Pete Molinari - I Don't Like The Man I Am

[averoes81]

A great interpretation of the Billy Childish song. Way better than his original with Thee Headcoats, but I still prefer The Singing Loins version. I will be listening to more Molinari now though.

[BarbaryAllen]

Such incredible artistic and talent version of this song, is billy's song but showing another face... with other voice other music, same words but a new face.

[52bluenotes]

It captures the kind of self-hatred that makes you wanna put your head in the oven but att the same it's so beautiful that it makes you wanna keep on living. Absolutely wonderful.

[jam11049]

2 people don't like the men they are. durp.

[stoopidryan8]

shit, derision, blood and pus. what the hell's the matter with us?

[bobreuter1]

billy childish wrote this and did it as a punk song but it's the same song

[stoopidryan8]

@bobreuter1 all childish-affiliated versions are fantastic, but i found this today and was blown away. singing loins and headcoats are awesome, and this one's really something else. this man really does it justice.

[ifellinlovewithadead]

what a horrible graphic for such a lovely song

[maff1985]

not as good as the sining loins but its good

[MrLeejs26]

read about this bloke in a magazine.quite impressed by him reallly.

[rareskateboardvideos]

Hes got a great voice,but this just doesen capture the self hate of the original by Billy childish....this song is supposed to be tortured,turmulous..ugly/beaut­iful...this is just weak..i mean do you really think this guy hates himself??

[ChannelOfQuestions]

My mum is friends with Pete, i remember when i was about twelve, he stayed at my house for about five days :) He really is an awesome guy! From Kallum.

[madmennis]

yes, he is lucy's son.

[Isobellyjellybean]

What a peculiar thing to find! I was looking for this by Thee Headcoats. Pete has a lovely voice and this is so much better than doing a straight cover version. Good stuff.

[realMojo]

Song was written by Billy Childish.

[jocika022]

Pete Molinari is pure genius. We like him in Serbia very much!

[italllies]

such a great feel to this song, I love who its has a little bob dylan influence to it and also its like its a song from the 50's.

lo√e it !!!! = D

[TheTommiesTheBand]

[muvversmank]

I do love a good youtube fight

[Supershooter9]

I think the bottom line is people have a right to express their own opinions without having to suffer a torrent of personal abuse from others. I didn't make a personal attack on Pete Molinari I expressed a subjective and honest view of this song and what else I've heard of his music - I don't think it was malicious and it may or may not be my permanent view. Kramer920 and Muvversmank made personal attacks on me which true I responded with a flippant remark but that's because they got personal.

[Supershooter9]

It's well produced but pretentious as f*** - why doen't this guy just try being himself instead of trying to be Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie or whoever he's trying to be. All of those people had their own voices. No wonder he doesn't like himself.

[kramer920]

why don't supershooter shut the hell up. Pete is not trying to be anyone but himself for your information you ignoramous. Your obviously the one who doesn't like himself very much as you have nothing better to do but slag of raw talent. Get a life you twat.

[Supershooter9]

Listen Adolf Hitler if you can't accept people having a different opinion to you and respect other people's opinions why don't you fuck off to North Korea and see how far you get. I still don't like what he's doing he grew up in the UK and sounds like an American and I find it unsettling trying to take us back to 1964 - makes me shudder.

[peterjblues]

I'm all for going back to 1964. And anything American is virtually automatically better! Roll on Pete

[kramer920]

Thank you at last somebody knows what good music is

[kramer920]

You are so fuckin original you could have done a bit better than Adolf Hitler you brainless prick. And where the fuck did you get North Korea from or are you just trying to pretend to be clever. Sorry it didn't work, it is really obvious you have the intellect the size of a pea,one last thing, i do respect other people's opinions but not when its malicious, So in future keep your opinions to yourself if you don't have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all you freak.

[muvversmank]

you aint gotta clue what your talkin about you cock!!! have you heard dylan lately,sounds like a fuckin tweenie,you should be pleased to hear music like this today instead of the shite thats out there!!!!!!

[Supershooter9]

Another fascist - I don't need someone like you to tell me what I should or shouldn't like. Now piss off and don't message me again.

[kramer920]

touchy touchy

[muvversmank]

isn't he just,i've come to the conclusion that he must be a struggling musician,a shit one at that,he should keep on praying to robbie wialliams and westlife he might get his break through lol

[kramer920]

is this supershooter a prick or what?

[nazfan01]

I agree with baldyholly79,Pete has that fifties sounds with the Bob Dylan twist. This guy Pete is awesome

[carlosalas]

no hay que ser un poeta o expresarse con metaforas para hacer una cancion como esta, una letra tan simple y directa, la excusa perfecta para terminar con alguien, o en realidad no la puedes amar.

[baldyholly79]

Really reminds me of the late Fifties, but with a Dylanesque feel, i fucking love it.

[royalbabbi]

this song is awesome!

[MarkMark8820]

This song is originally by Billy Childish.

Good cover nonetheless

[bosssh]

[capsularsmapsular]

[jmak224]

phenomenal writing

[monicalups]

@jmak224 cover of the headcoats' billy childish

[banzaitrooper]
