  • "gotta find 'n kill my shadow self."

  • A crush on Link from Zelda? I guess we've all been there.

  • oh this is really cool :)

  • what's with the title....

  • His solo work is SO much better than Arcade of Fire!!!

  • I like how his music is almost bi-polar, yet so brilliant.

  • 'Secret sea shells' from The Legend Of Zelda: Link's Awakening(GB).

  • He's one of today's geniuses..ask Arcade Fire better ;)

  • cocaines a hell of a drug.

  • COCAINE! lololololol

  • owen pallet is amazing, this song is so cute.

  • Yeah, you're right.

    Not like there's anything wrong with that.

    Asshole.

  • what a great video!!!

  • c c c c COCAINE!

  • ahhh

    this is the guy that was at sherpdsbush wih patrick wolf

    yes he was very good :D

    xxxxxx love the song

    but it makes me thing of the ps1 games lol

  • i love this son to death.

    one of my favourites.

    i love when he lets out the primal screams.

    it's so evocative.

  • People need to learn that THIS IS MUSIC. I love Owen Pallett (in a non-homosexual way, of course.) His music is so pure.

    I'm so glad I found him by accident!

  • Really? I just can't get into this music. It seems so empty of anything harmonious and spews out only sounds and notes like "bad" atonal music littered with bits of melody. But, that's my opinion. I don't mean to offend any of his fans or speak poorly of his technique as a musician; only that his taste in music and mine differ greatly.

  • It's about sparsity and fullness between the silences. Every sound carries more significance since they have to stand on their own. It's a postmodern attitude about what defines a melody. It's supposed to be a bit melodramatic as well.

    I'm not trying to attack your opinion, I am only meaning to show you an aspect you may have not seen before.

    It's quite possible to "get" this music and still dislike it. It just takes a bit of an adjustment to "get" it.

  • This is very true. As I'm listening to his music more and more now I'm starting to understand, I think, his music more and more. There are some pieces of his I find myself liking such as "Better than Worse", but a majority of his music just isn't my cup of tea. That being said, I still hold that he's a talented musician in his own right.

  • what type of music do you like?

  • All sorts. I'm primarily a "classical" fan, myself, though that includes renaissance to post modern music. Also, I'm a big fan of many video game scores. Likewise, I enjoy popular music such as rock, pop, et al. Folk music, so-called world music, etc. Genre doesn't limit whether or not I like the music. It is, rather, if it appeals to me or not. His music just isn't my personal taste.

  • Ah, I love this song. Owen is such a wonderful writer and musician.

    Did you catch all of the Legend of Zelda references in this one? ;)

  • everyone loves zelda

  • Maybe you should remove whatever is stuck up your ass before commenting on what is a great song...tard!

  • If he was talented enough to make the wonderful background music all on his own, I'm pretty sure he has the right to do whatever the fuck he wants with the rest of the song.

  • @pianoman187 afaik he does play the violin... so there isnt much left.

  • @pianoman187 /watch?v=tFXJKp-NgR8&feature=r­elated

  • i like to poo

  • beautiful. he is so amazing he should be like i dont no he is amazing and i love him. i want to see him live so bad i bet it is even more amazing then on u-tube or idpod and stuff. i love him its like a mix of clasical and modern but not gay modern good modern i dont no i love him alot

  • So awesome live too! I saw him at a nice small venue and he is absolutely amazing. It's hard to believe it's just him up there making up the loops on the spot as he goes along. Genius!

  • I absolutely love his voice when he's soft and low...it works really well for him.  I don't think he should deem it necessary to go too high and be loud about it...other than that...well, he's an awesome gay man.

  • I'm not really a fan of the video but I love this song to pieces. The lyrics are fantastic and the music... indescribable.

  • I really love this video, his singing, and the music. All of it is wonderful!

  • IT'S NOT EVEN CLOUD!

  • um i like basia bulat way better....... although it is very different.. kinda interesting.... like story telling. um yeah... its unique. yikes.

  • Really awesome. This guy has earned my respect (for what it's worth).

  • I like the "classical-ness" of this video. But I really think the voice and the rhythem ruined it. Video is w/e.

  • Ha. Classical-ness.

    And it's rhythm.

    His voice is magical.

  • Oh no, I agree he has a good voice.

    What I meant was the rhythm of his voice.

    And I hate the "Ho-kay!" sound he makes. Urkkss me.

  • He's yelling Cocaine as in "he's the only one of my friends who doesn't do COCAINE" it's a reflection of the emotion he feels about the situation.

    Frustration, anger, etc.

  • you obviously don't know a genius when you see one. you probably listen to my chemical romance or sum shit right?

  • the sound of the violin i mean

  • the violin kinda reminds me of Final Fantasy

  • A Great video and an enchanting song owen pallett is one of the best and hot as well.

  • Stunning....in the best sense. Striking. Thanks Owen. Good to see you doing so well (and looking great these days besides!)

  • haha i likes he yells Cocaine XD

  • Did he yell "Cocaine!" at 1:27?

  • yeah "...the only friend i have who doesn't do.. cocaine"

    or something like that

  • It's, "He's the only friends I have who doesn't do... Cocaine!" =D

  • I love this video so much I can hardly express it.

  • I think I'd like this if it weren't for his style of singing. cool video tho

  • I love how with the way he sings the lyrics it sounds like he just yells COCAINE out of nowhere.

  • he poos this video

  • This is an amazing video, and the song is so beautiful, it takes classical and mixes some of the best vocals, absolutely astounding.

  • this video is so aces

  • Oh my!!! God!!! He's the best... whoa! I just love it, this song... everything! Thank you!

  • SDFGJLKSFG I LOVE HIM.

  • oh man...so great..owen is the best
