Alela Diane - The Pirate's Gospel

[TheUberYout]

22 people works for the East India Company

[PopHeidi]

Allez comprendre ces 22 personnes, inconscientes qui n'aiment pas ce son. Elles sont tout bonnement incompréhensibles.

[FourFingerDjango]

please!

[FourFingerDjango]

need the banjo tab for it!!!

somebody knows?????

[FourFingerDjango]

@fourfingerpirate lol cool name

[imagineophelia]

grreat voice , wonderfully filmed !!!

[TrinkMilch]

going to see her opening up for fleet foxes next week, could that combination be any better?

[kristovx7]

"Now, Alela Diane looks like she is a dustbowl Betty thinkin' about FDR, the New Deal and the Tennessee Valley Authority, but that is a lie concocted in her mind. She does her best to fool us all though, playing some rudimentary instruments made of bones and singing about how she will probably have to boil the cat down for soup with a bite of her banjo for dessert. At no point does she acknowledge the existence of electricity. She has probably seen 'O Brother Where Art Thou' 893 times." lol

[AllMusicWorld]

Magnifique chanson !!! A ecouter dans le court metrage "Macadam Peau-Rouge" d'Arnaud Malherbe

[Leviathanton]

no it`s one of her best songs (;

[lavanguardiadelsol]

Is this her best song?

[yvd1ange]

je viens de découvrir cette chanson "sublime" quelle voix et la musique adorable!

bravo de nous emmener ailleurs!

[YvesNancy]

@yvd1ange Tout à fait d'accord !

[YvesNancy]

Tout à fait d'accord !

[YvesNancy]

Tout à fait d'accord !

[RestlessYooth]

Don't really like the pirate theme to this song but I love how it sounds!

[bludgeonbunny]

Sister needs some singing lessons. Modulating, warble-like voice isn't singing.

[mewdeeone]

@bludgeonbunny I don't believe she said you HAD to be a fan. You're off the hook...on to the next song!

[ExiledPiasa]

that is a cool song... reminds me of some of the dittys we did durning sea and anchor mooring the ship up.

[pistol264]

sexy...sexy

[Dubailime]

AWESOME SONG

[timmydeinum]

very nice greatings from Holland

[ConnorRCS]

She is like a drunk woman who just woke up in a lake after a party

[dickmullen]

@ConnorRCS hahahahhahahhahahha

[drstevie]

just heard "To Begin"...wow !! what a tune...reminds me of Jefferson Airplane ??!!

[Alisc]

Shades of Nina Simone

[littlemissellyme]

aw man. I love the song yet very disappointing video with (I hope) a lack of budget to make anything of merit. Artistic shots in water of a barrel with a strong spot light behind it sadly don't match the creativity of the song for me.

[Jotianca27]

Magniiiifique !!! <3 <3 <3

[mydreamistofly100]

fantastisches lied, liebe es <3

[josh2116]

YO-HO XD

[nadia6876]

excellent magnifique je viend de la découvrir j'adore je sur kiffe

[akallabror]

This song is God.

[wortumherwerfer]

j'adore cette chanson!!!

[nblumer]

So far the best carry-forward of Karen Dalton I know of today. The tempo and style is different but the voice and lyrical quality is quite similar

[MrEllenwork]

@nblumer

looks like her too.

[JolieShoulamite]

Elle semble avoir hyper froid Alela...

[Lotte1a2]

my favo

[m4rlo]

you ho ho you ho ho !!

[xanglat]

@toxicpti... Cette voix est magnifique !

Elle ne semble pas être "traffiquée"..., comme trop de soupes indigestes servies sur le web !

Je trouve réellement cette voix enthousiaste, sereine...nous transportant...dans quelque voyage oxygénant..., nous changeant du quotidien, des strass, des paillettes ! Elle désencombre !!...

Cette chanson et cette voix, ce choeur...ne sont PAS ridicules et faibles, ni mes termes non plus !

Pourquoi tant de mépris, d'agressivité, de dédain ? !

[jenn0jenn0]

awesome video

[rudebwooy51]

someones got the text?

[MissExtraTerrestrial]

@rudebwooy51 Google's got all the lyrics you need!

[pensarbonito]

i love her voice. want more with headless heroes

[69jissum]

Who are the selfish corpo-rot cocksuckers that remove; fiest... honey,honey from this playlist...... along with 20 odd others from my playlists. I shall be channeling some robin hood shit soon, Im going to fuck you up!!! who's with me! B the B... Alela.....Exquisite track, sublime, serene..............oh... make me feel good. Thanks... You save lives.

[slugg63]

I think the video is cool. It suits the mood of the song. If it's too too dark, then use the technology in front of you and hit, "lighten" on your monitor. It's not rocket science. Or turn off the 50 lights that you have on and watch it in the dark. Might give new meaning to the song. If she didn't like the video, she would have changed it.

[xanglat]

Superbe et léger !

Air magnifique qui nous emporte : un véritable envol sauvage et beau !

MERCI

[toxicptl]

@xanglat "un véritable envol sauvage et beau"? Faible. Ridicule et faible.

[welshblondie]

Totally obsessed with this song!

[endisnighe]

Hell yeah!

Thanks to a friend at Above Top Secret got this song.

Reminds me of the beginning of the Pirates of the Carribean: At World's End.

We were never meant to be controlled. We are meant to be free! Free distribution of information, free distribution of thought, free distribution of endeavors!

We are going to sing, dance, eyes WIDE OPEN!

[LeAlboro]

very nice song

[Morigraz]

It's kinda acoustic orgasm

[DemolisherovChrist]

@Morigraz

Please go away, you pervert american.

[AlTheAngryButler]

@DemolisherovChrist

You must be 12 or so, or extremely ignorant and uneducated. Please refrain from posting comments in the future, you'll be saving everyone, including yourself, time.

[DemolisherovChrist]

@AlTheAngryButler

Ignorat? Not I. This is but a call to common decency among us, the internet folk. Can you not be sympathize?

[ManInBones01]

@DemolisherovChrist

Yes. I think ignorant is correct. Forgive Morigraz, and 99% of the human population for enjoying sex. It is a great compliment to the song, sex feels great, and this song feels great, it is beautifully melancholy, and just sounds wonderful. Also, if you look at Morigraz's profile, they are from Austria, not an American country. So before you publish an offhand and baseless assumption, maybe think about what you are saying first.

[JonesJoplin4ever]

@Morigraz definitely it is!

[lavanguardiadelsol]

@Morigraz wow outstanding definition!

[loolovesyou]

I think the music video is good, very haunting the way pirates are, and simple. But it's a little too dark in the lighting, sometimes I'm confused at what I'm even looking at. I caught myself singing this at school recently, I wonder what the people sitting near me were thinking. I would probably be like, wth is this girl singing like a pirate for?

[oderlesseye]

I like the song enough that Eye am an owner of her CD.. Eye even request it on BilgeMonkey radio sometimes...

The Video on the other hand.. Yikes!

[Dogzeggdrum]

@oderlesseye same thoughts entirely, was sick too see but good to hear....

[oooookeeee]

[Wookie88]

joł hoł joł hoł hoł joł hooł hooł

[strassiopi]

Irre super Song, eine Stimme wie vom anderen Stern

[Cairdeas1978]

Feel the power!. Los buccaneros! The soul, the voice! Powerful and so on; yes! As if you are in a bar with live music, but better.

[ThisTooShallPass314]

V'been a long time lover of this song,

never seen the video though.

It's badass.

I'm feelin it.

[Romexmagi69]

This is the coolest video and song ever!

[LockigeGlatze]

Gernany likes it, too

[siamsurf]

The song is nice, but the video really sucks... also she looks like some shy and depressed person while singing... whoever directed this should stop directing.

[EtherMH]

lol that hilarious

[KarmaPaymentplann]

Thats sad of you to say, if thats how she sings while pouring out a song shes singing, why try to look an way else that isnt natural and honest.

[NayrNitsuj]

It is rare when anyone makes a video worth watching isn't it...or am I alone with the feeling?

[MERCROMINA7]

Single pirate gopsbel...oh oh oh....

[stefanborell]

Great song, boring video.

[AilsaRose1]

@stefanborell no waaayyyy i think it's a beautiful video :) it is simple, true, but i think that's just artistic :)

[medievalqueen1215]

@stefanborell actually I think the video goes with the song in a very relaxing way, especially with the blue lighting and the effect of being in water, as in pirates/ships etc.. also goes to show you don't need some high budget thing to make a music video good

[fatass514]

@stefanborell eat shit faggot. you're just too damn retarded to get the fucking video.

[mewdeeone]

@fatass514 Damn the language. It really does blow my mind that any individual that would be attracted to this sort of music would dream of using that language.

[fatass514]

@mewdeeone that's because you have an extremely limited imagination. i would suggest reading more books as a way to improve your creating thinking capacity.

[the1musiclad]

@fatass514 - coming from someone who doesn't know an adjective from a verb. lol. He's right! There's no need to use foul language on a page that young children could (and would hopefully) be viewing.

[fatass514]

@the1musiclad fuck the young children... figuratively speaking of course. after all we wouldn't want them to become like you.

[dadoody]

@stefanborell - Needs more pirates. Maybe a few ninjas.

[crazyladymuse]

I have her album! that beautiful voice just calmes me down.... whenever i am stressed out! great!

[ShowjumpingBabyy]

Love it :)

Another good un'.

[boedawg]

Even in Denmark we'r loooving it :o)

[sterretje112]

I go to a concert of Alela Diane:D

[sterretje112]

Veryyyy goooooood!!!

[ddavis235]

From all your fans and friends in Nevada City, you are awesome.

[sonicjoydivisonswans]

Fuck yes! I wanna see her live so bad!!!

[Lunkanp]

I could really fall in love with this artist-beautiful and beautiful voice. My only complaint is that she is a bit repetitive in a lot of her songs: sing, chant, clap pirates gospel...should have left out clap, imo. Similar situation in a couple songs.

[nubbs]

listen to "honey, honey" by feist after this. both great

[Anacross6]

Great song! Live is awesome!

[LISON9209]

Очень приятная, красивая песня, впрочем как и Alela Diane!!! Спасибо!!!

Пятнадцать человек на сундук мертвеца йо-хо-хо и бутылка рома :)

[moriartyland47]

it's funny, great song ^^

[xx0Marije0xx]

This is such a nice and funny song ^^.

Love it! =D

[NaffyCrei]

WAOUH, merci Taratata :)

[RodneySanches]

This dirge laments the pain and yearns to evade it but then swings back with a stoic defiance, like a yard arm.

[Dorien094]

GREAT ^^

[rocky0urlife]

Envoûtant ...

[canadaddict]

An awesome voice!

[slayersx200]

gospel that is this!!!!!!!!

[geheimpje]

Very nice voice :)

[raychyrara1]

[Smellycat91]

NO THE'RE NOT!!! What r u sum kind of idiot?? lmao

[raychyrara1]

[danikabbani]

[imaglamgirl]

Magiquement envoutant =)

[jk137]

[Kikibear322]

[jcblhoky]

[GroovyGuitar02]

[GroovyGuitar02]

beautiful !

[GothicTeeki]

Prachtig

beautiful

[brokenspears]

this should be the anthem for the "Yoho Family" of America, one of the oldest families in the US. Love her and this song!

[kmill19130]

J'adore

Musique du court métrage macadam peau rouge que j'ai eut le plaisir de voir en avant première avec ma jennifer (l'

[grapadoramix]

nos vemos en el Primaverasound!!

[Fahnestock1]

I saw her last week opening for Blitzen Trapper and she blew the entire audience away with how amazing she is

[runrunrun51]

I'm shocked!!! it's so emotional, so beautiful!!

[scream62]

this is special-its new and old at the same time

its a beauty..

[ChrisyMcCullagh83]

Great stuff.

Never heard of her before.

Nice voice.

Would be a good song to learn.

[JSAJunkie]

Listen to more ... It's addictive ...

[cranewife1289]

i love this folk style. she is awesome! Everyone should know her and The Decemberists!!!!

[evanazo]

she has a music video? dang, i thought she wasn't famous enough.. awesome!

[JSAJunkie]

Beautiful. I never liked American folk until I heard her. WE NEED A SOUTH EASTER USA TOUR ASAP!!!

[tintosangre]

Unique sound. The shift into the deep "Yo-ho" voices is very effective. And her voice stands out on all her material.

[ohthehumanity612]

Micheal Clark Duncan as accompaniment.

[turnipgreen17]

Oh, she is just awesome. beautiful!

[Jibsforyou]

superbe voix sommes allés vous applaudir hier au soir à Alençon super concert bravo !!!

des normands qui aiment votre voix et vos belles mélodies

[johncecilprice]

im totally on an americana done dark, sneaky & kinda creepy-vibe. and lo and behold, i go and find it by a happy-accident. this 25 year old is mixing modern-psych-folk, gospel & doing it all w/a compelling and deeply complex voice/vision of misery while she looks so wholesome. alela has such a darkly exquisite eye for narrative and a depth to her perspective that's huge. i bet this kid is gonna be just as big as her talent is someday. & she already seems to have a dedicated following in france.

[FaustusMinor]

just voices, banjo, guitar & handclapping!

GREAT !!!

[Raquim62]

Pakkend melodietje! Ben er helemaal verslaafd aan.

[Caintro]

teatro mágico! Lovni! amazing video :)

[chicoetereo]

far far west...

[madbiker53]

cool ;-]

[eloe9]

Piękna stylizacja.Adela jest do kochania.

[jnm92]

Well.. The idea is great but it's the same melody all the time..

The same chords too..

It annoys me..

[gixigirl]

great song... i love it :)

[amyroch2006]

My friend showed me her today. And im just like wow! lol. i play guitar + sing. And i really cant wait till i can learn her songs. Shes amazing (:

[Sokaanon]

the song is very lovely, but the video doesn't fit the song.

[stannibroos]

te gek

[JHazelzet]

Lovely. And I thought I was fedd up with pirates for the rest of my life after Depp and Bloom jumped of the screen. I was wrong. what's even better: this is not her only song! ;) awesome!

[karlisbergs]

Beautiful song !

[photobrighton]

OMG! I am totally addicted to this chic right now! I'm going to have to see a doctor soon as I just can't stop listening to this album. It's like crack-cocaine....only better! :-)

[DragonWorshipper]

I just love her album The Pirates Gospel! It's pretty short, but really good. I just love the style and the rythm. The songs have this upward beat in it. (1 'n 2 'n 3 'n 4'n)

[jemappelleagathe]

Love it

[lynxlynx99]

I've liked this song for a while...

THANKS for the video!

she is as beautiful as her voice

[RUBIZA]

beautiful =]!!

[kekeme123a]

[xiii33]

Alela's incredible singer. Love her so much

[jeanleloop]

Pirates are cool! Harr harr

[matteafrika]

very nice song, I'll search to know more about this singer, reminds me a bit of coco-rosie, anyone knows what I mean?

ciao ciao matteo

[tobyoho]

I would say more Joanna Newsom than CocoRosie but hey I don't like to compare people too much :)

[foyan1972]

trop bien,sa prend aux tripes....

[YvesNancy]

Je l'adore ! La chanson et Alela !

[cactusorange]

I love, i love, I love.......so much emotions....  thank you

[hirofukushu]

LOve Alela ! What an amazing voice, soulful, and so graceful !

[AbsurdMangler]

YOU ARE A PIRATE!!!11

No seriously, pirates are cool and so it's self-evident that this song is great as well.

[DoRayMeFa]

This is another great video for alternative music. Thanks, Fargo!
