My Brightest Diamond - Inside a Boy

[UnholierThanTao]

Cool vid

[onetolucas]

every time the song reaches 2"10 i have theese bizarre chills because of the melody/voice. 

[ertwro]

This is interesting...I´m sold.

[JanMarie1007]

This video is off the hook creative and fits perfectly with the song... Bravo!!!

[Tocy777]

what a song, what a video...wow

[chuckfrasher]

OMG how wonderful! I love everything about this!

[shhmellshlikeasshhhh]

Haha I showed this song to my friend after hearing them at the Sufjan concert at Prospect Park and he was blown away (:

I was VERY impressed with her live performance!

[Mappyman]

Patapon!

[SprinklesIgnatius]

She did a free show 2 weeks ago in Chicago with the Chicago Youth Symphony Orchestra, during it, it started pouring rain and thundering. We were huddled under the Pavilion already, the music in front of our faces was breathtaking, and the wind, rain, and thunder behind us was exhilarating; it was one of the most incredible combinations of sound I've ever experienced. If you haven't already SEE HER LIVE - DO IT NOW!

Thank you for such an amazing show, Shara!

[TheRestlesswind1]

A de ja vu share!!! but delightful and favourited.

Thanks AKitty...loved the animation...and love Dragonflies...so beautiful both song, singer, animation and insect!!!

[MakenshiCrona8]

Oh goodness, why is it that every time I listen to this song I cry? Q~Q

[frickmann123]

She opened for Sufjan Stevens at Prospect Park two nights ago, easily one of the strongest female voices I've ever heard.

[HeeCat00]

Noo! It's not creepy, It's ... so beautiful

[kaari1]

Great stuff!!.. Sounds a bit like danish band INOUWEE

[Lorythme]

I can't stop listening to this song ;u;

It's just too beautiful....

[haakonreitard]

i hope Skrillex makes a remix of this song...

[onlyat3am]

@haakonreitard I really hope that doesn't happen.

[BabyGirlGoddess]

@haakonreitard

NOOOOOOO!

[britladd]

incredible voice, incredible song, great music rarely charts anymore but thankfully it's still out there

[toughluck52994]

Is this a fan-made video, or is it legit?

[bmarsh915]

@toughluck52994 can't it be both?

[DuffleMuffins]

@toughluck52994 Legit.

[timothyegandonald]

[DeathJunkE]

This is amazing!

[ScenesFromPalacio]

[PunkSkaterChik00]

@TheHoodToYourHoodie Wtf e3e.

[TheHoodToYourHoodie]

MORAL OF THE STORY: Dragonflies are the most epic beings alive. =w=)b

[kaari1]

really great song!! Check out danish act Inouwee with the song "Liquids playing misty games" if you like this..

[acronov]

people really shouldn't vote up a comment that describes shara worden as a "broad"

[MRGENERATIONADD]

@acronov but what if i love this broad.

[hobbified]

@acronov Why? Afraid of words?

[sorchahome]

CREEPY

[SenoraFabregas]

this song is just mindblowing...i could lose my eyes and get lost in it...

[oyetitutuo]

She is just too good!

[McFly1020]

St. Vincent.

[bernie1111]

@McFly1020 totes

[Skyline10789]

son lux remix is also stunning!

[Avie0x]

@Skyline10789 ahh i cant find that remix!!

[Skyline10789]

@Avie0x i know its not on youtube. i bought it, totally worth it tho, song is bonkers.

[JuKa3177]

@Avie0x same this version suck the remix sound so much better send me a message if you find it

[marlintheelitefan]

I love you shara, but i still enjoy sufies music better

[kiao1208]

@marlintheelitefan amen to that

[ThisCitysInPanic]

Never heard of this chick before but her voice is amazing and she's in town? I do believe I will be venturing down to the CAID to see her play soon.

[abramzombie]

i heard this from Sam Masons dinner with the band

[Kenentigern7]

Amazing voice, the titular pun seems to have zoomed like fat larry,

Close Encounters and girls reversing the Rappunzel myth, eh what  chucklemonkeys???????

[slamt08]

ewww thinking about it

this video is probibly very misleading for pedophiles

[slamt08]

wow gorillaz much?

[IndieMusicFan13]

@slamt08 That's what I thought too. Still love the song, video, and band though.

[popomczowzow]

anyone else noticing the reoccurring dragonfly theme/motif/whatever in her music?

[SufjanStevensWannabe]

@popomczowzow like a visual motif, i.e the dragon fly at the start of the video? Or a melodic or rhythmic motif embedded in the music itself?

[popomczowzow]

@SufjanStevensWannabe

well you couldn't "melodically" put a dragonfly into your music, you could lyrically. What I mean is that I've heard lyrics about dragonflies, and I've seen them in the videos. I wonder what the reason is.

[SufjanStevensWannabe]

@popomczowzow I'm sorry for not making myself clear. In her song, 'Dragonfly', if any rhythmic material or elements of the melody are extracted from the original and played in a different song, that could be considered a recurring motif or theme. I thought you were talking about this.

[popomczowzow]

@SufjanStevensWannabe

oh I understand what you meant now hahaha

I was talking about dragonflies in general

[rtoolio]

interesting but it seems like a complete rip-off of the Gorillaz. Is this girl in Gorillaz or is this the same animator? If only there was some sort of machine I could type my questions into to get answers.

[rekone607]

I love this video... :D

[mutebydesign]

I found out about them through the IFC show, Dinner with the Band<3

[Fredfanish]

@mutebydesign Hey! So did I! :D They rock!

[Browns415]

does anyone know where I can find tabs for this?

[gerbos]

@Browns415 @Browns415 I just read your comment and realized there's no tabs for it, so I just tabbed it and sent it to ultimate guitar, so I can send it to you right now if you want.

In fact, if other people want it before it gets onto ultimate guitar, they can just ask for it.

[darkkittybells]

wow awesome!! i saw her on dinner with the band and she was epic!

[chelseafreshh]

insert shrooms in mouth

[SufjanStevensWannabe]

Only Asthmatic Kitty can make me this joyful when listening to music

[HarlotBug3]

Thanks for posting. I really need to see her live, again.

[maggitPL]

Great video! :)

[SufjanStevensWannabe]

I'm so joyous to find out she was the lead cheerleader in Sufjan's 'Illinoise Makers'. Sigh...what i would do to see them both live.

[cortlyn]

I saw her with Sufjan Stevens and Nicolai Dunger in Philly in 2003 when her name was still "Awry" You should have seen her sing "Brave Elephant" :) She's great!

[saricma]

funambolica....

[JacquelinElizabeth18]

this video makes me sooo happy<3

[TheHeidiGame]

I like this video, not too keen on this sound though.

[Drakoms]

one hell of a song and animation

5/5

[LavaCookies]

i heard her sing on the Decemberist's new album and had to hear more. her voice is fucking amazing

[uzzyo]

same here

[undercoverspy123]

@LavaCookies She sings with jedi mind tricks to

Jedi mind tricks - Razorblade salvation

[blankplanet]

@LavaCookies voice is amazing, music is shit

[darleendarling]

This sounds diffrent from when it was on SYTYCD

[azncoolness8]

cause that was the remix

i personally like that one better but both are really good

[egbertdance]

The one on SYTYCD was remixed by Son Lux. You could probably listen to it by going to hypem and searching "inside a boy son lux."

[azncoolness8]

yeah thats what i was doin lol yeah but i listened to it too much so now i have to get an account ):

[AliceInWonderland901]

great animation!!<3

[tuptupu]

such a beauteous diction!

[aleeDances]

teddy forance taught me an amazing dance to this song <333

[kylegeldmaker]

Saw her last night with the Decemberists. wow, what a set of pipes this broad has. She can totally belt it!!

[erasemeaway]

Dude yes. Lead singer was INCREDIBLE with the Decemberists. Are they seriously still touring "Hazards of Love"? SUCH a good show!!!

[hooplaplooza]

absolutely wonderful!

[KonradGabreil]

Just saw her in concert tonight, it was amazing!

[frankthehelmut]

Yeah, she sent shivers down everyone's spine there.

[notashockingsn]

decemberists at montclair? one of the best concerts i've ever seen, mindblowing.

[frankthehelmut]

Nah, Pygmalion Music Festival at UIUC. Similarly fantastic.

[conorcar]

sick name for a song!

[orriboy]

no it's just your perverted mind

[aidenmaxinacronus]

what an awesome voice she has!!

[itscowski]

shara worden = ♥

[Ginarae]

kind of reminds me of the Gorillaz.

Very nice.

I'll ever get over how amazing Sharas voice is.

Uhh.

[Mepamper]

Wild!! Dig the animation.. Kudos on a job well done all the way around! Love Sarah Worden's voice and lack of fear to 'put it out there' but the animator did a 'just' job here and worth a look with the peepers in my opinion..

[luvleegurl21]

i agree! but i think its shara not sarah jyst to let you know if you wanted to look her up or somthing

[bert0nijs]

Good song!

But doesnt the thing in 2:28 remind anyone of something else? :s

[Georgebucio18]

Excuse me, but whatever did you mean by that? O_o

[bert0nijs]

Well, I mean I think I've encountered one of those creatures before. Why don't you try googling Vajayjay ;) :)

(Yes, my first comment was meant to be funny.)

[ralphwog]

hahahaha nice find ;)

[YellowLake40]

Wow! This video is amazing. Not only is the band amazing, but the animation for this video is outstanding. And its not a typical boy saves the girl kind of video either. The song fits the mood perfectly. And might I add that Shara Worden has possibly the most beautiful voice I've ever heard.

[nicholasgregg]

that video was sweet.

she sang with decemberists on monday in columbus.

omg she was so so soo soooo amazing!!!!!

[iluvpwnies]

beautiful.

[rosierposie]

very clever, i really like this.

[Nopogo537]

awesome music vid! I love this band!!!!!!!

[edders1986]

My Brightest Diamond's singer, Shara Worden, is one of the best female vocalists I've ever heard!

She crops up on The Decemberists' new record (Hazards of Love) and sounds incredible on that as well. Respeck.

This video doesn't do much for the song though..

[kl9kca]

Класс

[shouang]

oh my god, female empowerment HOLLA.

[smerioo]

fantastica

[LilithFilth]

Just saw this clip on rage (in Australia) & I really like what I hear. I hope there's more good stuff to come from this band.

[gothicbuddhism]

so did i... was on a friday night at about quarter past 12 or something

[magus3498]

While cool and artsy, I didn't think that the animation really matched the song very well. While almost-comical and sneeky and barely romantic, none of these things actually match the song its supposed to illustrate. Maybe to "Dragonfly", with the visual cues and hero structure. Maybe my interpretation of IaB as describing a world stopping, romantic, gothic novel-esque relationship, full of infatuation, secrets and maybe even sex (it is called "inside a boy" after all) is just off.

[WickedWays9]

I agree with you completely. While cute, I really had much higher hopes for this video. Oh well. The song is still AMAZING!!!

[magus3498]

Watching it again, I can only notice how the video only serves to distract from the music rather than accompany it. I hope there will be a new one, or a video for the son lux remix of Inside a boy that's more appropriate.

[dunklestein]

muy bueno!!

siguan asi!!

[mySOSbrigade]

its a gem...just stumbled on it...like WOW

[FunkyDiscoFeverCello]

I love this a song, its so awsome!

[Moonlightxshadows]

this is such a cool song! i like the remix better though, my winterguard show is to that song!

[RipRabbitGurl]

Thanks for sharing this geat animation! Thank you very much

[groovyshamrock]

Great song, great vid! I like the reference to "Dragonfly", lol!

[greenplanet2400]

Great animation! I like the song, too!

[dharmabums28]

Soberbo.
