[Mackarony5]

booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­bs

[Mackarony5]

[starwarsfreakofknow]

My brother got me hooked on Josh Pyke around 4 years ago. His music has influenced both the way I think, and the way I make decisions. He's been my role-model ever since.

[hayleyevelyn11]

I still make pictures on the pinewood roof. but reminds me of my childhood.

[Axelllllia]

I actually live in a house in the middle of the hill. not the top, not the bottom, but the middle.

[TheDeadlyDelilah]

This is just beautiful - why isn't this Sydney-sider famous?

[MrPotatochops]

he has no chorus but its still a great song

[Aussiethe2nd]

this is soooo fucking gay

[alwaysfeliz]

This is totally my childhood.

[TheGirlDreams]

I just sang along with every word josh sang wow haha i memorised the song ive listened to it so much

[Simonweston333]

- 20 points for emo fringe and 'pretty' animation.

+ A KABILLION points for the song :D

[Beattodeathlikeadog]

Well my opinion is I dig this song. Along with many others.

[missmillybrooke]

everyones got opinions..

its just that the majority of the world has got the right opinion and knows that this song and video is pretty much the only thing that matters in life!

[Sumtinrandom]

Don't really like the video though. It's nice, but just to.. 'easy'.

[autumnnightbreeze]

@Sumtinrandom You clearly don't know a thing about animation, and clearly don't have good taste.

[Sumtinrandom]

@autumnnightbreeze

wow, who killed your mom? Such spunk.

[peaceandlovechick]

such a fun song:)

makes me giggle.

[mateeitstaee233]

this is song is true

[nastyhobbit]

anyone else notice he does the whole song in like 4 breaths?

[ewixsii]

I like this song very well

[KILLerONcrax]

if he ever fails at music,he can def be a rapper!

[MissBeachBabe55]

@KILLerONcrax Thing is- if you've heard he's other stuff. He doesn't fail at music. He's amazing. and very underrated!

[jesuisfaer]

so much innocence in this song. every time I listen to it, it takes me away from this disillusioned adult world.

[BadIntentionsBand]

love it when song writers tell stories

[LittleLaceGloves]

14 people missed the lik- OH SHUT UP!!

[fatman93186]

@LittleLaceGloves what the fuck, you lame ass

[Brookenesss]

@downinmexico1 Ahh. Wasn't it every ones. (: haha. Good times.

[ColdDish1]

his voice is annoying

[speedygonzalez23]

definatly agree

[acecarlo11]

errmmm. what's up with censoring the lyrics? this is youtube, lyrics are allowed to be explicit as far as i know. ..

[bluefreedomtrue]

i love this song! i bothered remebering it all the way back from oz. i ddint pay enough attention to the good things wen i got em then too

[moiz96rae]

This is such a boring song. I can't believe I have to play it!!!

[thisisluke100]

@moiz96rae no one is making you play anything.

[kdybhoy]

It's just a nice little song about a guys childhood n that he didnt realise how much e enjoyed it untill he was older. "i don't pay enough attention to the good things when i got 'em"

[vidmanproductions]

ha love this song lol

[lucydrox]

Awesome song, love it! (:

[LR1409]

I'm so jealous gavinsmith100.. I love his songs, but unfortunately live in the Netherlands...

[TheBatemonster94]

[HappySlave1]

Beautiful and truthful song, art does imitate life

[emwes88]

very ben lee-ish... and ben lee you suck

[lucydrox]

[MFGProductions]

Very worldly in the sense that ever middle income family/household can relate to this. Ima going with bobby529 on pick of the decade.

[bobbym529]

My pick for Song Of The Decade.

[sectumsempralumos]

for 5 years he's been one of my favourite artists. and i'm only 14 :)

[cliffpup]

parents were drunk so they really didn't give a shit

[Tom5578]

A love letter to your family. You nailed it dude.

Jose Gonzalez. Mystic River.

Makes you proud ... to be Australian to hear this.

[ImLoStRuTo]

[briank59]

Forget the hatchling, and the unfledged. Time to renew.

[notoriouslynx]

God, I havent heard this song in three years. Amazing.

[sirfeathersmcgraw]

for me this is *the* sydney song. whenever i'm feeling homesick, this song goes on loop :)

[carliboy908]

love this song, to me it sums up youth...the mystery, the rumours, the darkness and the joy that comes with growing up

[MiniMarcify]

@carliboy908 I just like it because its just better than lady gaga really

[wenraw]

This is a difficult song to sing! It's hard to catch a breath between phrases.

[96marzie]

haha, soo true, I can hardly sing the last bit! (I never paid enough attention to the good things that I got)

[SUCHaRIGG]

this is the best song that he sings nd he is the bews guitar player =]=]

[nikkuz36]

Josh's lyrics really hit home, anyone else agree?

[TomHallMusic]

@nikkuz36 I totally agree - Pyke is a genius picture painter! A great lyricist who marries scansion with melody like no other! And OH those melodies! Gotta love this song and "Lighthouse"!

[tattoodfreeek]

@nikkuz36 you are sooooo right

[111Saya]

@nikkuz36

Exactly so!

[BeuPratten]

@nikkuz36

i would say about 89 people agree

[WowRoOceana]

0:30 - 0:45, Nice.

[sHwAbZy]

[05sykes]

@Verceti1 wtffffffff hahaha, the 'australian spirit' ??!! :|

[Verceti1]

@05sykes yeah whatever, i wrote that like a year ago anyway

[chelbieful]

like:)

[awesam19]

i first heard this song while shopping in Sportgirl one day. i LOVE it. josh pyke is awesome

[connorbonna]

yeah i just learned this song on guitar... its a great song and simple 5 stars :)

[dryreacher]

this song is so freaking great. It takes me back to the good old days... I can just have it on repeat all day. I wish it was longer!

[Hoyle1995]

i cant beleive he made this song when he was 14

[hawtpawkithero]

I gave it 2 stars because this great song is needlessly censored. This is youtube, not Disney Channel.

[FollowThatTempo]

what's wrong with saying the word shit? why is it censored, it's not like eight year olds can't tell that's what he was saying anyways.

[nekopheliac]

I could listen to this 100 times in row.

awesome track

[zac7634]

splendah

[FollowThatTempo]

Love this song.

[iheartlachie]

haha lol

[AnthonyCostaa090]

amazing..

[slittabennett]

i love his work

[mdeliseo]

it's funny you use the word 'work', most of us would..

but you can tell through his music, that this for josh pyke, isn't work.

=D

[maddiexxjune]

josh is amazing live

[zylomix56]

wow! i am uber impressed with this song. one of my top five faves.

[ElChristino101]

I'm trying to memorize this song..its just so great.

[zac7634]

same dude

[musiclover1342]

i love how he sways and dances when he plays =]

he's so great....and australian! i love him =]

[commonprotocol]

also, as a postscript when will america pick up some love.

[thebellafonte]

this song is outstanding.

the video, however, is not.

[GeorgeMellllow]

Alot of the Josh Oyke videos i've seen, official or not, aren't so great. Atleast to me.

lol

[Sherlockette15]

The music video tells a story, remotely. And if your not a fan of the art , the art fits his indie genre of music. I think that its a really good song and music video.

[GeorgeMellllow]

maybe i'm just to narrow minded...

lol

[GeorgeMellllow]

*too

[sunshinysparkle]

Alot of people can relate to this song, its classic Australian surburbia in the 80's. And yeh i love it cos of that reason

[marcusko15]

There's something enchanting about this song. That little town he speaks of seems so tangible. The frightening evil assoiciated with two men in a white van, the fear we feel for a naive child, that comfort of a mothers cool hands providing a real sense of maternity and safety. All these ideas recounted hastily, in a flurry, in a blur, linked to each other without a moments pause...then the song finishes but you want more. I guess i should pay more attention to the good things when i got 'em...

[CharismaticShoelace]

that's kinda random...but good..

but random..

[UnladeHint]

200th comment! lush song

[cuteypie878787878787]

i like this song its cool

[greterses]

His double chin makes me laugh.

[potatospazz]

As does your ignorance, you idiot.

[greterses]

Why am I being ignorant? I find it funny, and not in the cruel way.

[paddlefortheboatless]

that was amazing

[tommy6222]

Have to sing this song at skool in music (I love music) and it's quiet difficult, running out of breath every 20 seconds.... lol. Josh Pyke is great by the way, one of my favorite artist (But this's just spam seems just about everyone else that views this probably say the same thing)

[HandyFridge]

this song is very very addictive, i love it.

[awkwardmax]

most awesome song!

sounds even better live!

[shallwethen]

i dont like how it bleeps out shit...

[HandyFridge]

haha!

[Vote1Jimmy]

Great song :D !

[phavitra]

gayy song aye

[waldoman307]

your gay loser

[phavitra]

wtf how im i a gay loser?

[eferia]

u r a sick music freak!! fucking gay guy!

[cosmosmushroom1]

josh pyke is an amazing artist one of my inspirations in music

[callmegab]

Great Live artist. Ive seen him many times. (and why are people posting such volatile messages on Youtube. Take it easy! Get over yourselves)

[heroecho]

im not a huge fan of his other songs, but this song and its flow is incredible

[toby099]

Not a huge fan of his other stuff, but how can you not like this song?

[pakyum1]

may i ask why people were moshing to Josh Pyke

[ferret12]

Does it matter?

[baden300]

nice.

[omc5436]

the backing is good but the lyrics are pathetic

[Toby11222]

Oh but you could write something better. How about you pull your head in, you no talent hack. Go back to listening to the wiggles fool.

[omc5436]

yeh I could actually Im an acoustic singer mate....I released my first single in december and Iv already sold 1718 copies pal...ummmmmm did someone just get cut!!!!!!

[Toby11222]

Well when JJJ start playing your music you might have some credibility until then your most likely an australian idol wannabe. And if you do happen to get interviewed in the music press, I dare you to repeat your comment about Joshs' lyrics to the reporter. Take your opinion, your 1718 plastic album sales plaque and tell your story walking......pal

[omc5436]

yeh I'll be out making money while u just argue with people online....Iv made $32,926 since the start of december and have been invited to play with Tiesto, at least Im not wasting my life buddy ur probably still in primary school or something...fucking low life

[Toby11222]

Your the deuce bag slagging off Josh Pyke and I'm glad your playing with the likes of Tiesto, because I'll never go to a tiny bop gig with you playing your crap songs. What I do is none of your concern, you should be more concerned that you feel the need to critisize a talented proven artist like Josh when he has sold over 1000000 albums so fuckoff and take your $33000 and buy a life, or get educated you ignorant idol reject.

[commonprotocol]

oooh you got to play with tiesto, yeah i know who tiesto is, and yes I respect tiesto but it doesn't make you anything fucking special. Shows can have like 200 DJ's (down the rabbit hole for instance) being one of them doesn't mean shit as they like to pick up local artists.

[tomatobasilricecakes]
