Brett Dennen - "Heaven" feat. Natalie Merchant

[kieselsteinchen79]

hello brett, i`m from germany und i would like to buy this song (the version with natalie merchant "heaven") - cd or mp3. Could you help me? Where can i buy it? Because on the normal album "hope for the hopeless" does this version no existet. Thanks for your help. Bye kieselsteinchen79

[waislandres]

Natalie adds so much depth to this song, in just harmony alone. Then when taking the Mic, every 10,000 Maniac/ Natalie Merchant fan is going to instantly like this. Don't know what to say to those that fail to appreciate Natalie's singing ?

[GreenApples226]

Natalie can't sing. She can't sing at all

[1997sophia1]

She mess everything up

[1997sophia1]

I like it better without Natalie

[tallbeauty]

I like it better without Natalie.

[KFaulkSkaDoodle]

the solo version is much better natalie's voice kind of ruins it

[IStand2bBrave]

I have to admit, I discovered this song through Natalie, but dear god I'm glad I did.

[TheHighdemon]

13 people are assholes.

[danadachi]

aaaahhh...hard to know what to say...brilliant...brett...nata­lie....yeah I feel like I know you know, you apparently know me....what love...thank you

[wolfgangblum]

I wish I could write a brilliant song like this one ... AMAZING Brett!

Thinking my song "Without You" relates somewhat to your "Heaven" in the way

we deal with uncertainty and questions of belief after untimely death of a loved one.

[Katiepmelvin]

This song really does make you think :)

[fhmaddie10]

The original with him......better.

[fhmaddie10]

WHY DOES HE HAVE TO BE SO GOOD!!!!!!! THIS SONG MAKES you think..and i like it.:)

[L8RM8R1]

we gotta see Natalie and Brett dance together...

two free stylers burning it down..........diff. song tho.....

[SuperChickoy]

madddddddddd



[megansingsalot18]

I like it kaii ?

Butttt he needs a makeover !

[DMoneyMr18]

I like this!!

[gavinlowndes]

Wow ! Fucking loved it

[XxV3dG3xX]

Her voice spices this up. I like it :)

[Cola21212]

natalie's got a beautiful voice and i think it compliments brett on this song. it's a wonderful tune.

[gutturtle]

OMG--- In the Video "Ziplining Guy Falls to his Death", the guy ziplining looks EXACTLY like Brett! I don't think it's really him, but who knows?!?! If anyone knows, post me!

[ericauribe93]

In love with this song soo uplifting :)

[faker807]

yeah..........

[cerealkiller4993]

She killed the song :/

[extremeXjapanophile]

I like her voice and she sounds nice in this song, but I hate when people change the tune slightly when they cover songs.

[smurray1994]

she's not great with him ://...sorryyy

[bugietube]

Great pair up for such a beautiful song but does contrast her Carnival lyrics-Have I been right, Have I been wrong? To turn my eyes and play along, hypnotized, mesmerized...

[lostmyshu]

nice one!

[Naomiandwade]

You should have punched them

[ThatOneGYmnast]

Its about time there is good music. I'm sick & tired of lady gaga getting all this attention cause she frolics with 12 inch heels and a steak on her head. It's like our bad movie epidemic. last time i checked Harry potter is a classic. Not bloody Twilight. This is the generation i'm growing up in.

[drshoggothshow]

@ThatOneGYmnast Lady Gaga wanting to take a ride on a disco stick is infinitely more interesting musically and conceptually than Brett Dennen warbling and whining about all the trouble in the world.

[iRoxorzUrSoxorz]

@drshoggothshow screaming at my dick and listening to it resonate is much more intellectually stimulating than listening to your opinions regarding music

[JohnyBmore]

amazing music!

[djbdmz]

Like if u found this song cos of Tap Tap Revenge .:D

[micxen]

Hey everybody! Take a look on book The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. It helped me to live my life to the fullest!

[MrKillbot5]

@micxen Gorgeous story...as well as all of his other stories are....however where is the relevancy to this video?

[micxen]

@MrKillbot5 It's not to the video :) I'm just inspired by Jack Johnson, Brett Dennen, Mason Jennings and a lot more. For me it looks like they know what life is about. And they enjoy every moment of their life even if it's in hard times. And for me it's something that i also would be able to. So it helps me to listen to Brett and read Paulo Coelho :)

[hewofwend]

@schillitron morisette is a fuckin hopeless spawn of Satan and putting her and a REAL musician like Brett in comparison well uv pretty much dug a hole that u can't quite fill, and ironic is not lyrical wizardry, it's fuckin pop for u fuckin stupid no style people to get sucked into. Alanis morisette= a shitty anus

[89jleon]

Got this from tap tap revenge 4 ! Lol

[malifran]

@89jleon me too! *__* good song!! lol

[noell211]

who is kevin

[TheEMPIRED]

@noell211 ...dumbass

[CrazyBabii5]

Both versions are amazing keep singing brett!

[iBringgIt]

Beautiful song...keep up the good work Brett

[immoralbutton]

@Anna22493

i can compare them too- beatles rock, bieber sucks! well technically that was contrasting but still...

[iidaisydavis]

lol totally tap tap revenge!!! haha love this song.!! 6 thumbs uhp ^^ lol(:

[Nick9494]

tap tap revenge 4, level 6

[TheImmortalHippy]

Tap tap revenge. Thumbs up if u got this from it :)

[P0nyPrincess101]

At the end i thought they said kevin not heaven.

[kesterblack1]

silly good song



[ILiveLoveBelieb]

i love this song. x

[Rayncatt]

what i find is interesting is Natalie Mewrchant was just being found now lol She was lead singer for 10,000 Manicas for years! She has been solo for a while but she is still an awesome singer check out some of her/10,000 maniacs songs like Whats the matter here...as to Brett very interesting n talented

[falloutboyL]

i luv this on Tap Tap

[StephenBaxterTaylor]

That ROCKS



[dfndnola]

Natalie Merchant is amazing! Brett Dennen isn't half bad either ;)

[holohulolo]

I've always liked brett, and natalie too. Although I found out about them just quite recently and separately. I liked them immediately. Then I was searching for either one of their song, and this showed up. And I went HOOAH! ( yes, it's from Scent of a Woman)

[Iamkayaky]

Nicely volalized, very good melody: what's not to like. What the Hell is Heaven - no heaven is on earth and we're f'in it up.

[726rach]

Brett Dennen is by the way just as much a philosopher and poet as a musician! He's just brilliant in every way.

[726rach]

This was the first Brett Dennen song I had, and now he's my favorite artist.

[teraaaaay]

is there hope for the hopeless?

[billhemingway]

A poet extraordinaire..his music moves me like seeger simon or dylan. thanks

[JumpinJellies8D]

Great song! I can listen to this over...and over...and FRIKKIN OVER and nvr get tired. Great singers! YEEESSSSS FEEEEDD THE SOOUUUULLLLL!!!! Cant get enough!

[Jezus2010]

Only god will show you heaven

[Lelldoren71]

@Jezus2010

Glad you have all the answers. Bertrand Russell said all the problems of this world are becasue the stupid people are so certain and the smart ones are so full of doubt. Amen.

[blackholesmuse]

@Jezus2010 I've experienced and lived heaven every moment of every day. Its not the "perfection" most seek but its the perfection I need. This moment, every moment, is all I need. I'll take it while it comes. God may show you heaven, but I've found my own way.

[Schilltron30303]

Question: Is there a home for the homeless?

Answer: Under the freeway

I havent seen such lyrical wizadry since Morrisette 'Ironic'

[gravyonbiscuit]

Love it! Why on this, and just about any music video review someone brings up little Justin Bieber???? Good Grief! Does everyone have to be compared to him? I am not a Bieber fan. But wish him success as he is a talented kid. Of course I prefer Brett Dennen otherwise I'd be listening to Justins videos!!!!

[Schilltron30303]

@gravyonbiscuit Dont you mean Good Biebf???? I think picking Bieber is the high road here

[Laaaetitiax]

BADDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[qwea44]

gingers have souls man

[Schilltron30303]

@qwea44 yes they do damnit! Evil soulless ones

[shelbyyoungs420]

Dude this song has got me through so much!!!! thank you.

[Schilltron30303]

@shelbyyoungs420 me too for sure. I ate all of this red meat at a churrasco house and literally couldnt take a dump for the better part of a week. Then my beanie warm hat in the summer wearing granola pal played this song... and it just came flowing out of me. It was unstoppable. I laughed, I cried, I told my mother I miss her

[onsummersedge]

didn't think I'd like this version, now that I hear it, I'm really impressed. Even better!

[AEIamPhoebe]

Both versions are good

[kyliepaulette1]

brett dennens sisters my science teacher haha

[dvbj2]

thankyou taptap

[TheEMPIRED]

@dvbj2 What is taptap? I always see these comments on brett dennens videos



[dvbj2]

@TheEMPIRED its like a guitar hero on ipod touch :)

[MrDeathlinger]

This guy is better than Justin Bieber anyday

[Anna22493]

@MrDeathlinger I heard someone compare Justin Beiber to The Beatles today... I almost punched them.

[sroar]

@Anna22493 Hehe. Wow. Cringe. Although, come to think of it, the Beatles did start as a boy band, really, and they did change their look entirely to do so (leather jackets to suits). Of course, they didn't stop there, and I don't really see any artist becoming what Beatles' were to their generation/culture.

[sroar]

@Anna22493 sorry just listening to this song, and i have to 'pologize for not mentioning how amazing it was in my last comment.

[chefcs51]

@Anna22493 I would have punched them! People just don't know or appreciate music or listen to lyrics!

[Tempestkin]

@Anna22493 You show more restraint then any person should. To think you almost only punched them... You sure you couldn't have accidentally tripped them... down stairs?

[78KevinHayes]

@Anna22493 After the hairdo, the drop off is IMMENSE!

[yisteru]

@Anna22493 how is he like the beatles justin is crap the beatles is not. you should have punched them XD

[nikkomahor]

@Anna22493 i'd join you... where are they?

[valax300]

@Anna22493 you should have punched them.

[jlhnrjd]

@Anna22493 that deserves a punch,slap,kick, and banned from music for eternity :)

[bjrqiup]

@Anna22493 shut up... this isn't the beatles or justin beiber

[bellabonds]

@Anna22493 You should have.

[GenoPath1]

@Anna22493 I dunno whether to give you a thumbs up, or a thumbs down because you didn't. ;)

[XGodLikePowersX]

Well thanks a lot " Natalie " you wreaked the song for me :(

[muzicbaby000]

@XGodLikePowersX i dont thik the song's so bad.. but i still like the other version with just him is better..

[TheJsummers77]

I love this song so much!!

[nursebeckii]

Beautiful voices, beautiful words!

[brianov]

Listen to Brian O'Hara myspace and youtube!

[CarKar4Life]

Love this song.!!! 

[Mammaroger2790]

awesome...

[ManaKate]

personally i think the song was just fine with just brett singing it, with natilie..it just seems added on bluntly. i dont think her voice fits well into this song. thats not to say that she doesnt have a beautiful voice, she certainly does. i guess i just prefer the original version.

[Nit1960]

My faith in the new generation has been restored. The sun is shining out there ♥

[taketimetocare]

I'm in awe of the wisdom of his youth. Brett's lyrics take me back to San Francisco in the 60's. He, like so many of that period, has a vision, a perspective that has no dividing line and recognizes a few basic principles. Perhaps we can know heaven if there is "a home for the homeless" and "hope for the hopeless." Otherwise, "What the Hell is Heaven." susan Q. miller

[ShiiComp]

I don't think I like her on this song too much, I think that Brett Dennen truly has a passion for this song that just isn't expressed through Natalie.

[qwaksmash]

i fucking love this song. no lie.

[orquideabonita]

I like this song. Somebody knows where I can find the lyrics?



[SimsKingdom]

@orquideabonita

use google xD

[69staifi]

nice nice nice

[AnnaLgrafton]

LOVE this song. I would love to know where the inspiration came from and what the personal meaning behind the song really is. To be it's an anthem about looking past religion....beautiful lyrics.

[DieegoGod]

@AnnaLgrafton v=hnn1GJZ-lBA&feature=related

[darkmodge]

Love this song. Brilliant arrangement with Natalie's vocals. Fantastic composition. I'm quickly becoming a fan of yours, Brett. Nice work. Keep 'em coming :o)

[pbouri130486]

Great song! Very inspirational...I can definitely see myself driving on a coastline road alone clearing my mind from all daily earthly troubles:)

[sinlooking]

great sound....

[jealousjessie]

Beautiful. The lyrics are just so amazing.

[gookmarathon]

wow such unique voices. amazing.

[qkumber3]

cheesy duets ruin things but this is so complementary : )

[sarasvati1982]

Beautiful, this is now my favorite song of his.. both versions are great but she definitely adds something special to it

[unite4peace88]

This kids got great taste, great voice and a big heart. Natalie is breath-taking as usual. A great song duo

[Sydniewashere13]

This is amazing. I have his sister as a science teacher haha

[Michael87Jackson]

in my opinion she ruined it.

[rock90123]

@Michael87Jackson thanks for sharing Michael Jackson.

[Michael87Jackson]

@rock90123 your welcome...youtube is for sharing opinions about videos and songs and such in case u are new to youtube or are too dumb to know about stuff that...

[rock90123]

@Michael87Jackson thank you for anonymously insulting me on youtube Michael Jackson. Any other exciting comments to share?

[Michael87Jackson]

@rock90123 umm yeah whats with you and sharing?

[SkipperSmackDown]

@Michael87Jackson I'LL SHARE YOU.

[Michael87Jackson]

@SkipperSmackDown share me i want to more popular on youtube! ;P

[dascotton]

I love both of these artists and this version of the song is fantastic.

Anyone who doesn't agree can kiss my chuddies.

[GaFatBoy]

@dascotton LOL!

[HockeyMNStyle]

Natalie is the SHIT!

Brett is GREAT. Great in person, great in the car, great everywhere. She just adds a little som-some to it

[chantcor33]

i love this song.. i play it alot on tap tap if u dont know what that is its a game on my ipod touch

[doonology]

Loved this version, Brett is a music genius and Natalie merchant has an awesome voice :)

[jbee807]

I heard this on Grey's Anatomy for the first time and I have not stopped listening to it since.

[LedChilli]

If these two had a baby--We can only dream :(

[nkerio]

I'm a fan of this guy. Not a fan of most contemporary music, but this guy is a breath of fresh air.

[WaterboyPhx]

Just heard this on Grey's Anatomy tonight.....I like the duet!

[lilgangsta0454]

- that is where i heard it to and i like this song.... its a good song.. and it has a good meaning behind i

[alexleitch37]

I am a full time singer/guitarist and D.J. I eat albums as soul food (3-4 a week) . Rarely does a singer come along that just stuns me (David Gray. Ron Sexsmith, Mark Heard) I bought "There is so much more" and "Hope for the hopeless" and would not play anything else for 3 months straight and no one complained, not once. I bought multiple copies and gave them out like Father Christmas. Never have so many asked "Who sings that song your playing"? I just love this version of Heaven. love alex xox

[ConspiracyTheorie]

Great tune!!!!!! Thanx for posting!! <3 <3

[Zasalamel49]

song, sorry.

[Zasalamel49]

I'm not involved in the "merchant-no-merchant arguement" I just like this ong.

[diverrboy]

Natalie Merchant definitely adds a kick to this song. Personally, I like both versions the same. And no, she "doesn't" fuck it up.  Open your ears.

[AreMySpeakersOn]

@diverrboy lol nice

[diverrboy]

@AreMySpeakersOn  :D

[joeyli87]

i like her voice but i don't like how she doesn't pronounce the words fully.

[ImmaaStarr]

ughhh, original wayy better. Her voice just throws the whole mood of the song..

[dictionaryofthoughts]

oh my gosh. it sucks with her. :(

[bushmecj]

I liked the version of this song without Natalie Merchant.

[9148037158]

ya she did

[iamnotbrian]

retard. movie sucks.

[PinkAndGreenTogether]

i disagree, natalie merchant has one of the most wonderful female voices, and i'm sure brett feels the same way. both are such soulful singers.

[Hoohaa61]

But when the perfect comes, the imperfect will be superseded.

For now we see through a mirror in an enigma, but then face to face.

Now I know in part, but then I shall knowas also I was fully known.

But now remains faith, hope, love, these three;

but the greatest of these is love.1 corinthians 13:1-13

[6xHxAxRxDxYx9]

natalie fucked it up 4 sure =]

[gnbpch]

this song is so sad tear :(

[thextremeprincess]

better without the chick tbh.

[gnbpch]

but u right the chick ruins it

[IishNub]

He wishes that instead of just relying on Heaven to be great we try to make the glory of Heaven on Earth to preserve the peace of future generations. =P

[winnisthatonekid]

tap tap 3

[wordup1234565]

if he is macking fun of heaven then he sucks

[hawtnesszz]

Hes mocking religion rather.

[alex666493]

not really religion, rather the dogma and the layers and layers of rules and regulations

[amrguitars]

he's not making fun of heaven.........he's simply promoting world peace.

[Jasonmrazfanluv]

exactly!

[michiev]

@wordup1234565 Yeah he's mackin on heaven >_> foshure

[wordup1234565]

that makes me mad that this beat is so good and stuff just y make fun of god and stuff do u no what i mean

[tibbsy0]

So, what your saying is.......god has no sense of humor? Look in the mirror, now thats proof.

[wordup1234565]

r u making fun of god i really dont no

[Veprogg]

Brett dennen seems like a saint!

[taliajazel]

lmao that's where I found it too =0

[bosszeroboss]

I love Brett's love handles!

They hang over his pants in such a cute way, it makes guys who work out seem, well, sexy.

But I still like Brett!
