  • Comment removed

  • "Yes" :)

  • Heart Like A Sock.... : D

  • @SuperElliegoulding  I thought she said "socket". :)

  • My big brothers name is John. He introduced the song to me a few years back to me. He promised me that he'll let me play this at his wedding.

  • This had to grow on me...

  • boooooo!

  • i was just listening to this sing compared to her newer music and her voice her sounds so much deeper and rich. i never noticed until after listening the strange mercy tracks. those songs are great, but this song is amazing.

  • looooove this song, the first 32 seconds are perfection, annie clark's voice is, as always, flawless, and, my personal favorite, the hand claps that build steadily throughout are just plain splendid.

  • Girlfriend just sent me this song... My name's John. My night has been made.

  • I'm trying to figure out what she is meaning by this song... What do you rest of you think?

  • She's freakin' amazing.

  • my name is jon.

  • Beautiful!!!

  • early in May

  • @Snymandible august tho :)

  • My name is John. My girlfriend used to let me hear this song, as if it was her own song and words. And we would fall asleep in tranquil peace. Now, she left me. Cheated on my back. Listening to this song reminds me of her, and questions of why she betrayed my love and trust. Listening to this song as my tears drop, makes me realize I'm still in love with her, and part of me always will.

  • @emologue93

    I know you how feel, buddy. So ur not the only one :(

  • @emologue93 forget the cheating bitch.

  • @emologue93 I'd love to tell you you could forget her. I really would.

    But you'll always remember, and next time you'll know. You'll see the signs, know the kind of person. And you can leave her before she can break your heart. Maybe there won't even be a next time. Maybe you'll find better girls who won't resort to that.

  • @emologue93 Do yourself a favor, and never listen to this song ever again.

  • "Let's do what Mary and Joseph did - without the kid"............ lmao....... Annie is incredible.

  • god this reminds me of early 2008

  • I'm having one of those moments where I can't stop listening to this song.

  • This is beautiful!!!

  • something tells me it takes more than just being named john to meet her requirements for a lifelong commitment

  • so beautiful<3

  • she sounds so much prettier live. /:

  • my middle name is John. that counts right?

  • Brilliant song!! If you like this check out the song "You" by danish act INOUWEE

  • Marry me song so super cool

    :))

  • pure artistry!

  • aq moaweret

  • Please need to stop saying "My name is John"! because clearly, Annie's talking to me :)

  • Can I please be John?

    I'm a girl... but she is just so beautiful.

  • <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

  • My name is Marvin and idgaf if ur name is John. What? U think ur cool as shit now cuz ur name is John? It's jus a fckn song. Gosh.

  • @K1X310 are you on your man period? o.O

    Or just really jealous. lawl

  • this is not a romantic song...I would never marry with someone who would sing me this (not even if my name was John).

    great song though, really amazing...just not a romantic one :)

    (which i dig :p)

  • 11 people are mad because their name isn't John.XD

  • 11 people are mad that their name isn't john..

  • @LainyMichelle

    1 person thinks you need to be a little more original

  • @MenteDeChristo I hate those comments too. Thank You!

  • awwwwwwwwwwwww first time i hear this song and I'm in love!!!!

  • my name is legit john therefore it's official

  • Sometimes i wish i hadnt let you go john...especially when i see how happy you are with her.

  • If only things would have worked out...I would have learned and preformed this for you, Jon :/

  • wait wait.. do what mary and joseph did without the kid? you mean not have sex? that marriage sure will last long...

  • @joebob998 she means have the sex without Jesus.

    It's an allusion to the bible....and it's humorous.

  • my name is john :D... damn nevermind... D:

  • A happier life may be lived if you don't concern yourself with the things in life you detest, regardless of what they may be. I do not like Bieber, therefore I never think of him or speak of him.

    You don't need to compare Annie to these people. We all know she is of much greater talent. So relax, you guys need to stop stressing over the lacking quality of the mainstream musicians. Just chill out, sit back, and enjoy Annie's beautiful music. :)

  • Hella hipsters commenting here, mainstream this, mainstream that. Ok guys we get it, pop music is mediocre. Leave Annie Clark out of it, you pretentious pricks.

  • @countchunkula And you now sound like a hipster.

  • @ThrowThatJunkIn Damn the stereotypes and genres. It's ruining youtube.

  • BOOBS.

  • She's so wise and creative, it amazes me.She's a different kind of human.

  • Annie, I saw you live once at the Middle East in Boston and I loved you so much. Bless you.

  • I wanna meet a John just so I can sing this to him. (:

  • A hah, Arrested Development.

  • wow this song is like my song! i know a boy named John that i super duperly like

  • I'm going to change my name to John

  • @aroryboreallen My name's John :D

  • @aroryboreallen my name is John! My girlfriend told me to look up Marry me, but I didn't know she meant the Train version so this FREAKED me out, like as if she were asking me to Marry her... I was like "Ummm... tooo soon!!

  • Marry me John..Marry me John I'll be so good to you. You won't realize I'm gone <3

  • We'll do what married people do (without the kids)

    hahaha bravo Annie!

  • The song freezes me....:)

  • beautiful

  • hey this sonq is decent

    prt is sayin like...she want to make love to him so marry her that

  • This woman is a musical genius! I love her so much. This song would have perfect for Dear John which, by the way, was a very good movie!

  • Comment removed

  • cant say anything but trés bien!

  • ahhhh i love this song! it just hits that place in my heart that i feel with a certain someone :)

  • Linda música... escutei e amei... uma pessoa muito especial me mandou ela... obrigado!

  • I saw her when she supported Grizzly Bear. She was brilliant, and she did a duet wih Daniel Rossen too!

  • What underrated musicianship. Mainstream entertainment is vapid, shallow, and unimaginitive. Even Rolling Stone (purveyor of counter-culture and artistry that it is...hahaha) thinks that Jay-Z's "99 Problems" is the 2nd best song of the decade. I have no problem with Jay-Z, but let's be real here... this industry has a lot more than 99 problems if that song is considered the highest of the high-calibur.

  • @ThrowThatJunkIn You couldn' be any more honest...much of mainstream today is the reason for the underrated statuses of the underrated musicans who truly deserve HELL OF A LOT MORE recognition, than say, the Biebers, Britneys, and Jonases of this world! :)

  • @ThrowThatJunkIn

    Most cogent comment I've read on YT in months. Your commentary is spot-on! That"industry" as you put is full of knuckle-draggers, that wouldn't know real talent if it jumped up and bit them on the @ss!

    Rolling Stone is nothing but corporate whores wrapped in an alternative rags veneer. They wouldn't know talent if they took it in the chops either! N8

  • @ThrowThatJunkIn

    Rolling stone also had kurt kobain in its top 10 guitarists dont pay attention to them

  • @ThrowThatJunkIn it's either underpaid or overrated. and if you lived in the most dangerous projects in brooklyn, I'm pretty sure you will choose overrated. lol

  • @ThrowThatJunkIn SHUPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP CAMPBELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

  • @ThrowThatJunkIn 99 problems obviously speaks to more people. In your top songs of the decade it may not be in there but then again your a white guy who hasnt gone through what he had. More people like his music and theres nothing wrong with that. St. vincent and Jayz shouldnt even be in comparison, one sold crack for money the other grad from highschool and went on to college

  • SHE IS AMAZING!!!

  • She and Andrew Bird did this as a duet on tour-beautiful!

  • it was great wasnt it?

  • I agree! So gorgeous!

  • That was an incredible show, I loved how well she and Bird played together!

  • lucky!!

  • @lilygirl2400

    did they really?! i bet that was awesome, andrew bird is my all-time favorite musician!

  • This is amazing!!

  • Her voice is beautiful!

  • Anyone listened to this and Laura Nyro's "Wedding Bell Blues" together?

  • Yes! Love those two songs together =)

  • Comment removed

  • she is so so so so so so good.

    my hero!

  • I really like this song more when it's just Annie on stage by herself. It's such an intimate song. Everything else seems to distract.

  • "let's do what mary and joseph did...without the kid"

    LMAO

    omg she's so awesome - I just saw her at Bimbo 365 in SF

  • I'll be so good to you,St.Vincent!!!

  • i'll be better to you tape ;)

  • Question: has anyone heard anything about who/what this song is about? I guess the obvious answer is it's about her, and maybe her part-time thinking on the subject. Still I feel like there might be some kind of literary reference in there, and I read some people saying on another website it's about a character on Arrested Development, which I haven't watched much, so I was just wondering if anyone had any substantial explanations to offer.

  • For these five minutes, I wish my name were John.

  • Wow, I just started listening to her tunes and she's super talented...and...well...Hot!!!

  • i love you

  • I love you to

  • i love this song. i cried when i first heard it...

  • Marry Me, St. Vincent!!!!

  • its just u

  • Next time I will make a video with THREE SLIDES(!!!) just to make it up to you.

  • Hahahaha, your response is priceless! <3

  • Apparently this guy doesn't actually like music

  • And has severe ADHD problems.

  • i like it with just one slide. =).

    AWESOME song.

  • hahaha three slides:P

    i also think the music is far more important then a slideshow.

    and i have adhd but his reaction looks more like gilles de la tourette, but then in a typing form :\

    but personally i think its sarcastic due to that back 'n forth, it did make me laugh, i'm sorry.

  • video no longer available? or is it just me?

  • Just you

  • this rocks

    shes really good

  • i love this.
