[iampeppermintpatty]

cute

[wolves4life93]

Awesome live!

[fissetyv01]

2.06 wtf is he doing?

[fissetyv01]

WGHAT FUCKING GUITAR IS THIS! I WANT ONE 4 CHRISTMAS I NEED TO KNOW SO I CANT GET IT INTIME..

[heron1991]

@fissetyv01 k. yairi rag65

[SomeThatCallMeTimbo]

@fissetyv01 Not sure exactly what brand but I do believe he plays a classical guitar (nylon strings)

[94kooks]

which guitar he is using??

[heron1991]

@94kooks k. yairi rag65

[DieByGuillotine]

He's a cutie. <3

[CDIDDY53]

Wonder what their new stuff will be like? Hope they stay true to this brand. Have some great videos from their concert in the Milk Market in Limerick

[khaledtaalab]

Massively bland. This was a link from 'Rip It Up' by Orange Juice. Which is miles better

[f3cktherich]

his hair reminds me of Keren Ann's in her video 'My name is trouble' haha hwatch?v=R-0Qx8HwlW4

[JCole131]

22 people mistaked dislike for dis-i-like

[HipToTheSoul]

Is it bad if I have the same haircut as him? lol

[himaANDtheGOODFELLAS]

it's not about haircut, it was music, and he done well.

[soldat182]

The hair makes him look like joan of arc

[spiritbennett]

i love this song :)



[xoxBreannaxox123]

one of my favourite songs ever <3.

[raymondanthonypirog]

I am in love with this band. great song.

[pezdeaguaturbia]

Sounds like Bright Eyes.

[TheFryersmuck]

You bunch of Loathsome shower of unschooled fecking Omathons!!

It was me who cut Christy's hair and I told him it made him look the spit of Tom Jones!!

He was so Chuffed he threw me a Pound Tip!!

These fecking Rock stars!!

[pastanagapodrida]

i love his haircut

[MochizMuM]

@pastanagapodrida id dip my balls in it for sure

[ohiogizajmazakisan]

Best haircut ever.

[SshhBatman]

@ohiogizajmazakisan he cuts it himself apparently :-)

[10angrytigers]

His music is so much better then all of his videos. To me there is a complete disconnect between them. The videos almost ruin the music for me.



[TheAsher37]

The haircut doesn't matter, he rocks.

[cocacolacriminal]

Does anyone know what kind of guitar that is?

[van1980]

@cocacolacriminal I don't know if it's a Martin, but it looks exactly like an OO-15SM by Martin. It's a 12 fret all mahogany. The OOO-15SM is an AMAZING guitar...it's just one size bigger than that one.

[TheRantsOfABookWorm]

perfect for new film and the book of One Day

[TheKerleyFries]

why is top comment just the lyrics of the song?

[MrDallindotcom]

@skiddo94 its supposed to be abrupt:) Its awesome eh??

[xYourVideoSuckedx]

i like

[dylanf450]

I FINALLY FOUND IT!!! IV BEEN LOOKING FOR IT FOR AGES :D

[skiddo94]

This is my first time listening to Villagers. The ending seemed kind of abrupt.

[TheFryersmuck]

Its as if we stood and witnessed a returning prophet performing a miracle and all we could comment on was the style of his sandals.

It seems that youth is truly wasted on the young.

Whats the point in being creative when we keep undoing whats been done.

[marinaughty]

i love you connoorrr

[elinee34]

wonderful song, awful haircut

[stephanzo1]

quavery voice, awesome lyrics, awesome indie band, innovative sound... and they're both named connor.. and they look somewhat alike in my opinion. Villagers and Bright Eyes are the two best bands hahahaha

[BeckettSimpleton]

This song rocks my socks off!

[SuckMyBlondeSouth]

I love his hair, wtf.

[AmateurSurgeonThe3rd]

Bob Dylan is overrated

[DynamiteWhufc]

@AmateurSurgeonThe3rd I don't think he can be overrated, people who suggest he's a great singer obviously don'y understand him. Lyrically he's unparalleled, anyway this is pointless. Bob Dylan is a legend, Villagers are awesome.

[JaysunHamilton]

I'd say he sounds more like Paul SImon than Bob Dylan.

[wheelmacneil]

@TheDrawbridge Listen to Dylan's "Positively 4th Street"

[winryrocky]

If this were a verizon commercial, I'd actually buy something at verizon.

[melvin25bmx]

Just saw them at the Liquid rooms in Edinburgh, they were AMAZING!! His voice is so haunting, highly recommend seeing them!

[sheilasaidd]

He kinda looks like Cameron from Ferris Bueller.

[Blookulele]

@sheilasaidd Ohmigod, yes.

[katharientje10]

Amazing



[aido179]

remind anyone of the ad on jamaica?  "Can you hear me now?"

watch?v=Uxf0AL-h4zI

[valjester805]

0:58 The Man Who Sold the World?

[TheSchoolsux345]

@valjester805 good call

[manelsl29]

@valjester805 the bass line? yeah noticed it too

[ohhcmoncmoncmon]

OK so i really like this song, and those other songs from this album too. what i don't like is this stupid video and the fact that there's always conor and excuse me but i thought there were more members in this band and i for one want to see them :)

[CramoJJEEDC]

@ohhcmoncmoncmon check out 'the pact', that has all of them in the video, and is a great song.

[TomTitTwitter]

@yougottaloveit100 KNOB!!

Conor is a genius, yougottaloveit100 is a KNOB!

[TheBubblegumGuy8000]

lu v this song its unreal!

[Heathathnasoodua]

Can ya hear me now?

[KJB2010]

The first rule of fight club is, you do not talk about fight club.

[lanthropologue]

what kind of guitar is he playing? Is it a 3/4?

[beehivethe3rd]

@yougottaloveit100 Because it's good and people have different opions about what music they like, if you don't like it then don't watch it, but i personally like it and i think a few people like it as it has 677 people liking it and 17 people disliking it.

[yeluderye]

AWWWWWWH He is so coot

[164CaliforniaGirl]

Awesome musician!!!! Wish he would tour the USA. Or even do Last Call w/ Carson again. I listen to his cd every day.  Cant wait for another cd and dvd!!!

[164CaliforniaGirl]

Outstanding. I wish there was a DVD with Conor's videos to his songs. I sit at my computer here in the USA and watch on You Tube. He is so handsome and I love his hair cut!!!!

[omegalipsis]

Esra Koenig from vampire weekend!!!

[WesleyDieson77]

Worst haircut ever.

[deisedaisy97]

@WesleyDieson77 just because someone has an individual style and doesn't follow the main-stream identical , souless and boring trends does not make it bad.: it makes it him. personally , i like individuality.also, what does someones appearance with all DUE respect .

[WesleyDieson77]

@deisedaisy97

I'm not talking about whether it is fashionable or not. I'm talking about how visually offensive it is.

I do really like the kid..

[van1980]

@WesleyDieson77 I guess you haven't seen Liam Gallagher's "Dora the Explorer" hair cut? :)

[Ferbbie]

@WesleyDieson77 Screw the haircut, listen to the music.

[lizzielonglegs]

What a babe.

[123147253698]

I WANT TO CHARGE AT CONOR, SCOOP HIM UP IN A HUG, AND SPIN HIM AROUND!!!! RAUGUHLAUGUHLAUGUH!

[muriciaable]

I like this song!!! And the singer's eyes as well!!! :-)

[tfitzpatrick42]

He has in incredibly long neck

[beehivethe3rd]

@Therevolution256 Don't watch it then if you dont like it

[TheMarisol1907]

me encantaa

[richtotheelle]

No words for how much I love this song.

[jussymucky]

He has a guitar-tick. He sings-tick. He sounds like Bob Dylan!? Get a grip. Nice song all the same

[adamrt2003]

"I'm spitting words, but there's no meaning", around thirty seconds in has a Mr Tambourine Man feel to it. The song on the whole doesn't remind me of Dylan, though.

[kazbaz2011]

Great voice, beautiful song.

[Donal44F]

doesnt sound like bob dylan to me,..

fionn reagan does though *protection racket etc,..

[amandamurphy1132]

i think its like a dillon song

[maltbiem]

He looks like a skinny friar tuck.

[MochizMuM]

@maltbiem hahah awww.. that is so cute lol

[yannin90s]

can u hear me now..

[eabhawww]

Whatta babe.

[JackPostich]

Is that the guy from ferris bulers day off?

[TheJodiMan]

@JackPostich No...

[lufc550]

@JackPostich

Actually made me piss myself laughing

[fuzzyflpperz]

The Villagers really remind me of Simon and Garfunkel. It's good to see that this style of music hasn't died out yet. It brings hope to the music of our time.

[cuss83]

it does remind me of a bob dylan song tho at a certain part only. not saying for a second the villagers are like bob dylan.....dream the fuck on!

[RazzleRed543]

"He lies awake, in his bed, every night, devising ways to conceal the strain

She never tells of her midnight fears or admits that she does the same

They never meet, never touch, never speak, and for one tired old refrain

Can you heear me now?"

[JodieTotman]

@RazzleRed543 best lyrics ever

[jamydoyle]

all i hear when this man sings is.... im a depressing bastard ray darcy is seriously overplaying this muc on the radio.... please ray stop! please :(

[SMRDOI]

@jamydoyle so overplayed and depressing you just had to go on youtube to listen to it? Stop kidding yourself, you love it!

[jugwinedrunk]

This whole album is fantastic!

[Seanachan91]

@Steoandnoodles1 I saw so i watch you from afar live last summer and they were pretty cool too, just thrashin guitars, fun for the whole family!

[nautae93]

anyone else think he kinda looks like joseph gordon levvviiittt? :D

[Seanachan91]

One of a small minority of decent Irish acts around these days, you can keep your Snow Patrols and your Script...

[matrixman1969]

Is that the chick from Everything But The Girl?

[v8viva]

@matrixman1969 lol cruel

[brothersport92]

i like

[paleszbalesz]

Irish accent! I love it!! :)

[goatboyify]

Love the Villagers, they are really amazing but their last two videos have been damp squibs. I think Conor could do a better job if he was let. The first video for Becoming a Jackal was a cracker.

[XxSorchasuexX]

i love this song!! and am so glad their Irish but the video is just pointless :/

[ToPsHoPjUnKy]

i love them :) Does anyone know what part of ireland theyre from? Theyre not dubs are they?

[rollieloughran]

@ToPsHoPjUnKy yeah they're from Dublin = )

[9blackheart9]

@ToPsHoPjUnKy dun laoghaire lad

[Lotgenootje]

Kan me wel vinden in zijn teksten, lekker apart en toch ook niet! jep, love the lyrics!

[AaMmEeRrIiTtEeNn]

nawrrr i love Villagers so much :') <3

[joecooke11]

i love this song so much. Its just amazing

[richdebrun]

Going to see conorj and the band tomorrow and cant flippin wait! Oh @hanuusanus666 the QOTSA are brilliant live aswell, but have respect for this man a top lyricist and musician. Dont restrict yourself to only one style of chooon butty :-)

[hanusanus666]

fuck this, QOTSA all the way

[nikav8]

great tune - awful video

pity the poor marketing dept. they haven't had a good idea in years

[TheDrawbridge]

This isn't bad at all. But, anyone who thinks this sounds like Bob Dylan has clearly never heard Bob Dylan.

[RezrovIV]

@TheDrawbridge I think you're wrong about that Dylan comment. The verse is absolutely, you might say 'postively' "4th street." It's just in an easier key to play on guitar.

[theamsterdamlover]

@RezrovIV I thought this was one of Dylan's unreleased when i first heard it on the raidio!

[cuss83]

it reminds me of a bob dylan song in a certain part of it tho.

[ciaracustard]

@TheDrawbridge I agree. It's bad enough when people compare a a musician to another but it's even worse when they aren't even right. Obviously everyone has influences but ou should appreciate a song and an artist as a piece that is beautiful by itself.

[LimerickWarrior1]

@TheDrawbridge U serious, the way he sings is very similar to Bob Dylan. First time i heard it i thought it was Bob Dylan.

[branoaltrock]

@LimerickWarrior1 This most definately sounds nothing like Bob Dylan.

[LimerickWarrior1]

@branoaltrock

You clearly didnt read what i typed, i said the ways he sings is very similar in otherwords the style of music. Funny thing is there are alot of people who thinks his style is similar

[branoaltrock]

@LimerickWarrior1 What i heard actually, was you saying "First time i heard it i thought it was Bob Dylan". That doesn't sound at all like "very similar, in other words the style of music" but whatever, i'll let you have your opinion. What this guy reminds me of though, is Bright Eyes, does anyone agree?

[9191Mel]

@branoaltrock If you mean the song from watership down, i agree.

[xlucyintheskyx1]

@branoaltrock reminds me of bright eyes too, and his name is conor like conor oberst.

[lozzybozzy234]

@LimerickWarrior1 Are you some kind of idiot?

[trixapete]

@TheDrawbridge i dunno, a couple of times it does sound like it. i might not have noticed if you hadnt mentioned it though. when he says 'im dreaming' at 1:19 it sounds a bit like parts of you got a lot of nerve, as does the tune a little

[SAMDARBY123]

@TheDrawbridge TBH i think his voice is more like alex turner's

[horrorshowbeau]

@TheDrawbridge This is amazing, but it definately draws at least some influence from Dyl'. Bob Dylan is a fucking planet and a magician when it comes to music. I wouldn't be surprised if he took loads of elements from other Dylan records. It's what every musician does, especially Dyl' himself, he was a fiend for that sorta thing :D

[wheelmacneil]

@TheDrawbridge Listen to Dylan's "Positively 4th Street"

[siouxsinty]

@TheDrawbridge true, he'd sing Dylan under the table

[benry007]

that guy is so weird.. good but weird

[twilightgirl4343]

i hate living in USA right now.....

[twilightgirl4343]

11 people.... aw screw it they just are bad people

[qwer8907]

heard this song on radio sounds so much like ealier DYLAN deserves to be heard over and over

[theamsterdamlover]

This reminds me a bit of Fionn Regan, and even some Bob Dylan:) Great song!

[brighton59]

Quality track, off to see them play in Manchester on the 29th Nov.....!!!!!

[AlissaK1994]

he was great at london calling!

[RororowDaBoat]

Can't wait to see yee in Galway in Dec!

[goombamakker]

love it!

[thecorkblackcat1]

we might be in recession in ireland but we have some great new talent. long may it continue.check out james vincent mc morrow also.

[dcos74]

Brilliant song doesn t get enough radio play thats for sure

[seeingblueband]

Just discovered this band on the music worth hearing blog. I can't believe i've survived without them!!!

[THATSKABLAMI]

more people listen to this!

this is how to write music

[Shedaisy13]

His voice is painful to listen to.

[MyNamesToast]

@Shedaisy13 I hope you mean this in a good way?

[Scoob505]

@Shedaisy13 Your words are painful to read. Because....they are ....shit. yeah

[TheJodiMan]

@Shedaisy13 You better be saying that in a good way.

[ninaborhan]

can't wait to see him live in Singapore in January! awesome vocals and quirky songwriting.

[veryclevertrevor]

I like it when he looks directly in to the camera... it makes me feel like he is looking straight at me (sigh) (:

[wBAJKOnur]

love this song, it's beautiful! but the video would be so much finer, if there wasn't that ghost version of him appearing from time to time:/ it just looks cheap and senseless, imo.

[hufclufc]

he will write a musical one day..............can you hear me now?

[reidkarr]

he sounds a lot like chris martin

[bonjovi4100]

votre this up if 2:46 through 2:55 reminds ya of the mars add haha great song tough my favourite on the album didnt no it was released and am now upset because it used to be just my song now 51,135 ppl no it :(

[cokemule22]

brilliant song instant classic

[itsmartystube]

One of the best songs of the yeah if not the best

[elnam32]

Great song !!!!! can pls someone tell me where to find the lyrics or post them ? thank you

[MonkeyOnTheContrary]

I like his hair. It's like a girl's haircut.

[MEGAINDIEROCK]

Awesome new Irish singer songwriter:=)

[bheanrua]

sooo looking forward to the cork gig (dec 15th), the guy's fantastic!!!!

[kbrazzill]

[kbrazzill]

[mysterious252]

i wonder does his mom cut his hair ?

[hazzaa]

[cooldood581]

[abbielovesoasis]

@cooldood581 voice reminds me of morrissey in parts :P

[ogvert]

Exquisite song. Exquisite boy :)

[mimivable]
