The OG listeners to this song will remember this music video not the new one, and how Declan used to respond to the comments on this video when it was first released. He used respond to the haters saying he poured his heart and soul into this song. And now 6 years later he proved them wrong and he is a legend. Cool stuff. Time flies.
Right. And this music video captured this song so perfectly to me (Although the other one is very good as well, of course, just different). It's surreal to think that I listened to this song and fell in love with it, and now others also like it. Super cool!🎉
Para quem é do Brasil e não entende a letra: É uma crítica social, mas principalmente à FIFA por ter concedido a Copa ao Brasil em 2014 e não ter sequer citado a pobreza que afeta grande parte da população brasileira.
Exatamente, também sou do Brasil e o que você disse é a realidade brasileira, tenho apenas 20 anos e respiro isso todos os dias, não tenho mais ânimo e planos para viver e trabalhar aqui no Brasil, no Brasil existem verdades surreais que soam irreais porque nós não acreditamos que isso é verdade, o declínio econômico brasileiro.
Se engana que o problema está apenas na presidência, um presidente não governa um país sozinho. A culpa é do congresso e do senado, ambos cheios de corruptos interesseiros que defendem o que lhes é de interesse e para suas famílias. É lá que deveríamos estar com os olhos voltados e vigilantes constantemente, observando, cobrando, criticando e expondo publicamente desvios éticos.
Damn I'm so glad I discovered this kid. Not only talented but sending a message instead of catchy pop tunes about dates and kisses. Hopefully he's headed for a long and successful career.
Okay but let's just appreciate his voice cracks and slight change of tones for a sec. I love how he does that. It just makes the song much more raw and meaningful. You can clearly feel his emotions in your soul along with the fangirl emotions in your heart. I fucking love it tbh❤️
@@person9775 i also listen to riptide by vance joy everyday i have interesting music taste but i like some of taylor swift songs and i listen to like Beach Bunny a band and the Fray
Hey just a random fan, Wanted to say thank you for releasing the song the time you did. I play this song in memory of my Grandfather. He was going through a rough cancer battle stage 4 bladder stage 2 heart, i remember seeing him, he was losing life, and he passed later on. But whenever this song plays I still feel like I have a piece of him. Especially in the chorus at the beginning “ooooooooooooOoooooooooooooo” makes me wish he is somewhere better, and I hope he is, this song is so peaceful and I just hope he headed to peace in this next life. Thank you again Declan McKenna. We Love you.
Even tho im late,Im so happy I found him.I love his style,music,and overall everything! He deserves even more fame. This songs reminds me of summer,of friends,good memories,and it brings an unexplainable feeling out of me.Best song ever!
This is an amazing song. Especially when you consider the fact that he's only 17, and was, what, 16 when he recorded? I mean, seriously, just that should get this video at LEAST 500,000 views eventually. Why it isn't there yet is beyond me. And now I'm torn because I just want to keep the music to myself but I want him to be famous! Or more famous, anyway.
*TRADUÇÃO PORTUGUÊS BR* Ouvi dizer que você vendeu a Amazônia Para mostrar que o país de onde você é É onde o mundo deve querer estar para encontrar algo que todas as pessoas precisam Eu estou sem esperanças agora que nós ganhamos toda vez e eu não sei como Porque eu não comprei você e eu não me vendi Mas as pessoas estão morrendo para aparecer na TV Ouvi dizer que ele vive em um rio em algum lugar Com 6 carros e um urso pardo Ele tem olhos, mas ele não pode ver Bem, ele fala como um anjo, mas ele se parece comigo Oh senhor! O que eu me tornei? Eu sou a face de Deus, eu sou filho de meu pai Eu não sou, o que você acha que você vê Eu sei que você não pode comer couro, mas você não pode me parar Por que você iria mentir, por que você iria mentir sobre como você se sente? Eu tenho uma missão e minha missão é real Porque você teve suas chances, você teve o suficiente Eu vou queimar sua casa para espalhar a paz e o amor E isso me deixa para baixo Oh senhor, como isso me deixa para baixo Ouvi dizer que ele vive em um rio em algum lugar Com 6 carros e um urso pardo Ele tem olhos, mas ele não pode ver Bem, ele fala como um anjo, mas ele se parece comigo Oh senhor! Oh senhor! Eu quero jogar o jogo bonito, enquanto eu estou no Brasil Porque todo mundo joga o jogo bonito no Brasil E é tudo que você sempre quis, e é tudo o que você ainda quer Você não quer jogar o jogo bonito no Brasil? Oh sim! Ouvi dizer que ele vive em um rio em algum lugar Com 6 carros e um urso pardo Ele tem olhos, mas ele não pode ver Bem, ele fala como um anjo, mas ele se parece comigo! Ouvi dizer que ele vive em um rio em algum lugar Com 6 carros e um urso pardo Ele tem olhos, mas ele não pode ver Bem, ele fala como um anjo, mas ele se parece comigo!
SLC, UT. Tonight. The first show at the Eccles Theater, opened for The Head and the Heart. Brought me here. Visceral, with the raspy sound and harsh lighting.
I had heard of him and maybe even listened to 1 or 2 of his songs ..but I am so mad rn that it took me this long to give his music a proper chance ughhhhh... Still ...at least I'm here now ..thanks to his BBC radio cover of Abba's "slipping through my fingers" ...that was absolutely beautiful .. and so is this ... What a talented lad !

Can’t believe I forgot to subscribe and like when I’ve been listening to Declan for almost 4 years now. Dude is so under rated and a complete genius. Like he’s older than his age
@NOXY GG Ele fez um critica construtiva sobra a sede da copa do mundo 2014 ser no Brasil, mesmo a FIFA sabendo da pobreza e da luta que os Brasileiros sofriam ( e alguns ainda sofrem) por causa da crise financeira.
I met you with this song 3 years ago and i loved you. Then, i forgot this, but i found it with an old playlist i made... Well, i love u again and now i’m listening all of your new music. XOXO
same happened to me! Not that I need another reason to love Conan, but compared to other late night tv he always has the best musical guests, don't u think?
You're amazing dude! I really really like your songs and yeah I think you're gonna be famous someday. Your style is different of what's common and I love it Excuse my bad english (I'm brazilian- Is it intentional for me to be commenting in exacly this song? maybe) I was needing music like this
I remember listening to this song with my cousin in 5th grade summer and now I found the song again and I’m in 9th grade now thank you so much for the memory you made
Amo esta canción 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
I hope he doesn't delete this one now that he upgraded it. If he does delete this then I'll miss it a lot bc I always used to watch this version of the video when I was feeling down.
I used to sing this song and Humungous to my daughter when she was 5..and she used to always ask to hear Deckwin mckewa over and over and say it was her boyfriend 😅..shes now 12 and still loves me singing along to it...he.s a true artist!!!
hi ho silver ohs (now called tuft) but their music is still under the name hi ho silver ohs on spotify and whatnot (although they might have one album under the name tuft).
