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.
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 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.
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.
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.
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 :/
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...
@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.
@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~
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
@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
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??
@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.
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.
