    For Ten Club Eyes Only: Watch “Setting Sun”, the very first, official performance captured live at the band’s Seattle headquarters as part of The Dark Matter Interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe. 

    So good.

    Truly the best song on the album.

    For sure. I haven’t felt this strongly about a new song….ever.
    Stone at 4:20 🤣 That riff at the end is something Stone would have written with MLB

    Awesome performance! 

    This song is so impactful to me. It reminds me of the rollercoaster of emotions I went through this past year after losing my Dad, and then seeing my now 3 year old fall in love with the song as well. Hearing it for the first time at Van N1 completely floored me, literally brought tears to my eyes.

    Love this band!

    So fucking good. It’s been awhile since they have had an album closer like Setting Sun.

    So glad they finally played it for us in Australia after crossing of setlist 2x..... it's so gorgeous live

    I'll never forget the first time I heard this song during my first Dark Matter playthrough.  It immediately stood out and I was intrigued by that beautiful intro.  The warm vibes of that guitar and percussion.  Love it.
    I'm spinning, oh-oh-oh I'm spinning

    It is, right behind Waiting For Stevie IMO.

    Yeah I have Stevie 1, Setting 2 & Upper 3, those might be my 3 favorites they’ve done since the 90’s

    Hopefully Setting Sun will open shows for years to come, especially cities where it was scratched from the setlist.  
    It would make for a fantastic opening song.

    Ed introduced the song in Melbourne2 with  something like “will you come on a journey with us?”
    So glad they played it. I’d have to double check the setlist but they played it after the Ed solo song and then launched into Animal and Once. I really great spot in the set. Although I do like the idea of it being the final track instead of YL. Hopefully this hangs around.

    Such an incredibly powerful song, I was so glad they played it in Dublin this year, having lost loved ones in recent months it just hits all my emotions!!

    Bump for the best song in 18 years. Really hope at least one out of each two night stand closes with SS. I also wish the studio version had the extended jam outro.

    The end of this song is basically, "Things might be bleak, so we can choose to end it now, or we make this be only the beginning. "

    It's the twist at the end, if you could see what I see now, we could be amazing, and just getting started. Let us not fade.

    Love this song.

    Also, lyrics aside....those drippy MLB-esque guitar riffs during the second half just get me everytime.

    I don't know how many times I've played this song as I fall to sleep at night. Just caps off the day perfectly. 
    It has my favorite lyric of the whole album. "They say in the end everything will be ok, and if it's not ok well then it ain't the end."

    I took a hiatus from SS and Dark Matter for the past month. But the past week I have driven home blasting the Las Vegas 1 version of SS; singing every word at the top of my lungs of the second half and just jamming those MLB riffs
