  • I want my boyfriend to write me a song like that...or just play this for me. I adore you, Hank, and this is a completely true video. I love Nerd Fighter love.

  • can we have the chords

  • The Katherine is a very lucky girl. ^^

  • I am gonna sing this for my girlfriend... as soon as I find her.

  • @FreeHugsAndPeeps same thing bro

  • AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

  • i love how he wrote this 2 his wife this is soo cute and yes a little dorky but thats what makes me love it more. i wish a guy would write a song for me..... but that probally will never happen *sigh* oh well

  • I wish I was the Katherine!

  • CHORD CHART/TABS NOW PLZ

  • does anyone know the chords to this song?

  • Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door... XD

  • And this is why nerd guys are fantastic!

  • John: "Oh shit. The bar just got raised really high...."

  • Hank, stop making me feel emotions. I'm being squashed under all the feels...

  • The girl i like calls me Freak (nicly) or Sweets we're best friends

  • Booteeful (:

    I immediately saw Galapagos by Kurt Vonnegut on your book shelf. :P

  • If all guys were like Hank and John, the world would be a perfect place

  • Hank it's songs like this that make me want you to do an acoustic album.

  • I know the lyrics to this song just fine, but I keep messing up by singing Justin Beaver :/

  • Like if you prefer this to the CD version :3

  • @CalJorvik They're very similar.

  • @BenGriffithsReviews He sings this one better :) and when he says I love you baby at the end... so good :3

  • this song is like something bare naked ladies or counting crows would sing like mr jones or something its cool

  • Is it wrong that this song makes me want to hug you?

  • @DubbleRaynebow No, it's not wrong...

  • @DubbleRaynebow not at all :)

  • ... I love this so much you dont even know <3

  • "I'm obviously not a big fan of hyperbole" is one of the funniest lines you've ever written.

  • This was sooioo cute!! Does anyone else have a huge crush on him? Othr than me I mean... :3

  • :o

    This video was posted on my birthday!

  • That so was not corny. It was ADORABLE! <3

  • no its creepy O_o

  • my boyfriend kinda looks like hank.

  • I approve of the fact that you pwn noobs instead of killing fascist. Im not a fascist, but im kind of against killing them.

  • I adore this song, but I can't help but feel that the part ending 'and I'm obviously not a big fan of hyperbole' would fit better right at the very end.

  • Sounds kinda like The Mountain Goats

  • @Tattas999

    Thats what I thouuughtt toooo!!!

  • One of Hanks best song IMHO

  • I think this is probably one of the best songs ever.

    Guys: Instant way to win my heart? Freaking sing this song.

  • I loove this song! Can't stop replaying it!

  • I'm buying your CD, mister! Well, after the second when I get my check. :)

  • As an adult female, I love love love love this song :)

  • I cried the first time I listened to this song.

  • I find it kinda of wierd but also kind of awesome that my name is Katherine and my sister's name is Sarah. I just hope that I find my Hank someday and that my sister finds her John.

  • i think i just cried

  • Hm.... I posted this on FB amd the girl I have a crush on liked it....

  • That's not corny Hank, it's an accurate observation :-)

  • keep coming back to this 

  • I just purchased this from iTunes. I love it!

  • It actually reminds me of the Mountaingoats. It's nice. Love the Mountaingoats.

  • @Lightavion Apparently not enough to know they put a space in their name. The Mountain Goats.

  • @krinaJ I have yet to come across a case in which that mattered. But still, thank you for pointing that out. Do you feel smart? You should.

  • Hank, you're amazing. This is really touching. Despite it not being your "usual fare", it's a wonderful song because you've got a lot behind these lyrics :3 Bravo, sir.

    I no longer have to think when people inquire as to who my favorite musician is - the answer is always immediately "Hank Green".

  • Hank, I just listened to the Ellen Hardcastle version of this, and you music has now officially made me cry. You know how sometimes you find a song that describes the mess in your head so perfectly, all of its awesome leaks out of your eyes? Yeah, that just happened. You never FTBA, Hank.

  • If this song was ever dedicated to me, panties. would. drop.

  • I just realized, this song about Helen Hunt.

  • I'll be with her until the end of time, as long as time ends before one of us dies. XD That was both hilarious and beautiful.

  • And melty melty goes my heart...

  • So, um...I may have cried a little bit. Especially at "Love is hard and love is messy

    And it can hurt worse than fire And sometimes it makes you want to tear down a

    building with your bare hands"

  • @k2ismyhomedog

    whats OTP

  • I'm fifteen. This song expresses perfectly all I've ever wanted in love. I know now that is exactly why I have never dated, had a boyfriend, or been kissed.

    Because I am willing to wait for something that will last.

  • @thealaskablue That isn't to say you shouldn't "date." It's fine for you to go on double dates, et cetera, without the heartbreak of a steady relationship. Youth is a time to find what you want from him/her as far as traits go. It's hard to do that if you don't experiment with creating new friendships.

  • @thealaskablue dont worry i get you this im 15 and girl has my undevoted attention forever and she pushes me away and it sucks but you know patience is a virtue :/

  • This is adorable. I want one...

  • When I listen to this song I feel like I should cry because It reminds me of my crush and me. I see him with other girls all the time and it makes me want to...

    TEAR DOWN A BUILDING WITH MY BEAR HANDS!!!!!!

    I wish he would like me

  • @24nerdfighter That guy probably doesn't know what he's missing. Nerd girls make the BEST girlfriends! If he's already got a girlfriend, then I'm sorry, but if he hasn't, and he's anything like me, then he probably likes you, but is just too nervous to ask you out. That's what I was like before I asked my current girlfriend out. In terms of getting his attention, I'm sorry but I have no advice.

  • So that song in the end is why I started watching HankGames. And that in turn is how I got back into video games.

    Thank you. :)

  • This is lovely and quirky!

  • It took him long enough to make a song for the Katherine. XD

  • @CarolineandEmmaShow Well Hank has written songs for her before. Or at least with an implied reference. Like "It all makes sense at the end" and "Luck of My Life"... Presumably "Nerd Gurl" but that one was delightfuly vulgar~

  • @CarolineandEmmaShow what about luck of my life?

  • Great Short Film

  • you say p4a and i think you want me to pee for amy or possibly amanda

  • This song made me want to write songs.

  • It's 2:30 am, and I can't sleep because I've been having a panic attack for a couple of hours. This song made me cry and made me way less anxious and I really really need it to be on your next album.

    Thanks

  • From the perspective of a 17 year married 40 year old, my answer to the reason we call each other boy and girl is that it takes us back to the days when we were impossibly young and in love, and reminds of who we were and what we've experienced together.

  • @mamathukpa Well put my friend.

  • this reminds me why love exists strangely.. :)

  • I love this man (no homo, okay maybe a little) :)

  • lol Hank, I'm pretty sure nerds like the corny stuff :)

    And I find it hilarious that you made fun of Justn Bieber :P

    You're great :)))

  • Hank + Katherine

    John + Sarah

    <3

  • this is absolutely the #1 reason i'm excited for hanks new album. definitely.

  • Oh please, please, PLEASE put this on your next album!:D

  • This is just awesome. Now I need to learn how to play guitar so I can one day sing this to the adult female that I love.

  • SO true for so many people

  • Who calls their girlfriend shawty anyway?

  • @Wrash16 Who calls their girlfriend 'boy'? Get your priorities straight.

  • The most realistic love song I've ever heard. Mature & based in reality. The day to love choices b/c it ain't easy but it is worth the effort.

  • Your captions are a little off with their timing.

  • awwww

  • hmmm, is you're name awesome-cause im pretty sure that's what you are.

  • Dear Hank,

    Please put this song on iTunes so I can download it and put it on a CD for my boyfriend. OR, better yet, write a song called Adult Male so it seems a little less creepy.

    Kthx,

    Hannah

  • I LOVE YOU BABY!

  • very american pie-the song ish.....nice =)

  • dawwwwwww

  • Chords?

  • Awwww that was realistically romantic... and hilarious.

  • FINALLY a realistic song about love that doesnt make me roll my eyes ever as its being played?!

    oh joyous day : )

  • Almost made me cry. This is adorable. :D

  • "But it also happens to be

    the best thing that's ever happened to me

    And I'm obviously not a big fan of hyperbole."

    That part killed me. I laughed on and off for about ten minutes. xD

  • So, I'm a little late watching this video, but that was adorable, and I loved it.

  • what? people usually don't want to tear down a building with the bare hands? i am baffled.

  • Very Mountain Goats. I like it :)

    In fact, I missed this video, so when you played it in the live show after the P4A winners were announced, I thought it WAS a Mountain Goats song I hadn't heard.

  • justin bieber line offends me.

    -nerdfighter of three years and resident nerdfighter "belieber"

    (but the song was great:D)

  • totally gonna learn this song! don't have an adult female to sing it to yet, but when i do, i'll have this song for her :)

  • Female is an adjective, not a noun, when talking about people.

  • The lyrics are all messed up.

  • that was adorable!

  • REALLY bad at the beginning, but REALLY good after 1 minute

  • I refuse to date anyone who calls me "baby" or the like. Though I don't know why everyone is making a big deal about "female" vs. "woman", because I've heard the word "woman" one too many times in a negative context, so it's not much different.

  • stick to nerdy songs plz.

  • Love is hard and love is messy

    And it can hurt worse than fire And sometimes it makes you want to tear down a

    building with your bare hands

    ^ HAHA, epic :)

  • and this is why i'm a nerd.

  • love makes you want to tear down a building with your bare hands, then that means hate makes you actually tear down a building, science to prove so, the hulk.

  • Darn you, Hank! Now I have remarkably higher standards than I did before.

  • well, it's a fantastic song :) But I don't think love hurts. Rejection hurts. Not knowing hurts. Wanting to be loved but not knowing how hurts. But love is the only thing that can make us forget the pain and lonliness of the world and make us feel wonderful again. Also, it wasn't corny. I loved it :)

  • @kirshichan Me and my friend were on the floor going insane because of the DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE STAB STAB! song in the credits but we were stuck to the chair watching the song :)) Random moment!

  • @SeverusSnapeOrSev my brother an I mae up a version of katy perry's i kissed a girl whil eplaying modern warfare. it was fantastic

  • It wasn't too corny! It was sweet, and real.

  • how about a retarded teenaged boy?

  • would rather not see lip synch videos.

  • @queenmumsie what makes you say that?

  • next p4a you should raffle off the machine that pwns n00bs

  • Is this song about Helen Hunt?

  • @sk8rdman uhh his wife

  • lol wait it was for his wife

  • Hank, you're sweet. Your favorite adult female knows that.

  • That was amazing. Soooooooooooo amazing.

  • Reminds me at first of Charlie McDonnell

  • This is my new favorite song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • this was lovely. katherine is lucky. as are you. :)

  • you have a galapagos book! guess where i am from? ja! (not exactly galapagos but ecuador, that one country that owns the galapagos).

  • This is such a sweet song!

  • The song is sweet!

  • so...who IS this adult female exactly?

  • @DebbieHemlock Katherine Green ofcourse ...

  • @SoulLintu Or Helen Hunt. But ,yeah, most likely Katherine. :]

  • @LaughLikeNoTomorrow If I ever find out this song is about Helen Hunt and not The Katherine, I will personally go to Montana and sucker punch Hank in the face. ;P

  • Hai Hai! I really love this as... love song. Just wondering if you / anyone could throw me the chords for it so I can share the love :) dftba fo sho.

  • I'm now wondering how to convince my fiance to make this our 'first dance' song.....

  • Is it just me or are different countries getting different Featured videos?? I notice my videos Get 90% of its views from Canada, also where I am, and I didn’t see one P4A video on the homepage.. I just went and watched most of them on my own.. Can somebody explain this??

  • take THAT bieber -_-

  • @2010Niamh don't even compare them!

  • @supertheaedithman I'm not comparing

  • @2010Niamh well, by saying that you are implying that hank has just "beaten" Justin in some way. they are not even in the same leauge. but I do agree with you premises, no doubt.

  • @2010Niamh I would just rather not read his name more than necessary. Could we, of all people, please change topics? :)

  • i think that was your best song in a good while, hank.

  • Awww.

  • This song describes how I feel about Pet Names :D

  • This is definitely the most pragmatic song I've heard in a while!

  • this song is about love, but of not about what what we think about love especially if we are justin beiber

    haha

  • This song is really cute, it's just that the whole time I wondered why you didn't say Woman....

  • @SaramisKismet ok go ahead and call an adult female "woman" it is EXTREMELY condescending

  • seriously you should make a CD...

  • My favorite love song EVAR!

  • This song makes me think of Loudon Wainwright III.

  • I think that I must request the chords.

  • that's probably the most realistic love song that i've ever heard.

  • lol yes! finally song wendsday was on my birthday!!! (by the way) YOU JUST LOST THE GAME!!!!!

  • ugh this song made me cry EVERY VLOGBROTHERS VIDEO IS MAKING ME CRY of joy and happiness and love not sadness <3

  • justin bieber lover and nerd fighter? possible :) <3 song=awesome

  • lol - It's wierd coming from "I just Had Sex" to this
