  • His voice is similar to Sting's voice...

  • @VeraPMChannel yes!!!

    

  • so soulful and lovely. 

  • My new favorite song of all time. Beautiful.

  • spooky. trippy. nice.

  • This is almost as un nerving as the tool video for schism

  • Love this haunting track.

  • Becoming a bigger Gotye fan with each view of his vids.

  • I only hear dubstep and metal. but THIS is great ! a artist, that can make me smile which is not dubstep :)

  • @PAcotheTaco246a people write songs about things they feel or know-love, sex, heartbreak it's about inspiration - food isn't much of inspiring material for a song. That's why it is bad, there is no emotion of life, or connection, do you watch movies about food? Howe watch them about love sex etc.

  • Dang that's amazing

  • I believe this is you.

  • Pink Floyd s marching hammers. 

  • Песня классная, а клип - жуткий...

  • this guys the real deal

  • The video makes me think a lot of Tim Burton. Very Nightmare Before Christmas-y, especially the very beginning...

  • copy and paste g0ddessofluv36's comment : ) And I listen more to the acoustics and unique sounds, not necessarily the lyrics, though he has a soothing voice

  • love the song, but i feel like music these days is ONLY about love, or sex, or drugs. And if it's about something random like...food then people judge it as bad..what else can there be?

  • @PacotheTaco246a

    Well, if you want to hear something completely different, then check out Gotye's songs 'State of the art' and 'Thanks for your time'.

  • Video definitely reminds me of The Wall..

  • i can only say that is a genie of music :-))

  • Love all of his videos

  • I guess my hearts a mess. I moved on and still I can't forget the past. Sometimes it's love, sometimes it's hate. Sometimes, it's just missing my old best friend. How's that possible? "My hearts a mess- but I can't admit to it. It makes no sense."

  • @mccormickterri1 Seems we are are liking the same music! ..I have only just found this artist and am rather ''cheesed off '' that it wasnt alot sooner ...!

    I see that his music was around in 2007!!!!..Ive been missing out on something very outstanding .........Still never mind ....I shall have his CD on replay everywhere I go!!!

  • I was supposed to have a verse on here, but then o took an arrow to the knee

  • Tim Burton called.....

  • I love thisXD

  • The music and the voice he has reminds me alot of Phil Collins

  • @Branoic23 More like Peter Gabriel.

  • @geauxst9 exactly what I thought. It looks a bit like nightmare b4 Christmas

  • Comment removed

  • Awesome film clip

  • anyone else think this video was Tim Burton-ish?

  • @geauxst9 because tim burton owns everything surreal

  • LOVE THIS MUSIC!!!!!! BEST MUSIC EVER TING TING TING TING

  • It's like Peter Gabriel and Bjork had a child...

    LOL YeahITIS!

  • @TheP00pstar sting may have had a go also ;o)

  • @katepgarry a threesome, maybe ;) You never know....

  • We are all desperate to connect. Gotye for the win.

  • Pretty much obsessed with this song :)

  • I hate these oh shit its popular so i cant like it ppl..idiots

  • Boooooska:D Replay.. Replay 

  • jeszcze nie dotarła do Polski, nikt nie przejmuje?

  • @adek1093

    Przejmujemy :D

  • Reminds me of Nightmare Before Christmas. O.o

  • @Asteriskof408 Yeah it does.. and Coraline..

  • Awesome, like all the rest of gotye's songs :)

  • @lieshbird1994 boohoo

  • @lieshbird1994 So ur upset they are now popular...? Why not original enough for ya now...ya gotta be different from the norm...who gives a shit

  • @TheJayWar HIPSTERS EVERY WHERE

  • @lieshbird1994 shut up hipster fag

  • Best song of u, Gotye.

  • my hearts a mess :(

  • Very reminiscent of Geral Scarfes' marching hammers from Pink Floyds' The Wall. Great.

  • I wonder if Steven Wilson listens to Gotye?

  • Wish I had found out about Gotye sooner, I could see him as highly influencing me in my childhood years. A unique artist with mystical magical sounds.

  • @g0ddessofluv36 Wonder if he was influenced by Peter Gabriel? Would like to see him work on a project with Imogen Heap. They are both heads above the rest and in a class that's undefinable, fresh, intelligent and challenging. Each time you listen, you discover a different layer.

  • i always read this as goatse..

  • Tim Burton-ish. I like it.

  • next pink floyd!

  • @420HoLLyWooD420 never..

  • This music moves me in a fairy land, I forget about reality ...amazing song

  • Great song

  • Feels good

  • So that's what getting mind-fucked to a good song feels like.

  • Ive listened to this way more than 2,000,000 times come on.... counter is broken

  • @1dersrevenge the truth is that a lot of people can't like or dislike vids, and I did write many times to utube, but no f**ing answer.. f;;ing ignorants.

  • Fantastic video and song!

  • @timtimBITCHES what does it mean?

  • GOTYE IS ONE OF MY NEW WAY TO FIND MYSELF SAD ENOUGH TO NOT GIVE A SHIT TO THOSE FUCKING FEELINGS EVEN IF I ALWAYS BE MISERABLE.

  • @TheBbkiddo QQ more, nub

  • Gotye -> /watch?v=Ze75UnAyv28 < - Click Here . !

  • AWESOME....I will buy the Album.

  • Brak słów... takie to jest nieziemskie!!!!!!

  • J' adore Gotye' s mouth.

  • mmmmm yummy! he's just as hot as a weird robot thing. <3<3 Come to Nova Scotia, Gotye, and I'll show you a warm welcome! :O oh yer, I said it. :D

  • song makes me shit!

  • Love the strain on his voice at 3:59. Just sooo good :D

  • i think he sounds a bit like sting..

  • Haters gon' hate. I don't typically use memes as a crutch for humor, but his gait just SCREAMS it!

  • @Lydario shut up

  • @ITAKEYOURGP You're charming.

  • @Lydario Potatoes gon' potate.

  • @TheSpiderHand I like you.

  • <3

  • amazing.

  • The moment before the Lost Lover ascends to the heavens the line: 'Love ain't safe, you won't get hurt, if you stay chaste.' All the others follow the Lost Love into the sky, trying to keep it grounded into the cycle, but they fail, and the Lost Love ascends into nothingness, taken from memory.

    In the end, the planet begins to turn dark, and as the cycle on Earth ends, all the parts of the cycle return to the darkness from which they came.

  • @FandangoJon man your personal articulation of this video is awesome!

  • 7- The Lost Lover, who is now just a skeleton; a brief memory of what they were. Their heart has turned into a serpent that coils from chest to their mind

    8- The spider, this represents death, always following closely behind all that lives

  • 4- The lumberjack made of a Mountain, this is the destruction of the natural world. It follows the stork, and always comes after new life

    5- The Wrecker, this is man's destruction of himself, and follows the lumberjack... when man runs out of things to destroy outwardly, he looks inwards

    6- The Greedy, a man in a suit with the head of a snake. He follows everyone that comes before him, because he seeks to profit from all that has befallen those ahead of him

  • Here's my take on the meaning:

    1- The speaker, the man that's a mouthpiece. All that come after him follow his words.

    2- The broken, those that follow the mouthpiece. Their face is a gas mask and their arms and legs are made of crutches. Humans with their born in flaws

    3- The stork, a blind stork with a cage on it's back. This is birth, it follows the broken, and gives birth to new life, but always into the cage that's on it's back. we're all born broken and oppressed.

  • Ok, I am scared now... I am not a musically inclined person, and yet I love this!

  • LSD trip much?

  • @Buli0n Nic nie zrobisz, musisz z tym jakos zyc :/

  • @muskrose heh, no właśnie tak myślałem, że już nic się nie da zrobić. nie życzę nikomu takiego cierpienia.

  • @Buli0n Głowa do góry :) Można to nieszczęsne uczucie zakopać głęboko w sercu i próbować cieszyć się tym, co jest dokoła. Może gorzka to radość, ale konieczna, żeby nie poddać się całkowicie cierpieniu.

  • Such a beautiful song and video clip
