Watsky & Mody- Ghost Party w/ Mieka Pauley 

Fun fact: I asked Watsky tonight at his poetry show what his favorite poem of his is and he said it was this one

why isnt this on spotify tho

This is still one of my favorite songs of all time. It complements each season, all weather, and every emotion. This song has seen me through a lot in the past 3 years. Thanks George.

"Life is like dodgeball. You can stand in the corner and last a little longer. But you'll never win that way." That's my new motto.

I recognized Mary Doodles the second her pen touched the paper. Her drawings are brilliant!

I have to come back every so often for a listen. 9 years ago already? Damn Watsky- it’s been a journey- thanks man

4 years later and I still love it.

This Is not a poem. This is not a song. This is a masterpiece

"god's a bully, and he's making it rain dodgeballs"- George Watsky God bless.

I got this on repeat for more than 4 hours, its my new favouite song. thanks Watsky

My bro Watsky deserves so much more than the entertainment industry will ever allow him. Bro stands for what he stands for, and has a flow you can't groom. Loved him since 2016. Haven't ever stopped being strong like an OAK, and hearing the sad sound of a guitar string snapping. ❤

[Verse 1: Mieka] Minding my own business Knock at the door, who is it? Be right there, one minute Gotta get up and go get it Got white hair, eyes all crazy Now most madmen don't faze me But these guys, I'll admit it, got me scared we're finished Chorus The scientists proved we're all gonna die They got charts and equations, the how and the why You did not invite em and neither did I But they're here, drink up, we're all gonna die Poetry section 1 Ghosts must always feel like they're visiting their old high school They don't recognize any of these new kids The halls, they twist the same, but there are all these odd new posters on the walls When I'm trying to get to get bed I start thinking about endings And instead of simply counting trying to sleep I'm counting down I'm sacrificing sheep At parties I wander from room to room not sure what I'm looking for I think I'm supposed to find another person here When I smoke too much weed And I get paranoid that every pair of eyes is glued to me And maybe they are And I'm not crazy And the spirit of every bastard who ever had a drink in this place is back for old times' sake Maybe there's a million of them Having their own party beside us And they're staring Thinking, "Look at all those lonely, solid people Pretending to check their cell phones Grandma lived 99 years and never learned to drive At the end of her life She didn't know one person left in her own age God's a bully and he makes it rain dodgeballs You can stand off in the corner and you might last a little longer But you'll never win that way Verse 2: Mieka] I go do my laundry Those dogs are right behind me Get lost in some party Those creeps will always find me Who are they? What is this? I mind my own damn business Always there to remind me all about their findings The scientists proved we're all gonna die They got charts and equations, the how and the why You did not invite em and neither did I But they're here, drink up, we're all gonna die The scientists proved we're all gonna die They got charts and equations, the how and the why You did not invite em and neither did I But they're here, drink up, we're all we're all gonna die Poetry 2 You're telling me a little vodka could kill me? How do you even know it's there? It's so still you can see right through it Well you can see through me too Said the ghost And I'm here You know because you can feel me And that makes sense Because I'm too fucked up to be skeptical right now You get drunk and start believing in things Like that shapes and even better shapes Like that a night with some stranger's gonna make you happy The only people brave enough for suicide are the cowards We're all looking out of the corner of our eyes For where to go next Like "this party sucks, there must be someplace better" The ghosts, they know we're thinking like chumps. they know it's not important who we go home with tonight Partly cause they can't generate friction, so they can't have sex But mostly because party is right here And it's the best party ever I mean look bro, ben franklin is making out with marie curie Fucking classic, Reagan's doing his falling out the window bit again Casper can't even hold his liquor It goes right through him You never seen smoke rings until you've seen a Ghengis Khan hit the hookah Chris Farley'll even let you use him as a vaporizer bag if you ask real nice Our eyes are little projectors Life's a drive-in movie theater and my grandma needs a ride

Why doesn't this have more hits?

:)

I just remembered that this is the clip that made me know both Watsky and Mary Doodles. I still love them both more than 10 years later, their work is incredible.

George Watsky, Mieka Pauley and Mary Doodles together...pure magic. Doing even one routine thing today will be near impossible.

he was planning the stick to your guns video at the beginning

Why is everyone getting defensive? Yes this is a poem, and yes this is a song, and yes we're all going to die, and no, nobody knows what's going to happen afterwards. What is there to argue about? Just scroll up and watch/listen to the genius.

deserves some internet video award. for direction, music, lyrics, poetry, art and that feeling it gave you in your midsection.

Why is still at 500k? This is one of the best songs ever, so much flow, passion and good mood with some deep message. Cmon guys!

"The only people brave enough for suicide are the cowards." -George Watsky, Ghost Party

Meanwhile, Zach Sherwin is using his Sharpie to write the letter C to change "Defeated" to "Defecated"

Watsky, never change. For fuck sake please never change your ways of making music, it is possibly the most original shit I have ever heard. I didn't know that music this down to earth could come out at clear as it does. There's no beating around the bush in this music and honestly that's exactly how it should be. I'll always be a fan as long as the music stays true. Good work man

Some music you simply hear, some music pulls on your heart strings, gets your head banging and your fist pumping. Watsky's music? Watsky's music kicks your soul out of your body and into the world. Off to create more awesome in the world.

I forgot how much i fucking LOVE this song.

I love the artwork and the way it's got more of a poetic vibe but the chorus is sang I love the combination of the poetry singing and drawing and the artwork it creates all put together

Absolutely wonderful. Wonderful lyrics, great delivery, the singer managed to express as well as sing the words, and the drawings were incredible. The video was well done too... I guess talent attracts talent.

Music, poetry, art and cinematography, with a bit of humor. This is brilliant.

Whoever reads this I want you to know you are wonderful and you matter! You are appreciated. I believe in you.

That must be a hell of a party... Marie Curie was married... no ones surprised by Ben Franklin though...

wow, i am just blown away by the quality of this song and music video. thank you for making this.

I love watsky have for years and have never heard this till I threw on a wounded healer playlist as I'm losing it from my little brother passing about 5 years after my dad. Watsky, Ren, nf all have been help to get some stuff out... I love you all.

You guys made mary pay for her own drinks after she did all that art for you?

2017?

Everything was great. She's got a great voice. I just enjoyed the whole thing. Thank you Watsky.

George Watsky is just...he...hm. He always just, knows what to do to make himself better. That is, he knows that he just has to keep doing what he's been doing, and it'll get progressively more awesome.

I think watsky is a talented artist and I applaud him for being unconventional. If given the opportunity I would love to sit down with him and find what makes him tick, what compels him to pen lyrics. I do have to say though, his ambiguous thoughts for a track like this are loose and a jumbled mess at best. I do think he is a better artist when he raps fast ( a phenomenal one at that, much better than I) but I think there is a lot of development he could experience if he really analyzed his lyrics and tried to have his words coincide with the emotion of the chorus. It didn't match up to me, but I will say that suicide line about cowards are the only ones brave enough to do was pure genius. The rest was forgettable. Keep up the hard work man and hats off to Mieka Pauley for the awesome chorus and the artist. From one creative writer with similar ambitions to another, I hope to hear more from you watsky

i really like the singing in this song but when watsky talks over the music it kind of ruins it for me

Today was the first time I listened to this song. Then, I checked out NicePeter's channel, which led me to JustDoArt. After watching that video, I decided to watch more Watsky, but I accidentally clicked an annotation. Which led me to Watsky. Awesome.

This is so comforting to someone that had fear problems with death as a child....and well.....I still fear!!!! Thank's Watsky!!

God damn Watsky you just keep getting better and better. This is why I share everyone one of your videos with everyone one I know. Because if they don't like you, I don't like them.

"you could stand off in the corner and you might last a little longer, but you'll never win that way." oh, beautiful

Dear Mr. Watsky, This song new how to pull all the the strings in my emotions. It really hit hard. I loved it. More like this please. You're the best. SIncerely, Your loyal fan.

Mieka's voice just tugs on my heartstrings... Hard.

Amazing editing, and love the drawings. Love your work Watsky.

I can't stop listening to this... it is just too beautiful and is plain genius.

This is my favorite Watsky song. It's chorus is an incredible earworm.

I can't stop listening to this. Must have gone through it a dozen times now at least.

This stuff needs to be on iTunes man. Seriously I love this.

Great song and beautiful video. Nice work Mr. Watsky.

Thank you Watsky! More than you will ever know.

That was so moving, thank you so much for posting this.

That was breath taking. I want it back.

Absolutely breathtaking. A pleasure to watch and listen to,. Thank you x

The only chart and equation I see is the linear progression of how more awesome your art has gotten over the last year. Long time listener, here, rarely put in awe enough to comment. This song is powerful, man.

Mary Doodles is...wow good. Another fantastic piece of work

I think I'll just listen to this over and over and over again, cheers

So much talent just pouring out of this video

"you get dunk and start believing in things. like shapes, and even better shapes" greatest thing I've ever heard.

This guy spits out some of the most philosophical rhymes I've ever heard

Your words are just amazing... and it inspires me.

this is my fave of your new stuff thus fsr. thanks watsky

The poetry is awesome, and the song is catchy. Great!

Amazing. Best thing I've heard from Watsky. Ever.

Watsky's work came into my life at a time when I wanted to take my own life, it entered the stage and always helps to brighten things up for me. Your one of the best.

i cant stop watching this, both the video and the song are increadable!

We need more poetry songs like this from Watsky!

Two words, and only those two words, can describe this: ABSOLUTE...BRILLIANCE

love your artwork marydoodles

This is so amazing, why doesn't it have more views!!?!?! Share this!!

So amazing!!! Just... Simply wow

What's better than an amazing artist? Amazing artists.

Dude every line of watsky's is so great, he mixes his humor and his serious tones so well.

"the scientists proved we're all going to die" hits differently now

WATSKY is what the world needs

That's really awesome. Even without the trademark speed, this was a really thoughtful piece. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, great song, and Mary Doodles' art just pushed it over the top. Great vid :)

In love with this entire album

Love it when my favorite artists come together. Weird how you guys live on the opposite coast but I'm driving around pumping watsky on my stereo, get home and catch some ERB, laughing to Monday shows and wishing I could buy every one of mary's definitive doodles, and you guys are all hanging out over there making more awesome stuff.

Can't wait until Feb. 1st! :D

I'm surprised you're able to be filled with that much talent and you haven't exploded yet.

I cannot wait for this album, it's gonna be amazing.

NicePeterToo sent me to TheJustdoArt, and from there I found my way over here. This is why I love RU-vid. I can find so many awesome things.

I don't know what's drawing me to you right now, but I think I'm gonna listen to all your music in the next couple days. I think I've grown a lot in the last years and I need to reconnect with the stuff I used to love. Hopin you come out with 'Intention' soon, but, more importantly, I hope you're doing well

so very awesome! Thanks Watsky!

I'd love to hear an EP or something just full of tracks/poems like this!

mary doodles and watsky omg u cant possibly go wrong here

Every time i hear this song... the first not instantly calms me. if im pissed this song is helpful. if im happy this makes me dance. if im tired this relaxes me. George you have made magic in my life and i thankyou for that, I cant tel you how inspiring you are. you're my hero, role model, big brother i never had you know what i mean...... ~~Shelby

Watsky's music is a real moving force in my life. i feel afraid sometimes but when i listen, it all goes away.

Love the music, love the singing, love the lyrics and love the drawing. Adding to favorites.

There is so much talent in this video I can't even stand it
