  • Delete your eyebrows and then, draw them again. Women's logic.

  • @AnotherSecondOne yeah but she does it way awesomer ( :

  • @AnotherSecondOne Better symmetry.

  • How come the advertisements load fast, but the actual music video doesn't. -__- fml

  • also, she's always saying 'i'm not the one that's crazy' WEIRD!!

  • @irishturkishcoffee o,o

    .....

    I love your username...

  • eargh ... I hate to say it, but she has a shocking voice D:

  • @irishturkishcoffee in your opinion.

    :)

  • Why doesn't this have more views!

  • FUCK ROAD RUNNER!

  • @5:51 should be framed and hung on a wall. Beautiful.

  • i hope she comes back to holland soon and brings everyone with her! i feel blessed to be able spending time listening to whatever i like or the people around me happen to like at the moment and share it with whom ever i like

  • "Sure, you seem so nice. Let's get it on." <--- favorite line in the song.

  • It makes me sad that my boyfriend doesn't like her. Like, more for me, I know. But :(

    I would like to share this Amanda Palmer lovesness with someone else I lovesness.

  • i love her. not in the way you respect or idolize someone, but i think i'm like in love with her. neil gaiman is so lucky, amanda is magnificent. 

  • @kylethedarkn

    I agree, I can tell from some of the words she sings and from hearing quite a few not talented artists in my time.

  • @kylethedarkn Yeah, and your opinion on this matters to SO MANY people, doesn't it?

  • @WolfRed4 It matters to anyone who reads it and realizes it validity. Also what does the number of people that care about my opinion matter, being famous doesn't mean you're more right. XD

  • Not only are 'roadrunner' a shit label, but they also have a ridiculous name. Totally on Will e Coyotes side here.

  • If there were more brave, pure people like her, the world would be one giant orgasm.

  • she is so pretty in this video :)

  • I may be romantic.

    I may risk my life for it.

    But I'm not going to die for it,

    You know I'm not no Juliet.

  • this isnt asher roth?

  • She's so gorgeous and real. I love her. She is totally my idol. Forever! I love her music and just the way she is. She's so real, I can't get over it! :] <3

  • Is that not the person who was in 'The Point of it All' ?

  • What a talented person, Amanda you are superb!!

  • If I could have a single ounce of guts like this woman....

  • If I ever became an entertainer... You'd be my role model, if anyone.

    It's hard to explain what I feel. But look at you, singing it out for everyone so I hardly need to kill my brain searching for what I want to say aloud to myself.

    You are real, you are life. Never stop what it is you have your mind set at for anyone.

    <3

  • You are art. You inspire Me, Amanda. The mind boggles. I have no words.

  • This song IS my life, Amanda, I owe you so much. Your music has helped me through the roughest of imes. Thank you ♥

  • Just got my Ampersand tattoo. Miss Palmer, you stole my heart.

  • I love the huge glazed smile on her face when she says "Let's get it on"...

  • I find it ever so slightly ironic this is one of the first songs of hers I heard, but I only heard OF her because she married Neil Gaiman. Beautiful song though.

  • @alicebakingsoda

    That's an amusing coincidence, but it doesn't mean much :) She had a pretty large, solid fanbase long before she married Neil Gaiman, and as she explained to her fans at a concert I was at, she met Neil because she asked him to collaborate with her on the companion book to the album this song is from, long after she wrote this song.

    I agree though, this is definitely one of my favourites of hers. I love how much energy she puts into her singing

  • Why is she so fucking beautiful?

  • @Pry3yr because she's Amanda Fucking Palmer.

  • i absolutely love her music so much.

  • She married the guy that wrote Coraline.

  • Comment removed

  • @CelloPlaya08 His name in Neil Gaiman. 

  • @Hayley1518 Yes i know.

  • @CelloPlaya08 wrote corlaine???!?!?!?! try the fucking sandman neil gaiman is known as one of the best comic book writers of our time!!!! THE SANDMAN

  • Comment removed

  • @jess1ca0wnsy0u K why r u yelling?

  • i am a 42 yr old lawyer with a book of songs the last time i played i was 20 - here is someone who has the guts to live her life to the full and has the talent to back it and say fuck em all - respect and love - music to laugh or cry to xx

  • i don't see why they wanted her thinner...she looks perfect already

  • i listened to the "who killed amanda palmer" album when i was suicidal. Ampersand helped me a lot . especially at "i may be romantic, i may risk my life for it but i aint gonna die for you" and then i made a sort of declaration to myself and the world that I AM NOT HIS JULIET

  • Mrrahh. Beautiful music overdose.

  • Can't even explain how beautiful she is.

  • I hope Neil Gaiman realizes how fortunate he is.

  • @MusicHasMeAddicted

    Grow the fuck up or take your dramas and self pity ("wahhhh I'm only 16") somewhere else. Stop whinging, for fuck's sake.

  • @Jordsy91 Oh come on, they stopped two weeks before you posted your comment, bitching back like that was totally uncalled for.

    Just enjoy the music instead would you? (and this goes for anyone else who thinks this is the right place to fight over who makes the most drama)

    Personally I love how it picks up at 3:30 - Amanda got such a spark in her music, I could listen to it forever <3

  • @aryllia Dido...love her music.

  • I'm in love with this song. I listened to it about 20 times last night!

  • I saw her sing this live-SHE IS FUCKING AMAZING. it was breathtaking. she's real. and i love her for that.

  • What the hells, Youtube? After all the shit with Roadrunner, do you really feel it is appropriate to have a "promoted video" on the top of the list that is about weight loss? >.> Inconsiderate tools.

  • idc if you think shes hot, idc if you think shes not, this is just a nice song. :)

  • beautiful insanity

  • @MiszterBela Didn't your mother tell ever tell you that if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all? If you dislike the video fine, but please, don't be so negative. It isn't very nice.

  • @Idiotsbane Didn't your mother teach you the english?!

  • @Idiotsbane

    And look at her face at 3:42 ! LOL! And her moving!! Brrrr!

  • @MiszterBela

    Your mom does too.

    : D

    

  • @chaotickittie03

    And who asked you? Jerk...

  • @MiszterBela Hey. Let's see you do better.

    DIDN'T THINK SO.

  • Comment removed

  • @MiszterBela Well than why did you even come to this video in the first place?

  • @CoolnessTV

    If I want to leave a comment, I have to sign up. This video is not my first waching on youtube, this is just my first comment.

  • @MiszterBela you could sing any better? NO FUCKING CHANCE

    and be as gorgeous? Just get fucked

    i met amanda, she is such a beautiful person inside and out.

    And a talented artist

    You don't like the song? Move on to another song, don't leave your idiotic bitchy comments in the video.

  • @MusicHasMeAddicted

    Hey, take it easy! I believe, that she is gorgeous, but judging by your comment, you are not! I don't like this song... and her performance in this video. That's all! So do not talk nastily to me! Jerk...

    Don't like my comment? Move on to another comment, don't leave your idiotic bitchy reply to me! :D:D

  • @MiszterBela HAH i know i'm not as gorgeous as amanda :D

    she is absolutely beautiful

    get fucked idiot, no need to be a cunt.

    i can talk nastily to you if i wish.

  • @MusicHasMeAddicted

    You are stupid, kid! Go home and eat shit.

  • @MiszterBela and you are an immature fuck head.

    do you feel good talking this way to a 16 year old?

    pathetic prick.

  • @MusicHasMeAddicted

    Oh, are you 16 years old? :D HAHA!!:):) I didn't know.

    Okay, sorry for that, so I will say it again (without "kid"):

    You are stupid! Go home and eat shit.

    Do you feel better?:)

  • @MiszterBela

    you're a fucking cunt.

    this is the reason society is fucked.

    big tough 23 year old arguing with a 16 year old

    must make you fall asleep better at night.

  • Comment removed

  • @MusicHasMeAddicted

    The "reason society is fucked": 16 years old boys are so stupid like you. As I said: I didn't know, that you were 16 years old. Pay attention when you are reading something!!

    And I send a word to your mother: she must to clean her son's mouth, because he didn't learn to speak well. The reason I wrote that: you are ignorant, stupid, and you speak nastily, not because you are 16 year old...

  • @MiszterBela i'm a 16 year old girl firstly.

    and you're still arguing with me, even though i'm 16.

    idiot.

    your parents made the mistake of not using contraception.

    sure, send a word to my mother, coz i'll be too busy fucking yours.

    i'm not ignorant, but i am speaking nastily and i am not stupid :)

    you started posting nasty comments first :)

  • @MusicHasMeAddicted

    "you started posting nasty comments first :)" --> That's not true, read my comments first. (and pay attention, stupid)

    "your parents made the mistake of not using contraception. sure, send a word to my mother, coz i'll be too busy fucking yours." --> These sentences classify you

    " i'm a 16 year old girl firstly. and you're still arguing with me, even though i'm 16. idiot." --> who cares that you are 16?!

    -->You are ignorant, stupid, hopeless, arrogant.

  • @MiszterBela

    get fucked loser

    at least i probably have a better life than you

    LOL using my lines against me, come up with something better :)

    you piss me off, stupid fuck tard.

  • @MusicHasMeAddicted

    You are the one, who can't come up with something better.

    Be on silence! (you piss me off too, you silly goose)

  • @MiszterBela

    i've come up with more stuff than you.

    Be on silence?

    yeah like that makes sense.

  • @MusicHasMeAddicted

    How about taking this shit to your Bedroom where he can Rape you for being a disgrace to the Human society?

    We're here to enjoy the Music from a Great artist, Not listen to a Drama queen Crybaby whine.

  • @KoolJohn shut the fuck up you fucking idiot.

    i have every right to defend an artist who i love.

  • @MusicHasMeAddicted

    Yet here you are Bitching and Moaning when we're here to listen to the music.

    Get the fuck out of here and go back to your Sweet Justin Bieber pansy.

  • @KoolJohn i don't listen to fucking justin bieber

    i love amanda palmer :s

    and metal and stuff

    i'm not bitching about her

    i love her music.

  • @MusicHasMeAddicted

    Did I say you were bitching about her?

    I said quit the bitching, Nobody here cares about it.

    We're here to enjoy the Music, Not watch Drama fill the comment Box. I'm done with you now. >.>

  • @KoolJohn obviously me and that guy were done with the arguments, you should have left it alone.

  • What's with the anti-German t-shirt Amanda? Really!?!?

  • I LOVE AMANDA!!!

  • she is a great singer and pianist

  • Possibly my favorite of hers. Beautiful.

  • sounds like regina spektor

  • I love her.. so much

  • I don't understand what people find imperfect about her, especially in this song. It all sounds perfect to me, just because it isn't as smooth and sharpened as with all those pop-singers these days. There's so much emotion, so much originality. Fuck, this is REAL.

  • @isoldediva Good music does not need to fit the classic operatic style. It is arrogance like yours that kills creative expression and leads to myopic traditional music with no soul. Before you claim to have an opinion about someone's performance, keep in mind that the 'rasp' of a blues singer is as important as the clarity of a tenor's voice. Life is bigger than your local elevator...

  • @lamame fuck up, it's the only real voice nowadays

    when you can do better feel free to critic

  • @chrischrischrischoof

    Does it take a Chef to say a soup taste bad? ; )

  • @chaotickittie03

    not at all. but that shit soup may be amazing to somebody else

  • @chrischrischrischoof I can do about the same, so I don't sing. I like her with the Dresden Dolls a lot better than solo. You can't appreciate that?

  • All the bashing is proof of how brainwashed and conforming society can be. Amanda doesn't look like the next dime a dozen pop princess and doesn't auto tune a mediocre song about fucking and being hot written by some washed out ghostwriter. She's an artist, creating REAL music and REAL beauty and REAL meaning. Shes a REAL person not some commercial manufactured diva. Go back to your Lady Gaga and Katy Perry auto tune queens where it's nice and safe, you clones.

  • @WhiteRoseNamine yeeeaah ....wears her REAL eyebrows? I lov her music ...just ask'n.

  • @WhiteRoseNamine fuck you katy perry is amazing, but so is amanda

  • @WhiteRoseNamine I think shes sexy as fuck. When I pic my future wife I see amanda fucking plamer

  • @WhiteRoseNamine i dunno about that, brainwashing.... im not trying to pick a fight, just saying that I love amanda palmer, but I also listen to these "pop princesses" and auto tuned people. So what does that make me when I listen to everything? I love amanda palmer and all kinds of music so does that mean Its all brainwashing?

  • @WhiteRoseNamine Y'know, by implying that everyone who doesn't like Amanda Palmer is fake and a clone you're no better than the people who you're insulting, right?

    Don't get me wrong. I utterly adore Amanda Palmer. I think she's beautiful and an amazing musician. But I also adore Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Audiomachine, David Bowie, Nicky Minaj, and Jack Johnson. Because I like popular musicians am I a clone? Well, no. Not everyone who doesn't like your kind of music is inferior. Don't forget that.

  • @Seagreenandblue

    I've always felt that it's better to like something that everyone else likes because you genuinely like it than to do something simply for the sake of being "original". Isn't liking something just because other people don't like it as unoriginal as liking something because other people do like it?

  • @Seagreenandblue Right on! Elitism has no place in music.

  • @Seagreenandblue but the message of half of those artists is irresponsible and only help with the corrosion of society. so if you wanna support that.. go ahead be a sheeple. you can hate all the same things as me, and love stuff that i hate, and i can still have respect for the music. katy perry, nikki minaj? NO RESPECT

  • @jess1ca0wnsy0u *you can hate all the things i love, and love stuff i hate

  • @Seagreenandblue lol. fuck you, except for the amanda palmer bit.

  • @WhiteRoseNamine That said. I do agree with your point that part of what makes her amazing is that she's so very real, and not traditionally pretty.

  • @WhiteRoseNamine

    Don't be so rude

    Lady Gaga and Kathy Perry are like Amanda Palmer for the "47 chromosomes" persons

  • @LN1992 when an artist compares her own self to people... one can generally assume she feels herself to share something with them. In this case, Amanda Palmer put herself, Madonna, and Lady Gaga in the same category. I would not have, but once she, herself, made that comparison, and admitted admiring things about those fine ladies... It feels like I now have permission to do the same.

  • One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. The lyrics, the music, and Amanda's voice. I love 3:31 when that violin comes in.

  • @isoldediva

     You're kidding me, right?

  • @isoldediva ...looks like someone has no idea who amanda palmer is . your critique is horrible. do some homework.

  • @isoldediva way to abuse subjectivity as a means to objectivity :1

    Personally, I think that you can't damn her singing as bad purely because it's not the same as the stuff you hear so frequently. As an artist, not a entertainer, she's entitled to sing in whatever way fits the song. Ultimately, although you're entitled to your opinion, she's not here to serve it - no artist is.

    .../constructive/ criticism would have been nice if you ARE going to throw your opinion about, though.

  • @isoldediva wait, boring lyrics? do you have ears?

    she might not be the best singer in terms of technique but she has emotion, and THAT is what most "talented" artists are lacking.. oh and originality.

  • @isoldediva I have to agree with other people, this sort of elitism is very limiting. It's the same thing that made traditionalists view modern art as lower, where it is no less valid. She is a good artist, because she can make it work. People don't drift to her because she's the queen of the scene. They find something in her work. That makes your viewpoint as limited as the world that you try to enforce,

  • @FoamCrayons My hearing is fine, but yours is obviously severely impaired.

    -jcr

  • in case you didn't get the e-mail yesterday, the Dresden Dolls are doing a short reunion tour!

    1st date is Halloween in NYC.

    #@!

  • @NSResponder

    Can't sing? How much do you know about range? Because this woman has an INCREDIBLE one.

  • Roadrunner < AFP

  • Kind of douchy how roadrunner records still has this up after dropping her. It's kind of a slap to the face driving traffic away from her channel to this one. Especially since she's the one that wanted to be dropped.

    But it's a great video.

  • Something about the strange honesty in Palmer's lyrics make them so haunting, and so touching to hear. I think beauty goes beyond a face. I think good music is more than a catchy chorus that is easy to listen to because it doesn't require very much thinking. I think Amanda Palmer is absolutely stunning, and to throw around language like "butt ugly" about an artists appearance is not only shallow but, I personally think, disrespect to art.

  • @spaceyzimmy Thanks for your opinion. Now take it somewhere else.

  • @clickclickboooom You're welcome, but no. As long as I have to explain myself to others, i'm staying.

  • I know this doesn't matter but since everyone likes to argue and state irrelevant opinions, I'd just like to join in. I think she's really beautiful.

  • I think she's gorgeous myself!

  • i really like this song. its very unique, as amanda palmer seems to be.

  • this is what happens when we go to Richard Obrian movies during pregnancy Scientista call it, pheotal rocky horror syndrome.

    lets be careful out there....

  • I was lucky enough to hear this song live; it was truly haunting.

  • Why are people bashing on her. Only because she doesn't fill the whole wanna be diva look everyone wants doesn't make her any less. Her music has a billion times more value than the shqueel most chick singers nowadays spew out. Quite frankly her looks make her even more valueable because she doesn't please anyone but herself. and she's BEAUTIFUL, STUNNING!!!!

  • Amanda Amanda, swept me away with Truce back when I was 12 and you still continue to do the same 6 years later. Incredible song and incredible album. Can't wait for Evelyn Evelyn to be posted through my door.

  • I am so happy I came across Amanda's music. I can listen to this over and over again.

  • To be quite honest, her eyebrows freak me out. But I l-o-v-e her music, her voice, just /everything/ about her <3

  • this is such a good song.

  • Oh, will all of you bashers shut up about the way she looks? Amanda is breathtaking, and she's twice the woman any of you could ever hope to be in talent and beauty.

  • Everyone who is commenting on how she looks, just think that when it comes to music, it doesn't matter how you look, how you dress or where you're from, it's about who you are as a person&&your ability to connect with different people through music that you put out there.

  • Amanda is AMAZING and FOXY!!! I <3 AMANDA

  • i love this song and amanda. :)

  • thats a beautiful song... very haunting.

    amanda is gorgeous. beauty is an opinion, but if you don't like what someone looks like, you don't need to bash her. she is a wonderful musician, and i happen to find her breathtaking.

    so hush and enjoy the song.

  • @SManifestosSkatastic

    hey and you got to watch her get naked too

  • I guess it's the mark of true genius and a masterpiece to see these capitalist leeches plaster their crap all over this fantastic video.

  • MAN! Some of you people on here are so cruel! The song is amazing and she is just drop dead gorgeous! I want to look like her! So when you mess with Amanda you're messing with ME! So STOP being stupid and listen and enjoy. Her music is amazing and inspiring! And I'm not saying you have to like the song it's just you don't say ANYTHING about the song, you just say how ugly you think she is and that is just CRUEL! so STOP IT cause she is Amazing AND gorgeous!!!

  • Great song, and amanda is beautiful.

  • I personally think she's beautiful. She's got a nice mouth, powerful eyes, and crazy eyebrows that attract attention but as still tasteful. Don't diss the singer, and just listen to the beautiful song :)

  • Now music is 100% about the visual? Take the cotton wool out of your ears.

  • I never wanted to change your feelings, I just wanted to ascertain if your shallow attitude had any real justification. It seems not.

  • So...spaceyzimmy...what do you look like?

  • Well I have long red hair and blue eyes. No tattoos, no piercings. Meh, I think I look pretty good.

  • Female. *yawn* any other questions?

  • @spaceyzimmy If you woke up to find a bagel under your pillow, what would you do?

  • @Thewisedaz Lol, did you seriously just ask me that? I'd probably be like "wtf?", laugh, think it was one of my stupid roommates pulling a prank in one of their drunken states again, and toss it in the trash. Why? Would you like me to send you my bagel in the mail, if that happens to occur?

  • @spaceyzimmy

    So you said you might like the song if you heard it on the radio and didn't have to see her? Just asking. I'm not gonna try to change your mind 'cause I know that's annoying.

  • @kmacmuzikmafia27 I appreciate you just talking about it, and not bashing me for my thoughts. Sure, I would definitely give the song a listen if it was on the radio. I guess I just feel that how a person presents themselves is important. And I just feel like she gives off a creepy vibe. I'm not trying to start an arguement, but that's how I feel.

  • @spaceyzimmy

    No problem. People on YouTube get into these pointless arguments just because they feel personally attacked when someone disagrees with them, lol.

  • @spaceyzimmy Wow, you're so small-minded it isn't even funny. How'd you survive walking down the street if you can't set eyes on people without talking shit about how they look?

  • @PrawnSticks All I did was comment on her. Ok? Yeah, I couldn't get through her song, or the music video. I honestly think it sucked. That is my OPINION. I think she is butt ugly. That is again my OPINION. You are the one choosing to take personal offense to what I say. My friends and family value my honesty and the fact that I don't smile and tell them pretty little lies to their face. So calling me names isn't going to change how I feel about this video, or her voice *vomit*.
