Gary Jules - No poetry

[1550508]

Yes, Gary Jules is an enigma, but he has something to say and does it well.......soothing

voice and sheer poetry in many of his songs. I listen to him late at night with a candle

burning and I creep the keystrokes.........yes, Gary Jules is a surprising soul soothing artist.

[clayufcmusicfan]

Hey everyone,i just came up with a cool idea,mix this song with backstreet boys siberia instrumental and let no peotry play first then hurry up and play siberia instrumental,i think it will sound great if produced well :D.

[pumukellll]

@clayufcmusicfan never mix gary jules with the backstreet boys!!!! nooooooooo :DDD

[clayufcmusicfan]

@pumukellll lol their the most misunderstood band in the world i believe,but its a great mix,just give it a try or not.

[pumukellll]

@clayufcmusicfan how do you mean misunderstood?

[clayufcmusicfan]

@pumukellll Because alot of people are like " its the backstreet boys come on man,but alot of people dont see the talent just the " its the backstreet boys dude " thing. Watch their national anthem and tell me they suck lol.

[TeknicalDifficultiez]

I read on info about him that although his albums are amazing they were handled poorly by a bad record company so alota people don't know about him :'( and how about thumbs up if helpful :D

[pumukellll]

the first sentence is the best one.

[jdgonzalez1990]

Chuck Norris listens to Gary Jules.

[SIXTIESMUSICGUY]

GREAT LYRICS , GREAT SONG ,EVEN BETTER ARTISTE :)

[OphelieSing]

W.O.N.D.E.R.F.U.L. <3

[micahh182]

this song helps me get through the day and what not all of them do

[QeTuShaaa]

This song helps me ...

[n1nja0tt3r]

I HATE when people stop liking music because it's popular. Why not like music because it's beautiful or moves you or has a good beat? Odds are if someone is good they will at some point become popular. Stop whining about how you have to hate him now and be happy people recognize a good artist.

[Nomad7583]

His music reminds me of someone but I can't figure out who I hear in his songs. I love this song.

[BlackKeerpronx]

good artist, I love Madworld and I'm learning the song on keyboard

[Echtlakritz]

i like this, as well sad, but as well friendly soft, really cool for comming down and relaxing !

[123realm123]

im glad hes not more well know :) he would get 2 much hype and he might try change with the times :( i love his music just the way it is

[eggburner123]

Really nice music. So simple, makes you stop and think about everything. I can only imagine what he would be able to do, given the proper respect and time. If only. He doesn't right about the typical stuff. Just whatever comes across his mind. I hope to be as talented someday.

[CinderellaSeaticus]

I love gary Jules' lyrics, his music is alright I wish he would just not include any auto tunes or sound effects, it kinda ruins it for me, and he has such a great voice which is why i would like to see him live some time so it will be just plain and simple acoustic, no annoying auto tunes, no sound effects that make it sound like country, and any other things, just him and his guitar would sound great

[DrunkenLeprechaunPro]

@CinderellaSeaticus

I didn't hear any autotune? He doubles his voice for effect and harmony, but that's not cheating. And he doesn't use sound effects, that's an electric guitar playing for added harmony.

It's all about the Harmony!

[sacredmonkeygut]

gary jules is to pro he uses music to make you think entirly difrant for only a few moments and that is realy what i love about his music his voice is real nice to

[Edenhyde246]

rainymood + this song = bliss

[evilpacman99]

@Edenhyde246

Rainy mood?!?! It just so happens he has an umbrella! lol.

[EndlessUroboros]

Gary Jules is one of my influences to be a musician.

[GingerChick47]

I really love Gary Jules, I have asked my friends if they ever heard of them and once they hear him, they always say 'why havent I heard of him before?. Its a wonder.

[MrSchnitzel19]

I guess the reason why Gary Jules is not more popular is because all those "mainstream zombie fellowers" just don't listen to him. But seriously, better keep him a great, unpopular musican than endanger his great music by mainstreammedia influences. At least I think so xD

[VernalDaylight]

wow...today i noticed he had also other songs than mad world :D

and i LOVE it!! such a wonderful voice an beautiful songs^^

[YouSuckMyPeanutts]

Dude is because of the iluminati....its sounds crazy but thats the truth and yea Gary Jules is awesome :D

[NewDivisions]

mad world is better but this is pretty good

[KsAnNa]

I love the first line.

[conlew30]

you think you are different but you are not.

[fleng94]

I don't get this kinda music :S it's just sleep inducing

[JustSmileZMM]

great great great song!!

[lazlowithguitar]

Can't understand how some commenters here just write about some discussions... on a beautifull song :P

[SHMOLEnBRUNOpwnsu]

this shit is ripping me up!!! in a good way

[cdrove]

We're just double dippers :)

[SecretIVUIIHear]

@cdrove Where's the pain when the dip is yours, alone? I even lick my fingers then the bowl :-D

[windprincess95]

gary juler best song is "mad world" i like the lyrics of his songs

[birdstuckinchimney]

Mad World is not his song

[windprincess95]

ok. i didn't know that , who's song is it? because i really like it and i want to know

[bonjgday]

Tears for Fears

[GuitaristBryan]

@bonjgday

Right....

But there's is pretty bad....

I like his much better.

[EternalRequiem198]

@birdstuckinchimney Yeah, but he made it WAAAY better, now how man people can do that.. Let's just face it Tears for Fear's version is no where near as good as his remake of it.. Now I do have to give TfF cred though, if they hadn't have made it, he wouldn't have made his version.. People who don't know who TfFs are and give him ALL the credit kinda make me mad..

[Nachtschrat]

@windprincess95 The song was written and released frst time by Tears For Fears

[xFunkyLassX]

I LOVEE GARY JULEES <3

[Bearswin8584]

saw him live, he truly is a musician. his voice is incredible

[SlowhandStoffl]

for me this is his best song

i like the line where he sings

there is no poetry between us

says the paper to the pen

XD

[bloofan06]

I only know "Mad World" and am contemplating buying his CD. I'm glad people are posting his other songs here so I can preview them! This one is great!

[qazplmjo]

Yes...his songs are great.

BTW: Mad World's originally from Tears for Fears

He only does a Really great Cover!

[Ostarara]

If you haven't already, you really should buy it.

[Enigma0222]

it sounded like he took a big puff of a joint in teh beginning

[mrpickles77]

талантливый человек. жаль, что в своей стране я подобных не припомню

[natetheD]

wtf

[AnnaMendez1983]

Gary Jules is so talented. Its a wonder he's not more well known

[singwee]

Because not everyone knows how to appreciate true Music and Art. Teens nowadays veer towards mainstream, mainstream, sex, sex, love, love and nothing else.

[chunckysmurfs]

...dont forget the drugs... we veer towards drugs too

[singwee]

true (:

[birdstuckinchimney]

Brilliant response chunky. Cracked me up

[shiba249]

im a teen and you are so correct im in love with someone older than me and i know we can never be with each other but i love soft songs like these all they listen to is akon and stuff like that chavs mostly its so annoying I HATE CHAVS

[UnknownDeath44]

I'm thirteen and i listen to a variety of music(Not including pop rap etc.), but Gary Jules is definitely one of my favorites.

[cahman44]

so true, me and my friend fight a daily battle to get people away from that shit music

[birdstuckinchimney]

"The Teens nowdays"! Listen to yourself dude, you sound just like the old people I despised so much when I was a teen.

[birdstuckinchimney]

So teens nowdays like double helpings of everything?

[Haspyo]

Fuck mainstream, fuck promiscuous sex, and True Love exists, you just have to let it find you. That bullshit love that everyone uses every day is overplayed like a rap song on the radio. You need to find the love that's like Gary Jules' music, hidden, and absolutely amazing and pure.

[SecretIVUIIHear]

@Haspyo The true pursuit of awesomness. I hope you mary her!

[Haspyo]

@SecretlVUllHear I hope that we get married as well. We've been together for two years as it is, and I love her more with every passing day. She's the brightest star in my life and the reason that I keep going every day.

[kiddo1134]

@Haspyo She sounds like a lovely girl. :)

[bumratbob]

homo

[Haspyo]

@bumratbob

Don't be jealous 'cause you'll be sad and alone for your life.

[bumratbob]

*sigh* probably

...

you can say you love her (or him?) just don't be so poetic about it and i won't call you a homo.

[Haspyo]

@bumratbob

I wasn't being poetic. Shakespear, that man was being poetic. I was being serious. I probably would've dropped out of college or not gone at all if it wasn't for her, and she amazes me every day.

[Haspyo]

@SecretIVUIIHear

Well, turns out she wasn't the one for me. She's still my best friend though, so all I lost was a girlfriend. Life gets better though, right? Some day I'll find the one, and it'll be amazing.

[Eragonius]

I was in the same situation... exactly the same situation... when she started to lie me... one week ago... and I realised that when she said she don't want to lose me... that was only a lie... I fucked my life... I was loving this girl for 3 years... even when she was in Canada for one and a half years (I am from Romania)... sry... maybe I am a retard... but I needed to say this somewhere, to someone... you can throw with potatoes on me now :)...

[Haspyo]

@Eragonius Don't be sorry, and you're not retarded. There will be no potatoes thrown here, friend. 'Twas not a waste of your life. It was a learning experience. I'm sorry that it was a harsh lesson to be learned. My (ex)girlfriend and I split as well, albeit on better terms.  It's good to share, and I'm one that will always listen.

[xelin35]

@Eragonius It's so difficult to learn the lessons the universe sends us in it's many forms... one of them being relationships. It's very disheartening to give yourself to someone and then not have that returned.... tragic really... My situation was purely just a realization that our goals were not in line- so better to stop now than down the road with resentment and remorse. I almost rather have it that way....but deep inside I know this is best to (as he put it) die beautful.

[thomasin2000]

@Eragonius Don't worry mate, it's just another experience, one of much that will come. Every one we have defines who we are.

[Haspyo]

Thanks to everyone that's given me a thumbs up for that.

[junkknowngambler]

@Haspyo fuck sex?

[Darkhunterofsoran]

@junkknowngambler yea if it's done for the heck of it, but if it's true love then it's worth it, but this crap on the mainstream about hoes and drugs have no meaning to it, songs like this actually have meaning to it

[Haspyo]

@junkknowngambler If you'd read, I said fuck promiscuous sex. Do what you want, no one's gonna stop you. But what's the point of sleeping with a whole town of people. It's shallow and empty, like a children's pool. If you're gonna have sex with someone, make sure it's someone that deserves it of you, and someone that you deserve. Don't give yourself to everyone that passes by. When you're done with that life, what's left? No one will be there for you.

[hellena4955968]

@Haspyo i just love the way you think about love :X very nice

the world would be a better place if more people would think like this

[pumukellll]

@Haspyo wise words ...wise words! i really dont get how people dont get bored by jason deruo and friends :D

[7monkeyman8]

@AnnaMendez1983 agreed his songs are really soft and for some reason really make me think

[RickyBobby92492]

@AnnaMendez1983

Because people without talent are at the top these days...

such an upside down world we live in.

[baggie2012]

@RickyBobby92492 So True may mate. 

[JustDontJoke]

@AnnaMendez1983 He would be more well known if he dident make ppl think so much about life and feeling .. ppl in this day and age dont stop to look around .. its sad .

[evilpacman99]

@AnnaMendez1983

Maybe that is how he would want it.. To only touch the people who let him.. Not everyone deserves the presence of greatness in their lives

[TheKrysis]

@AnnaMendez1983 Fame ruins people. It's good he's not well known if you know what I mean?

[TheLightningSaix]

@AnnaMendez1983 cuz he died

[Ruki182]

@TheLightningSaix

Nope, he didn't o:

[TheLightningSaix]

@Ruki182 he was raped to death

[AdmiralThrawn000]

@AnnaMendez1983 Because taste in music these days sucks. lol

[melrodpush]

@AnnaMendez1983 I'm a fan also. He isn't popular because his music isn't generic and has a smaller target audience. Besides, as much as i'm a fan, he's a much of a muchness after a while I.E He isn't diverse. That said I greatly enjoy his music.

[ITSsugarbaby]

This is the most beautiful song....for some reason this makes me so sad i nearly cry....his voice is amazing and he is even better live :)

[ARMSxOFxSORROW]

OMG i feel the same way...it makes me feel so sad :'[ but idk why...but i really like it

[citizen1020]

his lyrics break away from the cliche and shallow lyrics that so many artists use today. he has a true talent to appeal to emotion and is not afraid to cause us all to stop and think. Excellent.

[rayn15]

@citizen1020 good analysis! i totally agree with that shit! dope artist

[CatFlashBlue]

Alternative Lyrics and Meaning?

there's no poetry between us, said the paper to the pen.

We have nothing in common, said the feather to the hen.

does that make us any different, I said to you?

Is it really through?

Chorus

No poetry could save this relationship,

no poetry could take back the words that have been said.

No bird will fly more free than I feel right now,

no bird could fix the cuts and bruises that followed us like a shadow.

[GodHandPresents]

cool.. did u make those? there really sweet

[CatFlashBlue]

Yeah. It was random I guess... thanks babe ;)

[soulrunner101]

It's good but it sounded little bit too cliche

[CatFlashBlue]

I know I completely agree! but I just wrote it because I thought it was cool I could make the rhymes :D

I love alternative music and stuff that is so bizarre and yet in a way it makes sense too...

[Justthatgirl15]

I think it's a very nice song.

[sonnyransom15]

theres no poetry between us

said the paper to the pen

something burning in the attick

but in time will not defend

in the ark of conversation

pass the teeth behind a smile

down the mirical mile

to the bottom of the ladderr

paint your eyes and hide the tatter

whats the matterr

[isnype2]

this guy makes me want a piano on my roof

[MeanMachineNL]

Very ver nice ! makes me emotional

[HeyColbyMay]

Jules said this was his favorite song of he's written!

[RobotPirateNinja616]

Have you been reading Wikipedia? >_>

[HeyColbyMay]

Of course I have, it's the source of all truth...

[Chenticchan]

Lol.

[XorErased]

This is an amazing song.

[Milhousefan01]

I like that picture!
