  • No joke, I never pay for music. But it's kinda hard to listen and not to buy yours.

  • I fall in love with Lauren everytime i watch this, shes just so beautiful and talented!

  • Absolutely my new favorite artist, and my thanks for turning me on to Pomplamoose and Ryan. This song, however, is one of the most beautifully done in a long time. Purchased the pre-order and wish you the best of success for the future.

  • This song still kills me. You're amazing.

  • Lauren Help! The Download is not working! I want to give you money!

  • Lovely Song!! Please check out my music if you can <3

  • HOW is it possible to dislike THIS?? Maybe these people had no sound turned on ;)

  • @medolin1976 Even if they didn't, how could they dislike Lauren's face?

  • I really admire your creactivity.the way you make your music and covers,it's incredible.

  • Hey Lauren, is Andy Hull one of your influences? The style of your singing reminds me so much of him. Love your music :)

  • Hello, Lauren, I'm so depressed! I can't download this song which I want so badly that I would die for it - the link below the video does not function. And as bbullock said - I still can't download it from your webpage. Please, what can I do or where else I can buy this song?

  • I'm shivering all over... Your lyrics are beautiful, and the arrangement fits sooo well the feelings your lyrics gave. And your voices are matching perfectly. I love that song and you guys too <3

  • Love how you build your tunes up, adding pieces as it goes along, very nice!

  • I don't know if you are familiar with K's choice? It's a great Belgian band, and the leadsinger has got a beautiful voice.. Your voice and style of music are very much alike.. Maybe you will like it to! Anyway, great song, great feeling to it! Greetings from Holland

  • I want to download this song, but it is not at that link :(

  • Did this beauty of a songy make to I tunes yet?

  • These 2 are a great combo! Great song! Please do more stuff together.....one of the best songs I've heard in a long time.

  • I love your voice, music and lyrics. Makes me feel young again and again.

  • awsome music..keep up the good work..

  • This is so beautiful. You are both seriously stupid talented.

    Lauren, your lyrics are amazing. i wish I had a better way with words to describe just how honest and poetic and raw they are.

  • One of the best songs I've ever heard. Thank you for sharing it on YouTube so I could discover your beautiful music.

  • Two very talented musicians that are going to go far in the music world. Lauren - you are a modern day poet. Keep it up! Ryan - you are an amazing musician and lyricist! You both have AMAZING talent!

  • I'm stunned... The perfomance and arrangement are wonderful, but the lyrics are leaving me breathless! Pure, honest poetic beauty! Brilliant!

  • So beautiful.

  • Hi, Lauren. So, I wanted to DL this song, but your site doesn't seem to have it up (or, indeed, any DLs), nor can I find it on Amazon or iTunes.

    So, I downed the video and converted it to an MP3. Do you have a PayPal or Money Revolution, so I can send you money for it?

  • @bbullock Her mp3 page us up and working now. You can follow the link in the video description and pay her through PayPal :)

  • @bbullock Hey thank you! My site is functioning again, so you should be able to use the mp3 store for that (under "music"). I really appreciate your honesty!

  • @LaurenOC12 Finally remembered, and went and bought the download (my mind is like a steel sieve), so all is fair. Thanks for the music, Lauren.

  • I can't get this song out of my head, and I don't want to. That line at the end really gets me every time, the one about not being born to die. Thank you, you two wonderfully talented, beautiful people.

  • WOW!

  • beautiful arrangement and as you say Miss Lauren- stupid talented! lol

  • I am addicted to this song.

  • This. Is. MindBlowingly. Awesome. Can someone please post a tutorial for the guitar part?

  • Why'd you delete some of your videos!? That's the one thing you've done that I don't like. At least replace them wiff new ones...

  • this cute song needs a cute music video <3

  • SUPERB.

  • Chords chords or tabs tabs please please. :)

  • The voice of an angel!! Thanks to HR from 88BillTCat88 for sending me here....Your newest fan as just been created!! UR AWESOME :)

  • Holy Cow!!! What a great song. I'm glad I found it. You Guys did a great job here.....

  • thank you

  • So awesome. wow. 

  • Exquisito, placentero, alimenta mi alma.

  • amazing what you can do nowaydays, wit a bit a talent, inniciative and some good recording bits and bobs........this is why musicians are scared about.......their chair in the famous hall of fame, cos they feel overshadowed

  • I lust love this song.

  • Jesus, so beautiful.

  • Hey Lauren!!

    I'm a big fan!! I think your music amazing!!!

    Kisses Carol

    By: Brazil =-)

  • Will someone please tell me that this isn't the greatest song ever!

    It is .. It is..

  • This was the Bass player on the Ben Folds show! Yay connections! :D

  • this song has been in my head for days now... I love it! What a great talent... love the arrangement and harmonies with Ryan.

  • I know everything you say afterwards the video as if they're actually lyrics to.

  • Very well done!

  • Someone I heart sent me this link...I would do anything 2 b with him anything!He is as beautiful as this song & holds the map 2 my heart...hope he straightens the lines 2 me.I luv this song!

  • nice arrangement!

  • Continually impressed by your (and troupe) performances. Love this song - art and poetry, If you are all really doing all this on a shoestring (at home video, etc) then big budget is a ruse. Along with your sound and style, even watching seems to bring the viewer into the living room, closer to home. I'd hate to think that any future recordings would be done different. Congrats on all your success, and to come.

  • Does anybody have the chords? D;

  • @ph0bicc C,Em, F for the verse

    F, C, Em, F, G, Am, C, G, C for the chorus

  • As good as the best! Super song, super video - cracking production, editing etc. Thanks for posting it and giving us some cheer and pleasure!

  • Good use of the male vocals, the lyrics are awesome.

  • beautiful music

    

  • Absolutely fabulous! I can't get enough. Keep up the good work!

  • Its realy good :)

  • This is my happy song :)

  • Love.

  • Fear @Rytown. Ryan Lerman is scary talented. 

  • You two sound good together. Not that Lauren isn't also fantastic on her own.

  • The best, love it, Great Job, Thank you.

  • 0:00

    AGAIN AGAIN!!

  • i love the way u speak the " think that " !!!

  • So very good. I love you.

  • Girl, you're amazing!!! I can't stop listen to your songs! Keep it up!

  • WHERE CAN I BUY THIS SONG!? i can't find it listed on your myspace :(

  • i've been listening to allot of pomplamoose and my terrible friend lately, but today is the first time i checked out your solo stuff.  ryan is not the only one who is stupid talented! this is the best song i've heard in a long time... by anyone.

  • Anyone know how to get sheet music for this?

  • It occurs to me while watching this that Ryan is very talented, but you can tell who wrote this song - Ryan is performing his piece well enough, but Lauren is throwing her heart and soul into it as she sings. I can't help it, but when I watch this video I find myself wondering who she's singing to - they must be very special, indeed. :D

  • I listened to this song so much today that I just had to go buy it

  • i listen to this song at least twice a day

  • this is real music, how are such crap artist up on the top listened to list on here with over 100,000 views and this AMAZING song is so unheard, its shocking this is real music, just pure talent.

  • VENTURAAAA I'm NEXT TO VENTURAAAA D: I MISSED IT HUUUH?!? D: NUUUU!!!!

  • I don't usually say this ... but I think I have a crush on you :O

  • you give me hope for the future of music

  • The live performance in Brooklyn last week brought tears of joy to my eyes. Thanks Lauren :)

  • i love your voice

  • Comment removed

  • Saw you two perform in Philly last night, you guys are great!

  • Btw, will you marry me? :)

  • I was completely blown away by this homespun video. You are a true talent. If I still had a record label, I would sign you in an instant. Keep doing what you're doing and stay true to yourself.

  • Comment removed

  • I come back to this every month or so to listen. Amazing arrangement and musicianship at work. Keep doing what you're doing because I know it inspires many.

  • So cute.. love it.

  • Lauren, your gifts make me want to learn to play guitar. Once I learn to play guitar, I can sing your songs and play them very badly and make people really want me to shut up so they can go find your music so they can hear it done right.

    ...just doin' my part!

  • This deserves immediate airplay, EVERYWHERE! Its Perfect!

  • it kinda gives you the shivers in such a good way

  • I love Tina Dico! :)

  • the more I listen, the better this tune gets :)

  • This song makes me feel like air isn't necessary.

  • Wow.... awesome sound on the vocals!!! it hits you right away... keep it up

  • Lauren, you make the most beautiful lyrics I ever hear

  • Lauren are you coming out with another Album soon? sitting in chairs was an awsome start then you changed gears(no pun intended) and did the "my terrible friend album which was sweet. if you ever do an irish folk album or thought maybe or not at all my vote is do it. one more thing Portland Or awaits you lots of open venues if you need help respond and I'll be happy to help.

    hope to hear response even if its a no. take care

  • This song sounds so vulnerable... It's one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. Ever.

  • @ManbirdMan No. Real Lauren O'Connell.

  • @xxsilveyxx nah, fake pomplamoose.

  • @ManbirdMan Look who joined YouTube first...

  • @xxsilveyxx irrelevant.

  • @ManbirdMan Indeed. Completely irrelavant.

  • @ManbirdMan Lauren actually has an act with Nataly Dawn from Pomplamoose called My Terrible Friend. Pomplamoose makes campier songs than Lauren, who, I think, has a more serious tone to most of her songs. I love Pomplamoose tho. Jack Conte is such a boss.

  • @ManbirdMan Whawhawhaaat? TWO youtube channels do videosongs?! Blasphemy! They both incorporate instruments and vocals into their videos, therefor they MUST be the same genre! Fake and ghey!

    Um, no. You should try listening to music. They have completely different styles, and videosongs have become a medium that several youtubers use nowadays. Pomplamoose: electronica/punk rock of Jack Conte with the soft, somewhat jazzy indie rock style of Nataly Dawn. Lauren is more of a folksy feel.

  • @ManbirdMan i like to lol at people who cant tell different kinds of music from each other.

  • @Beloved0fTheEndless and what exactly is the difference? I wrote this song with my ass. Don't be so easily impressed. The ''best'' part of this song is the guitar part, which she isn't even playing. Plus, she has a lisp, it's not like her voice is anything special.

  • Is that the guy from Heroes?????

  • god he's hot

    

  • Can we get a Lauren O'Connell, Julia Nunes, Ryan Lerman, Nataly Dawn, Jack Conte, Ian Axel collaboration? Heads would explode I think...

  • @SecretMusical add in Greg Holden and it might all just be too much

  • @SecretMusical

    Sounds like a Youtube version of The New Pornographers.

    ... I would kill for that D=

  • Comment removed

  • @SecretMusical When Pomplamoose did the east coast tour it was Nataly, Jack, Ryan and Lauren... No Julia but our heads almost exploded. it was more of an slow, oozy loss of the mind to euphoria

  • @Celsetier Julia actually did show up in Brooklyn! It was incredible.

  • @Lisosaur whaaat?! lucky! Philly got gypped! haha!

  • what a beautiful song! I love you Lauren!

  • 2:43 until the end has some pretty boss lyrics. "Cuz' I believe or at least I try that nothing is just born to die, cuz I think that we'd all just wait, yeah I think that we'd all just wait if that were true." It's feels like a musical exhale...sigh.

    -Ro

  • What the hell is going on cause this song absolutely rocks

  • Lauren, can you send me chords for this song? Cuz I love it U_U

  • I keep coming back to this song. It's weird, but Lauren gets prettier for every time I see her. Talent = beauty, I guess. Ryan Lerman has the kissiest lips I've ever seen, no homo.

    Now make babies, you two. Don't mind me, I'm just gonna document this for... posterity.

  • Lauren O'Connell and Julia Nunes together again please

  • Something tells me that that Cajon must have some pretty bad foot odor by now.

  • Tabs please! Please please please!

  • i've probably listened to this song about 100 times now trying to learn the words because i love it so much! YOU ARE SO AMAZING! :D

  • Pretty frickin' stellar bro!

  • My terrible Friend is one of my favorites ,but after this Im not so sure???? Lauren you just get better & better!! Keep it Rolling Girl!

  • You two are perfect together as artists. I'm weird and don't usually like duets (esp. male/female duets), but this is fantastic.

  • B-E-A-UTIFUL.

  • Are we watching another Alison Krauss. Good luck and Thanks for sharing your gift.

  • oh jesus you're friend is cute. oh and great vid btw...

  • You two are so hot I can't stand it.

  • To the interface designers: Relocate the I don't like button further away from the I like button. 11 people pressed it by mistake.

  • Lauren. Between you and Nataly - I am torn. I love your music both.

    Thank you. This song is beautiful.

  • One of my favourite songs as of late. Thanks for this.

  • i think i just found my wedding song. thank you for an amazing song. tears at work are ok today.

  • Searched for "higher math" => page 4 => solving the quintic equation => weird user home page (dedanoe) => weird lever song with swastika => your song "levers and gears" on the suggestions => moved to tears

    I feel like i stumbled upon a diamond :-)
