This man is a beast on the drums, please come back Gotye, your music has and continues to fuel my fire to help push through whatever life throws my way.
@@MelStaub Hi, brilliant thank you for responding. The interview will be posted here underneath this comment (sorry it's not talking but I'm a shy). If you could say at least 1-2 sentences per question that would be great. Thank you again
1. What is your favourite Gotye song? 2. What do you think of Gotye’s song ‘somebody that I used to know’? 3. Compared to the mostly pop-electronic music of 2011, do you think Gotye’s more alternative style helped him stand out in the charts? 4. Do you think the weirdness of the music video (compared to the bright lights of others) helped people remember the song, more? 5. What is your stance on an artist taking a break from making music to pursue his own passions? 6. Should old music be preserved, even if not many people know of the artist? 7. If you have an opinion, what is your opinion of Gotye’s secondary passion towards preserving the works of Jean-Jacques Perrey
I'm living with your memory In the attic in my mind And you've been getting by without me But I've been spending all my time With a girl that I remember Who'll never leave or need to grow 'cause when you left you left your memory Now it's the only thing I know When the past gives me no comfort And though the future is the cost The way I'm choosing to remember I'll forever be the man I never was And you, you fade But the memory remains the same And I, I can't change And I think that living with your memory Is slowly driving me insane You are perfect but you're empty And it gets so lonely in my mind 'cause your image in my memory's The only shred of you that's left behind You were real but then you left me And that's the part I can't accept So I'll keep on living with your memory Because it's all that I've got left
Gotye is one of my favorite artists. The way his music makes me feel is much more vivid than with other music. His song bronte made me cry like a waterfall and whenever I listen to somebody that I used to know i get goosebumps all over. His song 7 hours with a backseat driver makes my fantasy go on a journey full of comical and macabre things. His music videos are always very fitting too. I am full of anticipation for more of his interesting content.
I keep coming back to this song over and over again, year after year, for nearly a decade. And it gets me every damn time, everything about it, from the instrumental to the production, to the lyrics, all of it. Truly one of his best songs If not THE best.
***** Since when supporting gay people is the right thing to do ? Would you agree that your kid, may it even be unborn, yet, will watch, my pardons, stare, at a gay couple in the public, while they kiss ?! Two men? Be serious, what's going wrong with you, people ?!
Loved this song..Not sure why this is not so popular amongst Gotye songs .. ? Lyrics, music, singing everything perfect.. + emotions it generates.. This will always remain one of my fav songs. Gotye please come up with your next big album..Waiting for your Grammy .. !
I will always love this song! Heavy but light, complex but simple, emits great atmosphere and the sounds are really well thought out. I always find a new instrument listening to this. Yeah!
A DESOLATE PLACE (PLACE) WITHOUT ANY TRACE (TRACE) ITS ONLY THE COLD WIND I FEEL ITS ME THAT I SPITE AS I STAND UP AND FIGHT THE ONLY THING I KNOW FOR REAL
His greatest song. A haunted man, stuck with nothing but memories. “I can’t change/and I think that living with your memory/is slowly driving me insane.”
Gotye.. Why you stopped? You have a lot of talent.. you have little-piece-of time.. Gotye.. You *Saved me* , and i *Used to know you!*, And *The Only Thing I Know* Is that you are a great artist.. So please..You have a grate *State of Art*..You made my *Eyes Open* We want your voice..again.. and.. *What do you want?..
Goyte, you have amazing talent. Authentic taste in music and we'd all love you to keep going, despite the fact that you might not be getting noticed after your Somebody That I Used To Know, people still follow you, listen to your work. Sometimes, it's not necessary to get your work noticed but to keep doing what you love to. It might be hard, because I have no clue of it, we'd all be amazingly happy if you come back.
Memories broken The truth goes unspoken I’ve even forgotten my name I don’t know the season Or what is the reason I’m standing here holding my blade A desolate place Without any trace It’s only the cold wind I feel It’s me that I spite As I stand up and fight The only thing I know for real There will be blood-shed The man in the mirror nods his head The only one left Will ride upon the dragon’s back Because the mountains don’t give back what they take Oh no There will be blood-shed It’s the only thing I’ve ever known Losing my identity Wondering have I gone insane To find the truth in front of me I must climb this mountain range Looking downward from this deadly height And never realizing why I fight
+Jade Hernandez He went back to working with his band the Basics. They made an album. Gotye seems to be something he does while doing other things (e.g. the main sample from 'Eyes Wide Open' is from the Winton musical fence, and he went their while touring with the basics.)
This song is so great. Way better than somebody that I used to know in my modest oppinion. Gotye, please return, we need good music, now more than never.
I just heard this song while training in Jiu-Jitsu. My sensei loves music and has a lot on his phone. This song came on while during Randori. I had to find it right after class. I love this.
Gotye is now somebody that we used to know
+Sam Gautreau Yes he is :(
I see the same shitty comment on all of his videos
Richard Phist :V
What do you mean by that lol?
GET OUT
So underrated. He is so much more than just that one famous song of his.
This man is a beast on the drums, please come back Gotye, your music has and continues to fuel my fire to help push through whatever life throws my way.

@@HPotton Hey, is the article out? :)
I'm living with your memory
In the attic in my mind
And you've been getting by without me
But I've been spending all my time
With a girl that I remember
Who'll never leave or need to grow
'cause when you left you left your memory
Now it's the only thing I know
When the past gives me no comfort
And though the future is the cost
The way I'm choosing to remember
I'll forever be the man I never was
And you, you fade
But the memory remains the same
And I, I can't change
And I think that living with your memory
Is slowly driving me insane
You are perfect but you're empty
And it gets so lonely in my mind
'cause your image in my memory's
The only shred of you that's left behind
You were real but then you left me
And that's the part I can't accept
So I'll keep on living with your memory
Because it's all that I've got left
That's a poem I get, on more than one level. The downer is the rote harpiness that masks more interesting ideas, but still, I really think I get it!
Love u
wow, look at this lyrics… thank you btw
Yes....i get this song... wow. ty for lyrics, they be rocking me right now. 😥

Same. I heard it back in college. 2005. Takes me all the way back 😭
Lol some people don't realize it takes a while to write and record art. A lot of work goes into it. Love it :) you're great.
I'm sure it took a while for Miley Cyrus too, to write and record the disgusting excuse of art people call "Bangerz".
MrBukket Some people want to release art, others want to receive money as quickly as possible. Sad, ain't it?
MrBukket Bangerz is actually an okay album, it's just Miley's attitude that's trash.

Since when supporting gay people is the right thing to do ?

Massively underrated song. Wish more people knew of it!
haunting and beautiful
nostalgic
painful and addictive
what a masterpiece of a song...
I will always love this song! Heavy but light, complex but simple, emits great atmosphere and the sounds are really well thought out. I always find a new instrument listening to this. Yeah!
The lyrics sound so sad yet soothing, kind of like memories that are painful because of how good they were when you lived them
And you, you fade
But the memory remains the same
And I, I can't change
And I think
Living with your memory
Is slowly driving me insane
memory's broken, truth goes unspoken
i've even forgotten my naaaaaame!
I DON'T KNOW THE SEASON OR WHAT IS THE REASON I'M STANDING HERE HOLDING MY BLADE
A DESOLATE PLACE (PLACE) WITHOUT ANY TRACE (TRACE) ITS ONLY THE COLD WIND I FEEL
ITS ME THAT I SPITE AS I STAND UP AND FIGHT
THE ONLY THING I KNOW FOR REAL
This is a great song, one of my favorites on the album. Thanks for uploading it.
I saw gotye play this live. It was an honour to see him. After the gig i got to speak to him. Thanks gotye.
This is excellent...brilliant!!! Thank you so much for sharing this with us!!! Can't wait to buy the cd ;o)
Good news is you only have to wait about 8 years ago.

If you are here after all these years, you're a legend : )
Only finding this song now and lemme tell you, I'm fucking obsessed
I just fell in love with Gotye.
😳😳😳
Music that flows straight into my soul.
What a special intro ! Loved it ! Thank you !
Alright, second time listener here. The song gets better the more you listen to it!! I was bobbing my head the whole song. Amazing 👏
My favorite cut on the album. I love the horns, the drums and the guitar work.
BASS!!! AND THE BASS!!!!
I'm Still Listening To This Beautiful Music In 2019
His greatest song. A haunted man, stuck with nothing but memories. “I can’t change/and I think that living with your memory/is slowly driving me insane.”
awesome song , love it
Man!! The bass pattern in this is amazing.
Gotye.. Why you stopped? You have a lot of talent.. you have little-piece-of time.. Gotye.. You *Saved me* , and i *Used to know you!*, And *The Only Thing I Know* Is that you are a great artist.. So please..You have a grate *State of Art*..You made my *Eyes Open* We want your voice..again.. and.. *What do you want?..
Sean Muller I know he is on it.. but.. he is not showing his art as he does.. I am Trent..
Hear here!
+Kimberly Mehrer ..?
Now hes just somebody that you used to know...
*with*
this song is so futuristic but at the same time so nostalgic, damn
my favorite always!
Literally just found this 💙💙 this is beautiful! Love from 🏴
This was way ahead of its time. This song has aged so well with modern times 😍😍 so chill ❤️❤️🥀
Nice to know that your still around making good, old Australian music!
YOU ARE AWESOME ! keep up the good work
This is a true musician right here.

Authentic taste in music and we'd all love you to keep going, despite the fact that you might not be getting noticed after your Somebody That I Used To Know, people still follow you, listen to your work.

Hi, I am writing an article about Gotye and what fans think about his modern pursuits. Would you mind if I interviewed you for it?
How did I miss this treasure? Oh well, just happy to find some beautiful music! Have a great 2021 everyone 😊
You too :]
:D
Here is to a great 2022 soon!
This is lovely!!
there willl be blood, shed, the man in the mirror nods his head the only one, left
Trying to do homework while listening to Gotye.... Its actually too good to focus on the HW... Its so easy to get lost in this music! LOVE it :)
its fascinating how quality music cant let you focus on anything else (at least thats my case)
wow. i never suspected this song would be so relateable to me. thanks.
I'm a new fan and this is freaking amazing ... I like gotye's voice
This could be a Depeche Mode song, good song!
Poi
I'm totally agree ...it sounds like a depeche mode song
I think it's like the lower version of The Cure's Disintegration.
thats what I was thinking back in the days, I lot of their songs reminded me of Depeche... which is, in my universe, high level praise
I’ll bump this forever
Memories broken
The truth goes unspoken
I’ve even forgotten my name
I don’t know the season
Or what is the reason
I’m standing here holding my blade
A desolate place
Without any trace
It’s only the cold wind I feel
It’s me that I spite
As I stand up and fight
The only thing I know for real
There will be blood-shed
The man in the mirror nods his head
The only one left
Will ride upon the dragon’s back
Because the mountains don’t give back what they take
Oh no
There will be blood-shed
It’s the only thing I’ve ever known
Losing my identity
Wondering have I gone insane
To find the truth in front of me
I must climb this mountain range
Looking downward from this deadly height
And never realizing why I fight
MEMORIES BROKEN
STANDING HERE
RED SUN
AND IT WILL COME
thanks for the lyrics
Love this....and yep, could def be a Depeche song, all the better to adore it ~
This is absolutely amazing.
First time listener here. This is gold!!! I think this is Better than your most popular! The drums are so intricate
Goyte why have you stopped making music videos? Are you going to be the next Adele? wait 4 years and come up with something BRILLIANT?
So are the great artists, I think they spend too much time on their works.
+Jade Hernandez he usually waits a few years between albums, he started 15 years ago and he has only got 3 albums
+Jade Hernandez He went back to working with his band the Basics. They made an album. Gotye seems to be something he does while doing other things (e.g. the main sample from 'Eyes Wide Open' is from the Winton musical fence, and he went their while touring with the basics.)
Gotye was under depression while production of the 'making mirrors' album.
I don't know when he'll return
+Cant think of a name right now Art inspired by ones suffering is the best kind of art wouldn't you agree?
I listened to this song all shroomed out and my God was it an experience
This is a masterpiece
OMGOTYE, I love it!
This slaps👏🏽
2021 n I’m by here
I have full body goosebumps.
Essa música é tão boa, deveria estar no spotify...
1:13 - me cleaning my tongue
Thank you for the commercial-free music!
2021 please come back we need you 😭😭😭
This is one of my favorites of his. I really wish he would come out with another album of his own!
This song is so great. Way better than somebody that I used to know in my modest oppinion. Gotye, please return, we need good music, now more than never.
gotye is still producing music with his band, The Basics! :D
I am astonished my this one, I now love gotye 100%
MEMORIES BROKEN
THE TRUTH GOES UNSPOKEN
one of the best of the best of gotye
I love his voice specially when he sing somebody I use to know
And his creativity
Keep making music! A very underrated artist, who does not deserve to remain a one-hit wonder.
Love it!
Once the one of the best song makers now just somebody that we used to know
Reminds me of The Cure, or yes, Depeche Mode. Awesome.
I just heard this song while training in Jiu-Jitsu. My sensei loves music and has a lot on his phone. This song came on while during Randori. I had to find it right after class. I love this.

I loved this album when it came out but damn as a word lover this whole song is incredible. "Living with your memory is slowly driving me insane" 😭💔
This song is amazing.
