Will this be used as the music video ?

It's nice but I don't know... I expected much better.

It looks like live visuals to me — because of its relative simplicity. But it's beautiful ! Reminded me of the Surface to Air gymnasts. (oh, maybe that's what makes me think it looks like tour visuals after all...). Nice colours and patterns !

I think it's the dvd visual and the video clip too.
It's perfect like that

nice video! like it a lot at first view. and for swoon on the brainkiller board: there they share the file in 320kbps...itunes will only sell their 256kbps versions.

i'm waiting for the long version of swoon. the radio edit is too cut together imo. the radio edit could also deserve a minute more.

but a very very strong track. swoon is like ebw10 and star guitar having sex (midnight guitar jr.)

I watched it in 720p and in full screen, it changed my mind. It fits the track real nice !

I think I saw your comment on the Chems facebook for Swoon. Either that or someone else out there has your avatar. Thanks for voicing it and keeping things in the present! ;)

Woah. A four-course meal for your ears and eyes. Perfect. Pure alpha beta psychedelic funkin' ! Love the refrence to BRB/out of control visuals with that man wearing billycock and umbrella.
Still, it ends too quick and does not have that break which the live version has. It leaves me wanting more Swoon.

What's with all the moaning about Swoon? I've read some bad comments on Facebook, Youtube and even on this forum.
I'm totally in love with this tune and i think it's one of the most likeable tunes they've ever made.
It has the epicness of Saturate and beautifulness of Surface to Air. How can you not like it!?
You're never too retarded to RAVE!!!

huh, this track is growing and growing on me (in super high speed). beautiful and the one and only chemsynths in the background. perfect with the video (hopefully the music video as well)...can't stop watching this. so much more excited about the other 6 further tracks now. can they be as EPIC as S + EV? i'm sure they will.

swoon 10/10

I feel like this signifies a return to my favorite period of the chems. BRB/OoC were the first two singles from DYOH and Surrender, yes?

wells. It is now officially official. Remember to fall in love is Swoon. I wonder what this will mean for the rest of Further?

BEAUTIFUL, both the video and the song :D

Vocals sound very similar to Midnight Madness (whales = EPIC!) :D

I dunno why people are unhappy with the videos, both the EV and Swoon video are great!

This song is jubilant, airy and free - it drifts and undulates on the breeze like those little white dandelion tufts you used to blow wishes on when you were a kid.

Where the celestial and cool Escape Velocity propels you out into the galaxy, the terrestrial warmth of Swoon brings you back down to earth. Both songs are wide open spaces but in different way. I like that and it gets me excited to hear it all in context. The timing is perfect as Swoon is a lovely signal to summertime, and goddamn - it's freakin catchy!

I like the video, too. I like the use of texture and think it compliments the song perfectly.

I'm a little late to the party! Here's my own input. Love the sond, the YouTube videos of them djing it did not do justice, you couldn't even tell the riff was this rough distorted synth since everything in those videos are. Really good song though, has that energy and feel suitable for a song about falling in love.
The visuals are awesome, really simple idea yet amazingly complex, love the music response/ out of control references too, nice to see those guys still have work.

Finally, I think the chem/record label are doing a great job right now in general with the way things are going. You have to drop crops of props to the matter that ev and swoon were put out there to listen to, rather than hiding it in the dark and hoping nothing leaks before release day. it's just cool to be able to listen to them with out all the radio crapola.
