That like many many others, such a good song!! Frank is definitely underrated for what ever reason i do not know, but i was stoked to see him at the Commodore in Vancouver!!!
Frank Black is the King of COOL. he's up there with Elvis, Bob Dylan, lou reed. Kurt Cobain totally ripped off the Pixies sound and because he looked like a junkie- MTV and the rest of the world ate it up w a plastic spoon. .
if all you see is a fat man singing. your missing out on the voice of a generation.
you know what...i bet if you gave frank an hour to create a song it would still turn out 3 times as good as anything else being created these days...he a magician!!
This is such a wonderful, wonderful song. The version recorded for Sunday Sunny Mill Valley Groove Day is my favourite, but just Frank on his own here sounds really powerful too.
Yeah man for sure..... i'm the same!!! And he's still getting better...... i love this total comfort zone he's in at the moment.... i'm really digging the grand duchy/black francis stuff he's doing at the moment.....
This videos amazing i keep watching it...... it makes hairs stand on the back of m neck still! It's a really touching moment.....
I suppose he is a bit of an impressionist... but that's completely irrelevant! He's just simply the best songwriter of our generation.....
Also this is further proof of the fact that Buxton has the best job out of anyone really... Not many people get to randomly record One of their idols.... make music videos for radiohead, have a great radio show etc etc etc....
This is a great moment, to guys i respect doing soemthing rather stunning together....
Most modern rock sucks balls. Frank Black never disappoints. Honeycomb had weird lyrics, if conventional music, and Fastman was simply a treat from start to finish, a blend of everything we love about rock and "The Man Himself." Here's to Frank's modern-day "Teenager of the Year" opus, if it ever happens.
He's the fucking Leonardo Di Vinci of music, and like Crackerdamus said "if there was ever a rock bible, frank would be the jesus of it..." Truer ever time you here it.

frank black sounds like jack black looks like kyle gass. what is this tenacious d all in one hahaha. i know that was corny, i never even heard of this guy
'frank black sounds like jack black looks like kyle gass. what is this tenacious d all in one hahaha. i know that was corny, i never even heard of this guy' why go on about something you don't have a clue about? I could say A7X look like second-rate goth-punks who play arse-guitar but i don't cause i know hardly anything about them. thats why I say 'then fuck off please!'
Its sad to think that after he's gone he proberly want be remembered by most people. Even though he is the greatest songwriter ever. But i guess thats ol'Franks amazingness!!!
@wwgt nope, I'm chubby. And if you're that sensitive to a comment that was just ment as a funny praise of one of the coolest musicians of rock: you got a problem, dude!
I liked THE EASTER BUNNY IS EATING MY CANDY on youtube and they used his music- now THAT is how a short horror should be - but it's scary as hell - you been warned...
you simply have to face the fact and aknowledge that it's true no matter how typical and naive it SOUNDS: Frank Black is one of the few absolute greatest songwriters of our generation and others: Mr Thompson, thank you very much for all the music that enhanced so many people's lives all those years. It may feel like something natural that you simply have to do. Something wich feels as normal and important as breathing. But, i assure you, it means a lot more for 'us'. Thank You
I have always been very fond of him. I love his voice. In some of his songs he reminds me of Neil Young and the short round one named that used to sing with him in the sixties and seventies.
This song is great! Way cooool!!! What album's it from??
And whoever thinks Frank's solo stuff doesn't compare to the Pixies, they aren't paying attention. Wise up! He's so, so much better solo and/or with a band....he's written such good songs.
