Levers and Gears

[Archieloverful]

I actually had to favorite this song by you! Your beautiful voice fits perfectly with your beautiful self..

[chrispyguy]

I hope you will continue singing songs to me for the rest of my years....

[catenchilada]

I listen to this song like 20+ times a day.  Not even joking.

[dartman137]

there are promoted videos of games and stupid things that get 5 million veiws and meanwhile great songs like this dont break five thousand like if you stand behind the great unknown people of youtube and want them to make it big

[rawdealist]

brilliant lyrics. love your stuff. now, do you get a lil paranoid with all these people following you around or do you employ a huge security task for to keep them at bay...inquiring minds want to know.

[mrgregoryjkane]

Thanks!

[bugmachine]

Thank you

[DingoPalehorse]

Wow.

[Originalsongsbydoyle]

Sub and friend me and I'll return you the favor so we can see what is going on with each other as we write and upload stuff. Thanks ;-) That is great too. Good feedback is always welcome despite the source.

This is a Beautiful song.Everyone should listen to it.

[Pynkerbella]

I've listened to this song so many times in the months since a friend linked me, and I just can't get enough. It's awesome, totally my second favorite of your videos - nothing beats White Noise.

[NHStebayo]

[hannahvolck]

[katieCHAOSlynne]

I may listen to you every morning :) while i smoke and have a coffee ! Your voice & lyrics are lovely, as well as your guitar playing !

[16dilligaf]

oh lets be together in a white padded room :)

[FourTwenny]

Okay fuck it,. I am going to pay for it. You earned it. Listened to this song every day after work for 3 weeks in a row. I owe. Umm, itunes is not my bag of tea. is there a way i could pay a bit extra for a hard copy of this?

[beatchef]

@FourTwenny Yes, you can buy her CDs on her website, check out the latest video for the address if you haven't already :)

[andy28092809]

This song haunts me.. Is it on an EP or somewhere I can buy it?

[FourTwenny]

17 people mistook the thumbs down button for a speech bubble as they were trying to comment on how much they love this song.

[TheSpiderV]

amazing. :) x

[BrendanTotten]

just learnt this song on guitar :)

[Teagannova]

I love your work. It's really amazing.

However I listened to this recording one too many times and picked up the click noise you make at the end of it. I now make it reflexively when I'm working on something or annoyed. It took me weeks to figure out where I had picked it up from and now I can't stop. Thanks for that. :P

Doesn't make you any less awesome though. You still rock, so please keep doing what you do so well. ^_^

[blackleatherrain]

@Teagannova - I love the 'click' she makes at the end of a few of her videos. It's incredibly charming, and I find it endearing :)

[girls9655]

He might actually learn something - LOL

[purolife413]

Not to shabby.

[0neRoomDisco]

Something about this song is magical... It makes time pass quicker.

[YTMusic1]

A true ORIGINAL. Lauren O'Connell is the next GREAT American singer-songwriter.

[mich13elle]

your beautiful.

[princetg7]

this is awesome!

[hudmond]

Hey you're really talented! I hope someone notices you on here and you make it big, cause you've got the voice for it for sure!

[Auriden]

Sexy. 

[meganmondegreen]

I think you are quite talented and your voice is really wonderful. It is hard learning to be an artist or craft a skill. I hope your musical journey takes you to unexpected places.

[Archieloverful]

Simply the best one of yours. I luv it.... Your a flower ready to bloom and spread your pollen.

[mrinvader]

one of your best vocals!! w00t!

[Endellion20]

[alanjenk1]

[destiniscalling]

[Archieloverful]

Simply love you and your singing!

[jessemartijn]

[Archieloverful]

Pure fox singing the right stuff

[KikiWhoever]

[Ntrako]

[jmoney507]

@Ntrako Yeah, seh said once in a video that she doesnt concentrate on facial expressions when she sings. One of her cute quirks, lol

[Ntrako]

@jmoney507 mm probably;p

[viewitmytube]

It's a gift Lauren, and you've gof if. I love you and your music, la da da da.

[skuffivykroeger]

You just kind of saving me. Thanks

[NATIONxNATION]

Hey! My school band covered your song, which, by the way, is amazing.

[c0smicshape]

I cant think of anything that has ever meant more to me than this song and what it means.

[efd996mk]

Is 1K good for you?

The music is really good....amazing!

Ever forward.......adapt and overcome.............

[wendypoff]

I think you should go to Bonnaroo with Julia Nunes!

[LoVeSuXbitchesIkNoW]

your hair is pretty straightened(:

[Torque1974]

I've got to hand it to you, you've got a way with words kitten (and I don't usually pay attention to lyrics). You've also got a voice that not only grabs attention, but manages to keep it once it's grabbed.

I originally discovered you through your "Oh Death" rendition, but stayed for your original songs.

Consider me a fan.

[TheStevenstatzer]

@Torque1974 very well said i must agree

[masokle]

I'm more of a classic rock, funk, and metal kind of listener, yet I find your music mesmerizing. Thank you for the time, love and commitment you make to creating, performing, capturing and sharing this piece of you with us. I hope you raise the funds you need for your next effort via your pledge drive (see Lauren's latest YouTube post).

[moneyquickeasy]

You are incredible.

[JustTrollingAround]

are you high?

[UncleStumpy]

I love your voice Lauren, so soulful

[mollipop419]

your voice is so nice and unique. I'm so glad you have songs on itunes :)

[theDEADBATTERIESBAND]

Half these comments could be accused of pedophilia.

[Prafeston]

Love the hat!! Can't get enough of your music!

[kaluevue]

I wanna kiss you for some reason?

[000tash000]

i am in LOVE with your music, its amazing, honestly. i can nev er stop listening. i wish i could have your cd but i wouldnt know where to find it or how to buy it!!!!!! im in englandddd

[Rivaleka]

Who the hell is retarded enough to click "unlike"? My god, shes brilliant, and those 18 people are just jealous. ♥

[Mekazas]

I am in love with your style! I have white noise in my head alot. I'll be buying your stuff. Thanks for the beauty and thoughtful talent!

[TheRoge43]

Female Shannon Hoon right here!!!

Please never stop making music.

[ImACuckoo33]

fucking amazing

[trackstud0913]

She has such sincerity in her lyrics. This is one my favorites of hers. Funny thing: I used to daydream about a girl, myself and a room full of blankets, pillows and padded walls when I was a kid. Weird. huh?

[aendorf]

ur pjs consist of a hat? just asking love the song

[xwondercarx]

I love your crooked smile <3

[novareaetem]

In all the many times I've watched this video, how did I not notice the awesome hat?

[girls9655]

Hi,girl,i dont know if you are of this times or anothers,i dont know where give this song,and is all original,but you are a great musician,only that in some moments you looks like a crazy person,excuse me,i can say that you are under presion or anithing,its potsible a traumatic emotions,however you can are a great artist or make a disc,but you need help in some questions of your music,some of them,you need have critic of yourself,another, censure the hard questions in your letters,good loock

[nickatar123]

Your so good, I wish that the whole world knew what talent was. You've got a gift of singing, writing, and playing any instrument you play. You lucky, and beautiful, and every one should know it

[Micaiah77]

@nickatar123 You got that right, ;) Yay Lauren! Hope you keep singing for a long, long time! Best of wishes!

[Proud2playitloud]

This is one of my favorite songs in the world.Thank you so much for being so sincere and exposing your soul to the world. It means so much to me and so many people that hear it.

[michelmake]

Beautifull!

[HearMichela]

[piccololovesrichy]

[lolek113]

amazing voice!

[mommyfaye2kids]

You have some thing old in you witch is great to listen to now adays Thanks for sharing!!

[jack887]

Tori Amos. Patty Smith. Laurie Anderson. Amanda Palmer. Grace Slick. Crystal Bowersox. Lauren OC. Alanis Morrissette. These are some women that (my opinion) have graced this planet with so much unique talent and beauty they can only be goddesses. Makes me glad I can hear.

[illduce333]

@jack887 @jack887 You might also like Callie Moore. She is Shay Carl's sister-in-law.

Check out the song Zen Garden since it won't let me fucking link it for w/e reason.

[videka]

@illduce333 Thank you sooo much for this!

[luiysia]

wow... this is like ten times better than the junk that gets on tv/radio... I love your songs~~~

[DreamersTendToLie]

Her voice makes me smile. :) amazing.

[Hallight]

you wear that hat to bed?

awesome.

[fluxstringer]

Perceptive and persuasive, I love it !

[SuperBettyswollocks]

Ive been listening to some of your stuff and I'm bloody well surpised you havnt at all made an apearance in the u.k charts. Music as wholesome as this would be absorbed by us Brits, and Radio 2 would prop it up in 10 feet of concrete.

You only have to listen to Bob harris's random music lists, would love to hear your stuff on there. Ok not gonna read any of the other coments as they usually develop into WW3 , Anyway have fun and keep on keeping on :)

[mgenso]

You rocks girl!!! Beautiful

[theDEADBATTERIESBAND]

haha, nice hat! it's like a plaid cowboy hat... where'd you get it?

[twisted21bassist]

I like your hat.

[moser392]

I am a US Marine Corpral currently in Iraq. I found this song by accident and can honestly say Im in love. ; ) You are one of the last few true artists left in the world. AND U FRIGGIN ROCK! Thanx for being awsome.

P.S. Once you go Marine, you never go back. ;D

[ZaskinaDragon]

Oop, well if this CD isn't available at the moment I'll just keep my eyes open for your future ones ;)

[ZaskinaDragon]

Definetely will be purchasing this CD soon, by December at latest ^^

[MasterKeith123]

your awesome!  subbededed

[SomeNubName]

@MasterKeith123 Lol. Is that a word? xD

[MasterKeith123]

@SomeNubName no i just got lazy and didnt finish my word :P

[inf0saurus]

I really love how the word `levers' could potentially be mistaken for the word `lovers'.

[mrprayer98]

anyone notice her eyebrow thing at the biginin when ever she dose tht it makes me feel good about meself

[BunnyBUNGALO]

i love your eyes <3

[radi0activity]

this looks just like a building in mountainview at binghamton university. did ya go there?

[laylashawmoore]

youre fuckin hot! you play instruments and you can sing! oh man.. 

[Scarlett4Zanzibar]

Lauren, can you please email me the chords & the lyrics? You are such a fabulous, talented woman. Congratulations on your success! Thanks in advance. ;)

[Scarlett4Zanzibar]

I think you're great, Lauren. I wish you the greatest success.  ;)

[TheJess7119]

Very nice............

[RoflcopterPilot999]

Your eyes...they stare into my soul!

[garlandbob]

@RoflcopterPilot999

Mine too. She's very talented and sexy in a non-sexy way.

[joebonsaipoland]

Would love to see you hook up with Holy Joe Rock and Roll. He's also on YouTube.

[Zvir93]

i think im in love!!!! x)

[CriTiKPredator]

Pretty in Pajamas.

[buuRt0n]

your voice is so fucking amazing :D

[AlterityVideos]

I hope your performing this stuff live. This is too good to stay in a bed room.

[utubin67]

uh guys she doesn't answer questions.. she is a star? I think she's ok.. but sheesh you people like to blow a person's head up too much. she is singing and playing guitar.. it's a gift God has given to billions! She just puts hers up on youtube with millions of others.. still there are millions of others we will never hear but their beautiful voices will also fill the airs.. God is wonderful! Not us.

[DietBroccoli]

@utubin67 : It's not a gift to be given. It's a skill to be honed and respect earned should be given where it's due. Take your fantastical nonsense elsewhere. Maybe you should take note of what is causing the wonder instead of falsely attributing it.

[utubin67]

@DietBroccoli boo sucky comment and this girl annoys me.

[TheForbiddenVoice]

@utubin67 If you say you are a christian, maybe you should pray for guidance. Christians don't put others down. Diet Broccoli's comment was about what she believed, and even if you don't agree with her, you should be gentle. And commenting on a video encouraging someone to use the gift God gave them is not bad, and will not necicarrily give them a big ego. Please, think about what I have said.

[utubin67]

@TheForbiddenVoice excuse me but did you put yourself into some position to judge someone? If so, that's not Christian! I'm a Christian who is a sinner and growing my relationship with Jesus and I am turning myself around to and for Him- It is a process- if you are looking for perfection in a man- there is something seriously wrong with you!

I stated my opinion- if you don't like it.. do you have to comment on it? And try the oldest, weakest trick in the book to use that I'm a 'Christian'?

[UncleStumpy]

@TheForbiddenVoice Christians do put others down, they aren't perfect. They aim not to, but they do.

[clemep]

@DietBroccoli : right on... hit the mark exactly with the pragmatic, humanistic message...at least as far as I'm concerned...

[lee33070]

are u part asain ? ur eyes sorta give it away. ps. ur 101 percent awsome. i play a little guitar, it's so little u can barely see it. heheeh i was playing my guitar on the beach when my G string broke, yah, so they made me put my shorts back on. hahahah it's not copy written, use it if u want.. pss. u have beautiful eyes.. johnny angel

[alika89]

Your music is incredible! And the fact that you used Sweet Nothing Serenade at the end when you were talking topped it all off :-)

[rancidchickenXX]

[javibarr]

[Oaju]

J/w but how long have u been playing guitar?

[farhadahmed07]

"Bye" is not a conclusion. :P Your songs are rediculously awesome btw.

[sordmasterr1]

You are very pretty, have an amaizing voice, and have a talent. Keep up the videos!

[farvision]

You could change the description since it's now available on iTunes on the Sitting In Chairs album ... and I just bought it!

[sunshineandginger]

YOU ARE A TRUE AND RARE TALENT!

[BlueLikeJazz9]

God, I love all of your videos. You're so very talented. :)

[jrhill937]

[A7X1ROLZ]

Normally I'm a metal head but. I can't stop listening to your stuff. Any suggestions for other things that sound similar/you like?

[lylapanda]

You're an excellent musician and songwriter- good job =)

[Messingaround1000]

you truly couldn't look any more irish

[bufordcrabtree]

Just sent you a check and subcribed, I'll pay double for your first album. Instead of a lable just sign it with a black felt tip. Sweety you rock.. er..folk.. er.. whatever!

[makemebadfudge]

[maggotcorps83]

i stumbled apon ur videos today, which is wierd cuz i don't really listen to this type of music, but i couldn't stop listening becuz u have a beautiful voice. what i'm trying to get to :P is this one is my favorite thus far.

[KnightRider09]

Your blue eyes are intoxicating. I take it back=] You do have the looks... 

[MartinLuther444]

@LaurenOC12 Do you ever listen to Joni Mitchell? You remind me of her a little bit. Do you ever do any traditional style songs? I think it would be an excellent addition to your repertoire, although I love your songwriting style and (obviously) all of your songs. Keep it up, from the heart!

[reegator525]

You are amazing!

[HertfordBMX]

You are so beautiful and talented. I love your eyes

[BunnyBUNGALO]

those are some honest eyes. they tell a story in them all alone.

[chrisb18c1]
