[shweps5]

I went vego for a week once, it did not last! I did eat tons of dairy though!

[rad13noise]

is there any way i could get your songs for download?

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

there are a couple of originals on my main myspace that are downloadable... the rest are going on an EP. On my second myspace there are covers, it only lets me put up 6 at a time so I try to rotate them.

=)

[AnywhoItsKelsey]

haha I'm a vegetarian and I didn't even know we HAD a World Vegetarian Week! wow.....that's just sad...

[SaraMUSt]

Noise/Sound/Whatever, yes...kinda nice to add it in the end of vlog's. ^_^

"I don't put meat in my sereal"

RoTfLmAo

Now I actually felt like trying THAT out...sounds delicious, don'tya think? XP MMmmm

HiHi

Thanks for the"365tip"!!!^_^

[KrystaandMandyshow]

[philvidler666]

PMSL!!!

[ashleysmashli]

[SWrandomchika15]

[Flaxxseed]

You have beautiful eyes! :)

[LubbyLooLaa]

The knowledge that they have helped people...

Olivia

[BenLoka]

Thanks for doing this mate!!!

I'm only just getting round to seeing the responses :S

Hope it went well! =)

[AydenThropp]

It's really hard to be a veggie for a week. If you can do it, then congratulations. I actually attempted to do it for like four months and I was dying for some meat and I was a Per Se in New York City and ate Braised Duck and threw up because my stomach wasn't used to meat, it was rather unfortunate, mostly because if you ever at at Per Se, the dishes there are like 500 dollars (~250£). Good thing my brother paid! However now that I think about it, he could have donated the money.

[bigissue1111]

rember u cannot eat the world greatst cure for hangover, belly ache, and pretty much everything coz they have animal in:

wait for it

!harrybo!

did i spell that rite, i love em but i can't spell for sh*t.

[commanderchaos123]

wow...after hearing the prize...i realized i just got 0wned o.O

[CometBox]

lol =[ just remember, you helped people :D

and i support vegetarianism, i did this week off, althought i love meat >.>

[lipglooscandy]

sorry its late, but im going to try be veggie!

and tbh, i can't be bothered to get into all the animal beatings, but i agree too :)

get back to me, yeh?

x

[xxmoominxx]

You're honestly my favourite person on youtube and I wish I was your friend =[

[horizonghost]

so how have u found being a veggie for the week? i think it was a gr8 idea for u to try it but i would do cos im a vegetarian! (woo another label) so yer and ' i don't put meat in my cereal'...does ne1? tht wud be weird :P xxx

[anatete1]

can i just say you're really hot? sorry i just had to say it

im sure you are aware of that

[adi87tya]

me 2! and i luv it!

[RainbowBrunette]

I am a vegeatrian! 365 days a year! So yay for me!

[xxslashintiresxx]

Same here :D

Some people think it's hard, but it really isn't...

[allthingscarrot]

weeee,,,great accent hehehehe,,,

[dreamXofXnightmares]

ummm i like tht cup.lots of polka dots.

haha.

♥bree♥

[Runtograce]

the prize thing, you did this smile after it, i was like fuck, cant argue with that!

:O i cant believe calum didnt tell me about this project! i mean, were close! haha. im soo doin it

=]

[mypantsareyellow]

I agree with you. I don't have a problem with people eating meat but I don't agree with how we farm it.

I was a vegan for 2 months which was VERY hard.

I stopped that but continued being a vegetarian for 5 months and then randomly slipped through the cracks on a horrible binge.

Being a vegetarian is actually, surprisingly easy. You more or less crave things simply because you can't have it... and then it begins to feel like a chore. If you don't view it as a chore, it's not hard.

=]

[varinder1]

i like meat love it

[Sssarrahhh]

Ahhh! I love that little clicky noise at the end too!! haha

Well i've been veggie for over a year now, and ive done fine, but really its probably because i cant stand the thought of eating meat but thats just me...

Quorn is... disgusting, quorn chicken is like quorn burgers, the sausages are pretty nice though =] but yeah good luck with it, must be hard to do if youre used to eating meat every day :)

[Epiphanized]

What? you don't put meat in your cereal?

You're one crazy boy.

[TheStallion86]

Dude have you never tried beef and weetabix lol!

[patocp]

How do you get your hair like that? any reply would be appreciated :D

[spyched]

you're very handsome :-)

[oh13yea13baby]

wooooo!!!

[Feenix0Fire]

no meat with your cereal?

You mean to tell me you've never had lucky charms with marshmellow shaped sausages?!

:P

I'm hispanic. We put meat in EVERYTHING! lol (except our cereal :P)

I think i'll try it out though. Hope i can i do it. lol

[jiffypax]

You should try Beef flakes. Mmm best cereal ever.

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

haha, nice one Frizzle Ghizzle!

I believe that's the correct use of the suffix 'izzle'

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

nice one!

=)

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

go us!

[leofrea]

Go vegan, tis wonderful :)

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

I lived with vegans... the chances of that happening are somewhere between zero and minus one.

=P

[BrilliantDemise]

I love the prize... :D I'll cherish it!!!

Love you, Dave. As always!!!

:)

[BItChSlaP1o1]

can u play john frusciante?

[BItChSlaP1o1]

can u play john frsciante

[HowXshouldXiXfeel]

1. i want you polka-dot glass, it's awesome =)

2. maybe right a silly song that makes no sense for all of us? Just for laughs or something?

3. you're gonna get somewhere someday soon with all the songs you're writing, you're really good!

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

thanks x2 and 'silly song for jokes' is an idea that has been noted.

[benlorenc]

all about the farming. and the bullshit peta feeds the vegeterians and stuff.

[SapphireUnited]

Beans. Beans are how you survive. Burritos, nachos, soups, etc. Google vegetarian recipes; it's very easy (and much less expensive than eating meat).

[callmejulia]

The cheeky smile at 1:09 was great.

Good idea, I might try vegetarian week.. (emphasis on the TRY)

[slowface6756]

agreeing with the eating meat thingy too btw.

[slowface6756]

you should make a really gay looking kissy face for the winner. haha.

[tayleragainstcity]

yay for vegetarians! :)

try a veggie burger,

they're actually quite tasty

.. a soy one though

the vegetable ones are wierd

[Sanerist]

I don't eat meat in my Cap'n crunch!!!!

[imogend196]

i would try the veggie thing but i've already eaten two portions of meat today

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

doesn't really matter when you atart. =)

[SporkyD]

Awsome video Dave! great vlog!!

[oh13yea13baby]

you don't put meat in your cereal?!?

how weird....

[slowface6756]

haha yeah that made my day!

[TDKnuckle]

i signed up for the 365 thing, i am making a video on the day i FINALLY finish school, yaay :)

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

ahh, good choice!

[PinkPoloShirt]

I would take part in vegetarian week but I only just found out about it and I had lasagne for lunch lol.

Yeah I totaly agree with what you said about Jerry. YouTube need to recognise his awesomeness!

And lol I also like the noise at the end of your video :)

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

Just start from now. =)

[Blade376]

I did the free rice thing - good idea to pass the word on that!

I'm going to take up the vegetarian week task too - just not this week. gotta lot of stuff going on, so next week it'll be =] I'm yet to watch that video too.

And I have the same views with you on it - i think eating meat is okay..but the way it is farmed is appauling.

By the way, love the hair!

[penis4ever69]

hey your that guy! your cool.

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

:O what guy?!

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

haha thanks man, it's becoming ridiculous!

So many people are like, 'I'd do veggie week but I already ate meat today'... like wtf just start tomorrow!

People are funny.

[Woofle1990]

You look really huggable in this. It is kind cute.

Not sure why I felt the need the share that.

Oh well.

[sourfraser]

i lv the hair

[GlynTaft]

The Linda Macartney range is really good if this helps you get through the week, a lot just tastes the same as you would have if you had meat in it.Special mention for the Sauages, really nice.

[KattyTee]

I love the prize :D.

Go Dave! Veggie for a week!...I cooked dinner yesterday...I didn't know about the veggie think...we had pork chow mein...*blush*

I love that noise too. Me watched the end of video twice.

[bigmetaldude]

I don't need no stinkin' prize! It's all about that good feeling down there. No... not down THERE. In my heart, silly. SHEESH!

[SophieBeard]

PST.

Your first.

I'm Last.

We're the best. OH YES!

x

[thegadgetdude]

p.s. The quality isn't so good (the lines n such) because you forgot to deinterlace it, it's an option somewhere when you export the footage.

I forgot to do it in my last video as well so I look blury too. :D

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

ahh thanks, I just found it! I'll try that next time.

=)

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

Just start from now!

=)

[incomplte1perfection]

Write a song about rice =]

[grammerincorrect]

yay sunshine session files!!

[riverbasil]

the veg thing is going great for me... though I narrowly avoided using chicken stock the other day which had 4% chicken in it... I was so relieved.

[RickyTabooger]

1:10 - You smug bastard :P Love it.

Vegetarianism - is cool, I lasted 13 months. Good on ya for giving it a go.

....Corn. XD

[apehodet]

"so far it's been surprisingly easy, but it's 2 o'clock on a monday, so..." xD

and I GOT CHRISTMAS!

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

YEAH YOU DID!

[apehodet]

I KNOW! CRAZY RIGHT?

[delandreas]

I am actually watching the video in mute. It's quite cool to see you just moving around and mouthing stuff that seems.. interesting.

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

I'll be honest, that's not... ideal.

[delandreas]

Well, I was in the school library so.. yeah. I'm home now and I've watched the video, with sound. =)

I can never become a vegeterian because meat has been my friend for 17 years and counting.. it would be bad to like ignore it now. But yeah, good luck on your plan!

[KatamariDomination]

already veggie!!!

[ch0c0fr3ak]

Dave, your hair looks more awesome than usual.

[MSVD0711]

there are different types of vegetarians.,, pescatarian, flexatarian, lacto-vegetarian, ovo-vegetarian, vegan, raw-vegan and macrobiotic. I know you said you are only trying this lifestyle for a week but I suggest you look into it a little farther if you are interested. There is a lot more to being a vegetarian than just not eating meat. I'm happy to hear that you are trying it out! The animals you save this week thank you!!! :D

[grammerincorrect]

see how you say "tha animals you've saved"

its not like him not eating meat has stopped animals being killed, so that doesn't really make sense.

just a thought. i'm bored.

[MSVD0711]

actually (now I dont want to argue here so just hear me out) it does make sense. Say he would have had chicken for dinner. Instead of him eating that chicken, it fed someone else, which saved the chicken that the other person would have consumed instead of the one he didn't eat and so on and so forth. It's not necessarily a particular chicken that he saved but more of a "chain reaction" It's hard to visualize b/c it's such a long reaction but he is actually saving an animal...trust me, its true.

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

I'd say one person for one week probably wouldn't be enough because the reaction you talk about goes back to a supermarket and it would have to be enough for them to change an order, and they work on such a big scale it wouldn't do that, it would probably just mean they throw out slightly more at the end of the week! However something like world veggie week has enough people taking part to have an impact on the number of products sold large enough for them to adjust their orders.. I would guess!

[MSVD0711]

it all comes down to supply and demand.

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

I know I've lived with vegans before, I'm definitely not that hardcore! I'm just doing your basic vegetarian - no meat, including fish, I don't get pescatarians - why wouldn't fish count?! But I'm not giving up eggs and dairy, I'd die.

[MSVD0711]

lol... yeah, eggs was the hardest for me to give up and fish but not necessarily eating them but going fishing with my dad. It's what we did together, ya know? noneless, you are doing your part and that is great!

p.s. LOVE your videos!

[ohstefie]

1. you're so cute!

2. i agree with you. i love those vegatarians and i do enjoy vegan brownies. YUM. But i'm italian and i love my meat. alot.

:)

[HP7letitbe]

I have a suggestion for the prize:

You should take request for a song that you will cover, not write. And then you take the top three(or the suggestions you like the best) and we will vote in the comments and then you will cover the highest voted song.

Something a long those lines would be fun and include everyone who participated in the rice game.

[mongoos150]

LOTS of stuff in this vid!

[Maddog53]

Really cool idea for a channel.  I'm off to subscribe.

[bostoncremetimbit]

Lol @ the air of smugness in your voice when you said "Not before though; No one's before.." haha

And on the vegitarian week thing, I could definitely not be a full-on vegetarian, because I like meat too much, but I agree that the process is not exactly the best.. I think that's what I'm trying to say..

But I am going to give this Vegetarian Week thing a try.. See how far I get.. Hopefully the whole week. :)

[crs0831]

You are way too adorable in this video.

BUT anyways,

Good for you on veg week! I would never be able to handle that. I'm way too much of a meat-eater.

:D

[awesomevegan]

congrats on giving the veg week a try! good luck!

[wonderlandXlove]

Wonderul video.

Im a vegatarian!!!

and its cool.

I think that meat shoudl not be killed in ecxess, or bread to farm, then go into a slaughter house are abused to death go into a grocery store and then no one buys it and they get thrown away

--------------

does that makes sense??

[UTJenHawk09]

I agree w/you about the vegetarian thing. I respect people who are, but it's not for me because I'm a carnivore to the max. I may try to do it for this week though...just to see if I can survive =)

Hopefully I snagged August 19 for the project (my bday's Aug 25 but I agree w/you & don't wanna make one on my bday)

JERRY FOR PARTNER KTHNXBI! Can't believe he's been turned down so much. I'm in the facebook group =p

<3

[ehvee1]

Vegetarian can be a wonderful way to eat... just remember that you have to "balance your proteins" in your diet in order to feel nourished and satisfied after three or four days. Google this: vegetarian balance proteins and read through the hits. This eating style takes some effort and knowledge... but it works. I look forward to what you have to say in a week!

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

don't worry, I've lived with vegans before!

[melunknown]

people must help beacuse thats the right thing to do not for a prize,its karma you do something good then sooner or later there´s something good for you too..although a song would be nice =P.

Good luck on the veggie week,I will do it too..but its not going to be a big change for me cause i have been doing it for 7/8 years =)

[BlueSunWiz]

That was interesting, I felt like I was watching a flickering hologram like on a Sci-Fi movie that I can't think of right now. LOL : )

[strawberriedc]

you are absolutely adorable :)

i really like your idea of trying a vegetarian lifestyle for a week- i've never been compelled to commit to being a vegetarian, but i love the idea of giving it a "test drive"

annnd i know EXACTLY what you mean about loving that noise at the end of your video... certain really odd sounds can be really enjoyable :P

[jfruge08]

well if I can get my mum to send me my video camera down here then I think I will pick a day but I dont know. Hey is there any way you would like put up chords to your new song or something I absolutely love it and I would love to be able to play it and have people be like whoa whos that and then I could be like " well go check out blue skies on youtube, hes this crazy good musician from England."

[asmileyoucantwipeoff]

yyeeeaah, it's been... three hours? i still can't think of a good argument against the "knowledge of helping people" thing without sounding like a jerk.

i give up. you win. at least i tried.

=P

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

It's watertight.

[luckyoptimization]

"Not before though..no one's before."

You're absolutely adorable.

[DoubleDareLike]

Prize? I feel like I've won a prize every time I watch one of your videos.

[KaleM1717]

Imma do Vegetarian week. =] woo.

I'm semi-veggie anyway, I don't really eat red meat or meat with clearly visible fat... I don't think this is gunna be too hard.

[y2kjonrichards]

I am loving the tags! Just joined in with the 365Project. LOL "no ones before!".

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

I thought of you when I nailed those tags!

=P

[willmcloskey]

That was simply Amazing. Keep the prizes comin!

[sorrysim]

i dont really understand what you said but i know its a great cause for the free rice...and is the word "price"? is yes i dont understand where the mistake is

sorry i my first language is not english

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

'prize'

.. for whoever got the most rice.

=)

[lilroses123]

you'll be surprised how incredibly easy not eating meat is. If your ever craving a meat product look for morning star products there 100% vegetarian and very good. I'm not a vegetarian but i have been

[pukeythief]

"Without looking like a SHIT" That made me giggle

Blunt I like it :D

[doubledutchdisco]

I like the idea of the 365 project, thanks for letting us know about it!

Also, I think I may join everyone else and try the vegetarian thing. I don't eat meat a whole lot anyway, but consciously making the effort not to may prove to be a bit difficult.

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

yeah, I'm sure I go a day every now and then without noticing, but today I wanted meat just because I knew I couldn't have it!

[Director705]

Wait hold on, why would you want January 1st?

Aren't you going to be totally drunk for new years eve?

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

ah you're forgetting that I can make the video any time between now and then! Well I'll probably leave it until a few days before incase there are any last minute ideas that need to go in it but yeh, won't be making it on the 1st, will be hungover.

[Director705]

this is true, cuz i figured you'd be drinking a lot the night before lol, it would be funny to see hungover/tired dave try to record a video

[Director705]

I'm already a vegetarian, so I'm set on that part, but I don't have a camera, and I'm not very interesting anyways, but otherwise 365 project sounds cool

[ebagots]

I love how he smiles after saying "like a shit".

I feel like going vegetarian now,

and I'd be pretty interested in that 365 project.

[tellab17]

1.people who did free rice only for a prize dont deserve a prize anyways.

2. i already ate meat today =(

3. yay for jerryhcooke!

4. yay for you!

5. whats quorn?

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

1. true

2. just start from now

3. yay indeed

4. Oh ok then!

5. like a meat substitute thing

[JazzBandRock]

woo today, may 19th, is my birthday =]

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

woo! happy birthday!

though it is the 20th now lol

[JazzBandRock]

i know, now it's my friends birthday

when are you coming to nottingham again, i couldnt go last week cos of exams

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

I only have one date set, which I think is the first sunday of august. But if I get any before then I'll let people know on here/myspace. =)

[JazzBandRock]

you can come to my party if u want =]

of course you would have to support for jazz band, you can still do the campfire bit though

[BethOnTop]

omg 5 minutes? your joking, right? eurrggghh... <3

Haha.. Great prize idea.. "argue with that, without looking like a shit" haha.

QUORN IS AMAZING.. i might try and do it.. i shall let you know :P

I love that noise your camera makes! I've noticed it before haha.

GREAT VIDEO DAVE- KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

Much love x

p.s see, that's the way to comment a video :P

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

I see...

[BethOnTop]

do you?

[theresagoodreason]

*takes a moment to appriciate the tags* lol I too am doing the veggie thing, easy so far =)

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

THANK YOU!

That took me longer than you would think!

=P

[hairsprayqueen]

You don't put meat in your cereal? Ridiculous.

[saddasdas2]

i did 7000 grains in one sitting [screenshot proof], sing me "colorblind" by counting crows!!

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

I've been too scared to watch that yet lol

[MandyKell]

If vloggers mentioned they were giving a link in the side, and didn't do ANY pointing, would viewers really have no idea where to look? Your amended point got me pondering why 'everyone' points...

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

lol that was actually a little referrence, Mhazz mentioned it to Alex and he put it in a video somewhere, and I've thought about it before... that when people point on partner channels they are actually pointing at ads usually!

[MandyKell]

I understood the reference :P I had thought about it before too... but this time, I realized there is no point in pointing really, not directed to you (can't remember if you usually point...) but to most vloggers.

"I'll put a link in the description." *points*

Surely the viewers can figure it out themselves. Or maybe this is one instance where I under-estimate people's stupidity ;)

Oh yeah, I enjoyed the video. Meant to mention that earlier :S

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

haha, yeh I do usually point, it's just something you have to do! It would feel wrong to say that line and not point!

And tbh I have had a comment conversation with one particularly foolish person in which I had to describe where the description box was, including like "click the words 'more info' next to the date"

Dear me.

[MandyKell]

Haha- that's awesome. Maybe they just wanted to chat with you & thought it would come across as a valid question?

*wonders if that is what I'm doing*

*decides it's not*

I will try to remember that some people ARE that 'foolish' & I will try not to question your methods in the future...

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

Good luck!

=)

[jspinski92]

meat is soooo goood

[NessaR12]

i'm trying to do the vegitarian week thing, hopefully it will last.

[guitarloser3304]

thats a good video :] nice way to correct yourself

[massaar6]

HAHA buy some... Corn... lmao! okay then :P

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

QUORN!

[bojanglesvegan]

i don't care if you eat meat or not but its cool your going to try being veggie for a week. good luck. i think you'll be able to make it :]

[littleradge]

*punches fist in air repeatedly*

JERRRRY! JERRRRY! JERRRRY! JEetc.

ahem.

Great as always Dave =P

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

=D

Thanks!

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

thanks a lot!

=)

[Greenteabook]

Did you mean Quorn or Corn?

I love Quorn!

[paisleypower30]

he he Toddly esque with the parts :)

I'm doing the vegetarian week thing too.

So you get to start up that channel, nice.

[a13x4]

=] I suggest for the winner - if you've chosen the person... you could just send them a card.. or something? It's easier than writing a song, and they'd end up having something to look at? Or a poster? Or you could just make a poster with the top 100 people or something.. so the top 100 winners feel like they've been mentioned?

Those are my suggestions =]

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

lol thanks but you seem to have me confused with someone a lot less lazy!

=P

[a13x4]

Lol.. it was simply a suggestion.. Then just do the top 10?

[phoenixvolta]

yeah im giving the vegetarian week a go to. i made a video about it aswell if you wanna check it out.

how did you find the first day then?

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

alright... I need to go shopping tomorrow though!

=)

[butherecomesthefall]

Whos's Jerry?

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

jerryhcooke

[jerryhcooke]

Just some looser who thinks he deserves to be partner because he has a couple thousand subs. What a git.
