Hey i was wondering if I could use your songs in my videos without having trouble with you? I really like your music and I love listening to it while playing but I also want to add it in my vids so other people can enjoy it too ... so what do you say? sorry for this long message :l
Saw him live in Houston, and this song is my anthem... I am sure it's a common thing to be said but, when you are raised to be never enough. It stays with you.
My 4yr old and my 6yr old both have said this is their favorite song. They listen to it on repeat and watch the video!!! Glad we can enjoy amazing music together!!!
"I'm not satisfied, it's all or nothing, there's no peace of mind for me, and even though I try, my greedy heart is hungry, I'm not satisfied, you see?" This goes right through my soul...
It's been awhile since I've listened to aesthetic perfection but last night and the last part of my dream I heard the song playing very clearly. So I guess congratulations you've made it into a man's subconscious as a reply from himself to himself on how he's doing
This guy just blows me away! He has such a disarming and honest talent! This song is very good.....his voice suits it perfectly! I am loving this video!!! 🖤🖤

His songwriting is really top notch. I love his songs come together, no conflicts in rhythm it just fits very well.
Daniel Graves, you inspire me more than an artist has in a long time. I'm teaching myself music production, and I'm easing into trying to produce dark electronic music like this...but I always felt like i'd never be able to break into the scene for one reason or another. Then I find this video, and find more work by you, and realize things are different: 1: You're one guy! You do the vocals and production, as far as I can tell, all alone. Normally dark electronic acts seem to be duos or larger bands, but you've got all the talent. It's possible to do something this fantastic alone. 2: You're american! Most dark electronic acts seem to be based in europe, to the point where I wasn't sure it was possible for an american to do it. But clearly, you were able to, and you're pretty huge. 3: You didn't have to stick to a specific sound...you were able to evolve, and continue to evolve. I find this awesome. Those may sound weird, but you knocked down many of the false mental blocks I had in pursuing this...thank you.
This is definitely my favorite song of yours AP. The flow of the song and the up-beat interludes are really enjoyable to listen to. One thing in particular is your body language. The way you use your hands and arms, your eyes, your entire body, and other expressions to stress highs and lows of the instruments and lyrics is very endearing, and rather unlike other musicians' body language. You have an exceptionally original musical persona that really isn't exhibited with anyone else. I hope you're able to create more music and videos like this one.
I'm totally addicted to this song, and I can listen to it for hours without getting tired. Actually, working while listening to it is very relaxing and uplifting.
I love that you express yourself with various sounds and aren't afraid of trying new things. I'm a fan of every bit of your work and the evolution of your sound. As an artist (though not a musical one) I understand that everyone expresses emotions in different ways that are often not interpreted the same by an audience. Frustrating as it may be (haters are gonna hate), I'm glad you keep pushing through the fire and rise above. Never stop expressing yourself as you see fit. You are major motivation and inspiration for me!
You are the best. You'll never be satisfied if you keep getting better and better! it's been an honor to watch you blossom as a musician and lyricist from Necessary Response to Now. You always know how to put those strange feelings of being lost and not sure into words. Thank you. Your music is healing.
I recall when this first came out, and I like a great number of others bitched and moaned about its not like, a Violent Emotion, I am sooooooo glad to say as I have gotten older and grown, this may be my fave song you ever did Daniel , thank you we don't deserve you,.
one of the defining moments of my life was realizing my depression wasn't something to cure but to manage. Feeling something was wrong with me I needed to get rid of was the worst, especially cause I constantly failed at it. knowing now that it is just a part of me makes things better it took a weight off. I could live a thousand lives but without this struggle I would not be me. Even if that's not your intent that is what I hear so thank you.
sadly to often in my life i didnt realise i was happy until i was watching the ashes fall away between my fingers.. so all to well i feel this song deeply. thank you again for another epic tune and another way to flip off youtube's broken junk lol. keep up the excellent work!
I'm not disappointed in you, guys. Not again. This is something different than the previous works, yet i still can hear some parts from the A violent emiton era. Great work, keep up the good stuff.
OMG I LOVE AESTHETIC PERFECTION SO MUCH!!!!!! I love this album with a passion and I'm so happy the music is still going!! I have been a fan for so long and as a musician myself that loves industrial music, I want to work side by side with them to create a new deep dark sound!!! Much love from SEATTLE !
Right at about 1:32-1:40, the transition where he goes from the small hat dude with glasses to the wide brimmed hat dude with the chevron on his face is f*cking flawless. I love how he practically pulls you in from the screen and then right on that -thump- he transforms from one guy to the other and the song flows on. Very well done, just awesome!
I really think it's amazing. I especially love that this song perfectly sums up why I'm a fan; you're never satisfied. Your voice has come so far since when you first released Close to Human... though I suppose it has been 10 years. I've probably seen you guys at least five times over the years, and each time you are better. And it's not just your voice, each release is more artistically mature than the last. There are few acts that can say that. You age like a fine wine, Mr. Graves. Keep it up.

yaaaayyyyy!!!!!!! please tour on North America soon!!!!!
I was so happy that I met you at the Amphi 2016 and I'm looking forward to Amphi 2018... your music is everything I have atm and it drives me to keep going on, thanks for that life saver ♥
I sweep across the land in vain, Like locust swarming in the breeze, I want for nothing yet I keep, Exercising futility. Success is ashes on my tongue, Remain unhappy though I'm loved, I know I'm foolish and I'm young, But can't you see it's not enough? I'm not satisfied, It's all or nothing, There's no peace of mind for me, And even though I try, My greedy heart is hungry, I'm not satisfied, You see? I've seen much more than most could hope, Accomplished dreams and traveled roads, Through all my lovers I have grown, Just not enough to make a home, There's no religion there's no god, Who'll fill this emptiness I've got, What good's belief when it is wrong? Just gimme more because I'm not! I'm not satisfied, It's all or nothing, There's no peace of mind for me, And even though I try, My greedy heart is hungry, I'm not satisfied, You see? I'm not satisfied, I'm lost and empty, There's no reason why, You see? And I could live a thousand lives, And I know I won't be happy, I'm not satisfied with me.
Aesthetically (no pun intended) effective with few materials and very good video editing. As for the song itself, I love this pop melodies; I had the chance to see a live performance of this song last August in Manchester and, despite Daniel's bad shape for that specific show, he managed to make it way more intense and aggressive. Congratulations once again for a great song. Looking forward to the new album.
From the first time I heard the song until today the lyrics resonate true with me. Even in a thousand lives I'll never be happy because I've never satisfied with myself.
He....who seeks for mental enlightenment.....has to be greedy for clues to reflect on. Greedy for reflection. Thanks for your reflection! We can rest in mental peace on earth when we are all through with understanding this world we live in. Black hole magic within. Scattering the light aka clues, making understanding.
It doesnt matter how much there is but how much is enough. In terms of life is better to feel a little hunger than full, cos when you are full you have nothing else to fight for. Desire makes the blood go round.
Boom. Over 100k plays. Thanks so much!
You Welcome xD
Tapping my foot hard on a tram in Melbourne. Thanks! ;)
Hey i was wondering if I could use your songs in my videos without having trouble with you?
I really like your music and I love listening to it while playing but I also want to add it in my vids so other people can enjoy it too ...
so what do you say?
sorry for this long message :l
Lars Rau Sure as long as you don't monetize it it's totally fine.
Close to Human Music great thanks!
My dad use to listen to this, I remembered it but couldn't remember who it was by, so happy I found it ❤️❤️❤️
Saw him live in Houston, and this song is my anthem... I am sure it's a common thing to be said but, when you are raised to be never enough. It stays with you.
I'm always coming back to this song. Perfect mix of pop, industrial and cyberpunk.
Ein song der mein ganzes Leben beschreibt 😊😊😊😊
My 4yr old and my 6yr old both have said this is their favorite song. They listen to it on repeat and watch the video!!! Glad we can enjoy amazing music together!!!
Kaye Cardoza my 5 and 2.5 yr old, too!
This song even years later with soo many good things that have happened... This is still LIFE for me
This sound still hits right
This song got stuck in my head since yesterdays concert. Great song and great performance.
"I'm not satisfied, it's all or nothing,
there's no peace of mind for me,
and even though I try, my greedy heart is hungry,
I'm not satisfied, you see?"
This goes right through my soul...
Relatable as fuck
❤
6 years to the day with a awesome song and a bad ass producer!!!
It's been awhile since I've listened to aesthetic perfection but last night and the last part of my dream I heard the song playing very clearly. So I guess congratulations you've made it into a man's subconscious as a reply from himself to himself on how he's doing
I’ve felt this way my whole life and I’m 51. But there is only so much I can do…here’s to hoping we both can find our balance 🖤🥀
This guy just blows me away! He has such a disarming and honest talent! This song is very good.....his voice suits it perfectly! I am loving this video!!! 🖤🖤
His songwriting is really top notch. I love his songs come together, no conflicts in rhythm it just fits very well.

+JMSOG Thanks man. Just go for it. If you don't try you don't know. Best of luck!
+Close to Human Music lover your style would love to collab with you
+JMSOG Check Celldweller and Blue Stahli there is more solo project than you think :D
You can do it bro! I believe in you, listen to your heart :)
Did you do it?
Very good track. Same for the clip.

This has become one of my favorite songs, and has become my anthem to motivate myself to strive for more in life!
That's a wonderful and humbling comment, Dalton. Thank you!
Right. He has made me want to be a better person
Wow glad to see that band after 20 years :) Got it in my head now, Great video and song :) Cheers!
I love these lyrics, Daniel. Your music always speaks to me.
I just found this band, and I gotta say, I'm on love with this song.
Aesthetic Perfection changes style a lot. Like his early stuff is pretty heavy compared to this.
Amazeballs! I love this new track.
Can't get enough of this song. LOVE IT!
I'm totally addicted to this song, and I can listen to it for hours without getting tired. Actually, working while listening to it is very relaxing and uplifting.
my favorite song on youtube

Very good...no, awesome.
Can never get enough of Aesthetic Perfection, Celldweller, or Combichrist
Same. 🖤

best playlist ever.
You are the best. You'll never be satisfied if you keep getting better and better! it's been an honor to watch you blossom as a musician and lyricist from Necessary Response to Now. You always know how to put those strange feelings of being lost and not sure into words. Thank you. Your music is healing.
+yeiasoumanga Thank you! It's words like yours that motivate me to keep doing this crazy music thing...
Close to Human Music
Je viens de découvrir ce groupe au concert de till lindermann le 1er Octobre à New york c'était juste énorme merci merci merci love
🖤🖤🖤
There's a reason this has been played and shared so much! It's badass! It speaks to MANY! Never Enough of the video!
I recall when this first came out, and I like a great number of others bitched and moaned about its not like, a Violent Emotion, I am sooooooo glad to say as I have gotten older and grown, this may be my fave song you ever did Daniel , thank you we don't deserve you,.
I stand by this comment. thank you Daniel
It's the best for those like us.
Never enough...i can´t stop play your song again and again..i love your music and this song is fantastic..
i cannot believe this song is 8 years, wth. time is fn nuts!
Just wait. The older you get the faster it goes by.
Keep finding myself coming back to this song for another watch. This is a bop.
I just noticed how majority of my favorite songs are by these guys, can't believe I saw the show in Dallas recently. It was amazing!!
This just gives me chills all over. Great song
This is how I feel so much and I love how it shows the anguish but is not a down song. It is poppy but heart-full. Ugh I love this song beyond words.
one of the defining moments of my life was realizing my depression wasn't something to cure but to manage. Feeling something was wrong with me I needed to get rid of was the worst, especially cause I constantly failed at it. knowing now that it is just a part of me makes things better it took a weight off. I could live a thousand lives but without this struggle I would not be me. Even if that's not your intent that is what I hear so thank you.
It’s almost criminal that this band doesn’t have far far more views... I’m only sad it’s taken me so long to find it.
sadly to often in my life i didnt realise i was happy until i was watching the ashes fall away between my fingers.. so all to well i feel this song deeply. thank you again for another epic tune and another way to flip off youtube's broken junk lol. keep up the excellent work!
Jfc I can't stop listening to this song
its kinda difficult to choose your fighter in this character select menu with all the quick cuts
pick the Daniel with sideburns.
+fyiicheckforspies if these skins come standard i might pre-order
+fyiicheckforspies It looks like each one has different move sets, so I guess we have to factor that into our selection too
+fyiicheckforspies don't they let u select how you want the character to appear as, i know they do that in most fighters
+fyiicheckforspies this is my favorite sequence of comments on this video.
We spoke at your London gig. You're a genuinely decent guy. Really loved your live set. Thank you.
I love the “Woo ooh ooh”. Eargasm every time!
never enough, never enough
One of my favorite songs that speaks to me on a very deep level. The restless life is an exhausting one.
Still jamming to this in 2023…such a great song! 🤘💚🌘
Awesome!!
great stuff!
So satisfied I found this artist.He is unique and real.Thank you Daniel Graves
Great song to sing to. Loved your older stuff but don't mind this newer stuff either.
Yes!! New music from my favourite band! Love this! (I also really like the "whoas").
This is one of the greatest songs I've heard this year, and by far the best electronic music.
Coming back to this track I actually think it was maybe a little ahead of its time. I think we've leaned more into this style and sound since 2015.
I'm not disappointed in you, guys. Not again. This is something different than the previous works, yet i still can hear some parts from the A violent emiton era. Great work, keep up the good stuff.
The song that introduced me to AP, and started me out on more electronic music.
This is the first song of yours I listened to. This will always be my favorite.
This is my favorite song, but i love all music of your album.
OMG I LOVE AESTHETIC PERFECTION SO MUCH!!!!!! I love this album with a passion and I'm so happy the music is still going!! I have been a fan for so long and as a musician myself that loves industrial music, I want to work side by side with them to create a new deep dark sound!!! Much love from SEATTLE !

Still very addicted to this song since it came out. I'm still addicted to the last album too.

I was so happy that I met you at the Amphi 2016 and I'm looking forward to Amphi 2018...
your music is everything I have atm and it drives me to keep going on, thanks for that life saver ♥
I don't know how I ever missed this video. Daniel you have the most unique style to your music videos. This one is by far one of my favs!
I absolutely love this song. I love how different it is to their usual stuff and how completely I can relate.
wow awesome music really digging it..
I sweep across the land in vain,
Like locust swarming in the breeze,
I want for nothing yet I keep,
Exercising futility.
Success is ashes on my tongue,
Remain unhappy though I'm loved,
I know I'm foolish and I'm young,
But can't you see it's not enough?
I'm not satisfied,
It's all or nothing,
There's no peace of mind for me,
And even though I try,
My greedy heart is hungry,
I'm not satisfied,
You see?
I've seen much more than most could hope,
Accomplished dreams and traveled roads,
Through all my lovers I have grown,
Just not enough to make a home,
There's no religion there's no god,
Who'll fill this emptiness I've got,
What good's belief when it is wrong?
Just gimme more because I'm not!
I'm not satisfied,
It's all or nothing,
There's no peace of mind for me,
And even though I try,
My greedy heart is hungry,
I'm not satisfied,
You see?
I'm not satisfied,
I'm lost and empty,
There's no reason why,
You see?
And I could live a thousand lives,
And I know I won't be happy,
I'm not satisfied with me.
Aesthetically (no pun intended) effective with few materials and very good video editing. As for the song itself, I love this pop melodies; I had the chance to see a live performance of this song last August in Manchester and, despite Daniel's bad shape for that specific show, he managed to make it way more intense and aggressive.

From the first time I heard the song until today the lyrics resonate true with me. Even in a thousand lives I'll never be happy because I've never satisfied with myself.
Magnifico trabajo.
just great
Combi Christ and Aesthetic Perfection are my main jams.
totally feel this way. grew with every lover.
This speaks to me on a deep level.
I LOVE it!
Can't wait to hear the new album!
He....who seeks for mental enlightenment.....has to be greedy for clues to reflect on. Greedy for reflection. Thanks for your reflection! We can rest in mental peace on earth when we are all through with understanding this world we live in. Black hole magic within. Scattering the light aka clues, making understanding.
Great amazing underrated song 😍
damn Daniel, u have some great music!
Thank you!
ur welcome
I have listened to this song on repeat about 20 times now! Can't wait for the release. Oh and I personally love the backing "whoah" vocals. 💜💜💜
still his best song
By far my favorite song of yours!
The world needs us [the creators] to elucidate the ambiguous nature of existence. You are loved and respected.
So truth be told this song got me into AP. Definitely my most favorite song.
how fucking good is this and why has it taken me ages to unleash this power awesome
I love Daniel in the hoodie. I love this song so much. ❤
It doesnt matter how much there is but how much is enough. In terms of life is better to feel a little hunger than full, cos when you are full you have nothing else to fight for. Desire makes the blood go round.
Amazing song! VERY relate-able!
I love this song, the lyrics and how you can interpret it!!! Thankyou for always being a source of my inspiration,
