Devendra Banhart - This Beard Is For Siobhan

[fearrock1]

cant hear anything

[charlietango48]

the hell is wrong with this vid?

[sonicyouthinphants]

@charlietango48 nosé, antes se escuchaba bién

[nick4man3]

The best part of this song is when he says " ".

He's so insightful.

[frankensteinmoneymac]

Wow...silencey.

[voodoochild954]

i think as a fucking community we need to organize and bring back the audio to this magnificent performance. i haven't been able to listen to it in months and i fear i never will ever again. please re-upload this video

[lelfepsilocybee]

pourquoi n'y a-t-il pas de son?

[CarusoV3i]

if you get the video but no sound then at the end of the URL add this " &fmt=18 " and it will work fine.

[sourC0W]

@CarusoV3i Adding that didn't work for me.

[atikkanen0912]

@CarusoV3i LIAR.

[mrcordoza]

Can't hear it anymore, I just get staticy blips. This was working a few weeks ago. What the hell happened?

[scottislegend]

@mrcordoza I'm getting the same thing, video works, sound doesnt

[katgoeschirp]

@scottislegend same. I'm upset. I really love this performance of the song.

[CarusoV3i]

@mrcordoza at the end of the URL add this " &fmt=18 " and it will work fine.

[canadainchelsea]

Yes? YES!

[nathanbutcher1]

trying to be the modern Donovan ?? interesting stuff to say the lest.

[zoegoldman]

oh Devendra.

[jbails007]

This guy is on drugs. I want what he's on.

[nirvalium999]

great musicmannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn­nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

[keila2058]

no hay palabras.........

[ricardolacerdasongs]

he likes so much of Caetano Veloso most than any brazilian musician could like of Caetano...That's it!!!

[erule92]

Shut up... this music is good... but so damn trendy...

They always have to dress the part, some way or another, make it a scene...

screw all that.

[canadainchelsea]

What album is this off? I only listened to the newest album.

[N1ckSc0tt]

siobhan duffy? gira's wife?

[jcarrig]

devendra banhart is pretty quirky but it's a bit insulting when they laugh

[abeamt]

@jcarrig Eh, I disagree. When he says things like, "In my behind," or, "I can take my little teeth out and show them a real good time," he's expecting people to laugh. I'm a big fan of his music, and his humour, which it definitely is, is the defining factor of his music.

[MyBeardisGood]

I wish he didn't do that weird quavering thing with his voice... It ruins the song for me

[EveryThirdWord]

@MyBeardisGood lovelove love love love the quiver. i do so much.

[MarcvanZee]

fuck the sixties! this is the future. we don't need drugs, we have youtube

[aliiiiiiiohhhhhhh]

why dont you all go and listen to nickelback or something and stop ruining a perfectly good video with your unnecessary comments.

[amendez7449]

lmao, nickelback!!!! hilarious

[theemusic92]

How the fuck can you feel like your in a time you weren't even born in. This guy is just a pussie ass "yuppie".

[dreadbet]

man..

time has nothing to do with feeling

moron.

[theemusic92]

thats what he just said you fucking fag ahhah look at this guy..a straight up wanna be yippie. this guy makes himself look fucking stupid.

[Cannibalnana]

@theemusic92

dont be such a peen. i dont like him either but dont be such a peen.

[jeepstir69]

The vibrato in his voice reminds me of Marc Bolan of TREX (bang a gong). Very cool

[clickswitchh]

You pretentious asshole ... !! songs no good either

[nililit]

watch it

[klaritavital]

I´m from Brazil, and I don´t know him, but he likes something indefinble, weird...

I did not find... he is serious or clown ?

[MarsVoltaKA]

No he's serious.. He just likes to joke around a lot haha

[clickswitchh]

Hes a clown who copycats early tyranosaurus rex songs ... its really sad

[zempoalteca]

looks like joe cocker in woodstock

[sewell92]

At Osgilaithan - Your a fool, open your ears :)

[puppysuprise]

the url in the background is very 60's

[Capmcook]

@puppysuprise Haaa! What an idiot that Banhart is!

[barhook]

haha

[OMGYLLAF]

@puppysuprise AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAAAA

[VampireHeart9999]

oh his faces are great haha

[theemusic92]

OMG you are sucha pussie...

[nililit]

what do you know? stupid

[plainview49]

I don't get it.. why post an insulting comment? I hate rap, but that doesn't mean I post dumb comments on every rap video on youtube. If you don't like it, don't listen.

[OriginalJesus]

Definately a Marc Bolan on the vocals here (and in most of his songs)

[robuzy]

this dudes mouth is huge

[dogdirts]

I love this video. Devendra is amazing!

[1marcopolomason4life]

Charley Manson / Devendra, I'm seeing some similarities here!!! they even look alike !!!!! Don't eat the cookies they give out in the lobby.... lol

[smokespice]

mental!

[festrokes]

muy buenoo!

[mackadoo25]

I love him! And it made me happy to see so many other positive comments on here. He really is great. :)

[rocknrollDoll89]

he is sooo awesome....i love that man lol,he does what he wants and doesnt give a shit if you like it or not :D !!! but somehow he has a bunch of fans cuz he's talented!!!!

[TheJwilley]

he is crazy cool

[theemusic92]

No he's not..

[sibby84]

Siobhan is my name!!! That's how I came to find this track!! :)

[ofarevolution441]

it looks like he's having a real good time a good time a real good time good time a good time a real good time good time a good time a real good time good time a good time a real good time.

[biquettesauvage1]

Deliciuosly insane.

[hardcoreness92]

@lloplop your a fagtastic little bitch

[lloplop]

i cant fathom how one would not think this guy is a fagtastic bitch after listing to this trash. and do you have a problem with fags or something? I'm all for the fags and homos! live and let live

[namenslos93]

i watched that video just to get how you pronounce siobhan, but he didn't mention it. Not even once.

[Oceansweetful]

pronounced shi-von  it's a chick's name

[showstopperito]

Ya it's Irish ehnce the -bh , -v sounding !

[maepra]

he makes me want to hug someone

is that strange

[lillyandalex]

hes really good looking.

[FuckingYouth]

se mueve igual que cat power; los mismos gestos.

[mont3818]

I like how imperfect and raw he is. His music is some of the most real music going these days.

[bagbahbag]

He has the most beautiful, elegant hands. I love to watch him play guitar.

[TheSpacifica]

Play guitar?...PLAY GUITAR?!....

[bagbahbag]

I'm sorry, do you have a better word for it?

[littleboyleaf]

reminds me of cat power

[electroxjunkie]

So theatrical. Watching him definitely helps me feel more secure when I perform.

[youngwithoutyouth]

I am strangely attracted to this man.

[lindatomz]

hi!

something knows the model of the acoustic gibson of devendra?¿¿

thanks!!

[4NrAGS]

the least we can do is treat them right when you're being intimate. dudes need to start giving womyn more orgasms. they are designed to enjoy sex much more than males yet the majority of womyn fake orgasms. that's sad. and wrong.

more orgasms!

haha.

[thanks4tuningin]

how lovely

[newandjune]

uuhhhhh...what?

[4NrAGS]

it would be the bomb if this was the 60s! revolution, herb and free love in the air! everybody just tryna have a good time. oh and about the hair, I think a womyn looks sexier with it. besides, fuck what it looks like. you gotta make it work. I mean, just the clitoris alone has more nerve endings than fingertips. in that one little part. womyn aint getting the pleasure they deserve because foos too concerned over dumb shit like hair. comeon man they birth us and go through hell each month.

[ejb72]

I like his music but I don't want to be in the sixties. I like my women shaved. lol

[ethansABUTNUGGET]

yeee natalie portman is probablly pretty gross ;)

[jaydock1]

No way man, natural all the way. I'd do anything to live in the 60's.

[methariel]

father: charles manson

[TheHewitts]

Oh yeah, he defenitely fits the 60's profile, its like the studio version of Charles Manson if he woulda made it in the music industry Lol, good music tho

[CowFarmMan]

the big corporate banner behind him sorta ruins the vibe...

[DisembodiedDavid]

Folk Ftw!

[StewWorldOrder]

was it something I said?

[mentallyunhinged]

one of my favorite banhart songs, awsome thnx for putting it on!!

[StewWorldOrder]

1:15 taking a dump

[MewTheniRun]

this guy is really talented!

=] freely,heard somebody say is my favorite all time =]

[Crimsoncarson]

I love this guy! ^^

Kind of like a hippy Andrew Bird :D (check him out too if you like this guy, he's great aswell)

Insect eyes is still my favorite.

[humpkit]

this is some good weird ass song

[unityemo]

Beautiful song :)

[jaydock1]

Thank god it's only your opinion. In my opinion, he's creating some of the most unique and beautiful music of our time - regardless of when he was born. His music is the most down to Earth (or maybe up in the clouds) stuff to come out of this age.

[growingincubi]

oh, mine too, mine too. :D

[ZebraJones01]

I really want a good tab or chord or some kind of transcription for this song, because it would be simply existential to play/sing this song

[winechild]

A G# C# F# B E A E

play it at parties. you'll get tons of hot tipsy hippies.

or someone might ask you if you know any jack johnson songs, depends on how cool the people at the parties you go to are.

[ZebraJones01]

That's extremely valid to my life actually, hohoho

[02dsouzad]

actually:

Gsharp 7

Csharp minor

Fsharp

B minor

[DeliciousBob]

yes yes we know sometimes its better to simplify bitch

[imprettycrass]

use power chords and bar it

sound way better

plus thats how devendra plays

[kareenstone]

uou that's brilliant! i love this guy! i looove that man hahahha

[thearjunator]

50 fo lyfe.

[ricaurte444]

love him!

[FeralCarrot]

I love this man.

[RaRaLandEQ]

acrimonious with a bitter sweet kernel of truth

[acrimoneyius]

This is hilarious. I thought this was the guy from Forgetting Sarah Marshal for a second. His vibrato sounds like a sheep, which also correlates with the lyrics a little bit (the mention of a mammal)

[willywonka091]

this is insane! what is with all the devendra hate on youtube! never seen anything quite like it! what the fuck? go elsewhere with that, please!

[DeliciousBob]

great musician, what does wealth have to do with anything? listen to his music brotherr

[RWS402]

sure he's rich, people buy his music, boo !!

[blankbrian]

rich with talent

[zwendell29]

Who cares if he is a rich kid...he is still talented

[stickynyki]

i'm sorry, i just don't get what does money has to do with music?

[mckinzilegs]

Devendra is Amazing

Yes

He is good Live

Trust me

[sinluna]

wow, this guy isn't very good. and no!!!Ian Curtis was a great performer, and a great writer, this guy is just plain rubbish.

[stickynyki]

i wouldmarry this guy, lol

...but im also insane ;)

[lkslobo]

but thats good!!

[lkslobo]

he looks like Jack Sparrow

[crisbonnell]

anyone who doesnt like this should buy cripple crow and see that this guy is a genious

[valentinexyz]

.... bad performer 9hertz09 ?? Numb-skull ! , and wet behind the ears... Pray tell , who do you think IS a good performer ??

[foxhoundsix]

DEMASIADO YOPPO RATA!

[p0ppyman]

why is ladymadonna2's comment marked as spam? i agree with her completely.

[9hertz09]

good composer, bad performer

[indyfag]

you wanna see a bad performer, look at antony, look at ian curtis, but there's no denying their talent.

[shanoon]

la zorra!

[chrissiebabe234]

großartig. und das ganze sieht so aus, als ob er NICHT voll von kokain, amphetamin, crack, heroin, alkohol sein muss um 'a real good time' zu haben...und gitarre spielen kann er auch.

[whippersnapper911]

Whatever you want to say about this dude, you can't deny the supply beauty of how he plucks and strums his guitar.

[willlliw]

what did he hold up in the begining?

[jimiskywalker]

Rose Petals

[willlliw]

ha ha oh i thought it was weed or something

[knowbert]

borderline annoying.

[stuffstuff9]

why did you watch?

[eeayt]

este fumao si es un bakan.

[scattypants]

hes obviously been listening to Marc Bolan

[carlo88moe]

hey, kinda a weird thing, i checked ur page after i saw ur reply n i remember that vid of your piercing when i was lookin up piercing videos, theyre pretty hilarious

u gave that dull face, that's common. funniest one a thought was this one where this girl yelp, making me feel uncomfortable, then she tried to play it off like "oh im fine

and trying to be very responsive to questions

, like it didnt phase her

lol....my reply a little too long? crap, oh well

[winechild]

cutest man alive?

[Nay1915]

loool wtf was that???

[emo777monster]

could he be more amazing?

[carlo88moe]

i guess he could shoot lighting from his eyes, or fly

but he's pretty damn good without that stuff

[IgorStaley]

This Is Folk-Rock xDD

nice!!!

[Buffout]

Este tío es un crack

[cchdddy]

cute

[bronenalladin]

This is awesome. Banhart really knows how to put on a great performance

[satanjams]

haha just go form video to video commenting the same thing, buddy

[gaiamusicpa]

hahahahahaha this is such a happy song. there are so many positive vibes coming from this music

[stuffstuff9]

i like all these positive comments

[ommy44]

his dynamics are amazing. and some of the notes he hits are so pure and steady and in tune it make my eyeballs jiggle.

[dillingerescapeo]

Oh, and excellent use of dynamics(volume)!

[dillingerescapeo]

Vocal vibrato is awkward or could take some getting used to, but the train of thought lyrics are endearing.

[teiners1]

I can't believe Natalie Portman is dating him!

[metadidi]

i can't believe devendra is dating natalie portman! jk.. they make a wonderful couple.

he is such a beautiful man :)

and she's a beautiful woman

both seem to be good people.

[VenusOccupant]

I swear he got that zip up in the girls section of JC Penny. Anyone who can pull off wearing a chick zip up is ok in my book.

[starla1960]

Hair raising,eye squinting,blood pressure elevating,GEORGEOUS MAN CHILD!!!!!!!!

[FybsSocoro]

Still , gorgeous

i really a ....

[winechild]

so sexy.

god damn

[ganjagladiator]

i like when he sings in spanish .

[nickfu18]

LIKE YOUR FATHER

[jasiekjp]

HES SO FUCKING GAY

[Guitarlady02]

why do you say that? try to appreciate people. and why does everybody use the word gay as a bad word? whats wrong with being gay? If you don't like him, then why are you watching this video? Devendra is brilliant, unique.. and if you listen carefully to the words he sings, it's just brilliant :) peace&love wished your way.

[sirszal]

jasiekjp is right, fucking hippie crap
