Daniel Johnston, "Mean Girls"

[melinaHermes]

i love you Daniel! you're sooo good!

[MarDmxs]

yeah yeah yeah! >.< it's so good !

[theLukebollheimer]

i love how they zoom in on the mountain dew in the beginning!!!

[terraceization]

amazing



[MrWoodHimself]

Can he still play piano?

[BigBruinekool]

Anyone know the next time he'll be in Michigan?

[RoughshodElm]

is there a not live version...? These screaming people are annoying

[iowafilmdude22]

Mountain Dew

[fotwunny]

A real musician should cover this song

[iowafilmdude22]

@fotwunny The real you should get some taste.

[Roboytron]

That man loves his Mountain Dew :] His music speaks to me like no other.

[SilenceBroken23]

Notice the Mountain Dew. Awesome. He's the reason why I started drinking it again.

[heimdallargaldr]

idk why the fuck I like this guy. He's not a good singer, and he's not a good guitarist. I think it's his mysterious personality and his intriguing life that makes me a fan. He may not have the most beautiful voice or the killer looks, but he has a beautiful soul and a great heart.

[YungZ905]

ya his songwriting abilities are amonst the best in my opinion and many others aswell

[gregorisgod]

Also, I can empaphise with his mental ill health and memory problems. I love him, he's amazing.

[gregorisgod]

Daniel Johnston is a beautiful human being.

Phenomenal songwriter, wears his heart on his sleeve. A huge influence on me, and I hope to see him live soon.

His music is just so simple and emotional. Far more talent to do this than to do something like Steve Vai's music (no disrespect to Mr Vai, I actually don't dislike him).

[TheBattleZombie]

I know he's not the greatest guitar player, but man what a song writter! Damn this song is catchy!

[anycolouryouwant]

i wish someone would knock out that cunt screaming in the crowd

[welcometheplagueyear]

ANYONE GOT THE LYRICS??

[bribankphoto]

awesome genius of melody and playful poetry...

nice vid prod gentleman!!!

[beendoodle]

he came here to sweden, but it was two weeks before my 18th birthday so I weren't allowed to purchase tickets to his show ='(

[FreeLantern]

I don't know what it is... but this guy's music has captured me.

First time hearing it... god damn it's good. I feel bad for the guy, but he makes great music, hopefully that helps him with what's he's got.

[modestmoose83]

I know what it is, everything about him is so genuinely human.

That's how I identified with him so quick anyway. He isn't hiding anything, it's the "dance like nobody is watching" type deal...

[dreamboatspetticoats]

Is this on one of his albums?? I really need this song!

[Swejster]

Gee, you're nice.

[SunEyes27]

there's no doubt his musical skill is a little lacking but i think that just adds to his charm

still, crimsonrush did take it a little too far.

[gringochucha]

I agree.

[Ieatbabyseals]

lol...insensitive/nails through eyes...wut?

that's for crimsonrush

[imnothear]

wonderful performance

[MorayEel]

Think about it.

[jomoe73]

The man can't sing. The man can't play. Can anyone please tell me why people actually go to he's concerts or buy he's records???

[kadane7777777]

dear jomoe. the answer is simple: because music can also be heard with your soul or heart.

[kadane7777777]

by the way, it's "his records", not "he's records".

[amespektorwainwright]

He's art.

[19AFS91]

the man can sing. the man can play.

i would give anything to see him live

[WeWillWinAnarchy]

Because his music is so sincere.

[sea0un]

brilliant song writer better than most mainstream artists thats for sure

[y0ur0ck]

i thought he had to have the lyrics in front of him to remember them

[ImSuperKewl]

He has them there... rewatch it and look for it. It's on a stand.

[OneCopperKid]

If you listened to early modest mouse, to me it sound like it's heavily influenced by Daniels music, he's so charming, I don't know why?

[Webstuhl]

kind of bizarre, i mean from his appearence he would be the last person on earth you would expect to make such beautiful music...guess people are shallow

[skittles191919]

um, this song kinda sucks. thumb me down, but you know it does lol

[tylerc208]

I guess you just don't understand. It's a pity.

[youtubinfool]

no.. nobody who looked for this song "knows" it sucks you egotistical dick.

[skittles191919]

ok, i like daniel johnston and im saying this song sucks. and if you like this song i can imagine how much of a loon u are. L.

[knobolder]

ledge.

[anyuser23]

I cannot wait to see him tomorrow... true genius.

[filthandfury]

hes a beautiful person, I had the privledge of seeing him in New York

[dartboardpicasso]

This is so expertly and beautifully shot... if the Johnston family ever saw this, I'm sure they'd cooperate...

Beautiful footage. Thank you for sharing.

[fulvew]

Thanks for the kind words. I sent the Johnstons a link for the video and they said they liked it. They were more than cooperative letting us shoot and share the video. Good people.

[41music]

when was this song written?

Thanks!

[heather50s]

thanks for the fullview of Daniel Johnston!

[TheHorseShow]

This song is truly fantastic. I just saw him perform this same song live in S.F.

Thanks for uploading it. I love the close-up on the mountain dew.

[juslounging]

I like the black and white

[missedbythegood]

amazing. i love this song so much, and it's such a great quality video!! is this gonna be some dvd show or something?? AND...does this song appear on any of his albums?

[fulvew]

There are no plans for a dvd. When I talked to Daniel's brother about it, he said we could shoot the show as long as we didn't sell it. He was more than happy to have us share it with people so we just posted it here for everyone. Thanks for watching. We will post more songs from the show later. Thanks for watching.

Check out FULVEW's youtube page for more clips from the show.
