Interview with Devendra Banhart and Joanna Newsom

[iswearnothing]

HAHAHAHA

[skabashas]

This is probably the stupidest thing I've ever seen. Nice try though.

[ricoadventuravideos]

hippies are always looked at as being idiotic the same was true in the sixties with all those cheesey psych movies..the same is true with rasta culture

[BKLOUNGE321]

the interviewer sounds like devendra

[pip9999]

very nice job! :)

congrats!



[Scout191919]

Whenever I try and post a text penis Youtube won't let me!!! It consists of an 8 some = (depending on size) and a D. ~~~~~ for jizz. Try it.

[lawlsimpopular]

Oh my GOD. The Joanna impression was spot on.  Hilarious.

[Uktrayf]

it's so funny you should make that noise because my voice has many times been compared to a pterodactyl...

[voluptamors]

Love how Devendra is totally baked! Amazing interview.

[welland24]

Obviously not them. But then I guess everyone knows that.

[eljagg01]

Together!!! They're my favorite.

[MISFITROBBY138]

wow. he must be high as shit haha.

[unknowntravler]

there is no way hes not on drugs!!!!!!

[JoshuahEk]

I think somebody found some shrooms!

[captaingoatbeard7]

Such an awful parody(if you could call it that)

[limosalimosa]

Rolling of my chair laughing! THANKS! Love her music, really do but her weirdo-yoga-teacher pose is... hmn... well, I hope she grows up, gets rid of all the superstitious nonsense and maybe even become an atheist - now THAT would be my woman -

Gread video!!!

[alexmmckenzie]

this is all so surreal.

[crietenz]

what's the point of this?

your actors are ridiculous

[angharadvanryswyk]

[grapesdoos]

oh my gosh so hilarious.

[OneDrinkForMankind]

this is excellent!

[MelliheadxD]

i love both of them and their music, even so this is hillarious!

[scienquist]

This is frickin hilarious. Thanks for posting this. Oh man such good impressions.  I thought it was actually them for a couple seconds. Ya the girl who plays Joanna is sooo hot, probably cause she looks so much like her. I lost it when they played the song.

[thisnameztaken]

devendra pull down ur dress! lmfao! who is the chick playing newsom? she is hot.

[slugandflea]

il ike it when banhart curls up at the start lol maybe a bit too long though

[akanathan]

Idk....I don't find this funny or well done at all haha sorry.

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

"dear diary, akanathan doesn't think my video is humorous... The End."

:) no sweat. different people have different senses of humor. I don't find Dane Cook funny at ALL. Some people do. No big deal.

As for being well done; I can't really say much... It was on the moment of spur and not a lot of prep. No script. just foolin' around.

Thanks for watching and commenting though! It means alot when someone is honest and NOT a douche.

[akanathan]

Nah Dane Cook isn't very funny haha

I know your doing this out of love for these artist. Just having fun making silly videos. I make plenty of stupid and silly videos.

[Souel18]

this is hilarious i posted it to my myspace profile

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

why thankyou! I'm glad you get a kick out of it!

[CarmenlorettaD]

great.

love their music...but i totally get it.

their interviews...are....good to say the least

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

I agree whole-heartedly. What brilliant people! Listening to Joanna makes me want to hug her and smother her cheeks with kisses. Devendra... ok, the same with him... :)

[lalaura]

uhhh devendra's voice is not like that at all?

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

yeahsowhatbigdealwannafightabo­utit?

I hadn't really heard his interviews before the video...

Sorry

[heyprettyboy88]

the girl imporsonates Newsom so well!!! especially the voice!

[heyprettyboy88]

wow for a moment I thought this was real.. until I clicked on 'more info' on the side.

this is good , yes...

[thisnameztaken]

me too

[Scout191919]

@heyprettyboy88 Me too. XD I was like O_o And like {: { |)>

[SuperModelVogue]

lmaooooooooooooo

[spartaner09]

compliments to all of you three.

[PuniKay]

oh please just read the description and you will get to know that its just a fake interview.

well.. i share your admiration to both artists but i just can't understand why you spend time on making a clip thats only a fake. to me its quite nonsense :P

[DancingWithMyself77]

thats not them!

[raynbow105]

Oh scratch that last comment... just read your description....

I see this was made in good taste...

I can live with that... :)

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

thankyou for your amendment and also thanks for watching! Nice to hear from someone with good tastes.

[raynbow105]

very lame.......... but i only say that cause i love them so much so maybe im biast...... but lame....

they're waaay too talented to be insulted like that....

lame....

[mmmmdani]

"Devendra please pull down your dress" aha! This is funny, but I still love Joanna and Devendra

the interviewer was the best part, great job

[timthanks4]

Is that really Devendra?

[heyprettyboy88]

no...it's a spoof interview with him and Joanna.

[QberryZinc09]

Lame.

[MarsVoltaKA]

AHahah Devendra was crackin me up. "please sit down".

"what are you doing, sit down". ahahah.

What the hell year is this anyway!?

[depolarized]

its fake lolololol

[gluntford]

they're HIGH

[IRONoverture]

you guys are not doing very good impressions.

[bowleggedbear]

hahaha this is so silly. I hope both newsome and devendra see this and smirk like i did :)

[wesh]

this is the single dumbest video i have ever seen.

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

well, at least you can walk away having seen it.

I must say, your videos are quite the jewels on this YouTube crap-crown.

[dumbusernames]

Fake.

[sheepishly21]

Joanna Newsom is a beautiful musician. u ppl need a life.

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

Both of us LOVE Joanna Newsom. Really! Almost every car ride we take together envolves involves singing a Newsom tune with gay abandon!

I consider Joanna to be one of THE greatest poets of our time. And I know some amazing poetry.

None of this emo-

"Darkness, darkness, deep despair. Conformity, darkness, seagull hair..."

We are not slandering Joanna or Devendra, ok?

[muppetnut]

this made me chuckle. I think she's a great poet too, and Devendra is awesome. Your spoof is great, thanks!

[thediskotree]

"devendra, please pull down your dress."

bahaha

[khalithistle]

haha "rhino-cer-ohse"

[silviafarfallina]

idk idk...what animal would you be?

i wanna be a unicorn

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

If you get to be the unicorn, remember to stock up on large blocks of cork! people today get cranky when you wave your alicorn about in one's face.

[silviafarfallina]

oh crap. where can i find those. i wanna be ready.

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

There's a cork factory in County Cork, Ireland... But if that's too far, you could try Centaurs-R-Us. They have wide selection of mythical equine creature supplies! It's a bit pricey but places like Joannes tend to only sell small pieces of cork.

[mrfarla]

Shrooms are awesome

[sanddollarscholar]

holy crap she's so young!!!

[willlliw]

the person who does the JOanna character is amazing..devendra isn't that good

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

thankyou for your brutal honesty. :)

Hadn't seen many Devendra interviews at the time. I was going by his music. :-/

oh well.

[laeremantequilla]

i adore both artists hahaha but come on, this is so funny !

[TheBoyzFromIllinoize]

I thought Devandra was anti-drug.

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

he might be. I've not looked into it, but my vote is that he's just kooki...

[thrills120]

over actor.

[CoreOgg]

"Devandra please sit down..."

"a few questions about your wardrobe today"

haha its so great. unfortunately also it is so so close to real "music journalism"

[SkagMuffin]

hahahaha i totally thought it was them to, and that devandra had eaten an ungodly amount of acid! hahaha

[PandaaaaBearr]

I... hate you?

[Yonderwildandblue]

WOW. We are so awesome.

I can't believe someone mistook me for a drama kid - How flattering. I really fooled him. And here I was thinking I was the worst actress since every female featured in "From Justin to Kelly"...

[ZyklonBFairy]

Hahahahaha!

[myyyko]

HIlarious, well done. "jasper" has great vocal tone for this skit

[mishymog]

fuck i went through this thinking it was actually the two artists.. this is putrid

[jhc123093]

please take this down. this is horrible.

[jamezmach]

don't waste our time

give it a title you weridies can understand, so people who are actually trying to learn about artists dont see it

[wearewinfield]

lame.

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

so is your face

[jcarrig]

rachel whited is hot stuff

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

sure thing

[jeffshelden]

this is a good example of drama/theatre kids who have a webcam and think they have a really good premise doing something that ultimately shows they have a webcam. joanna newsom: good. her mannerisms: quirky. your interpretation aiming at funny: not funny. thank you, drive through.

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

It's not a webcam, douchebag. I don't leave dumb comments on how no one cares that your dog is as stupid as your comments, do I?

That's because you have every right to put whatever crap you want to on your account.

Well so do I.

What makes you think you are important enough to judge people for having fun?

[heysarahbradley]

haha, this is perfect! Their manerisms are so perfect, I love that devendra just rolls around in his chair.

I'm glad you guys cna have a sense of humor about these musicians and their personal quirks

[elysiumseeker]

The teradactil (I don't have a clue how to spell that) made me soil myself. This is absolute genius. I think the uber-talented Joanna and Devendra would think this is hilarious because they don't take themselves too seriously. Don't listen to people who are offended. They have teh sense of humour of a blade of grass.

[sirspammer]

I agree 100%.. i litraly died of laughter with the teradactil (i also cant spell) impression..

Also i think the devendra charictor was perfect...

im going to be showing this to everyone..

Thanks..

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

Thankyou so much Sirspammer and Elysiumseeker for your encouragement. I'm glad you enjoyed it and I am even more glad to see that there are still intelligent people in the world. Thanks for watching!

Cheers

[ommy44]

and yourrrrrrr gay.

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

I'm not, but thanks for playing.

So why would you be offended by this video? This is how they act. we're not making them look bad... We love both Devendra and Joanna.

but people like you feel like everyone is an enemy and if you say something mean about them then you win.

Why? Why are you mad at the world?

[LittleRusalochka]

lol thats pretty funny!

[Bell1970]

What is the purpose of this video? Becouse if your intention was to make it funny, you rather failed.

[tojupiterandback]

i'm so stupid, i thought they were really them! lol the girl's voice is similar to joanna's it's really funny but then i thought , did she get a boob implant?

[ashleeamity]

i want to find it funny, but like i love joanna newsom so much that i feel like you're making fun of her, i don't think its very nice :(

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

Rachel (the girl that played Joanna in this video) is actually one of the biggest fans of Joanna you can find. If you watch some of Joanna Newsom's interviews, you will see that she is really like that.

I hope the video didn't poison your view of Joanna Newsom at all. I think she is darling. One of the greatest poets of this generation. Let alone a greatly talented musician.

[ashleeamity]

i totally agree with you im a crazy fan for sure.

[mosfunky]

i love their music, but is this interview for real?

[Jordarnm]

It's a pisstake. >.>

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

Well stated, Jordarnm. Although I'm not sure some viewers are able to absorb a vocabulary of given calibre and region. A sad fact. One most difficult (if even indeed a feasible plight) to remedy.

[Jordarnm]

...Are you someone from Tadpoles? If not, never mind.

[Jordarnm]

It's pretty funny, by the way!

Especially "I think he might be on an acid trip..." and the way she acts like it's something she's used to.

[GibraldoStrulenheim]

Thankyou for your kind words. They are a rare gift in the realm of my videos.

No, I'm afraid no Tadpoles in my life... not since I lost my tail, my guts uncoiled, and I got out of that old pond...
