WOW!! OMG!! Its's FREAKING AWESOME!!! :D I can't believe it's not used! In fact .. I'm amazed that it hasn't been snapped up by an advertising agency or maybe a TV network.. It's deserves to be aired on a regular basis, to fully appreciate it's complexity! I love it so much! It is an exceptional piece of work!! I hope someone who appreciate's art , makes you an offer that reflects it's worth....and show everyone what a huge mistake it was, not to use it! YEAH! :D hehe! <3 LOVE IT MAN!!! <3
I have been so deeply unimpressed with music for years... yes, I discovered this guy because of the Walk Off the Earth cover... so I'm a latecomer to the party... but he is AMAZING. Albums = bought.
gotye is right about this particular video, IT DOES NOT WORK AT ALL!! its just like showing what you can do with your hands without giving any sens to lyrics or to the music. absolutely of no interest. the concept might be interesting if it is worked the right way.
Mam 14 lat a moje koleżanki słuchają Johnas Brothers czy jak to się tam pisze i innych dennych "piosenkarzy". Ja tam słucham mi.n Dżemu, Happysad, Coma czy Strachy na Lachy. co do utworu :Gotye ma świetne piosenki, w szczególności "Somebody that i used to know" i tą. Bez nich nie umiem zasnąć! Taka prawda... ;D
I´ve seen the video with my two kids Paul and Emma (4 and 7 years old) and we were fascinated. We are trying times, imitating the characters with our hands. We will certainly have a lot of fun. Thank you for uploading the video and regards from Germany :0)
I love the song and video. Like James Bond, LSD, and a deeper understanding of human relations all wrapped into one! The more I watch it, the more I realize the creators of this awesome clip, in it's entirety, are far more intellectually advanced than I.
I agree with you by the way aniag that they are both very talented. :-) Another very underrated and incredibly talented band that is mostly Australian is the Church. Amazing to me that most people forgot about them. They have been together for more than 30 years and are still making really sublime music. Ok I am done with my Church plug. lol IT pissed me off when I was in Australia for 3 months how few Aussies knew about the Church! Grrrrr :-) Ok I'm really done now.....
@MyDreamingMistress They actually all have a very similar style. Might seem that way, because he doesn't often use the standard pop chord progressions in C major for example :-).
