  • the mountain goats sound awesome on recordings.

    THEY SOUND GODLY LIVE.

  • THAT BASS NECK LOOKS LOOOONNNG AS FUCK

  • I love them so much

  • @rrch88 if we're getting technical the sun doesn't burn at all because burning implies oxidation. I guess we can assume that the line isn't intended to be super technically accurate.

  • @Dharmapadra Jeez, get a life.

  • Shut the fuck up and enjoy this song

  • Damnit, i can't do the solos because I only have one cymbal. The pains of having a children's drum kit!

  • Comment removed

  • John is my favourite musician of all time, period, but this is a weak Mountain Goats performance, imo.

    He sounds sick, like he is getting over a cold.

    Check out the live version of Nine Black Poppies he did for Spin, its on here.

    Easily the best Darnielle live clip I've seen.

  • @tamirs shhh

  • @tamirs

    I totally agree with you. His voice doesn't sound like it usually does.

  • The lyric "hotter than the sun" might be cooler if it were "harder than the sun".

  • it would be cool to the extent that changing anything would be cool, but it wouldn't make sense at all in the context of the song!

  • The lyric would have the same meaning. "Harder" is just a more expression-ate word, imho. 

    "I will burn harder than the Sun"

  • @MrGameface Yeah, but the sun doesn't burn hard. it burns hot. I know what you're getting at but it's poor use of English. Then again who gives a shit.

  • @rrch88 mmhm, whenever my group does this bit we use "harder"and the crowd seems to react to it. I mean, sure- if you're burning hotter than the sun, you're pretty hot. But if you're burning harder than the sun, well..

  • @rrch88 Harder in this sense would mean with great intensity. Hotter would mean with greater heat. I think harder would have a stronger effect.

  • This is the coolest thing I've ever seen.

  • The only album of The Mountain Goats I don't own, I'm definitely going to get it soon.

  • awesome simply awesome

    great song and album

  • great song!

    great vid

  • Wonderful performance, can't believe he was hesitant to play the song.
