[Lukenizado]

gfl;hsdkjh;ldhja;sdlhreihjpreo­h The tallest man on earth, sdhgowirhiowrhnroih "It will follow the rain." Take it away!

[ThelastJohnSilver]

@Lukenizado

welcome back dear viewers, now it's time for the tallest man on earth to perform his song, It will follow the rain. Take it away.

[DoktorLinus]

Geni... nuff said

[SansGray]

I wonder why he has a southern accent. Maybe that's just how he sings.

[birdlydish124]

@SansGray He also kinda has a southern accent because Johnny Cash is one of his main inspirations. He does an interesting cover of "Walk the Line"

[Shizka]

@birdlydish124 "Walk the Line" is not a cover of Johnny Cash. It is an original song by him :)

[birdlydish124]

@Shizka damnit you're right! lol, well whatever. I guess that's why I thought his cover was a bit off haha

[Shizka]

@birdlydish124 I thought exactly the same the first couple times I heard the song... Then I listened to the one by Johnny Cash... Quite different! :P

This song is just so awesome!

[nickfromCO]

he looks like a white manny pacquiao

[TheMidas360]

He took it away!

[RTarGuy]

[ThelastJohnSilver]

@MatthewPietrus that makes it so much cooler you know...

[MegaGreengod]

@MatthewPietrus it is, Kristian never ages. . . That is one benefit of being an artist.

[MelleB90]

@MegaGreengod I wish I had a fucking moustache like that at six years old!

[samuils]

G'd I have been looking for this song for AGES I love it sooooooo much

[GregoryElkins]

His Mustache is so manly.

Bob Dylan + Burt Reynolds = Tallest Man on Earth

[TheBenSigmund]

[KoiChannel]

[hudsonmarco]

[DennanX]

så jävla fucking amazing ! Få låtar som får fram så många känslor på samma gång. Man blir nästan ledsen och glad på samma gång

[kacper11]

Yes it is awesome

[snowblue18]

for some reason while watching this i was half expecting matt damon to slowly move his head onscreen an say 'Matt Damon' team america style

[lalalizzy]

this is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[josefstrand]

kimmer få ig på provet imorn men vad gör det, jag har nyss upplevt något jag ej kan beskriva.

[eriksborn]

Jävligt bra låt, men jag stör mig redigt på att nån klippt bort de sista sekunderna av låten.

[mulicnik]

he's a MADMAN! (ment in most positive way !)

[josieradomski81]

[tombom52]

@Pfannenwender >sweden

[hataru4never]

@Pfannenwender good question

[kalli199]

[jannesgympakompisar]

hur längesen va de här?

[home2oblivion]

i thought new music was dead until i heard this guy

[yungjmoneyboy]

@home2oblivion well man when 90% of the human population has no good musical tastes the shitty music is gonna blow up while the small amount of good music is left to be dug up

[BiscutLad]

@home2oblivion I know exactly how you feel. It's refreshing to hear a new singer like this guy.

[Rabackup1974]

@BiscutLad Sub-Nigger, get a life stupid Nigger.

[BiscutLad]

@Rabackup1974 Wow, how ignorant.

[Rabackup1974]

@BiscutLad Dumb ass sub-nigger. I told you I got a lot of time bring it on Sub-nigger.

[Rabackup1974]

@BiscutLad Dumb ass sub-nigger. I told you I got a lot of time bring it on Sub-nigger. Your dumb ass sub-nigger mother is ignorant

[Rabackup1974]

@Rabackup1974 If only you saw my face you would run dumb ass. BiscutLad, don't be starting trouble, and running. I would break you. God damn retard don't you under-stand.

[yungjmoneyboy]

[drewisanass]

This man never ceases to amaze me

[TheMrStarri]

He´s the best. NO DOUBTS!

[Awhaleable]

1:20 by the fire with a what?

[pierregerard93]

@Awhaleable "with an eager friend in his hand." I would definitely want to be that friend.

[whoopsydaezy]

@Awhaleable an EAGER friend. i was concerned. so i looked it up.

[maxcope540]

7 people wont follow the rain

[DivineNucleus]

Earth Will, EARTH'S TRUE WILL -- the whore is not the Earth's will. a fatherly legend, to be a hero to the lost children abroad a ship with -- as it were, and JUSTICE being the blade of the hero, then, victorious. HEN CODE, code war you say? more like the jaws of a snare, fretted snare and a clever shank. HEN Code is loyal to Collin's word, like a jack knife. Arrange the preparations for the King. --

[wikinger95]

he is looking so caught , from his own music.

its fantastic

[PenceyPrepsDropout]

Seeing him tomorrow night in Philly and desperately hoping he plays this.

[ytcarol]

Anybody in D.C. - he is playing at the 9:30 Club on Sun. Oct. 3.

[mhmusick]

@ytcarol I was at that show! At the very front... it was magnificent, yea?

[thomaseiler]

@mhmusick

- and it must have been great to have heard the ending;-)

I saw him yesterday in Copenhagen, hes just getting better...

[mhmusick]

@thomaseiler Oh, it was so so grand. He's so magnificent live. I'm sure you're still on that post-show high, yea?... I'm still trying to recover from the show I went to. It was just all around perfect.

[thomaseiler]

@mhmusick

Ill keep a high going way into 2011!!

- he got quite busy on the electric guitar and the rhodes,

and it never lacked roughness or smoothness-

just added up to the multifacetted palette og emotions...

[thomaseiler]

@thomaseiler

- OF emotions... goodmorning...

[firewalking44]

The tuning is

DGDGA#D

[Gunnerss09]

@firewalking44 ...same as Where Do My Bluebird Fly...really similar sound too :P

[spicychicken92]

wtf is just me or does his head look fuckin HUGE?!

[yungjmoneyboy]

@spicychicken92 who gives a fuck..

[szllar]

@spicychicken92

he has the head of the tallest man on earth. He`s simply a tiny man. But he could have a head double big than this, he would be still awesome.

[KitsuneWoman]

@spicychicken92 LOL, yes it does. He is a really, really tiny guy though, thus the ironic name. I've met him. He might be 5'6" and 140 lbs.

[theycallmekiki]

I feel like it's important to say something about how amazing he is, but I'm so stunned I can't think of anything. For people that claim modern music is crap, I present Kristian Matsson as proof that isn't so. You just have to know where to look.

[BaronK69]

Too damn good!

[zengravy]

Just watched this guy at the Green Man festival. he is fucking AWESOME. (and |I normally reserve that word for ACTUAL deities). He's like a modern Nick Drake. Like Nick Drake's sensitivity combined with early Dylan's poeticism. Seriously fucking good.. This is amazing.. Check out "Love is All" xxx

[Shazbotben]

Jesus fucking Christ, this is awesome.

[YooToobCanSuckIt]

God damn the end of this video gives me blue balls.

[R34n1mated]

The Voice, the lyrics, the intricate fingerwork...what else can this man master?

[hobbitmanda]

<3 amaaaz\ing

[diego47ak]

Oh my friends, it will follow the rain.

So it will.

[O2BGodsown]

It's a soft rain's a-gonna fall (is falling, is falling) till God's glory covers the earth

as the water covers the sea and the lightning is set free and we are one through eternity . . . and He will say, well done!

[BastardFace81]

I loved this guy and always presumed he was American with that voice. I was surprised when I found out he is Swedish. This is an amazing tune that got me hooked on him instantly. Can't wait to see him this summer.

[iamjoedubois]

thats was a weird ending

[gbrllglr]

This is the video that made me fall in love with him. Now he is one of my favourite artists.

[ZwienerZ]

I'm seeing him in Austin, TX this September!!!

[CaptainLavenderBand]

This isn't fare this exists. It's to beautiful.

He reminds me of a cartoon character when he plays. Who'd thought that voice and power would come from him....

[miltonatchet]

reminds me of bob dylan

[filulilus]

I would kill for his voice o;

[crazytrain1889]

swedes have great english accents

[Defsolid]

@crazytrain1889 you mean american accent.

[irishprice]

@Defsolid ......... -.-

[achickensandwich]

@crazytrain1889 They do have great English accents, but in an eerie, uncanny-valley way. Like... Canadians...

[gigags0212]

he always ha that small stache...i say he grows a big bushy one.

[bluelagoon10023]

I saw him in belfast awhile back there in a small venue....he is electric.

[thetellurian]

anyone know what kind of guitar that is?

[jojoyear]

@thetellurian im afraid i dont recognize this one either, but he uses a few different guild guitars in some other videos round here...

[soulfullist]

To each his own. But he does look drunk.

[gtron30]

@soulfullist that makes no sense. also who cares if he's drunk, i don't think he is, he still played the shit out of that song and if he can do that drunk what does it matter

[wassupdoc319]

my head feels amazing when your in my earbuds

[Yebutou]

@wassupdoc319 Highhhh

[flubby8765]

It will follooooooooooooooooooooow. The rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Bleep.

[allthekentsmen]

incredible stuff.

[tadhg66]

This is just silly. He is unashamedly ripping Dylans style, both lyrically and in performance. Dylan has already nailed this type of folk songwriting to the wall and he did it 40 odd years ago. Just listen to Dylans early stuff and this guy becomes but a shadow.

[lfanoni]

@tadhg66 idk... dylan was a bit of an ass... trying to start some kind of narcissistic revolution (and was himself copying Guthrie). Tallest Man is just innocently, charmingly good. He writes beautiful music that, yes, is inspired by folk - but certainly is not trying to be anything else but beautiful.

[jaybambu]

Whatever, wherever you come from just listen to this guy inside or rather outside yourself. You'll get it. just open your heart. brilliant! thank you.

[peakloveya]

He is the Swedish Bob Dylan. Just love it!

[smcguiness809]

@peakloveya ur rite and he has a better voice too

[MrPivotmaster4]

Going to see this guy on Saturday night.

[commanderetardo]

first time i have heard him here and yes, the dylan comparison is going to happen but its pretty clear that folk / dylan / guitar are merely the conduit for some genuine sentiment here. he is not sharing a spotlight, he is carrying a torch.

[kufferman]

you have called and we have answered, great isnt he.. (scotland uk)

[lenny2130]

VERY VERY Much influenced by Bob Dylan and Cash, but it's nice to finally see a modern folk artist of that type, who's musical motifs haven't been raped a pop chart... For those reasons alone, I appreciate his music, and will buy both his albums, and will continue to buy them till he sells out anyway

It's true finger picking is repetitive, but hasnt the singer and guitar type thing always had a certain amount of repitition.... This guy's great, love all his songs

[tmoney4life0]

its bob dylan

[GDub180]

what tuning is this in

[veilside000]

@GDub180 CFCFCF

[opticmovies]

@veilside000 what strings does he use for each note - cause you couldn't retune a standard guitar into that, could you?

[smcguiness809]

@opticmovies yea ya can surly 

[lfanoni]

I never want him to get big like John Mayer... He's such a treasure. Hollywood would never accept him as he is. And he would, I'm sure, never want to be like Hollywood.

[Elba951]

i cant get over how amazing this is

[Mega44332211]

Arvin gotbi

[Mega44332211]

Arvin gotbi

[Fly11493]

There's NOTHING i don'tlike about this guy and his performance and the song. He brings a unique style to us and i think he is utterly amazing and he voice and his looks are something that will never bore me. i can't explain it but just the way he presents himself brings a weird sense of mystery or something... it reminds me of "Into The Wild" (an excellent movie, i definately reccomend it to anyone) - he's just so individual. i love him!

[ytcarol]

@Fly11493 I like your comments - you definitely get him!

[Kitchenfreak81]

wonderful song! and a very charactrestic voice. I only wish he woulnd't "fuck around" when he sings..

making them silly faces and such. it ruins the preformace a bit in my opinion.

[caturian]

John Mayer makes silly faces when he sings and people fall at his feet.

If making faces is what he needs to do in order so sing, then he can make faces all day long. lol

[Kitchenfreak81]

@caturian haha I see your point :) but let me rephrase. He seems to make silly faces on purpose :) as much as i love the songs i can't take him seriously.

and John Mayer is a much better singer for that matter.

[Kitchenfreak81]

just look around 2:22

[ChanceCooper125]

@Kitchenfreak81 John Mayer sucks. Just saying. He isn't even comparable to TTMOE.

[Kitchenfreak81]

@ChanceCooper125 that is your opinion and you're entitled to it. But it's wrong! :)

[Kitchenfreak81]

@ChanceCooper125 I could pull the old "look at recordsales" argument. But that has nothing to do with personal taste. :) have a nice day

[zendeeQ241]

@Kitchenfreak81 does he need to be serious?

whos serious these days

his lyrics are deep and hes havin fun

i cant think of a better artist to date

[Kitchenfreak81]

@zendeeQ241 ofc that is his choise how "Serious" he want's to be. I'm just saying what that made me feel. I'm sure alot of ppl don't mind or don't even notice it. But It bothered me. but as I said, the music and the lyrics are awessome.

[kalimamma]

Yes we know it

and we love it

:)

<3

[idaja]

this is beautiful! and I'm gonna see him tonight :)

[alistairproductions]

i love the dylan-ness without "trying to be" dylan or anything for that matter

[PennyLanefromParis]

This song gives me goosebumps, it's a masterpiece!

[ac0unt]

Love your voice and song <3

[honk0s]

he is so talent, but in sweden they dont now it yet..

[oaken89]

We do know it :)

[NisseHax]

@honk0s i do!

[rtt123ant]

yummy :)

[gorflaxion]

I get goosebumps everytime

[rtt123ant]

Hes so awsome.

The first time i ever heard this song i cryed.

[AskeFvad]

Me to and im a boy :D

[OwwKayy]

I love the way the vidoe ends lol. Amazing song, pure at heart.

[Josefost]

The new album is scheduled for release in march/april! If the new American recordcompany keeps their promise and release it on time. Cant wait!!

[StoryBookster]

Wow, he's amazing.

I looove this song.

[Laloetie]

he's amazing

[cardarelli5390]

his finger picking is very repetitive in each of his songs. somehow i do not get sick of it.

[multitasker235]

@cardarelli5390 I think it's because he delivers the message that other songs just don't quite have, that's just with his music. Better than all of this 'modern c"rap"' we have to deal with now.

@cardarelli5390 Yeah, this re
