Astronaut - "Who Killed Amanda Palmer" Video Series: Part 2

[banshek7]

I LOVE YOU AMANDA I HOPE YOU KNOW WHO THIS IS.

[AngelEarth11]

oooooomggggggg i love you amanda palmer

[MzMaihem]

I love you.

[desea]

don't watch this before going to sleep, kids!

[commonloon0]

I'M IN LOVE WITH HER MUSIC

[neonballroom]

My favorite song of hers that I've discovered so far...love her, and her old band The Dresden Dolls.<3

[FuzzyPlushroom]

This album - really, this song - is why I'm still here.

Amanda's so intense in person, though. I wish I'd been able to tell her as much. Ah well, there'll be another chance...

[lilith551]

She looks so beautiful in this video. I mean don't get me wrong, Amanda always looks amazing. But wow...

[aryllia]

Am I the only one disturbed by how on such a beautiful video, the highest rated comment proclaims that people with different opinions aren't worthy of living?

[oT1eMoRoKProductions]

I want that red jacket/tailcoat that she wears.

[MutantPanda]

I remember things when she sings. Things, lost, forgotten.

[ddevotchkaa]

i think i'm in love with her for real okay

[unwoman]

Ampersand makes me cry more, but this is probably my favorite song from Who Killed Amanda Palmer.

[toxicallypink]

her music is... cleansing. if you truly listen, it's so moving. the emotion, the talent, the pain, you can almost touch it.

[doyledanzig]

Does anyone get a Shakespear Sisters 'Stay' feel from her make up??

[ArtaudD2]

She is scaryhot.

[XxPaperRosesxX]

She is so beautiful and inspiring in every way.

[MartyredxMaiden]

amazing, timeless song, songs like this dont get made anymore, songs that never die. she deserves so much more recognition.

[ieks]

good song, almost an album itself

[TechnoMageXIII]

Saw Amanda Palmer today on the Doctor Who Special. I felt like listening to Astronaut :)

[Archtungmonster]

go for the field generator

[animallover1224]

this makes me really happy for some reason. today i was shown amanda palmer, today is a great fucking day

[Coolguyus123]

@animallover1224 ya this song someone told me is about her boyfriends addiction hint hint

[wolfkins]

It's funny because I only realized exactly what this song is actually about today.... it's obvious that she's talking about her boyfriend's heroin use (I'm not referring to her husband Neil btw) and exactly how it's this deterioration. He's an "astronaut" and everyone knows that astronauts "shoot up" in the name of science. Amanda you're a bloody effing genius!

[thegig100]

I don't even know why people bother to watch only to press the "dislike" button '-'

[1redrum]

Amanda's music is so AMAZING, it's like in each song she knows how i feel and want to express myself which i assume how all her other fans feel as well.

[stbottlecap]

a bug just flew into my eye. now i look like i cried. damn it.

[xliladdictedx]

amanda palmer is the one whos music touched my soul:)

[InvisibleGothSoul]

She is hot *_*

[zupanicka]

she reminds me of Severus Snape:D in a good way of course:D

[y21900]

that gives me the creeps

[689steven]

STRONG



[thetotorotree]

18 dislikes.... just.... HOW?!

[AlbertSiebener]

i love the "Dresden Dolls", but i think this is the best song she ever wrote. (at least of those i know)

[LCxCZ]

@AlbertSiebener For me it's Strength Through Music

[noodlesxstrawberryz]

Why am I crying??

[creepela]

@noodlesxstrawberryz Why are you crying? I'm crying because all the people that could remind me who I was are dead now. I don't remember who I am.

[FuzzyPlushroom]

@noodlesxstrawberryz Personally, I know why.

Would've been three years today.

[Crazycannibal]

Wow!

[Kierkegaard73]

In my mind, music expresses an elemental originality or primitive mood, while language expresses a concrete idea. For me this song blends perfectly the constant pendulum of conflicting emotions in perfect musical rhythm to Amanda's lyrical outpourings. Outpourings of an internal dialectical argument that depression wages ceaselessly in the melancholic individual. There are three distinct voices battling here...

[Hayley1518]

I THANK MY FAVORITE AUTHOR FOR MARRYING HER SO THAT I COULD STUMBLE ACROSS HER MUSIC HAHA

[imix9sib]

@Hayley1518 I know! I can't even be pathetically jealous, but I can be very excited for their MOST TALENTED CHILDREN EVER

[SvenHellfingers]

Bizarre video. Great performance.

[lauracarolinacasti]

me encantaría que vinieran a Colombia.

[Jordsy91]

She looks heaps like Milla Jovovich here.

Beautiful as always.

[noodlesxstrawberryz]

She needs to do a duet with Pj harvey!

[MuzicMan118]

not the best singer in my opinion but the songs are awesome

[ravendovev]

I actually like the low budget look of these videos...feels more authentic somehow. Less Hollywood and more Indie I guess.

[SuperChibz]

Wow! She's wearing clothes!?! jk I still love her.

[ellisjuice]

When she played this song at the concert I crapped my pants due to epicness.

[xSeasidhQuinnx]

This song is so amazing.

Also, I want that coat.

[L0stKey5]

Amanda Palmer and Neil Gaiman - I would be the meat in that sandwich.

[cjcurrie007]

She's so gorgeous.

[Severolus]

and im so old again

why is utubed so much youtube - in this case?

oh, amanda palmer

i dont like myself right now...ena ena ena

[VomSaturn]

Amanda, how come you know me so good?

[curransteven]

Every time I think I couldn't possibly like her any more...

[AmericanWerewolf17]

Amanda is the only artist who I think is worth buying on CD or paying for a download.

[danishcheese7530]

1:04

A face that is worthy of being immortalized.

An entire scene that is begging to be painted.

[avirazzy]

i love ben folds for producing this :)

[Syvelocin]

Just learned this on piano. Well, it's definitely easier than it sounds at least :P

This is the song that introduced me to her and the Dresden Dolls. And here I am, years later, going to a Dresden Dolls concert this weekend :D

[katyotto]

Amanda. I love you. Thanks for saving a lot of our souls.

[AntiquetteMustachio]

@GodHonestLie that coat was made for her by one of her friends out of a curtain. Its probably the coolest coat you'll ever meet.

[AntiquetteMustachio]

Why is she so perfect??? Oh how I love you, Amanda.

[jcbamm26]

she's amazing but why are her videos such poor quality?

[marguipico]

@jcbamm26

Probably 'cause of the budget :/

[tainteddeity]

@jcbamm26

I don't think they're that bad at all. They've got a nice feel to them, probably partly caused by the smaller budget.

[james163163]

@tainteddeity yeah she probably used the budget for one video for like... 10 of them lol

[Setherfacehead]

@jcbamm26 they're low quality because her record label refused to do any promotion on this album so she got out of her contract with them and made the videos herself.

[insaneW9]

But HE is my love, MY Astronaut!!

[GodHonestLie]

i want that coat! :O

[BlindBlannche]

Shes mad! SO HOTTTTTTTTTT amazingly talented writer

[MrElegantElephant]

@deejersthecat no no no all we need is a time machine and 18 condoms

[aryllia]

@deejersthecat

Shame on you

Show some respect for life will you, enough people die as it is and this video is too awesome for hate.

[cacamille]

amanda...this is so amazing.

[Touch7he5ky]

Ahem, what I meant to say is that she's a freakin' musical genius! "Good art is pleasing to the senses, but great art makes you feel something deep down." Her songs move me, and I can't really relate to any of them. Yet still they move me.

[Touch7he5ky]

I love Amanda Palmer so much ;w;

[OdinCalls14]

Best song on this album

[thedevilinmyteacup]

icecream finder.

[wasabipantalones]

I want her jacket so much. D:

[NACLM]

I miss Brian, I wonder what happened.

[blackwidow1417]

@NACLM I heard that they're on hiatus, partly cause they're broke.

[StephenByerly]

@NACLM Goblins ate him and made a simulacrum out of peach fuzz and chocolate sauce. Perhaps she preferred to keep collaborators and food in a separate category.

I liked what she did in the Dresden Dolls, but I'm glad she's done what she's done since.

[GermanAntichrist]

AFP FOREVER

[olgakal88]

so fucking amazing

[Kazeninoru]

amanda palmer is so damn talented, love this song, but there is no song i dont love from her <3

[thrill124]

She is most incredible live. Believe it or not, there is even more emotion to her voice. In every single song. I will never forget her performance.

[aliveinuterine]

I met her a week ago. Literally couldn't speak, asked her for a photo and it just came out as "blelkeleleghrhrhr"

[GingerJessika]

I broke my laptop to this song, I was pretending to be a music director and hit a cuppa tea all over my laptop haha :) I love you amanda!

[undeadda]

I saw her at the crystal ballroom in Portland where she said she wrote this song and she cried. It moved me and broke my heart all at once.

[Laneh]

I know it's a music video and all, but mad props for having heels like that whilst playing piano. It's such a bitch.

[garnetine]

love her...just saw her live and she's so powerful and genuine!!

[itspuddingtiem]

She's absolutely perfect.

[AiMerodi]

This is possibly my favourite song in the entire universe. Wonderful <3

[avirazzy]

has anyone else noticed how much she mentions astronauts in her music?

[grins38]

@avirazzy yeah!

[mcrluv]

@avirazzy yeah, i wonder why the topic has turned up so much...from her solo album to old dresden doll songs

[daliahussein156]

Brilliant. I have to admit, I've pressed the replay button about 13 times. This song is just entirely too marvelous.

[amazingsierra]

She's one of the most amazing musicians I've ever seen. Only she could pack so much talent, emotion, skill, and raw passion into a five minute song. 

[kulang90]

Those 14 people who thumbs downed this video are awful, awful people ;'|

[daliahussein156]

@kulang90, I agree 110%.

[kulang90]

@daliahussein156 ^^

[trouthead13]

to my loves

[irini425]

she is fucking genious..seriously dude..

[bonino02]

probably my favorite song off WKAP, but it's hard to choose.

[BlueCrow24]

Absolutely love the intensity. Favorite thing about Amanda Palmer, she loves what she does and you can really feel the passion.

[zavalael]

Anyone else check out the new evelyn, evelyn record? It was produced by Amanda and I can't stop listening to it!

[LollirotLolita]

@zavalael I agree! I love those songs! They're very very clever and fun to listen to!

[sanityisrelative]

AFP is wonderful. I love to put my headphones on, crank the volume and just ~feel~ her songs.

~

[gargantuen666]

Love the beginning part

[MsToolboxx]

does somebody know if there is any similar amazing band like the dresden dolls??

theres sth from amanda ''evelyn evelyn'' but its not that emotional..

i love that kind of music, so im looking for more of this stuff...

if sb can help me.. grateful!!

[VaaniKevin]

@MsToolboxx

I recommend Harlequin Jones, they're great :)

[Niiauyr]

An acceptable person to look after poor old Neil.

[misswoopa]

saw this live on friday. fucking amazzzzzzing.

[KthoniaEcate]

I.Just.Love.This.Song...I do! thank you ,oh, thank you Amanda Palmer!

[Timebaby75]

This song takes my breath away...

[OooOooiiooOooO]

I don't usually cry because of music, I NEVER EVER did, before I heard Amanda Palmer. It's insane.

It's just, impossibly awesome, like, I can't even find the right words but holy fucking jesus; I love her.

"And I am still not getting what I wan't

I wanna touch the back of your right arm

I wich you could remind me who I was

Because every day I'm a little further of"

[Slairea]

è qualcosa di magnifico! *_*

[ThreeCheersForLaura]

Damn i love this song!

[thes1n]

One of the best songs I´ve ever heard!!! <3

[Nell440]

I've been hooked on Amanda Fucking Palmer for the last 3 months. I think it's physically impossible to dislike the masterpieces she creates. <3

[NeonxSpotlights]

Wow, you got 17 thumbs up for that statement just there xD

[Anubusjr]

I'm REALLY happy I stumbled upon Amanda Palmer and also the The Dresden Dolls. She's probably in my top ten fave artists...

[cheeto55]

@Anubusjr u have no idea how talented she is...ive been a long time fan and yet she can still surprise me im glad u stumbled on to her music! :)

[catlover1001]

i fucking LOVE this song!!!

[LozzyTheOracle]

One of her greatest, without a doubt.

[Nakkinak]

no joke - i think she is the most talented songwriter in the current music world

[MsToolboxx]

@Nakkinak oh youre not the only one!! i kiss you for your comment!!

[littlerainworm550]

@Nakkinak

I would like to mention also regina spektor, soap and skin, laura marling.and tori amos.

I think these women with amanda are the high level.

[MarshmallowEyes]

@littlerainworm550 it occurred to me the other day that Amanda Palmer is my only real role model who isn't a fictional character (er...well...she's a character, anyway!)

[Ominous09]

@Nakkinak I agree with you i mean she is among the most talented

[TheAbsolutionHowl]

@Nakkinak - I might agree with you if it weren't for people like Will Sheff and John Darnielle. Maybe even Josh Ritter as well.

There's a host of others as well (Yoni Wolf, Craig Finn, Hutch Harris, Jack White, and Conor Oberst - to name a few).

She definitely deserves a spot in that top tier, though.

[kmacmuzikmafia27]

@TheAbsolutionHowl

Oh yeah definitely Conor Oberst. And maybe Laura Marling.

[kmacmuzikmafia27]

@Nakkinak

I completely agree. I was so mad that I hadn't found out about her yet! Some people seem to overlook her because of the style of her music, but I think it serves the writing perfectly :) I would die for covers of her songs in just acoustic guitar or something though.

[synwhisper85]

@Nakkinak

Agreed. I listen to this song everyday and it still sends shivers down my spine every time.

[spritenite]

@Nakkinak You might also look into Ani DiFranco. Another fantastic artist.

[LuckyPageTurner]

it's funny how we can't hear her piano-ing at the "i go crazy at the piano" part xD

She's way too awesome when playing piano though...

[detailfreakable]

luckypageturner- agree! the piano is there the whole time btw, but the strings get louder.

i love playing this, especially the intro bit...

[smellslikechildren1]

It's the most fun song of hers, I'd have to say. To play, at least.

[fuckingcuntt]

I love how she just goes crazy on the piano. So much TALENT :)

[xconfettie]

i love her eyebrows!

[blownaFUSE]

Utterly gorgeous. First chance I get, I'm buying your CD.

[Velarde039]

fucking amazing... :O.. we´ll see you in Madrid :D

[screamolives]

I swear this song hightens my heart rate!

[PatrykZippers]

Amanda, your so beautiful, I love your music and everything about you...keep up the grate work!!

[maolcolm]

"the pieces don't fit together so good / from all the breaking and all the gluing back" - story of my fucking life.

[twilightfreakism]

my'n 2 :(

[smellslikechildren1]

Mine? Too?

[mark123765]

i was her security detail at symphony hall

[joedaroo1]

i saw her on her secret show, it was amazing. i love tweeter

[JellyOnTheRoad]

It gets so intense when I play this with my girlfriend on piano and guitar.

It's so amazing.

<3

[KlonopinSaves]

That lyric: just my luck, they found an upper half. it's a very nice reminder...quite possibly the most beautiful, darkly comic, sad lyric ever written and sung.

[AlwaysOnAUnicycle]

She came to my town when I was out!! SOOOOOOOOOOO MAD!!!!!!!!!!

[bleakXautumn]

AHHHHH. me too. she came to philadelphia while i was at dress rehearsal for a play i was the lead in. i wasn't allowed to miss it Dx

[oliverclosehoff]

you were the lead? impressive!

[bleakXautumn]

haha why thank you. it was oklahoma, one of my least favorite musicals. One of the reasons i kind of like it is cause AFP covered "I Cain't Say No" and made it amazing.

[JacksXmessengerX]

Chills.

I love me some Amanda Palmer.

[thelightelectric]

I could never pick a favorite off WKAP, but if i absolutely had to pick just one song, it'd be Astronaut. It's got this savage, intense, raging beauty to it, that only Amanda Fucking Palmer can create. It's haunting and terrifying and aggressive and magical and erotic all at the same time.

(hell, i'm a gay guy, and every time i see her perform my entire body tingles. she's sex on legs)

[twilightfreakism]

omg

i agree with everything u just said

except i wouldnt be able to express it through text lol

and i'm a gay guy to who also feels the same way about amanda fucking palmer ! lolz

[MichaelinSF]

This human being is completely awesome. The talent is incredible.

I couldn't compare her to anyone, although she has a bit of Hazel O'conner going on here.

thank you amanda!!!!!!

[LollirotLolita]

Amanda Palmer is fucking amazing... she is a true inspiration and a beautiful women. I love her so. <3

[lydiab84]

Amanda Plamer SAVED my life!!!

[chocomintflamingoes]

If I should depict Medea in her late years, that's her image. I love her passion, the look in her eyes... the first time I saw it I thought, this woman is crazy. She's just a genius.

[Yoetah]

"Is it getting harder to pretend?"

[triplitex]

Woo! Seeing her in Northampton tonight!

[waerfeles]

I lovers her red coat. Great song.

[opressor555]

seeing her TONIGHT!!!!! yeaaaaahhhhh!

[xxXxSiLeNcExXxx]

you're so fucking lucky!!

[BrooklynPhotoGal]

I relate so much to this whole album. Thank you for this. Understanding is everything.

[lexusppp]

Amanda Palmer....already a cult character......

[gigirl476]

I <3 your coat!!!!!

[greeneyedindian0966]

i love this song so amazing. amanda palmer has out done herself once again

[lyralestranger]

This is one of my most favourite songs of all time

[KlonopinSaves]

This is the only song ever in which I play air-piano, air-drums, and air-strings. And I love her vocals tics, too. She is pouring so much of herself into this I think I got some Amanda Palmer on my face. But I like it.
