  • For some reason I don't want to buy the album, cause this is Gold!

    Don't mess with the originals, mate, they're the finish paintings that shouldn't be messed with.

    I'll buy it anyway..;-) (if I come across it here in Canada)

    I keep coming back to this

    such a great song

  • Fabulous job, Kris.

  • Hey guy, you are great! Your song is very good and the lyrics, far better.

  • really nicely sung cool thanks .....

  • I whirl about, I come back. I feel like a tide and this song is the sand. To wax poetic no further, may I humbly say this song answers something in my soul.

  • Nicely done.

  • fantastic!

  • perfect.

  • NO U

  • great song brother. peace

  • Very nice! I believe that I've commented on this video, on this song before. But then, I always forget why I have favorited it, why is it in my favorites? So I watch it again and remember, you.

    "Just know that I'll be by my side, you..."

    Sweet! Very nice!

    Peace,

    Awwa

    \A/

  • haha, cheers Awwa1

    Peace

  • p.s. i dislike how everyone compares this to blackbird....ya, you got the G ,Am fingerstyle climb similarity.,just like another 12hundred songs, "you ripped off extreme, more than words," lol, next, they'll be criticizing how you used the C chord in multiple songs. there are only 12 notes. wtf? plus ive heard songs with words like "the", and "you", before many times, the masses expected more. you haters can go reinvent the wheel and drive off a cliff. GREAT SONG.

  • ahmen, dude!

  • @andrewjon uber pwnge.

  • one of my favorites!

  • LOVE IT

  • Very similar plucking style as blackbird fly by the beatles, i love it. This comment has been said in other videos of yours, but you tuly are the next john lennon my friend. Great Music, great Lyrics! Make an album I will buy it!

  • its called blackbird.. and nothing can compair to the beatles

  • it is fairly similar...

  • how grateful I am you posted this video.

    michael

  • Very nice.

  • Really? Listen, the fact that you've cited a "long rich tradition of existentialis[m]" makes it fairly obvious you don't understand what existentialism is. Tarnish it's good name? From an existential standpoint to criticize something because it tarnishes it's long "rich tradition" is a bawdy non-sequitur. This song...is just that, a song. A good song.

  • Existentialism, huh?

    That's pretty cool. I like this, actually. Even though I do not embrace Existentialism,I am studying it. Thanks for posting this; you're actually really good.

    Don't bother yourself with the other negative comments.

  • This is the 1500th comment on this video. I still love this song.

  • "theworsebadluck" its a song you idiot. its not a message. Its not some secret insult. Its a song. A wonderfully written and sung song. GET A LIFE

  • Wow, this is truly excellent :)

  • Seeing 'existentialist' in the title made me curious & ultimately what brought me to listen to this song, however I was taken aback while listening. So much more than anything I was anticipating - amazing.

    theworsebadluck, *your* nation?

    So as well as being intellectually anorexic, you're delusional? That is like, "so" awsome.

  • My comment is in response to THEWORSEBADLUCK who was totally out of order to be-little Kris and his music !

  • He's not worth your time, anthonydodge. He's slipped back into the shadows and decided that sending me death-threats via YT email is more his styley. It's amusing watching him dig a bigger hole for himself. Peace

  • I really want for vocals to get more work. They have great lyrical quality in low and speaking register, but it weakens "up high."

    Count me in with those people who would buy an album.

  • great song

    ive listened to alot of your songs and i would definately buy an album

    and i love how you put theworsebadluck in his place. that was great

  • badluck,

    There are a variety of sub fields within existentialism, and NONE of them have any correlation whatsoever with the counter culture movement or Communism. Before you go on pigeonholing everyone who doesn't think the way you do, I suggest you pull your head out of the sand and go read up on philosophy. You're clearly not in authority on the subject.

  • well, at least his music contributes to my peace.

    But with all your wisdom, you can't see that,

    Can you?

  • es relajante ,me gusta la guitarra está bien sencilla y un toque bonito

    y la letra ,

    aunque algún retrasao como el que quedó debajo mía diga tantas tonterías por una canción y solo en tres líneas

  • My heart goes out to people with no ? key on their keyboard, forever bound to a world of questions, however ungrammatically sound. You yourself seem to be the consummate philosopher though your vapid prose would seem to let you down. I wonder where you got the tag 'liberal communist' from. Maybe you just liked the sound of the words together, or perhaps they're the biggest words you know. Nihilism is more my thing. Peace

  • I may have nihilistic tendencies but I'm not void enough to want to fist fight some random, however, feel free to post your address, maybe someone else will take you up on your kind offer. I'll let you get back to your meal for one now, I wouldn't want it to get cold... Peace

  • Terminator style? haha....seriously...how old are you? You speak of helping starving people and you say "I care and i will do something do(im sure you meant "to" there) help".....yet you are such a humanitarian that you get on youtube and insult people simply playing music... Despite whether you like it or not...or even whats its about. Please grow up and do something positive for a change...because right now youre trash...but theres time my friend....you can change.

  • >> You must have a lot of hate inside you to have written such needless remarks towards someone who you dont even know ! Does it make you feel like some tough guy writing such bullshit on YouTube ? I'm a big believer in Karma, and I'm certain you're gona get some shit coming your way with your fucking rotten attitude problem ! Get a fucking life ! Why don't you do us all a fucking favour, and go hang yourself. The world doesn't need losers like you bringing it down !

  • ¿Tu sabes que las plabras tienen doble sentido o que se pueden utilizar de forma metáforica ?

  • i started looking at the video for "boy with a coin" & came across yours of "eleanor rigby," thought it was good. so i kept finding more videos by you. long story short, i fell for your music. as much as i'm sure you've heard this, but you have amazing talent. your voice, along w/ the rhythms & chords you propose are so appealing, pleasant, relaxing & moving to hear, as well as the inspiring lyrics. keep it up & i hope one day i'll have the opportunity to buy a cd of yours:o) love it all

  • awesome man. dont know if ive been here b4 but I like it dude keep it goin

  • Incredible ! Everytime I log on to my computer all I play all of zzzzzzzzap's songs ! Truly amazing talent ! People would love to buy this music !

  • "the world is sinking deep inside" - this song spoke deeply to my heart and your voice and performance almost make me cry (almost coz I try not to cry too much these days).

    :D

    I love it

    Sissy

  • @ sk8ingdom

    this song is existentialist both in nature and in content

    the dialogue (between the singer and a woman perhaps? or is it between the singer and himself? if u listen to the lyrics its hard to tell) describes a recurring existentialist theme: facing and enjoying reality for what it is, regardless of wether it fits an idealised view of what should be

    anyway, to be honest who gives a fuck its a supreme piece of writing dont be such a tosser.

  • I'm confused. What this song has to do with existentialism?

  • it was originally based on the book L'Etranger (the outsider or the stranger in English, in which the main character and protaganist of the novel, Meursault, was an existentialist.

    I think.

  • Thank you for all your songs. After hearing a few from links to KokoKaina's page, I finally decided to go over to your channel to hear/watch all you have posted. Very good stuff. And you are just at the beginning of what I know will be a long, productive and successful career.

  • Great. Bit 'Elliott Smith', maybe bit 'Nick Drake', all good. Worth listening to over and over. You are very talented. Get yourself heard!

  • ha ha , you just did hear it...........otherwise you would not have commented, But very good music huh ?

  • Great great great love it love it love it.

    so that you know.

  • Greeeaaaat! So Geil!

  • amazing. just pure amazing.

  • the best original song on youtube!

  • awesome! why your name doesn´t appears???

  • You really are very good...

    Get yourself a record deal man! You can't resign this kind of stuff to youtube!

    Take a look in the phone book, get to know the right people and you could be set.

    Keep it up, and good luck.

  • All this creativity and genius! It fascinates me. Fills me with joy! So soothing and conforting! Thanks!

  • "Just know that I'll be by my side, you..

    The world is sinking deep inside.."

    like the way you added "you", nice touch!

    love this ditty!

  • Great song I listen to it all the time

  • everytime i go on to the front page of youtube and see new songs i click on them to listen to them. about halfway through them i say fuck it and come back to this song.

  • 248,127 I'm still coming back to this song to hear it... Thanks for posting...

  • this is ridiculously good man. too good to only be on youtube...

  • awesome

  • Love those lyrics dude... wow

  • :D another awsome song

  • thanks for sharing!

  • awesome. sounds like blackbird.

  • Brilliant!

    I even love the shortness of it.

  • Great stuff!!!

  • can't stop listening to your stuff!! help!!!

  • prick

  • Wow this is great. Reminds me of Neil Young....

  • Nice! Your voice has an understated, gentle grace to it. Great change from what I have been listening to.

  • love the lyrics!

  • lovely, love your sound!

    For the Love of Sound

  • very easy to listen to! I enjoyed the words..keep up the good work!

  • Great song, but what does it have to do with existentialism?

  • A Ballad, being a narrative song, about an existentialist, a person having full responsibility for creating the meaning of his own life. Maybe the message is life is too insignificant, so the person he is singing to should stop trying to leave a trace and should just make the choice to stay by his side?- thats just my guess. I tried.

  • Just know that I'll be by my side, you..

    The world is sinking deep inside..

    ....or he means that the only thing thats a constant is yourself and you are all you can know...love this, great chords strumming and vocals

  • Very nice!

  • I like it.

  • i've commented before on this song but i keep coming back and listening to it and it keeps blowing me away. great lyrics, nice melody. it's good to songwriting alive and well.

  • sorry, i meant to say it's good to see songwriting alive and well.

  • This one sounds a bit like Nick Drake to me. And that, of course, is a compliment, as he's one of the greatest singer/songwriters ever.

  • it reminds me of blackbird a little bit. which is a huge compliment, by the way. keep us posted on any developments about an album.

  • sounds a lot like mother nature's son by the beatles

  • Oh my god! you remind me so much of Bonnie "prince" Billy/Will Oldham.. Great stuff man :)

  • awesome.

  • i love it! its mellow and relaxing

  • very sweet voice, so mellow!

    a very nice choice of chords.. i would never percieve this as "throwaway" just needs some cleaning... thats all

    My music is a bit different in style but check them out if you have time

  • man , really cool stuff.

  • simon, he played with a capo and he had other strings than a normal guitar, this are the stings of 12 stings guitar , that,s what i think, i am not sure..... but is sounds like

  • Just a standard 6string jonahfalke but yes, played with a capo

  • oh oke. thank you but it sounds onthers, very nice music btw very good.

  • I would expect a truly passionate player to share his music so others may experience the beauty of playing. Oh well, I guess I won't be able to play this. I've tried to watch the video and learn to play from it. But, you've colored it and I THINK there is a capo. *sigh* So difficult.

  • Simonomon2, yes - capo on 2. If I did TAB I would publish but I don't. The chords are F/C, C and then a progression moving up through G, Am, Bb, B, C. Chorus = F, Em, Fm, C/E x2. Hope this helps. Position capo to suit your voice though..Peace

  • Thank you! I'm sorry for appearing to be any kind of violent. I just desire to be able to play this so greatly! Sorry for being hasty. That helped a bunch. Thanks, again. : )

  • superb...

  • very Nick Drake. is he one of your influences?

  • Hi, princeton284, undoubtedly yes! :) Thanks for stopping by. Peace

  • Wow! It is just better and better everytime I listen to it. I love it so much. Thank you so much for sharing your gift. Any info on a MySpace or album yet? I can't wait.

    cindystar99

  • this a really damn good song.

  • Welcome aboard, PoetryofDarkness

    Thanks a lot

  • Hey spooke, I'm one of those people who buy music, and I'd buy his. Growing up, I used to know several unrecorded friends, who I loved, and they ended up selling millions upon millions of songs. Guess we all have our likes and dislikes, and this one should be and will be recorded at some time.

  • Thanks very much, LilliePuttin. I think owing to the response, this'll be the first on the album. Cheers

  • Oh man, this is gorgeous.

  • Thanks, midnightrid3r. Glad you enjoyed. Peace

  • hey nice song man, if you want to come check out some of my originals

    I love it!

  • GREAT!

  • wow sounds very nice. thanks for sharing. you sound good. and beautiful lyrics. did you do the harmony too?

    beatles influence? i like it.

  • your ballad, what a lovely song; existentialism, what a beautiful concept

  • your voice is absolutely beautiful... I love the guitar too and along with powerful lyrics, you are great!!

  • great music and voice!!!keep walking..xaxa

  • Nice. I don't often like this type of slow acoustic music but your vocals are great. Just the first "sinking deep inside" I think your voice broke there. Quite good though. Lyrics rock. Favourited.

  • i've been listening that for more than 3 times at once, proved that it's a good song.

    your vocal is just fine, no need to push up your tone as they mentioned, just keep the fuzzy way it is- a dampy and intimate trace

  • 7 7 7 7 7 7 7

  • Love your song, your voice and your guitar playing!! Thnx for sharing!!

  • In your first world tour, please remember to visit Argentina, a remote country in South Ameriica.

    Pleasure to hear your music,

    deep music

    deep lyrics.

  • nice work

    loved it

  • nice song and video

  • wow, love the guitar part, and you original voice

  • Very nice. i like the lyrics.

  • Shut up, faggot.

  • Loved it, reminds me of John Lennon!

  • Ahhhh. Peace and Love to you, my brother.

    I felt every note very deeply.

    Now I need to find out more about you and your fine music. This is going to be another excellent journey. Everyone should hear this.

  • wow

    howd you get that good of a sound quality?

  • This song is really nice. I enjoyed listening.

  • I think you are the most eloquent individual I have ever met. Peace

  • Perfect reply to that zzzap. With your talent guys like that barely deserve a response. Keep it up friend.

  • YOU SHUT UP!!! Ignorant moron.
