Art blog 3 ~ Jeffrey Lewis; acid song

[squidfish007]

i had literally almost the same exact trip as the one he's singing about. it sucked so much

[olliederpk]

when im tripping i deff dont want something making me think about pulsing aliens, falling off a roof, the gates of heaven, punching a cat in the head, and not to think to deep into my soul and find a hideous hole of hatred stupidness of myself. pretty fucked up. this is a great song but deffenitly not a song i want to trip too

[FoldedTapestry]

this seems like a fucking terrible song to trip to for anyone who is intelligent at all.

[PaulThe123]

@zacharytheknight  nooooooo

[joeyleotard]

ha-ha! Spot on! xxxxx

[plackonteeth]

"He punched a cat in the head" ROFL! Cheekychen shows a dog XD

[McExellent223]

[diceh2]

We don't want no LSD tonight!

[savsci87]

@charlieOdonovan i'd keep an eye on that god complex

[sarahlevine]

fuck that shitty advertisement

[pushyoureyesin]

I can't find torrents for this song anywhere. Or any of the other ones I like.

[ben2sk8]

@pushyoureyesin i used youtube to mp3 and bee mp3 :)

[clashcitywannabe]

@ben2sk8 shhhh, those are a secret :P



[antiscissors]

it's from the album "it's the one's who've cracked that the light shines through" he's a great artist and has emotions where popular music is lacking

[intenzez]

@antiscissors That's No LSD Tonight. The Last Time I Did Acid I Went Insane was the title track of the forementioned album.

[beniamin12]

stunning and truth!Thanks for sharing!!!

[CartomartaKenDoll]

good editing

I love the song

but I heard the cover

first and I'm In love with It 

[PaulThe123]

man your sshoes are awsome

[pushyoureyesin]

Word to this video.

[guyintune]

Uuunwiiinding

[sXeish]

Acid is ready for you but are you ready for it.

This song obviously proves your weren't mentally ready to trip on such a powerful psychedelic.

[reeferlove3]

i had great experiences on lsd until i used it for the wrong reason..just for the hell of it when i wasn't happy..i wasn't depressed either..just no feeling at all, that time was exactly like the seventh rule...never again though after that

[BritneyJean123]

I think I just tripped to outerspace, over the moon, past the sun, to the other side of the galaxy, out of our galaxy, into some weird parralel universe where everything was opposite of us except for the fact that we looked exactly like them and they act like the opposite us so whatever you think they think the opposite of us and then for some reason when they turn 30 they all turn into mutant sea creechers and traveled to our universe and ate their twin and then lived on our planet, and back.

[creatyourownreality]

the cake!!!! holy shit!!!

Jeffrey Lewis doesn't do drugs, case in point, his song "No LSD Tonight"

[MrHappyfuntimeskayak]

@GetTimmyOut84 ye, he just did acid this one time

[guyintune]

@GetTimmyOut84 who Knows;)

[askwhy93]

last time I did acid.. i really do think i went insane. i did 2 hits everyother day. for about a week im only 17.. and now everything feels like a dream. not trying to seem like im some junkie.. or some major tripper. im not. just did. idk. had to get it off my chest. maybe someone else feels the same way as me and will like this

[warp455]

@askwhy93 LSD is a drug. Drugs have a high capacity to change people.

[Skwurlman]

@askwhy93

Yeah man, I know what you mean. It's called depersonalization. It'll go over but it takes months sometimes. I got it after getting panic attacks and shit. I'd say research it a little, don't pay too much attention to it and it'll slowly fade.

[Pawdy]

what are those green centered cake things?

[DearBobDylan]

Let me tell you something! YOU'RE MY INSPIRATION! I have songs I am writing and art I'm drawing.... You're my inspiration to start being creative again.

Oh, by the way, DON'T DO DRUGS. :)

[DearBobDylan]

This is great!!!!!!!!!!!

[DearBobDylan]

Interesting video and song. I love the guitar!!

[idriinkP]

DO NOT wach this shit on acid. or especially deemsters. theres some cool things but over all, it presents a very bad message... talking about insanity and the deep dark hole in your soul... fuck man thats nowhere you want to go when your as fucked up as i was watching this.

[magicalwrath]

the meaning of life is to smoke weed erday!

[Nikolai070706]

21 people had bad trips and don't know what the meaning of life is.

[avitalthealien]

I fucking love this.

And acid.

[LochnessLakeMonster]

OH SHIT FLASHBACK!!!

[kayway9]

brilliant song :)

[lozenge76]

Nice combination of stopmotion and live.

[51516]

This song is about michele Bachmanns scary little hidden moments. Those tiny private dreams that harbour all our this and that and lil in betweenz.

[davidvc04]

Pretty amazing stuff.

[chaisurprise]

Saw Jeffery Lewis Live in Philly. . . . . Awesome Show !

[Zonarama]

BRILLIANT!!

[noreggi]

you know i just happened upon this video like 3 years ago and thought you were jeffrey lewis cuz i didnt know anything about him or his music at the time. its a good damn good thing me and you, and eventually jeffrey lewis were introduced.. i mean the video itself is just great and i wish i had some other adjectives for you but fuck it, just take great and not in some kind of quick way but realize ive been following this video for years thanks to some work you put in.

[AtomicUprising]

your art is very hip

[Carmellito1]

Thanks Jeffrey, it seems i finally understood where ive gone through...

[Ansuz92]

Does anyone else understand what he means by NOTHINGNESS NOTHINGNESS NOTHINGNESS... Fuck I hated the nightS when I found that. Sadly it was much more then one.

[rockosMO]

@Ansuz92 dont think too much of yourself

[dxmfever]

I relate so much to this song it is almost scary. But not quite there.

[hokeypanty]

Sounds like a demented violent femmes....lol

How much are the shoes????? tee hee hee

[11ames11]

[tattooedangel88]

[ARTYANANDRE]

[JacobTLove]

I like, thanks

[garbagepailkid100]

dude this video is the shit man

peace

[dragonfitter]

i can honestly say the only drug i never use again is lsd

[lorerax1]

So, the answer to your question is yes. Sometimes we need to decipher where our craving for change comes from.

[Kharne669873]

trippin' to this song? it's great

*.* :D

[OMGitsSeppie]

[SkUmDiCtAtOr]

the singer from this band sounds like the same guy who sings jesus is way cool

[F0nkyNinja]

SCARY

[jwpepperchris1]

those rules are so true xD

[CharlieODonovan]

acid = seeing things how they really are

[c64katakis]

@CharlieODonovan

acid = visualsing 5.-11. dimension

[c64katakis]

@CharlieODonovan

acid = watching into the 5. ; 6. ; etc. dimension

[c64katakis]

@CharlieODonovan acid = watching into the 5. ; 6. ; etc. dimension

[zackpennachi]

@CharlieODonovan acid = seeing your subconsciousness's view of it's perceived "reality". What is reality anyways? Nobody knows

[demonsoul2]

@CharlieODonovan Nah its more like entering the matrix of your brain but while finding your center in the field of knowledge that is you. Or you just trip ballssssssssssssssss

[macadamray]

ZANDER!!!!!! tripple x the film / vin diesel was my acid insperation, legend stuff, i love it!!!!

[mbinezshifty]

lmao that was awsome, you should sing it to some dark dubstep

[machinist18]

what a great song .haaaa, reminds of the violent femmes..

[xrayogirlpassinggas]

last time I did acid, (4 years ago) I was jerking my liquid light projector as if I was driving a car singing "Go speedracer, GO!" while jamming out to the butthole surfers.Later my boyfriend and I put a thin knit sheet up in the corner of the room, projected the liquid light onto the sheet. It was our "tree house" it was really cool b/c the light went thru the knit and it was like binary code on our bodies and the wall. Good times! It was a good farwell to acid.

[sikdelphi303]

you just named everything that has happend to me.

kids stay away from this

[rexxracer2000]

Watched it totally sober...........when it was over I felt like I was coming down...........LMAO

Great song!

[myked]

great video amazing song 5 stares four ewe

[Kulturseite]

totaly stoned greetings from berlin - acid is my folk. amazing, to hear the tunes from the stereo and see it same time in youtube. Mr. Lewis - when will you come to Berlin again, folks like me need you to see to feel happy! beeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.............­...

[ahoyshelahh]

too true

[dylanmarly]

KIFF. That was Fokin Epic. Nice One.

[Bucc45]

nice shoes mate

[SDMagicMan]

nice song and video!  5 stars!

[keziahisgood]

i'm sorry angus :/ x

[Bluesman74460]

If that was you singing and playing guitar I would say you are onto something huge with that . Paintings look a bit rough shoes were cool . make sure the shoes have a sealer on them . keep taking the acid too love it !Very creative. I do art and blues harmonica

[mishellymonster]

this is fucking fantastic.

[bhall4110]

might I just say that this video has me both in a good place and bad. Scary voice.. but it helps with things... what it doesn't help with however are my rainbows not being able to keep the keys depressed

[captainbollocks]

Great stuff- I've been t

(shame he butchered those Crass song- so wet liberals can listen to them)

[lorerax1]

I heard somewhere on this crazy internet that ppl get stuck in walls b.c your mind has to come up with the stuff to make the walls appear.

not sure what it was, but the thought of that is well gaaahhh?!?!

[LukeTheFlook]

this makes me want to try acid

[SaeriaSuresh]

@LukeTheFlook It's crazy shit.

[madmaninthemirror]

@LukeTheFlook listen to the follow up to this song: We Don't Want No LSD Tonight

[avitalthealien]

@LukeTheFlook do it

[Nikolai070706]

@LukeTheFlook @LukeTheFlook Start off at a single tab, they range from 80-120µg these days. Back in the good ol' days no one really knew how much was in a single tab, but to me a true Hoffman dose is 250µg (1/4mg). Be in a good place, somewhere you are comfortable, have a couple of good CD's/ playlists on hand ready to go, lots of water and good company (i.e. friends that won't fuck with you), best bet is to find someone who's dosed before and ask them to be your tripsitter. FMI erowid.com

[o1LilJan]

@LukeTheFlook good idea!

[sxyschnitzel]

You have no idea the circumstances under which I am watching this video! Most brilliant thing I've ever encountered man.

[transformtheworld]

story of my life man

[jzzj88]

can definately relate! haah great song/lyrics and great video thanks for posting... first i've heard of jeffery lewis but gonna look into him noww

[amyjb]

this song is so nice.

[Psilosoph]

niiiiiiiiice

[KilledByATroll]

acid is a crazy drug no one nos how crazy u can go by this drug it doesnt make sence its hard to belive something can fuck ur brain up so bad

[BrothersOfLate]

yeah it had to be his dad cause his mamma was in my house teaching me the reverse scorpion!

[dresssexyatmyfuneral]

I love Jeff, acid's fucked me up too.

[mebbmebbmibbmibb]

my mom doesnt like your shoes either

i asked her to watch your video

she said you and jeffery lewis need to get a job

[BLUESBASHER01]

Acid is Fun but theres too many doors.

[mebbmebbmibbmibb]

he just ripped off daniel johnston

this is really dumb

hes acting anyway

if you are comfortable with yourself

you will have an okay time

i guess he is gay?

supression hurts

[mebbmebbmibbmibb]

he just ripped off daniel johnston

this is really dumb

hes acting anyway

if you are comfortable with yourself

you will have an okay time

i guess he is gay?

supression hurts

[hyltjand]

just shut up

[mebbmebbmibbmibb]

nope

[15personalities]

This song is way better live. He went on about how each passing moment is like a grain of sand, and they pile up one on top of the other and we are all standing on our each individual towers of sand that are steadily getting higher and higher and higher and higher and when we can no longer balance and we fall we die. It was deep man.

And I'm digging the shoes in this clip!

[thedirtydeltas]

i love it,hahaha "I had a flash that i was gay and got paraniod,sitting on the listening to pink floyd" ahah classic

[LukeTheFlook]

i think if i did acid i would go insane. i think too deeply about things when im sober. i would probably think myself to death.

[lysergicdeez]

and take a listen to "we dont want no lsd tonight" by jeff lewis. he doesn't like acid.

[lysergicdeez]

acid is a two sided coin. there is no meaning, the meaning is to live.

[poopg3]

next time i fry, or smoke sum dmt, im totally watchin this, great sonngg, and arrtt

[rococojade]

Love it love it!! so creative.

[trippygitarz]

Very creative.  Interesting guitar riff you got goin. Check out My video Psychedelic Acoustic/ Tomorrow never Knows. Some Crazy sounds are coming out of the Acoustic guitar

[leilabennight33]

OH, and you should definately watch "Intermisson in the Third Dimension" by Don Hertzfeldt!

[leilabennight33]

This video is ridiculously badass.

[Deathcoptertrick]

i once discovered the meaning of life... couldnt remember in the morning though, something about bones and god, oh well

[ATiredDogsMouth]

Good/bad/good ol' acid.

[Carmellito1]

love it feel it do it

[gracehfung]

moon cake!

[thetruthfulliar]

AWESOME PAINTING!! @ 3:50

[sumomedic]

dumshit, lol u prolly think hallucinations make u see devils and pixies and shit. Ure imagination is a placebo of the real thing!

[sumomedic]

Holy fucking crap man, Most of these people commenting on this video dont actually know what your talking about. Dude i understand, i have been there, i have seen and experienced all that u have and i have seen no better interpretation of what acid is really like. I thought i found the meaning of life 2 hehe, ure a good lad man. One more question man, after ure trip did ure hallucination persist, and have u heard of HPPD?

[lysergicdeez]

HPPD, its like life is a flashback. Still there brother.

[ragainstmach03]

i do enjoy jeffrey lewis. and this video does the song so much justice. wonderful interpretation.

[katiak74]

I'm your fan!

Excellent work!

Magnific song!

KK

[loveupskirts]

also i love thisart, as a student myself i know how hard being creative can be. and this art is wonderfull. if i had any money id buy it.

[loveupskirts]

i love jeffrey lewis, i cannot beleive he is not super famous.

[HannahPinay]

awesome vid. very nicely done. :]

[allinwith2s]

great art the song isnt so goood after a bit

[Sacredmystic]

Very interesting lyrics some of the verses remind me of a bout I had with depression which helped me understand life's meaning a little better. Thanks for the post 5/5*

Peace

[backwoodsmister]

Greatness. Whig on...

[claydude3001]

where did you get the white shoes????

[cheekychen]

online.. just google search plimsoles.. you can get them on ebay too

[darlingdeviant13]

mushrooms have the same rules you know...

[LushyLouTheLesbian]

everyone that's done acid has been wiggled on this song

[cobainfan101]

amazing awesome lyrics

[welwise]

Great video, great song. You did Jeff's song total justice with this piece 5 stars.

[francesca420]

i have knee high white converse that i drew all over :) illustrating on shoes is fun!

[ethancarthy]

The rules are so true lol, always good to have a friend with you:) The last time i took acid i had a great feckin laugh:>

[Celt1114]

that's art? very lame 1 star.

[Sugarartz]

I think you're fabulous.

[any13lse]

you are a great artist! look at those painting and sketches. you could sell lines of those shoes.

[cheekychen]

you're very kind. thanks :]

[Sparklyindigopink]

OMG I love your sense or art! LOL

[scousemouse101]

bang  on mate

Captured tripin down to tha

t

safe

[tallyhojo]

Dude I like the shoes. You should sell them. Cause I would most defineatly buy them

[jessicafarewell]

have you see this on acid?

[cheekychen]

i've never done it

[1LBRTY]

The song reminds me of The Violent Femmes.

Is that a coincidence?

[lalalemon15]

i thoroughly appreciated the juxtaposition between the moving picture, still picture, and stop motion animation. Kudos on film making skilllz haha. Amazing artistry as well.

[lepsyche]

i guess the last time i went insane i did acid.

[unnst]

loved it, that was awesome editing.

[TheJonnyHo]

I think this is the fifth time I've watched this.

What's in the green looking pie?

[cheekychen]

why, thank you! It's a chinese moon cake. tasty gorgeous :D

[TheJonnyHo]

Haha, I read the comments and was also looking to see what a moon cake was. It was kind adding up, but I wasnt sure :-P

Cheers for replying so fast. I've subscribed, and when I get a min I'm well up for watching the rest of your videos.

[kjkkblessed]

⊙⊙" Moon cake ♥♥

[cheekychen]

=yum :]

[wiriness]

his rules are to be followed

[mattiscoolyesiam]

another rule is to have nutella incase anyone gets hungry

[jinnai7]

what one do you reccommend?

I have a copied copy of the one's who've cracekd, and It's convinced my to buy it.

I might buy them all. They arent too expensive. He's not a huge musician, and I think he deserves a bit more.

[jinnai7]

I've watched this video loads just to listen to the song.

His lyrics are awesome.

I'll have to buy some of his albums.

[jules10109]

Woah, tripy vid...ha ha! get it? Tripy? XD...okay, I wont quit my day job. ;p

[angelaladeiro]

GOOD,GOOD

[babafk]
