:'(

[paradinieri]

as othere here have written: i keep coming back to this video, i love it. although it's sad that it's not the whole song. any chance you'll complete it one day?

[tommygunfeth]

@paradinieri Thanks, but no unfortunately.. I don't have the same camera equipment anymore.

I might use the song in a different video though :P

Who knows?

[lulucanada1]

I have not looked at this video in a long time - but came back to it today. You always have people asking you how you made the video - over and over! And you always answer them. You must be very patient, and this beautiful quality shows in your art. Laura from Canada

[tommygunfeth]

@lulucanada1 Haha! Thank you for that! I've tried to keep up, but the in last months I've gotten sloppy at it.

[GoonerMark92]

After seeing this video, I looked Tunsberg up on wikipedia and it said it has a population of just 183 people? Really? Looks to have more going on in the video. Cool video btw, nicely done. Love this song.

[tommygunfeth]

@GoonerMark92 Haha, it's 40'000 :)

[GoonerMark92]

@tommygunfeth Ohh right, thanks for clearing that up... this is in Norway then? I just assumed it was the Tunsberg in the States when I searched it on wikipedia.

[TerraFelicia]

@GoonerMark92 That's because you looked up the village in Minnesota. He's referring to the city in Norway. :)

[flowerdew77]

@GoonerMark92 they meant 183,000 i'm sure;) Otherwise it would be just these 2 guys with their families and mates haha...

[dadygee]

this is so good in wish i was there....

[bjansen99]

what is this version from? i only know the album version. i love it.



[ateyoursandwich]

The original version of this song has been one of my favorites of all time for about 10 years -- you've done a wonderful job here of capturing the majesty of the alternate track. This song is about portraying the grand beauty of small things in a simple and honest way, and your (very well done) video does just that. Two good friends walking around town and enjoying each other's presence is the kind of small but unforgettable moment Kozelek is singing about.

[TheDivineHysteria]

this is cool, you guys look really happy and look like you're friends forever. i respect that.

[jackiecrackers]

I love this song so much. I used to listen to this song over and over and over when I was younger.

[paulie975]

Nice video man very well done and the song fits in perfect with it!!!

[fatfrankblack]

Just a beautiful, beautiful film that totally captures the spirit of the song.

[martinhmh7]

Nice video which goes very well with the song. Can you tell me which version of the sing this is please as I cannot find it?

Thanks

[AlexanderGeneralov]

so sad but true... that song sounds like a story 'bout us

[tylerchhatesyou]

I can't find this version of the song anywhere anymore:( help!

[BabySkaatie]

Its so random!

Its amazing!

[schpoingle]

we haven't forgotten how to love ourselves...although sadly our idea of 'self' has shrunken from universe(outside of our what we know) to a small portion of brain desperately trying to grab the spirit in this world.

come check 'rainy day' in video response, it's on the subject.

[masonchumpia]

Which incarnation of Mark Kozelek did this recording? I can’t seem to find it in his discography.

[cogsofrhyme]

@masonchumpia You can find it on the soundtrack of the film Vanilla Sky (2001).

[schpoingle]

@masonchumpia yeah the other version is sweet too on the albums. this one is from the vanilla sky soundtrack. not sure if it was rerecorded for that specifically or what. but its basically a whole new track!

peace

[PilotG205]

Who are the 11 friendless people who disliked this? Well done making something beautiful out of the mundane, Tommy.

[tommygunfeth]

@PilotG205 Haha! Thank you!

[GodsLonelyMan666]

There's probably no simple answer to this, but how do you get everything looking so "filmic" on that camera? I just got myself an HD Sony camera, but have no idea of how to get the same effect and range of tonal depth. Help!

It's very inspiring and would love to do something similar - I keep coming back to this video as it really transforms something that's fairly dull - walking down a road - into something magical. Great work!

[tommygunfeth]

@GodsLonelyMan666 Hey there, thanks for the nice comment :) The answer is actually pretty simple: "Get a 35mm adapter, the SGblade is a great option). This adapter allows you to use 35mm SLR lenses. With these lenses you can have a much more shallow depth of field (DOF) than with a normal video camera....

OR...

I would maybe reconsider the HD sony camera purchase, sell it and then buy a Canon EOS 550D DSLR camera.. Which is way more cheaper than a 35mm adapter... Your pick :P

[commakozzi1]

@tommygunfeth the answer is even more simple.... slo mo....

[tommygunfeth]

@commakozzi1 "Can't tell if you're trolling or just very stupid".... no but seriously... slow motion has got nothing to do with it being filmic.

[jools182]

@tommygunfeth beautiful effects on this vid, looks almost like an 8mm

did you use anything to get the slightly jerky effect like it has a slow frame rate?

also, did you use any filters?

[cliffburton333]

red house painters + slow motion = EPIC

[tommygunfeth]

@cliffburton333 oh yeaah.. it was like I was waiting for that comment! :P Thank you!!

[cogsofrhyme]

I "have forgotten" how many times I've watched this video over the past year - I keep coming back to it. There's just something so indescribable about it, so honest and longing and moving yet so warm and calm - it's still completely sublime. You truly captured this song, it's so beautiful. Thank you.

PS Please finish the entire Red House Painters discography.

[dinamojuan]

it´s on my favorites now, thanks

[jerryrigging]

great post thank you

[order57]

Hi sometimes it's a pure pleasure do drop into your channel and watch videos like this.

[lerna85]

[Peonattack]

Is it you on 0:08?

[tommygunfeth]

@Peonattack yes indubedibly  ;)

[Peonattack]

@tommygunfeth

I like you and your friends too. I think you are cool guys.

[lespaul49]

great quality video! what camera were you using?

[tommygunfeth]

@lespaul49 Thank you :) A Panasonic DVX100 with a SGpro r3 - 35mm adapter.

[123haileylee]

Perfect. Simply, perfect.

[asonjaryg]

This is the most beautiful song I've head in a long long time. Nothing more authentic than to put the word "fuck" in a truly beautiful song. Amazing.....

[asonjaryg]

This is true punk rock.

[tommygunfeth]

@asonjaryg how so?

[asonjaryg]

@tommygunfeth I don't know.... I wasn't being serious. Great song though huh?

[tommygunfeth]

@asonjaryg Hehe, alright :P You know irony or sarcasm over the net is sometimes hard to catch up on :P

[kotyayv]

good song. good video. and i bet good memories.

[tommygunfeth]

@kotyayv indeed!

[cuntsmasher2]

8 people have no soul

[purplp3opletr]

Lovely video :)

[tommygunfeth]

@purplp3opletr Thank you :)

[nkolai]

Great Video! Fantastic song, it's nice to see a fellow norwegian who embraces Red House Painters.

[tommygunfeth]

@nkolai Indeed it's a rare thing to see :P

[fatfrankblack]

it's great that you didn't film 'white sheets' when the lyrics mention it like a lot of youtube vids

[tommygunfeth]

@fatfrankblack haha! Awesome :P

[trailermusicuk]

This really really works, I like it nice one mate.

[tommygunfeth]

@trailermusicuk Thank you!

[Sieltje13]

it thought this was the official video :) but you made it yourself or what? wooooooow that's amazing, i wish i could do that to but i'm not really that talented :') and btw; your friends seem very nice guys to me ;)

[tommygunfeth]

@Sieltje13 Thank you:)

[tommygunfeth]

@Sieltje13 Thank you:) They are indeed very nice guys!

[daiellis]

I love this. What camera did you use? Well done man, it works!

[tommygunfeth]

@daiellis Thanks:) I used a panasonic dvx100a with a 35mm adapter and a canon lens.

[daiellis]

Is this version on an album? I can't find the bloody thing anywhere, only the up tempo version on Songs For A Blue Guitar.

amazing video btw.

[tommygunfeth]

@daiellis I think it's maybe the vanilla sky version. Can't remember.

[Manimammal]

@daiellis - apparently its on the 'Vanilla Sky' movie soundtrack

[lohood]

@daiellis

this version is from/ on the Vanilla Sky soundtrack.

[qgriffosu]

@daiellis If your lookin to download it just gogle youtube to mp3 and take your pick at a site

[Miserableatbest303]

: (

[migrantwing]

As TheSpoovy commented, I also returned to this video and have to post again. I can't even remember whatt I said last time but this song is one of my ALL time favourite songs and this video is remarkable. You have found your calling. You MUST go into video in some way. You have a natural talent. This song and this video walk hand in hand, completely. Inspiring, my friend! Keep it up! ;)

[tommygunfeth]

@migrantwing That's uplifting to hear :) Thanks!

[cammieagle87]

i only have to say WOW! it is an amazing video indeed... you're gifted i wish i could do something like that someday, the way you captured every single, the beauty in the simplicity... congrats man... blessings.

[tommygunfeth]

@cammieagle87 Thank you very much for the kind words!

[Menegoth]

[Malucodemez]

This really is a work of art! Best wishes, friend, you deserve some serious credit! This is one of my favorite videos on YouTube--Kudos!

P.S. You couldn't have chosen a better song for this video!

[onlineoperator]

after songs for a blue guitar..then this...all red house painters songs should be directed by you:)... you put all those images whenever i listen to mark's songs in frames. thanks so much for making these wonderful videos...

[flowerdew77]

this is a band i've just discovered...and the funniest twist is that this video was made in Norway which is the homeland of my fav band Kings of Convenience,and the country I really want to visit one day:) Beautiful song, lovely video guys, i wish i had some norwegian friends:)

[loular1]

Love this Song, The vid is really cool too..makes the song... :)

[TheSpoovy]

I actually had to post again cos this gets better and better. You have a gift for cinematography and direction, bringing out the personalities of your subjects wonderfully, I feel like I know them after only 4mins! Really really great stuff.

[tommygunfeth]

@migrantwing

Thank you!

[MikesOnline]

Does anyone know where I can find this version of the song? I got the album, but it's a faster, acoustic version or something.

[kevin04scotland]

@MikesOnline

This version is from the Vanilla Sky soundtrack. I think he did a special one off version of it for that.

It's a great song, eh? That album is fantastic as well, but it's much better this way, slow and nice..

[tommygunfeth]

@MikesOnline

Yeah I know, but they have this version on Spotify.

[NOSTRIBOX]

great video ;)

[mnbagger]

An excellent song, and the video goes along with it very well, IMO.

[Glammin69]

This song i amazing...check out damien jurado if you like RHP .

[tommygunfeth]

I think I've heard one song.. Damien Jurado and Gathered In Song - Air Show Disaster..

Great song though :D

[Inmatinus]

På något sätt kände jag på mig att det var Sverige dom gick i.

[fnk86]

Så bra, men det var Norge. Hurts, doesn't it?

[Inmatinus]

Norge, sverige, finland, danmark vi är bröder. Samma land med olika regeringar.

[fnk86]

Sant så sant. Cheers mate!
