"You can listen to these songs,
have a good time,
and walk away.
but for me, It's not that easy.
I have to live these songs forever.."

>>72501471
id never do it but IF i did id do it to peek a boo or despair came knocking

Nothing moves me more than walking the cow. I feel as though no other song can make me feel any closer to his confused, paranoid, fragile mind than that one. I hope Daniel is doing well these days.

>>72501696
He has an unparalleled ability to give you insight into his mind. His art is the most perfect distillation of a persons essence that i know of.

>>72501629
That's a great line.

>>72501471
Don't kill yourself man. I know life sucks, but hang in there. It can't suck all of the time.

This is one of the best covers of his songs. what are your guys favorite covers?

>>72501471
Oh, this is life. This is life, and everything's alright.

It has to be this just based on how much I relate to it

>>72502282
Oh yes! That is one of very favorites... Although i can say that about almost all of his songs.

For serious guys. Listen to this cover of Loner. It is the best.

"Drove those demons out of my head with an organ and a pencil full of lead, and when i'm dead, like to have it said. 'He drove those demons out of his head'"

"We don't need reason, and we don't need logic, cause we got feeling, and we're dang proud of it."

here's a beach house cover of a danny j song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MlgkEjrdR9c

>>72502462
goddamn

>>72502492
I've not heard the original of that song yet. I am very methodically going through all of his albums chronologically. I'm on Respect.

>>72502519
oh how nice
the songs of pain album are the best. the song i posted is on 1990

>>72502553
I've been a fan for years, you would think i would be farther. It's not for lack of listening to him. I listen to him all of the time.

This song is fucking incredible. I think Yip/Jump Music is my favorite of his albums.

>>72502587
i completely understand ive only listened to a few albums and ive been listening to him since 2013

>>72502635
lol nice. They are all so worth listening to a hundred, or more times.

Did anybody watch Where The Wild Things Are? They had a cover of Worried Shoes in that movie. I was so delightfully surprised by that.

>>72502683
film looks comfy, would watch
ive watched a few films from the same director too

>>72502699
Yeah. Spike Jonze is cool in my book. Her was pretty great.

Because someone's already mentioned my song already

i don't have much to add but this is a good thread,

my second most played danny j song:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4i4iGk5AhY

>>72502718
i like that film, have u seen lost in translation? they supposedly are connected with each other

>>72502727
This is a good choice. Which song were you going to post?

>>72502735
His relationship with his mother is so sad. For both of them. She didn't know what was wrong or how to help so she yelled at him. I relate to that so much.

>>72502749
Another great song. I have not seen that. I hear it's good. I should probably check it out eventually.

I've always been amazed with Daniel's song writing gift. It's just a man with a piano/guitar, but every one of his songs is so unique and different than the others, and every single one is beautiful.

This song. This fucking song!

>say "i love you danny"

>>72502943
"She said she didn't really love me. Not like she loved him. And she treated me nice, and she treated me kind, and i never will forgive her for that."

>>72503025
it hurts

Did you guys catch the Kathy McCarty cover of Rocket Ship on Futurama?

>>72503215
thats the girl in the documentary right? glass eye? i've watched all the seasons of futurama but i dont recall that scene

>>72501051
Always seen this guys name, never looked into him. Liking that first song, will have to check out some other stuff.

>>72503250
Yep, that's her. Dead Dogs Eyeball is a cover album of all his stuff by her, which is really good. I think it was in one of the movies.

>>72503293
Trust me dude. It's a rabbit hole you'll want to go down.

>>72502253
this was good

>>72503293
Check out the documentary 'the devil and daniel johnston' for some context

>>72503320
