  • astodan2600 is on dope!

    

  • Lean on me. When you're not strong. I'll be your friend.

  • You people are all on dope. Everyone. This version is terrible. The Paris Sister's version cannot be touched. Hotel Milk singer: even you know it's true.

    Dope.

  • @Astrodan2600 It might be true, but you also might be missing the point completely.

  • awwww this song's so sweet!!!! :)

  • i love your keeeeses <3

  • I love this song, i dedicated this song to my

    cat

  • I'm in love with Jeff magnum, and his Dee'ing.

  • I dedicate this song to my mom!!

  • Hes got fucking power behind that voice

  • Holy shit, The Broken Family Band covered this! I didn't know that :O

  • does anyone else just feel like they were fucked?

  • Jeff Mangum has the kind of voice John Lennon had, just raw pure energy in whichever direction he'd take it. Brilliant and touching. It's impossible not to love the man.

  • I like this version better than whatever I had before.

  • jeff mangum is not from this planet!

  • @floersche yeah, probably

    

  • <3

  • perfect.

    

  • can definatly hear that he was influenced by bob dylan with his vocals :)

  • How can i purchase this song?

  • Did Camera Obscura cover this or is this version the cover?

  • @ihatepartypoop They are both covers of the song originally performed by The Paris Sisters.

  • I don't even listen to these guys, but I really don't see how people are saying he can't sing. The dudes voice is really interesting and unconventional which makes for somewhat of a journey of a listen even though it's a pretty short song.

  • they couldn't come out with a bad, even if they tried

  • Heartbreakingly beautiful

  • @babyblue0731 without a doubt. I LOVE this song..

  • I love this

  • @iknowyoufromsomewher I love how you love this.

  • oh god. this is

    heavenly and mostly

    peals of the

    final dee’ing.

  • I love how you finger me, without being told.

  • sublime x

  • This is so pretty (: <3

  • @ Pipersacks, Tom Waits is amazing.

  • 0:44 is "Oh Darling" riff, hehe

  • Jeff Mangum is today's John Lennon. There. I said it.

  • @mussman717word I love Jeff but I don't think anyone is in the same class as John Lennon.

  • @mussman717word speaking of the elephant in the room

  • I never thought I'd see the day Jeff Mangum does doo-wop, but I'm sure glad I did.

  • YOU SSOUNDS WWAY MUCH BETTER

  • @omg0vagina BAHAHA your name is crackin me up!

  • I like this because it is real humanity.

  • cute.

  • This is better than the Live at Jittery Joe's version. This one is heart-crackingly gorgeous.

  • Love the song, but I think there should be a longer pause in the end. The voice sets a painful longing/ mood. Why say thank you and talk and deflate the moment so soon. AMAZING voice! Thanks!

  • &hearts; &hearts; &hearts;

  • I love this song so much, so much meaning

  • I dedicate this song to nobody at all...

  • @PreciousRobot i dedicate this song to everyone who finds it beautiful

  • @PreciousRobot good robot.

  • @PreciousRobot AMEN!!!!!!!111

  • People often mistake Jeff's style for an inability to sing. He is an extremely gifted and accomplishes singer....this was his style...there is a difference!

    I adored his voice then and I always will....he can deliver a song with an earnestness and emotion that most singers can only dream of!

  • @jwattie

    It's just the texture of his voice. Personally, I love it, but for some reason people confuse different voice colour with not singing properly.

    Even so, I couldn't care less whether or not a singer is hitting the note exactly if it's done with genuine emotion. Daniel Johnston and Julian Koster have awesome vocals, simply because of the rawness they exude.

  • @Beck436

    Agreed 100%. Have these naysayers ever heard of Tom Waits? One of the most influential musicians of the last thirty years, but I am sure he's not going to be performing Wagner soon. What about R.I.P. to the great Willy DeVille? An incredible emotional performer but that if anything makes him BETTER than a pure technical singer.

  • @pipersack

    You forgot the most obvious... Bob Dylan.

  • @jwattie I always saw it as he really has to push his voice and almost fight with it to stay in key. His determination and obsession is wnat makes him an artist and not just a singer. That's what's moved me about him.

  • @jwattie I couldn't agree more.

  • @jwattie I love nmh and I love his style but its a massive stretch to say he's a gifted and accomplished singer lol. He's an awful vocalist. pitchy, doesn't breath properly, its just that it doesn't matter. He's not trying to be a singer.

  • @tehryanx I disagree.

  • @jwattie his voice is really cool, sound like a very old style of singing or something like that, i like it at least :D

  • @mrbassoon1113337 old style of singing he's using->.bob dylan

  • @jwattie ok.i love this guy and the song....BUT,his vocals are poor...This is the reason i like him...

  • @tsabaola I don't think his vocals are poor. To judge this type of artist by some x factor/singing coach type standard of singing is insulting to his art. This is a completely different genre to the mainstream. Was Kurt Cobain a bad vocalist? No because what he was doing wasn't about some polished, well presented performance which people chewed up and shat out, it was about raw emotion and evoked an emotional response as does Mr Mangum with his vocal style. To call him poor is ignorant and rude.

  • Awesome.

  • These guys put a "Pulp Fiction" sound to a classic that haunts it.

  • This is so amazing! I lovee NMH

  • love this version

  • Beautiful!

  • great song, nice lyrics

  • soooo good!

  • <3 this song rocks.

  • It's odd how he can't sing technically, but he has such a great voice to listen too, great song

  • i love this

  • the one part sounds like "Oh, Darling" by the Beatles. Regardless, this is a specctacular song in its own right.

  • @FunkMiester4 personaliy I think the whole thing sounds like a Beatles song xD which is a pretty awesome thing in my book.

  • this is really good, but the jeff magnum acoustic version is better

  • Love this song :)

  • What the fuck!

    Why isn't there more people commenting

    on how great this song is

    Ahh i love it!!!!!

  • hi joe :)
