful song that I've ever heard......

  43. D.... M....

    If you'll still be listening to this song in 2020....you my friend value quality music.

  44. D.... _....

    The transition @ 4:38 always gives me the chills. I love this song in such an indescribable way

  45. f.... ....

    when I hear this music,I feel in another world its amazing

  46. R.... K....

    I do dream of the short story being turned into a movie and when it ends this starts slowly and everyone cries in nostalgia. Thank you Deadmau5.

  47. t.... ....

    I actually play comp on Overwatch with Chris. Small world.

  48. A.... K....

    I finally found you thank you. you are simply amazing. keep it up.
    love from Pakistan😘😍

  49. G.... S....

    Joel you are forever the king!

  50. V.... R....

    2017... I'm still here

  51. R.... K....

    This song is the definition of progressive house music.

  52. S.... ....

    Before I read the story the song sounded uplifting and positive. After reading the story the song became dark and ominous to me.

  53. L.... G....

    extremely relaxing music. it helps me focus

  54. N.... ....

    Till 2012 i can't stop listen it

  55. �.... 1....

    I LOVE YOU MUSIC - MEMORY <3

  56. j.... r....

    I was SUPER PISSED OFF...but now...<3 <3 <3

  57. M.... ....

    This has some of the vibes like fallout 3. going out from the vault after 30 years. except that the world is beautiful and you see it for the first time after being told it is hell outside the vault.

  58. S.... ....

    Used tot play this song while on my Route 66 trip in the US last year all by myself. Whenever I missed home i just grabbed my phone to search my Spotify list! It's an amazing song...brings back lots of memories.

    S.... ....

    This melody is legit the most Nostalgic and Good Memories enducing melody on the planet Earth.

  59. p.... ....

    When I usually travel... this song was in the planes entertainment system... so the whole flight I just listen to this awesome song while looking through the window...thinking about my friends. <3

    p.... ....

    There Might Be Coffee is a great travel song, too, isn't it? Deadmau5 is just so good at making relaxed music that eases the mind of whoever listens.

  60. O.... ....

    These kinds of songs you can listen to for hours upon hours and not get bored of.

  61. K.... T....

    This song gives me goosebumps each time I listen to it.. it's so good! ❤🎧

    j.... r....

    sad or happy..this song fits everywer

    j.... r....

    but then you read the short story this song is based on and listen to the lyrics and realise that it is very sinister

  69. o.... ....

    U know deadmau5 isn't just Dead, Hes DEAD annD ALIVE. Here's a thought.... If you belief (this is the RIGHT CONTEXT) death is a place you don't come back from.... That's how it will look. And the answer you really want.... We are INATE..... I'm Mortal =+= IMMORTAL> >> >>> With Bliss. And a secret MagickaL bag of Tricks!!! XO (there are ("exes" and "OH"s) you might not have seen. And from nothing... Pull left and right. Nothing = Positive and Negative...... BOOOOOOOOMMmm...... :)

    C.... ....

    Christian Timmerman me too 😁

  77. D.... N....

    JAMAIS ESQUECEREI ESSA MUSICA ❤ DEADMAU5 ❤🇧🇷

  78. S.... M....

    😎😎

  79. D.... ....

    love this song <3

  80. C.... R....

    The music, chill, and the story, macabre, it's the weird juxtaposition, in German it's called "unheimlich" which kinda means uncanny....not in the right place....that's what makes it me for me with this song. It reminds me of Exorcist 3....where the old people are possessed by a devil and are able to move extremely quickly, have super human strength, and can crawl on the ceiling. That shit is KAreepy! Because we don't usually associate those abilities with the elderly...not unless they're on datura that is.

    C.... R....

    I like the way you think xD

    C.... R....

    The story is indeed macabre, but you might see this song as narrated by the children. They are in love with the Veldt, want to stay forever, and don't care at what cost - essentially, "so in love with the way (they) are". The story is not dark from their perspective.

  81. J.... C....

    I'm sure this has been mentioned or the questioned asked, but is this inspired by Bradbury's short story "The Veldt" ?

    J.... C....

    It sure is my friend. If you watch the other video with the animation of the kids you'll see. It's shorter but yeah it's based off it.

  82. R.... T....

    2016 and still amazing, love you joel

    R.... T....

    Raul Torres 2018 and still amazing ;)

  83. R.... C....

    This is one of the best tracks made

    R.... C....

    Agreed but gotta say Fed Ex is more entertaining to work for UPS Guy xD

    R.... C....

    @Lephy Odonally hey dude, fuck Fed Ex

    R.... C....

    +UPS Guy for why.

    R.... C....

    Cause UPS and FedEx like to fuck each other

  84. B.... V....

    We're going to be in the morning beautiful day

  85. D.... ....

    probably one of the only deadmau5 songs I don't like.

    D.... ....

    I don't pay attention to the lyrics. I just love the progressive harmonies and beat.

    D.... ....

    This is one of the only Deadmau5 tracks that I like. 😂

    D.... ....

    NO ONE ASKED FOR YOUR OPINION

  86. p.... c....

    Please can anyone give me a list of similar songs with the same cool soothing type . Not dupstep or fast tracks

    p.... c....

    +pale crow Alright I did my best:
    1. Disclosure - You & Me feat. Eliza Doolittle (Flume Remix)
    2. James Vincent McMorrow - Wicked Games (Boehm Remix)
    3. ZHU x Gallant - Testarossa Music
    4. The xx - Intro
    5. Secondcity feat. Ali Love - What Can I Do (Grum Remix)
    6. Eric Prydz - Opus

    They are all quite different from each other but to me they are very relaxing and soothing. Tell me what you thought of it :) good day sir.

    p.... c....

    +Lure Edits The xx intro is life <3

  87. R.... B....

    The veldt, gives you innerpeace!

  88. C.... ....

    I love this song this song is the best song ever

  89. R.... W....

    Now most people know this is inspired by a very old science fiction story. I think it's one of the best melodies ever written . James vocals fit perfectly! I could listen to this for days on end!
