  • @Chimpstorm551 go to bed

  • BEAUTIFUL...

  • anyone got Anatidaephobia from this video?

  • @sibbo3876 No, but haha!

  • DUCKS!

  • badly drawn boy is an anagram for y draw bob dylan

  • the piano sample was taken from Republika - Jej brzuch

  • @WKaliberr No it wasn't. It's a similar melody, but they didn't sample it.

  • where is he he now? what the hell? of of the top musicians ever!!

  • @sophiefrost I saw him just over a week ago at a charity gig called 'Laugh or the polar bear gets it'. He was brilliant as expected and pretty funny. He's written some new material for a De niro film.

  • Absolutely love this song. Was watching About a boy the other day and the soundtrack to that movie is amazing. Badly Drawn Boy=Amazing!! Also the movie is one of my faves.

    cant get enough of it.

    :) x

  • poor ducky =...(...

  • Yes, this song is amazing! I particularly enjoy the ENTIRE SONG!

  • life sucks 

  • great

  • loveeeee..... this fuking song, it´s amaizing

  • gracais busque esta cancion por años T_T !!!!

  • 'Silent sigh!'

    

  • it is nice that people can watch something like this and feel sympathy for a lesser creature. It always brings a tear to my eyes when I watch it.

  • mOST tENDER VIDEO I EVER SEEN LATELY,

    LOVE IT

  • Ducks rule!

  • Guy used to live across the road from me, never found out till a few days ago, heh, small world I guess.

  • My pensive driving song...

  • buenos recuerdo con esta cancion ..que buena musica se hacia en lo 90s

  • @tainy27 es del 2002 sino me equivoco.

    Badly Drawn Boy es un artista indie muy bueno en sus inicios, te recomiendo el Hour Or Bewilderbeast del 2000.

  • was the robot selfish or one of the kindest beings?......did he make the ending good for him or the duck?

  • it's so awkwardly sad

  • Loooove this one!!! And the video! Miss the old MTV videos (the good ones of course), they dont show them any more, I m gettting old! O.o

  • Very Very Very Very UpBeat!!!

  • SWEET TUNE STANDARD

  • tony from skins, sweet!

  • Esta cancion me encanta, de lo mejor que he escuchado

  • @Vevina2Utube จุ๊บๆๆ

  • ay no pobre patita q bonito q el robot iso el final feliz :D

  • รักเพลงนี้ที่สุดเลยล่ะ...^^..

  • @ratmack1 เหมือนกันเลยยยยยยยยยยย

  • just found out damon gough was born in my hometown lol , wasn't raised here though, not surprising lmao

  • how can u not love this song?

    

  • thumbs up if Before Sunrise brought you here

  • I'm so glad I wrote down Badly Drawn Boy as an artist to look into while I was at Border's today. I think I may have found my new favorite artist.

  • beautiful song!!!

  • crackin tune - camping next to water is better though

  • love the movie tie-in :D

  • 33 people sigh too loudly :(

  • It also took me about ten years to know the name & composer of this tune!

  • I've been watching this movie on and off for the last few years and have always wanted to listen to this song whenever it played during the movie. The other day while studying at a Coffee Bean they played this song and I Shazaamed it on my phone. Best app I ever put on my phone b/c now I finally get to hear this song whenever I want instead of once ever other year for seconds at a time.

  • @catch2284 Did you seriously need Shazam to find out the artist? I mean you could read the movie credits, google it, find the soundtrack in a record store etc...

  • one of my favorite videos even though kinda sad and so sweet at the same time

  • why does this song make me think of OwlCity "salt water room"?

  • what a sweet video .. that mallard is in heaven (silent quack)

  • top song ,top film, top book, top duck

  • @iampunitan hahahah top duck !! so cute coment :).. lovely.

  • @iampunitan I don't know why I remembered Top Gear xD

  • @iampunitan

    dead duck.

  • i think we all need to ERASE BAD MEMORY and REPLAY WITH HAPPY ENDING

  • Ahh that wasn't good

  • The duck smiling at 3.19 is the best part of the video you collection of microbes

  • How is it that everyone seems to know this song yet no one knows the name

  • the dead duck killed by a handmade bread LOOOOL

  • Kind of makes me think about the transient nature of memory. "Badly Drawn Boy" has to be one of the cleverest names ever for a performer. Cool song too, makes me think of walking.

  • Perfect!

  • the duck smiles at 3.19

  • EVERY BAD MOMENT NEEDS A HAPPY ENDING REPLACEMENT!

  • @HumanVersion2

    About A Boy

  • I like the happy ending!

  • @HumanVersion2 this song is about a duck

  • watch?v=xfv2pFddqKs <3

  • Really not a gay song Glesgabred, It was used in a hetrosexual romantic comedy for God's sake. I'm not gay and I'm sure there are may others who've commented who aren't gay....grow up

  • Gay ? Scmay, its a song. thats all, a fine one.

  • Will someone please tell me the truth. Is this a GAY song? I've been looking at all the comments below and they must be from poofs. Am I right?

  • @Glesgabred grow up dumbass, it's just a song, and is way better then your justin bieber's favourites.

  • Comment removed

  • hidden gem -this track is almost forgotten- this and , camping next to water , are cracking tunes by the B.D.BOY

  • Love Hugh Grant's face at 3:14-3:15, he's like "What the fuck?"

  • I saw this on a website with lots of new bands, including my faveroute band, Foals, glad I discovered this today, such good chill out music

  • absolutely lovely, it makes me dream of...

  • beautiful song, there are few to many ppl really taking time to create true art these days

    everyone is just pursuing material wealth and glory

  • This song gets me a bit teary eyed...in part because of the scene in the movie when this song is playing, I think. But also because it's just so beautiful.

  • song and video make me cry

  • Man Ive been looking for this song for at least ten years.

  • Comment removed

  • @dupapa33 wow!! that's like nine years and then another year on top. But i suspect u didnt spend every second of every hour hunting... when u boil it down, just how long did u actually look, 10 seconds here, a minute then, make a cup of coffee and another 30 secnds there.... bet uve only really spent 20 minutes looking, but glad u got ur wish anyway.

  • @bryngOneOn I talk with dupapa33 and he said that he spent at least 8-10 hours a day looking for this song for the last 10 years...these are facts and indisputable

  • @dupapa33 ive got 1 of them, but havent been lucky enuf 2 find it yet

  • @dupapa33 me too, I finally found it a couple days ago thanks to a playlist in youtube tho.

  • I like this song..good song for good person

  • This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard.

  • anyone noticed it's an anagram of why draw bob dylan?!

  • @MattySP34Ks ....Where's the "h" in Badly Drawn Boy to make the anagram then ?
