Enjoy independent artist on YouTube at: little angel and the rebellion.

[BMuskigee]

This is beautiful

[ImagoCanis]

Daniel's version is better. Sorry, Conor. I stopped liking you after 'I'm wide awake it's morning'. And you're solo project makes me sad. Stop snorting coke and drinking, maybe? :(

[AGuyInAHat]

I Never Knew a song, so simple in it's construction and lyrical structure.

Could be so poignant and warm in its message and ethics.

I've got to admit, that's pretty damn special.

God Bless You Daniel Johnston.

[KtownLAX]

Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose.

[doorbasher]

clear eyes full hearts cant lose

[99kellas]

where'd you think of that sheldizzle??

[SheLDiZzle]

Clear eyes, full hearts, CAN'T LOSE!!!!

[cwpix09]

Goodbye FNL. I'm going to miss that devil town Dillon, Texas. Texas Forever, 6!

[upstatepierce]

Nice work man. Good video and good song and im not even crazy about bright eyes

[daintyrsmarter]

I love Friday Night Lights, but please can people stop commenting about it on this video? It isn't even the same version of the song.

This video is fantastic and absolutely lovely :3 great work.

[Simen117]

Friday Night Lights brought me here!

[SuperBoySA123]

@Simen117 I just watched the final episode of s5. i'm gonna miss it

[OneMoreTimeXD]

@UseMeAbuseMe4Ever can't loose.

[UseMeAbuseMe4Ever]

You make a point of saying that FNL didn't encourage you to put this together, but really do you think that you would have 260k views if it weren't for FNL? Give some props where due. Clear eyes. Full hearts.

[daintyrsmarter]

@UseMeAbuseMe4Ever It isn't even the same version of the song. The song on FNL was covered by Tony Lucca, this one was Bright Eyes. FNL is a great show, but why should they credit them at all? It's great that people have seen this great video but FNL has nothing to do with it.

[UseMeAbuseMe4Ever]

@daintyrsmarter Again, the main reason I would disagree with your assumption that FNL has nothing to do with it, is frankly because I personally would have NEVER even heard of this song without FNL much less followed the link here. So, yes I do think props are due. I think most people heard this through FNL as well. Different version or not, I've never even heard of it without FNL.

[daintyrsmarter]

@UseMeAbuseMe4Ever Personally, I think it is you who is making assumptions. I love Daniel Johnston's music, this is a great song regardless of who covers it. And even if that is why so many people have seen the video, it is obvious the creators of the video were in no way inspired by FNL, so, no, they do not have to give credit to them.

[daintyrsmarter]

Also, if it were me, I would be annoyed that so many people are ignoring the video all together only talking about FNL.

[daintyrsmarter]

@UseMeAbuseMe4Ever That is also like saying JJ Abrams should credit FNL because of all the people who undoubtedly say Super 8 because of Kyle Chandler.

[UseMeAbuseMe4Ever]

@daintyrsmarter Well let's just put it this way. No FNL; NO Devil Town.

[daintyrsmarter]

@UseMeAbuseMe4Ever ...That doesn't make any sense.

[later66]

@UseMeAbuseMe4Ever Who gives a shit about some stupid ass broadcast TV show? This is a good song, being covered by an artist that Rolling Stone rated as the greatest lyricist of the last decade. Football is stupid, high school TV shows are stupid, combining the two is terrible. If you actually think that Bright Eyes, Conor Oberst, or the creator of this video owe even an ounce of credit to a TV show then you are truly an idiot.

[UseMeAbuseMe4Ever]

@later66 Opinions vary along with stupidity. I think you should probably read all the FNL comments before spewing your hatred.

[GahZirra]

@later66 Daniel Johnston, what an amazing artist and human being... also good comment

[tigerlily2219]

i've always luved daniel johnston-- this is wonderful...

[h0tpoop]

i hope a lot of ppl checked out daniel johnston after this

[tenxtone]

it's pretty great and fitting when I've seen this on the Friday Night Lights tv series

[jontel8158]

thumbs up to you if i were sent to this song by FNL best show of all time 

[Elephant1936]

@jontel8158 I think Lost has something to say about that.

[tghetto5]

@jontel8158 Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose...

[382755799]

@jontel8158 and Eric Taylor the best coach of all time

[thatssplendid]

How did NYU respond to this video? It's fantastic. I really appreciate it. It really speaks to me, being from a small town.

[burgueteab]

I saw Friday Night Lights, and i almost cried, because its one of the best tv shows ever

[heather96100]

I really love this!! Amazing job!

[TyphoonHaley]

@TheHove2

Don't be a douche.

[PlaygroundPolitician]

sick cover.

[skolgurl666]

god haha ppl are such haters

[eddiejc1]

Why do I have a sudden image of Manassas, VA and Mike O'Meara?

[cbiancencore]

I feel like I'm trippin mad hard

[KerlonDaniel]

friday night lights brings me here :X what a lovely song

[chasevitamin]

[beeboppify]

OH my god..... i cannot believe u mad that video... how in the world?! thats pure genius. U have inspired me!!

[guycoolSpore2]

@beeboppify phew i thought you were insulting the video for a second xD

[guitarist1234512]

thank you so much ive been looking for this song for ages i forgot the name i saw this video and i was finnally thanks i love this song

[paliokalokrasi]

awsome,thanx

[jadeSPG]

they played this in twilight?! *face to palm*

Twilight already ruined vampires, werewolves, and America in general, does it to have Bright Eyes? Meyers won't be happy until everything has been placed on a 10 year old's level.

Still a great song though and this video is brilliant.

[JoyDivison92]

@jadeSPG this song was NOT in twilight, that was another version that ripped this version, but we should be looking at the greater problem WHY DO THEY HAVE TO INCLUDE DANIEL JOHNSTON IN THIS??!

[asthmapumps]

woofwoof all my frandssssssssss were vammmmmmmmpires!

[theboognish]

great video, great song, all around a good job!

[helenquestionable]

yeah boiiii

[kernalsander]

Maria Taylor really brings the song together at the end.

[thelooberry]

twilight ruins everything

they arent real vampires

they do not deserve this song

[NegusOnTheWorld]

they played this in Twilight?

well... that fucking sucks.

Daniel Johnston did not create these words for that!

[Creature6191]

Dude no sorry not cutting it.

[CourtneyGeorge1739]

I <3 FNL.

[lizzyfeb25]

my fav song on this planet =)

[netforce0]

wow i'm happy about rife now :D thanks

[boohar36]

[rollyisclearythebest]

what album is this off

[patalberg]

@Rolly

Noise Floor. If you don't own it, you must, it is wonderful.

[TheEpicWeezl]

@rollyisclearythebest its from a tribute cd to daniel. the cd is called the late great daniel johnston: dicovered covered. it has some really good bands doing covers like beck and the flaming lips and even death cab for cutie

[rollyisclearythebest]

this version is better than the original

[andipoetic]

I love this...it has a nursery rhyme quality to it

[jtwostep]

Also @newyorkegg, Friday Night Lights used this song multiple times during the first season, which began airing in October 2006, so they may have beaten you to the punch there.

[jtwostep]

@Forrestofwill FNL is still on TV. It just finished it's 4th season on DirecTV and NBC will re-air the 4th season this summer.

[forrestofwill]

I know its still on direct tv but I don't have it. I just hate to wait til summer. :(

[bazookasawaserpent]

Yo, really good man.

[racpembertondual]

What a great cover!!! :)

[ben2sk8]

does anyone know the tabs for the solo?

[sysphus13]

@ben2sk8 use your ears :)

[aikicinema]

This for me is the quintessential Daniel Johnston tune. And this is a beautiful cover--my favorite on this album.

[desireexmassacre]

this is beautiful

[Johnny2hits]

This cover gave Daniel enough fundage to buy Mountain Dews for many many more years. Daniel, you're the man !

[kedgemusic]

some sick shit

fucken psyco's

[forrestofwill]

I wish FNL was stil on real tv and Daniel was singing this song

[g33f]

Those vampires aren't real.

[MLiedecke]

The best man the best.

[vascmana]

Awesome rendition. Props to Mr. Johnston.

[FUKxYOUxSMARTASS]

i like the end when the girl sings it...its very creepy

[tommynooka1]

this is a great video, you've done a good job

[KingdommHeartz]

This is amazing.

[Trolloc1986]

Thanks to the great show Friday Night Lights for leading me to discover this rendition of the song.

[hotbox4u]

dont forget that this lyrics/song was written by daniel johnstons who should get all the credits.

[Buckiller]

@hotbox4u Uh.... the bright eyes should get credit for a great cover and the director should get credit for doing a great job with the video production.

DJ should get credit for writing the song.... yep.

[revoltegirl]

Red lips light in halloween

[Crackshot0001]

i made 66k a year in high school u wanna hear bout vampires? maybe the people u think of as friends really care more bout ur ( money if ur a male) , i 've been out of high school for 2 years an my trust fund is close to zero.

[DMP3G]

haha niggr

[MrBeknown]

at least you had a trust fund, I had shit. Money is evi but you need it to feed the belly.

[Manonymouse]

Nacht, love of money is 'evil'. Greed, as such.

Money is good.

[notlukemertes]

lol okay? Im sorry your trust fund ran out kid. real tough

[radlifemathrock]

when you were making 66k a year in high school, you must have skipped a lot of english classes.

[7SearchlightSoul7]

oh ...just read your summary - lol

OMG you made this vid to accompany that song? This is brilliant - honestly - brilliant. A major director couldn't have done better, in fact anyone else would have ruined it ...your visuals made the song even more beautiful - thanks for the time it took to make this. Daniel and Bright Eyes must both be proud

[7SearchlightSoul7]

Yeah, I like Bright Eyes interpretation of the song production-wise and the vid is really great!  Now one question...who the eff is this Tony guy that ripped off everything from the drum patterns to the production quality of Bright Eyes Cover? I think he just tried to impersonate a song he didn't know wasn't the original...think he got more credit for it than Daniel and Bright Eyes combined too. The music scene is dirty

[Crackshot0001]

sweet . well done

[dbtad]

Daniel's music is so evocative, so sad. Bright Eyes did a beautiful job with this, and with this video, you've done something beautiful too. Wonderful.

[concernforufos]

It's hard to find the proper words to describe what you've done. Amazing. Beautiful. Innovative. Incredibly well done...Thank you for this.

[newyorkegg]

Aww, thank you. It feels so nice to get sweet comments like this.

[jammyd33]

@newyorkegg you deserve it my friend, this is truly beautiful. daniel would be honoured with this tribute to his work.

[fortheloveofmakeup16]

i love the black and white animation, it goes so nicely with the old time feel of the song

[Kerry01]

beautiful <3

[reallyrandom19]

haha this is my SOOOOOONG!

[llandriel]

really like it, good taste! really beatiful! i loooooooooove this song

[Dellemus]

Awesome Bloody awesome song, screw all people who hates this, me and my body loves this song but some of our friends hates it, but fucking hell screw them !!!!

[WillCanWhistle]

i REALLY like this video

hey, i write and record music in a kind of similar taste to conor and daniel

maybe you could fix me up a video?

[kideaters123]

I luv this song so much.i mean who doesnt

[kizzumslovesyou]

[psyshanna]

Wow...great job!

[sethkillian2]

Daniel Johnston is better

[bouchard54]

I saw twilight , and I cry , because it was the worst movie ever !

[jon157]

@bouchard54 that movie is horribly waste of money

[thelonewolf997]

@bouchard54 the worst movie with one of the best song ever.... it's a shame

[daintyrsmarter]

@bouchard54 Agreed, Twilight is terrible, but this video has nothing to do with it.

[a3buckeroo]

luv this song

vote for abby!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

[lovelogan23]

Definitely FNL!!

[shleebee22]

[g0han00]

FNL! This is Daniel Johnston's song!

[LooLoo2124]

name 1 word 2 describe this:

Twilight

[hurbingfed]

Fuck Twilight. How could this song even be related? Twilight is a very overrated movie.

[a3buckeroo]

i agree i hate twilight. personally this song is wayyyyyyyyy too good for that movie.

[bouchard54]

WTF ??????

[LooLoo2124]

i am saying that this song remindes me of twligth gesh

[williegotpwned]

[94McLuViN94]

[abbiruby11]

[janafosho]

Did you get in to NYU?

[newyorkegg]

Yes. I am in my second year already.

[FormaLSDParty]

Dude, good for you.

Well deserved.

[pavement27]

Nice how is it? I too would like to be making movies for a living...NYU is a great university for film...I decided not to take the college route though and instead engulf myself in about 1,000 movies learning as much as I can by just watching and rewatching and doing research...

[pavement27]

Wow...I don't think I should respond. You already made a fool out of yourself with your excellent grammar...And I said nothing about "planes"...Learn how to read and write and then you can make fun of me...Okay?

[narcoticxsquirrel]

lulz got trolled hard homie-g-dawg-snicklefrtiz

[pavement27]

Who got "trolled"? Where is snicklefritz from? I have heard that somewhere but can not remember.

[baltispice]

pinapple express

[pavement27]

ah yes...I do remember that now...

[pavement27]

Also reading lots and lots of literature to improve storytelling techniques...

[OTEK07graffitisk8ter]

i listen to this song everrryday when i go skate...it makes you fell wayy betterr

[bconk35]

A note to the video poster, the song was used in the first season of FNL as well, way before the season 3 promo.

[newyorkegg]

This video was made long before FNL and its promo. Enough with the FNL comments.

[jamesbromberg]

who the hell sings this

[hotarot]

bright eyes sings this dawg!!!!

this is bright eyes cover of daniel johnston's devil town
