This music video gives me goosebumps every time.
this album is incredible
An amazing song from an amazing album.
god I cant stop listening to this song such a great artist and so weird at the same time love it!!
" I dreamed of her inside of me"
I dig this. I stumbled upon this by accident!! This blues track has garnered Bonnie 'Prince' Billy a new fan.
This album helped me a lot as my father died.
True and deep.
Just a day in touch with mr. Oldham, and it's as if I know this music for a century. It doesn't get any better than this
Musicians tend to have their "golden years" in the beginning of their career. But Bonnie has resurfaced and reinvented himself. A rare talent, and i am eager to hear more of this.
He is fucking amazing. I love how this video juxtaposes it's funniest image, him wrestling with ET, with it's saddest, the dead bird.
This is the first I've heard of him and..................WOW. Just...........WOW. Goosebumps, breathless, speechless, Lanegan, and MORE!!!
I can't possibly begin to say how much i love both this song and this video...
I saw BpB on the Roskilde Festival, Denmark. I was really looking forward to this concert, but the sound was so bad that I left half way through the show... I still love this song and this album.
This gives me shivers
Fantasic.. The new album is right up there with 'I see a darkness'
such a beautiful video should be re-released in HD quality. Actually, I wish there was a DVD of his best videos! I'd buy it.
one of my favorite songs of his
mr prince billy, your music amazes me
One of the best concepts for a video I have ever seen- a true story- inspiring.
Very promising, hope the new Album is up to this level!
This guy was great in The Guatemalan Handshake. The look on his face when his girlfriend threw his pet turtle into a canyon was too precious. Too precious.
Wow ! I could replay this forever
What shall I say but amazing. Guess there is no word in any language to describe the charm of his voice and his work.
I saw him perform this with Harem Scarem a few months back and it was phenomenal live.
this song is god-like
No this song = above all and Transcendent heavenly!
wow i've heard a lot about these guys but this is the first time i'm listening and they are sweet
one of the greatest musicians i ever listen to - and let me tell you - i have had listen to a lot of
What an ace atmospheric song...So cool :)
Only just discovered this guy and his music (because of the film This Must Be The Place).
Must say I LOVE the stuff I've heard so far. This song's just great and his voice is wonderful
Beautiful song!! Thanks Simon!!
Awsome! the purest music in soo long
Will Oldham is among the few musicians putting out talented, accomplished music these days.
Wonderful images serving an alegory standing for the human being coming to life. symbols show this raising of a new born, from out of nowhere, an innocent soul appearing one day. we're alive into particular unchosen circumstances, places & people who set off our surroundings, in time we learn, discover all the joyful & hurtful aspects that come along living among them. always tied to mysteries of love, longing, still ruined by envy, misundestandin
beatiful music.astonishing artist.
love you will, hope you have a great christmas mr oldham you rock my world
What a rare and beautiful artist this man is. I'm buying that CD today. Thanks for posting. I have two other Cd's of his - "Ease Down the Road" and "I See a Darkness". Check them out if you don't know them, they're both brilliant.
Thanks for this! Can't wait for the album to be released.
I love this
I just don´t care about the video... the song it´s just amazing and blows my mind...what else do i want? :)
love this song
I love the song! 5 stars!!!
I care a shit about the video... the song just blows my mind.
goosebumps ...
Living behind the Sun,.. polarizing my Louisiana fever dreams, kicking junk, dangling by the old played out umbilical noose.
tremendously beautiful
Brilliant lyrics
He does rock hard live, I just saw him in Urbana
There is no "Band" or "These Guys". This is, and has always been, the songs of one guy.
nice song
I have no words...This is insanely gorgeous...Thanks to a friend for introducing my to bpb.
I love you Bonnie Prince Billy.
Bonnie Prince Johnny
Be calm, be kind to other people - yes ate,
In the words of Biffy Clyro "Will Oldham's In the Corner Moaning Can't You Write Your Own Lines" LONG LIVE THE PRINCE
Hope September is coming soon
wow great cameo from Stone Cold ET!
another fav
Trippy
Powerful stuff
amazing
50 million bones. awesome.
beautiful
Beautiful. :)
Great! Greetings from Norway.
Very well done! Evocative.
yeaa
All answers could be found in Sigmund Freud's notoriously overwrought "Interpretation of Dreams" or you could just go with the line from Goethe's "Faust": "The feeling is everything, name is but noise and smoke."
so your a louisville native as well i assume? just saw him at the red mile barn in lex am month ago...FANTASTIC!!
Why does our bonnie prince take his shirt off all the time? I'm not complaining, mind you...wish he'd just keep it off for awhile.
Heart-stoppingly (is that a word?) beautiful video.
Long live Oldham. Long live our Bonnie Prince Billy.
@frankensteinmoneymac WOW mabey madelynnwin (comment above) is Madelein- Mary from the great Bonnie Prince Billy song!!!
Capo 2nd fret
Em F#m (or 044200 sounds good) Gm (again 055000)
Bm A G F#m E
That's about it roughly.
apparently will comes into the record store where i work on occasion (in Louisville).
Good comment!!
brilliant.
I'd like to hear the dude with the falcon sing - he looks like a real badass.
genial!!!
E.T!
6 music
Thanks, again, for the info. Cheers \m/
really strong
i assume it was probably shot near Louisville, KY, where he lives
No, I haven't heard that. I'll definitely have to check that one out!!! Sorry it took so long to get back to you!?!?!? I'm not too hip on how the whole "COMMENTING" thing works on You Tube. But yeah, thanks for the tip. I'm ALWAYS looking for new vinyl to pick up :]
cheers mate
@madelynnwin I dont know why....but I found it really funny that simply stating the fact that Oldham went to your High School generated 18 (so far) Thumbs up! LOL!!....Eh...what the Hell, I'll make it 19! I'd be proud of the fact that he went to my H.S. too!
mola! :)
hola!!!! will vonito video me impreciona lo lo q ace soy julio de El Salvador
i first heard this song on an oddball channel on sirius. i was like whoa.
@oliviamaet I wish i could get shivers from this..
Not sure how many copies were made, but I think it was either 400-500, maybe less... Probably find it on ebay anyhooo...
Cost me about £5 and I got it about 2 or 3 years ago, and I think even then it had been released 2 to 3 years previous to then.
I liked the ghillie suit but ET scared me.
@madelynnwin Mabey you ARE Madelein- Mary great Bonnie Prince Billy song!!! Wow. I bet he wrote it for you!
niceeeeeeeeeeeee
If you're referring to 'Chicago', that song came out before this did.
oh come on your just Irish arnt ya jk you are 100% right my friend
sounds like sufjan stevens took a few pages out of prince billy's book.
i was laughing at this mans beard last night. now im cherishing that fact that i found it.
Fucking good
louisville.
@chad7chad1 Have you heard BPB doing Mark Lanegan's track - "Sunrise"? It was released as a 7" by Soul Savers... Mark Lanegan sings a BPB song on the other side... unfortunately, I don't think it's on youtube at the moment... Mark Lanegan / Screaming Trees is/are my favourite singer/band... =O)
does anyone know where this is filmed? it looks southern, like Shenandoah valley or somewhere in Virginia or Kentucky. Maybe even NC?
I saw that while eating lunch and nearly threw up.
it would be cool if he toured with phosphorescent
When the heck is Will going to tour in the US again?
I personally was more into the super dark Bonnie Prince Billy on I See a Darkness - if you're into that sort of thing, check out Rodeoclash, there are a few videos on UA-cam.
wish dawn was in this vid
