[minipixi4eva]

[isaa981]

[mischievousape]

This is the best thing on YouTube :)))



[LadyMurderMaid]

Amanda Palmer pisses excellence.

And everything she bakes is made of win.

[beagleeight]

I can't imagine anyone writing a song as awesome as this about a stupid, boring old guitar.

[jessicarene551]

I thought it said remember we're all dead inside not going to die

[worksofman]

Ok, I just bought a ukulele, because of this. There was no choice, really. Thank you, Amanda Palmer.

I think.

[ReflectEveryone]

Brilliant!

Lather, rinse, repeat.

There's a Bbmaj7 at the end of the bride, but you can kind of ignore it.

[dljc1979]

BEST. SONG. EVER.

[shelovesuke]

I just agree with this just so much.

[VictorianAcacia]

I'm sorry that a couple of you have no taste. Amanda is my idol. Neil and her make such an adorable couple. :) They are so perfect together.

[madholylime]

[SHUGABELLA]

[Chef7389]

I love how everyone gets really euphoric, when she sings "cos even if your grades are bad, it doesn't mean you're failing!".

You don't need a degree in psychology to interprete that.

[demonella]

@Chef7389 I got straight As and I still think it's a beautiful sentiment. Especially when you get out into the world and discover all the good grades in the world won't get you a job.

[Chef7389]

@demonella Well, I agree with her as well. In the end, grades aren't that important and say very little about you as a person.

It's just that everyone there gets a little too exited about it, and I find that really interesting and it makes me think about the kind of people that are there and the society we live in.

[MentalRetarNation]

I love her so much.

[TheEditingShop]

I play the ukulele. I want to marry her.

[timelady3]

i got given an anonymous ukelele - a friend is giving ukes to people anonymously to cheer them up. how damn magic is that? it is easier than a guitar with my wheelchair too - and sounds magic:)

love and penguin waffles mate - you and neil scoot down to adelaide sometime soon:)

[900kKilla]

I actually applauded my computer screen.

[metalkorn93]

@900kKilla So did I!!! ...until I realised what I was doing, even then, I was applauding in my head!

[musicalfrogs]

Lovin' the Victrola shirt that Amanda's rockin'! Yay Seattle!

[vikio452]

I kept being distracted from the awesomeness by the fact that Amanda does not seem to need oxygen to stay conscious.

[thelaughingman79]

@vikio452 you see deities don't need to breathe. i'm surprised she would not pretend to need to breathe in public though...thats kind of careless of her

[TheCoffeyboy]

Learning this as fast as I can!

[gingerninja79]

Lol EPIC... Peaceful funny protests are the best kind!! :D

[BeepStratten]

Mandy! Get yer erse back tay Scotland ! We need ye hen!

[UKISOCIETY]

Thanks for posting. Stay safe

The (successful) Irish revolution had a lot more to do with people playing instruments than making pipe bombs.
