  • this is typical of the Cape coloured community (Griquas, really) who's music is really personal so difficult to name the song if you have not asked the guitarist, could be a common folk song - Davids Kramer did a documentary on their music, so maybe google this doccie

    oh yes, the doccie is called Karoo Blues by David Kramer

  • rad

  • do do do do dooo do do do

  • This is in that Stevie Wonder realm of musicality where you don't even begin to understand how hard this is to do until you try it yourself... I mean, just articulating a slide melody with a spoon in your mouth is hard enough, but this guy has some real finger independence working for him, which is how he gets that simultaneous rhythm line going. Really neat stuff.

  • genius

  • whoa!

  • Genius!!!! why does this not get mainstream attention? i damn well deserves it

  • @freqwhincy Cause this guy's talented...don't you know there's no room in mainstream for talent?

  • @TheOpi8 He plays music for the right reason... because playing music is awesome! Money, fame, MTV and all that plastic crap is not important. What's important is that he and the people that experience his tunes are having an awesome time!

  • this is my favorite go-to happy song.

  • I usually put the other end of the spoon in my mouth...... What was I thinking!!???!!!!

  • The spoon is in his mouth? That's hard to do.

  • Everyone should shut the fuck up and watch this guy play guitar with a spoon

  • i just came to watch a video about a man playing guitar with spoons.

    people really do take themselves far too seriously.

  • Amazingly cool!!

  • This is by far the happiest slide playing I have ever heard.

  • People allowing simple words to have so much power over them is the reason they're used as weapons by the ignorant in the first place.

  • @Qzzrbl

    If u cant understand gays, u should at least respect them... Im with ofmgs kus Im hetero and have some very cool gay friends. and u know why im friends with them? because they r fun and nice! one of my GAY friends is worth 1000 times more to me than a hetero scum like you or other ignorant haters.

  • @daniel93382

    I respect them, and I too have some very cool gay friends.

    It just annoys the piss out of me when people don't realize that defending the definition of a "bad word" will always keep it a bad word.

    Words like "Faggot" are beginning to transition to a different definition, just as they have in the past, and just as they always will. It went from bundle of sticks, to old lady, to cigarette, to homosexual-- it's gonna keep going if people stop making a big fuss about it.

  • @Qzzrbl

    Couldn't agree more. sry bout getting a little upset, i didnt actually get ur point before.

    words r just words... we r the ones who give meaning to them right?

    im completely with u on that.

  • @Qzzrbl This is a very important premise of yours, that the word 'faggot' is changing meaningfully in its use. Prove it. Just as 'faggot' meaning 'cigarette' evolved from 'faggot' meaning 'bundle of sticks'- due to the physical resemblance- without changing the fundamental meaning of the word, so does the use of 'faggot' to denote 'bad person' evolve from 'faggot' to mean 'gay person' without altering the fundamental antipathy to homosexuality on which the insult is based. Am I wrong? Prove it!

  • @ofmgs

    Morever, if you want to discuss the issue further, I ask that you send me a private message or something.

    People came to this page to see an old man play a guitar with a spoon-- not to read controversial comments that aren't at all related to the original video, ya dig?

  • @Qzzrbl Funny. I came here for the same purpose. I found, instead, a heavily-upvoted comment stating that people who comment on dislikes are 'faggots'. I posted about it, and months later you started this conversation. Don't pretend you have the moral high ground.

  • @ofmgs

    I never once claimed to have any moral high ground, or that I didn't begin this discussion.

    True, I did comment at first with the intent of a wee bit of trolling for some lulz, but the discussion has since run deep. The internets is srs bizness, so might we continue this little talk through the proper channels?

    (hint: the comments section of this video =/= proper channels)

  • @Qzzrbl Also, as a member of the oppressor class in question, who are you to make decisions about what 'faggot' means? Sorry- straight people used the word to oppress gay men; it belongs irrevocably to us now, on the same principle that, if you hit someone with a rock, you can't expect them to give it back to you. If the word 'faggot' changes in meaning, you will have no authority to shape its new definition. Gay men, as a whole, still suffer violence through this word. It's ours to define.

  • @ofmgs

    Good sir, words aren't rocks, and no person or persons can "own" a word... Unless they have it trademarked, but I digress.

    And I can't prove it unless people stop bitching and moaning about how hurtful words are. Only when that happens, will the definition change. It's already happened in the past, and there's really no need to prove it-- 'cause it's happened already, you see?

    Ever heard the phrase "sticks and stones"?

    Seriously-- look it up and take it to heart.

  • The World Anthem!

  • Aaaand sunnovabitch, double-comment. >~<

  • Beautiful song.

    Please delete the nonsense postings from morons.

  • he is awesome i wanna meet him

  • why the hell are you guys talking about homosexuality? Did you even watch this awesome video? spoon slide? shit is too awesome.

  • Eventually, with continued use, the word "faggot" will lose it's association with homosexuals, just as it's meaning as "bundle of sticks" and "old woman" have been thrown out the window as the word continues to evolve. Clinging on to old definitions will only have "faggot" remain exclusively an insult towards gay folks.

    And really, I think homosexuals will breathe a sign of relief when "faggot" isn't an insult towards their personal lifestyle choices.

  • @Qzzrbl Just like the n-word, huh?
