[anukittta]

GENIUS this specimen

[mushroomagical]

Super wonderful singer-songwriter! I've seen him a few times (solo) somewhere around 2004 or 2005. I was on a light dose of mushrooms on both occasions, and it was a magical time. I met Devendra before and after one of the gigs...he's a really nice guy....fun to be around. I like his new stuff, too, with the band.

[itagthewind]

i read alot of the comments and haveth but one thingeth to sayeth!! :

Mr Banhart knows how to perform very well. I like his shtuff a lot.

[ondesmartenot3]

[FangzLette114]

Devendra is just so beautiful <3

[PlurrRecovery]

Great song! Owl eyes unwinding

[linusspacehead11]

this song is so beautiful and nature-y.

devendra is one of the few artists that even come close to capturing the beauty and magic of nature and putting into a song

[gypsyqueen1964]

Will the real Devendra Banhart please stand up. Every song I listen to, I try to grasp his sprit and who he is. Eludes me every time. Keeps me guessing. I love him who ever he is.

[aiktai]

You know, now he isn't that famous. But probably long after his dead they are gonna say he is te best artist in our time!

[drseuss57]

pure genius!

[liquidgels47]

god i love him.

[omygoshumustbjokin]

just discovered this man, and i'm fucking glad i have :) oooof he's gorgeous

[AmandaPandoraMS]

for me the music ends in 1:20, the rest of all that is a lot of torture! ._.

[massmess]

You can feel early T-REX influence here a lot.

[handofmyears]

[pinkhearts7]

Picture 1:34 ..  um <3

[Rottenriguez]

He's...beautiful

[utterlylu]

Most definitely my favourite song ever by Devendra. He's so creative. Absolutely beautiful <3

[RosettenPower]

his tattoo around his arm is caused ... his ex-girlfriend...

[JOYERLOKE]

[lovernee369]

[smoekdacheeb]

his face is something else, my fellows. what a trip

[angelnlui1]

[aroogooy123]

[zaprudermacphee]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhh. its rasputin

[elsoloho]

@zaprudermacphee

hahaha : D

[blackndwhiteliberal]

good music (side bar) dis guy looks like charles manson lol

[rainbowarrior420]

Devandra Banhart does not look like Charles Manson

[BeibaAX]

@rainbowarrior420 I quite agree. Charles Manson is more attractive, in my opinion. :]

[patachute]

@BeibaAX  my god, Charlie was sexy back in his day and so is this man though hahah :)

[IIRomaII]

OMG THIS SONG IS SOOOOO AWSOME !!!!!! i LOVE YOU <3 JOKES

[MikeBatman]

He looks like a bearded women.

[cogaddis]

He is damn sexy.

[MilaSeahorse]

This guy is so talented. i don't care about what anyone says. That is my opinion

[furrier69]

I've jut become aware of this guy after appearing on Later with Jools Holland and he's great: out there and different, not the usual manufactured dross that the masses listen to in order to gain somesort of identity, a mutual belonging with the other automotons. I prefer to be ridiculed for my choice of lifestyle ethos- music etc than fit into that mundane mould, the mould in which Kerrie Catona belongs (need I say more?)

[LEMONSLOL]

You are an idiot.

[Garlundzie]

haha okay buddy, dont burst a blood vessel

[chrisgrizle]

If you Play this song backwards you become gay.

[zebra522]

Interesting song

[Niamhdm7871]

I respect your vision here. This is a great song and Devendra is a free, artist soul, true :). It's a pleasure to see eccentric artist exsist still. Refreshing verses shitty top 20.

[brennanloltehlol]

i like his hat 0:22

[brennanloltehlol]

I love playing this song on guitar iys so awesome and everyone always says its a cool song my video is up in the video responses ^^^^^

[tysonmofka]

i am not a racist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but i heards that he drinks his soup like a chinese person.

[davidklausa]

The Chinese know soup. Drinking soup, so much faster than spooning!

[demiurge714]

im pretty baked but this song sounds sooooo tite haha

[rtuzak91]

GENIUS

[Wrxrtd]

For fucks sake! Its PERSONALITY and CHARISMA and SELF BELIEF that counts and is what makes people successful!

[petercharlescollins]

lol linkin park...

[rrobey320]

Also chrisgrizle you have no musical knowledge what so ever apprently go listen to linkin park dick lol.

[rrobey320]

Remind's me of Charles Manson.

[chrisgrizle]

devendra banhart IS OBVIOUSLY A BUTT FUCKING QUEER "Everybody thats inside me"...YEAH I BET.

[kiba2447]

Yeah you bet what? You're a fucking retard lol.

[rtuzak91]

he had a relationship with natalie portman, let's see you do better ya fuck.

[MissPurpleMoon1]

pfft like putting people down helps anything. *rolls eyes* so, if you hate an artist, then don't COMMENT on the VIDEO. how about THAT? 'cause why are you watching it anyways if you hate it?

[MissPurpleMoon1]

ooh, so you're a stereotype? "hippies," hahahahaha. it seems like you are one of those people who think you are so great, when you are no better than anyone else.

[stuckinmiddleearth]

you have issues man!

[brennanloltehlol]

YA SO!

[SteevyG92]

go back to nam

[Krakaras]

@MissPurpleMoon1 lol..............well said

[yeahyeahyaha2]

@MissPurpleMoon1 the comment section in youtube is as Free as Devendra's soul, so, if you are a kid(or a childish-unmatured-narrow-mind­ed adult) who hates to fight then DON'T READ THE COMMENT SECTIONS.

Peapole has the right to speak wheater it's good or bad about the videos

If you never discover it, let me inform you the purpose of arguments it's to share ideas and get to an agreement

Sorry for my English

[Upinthedownhole]

@MissPurpleMoon1 Putting people down really helps alot. It put's people into perspective, it's criticism they can learn from, it prevents a lot of people from becoming self righteous assholes.

And don't try to silence people's opinion because it's different than yours, grow up!

[lambovsatan225]

@MissPurpleMoon1 YEAH! you said it, bitch! >:0

teach that troll to stay under his bridge =p

[discobassgroove]

i think he is attractive because his music is so good.

[Singing4Guitar]

its the kind of music that seems really simple to to do, but it isn't

peace

[brennanloltehlol]

actually id like to say that i thought his music was sooo hard but when i started playing a few of them i noticed "this is easy" ... but then i moved onto Led Zeppelin haha

[cogaddis]

Music isn't a system or game to be mastered. It's the emotion and heart of the music, the empty spaces singing silent cords in the brain that matter

[brennanloltehlol]

no it's a hobby that asks for the best of you until your ready to actually speak through your guitar, so i think you misinterpreted what i meant i said i found his music complex but realy all it is is nice and sweet melodies

id suggest you would work on your response next time you want to sound all spiritual ;)

[jkaiser07]

Hahaha, isnt that the truth. However i also found your first statement slightly douchie'... :)

[ukettly]

@brennanloltehlol lol love it!

[brennanloltehlol]

may i ask what you love? lol

[ukettly]

@brennanloltehlol the him wanting to sound all spiritual part, and i agreee with you

[SeanSeanSeanCanada]

@cogaddis i love you for saying that, so many people dont understand that, and listen to music with no emotion in it just because its whats popular and on the radio

[lovechild98]

youre my new hero

[morralo]

love his style

[peterpanmannnn]

After watching many of his videos and reading the comments.. I'm beginning to think this guy wouldn't be anywhere close to as popular as he is if he wasn't attractive.

I'm not saying I don't like his music, I do, why else would I be watching all his videos (I'm not a girl, or homosexual.) Though I'm just saying.. that's where it seems like a lot of his fan base is.

[skyward360]

The thing is though, I don't find him the least bit attractive. I just like his music. I'm a very recent fan though.

[AshleeMae0]

music aint about being attractive, its the sound that counts.

[ebolart]

true. the same could be said about elvis though.

[NEoNBooMBoxxChicKK]

0:44-0:47 i think he would be a pretty girl!!

i think he is hot. i want to see him with out da beard and short hair

[rubyclaire29]

marc bolan rip off.

[turnbugu]

diggin it. simiilar sound to devotchka kind of. good stuff

[tinaorcheezy]

he's a chic Rasputan. For real google and compare.

[yaz3991]

favorite song, so peacefull!

[fightthesnakes]

Just magicallll

[Flickerfly]

I love it.

[MyNameisRavenCrone]

that would ruin it.

[oxvalentineox]

That's just terrible.

A definite no.

Coldplay, really no.

[RoboDouche]

Haven't you heard? Coldplay aren't COOOOOL man!

[bennude10]

"Send me up owl eyes unwinding Asia and all your little diamonds

All your little diamonds

Everybody that's inside me buries the body that's behind me

The body that's behind me."

[bubblepopper44]

vvvvvv LMFAO

[yaninplacebo]

this guy is beautiful and gorgeous n_n, i love him!!

[Fatmandad]

so what language is this song in? i would like to know the lyrics

[podfun30]

the guitar picking get a bit monotonous in the middle. i think he should check out Nick Drake and find out how not to bore people when playing one guitar

[zebrametal100]

i don't know what to say other than he is beautiful. everything about him.

did you know his name was chosen by an Indian spiritual teacher? :)

[MeowPurple]

wow really were did u find that info? nifty

thanx.

[zebrametal100]

lol...a biography of him somewhere on the internet.

and no problemmmm

[hollywoodartchick]

Do you know who his master is? I would love to know.

[nezahualcoyotl85]

the name devendra is indian in origin

so it makes sence.

nice song its diffrent

[tamroluluromtakankav]

@MeowPurple you can find it on Wikipedia.) very good song !

[dalehastoes]

yeah,

but whats even more awsome is his middle name "obi" was taken from star wars!

[Colargoletta]

Oui.

Peace and Love.

[lolface524]

modern day hippie...awesome

[hellomimi25]

haha so true:)

i love him<3

[illalarasati]

He is so hottttttttt

[JakesToons]

girls think this guys hot?? he makes good music and everything... but he could use a shave and not wear makeup :S

[illalarasati]

lol :)

[majicodemejico]

like men that go around apologizing for being just men, women have also been senselessly lied to by the media, and their view of life greatly distorted, they believe a guy that puts makeup on and plays guitar is sexier than one that doesn't. Don't get me wrong, making music is amazing, and I wish I could do it myself, but the fact that playing guitar, or wearing makeup, or being "random" etc. can get you laid is so very ridiculous.

[mahcuz]

Jealousy, Jake, is a stinky cologne.

[JakesToons]

lol i wouldnt trade my body for his in a million years.. but jeeze i was just sayin...

[DropItDoeEyes]

if this man approached me, with the slightest suggestion of a sexual encounter, i'd be nude faster than you can say riddhup.

[DropItDoeEyes]

hence the female genitals.

[zackamundo22]

ahah

[sandutsa]

lmao your hallarious! he does have some kinda....sexual mystique about him though, i know what you mean

[MyNameisRavenCrone]

agreed.

[MistaKwayzee]

@DropItDoeEyes hes fuckin creepy

[pattothemaxx]

@DropItDoeEyes slut

[PianoManSteve]

@pattothemaxx The truest trueness ever spoken.

[Jonisapsuedonym]

@DropItDoeEyes Are you from Pennsylvania?

[shuddupemily]

i cant stop listening to this. this is my favorite of his.

[sarahandcamy]

beautifull

[gracelizabeth09]

Devendra and this song are gorgeous.

[lynric7]

whatever makes u happy and then they will dance without u

[satin6666]

uuuhhhhhhhhuuhhhuyhhfffffffff

[satin6666]

salisbury... how can u not fall in love with this melody?either way... don't u have anything better to do besides think of ways to criticize things outside your own interests hope u feel better

[isetthingsonfire]

Oh shut up. I think the real question is how you managed to waste five minutes of your life on a two minute song.

[FierceSwitters]

He was right.

Great comeback....

I'm still laughing...

Clever, witty shit.

[seanam132004]

he just had to listen to it twice, that's why it's so bad? :) jk i love devendra

[11wee11wee11]

salisbury:

did you write that by ure own???

it most be hard for just one person to be such an a"(·&$)··/e

[jaydock1]

Sigh. Such hate, man. Let it be what it is. No reason to bring it down.

[porpendeja]

thank you, now i know where to go live.

[piyarotter]

this song is gorgeous.

[plopnod]
