  • love this song! And just like Kimbra say's in the song she was featured in it's impossible not to read in to every word he says Awesome

  • I don't know what's better, the song or the creative interpretation in which this video is!??!! After seeing the video for somebody that I used to know (and listening to it excessively), I found this and they're both amazing, creative, a bit dark, but so...refreshing! It's soo nice to hear this kind of unusual music (: and it reminds me of Tim Burton a bit.....

  • Straight out of the Tim Burton playbook

  • omg... I thought Somebody I used to know was beautiful, mesmerizing. And then I found this song and video...

  • Who the f*** comes up with the music video ideas?! Its freaking crazy

  • The thing i love the most about gotye is that he sirsnt restrict himself to just one style he doesnt just lable himself as a pop musician or rock musician he just makes music he like and its awesome

  • This is soooooo bad, all you people who like this go and listen to some Arctic Monkeys or The Grates!!!!

    

  • Piękny kawałek.. magiczny.. 

  • This song and, Eyes wide open, are favorite rainy day songs.

  • wow, the more I listen to this song, the more I like it. Let's click on 'play' again! :)

  • this always makes me teary eyed

  • I dont get it. Why is it showing only my views?

  • Is it just me? Or does anyone else think at certain points his voice sounds a lot like Sting.....

  • @sarafina03 Yeah, I think the same, his voice and also his music. But I like them both

  • The Nightmare Before Christmas meets Gorillaz.

  • I have personally bumped up this song at least 40 times; I've played it constantly since finding it a few days ago.

  • Whoa, now how did this video get nearly double the views in like, a day?

  • @preceeding because I heard somebody that I used to know for the first time today on KTCL! Im sure most also fell enamored with it lol... I have a vintage soul and love his sound

  • probably the coolest integration of music and video that I have ever seen. I am outside the loop with popular culture. feels bad man.

  • Wow. Gotye, to me a male answer to Imogen Heap - who I also adore.

  • Let me in, where your thoughts have been, let me #occupyyourmind

  • it´s the nightparade !!

  • love his music

  • <3

  • I first heard Gotya on the radio yesterday.....i have not stop listening to his stuff since.

  • this video is a little bit like a Tim Burton film :)

  • SLENDERMEN!!!!

    

  • I've heard this song 26 times in the past 2 days...and I've replayed it twice

  • his videos are amazing...even though they dont even make sense ahaha :p

  • Does parts of this song sound like the theme song to "enemy of the states" ?!

  • Loving this dude!!

  • this reminded me of star wars.

  • j'arrive pas à dormir, il est 2H39 du matin, j'écoute cette chanson=) et je suis content, peace

  • GREAT ARTISTS : ))))

  • Gotye is a new Great Artist. Not just POP monkey : )

    GOTYE PLEASE DON'T SMOKE DON'T DRINK TOO MUCH

    DON'T USE DRUGS DRINK FRESH JUICE AND BE HEALTHY.

    DON'T DIE LIKE MOST OF GREATS ARTIST " LENNON COBAIN AND MANY OTHERS"

    : ))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))­))))))))))))))))) PO LA ND LOVES YOUR MUSIC.......

  • ...Still not sure how to pronouce that.

  • @ChocolateChipMonkey4 Gauthier just like Jean-Paul Gauthier :P

  • @ChocolateChipMonkey4 Go Tee Yay in one word.

  • So into this right now- This guys a dude, just pre ordered the album. Never heard of him before today. Brilliant.

  • This song's awsome. It just hurts inside in the right way.

  • Hmm, stumbled here by accident. Pretty awesome!

  • 0:28- Pink Floyd The Wall

  • @adarkerstormishere Yeah my dad also said that

  • I agree! He's great! Unbelievable songs & vds! Awsome! Can't stop playing! Just bought a song at itunes! I wish we could have the cd in Brasil...

  • awesome video...^^ <3

  • Stating the obvious, this is freaking fantastic. Music with more than one layer? Whoooa, weird concept huh? A lot of the time when people are unconventional, it ends up just being weird or boring or feeling less like music. Gotye is unconventional in a way that makes his music feel more like music rather than less. Such honest work.

  • i love all of yo songs :D

  • Wow. When I discovered this song 8 hours ago, it had 200 thousand views. Since then this has had over a million views.

    Good thing too. I was confused as to why it wasn't very popular. I love this video.

  • @PowBiffFtang

    lol, you saw the upload from his official channel, which still has only 200,000 views. The numbers are rising, but that fast, alas. btw, there's another upload of this song, which has 2.3 million views.

  • @Pulsar89

    Ahh, I thank you for the insight.

  • awesome - awesome song and awesome clip

  • Jego głos jest hipnotyzujący, a teledysk boski !!

  • Anyone who spells "Gotye" like "Goyte" should be shot.

  • @chunkymonkey838 anyone who calls themself chunky monket should be drowned.

  • Just found this today and i cant stop hitting the replay button...the only thing that stops it is getting addicted to his other songs as well.... here comes another obsession!!!!

  • the heart. the earth. all you want is to connect. but your hearts a mess. acknowledge what you love and let the melting unfold. step open and create. connect to your heart. connect to the earth. the heart of who you are

  • My ears are so happy :')

  • i love how his video clips are all EPIC

  • This song is beautiful.

  • dammit i disliked it

  • Just got introduced to this after talking about Marillion and Cherry Ghost and it's helluva song!

  • I-3 gotye. Seeing him in NY-3

  • @igreaterthan3you Seeing him in IL 4/03/12 Cant wait!!!! Have fun. Man he's brilliant!!!

  • The two comments below me put a smile on my face: a 50-year-old music lover and a young Justin Bieber fan. And both, like so many others, have become Gotye fans.

    Now that shows you how special he is.

  • @Pulsar89 Feeder fan here. Well the uniqueness of Gotye Is Inspiring, I heard I used to know a week ago on Kerrang radio.

  • Why have I not heard about him until a week ago? Who's been hiding this amazing talent from me!? Cause I'm addicted now. <3

  • Ok, I'm a true fan. I'm a 50 year old guy who brought his kids up on good music. Three days ago I was introduced to Gotye's music by a friend. Now my adult kids are loving it too. It's so original. I just keep finding more songs to like.

  • Gotye..Different,Catching, Compelling, AWESOME Leader in your own world of music from the heart !!!

  • I don't remember who impressed me so much for a looong time :))))) as Gotye.

    It's so spiritual. LOVE.

  • replay replay replay.... Thank you guys for this music

  • I love Goyte and this is probably my favourite of his songs. Even though Somebody That I Used To Know seems to be more popular, I like this one the best. Thanks Goyte and keep writing beautiful music. <3

  • @aria9912 "Gotye" is the name. Silly.

  • bring on the coming of the lord...revelation and new birth...spiritual awakening MUST manifest

  • you just sold an album...i soon as i make some cash, lol, contrary to your message, hahahahahha

  • 4:08 physi what?

  • THIS IS DEF GIVING ME IDEAS ON MAKIN MY NEXT VID.

  • I love the little creature on an iceberg with a long striped neck! He's so sad and so cute!:)

  • This video/music combination is fantastic. I love your sense of abstract creativity. Its unlike anything I've encountered so please keep creating.

  • <3

  • Team Fortress 2 fans will get me..Doesn't the head of the thing walking behind the main character look EXACTLY as the head of the Pyro character?

  • @QUOTZmaster A little bit. Maybe it's a boy pyro lol.

  • I think I'm addicted ..

  • You are a cross between Bjork & the struggle of human relational condition. Goyte, you are my new found love.

  • i love his music, but some of his videos are fucked up

  • I just discovered Your music Gotye and i'm very impressed. I can say that THE MUSIC COMES BACK after years of Big break. Please GIVE US MORE IF I CAN KINDLY ASK : ))))

    WARM GREETINGS FROM COLD POLAND ....... : )))))

  • I <3 Gotye. Listened to your songs about a month ago for the first time. I regret not having done it before... :( Incredible music

  • i love gotye videos there so artistic

  • Finally.... videos like the old days!!!

  • I really like the way these guys to their videos. When I first saw "Somebody that I used to know" I was impressed with the creativity with the video. Granted I have seen slightly familiar stuff in the past, but I still loved it! This is just cool. I have found a new band to listen to now! ^^

  • 0:28 Pink Floyd

  • He is my new infatuation. I cannot get this song or his face out of my mind. He peaks from quite an emotionally deep perspective. His other incredible song, "Somebody I Used to Know," has a similar theme. He seems to have suffered extreme heartache or he wouldn't hit it so spot on. I think we'll be seeing more of his enchanting face.

  • Gotye make me belive Again that Music and clips are KIND OF ART. Not just Piece Of Shit like most of Biebers and other Gagas and Fuckass : )

  • @MrVoojek Beirut and sigur ros did that for me

  • I tink i cryt 

  • oh. gotye made that song also ?? one of my favourites .... amaaaaazing ... amazing vocal, amazing composition. I didn't know that it's his song.

  • STOP ACTA!!!!!!!

  • Is there an HQ version? I love this video.

  • Perfection. Nothing else.

  • Reminds me of a Bjork song, so Awesome!

  • @coyotee62

    Venus As A Boy, right?

  • @Pulsar89 Yeah among others.

  • @coyotee62

    I love how Gotye can take on every music style. Exploring his songs is like a journey through music history. The guy is a wizard.

  • @Pulsar89 Yes, a genius really!

  • actually he sounds like the guy from tahiti 80

  • got-ye means eat ass in turkish :< nethertheless amazing song!

  • Big tune for sure

  • god damn

  • I love the animation, really goes to the music.

  • facebook_seansonmusic

    Check the music! Like the page!

  • It def has a sound reminiscent of radiohead and I hear Phil Collins a little bit too I guess. Mostly I'd just say it is its own thing and that makes me happy.

  • @TheRobCarroll

    i agree with you, i definatly hear Phill Collins and Radiohead but he also sometimes reminds me of Daniel Johns of Silverchair... a very good mixture id say :)

  • @Pietrocrespee i hear a lot of sting. but i like sting.

  • His face is sexy..

  • Well that was an enjoyable acid trip...

  • is it just me or does he have an uncanny sound resemblance to phil collins?

  • @fibee1380 Yes or Peter Gabriel.

  • is he making a lyrics for songs?amazing anyway thanku. peace from poland

  • Does music get any better than this? Cause I can die in peace now....This guy is absolutely brilliant!

  • How is it that I have lived on this earth for just over 30 years now and only discovered him this past week??? What a waste of time until now :)...

  • @mymusemusic Oh i can say the same thing This man is genius I dicovered him searching some Kimbra's stuff

  • gotye is PERFECT

  • It's like a truly bizarre ballet, i love it!

  • Looks like tim burton style! me likes!^^

  • Hey Uhm...Wanna Marry Me.(:

  • The first thing I thought when I woke up this morning was “I have to listen to that song again”. I have fallen in love with this music! So if by any chance Gotye reads this, then I have to say thank you.

  • @Stenermalene allllll nite in my head i was singing his songs and thinking about him! lol. i woke up at 330 to listen to his song and then go back to sleep!

  • An amalgamation of Koop and Peter Gabriel, love it

  • nie umiem znaleźć słów, żeby opisać wrażenie, jakie wywarł na mnie ten klip, muzyka, ten artysta.

  • Add a few more spirals to the video and you have a Tim Burton wet dream.

  • In my opinion, im gonna say i think this guy did was trippin' when he wote this song.

  • love how you can tell its gotye by the way he uses the stereo field

  • repeat

  • reminds me of tim burton's work (the video)

  • Looks like he has Poles for legs...

  • Does anyone else think that he is just GORGEOUS? His voice...and his face!!

  • @cookn4kids Oh yes!!!! Most definately!!!!

  • POLSKA przejmuje tą nutę!!!

  • precioso!

  • There is a secret interpretation only- laugh or not conspiracy is true.

  • but i don't wanna waste my love..... O gee!

  • replay after replay. and every single time I shiver. Just AMAZING....! And weird. And that's the best! I have goosebumps

  • the dislike bar is like a ninja... you cant see it... but you know its there

  • this song makes me weak in the knees like no other

  • this song occupies my mind all day. It's so awesomely strange

  • Honestly the lyrics described me when I was 24. My heart was literally divided. My soul was divided. Roots of bipolar issues were developing & i didn't see it happening. Anyone else have a heart that's messed up finding it hard to live? We weren't meant to feel this forever. There is a way out. I swear it to be true. But I doubt you will believe me -- so instead of just blurting it, please message me if you'd be interested to hear my story about the new heart that's out there to find.

  • Yup I am convinced Peter Gabriel and Bjork had a secret baby named Gotye... and how do you pronounce his name anyways? Thank you in advance if anyone answers.

  • @onewaytoprovegod

    Its pronounced 'Go-ti-yay'

  • @onewaytoprovegod

    It's pronounced as Gaultier, the French translation of his real name Wouter/Walter.

  • He sounds like a modern day Peter Gabriel... mixed w Bjork? lol

  • What a journey...what an artist...love the pink Floyd cymbal....

  • I can imagine how amazing it would be to lie down in a field at night looking up at the stars while being surrounded by the sound waves of this song.

  • Watch this high...your look on life will change forever...-_-

  • @StrangeWhiteness Being a celebrated sinner myself... if you have to be high to enjoy this, guess you need the life change anyways.. Good luck with things, brother..

  • I'm speechless. this is just amazing!
