Owen - The Sad Waltzes of Pietro Crespi

[CGCD]

Los vals tristes de Pietro Crespi, la tristeza hecha canción... hecha realidad, Soledad eterna, duradera, acompañante fiel

[ChadC919]

Jesse you are not just bitch.

[ChadC919]

I'd get it if you were drunk and couldn't get friends.

[666Thechaser]

One of the better things I've ever seen/heard. Understated brilliance.

[SwelshieSwe]

Wow, what a voice. Obviously like this!

[bluishfireworks]

i have very mixed feelings about this song. a part of me loves this song because it's ridiculously beautiful and because it references "one hundred years of solitude" which is one of my favorite books. another part of me hates it because it just makes me feel so goddamn lonely. ;-;

[jaed005]

"Cien años de soledad" es mi novela favorita, esta canción describe perfectamente el amor en solitario de la obra

[Chickenjuggle]

[Hollowableful]

the dog looks like Spot The Dog :3

[anidaguila]

i love that book!

[aliendico8421]

poor dog.... the video presents the life of pietro when he was left..... i guess...

[xasdrubalex]

@aliendico8421 when he commit suicide.

[tg343441]

"One night he sang. Macondo woke up in a kind of angelic stupor that was caused by a zither that deserved more than this world and voice that led one to believe that no other person on earth could feel such love. Pietro Crespi saw the lights go on in every window in town expect that of Amaranta. "

Do your sensuality a favor and buy read this book if you haven't yet

[AmberSHAZAMM]

i don't get it...why did the doggy leave him. :(

[brokenlock037]

...by the gall of her bitterness, as everyone had thought, but that both both actions had been a mortal struggle between a measureless love and invincible cowardice, and that the irrational fear that Amaranta had always had of her own tormented heart had triumphed in the end." ~Gabriel Garcia Marquez, pg. 249.

I just wanted to post this so people would stop saying Amaranta had no heart. She was just flawed and she was probably one of my favorite characters in the story.

[brokenlock037]

"Amaranta, however, whose hardness of heart frightened her, whose concentrated bitterness made her bitter, suddenly became clear to her in the final analysis as the most tender woman who had ever existed, and she understood with pitying clarity that the unjust tortures to which she had submitted Pietro Crespi had not been dictated by a desire for vengeance, as everyone had thought, nor had the slow martyrdom with which she had frustrated the life of Colonel Gerineldo Marquez been determined..."

100 Years of Solitude FTW

[tardonamoto9]

Owen is perfect to play on those lazy days or when you're hungover.

[stickysponge]

...But why did the dog have to blast off? :'(

[superpumpernickel]

@stickysponge because he heard that owen was about to take him to the vet to put him down.

[nofalter0x]

the world is so cold.... -_-

[misszale]

oh my dog the crying dog with no eyes made me SO sad. why??

[rbh1138]

@misszale Because it IS sad. If it doesn't make you feel something someone would have to be cold or never loved a pet. It reminds me of a dog I use to have. Also some other memories but if you've loved something and lost it, its sad.

[blackcherrywoman]

i fell in love with pietro crespi when i was reading the book :D hahahaha song is great

[noobz0r]

i'm only asking 'cause i don't wanna die! aloooone

[ilovecameron19]

every song this guy writes is one where you say "i wish i wrote this"

[williamxlange]

@ilovecameron19 I really just wished I was Mike Kinsella.

[ilovethesechords]

Pietro Crespi was an Italian musician who installed a pianola in the Buendia household. The youngest two Daughters in the household, Rebeca and Amaranta, fall deeply in love with him. Pietro chose Rebeca to marry, but Amaranta delays the wedding long enough for Rebeca to be swooned by another man. Pietro retains his dignity and visits the Buendia household regularly, ultimately falling in love with Amaranta. After a prolonged engagement, she rejects Pietro to spite him, leading him to suicide

[santiagoeag]

@ilovethesechords fucking spoilers

[xaaronjohnsonx]

[shelbatr0n]

SO EXCITED. To see Mike on the 24th.

[EekZombies]

LUCKY!!!!!

[santiagoeag]

100 años de soledad es una de las razones por las cuales me da gusto hablar español

[LelouchRebelliondbz]

Pietro killed himself over losing his love Rebecca because Rebecca's sister also loved Pietro so she delayed there marriage then Pietro loses Rebecca to another man and Pietro turns her sister but she also rejects him sick irony haha

[8249516]

i <3 this video and song. and owen. NOOO come back dog

[DuraConfesion]

awesome!!! i love it!!

[GameZombieIC]

continuing: but it uses the character pietro crespi and his troubles to represent that.

[GameZombieIC]

the whole reference to pietro crespi is of one hundred years of solitude. he was this italian man who loved a girl he was engaged to marry. she ended up cheating on him and running off being with another man. then he fell in love with the man's sister who was a rotten woman who pretended to like him and then dont him shed rather die than marry him. so he slit his wrists and put them in a tub of benzoin. he died alone because the two girls he loved didnt love him back. the song is about life,but.

[coche111]

YEah! i'm from colombia, 100 años de soledad is a great novel!.

[holland2312]

what is the relevance of putting his hands in benzoin?

[leaflette1234]

the novel says that Pietro Crespi put his hand into a bowl of that after he committed suicide by slitting his wrists. ;)

[arigatomrrobato]

anmarata wasn't a "rotten woman who pretended to like him". maybe you should read the book instead of finding all your answering on wikipedia you dumb shit. she did love him, alot more than rebeca did, except she had a proud heart and wouldnt admit it. when pietro killed himself she burned her hands and wore the same cloth around them until her dying day.

[wishingiwasaghost]

your a douche. hi douche.

[Cunt03]

You mean the book by Gabriel Garcia Marquez? I havnt read that one but I read several other. Beautiful, brilliant author. I hope we are talking about the same thing. lol.

[GlassEater]

I was explaining the literary reference to Pietro Crespi's name and nothing more. Let's calm it down slick, I mean unless you wrote the song which you feel as though you did so I'll leave you to gloat.

[GlassEater]

A complete disregard for the meaning of the song. It's hardly about a dog going to space! Pick up 100 Years of Solitude as sleepingpills said, it a decent book, but Pietro Crespi is a character who is in love with someone who won't love him and I think he ends up killing himself, read the book sometime, it's good.

[jesuswassooooemo]

haha its about waay more than just that

its about life in general...

[jaffins]

it has to be more meaningful than this...

[sliphorn88h]

oooohh...he made a literary allusion in a pop song. what a tosser. this crap is boring

[overclocked09]

go hug a speeding train.

thank you

=]

[sliphorn88h]

eat a dick.

You're welcome.

=)

[WolReaper]

pretty good song, and pietro crespi is a character in marquéz´s book One Hundred Years of Solitude, and this song just fits to the book,I can´t help my self!:D great!
