She and Him Performance SXSW 2008 Zooey Deschanel & M. Ward

[ssleepingpills]

What is this song called?

[MilSepic60]

thanks hfggrace. What a pair of matched talents and near perfect yin/yang. The lyrics are sweet like good 60's pop. Have to get these albums.

[Cowboyknowhow]

Zooey brought my attention to this group, but M Ward's musicianship keeps my attention.. though I do like her singing, he just rocks it.

[TheSteveDanut]

Zooey and M. Ward are the perfect duo! They are a force to be reckoned with in the VERY NEAR future!

[SherriMint119]

i wanna see she & him live sooo bad but i feel like ill be the only teenager there :( poop

[joelinamadden]

M.Ward is the 85% of this group

[scheissaufGOOG2E]

zu der musik kann man gut abchillen :)

[lulurules]

[jettjustin6969]

Oh Zooey... just when I thought I had fallen out of love with you... I had to click the mouse.

[tcedmonds]

[ArareFISH]

[SilentEcho33]

word

[songstres07]

when Zooey sings, i smile & do a happy dance :D

[abakewell10]

m. ward for president

[baronmorris]

m ward is awesome. zooey is whiny, interchangeable. her acting is wooden she is the female keanu

[zecraw]

She uses her voice brilliantly.

[Kaysa56]

omg i think i m in love with her, did she have a husband?

[MoonSpinner44]

she is going to marry Ben Gibbard, lead singer of Death Cab for Cutie. sorry for your bad luck lol

[PriestsandParamedics]

She's engaged to the singer of Death Cab For Cutie lol.

[pianoguitar1]

thought she would have better taste haha

[baronmorris]

blech

[dudamonnerat]

shé's too cold.

[baronmorris]

hollow

[LukeWangTW]

i love her

[myway43]

what song is this?

[biktor101]

BLACK HOLE

[ElectronOnline]

i love her voice

[comman55g]

her voice sounds like Daffy Duck on LSD-25 with a reincarnation of linda r.

[RashaTwain]

No one else gets that but you.

[TheOregonTrail]

I also get that.

[RashaTwain]

hmm well what have you proved then?

[Jermacide1]

That he knows history and doesn't hide behind false profits. Or maybe I'm confused....

Only I get that...?

[RashaTwain]

what are are you talkin about?

[Jermacide1]

You know exactly what I'm talking about

[RashaTwain]

haha not really. The dude i originally replied to took down his post so i have no idea what the dispute is.

[Jermacide1]

I don't either. So we should hang out because we have stuff in common.

It was a joke/troll comment. Time to waste, nothing better to do. It doesn't mean anything.

Good day to you!

[RashaTwain]

right,

[Jermacide1]

Yeah, you caught me. I was totally serious and there is vast meaning behind it all.

[RashaTwain]

word.

[flashkid13887]

hahahahha! lovely

[DESCHANElsistersROCK]

This is my favourite song but she sang it kinda fast. But it was sill really good! I wish I could see her live but she'll never come to NZ. :(

[bonosfriedchicken]

hi folks, does anybody know when She & Him Volume 2 is coming out? and what the tour dates and places will be?

thanks, i saw her in atlanta the first tour, it was awesome, but a lot of people gave her a hard time, and i think she was pissed, and didn't stick arounds afterwards to greet her fans, i was upset cause i would've got to meet and talk with her, but i heard people were giving her a hard time on the first tour, i wonder if she'll come back to atlanta.........dunno

[guitarplayer245]

She is the coolest actress there is.

[arikateno]

where is this ? i'd loved to be there and see her with my own eyes, i know it'd be something i'll never forget.

[robotchicken25]

considering this is at SXSW, it's in Austin.

[jadore23dior]

she's brilliant,! Love her, Love the Music and the films, (especially in the new film yes man. )

[ferociousfeet]

It seems that when you get two incredibly talented individuals together in a duet they somehow fly under the radar and you don't hear to much about either of them until they go and make it big on their own. I hope though that this isn't the case here and that i'll be able to listen to Matt and Zooey for years to come. They complement each other so well. I'm glad that some have acknowledged their talent and sound like PASTE magazine, who gave them album of the year. Keep up the timeless tunes.

[axemurderer27]

quite frankly, i think it's much great that they stay under the radar and are only known by those actuvely pursue to enhance their musical palette as opposed to simply listening to whatever's on the radio or the week's top 40

could be my narcissistic complex but there you go.

as far as i'm concerned, everyone else can go listen to zooey's not-as-hot, and less-talented equivalent in katy perry.

[gdaerin]

I'm infatuated with this woman's voice

[PoffyTheCucumber]

@gdaerin - Doesn't take much to make you happy. You must love it when they lie there and do nothing.

[blindbat0086]

I love her voice.

[fhlstables]

After hearing her sing in Elf, she seriously needs to look at singing some Judy Garland songs and I think she'd have a GREAT career in musc. :)

[milkshoes6]

funny enough, she played dorothy in the sci-fi channel's tin man, a retelling of the wizard of oz

[Protector0ne]

It was more a sequel than a retelling. Also, Zooey's character is called DG, not Dorothy.

[thecelticmessiah]

i like her music but as a performer i think she needs to have a little more energy.

[doomtints]

I like Deschanel a lot but her music isn't very notable.

[RonaldVaughan]

who is the gal on bass?

btw,read that Z.D. got a pedal-steel guitar...

if anybody has footage of her playing,let

me know...

[zhibbard]

the girl on bass is Orenda Fink. if you don't know her, she is a great musician and used to be in Azure Ray with Maria Taylor.

[pabs236z]

The girl on bass is Stefanie Drootin NOT Orenda Fink. Stefanie Drootin also plays bass for The Good Life with Tim Kasher.

[SolidSnake225]

Theirs only one word to explain her and its beautiful

[gillnackel248]

i love her, and jenny lewis

[saruh37]

YES my two favorite people ever

[AHingeHellShot]

me too... but just for the sake of imagination... who would win in an indie-songstress brawl? i have to say ms. lewis.

[director23j]

I get lost in her music.

They're great.

[Jaynizzlebizzel]

I love how she is so modest about it. You know? She isnt like all the other actresses trying to pursue music with horrible poppy songs. Awesome!

[wisefuzzyturtle]

she learned to sing before she learned to act~

[AcuraT]

It is eddie brickell and the new bohemians - that is the sound Zooey Deschanel and M. Ward and band have recreated. So weird, brings me back to the 1980s-1990s. Sounds good however.

[wigwam2]

Its spelled Edie not Eddie...just to let ya know! :-)

[pressepapier]

This song is called "black hole".

Great song from the most beautiful girl on earth!

[delis]

She makes me want to be naughty.

[morbidkitty]

i'm not kidding when i say i'm naming my first child Zooey. I love this girl!

[buckleygeneration]

then you should know, if you don't already, that her name actually is pronounced 'Z-oh-ie', not 'z-ooh-ie'. ;)

[bayleyasher]

Are you sure of that, sir? I thought Z-oh-ie was written Zoe. Why would there be two o's in her name if it wasn't Z-ooh-ie? Similarly, would that makes the J.D. Salinger character also "Z-oh-ie"? Because it's been Franny and Z-ooh-ie to me for yeeears.

[buckleygeneration]

I also thought it was Z-ooh-ie, but I recently read an interview where she said it was pronounced z-oh-ie. So, i'm pretty sure.

[ZogBogbean9922]

yeah, it's definitely pronounced Z-oh-ie.  If you want proof, check out her interviews on talk shows (you can find them on youtube). She's awesome.

[Jacey925]

Franny and Zooey is Z-ooh-ie, but Zooey Deschanel is Z-oh-ie, as in Zoe. :)

[Sickboy636]

i love her

[Adriancrazysir]

yeah yeah zooey is great, i agree but give some of the other members some credit..

she&him + two others

wow

thats irritating

[cappstreet89]

yay for zooey

[childstarwars]

i would kill god for zooey

[soucedog]

you said it, man

[childstarwars]

no you did bitch

[soucedog]

ouch

[DealingWithFeelings]

Love her. ♥♥♥

[ArisBates]

Zooey Deschanel she was sexy as hell in the movie the happening

[stankey626]

She is just too perfect

[dabbey001]

agreed!!

[kurotakka]

thats an understatement

[jttxyz]

Looking foward to the tour this summer!

[aling1982]

I love that she can just sing. so many movie gals (or tv show chicklets) make bad music. This album in amazing, her natural talent is something id kill for.

[RdKurama]

I really like this song! What song is this?

[excentric920]

It's called Black Hole by She & Him

[MistyWitch2601]

I would love to hear her sing jazz

[bonosfriedchicken]

Worship Yeshua/Jesus and him alone, for he alone is God, God created music to glorify himself,..........

[DeltaNC]

I prefer sponge cake to fruitcake.

[MistyWitch2601]

LMAO!

[utubesucks2003]

anyone know if the bass chick has a myspace or anything? she is really hot too

[middlecommodity]

she's also the bass player for Bright Eyes and some of the other Saddle Creek bands

[middlecommodity]

I meant about the bass player, I believe her name is Stephanie Drootin

[thrillaveza]

as well as the bassist of the good life :D but i think you covered that saying saddle creek bands

[stefunnyartsyou]

Girl crush.

[evanathsma]

God, you can say what you will about the state of things in our country, but it's been the trend in the past that in times of political and social unrest the music improves exponentially. I love this. She's a great songwriter with a beautiful voice. We need a little Patsy Cline these days. I wish more of this kind of sensibility in music. Though, with the breakdown of the recording industry, we are pretty close to determining the market for ourselves... if everybody wasn't downloading music.

[yvette74731]

love her so much!

she is my dream girl.

beautiful!charming! really talented!

chic and stylish! has taste!

[bonosfriedchicken]

zooey's 'singing' sounds like some annoying auctioneer..........

[bonosfriedchicken]

wow, u people must worship this person.....

[CelineCrazy1]

I do! Her and her big sis are amazing!

[bonosfriedchicken]

puke*vomit, arggh, weak, really weak, this girl can not only not act, she cant sing as well, and the music is terrible,......i think she has a singing voice and a great potential to be a singer, and maybe an actor, but she needs a voice coach, or something, is this the way she really sings??? with that 'twang', she's not from the south, i dont think, and she sure doesn't talk the way she 'sings'........man, what a mess, it sounds like patsy cline at times, and other times, just......off key

[peteranton]

You suck ass! ZIOnist redneck! Vote for mccain!

[lizzybennet87]

If you actually listen the entire album then you realize that you made it to sound like a vintage country record. She is not aiming to be an over manufactured pop star like a lot of people. BTW you do not need to be from the south to have a "twang" and nobody sings the way they talk. Lets here what you sound like live

[bonosfriedchicken]

theres SCORES of people who sing the way they talk, and even talk the way they sing, where have you been?..............

[modemrider138]

bonosfriedchicken your a fucken moron, go fuck your sister.

[westudi]

I've been wanting to hear her sing ever since Elf. Bridge to Terabithia just reinforced that, and I'm so glad she and the group have put out an album.

[surfrocksound]

hah dude im right in front of you!

crazy.

small world

[versleciel]

Great sound quality - concert footage is usually so bad. :)

[wondertoonel76]

fantastic. I just finished listening to "volume one" and have to say that Zooey's natural beauty and detached loveliness are eclipsed only by her enchanting voice. Thanks Zooey and Mr. Ward for making me smile~!

[citybear1388]

while i was watching this, i was thinking to myself how irritating i would have been standing among that crowd. how many 20 something yr old men were wearing flannel that day i wonder...spare me lord

[boatsandsails]

I really think your missing the point of the video lol

[hfggrace]

actually it was very annoying. but worth it. zooey is amazing.

[Tomcuk]

Thank you for the video. Really hoping these guys make their way over to England sometime for a tour.

[Sis2ACsrSalad]

I like how her voice. It sounds like old country, like from the '20s. It sounds so cool. I really like it. Like from the sound of "Oh, Brother Where Art Thou"

[ernievzla]

she is so underrated

im alergic to anything Hollywood, its just so fake and shallow, but she seems inmune to all that bullshit

it doesnt surprise me that her best films are these low budget indie movies, that are great but still very underrated

im a big fan, not just because shes cute and adorable (wich she undoubtly is) but because she is a true talented artist

[cocklicklad]

are you gonna keep reposting this same post on all the zooey deschanel videos? that is so gay yo.

[ernievzla]

it was just 2 videos jackass and it wasnt even on purpose bitch

[musicphan1]

Why does every infantile jerk off have to call something they don't agree with "gay"? I would think someone that has the name cocklicklad, they wouldn't use that word like that. I don't know, I just think its so "gay".

[nantayyy716]

you're brilliant.

[harryD714]

and that tamborine's so cool

[harryD714]

I love her voice

[roja545]

I would like to bang her while she's singing.

[gogetterslive]

M. Ward? Without his hat?

[squishykitty3]

how does she sound like a frog? listen to as i lay dying and then compare...lol

but it's you guys opinion so w.e

[captain07234]

I know its been said before, but she has got to be one of the most underrated women in hollywood.

[girliehun]

i hate her she cant sing! all she does i make that forggy voice

[squishykitty3]

if you dont like it then dont post stupid shit dumb ass......

[hfggrace]

that made no sense at all.

[squishykitty3]

well put a coma between shit and dumb ass..lol

sry for the bad grammer

[frighteningbolt]

holy shit she does kind of sound like a frog.

[girliehun]

thankyou! i love M ward but ive lost so much respect for him when he started singing with her. 1st, she cant sing and sounds like a frog! 2nd, all the acting abitliy she has is acting like some cliche, stuck up emo hipster!

[frighteningbolt]

i think she is overrated, but overall not bad. but yes, i certainly prefer m. ward as well.

[squishykitty3]

im in love with zoey!!! her voice is so beautiful and she is so hot!!!!

[NeedsSemicolon]

Nice! Thanks for posting this. By the way, "she&him" is a very effective tag.

[ImGeneParmesan]

She has such a beautiful voice.

[quickford]

Zooey is awesome.

[ykonstanza]

love this one!!!

[modemrider138]

I love this song!!!!!

[withoutatracie]

Thanks for posting the vid for "Black Hole"!

I was listening online when the set was broadcast, but I had been hoping that someone would put up some video from it :)

Did you happen to get any vids of "This is Not a Test" or "Change is Hard"?

[hfggrace]

You're welcome. I didn't get any other footage. I wish I had.
