Willy Mason - Save Myself

[stormquake]

Willy Mason performed live at my school today.

It was pretty cool.

[thejeeean]

this song literally changes my mood and makes me feel so much more optimistic about life

[IIISkoalMint]

Its funny how big an island kids gotten...Tri Townnn

[boyisclever]

saw him tonight at a local acoustic open night! Stood right next to him all night without even realising! awesome!

[simiansolarshow]

Thankyou for making me save Myself, simiansolarshow, please help yourself, would Appreciate the Input Brother, Peace, Love &Kaos, AnimalX

[ffredjones]

What a tune! Love the guitar part too!

[Y2UBEK]

Great song again from Willie Mason, it's like listening to the The Strokes without the searing guitars and attitude. How come nobody has put up a good copy of Oxygen though?

[JRDunassigned]

@Y2UBEK google videos has one bruhbruh

[PhaseOneSkeith]

@Y2UBEK if you want one, i could upload it for you or send you the mp3?

[2wdr5]

what I posted need to read from bottom to top

[2wdr5]

I feel now it has lost something as does all music as soon as some fool in a suit gets hold of it.

[2wdr5]

I just feel this music is bland in comparison I hear no real emotion in this song like there are in others. And Evievans don't call people an idiot just because there opinion differs from yours its just rather a pathetic and childish way to go about such a simple disarrangement and ultimately pointless....any way willy mason is epic I just felt the music meant more when he recorded it in there front living room with his brother.

[IIISkoalMint]

@2wdr5 lol I used to live on the same road and go to their house back in the day..its weird to see how far he's gone with his music

[2wdr5]

ok people this is not willy masons first professional music video there used to be one for the song oxygen which in my opinion is one of his best and most original pieces of work which has a video of willy trekking across America and I feel the symbolism in that is far greater.

[bummermachine]

willy has far from sold himself out. just because he has a music video that is professionally done doesn't mean he's "whored out to a major record label"

[bummermachine]

he has far from sold himself out. just because he's made a professional music doesn't mean anything.

[Mr3gg]

Auch. *agrees with 2wdr5*

[2wdr5]

oh dear mr mason, what have you done :( far to over produced. i mean really man what happened :( you have no idea how it hurts me to see you whore yourself out to a major record label. where the HEART!!!!! I HEAR NOTHING BUT WORDS THAT RHYME i hear no meaning no thought or feeling......

[lucy71573]

STFU

[havfunonline]

@2wdr5 This song is about when it looked for a while like his family was going to lose their house. Get live @ Austin City Limits. Sounds like thought and meaning to me. Every one was telling him to "get out and save yourself", and he felt like he'd been abandoned by his country "When they build up statues but neglect their seed" "We still are searching for liberty". Let me get this straight. You don't want him to be successful, as soon as he is, he's "whored himself out to a major label?!"

[evievans]

@2wdr5 you are simply an idiot. This song is so well written, you can't see that because he is wearing a dapper white suit and using symbolism in the video, listen to him sing it live as well and feel the emotion; but you won't because you're emotionless or ignorant

[thefeeps]

...deep water scares the crap out of me!

[woody1445]

anyone know the tabs or chords for this?

[roo223780]

Yes if you can't play it by ear give up now!

[woody1445]

sorry i only take advice from cunts when they at least upload a video or i know they have any sort of musical knowledge counts you out then eh?

[misssexyKaty84]

f@@k u "benderlicous21" u are amazin willy love it xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx­xxxxxxxxx

[Benderlicous21]

Just because I merely mentioned his extrardinary perspiration does not make me a hater, you common oike. I am a loving fan of Willy Mason.

Sincerely,

Benderlicous21.

[Benderlicous21]

willy mason sweats loads!

[cinemaniac86]

Damn, you just don't expect that voice from him. Love it!

[larapoka]

i really love this guy ^^

he's so awesome ^^

[Eoinposse]

I agree with you, acidpeterpan.

[Elcukuyo]

Listen to the lyrics man....The masons are coming...buy a gun

[iheartbillywilder]

I'm always astounded by how much my musical taste changes in such a short amount of time. For example, I loved this guy just a year ago, and now I cannot stand the sound of his voice! Ha. I'm astounded.

[GrimReaper192]

i've been in such a bad mood today, but this song has just made me feel so much better.

[PoshFiusk]

onde eh q dah pra baiar essa musica??

[BipolarNerd]

this guy looks like he would kill him self

[gungodill]

[egillies2]

[mudhoney333]

Willy Mason- A true artist, fucking too rare these days!!!!!!!!!!

[imamacyoureapc]

The 'save myself' sounds like the lead singer out of Super Furry Animals. I like this song.

[cakey9]

omfg i love his art of music brill keep it up m8;)

[amandaleamb]

This guy deserves so much more praise than he's getting right now.

God, I hope you go far, Willy!

[Grumm669]

he is geting it.. tho underground, he is loved. its nice not to be cool sometimes you know..still cash to be made. be good

[coche111]

Slow and steady, slow and steady!!

[ihaveashed]

WHERE CAN I DOWNLOAD THIS? i love this song

[ihaveashed]

Aww i love this song! been looking for it everywhere then i finally remembered his name!

His voice is so relaxing, xx

[BeefNugets]

brace urself guys....we're in the presence of a GOD

[bluel0tus]

aaaahhh!!! willy mason!!! you gotta make it!!!

[Planetsp00n]

i gotta save myself! XD

[daliwndrland]

I hate to say it 'cause I don't think Willy would appreciate this comment, but he's really hot in this video. He's also an amazing musician but something about the water running all over him...Not gonna lie, pretty sexy!

[SavageMk2]

This is great! I can't believe I have never heard of him..Where is he from?

[jscmv58]

Hes from Martha's Vineyard son...representing the island 'n shit...Way to rep our homland Will

[manny1293]

what a great song and very cool and unique video. great job willy!

[ALECKSTRO]

wata tune just chills ye out..luv it

[jscmv58]

I can't believe that when I went to highschool on the island with this kid I used to think he was a pussy. Way to represent Martha's Vineyard Will. Go get 'um (PS. that song riptide kicks ass).

[umba888]

I think he didnt change much since then, he is probably the same sensitive guy that he was then in highschool.

But for you sensitive means being pussy , u cant reach height enough to do not judge other but just take them as they are.

[quangoquango]

Jimmy B - Sunday Television (Rough solo mix)

Search for it on YouTube. It's got the same vibe as Willy N.

Excellent!

[PoTeister]

absolute legend of a tune

makes you want to get wet!

i hope willys new tunes are like this

x

[jacobcox3]

Are you involved with those Scientologists Willy????

[Markylawrence]

baby wont you come

[MrsPeteDoherty]

Love this song, can listen to it over and over!

[McEIroy]

great song, great and thoughtful lyrics. hes got a unigue voice.

[nattt23]

Great song! The drums hinting at the start kicks ass! DUN DUN! If this song was sung by a different, bigger name, it'd be a classic! Seriously good song!

[Rigerdaby]

my thoughts Exactly!

[harlz1st]

I LOVE WILLY!!!!!!!

[djfakt]

Dope...

[muse416]

I know Willy he is the sweetest guy you will ever meet!

[ladylaurz]

no wait yay for willy..with a y

[ladylaurz]

yay for willie

[skydogda]

I don't know though...something about his voice kindof annoys me.

[4rsenal4life]

i love him, his songs actually have some sentimental vale, unlike most of the bollocks thats played on the tv

[wintersengland]

great song. lost mmy copy of the cd, have grab another.

[Dantescream]

This guy is the superman of folk music

He is a treasure to this world

If only more people knew of his work... D:

[animeilove08]

I like this song

I don't know why

It's so... urghhhhhhhh :D

[ilovethefaces]

i saw him in glasgow in oran mor about 4 months ago, had only heard a couple of his songs at the time. but he just blew me away, he has an amazing voice

x

[Blade686]

Great song.

[Androgenicus]

Gosh - he is so beautiful :) .

[tomathyloverblerogue]

awe :) i think your in love :)

can't blame you hes pretty gosh darn good

[witchanger]

g8 g8 song is he yong??

[1992naomi2008]

1984

[cherry2rock]

i must be honest, at first, when i saw the video, before he started to sing i thought it was going to be some random stupid song... maaaaan, but now it's so stuck in my head, and I totally totally love it!

i reall y love this kind of songs.. which really express something.. and the raw voice had me from "hello", so to speak... <3

[dripface]

he has seriouse sweat issues i meen he is drowning in it

[cherry2rock]

i think this is the best compliment the director can get... means that he had clearly made his point,only that it's just that is a lil' bit deeper than that, i think it's not a.. random sweat :))))

[dripface]

yh totally

its like hes really in to it

lol

also it is a bit deeper because he is drowning!

[paudibhoy1991]

k hes quite obviously joking wud ppl wise up n stop correcting every smart comment made on youtube

[LITTLExMAGGOT]

Great song, I love it <333

[lukepierce222]

exactly yer

[pomplefuck]

i love being pretencious

[Chronobeanz]

great!!

[lukepierce222]

his videos need to be more gruff like his voice and lyrics. the video is too clean etc, anyone know what i mean?

[syrett76]

What do you mean? More Gruff? What do you want to see - him paying for a hooker? I thought it was a decent enough vid, and encapsulates alot of the lyrics in the song

[lukepierce222]

naa just like not as clean and white, maybe out in the country or somethin, i dunno i just think there is something wrong with it here.

[SteveBreeney]

I mean i see what you are saying... Though his voice is gruff, I believe that his music is more soft... Either way he is a great artist... Hey he is Willy, in my book he can do as he pleases...

[zurAvPL]

he has a beautiful voice.his voice is nice for ears

[SophiesGarden]

this guy is such a great song writer! one of my fave wm songs

[cecco4]

this guy is really talented. hope he will have success..

[0justanotherbrick0]

love this tune!!!i went to see him at glastonbury he was wicked,shud of been on longer tho

[RatonTrucha]

Nice lyrics. Crap video.

[Knox1013]

I don't think it's necessarily crap - I actually like the sparseness and the way it seems quite simple, but fits with the song.

[rimbaud59]

Incredible , i love the profound lyrics too!

[afieldy]

Your a willy whore, and you deserve to die ... cunt

[rimbaud59]

BAN THIS USER! He is a member of the anti willy mason society. He watches transformers, and makes out listening to britney spears. And basically, he's a right wanker.

[yorkietalkie]

i love willy! (mason)

got his 1st album after hearing oxygen a couple of years ago and ive admired his music ever since

[SandyBreeches]

The lyrics are just...so beautiful and true.

[racing11119]

i like ze song""!"""

[uncwchem22]

This is such a beautiful song, really like the video

[Candywarholl]

he's got such lovely voice

i stayed a week in a renovated manner and he is all we listened too because someone had left his cd in the player

no complaints

[unicornswithaids]

Me and my friend went to see him live,brilliant gig but he was sooo pissed and he just sorta wandered off stage half way through then came back with a tie around his head Rambo-style. Didn't affect his voice though,still sounded amazing. His lyrics hit the point perfectly.

[Bummop]

sounds like an old man

[drihana92]

i first heard this song when i was in travel in uk. at first it sounds quiet and patethic but now i love it !

[KJamson13]

LOVE THIS SONG SOOO MUCH!

[yamistar10]

lol he is so cute but he sings like an old man

[RichwooduserRed]

this vid makes me think of the line in his song: we can be strong.

He sings about a sterile place

[heather90901]

the viedo isn't very willy. but could he be any more attractive? x

[poochyt]

ABSOLOUTLY AMAZING.

[mvcommunityradio]

willy was kind enough to allow us to include "pick-up truck" (new beautiful song) on a compilation CD of local Martha's Vineyard musicians to raise money for a new community radio station here. It's a recording of his live performance on 4/20/07. To order a CD ($15.99 plus shipping), send a msg to maria AT wvvy DOT org or check our myspace at myspace dot com slash wvvy

[CrazyBikiniGirl92]

he is amazing, along with amazing songs that really get to your heart and make you think.

[hpcccc4]

The man's a genius got both albums and i cant beleive he's only 23, absolutely amzing talent.

[gilesio22]

such a mint song

[roverspaul]

Just went watching him in Liverpool (the real Liverpool in England). It was fantastic and Elvis Perkins was brilliant too!

[bananagurl01]

this. is. the. love.

[altshineva]

..the nowdays version of John Lennon's Imagine.  Love Willy Mason

[lfc22]

he sounds like a 40 year old alchiholic who wants to die

[lightning0iris]

amen brother.

[AryBerry85]

Go Martha Vineyarders!

[yerkiddinright]

this man is so attractive. i really can't get over it, or explain it.

[smada123]

yer kiddin right!?

[arthurstanley1]

all his lyrics hav such meaning and he's only 20 isnt he?.....fantastic.

[bananagurl01]

I saw him live last night and he was every bit as good on here:)

[Padraig18]

When the vultures copyright the word 'free'.....Great line!

[wscrazy]

Willy Mason kicks ass his new album is just as good as "where the humans eat"

[tomdisbury]

Why is it when an artist does well and gets some mainstream recognition that people start badmouthing them for getting too commercial! If you like a song or an artist there is to it, fuck what anyone else thinks!

[Revolutionise]

I can't guarantee this, but like other artists William has a change of getting up his own ass.

[Modpimp]

For Cool T-Shirts, Vests & Hoodies click on my name and you can find the address on my page, alternatively click on any of my vids and you'll find it there too.

[Blackrose967]

i luv u willy mason!!

[Revolutionise]

Wasn't really Willy's choice on the video, unlike his other's this was real big shot recorded in LA.

IMO, this song is getting too commercial. Songs like "Rnd of The Race" and "We Can Be Strong" are spot on.

49 days until shepherds bush!

[clous87]

i want that acoustic...any idea what it is?

[cliff27]

it's cort

[01smi89]

its a cort but i cant find a white 1

[ronannestor]

brilliant song from a brilliant album, but not so sure the video goes too well with it..

[ElliottVecchia]

yeahhh willy

[CairyFakes]

he has silly hair

but i dont care =]

'mazin song

willy aint got it wrong =]

[justaLil]

i love his voice

[u01wkt3]

Willy mason, I wish I was him!

[BLINDNOOB]

one of those songs that you listen to over and over and over till you get sick of it..

x

[rhcpimrock]

where can i get the chords for this?

[justanotherother]

I'm addicted. I simply can't stop listening.

[onestephill]

Amazing! Anyone know where I can find guitar tabs/chords for this?

[danddgroc]

I heard this guy on The World Cafe today, he was introduced as the guy Conor Oberst found!

[rainbowtoesocks]

Willy Mason = legend.

the vieo is okay...

he looks amazing as usual =]

[Raconteur]

I don't like the video. But this man is a legend.
