  • The Flaming Lips paid a fitting tribute to singer-songwriter Daniel Johnston with a cover of his song "True Love Will Find You In The End", performed at Sydney Opera House performance on 1 October 2019.
    Wayne Coyne said: "This next song is a really beautiful song that the songwriter Daniel Johnston wrote. He unexpectedly died of a heart attack, I guess it's been a couple of weeks now.
    "He himself struggled with manic depression and schizophrenia and yet in his music, he was hoping you could do it, that you could overcome the things that were troubling you - the faults you see in yourself.
    "Sometimes loneliest people in the world, the people that need the most help in the world, they’re the last people to ask for it. And even if you offer it to them, I think sometimes they’re the last people that will fucking take it. It can be very frustrating, but I think this gentle song is our key - I think that's what Daniel is saying."

    So many artists cover this song because it is a truly beautiful expression of humanity's strength and fragility . Sleep well Mr. Johnston.

    One of the greatest songs performed by one of my favourite bands. My wife and I were at this concert about 4 weeks after my mother died. It was every bit of the healing that we needed at that moment. This is one of my most treasured memories, thank you for posting this.

    🙏 they play this song. I’m back home visiting my terminally ill Uncle/Godfather. We had been stranger for more than 25 years. We have reconciled and spent time together and this song is so meaningful to me at this time. Wayne. If your “listening”,……please! Thursday night in Montclair, NJ ….. 🙏🙏🤙🤙

      In the words of Tenacious D, this is a tribute. Outsider music doesn’t always have to be rusty and broken, especially renditions from other bands. They’re putting their touch on it and as a mega fan of the original I’m happy and proud they did.
