Devin Townsend - Soft

[psyoptica]

Definitely became "Ki."

[sciomancy6]

Not only is this a cool song but a good video of pictures of the old days

[homersimps1]

Devin makes ballads that even heteros can listen to.

[evillazlow]

Demo? This sounds better than a Demo. So chilled. I love it

[kylereece1979]

This is amazing- so calm and chilled. It makes me think of the Sun bowing down for the day-the red-orange bleeding into into the horizon making allowance for Dusk to usher in Night. Azures, ceruleans, and washes of aqua paint the skyline like a watercolour. Going to see him in Dublin in three nights time-its gonna be superb. Id love it if he played this.

[helloimbrandon]

Kinda funny that he wrote this long before Ki just made a few changes. Devin is awesome!

[ffgiza]

@helloimbrandon This fact just blew my fucking mind!!! :D

[awkwardpizza]

I couldn't pay attention at first because most of the pictures were making me laugh too much! Great tune though!

[MitchMcMetal]

I haven't stopped listening to this song all day, it's fucking amazing. Well I'm biased I think anything Dev does is amazing but this...this is fucking beautiful

[julianking93]

Holy shit... that's amazing he ended up turning this into Ki... goddamn genius!! XD

[heska100]

@julianking93 use old lyrics in new song...

...be a genius

[Fr34kization]

01:48 FUCK HE SINGS WITH THE ASS O_O FUCKING GENIOUS!

[Seligsuper]

Am I going insane? I'm not hearing anything from Ki at all. This sounds like a roughcut version of Thing Beyond Things with a rocky little part. But these lyrics are only right up to a certain point. Right?

[Seligsuper]

I don't hear Ki... I see that he has put a bunch of lyrics in the description that aren't in the song. Am I just insane?

[Spermwhales93]

@Seligsuper The first few lines or so of the lyrics are exactly the same as some of the lyrics of Ki, also the melody he sings when he sings those lyrics is the same as when he sings them in Ki.

[Seligsuper]

@Spermwhales93 I figured it out. Weird. Devin messes with my mind.

[hogiesanKenobi]

@Seligsuper just dumb

[Seligsuper]

@hogiesanKenobi You're an asshole. I figured it out.

[hogiesanKenobi]

@Seligsuper At least you figured something out for yourself !

[Seligsuper]

@hogiesanKenobi Once again. You're an asshole. I'm not an idiot. You don't even know me.

[darkmaul007]

Great Song

[glui2001]

Funny I have 'Ass-Sordid Demos', but I don't have this tune

[RandomJackOfDoom]

@glui2001 I think it's Ass-Sordid Demos II, but I'm not sure.

[SkeksisBestSongEver]

Great "roughcut" Really has some charm to it if you´re a Deve fan! It has the Deve ala nineties melancholy, not the whole song i´m too obsessed about, the choros! Is top notch!

[standardbearer]

HOLY CRAP!!!

I didn't know Ki started off as an early 90's demo track!

A great song, even this way, but what he did with it on the Ki ajust cannot be topped. :)

[speedingfish]

That picture of SYL with the ping-pong ball eyes makes them look like Meshuggah.

[Cadavaris]

WHOA wasn't expecting the nude devin

[polmo74]

Wtf is the picture at 1:45 ?

[KillMrFist]

@polmo74 don't talk shit

[LordHines420]

@polmo74 lmfao

[lasoogneypubes]

I like this better than Ki. If it were really layered than it would be perfect :)

[Metal1998]

I like this version better than ki

[LicoriceLain]

I definitely prefer the Ki version to this, but this is still magnificent.

[Magyar126]

lol the comic strip ishilarious.

[UnwrittenPaul]

I'll admit. I have downloaded a few songs since I have my own laptop. But I will NEVER download a Devin album or song. The only two I need are arse sordid demos 1 and 2. Come on!!! Man this song is one his best. So serene and beautiful. Amazing singing. I met Devin a couple of months ago. Had a long chat. So down to earth. He is pure music.

[FoolproofnSuckafree]

My top 10 favorite song

[chi854]

more or less devin re did the song and put it on the new album its cool in my opinion the song ki is complete and finished song keep in mind this song was just an idea " a demo" that could be molded and shaped into a final product or song, and so ki is the final version of this song its way better than this version.

[koruptkitty]

these lyrics are used in the song ki o_o

mind = blown

[gaunten]

I have been searching for the lyrics to Ki(the "here's a little riddle..." part)

ever since Ki came out.

thank you :)

[Corrosive1]

Really nice calming song tho ! Dev is the man. lolled hard at 1:46 , the picture is very calming also

[metalburb]

He references a lot of his own works. Like For example the distinctive line "Oh what a feeling! Oh what a feeding!" shows up in both Love? and Notes From Africa.

[StakerSen]

@metalburb He's crazay :D

[theconjob]

Wow, this is quite surreal. Still awesome though!

[seagaur]

freekin genius

[FormerlyMrBean667]

Holy shit they're the Ki lyrics!

No wonder Dev loves Ki then.

[kinnitron]

It's not just the lyrics from Ki he's used here its the same chords in a different key.

he does that kinda thing a lot. Loads of ocean machine referrences on Ziltoid as well.

amazing tho. He is one of the best ever.

[aggbala]

where can i download this song!?

[Scumgrrief]

Dunno... buy Ass-Sordid Demos from HevyDevy store. Only 16USD

[PlanarCollapse2]

@Scumgrrief

Ass-Sordid Demos II, to be exact.

[stratman687]

wow i never noticed this...and i have the freakin album!

[roblin666]

Yeh Surprised me too, was listening to Ki and like ..Ive heared this before?! lol, i hope he remasters these gems one day

[defcore108]

Damn! I haven't listened to this in years... it's the Ki lyrics!
