Jack Conte - The Giant

[Korpen85]

the beginning reminded me some of daft punk and made me listen to the rest, love this

[MaelstromK]

Jack Conte: One Man Radiohead

[J4KETS]

@MaelstromK im a huge radiohead fan. honestly, i think jacks better

[fuddy598]

some of this sounds a lot like a muse song. can't remember which one. i like it though!

[mralex5425]

you do the radiohead sound better than radiohead

[FancyLobotomist]

Oh my goodness Jack, You are an inspiration.

[RevJoshua]

What's that song playing on the outro? Anyone know?

[Underjoggle]

Jack Conte, the biggest EHXhead in the known universe, using a Boss pedal?

Shame.

[ilikeredandblack]

you can't just choose to be like jack. you gotta be the chosen one. and that happens once in every century.

[IonicBreed]

it was good until the Autotune effect. Jack really? You're classier than that.... vocoder, talk box, phaser, doubler anything but the autotune effect.

[graundler]

SWEET c"; yon good yon

[steveyodog]

Faces....:)

[MysteriousAndrew]

Ending Is cool!

[sasukeissocoollike]

Does anyone know te name of the song at the end?

[sunburst12341]

@sasukeissocoollike

Its called "Hollywood Endings" off "sleep in Colour"

[TheTastelessComedy]

The music is flawless, but your beautiful voice makes the song. The way you sing with such passion leaves me speechless.

[BaliGamer]

whenit started off, i thought to myself, "Mono Sound? Jack Conte?? NO!" and sure enough, i was right. me of little faith.

[copeagua]

hii , can any one recomend me a prgram to record and edit my videos? thx

[dpatrickst170]

@copeagua Adobe After Effects :)

[MysticRapture]

Those teeth don't seem to be much healty...

[karlw101]

@MysticRapture Giants don't have tooth brushes

[Greger0091]

I love the mellow undertone to this, it reminds me a great deal of Joy Division

[audiophil92]

This sounds like a mixture of Jamiroquai and Radiohead - mellow and indie, yet with a jazzie flavor to it :)

[lilian666distillers]

@audiophil92 I was about to comment it sounded kind of radiohead :)

[gell7]

evesdroping they truely love others

[audiophil92]

I love how shy Jack is at the end when he realises Nataly is eavesdropping on him :P

[snoutout]

yeah, Jack is definitely influenced by Radiohead.

[Domydoor]

the bridge bit sounds so like paranoid android!!!

[HJsongs]

woot garageband

[uiop60]

I just realized that the end id phrased the same way as Gulf: 7,7,7,8

[uiop60]

@uiop60 *is! Geez, I never make typos in comments!

[tristar311]

look everyone....your parents dont have to be rich to play great music...just need instruments a mic and lots and lots of talent :)

your great jack

[buiwashere]

DAMNIT NATALY! Don't you know never to walk in on a man when he's singing falsetto by himself in front of a camera??? GEEZ!

[tapetedepadaria]

he could really do the The The song, The Giant. It would be MORE AWESOME!

[23Sect]

REAL

[Holy0Guacamole]

Haha at Nataly at the end.

[Newhomerambler]

Jack's songs are like potato chips, you can't eat just one.

[sweetwilliamsunshine]

@Newhomerambler and they go straight to your hips, right?

[JuiCeBoX19]

this part at second 50 or something reminds of paranoid android... I love you and your influences buddy!

[EarloftheMillenium]

FAN-FRICKIN'-TASTIC Jack, you never fail to make me sing along whenever i hear your music

[SmileyfaceMan80]

push 9 on your keyboard

?????

profit

[orangecolouredshapes]

dear jack, I try to imagine what you will look like as an old man. and I think you will look like a silly one. a silly billy old man.

[MrFunnyEd]

reminds me of keane, :D

[ANdyanamic]

What is the name of the song that can be heard for a second at the very end?

[RunningOrcPros]

You are an inspiration in music, as well as your awesome beard:] I'm so jealous of all the instruments you have, and can play! Keep writing awesome music man, i know how tasking and how much time goes into these videos, it's not easy, but we appreciate it :D

[Jackathan818]

Patrick Watson + Muse= Conte. love it.

[bitking69]

TRV - Option one is correct. Jack is the real deal.

I can say from many years in a basement band - the pedals don't make a bad band better. They do put a good finish on a great band.

[TR1VO5]

there are 2 options: 1. he is genious and uses a lot of ehx effects 2. he got no talent and that pedals make him genious.

[Mase379]

@TR1VO5 lmao great insight

[ANdyanamic]

The end of this song blows my mind - GREAT!!!

[GregJoshuaW]

The thing I most love about Jack is that he let's you hear the RAW music too. The filtered stuff sounds amazing, but when you hear the raw (Natalie creepin on him) it shows you if you have a good car voice, you can rock the mic.

Respect!

[DuffleMuffins]

Bothe he and Nataly have AMAZING voices!

[uber301]

A serious question, does the beard affect the voice projection?

[howLowTheMoon]

man you must get lonely doing all that solo work in the studio

[MrEarcheese]

@howLowTheMoon

Err, he lives in an appartement with his girlfriend - who also plays music (he's also in a band called Pomplamoose with that same girl). So playing music with the love of your life and making money doing that.

Lonely? No. I wish I was his neighbor.

[noobhunter3000]

Blackbeard the pirat ;o)

[sunburst12341]

what song is that at the end?

[BleedingxBliss]

@sunburst12341 Hollywood Endings.

[musicalman1995]

@sunburst12341 hollywood endings by jack conte

[juandiegoborda]

goood!

[aireun]

kinda like radiohead and ..... damn i can't even thimk of another band to compare your sound to, it stands on it's own.

[tsns1]

Beautiful voice in a scary way:

[osea90]

so radiohead style...

[submoronicbomb]

There's obviously nothing you can't do. So keep doing your best! If you and Matt Mahaffey ever made music together, brains would melt.

[Lavashield]

This is just beastly bro

[MasterShinjy]

OMG! i watched yeah yeah yeah vid, 2 years ago and was awesome. know i see your progress... felicitaciones desde Ecuador!

[ashwalk85]

getting late for work cause can't watching your vids.. again

[NERDFORADAY]

Freaking Awesome!

[HalibutLikeTheFish]

rock that fuckin' beard yeah yeah yeah

[lalajiji3]

youre crazy man and i love it

[kittenfetus666]

Jack,

You have an amazing ear for melodies and chord progressions, instrument accompaniment. Your voice is so clear and crisp with perfect pitch. Amazing.

[ShiekahTribe]

Somehow reminds me of incubus

[TrueTenorMan]

Aw, Nat messed up your recording! Hope you spanked her for it!

[tophlovr]

OMG i watched the part where nataly peeks around your shoulder and you can feel her but you are embarrassed to look her in the face i watched that part like a trillion times lol SO FUNNY

[CameronDaKudos]

holy crap man

that kind of blew my mind

[SenorAwesome]

What's that song at the very end?

[Rc1290Dreadnought]

@SenorAwesome The song at the end is called 'Hollywood Endings' from his album 'Sleep in Color'. It seems like it does not have a video here on YouTube, but you can listen to it on his website, fortunately. You can also find it on iTunes and his mySpace page.

[SenorAwesome]

@Rc1290Dreadnought Awesome, thank you.

[hiMyNameisDio]

This is one of my favorites!

[gramparsonslovechild]

You sir are fucking amazing! You have my support!

[zkranz0]

What's the song at the end of the video?

[tfromfkajb]

Nice song, Jack, But I wonder why you dont' just play the whole drum kit all at once. Wouldn't that be easier?

[OfEther]

@tfromfkajb It's a part of his art.

[TheSquiglyProduction]

Can You Do A Rock Video Because You Have the RIGHT Voice of it (listen to the end of the video when it said the thing on myspace)

[JuiCeBoX19]

yap he loves radiohead

[Fintan96]

the end is funny xD

[CaptainRoflCopter]

so radioheadish

[dfguitarman01]

Damn it where do you find money to purchase all of these amazing things?

[STAFAWN]

would any one be able to tell me what song jack starts singing at the end, if it is a song that is.

ps Mr. Conte... ive realized you are the new radiohead but better, i would have to say this is a feat, because they used to be my fav band. but now i get to listen to u so :) yay lol

[CyberAsomatous]

your voice is just great man.. and i hate male vocals in general.. you are the acception

[HenryTheChipfork]

The beard is ace, man!

[grandaddyJ]

so glad that i found your music..... now its a new best friend of mine ;)

keep doin' bro!

[pontepolentepontepi]

WOW !!!!

[archib10]

Das closeup der Zähne hätt's nicht gebraucht - die Musik aber sehr. Phantastisches Lied! Vielen dank!!!!

[caocote]

OMG! c'est sérieusement trop bon... mais je m'inquiète, sors-tu des fois de ton appart?

longue vie à Jack et Nat!!! xxo

[gnorralicious]

Just as a note, I'm like 95% sure Jack doesn't use autotune. Rather, he uses the Electro-Harmonix Voice Box. It's been pictured in a few of his solo videos and collaborative videos, and he even did a demo/ad video for it which can be found on the EHX channel.

It features Nataly, his lovely girlfriend and musical partner, singing an original song by the two; "In Harmony." The Voice Box itself is pictured on screen, and the controls are shown being shifted by Jack as the effects show up. :)

[ommy44]

@ghazalpremi if u steal Nataly, I'll steal Jack, he's a cutie patootie!

[SuiCideTheCrazyOne]

Dude u should try to play Saw theme song (!!!)

[ghazalpremi]

Jack, sorry but I'm in love with Nataly and I really wanted to marry her but you guys look so great together and complement each other so well and you urslelf are a very likable dude. So I've decided it's a sin to want her like that. So I release her from my stronghold without so much as an ounce of regret. You go girl. God bless you two. Just keep making great music like this. I will find another girl and together, we'll listen to your music and share your greatness with our kids some day. :)

[harajukubeta]

@ghazalpremi

I just wanted to tell you made my day

[Ghettofarmerboy]

@ghazalpremi fuckn wack job

[rajahua]

@ghazalpremi

omg )))) LOL )))

[razveck]

The end is so cool xD

[yuppy64]

Aw you were so cute with your attempt at discipline :D

[VampireWolfess]

Lmfao, "Nataly!" XD

[Slotnative345]

Paja..¡¡

[psikomaniak]

you're a fuckin' genius!

[jesicadlt07]

the Nataly cameo was awesome, as well as the song!

Please do a cover of Radiohead's "Subterranean Homesick Alien"!!! PLEASE! OOH, do it w/ Nataly i wanna c her take on the vocals.

[miguelbalop]

[Hakerus]

[rocker685]

[perfectupper90]

This doesn't remind me of Radiohead... It reminds me of Jack Conte! Great stuff, man!

[xlurielxl]

Haven't heard one of Jack or Natalys songs that i haven't liked.

Blow my mind every time.

[iRumble1]

I push the Everything Button :)

Realy nice work. i hear this song everyday.

More more more

[BrandtCooley]

I think this guy grew up in a very similar reality to me

[tchyah]

You and Nat are the cutest couple EVAR! like EVAR!!!

[xAntiNazix]

Great song man. I really like your style.

Also the vocal lines and the whole feel remind me of Radiohead for some reason..

[sabbath994]

please put this on itunes!!!

[montagfire]

nice teeth

[ericairis]

i hear radiohead influences and it's nothing but goodness. jack - you are sheer genius. keep it up and pls keep posting!

[shnookyx69]

but James said, "THE..."; "The Shit" means awesome~! (without the "the" then yeah, it's bad, but it IS there) :D

[tbseven]

At 3:00 are you actually using the Jack Black inward singing technique? :O

[SPLEclipse]

I think he's just pulling back his head to tighten his vocal chords for the high note.

[Dhonigk]

I recognize a youtube phenomenon whence I see one...and you sir are one

[paperclipsplane]

That is one heck of a beard!! =)

oh yeah, and your music rocks too xx

[halo5552009]

you freakin ROCK!!!!!!!!

[supersophiee]

you are so incredibly talented.. how have i not heard of you before? absolutely adore your music. and pomplamoose.

[Nowordscameout]

It sounds so much like Gotye.

[skaterblo]

Loving the technological noises making themselves known in this one.

[Jamsessions0]

THIS IS THE SHIT!

[e2h2tony]

Jack great, so's nataly ^_^!!!

[elijg127]

this is how a music video should be... you see the song being made... and performed... not those overly made sets with lots of girls scantily clad with guys and their pimped out cars... just an opinion...

[sputnikowns]

Popular opinion, apparently.

You got +14 with my thumb.

[Perception]

nice one dude, very cool, very radioheady/purcupine treey but original also and very fun and interesting to listen to.

Do you have finished albums out for release. to buy perhaps through CD form or Vynal ?

[cinefilo14]

I love this, I love this, I love this.

Thank you, Tania.

[grassyassmariana]

he is SO BEARDY in this video i LOVE IT

[Babamusik]

Wich song is playing at 3:33?

[stash2]

Its called "Hollywood Endings"

No youtube video yet

you can listen to it on his myspace

[alexruuska]

Man, you and your girlfriend are amazing. Some people just need to be famous already.

[aahamiboy]

impressive

[d1ct10nary]

I had this song stuck in my head all day. This is not a bad thing, as this song is AWESOME!

Hurry up and get famous, Mr. Conte.

[thejakeyboi]

Not bad at all :)

[redgerm1]

Awesome, wish I had 1/2 that talent and all those toys!

[Tekesaurusrex]

sounds sick!!!

[Linzoez]

This is so amazing!!! I love the ending when Natalie comes in.. So cute!!! You can see the happiness glowing in your eyes!!! So wicked! LOVE IT

[twig123]

paranoid android

[dan892k7]

Yeah, there are certain parts that sound almost identical to when Thom Yorke sings "what's there..." in paranoid android.

[xpeeterx]

29/4 at the end.. nice..

[MusiqueFrenetique]

You can say it like that but who counts like this?

First, since that part is double time, you'd say 29/8

Plus you cant really count like that doesnt make sense.. so i'd put it like that: 3 bars of 7/8 and 1 bar of 8/8 (4/4).. way easier to get :)

But i agree i just can't stop listenning to that part... working on a cover hehe..

[PrivateBuckwheat]

I'm pretty sure that's the same tempo as March of the Pigs by Nine Inch Nails.

[MusiqueFrenetique]

Sry my reponse was for xpeeterx.. Im sure I hit response button tho..

[sierramist357]

Seriously, what is the song at the end? It sounded so good! Is that one of his? It sounded like him. Can someone please tell me?

[KatakiUchiha]

It's called "Hollywood Endings", from his EP, "Sleep in Color". He only has "The Greatest Hoax" on YouTube but you can buy the whole EP from him.

[ToTehMoon]

Seriously do get the EP, it's amazing.

[BiscuitsJoe]

woah that was incredible... totally radiohead

what kind of pedal is that on the acoustic that makes pick scrapes sound like lasers?

[mynmyself]

boss aw 3 whatever envelope filter will do the job

[grassyassmariana]

haha the end always makes me giggle

[Flashmaster88]

You're great. Nataly's great. You're great people. This is great!

[sierramist357]

What is the song at the end???

[mikedm15]

that autotuned bit sounded epic!!!

[AnaJuliaLange]

I Love Nataly at the ending! Ahahahaha

Jack! You're amazing!

[Kitschead]

Wow. very paranoid android at parts.

[Inkeyesdave]

I was going to comment about how his progressive style is very similar to Thom Yorke.

[Gufi18]

Hi Jack!! I`m michael from poland... your music is awesome

[Hamgammy]

radiohead copycat

[NathanPathan]

i hear some daft punk in there too lol
