[TwinMoons2121]

A winner is anthro!

[MozartsDiva]

[Phillip1808]

[WookieChef]

I wish I could give you a high-five.

[Daionisio]

@WookieChef *high-five*!

[417thinker]

Absolutely terrific! Who says that the liberal arts don't progress mankind? All my doubtful BS friends, that's who! BA student are like this song: BA.

[LenoreBronwen]

That was wonderful! I can't wait to study anthropology in a couple years!

[fighterace0]

is that a jawa?

[MsSexysg]

<3 my archaeology proff. showed this in class a few years back. I still come and watch the vid every now and then

[Daionisio]

@MsSexysg That's so awesome to hear, thanks!

[MrPeterBan]

Hello from Melbourne Australia! Our Anthropology lecturer showed this in the last lecture, at Latrobe University. Good luck with your Masters

[Daionisio]

@Rosehawka Hello Melbourne! Thank you and good luck with your future education/career :)

[Trissana281]

Im student of antropology and I must say: Good work! :DDD

[TheKelsmommy]

As an Anthropology student, I must say that you are my freakin hero! I'm so referring this song to my Anthropology instructor here. Thank you for helping me to confirm my study choice!

[Daionisio]

@TheKelsmommy Fantastic! Great to hear you're enjoying the study :)

[AJandHerCookie]

I love this song and hope that I'll be able to start getting a BA in Anthropology and Criminology after graduation next year. I hope studying it ar university is just as interesting as reading about it as a habby. :) Although I have no idea what to do with it... regarding gloablization I'm probably super stupid to study something for the love of it. xD

[peregrinosj]

Very nice song! I am a philosopher but I also like anthropology!

[RollingStone91]

I was freaking out about starting this course till I saw this! Awesome, thank you!!!

[Daionisio]

@RollingStone91 Good luck with the course! :)

[buffyfredfan9191]

[theggwheelibin]

What a well written song, I think economic is the word to use. I'm definitely sending you an A440 tuning fork for Christmas though.

[peaceinator56]

Wow! this is incredible. awesome song, my dad is an anthropologist, this is one thing hes sent me that i love. really great job.

[LaTiteChouette]

Wow I loooooove it !!!!! Je suis finissante au bacc en anthropologie, j'ai vraiment apprécié la chanson ! Et le refrain est excellent !!! Bravo !

[bicifiebre]

you just made my day!!! thank you so much!

[BlueExplore]

first day of freshman year at high school my teacher showed us this vid as the beginning of the anthro unit now 1 year later i stumble upon it

[ffp23279]

great song! i am sure my students will love it! Congrats!!

[animegirl687]

Can we purchase an MP3 of this somewhere? This song is hysterical, I love how it perfectly sums up Anthropology in under 5 minutes!

[lapoet58]

first day of anthropology our professor showed this video and i loove it!! and i'm starting to love anthro as well haha :)) i'm a student @ wheaton college which is the small liberal arts school in norton, MASS, not the one in illinois heehee :P

[dude26901]

you remind me of my friend liz (i call her potatoes) shes going to college for anthropology

[TheMassiveToe]

I'm cracking up here!

I was looking for Anthropology lectures and found this!

As an Anthropologist I'm incredibly amused!

:-)

[decentfairyflyer]

Just watched this in ANthropology 202 at William and Mary! Great Job!

[diosanatural]

I just graduated from Peace College, an all women's college, that is currently in transition to becoming the co-ed William Peace University. I am one of the last of the true Anthropology majors, as they decided to cut the major along with others. Your song is really great and inspiring. =) Makes me proud to be an anthro chic.

[pixietrue1]

Our lecturer showed us this in our intro to anthropology lecture a couple of days ago and I loved it! I now know I am choosing the right major haha. Great job :)

[gabbox538]

que lo máximo... de lo mejor, me hace sentir orgulloso de ser antropólogo!!!!

[Daionisio]

@gabbox538 pues gracias , que bueno saber eso!! :)

[mDcWhG]

Thumbs Up For Anthropology. I'm currently Studying Cultral Anthro. and African American Studies at Wright State University. GO RAIDERS! Absolutely Love the song by the way!

[Smashley27]

25 people have clearly never taken an Anthropology course!

[Avinea1]

Hi, it´s really sententious description of anthropology! I´m also an anthropologist (I studied at Charles University in Prague and I lecture there especially about paleoanthropology, now) and I like your message involved in the song. Well done!Linda

[lwt298]

I'm sending this to my father so that he might understand why I would rather study Anthropology next year at University rather than Engineering.

Thanks :)

[monkey802635]

After hearing this song i had to go find it for my MP3 player. Love the song. <3

[MsCiaraMc]

Haha....i used this song to tell my parents I was gonna study anthropology next year instead of the old reliable english.:D absolutely love the song.Well done You...:):)

[ragz240791]

23 people aren't human.

[LesIsMore1375]

I love this song. LOVE IT. Great music, great lyrics, great voice, and a great topic. :)

[Shakimetalmaniac]

I just came home after writing my final for first year cultural anthropology. I'm definitely taking up to fourth year,its very interesting! Thanks for sharing the song.

[Remnant321]

awesome!! i totally love it! i'm going for my bachelors right now, but i've been an "anthropologist my whole life"! this is now my anthem thanks! :)

[Supergeek199]

I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this video!

[susie0o0panda]

I saw this song in Prof. Barker's class at UBC, he is the best and I really liked your song! :D I wish my uni offered a degree in anthropolgy

[TheSokodelic]

awesome video/song. I recently decided on Anthropology as my major, if I can get back into school that is. very inspirational!

[JeanMichelAbrassart]

Cool song. :-)

[BubbleDropping]

My dream is being an Anthropologist... So if I ever become a professor or something later, in my first class, I'll definitely show this video to the students.... :) The best song ever...!

[GuitarSpeakerReviews]

Cool cool song

[cugui3]

LOL hahahah i really love your song :D its really what we do i cant stop laughing about they are in love woth malinowski XD... XD hes the best!

[double0dizzle]

[Powowo]

greeting from a Chilean Anthropologist

[AceStapler]

This is awesome! Have you ever thought of being a musician (and Anthropologist)? You are very talented and thank you for this video and song!

[hanghnue]

Hi Dai! I start my new week by listening again your song and it is great. May be you do not remember me a Vietnamese anthropologist that sent you a comment 1 years ago (may be earlier :) ). Now I am in the University of Adelaide study my PhD. If you go to Adelaide give me a message in my gmail, you will have a friend in Ade!

[wendybandurskimiller]

Brilliant!!!! I love this thank you for sharing it with us all.

[whiterabit09]

if this world was sane, you would be on the top of the charts..... this is real music :)

[mcmepicness]

omg We love this video we used it for a school presintation!!!!!! I love this song !!!!!

[jlc6398]

I actually really want to be an anthropologist when I'm older! I have to research EVERYTHING about the subject for a school project and I thought that it was really cool that people can still have fun while having such a serious job! After being a life-long fan on "Bones", I believed that you sort of lost your.... identity... if you will with this career.... I was EXTREMELY wrong! Hehe(:

[ihavekankles]

Anthropologist you say? Don't you mean, "professional bullshitter"?

[jlc6398]

@ihavekankles If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. That is just immature. Please act your age! 

[RavynCrescent]

I wake up singing this song in my head >_<it's catchy

[plmijn000]

21 didn't like the kinship charts of their homes

[Auz18]

Anthro professors, there all kinda crazy....Deep down they're all in love with, Malinowski hahaha I think its only an anthropologist that'll find that hilarious ;p

[foiran]

Awesome song

[Ekneinable]

Anthropology is the best! :D

[jaxisbax]

I am an anthropologist in training. I had to watch this video in one of my anthro classes.. and i have to say that yes it was well put together and a very catchy tune. you do have talent however i think that anthropology is more in depth than just the simplistic view of wishing that everyone could just get along. and that it is simply just misunderstanding that gets us into war's and such. i wish people would do more independent reading and not just be a drone and hang on your professors word

[ailaeldora]

@jaxisbax I think she knows that, having finished her Masters,but there's just so much you can fit into a 4:32 minute long song. So chill. =)

[scalelike]

im into paleontology (( the typical passianate about dinosaurs kind)) But when i was young i also wanted to be an archeologist and loved indiana jones my facination was with cave Paintings and such I woulkd go with my family hiking in caves in texas to see if i could find Native american cave paintings and we found one i remember being thrilled i was like 8 and even though I wanted to be a paleontologist I swore to my parents i was gonna be a little of everything.awesome song

[DowneyLA3000]

I am showing this to my Anthro professors when classes start next month. Great job

[rhcp27la]

As an Anthropology major, I effing love this song! Kudos!

[ladydead95]

so awesome :D i love it!!!!!!!!!!!!! i want to go to school for anthropolgy :)

[PokemonGuyX]

can i get this on itunes? lol

[greenpestopasta]

I study Anthropology in Cologne, Germany. Your song stoked my passion for Anthropology again which gets distrubed sometimes by all the pressure and stress from work to pay your fees and still wanting to read and study what your passion is about! Thanks a lot! Hugs! :)

[YoukaiYoko]

I love this song! My anthropology teacher showed us your song<3

[ashtonrachelle]

My Anthro 101 teacher showed us this on day one. I love the melody!

(Ball State University in Muncie, IN by the way.)

[cbbucs09]

Dude this is really good. i want to go into anthropology :)

[WizardPrincess2441]

Very nice video! I teach Anthro. classes...may use this in my beginning lecture....hope that's okay...and you performed at the AAA's? That is sooo cool! Best of luck finishing your Masters' and with your career!!!

[Daionisio]

@WizardPrincess2441 Of course that's more than fine! Say hi to your class from me :) And thanks very much, I finished my Masters last summer and it was really rewarding. All the best!

[WizardPrincess2441]

@Daionisio Hey, congratulations on finishing your Masters!!!! And, thanks for your okay!!! What area are you specializing in? Are you going to teach? Sorry for all the questions!!! Take care, Cherie

[Daynee86]

The chorus is awesome and quite catchy! Kudos on the song; I actually liked it! My Anthro professor linked our class to your vid as part of our first assignment to review. I'm a Linguistics major and look forward to learning more about what exactly anthropology is all about. Maybe I'll write a song about Linguistics one of these days, lol! ;)

[Daionisio]

@Daynee86 Thanks! As for writing a Linguistics song, that'd be awesome -- the world would love to hear it! :)

[PoliticalHell]

That was one of the best videos I've ever seen, thank you for sharing! It's honestly inspiring.

[Daionisio]

@PoliticalHell Aw thanks, it's awesome to hear from you! :)

[Aist808]

the chorus is epic, lol

[guppyvisje]

Gosh! I love this song! I'm a first year anthropology, at Utrecht, the Netherlands. Our teacher showed it to us in class today. It was our "christmas present" And when it was over, everybody was like, Again! Show it Again 8D

Yes, we loved it :)

[BezurpaCZ]

To be a human is a task, not born-to-be privilegium... thanks for sharing your opinion on the "structure" sis :) Czech mate

[melwenrhcp]

Great video, the song and its performance too. I study anthropology in the Czech Republic... The lyrics, they're all true :-)

[sweetcat113]

i love this song. :) i'm just finishing the first semester of my master's program in anthropology. i took theory, so the Malinowski comment made me laugh. i definitely agree that all anthro professors are crazy, lol

[mrako1]

LOL i <3 this song!!! made me smile :)

[MountainMan5516]

Hey,... love the song,.. my Cultural Anthropology teacher played this just today, it was the last day of class for this sem. She played it for the whole class,... everyone liked it! I'm in my first year as an Anthropology major. Hope to hear from you! (ever think of making a song about Archeology?) ;)

[Daionisio]

@MountainMan5516 Hey, thanks! I'm stoked your class liked it :)

I was thinking of an Archae song actually! Not my particular field though; I'm not sure if it'd be clever enough. Got any verses in mind? ;)

[MountainMan5516]

@Daionisio Hey! thanks for replying! what year are you in? I'm still struggling on what area to specialize in. Thinking of Archeology,... to many years watchin Indiana Jones I guess lol.

[Daionisio]

@MountainMan5516 I just finished my Masters in Anthro (socio-cultural). Archaeology is a great field. Have you considered going on a dig with your school or another? There are a lot of great programs-for-credit out there, on the NW Coast, Jordan, etc; great, usually super fun opportunity to get some experience, get your hands dirty in "the field" (!) and get a better idea if it really might be your thing. Also Indiana Jones hats are not as uncommon as you might think :)

[flexxxyyy]

Great song!! Anthropologist 4 life :-)

[sandnwanderlust]

Aah! everytime I listen to this I am so re-motivated for anthropology...argh but I have to study for this politics exam right now, so much less interesting :(

[23cookies92chips]

I just saw this in my intro to anthropology class. This is awesome!

[annaml14179]

This song is sOoOo inspirational. Especially during my paper writing process. Like oh em gee.

[sandnwanderlust]

I love this so much. I feel less alone...here in Australia absolutely no one knows what anthro is (outside of uni) so I feel pretty alone...good to hear stuff like this :) !!!

[ihugtheworld]

@sandnwanderlust yep, here in Estonia noone even seems to know the word anthropology. you're never alone ;)

[Planetzify]

Love this! I watched in a meeting of our Anthropology Club actually and yes, Anthro Professors are a bit crazy (in an awesome way).

[sonnige0augenblicke]

Loved it! I got my BA in Anthropology and German Studies in 2009 :)

[bbygrl690]

So I definitely listened to this while studying for my Anthro exam. Awesome songg :)

[Freedomwriter24]

I think this is an amazing song. The lyrics are beautiful and so true, my personal favorite is "How many wars, metaphors or literally,

Could be avoided if the world was "us", instead of "you" and "me"?" I am an undergraduate anthropology major at Kent State University and am lucky enough to be taking a class taught by Dr.C. Owen (or Owen C. depending on where you look) Lovejoy who is pretty famous in the field as you probably know. Keep up the good work, long live anthropology!

[savestheday1726]

[vandrewlongstrider]

@savestheday1726 Perhaps you should find something better to do than randomly leaving hate comments on youtube videos. Or is it that you just can't do anything else?

Merry Christmas to you and your family. I'm glad we had this talk.

[orangekush3]

@MrOslokid lol

[CarrieVeronica]

I can't stop watching/listening to this! You're seriously incredible, and so is anthropology! =]

[njbrand]

This is awesome on so many levels!

1) Subject

2) you include "built-in" captions

3) you include detailed info AND the lyrics in your "more info"

Anthro FTW! Dai Cooper Rocks! ;)

[MissLynSanity]

Anth club is lovin the song at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock =)

[Daionisio]

[Daionisio]

@MissLynSanity We grad students have developed keen skills in the ways of accessing information ;)

[walkonearth]

I kinda LOVE this.

[ghopalma]

I like the lyrics of the song, it's awesome to know that there are people around the globe who feel so passionate about other cultures and humanity, after all, the difference between us is really not so much.

...and it was fun as hell when you said you wanted to see Peru (I'm Peruvian) :)

[Daionisio]

@ghopalma Awesome! I've actually lived in Peru for a few months over the last two summers, I loved it and my Spanish got pretty good :) Thanks!

[MatthewsGauss]
