Patrick Wolf - The Magic Position

[jirikpisek]

love it



[ADevilFromHeaven]

2:55 that could be me ... I have EXACTLY the same hair style and colour and that's how I sometimes dress...(in summer.. it's to cold outside now) I even wear ribbons as belts... Scary.. Perhaps Patrick Wolf is my secret twin?

[chunkybabies101]

why did my friend tell me he was blonde...

[bunnyboyo]

:D this song was written for my sister :D she personally knew patrick and was actually going to marry him he had offered her to come to the uk and everything he was gonig to take her on tours and all sorts of things....but no she ended up marrying a redneck emo bitch of a boy it broke my heart that she threw such opportunities away she could have done so much a few other songs were written because of her such as bluebells tristan and others so message me your trolling so i can read it to her yea

[SeXiVaMpToNi]

@bunnyboyo Patrick Wolf considers himself gay though.

[bunnyboyo]

@SeXiVaMpToNi this was almost 5 years ago dude :P i was just browsing around and saw it so i left the comment idk about is present state but i know a few things about him that not alot of people do :)

[sea58]

the first time I watched this I was high and I was like WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS, now its okay

[Guru]

i came here aftering hearing it in, "Were The World Mine". :~) <3

[arn237]

@trizable I'm Canadian as well and don't know anyone who's familiar with him. I get the impression he's somewhat well known in the UK, though.

[conradadski]

@arn237 Hi Canucks, The only place in Canada I have found him played on has been Community College radio, not even on University. Can't find the Mystery Jets on any other radio either.

[vanillagoat]

He kind of makes me think of a modern day Robert Smith....

[nobodyimportant789]

on powinien być słynny na cały świat!!!

jest niesamowity

[MosesJonson]

Thanks for posting this! FRUCK Vevo!!!

[trizable]

Patrick Wolf has a fan base????

Where?

I'm from Canada and i know not one other person who's even ever heard of him.

Don't get me wrong - he's amazing - but most of the artists i consider amazing have almost no listeners at all

[Bra1th]

I loaded MR Wolf's 10 fuckin heavy case's on to a ryanair yesterday, so I googled him, I didnt like him much then and I really dont like him now, his shit

[TrannyKing109]

oh God, make it stopmakeitstopmakeitstopmakeit­stop. Why do people like this, I really want to know!? Its not the video, its the music, this is awful. I don't mean to hate but really, how is this considered music?

[TheSalaiii]

@TrannyKing109 Because it's happy music, it's a different genre than you like, and I can respect that. This isn't my favorite of his songs (by far) but all of his music makes me feel such joy. Listen to the song Bluebells, it's my favorite and it's a slower one, but it's beautiful.

[monkeysandhamsters]

@TrannyKing109 why are you here if you hate it so much?

[badluckshadow13]

@TrannyKing109 aw come on now, let's take a logical approach to this, the voice isn't cookie-cutter, nor is it deafeningly screechy, the music is full of traditional instruments arranged in a decently-accessable modern format, and the lyrics are acceptable... which bit is "awful" ?

Go ahead, use your words, if you're nice I might even point you in the direction of someone you'd like more

[louisjosephtripp]

This video is so delightful to watch.

[Monstopo]

I want to meet him and hug him until he almost-suffocates. How can someone be so adorable?

[getsensus]

he looks like mix of Roger Taylor and Simon Le Bon from Duran Duran, but despite it music is meaningless, sorry

[saggiehead]

As with all great artists , when you first stumble across them, you are utterly confused, and not sure if you like them but you can't take your eyes off them. This is where I am at the moment. I'm quickly warming to him though. Bluebells is lovely, and his vids are a treat :)

[TheRHINOS1]

Reminds me of Leeds Rhino's... Well, the Super League Show anyways :)

[buddasmattress]

Beautiful.

[gerafin1]

Mmmm. I must say, although this is catchy, his weirder/more experimental stuff is what will really cement him as one of my favorite artists. Listen to anything off of The Bachelor - it's a musical trip like no other. Oblivion, Thickets, Damaris, etc... it's all spectacular :D

[Thundersauce]

hardly his best song, Vulture and Hard Times are by far his best work.

[bumblebert]

I know what position I'd put him in!x

[VelvetSwine]

Cute young man but boring prosaic lyrics.

[andreabaer1]

likelikelike

[Karolcia1993]

This song is so lovely. It always puts a smile on my face, no matter what happens. So relaxing and beautiful.

[ksieciunio4]

wow, just discovered him, why that late?

[vazhavandan]

awesome music

[Sareth740]

It's not enough to speak, but to speak true!

[MARKA060684]

Since this song my adventure with Patrick has began... I hope it will not end too quickly :) :) :)

[WhoTheFuck2]

Benneton? ^^

I like Patrick! :DD

[MrNonoz]

So Bowie

[ThaEther]

why is it that his music is always so much louder than his voice O.o

[EccentricSage]

Oh, this is too adorable. <3

[HiAdrian]

Wonderful song, "upbeat" is a good word to describe it :D

[boo71164]

it was the 1st of Patrick that i heard

[GayGeisha]

Fuck the 178 people who don't like this!

[zhukant]

@GayGeisha Hahah hell to the yes! :D

[DAF2006]

It will be played when I get my report card at my prom this thursday XDD

[hazzlejhyt]

could be the lamest thing I've ever seen...

[MostBoringPersonEver]

What is the 'Magic Position' anyway? Awesome song though. :)

[claytongreenface]

what a willy. muggy little cant!

[Sndrtj]

What do you have to do to impress a girl who is totally obsessed with this guy?

[midori211]

@Sndrtj dye your hair red (or platinum blonde) put on some glittering make-up, wear peter-pan inspired clothes and sing to her 'youuu put me into *pam pam* magic position daaarling!'. or maybe you should just ask her out.

[Sndrtj]

@midori211 Oh I am asking her out, it's just that I like everything about her except her obsession with this kind of music and style.

[skatapoopy]

this man is fucking brilliant!

[selty]

Patrick, you are a born again bard. You write the music of the soul. I adore you.

[superdavid002]

pretty good for a guy raised by Wolves.

[mrlmchoylifut]

A little over three years ago I was first introduced to this song; and I could never tolerate that young woman dancing in the red pants. She is SO annoying.

[a4d2d0]

lol i regret clicking on this vid

[5kokoko]

such a beautiful voice...

[yongtube91]

i bet he dosnt have any soul:P since hes a ginger! ( trolling ~~ )

[mrlmchoylifut]

@yongtube91 Haha. He is not naturally red haired though. :)

[animelili201]

Patrick Wolf Ftw~

[SuperYellafella]

he's a weird looking chap

[EmyAugustus]

@SuperYellafella i think you mean to say devastatingly beautiful god-nymph. ;D

[SuperYellafella]

no, just no

[EmyAugustus]

hahahaha

[SuperYellafella]

hahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­a

[enferdesalade]

wow 1000000000000000timessssss

[CadetHedo]

Man...I used to have a freakishly similar haircut (and color....but it was faded as hell) when I started dating my wife (who then got me into patrick wolf). Now I kinda regret slicing it off. XD

I wanted to cover this with her and then she decided we should cover "The Childcatcher" instead... :/

I love in the beginning when he opens the drawer and it's all like BIRD! XD

[emsctwzt]

not a good remake of "come on eileen"

[StraightontheBlue]

One of my alltime favorite songs!

[SirAngelboyd]

no me canso de escuchar esta cancion!! :D

[ChocolateKat]

i love his ribbon belts!

[HamsterKex]

im totaly in love whit this boy <3 hes so damn cute <3 <3 <3 the music <3

[shunth3nonbeliever]

Only song I like by him.

[thenavajoknow]

I'm more into his darker songs, but this IS a great homage to Dexy's Midnight Runners, isn't it? British Soul rulez...

[MrTrish101]

Cool. But do you think he's better than Samuel & the Dragon? Their Diamonds track is pretty wicked..

[shams0001]

I'd never be able to pull off that hairdo...

[zairuku]

@shams0001 Agreed, especialy his hair in Hard Times, how much hairspray that took, we will never know.

[grace317]

His face is so strange, sometimes he looks so gorgeous and at other times plain.

[Innle]

i reckon he looks bad as a blonde, he looks best with red or black hair

[imsofreakingninja]

...his voice doesnt sound like it should come from his body O_o

Fun beat :D

[japanesehams]

this song is the dog's tuxedo...

[Kokoratka]

Ooooh, I love this song......

[laurabarrett1]

this song is the cats pyjamas! <3

[Hellcat915]

Is he gay ??? i actually think so :p ,i mean look at him :D

[pornuestromm]

he's bi :)

[Kokoratka]

@Hellcat915 He's bi. He's georeous genius whatever he does. Love him and love this song, it's so happy, leaves me in a good mood. I can't get it out of my mind!

[jeffeastwood15]

Hellcat915, I don't know if he's gay or not but he sure as heck looks like my first boyfriend lol

[FEERME1225]

This song reminds me a lot about the feeling you have when you fall for someone. They just put you in the magic position, from then on it's hell getting out of it. Happy song, very good tone to it.

[skorchedutopia]

So once every ten years you hear this song that leaves you grinning like an idiot. Stellastarr* managed this for me back in 2001 and lo'n'behold! Magic Position. I can't help it, the boy is brilliant.

[Sn0000pdogg]

what are the children shouting right at the begging? it sounds like G. A. Y. ?

Help

[Innle]

@Sn0000pdogg hahahahah

[spaceshiptravelfar]

shoot! bang! fire!

[bananasplit15]

@spaceshiptravelfar as long as I've been listening to this song I have never been able to figure that out.... O.o

[mrlmchoylifut]

@Sn0000pdogg The words they shout are, "shoot bang fire!"

[Rowwaaaaan]

he looks and sounds goooooooorgeous in this video :)

[YukiKirai]

Love how he pronounces: Through : D

First I hear of him and I LOVE it..

[lucy7100]

yes you do :)

[NathanielJWright]

I wish he were my boyfriend.

[SixMioDollarMan]

what kinda clown is that?

[TheLuckyStrike100]

makes me wanna dance.

I think, it's great that they don't need million dollars to make beautiful and funny video

[MARKA060684]

I like this movie. It ok for people like me... This video is wonderfull. I love it.

[SUPERSTUDIO17]

I really like this song and i really do think he is awesome but unfortunately this music video is a lame attempt to make a video for this wonderful song. They could've done much much better.

[TheChantinee]

he reminds me of the singer of pulp

[fetmabebis]

Ah Cocker... I believe that Patrick is a bit more social but maybe :P

[jazzitsme123]

yes he does! he well reminds me of jarvis cocker. his movements and looks and everything.

[skorchedutopia]

@jazzitsme123 I wouldn't have made that connection, but yes, this kid is a young Jarvis Cocker. I just can't hear the boy singin', "I Will Kill Again."

[iwantwhatiget]

I love this because it reminds me of the older music <3 Go patrick!!!!

[dumdidugrisa]

wonderful :)

[Mackenziefirst]

Is so gay! I love!!

[ursulamx]

yes because upbeat music, wild and colourful dress sense and red hair just SCREAMS emo.

[holikiir]

THANK YOU! lol

[12astile]

@ursulamx I would say he screams gay lol

[SuperUkuleleGirl]

@12astile wow. thats so witty,bet you felt bare clever when you thought that one up.

[12astile]

@SuperUkuleleGirl haha I think gay is awesome,...

[SuperUkuleleGirl]

@12astile no more or less awesome then hetro or bi in my opinion. at the end of the day a person will always be themselves for better or for worse no matter their sexuality :) i'm sure theres both sides to Patrick Wolf ..

[12astile]

@SuperUkuleleGirl oh,thank you for letting me realize how ignorant my comment may of come off,I didnt mean that he was awesome for being gay,I said that being gay is awesome,but I never said that being straight or being bi wasnt,,,and I never said he was awesome for being gya or what ever sexual orientation he his.....

[SuperUkuleleGirl]

@12astile god. i'm sorry,i sound like some pernickity high horse type. My bad :)

[12astile]

@SuperUkuleleGirl np, : ]

[Aschmodei]

@ursulamx He is also gay (which also stands for happy) so I would say it evens out. Blasted emofags, corrupting our sons!

[PatroclusLover]

@Aschmodei He is bi actually, if anyone cares...

[Faultify]

@ursulamx lesbian

[TsubasaEmoFool]

3rfktyjfsdufaduyfsdk

[cheesebagel]

one of the best musicians of this generation...

[VancouverVortex]

its fun

[RainyDayWolf]

This video is a lot like the 1234 the feist, isn't it?...

[swimlonely]

Sweet Jesus. He's gorgeous.

[batemanbates]

well, i can't halp myself, but i think he has changed a lot since that album, he seems to have become a real snob. anyway, he is a guifted musician

[blllllllllleugh]

this song sounds so much like 'I Am The Resurrection' by Stone Roses (please listen to it before giving me a thumbs down)

[Gimic300]

No, not at all.

[lunikar8]

it's only the mowtown-beat

[blllllllllleugh]

"I dont care where youve been or what you plan to do" could seamlessly go into "it's you who puts me in the magic position"... no?

[MarticusApocalypse]

Way to make no point what so ever.. moron.

[RingingTelephone]

I LOVE WOLF

[OrangeJuice101]

he looks like my ex.

without the red hair.

[Misskdinsdale]

Personally, I think he is amazing! =D Love him and his music! yey =]

[NightmareNathan]

He was fucking incredible at leeds!

[doherty06]

LEEDS FEST? he was amzing at reading, climbed the scaff, haha

[carnelloe]

Saw him on the Reading highlights, i think his music has a rare epic quality, oh and he's got great hair ,lol

[carpypark]

"Who's this weirdo?", is what I first thought when I saw him on the Reading highlights.

Never heard him before.

By the end, I was hooked. One of the best performances at Reading 09.

[MOOndust91]

Same, I loooved wolfie at reading! He was definitely the best performer there.

[carpypark]

I recorded it. Have watched it loads! Crystal Castles..what was she on?!

[StephaMuffin]

A fag is technically a bundle of sticks that they used to burn homosexuals alive. It's a horrible thing to call someone, even if you think they're gay. When you call someone a fag, you're basically saying you want them dead. Don't call gay people fags, you homophobic jerks.

[CupCakeAndMe]

yay for anti-homophobics the people who have an IQ above 70!

[ColdSig]

...even if this sounded good, this is some sErIoUsLy queer shit...

[shadowxpirate]

Yeah, too bad he wrote this album for his GIRLFRIEND. Faggot.

[19bumsebiene91]

omg, such a wounderfull song

and amazing guy :)

<333^

[bethAARnyy]

he is so cute :)

I'm going to see him at the freedom festival in hull along with florence + the machine (L) It's gonna be immense :)

[YoMama9o]

same here! i can't wait XD

[PantomimeMakeup]

"It is not even music"

What is music?

[symetricool1103]

he was amaziiiiinnnnnggg at underage.

i loved his rant in 'battle'...

YOU ARE THE REVOLUTIONARY CHILDREN! FIGHT THEM! CHANGE THINGS! YOU'VE GOT THE POWER!

[VanHalen383]

I was at Underage aswell, I met him at the signing tent, he was really nice :)

[violetRhythm]

LOVE HIM! <3

[MarticusApocalypse]

I like some of his music, but does he have to be so faggy about it!?

[duncabbin]

Because he is a trendy arthouse cunt.

[ickeryeckeru]

Sure. He's a really faggy person.

[PantomimeMakeup]

So "faggy" about it? OH..imagine, expressing his sexuality ( !  ) shock..shock..horror!

[MarticusApocalypse]

Nice prejudist opinion. I know plenty of gay guys who not only dont act like this but dont feel the need to either.

Also, I'm saying he's acts faggy, nothing to do with his sexuality.

[kilt]

He actually is bisexual, but why can't a guy act faggy for no reason?

A girl can act boyish, but if a boy acts like a girl it's immediately faggy.

What's the point of that? What does this have to do with his music? Nothing!

[MarticusApocalypse]

Truu, but this is a music video, not just the music....

[PantomimeMakeup]

People can act as "camp" (not "Faggy because by using that it insinuates all "fags" act the same - "faggy") as they want; it has nothing to do with you.

[MarticusApocalypse]

Does when I'm watching the music video and he's slowly turning me gay.

[uberscientist]

But if a girl is boyish she's a dyke, duh

[kilt]

Dyke? I've never heard of that word before, I'm not a mother tongue though.

[MegaRapture]

and you are illiterate and a blatant inbred homophobic turd!

i love this song. it's summery in an english way, which i just adore. i've never seen him live, but, from what i've heard, h
