  • This one calms me down after a long day.

  • Came out of school waiting to go to my car to listen to Watsky on the way home and it was the nicest day since last summer and I jammed this song all the way home. Best drive. ever.

  • yes...I approve of this message....:)

  • Socialist Much?

  • @DTGxSuperFx Ignorant much?

  • @jjole1 How so jjole? Is it ignorant to see what's there or is it ignorance when you can listen to other opinions? ignorance is bliss, you should know

  • We are the 99%

  • "Death is as American as a Cola can" <--- That is going in my top favorite quotes.

  • @jezzz111 He says "thefft is as american" not death.

  • @jezzz111 I think it's "theft"

  • it's the aspiring people like watsky that show me that there is hope for america.

  • Why is it so short :( wont stop listne it!

  • I used to profess, now I'm more pro-wonder. That's my favorite line.

  • Nice, nice, very nice....

  • gave me the chills. amazing song. keep it up

  • is his new album on itunes?

  • I had to listen to this more than once. First time to enjoy it, second time to soak it in, third time to be inspired by it.

  • This is my favorite watsky song :)

  • you know why i like you so much, coz you speak the truth, you dont rap about shit, inspiring man, inspiring, keep making videos

    :)

  • my man, when i listen to your music i feel something, not sure what it is but its good. its something between being inspired, having hope, and just coming to a self realization. you break it down like a motherfucker. amazing, just amazing.

  • Sheer perfection. Gave me chills.

  • Gave me chills.

  • watsky the guitar on this track just MIGHT be more awesome than ur rap... but im a little partial on account of the fact that im a player myself. hire me!

  • i love america. love the people at the stupid occupy's even if i highly don't agree with anything they believe. love is truly the only thing that will solve any of our problems. even though that sounds completely cliche it's still true.

  • So does the beginning lines mean that he's NOT marxist? I certainly do hope so..

  • @GetFukkinRaped I don't know if he's saying whether or not he is, I think he's more saying that, in the grand scheme of things, who the hell cares what we label ourselves. As long as we love each other, we'll be fine.

  • poetry....with swag 

  • i'm inspired!!!

  • Watsky how old are you?

  • @HippoShag123 He is 24

  • Wow this is truly beautiful, Watsky's finest work. I wish there were more guys like him.

  • @dartarro21 no....

  • @alextrotch Listen to the lyrics, he's saying he believes in a God. If you look at his video named "Mom + Dad and God and stuff" It's a vlog saying that when he was little he used to ask his parents what there religion was and they didn't know. He believes in a God. But he's not decided on his religion.

  • @fellydog how you make that

  • 1:14 is Watsky an atheist?

  • @alextroch I wouldn't label it

  • @alextroch Nah probably agnostic.

  • @alextroch He probably is, but he's not illuminatic either.

  • Beat sounds like RJD2 - Ghostwriter (1:24 - 1:34 ; 2:07 - 2:27 ). Thumbs up if u agree.

  • Beautiful

    

  • i love how the only musical influence on watsky's wikipedia is Foo Fighters....

  • biggest respect for you ...from Republic of Moldova !!!!!!!

  • If he didnt die on the cross, we dont need him

  • @harrycook14 Doesn't that seem like an opinion you should keep to yourself? I have no issue with people who are into their religion, though i personally don't pay much attention to religion, but you literally just ruled out every other religion as null and void, which just makes you kind of an elitist...

    No hate I just hate people blinded to other's thoughts, opinions, or feelings.

  • We dont need democracy. We need Christ. The one who loves us and cares for us. Who will always be there for us and never leave.

  • @harrycook14 except for the time he left around 2000 years ago.

  • @g0r3gyle and then came back and gave his believers the real life equivalent of super powers in the form of the holy spirit

  • @harrycook14 if he never left then we dont need him you moron 

  • @harrycook14 and that's when people start mixing up government and religion......don't go there, people believe in different things :)

  • @harrycook14 you know watsky is a jew right? He needs christ? Im an atheist...I need logic to take over this country.

  • 140 People work for Bank of America.

  • 140 people work for Bank of America.

  • My favorite Watsky song ever..

  • Such a great song! I can't get enough of Watsky's tracks!!!

  • I tried downloading you free mixtape on my new computer and it wont let me because I have to pay now... :(((( lol

  • @lolbrandi18 i just downloaded it yesterday for free....

  • @sasquatch446 How? When I click the link it says "Buy now Name your price"

  • 134 people believe in a higher power.

  • Holy shit this song is beautiful.

  • @heaneyboxing been playing him in my car for what feels like months. im honestly surprised that the cd isnt worn down in there.

  • @Jonathanvinge naked it bf3 and I love you

  • Right now I'm listening to this incredible song, my parents are on vacation in Spain, and I'm playing Modern Warefare III while having a few beers. This song really puts the icing on the cake. Well a blunt could do It's job too.

  • @Jonathanvinge AMEN!

  • Hell yeah represent the movement, just hope you didn't get arrested when they cracked down.

  • what's amazing is that this song was created before the Occupy movements even started

  • Comment removed

  • @HetlageFilms Yeah it is

  • Comment removed

  • @fallenempireoverdrve lolwut..you think they wrote and built the entire beat track, filmed this, and edited it in one month? you're fucking nuts, the song itself probably was written and they were working on it before the movements started, and then once they started they decided to use the movement as a visual to acompany the song, L2know video creation

  • @JesusTheGardener huh no the song is dedicated to occupywallstreet and occupyla

  • @JesusTheGardener actually, the occupy movement had started...shown by the fact that people are wearing 99% t-shirts. :P

  • @truelieswow This video was made during the movement, but the song itself was out for a couple months, me thinks.

  • @truelieswow It had started when they made the video, not the song. The song is from his album which came out august first. While the song does work well with occupy b-roll, it's about debating, and how he found a new attitude towards life.

  • @truelieswow actually the song came out before occupy wall street but the music video didn't

  • @truelieswow he made the video after it had started, but he wrote the SONG before, and decided it fit well with the occupy movement. thats was he meant

  • @truelieswow the song was written before the video was created. He was just able to apply what he had written to the movement.

  • "I'm gettin' older and I'm gettin' dumber. Or at least I know less than I did when I was younger." -Watsky

  • ya know, I don't want Watsky to become famous. I mean, yes, I would love for his voice to be heard everywhere, but right now I feel like he's one of us, ya know? Like a real guy in a real world. He's raw and I like that. I don't want him to be marred by celebrity status. He's kinda like my hero right now, and I just don't want to be disappointed. He's an amazing inspiration because I can relate so incredibly much. He's a good guy.

  • @samofhansen Good Guy George

  • @samofhansen but my comment has 214 thumbs up....?

  • this should be our national anthem...

  • he is so sexy

  • @crystalynn32 a new kind

  • @SolaceOfMushin hell yeah. i want him so bad dont u?

  • @crystalynn32 well im strtait....so no...but it makes me smile that you do....lol :D

  • So.. um... yea... Watsky for president?

  • @Minalear /watch?v=_dpCTMLTO4c

    That would be a great day

  • @forallmankindtowatch im not trying to fight, but im just wondering why you would go onto a pro-occupy video and say something like that. it seems like a bad idea

  • @forallmankindtowatch So you hope for them to revoke their right to protest peacefully? They've already done that with macing the protesters. Personally I'm more of a socialist than a liberal, but thanks for the arrogantly posted comment that all of us are of one solid side.

  • @forallmankindtowatch u r just 1 of those ppl who feed off the in-abilities of other people arent u, "get a job u say" they would if there wernt snobs like u there to shut them down just cos these people have different beleifs to u, or who's opportunities in life hav not been as good as urs, perhaps rather than goin to sunday school, mabey they were trying to just be able to go school but their parents coodnt afford it cos pricks like ur parents turned them down.

  • @forallmankindtowatch sure, just lay down and let an entire population get buttfucked by a small group of greedy neo-con fascist bankers who have the government in their pocket. If you DARE protest our banker overlords, you should get brutally attacked by the hired thug police! that's the true meaning of freedom. Fuck you man. You're what's wrong with the world.

  • @forallmankindtowatch "so blame it on other people who have worked for what they have..." not like because of the crisis al lot of good workers have lost their jobs "ey why dont you go out and get a job with good pay" crisis ... D: " if you do a janitor would make the same pay as a doctor,now that just isn't right!" Why not? doesn't a jailor make the same, if not more, hours then a doctor? ok, I agree, people should make more but stuff got WAAAY out of balance ...

  • good shit watsky!

  • @Farmall211 you made ma laugh :D

  • @GwnArne Tell me what made you laugh.. The fact that I'm not a Anti-American moron looking for a handout from the government that believes that the "Big Banks" are what make the laws now-a-days? Do you know who has the largest influence on who makes the laws and why our country is in the hole? Shit brained liberals who have the "poor me" attitude and start idiotic protests like the Occupy movement.

  • awesome

  • @crystalynn32 ikr

    

  • @duderucks what does that mean?

  • i know what u mean. he is really hot and i want him

  • I like your hands O.o

  • weak...

    

  • Favorite song of his because of all the truth. By far.

  • damn can i get the tabs and chords on the guitar for this song?!?!?? :D

  • Comment removed

  • I'm not a big fan of some of the policies that the Occupy people seem to promote. From what I've heard, there's been confrontation with the police and private property damage. However, Watsky's rap speaks very true. I haven't been moved by something so simple like this in a while. Keep creating art, and I'll keep listening. You're pretty exceptional, compared to most mainstream rappers these days. To everyone else reading this, have a great day. I'm gonna go ice-skating. :)

  • At 1:25 it sounds like Ghostwriter - RJD2

  • @TheMINIOSO Well that is because both songs use a descending minor chord, it's a common musical thing to do haha

  • Sweet sound G -

  • thumbs up if u hit repeat more then 5 times!

  • 0:56 if you want to skip to the rap

  • Comment removed

  • The first day I ever hear watsky playing on someones car CD player I will literally stop the car and bow in front of the mother fucker. That day will be special.

  • @heaneyboxing You should see my car then...

  • @heaneyboxing hahahaha

  • @heaneyboxing i bump watsky in my car every damn day!

  • @heaneyboxing i was playing him in my car bout an hour ago........

  • @heaneyboxing

    I actually just burned his mixtape, and shall be playing it in my car. You're welcome?

  • @heaneyboxing i blast his music on the public bus :P

  • @heaneyboxing Im getting my G2 soon so...:3

  • Is it wrong that I want to make sweet, tender love to Watsky?

  • im sorry but FUCK COLUMBUS da BITCH is a GAY FUCK

  • im not sure how political the actual song is, the song is about personal philosophy, and loving your country

  • read the description retards "#OccupyLA #OccupyWallStreet"

  • Is it just me or did the views on this video get LOWER

  • At the beginning: Oh that's a nice guitar solo

    2 minutes and 40 seconds later: Watsky just went HAM

  • One day we'll be reviewing Watsky in our english books.

  • @TheAbleOfficial More like our History books.

  • South park made a parody of the 99% :) gr8 song tho

  • Thanks for inspiring me to rap Watsky, I didn't know I had a rap talent til I heard pale kid raps fast and rapped fast too. No wonder I'm a good kisser.

  • "I know less than I did when I was younger" best line

  • It's not that i don't want to start shit, but i don't want start shit unless it's where my heart sits.

  • i used to fear death now im set to go under.......no fuck it i still fear!

  • I'm the dutch 80%
