  • The people that made Final Fantasy are mongolised, they made FF games all the way up to 13 then they change the way they are numbered. Eg. Final Fantasy XIII 2

    What the :-@!?

  • @innocenceExperience the case you are trying to make is the potential sale, fir example if I went into a furniture shop and sat on a sofa does that mean the safa company has lost my potential money because I tested it, would the shops change tactics and make you buy the sofa before testing

  • you tell em dan !!!

  • You are king if you can type that fast

  • Dan, the download link for this file is broken! Has zshare axed it because of the mix beat?

  • @douglby are you going to do more of these open letters any time soon? because I'm still listening, and they haven't lost any relevance and also they're awesome ;)

  • Thanks for the heads up about Lilly Allen. I'm done with her and have purged her files (all legally purchased).

    I hope she enjoys her retirement because I will never listen to her again.

    Artists need to realize that the customer is paying attention.

  • It's cool to fuck those new shitty artificial fake and comercial artists, but, don't you get it ? He could replace Lily Allen by every singer on MTV, and it would work, Lily Allen isn't more a bitch than others, Rihanna is exactly the same, yes, Rihanna ... I hope you realize that

    I hope you realize that every MTV's songs are only maid to fuck you, it's not art, just money. Those singers that I'm talking about never took pleasure to sing, everything is designed for money

    Sorry for my english

  • sorry who is dan bull?

  • @nikitawah The one who made this video.. the rapper, the singer? How is that not obvious? lol

  • @nikitawah Go eat shit and die.

  • @nikitawah the dude who wrote this song.

  • lily@allen.com 

  • fast typer..

  • I can understand that if people invest in making something, they need to see a return but it does seem a bit unnatural and arbitrary to put something out then say people must not share it.

  • This is so original, even tho its nots hes own beat..

  • what is he trying to say to lily allen? i dont understand

  • @pivotkid85 she opposes file sharing. If one person buys her song and gives it to nine other people, then she only gets one sale instead of potentially ten, so the artist and label lose money. He is criticizing her for her stance and arguing against those copyright/intellectual property laws.

  • @InnocenceExperience

    They don't lose money if they don't buy their song. How do they make a loss? It's not like it's physical property being stolen that needs to be replaced. It's a file on a server somewhere. They do not make a loss from pirates.

  • @ShadowRSonic they don't gain the money they would gain if people bought the song instead, so they want to stop people sharing so we have to buy from them. They earn less than they would if people respected copyright laws, for sure. Record sales are a fraction of what they were 15 years ago. The music industry has taken a huge hit.

  • @InnocenceExperience

    See what I mean? All they do is not gain more money, they don't actually lose anything. If someone was going to donate £500 to a charity, but instead did something else with that money, the charity didn't lose £500, it just didn't gain that £500.

    Besides. 1 download does not equal 1 sale. The people that pirate music do it because they don't want to purchase it. If they didn't pirate it, they wouldn't buy it either.

    Just thought I'd give you a little lesson about this.

  • Comment removed

  • @InnocenceExperience ...probably some who want to support the artist but it probably wouldn't be the mega business it is.

  • @ShadowRSonic The Ipod Marketplace and a few other places sell individual songs for a dollar or so each if you looked around.

  • @TheDarbius why pay if its free?

  • @pivotkid85 Dude if you don't have the intelligence/maturity to deduce that then i doubt you would understand.

  • See this is the kind of music that should be bought! People listen to Lily Allen And Eminem like it's good and that like no offense to them but Dan Bull is better than any musician I know and I can't get enough of his music! thumbs up if you agree!

  • I'm happy to pay artists directly for music I like; I think it's a fair trade. When I hear street musicians in NYC that I like, I contribute $1. A couple times I've bought a cd, when I was really blown away. However, I do not want to pay for corporate greed. I wish there were a website run by a multitude of artists who wanted to sell their own music directly. Of course, some people will still not pay, but that's on them. At least give us the option. Oh and I think $0.50 per song would be an id

  • @GoldfishLight she posted an anti-piracy rant on her blog, that was copied exactly from a Techdirt blog post (without giving them any credit) then when they mentioned it she shut down the blog, claiming 'abuse'. She also gained some of her fame by posting mixtapes on her website with her work mixed in with other artists'.

  • What did lily allen do? I'm not defending her, I honestly don't know

  • Okay Dan, I really like your work but don't fuck with MUSE :P. Them miming on the show was hilarious because they switched all the roles. They don't mime unless the broadcaster makes them :-)

  • Nice grammar.

  • this is probably one of the best you have made imo. though i really liked the sopa, hitch, AC rev. and the others, but this one is awesome :D

  • bull shit. To many haters out their.

  • Comment removed

  • Dan's like Scroobius, Cept not quite as dark.

  • Amazing!!!!

  • you probably wont read this due to how old this vid is now but after seeing this one you won respect from me haha

  • i have lily allens home address and mobile number if you wanted to contact her directly. Silly bitch shouldnt of gave her real details when buying off the internet!

  • Why am I thinking about Harry Potter when I listen to this song o.O? It has nothing to do with it, except Harry mother's name..

  • thats right just like that guy mike posner i couldnt download his song from anywhere so fuck you dear mike ;)

  • This may be just me but does anyone find a big similarity between Dan Bull and Scroobious Pip?

  • Comment removed

  • any1 have teh lyrics?

  • @appleputty287 Its in the description...

  • Comment removed

  • Wow, there is just so much I like about this song. Its a little awkward to read it as a letter though.

  • I'm trying to find someone I can call a jezebelinternettelevangelist

  • I started liking Lily after hearing someone cover one of her songs.

  • dan's starting to remind me of Plan B's old stuff, loving it mate

  • seariously man how u do no mistakes when ur typing -.- ???? xD TEACH ME !!!

  • @1995alexMAN Cuz he doesn't type it live, it's edited later on to fit the song^^

  • Love you Dan bull you give rap hope!!!

  • You made me love the genre!

  • Make the cd's cost money. Allow piracy and be able to supports artists.

    I download music but I buy the music I like the most to support bands I go to concerts etc. I don't give a shit if they're famous or not.

    So I ask you Dan Bull any chance you'll ever sell your music on CD form because I'd buy that.

  • @siggitiggi He has one CD in print. It costs 1,000,000 pounds.

  • Mindblown

  • brilliant =)

  • 139 people are *insert annoying/ insulting qoute here*

  • Great. Greetings from Poland.

  • selling stuff that does not exist should be illegal.. we are paying energy for information!

  • what is your words per minute??

  • I love this guy!

  • When did Matt Bellamy ever say pirates are the enemy? And the only time Muse mime is when they're forced to by whatever studio/organisers.

  • @Sn0wLeppard He said it as a response to Lillys infamous blog post that this entire song is about.

  • @Sn0wLeppard He's often spoken out against music piracy. In addition, the miming? There's always a choice. Check Nirvana's Top of the Pops performance to see how it can easily be made a mockery of. I doubt they ever asked them to mime again.

  • So did Lily Allen quit music due to "piracy"?

  • I love how Dan Bull raps about things that matter. He's a REAL artist. Not this stupid shit about Alcohol, Sex, and Parties. This is what rap was originally and should still be all about. Spreading a message, teaching a lesson. I'm surprised this guy is looked at less than a stupid video of a cat playing a piano or a kid who got his finger bitten.

  • @WeTiedTheGame you should listen to 'Right now - fort minor' great song with a great meaning :D

  • @WeTiedTheGame and yet I bet he still does all this ;-)

    got to say he is much better though :-)

  • @WeTiedTheGame Okay I love dan and everything but Keyboard Cat is legit. :|

  • @WeTiedTheGame Hella yeah things that matter.. like syrim and minecraft

  • Wow man you are so amazing! Truly a modern day hero!

  • Whats the thing about Lilly Allen? What did she do/ who is he? Ohh and great job Dan :D

  • keep it up dan, and you will have a chance of passing all those shitty record companies and up high with all the big major people,and maybe you can top fucking eminem cuz someone needs to knock him off his high horse

  • ICH BIN PIRATLISCH !!!

  • AND THEN THEY FUCKED!

  • I know Lily Allen's email! :D

  • Burst out laughing "- SO FUCK YOU "

    Haha you're an absolute legend Dan

  • This is genius, Dan!

  • Did she answer the email XD?

  • How do the artists make money though? This is their occupation ... don't tell me "If I like it, I might tell my friends about it and they'll buy it" because that isn't a sufficient reason. Love you Dan but I will still compare sharing to stealing

  • @TheKillerCucumber Well, if you like the Artist, you will still buy the CD. But why would I buy something without knowing what it sounds like first? Also even though I pirate alot of my music, I still go to see the bands live, because it's the experience. If each ticket costs let's say £30. And 1k people go, £30,000 right there. Gigs make bands the most money, and like Dan said, Downloads don't equate to sales, I'm not going to blindly buy something for the hell of it now am I?

  • @TheKillerCucumber artists will make money in the exact same way how radiohead made money from the album they gave to internet and said 'pay whatever you want. if you dont want, pay nothing at all'. most, paid nothing. and you know what the end result has been ? radiohead made MORE than what they would have made with that album if they contracted it with a label and went touring for a year, IN JUST FOUR HOURS. that album is still selling as of now. for free. over the internet

  • @unity100 I'm against piracy in almost every case except music. Music shouldn't have to be paid for.

  • I know this may not mean much, but you sir are an amazing artist. This had everything, great lyrics, a great message, and slapping Lily Allen's stupid comments, in the nicest possible way. Love it!!!

  • I used to write letters but then i took an arrow to the knee

  • wise words

  • thumbs up, if you think Dan bull is a way bigger artist than Lilly Allen will ever become. She only cares about money! its the only reason why she makes music!

  • @2300mathias She stopped...

  • DAmN BULL... You are awesome. Peace out.

  • Finally I got Lily Allen's email addy :x

  • it would be hard to say that if i think a thought, then you cant copy me, cuz it is a widely accepted theory that thoughts are contagious :P

  • Mate, you're seriously maybe 1 out of 10 artist's i will ay for even though I'm skint. Good work!

  • also the person who made the soundtrack for touhou doesn't even bother with enforcing copyright on it or the remixes.... it actually made his music MORE popular....

  • did u actually send this????

    

  • Dont be so silly, Lily, get on your knees and suck my ........too easy

  • I love Metallica but they're very money grubby.....

  • Dan Bull is so genious..

    

  • This guy is so under rated. But then, who needs ratings when you're this good?

  • @reetskeetreet underrated? you dont even know what the word means

  • @reetskeetreet For sureeeee lol

  • i love how his songs are either about videogames or something that actually matters unlike any other rapper out there :P

  • @Fridaythe18th There appears to be some overlap in your categories, sir.

  • @Fridaythe18th You say it like videogames don't matter.

  • @DrQuijano

    Compared to issues like SOPA, occupy wall street or the UK election I'd say they're pretty unimportant

  • @Fridaythe18th Wait what do you mean Rappers are all about -oh wait my mind is in the 80's and 90's. Sorry your right

  • 0:55

    Dont start a sentence with 'And'

    :p

    Jokes

    Great point of view/ open letter.

  • Incredible lyrics, and I totally agree. Making music shouldn't be about making money, it should be about expressing yourself and, if other people enjoy it, allowing your creativity to be shared. If people genuinely like the music and want to support the artist, they WILL buy the cd's and mp3's, regardless of how many times they have listened to the song for free.

  • i would just laugh my ass off if this was on sale on iTunes xD

  • Corporate greed is destroying our society. It's high time to say 'no more'.

  • An absolutely brilliant man.

  • this song seems to have turned out much better than lily allen's song, from which the beat was taken from.

  • <3

  • I love the part that names most of the tracks in the album

  • Loved it! :D

  • xD i like this song cus my name is Lily >.<

  • 132 people are "part of parlophone"!

  • wow man really nice job

    but I miss lily

    I loved her music

  • @SovietSniperProd So do Dan Bull. That's why he's trying to talk sense into her.

  • this is well good!

  • Awesome video!! Thanks for sharing:)

    Grandma Mary

  • Mystery Seeker sent me here..

  • ....someones got alot of free time

  • Did Lily any make a comment on this?

  • i have found a website webmovietube to watch movies for free..njoy

  • Did anyone else try to scroll down on the letter? Nope? Damn, I'm just retarded then.

  • Was a cracking video and really clever until the Muse part. Matt Bellamy is a genius, do not cross him.

  • Man this guts talented

  • len CD, "it's not me, it's you." First thing I noticed? SHE LOOKED LIKE SHE WEIGHED TEN POUNDS! She got extremely thin, had $hitloads of make up on, and a pretty pink dress. I wasn't even positive it was HER on the cover. What happens when we listen to the CD? It SOUNDED mainstream.

    Dear lily, you have completely lost your style and personality. Looks and money aren't everything. Sincerely, Caitlin. Your FORMER 1# fan.

  • Okay, I don't want to sound like a total hipster or anything, but I listened to Lily Allen WAYY before she was this mainstream. About four years ago I was being picked up at school by my mother, who had just bought "Alright, Still" (she likes to buy albums from people she's never heard of) and LOVED her music! It was so original! If I asked anybody if they listened to her they had no idea who I was talking about! Then, about three years later, my mother picks me up at school with a new Lily All

  • cool must see facebook trick /watch?v=Fd0di5HFboY

  • I thought that artists made their money on concerts. The mp3 and adverts to get fans to go the concerts. One ticket could be more than a fan might spend on all the full price CD's

  • please lyrics

  • "..stop worrying about pirates, and adjust your sails"

    Really, god, damn good. Legend.

  • @deathstreaks ... and adjust your sales. (Subliminal message)

  • really fucking good video

  • aaaaaaaaweeeeeeeeesome

  • awesome!!

  • Most. Awesome. Song. Ever.

    These lyrics are insane! Hats off yo you, sir!

  • anyone have a video with lyrics?

  • @MrSweboi

    lol the lyrics are IN THIS video O_o

  • @MrSweboi im sorry, are you retarded?

  • @rillesnille No sherlock, i'm not retarted. I think most people realized that i wasn't serious, but dumbfucks like you apperantly didn't.

  • @MrSweboi .... The song is lyrics.... He's typing it out which means these are the lyrics.

  • @RowenStipe liar

  • @RowenStipe Are you stupid? The words in the video are the not words he's rapping, are you deaf? :/

  • @MrSweboi lol, the lyrics are typed during the song XD

  • @deaddialtone That's the joke.

  • i will break the reapet button on this song ;D

  • You sir, Dan Bull, get all my internetz for the rest of your life. This song is f-ing Awesome!

  • So damn phenomenal!

  • THIS IS SO EPIC!

  • Everything for Verdana 10

  • I love the internet.

  • this is ok movie..watched the full movie in webmovietube for free

  • 0:26 switches to italics. I SEE NO ITALICS!

  • hahaha!

  • you are the man i actually uploaded this song to warez-bb few months back if your against that ill remove it

  • Excellent! Made my day,. Lily Allen never thinks before she speaks. She's either thick or she's a selfish, full-of-shit wanker. Or both.

    I'll never forget her tales of her, 'tough childhood", when her mum used to have to - "really struggle to".......wait for it........."pay our school fees" !??!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Haaa ha ha

  • LOL. I listen to this a lot because he's funny. True, but funny.
