  • this guy is so amazing...what a talent!

  • Damn. Just... Damn. Very good.

  • i cant stop watching this

  • Funny how everybody is all about 'somebody that i used to know' while the rest of the album is that much more a master piece. Peace peeps

  • When I hear this all I think is "YES" !!!

  • I want to create a "LOVE" button for this song!!!

  • @Stargate8girl my exact thoughts

  • Every single song from Making Mirrors is a deadset winner, just as it was with Like Drawing Blood. This man can do no wrong. Yes, I'm a little bit of a fanboy. :D

  • Reminds me of high school. Only ever dated one gal, and it was under similar circumstances to those described in this song. Wasn't meant to be though.

  • And i couldn't, and i could not help myself!

  • love this song.....

  • I am a firm believer that everything you stumble upon in life comes to you in the moment in time its meant to be found. This is one of those moments. By finding this i myself have been found.

  • I´m absolutely falling in love with Gotye´s music! I just found out about him three days ago and have been listening to his songs during the weekend. I'm from Mexico and I wish people got to know him here in my country It would be amazing to have him give a concert in Mexico!

  • brings the light beautiful..

  • sad but happy...

  • amazing song

  • i died

  • Super music - for me a great revelation

  • Ugh I wanna marry his music so f*cking bad!!!

  • Love this song so much it hurts.

  • wow ! juste géniale cette chanson !!

  • Can't emphasize enough how refreshing his music is. So beyond glad that God graced him with such talent and that I could stumble across it.

  • Love this song!!!

  • I dont wanna share his music with these Beiber lovers of today!

  • This song touches your soul!!!

  • I just can't stop listening to this song... I wonder who he is singing this to.

  • I actually do not dislike ANY songs I've heard so far ... which has been pretty much all of them. Too nice.

  • That's definitely the best Sting song since the album "Nothing like the sun". And the best Peter Gabriel tune since "So"! And that's meant as a compliment...

  • Heard this in HMV, was an effort capturing some of the lyrics to type into Google to find out this bad boy... worth it though!

  • Never worry about the music. Just be glad that you found and love it. Beautiful song. Share as much as you can.

  • This guy is just getting started! He will do more great music and it won't be denied Love it!!! Glad I found you Wally!

  • To the devine Gotye,

    Never ever ever ever ever EVER stop making your beautifully incredible music!

    Love,

    Every single one of your fans throughout the world.

    <3 <3 <3 <3

  • beautiful, in a class of its own amazing fantastic beat, lyrics beautiful haunting voice

  • AND I HAVE FOUND GOD

    

  • FU*K ! can't stop listening ! -.-

  • oh this is so good!!

  • what a great song

  • great tune!!

    

  • I just figured out the meaning of life :)

  • Kinda reminds me of Phil Collins

  • @MistrustMixedNuts Yours in my favorite comment!! Just discovered Gotye's music 2 days ago and fell in love with his voice. Phil Collins is my favorite of all time. Now it all makes sense!! Love love love Gotye's music & voice - they are both brilliant!

  • I absolutely LOVE this song. I'm new to Gotye. Have spent much time on gotyemusic youtube account watching documentary videos and listening to his music, bought last two albums and I cannot stop listening to them. My youngest son interest in music and finds Gotye's music compilations and methods fascinating. What a remarkable artist. So glad I finally found his music. Gotye, please keep making your beautiful music!!!!

  • @ginzoid65

    Same here :D

  • @ginzoid65 i concur all thee fucking way! Im excited about this man!

  • This is what talent sounds like. Gotye= Talent

  • I'm so in love with this song!

  • jakbym Stinga słyszała...niesamowite

  • I love this song <3

  • This song "saved me".

  • love <3

  • i wish there was a "love" button

  • Amazing!! Loving it!

  • I heard this song on the radio and now I just found it! SO COOL!

  • This song is so stunning. The first half is so sad, but it makes the hope of the latter half just that much more hopeful.

  • Pity there's no Glastonbury this year, I would love to see Gotye at it. Maybe in the future I hope.

  • @salmo19 just saw your comment and was like WHAT? why?? then i was like oh shit the Olympics!! lol

  • great tune! love to see he isnt only a nine-day-wonder!

  • which is good by the way, they're all terrific

  • this guy sounds like imogen heap, sting, peter gabriel

  • i hear a little Daniel Johns

  • you ask him if gotye is a band, those playing the instruments are his closest of pals, yes , they are a band, his name represents them

  • This band reminds me a lot of radiohead. But better. :)

  • Comment removed

  • @maubreib ITS NOT A BAND, HE IS A SOLO ARTIST

  • @maubreib I like his music too, but Radiohead are a different league! I think we should stop comparing... this artist is better than that artist ... just enjoy good music!

  • WHY WHY WHY? so less views?

  • I'm going to see Gotye in March in Boston!! :)

  • so hes not a one hit wonder ..

  • @ameliabadelia95 indeed!

  • When I`m hearing his amaizing voice....hmm moment it's similar to Sting but different

  • This is my favourite song off the whole album. Something so hopeful and bright about it just never fails to make me smile. I wish I had heard of Gotye years ago, I feel I have been missing out!

  • if ur a dickwad u will b the 8th person to dislike. fact

  • wow this song hits home, every word

  • so beautiful...this is pure & true music...everyone needs an opportunity to hear this & not be sheltered away from it.....damn corporate tightwads...

  • Gotye save me from crappy music. Thank you.

  • I like this guys stuff. radio (corprate radio) wont really push his view on the world.Your kids are supposed to be singing rihannas "sex in the air and I love the smell of it",and beyonces 4 singles a week on constant rotation,and recently nicky minaj garbage that gets pushed and forced fed to the masses. K rant over, Im gonna hand over my hard earned cash to buy this guys album. Screw you atca,sopa,we will pay for the original stuff,not your corprate puppets that want us to be robots,!! :)

  • @treefrog2108 I agree with your sentiments, however, robots is an understatement.... watch music industry exposed to go deeper down the rabbit hole. Beautiful song .... my fiance told me this is her song to me..... I love her..... 2012 is going to be an awesome year everyone.... have fun under the sun while using it's energy to grow tasty fruits and vegetables. Listen to brilliant, neurologically stimulating music like this. Strive for Truth and Justice... Peace and Love

  • Just when i thought somebody i used to know was good i hear this and its better....

    Amazing....

  • I bought the album on the strength of Somebody That I Used to Know ... when I finally got around to listening to this song I left it on repeat as I walked home. I was crying when I opened my door.

  • @thesorehead thats what real music should do to you :)

  • @misslizzard1111 i'm hearing you darlin, totally agree :)

  • wow just wow, Gotye is amazing 

  • The thing about Gotye is that his songs get BETTER with every listen! I don't think I'll ever get tired of listening to this song over and over and over and over ^_^

  • @ebedgert ah see then there would be like 50 songs in the #1 spot and then math dies and the universe explodes and we all die. Best to keep him a bit lesser known in this country, me thinks :)

  • Comment removed

  • Sounds like a good Madonna.

  • @fraserclubbx There is so much wrong with that statement! :) lol

  • I love finding bans like this. So under rated. But its nice to keep it a secret from the mainstream. A hidden gem. Love this band!!!

  • @roxkroxsox it's a one-man band dude! When I discovered that, somehow it made the music even better!

  • I;ve listened to this song about 50 times already and still get goosebumps everytime I hear this song. Beautiful lyrics and melody. Go GOTYE!

  • NEW FAVOURITE ARTISTTTT

  • @ebedgert

    I totally agree, this guy is my new favourite ARTIST!

  • I'm in nothern Ontario Canada and decided to check this guy out, am I ever glad I did. Great lyrics and melody everything couldn't be put together better! If there is such a thing as a music industry they better pick up on this guy cause he's gonna own the charts! Go GOTYE!

  • Can feel some Peter Gabriel and Sting! This guy is AWESOME!

  • so lyrical - can feel some Kate Bush in here big time

  • Wow, great lyricist. Loving his songs. Very close to the heart.

  • @ebedgert soon.

  • @ebedgert Because the Music Industry isn't interested in Music. It's interested in Money.

  • @SoapClawtooth Sad world!

  • This guys virtually unheard of in Ireland too. That'll change very soon I bet. 'Somebody that I used to know' is starting to be played on some radio stations. He'll be number one, if there's any justice.

  • @eamonreillydotcom is it? I haven't heard it on any.. thank god to be honest. I really don't wanna hear it every 15 minutes, it'll ruin it. I hate hearing the same shit over and over unles I've intentionally played it over and over :(

  • @ElectroSpex on the other hand it'd be a big change to something original on the radio. Jessie J's 'domino' sounds exactly like 'Last Friday night' by Kate Perry. Music is so interchangable today. everyone sounds the same.

  • Replay!!!!

    

  • @ebedgert well because he does not have a very good advertising company..perhaps

  • WOW. Reminds me of a younger Peter Gabrial or maybe Phil Collins....all in all it's still Gotye.

  • @ebedgert Cause all the songs that end up being #1 in America are songs about being in the club or getting money, well besides Adele.

  • WOW.

  • @ebedgert 'Cause he's not talking about his "Disco Stick", his "Super Bass" or alcool, moneyr, drugs...

    This should deffinetely be #1 but hey! Who are we to decide...

  • I can't wait to buy this album! It comes out in the states on Jan 31, and then you will hear a lot more of him here.

  • Gotye, thank you! :*

  • Why is this not blasted on every radio station in the states! how long has this album been out?

  • @jessiflagg less than a year, during summer I think

  • <3 ♫ WOW <3 ♫

  • this song makes me want to cry

  • how come i'm just hearing this now?

  • And I could not love

    Cause I could not love myself

    Never good enough, no

    That was all I'd tell myself

    And I was not well

    But I could not help myself

    I was giving...up on living

  • Note to the London Olympic Committee: let Gotye perform at the opening/closing ceremony of London 2012. He will have the world at his feet.

  • He knows my soul.

  • Incredible. saddness, hope and happiness all in one. Thank you for creating such a beautiful and real song

  • It's so cool how he recorded this, and with the autoharp, Genius

    so cool!!

    

  • keep it up man.. ;)

  • omg I'm in love with this song.

  • I love to listening your music!

  • Real Good music!!!

  • I would like to thank my brother for helping me find my way to such great music like Wally's.

    «3

  • Great song to bring you out of the winter doldrums.

  • When he went up high for the first time I just about fell out of my chair while fangirling

  • BEST SONG EVER I CAN NOT EXPLAIN HOW GOOD IT IS?

    

  • @crazyafroman123 YEAH I KNOW RIGHT?

  • what a beautiful voice...

  • 4 guys were'nt safe..

    ♥'

  • Gotye through your beautiful music, you have described my recent life. thank you for creating this soul touching song. xxx

  • It's so beautiful

  • The single doesn't need a video, because music is telling the story ... <3

  • Gotye, I... I think I love you. Seriously though, thank you for real art. My faith in humanity is restored, lol.

  • okay, okay, everyone just get up and dace/sing your heart out to this song when nobody's watching. Makes you feel amazing and re-energised:D

  • Why heartbreaking? I was depressive for more than 2 years, now I'm well. And my soul is singing this song.

  • never heard of him before Somebody That I Used To Know. Now I have listened to about 10 Gotye's videos and I already love at least 6. This guy is amazing, my biggest discovery in 2011 made on...27/12/2011

  • I do believe this can mend broken hearts

  • Love this song

  • Verdammt... ist das Album cool!

    Von vorne bis hinten Kunst pur!

    Seine Videos sind auch der Hammer!

  • what a vocal range!

  • This Album will be the x-mas present for my 4y old year old daughter this year.

  • how can I purchase this album? I'm based in Dubai/UAE.

    thanks for help

  • I just discovered Gotye's music tonight and man every fucking song I heard so far is fucking amazing in my Gordon Ramsay voice.

  • she reminds me of Frou Fou abit..

  • This song reminds me of...i dunno. Kinda a nostalgic song. It's making me like: GET UP! DO SOMETHING! xD

    Btw:

    It's sad why people are hating on gaga and etc. I mean, what gaga's been doing recently is not what she did before. The new stuff indeed doesn't cut it (with 2 or 3 exceptions), just like her new attitude.I like Gotye AND gaga.They're great artists with different styles, but one of them is doing splendid and the other one...has gotten lost a little.I hope that one finds the way back. 8-)

  • @ILoveLLawlietxD Gaga is a media puppet. She is not talented. Go away.

  • Comment removed

  • @ILoveLLawlietxD What talent? Well, I'm a fantastic lay, I can make anyone smile, if I want to, and I've got a fantastic singing voice.

    More importantly, I'm me. I don't do what makes other people happy, I do what makes me happy, and expresses my own personal opinions.

    Unlike your little 'idol' Gaga. Seriously, I'm all for everyone having their own personal musical tastes, but Gaga should not exist. At all.

  • @diddleo While ignoring your unbelievably stupid answer i gotta say: Pathetic at ALL points.

    We all see what your problem is: Gaga's famous and you're NOT. She can sing, you NOT. She's a genius in all points in which you are obviously NOT. And, finally: She's a WOMAN and fucking BETTER than you'll ever be and THAT's the major thing you can't take at ALL. Plus, she has a boyfriend and your boyfriends name is PORN, loser. Kiss my balmy FEMALE ass,retard & cut your microscopic wiener off.

  • @diddleo You suck. Get out of the commentin area of this great song.

  • @diddleo "blahblahblahblahblahblahblah, coming out your mouth", haha, it's my opinion about gaga in relation to a douchebag like you buddy, the typical words from a loser! only losers tell people to kill themselves. So young and so bitter...sheesh. I feel sorry for you.

    And even more if you consider the fact that it's very easy to have a bigger penis than a girl, so your statement about your wiener didn't leave a big impression to me, you tried hard but....pffff lol 8DD

  • @diddleo Asshole .l.

  • @TheHornetzBand Thanks bro.

  • THE WORLDS MOST TALENTED SINGER! <3

  • CANT STOP LISTENING2THIS!#HAPPYDAYS X CHEERS WALLYBURGER HEEHEE
